This is one of the more dramatic scenes in Neon Genesis Evangelion. In this scene, we learn that the angels are indeed intelligent creatures and how truly strong Rei Ayanami is when she gives up her life to save Shinji. Unfortunately, we also learn that Asuka is no longer able to control her Eva.

 

Misato: Rei, let's hold back and study it for a bit.

Rei: No, it's coming.

Misato: Rei! Effasive action!

Hyuga: She can't! There's not enough time!

Shigeru: Contamination! The targets' affecting Unit 00!

Misato: What's the status of Unit 00's A.T. Field?

Ritsuko: This isn't good, more than 5% has already undergone bio-fusion.

Maya: Her field is up, but it's not stopping the enemy's energy probe!

Ritsuko: Is the Angel trying to establish first level contact with Unit 00? It must be!

Maya: We've got bio-contamination invading Unit 00!

Misato: Unit 02 roll out! Take some of that heat off of Rei!

 Maya: Target's invasion of Unit 00 continuing!

Misato: Asuka! Advance 300 meters and spread your A.T. Field to maximum. Center your palette-gun in the target's back-section. Eva Unit 02, move out!... What're you doing Asuka?! Move out now! What's wrong with her?

 

 Maya: She can't think! Her synch-ratio is under 10%!

Asuka: It just won't move. It won't move!

 

 Misato: She's just a target sitting out there! Get her back! Do it now!

Rei: (Wincing in pain) Who is this?

Armisael: You?

Rei: Myself? In an Eva? No, I sense somebody other than myself. Who are you? Are you one of the beings that we call the Angels?

Armisael: Did you want to become one with me?

Rei: No, I am me, not you.

Armisael: But you shall, it's too late. I will share a part of my mind with you. Let me share with you these emotions. This is pain. Do you feel this pain?

Rei: This pain? No, this is different, loneliness. Yes, loneliness.

Armisael: Loneliness? I do not understand.

Rei: You don't want to be by yourself, correct? We are many but you are alone. You hate it, don't you? That's called loneliness.

Armisael: That is what your mind is. It is what fills your soul. You are that sorrow.

Rei: Is this a tear? Am I the one that's crying?

Misato: Rei!!

Gendo: I want Evangelion Unit 01 taken out of chryo-stasis. Launch it immediately.

Misato: W-What?!

Gendo: I said, LAUNCH IT!

Misato: Yes, sir.

Asuka: Why for her? Am I so worthless you couldn't do this for me?

Misato: Spread your A.T. Field to full! Get Rei out of there now!

Shinji: Right!

Rei: Ikari? Is my mind and soul to become one with Ikari? You will not!

Maya: Her A.T. Fields' been reversed! She's got bio-contamination everywhere!

Ritsuko: She's trying to contain the Angel!

Misato: Rei, Abandon Unit 00! Get out of there!

Rei: I will not! If I abandon Unit 00, the A.T. Field will cease to be. I will not let it!

Misato: Rei, don't do it...

Maya: Her cores' collapsing, it's past critical.

BOOM!!...

Shigeru: The targets'... disappeared...

Misato: This operation is over. Downgrade alert status to condition yellow.

Hyuga: Roger, shifting alert status to condition yellow.

Misato: What's the status of Unit 00?

Maya: I don't think... the entry plug... ejected...

Misato: Send out a rescue team.

Ritsuko: If there's anything left to rescue...
