Madlax Episode 17 - reunion
Vanessa and Madlax are framed for the murder of a minor royal figure in order to set all the military forces of Gazth-sonika on them. This makes it onto the news, and Margaret finally finds out what's happened to her, resolving to go to Gazth-sonika at once. Her complete lack of subtlety nearly lands them in trouble, but Carossur bails them out. Luck also happens to be what saves Madlax and Vanessa after they're caught at a road blockade, when Rimelda slaughters her own comrades for the chance to kill Madlax herself. In return, Madlax gives Rimelda the data on Enfan's involvement in Gazth-sonika. Finally, the two groups have almost converged.
Did anyone else find this episode bizarrely funny? With the increasing annoyance of Elinor with Carossur, Rimelda taking the whole gun metaphor a liiiittle too far and Badgis FINALLY doing something with his stupid haircut, it seemed a little more lighthearted than usual. Can't see that lasting.
