We know Cinder has hacked into a lot of things at this point such as the stadium, Ironwood's tablet, and Penny. At this point, Cinder has all the access she needs to create one hell of a false flag attack. So imagine that in the middle of Penny's fight or after it, Cinder makes Penny go rogue. Right now, Cinder has the ability to also turn off the forcefield protecting the people in the stands. It is also within her ability to use her access to make it look like it was a direct command from General Ironwood and make it look like Atlas hacked into the stadium to turn off the forcefield. Hell, if he has put his tablet on any warships, she may even be able to control them. Cinder is currently in a position where she can orchestrate some massive "attack" by Atlas that slaughters a bunch of innocent people.

Just as a note, while I didn't think much of the laughing about Valentine's Day,that would have a level of significance in itself. Holy fuck...

On another note, I wonder if Penny's comment about staying has anything to do with the finale. Would she have to hide in Vale? Would she be forced to leave? Does the descision to stay have to do with Ruby (crack ship but, aside from Weiss, she's probably the one she has the most chemistry with)?
