Ordering the jet to take off immediately, Scarlet and Blue intercept DT-19 in their Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle. The plane is unhindered by the Angels' airstrikes, and when the captains target its undercarriage with the SPV's rockets, the launch mechanism jams. Shouting down Blue's objections, Scarlet ejects him and rams DT-19's wheels, destroying them and bringing the plane to a crashing halt. He is fatally injured when the SPV collides with a radar bunker. Meanwhile, the jet takes off but hits one of DT-19's wings and crashes into a field, killing the Director General and everyone else on board. As Scarlet's body is taken away in an ambulance, the airport chief assumes that he is dead, to which Blue replies: "Maybe he didn't die ... in vain."
