Episode 20: The Worst Possible Punishment

While Team A hunts for the source of the noisy alert, Mutta spots odd actions from Yasushi. Prompted by Naoto's remark regarding the surveillance feeds, Mutta suspects JAXA orchestrated the chaos, remembering a practice from Houston where trainees receive green cards directing them to trigger disruptions. Mutta accurately concludes that both Yasushi and Naoto were assigned secret instructions to smash the timekeeper and trigger the chime. Later, Serika reveals her food shortage, which Mutta incorrectly assumes is another planted directive.
