They just established circumstances early on in the Volume to create a rift between the two so big they would be essentially fighting over their body. Oscar was almost treating Ozpin as if he was an enemy. Pretty early to jump into that kind of thing.

Anyway, on another note, I haven't seen this week's new episode so I don't know if this already played out or maybe someone noticed it in that thread, but the scene in the opening where the hooded figure is fighting appears to take place in the Spider pub.

Note the emblem on the entryway curtain and check out the surroundings. It is pretty clear this is the same location in both shots. Given we already know the hooded figure is Cinder, this hints there is going to a battle in the pub involving Cinder and some other character.

This could mean a trap gets set for Cinder when she returns to learn more information. Probably, Neo will pay them to lure Cinder there and get revenge at what she perceives is Cinder's role in Roman's death. Should the last name not be a quirk, it could even be that Neo has a better relationship or Roman had one since Roman did have ties to the Malachites in Vale through Junior's Club.

For those talking about her survival and time gaps, I would note the Vault didn't appear that far up and she was clearly not in a good state regardless. There is some chance she needed a couple weeks to recover and plot her next move. One other thing I would note is that Cinder appeared to have created the crack in the wall, so it is not as if the woman who found her could have inadvertently discovered the Vault. Cinder created a crack and then broke through it. Plus, it is not as if every part of the inside was so thin. Someone would have to know where the Vault was and where the weak point in rock was at in order to break inside.
