Mobile Suit Gundam (1979–1980): Season 1, Episode 36 - Big Zam's Last Stand - full transcript

Mobile Suit Gundam
Rage on! Rage on! Rage on! Gundam!

You must run forth!

If you are still burning
with furious rage...

...You must fight the towering foe!
Fight! Fight! Fight!

Bring to bear the rage of justice, Gundam!

Mobile Suit Gundam! Gundam!

Rise once more! Rise once more!
Rise once more! Gundam!

You must seize the power!

Fly toward the galaxy, Gundam!

Mobile Suit Gundam! Gundam!

The battle of Solomon came to an end.

The Space Attack Force, commanded
by Vice Admiral Dozle...

...was effectively obliterated.

It was a defeat that the Principality of Zeon
was unable to predict or prepare for.

Sovereign Degwin Zabi...

...is said to have told Gihren that this
should have been expected of Dozle.

While containing his anger
against the Sovereign...

...Gihren declared to Zeon's top officials...

...that he would use the stronghold of
A Baoa Qu as the final line of defence...

...and defeat the Federation.

The Duel in Texas

No problems to report
within the second battle line.

No enemy vessels... no mines.

It's a good thing.

We're switching in 30 minutes, okay?

Amuro is here now.

Please check his blood pressure for me.

Right.

I'm astounded at the stamina of
Oscar, Marker, and especially Amuro.

It must be hard with everything
they're asking you to do, Fraw Bow.

It's nothing compared to what you have.

How long has it been?

Since when?

Since the two of us stopped talking.

Well, we've been so preoccupied.

Yes.

The computer analysis says you're healthy.

Amuro... You've become so strong, it's scary.

What?

You're far beyond my reach now.

But that's fine.

I don't want to see you being weak, and...

We all have to grow up one way or another.

S-Sorry... Fraw Bow... I didn't mean to...

Don't worry, it's okay...

But... did something happen at Side 6?
You seem a bit different, Amuro.

Do you really think so?

It's not as if...

I'll tell you someday,
when I figure out what to say.

A lot happened over there.

Oh...

How is he?

Perfectly healthy.

How is Hayato coming along?

He's right on track,
thanks to his exercise regimen.

This will be a problem...
It's around the debris region of Texas.

Should we wake everyone up?

Oh! Sorry to wake you.

That's okay.

A Chivvay's at the brink
of the third combat line, but...

...there seem to be others in the Texas zone.

On a mopping-up operation of enemy
vessels that escaped from Solomon...

...the White Base enters the Texas zone.

It is an area filled with debris.

This colony was originally built
for leisure and raising livestock,

and was named Texas.

It was left behind due by
lack of military significance.

It's now surrounded by drifting
rocks and colony debris.

Haven't the Elmeth and bits
been delivered to Texas yet?

The fine-tuning is taking some time.

Never mind. At least my own
Gelgoog has been delivered.

Does anyone live in Texas any more?

Well...

It seems there are some former workers and
staff at the colony's management office.

So you're saying it's practically uninhabited.

Yes.

What shall we do about the Trojan Horse, sir?

M'Quve is nearby?

Yes.

We have no weapons on hand,
so let him deal with the enemy.

We'll be docking the Zanzibar at Texas.

The Chivvay is moving.
They've noticed us.

All right. Muster the whole crew!

Enemy approaching!
Enemy approaching!

All hands to level 3 battle stations!

It was such a nice bath, especially
after barely escaping with my life!

The enemy probably escaped from Solomon.

We'll launch the Guncannon
as soon as we reach the second battle area!

All hands, we may have destroyed
Solomon, but stay on guard!

Mirai. Are you okay?

I'm sorry for making you worry.

Working until I'm tired shall help me.

Don't push yourself too hard.

I'm here for you, if you ever want to talk.

Thank you...
It's good of you to say that.

It's just as I'd planned.
We've caught up with the Trojan Horse.

Uragang! How are the preparations
going for my Gyan?

Sir! It's ready.

Good... Proceed now to Area Two,
then launch the Rick Doms!

I'll launch with my Gyan.

But there's no need for you to fight
as a common soldier, Captain M'Quve.

Oh, yes there is.

Sir?

The mobile suit Gyan was developed
especially for me...

I must maintain my standing as a man
to Rear Admiral Kycilia...

Besides, I've been informed that Char still
hasn't received the mobile suit he requested.

I'll demolish the Trojan Horse
and the Gundam while he watches.

Miss Sayla!

You should be able to locate the Chivvay
in the second battle area. Be careful!

Roger that!

Trojan Horse detected in Point 3-AA!

All hands to battle stations!

Rick Doms, forestall
the enemy fighter-bombers!

When you see the Gundam,
lure it into Texas.

That'll make it easier for the Gyan.

Yes, sir! We're keeping that in mind.

Good! Then move out!

Here they come... Miss Sayla, the
Chivvay! It'll come into view soon!

Roger!

Marker, what are the enemy's movements?

It's hard to see through the debris.

Give me maximum magnification!

Is the enemy after the G-Armour...?

Uragang! I'm counting on you
to stall the Trojan Horse!

It's just one ship,
but don't relax your guard!

Roger, Captain. All clear for take-off, sir.

Do everything according to the plan.

I'll set a trap near Texas.

Remember, it's a two-rank promotion
if we defeat the Gundam.

They're coming, Amuro!

See that, Amuro?
Do you think it's four or five mobile suits?

Thanks to the Minovsky particles
and all the rocks, it's hard to tell!

I see them!

Amuro, can you shoot them?

I'll give it a try.

Hurry and bolt out!

Roger!

Here it comes.

Where is he?

A Dom!

The Gundam and G-Fighter
are drifting toward Texas!

Kai! Standby to take off!
All hands to level 1 battle stations!

Petty Officer Sunmalo.
Has another battle begun?

Hayato. Just concentrate on getting
better. Remember, that's part of your duty.

I understand that, but my injuries
aren't as bad as we originally thought!

You'll be up and about in a couple
of days, so just rest up until then.

It's not easy to be a dashing hero, is it.

I'd rather have you look like a healthy patient.

Don't make it difficult for me.

This colony's a sad sight
with its mirror adjustment problems...

Everything is dried up.

How's it going, Flanagan?

She's doing well. Lalah hit the test
targets at a 70 percent accuracy rate.

I suppose we should return to the Zanzibar.

Here on the Texas colony,
built for cattle raising and leisure...

...the mirrors were damaged in the
war, and stopped working.

The colony has remained in twilight
for over 8 months.

The land has thus turned to desert,
and the people have moved away.

Something's coming.
What is it, I wonder?

Coming here? What is?

I wonder what it is...

What am I sensing...?

Something's coming.

Flanagan! What is it?

It doesn't appear to be any of the test targets.

I've never seen her brain waves
resonate like this before.

Is there another like me around here?

Lalah. What did you just say?

You've touched my heart, Captain.

I've what?

Lalah. Don't fool around.

Yes, sir.

But what was that?

That tingling sensation just now.

Those pilots are experienced!
But now I can predict the pattern!

Gundam and G-Fighter
are in the Texas area!

What is the starboard fleet doing?

No changes. They're progressing slowly.

This is the last one.

What...?!

This was all a scheme
to lure me toward this mobile suit...!

Now then...

Come to me... Gundam.

You rogue...

How devious...!

Yes, I did it!

That's your reward for expecting
both sides to fight fair and square, Gundam!

He's escaping into Texas?

What are you staring at?

At you, Captain. Does that bother you?

I don't mind.

Do you think I'm truly
ready to pilot the EImeth?

Are you afraid?

Yes.

You'll just have to get used to it.

I'll always be by your side.

That way you'll be a better pilot
than me in no time, Lalah.

Me?

Better than the Red Comet?

Of course.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have left
an orphan like you at the Flanagan Institute.

I'm sorry I left you lonely
and on your own in Side 6.

Captain! Captain M'Quve has entered
Texas in his mobile suit.

M'Quve? How odd.

I never knew he had this side to him.

I hear he's had a mobile suit
developed for his own personal use,

and he's declared that he'll bring down
the Trojan Horse. He must be confident.

He's simply trying to spite me.

I can't think of any other reason
for him to be so foolhardy.

Nonetheless...
we can't stand by silently, either.

The Gelgoog's preparations are finished.

It's a prototype, so it's hardly perfect, but...

Then this shall double as a field
test while I keep an eye on M'Quve.

One more!

Finally...

Enemy vessels!

Fraw Bow! Send out the Guncannon!

Yes, sir!

How many vessels, Marker?

One Chivvay, two Musais!

What could that be?

I know. I've memorised the data
on the Gelgoog.

Won't you at least wear a normal suit?

It's my policy to come back
with my mobile suit in one piece.

I rely on my survival instinct.

That's why I never wear pilot suits
or normal suits.

Take me up!

Yes, sir.

That's not it.

These small-scale bombs won't hurt me...!

Captain...!

Lalah, you're witnessing two mobile
suits in battle. Observe from a safe distance.

Yes.

Now then. Let's see how
Captain M'Quve does in action.

3...2...1... Go ahead!

The Baromel...!

Use those rocks to shield the ship!

Is that it?

Does he have good instincts,
or is he one of those new-types?

That's an allied mobile suit...

He's good!

A red mobile suit...!

Is it Char?!

Char! Pull back!

Your present mission
is not to defeat the Gundam!

I can't stand idly by
and ignore an ally in obvious trouble.

I have my own way of fighting!
That's why I lured the Gundam here!

I'll leave it to you, Captain
M'Quve. Look out!

I've confirmed it with the data I've collected.

You've used up too much beam energy
in your skirmish with Char!

Why you...!

I was hoping that the Gundam
would get rid of him for me.

But M'Quve's putting up a good fight...

Lalah. I hope you're watching this.

Why won't the Captain go and help out?

Why...?

This is the same as I felt earlier!

Put your sword away!

Your dirty tricks are no match
against Gundam's power!

In order to put Char in his place,

I have to defeat the Gundam!

What the...?!

Stop now. It's over.

What?! What...?

Uragang! Deliver that antique vase
to Lady Kycilia!

It's very valuable!

Just as I expected.

Hastily-gathered information is of no use!

Captain!

Who is it...?

Someone's watching me...

This sensation...

It isn't Char...

This is...

A... mu... ro...?

La... lah...?

For Amuro, who is on the verge
of acquiring a new strength...

...Char poses virtually no threat.

As the fierce battle continues,
Sayla asks Char in earnest...

Will he leave Zeon behind
and finally return to her?

Mobile Suit Gundam. Next episode...

Char and Sayla.

Will you be able to survive??

Amuro, do not look back.

The star shining far off in space...

Amuro, it's your homeland
where you were born.

Do you remember the days
of your childhood??

The morning when you woke up, when it was warm?

Amuro, do not look back. Amuro...

A man must hide his tears, hide his tears.

Only look to tomorrow, to tomorrow... Forever...
