Alternatively this is the same as the last two volumes where the opening was pretty cool and dramatic and "getting dark"-

- and then none of what was shown in the opening actually occurs, and Team RWBY and co. have a jolly fun time being teenagers and screwing around without actually getting anywhere while the villains vaguely do supposedly important stuff offscreen. Oh, and the Vytal Festival finally happens..

That's my hypothesis. :/ S2 was forgivable on that note as they decided after they released it to make the season filler... so I wouldn't call it a theme yet based on only one and a freak accident.... however I would take this moment to remind everyone I called Pyrrha having an "accident" at some point soon quite a long time ago...
