The Order To Destroy 01
Trowa and Heero trek Europe to find the relatives of Marshal Noventa, that Heero accidentally killed in episode 7.
Relena goes to face the Romefeller Foundation with her guardian Noin, who urges her to not do anything despite the meeting being full of the people who once put Sank Kingdom in ruins. At the meeting, duke Dermail holds a speech about how the world Federation didn't do their duty as rulers of the world, and that the Romefeller foundation now will do a better job. Noin tells Relena about the foundation. In the past, the Romefeller foundation sponsored the world foundation, but has now reverted to OZ instead, as there is much to gain from war. She also thinks that the OZ badly wants the Gundams, and will attack the colonies to force them out of their hiding. Treize also holds a speech, and repeats Dermail's words - the OZ will rule better than the Federation, and that the support from Romefeller is needed. At this point, Relena has had enough, and before Noin discovers it, she marches up to the stage to hold her own speech. Before she gets very far into it, however, Noin stops her and they leave after a short confrontation with Treize.
After they left, Dermail tells Treize that Zechs is rebuilding the Gundam that self-destructed. Noin overhears this, and later tells Zechs that the Foundation is afraid of Gundam. Noin and Zechs talk about Relena, and Zechs wants to know how much she knows about him. Noin says Relena only knows Zechs as a loyal soldier of Sank, and the person who saw the pilot of Gundam 01 kill himself. Because Zechs is rebuilding the 01, Relena suspects that Heero is still alive. Noin asks him when he'll tell Relena the truth.
Heero and Trowa arrive at Marseilles, where Sylvia Noventa lives. The town is under attack, and Federation soldiers urge Sylvia to seek cover. Meanwhile at the battle, Trowa hijacks an OZ Aries and tunes in on the radio frequency to plan the strategy with Heero. The two Gundam pilots split up, and while Trowa hides with his Gundam, Heero goes off to find Sylvia Noventa. He finds her in the abandoned city, and nearly runs her over with his truck... Meanwhile, Federation forces discovers Trowa's Gundam, and decides to protect it until the pilot shows up. After the Federation suits have been destoyed by OZ forces, Trowa is back to make minced meat out of them, because he can't let anyone who sees him live to tell about it.
A bit later at a cemetary, Sylvia and Heero talk, and Heero asks Sylvia to kill him because he killed her grandfather by mistake. Heero explains that he hopes this killing will calm the souls of the relatives of Noventa, but Sylvia refuses to kill him, and calls him a coward. Heero says he hopes his good intentions show through and tells Sylvia he'll go find another relative on Sicily instead, before he leaves.
Meanwhile, Gundam 01 is officially blow up in front of inspector Acht's watchful eyes. He is sent out by the Romefeller foundation to make sure the Gundam is destroyed once and for all, and demads to see the wreckage because the Foundation distrusts Zechs, who is rumoured to be against them. After they leave, Zechs discusses the incident with a mechanic, and it's revealed to the viewers that it was a fake Gundam, with parts from the Tallgeese, that they blew up.
