While the Argama and its mobile suits undergo maintenance and repair at the La Vie en Rose, Bright tasks Elle, Beecha, Mondo, and Iino with keeping Judau on board, as he is sure to attempt a foolhardy rescue of Leina. Sure enough Roux is trying to keep Judau away from the hangar bay, but with help from Elle, who sympathizes with him, he gets past Roux and makes it to the hangar, though is caught before he can sortie in the ZZ. On board the Endra, Leina is looked after by Glemy, who attempts to teach her sophisticated manners, Chara plans another attack and launches, and Leina tries to escape but is caught by Glemy, though he kindly tells her he will release her to Roux if she appears. Judau is confined to a room, but is once again freed by Elle and the two escapes with ZZ and the Gundam Mk II, unknowingly taking Beecha and Mondo with them. Soon enough the two encounter Gottn and Chara, the latter revealing her plan: an encasing web of bombs. As Judau and Elle battle them he lets it slip that Leina is his sister, which gives Gottn the idea to use her as a hostage. Glemy refuses to do so, but accepts when he mistakenly believes Roux to be piloting the Mk II, and so brings Leina to the bridge. Gottn threatens Leina’s life unless Judau surrenders, distressing Judau, but before any action can be taken Beecha and Mondo detach the core base from the ZZ, accidentally disabling Mondo’s unit, and thus saving Leina, but wind up stuck on the Endra. With everything gone wrong, Chara orders a retreat before Leina can be rescued; Emary Ounce, captain of the La Vie en Rose, is impressed with the piloting skills of both Judau and Elle and reaffirms that both of them are strong Newtypes. Elle is concerned for Judua, but he responds that he will definitely save Leina. (Source: Wikipedia)
