When I seen the forest I was expecting more from Blake. I knew it was a Jaune chapter but I expected at least some hint of something from her. But no, barely seen and not even one line of dialogue. At least we get to see Cardin stung by Rapier wasps, wait, no, that didn't happen either. Two good things though. They're wrapping up the Jaune arc (yes, pun intended), even if we all seen the solution comming, and Ruby is back.

Hopefully we get to see more Blake in the next episode or two. Lots of people seem to think Adam will appear, but I don't think so. An idea I had though was they the group gets attacked by grimm. While fighting their way through in an attempt to escape (these grimm must be stronger if Glynda was sent to accompany a group that large) Blake leads everyone to the train tracks from the black trailer as the way out. Cardin tells Glynda about Jaune's secret, she says they will deal with it once at beacon. They work their way down the train tracks while fighting weaker grimm. When they fight a stronger one Ruby and Jaune come up with a plan to beat it that proves Jaune deserves to be in beacon. They all jump onto a passing train (because convenience) and get back to beacon.

The small inserts of Blake's past allow for it to transition to her soon and the fight scene allows for both RWBY and JNPR to work together. It also wraps up Jaune's plot by proving him to Glynda (not that it matters, Ozpin knew all along). Also, possible PyrrhaxJaune moments. This may or may not include CRDL getting their asses handed to them by the grimm. Needless to say, this is a long episode, probably like episode 8.
