Episode 6, Euphie's comment about Clovis' paintings...
How is her exact wording after the "such gentle colours"? o.o
All the subs I watched said something that implied she wasn't really close to Clovis, but now the dub claims it's "very much akin to my brother".
It irks me.
word-for-word translation:
kore ga niisama datta no desu ne
'this was my brother.'
'this' means what the paintings says to Euphie.
so, better translation is:
such gentle colours... It tells me How he was.
(I cannot write literarily good sentence, sorry.)

I think she didn't knows about Clovis so much especially after growing up.
Then she knew him through the paintings and mourn.
This scene changes viewrs image to Clovis constructed in Ep1or2 through Lelouch's point of view.


and question after your edit...
I don't think Clovis knew about Charls's plans. If he knew, He never mourn to Marianne.
