Solaris XD wrote: I liked this episode a lot but a few things irk me.

1) Neo's big fuck off green eyes were a dead giveaway. I wish they were a bit more subtle so the twist would be more shocking but whatever, it was still pretty good.

2) I still have no idea why Ruby hid Jinn's infodump from Ironwood for so long. There was literally no sign beforehand not to trust him and nothing that happened this episode seemed like a big enough turning point for her to suddenly be like "yeah okay, I'll tell him now."

3) Ironwood's reaction seems a bit underwhelming. I won't be too annoyed by this for now, because maybe he's Internalising it for now since Mantle is the priority for the moment, but still.

Otherwise, great episode and I'm keen to see where the climax goes.

1.) Yeah, when we cut to that “servant”, her smirk was a dead giveaway. Sorry CRWBY, but any attempt at subtlety failed miserably.

2.)Honestly, I’d brief him on that almost straight out of the gate.

3.) He’s a General. He recognizes that there are more pressing concerns than reverting to the same angst the others fell prey to. Same attitude Ruby showed when she cut Yang off back on the Argus train saying “Hey! Civvies in danger! Feel down later!”. He also had Oscar to help him out.
