You mean Matron?

It would seem to be a reasonable explanation, although at the time, it looks like he tries to shoot and simply chokes. Although I would have liked to see a scene where Irvine addresses the assassination attempt in light of later events.

i'll tell you how it is, Irvine explains exactly. He said that he never actually killed a human and that when he had to he just couldn't pull the trigger.

[BG-57]

I know he gives that explanation, but Omecle raised a valid point about additional reasons that Irvine may have had but left unsaid at the the time.

[ragnosica]

is this theory strengthened anywhere along the game? does irvine say something that nobody knew?

thats right, when you get to the orphanage irvine says he knew everyone from the moment he met them at galbadia. But he didnt say anything because everyone else didnt even recognise eachother.

While they talk about the past they mention matron, only then does everyone even irvine realise that edea is matron, so he only didnt shoot at her straight away becuase he was nervous

The part where Zell was doing fighting moves in the hall of Balamb Garden and backflipped and landed on his head and his yarmulke flew off.
