Although the Archangel has escaped the Minerva's attack, the Freedom has been destroyed, and the ship itself badly damaged. After retrieving Kira, the Archangel continues on to Orb, while Shinn returns to the Minerva and receives a hero's welcome.
We'll make them think
that the ship has sunk! Hurry!
Wir lassen sie denken, unser Schiff
wurde versenkt! Schnell!
¡Les haremos creer
que nos hundimos! ¡Deprisa!
¡Les haremos creer
que nos hundimos! ¡Deprisa!
Ils croiront qu’on a coulé.
Vão pensar que a nave afundou. 
Depressa!
