Honestly, a pretty flimsy plan. Of course everyone apparently getting randomly dumped into this world also reflects poor planning in general. I mean sure if he escorts her on foot to their enemy....she should arrive there about 10 years after the conflict is over . Her options do certainly suck to be fair. She doesn't know where she is, where her allies are, where the enemies are, etc. Basically dumped into a bad situation where she can't really be of use at all.

Again, I'd be more impressed if Leafa didn't hang around letting herself be the victim of tentacle porn for minutes before realizing that maybe that woman was evil. I know her character is blonde in-game but doesn't need to play to a stereotype here . Since she doesn't know this scene is about letting the pig general have character development, there's no good reason to wait this long to do something. She didn't even need to kill her to escape...Which means she had no reason to hang there as long as she did.

Good for the guy to get a character moment. But I'm not entirely sure every enemy general needs this 'rise against the system' character arc. All they need is enough of them to do so.

And it is nice that Leafa got to smite the woman. But it really doesn't salvage the scene. And still makes Leafa look stupid and incompetent. Not a good look for the first episode back for this series.
