- Why is Dorlian bringing Relena with him to the colonies when she acted like such an ungrateful bitch the last time? My little sister once gave me attitude when I gave her a ride somewhere and that was the last time I ever chauffeured her ass around.

- Relena's groupies disturb me. Like, a lot.

- Chill, Relena. You just found out you're a princess. \o/?

- Howard! I love that crazy Hawaiian shirt dude.

- "Goodbye, friend Trowa! We'll meet again!" Call me! *phone fingers* Man, Quatre's crushing hardcore.

- Um, Relena's flashback is wrong; Heero was shot in the arm, not the leg. And her earrings are hideous.

- Dr. J is totally creepy. In a "come sit on Granpa's lap, Relena" way. Someone should alert Chris Hansen.

I was always under the impression that he promised to spend time with her when he took her the last time and then defaulted, so she was a bit miffed about that, which is understandable. It wasn't that she was ungrateful for him bringing her it was just that he promised something that he couldn't deliver on.

I think Relena is more freaked out about her father dying than the reveal about her heritage. She can't really process it. I mean if my father was dying and I was with people I didn't know and couldn't trust, I would be pretty freaked too.

Heero was shot twice, in both the arm and the leg, they totally show her doing first aid to both in the second episode. Granted GW tends to miss the ball on some continuity things later on, but this was not one of them.

Maybe it's because I have the American DVDs, because I only saw him get hit in the arm.

I have the American DVDs and I saw both. I always forget the second shot, but it was the one where he was diving to re retrieve the gun and Duo quickly marks back up.

I just capped that episode for icons which so it is a bit fresher in my mind whereas the rewatch did this one three weeks ago.

Oh I KNOW about her groupies! Even the most popular of people in high school are not worshiped like that!

Maybe not in the US... <.< The Japanese are odd.

I think Quatre isn't crushing. It's just that (I think) he finally found a person who can understand him. His family encourages pacifism and they are against Quatre's decision. Since Trowa is the first one he meets who understand what he is doing, he seems really happy and maybe a bit hopeful that what he is doing can't be totally wrong (I mean going against the wishes of the family...that requires a lot of determination). He feels kind of reassured.
