* Salem is hunting down the Maidens one by one, and the person assigned to do it is a man who can barely control outbursts of unhinged laughter. He revels in his mission, showing utter glee at being ordered to find the Spring Maiden. However, when told to delay that and instead hunt down the sixteen year old girl who accidentally injured Cinder, Tyrian can barely contain his excitement. Although momentarily dampened by the instruction to bring Ruby back alive, he immediately cheers up by tormenting Cinder with the implication that he's going to enjoy torturing Ruby by taking the girl's left eye. Not only does he not have any fear for Ruby's silver eye power, Hazel makes it clear in a casual, dismissive tone that Salem's gang has dealt with Ruby's kind before, implying they're responsible for Summer's death... and Summer was a fully trained, experienced Huntress. Her daughter is neither experienced, nor is she properly trained.

* The Asian Dragon Grimm that attacks the ship Blake is on is huge; the ship's crew comment that it's not just the largest Grimm they've ever seen, it's the largest one anyone has ever seen. It's not just a creature of the deep waters, but it clearly has no trouble breathing above water either. It can also produce wings, giving it mastery of both the sea and air. Even though the ship is covered in cannons and guns, it can't make a dent in the beast, which is simultaneously too fast and too powerful to be damaged. Its BreathWeapon gives it a long-rage attack, and is the power of electricity, which Neptune has already proven with his own electricity-based power, is a horrible ability when the victims are surrounded by water. Not only did the ship need Blake and Sun to disable the wings for the ship to stand a chance, but if the ship hadn't hit the disabled dragon at ramming speed and used its main cannon to blow the head off, Blake and Sun would actually have sacrificed their lives to disable just the wings, meaning even two trainee Huntsmen working together didn't stand a chance against it alone.
* The treatment Salem is performing to heal Cinder consists of her doing something to Cinder's arm that makes a very unnatural sound. Cinder is fighting against something which causes her great strain while Salem states she must make 'it' dread her. Mercury and Emerald again look deeply uncomfortable with what is happening, and then a jellyfish-type Grimm floats in, covered in black flesh, spiles and red tentacles, and making some eerie clicking noises. Mercury and Emerald back themselves into the wall trying to avoid being touched by the thing. When it comes to a stop next to Salem and Cinder, Salem orders Cinder to force her broken voice to work enough to answer her questions truthfully. The creature next clicks the whole way through, collects Salem's orders and departs, leaving even Cinder looking deeply unsettled.

No Brakes
* The White Fang Lieutenant is introduced while slowly [[SwordDrag dragging]] his [[ChainsawGood chainsword]] over the floor. He has a deep, raspy voice and, after getting nearly beaten by Weiss, suddenly grabs her face, slams her on the ground, and throws her in the air. It cuts to the next scene right when he's seemingly about to cut her in half with his chainsaw.

-->[[strike:\"Finally, I get to kill a Schnee...\"]]

Fall
* The Fall Maiden, Amber, is in stasis with a hideous scar on her face. Ozpin\'s group explain to Pyrrha that this is unpredecented - Amber\'s had half her power stolen and they need transfer Amber\'s Aura and life to Pyrrha to prevent Cinder getting the rest of the power - not only will this kill Amber, but it might destroy Pyrrha\'s identity, too. Pyrrha has looked increasingly uncomfortable and scared by people she initially thought were just her teachers and now realises are complete strangers to her. She\'s terrified of them and the situation; with her ace-student persona gone, she\'s reduced to a terrified child. When she asks why the Maidens aren\'t common knowledge, she\'s told they used to be until power-mad people tried to kill them for their powers, confirming the Maiden powers do not protect them and knowledge of them would overturn society as they know it, including religion.

Punished
* Things hit rock bottom for Weiss; whose [[{{Jerkass}} father]] places her under house arrest, strips her of her inheritance, and cuts her off from her future career as a Huntress. Then [[BitchInSheepsClothing Whitley]] reveals he has taken an \"if you can\'t beat them, join them\" approach to dealing with his father, by becoming the same kind of person as Jacques. The way Whitley\'s eyes [[FishEyes bug out]] as he warns Weiss not to go against their father\'s wishes shows that something is \'\'clearly\'\' wrong with the kid. It\'s hard to tell if the look in his eyes is one of [[HellishPupils malice]], [[FishEyes madness]], [[WideEyesandShrunkenIrises or abject terror]]; maybe even all three.
* Ruby immediately chops off Tyrian\'s stinger when he injures Qrow, but their reactions to the strike are out-of-place. After insulting Ruby, Tyrian starts to hunch over and cringe. His behaviour becomes furtive and paranoid and he begins muttering over and over that Salem will forgive him, in a tone that suggests he knows she won\'t. He\'s also clearly got balance issues now his tail has been damaged. Meanwhile, Ruby hasn\'t batted an eyelid over the injury she\'s caused, giving her a strange combination of casual brutality and innocent protectiveness.
--->\'\'\'Tyrian:\'\'\' \'\'[[PrecisionFStrike YOU BITCH!]]\'\'

[=PVP=]
* The episode ends with the Grimm attacking and the White Fang assaulting the inside of the city with their a mixture of Faunus and Grimm. Cinder turns Atlas\' own weaponry against them and the people. Pyrrha is emotionally compromised and Torchwick has stolen an Atlas ship.

A Much Needed Talk
* Qrow\'s entire description of Salem and the flawless nature of her plans. Nobody can stop her from making people blame one another, because knowing about her would only speed up her plan to have Grimm destroy everything in the panic and chaos.
--->\'\'\'Qrow:\'\'\' \'\'She works from the shadows, using others for her dirty work. That way, when it comes time to place the blame, we can only point at each other.\'\'
