  Last episode was pretty awful from the pacing to direction to animation to everything else. But this week it seems to be back to normal so that's good. Hopefully it stays like this from now on.

  Also, I don't understand why she helped a clear criminal out of jail. Hopefully they explain that later. Otherwise, that's bad.

    At the end of episode 4 the captain reveals to Vicky the reasons behind the criminal actions, and probably Vicky just wanted to make justice to the sister of the criminal, I don't think there is another reason

    What sayaskye said. There is an implication in the story that a noble man committed a crime but is not even referred to as a criminal while his punishment is negligible compared to the hurt he caused, meanwhile a commoner man who wanted to deliver him justice on his own and failed to kill him is not only referred to as a criminal but also will be killed for what he tried to do (noble would for sure not be punished with death in the same situation). Vicky may have thought the situation was unfair and decided that helping him escape with his sister is far more just than being hanged for trying to punish a man who committed a crime against his family.

  I love Nonna's play that was the highlight of the episode to me because I love getting little tiny bits of that cute wholesome fan service where you can just see her smile, be cute and adorable. It warms my heart and soothes my soul to see such a cute thing. That whole play was the cutest.

  I also didn't really care too much about the prison break. Honestly I didn't. I'll be honest, I understand it. The guy's sister got assaulted right before her marriage and that really messed her up mentally. The brother wanted to avenge or lash out to try to get payback for what the Noble did to his sister, which is also understandable. Any good brother wants to protect their own sister to the ends of the earth so I'm actually happy that Vicky helped them run away.

  I do think that was amazing but I didn't really care too much about that. I was too preoccupied with all the cuteness from the play. I am a little sad. I kind of wish they just gave us half of the episode being just the play and we actually get to watch the thing in full. I think that would have been amazing but they didn't want it. They didn't want to spoil us too much. If I'm being honest I don't think Vicky's the MC. I think Nonna's the MC here. lol because let's be honest, a lot of us came for Vicky but stayed for Nonna.

  Also that very last scene. I don't want them to mess with Vicky and Nonna. They just need to let her go. Hopefully they'll understand and see that Nonna wants to be with Vicky and Vicky wants to be with Nonna. They're like mother and daughter or sisters hopefully they won't try to break apart that wholesome found family though I do worry that they're gonna blow her cover. It's gonna be known that she is an agent or was an agent and then she'll have to move but I hope that doesn't happen.

  After revealing what that noble did last episode, I was upset that Carl was going to be executed while the noble basically got a slap on the wrist and I was worried we just wouldn't see anything else involving him. Boy was I wrong! I was hoping that Vicky would somehow figure out how to get revenge on the noble but I'm glad she helped Carl and his sister escape. Also to find out that the sister wasn't even the only victim? UGH! I wonder if that's gonna come back around since the women were actually named. Wishful thinking most likely though.

    I also assumed that was the end of Carl's story so this episode was a very pleasant surprise :D
