[Solitary Shadow]

Rena's existance dwindled to almost zero in this epsode. Meh. But Takano was amazing. ;P

A quickie question, since I avoided spoilers for this earlier. Was there anything specific behind "Rena's hat message" in the first arc? Satoko did seem as if she had understood something other than "I'm in danger".

Spoiler for Rena's Message:

Rena's body was never found. There was blood on the hat. If it were a gas disaster, there wouldn't be any blood (as seen in the episode, Satoko saw them lying in piles but never saw blood). Rena might not have been trying to prove that the disaster was fake, but Satoko understood this.

I think in the PS2 game Rena tried to prove this with a hamster.
