Episode 16

Fumitan Admoss (フミタン・アドモス Fumitan Adomosu) is the sixteenth episode of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans.

As the Workers' Union begin their demonstration against the Dort Company, Orga and his team go search for Kudelia, who has run off to get answers from Fumitan. The demonstration becomes deadly when Gjallarhorn forces intervene and Kudelia finds herself involved with the Union.

Summary
On Dort 3, while Fumitan tries to distance herself from Kudelia, she reminisces about the time they've spent together. The Dort union workers begin their protest by marching through the streets with active mobile workers. Foreseeing this demonstration becoming a problem, Gjallarhorn takes precautionary actions. Fumitan tries to leave the colony via the space port, but it's shut down by Gjallarhorn. This also prevents the Turbines and the other members of Tekkadan from entering. In the meantime, they prepare their mobile suits for battle. Ride paints the Graze Custom for Shino, and Akihiro begins tuning his Alaya Vijnana to his new Gundam Frame.

The members of Tekkadan trapped in the colonies search frantically for Kudelia while Fumitan is confronted by other agents working for Nobliss Gordon. She is given strict orders to make sure Kudelia is caught up in the union demonstration. Fumitan returns to the city just as the union workers reach the Dort company headquarters.

Kudelia sees Fumitan and tries to approach her. Before she can reach Fumitan, Kudelia is swarmed by union workers and asked to speak on behalf of the union. Kudelia tries to explain that she cannot do so, but then sudden explosions go erupt outside the Dort company building. Gjallarhorn makes it look as if the union workers fired the first shot, giving them an excuse to engage.

Nearly all the union workers are quickly massacred by Gjallarhorn Mobile Workers, leaving only Kudelia alive. Nobliss's agents use the opening and shoot at Kudelia, but Fumitan saves her by moving in the way of the bullet. After being shot, Fumitan says her last words to Kudelia and dies from her wounds. Mikazuki finds Kudelia and carries her away while she sobs and cries for Fumitan.

After hearing about the attempt on Kudelia's life, McMurdo Barriston contracts Nobliss and suggests they join forces. Other riots break out in the remaining Dort colonies while Tekkadan prepares to escape Dort 2.
