	044	Close-up of Misato's face in profile. She holds her beer in one hand and wears a serious expression. She cradles the telephone receiver with her shoulder. SE <<Sound of a telephone ringing, then the sound of a receiver being picked up immediately after the first ring>> MAN (OFF - TELEPHONE):“Yes?” MISATO:“He just left. Please guard him from here.”	Sailor Star Dust: I love that subtle creepiness of Nerv watching the every move of their pilots. (I really like how Eva 1.0 reinforced that, with Shinji and the bridge scene.) Kendrix: As with the earlier "awkward moment", they don't let us forget for a moment that all this is taking place within the framework of this large ominous organization and that he really IS part of her job. She's still telling strangers who want to use him about his every move, something that would be considered a huge breach of trust if your real mother/sister did it. And though he's enjoying a little bit of normal schoolboy life, he's being surveilled in ways a normal schoolboy wouldn't be, they're ready to rip him out of his normal life at a moment's notice. Even in its more lighthearted moments, this show never quite lets go of the subtle background tension and the atmosphere that creates.
