Murrue fends off an attacking Athrun, and throws Kira into the prototype mobile suit's cockpit before jumping in herself. She activates the machine, which Kira immediately nicknames "Gundam" based on the [[Fun With Acronyms|acronym of its operating system]]. Athrun [[Gundamjack|steals the remaining prototype]], and meets up with Miguel, a ZAFT pilot in a [[Mecha Mook|GINN]]. Athrun retreats back to the ''Vesalius'' while Miguel remains behind to capture the final prototype. His attacks fail, due to the Gundam's special "phase shift" armor, which makes it virtually [[Immune to Bullets|invulnerable to physical damage]]. However, the Gundam can barely move due to its incomplete OS. To prevent Miguel from destroying them, Kira seizes the controls from Murrue, [[Rapid Fire Typing|modifying the Gundam's OS]] on the fly as he fights. He manages to disable Miguel's GINN; Miguel bails out, but not before activating the GINN's [[Self Destruct Mechanism]] and [[Taking You With Me|catching the Gundam in the blast]].

In Heliopolis' port, Ensign Natarle Badgiruel regains consciousness after the explosions in the previous episode, and begins regrouping with other survivors. Outside, the Earth Alliance forces are being routed. Their warship loses control due to battle damage and crashes into Heliopolis' exterior, leaving Mu La Flaga the only remaining Earth Alliance unit outside the colony. He manages to damage a ZAFT GINN, forcing it to retreat. Rau notes his respect when informed of this, and signals a retreat of ZAFT's MS while he launches in his own [[Ace Custom|personal mobile suit]].
