When you look closesly, you can see a watery liquid dripping from the Eva’s hand.
MISATO (OFF):“So, what caused the accident during
the experiment last time?”
RITSUKO (OFF):“We still don't know, but...”
EvangelionFan: I always liked the look of cuts 059-064, I love how it sets up a false sense of security for Episode 14...
thewayneiac: Could you elaborate on how it does that? I always found this dialogue rather disturbing, and that this is confirmed in Ep. 14.
EvangelionFan: I agree that the dialogue is worrying, however in Episodes 06, 11 and 12, Unit-00 shows signs of functioning completely normally with Rei as its pilot. It is only when Shinji is tested in Unit-00 that it malfunctions/beserks a second time and attempts to attack Rei; hence 'false sense of security'. It's a feeling I've only gotten from looking at the cut in the commentary, as I recall feeling nothing from the scene otherwise.
