Relena's Secret is the fifth episode of Mobile Suit Gundam Wing. It first aired in Japan on May 5, 1995, and in North America on March 10, 2000.
Synopsis[]
Darlian ignores Lady Une.
A space shuttle containing Relena, Mr. Darlian and Lady Une takes off into space. Darlian refuses to talk to Lady Une on the way. Meanwhile on Earth, Relena's friends talk about her trip to the colonies. In his dorm room, Heero is sleeping but immediately wakes up when he receives a message on his computer about a new mission to attack a North Pacific OZ supply base. Relena's shuttle lands at a colony. Relena stares out the window in her hotel room, wondering why the colonies would want to start a war.
Relena mistakenly returns to Lady Une her makeup kit bomb.
Lady Une is dismissed from the meeting between the colony delegates and Darlian. As she leaves, she places her makeup kit, with a bomb inside, right outside the door. Relena heads up to the room to inform her father that she's going out to go shopping. She's about to leave, but notices the makeup kit. She brings it outside to Lady Une, who quickly throws it through the window. It blows up inside the room that Darlian and the colony delegates are meeting in.
Relena tends to her wounded father.
Relena runs up to the room and finds her father mortally wounded underneath a pile of rubble. A small group of men, possibly from the Colony Liberation Organization, arrive and pick him up. Suddenly, OZ troops arrive, but they are unable to apprehend the mysterious men. Relena refuses to go with them until the OZ soldiers start opening fire on her. She jumps into a van with them and it drives off. Lady Une stands in front of the van and shoots, but is unable to penetrate it and jumps out of the way.
Trowa leaves Quatre's home.
In the van, Relena demands they head to a hospital, but they can't since OZ soldiers would be waiting. Darlian starts talking. He tells Relena that he isn't her real father; her real parents were the Peacecrafts of the Sanc Kingdom. When the Sanc Kingdom was attacked by the Alliance, he was a senator there who took care of her when they escaped. He then passes out.
Wing Gundam prepares for its latest mission.
Back on Earth, Deathscythe is repaired for Duo by Howard, an older man with sunglasses and a Hawaiian t-shirt. Trowa leaves Quatre's mansion, but not before telling him his name. Elsewhere, Wufei infiltrates an OZ ship. In the woods near the St. Gabriel Academy, Wing Gundam rises up from its hiding place as Heero prepares it for take off. At Lake Victoria, the Tallgeese is being worked on while Zechs and Noin watch. Noin doesn't think it will be much use, but Zechs is confident in its abilities.
Doctor J.
Relena wakes up in a warehouse, and finds out that her father is dead. On the news, Lady Une blames colony terrorists for his assassination. Relena angrily grabs a gun from one of the men, blaming them for her father's death because they didn't bring him to the hospital. They manage to restrain her. When Relena mentions Heero, an elderly man with glasses and a robotic arm comes in. Zechs watches the news, commenting on Relena. Meanwhile, Wing Gundam arrives at its destination and blasts a pair of Leos at the OZ base. Aries mobile suits head out to counterattack, but Heero blasts them too.
Flashback of Heero Yuy's assassination.
As Heero continues his assault on the OZ base, the old man on the colony introduces himself to Relena as Dr. J. He claims to be the person who sent Heero to Earth. He says Heero is an agent who has been trained as a professional assassin since he was a young boy. Dr. J is confident that Heero will bring about peace. He tells her that 20 years ago there was a possibility of peace between the colonies and Earth. The colonies were led by a great man named Heero Yuy, whom the Gundam pilot Heero was code-named after. He says an OZ assassin killed the real Heero Yuy to end communication between the colonies and start a war.
Wing Gundam destroys a Leo behind Deathscythe.
Back on Earth, Heero prepares to blast the OZ base's main control tower. However, Duo arrives and destroys the tower first. Wing Gundam then aims its buster rifle at Deathscythe. Heero fires but ends up blasting a Leo behind Duo, which was the target all along. With the favor repaid, Heero takes off again. Meanwhile, Relena is dropped off at the space port and heads back to Earth.
