Playing hard to get eh?

Lockon still alive…that tough mofo.  Despite losing his dominant eye, he's still good to go because that's just the person he is.  Tieria, on the other hand, is acting oh so womanly because of who he is.

Back on Earth, operation Fallen Angels is put into effect, the goal being to eradicate the Gundams.  Watching over this with some disgust, Graham must wait even longer for his GN Flag to be complete. 

Once the Tau Drives on the HRL's GN-X's are recharged and good to go, they continue their course of eradication.  Now back in space, Tieria starts his self defeating conversation with Lockon, only to have Lockon blow all of it aside and still love him for who he is.

Next to Azadistan, the GN-X's have found the Thrones.  With only 30% of their power remaining, Trinity is in a bit of a bind.  As much as they'd like to wipe out the GN-X's, they get slapped around instead.  Knowing that fighting more won't get them anywhere, Johann fires several smoke screens and they escape.

Now aboard the Ptomley again, the Meisters finally return to their core vision, the belief that drives them all.  One Setsuna and Lasse take off, we're back on Earth again.

So Ali's found the Trinity siblings…and not only does he find them, he shoots Michael, takes out Johann after hijacking the Throne Zwei, and would've killed Nena if Setsuna didn't get there when he did.

On Veda, once Libbonz finishes hacking through all levels, we finally see Aoelia Schenberg…who put himself in cryostasis.  Unfortunately for him, Alejandro's grudge and greed wouldn't simply leave him in peace.  Alejandro does kill Aoelia, but only to reveal Mr. Schenberg's trump card for Celestial Being: the Trans-Am System.

Impressions:
More ass kick, especially with the revelation of Veda and the Trans-Am System.  And Ali being a beast…oh gawd he's a beast…
