The rig gets stuck, and a Britannian soldier mistakes Lelouch for a terrorist. Luckily, he's an old friend, but before they can get reacquainted, the stolen capsule opens.
It contains, not poison gas as rumored, but a girl.
The soldiers who arrive get it all wrong.
Before they can kill Lelouch, the actual terrorist blows a bomb he had hidden.
Prince Clovis, fearful that he's lost control of the situation, orders a purge of the ghetto that the terrorists were fleeing towards.
Lelouch and the girl flee, but there are soldiers waiting.
