RITSUKO:“I don't think I'll ever be a mother,
so I don't understand her as a mother.
But I respected her as a scientist.
However, as a woman, I even hated her.”
MISATO:“You're rather talkative today.”
RITSUKO:“It's been known to happen.”
UrsusArctos: This gives so much context for Naoko's onscreen appearance in Episode 21 and her interactions with Ritsuko (and Gendo). And props to Yuriko Yamaguchi for her awesome line delivery, she absolutely nails Ritsuko's attitude towards her mother in this scene.
