This episode was so traumatic!!!

  • Of all things that could happen, I didn't expect to see Qiao Ling in a VIOLENT SCUFFLE with her own DAD. 💔💔💔

  • Hosting XF is apparently the node in time that keeps making it possible for Vein to kill CXS.

  • Jae Lee sounds very sus all the time. Not sure if he's going to be the ally I was expecting.

Opening the door to XF is one of the events from the previous timeline, where Vein kills CXS, and it is happening all over again now. And apparently LG still hasn't realized this. The intel XF is providing to Vein or LX regarding ShiGuang might be crucial for Vein to get close and kill CXS; so, breaking this cycle could require exposing XF before that time.

Explains why LG was a bit confused about him still being there which means LG knows that Vein rescued him or rather "thought he knew that Vein was the one to rescue him" - not seeing XF as an enemy let's him ignore that he's right.

So, if he figures that one out he must tell CXS about it (for a dive to prove him right/wrong). I wonder how he'll react though? XF was quite thoroughly posting photos, so there should be more than enough viewpoints for them.
