As they navigate across a cliff, Shin asks to pilot the Juggernaut but while the others think he's having fun, he shoots down some rocks and abandons them. They realize his special hearing of the Legion's 'bots has confirmed a new battalion is near. Shin confesses he's going to meet them head-on, buying time for his allies to escape.
A damaged, bleeding Shin hears his brother Rei's voice and meets him in some sort of ethereal plane. But this Shin isn't the old, rugged Undertaker that killed the bot which had his brother's mind earlier in Season 1 -- it's a younger Shin.
It stands to reason that because his friends weren't blown to bits, the same thing may happen to them. The Legion would then head back to the Republic to finish off the remaining Spearheads whom Aldrecht is caring for. But there's an interesting turn of events with Lena visiting Aldrecht.
