Thoughts: Probably had a little more fan service than usual (and for Darkshaunz here are your screenshots =P), but this episode also show a far bit of plot as well. I would say this week’s installment was fair mix of developments and action, although not as awesome as last week with the insert song – Forest, but it’s still pretty good. What didn’t seem to make sense was why did Hayward and her henchmen let Nadie and Ellis escape AFTER having a nice bath at the hot spring?

Rosenberg got fired, I appears that he’s been running this project in secret. The fact that he stepped down without a fight surely means he’s up to something sneaky, or perhaps a back up plan. He did declare his victory when he was playing that chess game with this woman, which seem to be quite close to him. Whether he is referring to the chess game or the matter involving Ellis is another matter, but I am sure he won’t stop just like that.

Ricardo isn’t officially involved in this any more, since his employer (Rosenberg) got put on vacation, but he does appear in the preview. Why is he taking care of Lilio is still unknown, but their relationship is somewhat similar to Nadie’s and Ellis’. So I suspect he will be influencing with Ellis’ journey quite alot.

L.A, the orgasm witch/wizard guy. His love for Ellis has obviously driven him crazy, he is so skillful yet he let Nadie and Ellis escape knowing there are organizations chasing after them. As he claimed 2 episodes back, although he cannot control the elements like Ellis can, he is still far superior than any human, however I think the fact he is still alive is thanks to Nadie’s crappy aim, he was on the floor with a bike on top of him and Nadie still manages to miss.

Despite the lack of skill with her gun, Nadie has grown to treasure Ellis not as a job but as a person, which is very “aww”. She rejected the payment and in fact she broke her contract in order to protect Ellis. Now that Ellis and Nadie doesn’t have any more secrets to keep from each other and Nadie doesn’t have to follow orders, I think their relationship will tighten even more. Next episode we see her selling Amigo Tacossu again, along with Ellis, even L.A the orgasmic boy can’t help but to stop by for one.

Summary (short): Nadie and Ellis visit a hot spring, there they meet Ricardo and Lilio. Rosenberg gets fired, while Miss Hayward and her henchmen decides to end the contract with Nadie. Nadie refuses, when suddenly there was an explosion back at the shot spring. Nadie hijacks Miss Hayward’s bike and heads for the spring. It was L.A, he came to see Ellis again. Nadie arrives, together with Ricardo they fought L.A. For some reason L.A decides to leave. Ricardo and Lilio bid their good bye, they probably won’t be meeting again since Ricardo’s employer is no longer in power. Ellis and Nadie confesses their secrets to each other, all is well as they travel along the road again.
