Piece-Yasu's motive in EP1-4 is plenty ridiculous in of itself, and EP5 is with a different Game Master and Player; so I don't think the motive in EP5 is really meant to be something that could be able to stand up to serious scrutiny. Just wave the hand.

The suicide? I had already thought it was a suicide from Will's "coffin" remark, although the method of hiding the weapon I had never imagined.

Agree. Natsuhi would
probably know the baby's sex. Also, regardless of the voice, the MF19YO presented themselves as male, which meant that either the MF19YO really was male, or that he
assumed Natsuhi didn't know the baby's sex and thus would accept the idea that the baby was male.
You can make things fit if you really want to believe the baby's sex to be female, but the
only hint that points to Yasu's sex being female is her gender orientation (which itself is only female
leaning...). It's most elegant if Yasu's sex is male and gender is (kind of) female.
