Maybe a slightly spooky scene reflecting v4e02 with her practicing moves to a recording of Pyrrha. Rooster Teeth's description of the character short is "You know that Ruby is unstoppable with her scythe, but Yang knows the true power of hand-to-hand combat. In the midst of a weapon-free training session, can Yang convince her sister of the importance of fighting without a weapon?"

Considering that Ruby still doesn't know hand-to-hand and hasn't made any visible efforts to learn, I'd say that Yang failed to convince her. I kinda think the whole "I've always got your back, sis" line is what ruined convincing her. It's like "Oh, you've always got my back? I guess I don't need to learn hand-to-hand, since you'll do it for me, then. Thanks!"
