As for goodbyes on Earth i don't know if Yuki is seen with her parents or not (guess that would either disprove her as an alien or give creedence to her being a vessel for one). We see Tokugawa with his family, especially his grandaughter (Kathleen in SB), Shima with his brother (wich is the "main kid" in Yuki's class), Akira cutting her hair and Kodai in what i'm guessing is Mamoru's appartment. This may be a way of putting the goodbyes from the original's ep. 10 out of the way, as you say.
