Hmmm, you're good at this speculation business, aren't you? 
Moving on...
Episode 6
"Pino, when a person dies, you never see them again."
I chose that line in bold there as my key quote from this episode, but there's another line that I've loved from the moment I first heard it, and it's always stayed with me, even to the point that I absorbed it into my way of living. It's Daedalus: "I'm not so naive as to show a card I haven't been asked for."
Yeah, that was the most important development in this episode.
I mean, I've seen this series twice before, myself, so...
Nah, I still got tricked by it as well. 
It's because the storyboarding is so skillful, though. We see Vincent flying the craft, but that was only to set it down where Re-l could be loaded into it.
The misdirection also continues into a bit of Vincent's dialogue. The English subs do a brilliant job but can't help but slightly telegraph that it's Re-l herself rather than Re-l and Vincent who are going back to Romdeau. The actual Japanese dialogue, though, is very clever. You see, Japanese as a language will routinely omit things from sentences that are already felt to be understood in context, so what Vincent actually says to the unaware Re-l is:
"Romdeau e kaeru n' da yo, Re-l-san."
This transliterates as "Going home to Romdeau, Re-l." The sentence doesn't specify whether it's you, I or we, but Vincent already understands this in context. Because we as viewers weren't privy to Vincent and Hoody's discussion where they must've formulated their plan, though, we would wrongly assume that Vincent meant "we". Very clever.
And lastly for episode 6, to an observer, Hoody met a sad demise, but he really didn't see it that way himself. Oh, and...
