The main plot in this episode feels a bit unnecessary, especially since the subplots scattered all over this episode (Millay's engagement, Villetta's status) are far more interesting. I think the only reason the writers decide to have this is because they want to incorporate that revelation towards the end of this episode. However, I think we've always suspect this revelation to be true so I think the writers could have written it in a different manner. I just hope that this will allow some kind of character development for Suzaku, who so far hasn't had interesting personality and story. Although it's unlikely, it would have been interesting if Suzaku ends up being the main villain of the series. At least that would give him a much more interesting role than a simple Britannian's loyal servant who romances the 3rd Princess.
