Suddenly, a single Ride Armor rider appears, carrying a camera where her gun should be. She is Sue Graham, assigned to document the battles with the Inbit. Stick's group is horrified to find out that she filmed her comrades' destruction without lifting a finger to help them. Eventually, she seems to come around, and proposes a plan to fight the Inbit. Stick realizes that her plan to destroy the Inbit is actually just a plan to get some great camera footage of more Mars Base mecha being destroyed. The freedom fighters surprise her, and come out of the battle as victors. During the battle, Graham is mortally wounded. She dies after realizing her mistakes. Sue Graham is not the only casualty. During the battle, Aisha receives a cut on her arm. Where red blood should be flowing, only green blood appears.
