We've been over this.

Neo and Cinder haven't met yet in this point in time.

Cinder's plotline takes place over 2 weeks after they left on the train.

After the train crashed, they spent one day at the farm, one day before going to see Cordovin, one day seeing her and looking for Oscar, and the current day. So they are on Day 18. Cinder and Neo are on Day 31.

Cinder and Neo aren't coming. Unless Miles and Kerry pull some timeskip bullshit like "Oh, but RWBYQOM traveled for more than just one day before they found the farm."

Though, from this episode, as well as Volume 5, it seems they've gotten better at establishing at what times certain things take place.

It's just that it'll feel kinda weird that they did this whole setup with Cinder and Neo now when we're gonna have to wait until sometime in Volume 7 for the payoff. I'm aware they may be trying to streamline Volume 7, but the way they've kinda just dropped the two-weeks-into-the-future Cinder and Neo stuff into this volume is, so far, coming off as less than smooth.
