Episode Summary

EDIT

IN: The Day the Bridge Falls; <i>MARTIAL LAW</i>

AIRED: 5/7/06

The Chief Cabinet Secretary uses the excuse of the refugees possessing 10K of plutonium to mobilize the Special Forces against Dejima. With the available evidence against the refugees, Prime Minister Kayabuki reluctantly agrees. However, she soon learns from the Chief Cabinet Secretary that he's aligned himself with Imperial America and is now after her job. Knowing her days as P.M. is numbered, she agrees with Aramaki's plan and calls the U.N. in for a nuclear inspection of Dejima. The move buys them some time to defuse the situation, and Section 9 heads to Dejima to meet up with the U.N in two days. However, with tensions running high it is only a matter of time before someone fires the first shots.moreless

Ok even though this episode was more talk, less action, this episode had to be the most intelligent episode in this season. I mean if a nuclear device was station at a city in real life, I wouldn\\\'t know what would be the outcome. Its obvious now that Kuze is Major\\\'s first love.
