Episode Title:
Tempest Turn.
Episode Description:
After spending a week in solitary confinement for her actions, Satellizer faces Ingrid Bernstein, a third-year who challenges her to a duel to punish her for going against the third-years and tells her to find a Limiter. Upon hearing about it, Kazuya asks Satellizer to let him be her partner, but she again refuses. Afterwards, Satellizer attacks Ingrid before their match, but Ingrid is well-prepared and gets the upper hand. When her Limiter, Leo, arrives, Ingrid gives Satellizer one more chance find a Limiter, for which Kazuya volunteers despite being warned of the consequences by Ingrid. Thanks to his powerful Freezing ability, Satellizer is able to knock down both Leo and Ingrid, but, hellbent on punishing Satellizer, Ingrid refuses to give up and goes into Pandora Mode, leaving Kazuya confused as to why Ingrid takes hierarchy discipline so seriously. Ganessa reveals to Kazuya that a year ago during an outdoor training session, Ingrid's best friend Marin died when she fought a Nova alone, and she believes Marin would have survived had the younger students not run away due to a lack of discipline in their ranks. Hearing this, Kazuya freezes Ingrid and tells her that he understands her pain just like he had when he lost his sister. He tells her actions are tainting her late friend's memories, that Marin did not die in vain as she was actually sacrificing her life to protect the younger students. With Ganessa confirming it as well, Ingrid realizes this is not what Marin wanted, and breaks down in tears.
