Evangelion 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone - ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版:序
Misato: Of course, it would have to show up right now of all times!? Just my luck.
Operator: We're sorry. Due to the state of emergency that has been declared all lines are currently out of service.
Shinji: Huh. No good. My cell's not getting a signal, either. And none of the buses and trains are running. Hmm. So much for meeting here. I guess I should go find a shelter.
Pilot: Missiles away! Direct hit!
Misato: Hi there. Sorry I'm late.
Pilot: Target is still active. Now advancing on Tokyo-3, outer defense perimeter.
Operator: Air Force reports first-wave attacks ineffective.
Man 1: Launch a full assault. 4th Division! Close in and cut off its line of advance.
Man 3: Hit it with everything you've got. Bring that target down at all costs!
Man 3: What the hell?! Why is it still standing!
Man 1: The tank battalion's been wiped out. That thing is just striding over our defenses like they're not even there.
Man 3: Damn it! Then we can did it harder. We can't let it get through.
Fuyutsuki: An AT Field as we expected.
Ikari: Hmm.
Fuyutsuki: Conventional weapons won't be of any use against an Angel.
Man 2: Yes. Understood. We'll activate the contingency plan.
Misato: What the heck they'll do... Ah, crap! They're gonna use an N2 Mine?! Get down!
Man 3: We did it!
Operator: [ coming ]
Man 1: Sorry, gentleman. It seems you won't be needed here today, after all.
Woman 1: [Shockwave ].
Misato: Are you okay?
Shinji: I think I just can't get this dirt out of my mouth.
Misato: I'll take that as a yes. So ready? Push on three. Three.
Misato: Huh. Now, that wasn't so bad, was it? Thanks for helping me out.
Shinji: Come on. I should be thanking you, Miss Katsuragi.
Misato: Oh, please. It's Misato. And I guess you prefer Shinji over Mr. Ikari.
Shinji: Uh, yeah.
Man 1: What's the status of the target?
Woman 1: Target []. Activating...
Man 3: You saw that explosion. It's over.
Operator: Visuals back on line.
Man 1: Oh!
Woman 1: Target still active. []
Operator: []
Man 1: That was it. Our ace in the hole.
Man 2: It had no effect?!
Man 3: Goddamn it!
Misato: At least the car didn't get totaled. That wouldn't been bad news. I've still got 12 payments left on the loan. And I doubt my insurance covers N2 mines. Oh, I also request express lift service. So that should help us make up some time once we get there. But you're being awfully quiet. You okay?
Shinji: What? Oh, yeah.
Misato: You sure? I figured you'd be asking a million questions by now.
Shinji: Um, no, sorry...
Misato: It's nothing you have to apologize for. It's just, you know, what was that huge thing back there?" Why did I [down the skid blown to smithereens]?" Natural responses.
Shinji: Well, um... Guess I figure you wouldn't give me answers even if I ask.
Misato: So, You are the type that likes to assume the worst, huh. That's pretty jaded for a kid.
Shinji: I'm not jaded. I'm just doing what my teacher told me to do. That's all.
Misato: Oh? Well, that's fine. Incidentally, that thing we saw back there was a life form known as an "Angel."
Fuyutsuki: The 4th Angel... Its ability to regenerate itself is quite impressive.
Ikari: We're dealing with a near-perfect life form entirely self-sufficient. It's to be expected. Those who we waited for the Fruit of Life, indeed.
Fuyutsuki: Yes. They exist only to destroy us who ate the Fruit of Wisdom.
Woman 1: Warning. This gate now closing. Please stand clear.
Misato: We are a clandestine organization that answers directly to the U.N.
Shinji: That's where my dad works, isn't it?
Misato: Well, yeah. You do know what your father does, don't you?
Shinji: All what I know is what my teacher told me. He said it was something important to mankind's future.
Woman 1: District 7 fort damaged. [] Now []
Man 2: As of now, operational command will be transferred to you and your team.
Man 3: It's time to show us what you've got.
Ikari: I understood.
Man 1: At this point, it is clear that our weapons do not provide adequate means to deal with the target. Which makes you our last line of defense.
Man 2: Ikari. So tell us can you stop this thing?
Ikari: That's what NERV's for, gentleman.
Shinji: Will my dad be waiting for us once we get there?
Misato: I don't know. It depends, I guess.
Shinji: Dad...
Misato: Oh, that reminds me. Did he happen to send you an ID card?
Shinji: I think. You mean this?
Misato: Perfect. Thanks. And here. You'd better read this.
Shinji: Welcome to NERV. Wait. So does this mean... I'm gonna be working for them somehow? Huh. Yes, it wouldn't surprise me. No way Dad would've asked me to come unless he needed something.
Misato: Hmm. Sounds like you and your dad don't get along too well. I guess we have that in common.
Shinji: Oh, wow! That's... it's the real GeoFront!
Misato: Yep. And that's it. Our secret underground base, NERV HQ. The key in the effort to rebuild our world. And ensure mankind's place in it.
Misato: Let's see... From the station's west entrance, we took a right at North gate No. 3 which take us to Route 8. I swear it's like they set this place up to be confusing on purpose. But I'm pretty sure we're on the right track now, though.
Shinji: Um, are we lost?
Misato: I'm new here, okay? But, if we keep moving, we'll get there eventually.
Operator: Stage 2: Cool down complete. Maintenance crew: return to surface.
Mechanic: Pressure: stable.
Ritsuko: Finish thawing out the conductors in the left arm. I want it ready in three minutes! And don't forget to chart the apoptosis data during the procedure.
Mechanic: Roger.
Operator: Report for Dr. Akagi: Arrival of Lieutenant Colonel Katsuragi of Operation Section 1. And one additional member confirmed in Shaft S36.
Ritsuko: I knew it. She got lost again.
Misato: Oh, ah, Ritsuko!
Ritsuko: You're 12 minutes late, Lieutenant Colonel Katsuragi. Be glad I came to find you when I did. Another minute and we were going to have to send out a search party.
Misato: Eh... Sorry!
Ritsuko: So, this is the boy, I take it.
Misato: Yep.
Ritsuko: Ritsuko Akagi. Head of Project E Technology Division Section 1. It's a pleasure.
Shinji: Ah, yeah.
Ikari: I'll leave the rest to you.
Operator: Ready 600 [] operation.
Woman 1: All personnel, []
Fuyutsuki: Their first reunion in 3 years.
Aoba: Vice Commander! We've confirmed that the target is coming online.
Fuyutsuki: Understood. All personnel to battle stations! Condition 1.
Woman 1: Repeating. All personnel to battle stations. Condition 1. Prepare to intercept front target.
Man 1: [] inspected in [] based on []
Ritsuko: Shinji Ikari, I’m going to show you something. You're looking at the most advanced weapon system ever developed by man. The synthetic humanoid Evangelion. This is Unit 01, humanity's last hope for survival.
Shinji: So this is a part of my Dad's work?
Ikari: It is. It's been quite a while.
Shinji: It's you.
Ikari: We're moving out.
Misato: Moving out?! But Unit 00 is still in suspension, right? You can't seriously be considering activating Unit 01.
Ritsuko: Do you know of another option? Shinji Ikari.
Shinji: Uh?
Ritsuko: You will be the pilot.
Shinji: Huh? Dad? Why did you send for me?
Ikari: I think the reason has already been made obvious.
Shinji: So what? You expected me to just get in this thing and fight, is that it?
Ikari: Correct.
Shinji: But that's crazy! Why are you doing this? You never wanted me here before, why now?
Ikari: Because now I have a use for you.
Shinji: But why? Why me, dad?
Ikari: It would be impossible for anyone else.
Shinji: It's impossible for me. I've never even seen anything like this before. How can I be the pilot?
Ikari: You'll receive instruction.
Shinji: No! It... It just won't work! I... I'm telling you! There's no way!
Ikari: If you're going to do it, do it now. If not... Leave!
Ikari: Damn it! It knows our location.
Operator: Level 1. Armor plating 8 destroyed.
Ritsuko: Shinji. There isn't much time.
Operator: Fire alert: Block D. All personnel, please evacuate immediately.
Misato: Get in, Shinji.
Shinji: It's not fair. If I would know what he wanted this, How, why did I come?!
Misato: Why did you? Why did you come if not for this? You mustn't run away. Not from your father and especially not from yourself.
Shinji: I know that! But what you're asking is impossible!
Ikari: Fuyutsuki. Begin prepping Rei.
Fuyutsuki: But can we use her?
Ikari: She's not dead yet.
Fuyutsuki: Understood.
Ikari: Rei.
Ayanami: Yes.
Ikari: We can't use the spare. You're going out.
Ayanami: Yes.
Ritsuko: Let's move! Switch out the core unit! Set unit 01 to the L-0 type and reactivate!
Woman 1: Roger. Canceling current operation. Reconfiguring core unit.
Woman 2: Activation command initialized.
Shinji: I knew it. He didn't really need me. No one does.
Woman 1: Target has crossed the last line of defense.
Woman 2: Moving into position directly overhead.
Shinji: Are you alright?
Shinji: I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away, I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away! Fine. I'll do it. I'll be your pilot.
Ritsuko: Just relax. Once your lungs are filled with LCL, it will allow blood to be oxygenated directly. You'll get used to it.
Man 1: Primary power source connect.
Woman 1: Roger that.
Woman 2: Initiating secondary contact.
Woman 1: Connecting interface.
Woman 2: A-10 neural connection, nominal.
Woman 1: LCL charge is normal. Woman 2: Set cognitive morphology. Localize all verbal command settings. Primary contact phase, complete. All nominal.
Woman 1: Opening communication channel. Checklist, all clear through 1-4-0-5.
Woman 2: Synapse synchronization rate, 41.3%.
Ritsuko: And that's without the benefit of a plug suit! Incredible.
Maya: Harmonics are within normal parameters. No instabilities detected.
Ritsuko: Right. We're clear.
Misato: We're go for launch!
Man 1: Initiating launch sequence.
Man 2: Disengage lock bolts 1.
Woman 1: Disengage confirmed.
Man 1: Retracting umbilical bridge.
Man 2: Disengage lock bolt 2.
Man 1: Disengage lock bolt 2 confirmed. Now removing restraint gear 1 and 2.
Man 2: Releasing safety, number 1 through 15.
Woman 1: Release confirmed.
Woman 2: Current stats. Unit 01 is free.
Man 1: Internal batteries, fully charged. External power source connection, normal.
Maya: Roger that. Transfer Eva Unit 01 to the launch pad.
Woman 1: All unit transport systems are good to go. Lift hydraulics operating normally.
Woman 2: Unit 01 currently traveling along path from I-2.
Woman 1: Human [].
Woman 2: Eva unit 01 has arrived at the launch terminal hub. Now locking in position. Awaiting final launch clearance. [] standing by. Opening launch gates 1 thorough 8.
Maya: Launch path is clear. All green!
Ritsuko: Prep sequence complete.
Misato: Understood. Last chance to abort.
Ikari: No. Ether we stop that Angel, or humanity's future ends here.
Fuyutsuki: Ikari, are you sure this is the right thing to do?
Misato: Launch it!
Misato: Ready, Shinji?
Shinji: Yeah, ready.
Misato: Here we go! Release final safety! Evangelion Unit 01, move out!
Ritsuko: Shinji. Just concentrate on walking for now.
Shinji: Walk...
Ritsuko: It's doing it!
Shinji: Just walk...
Misato: Shinji! Pull it together! You have to get up! Now!
Misato: Listen to me! Don't panic! Your arm isn't really being pulled! Focus!
Ritsuko: Where is the Eva's defenses?
Maya: System unresponsive.
Hyuga: The field has deployed.
Ritsuko: But why?!
Maya: Left arm damaged!
Aoba: Link 2 cut!
Misato: No! Shinji!
Maya: We have a clack on the cranial plating!
Ritsuko: The armor won't last much longer.
Hyuga: Head damage! Extent unknown.
Woman1: Situation critical.
Misato: What's the status?
Maya: The synchronization graph is inverting! Pulse reversing!
Ritsuko: Break the circuit! Try to stop it!
Maya: No good! It's rejecting the signal. We're locked out!
Misato: How Shinji?
Hyuga: No response. Condition unknown.
Aoba: Unit 01 has completely shut down.
Ritsuko: Misato!
Misato: So that's it! Abort mission! Pilot safety is top priority! Get him out of there now! Eject the plug!
Maya: It's no use! All remote links have been severed.
Misato: No, Shinji...
Woman 1: Unit 01 reactivating.
Maya: So, what?! That shouldn't be possible.
Woman 2: Unit 01 [] abnormal power.
Misato: Oh, no...
Ritsuko: It's gone Berserk?!
Fuyutsuki: We've done it.
Ritsuko: It's an AT-Field?
Misato: This is bad. As long as the aegis [got that fields up]
Ritsuko: You won't to be able to touch it!
Hyuga: Left arm restored!
Misato: No way!
Maya: Unit 01 has also deployed an AT-Field! It's neutralizing the phase space.
Ritsuko: My God! It's breaking right through it
Misato: It just tore that AT-Field like it was nothing...
Misato: Where's Eva?
Ritsuko: Now we've seen it.
Misato: The Eva's true form.
Yui: So, have you picked out a name?
Ikari: If it's a boy, we name him Shinji. If it's a girl, Rei.
Keel: The fourth Angel's attack and subsequent destruction, the acquisition of the Third Child, Eva Unit 01 successful deployment, all according to plan, it would seem.
Seele 04: The astronomical cost of repaired Unit 01 was an unexpected setback.
Seele 05: Compared to Unit 00's suspension, however, this is a minor concern.
Ritsuko: The recovery operation for Eva Unit 01 has been completed. It's currently been holding in Cage 6. The inspection of the unit is set take place today 10:00 hours.
Misato: What about the mission recorder?
Ritsuko: Nothing. No data. It went offline when Eva went berserk.
Misato: So, we won't know the cause which means this could happen again. And next time, we might not be so lucky.
Keel: How serious was this malfunction? Will the unit be ready when the 5th Angel appears?
Ikari: You needn't be concerned. Now the unit 01 is assigned to active duty, unit 02 and its designated pilot are undergoing evaluation in Germany.
Seele 04: See to it Unit 03 and the rest are also completed on schedule.
Seele 03: We are accounting on you not to disappoint us. It's your duty to ensure that NERV and the Evas are utilized appropriately.
Seele 06: Precisely. Annihilating the Angels is only one part of our covenant with Lilith.
Keel: The Human Instrumentality Project. This is our ultimate goal. I would advise you not to lose sight of it.
Ikari: I understand. Rest assured. SEELE's plans will soon come to fruition.
Ritsuko: The disintegration of the angel after it lost the AT field. It's beyond anything we anticipated.
Maya: It's like staring into the bloody pools of hell. It reminds me the second impact, you know. Not a good feeling.
Misato: The Evas can beat Angels. That fact that we're even here to see this means that mankind has a sliver of hope.
Ritsuko: It seems the pilot shouldering that hope has just woken up.
Operator: Paging Dr. Ugai, Dr. Ugai, Internal Medicine 1 please contact Dr. Azuma in Surgery 1 immediately.
Woman 1: The medical conference on incident "b" will be held as scheduled. All closing []. [] to conference room 2.
Misato: Alone? Seriously?
Officer: That's right. His room will be in Block 6 up ahead. I trust you have no problems with that.
Shinji: No.
Misato: What? Really? You're okay with this?
Shinji: Yeah, it's fine. I'd rather be alone. It's, well, it's what I'm used to.
Ritsuko: What did you say?!
Misato: You heard me. I said I decided to let Shinji stay at my place. What's the big deal? I cleared it with the higher-ups. You don't have to worry about a thing. I promise I won't put the moves on him.
Ritsuko: I should hope not! Why would you even say something like that? Honestly! It's nothing [but a joke on your sense ]
Misato: Oh yeah, she never did have a sense of humor.
Misato: So, what do you say? You ready to live it up tonight?
Shinji: Uh, I, I don't know.
Misato: Come on. Let me throw a welcome a party for my new roomie. It'll be fun!
Woman 1: Is it true? You're really moving?
Woman 2: We sure are. I mean, I never dreamed that this place would really turn into war zone. It's just come to dangerous.
Woman 1: I know what you mean.
Woman 2: My husband telling me that the children and I should evacuate, too. And did you hear there were over 100 relocation notices filed this morning alone.
Woman 1: It doesn't surprise me. I don't care how much they fortify this city. When it comes down to it, you can't count on NERV for anything.
Woman 2: Oh, I get shivers just thinking about yesterday, how close we came?
Woman 1: I know, right?
Misato: I hope you don't mind. But we need to make a tiny little side trip.
Shinji: Where are we going?
Misato: Somewhere nice. You'll see.
Shinji: From up here. The city just looks so lonely.
Misato: It's time.
Shinji: Amazing... The buildings, they're growing.
Misato: This whole city is the fortress built to intercept Angels. It's our city, Tokyo-3. Take a good look down there. You see it? That's the city you protected.
Misato: Oh, good. It looks like they delivered your stuff already. I just moved in here the other day myself. So I still have some unpacking to do, too. Well, come in.
Shinji: Yeah... Okay. Thanks for having me.
Misato: Shinji. This is your home now. Just come in.
Shinji: Well. Home, sweet home.
Misato: Home, sweet home. Oh, sorry it's a little messy. Like I said. I'm just settling in.
Shinji: This is... a little messy?
Misato: Hey, While you're out there would you put the food away in the fridge?
Shinji: Ah, yeah, sure! Ice... Snacks... Nothing but beer? What did I get myself into?
Misato: Alright! Let's dig in!
Shinji: Uh, okay...
Misato: Ah! Yeahhhh. I tell you, Shinji. It's the moments like these that makes it all worthwhile, don't you think? You're not eating. I know it's all microwave food, but it's good, trust me.
Shinji: Well... it's just... I don't usually eat stuff like this, so…
Misato: Are you being picky!
Shinji: Uh, no, I... I just meant... looks good...
Ritsuko: You're kind and nice, right? Two roomies sitting down to a hot home cooked meal.
Shinji: Uh... Right.
Misato: Good! Cause from now on this is your place as much as it is mine. So kick back and and make yourself comfortable, okay?
Shinji: Uh, alright.
Misato: Huh. Right, right, right, right. Is that all you know how to say? Stop out of it! Can't you just agree on everything anyone tells you?
Shinji: Right.
Misato: Uh, anyway. I know just the thing you need. Ha, ha, ha! A nice hot bath, to clear your head. Wash all those worries down the drain.
Shinji: Wow. M-M-Misato! There's a thing!
Misato: A what?
Shinji: It, I've imagined, Well, I don't know, it's, um.
Misato: Oh, that thing. He's a bird actually, a warm water penguin.
Shinji: Since when do your birds like that even exist?!
Misato: Since always, I guess, though they're rare these days. His name is Pen-pen. I should have mentioned to you he lives with me. Just think of him as another roomie. And, uh, now that you've met, what don't you go cover up?
Shinji: Oh!
Misato: Maybe I was acting just a little too cheerly. Huh, but it was all I could do to keep a straight face.
Shinji: Misato Katsuragi... She's not a bad person. She means well.
Misato: Wash all those worries down the drain.
Shinji: But for me baths only bring back washes of bad memories.
Ritsuko: How did Rei seem this afternoon? You went to see her today, didn't you? At the hospital?
Ikari: She will be fine. She'll be ready when it's time to reactivate Unit 00. That's all that matters.
Ritsuko: Are what about your son? Psychologically speaking, he seems rather unstable.
Ikari: Let him be. If nothing else, it gives us an excuse to bring Unit 00 out of suspension.
Ritsuko: And We'll act in accordance with Lieutenant Colonel Katsuragi's suggestion.
Misato: The Third Child. Suddenly selected without a preliminary report. And the timing was the Angel's attack. The same day he was scheduled to arrive. Not only that but the fact that he is Commander Ikari's son. The coincidences just keep stacking up. Yet we did defeat the Angel, That has to count for something. But I still don't like it.
Shinji: Another ceiling I don't recognize. I guess that's no surprise. There's no place in this entire city I'm familiar with.
Misato: Shinji. This is your home now.
Shinji: Why am I here?
Misato: Shinji? I'm opening the door. Okay? Listen. I forgot to tell you something. What you did the other day was a good thing, an admirable thing. You should be proud. Okay, Shinji. Hang in there.
Toji: Sorry about that, new kid. Thing is I owed you one and I had to do it. It just wasn't gonna feel right until I did.
Kensuke: I apologize. Don't take it personally though. Toji's sister got hurt in that mess in other day. Well, I guess I'll you see around.
Shinji: What I do? It's not like I wanted to be the pilot.
Shinji: An admirable thing. Admirable by who? Why do I have to get beat up just because I was piloting the Eva?
Ritsuko: Are you ready, Shinji?
Shinji: Yes.
Ritsuko: As you know, all Angels have a part called the core. It is their one weak spot. Destroying it is the only way we can physically eradicate an Angel. This is what you'll aim for. Center in on the target and then pull the trigger.
Shinji: Repeat this drill until you learn to do it by feel.
Shinji: Right.
Ritsuko: Yes, fairly good. We'll continue practicing in the induction mode for now.
Shinji: Right.
Maya: I must say I'm a bit surprised that Shinji agreed to be a pilot again.
Ritsuko: I think he is just the type that does what he's told. I guess that until now that how he's gotten through life.
Shinji: Centering in on the target and then pull the trigger. Centering in on the target and then pull the trigger. Centering in on the target and then pull the trigger. Centering in on the target and then pull the trigger.
Ritsuko: That reminds me. I heard Shinji was hit by a classmate on his first day of school? Are you sure we have adequate security for the pilots?
Misato: The intelligence department has them under constant surveillance. He was never in any real danger. Besides, I think it's better not to interfere in his private life if we can avoid it.
Ritsuko: Says the woman who is living with them. His maintenance is still a part of your job, isn't it?
Misato: Technically speaking. He's just so much more naive and complicated than I expected.
Ritsuko: Complaining already? You were the one who insisted on taking him in.
Misato: Oh, shut up.
Ritsuko: You're right though. From what I've been able to tell of him Shinji's personality may not be geared toward making friends. Have you ever heard of the "Hedgehog's dilemma"?
Misato: Hedgehogs? Those little spiky critters? Ritsuko: See, with hedgehogs even if they want to get close to one another for warmth the closer they get, the more they risk hurting each other with the quills on their body. It's really no different for people. Shinji is worried about what will happen if he lets someone get too close. He's afraid of that pain and that's made him pull away completely
Girl 1: Can you believe it? Aren't you crazy right?
Girl 2: I know.
Misato: Well, he'll figure it out someday. The part of growing up is allowing yourself to get hurt sometimes, to keep letting people in until you finally find that safe distance where you can be close without hurting each other too much.
Ritsuko: I hope you're right.
Misato: Geez, when are they gonna approve the budget to repair this part of building B anyway?
Ritsuko: Maintaining the Eva's and keeping them equipped takes top priority. So, probably never.
Misato: They could at least spring for seat warmers.
Ayanami: There's an emergency. Come on. Let's go.
Aoba: We have a [confirmed] visual on the object.
Woman 1: E747, target verified.
Ritsuko: Analysis Pattern Blue. It's here. The fifth Angel.
Misato: Now! Battle stations: condition 1.
Hyuga: Roger that. Preparing city for ground-to-air interception.
Woman 1: Tokyo-3 transitioning to battle configuration.
Woman 2: []. Open to []
Ritsuko: Central block, commencing retraction.
Maya: Transition complete. Center block and Districts 1 through 7 have been retracted.
Man 1: Governmental ministries and related departments have been notified.
Woman 1: Target is continuing its advance.
Woman 2: Air defense system currently operating at 48%.
Misato: Status of noncombat personnel and civilians?
Aoba: So far all district is reporting successful evacuation.
Woman 1: Students, please stay with your own class. All other residents, please proceed to your designated block. [] 7 lost children []
Kensuke: Man, they're doing it again.
Toji: Where they just post some goofy message?
Kensuke: It's what you call a news is blackout. They don't want civilians like us to see what's going on. Major event like this doesn't seem fair.
Ritsuko: A waste of tax payer's money.
Misato: I guess these military types just won't get satisfied until they fire all their bullets.
Aoba: Japanese government. They're requesting Eva mobilization.
Misato: They just don't get it, do they? We'll mobilize weather they request it or not.
Woman 1: LCL charged.
Woman 2: Crimp lock released.
Shinji: Dad isn't even watching. Why am I piloting this thing again? When everyone hates me for it.
Kensuke: Hey, I need to talk you about something private okay?
Toji: Yeah, what?
Kensuke: Come on, now.
Toji: Fine, whatever.
Horaki: Right, so then []
Toji: Hey, Class Rep!
Horaki: What?
Toji: We got to go. You know, take a leak.
Horaki: Really. Oh, come on. You guys should have done that earlier.
Toji: So, what do you want?
Kensuke: I got to see it. I mean just once before I die!
Toji: The shootout up there?
Kensuke: This is it. The real deal! And there's no telling when another one of those things will come along.
Toji: Kensuke, man, I don't know.
Kensuke: But this might be the only chance we have ever get. Come on, please. I just need your help with the lock.
Toji: Um, all right. You know, you can be pretty damn pushy sometimes. Is anyone ever told you that...
Misato: Shinji, it's time to mobilize. Are you ready?
Shinji: Yeah.
Ritsuko: Listen closely. As you neutralize enemy's AT Field, fire a volley with the gatling gun. Do it just like we practiced, and you'll be fine.
Shinji: Right.
Misato: Move out!
Kensuke: [] Definitely makes all the trouble we're gonna get in worth it.
Aoba: Oh, here's the main event!
Aoba: What so...
Maya: A.T. Field deployed.
Shinji: Center on target, and then pull the trigger.
Ritsuko: Just like we practiced, all right, Shinji?
Shinji: Center on the target, and pull the trigger. Right.
Misato: Check your fire. You lose the target in the blast cloud!
Toji: Hell, he's already getting thrashed.
Kensuke: He'll be fine.
Misato: We're sending up a spare rifle! Take it! Shinji? Shinji!
Kensuke: Wow. Maybe he's still not seeing straight from that beating you gave him.
Toji: You shut up!
Aoba: Umbilical Cable severed!
Hyuga: Eva has switched to internal power!
Maya: Operational time: 4 minutes 53 seconds!
Aoba: It's coming this way!
Misato: Shinji, are you all right? Shinji! What's the damage?
Hyuga: None. All combat system is operational.
Misato: What's the?! Toji, Shinji's classmates?!
Ritsuko: How are they doing out there?
Toji: Why the hell doesn't he fight it?!
Kensuke: I think he might be because we're here. He can't fight with us in the way.
Maya: Unit 01 has 3 minutes 28 seconds operational time remaining.
Woman1: Contact surface melting. Damage at 58%.
Misato: Shinji! Let those two in the cockpit. Once you have them secured, we will retreat and regroup. Go, now!
Misato: You two, get in, quickly!
Toji: What the hell?! There's water here?
Kensuke: Oh, my camera!
Woman 1: [] closing now.
Maya: Contact surface, protective film 3 melting.
Misato: Now hurry! Get out there! Retreat!
Maya: Use extraction route number 34.
Misato: Fall back! []
Toji: Hey, new kid. [] telling you []
Maya: 1 minute 34 seconds operational power remaining.
Shinji: I mustn't run away... I mustn't run away... I mustn't run away...
Toji: Hey! New kid.
Aoba: Progressive Knife equipped!
Misato: Shinji, I gave you an order. Retreat! Shinji!
Misato: That stupid boy.
Maya: Time remaining until complete unit failure: 30 seconds. 28, 27, 26, 25, 24, 23, 22
Misato: Shinji, why did you ignore my orders up there?
Shinji: I'm sorry.
Misato: I am your superior officer in charge of your missions.
Shinji: Yeah.
Misato: Which means you have an obligation to follow my orders no matter what. Do you understand?
Shinji: Yeah.
Misato: Then make sure this never happens again.
Shinji: Yeah.
Misato: Are you even listening to what I am saying?
Shinji: Yeah, I hear you. Loud and clear. But what does it matter anymore? We won. Look. I'll pilot it when you tell me to. That's all you really want, isn't it?
Misato: We've done here. Go home and get some rest. I'll be there soon.
Announcement: Next station is Nagao Pass. Nagao Pass. Please exit through the doors on the right.
Woman 1: Try our special service to melt away the stress from your day. Try our special service to []
Misato: So he is not coming home. Damn that boy.
Teacher: Ikari:, Shinji Ikari. Hmm. So our newest student is already absent. Well, I suppose we can forgive him just this once. As the rest of you it's time for a pop quiz.
Shinji: That's it! I'm ready all right. You can take me back to Misato now.
Misato: So, do you feel better after your little walk? Was it worth it?
Shinji: Not really. But I don't care anymore not about any of it. Even if I did, it's not like I have any choice. I am an Eva pilot now, nothing else. That's what Dad call me here for, right? It's what you all want. So you win. I'll pilot it. If that's what makes everyone happy, then fine.
Misato: And what about you? Is this what you want?
Shinji: I know I'm not cut out for this. I mean, is that really so hard for anyone to see? But until Rei gets better, you and Dad and everyone expects me to...
Misato: That's enough! This isn't about what other people want. This is your choice. You decide for yourself whether or not you gonna pilot Eva. If you don't want to do it, leave. You're free to go at anytime you like. It's up to you.
Fuyutsuki: I had my doubts. But in the end, your son behaved exactly as you predicted he would.
Ikari: Yes. Next I'll have him begin getting closer to Rei. The plan will proceed, unchanged.
Fuyutsuki: Following the script we laid out for these children fourteen years ago. The story of their lives. It's almost cruel.
Toji: Just hurry up and do it. Come on! What are you waiting for? Just do it. I'm not gonna feel right. Come on!
Kensuke: I know he means that too. Go on! You'll be doing him a favor.
Toji: Okay. Now we're even. Sorry I decked you the other day.
Girl 1: Go, go hurry! Better hurry.
Girl 2: [] it's not for you so []
Boy 1: All right! Go, go!
Boy 2: Take this shot!
Boy 3: Hey, come on, guys.
Girl 1: Ew, the boys are down there gawking again.
Girl 2: Gross.
Girl 1: They're so bad.
Girl 2: Look at Toji. those pervy little eyes.
Ritsuko: Rei Ayanami. Fourteen years old. She was the first qualified pilot chosen in according to the Marduk Report. The First Child that designated a pilot for the Evangelion prototype Unit 00. Beyond that, her history is blank. It's been completely erased from the official records.
Shinji: And my Dad? When she got hurt he's the one who saved her?
Maya: Abnormal in activation system.
Woman 1: Irregularity detected in stage 3.
Woman 2: [] of internal rejection in central nerve element.
Maya: Interference in main transmission system! Pulse reversing! We can't stop it!
Woman 1: Direct monitors disconnected.
Hyuga: Interference in main transmission system!
Maya: Plug depth unstable. It' being drawn towards Eva.
Woman 1: [] is abnormal.
Ritsuko: Abort contact! Emergency shut down circuit 1 through 6.
Maya: It's not working. The signal isn't getting thorough. Unit 00 is out of control!
Ikari: Abort the experiment. Cut the main power.
Ritsuko: Yes, sir!
Woman: All condition unknown.
Ritsuko: Unit 00 has switched to auxiliary power.
Maya: 35 seconds to complete system shutdown.
Man 1: Automatic dampening system still not responding.
Ritsuko: Sir, it's dangerous! Get back!
Maya: The emergency auto rejection activating.
Ikari: Shut it down!
Man 2: We still [] control!
Ritsuko: Special Bakelite! Hurry...
Ikari: No, Rei!
Maya: Ten seconds to complete system shutdown! 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Unit 00 is now offline.
Ikari: Rei, are you alright? Rei! I understand.
Misato: That does really strike me at something Ikari would do.
Ritsuko: His part in it has been expunged from the official report, but it definitely happened.
Misato: And even after all that, he still wants to take Unit 00 out of suspension. Are we being a bit hasty?
Ritsuko: The Angels have forced our hand. We need every weapon in our arsenal that we can get.
Misato: That's true, but... still...
Ritsuko: Rei's reactivation tests have already been completed. And there are no problems with Unit 00 itself. All that's left is to calibrate the neural connections and then…
Misato: And she'll immediately be put back on active duty, huh?
Shinji: Rei... She's always alone. Why is that?
Maya: Eva Unit 01 entering stage 3 cool down.
Woman1: Initial harmonix [] [] all green. [] clear.
Maya: Cage 6 proceed system shutdown checklist, pages 1 to 3.
Woman 1: Copying all personal data from the entry plug for Melchior analysis. [] channel.
Woman 2: Melchior confirmation received. Commencing H 3
Woman 1: Unit-01's current plug depth is 0.8.
Hyuga: Stage 3 Cool down complete. Heat levels normal.
Woman 1: Code 1 through
Woman 2: 150 minute countdown until restart of unit-00 transmission test.
Ritsuko: Roger that. Routine synchronization test, Program 508 completed. Thank you for your time, Shinji. So, how is it living with him?
Misato: It's alright. I'm getting used to it.
Ritsuko: Then things are settling in. This isn't your first time living with a guy, as I recall?
Misato: Nah. But this isn't anything like 8 years ago. It's not a romantic thing for one.
Ritsuko: I don't know about that. He could be. Shinji is only staying here because of you.
Misato: No. I'd say, it's mostly for his Dad. He's hoping his Dad will finally notice him, maybe get to know him have any kind of contact, just one little word of praise. That's all it would take and let him know he is not alone.
Ritsuko: So these issues with his father I'm guessing you can relate?
Misato: I just don't get it. How can Commander Ikari be so disinterested in his own son? He has no problem talking to Rei. It just doesn't seem fair.
Ritsuko: But is it that unusual? Powerful men are notoriously self absorbed.
Misato: That still doesn't make it any easier to watch, you know?
Ritsuko: At any rate I think it's time I was getting back.
Misato: Always the good little workaholic, aren't you?
Ritsuko: Oh, yeah. As long as you're going home, take these. Shinji's official security card and Rei's renewal. I missed her earlier. If you could, ask Shinji to give it to her tomorrow.
Misato: Yeah, sure.
Shinji: Rei Ayanami. Why does Dad smile when he sees her? Why won't he smile for me?
Shinji: Rei, I, I was just... I wasn't snooping. I…
Ayanami: Would you get off me?
Shinji: Ah! I was, uh...
Ayanami: What?
Shinji: Um... Uh, wait, I, but I, I... was just... I... I was um, I was asked to... uh, to, what was it? Oh, the card! There's a card they, uh, they asked me to bring it. So, uh, so... It's not like I mean to... Oh, Ritsuko, she, uh, she, she forgot to give it to you. H, honest, and, and no one answered when I rang the doorbell. And, and the door was unlocked. So, uh, I... Huh?
Woman 1: Central Dogma is currently open. Group 3 personnel are expected to use Direct Gate 4.
Shinji: Like I was trying to say, they issued you a new one. Ritsuko asked me to give it to you.
Shinji: Sorry about earlier.
Ayanami: For what?
Shinji: Hey, um, aren't you scared at all? I mean, about getting back in Eva.
Ayanami: Why?
Shinji: I heard you got hurt pretty bad during the last experiment, so I was wondering if you know, you're still fine with piloting.
Ayanami: Yes. I'm fine.
Shinji: But... you don't know when it might go berserk again, right? Aren't you worried? What if it happens in the middle of a battle with an Angel and we lose?
Ayanami: Then why are you scared? Don't you have faith in his work?
Shinji: No, how could I? I mean, how could anyone? What's wrong?
Woman 1: Object under surveillance has crossed to the Odawara defense line.
Aoba: Target analysis of unknown object, complete. Pattern blue. Confirmed. It's an Angel.
Fuyutsuki: It seems the 6th Angel is finally approaching.
Ikari: So it does. Let send Unit 01 out to meet it.
Misato: Eva Unit 01, prepare for launch! Switching to anti-air interception equipment.
Aoba: Target in range. Now entering lake Tashi air space.
Hyuga: Eva Unit 01 equipped and ready to launch!
Misato: Let's move out.
Aoba: I read [] increased target energy level!
Misato: Wait, it's charging up?
Ritsuko: Oh, no! Look out!
Ritsuko: It's too much for him. Lower the sync rate!
Misato: Deploy blast shield, hurry!
Misato: Abort! Execute emergency recovery of Eva unit 01!
Hyuga: We can't! The catapult has melted. It won't operate!
Ritsuko: What about the AT-Field?
Maya: It's been raised to maximum levels. It's just barely managing to maintain integrity.
Shinji: Aah! Oh, my God! Let me go! Come on! Let me out here!
Misato: That's it! Scrap the mission! Prioritize pilot safety! Initiate plug ejection!
Ikari: No. We can't so that.
Ritsuko: If we were to eject the pilot now, the Eva's AT field will vanish and the unit will be destroyed.
Woman 1: Damage level []
Ritsuko: We'll be placing ourselves in a near hopeless situation.
Misato: Yes, but...
Ritsuko: There's no other choice... Forcible recovery of Unit 01.
Misato: Detonate the explosive bolts.
Hyuga: Target has ceased attack.
Maya: Transfer Unit 01 to the emergency Cage 99!
Misato: Medical team, stand by!
Ritsuko: Top priority goes to cooling the LCL inside the plug!
Hyuga: I'm reading a pulse but it's faint.
Ritsuko: Maximize the plug suit's life support system. Cardiac massage!
Hyuga: Yes, Ma'am.
Hyuga: Vital stabilized.
Ritsuko: Good. Now force the eject plug.
Woman 1: Entry plug force eject sequence initiated.
Ritsuko: LCL emergency release.
Maya: Yes, Ma'am.
Woman 1: LCL draining.
Misato: Where's that medical team?!
Hyuga: The target has started its attack from directly overhead. It's drilling straight down to the Geo-Front.
Misato: So this one is looking to hit us where we live. It's coming right for NERV headquarters Okay, people, analysis reports. Give me something.
Man 1: Based on earlier target data, we have surmised that the target automatically eliminates all hostiles that approach within a certain range.
Misato: Which means close quarter combat with the Evas are out of question. What about its AT Field?
Maya: It's up and running. On top of that it keeps its phase pattern constantly shifting. That's why it changes shape. It will be extremely difficult to neutralize.
Hyuga: According to Magi's calculations, it is theoretically possible to penetrate the target's AT field using a delivery of aerial N2 bombs. However, a blast of the magnitude required would destroy NERV headquarters, as well.
Ritsuko: The Magi 2 at Matsushiro came to the same conclusion. And it seems the Japanese government and U.N. are proposing attacks that involve NERV headquarters self distracting.
Misato: That's ridiculous. They obviously don't realize what's at stake here. If this place goes, it's all over for everyone.
Man 2: But Ma'am, it may already be too late. By our latest reports, the target's drill has penetrated armor level 2 with no signs of slowing down.
Aoba: There are 22 completed armor belts between us and the surface. At present rate, penetration of all remaining levels is expected to occur tomorrow morning at 6 minutes 45 seconds past midnight. Less than 10 hours 50 minutes away.
Man 1: Unit 00 has been calibrated again, so it's still not combat ready
Ritsuko: And the earlier damage to Unit 01 means it won't be fully operational for quite some time.
Misato: So things aren't looking good for us at the moment.
Ritsuko: What do you mean? We're completely out of options.
Man 1: We could try sending up a white flag.
Misato: Ha, there's a thought. But before we do that, there's one other little thing I want to look into. Those secret SSDF research papers. Intelligence still has them, right?
Ritsuko: I've gotta hand it to you. You've concocted some crazy plans before. But this one tops them all.
Misato: It's executable in nine hours and it gives us a fighting chance against the angel. Now, which part of that is crazy exactly?
Ritsuko: Operation Yashima. Let's see. You're requisitioning electricity from all over Japan so that you can charge a high power self propelled positron cannon, a top secret prototype, which you've somehow commanded from the SSDF research institute. It's incomplete. So to make up for its lack of a targeting system you're going to the Eva as a precision sniper. Nothing crazy sounding about that. I'll tell you the UN forces are one thing, but I'm amaze you manage to talk SSDF internal affairs into this.
Misato: Well, they owe me a few favors.
Ritsuko: Like this ace, set a fox to catch a fox.
Woman 1: Please be advised. Tonight, from midnight until dawn, there will be a large scale nationwide power outage. Woman 2: We ask all citizens for their cooperation during this time. Repeating.
Woman 1: Please be advised. Tonight, from midnight until dawn, there will be large scale...
Woman 2: Large scale nationwide power outage. We ask all citizens for their cooperation
Toji: Okay. Here goes.
Woman 1: Please be advised. Tonight, from midnight until dawn, there will be a large
Woman 2: there will be a large scale nationwide power outage
Woman 1: We ask all citizens
Woman 2: for their cooperation during this time.
Hyuga: The Angel has drilled just penetrated armor level seven.
Misato: How are things coming with the power system?
Woman 1: Power system will be supplied directly from the new Gotenba substation and two auxiliary locations.
Woman 2: We're currently laying superconductor supply cables towards lower Futago now.
Woman 1: Full transformer array and all lines are expected to be ready for power by 22:50 hours tonight.
Misato: And what's the progress on that sniper mount?
Mechanic: Well, it's starting to come together. Give me two more hours. We'll have it ready for you.
Misato: Eva Unit 01, status?
Maya: Maintenance crews refitting Unit01 with type G sniper equipment. Estimated time to completion: two hours.
Misato: Understood. Then I guess all that leaves at the pilot.
Ritsuko: You think he's willing? He may not want to get in again.
Fuyutsuki: How do you propose we handle the matter of Unit 01's pilot?
Ikari: We have yet to run a successful test on the dummy plugs. We'll try to keep the current pilot in place until they're more practical for use.
Fuyutsuki: Have her pilot in Unit 01? We'd be taking an enormous risk.
Ikari: We resort to whatever means are required. If we're to succeed, there are eight more Angels that must be defeated. Only then will it all begin.
Shinji: I don't like it, being an Eva pilot. It's expected that I always do well. So no one ever thanks me for it. And if I fail, everyone hates me unless I get killed. So why am I even still here? I only came because I thought something might change. That something good might happen. I didn't come here to feel miserable.
Ayanami: Is that really how you want to keep living your life? Running away when things get hard?
Shinji: My life? Why am I alive? I used to think being alive was pointless. No one needs me. Not Dad, not Misato. If I'm not in the Eva I'm not needed at all. That's why I have no choice but to pilot. That's why I have to stay here. But when I pilot the Eva...
Shinji: Same ceiling again... This all I get when I pilot the Eva. Rei? How long have you been here?
Ayanami: Listen. At 0:00 hours tomorrow Operation Yashima is scheduled to begin. Pilots Ikari and Ayanami will report at Terminal 2 19:30 hours today. 20:00 hours the Evas, Unit 01 and Unit 00, will take position. 20:05, we launch. 20:30, arrive at Fortress 2 Futago Mountain. After that, standby for further orders. Tomorrow, when the date changes, the operation will commence. Your meal.
Shinji: No thanks. I'm not hungry.
Ayanami: We leave in 90 minutes.
Shinji: They expect me to get back in that thing?
Ayanami: They do.
Shinji: It's too much. I don't ever want to be that scared again. Not like that where I can't even run away.
Ayanami: You're scared of the Eva? Fine. Stay in bed.
Shinji: Stay, but...
Ayanami: I'll pilot Unit 01 myself.
Shinji: Rei, wait!
Ayanami: Good bye.
Hyuga: Enemy's drill has now penetrating through armor level 17.
Maya: 4 hour 55 minutes until it reaches the NERV headquarter.
Woman 1: Shinsen block [] currently []
Man 1: Aerial line 3 now online in West Hakone, Shinsen and South Tonosa.

Woman 1: []
Woman 2: No problem found.
Man 1: Long-distance transmission system operating at full capacity.
Hyuga: So this is the prototype positron cannon?
Ritsuko: It's a hasty construction job, but the design is theoretically sound.
Maya: We'll be forcibly linking the zero point control to Unit 01's type G equipment.
Hyuga: Well, we'll be counting on you.
Ritsuko: Now, if only we could say the same of our pilot. Let's just hope Misato can bring him around.
Misato: Here you are. What are you doing? You missed the rendezvous time. Listen. You made up your own mind to be a part of this. Now you need to do your job like you're supposed to.
Shinji: I'm just I'm scared, okay? You all have it so easy. You're always safe underground headquarters giving out orders. I'm the only one in real danger! You wanna tell me how that's fair?
Misato: Come with me for a minute.
Misato: Fifteen years ago, in the Second Impact half of the world's population was wiped out. If we allow the Angels to bring about the Third Impact now, the human race won't survive. Not one single soul.
Shinji: I really know all this. I don't need to hear it again.
Misato: If an Angel should have ever manage to get past our defenses, and make its way all the way down here to level triple E, this whole place is set to automatically self distract. Even if it costs us our own lives to kill the Angel, we will prevent the Third Impact from happening. Every man and woman in this organization is prepared to pay that price.
Shinji: What's that? It can't be... An Eva...!?
Misato: No. What you're seeing is the origin of all life on this planet as well as the key to its end. The Second Angel, Lilith.
Shinji: Lilith...?
Misato: That's right. And it's the trigger that will set off the Third Impact. We have to protect Lilith. That's what the Evas are for. And piloting one is something only you can do. In other words, we can trust the future of mankind and all life on earth to you and that Eva.
Shinji: But that's so much to ask. I don't understand. Why me?
Misato: There is no why. That destiny happen to be yours. That's all. However, I want you to understand that you're not only one risking your life in this fight. We're all in this together.
Shinji: All right, I'll try. I'll pilot the Eva.
Misato: Now then, you each have a specific roll to perform in this operation. Now, Shinji.
Shinji: Yes?
Misato: You will be the gunner in Unit 01.
Shinji: Right.
Misato: Rei, you will be in charge of the defense in Unit 00.
Ayanami: Yes, Ma'am.
Ritsuko: The operation goal require high degree precision. There's no room for error. That being the case, since Unit 00 has been calibrated Unit 01 gives us greater advantage even in its damaged state. Listen to me Shinji. Positrons are affected by the Earth rotation, magnetic field and gravity. So they won't travel in a straight line. Don't forget to compensate for those factors. When you fire, penetrate the core and only the core.
Shinji: But how will I know where it is? What if I miss it?
Ritsuko: Don't worry. Within the target there's an object that materializes only while it's in combat mode. We've surmised that that is the core. Once you're in position, we'll enter all the specifics of the target location and fire guidance solution from our end. You just do things by the book and pull the trigger in the central reticle lines up. As long as you do your part, the machines will do the rest. I will warn you. There is only one terminal convergence point for the power. Therefore Unit 01 cannot move once it's in firing position.
Woman 1: [] 1 through [] 42 Physical mounting [] Ready firing. Requesting final confirmation []
Shinji: Meaning I can't ran away.
Ritsuko: Correct.
Shinji: Then if I miss, and the Angel fires back.
Ritsuko: No. Don't concern yourself with what ifs right now. Concentrate on destroying your target in a single shot.
Shinji: 'Cause if I miss, we're screwed. Is that it?
Ayanami: So then, I just have to protect Unit 01, is that right?
Ritsuko: Correct.
Ayanami: I understand.
Misato: It's time. You two get changed.
Shinji: Right.
Shinji: You know... There's a chance we could both die on this mission.
Ayanami: You're wrong. You won't die. Because I will protect you.
Shinji: But maybe I'm not worth protecting.
Misato: It's a message left with the PR department at headquarters.
Toji: Um... This is Toji. Hey, new kid. Uh... I mean hey, Shinji. We're counting on you, man. You can do it.
Kensuke: Hey. Kensuke here. Shinji. Hang in there, okay?
Shinji: Listen, Rei? Why do you pilot the Eva?
Ayanami: Because it's a bond.
Shinji: A bond?
Ayanami: Yes. A bond.
Shinji: With my Dad?
Ayanami: With everyone.
Shinji: You know, You're stronger than I am.
Ayanami: That's because I have nothing else. It's time. We should go. Good bye.
Woman 1: Counting down to midnight. All units are in position. Final seconds before operation launch.
Hyuga: Here we go.
Misato: Shinji, [] look. Whatever happens out there, I'm grateful to you just for trying.
Shinji: Thank you.

Shinji: I don't have Rei's determination. I'm not sure I have any qualities that would make me a good eva pilot. So why? All I did was get it to move for now. I'm protecting mankind? It's such a huge thing. I can't even get my mind around it. Why me?
Hyuga: 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Misato: Now, fire!
Ritsuko: Did we get it?!
Misato: We missed it!
Hyuga: But how? Our timing was perfect.
Maya: It's charging! Energy readings rising!
Misato: Everybody! Brace for direct impact!
Misato: How's the power system?
Hyuga: Still online. Looks it gets already starting recharge.
Misato: And the positron cannon?
Maya: Minor damage. It appears to be mostly superficial, but I'm not sure if we'll get another shot out of it.
Misato: No time to wait. We'll just have to try it. Shinji, are you alright?! Hurry! Get Unit 01 back into firing position! Now! Shinji?!
Ikari: Effective immediately. The Unit 01 pilot is relieved of duty. Order the Unit 00's pilot to take over the gunner position.
Fuyutsuki: Ikari! Are you...
Ikari: You heard me. He's clearly useless. Pull him out.
Misato: No, commander, wait! He could've run away but he got in the Eva. As long as he still chooses the fight, we should trust him to see this through.
Kensuke: Shinji, Hang in there, okay?
Toji: We're counting on you, man.
Misato: I'm asking you gotta have faith in your own son. Have faith with me that he is the Unit 01 pilot!
Ikari: I'll leave it to you. Do as you see fit.
Misato: Thank you, commander. Shinji.
Shinji: Yes...?
Misato: One more time. With the all power of Japan behind you. All of our hopes, our future, and lives along with the lives of every creature on this planet. It' all in your hands, now. Do your best.
Shinji: Right.
Hyuga: Barrel locked in position.
Man 1: We adjusting discharge system.
Woman 1: Positron cannon []
Maya: Unit 01 has discarded type G equipment. Switching all final firing system controls to manual.
Aoba: Enemy drill has reached 1-0 above headquarters.
Misato: Hurry up with the second round!
Hyuga: Fuse exchanged! Barrel cool down complete!
Woman 1: Power transmission system maintaining maximum output.
Woman 2: Positron cannon magnetic acceleration field stable. Cannon cycling up.
Man 2: [] evacuated.
Woman 1: Pressure approaching maximum tolerances.
Woman 2: New firing solution has been entered.
Woman 1: All further error compensation will be left to the pilot's manual controls.
Man 1: Pressure 0.2! []
Woman 1: []
Maya: Target energy levels are on the rise!
Misato: What? No!
Misato: Shinji!
Shinji: Rei!
Ritsuko: That shield won't hold!
Misato: Can we fire?!
Hyuga: 20 more seconds!
Shinji: Come on. Hurry. Hurry... Come on, hurry!
Misato: Yes, he did it!
Shinji: Rei! Rei!
Shinji: Rei!
Shinji: Rei! Rei, are you all right?! Rei!
Shinji: You have nothing, really? You were just... gonna leave me on that? And that whole dramatic goodbye thing? Don't do that again, okay?
Ayanami: Why are... Why are you crying? I'm sorry. I guess I don't know what to do in situations like this.
Shinji: You could start by smiling.
Kaoru: I already know. If you're waking me, the child has disappeared. and we've entered the summation stage, right?
Keel: Correct. The apocrypha of the dead sea scrolls has been passed into the book of law. The time of the covenant is close at hand.
Kaoru: The third one again, huh? You haven't changed. I'm looking forward to seeing you, Shinji Ikari.
Misato: Interim Eva Unit 05 is mobilized. Eve Unit 02 and its pilot are assigned. Eva Unit 04 ceases to exist. Eva Unit 03 undergoes a forced activation experiment. And Eva Unit 06 and its pilot come flying from the moon! As Shinji Ikari's story gradually falls apart, how would all these pieces come together? Coming soon. Evangelion 2. You can not advance. And don't worry. There will be plenty of more fan service on the way to you.
Operator: We're sorry. Due to the state of emergency that has been declared all lines are currently out of service.
Shinji: Huh. No good. My cell's not getting a signal, either. And none of the buses and trains are running. Hmm. So much for meeting here. I guess I should go find a shelter.
Pilot: Missiles away! Direct hit!
Misato: Hi there. Sorry I'm late.
Pilot: Target is still active. Now advancing on Tokyo-3, outer defense perimeter.
Operator: Air Force reports first-wave attacks ineffective.
Man 1: Launch a full assault. 4th Division! Close in and cut off its line of advance.
Man 3: Hit it with everything you've got. Bring that target down at all costs!
Man 3: What the hell?! Why is it still standing!
Man 1: The tank battalion's been wiped out. That thing is just striding over our defenses like they're not even there.
Man 3: Damn it! Then we can did it harder. We can't let it get through.
Fuyutsuki: An AT Field as we expected.
Ikari: Hmm.
Fuyutsuki: Conventional weapons won't be of any use against an Angel.
Man 2: Yes. Understood. We'll activate the contingency plan.
Misato: What the heck they'll do... Ah, crap! They're gonna use an N2 Mine?! Get down!
Man 3: We did it!
Operator: [ coming ]
Man 1: Sorry, gentleman. It seems you won't be needed here today, after all.
Woman 1: [Shockwave ].
Misato: Are you okay?
Shinji: I think I just can't get this dirt out of my mouth.
Misato: I'll take that as a yes. So ready? Push on three. Three.
Misato: Huh. Now, that wasn't so bad, was it? Thanks for helping me out.
Shinji: Come on. I should be thanking you, Miss Katsuragi.
Misato: Oh, please. It's Misato. And I guess you prefer Shinji over Mr. Ikari.
Shinji: Uh, yeah.
Man 1: What's the status of the target?
Woman 1: Target []. Activating...
Man 3: You saw that explosion. It's over.
Operator: Visuals back on line.
Man 1: Oh!
Woman 1: Target still active. []
Operator: []
Man 1: That was it. Our ace in the hole.
Man 2: It had no effect?!
Man 3: Goddamn it!
Misato: At least the car didn't get totaled. That wouldn't been bad news. I've still got 12 payments left on the loan. And I doubt my insurance covers N2 mines. Oh, I also request express lift service. So that should help us make up some time once we get there. But you're being awfully quiet. You okay?
Shinji: What? Oh, yeah.
Misato: You sure? I figured you'd be asking a million questions by now.
Shinji: Um, no, sorry...
Misato: It's nothing you have to apologize for. It's just, you know, what was that huge thing back there?" Why did I [down the skid blown to smithereens]?" Natural responses.
Shinji: Well, um... Guess I figure you wouldn't give me answers even if I ask.
Misato: So, You are the type that likes to assume the worst, huh. That's pretty jaded for a kid.
Shinji: I'm not jaded. I'm just doing what my teacher told me to do. That's all.
Misato: Oh? Well, that's fine. Incidentally, that thing we saw back there was a life form known as an "Angel."
Fuyutsuki: The 4th Angel... Its ability to regenerate itself is quite impressive.
Ikari: We're dealing with a near-perfect life form entirely self-sufficient. It's to be expected. Those who we waited for the Fruit of Life, indeed.
Fuyutsuki: Yes. They exist only to destroy us who ate the Fruit of Wisdom.
Woman 1: Warning. This gate now closing. Please stand clear.
Shinji: NERV?
Misato: Yep.
Woman 1: [] Now [] 33-1 [] station. Stations [] bypassed. Please remain [] Please [stop ]
Misato: We are a clandestine organization that answers directly to the U.N.
Shinji: That's where my dad works, isn't it?
Misato: Well, yeah. You do know what your father does, don't you?
Shinji: All what I know is what my teacher told me. He said it was something important to mankind's future.
Woman 1: District 7 fort damaged. [] Now []
Man 2: As of now, operational command will be transferred to you and your team.
Man 3: It's time to show us what you've got.
Ikari: I understood.
Man 1: At this point, it is clear that our weapons do not provide adequate means to deal with the target. Which makes you our last line of defense.
Man 2: Ikari. So tell us can you stop this thing?
Ikari: That's what NERV's for, gentleman.
Shinji: Will my dad be waiting for us once we get there?
Misato: I don't know. It depends, I guess.
Shinji: Dad...
Misato: Oh, that reminds me. Did he happen to send you an ID card?
Shinji: I think. You mean this?
Misato: Perfect. Thanks. And here. You'd better read this.
Shinji: Welcome to NERV. Wait. So does this mean... I'm gonna be working for them somehow? Huh. Yes, it wouldn't surprise me. No way Dad would've asked me to come unless he needed something.
Misato: Hmm. Sounds like you and your dad don't get along too well. I guess we have that in common.
Shinji: Oh, wow! That's... it's the real GeoFront!
Misato: Yep. And that's it. Our secret underground base, NERV HQ. The key in the effort to rebuild our world. And ensure mankind's place in it.
Misato: Let's see... From the station's west entrance, we took a right at North gate No. 3 which take us to Route 8. I swear it's like they set this place up to be confusing on purpose. But I'm pretty sure we're on the right track now, though.
Shinji: Um, are we lost?
Misato: I'm new here, okay? But, if we keep moving, we'll get there eventually.
Operator: Stage 2: Cool down complete. Maintenance crew: return to surface.
Mechanic: Pressure: stable.
Ritsuko: Finish thawing out the conductors in the left arm. I want it ready in three minutes! And don't forget to chart the apoptosis data during the procedure.
Mechanic: Roger.
Operator: Report for Dr. Akagi: Arrival of Lieutenant Colonel Katsuragi of Operation Section 1. And one additional member confirmed in Shaft S36.
Ritsuko: I knew it. She got lost again.
Misato: Oh, ah, Ritsuko!
Ritsuko: You're 12 minutes late, Lieutenant Colonel Katsuragi. Be glad I came to find you when I did. Another minute and we were going to have to send out a search party.
Misato: Eh... Sorry!
Ritsuko: So, this is the boy, I take it.
Misato: Yep.
Ritsuko: Ritsuko Akagi. Head of Project E Technology Division Section 1. It's a pleasure.
Shinji: Ah, yeah.
Ikari: I'll leave the rest to you.
Operator: Ready 600 [] operation.
Woman 1: All personnel, []
Fuyutsuki: Their first reunion in 3 years.
Aoba: Vice Commander! We've confirmed that the target is coming online.
Fuyutsuki: Understood. All personnel to battle stations! Condition 1.
Woman 1: Repeating. All personnel to battle stations. Condition 1. Prepare to intercept front target.
Man 1: [] inspected in [] based on []
Ritsuko: Shinji Ikari, I’m going to show you something. You're looking at the most advanced weapon system ever developed by man. The synthetic humanoid Evangelion. This is Unit 01, humanity's last hope for survival.
Shinji: So this is a part of my Dad's work?
Ikari: It is. It's been quite a while.
Shinji: It's you.
Ikari: We're moving out.
Misato: Moving out?! But Unit 00 is still in suspension, right? You can't seriously be considering activating Unit 01.
Ritsuko: Do you know of another option? Shinji Ikari.
Shinji: Uh?
Ritsuko: You will be the pilot.
Shinji: Huh? Dad? Why did you send for me?
Ikari: I think the reason has already been made obvious.
Shinji: So what? You expected me to just get in this thing and fight, is that it?
Ikari: Correct.
Shinji: But that's crazy! Why are you doing this? You never wanted me here before, why now?
Ikari: Because now I have a use for you.
Shinji: But why? Why me, dad?
Ikari: It would be impossible for anyone else.
Shinji: It's impossible for me. I've never even seen anything like this before. How can I be the pilot?
Ikari: You'll receive instruction.
Shinji: No! It... It just won't work! I... I'm telling you! There's no way!
Ikari: If you're going to do it, do it now. If not... Leave!
Ikari: Damn it! It knows our location.
Operator: Level 1. Armor plating 8 destroyed.
Ritsuko: Shinji. There isn't much time.
Operator: Fire alert: Block D. All personnel, please evacuate immediately.
Misato: Get in, Shinji.
Shinji: It's not fair. If I would know what he wanted this, How, why did I come?!
Misato: Why did you? Why did you come if not for this? You mustn't run away. Not from your father and especially not from yourself.
Shinji: I know that! But what you're asking is impossible!
Ikari: Fuyutsuki. Begin prepping Rei.
Fuyutsuki: But can we use her?
Ikari: She's not dead yet.
Fuyutsuki: Understood.
Ikari: Rei.
Ayanami: Yes.
Ikari: We can't use the spare. You're going out.
Ayanami: Yes.
Ritsuko: Let's move! Switch out the core unit! Set unit 01 to the L-0 type and reactivate!
Woman 1: Roger. Canceling current operation. Reconfiguring core unit.
Woman 2: Activation command initialized.
Shinji: I knew it. He didn't really need me. No one does.
Woman 1: Target has crossed the last line of defense.
Woman 2: Moving into position directly overhead.
Shinji: Are you alright?
Shinji: I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away, I mustn't run away. I mustn't run away! Fine. I'll do it. I'll be your pilot.
Woman 1: Stage three cool down, complete.

Woman 1: Interior successfully anchored.
Woman 2: Interior check. Initiate primary contact.
Woman 1: Now flooding entry plug.
Shinji: Wait! What is this?
Ritsuko: Just relax. Once your lungs are filled with LCL, it will allow blood to be oxygenated directly. You'll get used to it.
Man 1: Primary power source connect.
Woman 1: Roger that.
Woman 2: Initiating secondary contact.
Woman 1: Connecting interface.
Woman 2: A-10 neural connection, nominal.

Ritsuko: And that's without the benefit of a plug suit! Incredible.
Maya: Harmonics are within normal parameters. No instabilities detected.
Ritsuko: Right. We're clear.
Misato: We're go for launch!
Man 1: Initiating launch sequence.
Man 2: Disengage lock bolts 1.
Woman 1: Disengage confirmed.
Man 1: Retracting umbilical bridge.
Man 2: Disengage lock bolt 2.
Man 1: Disengage lock bolt 2 confirmed. Now removing restraint gear 1 and 2.
Man 2: Releasing safety, number 1 through 15.

Woman 2: Unit 01 currently traveling along path from I-2.
Woman 1: Human [].
Woman 2: Eva unit 01 has arrived at the launch terminal hub. Now locking in position. Awaiting final launch clearance. [] standing by. Opening launch gates 1 thorough 8.
Maya: Launch path is clear. All green!
Ritsuko: Prep sequence complete.
Misato: Understood. Last chance to abort.
Ikari: No. Ether we stop that Angel, or humanity's future ends here.
Fuyutsuki: Ikari, are you sure this is the right thing to do?
Misato: Launch it!
Misato: Ready, Shinji?
Shinji: Yeah, ready.
Misato: Here we go! Release final safety! Evangelion Unit 01, move out!
Ritsuko: Shinji. Just concentrate on walking for now.
Shinji: Walk...
Ritsuko: It's doing it!
Shinji: Just walk...
Misato: Shinji! Pull it together! You have to get up! Now!
Misato: Listen to me! Don't panic! Your arm isn't really being pulled! Focus!
Ritsuko: Where is the Eva's defenses?
Maya: System unresponsive.
Hyuga: The field has deployed.
Ritsuko: But why?!
Maya: Left arm damaged!
Aoba: Link 2 cut!
Misato: No! Shinji!
Maya: We have a clack on the cranial plating!
Ritsuko: The armor won't last much longer.
Hyuga: Head damage! Extent unknown.
Woman1: Situation critical.
Misato: What's the status?
Maya: The synchronization graph is inverting! Pulse reversing!
Ritsuko: Break the circuit! Try to stop it!
Maya: No good! It's rejecting the signal. We're locked out!
Misato: How Shinji?
Hyuga: No response. Condition unknown.
Aoba: Unit 01 has completely shut down.
Ritsuko: Misato!
Misato: So that's it! Abort mission! Pilot safety is top priority! Get him out of there now! Eject the plug!
Maya: It's no use! All remote links have been severed.
Misato: No, Shinji...
Woman 1: Unit 01 reactivating.
Maya: So, what?! That shouldn't be possible.
Woman 2: Unit 01 [] abnormal power.
Misato: Oh, no...
Ritsuko: It's gone Berserk?!
Fuyutsuki: We've done it.
Ritsuko: It's an AT-Field?
Misato: This is bad. As long as the aegis [got that fields up]
Ritsuko: You won't to be able to touch it!
Hyuga: Left arm restored!
Misato: No way!
Maya: Unit 01 has also deployed an AT-Field! It's neutralizing the phase space.
Ritsuko: My God! It's breaking right through it
Misato: It just tore that AT-Field like it was nothing...
Misato: Where's Eva?
Ritsuko: Now we've seen it.
Misato: The Eva's true form.
Yui: So, have you picked out a name?
Ikari: If it's a boy, we name him Shinji. If it's a girl, Rei.
Yui: Shinji... Rei...
Ayanami: Shinji... Shinji... Shinji... Ayanami... Rei... Rei... Rei... Ikari...? No... Rei Ayanami.
Shinji: I don't recognize this ceiling.
Keel: The fourth Angel's attack and subsequent destruction, the acquisition of the Third Child, Eva Unit 01 successful deployment, all according to plan, it would seem.
Seele 04: The astronomical cost of repaired Unit 01 was an unexpected setback.
Seele 05: Compared to Unit 00's suspension, however, this is a minor concern.
Ritsuko: The recovery operation for Eva Unit 01 has been completed. It's currently been holding in Cage 6. The inspection of the unit is set take place today 10:00 hours.
Misato: What about the mission recorder?
Ritsuko: Nothing. No data. It went offline when Eva went berserk.
Misato: So, we won't know the cause which means this could happen again. And next time, we might not be so lucky.
Keel: How serious was this malfunction? Will the unit be ready when the 5th Angel appears?
Ikari: You needn't be concerned. Now the unit 01 is assigned to active duty, unit 02 and its designated pilot are undergoing evaluation in Germany.
Seele 04: See to it Unit 03 and the rest are also completed on schedule.
Seele 03: We are accounting on you not to disappoint us. It's your duty to ensure that NERV and the Evas are utilized appropriately.
Seele 06: Precisely. Annihilating the Angels is only one part of our covenant with Lilith.
Keel: The Human Instrumentality Project. This is our ultimate goal. I would advise you not to lose sight of it.
Ikari: I understand. Rest assured. SEELE's plans will soon come to fruition.
Ritsuko: The disintegration of the angel after it lost the AT field. It's beyond anything we anticipated.
Maya: It's like staring into the bloody pools of hell. It reminds me the second impact, you know. Not a good feeling.
Misato: The Evas can beat Angels. That fact that we're even here to see this means that mankind has a sliver of hope.
Ritsuko: It seems the pilot shouldering that hope has just woken up.
Operator: Paging Dr. Ugai, Dr. Ugai, Internal Medicine 1 please contact Dr. Azuma in Surgery 1 immediately.
Woman 1: The medical conference on incident "b" will be held as scheduled. All closing []. [] to conference room 2.
Misato: Alone? Seriously?
Officer: That's right. His room will be in Block 6 up ahead. I trust you have no problems with that.
Shinji: No.
Misato: What? Really? You're okay with this?
Shinji: Yeah, it's fine. I'd rather be alone. It's, well, it's what I'm used to.
Ritsuko: What did you say?!
Misato: You heard me. I said I decided to let Shinji stay at my place. What's the big deal? I cleared it with the higher-ups. You don't have to worry about a thing. I promise I won't put the moves on him.
Ritsuko: I should hope not! Why would you even say something like that? Honestly! It's nothing [but a joke on your sense ]
Misato: Oh yeah, she never did have a sense of humor.
Misato: So, what do you say? You ready to live it up tonight?
Shinji: Uh, I, I don't know.
Misato: Come on. Let me throw a welcome a party for my new roomie. It'll be fun!
Woman 1: Is it true? You're really moving?
Woman 2: We sure are. I mean, I never dreamed that this place would really turn into war zone. It's just come to dangerous.
Woman 1: I know what you mean.
Woman 2: My husband telling me that the children and I should evacuate, too. And did you hear there were over 100 relocation notices filed this morning alone.
Woman 1: It doesn't surprise me. I don't care how much they fortify this city. When it comes down to it, you can't count on NERV for anything.
Woman 2: Oh, I get shivers just thinking about yesterday, how close we came?
Woman 1: I know, right?
Misato: I hope you don't mind. But we need to make a tiny little side trip.
Shinji: Where are we going?
Misato: Somewhere nice. You'll see.
Shinji: From up here. The city just looks so lonely.
Misato: It's time.
Shinji: Amazing... The buildings, they're growing.
Misato: This whole city is the fortress built to intercept Angels. It's our city, Tokyo-3. Take a good look down there. You see it? That's the city you protected.
Misato: Oh, good. It looks like they delivered your stuff already. I just moved in here the other day myself. So I still have some unpacking to do, too. Well, come in.
Shinji: Yeah... Okay. Thanks for having me.
Misato: Shinji. This is your home now. Just come in.
Shinji: Well. Home, sweet home.
Misato: Home, sweet home. Oh, sorry it's a little messy. Like I said. I'm just settling in.
Shinji: This is... a little messy?
Misato: Hey, While you're out there would you put the food away in the fridge?
Shinji: Ah, yeah, sure! Ice... Snacks... Nothing but beer? What did I get myself into?
Misato: Alright! Let's dig in!
Shinji: Uh, okay...
Misato: Ah! Yeahhhh. I tell you, Shinji. It's the moments like these that makes it all worthwhile, don't you think? You're not eating. I know it's all microwave food, but it's good, trust me.
Shinji: Well... it's just... I don't usually eat stuff like this, so…
Misato: Are you being picky!
Shinji: Uh, no, I... I just meant... looks good...
Ritsuko: You're kind and nice, right? Two roomies sitting down to a hot home cooked meal.
Shinji: Uh... Right.
Misato: Good! Cause from now on this is your place as much as it is mine. So kick back and and make yourself comfortable, okay?
Shinji: Uh, alright.
Misato: Huh. Right, right, right, right. Is that all you know how to say? Stop out of it! Can't you just agree on everything anyone tells you?
Shinji: Right.
Misato: Uh, anyway. I know just the thing you need. Ha, ha, ha! A nice hot bath, to clear your head. Wash all those worries down the drain.
Shinji: Wow. M-M-Misato! There's a thing!
Misato: A what?
Shinji: It, I've imagined, Well, I don't know, it's, um.
Misato: Oh, that thing. He's a bird actually, a warm water penguin.
Shinji: Since when do your birds like that even exist?!
Misato: Since always, I guess, though they're rare these days. His name is Pen-pen. I should have mentioned to you he lives with me. Just think of him as another roomie. And, uh, now that you've met, what don't you go cover up?
Shinji: Oh!
Misato: Maybe I was acting just a little too cheerly. Huh, but it was all I could do to keep a straight face.
Shinji: Misato Katsuragi... She's not a bad person. She means well.
Misato: Wash all those worries down the drain.
Shinji: But for me baths only bring back washes of bad memories.
Ritsuko: How did Rei seem this afternoon? You went to see her today, didn't you? At the hospital?
Ikari: She will be fine. She'll be ready when it's time to reactivate Unit 00. That's all that matters.
Ritsuko: Are what about your son? Psychologically speaking, he seems rather unstable.
Ikari: Let him be. If nothing else, it gives us an excuse to bring Unit 00 out of suspension.
Ritsuko: And We'll act in accordance with Lieutenant Colonel Katsuragi's suggestion.
Misato: The Third Child. Suddenly selected without a preliminary report. And the timing was the Angel's attack. The same day he was scheduled to arrive. Not only that but the fact that he is Commander Ikari's son. The coincidences just keep stacking up. Yet we did defeat the Angel, That has to count for something. But I still don't like it.
Shinji: Another ceiling I don't recognize. I guess that's no surprise. There's no place in this entire city I'm familiar with.
Misato: Shinji. This is your home now.
Shinji: Why am I here?
Misato: Shinji? I'm opening the door. Okay? Listen. I forgot to tell you something. What you did the other day was a good thing, an admirable thing. You should be proud. Okay, Shinji. Hang in there.
Toji: Sorry about that, new kid. Thing is I owed you one and I had to do it. It just wasn't gonna feel right until I did.
Kensuke: I apologize. Don't take it personally though. Toji's sister got hurt in that mess in other day. Well, I guess I'll you see around.
Shinji: What I do? It's not like I wanted to be the pilot.
Shinji: An admirable thing. Admirable by who? Why do I have to get beat up just because I was piloting the Eva?
Ritsuko: Are you ready, Shinji?
Shinji: Yes.
Ritsuko: As you know, all Angels have a part called the core. It is their one weak spot. Destroying it is the only way we can physically eradicate an Angel. This is what you'll aim for. Center in on the target and then pull the trigger.
Shinji: Repeat this drill until you learn to do it by feel.
Shinji: Right.
Ritsuko: Yes, fairly good. We'll continue practicing in the induction mode for now.
Shinji: Right.
Maya: I must say I'm a bit surprised that Shinji agreed to be a pilot again.
Ritsuko: I think he is just the type that does what he's told. I guess that until now that how he's gotten through life.
Shinji: Centering in on the target and then pull the trigger. Centering in on the target and then pull the trigger. Centering in on the target and then pull the trigger. Centering in on the target and then pull the trigger.
Ritsuko: That reminds me. I heard Shinji was hit by a classmate on his first day of school? Are you sure we have adequate security for the pilots?
Misato: The intelligence department has them under constant surveillance. He was never in any real danger. Besides, I think it's better not to interfere in his private life if we can avoid it.
Ritsuko: Says the woman who is living with them. His maintenance is still a part of your job, isn't it?
Misato: Technically speaking. He's just so much more naive and complicated than I expected.
Ritsuko: Complaining already? You were the one who insisted on taking him in.
Misato: Oh, shut up.
Ritsuko: You're right though. From what I've been able to tell of him Shinji's personality may not be geared toward making friends. Have you ever heard of the "Hedgehog's dilemma"?
Misato: Hedgehogs? Those little spiky critters?
Ritsuko: See, with hedgehogs even if they want to get close to one another for warmth the closer they get, the more they risk hurting each other with the quills on their body. It's really no different for people. Shinji is worried about what will happen if he lets someone get too close. He's afraid of that pain and that's made him pull away completely
Girl 1: Can you believe it? Aren't you crazy right?
Girl 2: I know.
Misato: Well, he'll figure it out someday. The part of growing up is allowing yourself to get hurt sometimes, to keep letting people in until you finally find that safe distance where you can be close without hurting each other too much.
Ritsuko: I hope you're right.
Misato: Geez, when are they gonna approve the budget to repair this part of building B anyway?
Ritsuko: Maintaining the Eva's and keeping them equipped takes top priority. So, probably never.
Misato: They could at least spring for seat warmers.
Ayanami: There's an emergency. Come on. Let's go.
Aoba: We have a [confirmed] visual on the object.
Woman 1: E747, target verified.
Ritsuko: Analysis Pattern Blue. It's here. The fifth Angel.
Misato: Now! Battle stations: condition 1.
Hyuga: Roger that. Preparing city for ground-to-air interception.

Woman 1: Students, please stay with your own class. All other residents, please proceed to your designated block. [] 7 lost children []
Kensuke: Man, they're doing it again.
Toji: Where they just post some goofy message?
Kensuke: It's what you call a news is blackout. They don't want civilians like us to see what's going on. Major event like this doesn't seem fair.
Ritsuko: A waste of tax payer's money.
Misato: I guess these military types just won't get satisfied until they fire all their bullets.
Aoba: Japanese government. They're requesting Eva mobilization.
Misato: They just don't get it, do they? We'll mobilize weather they request it or not.
Woman 1: LCL charged.
Woman 2: Crimp lock released.
Shinji: Dad isn't even watching. Why am I piloting this thing again? When everyone hates me for it.
Kensuke: Hey, I need to talk you about something private okay?
Toji: Yeah, what?
Kensuke: Come on, now.
Toji: Fine, whatever.
Horaki: Right, so then []
Toji: Hey, Class Rep!
Horaki: What?
Toji: We got to go. You know, take a leak.
Horaki: Really. Oh, come on. You guys should have done that earlier.
Toji: So, what do you want?
Kensuke: I got to see it. I mean just once before I die!
Toji: The shootout up there?
Kensuke: This is it. The real deal! And there's no telling when another one of those things will come along.
Toji: Kensuke, man, I don't know.
Kensuke: But this might be the only chance we have ever get. Come on, please. I just need your help with the lock.
Toji: Um, all right. You know, you can be pretty damn pushy sometimes. Is anyone ever told you that...
Misato: Shinji, it's time to mobilize. Are you ready?
Shinji: Yeah.
Ritsuko: Listen closely. As you neutralize enemy's AT Field, fire a volley with the gatling gun. Do it just like we practiced, and you'll be fine.
Shinji: Right.
Misato: Move out!
Kensuke: [] Definitely makes all the trouble we're gonna get in worth it.
Aoba: Oh, here's the main event!
Aoba: What so...
Maya: A.T. Field deployed.
Shinji: Center on target, and then pull the trigger.
Ritsuko: Just like we practiced, all right, Shinji?
Shinji: Center on the target, and pull the trigger. Right.
Misato: Check your fire. You lose the target in the blast cloud!
Toji: Hell, he's already getting thrashed.
Kensuke: He'll be fine.
Misato: We're sending up a spare rifle! Take it! Shinji? Shinji!
Kensuke: Wow. Maybe he's still not seeing straight from that beating you gave him.
Toji: You shut up!
Aoba: Umbilical Cable severed!
Hyuga: Eva has switched to internal power!
Maya: Operational time: 4 minutes 53 seconds!
Aoba: It's coming this way!
Misato: Shinji, are you all right? Shinji! What's the damage?
Hyuga: None. All combat system is operational.
Misato: What's the?! Toji, Shinji's classmates?!
Ritsuko: How are they doing out there?
Toji: Why the hell doesn't he fight it?!
Kensuke: I think he might be because we're here. He can't fight with us in the way.
Maya: Unit 01 has 3 minutes 28 seconds operational time remaining.
Woman1: Contact surface melting. Damage at 58%.
Misato: Shinji! Let those two in the cockpit. Once you have them secured, we will retreat and regroup. Go, now!
Misato: You two, get in, quickly!
Toji: What the hell?! There's water here?
Kensuke: Oh, my camera!
Woman 1: [] closing now.
Maya: Contact surface, protective film 3 melting.
Misato: Now hurry! Get out there! Retreat!

Maya: Eva Unit 01 has come to a halt.
Aoba: Target has completely disintegrated.
Misato: Shinji, why did you ignore my orders up there?
Shinji: I'm sorry.
Misato: I am your superior officer in charge of your missions.
Shinji: Yeah.
Misato: Which means you have an obligation to follow my orders no matter what. Do you understand?
Shinji: Yeah.
Misato: Then make sure this never happens again.
Shinji: Yeah.
Misato: Are you even listening to what I am saying?
Shinji: Yeah, I hear you. Loud and clear. But what does it matter anymore? We won. Look. I'll pilot it when you tell me to. That's all you really want, isn't it?
Misato: We've done here. Go home and get some rest. I'll be there soon.
Announcement: Next station is Nagao Pass. Nagao Pass. Please exit through the doors on the right.
Woman 1: Try our special service to melt away the stress from your day. Try our special service to []
Misato: So he is not coming home. Damn that boy.
Teacher: Ikari:, Shinji Ikari. Hmm. So our newest student is already absent. Well, I suppose we can forgive him just this once. As the rest of you it's time for a pop quiz.
Shinji: That's it! I'm ready all right. You can take me back to Misato now.
Misato: So, do you feel better after your little walk? Was it worth it?
Shinji: Not really. But I don't care anymore not about any of it. Even if I did, it's not like I have any choice. I am an Eva pilot now, nothing else. That's what Dad call me here for, right? It's what you all want. So you win. I'll pilot it. If that's what makes everyone happy, then fine.
Misato: And what about you? Is this what you want?
Shinji: I know I'm not cut out for this. I mean, is that really so hard for anyone to see? But until Rei gets better, you and Dad and everyone expects me to...
Misato: That's enough! This isn't about what other people want. This is your choice. You decide for yourself whether or not you gonna pilot Eva. If you don't want to do it, leave. You're free to go at anytime you like. It's up to you.
Fuyutsuki: I had my doubts. But in the end, your son behaved exactly as you predicted he would.
Ikari: Yes. Next I'll have him begin getting closer to Rei. The plan will proceed, unchanged.
Fuyutsuki: Following the script we laid out for these children fourteen years ago. The story of their lives. It's almost cruel.
Toji: Just hurry up and do it. Come on! What are you waiting for? Just do it. I'm not gonna feel right. Come on!
Kensuke: I know he means that too. Go on! You'll be doing him a favor.
Toji: Okay. Now we're even. Sorry I decked you the other day.
Girl 1: Go, go hurry! Better hurry.
Girl 2: [] it's not for you so []
Boy 1: All right! Go, go!
Boy 2: Take this shot!
Boy 3: Hey, come on, guys.
Girl 1: Ew, the boys are down there gawking again.
Girl 2: Gross.
Girl 1: They're so bad.
Girl 2: Look at Toji. those pervy little eyes.
Ritsuko: Rei Ayanami. Fourteen years old. She was the first qualified pilot chosen in according to the Marduk Report. The First Child that designated a pilot for the Evangelion prototype Unit 00. Beyond that, her history is blank. It's been completely erased from the official records.
Shinji: And my Dad? When she got hurt he's the one who saved her?
Maya: Abnormal in activation system.
Woman 1: Irregularity detected in stage 3.
Woman 2: [] of internal rejection in central nerve element.
Maya: Interference in main transmission system! Pulse reversing! We can't stop it!
Woman 1: Direct monitors disconnected.
Hyuga: Interference in main transmission system!
Maya: Plug depth unstable. It' being drawn towards Eva.
Woman 1: [] is abnormal.
Ritsuko: Abort contact! Emergency shut down circuit 1 through 6.
Maya: It's not working. The signal isn't getting thorough. Unit 00 is out of control!
Ikari: Abort the experiment. Cut the main power.
Ritsuko: Yes, sir!
Woman: All condition unknown.
Ritsuko: Unit 00 has switched to auxiliary power.
Maya: 35 seconds to complete system shutdown.
Man 1: Automatic dampening system still not responding.
Ritsuko: Sir, it's dangerous! Get back!
Maya: The emergency auto rejection activating.
Ikari: Shut it down!
Man 2: We still [] control!
Ritsuko: Special Bakelite! Hurry...
Ikari: No, Rei!
Maya: Ten seconds to complete system shutdown! 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Unit 00 is now offline.
Ikari: Rei, are you alright? Rei! I understand.
Misato: That does really strike me at something Ikari would do.
Ritsuko: His part in it has been expunged from the official report, but it definitely happened.
Misato: And even after all that, he still wants to take Unit 00 out of suspension. Are we being a bit hasty?
Ritsuko: The Angels have forced our hand. We need every weapon in our arsenal that we can get.
Misato: That's true, but... still...
Ritsuko: Rei's reactivation tests have already been completed. And there are no problems with Unit 00 itself. All that's left is to calibrate the neural connections and then…
Misato: And she'll immediately be put back on active duty, huh?
Shinji: Rei... She's always alone. Why is that?
Maya: Eva Unit 01 entering stage 3 cool down.
Woman1: Initial harmonix [] [] all green. [] clear.
Maya: Cage 6 proceed system shutdown checklist, pages 1 to 3.

Hyuga: Stage 3 Cool down complete. Heat levels normal.
Woman 1: Code 1 through
Woman 2: 150 minute countdown until restart of unit-00 transmission test.
Ritsuko: Roger that. Routine synchronization test, Program 508 completed. Thank you for your time, Shinji. So, how is it living with him?
Misato: It's alright. I'm getting used to it.
Ritsuko: Then things are settling in. This isn't your first time living with a guy, as I recall?
Misato: Nah. But this isn't anything like 8 years ago. It's not a romantic thing for one.
Ritsuko: I don't know about that. He could be. Shinji is only staying here because of you.
Misato: No. I'd say, it's mostly for his Dad. He's hoping his Dad will finally notice him, maybe get to know him have any kind of contact, just one little word of praise. That's all it would take and let him know he is not alone.
Ritsuko: So these issues with his father I'm guessing you can relate?
Misato: I just don't get it. How can Commander Ikari be so disinterested in his own son? He has no problem talking to Rei. It just doesn't seem fair.
Ritsuko: But is it that unusual? Powerful men are notoriously self absorbed.
Misato: That still doesn't make it any easier to watch, you know?
Ritsuko: At any rate I think it's time I was getting back.
Misato: Always the good little workaholic, aren't you?
Ritsuko: Oh, yeah. As long as you're going home, take these. Shinji's official security card and Rei's renewal. I missed her earlier. If you could, ask Shinji to give it to her tomorrow.
Misato: Yeah, sure.
Shinji: Rei Ayanami. Why does Dad smile when he sees her? Why won't he smile for me?
Shinji: Anybody home? Uh, Shinji. Shinji Ikari. Rei? Uh, I'm coming in.
Shinji: Does Rei wear glasses?
Shinji: Rei, I, I was just... I wasn't snooping. I…
Ayanami: Would you get off me?
Shinji: Ah! I was, uh...
Ayanami: What?
Shinji: Um... Uh, wait, I, but I, I... was just... I... I was um, I was asked to... uh, to, what was it? Oh, the card! There's a card they, uh, they asked me to bring it. So, uh, so... It's not like I mean to... Oh, Ritsuko, she, uh, she, she forgot to give it to you. H, honest, and, and no one answered when I rang the doorbell. And, and the door was unlocked. So, uh, I... Huh?
Woman 1: Central Dogma is currently open. Group 3 personnel are expected to use Direct Gate 4.
Shinji: Like I was trying to say, they issued you a new one. Ritsuko asked me to give it to you.
Shinji: Sorry about earlier.
Ayanami: For what?
Shinji: Hey, um, aren't you scared at all? I mean, about getting back in Eva.
Ayanami: Why?
Shinji: I heard you got hurt pretty bad during the last experiment, so I was wondering if you know, you're still fine with piloting.
Ayanami: Yes. I'm fine.
Shinji: But... you don't know when it might go berserk again, right? Aren't you worried? What if it happens in the middle of a battle with an Angel and we lose?
Ayanami: Tell me. You're Commander Ikari's son, aren't you?
Shinji: Mm hmm.
Ayanami: Then why are you scared? Don't you have faith in his work?
Shinji: No, how could I? I mean, how could anyone? What's wrong?
Woman 1: Object under surveillance has crossed to the Odawara defense line.
Aoba: Target analysis of unknown object, complete. Pattern blue. Confirmed. It's an Angel.
Fuyutsuki: It seems the 6th Angel is finally approaching.
Ikari: So it does. Let send Unit 01 out to meet it.
Misato: Eva Unit 01, prepare for launch! Switching to anti-air interception equipment.
Aoba: Target in range. Now entering lake Tashi air space.
Hyuga: Eva Unit 01 equipped and ready to launch!
Misato: Let's move out.
Aoba: I read [] increased target energy level!
Misato: Wait, it's charging up?
Ritsuko: Oh, no! Look out!
Ritsuko: It's too much for him. Lower the sync rate!
Misato: Deploy blast shield, hurry!
Misato: Abort! Execute emergency recovery of Eva unit 01!
Hyuga: We can't! The catapult has melted. It won't operate!
Ritsuko: What about the AT-Field?
Maya: It's been raised to maximum levels. It's just barely managing to maintain integrity.
Shinji: Aah! Oh, my God! Let me go! Come on! Let me out here!
Misato: That's it! Scrap the mission! Prioritize pilot safety! Initiate plug ejection!
Ikari: No. We can't so that.
Ritsuko: If we were to eject the pilot now, the Eva's AT field will vanish and the unit will be destroyed.
Woman 1: Damage level []
Ritsuko: We'll be placing ourselves in a near hopeless situation.
Misato: Yes, but...
Ritsuko: There's no other choice... Forcible recovery of Unit 01.
Misato: Detonate the explosive bolts.
Hyuga: Target has ceased attack.
Maya: Transfer Unit 01 to the emergency Cage 99!
Misato: Medical team, stand by!
Ritsuko: Top priority goes to cooling the LCL inside the plug!
Hyuga: I'm reading a pulse but it's faint.
Ritsuko: Maximize the plug suit's life support system. Cardiac massage!
Hyuga: Yes, Ma'am.
Hyuga: Vital stabilized.
Ritsuko: Good. Now force the eject plug.
Woman 1: Entry plug force eject sequence initiated.
Ritsuko: LCL emergency release.
Maya: Yes, Ma'am.
Woman 1: LCL draining.
Misato: Where's that medical team?!
Hyuga: The target has started its attack from directly overhead. It's drilling straight down to the Geo-Front.
Misato: So this one is looking to hit us where we live. It's coming right for NERV headquarters Okay, people, analysis reports. Give me something.
Man 1: Based on earlier target data, we have surmised that the target automatically eliminates all hostiles that approach within a certain range.
Misato: Which means close quarter combat with the Evas are out of question. What about its AT Field?
Maya: It's up and running. On top of that it keeps its phase pattern constantly shifting. That's why it changes shape. It will be extremely difficult to neutralize.
Hyuga: According to Magi's calculations, it is theoretically possible to penetrate the target's AT field using a delivery of aerial N2 bombs. However, a blast of the magnitude required would destroy NERV headquarters, as well.
Ritsuko: The Magi 2 at Matsushiro came to the same conclusion. And it seems the Japanese government and U.N. are proposing attacks that involve NERV headquarters self distracting.
Misato: That's ridiculous. They obviously don't realize what's at stake here. If this place goes, it's all over for everyone.
Man 2: But Ma'am, it may already be too late. By our latest reports, the target's drill has penetrated armor level 2 with no signs of slowing down.
Aoba: There are 22 completed armor belts between us and the surface. At present rate, penetration of all remaining levels is expected to occur tomorrow morning at 6 minutes 45 seconds past midnight. Less than 10 hours 50 minutes away.
Man 1: Unit 00 has been calibrated again, so it's still not combat ready
Ritsuko: And the earlier damage to Unit 01 means it won't be fully operational for quite some time.
Misato: So things aren't looking good for us at the moment.
Ritsuko: What do you mean? We're completely out of options.
Man 1: We could try sending up a white flag.
Misato: Ha, there's a thought. But before we do that, there's one other little thing I want to look into. Those secret SSDF research papers. Intelligence still has them, right?
Ritsuko: I've gotta hand it to you. You've concocted some crazy plans before. But this one tops them all.
Misato: It's executable in nine hours and it gives us a fighting chance against the angel. Now, which part of that is crazy exactly?
Ritsuko: Operation Yashima. Let's see. You're requisitioning electricity from all over Japan so that you can charge a high power self propelled positron cannon, a top secret prototype, which you've somehow commanded from the SSDF research institute. It's incomplete. So to make up for its lack of a targeting system you're going to the Eva as a precision sniper. Nothing crazy sounding about that. I'll tell you the UN forces are one thing, but I'm amaze you manage to talk SSDF internal affairs into this.
Misato: Well, they owe me a few favors.
Ritsuko: Like this ace, set a fox to catch a fox.
Woman 1: Please be advised. Tonight, from midnight until dawn, there will be a large scale nationwide power outage.
Woman 2: We ask all citizens for their cooperation during this time. Repeating.
Woman 1: Please be advised. Tonight, from midnight until dawn, there will be large scale...
Woman 2: Large scale nationwide power outage. We ask all citizens for their cooperation
Toji: Okay. Here goes.
Woman 1: Please be advised. Tonight, from midnight until dawn, there will be a large
Woman 2: there will be a large scale nationwide power outage
Woman 1: We ask all citizens
Woman 2: for their cooperation during this time.
Hyuga: The Angel has drilled just penetrated armor level seven.
Misato: How are things coming with the power system?
Woman 1: Power system will be supplied directly from the new Gotenba substation and two auxiliary locations.
Woman 2: We're currently laying superconductor supply cables towards lower Futago now.
Woman 1: Full transformer array and all lines are expected to be ready for power by 22:50 hours tonight.
Misato: And what's the progress on that sniper mount?
Mechanic: Well, it's starting to come together. Give me two more hours. We'll have it ready for you.
Misato: Eva Unit 01, status?
Maya: Maintenance crews refitting Unit01 with type G sniper equipment. Estimated time to completion: two hours.
Misato: Understood. Then I guess all that leaves at the pilot.
Ritsuko: You think he's willing? He may not want to get in again.
Fuyutsuki: How do you propose we handle the matter of Unit 01's pilot?
Ikari: We have yet to run a successful test on the dummy plugs. We'll try to keep the current pilot in place until they're more practical for use.
Fuyutsuki: Worst case, there's always brainwashing.
Ikari: No, it doesn't work out, we'll use Rei.
Fuyutsuki: Have her pilot in Unit 01? We'd be taking an enormous risk.
Ikari: We resort to whatever means are required. If we're to succeed, there are eight more Angels that must be defeated. Only then will it all begin.
Shinji: I don't like it, being an Eva pilot. It's expected that I always do well. So no one ever thanks me for it. And if I fail, everyone hates me unless I get killed. So why am I even still here? I only came because I thought something might change. That something good might happen. I didn't come here to feel miserable.
Ayanami: Is that really how you want to keep living your life? Running away when things get hard?
Shinji: My life? Why am I alive? I used to think being alive was pointless. No one needs me. Not Dad, not Misato. If I'm not in the Eva I'm not needed at all. That's why I have no choice but to pilot. That's why I have to stay here. But when I pilot the Eva...
Shinji: Same ceiling again... This all I get when I pilot the Eva. Rei? How long have you been here?
Ayanami: Listen. At 0:00 hours tomorrow Operation Yashima is scheduled to begin. Pilots Ikari and Ayanami will report at Terminal 2 19:30 hours today. 20:00 hours the Evas, Unit 01 and Unit 00, will take position. 20:05, we launch. 20:30, arrive at Fortress 2 Futago Mountain. After that, standby for further orders. Tomorrow, when the date changes, the operation will commence. Your meal.
Shinji: No thanks. I'm not hungry.
Ayanami: We leave in 90 minutes.
Shinji: They expect me to get back in that thing?
Ayanami: They do.
Shinji: It's too much. I don't ever want to be that scared again. Not like that where I can't even run away.
Ayanami: You're scared of the Eva? Fine. Stay in bed.
Shinji: Stay, but...
Ayanami: I'll pilot Unit 01 myself.
Shinji: Rei, wait!
Ayanami: Good bye.
Hyuga: Enemy's drill has now penetrating through armor level 17.
Maya: 4 hour 55 minutes until it reaches the NERV headquarter.
Woman 1: Shinsen block [] currently []
Man 1: Aerial line 3 now online in West Hakone, Shinsen and South Tonosa.

Woman 1: []
Woman 2: No problem found.
Man 1: Long-distance transmission system operating at full capacity.
Hyuga: So this is the prototype positron cannon?
Ritsuko: It's a hasty construction job, but the design is theoretically sound.
Maya: We'll be forcibly linking the zero point control to Unit 01's type G equipment.
Hyuga: Well, we'll be counting on you.
Ritsuko: Now, if only we could say the same of our pilot. Let's just hope Misato can bring him around.
Misato: Here you are. What are you doing? You missed the rendezvous time. Listen. You made up your own mind to be a part of this. Now you need to do your job like you're supposed to.
Shinji: I'm just I'm scared, okay? You all have it so easy. You're always safe underground headquarters giving out orders. I'm the only one in real danger! You wanna tell me how that's fair?
Misato: Come with me for a minute.
Misato: Fifteen years ago, in the Second Impact half of the world's population was wiped out. If we allow the Angels to bring about the Third Impact now, the human race won't survive. Not one single soul.
Shinji: I really know all this. I don't need to hear it again.
Misato: If an Angel should have ever manage to get past our defenses, and make its way all the way down here to level triple E, this whole place is set to automatically self distract. Even if it costs us our own lives to kill the Angel, we will prevent the Third Impact from happening. Every man and woman in this organization is prepared to pay that price.
Shinji: What's that? It can't be... An Eva...!?
Misato: No. What you're seeing is the origin of all life on this planet as well as the key to its end. The Second Angel, Lilith.
Shinji: Lilith...?
Misato: That's right. And it's the trigger that will set off the Third Impact. We have to protect Lilith. That's what the Evas are for. And piloting one is something only you can do. In other words, we can trust the future of mankind and all life on earth to you and that Eva.
Shinji: But that's so much to ask. I don't understand. Why me?
Misato: There is no why. That destiny happen to be yours. That's all. However, I want you to understand that you're not only one risking your life in this fight. We're all in this together.
Shinji: All right, I'll try. I'll pilot the Eva.
Misato: Now then, you each have a specific roll to perform in this operation. Now, Shinji.
Shinji: Yes?
Misato: You will be the gunner in Unit 01.
Shinji: Right.
Misato: Rei, you will be in charge of the defense in Unit 00.
Ayanami: Yes, Ma'am.
Ritsuko: The operation goal require high degree precision. There's no room for error. That being the case, since Unit 00 has been calibrated Unit 01 gives us greater advantage even in its damaged state. Listen to me Shinji. Positrons are affected by the Earth rotation, magnetic field and gravity. So they won't travel in a straight line. Don't forget to compensate for those factors. When you fire, penetrate the core and only the core.
Shinji: But how will I know where it is? What if I miss it?
Ritsuko: Don't worry. Within the target there's an object that materializes only while it's in combat mode. We've surmised that that is the core. Once you're in position, we'll enter all the specifics of the target location and fire guidance solution from our end. You just do things by the book and pull the trigger in the central reticle lines up. As long as you do your part, the machines will do the rest. I will warn you. There is only one terminal convergence point for the power. Therefore Unit 01 cannot move once it's in firing position.
Woman 1: [] 1 through [] 42 Physical mounting [] Ready firing. Requesting final confirmation []
Shinji: Meaning I can't ran away.
Ritsuko: Correct.
Shinji: Then if I miss, and the Angel fires back.
Ritsuko: No. Don't concern yourself with what ifs right now. Concentrate on destroying your target in a single shot.
Shinji: 'Cause if I miss, we're screwed. Is that it?
Ayanami: So then, I just have to protect Unit 01, is that right?
Ritsuko: Correct.
Ayanami: I understand.
Misato: It's time. You two get changed.
Shinji: Right.
Shinji: You know... There's a chance we could both die on this mission.
Ayanami: You're wrong. You won't die. Because I will protect you.
Shinji: But maybe I'm not worth protecting.
Misato: It's a message left with the PR department at headquarters.
Toji: Um... This is Toji. Hey, new kid. Uh... I mean hey, Shinji. We're counting on you, man. You can do it.
Kensuke: Hey. Kensuke here. Shinji. Hang in there, okay?
Shinji: Listen, Rei? Why do you pilot the Eva?
Ayanami: Because it's a bond.
Shinji: A bond?
Ayanami: Yes. A bond.
Shinji: With my Dad?
