Attack on Titan Episode 67: Assassin`s Bullet

The Armored Titan attacks the Attack Titan, but the Attack Titan repels it, destroying its jaw with a hardened fist. The Armored Titan then pulls away the Jaw Titan, preventing the Attack Titan from eating it. Eren emerges from his Titan's body, stating they are done. Mikasa tells Eren they should go home, and they leave using vertical maneuvering equipment as the Armored Titan attempts to stand.

The Scout Regiment retreats to their airship. Jean orders soldiers grappling to the airship to protect it from below. Seeing her enemies leaving, Gabi takes a rifle and runs out of a building, declaring she will kill Eren.

Eren and Mikasa climb onto the airship. Armin helps Eren aboard. Levi kicks Eren, insulting his appearance, then has him restrained. Eren offers no resistance, saying he explained everything in his letters. Levi is unsympathetic, noting everything happened as Eren wanted.

Outside, Jean orders the defending soldiers to board, as the Marleyans have nothing strong enough to take down an airship. Lobov, a former Garrison commander, tells Jean to go ahead and stays to defend the rear. Conny and Sasha help Jean aboard and inform him of six fatalities among the Scouts. Floch tells them to compare this to the damage dealt to Marley and leads a cheer for their soldiers, proclaiming the New Eldian Empire's first victory. Jean wonders how long they will fight and how many more will die. Conny comforts him, telling Jean and Sasha they are special to him and he is grateful they survived.

On the ground, Gabi rushes after the airship, with Falco chasing her, trying to make her stop. After catching up, Gabi emotionally recalls the deaths of Udo, Zofia, and two gate guards. She explains that people would spit on her for being an Eldian, and she strove to improve herself to show the world Eldians are not bad. Gabi cannot forgive those who trampled her home and rejects Falco's idea that the enemy is retaliating for a similar invasion of their land by Marleyan Warriors. She calls them devils threatening world peace. Falco remembers Eren's words to Reiner, that they are the same, as Gabi resumes chasing the airship.

As Lima Squad enters the airship, Lobov calls out that the airship is free to ascend. He spots Gabi running below but hesitates to shoot when he sees she is a child. Gabi fires her rifle, killing him with a shot to the head. Lobov's corpse drops to the ground, but the wire from his omni-directional mobility gear remains attached to the airship. Testing the gear's trigger, Gabi asks Falco to tell her family she fought until the end and prepares to board the airship. Colt arrives and rushes towards them, causing Gabi to hurry and activate the trigger. Falco remembers Reiner telling him he would have to save Gabi and grabs onto her as the wire reels them up.

Lobov's body hits the airship with a thump. Jean calls for the celebrating Scouts to quiet down. Gabi rolls inside the cabin and fires into the group of soldiers. The bullet strikes Sasha's torso, and she falls limply, to the horror of Jean and Conny. Jean and Gabi aim at each other, but Falco tackles Gabi, causing her bullet to go astray and Jean to miss. An angry group of soldiers restrains the two children as Jean and Conny rush to Sasha's side. Bleeding and in shock, Sasha makes a delirious comment about eating soon, ending on "meat." Floch explains to Jean that the children got onto the ship using Lobov's gear and says he will toss them out. Jean rhetorically asks if that would stop the killing.

Meanwhile, Commander Magath is informed by Koslow that Gabi and Falco have run away and not returned. Magath addresses Pieck, who says she remembers the soldier who trapped her and Porco. She recalls meeting the bearded soldier three years ago as a woman serving in the first scout fleet to Paradis Island that went missing since Reiner returned. The soldier was a devout follower of Zeke.

Inside the airship, Levi has Yelena take off her fake beard. In the next room, Gabi screams at the Scouts, cursing the "devils" and declaring they have not lost yet, stating Zeke's will would be carried on by their comrades. Jean brings the two children to the room where Zeke sits by Eren, regenerating his limbs.

Surprised, Zeke asks Gabi and Falco what they are doing on the ship. Falco questions Zeke's presence, while Gabi asks why he let himself be captured. Jean explains that the children killed Lobov to get on board and Gabi shot Sasha. He does not expect Sasha to survive, causing Mikasa and Armin to rush out to see her. Hange leaves the piloting to Onyankopon and enters the room, asking Zeke if all has gone according to plan. To the shock of the children, Zeke answers that it mostly has, barring a few miscalculations, specifically the children themselves.

Jean angrily asks Yelena about trapping the Jaw and Cart Titans, whose escape complicated their mission, and she takes responsibility. Levi explains it led to the Beast Titan throwing more stones than planned and insincerely flatters Zeke for his dramatic improvisation. Zeke jokes back that Levi must have wanted to kill him, to which Levi replies with a vague threat.

Eren believes that killing Marley's military leaders and destroying their port and naval fleet will have bought them time. However, Hange disagrees, finding it likely that the world will unite in a global offensive against Paradis Island. Hange expresses disappointment in Eren. Despite knowing that the Scouts must sacrifice lives every time he is caught by their enemies, Eren put himself in a position where the Scouts had no choice but to come to his aid. Zeke argues that now they have both the Founding Titan and a Titan of royal blood, which will make all the sacrifices worthwhile by granting freedom for Eldia.

At this time, Conny comes through the door to break the news of Sasha's death. While Mikasa and Armin cry over her body, Eren asks Conny about Sasha's final words. Being told "meat," Eren lets out a tense, unhinged chuckle and recalls Sasha's wish to recover the lands lost with the fall of Wall Maria so they could raise more livestock. Jean blames Eren for Sasha's death, saying she died because Eren had dragged the Scouts into battle.
