Mr. Tines: What Shinji had been waiting to hear all along. As much from his mother (who doesn't reject her husband in this Instrumentality) as from Gendo.
UrsusArctos: Yui is in her purple turtleneck, which is associated with her as Eva-01 in EoE. Perhaps she didn't reject her husband but rather brought him into Instrumentality in a more painful way than most others as a punishment for hurting Shinji, and has reconciled with him by this point.
