A pretty entertaining episode, but pretty damn jarring seeing Kiritsugu as a cheerful young boy. And the sudden murder of his own father. I wonder if that was caused by a wish to do the world good, or was it, more likely, from a wish of vengeance for what his dad's research did to Shirley? Any novel readers care to clarify this one?
Watching this episode, I feel it's a manipulation on the part of Natalie. She may have said "this isn't something for a kid to do" but she was the one who sent Kiritsugu in.

Kiritsugu was the type to take decisive action after deciding to (jumping off the higher rock) and he was in a state of fear and confusion at that point. It really seems to me that Natalie took advantage of this.
