Oluo and Sasha were more outsourced off-model than usual... so it goes.

Regarding pacing, the first half, where the recruits (and veterans) all gradually reached their mutual conclusion regarding the nature of the mission, started to really drag. A few more cuts back to the situation with the Female Titan would have at least broken up the talking-head effect that occurred after a couple of minutes. The last few minutes were appropriately tense and informative, but it was a chore to get there.

Also, putting in a few shots of the Female Titan would have lessened the feeling that they'd just spent twelve minutes staring idly at the trapped Female Titan before they got on with their plan.

Erwin seems to be doing a decent job of compensating for an opponent that doesn't just add extra cards to their hand in the middle of the game but changes the rules as the game goes on. After the mission wraps I'd be worried about protecting him.
