[Captain Gloval announces the news of the SDF-1's forced departure from Earth]

Captain Gloval:
This is Captain Gloval speaking with a very important announcement to all of you on board the SDF-1. As many of you may already know, ever since we returned to Earth, I have appealed many times to the government and the Defense Force for permission to allow you to leave this ship and resettle wherever you may choose. Time and again, those appeals were turned down and I wish I could explain it to you at this time. However, I always felt that progress was being made on those requests. That is, until the events of the last few weeks. My friends, I'm afraid I have some very bad news to tell you. I've received word just a while ago that this ship and all of its passengers have been ordered to leave the Earth immediately. Furthermore, if we do not evacuate this planet, we were warned that we might be attacked by elements of our own Defense Forces. This is an unthinkable possibility. We have therefore taken on supplies and are prepared to leave the surface of the planet. I desperately need all of your cooperation in this moment of terrible responsibility. We must all work for the day that the Earth will take us back and until then, we will survive as best we can. I give you my most humble apology. [slightly bows in shame]

Lynn Minmei:
[goes to his side] Oh... Listen everyone, the Captain needs our support more than ever right now! Look, I don't understand anything that has to do with politics, but I do know the only way we'll survive this is to pull together. We've been together in this ship for a long time now, and I don't know about you, but I think of the SDF-1 as my home now. Don't forget, this ship has almost everything we have back on Earth, our own town and all the things that go along with it. We've all been through quite a bit, but look at how strong we've become because of it. I have more friends here than I ever did on Earth. You've been like a big family to me. Someday we'll come back to Earth - we'll never give up hope. But for now, I'm proud to be a citizen of Macross City and this ship.
