Recap / Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood E 38 Conflict At Baschool

• Forgiveness: Explored. When Winry ultimately decides to heal Scar's wounds, he voices that it's rather indulgent of her to condone that he murdered her parents. To this, she crossly responds that on the contrary, she's not overlooking that he's the man who killed her parents. She's only healing him because it's the right thing to do. This teaches Scar that forgiveness and tolerating evil aren't inclusive.
• Morality Chain Beyond the Grave: Winry didn't have to tend to the wounds of the man who killed her parents. As far as she was concerned, she could've let him bleed to death. Instead, she goes to tend to his wounds, because it's what her parents would've done.
• Symbolism: Scar doesn't ever contemplate his redemption arc until after Winry (if a bit begrudgingly) heals his injuries without further prompting. It's been said that forgiveness is an act of healing. This marks the instant Winry literally and figuratively healed Scar.
