Major Events

 * The 37th returns to Alaska to stop the Information Alliance.
 * The Baby Magnum and the Rush begin their fight, which ends with the Objects damaging each other. Both Elite pilots decide to temporarily retreat from battle and go for a pit stop.
 * Quenser and Heivia are ordered by Froleytia to do something to slow down the Rush's maintenance, as it's predicted to be over sooner than the Baby Magnum's. They ambush the Object in a narrow pass and Quenser uses electromagnets to climb on top of it. When the Elite opens up the hatch to her cockpit during maintenance he boards the Object.
 * While trying to hold the Rush's Elite hostage with his knife, Quenser realizes that "Oh Ho Ho"'s body seen in concerts and video communications is false, with her actually being a young kid.

Differences in Adaptation

 * The initial scene before the opening with Froleytia doing a special inspection and taking Quenser and Heivia's porn mags away from them illustrates something that was only referenced in the original novel.
 * In the original novel, Quenser and Heivia experience some technical difficulties setting up the explosives to block the enemy's possible routes which are not present in the anime.
 * In the original novel, Froleytia acts more embarassed when she screws up playing pool and orders Quenser to kick her in the butt with all his strength.
