第9話: 元教官が不法投棄事件の瓦礫地区を検分

9

Gigalt Gangaragash, Hachimaki's extra-vehicular activity former instructor, visits the Debris Section as part of a safety inspection. Hachimaki asks Tanabe if she is seeing anyone, and she replies that she is not. Hachimaki formerly dated Claire, much to Tanabe's surprise. Gigalt explains to Tanabe that Hachimaki wears his headband when he is focused. On a debris hauling run supervised by Gigalt, the crew encounters a group performing illegal debris dumping. Hachimaki and Gigalt try to stop them, but Hachimaki becomes glued to the vessel, while Gigalt is rescued by Tanabe after his suit thrusters become damaged. Hakim Ashmead, also one of Gigalt's former pupils who now works for the Orbital Security Agency (OSA), arrives to arrest the illegal haulers and save Hachimaki. Tanabe finds out that Gigalt has cancer while fixing his thrusters, and is told to not tell Hachimaki. (Source: Wikipedia)
