Link to Episode 32 here:

The series starts with McGillis going to the frontline and subdued the initial Arbrau's defense force. They then proceed to move deeper into enemy territory, with Mr Galan and Tekkadan watching from their hidden location. Aston suggest that they use their teamwork to take down SAU's leader together.

McGillis head straight towards Arbrau's forward base with his forces to subdue them quickly. Arbrau's forces started engaging them in the forest.

Mr Galan engage with the other Mobile Suits and leave McGillis to Takaki and Aston to engage. McGillis tried to talk the kids out of their mission, but Aston refuted it and they continue to engage McGillis in combat. Takaki engage in melee, causing Aston unable to shoot his gun. Takaki got overpowered and when McGillis is about to deliver his finishing blow, Aston pushed Takaki out of the way and got hit instead. Aston quickly hold McGillis Mobile Suit in a lock to prevent him from running away. Galan Mossa arrived to deliver the finishing blow, but before he can, Gundam Barbatos arrived and prevented it.

Galan Mossa and the rest of his mercenaries' ruse was finally exposed, and they quickly run away under the cover of smoke screen. Mikazuki intends to give chase, but Takaki is desperately trying to save Aston.

Aston finally breathed his last while saying that Human Debris can't have emotion or else they will die, so they usually suppress their soul to survive.

Radice caught news of the sudden turn of event, and got panicked. He request an investigation into the matter, but Tekkadan has already arrived at his location without him realizing. He thought they couldn't land on Arbrau's spaceport, but they landed on SAU's spaceport instead and take a detour. Radice put the cause of the incident to Galan Mossa, and they interrogate him for Galan Mossa's location. Radice revealed that Galan Mossa hides at several hideout at the border of SAU.

They decide to deal with Galan before coming back to Radice. The remainder of Tekkadan with Akihiro Altland as the head begin attacking Galan's outpost. Galan instructed them to disperse and meet at their meeting point due to the number of pursuers. Mikazuki leads the newbie that tried to pilot a Mobile Suit to battle. Only Galan reached the designated point, and he complained about having to recruit new members from scratch. Akihiro found Galan alone, and they have a one-on-one battle. Akihiro utilize brute force in a melee while Galan utilize gun that he just loaded with ammo. Akihiro shoots his missile from a distance and Galan just barely managed to avoid direct hit by deflecting it with his arms.

The scene shifts to the newbie having a hard time fighting one of Galan's mercenaries. He has his shield and sword wrenched from him and was about to get the finishing blow, panicking all the while. Mikazuki saved him at the last minute and he was told not to get in the way.

The scene shifts to Akihiro engaging Galan and after some scuffle, was one-sidedly beaten up. Galan tried to escape and mocked Akihiro that decent man died first in battle.

Galan strike back with a blade on his shield, but Akihiro in the smoke dust uses a construction cutter to pinch Galan in between it. Akihiro then said that Galan is a decent man. Galan claimed that Akihiro will meet the same fate in the future, and self-destruct his Mobile Suit.

Lafter is worried of him and rushed to his location, but luckily Akihiro survived the explosion with little damage.

The team return to Earth Branch Tekkadan and interrogate Radice further. Radice pinned all the fault to Galan, saying he did what he did to protect Tekkadan. Mikazuki felt that they shouldn't waste tim talking and just punish him while brandishing a handgun. Takaki decide to talk with Radice himself because he claimed that it is Earth Branch's problem to start with. They let Takaki alone in the room with Radice, and discuss over it outside.

Takaki question Radice why he lied, and he lied again. He said that Orga and the Mars Tekkadan is too far away to understand and decide for them. Therefore, Takaki made his decision to shoot at Radice three times. The newbie by the name Hush got congratulated by his newbie teammates for piloting a Mobile Suit, but Hush is feeling down.The newbie got called to help out, and Hush told Dice that he felt bad about his powerlessness.

The scene change, and Mikazuki speaks with McGillis at the battle scene. McGillis believe that they are a part of Rustal's faction, but all evidence disappear with the death of Galan and the destruction of his Mobile Suit. McGillis reminded of a scene in Agnika Kaieru (Agnika Return), the man who created Gjallahorn.

Scene changed to Gjallahorn fleet, and Julieta can be seen to disbelieve the death of Galan. Rustal told her not to mourn for someone who don't exist, and doing so will trample on Galan's pride.

Takaki returned home and saw Fuka sleeping, but he's unable to tell her about Aston's death.

The episode concluded with the end of the nameless war.
