Alexander: Things are finally getting back to normal around here, I'm glad to say.
Uh? Oh, where's the lever?

Ao: Uh!

Ivica: Look, I don't like the guy either. But it's not our job to catch him.

Rebecka: The IFO teams have a very clear mission objective. Take out the Secrets before they detonate.

Ivica: We don't have the resources to be taking on extra work, kid.

Blanc: Now, now. I'm sure he feels bad enough as the views. So, but do you think his punishment should be?

Rebecka: There's no precedent for what he did. But the severity of this can't be ignored.

Blanc: You already gave him a stern talking to. That should suffice.

Rebecka: Are you serious?

Blanc: Your thoughts, Ivica? Do you agree with her?

Ivica: We should keep in mind the situation with team Goldilocks.

Blanc: Let's put this dependence.

Rebecka: What?

Blanc: I trust you, Ao. I know you gonna do the right thing. Okay? I shouldn't be telling you this but you pilots are more like my children than my employees unlike any farther worth his salt. I believe in my kids.

Ao: I wouldn't know, Sir.

Fleur: Uh. How dare you say those things to him, Dad?


Woman: Is that guy accrete of what?
Yeah.

Fleur: Hey, Ao! Doing some shopping?

Ao: Yeah.

Gazelle: Waiter. Yeah, you in the apron. [That savor. Coffee is the hot breeze stuff.]

Ao: Why are you guys trying to follow me?

Gazelle: Mm?

Ao: Oh, give it a rest, Gazelle. I'm not blind.

Gazelle: As if... Why would I follow such a pipsqueak?

Ao: Listen to me. You guys seriously need to stop following me around.

Gazelle: Ao's tough guy routine could use a little work.

Fleur: If you are trying to keep track of his whereabouts you and your friends are approaching with the all subtlety of a bull in a China shop.

Gazelle: Well, maybe we're told not to be subtle.

Fleur: Mm? Ah! You're being obvious about it to trying to put the squeeze on him. If you're just following orders someone must have issued then. It was the president, wasn't it?

Gazelle: Speaking of, what's with all the static between you and your old man, huh? Just like Ao. He isn't in the same boat with his old man.


Blanc: We have a formal request for intervention.

Stanley: Mobilize at once, Ivica.

Ivica: Consider it done soon.

Blanc: Faisal Arabia, huh?

Stanley: As if that country want to be boiled in enough drama.

Operator: Mr. Blanc, you have a call from the Allied Forces.

Blanc: Speak of the devil and he shall appear. Transfer the call. I'll take it in my office.


Secretary: Is one hell of a hit your team took in Columbia, hey Christophe? And that attack on your headquarters. You had it rough.

Blanc: I appreciate your concern, Mr. Secretary.

Secretary: You forgive my saying that the Generation Bleu is giving me a migraine.

Blanc: I'm afraid I don't follow.

Secretary: See, it's [the addenda of] Nirvash of yours. Some of our congressmen have latched onto the idea that it's the Mark I which was in our custody until recently when it disappeared without a trace.

Blanc: Really?

Secretary: Yes, really. They are going to take the kids to the media and lean on the President until they get the results. It's an election year so expect the full dog-and-pony show.

Blanc: Ain't that a bear. Fortunately, our Nirvash and your Mark I are two utterly different crafts.

Secretary: Yes. But of course. That said if the Generation Bleu could do us a bit of a favor we'll be much more inclined to stand down.

Blanc: Faisal Arabia is the favor, I assume?


Rebecka: The Secret is still a ways out. Will retrieving the Quartz be our priority?

Ivica: And if the Secret just suddenly hit the gas? What are you gonna do then?

Rebecka: I'll just...

Ivica: Once the Secret has manifested it in the aerospace, you know that there's only one proper course of action.

Ao: Huh? What are you trying to say? Those guys followed me 'cause the President of Generation Bleu put 'em up to it?

Fleur: More or less.

Ao: What's the heck. And after all that vow he spouted about trusting me like I was his own kid. What does he get off saying that stuff and then treating me this way?

Elena: Having a feed you that mind is a right passage around here. (Chuckles) Unlike any father worth his salt. I believe in my kids.

Ao: Ha, ha, ha.

Fleur: Saying that in front of his own daughter takes a lot of nerve.

Ao: Huh? His who?

Elena: Weird. Did we really never tell you?

Ao: Huh?

Elena: Miss Fleur here is our company President's daughter.

Fleur: Huh.

Ao: What?

Rebecka: Enough. I don't chatter. Georg has managed to identify the Secret.

Georg: Indeed. This Secret matches the descriptions of an unidentified flying object that appeared in the skies over Philadelphia in 1752. According to historians, its appearance was a copy by series of lightning strikes that damaged the surrounding area. An interesting phenomenon of lightning. Electrons where are in difference of electric potential are rising through space that exceeds the dielectric restriction.

Stanley: Bring the Triton to base ASAP. We're aborting the mission effective immediately.

Ivica: Is this your idea of a joke?

Stanley: Blanc just hold the plan.

Ao: What? This is Blank's doing? But the Secret is still out there.

Ivica: Turn around!

Ao: What do you mean? Come on, Chief. Were you giving up just like that? What the hell?!

Rebecka: Bringing her back to base.

Blanc: Here's the game plan.

Fleur: They made some kind of backroom deal. That's the only reason I can think up.

Rebecka: And the only group who can put the screws to GB's President like that is the government of the United States.

Ao: Why would America do that?

Georg: The location of occurence Scub, Faisal Arabia, is the most anti-America country in all of the Middle East. The US believes that they engage in state-sponsored terrorism, and tensions between the two countries could erupt into full scale war without much provocation. Faisal Arabia is thoroughly anti-US segment [full of] the schism among Royals of the former Saudi-

Rebecka: If the Secret is allowed to make contact with the Scub the explosion will deal a crippling blow to the country.

Ao: Ah.

Rebecka: Plus it will deprive them on the chance at their own Coral Plants. That's why.

Ao: He's playing politics?! People could die. Why is Blanc rolling over on this?!

Fleur: Because they offered him something, Ao. Something worth turning a blind eye to human suffering.

Rebecka: Just because you don't like him doesn't mean he starts...

Ivica: That's enough.

Ao: So that's it? Fly back home like nothing's wrong? I'm not gonna sit back and let these people die!

Elena: Hey, Fleur? Ah! Are those two together?


Fleur: He's my father but... I hate him. You hate your father too, don't you?

Ao: Uh.

Fleur: [Gazelle ???] back at HQ. I guess so, something you and I share.

Ao: I don't get it. I mean, if you hate him so much why work for his company?

Fleur: Five years ago, my Maman and I were involved in a really horrible car accident. There were only enough viable organs left between us to save one of us, me or my beautiful Maman. When the doctors told my father he picked me. And let her die on the table. I loved her more than I can put into words. If I were died, the wonderful woman would still be alive and well today.

Ao: But...

Fleur: I hate him. I hate him for killing her and leaving me with all the guilt. That's why I will fight for the company. Because it forces my father to send me in the harm's way.

Ao: Chief...

Announcer: Bring you this footage at the destruction within Faisal Arabia. We're looking at video shot in the old capital city of Abuha which bore the brunt of the G-Monster's initial attack. Thanks to large...

Ivica: You ready to do some flying?

Fleur: Huh?

Announcer: Britain, France and China...

Ivica: That video struck a nerve. Now that it's out there. Folks are saying this country needs all the help it can get.

Announcer: Additionally Faisal Arabia...

Ivica: Not wanted to look like jerks the Allied Forces is had to get on board.

Announcer: that Faisal Arabia...have requested...

Ao: And that means...

Ivica: Means your order to return the base has been nixed. We're gonna take that Secret out.

Ao: I'm not letting those bastards get their way, not this time. America and your Dad just get have to deal with it.

Fleur: Sucks to be you today, Dad.

Ao: Okay, Fleur. We've got even more reason than usual to succeed.

Elena: Huh?

Fleur: You can say that again, Ao.

Elena: Look up, fired up you are. Time to transforming combine huh?

Rebecka: We'll be entering the ZOA in 180 seconds.

Fleur: Locking on to target now. Let's see what we're off against.

Georg: You're ??? to wise to know that the lightning [infiltrating] from this Secret is [??? ] by the charged particles Resemble ??? Since they're ??? the traper, IFOs are nullified then the Secrets can't assert as for usual. However, the lightning is also a natural phenomenon independent from the Secret's will never [gain board video craft of radar.] So, proceed with caution. Also lightning can fall outside the ZOA. Your IFOs are equipped the electromagnetic shields to guard against precisely the sort of ??? that said a direct lightning strike may ??? save your system in ??? error. Please back to this into your strategy.

Fleur: ??? for you to say

Elena: but how exactly do I do that?

Georg: Don't get it by one.

Elena: Have to not be us strikes again.

Fleur: ??? doesn't that we have to worry about. Get exact.

Ao: Ready to get this started?

Elena: ??? the lightning zone. Good hold. Time to put your guns on, Dante. Here goes. Fire!

Fleur: Again!

Georg: The number of charged particles is increasing by 250% every second. The discharge zone has been growing exponentially.

Rebecka: Damn, retreat now!

Fleur: Ah! No way!

Elena: Come on, reboot.

Rebecka: What's your status, Elena! Are you reading me?

Ivica: Alleluia and Nirvash, maintain your positions.

Ao: But Chief?

Ivica: With Elena out of the fight there's no safe when we engage that Secret.

Fleur: [Stopping tapping to it], Chief.

Georg: The Secret has released all of its charged particles with a sudden change of course to a minor altitude. 76 seconds from now it will lose all momentum in [front ] of its ??? Now trying enter the estimating crash site.

Rebecka: Wait. Into the Coral?

Ivica: Son of a... The Secret is going for a [Hail Mary]. Abort your attack! You have to get away from that thing!

Rebecka: What?

Ivica: Situation changed. We have no choice.

Fleur: Damn.

Ao: We always have a choice! Bastards win this if we run away now. I'm sorry but letting innocent people die is out of the question.

Ivica: Listen to me. You need to start using your head out there.

Ao: Chief! Fleur, wait! Talk to me!

Rebecka: Get back to the Triton, Fleur! That's order!

Georg: 60 seconds remaining its all fusion explosion.

Ao: It's heading for the Coral. Are you nuts?! Fleur as you know that Alleluia's fire power is not good at cut it.

Fleur: I'm not going to stop that with my guns. Ao. This is one fighter I can afford to lose. Even if it cost me everything.

Georg: The Secret is concluding its ascent at 7500 feet over Faisal Arabia. Its momentum has been extended. Now commencing free fall.

Ao: You shouldn't have to. Fleur, I hate my Dad, too a lot. But its cost of that hate isn't that I have to persevere no matter what happens. I totally throw it. So I can kick his ass someday. If you hate your father you're not allowed to die yet. I guess we're out of time. Are you ready to do this?

Fleur: Yeah.

Georg: The Nirvash and Alleliua have rushed onto the Secret. Time to its fusion explosion 25 seconds. Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one...

Rebecka: Georg. What's the status of the IFOs?

Georg: The Alleluia and Nirvash are both still operational. I'm taking of life signs from each craft. So I believe the pilots to be unharmed.

Ao: Hey, Fleur, you okay?

Fleur: Well... I'm alive.

Ao: Yeah. You and me both. Thank goodness.


Elena: Hey, where are you guys off to?

Ao: Porting in to our damn boss.

Fleur: We're ??? victory to his face.

Ao: I wonder what he is gonna say to us. I bet the Americans had chewed him out and he's been crying!

Fleur: Doubt it would be awesome! I don't even care if he fires me. This is worth it.

Pippo: Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow! It's no good to my face, you damn it.

Gazelle: Man. This prosthetic glue really does the trick.

Han: Hey, guys! Look who we've kept ???

Gazelle: Ao, down here to check it out! Look of war tort in crap!

Ao: Where have I seen those outfits?

Rebecka: I haven't forgotten. The two of you ran off without permission while we're adopting in Faisal Arabia. Believe you me, kids. You'll have a thorough debriefing about that.

Blanc: After that Faisal Arabia footage went live a rumor from who-knows-where started making the rounds. Apparently, we'd failed to mobilize the strike team even though we'd received formal request for aide. America had me on the phone right away. They seem to think we had started the rumor ourselves.

Ivica: Really?

Blanc: I told them I had no idea what they were talking about of course. Pardon my asking but why did you remain in country after you'd been ordered to return to base?

Ivica: The engine gave me some grief. Fixing it was real pain.

Blanc: Where are you going?

Ivica: Someone's got to scold the kids, don't you think?


Ao: He had Gazelle's crew fake that footage.

Fleur: And the whole world [bought] it. Bastard.

Ao: But thanks to him lying the mission was a go. We saved a lot of lives we wouldn't have been able to. Hey, Fleur. I know we won. But did we win?

Fleur: We, huh? Whom are you getting familiar?

Ao: Huh?


Ao: To be continued!


Rebecka: Next time on Eureka Seven AO. The young man known as Truth trudges up a relic of the past in order to stoke the fires of revolution. Something appears from water's murky dense. What will be offered to the young man and what will be make clear to the boy?
