Badly outnumbered, Yuuya volunteers to fight all 24 TSFs himself to buy time for the rest of Argos to escape. While he destroys many of them, he is soon surrounded; he is however saved by the timely intervention of Inia. The rest of them return, citing that they saw and followed Inia. With the tables turned, Ozlem executes a suicide attack. Mariem, one of the RLF, confronts Dahl and pleads that he join them; when she receives news of her sister's death, she tries to kill Dahl but fails. The RLF announces to the world and announces their demands. In addition, they announce to the whole world of the US secret BETA research facility (where they released all the BETA) and the Red shift, a last ditch plan that incorporates Hydrogen bombs buried beneath Alaska to create a new defense line in case of a BETA invasion. However this will mean the mass extermination of all Soviet citizens leaving near the area. Yuuya plans to steal weapons from a Soviet patrol base, citing guerrilla reasons. Major Christopher, the head of the RLF invasion, initiates his own plan.
