Herc does his best to project his faith in Gipsy before he goes down with Mako, but he's not sure if she got it.
Regardless, he can't think of that now.
Now he spends all his energy trying to convince Mako to let go of her memories, to surface, to realize reality is different for her now that she's not longer a terrified child. But it doesn't work. Nothing works, and eventually Hercules gives up. Wrenching himself out of Mako's head, he starts the shut-down sequence from inside.
I gotta go, Gipsy. I'm sorry.
And then he's loose from his moorings and rushing over to physically yank Mako out of her conn-pod. The instant she's unplugged she collapses into his arms and the cannon starts to power down.
"Mako! Mako, are you okay?" He has to fumble her helmet off so he can pat her cheeks, relieved when he sees her eyelids fluttering as she wakes up.
