Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion - The Blue Reckoning - Chapter 6: STAGE 6: The Two Zeros - Episode 3

It turns out that when Delfina had attempted to shoot the real Zero, C.C. had jumped in front of him to block the shot. The person Delfina originally thought to be Zero was actually (Captain), commanded by Lelouch's Geass to take the role of Zero. This gave Lelouch the opportunity to use his Geass on Delfina, causing her to believe that Lelouch was actually Nunnally.

---

Delfina: This is the end of the line for you, Zero. You were foolish to come alone.

Delfina: But don't worry. My big sister and I will take good care of Nunnally...

Zero: ...

Delfina aims her gun at Zero and puts her finger on the trigger.

Delfina: What!

She fires without a moment of hesitation, but the bullet hits C.C. in the chest instead.

C.C.: Ngh!

C.C.: So it's true—you really can't read my mind.

Because C.C. is a Code bearer, the power of Geass doesn't work on her.

As a result, Delfina is unable to read C.C.'s mind.

Making use of that unique trait, C.C. approaches in secret, protecting Zero from the bullet just in time.

C.C.: Now, Lelouch! (Captain)!

Zero: ...!

At C.C.'s signal, Zero immediately restrains Delfina as another figure approaches.

Lelouch: With this, I call check, false Zero. No—Delfina Angell.

Delfina: Wait, if you're Lelouch... Who's that Zero?

(Captain): ...

Zero removes the mask to reveal the face of not Lelouch, but (Captain).

Delfina: You're that skyfarer!

Lelouch: I had (Captain) play the part of Zero for the sake of my plan.

Lelouch: You see, I gave the captain one simple command...

Lelouch: As long as you wear the mask of Zero, you are Zero.

I am Zero. Lelouch used the power of Geass to make (Captain) fully believe this statement.

However, believing oneself to be Zero does not automatically come with Lelouch's exceptional ability to strategize.

Thus even after reading (Captain)'s mind, Delfina continued to believe the true Zero stood before her.

With the true strategy suppressed in (Captain)'s mind, the captain was able to give the perfect performance of a Zero who had exhausted all his options.

Believing herself to be victorious, the fake Zero had let down her guard and failed to notice C.C. ambushing her.

Lelouch: Now then, it's time to have you do my bidding—Delfina!

Lelouch: Lelouch vi Britannia commands you...

Believe that Zero committed suicide, and take Lelouch to your hideout as Nunnally.

By using his Geass on Delfina, Lelouch was able to infiltrate her hideout and kill Carmen.

Lelouch: There were two mistakes that led to your defeat. The first was having too much faith in your own Geass and choosing to fight alone...

Lelouch walks calmly over to the table and picks up the small bottle lying on it.

Inside the bottle is the antiviral drug that can cure Nunnally's virus.

Lelouch: The second mistake was making enemies out of us.

Delfina: Ugh!

Realizing she has been completely outwitted by Lelouch, she glares at him venomously.

Delfina: How could you... How could you!

Delfina: You killed my big sister! My only family!

Lelouch: Your sister? Then tell me—why was Carmen after Nunnally?

Lelouch: There must be a reason she wouldn't accept you as her little sister instead!

Delfina: ...!

Carmen: Louisa... Why did she have to be killed in such a horrible way...

Delfina: Don't worry, Sis. I'm here. I'll love you in Louisa's pla—

Carmen: Shut up, shut up, shut up! Stop acting like you're my little sister! You let Louisa die!

Carmen: Do you think I don't know what you did to her?

Carmen: You murderer! Louisa is my one and only sister!

Carmen: No one can replace her! Give her back! Please! Give me back my Louisa!

Delfina: ...

Carmen: Zero... It's all his fault that my sister is gone... Zerooo!

Magnesia: ...

Delfina: ...!
Sis! You activated the device again?

Carmen: Of course I did! I will have revenge on Zero!

Carmen: He'll pay for what he did to Louisa! His day of reckoning will come!

Carmen: You're such a good girl, Nunnally... I love you... My precious little sister...

Delfina: Why Nunnally? Is it because she's blind like your sister was?

Delfina: (If I just kill Nunnally... But wait, if Nunnally is taken away from her, Sis is sure to lose her mind completely.)

Delfina: (I have to stay strong. Sis treated me just like a little sister when I was all alone in the Order.)

Delfina: (So even if I can't be her real little sister, I still...)

Delfina: Shut up... Shut up, shut up!

Delfina: This is all because of you, Zero! If you hadn't interfered, those happy days would have continued forever! It's all your fault!

Lelouch: I won't fault you for acting on behalf of your own desires.

Lelouch: But you have to take responsibility for those actions.

Lelouch: If you're going to take things from others, you have to be prepared to have something taken from you.

As if on cue, the ceiling begins to quake as debris and pebbles begin to fall from above.

Delfina: ...!
You brought your friends?

Lelouch: It's time to end this, Delfina Angell!

Lelouch and Delfina—the two Zeros glare at each other, poised to fight.
