Let me sum up just how this episode left me feeling:



I mean, where even to ''begin? ''No sense wasting time, though. Let's dive right in.


 * First of all,  SO MUCH BUMBLEBEE TEASE . Honestly, I wouldn't even be surprised if this became canon in the same way John and Sherlock from Sherlock did; in that they have a romantic, though non-sexual relationship. Loved the laser pointer bit; It seems no cat joke is off-limits when it comes to Blake.


 * Secondly, my worst fears have come true, and Pyrrha has actually given Jaune advice for how to go after Weiss. And it seems her crush on him is fairly obvious to everyone except him, unless Nora was obliviously referring to someone else. I look forward to see how all this tension gets resolved, tho. Hopefully, next episode. Teeth are already gritted.


 * Speaking of which, I don't exactly think we need an earthbender to figure out that Nora and Ren aren't "together-together", at least not from Nora's perspective. Doubt it'll go anywhere anytime soon, but made for good lulz.


 * And, finally. Those elusive genealogy questions that have plagued us since the first episode and even earlier, to the Red Trailer, have finally been answered. In sequence:

1. Yang and Ruby are half-sisters via different mothers.

2. Qrow was on the same team with said mothers as well as Ruby and Yang's father.

3. And of course, the ever-frustrating question: We now finally know that Summer Rose is Ruby's late mother. Well, late in the sense that both she and Yang's mom disappeared and haven't been seen since. Does that mean they're truly dead? Time will tell. Or not.


 * Honestly, Mercury and Emerald's arrival at the dance hardly registered with me. It was just a scant reminder of "Oh yeah, there's a plot here we need to worry about too." They're most definitely up to something, though. Still gritting teeth for next week.
