** Which informs her ''very'' OOCIsSeriousBusiness scowl at the end of Durandal's [[NewEraSpeech Destiny Plan speech]]. She's ''[[TranquilFury absolutely pissed'' that ''this'' is what Meer was used and ultimately lost her life for.
* It's only a ClipShow, but Episode 29 of ''Seed Destiny'', "Fate". Durandal and Rau Le Creuset's ghost arguing over the human experience while we flashback over every, single one of Seed's most depressing deaths is bad enough, but it's only made worse because [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds Le Creuset]] is narrating for most of it, and we're treated to the flashbacks from the end of Durandal and Captain Gladys' relationship. The episode is absolutely emotionally draining to watch, as it shows you just how far gone Le Creuset was, and actually leaves you rooting for the [[WellIntentionedExtremist Chairman]], while giving you a lot of insight into how he got to be that way. The incredibly sad music does ''not'' help, nor does Durandal's obvious depression.

** The worst part is what started the chain of events leading to Stella's death. In episode 25 she overhears Neo being informed of the Londonia Extended lab being compromised. When Stella asks what the lab is, Sting says it was their home before they were deployed. This causes Auel to flashback to a kind-hearted nurse that he saw as his mother. But since "mother" is his TriggerPhrase, Auel breaks down worrying that "mother could die", unknowingly triggering Stella into a rampage to "protect mother." Just an innocent question.

** ATragedyOfImpulsiveness, though a MeaningfulName, does not begin to cover the following circumstances. Defeating her when she sorties in the Gaia, Shinn impulsively brings her to the ''Minerva's'' med bay, getting him in very big trouble with Talia. And ''then'', when he finds out she could be taken to the PLANTs to be a guinea pig, in one of his many dark parallels to Kira, he gets into bigger trouble by taking her from the ship to return her to her original side, though in this case, he and Rey assault some officers to do so. And when he does meet with Neo, he simply pleads to Neo to promise to not use her in battle again, without even thinking that Neo could just be metaphorically crossing his fingers behind his back. He's seen how Blue Cosmos operates, but doesn't think that they wouldn't just use her again. Shinn wanted to save her life, and technically, he might have had he done nothing, but in doing so, he ultimately sends her to her doom.
** Overall, there was no way Stella was going to have a decent fate. She would be killed on the Destroy or become a guinea pig for the PLANTs to study the Extended. The girl's fate was fucked either way.

* Cagalli herself throughout most of the show proves to be a kid who is in way over head in terms of being Uzumi's heir, and it's very clear from the start that she has far less power and authority, and the conviction and personality expected of such. She's still a firebrand, but without her father, or even any of his allies who could properly support her in his stead, and her friends needing to live their peaceful lives away from politics, it becomes clear how out of her depth she is. And throughout the first arc, she's just getting broken down bit by bit, from Shinn's own justified-and-yet-IrrationalHatred of her, her family, and ORB, to the Seiran's easy maneuvering around her, and Yuna's emotional manipulation, and even Athrun's abandonment of her to deal with his own issues. And the fact that the only way to save her from being the Seirans' trophy puppet was for the Archangel crew to drag her away from her country, now handed to Blue Cosmos on a silver platter, little wonder her spirit is just as broken completely. The worst part is, both Shinn and the Seirans are right about her, so as much as we want to be angry with especially the latter, they're right that her ideals or her father's aren't going to do any good at the moment, especially when she herself doesn't have the steel to put her critics in place. While many aren't fond of this {{Chikification}} of her, the thing is that this was always there even in the last series. She just had a massive safety net in the form of her father. But now, without said net, why wouldn't she break now that she was left on her own?

* The final confrontation. Rey is moved by Kira's ideals that every individual can improve and betrays Durandal who has been following since an early age. Although Durandal is still happy since Talia is besides him, Rey breaks out crying. As the ship where the three is falls and Talia hugs Rey who in his last moment calls Talia "mother."

** In episode 10, after surviving the Junius Seven drop (which ''still'' destroyed hundreds of cities as ''fragments''), he sadly looks on the Alliance's failed attempt to nuke the PLANTs, once more, as he probably remembers Rau's words (or more specifically, the face we viewers see when he says them) in the final battle:
