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.
Rushing is pointless, and this won't
work if the Unicorn isn't operational.
.لا جدوى من الاستعجال، ولن يُفلح هذا إن لم تكن اليونيكورن جاهزة للعمل
Da der Unicorn gerade nicht einsatzfähig ist,
wäre dieses Unterfangen zwecklos.
La prisa es inútil, y esto no dará resultado
si el Unicorn no puede usarse.
Las prisas no son buenos, y esto será
 inútil si el Unicorn no puede usarse.
Inutile de se hâter.
Non serve tutta questa fretta.
Se lo Unicorn non può muoversi, non ha senso agire.
Não há por que ter pressa, e de nada 
adiantará se o Unicorn não funcionar.
