The captain and first officer continue to be sarcastic.
CAPTAIN:“As a provision in case of emergency, we, the Pacific Fleet, are escorting it. Since when, I wonder, did the U.N. forces transition to become a delivery service?”
MAN (RADIO):“No activity on the enemy surveillance radar.”
Kendrix: We’re inclined to root for Misato since she’s our protagonist and a cool lady cussing out an old grumpy soldier guy, but having any dubious organization acting above the law is a very legitimate concern & probably meant to be a red flag.
Of course, she is absolutely right in that she knows a lot that these guys do not, but though the last episode already gave her some reason to be suspicious, she’s still gleefully flaunting her organization's special position when it is convenient for her & gets her closer to sweet sweet vengeance. It will still be a while until she gets proper suspicious from ep 15 onwards.
Kensuke passes across the foreground.
FIRST OFFICER:“I remember it being after a certain organization was established.”
