Maurice isn't as calm and composed as he appears, at least when he's not in front of crowds.

Ciel gave himself a personal mission this episode and it's interesting to see his progress. I like how Ciel stood his ground this episode and didn't let himself be intimiated. Maurice is definitely one of those guys that shifts his personality on the fly. Well played Ciel. He really took this game into his own hands this time.

It's funny how Ciel talks about doing everything, but it's Sebastian who's actually doing it all behind the scenes.

Ciel and Soma ride on Soma's elephant. Soma shares the difficulty of getting into school and explains why his servant, Agni, couldn't join him due to school rules. Changing the topic, Ciel reveals why he needs Soma's help, mentioning Maurice and asking Soma to befriend him. Touched by the request, Soma suggests they all have curry together, but Ciel declines and asks Soma to observe Maurice instead, reporting back quickly. Ciel emphasizes keeping their conversation secret, which Soma agrees to, and they both head back to their dorms.

I've been meaning to mention this for a while, but in this episode, especially when Ciel and Macmillan are in bed together, Ciel's new look is so feminine. Not that there's anything wrong with it; if anything, it's closer to Yana's original design for Ciel in the manga. It's funy how Sebastian acts like he didn't recognize Ciel and Soma. Soma just can't help himself; he adores Ciel that much. Then we got poor Sebastian having to salvage everything from the trash and tape it up. And Ciel, you sly devil... but that's what makes him interesting.

Step one of the plan is complete. Now onto the main task of the mission: finding Derrick Arden.

AH that was so good to see cole get served like that, ciel is such a mastermind like he planned all that on his own. This episode was fantastic honestly but i feel bad for the red house prefect, that guy seems genuinely nice but his drudge was a pos

That guy can REALLY nag. IDK how long a normal person could hold out against him. He's got no manners and no filter!

Kudos on Ciel for turning the tables.

BTW what's up with the whole asking him to be a drudge that made it feel like some wedding ceremony? With flower no less?

Finally those prefects laughing while Sebastian is hanging upside down like a bat ... he looks jealous really!

I remember Soma now, that cute tanned prince in Season One...how could I forgot? He's still hilarious as ever and I was really glad that despite his inability to keep secrets and persistent attitude which made me doubt that he wouldn't be much of a help...he proved me wrong otherwise. That blushing smile he did after Ciel gave his thanks was so precious! 😭
Then next was the unswerving loyalty of Sebastian in sight, by digging in the trash site, gluing all the ripped notes, even sending Cole's pictures all over the school---this tandem which made me go crazy some years ago was making my heart flatter again!
That covert smile of both Ciel and Sebastian portrayed satisfaction, the same satisfaction I am having for this show again 🖤🤧

I love Ciel face, when he knows he wins, he is full of arrogance.

And well, the plan to get closer to the 4Ps is back on track and continues its course.

It's a pleasure to see Maurice Cole being humiliated like this! The "Yamete Kudasai" from Ciel's seiyū, Maaya Sakamoto, is incredible!

Soma is having a grand entrance as always! We love to see it! He looks stunning and is oblivious as always lol. You know Agni is going through it right now.

That was quite the sweet revenge Ciel and Sebastian got. Cole lost everything the moment he messed with Ciel.

Things were bound to be funny with Soma here. He really brought his elephant with him. Ciel took the first step getting closer to the prefects. It was so much work for him to do, *sips tea*.

Oh anime logic, pls never change.

The Redmond's "I heard everything" using a makeshift contraption got me laughing. And why would they let him install all that in the gazebo after his previous transgression and the fact that the P4 weren't really acquainted with him that much anyway?

Other than that, great episode.

Not even sure what that bunch was planning to do with Ciel xD

Blonde guy got clowned and it was for the best. But hey, Sebastian doesn’t have to do him so bad by making his secret photos public. His rest of years in school are going to be hell lol.
