Ep 2. Turn 02 - Plan for Independent Japan

Lelouch, disguised as a student at Ashford Academy, meets with the representatives of the Black Knights and presents his plan for creating an independent Japan with the help of the organization. After some initial hesitation and suspicion, the Black Knights agree to assist him in his endeavors.

Meanwhile, Suzaku, now a Knight of the Round, is tasked with hunting down the rogue Knightmare pilot who had caused chaos during the previous episode's battle. Using his advanced Knightmare frame, the Lancelot, Suzaku is able to successfully locate and apprehend the culprit, much to the delight of the Britannian army.

Back at Ashford Academy, tensions rise as Lelouch struggles to maintain his double life. With the Black Knights now officially on board with his plan for independence, he must navigate the delicate balance between his school life and his revolutionary activities.

As the episode progresses, it becomes clear that Lelouch's plan for independence is not without its challenges. The Britannian army, led by Prince Schneizel, begins to mobilize against the Black Knights, prompting Lelouch to reassess his strategy.

Throughout it all, Lelouch's brilliant tactical mind is on full display as he works tirelessly to outmaneuver his enemies and secure Japan's independence. He must rely on his network of allies, including his trusted right-hand woman, Kallen, and the intelligence officer Rakshata, to stay one step ahead of the Britannian forces.

As the episode builds to a climactic finish, Lelouch must make some difficult decisions in order to protect Japan and secure his position as its future leader. With the odds stacked against him and his enemies closing in, the fate of Japan rests squarely on his shoulders.
