Spoiler for just in case:
Apparently they used an active decoy for the fake I-401. Not really sure if nanomachines were used to make it more believable, but my guess is that is the case. As was guessed previously, the crew members that were shot were fakes. Not sure is Shizuka is a fake or not, I didn't see her on the bridge of the real I-401, so I'm guessing the real Shizuka was left behind.
By the by, she is kicking some ass with her skull face and heart cheeks.
Have we seen the Musashi avatar before? Takao was amusing as always. I'm also looking forward to Hyuuga's robots running amok later.
Gunzou brings up an interesting question regarding his father, Is he real? and what's with all those dudes on the deck of the
Musashi? Are they real? And what's so important about the Straight of Dover that a big deal was made about moving into it?
