Certainly a few laughs is probably necessary since things are likely to remain pretty dark. Although I have to wonder if Kurisu's personal data is entirely necessary. I mean clearly two major countries are getting work done even without that laptop. It might simply speed things up for them if they can get their hands on it.

Good focus for Maho though. Getting closer to Okabe dropping the truth on her. And no doubt we're likely on the road to an emotional outburst if he does reveal things to her. Kurisu could be alive right now if Okabe was willing to get back to it and take his chances on there being a better world line than the two main ones he knows exists.

But regardless if that laptop gets taken that may force his hand. Right now he's trying to make this timeline work and to stop WW3 without time travel. That obviously can't happen for the story to continue.
