After saving Banagher and the Unicorn Gundam, which were falling toward Earth, the Garencieres crash-lands in the Western Sahara. Meanwhile, Zeon remnants who have been hiding on Earth launch a diversionary attack on the Earth Federation capital at Dakar. Ronan, a Federation government official, orders Bright Noa to hunt down the Garencieres. Having descended to Earth with Riddhe, Mineva flees the Marcenas household out of fear that she will be used for political purposes. But the words of an old Earth-born man, who speaks of the good intentions of those who carried out the settlement of space, help her realize what she should do, and she turns herself in to her pursuers. At the same time, Alberto's aunt Martha is reconditioning the Cyber-Newtype Marida so that she can be controlled. And Zinnerman decides to cross the desert to make contact with the Zeon remnants, taking Banagher with him.
Makes me wonder if my back wouldn't
bother me anymore if I went into space.
ما يدفعني للتّفكير ما إن كنتُ لن أشعر
.بالانتكاسات في ظهري إن ذهبتُ إلى الفضاء
Ob sich der Schmerz in meiner Hüfte
lindern würde, wenn ich im Weltraum wäre?
Me pregunto si tendría problemas
en mi espalda si me fuera al espacio.
Me pregunto si tendría problemas
de espalda si me fuera al espacio.
On se dit que l’espace ferait du bien
à nos vieux os.
E mi chiedo se andando nello spazio, 
se ne andrebbero anche i dolori alla schiena.
Queria saber se minhas costas parariam
 de doer se eu fosse pro espaço.
