Air date: May 14, 1993

The Gattarl Team is ordered to search for and destroy the League Militaire convoy. Uso leaves the convoy to return to Kassarelia in order to search for Shakti. Odelo, Warren, and Suzy, the three immigrants that Uso found in his house, decide to follow him to Kassarelia. Lieutenant Chronicle Asher and his two hostages are recovered by the Recarl Mobile Armor. On board, Fuala Griffon, the commander of the Lagrane Base begins to interrogate the hostages. The Gattarl Team encounters both Shakti and Uso’s group in search for the convoy but lets them go thinking that they are innocent children. The Gattarl Team finds and engages the convoy. Ms. Marbet pilots the Core Fighter and quickly destroys three of the Gattarl Team’s machines. Uso’s group rejoins the convoy and Uso takes control of the Core Fighter after Ms. Marbet crash lands and destroys 2 more of the Gattarl Team’s machines. The convoy continues to take damage as Uso docks the Core Fighter with the Boots. Shakti returns to witness the ongoing battle as 12 mobile suits lead by Lieutenant Arbeo Pippiniden, descend from space. Uso then docks with the Top Fighter and quickly overwhelms the rest of the Gattarl Team before the Kisarolia team, which just descended from space shows up. Uso fends off the Kisarolia team and they retreat. In the meantime, the torture of Hakashaku by Fuala Griffon begins. Also Lieutenant Arbeo Pippiniden visits Lieutenant Chronicle Asher and they discuss the ongoing and upcoming military situation. After the fight Uso is ridiculed for being too soft in battle, however they are interrupted by the televised execution of Hakashaku.
