It's cruelly realistic that under such circumstances a newbie, ignorant crew like Tekkadan would be easily used by the estalished power for smuggling weapons and stir up trouble serving some shady political motives. They never even thought to check the cargo they were hauling, which means it never occurred to them someone could be using them as mere tools. It's a good sign Orga immediately sensed things were taking a bad turn when their fame was suddenly out of proportions.

Fumitan's real purpose was confirmed now, but luckily she has grown too attached to Kudelia, no doubt because Kudelia treats her like family and is always relying on her. She has a far bigger heart than her stiff and cold behavior would suggest. Kudelia herself was damn cute in this ep. A nice contrast to Mika, who was acting like nothing out of ordinary ever happened.
