Why didn't he just hand the tape to MacKenzie?
>>14611038
Why WOULD he? The message is for Al, he only wanted to give her a short hello (and goodbye).
>>14611038
The spies would be executed anyway.

Cuz Zeeks are retarded

>There is a Zeon fleet heading here that will nuke the colony bunch if the Gundam is not destroyed. Please deliver this information to the Federation forces stationed here.
>>14611805
Did he even know she was the Gundam's pilot?
>>14611808
He doesn't really need to, what's important is getting the feddies involved so that they could evacuate, or intercept them, or fake the Gundam's destruction, or anything.I miss my burger. :(
something something soldier
something something THE MISSION
something something honor
>>14611038
Because by giving his plan, she will ruin it since she was a Feds pilot?
Because he don't want to upset her by him being a zeek?
Because bros before hoes?
>>14611038
He had no reason to send the tape to her, dummy. He barely knew the cunt and quite frankly it would've been an insult to Al for all the shit that he did for Bernie's team.
>>14611038
He didn't know she was the Gundam's pilot.
Otherwise, he would've given her the tape and sortied alngside her to defend the colony.
Bernie could much better assure colony's safety if he went to the police and revealed everything. Instead, he went with his retarded plan of keeping in secret the upcoming danger and appeasing one of the most one-dimensional Gundam villains in slim hopes this will make him give up nuking the colony.
Though it's simply the cultural thing. For Japan, traitors are the worst scums, no matter what. Bernie couldn't go against Zeon and he had to complete his mission. For Nips, it makes him principled tragic figure that did his best to prevent a war crime and honor his comrades. Even if his plan made no fucking sense and the show does NOTHING to point it's flaws besides saying "I could warn the colony, but it's a man thing to fight Gundam".
Who besides Char (who was an anti-hero at best, and a heinous scum at worst) was a heroic traitor in Gundam? Even SEED cast claimed to not fight against their side, but for their original side's best interest.
The OVA ruined Bernie by making the stakes way to hight and making his side batshit crazy (WE WILL NUKE MILLIONS TO DESTROY ONE GUNDAM). If Killing wasn't stopped and Bernie won his fight, the colony wouldn't be even warned that its fate depends on a whim of a war criminal with a nuke.

Bernie didn't deserve Al's admiration.
He was a filthy Zeek through and through.

>Bernie could much better assure colony's safety if he went to the police
Technically he was in the "neutral" Riah Republic. He could have defected, or just given the information over to a Riah Authority. It's not like he has to give it strait to the feddies.
>>14611805
That was a direction to Al if he failed to destroy the Gundam. The tape was meant to be a final goodbye and fallback device if shit went wrong.
>>14615968
The plan B is objectively better than the plan A.

>Federation is kicking Zeon's shit in at this point.
>A Baoa Qu takes place a mere week after War in the pocket ends
Quit being a faggot.
