288

The monitor changes suddenly.
The word “"ERROR"” appears.

SE <<Warning sound>>

BGM Start: E-7 [MARKING TIME, WAITING FOR DEATH]

MISATO:“Error?”




289
Misato is like, "huh?"

The monitor is reflected in her visor.
She tries again. The reflection upon her visor changes.

MISATO:“What is this?”

SE <<Sound of typing>>




290

She strikes the key again.

SE <<Click!!>>




291

Close-up of the word “"ERROR".”

SE <<Beeeeeep beeeeeep>>

ath: Is this the same font used for Rebirth's eyecatch?


292

Misato talking to herself.
The word "“ERROR"” is reflected in her visor.
Misato, convinced.

MISATO:“...There's no doubt.”




293

Misato sits up.
For a short time she looks around, stunned.

MISATO:“The program has been altered.”

UrsusArctos: Even a gumshoe detective would have been very suspicious of Nerv's involvement in the incident. Had Misato really thought back to this moment later, she'd have realized that Nerv was involved in something they weren't telling her about. But this moment passes, without further thought or comment.


FrDougal9000: The biggest criticism I hear of this episode is how 'pointless' it is: it doesn't advance the plot, and nothing particularly interesting of note happens. Now, I disagree with that opinion, but I feel that if Misato thought back to this moment, even just once, it would have made it clearer to viewers that this episode did matter (at least in the sense that episodes should only matter by their contributions to the plot).


Sailor Star Dust: Maybe she did, 'off-screen' in Episode 15 or 16? (A pity if that's what it came down to, since this episode is incredibly important regarding Nerv's shady side.)


294

Unit-01, holding back J.A.
J.A. suddenly loses its strength.

SE <<CRASH>>




295

With a “"fwssssh",” steam suddenly begins to escape from the hole covered by Unit-01's hand!!

SE <<Vwssssh>>

The Flying Fortress: I don't know much about physics, but I don't think he should've used 01's hand to plug the leak in JA. Wouldn't this have increased the pressure, and made it explode faster?


296

Shinji is like, "“uwaa~!”"

SHINJI:“Auh!?”




297

He frantically places the left hand over the hole as well.




298

However, another column of steam erupts from the back!!

SE <<Bang!! Pssssshhhhh!!>>




299

Close-up of a monitor. “"DANGER".”

SE <<Warning sound>>




300

Close-up of a monitor. There are only three green indicators remaining!
The number drops from three to two.

CONTROLLER B (OFF・RIGHT):“The power reactor is 0.2 short of critical!”




301

Tokita, glaring straight ahead.

CONTROLLER A (OFF・RIGHT):“The control rods are not functioning!”




302

Misato makes a decision. She shifts her gaze to the left.

MISATO:“...Now, it's all or nothing.”




303

Misato places her hands upon a protruding control rod.




304

Using all of her strength, Misato tries to push it in.




305

Close-up of the base of the rod. It only shudders.




306

Misato pushes with her entire body. She's dripping with sweat!!

MISATO:“Nnnnnnnnnnnnn!!”

Kendrix: Clearly these things were never meant to be operated by hand. She's got some determination!




307

The base of the rod begins to sink in a little.




308

Close-up of Misato straining herself.
Sweat is dripping onto her visor.

MISATO:“Urrrrrrrrrrgh!!”




309

Misato's efforts in vain, J.A.'s body begins to spout steam from a number of different places all at once!

SE <<Vssssssshhh!!>>




310

There is nothing that Shinji can do.
He is in a panic! (Half-crying)

SHINJI:“MISATO-SAN!!
GET OUT OF THERE!!”

Kendrix: Now he's really worried that she's gonna get herself blown up.




311

Misato, persevering.

MISATO:“MOVE!!
YOOUU- (bleed)”




312

The base of the rod, sinking inwards.




313

Further spouting!!
The steam strikes the Eva as well!!

SE <<Vshhhhuuuuuu!!>>




314

Extreme close-up of Shinji. He is almost in tears!!

SHINJI:“MISATO-SAN!”

Sailor Star Dust: Props to Ogata's voice acting in this scene. You can just feel Shinji's tension throughout this entire ordeal.


Kendrix: At this point, he's cried in more episodes than not, but we can forgive him here. We don't want Misato to get cooked either!



315

Misato, pushing.

SE <<Warning sounds multiplying, one after another!!>>




316

Close-up of the same.




317

A monitor. The green indicators are reduced to only one!!

CONTROLLER B (OFF):“0.1 to critical!!”

MAN 3:“Internal pressure has passed the limit point!”




318
Tokita, with the heads of the controllers in the foreground.

CONTROLLER A:“It's no use!!”




319

Tokita hangs his head, murmuring in despair.

CONTROLLER A (OFF):“IT'S GOING TO EXPLODE!!”

TOKITA:“... It's over.”

MAN 2:“The moderator has failed to inject.”




320

Shinji's tearful face. Ultra close-up.

SHINJI:“MISATO-SAN!!”




321

Extreme close-up of Misato, persevering.

MISATO:“Ugghhhhh.”

Kendrix: Perseverant to the end.




322

The monitor, showing the word "“ERROR",” suddenly changes. It goes back to the startup screen.

SE <<Beep>>




323

All the control rods start to sink in at once.
Misato suddenly falls over.

SE <<Beeeeeeeeeeep>>




324

Misato, dumbfounded.




325

The control rods have all completely sunk in. The lights turn to green.

SE <<Vree-eee-een>>

SE <<Ka-chack!>>




326
The steam suddenly stops, and all the control rods on the back sink in at once.


BGM End: E-7 [MARKING TIME, WAITING FOR DEATH]


SE <<Shooooooooon>>



Unit-01 slowly removes its hands from J.A.


327

Shinji is also dumbfounded.
He blinks once.




328

Close-up of a monitor. All at once, from the top down, the indicators change to green.

SE <<Beeeeep>>

CONTROLLER A (OFF):“She did it!”

MAN 2:“Moderator injection confirmed!”

SEELE-01: Ah... That running gag of being saved at the last possible square of a graphical representation of an abstract computer concept.


329

Tokita, dumbfounded.
A slight smile emerges.

CONTROLLER B (OFF):“Internal pressure decreasing!!”

CONTROLLER A (OFF):“All readings normal!!”

MAN:“Emergency brake mechanism is operational!”




330

The several staff members within the ruined bunker are delighted.

EVERYONE:“We're saved!! (Etc. - Ad-lib)”

Male chatter:“She did it! We're saved! (ect.)”




331

Ritsuko leaning against the wall.
The staff are noisily celebrating in the foreground.

The Flying Fortress: YEEEE! This guy celebrates giving little jumps, that's funny, you can not deny it.

Sailor Star Dust: Hey, it made me chuckle!


332

Close-up of Ritsuko. She speaks in a mutter.
(She's talking about Misato.)

RITSUKO:“...That idiot.”

Kendrix: Of course heroism would look idiotic to a cynic. Unlike her, Misato wouldn't know that the robot would not actually blow up.




333

Missing number.

Nuclear Lunchbox: The storyboards actually denote this cut as containing Ritsuko's lines, but the scripts moved the content to cut 332 instead. Script directions supersede storyboard directions, so this cut became obsolete.


UrsusArctos: If you look at the storyboards, you'll see that 331 is the missing number there. The cut's the same and contains her lines, it's just that the missing number was shifted to 333.


334

J.A., lifeless.
Unit-01 seems to be peering into it.

SHINJI (OFF):“Misato-san!?
Are you all right!?”




335

Inside the control room. Misato sitting down exhausted.
She replies weakly to Shinji's calls.

SHINJI (RADIO):“Misato-san!!”

MISATO:“Yeah. I feel like crap, though.”




336
Misato, appearing to be in a daze.

Shinji talks excitedly by himself. His voice, the only sound, echoes inside the chamber.

SHINJI:“Thank goodness! You're safe!?... Thank goodness, really, thank goodness... but that was amazing.
I'm so impressed! A miracle really occurred!!”

At the end of the cut she moves a little, and her face can be seen.

MISATO:“...Yeah.”


337

Shift to close angle. Close-up in profile.
She speaks in an undertone.
Her expression is extremely serious (something has occurred to her).

MISATO (MONO):“A miracle had been prepared.
...By someone.”

UrsusArctos: And which party has the motive and the ability to prepare this particular miracle, Misato? Why did your old buddy Ritsuko act so weirdly throughout the incident?


Kendrix: The German dub rendered this as "This Miracle has been pre-programmed by someone". Since Ritsuko's failsafe kicked in, we'll never learn if Misato's actions could have accomplished anything on their own, with the tendency being "probably not". She basically provided Gendo & Ritsuko with an alibi - but this is the first time she seriously starts to suspect shady dealings beyond just having general ethical qualms which she can still justify to herself.
