   So the deciding factor in the battle for the fate of the Earth is…   
   uneaten pancakes.  *sigh*  Makoto’s cookies are just too good.   
   Apocalyptically good.   
      
   Anyway, aside from that, not a bad episode, I suppose.  While Rubeus may   
   have been totally indifferent to the fate of the Four Sisters, his   
   ability to lose them all one right after the other hasn’t gone unnoticed   
   by the higher ups, who are just now noticing how his mental instability   
   is slightly dragging down his performance.   
      
   Okay, so I’m not a big Rubeus fan, so what?   
      
   Seemed like every time we saw the Senshi during their search, they were   
   in different pairs.  Weird.   
      
   I rather liked seeing Usagi’s reaction at the end.  In a way, this *is*   
   Chibi-Usa’s fault.  She’s not stupid, she knew what that broach was used   
   for.  For Usagi, losing those four has been a fear that’s been quietly   
   curdling at the back of her mind since D-Point, and when it suddenly   
   happened, and there wasn’t a thing she could do about it, I’m not all   
   that surprised that she was ready to lash out at the closest person she   
   could blame.   
      
   Not to say that I can be all that hard on Chibi-Usa here.  She’s a kid.   
     A clever, underhanded kid, but still a kid.  She made a choice that   
   she probably realized was bad as she made it, and spent the rest of the   
   episode running from friend and foe and her own conscience.  Her rant   
   about the Senshi just saving her because she had the broach sounds   
   idiotic to an adult, but to say anything else would be to admit she was   
   wrong, and she’s really just not brave enough for that yet.
