   Speaking of the crystal carriers, Urawa said something about having   
   some residual talent left implying to me that his power originally   
   came from the crystal.

   Not at all, Chris, here is the way I see it with no violation and Mako   
   still has not noticed. When Makoto and Ami were speaking, Mako is   
   seriously trying to encourage Ami to reconcile with Urawa (both in and   
   out of context). However Ami is reluctant because she is actually in   
   love with Mako. Ami's last statement is something to the effect that   
   Mako doesn't quite understand the real reason for her reluctance   
   (Which is left unexplained). That works just fine for me ^_^   
      
   In the final scene with Ami in the Ferris wheel with Urawa, it looked   
   more like a pity date to me then anything serious (Ami is not blushing   
   at all).   
      
   BTW, Mamoru is pretty darn tough. In my opinion, I think he is second   
   only to Sailor Moon in power. I'm glad that he pulled his punch in the   
   battle with Jupiter. Even if he was hypnotized, I would have lost   
   respect for him if he had connected.
