YMF-X000A Dreadnought Gundam
I didn't recognize what this mobile suit was, but apparently it was from the Astray Manga. It's an alright looking mech. Visually, this episode was a step down from the previous one though. I'm not entirely sure what was going on here to be honest. I couldn't tell if this stuff was really happening, or if the pilot was hallucinating or what.

XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero
The episode starts out with Dr. J talking to a shadowy figure about how people love to identify humans not as individuals but as groups. He then transitions to how the reason they picked the person they did is because he never quit. It then cuts to a scene where a person in a space suit who has Heero's slouchy posture is sneaking into some orbiting facility. He breaks in, steals a transport pod and tries to escape. Eventually, the pod ship thing is shot, it explodes. But out from it comes the Wing Zero (Endless Waltz version btw). He blows up the facility and flies off. Cuts back to Dr. J and the shadow (who is revealed to be Relena). Dr. J says that the name he gave the boy was Heero Yuy. Cuts back to Heero, inside the wing zero, who then gives his typical ass smirk as he watches the destruction.

GAT-X105 Strike Gundam
It's pretty much exactly what you'd expect from something as far as Seed is concerned. A ZAFT dude is talking with his comrade about how he's concerned since Waltfeld was destroyed. his partner laughes and is like "no way will we lose". Out of nowhere the Strike presumably piloted by Kira shows up and kills everything (this is before his no kill rule) in exciting and flashy ways. Lots of John-Woo esque hijinx. Tons of bullet time and slow motion and mid air rolls. If nothing else, it was amusing to watch.

MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam
I expected Kamille but instead i got something else.

This episode was long as hell. It has 3 Zetas in it, one of which is piloted by Amuro though they never call him by name, just by his call sign "White Unicorn". Anyway, the 3 Zetas are deployed from Earth to take on some sort of Newtype Mobile Armor. Amuro and the Yellow Zeta have their hands full, but the Red Zeta (who's pilot had a random encounter with Amuro during the One Year War when he almost ran her over) is captured by the machine. It's operators begin using Newtype powers to download Karaba and AEUG military secrets from her brain and assault their base. Amuro uses his Newtype powers to wake her up and she blows up the Mobile Armor.

One of the weirder things about this episode was the fact that the Red Zeta was not a normal Zeta. It almost seemed like it had a psycho frame or something. The pilot, Yuri, was not "piloting" it in the normal sense. It was like she was psychically controlling it and using gestures like how Domon does.
