Well, we've almost reached the end of Season 1, part 1. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that, whilst not entirely what we expected, RWBY has demonstrated good writing and a steady improvement in quality of animation that has made it worth seventeen weeks of our lives. If I had a wish, it would be that we get a better idea of just what's going on here on a larger scale than eight kids at Beacon Academy.

So, onto the subject of this thread:

Predictions for Tonight's Volume End

1) About the first half of the show will be a mix of Blake's flashbacks to her childhood and why she joined White Fang and with the girls searching for her;

2) Weiss is flip-flopping between wanting to hand Blake over to the cops and wanting her bookish friend back - some comedic lines perhaps;

3) Second half will be mostly Ruby helping Weiss to work her way through her issues as they track down Blake;

4) Sun explains his real reason for being in Vale; as he does so, either he reveals to Blake or we find out by way of a cut to Detectives Bernie and Joel that there are a few valid arrest warrants on him for petty roguery (petty theft, vandalism and the like);

5) The other girls arrive; Sun challenges Blake to choose between "your blood or those humans" (which kind of surprises the girls - they were just looking for Blake, not Sun);

6) Blake will be in a ready position, with her hand on Gambol Shroud's hilt. She looks back and forward between her team and Sun a few times before smiling in a profoundly weird way.

Fade to black

We hear her draw her weapon.
