That's actually the other reasons I was doubting the whole deal with Okonogi and Amakusa.
Now the issue is: What's up with Amakusa in the trick end then?
His behavior wasn't suspicious, considering the situation. It is just that the weapons he has taken with him don't make much sense.
However, if we flip the chessboard, Ange's theory isn't flawless either: If the premise was to kill Kasumi and Ange, why would he need to stage their confrontation considering they are in a deserted island? For all we know, he could as well throw their corpses as fish food as well.
Thus, the existence of the Tokarev doesn't really prove jack. In fact, it could pretty well be a weapon just in case, for either himself or even Ange.
At worst, it is possible that Amakusa was actually using Ange as a bait, but nevertheless tried to protect her as well (but Episode 4 ending scroll and Episode 6 phone call are just death flag everywhere).
Unless, we use a "love filled" vision and consider that Okonogi implied that "Ushiromiya Ange should no longer exist" without necesseraly killing her. A shaddy way to recreate the same scenario than the magic end.
