I would rather just have RT say publicly, 'LOL, NOPE!,' when asked about having gay couples than playing the coward's role of trying to please everyone with BS that no side likes. Yeah I thought they handled this well. This was the second episode to confirm something I predicted in a novel-length fanfic I wrote between seasons. First was that Yang could projectile-shoot her arm and now that Ilia likes/liked Blake.

It was great that they finally wrote in that Blake and Adam were romantic. That was something in the Volume 3 Commentary but now it's in the show and weaved well with Ilia's feelings.
