Episode letdowns (based on the V2O):

Junior and the twins really played no role in the volume's events despite their appearance in the opening.

Despite members of CRDL and Penny being with the falling students in the opening, none of them played a role in the finale Grimm spree.

The opening also implied that RWBY would be on to Cinder at least by the end of the volume. Though this was admittedly unlikely to begin with.
