With the loss of most of their forces, they decide to hide themselves in Side-1's Shangri-La colony and begin their recovery efforts. A boy named Judau Ashta, after collecting and doing his job as a junk dealer, find a pod containing Yazan, still alive. After talking with him regarding the Argama, they decide to work together to steal the Zeta Gundam, though Judau and his friends want to just sell the mobile suit. At the port, Fa places Kamille in an ambulance and is about to leave when Judau and Yazan take her hostage. Shinta and Qum hide under the ambulance, and Judau searches the back and finds the vegetative Kamille. Kamille looks at him and holds out his hand, so Judau touches him and shares a strange Newtype experience with the comatose pilot. As they head for the Argama's dock, Yazan tells Judau they should have no trouble with the Argama's diminished crew. And despite being hardly armed with little more than vegetables and one Titan, Yazan proves to be right, as Judau is successfully able to steal the Zeta Gundam, but has trouble starting it up. But after Yazan kills Saegusa during the assault and reveals his true colors as a Titan, he activates the Zeta Gundam. Armed in only a Petite, Yazan attacks anyway, trying to get the Gundam himself. Unfortunately, Judau's control of the machine is poor, and they are forced into the colony. Abandoning the Petite as it is useless, Yazan boards a Middle mobile suit. Judau eventually pulls out a beam saber, but drops it, allowing Yazan to pick it up and gain the advantage, at least until Judau destroys the suit with forearm grenades and defeats Yazan. Afterwards, Bright is able to subdue the Zeta Gundam with a Petite and some wires, but Beecha and the rest of Judau's friends activate bombs. During this distraction, both Judau and Yazan manage to escape. In space, the Neo Zeon ship Endra sends a briefcase over to Shangri-La.

Kunihisa SugishimaAkinori EndōAugust 2, 1986 (1986-08-02)
The episode starts with another voice over - Judau tells us that the Argama is now in orbit of the Earth, and could be attacked at any time. We also see something being delivered to the ship, Quattro Bajina's Ms - the Hyaku shiki (Type 100). Bright and Mika are talking, and Mika tells us that AEUG's high command have ordered that the Argama destroys the Sandra before it reaches Earth with its main cannon. Beecha and Mondo suggest a plan to Judau, which is to attach bombs all around the ZZ, so the enemy won't attack in fear of an explosion that may catch them as well, and he can get Leina back. However, when he goes to install the bombs, they laugh and tell each other they can't stand him being the hero all the time. On board the Sandra, Haman tells them to stop broadcasting Minovsky particles, that they should let the Argama come to its death. Various people are seen and Haman gives a speech to her men, then a dark-skinned man gets into an MS called the Dreissen, and goes to attack the Argama. The ZZ launches, and gets to the Sandra. Haman lets him aboard, and wants to personally take him to Leina. On the way she says that they're the same type of person, both Newtypes, but Judau isn't interested, and Haman tells him that Leina isn't there. She tries to convince Judau that they're not enemies, and partially succeeds while moving in to kiss him, until some guards come and interrupt. Meanwhile, outside the yellow Endra reveals itself and goes on a suicide run, but the Argama dodges. The captain of the ship, who's also the pilot of the Dreissen, tells them to reunite with the Sandra and its fleet, while he leads in the Dreissen. Judau finds his way back to the ZZ, and blasts his way out of the ship, but is ambushed by the Dreissen. With help from the gundam Mk2 and the Zeta gundam, he is able to defeat it, but the pilot ejects before the Mobile Suit explodes.

Roux launches in the ZZ, Beecha in the Hyaku Shiki, and Elle in the Mk2. Many Zssa Mobile Suit attack, but Loux tells Beecha and Elle to assist Judau, who's fighting the Qubeley, and let her take care of the Zssa. Zeta is having real trouble fighting the Qubeley, and so Judau tries to reason with Ple - she almost accepts, but then pulls a gun and shoots Judau. Zeta escapes, but Glemy accidentally hits Qubeley with his shots, causing her to tumble towards the earth. It starts to go into re-entry, but Judau rescues it in the Zeta, going underneath it. He tells her to destroy Qubeley's shoulders, to increase stability. Everyone descends into the atmosphere using Ballutes, and the episode ends when Judau sees Earth in all its vastness.

The weather takes a turn for the worse, as the Argama lands near the coast of Africa. Soon, it is a raging storm. A lone sailing boat says that it will take the Argama to a safe place, for the price of $5000. For some reason, Judau escapes onto the boat during the money transfer, and becomes friends with the sailor, Teran. Unfortunately, he's unscrupulous about getting money to support him and his sister, and so leads the attack of an underwater squadron against the Argama. Judau tries to stop him, but fails. While this was going on, Ple found her way onto the Core Fighter, and arrives just in time to rescue Judau. He successfully defeats all the Marine Suits, and convinces Teran that he should stop doing things like this. The boy agrees, and plows his Kapool into the Zeon's underwater base, jumping out at the last minute.

In a small village, the Desert Rommel platoon has been waiting, biding their time for 8 long years since the One Year War. A dozen or so fighters, all equipped with very customized desert Zakus, led by their Captain, who pilots a Customized Dowadge. They set up an ambush, and attack the Zeta Gundam, but then the ZZ, Hyaku Shiki and Mark II find Judau and give him a hand, systematically destroying the troop. The captain can't believe that his 8 years spent training was destroyed by a boy, and goes in for a final attack. The captain and his mobile suit is destroyed, and Judau can't understand why he did it, knowing he would die.

While the Judau goes to find water in the Core Fighter, Ple causes more trouble by using up all the water to cool herself off. This doesn't bode well, and she starts getting bullied by Roux and Elle, who are really wound up because of her actions. Judau finds a woman in the desert who give him a bit of water, and says she'll lead him to the Oasis. However, they end up back where the MS are, and just in time, as Loux and Elle were going to bury Ple. She tells them to follow their shadows to get to the village where the water is. They do, but the villagers push them away. Judau and Ple go back to pick up the Core Fighter, and see the woman go into a cave. It turns out, that she has a mobile suit, originally belonging to her dead husband. It is a Gelgoog S-type (which means her husband was an ace pilot), and although it is 8 years out of date, it gives the Hyaku Shiki, Mk-2 and Zeta a good fight until Judau shows up and combines to make the ZZ Gundam. Again, the pilot makes a final suicidal attack, but this time, Judau rescues her in time. The episode ends with her sitting in the corner of a burnt out building, with the village elder telling someone that her heart died with the mobile suit, and she'll never be the same again.

It seems that the remains of the corrupt Earth Federation, Titans and Neo Zeon are all gathered to welcome Mineva Zabi. Elle sees this and recognizes Leina in the sea of faces, and reports to Judau. In the middle of the following night, he steals away in the Core Fighter, trying to rescue her by himself. Roux and Elle realize this, and follow him in the Zeta and Hyaku Shiki. They make a distraction outside the palace where the party is being held, and he manages to sneak in and find Leina. Unfortunately, Haman Kahn also is there, and senses his presence. She finds them, and shoots, hitting Leina in the stomach. Judau goes insane, and everyone around can feel his rage of his Newtype powers. Haman is terrified by his sheer power, and runs away, giving them a chance to escape in the Core fighter. She is later found crying because of this. As they evacuate, a giant airship appears, spewing out dozens of GM-III suits, which start destroying the enemy ms in the area. Unfortunately, with Leina condition worsening, the Core Fighter is shot down in the middle of the ocean, far out from the city.

This episode continues where the last one left off. Inside the city, the battle is still raging, but the Core Fighter has been washed up onto the shore of an island. Ple and Mondo find it, and while Mondo goes to get the medicine, Ple leads away Leina. She ends up trying to kill Leina, saying that she already has a brother and a family, but she herself had nobody. Judau appears on the scene, and stops them fighting, saying that they're all siblings together. Ple seems to accept this, and offers to take care of Leina while Judau goes off to help his friends, who are valiantly defending them from Glemy forces.

Judau gets the ZZ transformed, and also helps to defend the island against the reinforcements, Team August, several Dreissen suits, who don't seem to mind who they hit, friend or foe alike. Ple, realizes that Leina has a fever, and so goes to wet a handkerchief to cool her down. During the fight, Glemy's escort, a woman in a Dowadge gets shot down, with the suit landing straight onto where Leina laid half asleep. It bursts into flames. Team August is overwhelmed by the AEUG, and they retreat, as does Haman's flagship, which is under pressure by the returning Argama. Judau rushes to the burnt out hut where Leina was, but there is nothing remaining apart from a burnt out shoe. Both he and Ple weep, but Roux tells him that they should go, because reinforcements from the enemy will be there any minute, throwing the shoe into the inferno, and telling him not to let her death be in vain. Ple tries to console him, "In the future, I could be your Leina", but he pushes her aside, as she starts crying harder.

Judau is still upset about the death of his sister, and stays inside his shuttle. Roux gets him out violently, despite Ple trying to stop her. In the end, Ple realizes she can't replace Leina, but will try to be like a sister to him. He seems consoled, for the moment. In the MS deck, Beecha and Mondo argue with Roux, but then she runs off in the Core Fighter. On board the Axis command ship, Haman tells Glemy that she can handle the titans, and he should take care of the Kalaba Air Force before they can rendezvous with the AEUG. It seems that Team August, now led by Glemy, is not happy being under his command. The Argama receives a transmission about the impending attack on its base, and goes to help. Elle launches in the type-100, Beecha in the Gundam MkII, Yelai in the Core Lander, and Judau launches in the Core Base. Roux is also caught up in the fight which follows. Beecha uses Loux's Core Fighter as a shield, and is distracted by her, and gives the chance for Beecha to destroy the Bawwoo. Glemy escapes, only barely, but Roux blasts off and leaves him in the middle of the desert. Judau and the rest manage to fight off the other teams, but can't pursue, as they need to put out all the fires in the city nearby. Judau blames himself for Roux leaving, but Bright tells him not to take it so hard on himself. The episode ends as Glemy walks through the desert, and watches the Core Fighter fly off into the distance.

He tells her he's an actor, and saw potential in her, and leads her to an underground city, similar to those on earth in the 1990s. On the Argama, Ple is causing trouble as usual, but hints to Judau that Roux is in the city. They decide to refuel there before the final push northward. On the road, Glemy is found by a group of MS, known as the Blue Team, of the North Africa Independence Forces, who want to get rid of the Franica (people who live in the underground city). They tell Glemy that if he can get to the control room in the city, they'll help him. He goes there, but runs into Roux. He beats up the man she's with, and runs off with her into the city. He talks to her for a while, but is distracted by the fight between the Blue Team and the AEUG outside. Roux walks off in disgust, and exits the city in a truck packed with containers of fuel. The fight eventually goes to the AEUG, and the Blue Team's leader's Gelgoog is shot down. Ple says she can feel Roux in the city (where she's just left), and tells Judau. They all go to the city to find her. Later on in the evening, Glemy and the rest of the team find the Gelgoog and the team leader, and he tells Glemy he is the true leader of Zeon, and he should fight for the honor of the Blue Team.

Despite a good effort the resistance and the Blue Team are defeated, though Glemy survives thanks to one of his subordinates and retreats, questioning his own loyalty to Haman after seeing what Neo Zeon did to the city.

As the Argama prepares to land in Dublin, Judau scolds Bright for going there, as he placed his job over seeing his family again, but Bright's response reminds Judau of Leina's death, causing a nearby Ple to flee the Argama, misinterpreting his thoughts as him wishing she was gone over Leina. Judau chases after her to explain, but the ship soon comes under attack from a Zeon squadron, but after Judau calms Ple down, she deals with them and the Argama lands in a forest to conceal themselves. While Bright goes to meet the Federation leaders, the Gundam team goes into town, except for Judau who decides to follow Bright. At the Federation mansion, Bright voices his disapproval of the Federation making a treaty with Haman, as it involved them giving her Side 3, the heart of Zeon. Bright argues that doing so will only encourage Haman to continue the war, but the Federation leaders say this will ensure peace as they have given back the Zeon capital, and also sneeringly remark that they will soon have the Argama decommissioned. Judau, who overheard everything, interrupts them and punches the head official for his disrespect of the Argama crew and their sacrifices as well as his foolishness in underestimating what a grave threat Haman is. As a result both Judau and Bright are imprisoned, just as the Zeon group that attacked the Argama earlier attack again, trying to smoke out the ship, killing some of the Federation officials in the process. As the Gundam team rushes back to defend the Argama a medical team is dispatched to aide the wounded, and among them is Fa Yuiry, who breaks Judau and Bright out of their confinement, surprising both with her sudden appearance.

The Gundam team assembles and deals with the Zeon forces, but soon the mayor of the city and soldiers appear to apprehend the Argama for disrupting the peace. Fa soon returns, begging the Argama for help as Kamille has gone missing, so the Gundam team drives off the officials and split up with Fa to go find Kamille.

Kamille, in the infirmary of the Argama, can sense the impending danger of the drop and starts to have a minor convulsion.

Hayato arrives on the Argama, and he and Bright visit Katz's old room while remembering his death at the Battle of Gryps. After Judau asks Hayato to let Fa and Kamille off the ship in Glasgow, Hayato refuses, and declares that the Earth Federation Forces are not intervening in the colony drop as a means of population control.

The remainder of the Gundam team scout the area, and Glemy decides it is time to awaken Ple Two, and her awakening startles both Ple and Kamille. Judau's anger combined with his new-type powers forces Rakan to retreat, while Ple warns Bright of an approaching threat, which is Ple Two in the Psyco Gundam Mk II. The Argama fails to shoot her down so Ple confronts her in a still damaged Qubeley Mk II, with the two combatants reacting to each other's familiar Newtype presence. Ple Two dominates Ple until Judau arrives and sends Ple back to the Argama while he deals with the Psyco Gundam. The Gundam team find the Auduhmula with the rescued civilians safe, but find the crew dead, so they contact the Argama to rendezvous. Judau struggles against Ple Two, with the situation turning grimmer as the Double Zeta begins to run out of power, but is saved by a returning Ple who realizes that their opponent is a clone of herself, and reveals this to Ple Two, greatly surprising her. Wanting to save Judau, Ple summons all of her Newtype powers and kamikazes the Qubeley into the Pysco Gundam, killing her and badly damaging the Gundam, but Ple Two survives. Ple Two then prepares to finish Judau, but his anger and anguish at Ple's death allows him to activate the ZZ's bio sensor and destroy the Psyco Gundam, but Ple Two ejects.

It is revealed that since the colony drop was successful, Haman has returned to space, so the Argama crew does the same, leaving behind the Argama with Karaba. As they leave they are watched by some of their friends: a reunited Kamille and Fa, and, surprisingly, Bright’s old subordinate Sayla Mass accompanied by a very much alive Leina Ashta. In Space the crew reunites with the La Vie en Rose and sees their new ship the Nahel Argama. Judau and co explore their new ship, while Bright meets with his superior; both Bright and the crew, who were eavesdropping, are shocked to hear that the Gundam team is to be decommissioned and Bright is to command the Nahel Argama with a new, more “professional” crew. Judau, Bright, and the crew adamantly refuse this as they have been through everything together and have proven themselves capable, but their accomplishments are denounced, with Judau and his friends being labeled as mere children. At that moment the Argama’s old enemy, Mashymre Cello, along with his new ship and subordinate Illia Pazom attack. Illia leads the attack to destroy the new Argama in her ReGelg, so the Argama crew launches the Nahel Argama to draw fire away from the Rose. A direct hit to the ship causes Shinta, Qum, and some new pilots to be ejected from the ship, so Bright launches in a small vessel to save them while Judau launches in the ZZ to deal with Illia. Illia’s fast mobile suit allows her to outmaneuver Judau, however they begin to react to each other’s Newtype powers distracting her long enough for Judau to successfully execute a sneak attack. Illia survives and captures Judau’s but his unorthodox strategy mixed with the continuous reaction of their Newtype powers, allows him to stall her long enough for Elle in the Mk II to damage her suit, forcing a retreat with the rest of her units. Back on board the Nahel Argama, the crew realizes that Bright has been through enough, and let him (along with Shinta, Qum, and Haro) stay with the La Vie en Rose, and they head out to face Haman, with Bright, believing in their skill and strength, wishes them luck and farewell.
