I was very wary of watching another episode after being so repulsed by the last half of the first episode (having first been very intrigued by the first half). But I suffered through the second episode, absurd as it was, and I will probably watch another episode merely because Miyuki was toned down by about 80%. If he had treated Izumiko the same as he had in the first episode, I wouldn't be warily waiting for the 3rd. I just wouldn't be watching this series again.
After watching the second episode, it seems like I shall have to put my soothsayer's hat on if and when I watch the next episodes. I expect that there will be further bewildering events, circumstances, and changes in attitude that explanations for which are, at best, only vaguely hinted at, leaving the viewing audience in a perpetual state of, "Huh? What? Why? Did I miss something when I sneezed?"

Must be that old anime logic. The aeroplane computers are protected by that locked door between the passengers and the pilots. Yup, that must be it.

I'll agree with this, certainly, but it doesn't explain the
drastic difference in the way they behaved with each other between the end of the first episode and the start of the second. Then again, I wasn't wearing my soothsayer hat when I watched the episode.

Having now realized that she is someone very, very special, he may learn to be more accepting. Especially since his father is telling him to go away, a suggestion which he will of course resist.

Reading this I think to myself how very predictable this all seems. And improbable if we were actually to believe what we witnessed in the first episode.
