Captain Milia,
can we break radio silence now?
[Saint Ford] The scheduled mission period
has already expired.
Very well, open fold communications.
[both] Yes, ma'am.
Stargazer, Stargazer, come in please.
Stargazer, Stargazer, please respond.
Come in, Stargazer. Stargazer!
Captain Milia, Stargazer's not responding!
Keep hailing them
until you get a response.
[both] Yes, ma'am! Stargazer.
Did they all perish?
There's no way Max and the others
are dead.
[song continues]
[Basara] WHAT'S MY PAIN? ♪
It's no lie ♪
Happiness is right there ♪
AMBITION ON VARAUTA IV
[song ends]
My name is Gepelnitchi.
Samples, cease all resistance.
Your lives will be spared.
[growls]
Damn it!
Gamlin
[hammer cocks]
Aren't you guys from Macross 5?
Lower your guns!
Capt. Docker, they're being
mind-controlled. It's no use.
[grumbles]
Staff Officer Günter!
Hmm?
Günter?
Staff Officer Ivarno Günter,
from U.N. Spacy HQ Joint Staff Office.
Staff Officer Günter,
I'm Lt. Illyna Hayakawa of
Blue Rhinoceros Squadron, ground forces.
[grunts]
[sighs]
You bastard!
[Max] Capt. Docker.
[groans]
You are in command?
I am Maximilian Jenius, commander
of the U.N. Spacy Macross 7 fleet.
I advised you to assist with my dream.
[Mylene] What are you talking about?
-Why do we have to help you?
-Mylene.
You killed Gamlin!
Give him back! Give me back Gamlin!
Death is as a bubble bursting.
I never wished for it.
That's a lie! You killed so many!
That was avoidable. If only you had
shared our dream of the Spiritia Farm.
What? You're not making sense!
[laughs]
Your Spiritia rises.
Survival is a fitting path
for this Spiritia self-regenerating race.
Give him back! I said give me back Gamlin!
Mylene
Spiritia is like clear water
soaked up by sand.
It eventually becomes dry and tasteless.
But the Spiritia Farm is eternal.
With the rain
of the Anima Spiritia's sound waves,
the depleted Spiritia is restored
like an eternal spring.
You shall repeat this for all eternity!
Anima Spiritia's sound waves?
My song ain't some weird shit like that!
[vocalizes]
[grunts]
[gasps]
[chuckles]
Anima Spiritia, you are as tantalizing
as you are dangerous.
The aura of abundance that arouses us so.
The Macross 7 fleet?
If you do not wish to see this
sample fleet turned into stardust,
do as I command.
You won't destroy our fleet!
Ooh.
If you do that, this Spiritia Farm
plan of yours will be ruined.
[laughs]
My dream is endless.
I will give you time to think it over.
[no audible dialogue]
[Illyna] There's no doubt about it.
That was Staff Officer Günter,
who was part of the survey team
that came here with us
to investigate the ruins.
When we were investigating the catacombs,
he was the one who found that chamber.
And then [whimpers]
And then, I can't remember what happened!
So
A Protodeviln took over
Staff Officer Günter's body?
[grunts]
I'm not sure.
But I think that's a safe assumption.
It's just like demonic possession.
Unbelievable.
Mylene, are you okay?
[Mylene] We
Gamlin
We
Gamlin died so we could sing
Singing
Singing is
[whimpers]
So, we're done for.
Capt. Docker, this is only the beginning!
-But
-[Max] Hmm?
Isn't our situation hopeless?
-Lt. Morry.
-Yes, sir!
Calm down and think.
It's still too soon to despair.
Yes, sir!
Ray.
There are a lot of
brainwashed soldiers here.
If Basara can sing without interruption
we might be able to break their
mind control and turn them to our side.
[no audible dialogue]
Ivarno Günter [chuckles]
Staff Officer Günter?
Mylene.
Mylene, what do you think we should do?
Hmm?
I'd like your opinion.
You're a member of Stargazer, right?
Dad
You took part in this mission
of your own free will.
You were initially rejected,
but you did all you could to come along.
What was it that you came here for?
-[gasps]
-[Max] Hmm?
You came here to do something, right?
But, Gamlin!
Did you come here to cry?
[Mylene gasps]
Gamlin put his life on the line to fight.
I think you know why he fought on
all this time.
