[00:28] ---
    Ericht! Please! Don't do this!
[00:32] ---
    Then don't get in Mom's way.
[00:35] ---
    This is all for Ericht's sake...
[00:39] ---
    so why did you come here?
[00:41] ---
    Go back to the school with your friends.
[00:44] ---
    This is a matter for those of us
    who can only live inside the data storm.
[00:49] ---
    So, Suletta...
[00:51] ---
    You must give up.
[00:54] ---
    No!
[00:55] ---
    I can't turn a blind eye to you guys!
[01:00] ---
    You're so stubborn, Suletta.
[01:10] ---
    Stop it, Lauda!
[01:12] ---
    Why are you trying to attack that ship?!
[01:15] ---
    What about you, Brother...
[01:16] ---
    Why are you by that woman's side?
[01:19] ---
    Lauda?
[01:22] ---
    If Miorine hadn't brought Gundams
    back into the world,
[01:25] ---
    Petra wouldn't have...!
[01:34] ---
    Why the heck is Lauda attacking us?!
[01:36] ---
    How should I know?!
[01:39] ---
    Ms. Felsi!
[01:41] ---
    We'll be caught up in the mess.
[01:43] ---
    Nika! Chuchu!
[01:44] ---
    Roger!
[01:44] ---
    Let's go, Demi Barding!
[01:54] ---
    Permet communications will be useless
    within data storm space.
[01:58] ---
    Change to optical wireless communications.
[02:01] ---
    Right... Demi Barding,
    now terminating Permet link.
[02:15] ---
    We're gonna die!
[02:17] ---
    We're all gonna die!
[02:19] ---
    Mommy!
[02:24] ---
    S-Sorry, everybody!
[02:26] ---
    Is piloting without Permet
    really this hard?!
[02:34] ---
    Is this... the data storm?
[02:38] ---
    This sensation is so unpleasant.
[02:41] ---
    Hurry up and get us to Quiet Zero!
[02:44] ---
    Who put you in charge, loudmouth!
SIGN    Episode 23
[04:30] ---
    Don't!
[04:31] ---
    The Schwarzette...
    the Gundam will take your life!
[04:34] ---
    Then why don't you stop me by killing me?
[04:38] ---
    Just like Dad?!
[04:41] ---
    Answer me, Brother!
[04:43] ---
    Why didn't you tell me about Dad?
[04:46] ---
    Was it out of guilt?
[04:49] ---
    Or did you think
    I couldn't bear the burden?
[04:56] ---
    Am I really that undependable?
[04:59] ---
    That's not it.
[05:01] ---
    What happened to Dad was my sin alone.
[05:03] ---
    I'm the one who should bear it all!
[05:07] ---
    That's what's wrong with you, Brother...
[05:12] ---
    That's how Miorine takes advantage
    of you, and why you cling to her!
[05:20] ---
    That righteousness... That arrogance...
[05:24] ---
    That's your sin!
[05:35] ---
    A small craft is approaching.
[05:37] ---
    It has a Benerit Group registration code.
[05:39] ---
    It's emitting a communication signal.
[05:41] ---
    It's alone?
[05:43] ---
    I'll talk to them.
[05:46] ---
    This is Guston Parche,
    a Space Assembly League inspector.
[05:49] ---
    I'd like to speak to operation HQ.
[05:51] ---
    What can an inspector do
    in this situation?
[05:55] ---
    The corporate governance
    is still intact with our group.
[06:01] ---
    Delling Rembran?
[06:04] ---
    In accordance with the League Charter,
[06:07] ---
    we request the convening
    of an emergency special session.
[06:11] ---
    A special session?
[06:14] ---
    Have all members
    send their representatives
[06:17] ---
    and reconsider if it was justifiable
    to intervene in our group's affairs.
[06:26] ---
    Mr. President...
[06:27] ---
    I'm grateful... for your cooperation.
[06:39] ---
    Stand down, Suletta.
[06:41] ---
    I don't want to hurt you.
[06:47] ---
    Neither... do I!
[06:50] ---
    Then don't stop us.
[06:52] ---
    Mom wants Eri to...
    have a place in the world.
[06:58] ---
    Is it okay to gobble up
    all these fronts for that goal?
[07:02] ---
    To take lives?!
[07:04] ---
    Eri wouldn't do that.
[07:07] ---
    But if they get in our way,
    Mom won't hesitate!
[07:12] ---
    That's why I want to stop her!
[07:14] ---
    I don't want Mom...
    to become some evil magician!
[07:27] ---
    Please, Suletta...
[07:28] ---
    Forget about us.
[07:33] ---
    No!
[07:36] ---
    I...
[07:38] ---
    I care about you!
[07:40] ---
    And Mom, too!
[07:44] ---
    When Mom cries,
[07:47] ---
    I want to be there to hug her!
[07:49] ---
    I want to be by her side!
[07:51] ---
    There's no way...
[07:54] ---
    I could ever forget!
[07:59] ---
    What a pity.
[08:10] ---
    We're surrounded.
[08:11] ---
    Ms. Miorine! Everyone!
[08:14] ---
    If you don't understand, Suletta...
[08:17] ---
    than I won't hesitate, either.
[08:20] ---
    Ericht!
[08:27] ---
    Please!
[08:29] ---
    Stop it, Ericht!
[08:49] ---
    The mobile suits...
[08:52] ---
    ...stopped?
[08:54] ---
    What just happened?
[08:55] ---
    Chuchu! Nika!
[08:57] ---
    Okay!
[09:01] ---
    Why?
[09:02] ---
    Why do you interfere?
[09:04] ---
    The data storm can make
    our wishes come true!
[09:08] ---
    Huh?
[09:10] ---
    What caused it?
[09:11] ---
    Data interference is occurring.
[09:14] ---
    The data storm's information density
    is degrading.
[09:18] ---
    Where are you going?
[09:22] ---
    To do pest control.
[09:25] ---
    Captain, Assembly League HQ
    is calling on a secure line.
[09:32] ---
    Lagrange 1 has an interplanetary
    laser power transmission system.
[09:37] ---
    We'd like you to use it.
[09:40] ---
    What about the special session
    that Delling requested?
[09:43] ---
    We've received no such request.
[09:48] ---
    An interplanetary weapon
[09:49] ---
    developed under the guise
    of a power transmission system...
SIGN    L1 Interplanetary Laser Transmission System
    "ILTS"
[09:54] ---
    I wonder, what if it were
    to be mistakenly activated?
[09:59] ---
    If we use that thing,
[10:01] ---
    it'll devastate not just Benerit
    but all of Lagrange 4.
[10:05] ---
    Who'll take responsibility?
[10:07] ---
    We will, of course.
[10:11] ---
    To make up for
    the Assembly League's blunder,
[10:13] ---
    I imagine Lagrange 1's sovereign
    government and corporate volunteers
[10:18] ---
    will lead the rebuilding efforts.
[10:21] ---
    And when the arbitration is over,
[10:25] ---
    you promise that our company
    will be in control of the Group.
[10:43] ---
    Let's go. Follow me.
[10:48] ---
    The data storm seems calmer in here.
[10:51] ---
    Thank goodness!
[10:57] ---
    Take this.
[10:59] ---
    You've had training, haven't you?
[11:02] ---
    I could never--
[11:03] ---
    I can't very well hand it to a student.
[11:09] ---
    Okay! Let's go punch in
    that shutdown code.
[11:12] ---
    W-Wait, Chuchu!
[11:18] ---
    A Haro?
[11:19] ---
    Intruders will be eliminated.
[11:29] ---
    So this is...
[11:31] ---
    a Gundam?
[11:34] ---
    With this, I'm a match for my brother!
[11:38] ---
    I can stop him!
[11:40] ---
    I can stop the witches...
[11:42] ---
    and Miorine!
[11:44] ---
    Lauda! Why don't you quit this?!
[11:47] ---
    Any further, and--
[11:48] ---
    It's you who should wake up, Brother!
[11:58] ---
    The crime of killing our father,
[12:00] ---
    the crime of wounding Petra...
[12:03] ---
    If you won't make that woman pay for it...
[12:07] ---
    You're wrong! Listen to me, Lauda!
[12:09] ---
    I will defend the honor
    of the Jeturk name!
[12:14] ---
    In place of my brother,
    who is in thrall to a witch,
[12:18] ---
    I will shoulder all of their sins!
[12:21] ---
    I will... Lauda Jeturk will...!
[12:37] ---
    You're Lauda?
[12:49] ---
    I'm Guel.
[12:51] ---
    Now I have a little brother!
[12:53] ---
    I'm super happy.
[13:06] ---
    Brother...?
[13:09] ---
    You're right.
[13:11] ---
    About Dad...
[13:14] ---
    If everyone...
[13:16] ---
    If you...
[13:18] ---
    can't forgive me, I...
[13:24] ---
    Brother! Run!
[13:27] ---
    I'll... never run again.
[13:30] ---
    From Dad or from you.
[13:34] ---
    So at least...
[13:38] ---
    Don't go piloting a Gundam anymore.
[13:44] ---
    I'm sorry, Brother...
[13:49] ---
    I'm sorry!
[13:56] ---
    Just how stupid are you two?!
[13:58] ---
    Felsi?!
[13:59] ---
    Dying in a sibling spat?!
[14:01] ---
    If that's a joke, it's not funny!
[14:08] ---
    You said it...
[14:11] ---
    It really wouldn't... be that funny.
[14:19] ---
    Idiot! Lower your head!
[14:21] ---
    Where the hell did you get that?
[14:23] ---
    Hell, who cares?
[14:25] ---
    Ms. Winston, take President Miorine
    to the core block!
[14:28] ---
    But...
[14:29] ---
    Go, Miorine!
[14:30] ---
    Go and finish the job!
[14:32] ---
    As quickly as possible, please!
[14:42] ---
    Let's go.
[14:44] ---
    Let me take care of them.
    Nobody will get killed this time.
[14:49] ---
    Always rubbing it in...
[15:00] ---
    In here.
[15:07] ---
    Hurry up and shut it down.
[15:09] ---
    I know, okay?
[15:13] ---
    Let me try.
[15:17] ---
    Why?
[15:19] ---
    If that's the emergency shutdown code,
[15:21] ---
    I took the liberty of changing it.
[15:24] ---
    Did you think I was so careless?
[15:30] ---
    Miorine is with Mom now.
[15:34] ---
    If it's to gain one, Mom will...
[15:38] ---
    No!
[15:40] ---
    Then don't take away the place
    where Mom and I can live freely.
[15:48] ---
    Ma'am! Please stop this now!
[15:50] ---
    Why?
[15:52] ---
    Eri is the child blessed
    by Vanadis's ideals.
[15:56] ---
    Yet there's no place for her
    in this world.
[16:00] ---
    So I'll have to make one.
[16:03] ---
    A place where Eri can be happy.
[16:07] ---
    Eri, Eri...
[16:09] ---
    Don't you care about Suletta at all?
[16:11] ---
    I do love her.
[16:12] ---
    But now she has friends like you.
[16:17] ---
    Can you imagine how Suletta feels
    aboard the Calibarn?
[16:21] ---
    She was trembling with fear
    that she might die.
[16:24] ---
    But even so,
    because she cares for you both...
[16:29] ---
    because she loves you...
[16:32] ---
    If you're a mother,
    then love your daughters equally!
[16:37] ---
    That's none of your business...
[16:43] ---
    Hey! Are you trying to
    reprogram it or something?
[16:45] ---
    If I can get around the admin rights...
[16:54] ---
    Now, be a good girl
    and hand over those units--
[16:59] ---
    I can't... keep running any longer...
[17:04] ---
    I...
[17:17] ---
    Hurry! Quick!
[17:18] ---
    Shut up! I know, already!
[17:29] ---
    There was an unknown message
    in the genetic code.
[17:33] ---
    When we converted it to text,
    it turned out to be words.
[17:41] ---
    I'll always...
[17:44] ---
    love you too.
[17:50] ---
    All for the love of my precious child.
[17:54] ---
    A mother can be very strong, young lady.
[18:04] ---
    Mom!
[18:21] ---
    We have a signal!
[18:23] ---
    Permet link established.
[18:25] ---
    Commence calling.
[18:27] ---
    Roger.
[18:28] ---
    Now infiltrating
    Quiet Zero's internal systems.
[18:40] ---
    Mom!
[18:41] ---
    Route everything to security!
[18:43] ---
    It's no use. There's too much.
[19:09] ---
    It stopped?
[19:11] ---
    The data storm has dissipated.
[19:13] ---
    Everyone is okay!
[19:16] ---
    Yes!
[19:18] ---
    Mission accomplished!
[19:25] ---
    You're not so good at killing people.
[19:27] ---
    Next time, try helping them instead.
[19:32] ---
    "Move forward, gain two."
[19:35] ---
    Those were your words, right?
[19:37] ---
    Then do as you say and move forward.
[19:40] ---
    You, Suletta, Ericht...
[19:44] ---
    All of us... will be family, after all.
[19:49] ---
    Quiet Zero has shut down.
[19:53] ---
    Now if you could please leave us...
[19:56] ---
    I'm afraid not.
[19:58] ---
    You and your companies
    have grown far too big.
[20:06] ---
    Moving power transmission
    preparation to Phase 5.
[20:09] ---
    Array setup within error range.

[20:39] ---
    No!
[20:50] ---
    Eri! Stop that!

    Everyone...?
[22:07] ---
    Eri!
