Zolnir, the idea was how they would do if they were in the same position. If one of them had that epic confrontation with Cinder I believe they would have been more likely to recognize her is what I am saying.

Sooo, anyway, as to my thoughts on the episode.

1. IronWitch dun get shipped.

2. There seemed to be an implication that war between the kingdoms is a thing and that they haven't just been mired in conflict with the Grimm or the Faunus in the past, though presumably the time of peace means all is good for now.

3. NeptuneXWeiss is a ship that is far too obvious and cliché to succeed. I am against it.

4. Once more people diss Weiss for no apparent reason and she objects meekly. It is officially a thing (also noted on AfterBuzz) and has now extended beyond Team RWBY. Granted, with Jaune it is more of a "why don't you return my affections" thing.

5. Weiss is full of whimsy! Also, in a totally WeissGirlSchnee move, she is the first to confront someone about some emotional drama before it has a chance to explode in their faces. Good work. Having said that. ..

6. Did anyone else notice that Blake kind of didn't tell the team what was actually on her mind? Her whole flashback about Ozpin had nothing to do with what she told them about and it was the last thing she was worrying about. Plus, what about Adam. Blake is still keeping secrets. Speaking of which. ..

7. Is Blake's "No one knows the White Fang like I do" comment a hint at more unsavory things about the group she has not really discussed or just the usual "need a thief to catch a thief" thing?

8. Lastly, Hot for School Girl Cinder.
