[TYBUR CHILD chattering]
[WILLY] Well, Dad needs to get going.
I want you to try and stay out of trouble for me.
Listen to your big sister.
[TYBUR CHILD chattering]
I wanna go with you!
[TYBUR CHILD 63A] Yeah bring us with you!
[TYBUR CHILD chattering]
I'm so sorry, but no. I can't.
[TYBUR CHILD chattering]
Hey! Stop acting so selfish and behave yourselves.
You're making this harder for him.
[WILLY] Fine. Try and help them to get along.
I will! Good luck with your work!
[WILLY] Thanks. All right. Goodbye.
--See you soon! --[TYBUR CHILD chattering]
Darling...
[WILLY] I'm sorry. Take care of the kids.
[WILLY] Let's go.
[WILLY] Right. So, if they attack,
they'll do it during my speech, yes?
[MAGATH] Nothing's guaranteed, sir,
but that seems like the strongest possibility.
Most of Marley's highest ranked officers
will be gathered for it.
That's a rare occurrence.
I should mention, in accordance with protocol,
we're waiting to determine escape routes till later,
lest the information should leak.
I'll note that many VIPs will be arriving by carriage.
Got it. Seat the officers in a special section.
Group them, preferably at the edge of the crowd.
Is this really what you want to do, sir?
We Tyburs haven't just sat around enjoying ourselves.
At least this generation hasn't.
We've been at work.
Fostering relationships with the world's ruling class.
Improving people's perceptions of Eldians,
and keeping track of events on Paradis Island.
That said, we neglected to watch our backs.
Before we knew it, our enemies had crossed the sea,
when they were at our necks.
I fear that we could find our throats slashed
at any moment now.
It's become clear that the infiltrators received help
from within Marley, and the unsettling truth is
that we still don't know who gave it.
As you surely know, our motherland, Marley,
has many enemies.
Even within our own military.
And if you want to smoke out your enemies,
you light a fire beneath them.
We know when and where the foe intends to attack us.
That ought to give us the advantage.
Unless you have a better one, this is the plan.
Even if we can predict their moves,
we're putting far too much at stake.
We're sacrificing incompetent officers.
If the enemy's goal is to damage our military, then so be it.
This is an opportunity.
Start picking replacements now.
The party will approve anyone you choose
for your reformed military.
But, sir, so many will die.
And most will be Eldian civilians.
They're spawn of the devil, aren't they?
Don't change on me now, Commander.
You've ordered countless Eldians up and over
to meet their deaths in a hellscape
of barbed wire, landmines, and bullets.
So these ones won't be wearing uniforms.
That changes nothing.
You just need to keep doing what you've always done.
[MAGATH] Allow me to say one thing.
This isn't a war.
We don't know our enemies, their goals,
or how they plan to attack us.
When they make their move,
the crowd surrounding you will erupt in chaos.
[MAGATH] Lord Tybur.
If we go forward with this, and use you to bait the enemy,
I doubt I'll be able to protect you.
They'll do whatever it takes to make sure that you die.
Of course. I'm prepared for that.
Unless I stand on that stage, the world will not take notice.
There must be officers, ambassadors,
and journalists from around the globe in that audience.
[WILLY] And crucially,
the Eldian civilians who are killed,
myself included, must be mourned by all.
As victims of an "unforeseen attack."
If I escaped while my people died en masse,
the world would not rally to our cause.
I fully believe the Eldian race was spawned by the devil.
But I'm just as sure that we're devils ourselves.

[AUDIENCE screaming]
[MARLEYAN OFFICERS gasping]
[COLT] Gabi! Udo! Get up!
On your feet! Hurry!
[GABI] Huh...? Zofia...?
[EREN TITAN grunting]
--Zofia, no! Zofia! --Udo, you can't!
--Zofia! --Listen to me!
Come and help me! We have to lift this--
Udo!
[GABI screaming]
[LARA] You've fulfilled your duty as a Tybur, brother.
I'm so proud of you.
[EREN TITAN roars]
[EREN TITAN grunting]
[KOSLOW] Commander Magath!
The War Hammer Titan is getting pulverized!
Commander! The Warrior Unit's gone silent!
General Calvi and the rest of the brass are dead, sir!
Should we start evacuating...
We have to fall back before we're killed!
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65E] We need orders!
[KOSLOW] Commander!
[KOSLOW] Commander?
It was a harmless plink,
but the first shot has now been fired.
Our counterattack's begun.
I never thought they'd make such a grand entrance.
What's more, that looks to be the usurper
of the Founding Titan down there.
The Attack Titan.
[MAGATH] We're up against Eren Jaeger himself.
[MARLEYAN SOLDIERS gasp]
Just means he's saved us a trip to the island.
Get in position, men! Prepare for battle!
[MARLEYAN SOLDIERS] Understood, sir!
[EREN TITAN grunting]
[CITIZENS screaming]
Sheesh, what's all this commotion about?
Don't just stand there! We have to run--
Now, I don't want any of you forgetting.
The first attack that pierced the enemy came from my gun.
[CHILD 65A crying]
Shit! What is this?
The whole town's like a battlefield!
Is he okay?
[COLT] No. We need to get him to the hospital.
[gasps] Oh no. Udo.
What the hell?
Falco! Where are you?
Okay. What's going on here?
Based on all the tremors,
I think Titans must be fighting on the surface.
Wait, are you serious?
You have to admit that it would explain
why that soldier trapped us down here.
We need to join the fight quickly.
But how?
[PANZER UNIT 64A grunts]
[PANZER UNIT 64C] What the hell?
You're late!
--Sorry, Pieck! --Are you two okay?
[PIECK] Yeah! Throw us a rope!
[CARLO] On it!
The Panzer Unit. How'd they know we'd be here?
I thought Beardy looked suspicious,
so I told them to follow us.
[GALLIARD] Back then?
There's something up with this soldier.
Shadow us for a while.
[PANZER UNIT 64B] A Titan attacked and killed Lord Tybur
during his speech!
[GALLIARD] For real?
The War Hammer Titan's keeping it occupied
for the time being.
How far to the Cart's armor?
It's back at HQ!
We can equip it in 15 minutes.
Do it in ten.
[PANZER UNIT] Roger that.
I'm going on ahead.
[PIECK] Hold on, Porco.
Don't rush in till you know what you're--
[GALLIARD gasps] What the--?
There's no way.
How'd they get here?
[yells]
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65H] We hit it!
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65I] Yeah, take that!
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65J] These Anti-Titan cannons pack a punch!
This is our chance.
We can finish off Eren Jaeger here and now.
If we strip them of the Founding Titan, they're finished!
--Not so. --Huh?
If we kill the Founder,
it will only postpone the problem.
What we need is to have the War Hammer Titan eat it!
Our mission is to make sure that happens.
Right. But, sir. It's just--
It doesn't actually look like the War Hammer's
trying to eat it.
[MARLEYAN SOLDIERS gasp]
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65K] Look at that!
The War Hammer's a monster!
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65L] It beat the Attack Titan!
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65M] The War Hammer wins!
That's him. Eren Jaeger.
[KOSLOW gasps] It-- It's gonna finish him off!
[WAR HAMMER TITAN] Usurper Eren Jaeger.
Before you die, you may utter your final words.
It's time, Mikasa.
[MIKASA grunts]
[gasps]
[MARLEYAN SOLDIERS scream]
Glad to see that all of you made it.
Please. Eren. Come home.
[MAGATH] Our chain of command has been shattered.
This is the ultimate test of our military's strength.
Cancel the special vigilance training at once.
Bring that entire division down from the mountains.
Call in the fleet as well.
And bring in all 30,000 soldiers
we have stationed to the east and west.
I want the Internment Zone sealed off! Surround us.
Don't let a single Island Devil escape,
especially not the Founder!
[MAGATH] Go ahead and wreak havoc while you can.
Your fates are sealed.
This has gone exactly as Willy planned.
The entire world now considers the Eldian Empire a threat.
And every nation that lost government officials
to this massacre is now a party to this war.
This world can no longer risk letting you live.
But, you must've realized that going into this.
Which means...
[MARLEYAN SOLDIERS gasp]
[MARLEYAN SOLDIERS scream]
Damn devils!
Fight! Shoot!
[JEAN] Idiots.
Hey! Are you trying to burn down the whole Internment Zone?
We need to try to keep civilian casualties to a minimum.
Understand me, Floch?
Everyone here is an enemy.
These are just our enemy's homes.
Don't forget what they did to us.
The Titans who've been slaughtering our people
for years came from here, right?
They've been eating us alive!
So they've got this coming and then some!
Seriously, you have to stop thinking like that.
Look there. He's telling us something.
That we have to fight.
We can't just cower behind our walls,
waiting for death to come.
We need to fight like he does.
Like devils.
Hey. Eren.
You understand what you've done, don't you?
[MIKASA] You've killed so many civilians.
Innocent people. Kids.
[MIKASA] There's no taking this back.
[EREN] It's not over, Mikasa.
[MIKASA gasps] That's impossible!
I blew up the nape of its neck.
And I crushed its nape with all my strength.
Yet, it's still alive.
[MIKASA gasps]
[EREN] Huh.
I think I get it now.
The War Hammer Titan uses hardening
to make whatever it needs.
And it won't die,
no matter how much damage we deal to its neck.
Mikasa. Keep it occupied for me.
If this works, I'll be able to eat the War Hammer.
[MIKASA gasps]
[CITIZENS groaning]
[DOCTOR 63A] I'm truly sorry, but we're overwhelmed as it is.
And that child is already deceased.
No. Wait. You haven't even looked at him yet!
[DOCTOR 63A] If you're actually a Warrior candidate,
then wake up and look at reality.
[NURSE 63A] Doctor! We need you!
[DOCTOR 63A] Right! On my way!
[COLT] Gabi. You should go find your family.
I'm not sure if anywhere's safe, but...
...get as far from the plaza as you can.
I just need to track down Falco--
[GABI] I'm going, too.
Because I don't get why Udo and Zofia... needed to die.
Wait. It's not safe, Gabi!
[GUARD 63A] Hey, stop!
You're heading straight into a war zone, kid!
Gabi!
[GUARD 63A] What are you doing here?
Oh, it's you two. I'm ready to fight, so let me pass!
Stop acting like a stupid brat.
Find your family and lay low.
[BOTH gasp]
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65Y] What the--?
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65Z] We're under attack!
[MARLEYAN SOLDIER 65AA] Where from?
[MARLEYAN SOLDIERS scream]
Above us!
Oh shit. Start running and don't--
[GUARD 63A gasps] Son of a--
Oh my god.
This street's blocked off. Let's go, Sasha.
Slow down.
You forgot that we need to set a lamp out, Conny.
[CONNY] Oh. Right.
We've stalled their reinforcements.
What about the lights?
All of them are in place now.
Are things going all right?
They are for now at least.
[JEAN] If we can take that thing out soon, we'll be fine.
But that's a big if.
Looks like anything could happen at this point.
[MIKASA grunts]
The only way to find out what will come next
is to make it out of this mess alive. So focus.
[EREN] I knew that something was off.
There was something abnormal about
the way the War Hammer materialized.
[EREN] It was the first time I'd seen a Titan
form from the feet up.
[EREN] Not from its neck,
but from beneath the stage it was standing on.
[EREN] So that's where its body is.
[EREN TITAN roars]
Damn it. The War Hammer's about to get eaten!
This is the moment I've been waiting for!
I'm taking the Founder right now!
Eren!
[GALLIARD gasps] Why... can't I bite?
Wait. Could that be him?
Is that Ackermann?
[GALLIARD] I need to fall back.
[GALLIARD groaning] What the hell?
Can't you see I'm a Titan?
Are a bunch of humans...
...really about to come and kill me?
[GALLIARD] No. They're not humans.
They're devils!
