And I guess he and Nora are official now.

What's with the endless monologue for the rest of the episode instead of going ahead and showing tht a day later they go talk to Lionheart? Why have a long moe letter to her dad to end the season instead of mystery and suspense and intrigue? Why did Tai stay home? Why not go help Beacon rebuild or travel with Yang? Is he retired? Too old? What makes him think his place is in the kitchen worrying if everyone's okay? They never weren't :)

It's better pacing to have the letter instead. And it did provide mystery and suspense. Lionheart is most likely dead (or worse, consorting with Salem), and Cinder is unrepentent, most likely ready to be deployed the second Ruby is out of the picture in Salem's eyes.
