Weiss' short: "I won't always be there for you, Weiss."

V5: Gets captured and hopes Winter rescues her. She ain't coming and Weiss has to save herself.

Blake's short: Ilia. Just Ilia.

V5: All about Ilia.

Yang's short: "You need hand-to-hand combat, Ruby!"

V5  "You need hand-to-hand combat, Ms. Rose."

Anything else we can pick up from the shorts that might have an effect in future episodes? Maybe Yang will try to head to Ruby after all. I mean, in the opening, when she's driving toward the camera, Ruby is right in the middle of her eye.

And I think the biggest reason Yang put on her arm in the first place is because of Ruby. When Port and Oobleck were leaving, she could hear them talking to Tai outside, so she eavesdropped.

Oobleck asked Tai if they had heard from Ruby, and Tai said no. So then, Oobleck asked him if he had thought about looking for Ruby, and Tai looked toward Yang's window and said he had other things to take care of. Yang moved away from the window, clutching her arm and looking sad. The next time we see her, she has put on the arm. In the Yang short, she said she'll always have Ruby's back, but throughout Volume 4, Yang wasn't there for Ruby. I think she realized this and felt bad and felt like she needed to get to Ruby.
