(All the more reason for people not to drop manga spoilers or even subtle hints. I understand the eagerness to share knowledge but, really, it damages the viewing experience for anime-only audiences. Please be considerate.)
But it was just so out of character and an unnecessary addition to the episode (and it resulted in some people thinking differently of Eren than what he really is). I really don't get why that scene was added.
