- The conversation among Chigusa, Asashina and Toudoh makes me think that, if for any reason, Toudoh loses faith in Zero or is killed, there's no way that those 2 would stick by Lelouch's side. In fact, I think the 3 major players in the BK are Toudoh, Diethard and Ougi, because once they withdraw their support from him, I see the others following en masse.

- Well, it didn't take Suzaku long to find his high horse again after the Refrain incident. Him using his foot to push Lelouch's face into the ground was a bit much for me. And boy, Lelouch must have some super duper sibling love to plead like that and to accept that abuse. The lengths that he's willing to go to to save Nunnally, while totally incongruous with his Zero persona, are an intriguing facet of his personality. And I suppose we should expect him to do whatever he can for her; after all, she's the reason why he began this whole operation.

- Lelouch seems to have this thing about taking all of the blame upon himself. (NB his responses to Suzaku when asked about Shirley and Euphie) It's irritating, especially in this instance, because there were mitigating circumstances, and for him not to explain the situations fully can lead to people being misled by what he says. And that's why I can see Kallen asking him if he killed Shirley and him saying yes, because in his twisted mind he did, although we all know that he really didn't.

- I would have liked to see the Suzaku/Lelouch conflict come to an end in this episode, if only because I'm fed up of the angsty "We're no longer friends!" or "You betrayed me!" shtick that's been going on for so many episodes.

- Know what else has been going on for too many episodes? This Kallen captivity thing. Seriously. Either make her useful again or kill her off. Showing her for a couple of seconds each episode does not appease the fans who are used to her kicking ass.

- I would have liked to hear her response to Gino's question about joining Britannia, though.

- I don't think Schniezel gave a fuck about helping Lelouch. I think he gave a fuck about patronising him and making him feel as weak and helpless as possible. I can understand Lelouch's reaction.

- But once again, Lelouch has a plan. Conveniently. It was a good one though, although I still say nothing will top that one when he manipulated Kallen into thinking that he couldn't be Zero.

- Someone needs to ask Lelouch the logic in sending the fake sibling to rescue the real sibling. I don't think that one will end too well. But hey, maybe Rollo can grab Kallen and she can FINALLY DO SOMETHING AGAIN.

- Luciano IS a complete dick. His death cannot come quickly enough for me.

- The battle next episode should hopefully be good. I want an Excalibur for Christmas, dammit. ^^

- Yay for the Gundam 00 season 2 commercial that aired with this episode. Louise as a pilot has me all WTF. Saji with a gun has me all WTF. Could this mean that they might actually be somewhat meaningful this season, or is that too much to ask for?

- And whuddup with Allelujah being all restrained like that? And why no Lockon? -----> Sad Mell.  XD
