Our First Battle Comes to a Climax!.Miho takes advantage of the radio interceptor balloon once again to lure the bulk of the Saunders forces away from the battlefield, giving the Ooarai teams enough time to find the Saunders flag tank and lure it into an ambush. Upon learning of the unsportsmanlike tactic by her subordinate Alisa of tapping into Ooarai's radio messages, Saunders commander Kay decides to make amends by reducing the number of her active tanks to match those of Ooarai. As the Ooarai teams chase after the Saunders flag tank, their own tanks begin to be taken out by Kay's pursuing forces. Facing imminent defeat, Miho gambles on the risky tactic of having her tank climb atop a ridge, where Hana manages to take out the Saunders flag tank and win the match just before they themselves are taken out. After Kay commends Miho on her victory and takes her leave, Mako learns that her grandmother, Hisako Reizei, has been taken to a hospital. Overhearing this, Maho, who was watching the match, instructs Erika to fly both Mako and Saori to the hospital.
