Shinn was pretty freaked out in this episode. In addition to Freedom, Athrun also comes...he must be like "OMFG! Why does everyone I kill come back to life! DO I really suck that bad? Does this mean Meyrin is alive too?" In his viewpoint things are totally crazy right now.
And LOL@Cagalli's announcement. Meer magically takes over. Then Lacus teleports behind Cagalli from the AA and restores the channel at the same time. BIG WTF.
