* {{Foreshadowing}}: Gargoyle nuking Tartessos once he has no further use for it -- and with it, ''Blue Noah'', one of the sacred Ark-Ships that brought the Atlanteans to this world. For all his talk about restoring the Atlantean legacy, this foreshadows that Gargoyle's actions will ultimately and ironically bring it all crashing down forever instead.

* SpoilerOpening: The Opening is updated to show Nemo, his crew, and the ''N-Nautilus'' rather than the original shot of just Nemo and the old ''Nautilus''. Unfortunately, this also spoils their survival and return in this episode.

Justified, as the destruction of the Tower of Babel wrecked the city and ''Blue Noah'', plus it's a reminder of how Gargoyle's plans were set back a decade thanks to Nemo.

** Similarly, when they're falling down one of ''Red Noah'''s shafts and the brakes fail, Grandis orders Sanson to just put the damm Tank in reverse. Given their current velocity, Sanson rightfully counters that the ensuing pressure would only cause the gears to blow. The velocity also prevents the tank's cylinders (which Jean suggests deploying as an alternative and which might've worked under different circumstances) from halting their descent.

However, it's PragmaticEvil (as her Blue Water is still under her control at this point) and because of the propaganda advantages having the lost Princess of Atlantis back in the fold will bring.

Gargoyle's Neo Atlantean battleships have trailed the companions to Tartessos. Nadia surrenders herself and the Blue Water to Gargoyle… but not before making the latter promise to spare her friends.

Gargoyle goes back on his word anyway and orders his battleships to attack the companions. Jean and the others try to flee in the ''Gratan'' until they find themselves falling inexorably into a bottomless shaft. Just then, a mysterious force field snags the tank in mid-air and lands them safely on the ground.

Their rescuer turns out to be none other than Electra, who informs them that Captain Nemo is still alive and well. She takes the companions aboard ''New Nautilus'', a super-charged massive battleship with powerful electromagnetic turrets. However, the confrontation between Nemo and Gargoyle does not go well, and results with the captain reluctantly surrendering his own Blue Water to his enemy.

Gargoyle then destroys Tartessos with a powerful blast and takes Nadia into the skies.
