IBUKI (OFF):“Damage on both Eva units”

IBUKI (OFF):“is beyond the Hayflick Limit.”

RITSUKO (OFF):“It'll take time”

Mr. Tines: The Hayflick limit is is the number of times a normal somatic, differentiated human cell population will divide before cell division stops (due to telomere erosion).

RITSUKO (OFF):“before everything goes back to normal.”

IBUKI (OFF):“Fortunately,”

IBUKI (OFF):“the Magi System can be transferred.”




20 C009.jpg

IBUKI:“We'll start working on that as early as tomorrow.”

RITSUKO:“But this place will have to be scrapped.”

AOBA (OFF):“It's just a matter of time before the brass decides to abandon it.”

RITSUKO (OFF):“That's true.”

RITSUKO:“For the time being,”

RITSUKO (OFF):“we'll have to use the backup Secondary Control Center.”

IBUKI (OFF):“You mean, even without the Magi?”

RITSUKO (OFF):“That's right.”

RITSUKO:“We'll dust it off and be working again by this afternoon.”

IBUKI:“But these chairs are hard, and the sensors haven't been broken in, so it's difficult to work here.”

AOBA:“Even though the layout is the same as the control center we're familiar with.”

IBUKI:“It just doesn't feel right, you know?”

Mr. Tines: Surely someone on staff would be able to move the surviving chairs...


Dr. Nick: There's a little bit of missed visual storytelling potential here. Maya may complain about the chairs, but in practical terms the secondary control center is indistinguishable from the original; it would better drive home Nerv's precarious situation if the secondary one had the same layout but was otherwise noticeably smaller and dingier. Our heroes have had their battle bridge knocked out, and there are still some presumably very strong Angels to deal with.

RITSUKO:“At least we can use this place. But what we don't know is whether we can still use Unit 01.”

Mr. Tines: Still unanswered, how they caged the raving beast; and what state it was in at the time (e.g. shedding more and more armour)


UrsusArctos: Sadamoto tried to address this in his manga by having Tokyo-3's surviving defensive systems restrain the rampaging Eva, with the implication that the city's defenses were really built to keep the Evas in rather than the Angels out. Not the greatest of explanations, but there doesn't seem to be a better answer to the question.


Mbryo: I'm guessing that Yui let herself be captured, or just shut down on her own after she was done with all the screaming. She did the same thing in Episode 02 and 16. Yui is in control of the Evangelion's actions so despite how animalistic she may appear to be, she has no reason to be hostile towards humanity.

MISATO:“Restrained by the cage... are you sure it's safe?”

HYUGA:“No internal thermal, electron, electromagnetic, or chemical energy readings are being detected. The S2 engine is completely inactive.”

MISATO:“Nevertheless,”

UrsusArctos: I understand bandaging the areas where the bindings were ripped out, but why bandage the head?

MISATO:“under those conditions, Unit 01 has moved on three separate occasions.”

MISATO:“You can't treat it carelessly based only on what we can see and measure.”

HYUGA:“We don't know what it'll do if we meddle with it carelessly. Just like you, Miss Katsuragi.”




20 C023.jpg

HYUGA:“I'm sorry.”

KEEL:“However, our concerns are not limited to Unit 01.”

COMMITTEEMAN ?:“Correct. Serious damage was sustained by Units 00 and 02. Headquarters was partially destroyed, Central Dogma exposed. The damages are enormous.”

COMMITTEEMAN ?:“We can't even estimate how much money and time we've lost.”

COMMITTEEMAN ?:“All this is because we didn't put a bell around Ikari's neck.”

COMMITTEEMAN ?:“There is a bell, it just didn't ring.”

KEEL:“A bell that doesn't ring serves no purpose.”




20 C025.jpg

025

KEEL:“We'll have the bell take action next time.”

KAJI:“My, my, what an unexpected turn of events.”

Mr. Tines: He should have sneezed before speaking.


UrsusArctos: Agreed, although that would've ruined the parallel with Episode 08 and Kaji's rather British tendency for understatement.

KAJI:“The committee... I mean, how do you intend to explain this to Seele?”

FUYUTSUKI:“Unit 01 wasn't under our control. This was an unexpected accident.”

IKARI:“Therefore Unit 01 will stay frozen until the Committee gives us further orders.”

KAJI:“That's a very appropriate decision. However,”

UrsusArctos: As seen at the start of the episode, the Committee near-immediately came to the conclusion (correctly!) that Gendo wanted this incident to happen and threaten their script. Of course, their trust in him is severely eroded after this, but I wonder how he managed to keep them off his back long enough, even with Eva-01 frozen.




20 C029.jpg

029

KAJI:“is your son still trapped inside it?”

Dr. Nick: Kaji points out Gendo's disturbing lack of concern for his son, but considering that Gendo's plan for the Human Instrumentality does involve combining everyone's souls into one, he might just see this as Shinji skipping the queue. Staying prematurely tanged inside Eva-01 also means that Shinji will definitely stay safe until the Third Impact and the soul fusion. Nerv would be out one pilot, but I guess Gendo assumes the newly S2-powered Yui will be able to handle the remaining Angels by herself if need be.
