FADE IN TO KAMINA'S HOPE - EXT. - DAY

A shining city, with futuristic skyscrapers. A low flying face-shaped GUNMAN mecha slowly drifts by, leaving a contrail in it's wake.

KAMINA'S HOPE CITY HALL - EXT. - DAY

SIMON, 26, who really does look like Captian Harlock in that cloak and with those shades, addresses a massive crowd of fans and citizens at a podium as an approving, should totally be played by Vin Deisel LORD GENOME looks on. A beautiful wisp of a woman, NIA, smiles at him from behind the podium. Simon still wears his MASTER BIT PENDANT.

SIMON: I wanted to thank you all. Each and every citzen of Kamina's Hope... it is you we have to thank for ten years of peace and prosperity!

And the crowd goes nuts. Genome chuckles.

SIMON'S PLACE - INT. - NIGHT

Simon and Nia share a quiet moment together.

FX - SCREEN FLICKER with a STATICKY RASP

Nia grits her teeth, closes her eyes and places the tips of her fingers on her temple.

Simon looks on with growing concern.

SIMON: Nia... you okay?

NIA: Just a headache...

NIA'S PLACE - INT. - NIGHT.

Nia looks into the bathroom mirror, drenched in cold sweat.

FX - SCREEN FLICKER with a STATICKY RASP

For a second, we see Nia's face reflected in the mirror with a twisted grin and ominous glowing red eyes, then...

FX - SCREEN FLICKER with a STATICKY RASP

Nia looks at the perfectly normal reflection, utterly horrified.

NIA: ...Oh no... No.

NIA'S BEDROOM - INT. - NIGHT

Nia, frantic, races for her diary. She fumbles for a pen. Writes two words, before...

FX - SCREEN FLICKER with a STATICKY RASP

She arches her back in a silent scream, eyelids clenched down...

FX - SCREEN FLICKER with a STATICKY RASP

...then grins, with teeth. She opens her GLOWING RED EYES.

FADE TO KAMINA'S HOPE - EXT. - NIGHT

BGM: Liberate Me

A panicking crowd pushes past Simon, who looks up in mounting horror at the floating figure of Nia, eyes still faintly glowing, dressed in a jumpsuit that flickers with neon lines cutting through circles.

NIA: Attention, people of Earth.

SIMON: (Whispers) ...Nia... what's happening to you, Nia?

NIA: In 72 hours, the moon will be loosed from it's firmament. When it hurtles down to your world...

SIMON: Oh no. Nonononono...

NIA: EVERYTHING on your world capable of generating Spiral Energy will be eradicated... down to the lowest bacterium.

FLASH IN TO GURREN'S COCKPIT - INT. - NIGHT.

VIRAL snarls with a mouth full of wicked sharks teeth. His eyes slit like a cat.

VIRAL: Wanna bet, bitch?

CITY HALL - INT. - DAY.
A tense meeting between Simon, Genome, Viral and the rest of the Magnificent Gurren Squadron.

GENOME: What I feared has come to pass, then. She has become the Emmisary.

SIMON: What is the Emmisary?

ANTI-SPIRAL FLEET - EXT. - SPACE

Mecha orbit around the moon, directed by the glowing figure of Nia.

GENOME: (V.O.) Her people foresaw the end of the universe - a Big Crunch caused by overuse of Spiral Energy.

PAN TO earth, which is launching an intercept fleet, led by I Can't Beleive It's Not The Yamato and an army of GunMen?.

GENOME: (V.O.) And so the Anti-Spirals forsook evolution... and dedicated themselves to eradicating any race that felt the pulse of the Spiral Heart.

Nia's face twists into a horrible grin.

NIA: Devolve or _die._

Her hand drops and the Anti-Spiral blast past her.

LAUNCH PAD - EXT.

A refurbished Great Gurren-Lagann is prepped for take-off. Simon tries to hold back tears as he walks up.

Viral stops him.

SIMON: Viral, what...?

VIRAL: I found this in _her_ room. Read it.

Simon does. His eyes go wide.

SIMON: "Liberate Me."

Simon smiles.

BGM: Fight The Power - "See the invisible, do the impossible. Rah! Rah! FIGHT THE POWER!"

SIMON: We can _save_ her!

ANNOUNCER: The long awaited sequel to Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: Smashing Through Heaven's Door, has at last arrived.

BATTLESHIP BRIDGE - INT. - SPACE

The rather ugly CAPTIAN ATTENBOROUGH grins at the sight of Great Gurren-Lagann flying alongside him.

ATTENBOROUGH: Good to have you on our wing, Simon.

SIMON: Funny, Attenborough, I thought you were on ours.

Attenborough smiles.

GREAT GURREN-LAGANN'S BRIDGE - INT. - SPACE
Simon, Viral, the mole-like BOOTA, and the very buxom, underdressed and hot-tempered YOKO man thier stations.

SIMON: ARC GURREN-LAGANN! ASSEMBLE!

GREAT GURREN-LAGANN - EXT. - SPACE
A trademark DRILL bores through the bottom of Attenborough's ship, fixing it into place on top of Lagann's head.

ARC GURREN-LAGANN'S BRIDGE - INT. - SPACE.

SIMON: You ready for this, Captian?

ATTENBOROUGH: Heh. It's so _stimulating_ being your hat.

The entire bridge crew of the Great Gurren-Lagann stares at him.

ATTENBOROUGH: ...What?

BGM: Color Of The Sky

LUNAR ORBIT - EXT. - SPACE

Arc Gurren-Lagann leads the charge against a swarm of Anti-Spiral mechs and ships.

ANNNOUNCER: ...which packs a trilogy worth of badass into two movies.

BGM: (Continues) "Can you hear my faltering voice? I thought I'd lost it so long ago..."

BATTLESHIP BRIDGE - INT. - SPACE

GUNMAN PILOT: Captian, we've got FOUR full wings of Faceless-Class heading right for you!

BGM: (Contd.) "I'd buried it so deep underground, right up until now!"

ATTENBOROUGH: If this problem can't be solved by firepower, we aren't using enough! FIRE ALL LASERS!

ARC GURREN-LAGANN - EXT. - SPACE

They do. The pyrotechnics are very impressive.

BGM: "What you told me then! Gave me all the strength..."

ANTI-SPIRAL THRONE - INT. - NIGHT?

Simon pleads with Nia.

SIMON: I know there's still some of you left in there, Nia!

BGM: "I needed to be worthy to gaze on the endless sky-ay-ay!"

The Emmisary actually seems to falter, then...

NIA: There i..is no Nia. There is only the Emmiss... Emmiss...save muh... ...EMMISARY!

LUNAR ORBIT

The anti-spirals are losing, badly, and an increasingly flustered Emissary snarls:

BGM: "The answer I was looking for is here!"

NIA: I threaten your people with genocide, and you do not falter? Do you even know fear!?

BGM: "Right here!"

RAPIDLY CUT BETWEEN CLOSE-UPS OF THE CREW, ENDING WITH SIMON:

ARC GURREN-LAGANN CREW: WHO THE -HELL- DO YOU THINK WE ARE!?

CUT TO TITLE: TENGEN TOPPA GURREN LAGANN - LIBERATE ME FROM HELL

ARC GURREN-LAGANN BRIDGE - INT. - SPACE:

An enemy explodes on the front viewscreen.

Beat.

VIRAL: ...Simon?

SIMON: ...Yeah?

VIRAL: "...How Dare You Hurt My One True Love Punch?"

SIMON: ...So?

YOKO: ...that just takes the cake.

VIRAL: One made _entirely_ out of ham.
