My thoughts:

1) Is this the Ruby breakdown scene that we were promised? If it is then it is VERY weak. I haven't cared about Ruby for a long time though so it isn't much of a loss. As long as they don't screw up Weiss or Qrow then I am happy.

2) Blake's exposition is literally in a cafe. The lack of self-awareness is disturbing.

3) Ruby's motivations are a really cliche but I won't harp on them too much. Tropes are tools and there is a reason why common tropes are so popular.

4) Blake's arc is soooo boring. I can see each and every twist coming a mile away. Illia and Yuma and maybe someone else will try to kill the Belladonnas while Illia captures Blake.

While captured, Blake will convince Illia to her side. "You fight because you lost your parents in a mining accident. How can you blame me for fighting the WF after you kill my parents?" And then Illia will change sides and save Ghira and/or Kali. One or both might die.

5) Next episode will be about Raven's exposition, Qrow finding Huntsmen, Salem's talk with Tyrian, and/or CME moving towards the Bandit camp. Very exposition heavy episode.

6) Episode 7 will be a big fight at the Bandit camp and at the Belladonna house.
