Displaced War God - Episode 5

A hearing accuses Kevin, a worker from the scrap yard, of illegally entering the Ark's hangar and boarding the 'Silver Scar' mech. He pleads not guilty, claiming his unauthorized attempt to synchronize with the dormant machine makes him a volunteer against a looming threat, not a criminal. Commander Elena moves for a continuance, but the judge rules the hearing will proceed. Then, the court is shocked by reports that Silver Scar has self-activated at 100% sync, a protocol last used by its missing captain. An officer declares the hearing over, branding Kevin a secret enemy asset.
