I know it has Gambit in the name so we want to shoehorn it, but how is Kuvira\'s plan a BatmanGambit? Her plan pretty much would\'ve gone down exactly the same no matter what everyone else did. BatmanGambit is about a plan that relies on predicting people\'s responses. Her plan is clever, but I don\'t think it would\'ve changed in the slightest depending on who she was dealing with. \

Also, I didn\\\'t see any indication she was trying to capture the city with minimal civilian casualties (or even that she knew RC was being evacuated).

Double also: EvenEvilHasLovedOnes says this episode cements that Kuvira loves Bataar. Does it? I got the exact opposite feeling. She noticeably doesn\\\'t say \\\"I love you\\\" back to him, instead saying something along the lines of \\\"I couldn\\\'t have done this without you\\\" which sounds suspiciously like she only cares about what he can do, not about him. Now, the trope still applies because obviously Bataar loves her, but I didn\\\'t see a lot showing she reciprocated.
