Welp, seems me staying cautious about Ironwood paid off and oooh boy... this honestly makes me miss Oz even more, because I don't think he'd be as desperate to leave half his kingdom to die just to save what he can. Now that makes Watts technically the moral winner of their fight. After all, Watts did hope for James to sacrifice everything.

Now, the "traitor within the Ace-Ops" theory isn't all that wrong here. We have 4 remaining loyal to Atlas/Ironwood and 1 up in the air, meaning Clover could become a "turncoat" in Ironwood's eyes if Clover decides the kingdom is bigger that just Atlas.

The fights however were a bit underwhelming with all the build-up we had, but Salem's right: They set the stage for her.

Also, can we all admire how she needed 1 line to break Ruby in half? That was sublime imo.
