Description: A great deal changes in this episode. Saionji returns in what seems a bit role as a catalyst for the next sequence of events, but grows as the show's conclusion draws near. Utena and Anthy reach a new stage in their relationship, including a very unsubtle leap in their intimacy level now that they face each other as they sleep. Akio steps up his insidious seduction of our title character, and things all around start getting pretty f-ed up. I love. Love. Love this episode.
