”If this mission succeeds, we could see a swimming pool again.”
If you know how many people relieve themselves in a pool, you wouldn't want to go in one ever again. Do you really want to swim in a pool of chlorine that could do more than just irritate your skin when there's a little too much of it in the water?
There wasn't much of a surprise when the killer girl turned out to be friendly enough with Dr. Song that she accepted the woman around her and led her to her hideout with a perfect view of planet Earth. But I still liked the notion that Luna knew Dr. Song was a woman to be trusted, considering she most likely knew Song's sister five years ago, or knew the pictures at least well enough that Dr. Song was not a stranger to her. Although that awakens a wholly new storyline for the show to entirely forget about: Living on this lunar station for five years, all on your own, possibly after witnessing the brutal and agonizing deaths of everyone you knew, just to face the one woman you have seen in pictures? I'm sure this situation should have fried Luna's mind, but the show didn't have time to get down that story path, so it only relied on Song to find the picture and realize that her sister was involved with Luna before the accident.
Meanwhile, the spy in the crew makes a break, and kind of does so terribly. Instead of just getting out of there and hoping to be picked up by his spy comrades, he is working towards something else, and just remaining and waiting at headquarters, when he could have easily been out of the station already. The dude could have just packed up and gone after the murder, but here he is, having to waste time because the people he works for aren't ready to pick him up yet. I would change spy agencies if that happened to me.
