I am the only one who has noticed that Light had said Ryuk's name once? Ryuk said immediately afterwards that they shouldn't be talking inside the house, but L didn't notice that! Aren't there bugging devices everywhere?

Great, very interesting. Wonder who's gonna be the winner in the end...
Both L and Light have brilliant minds, their thoughts are so similar. Hmm..
I'm looking forward to seeing how's Light gonna manage to keep on doing
the stuff he does without being suspicious with all those cameras. Well...
My prediction is that he will manage to convince them somehow that he is
not Kira, so they'll remove the cameras... Wow, so intriguing... ^_____^

I think that there r only cameras in the rm, no bugs. So perhaps light know the names of the criminals being broadcasted by listening to the news?
At the L scene, I didnt hear any sound from the TV they used to show the camera scenes.

he didnt say it, if u watched carefully, u'll c tat light didnt move his lips. He was thinking the reply. And what ryuk said was to himself, cuz light didnt reply, ryuk remembered that loght cant talk to him in the rm.

All of Light's precautions are reasonable except having small TV inside chips which looked far-fetched; but given his intelligence, his situtation and that he already knew something like this would happen someday, I guess extraordinary measures like this is okay. I also agree that at least one out of sixty-four cameras would be enough to see through this. But well, L doesn't seem like convinced yet either way. L being on offense now makes it even more interesting.

okay this sounds a bit hmmm... well but i have to say it seeing L eating that ice cream that close to the screen was epic and it was sexy as hell oh.boy.. i loved that scene okay i want green ice cream now ( i think its green tea flavor)

L found some interesting things in the video tapes
1 - RAY penber didn't have the envelop when he got out of the train(his dying moment) but had it with him when he boarded the train .

2- it only take an hour to complete the train root but he spend 1 hour and 30 minutes on the train.

3- the way RAY penber was struggling to see inside of the train .

L is epic... light is making so many mistakes . NAOMI is missing and L knowing NAOMI's personality suspect something and L is just right behind lights sorry ass now :3 wow L i love you more and more now!

light's biggest mistake doing the BUS JACKING :3

He had the mini-tv set up in advance? Well, he is smart.

But he must have read the name of the guys from the running lines, because there was no way of hearing and don't be detected.

And even then, L found something weird....

And that was supposed to be a breathing episode, heh? It had more comedy than ever, but still so nervous.

Also the entire time, I was thinking about what a regular 17 year old boy would do alone in his room, unaware that he is being recorded live. That would've been awkward af

Wow, 64 cameras, SASUGA L~
Light had some nice thinking to deal with them. But how did he know the names of the criminals? If by sound, won't it also be recorded and heard by L? I probably won't rate this ep until I finish the next one to see if there will be any explanations on that.

Gonna love L's reasons why he didn't fall for it. Light reacted too hastily, typical criminal psychology.

Loled at the ice cream scene. Light's dad got triple scoop while the others only got two. Ryuk's reactions to lack of apples was also hilarious.

Ah, that infamous potato chip scene. I was waiting for that.

Light is ridiculously clever, but I think that might be his downfall...because he's trying so hard to act like a "normal teenage boy", it comes off as the opposite imo.
I mean, it's weird af for a guy to look at a ton of magazines featuring hot, scantily clothed women in the privacy of his room and not have any visible affects or do anything.

Like, he's just flicking through this mag with the most bored expression on his face lmao
It's making him more suspicious if anything because he looks like he's hiding something and might be aware someone's watching.

Also, I wanna know how he got that portable TV in a bag of crisps without anyone seeing...also how the hell did he write names down without the cameras seeing?? Was it out of view?? Did I just miss something??
Answer my questions, dammit!!!

I am not convinced that L cleared Light in his mind, I see the tv in chips bag from the monitoring camera, and his left hand moving while in the bag for so long and how he got the names and faces if he didnt look into the bag?
If there are so many cameras I bet L seen this also.

also how that camera went into closed chips bag?

Light, you should make use of Ryuk more with the apple as a bait.

How in the world does that mini TV get inside an unopened new potato chip bag, except if it's can be zipped again. And if he put it inside the chips bag and L doesn't notice that means there's an angle that the camera doesn't record, Light you should tell Ryuk to eat the apple there.

I think L noticed something after that potato chip's scene

Great episode... I agree with one of the other commenters that said with 64 cameras in the room, at least one of them should have been able to pick up that something was going on with that potato chip bag...

Also seems like L still suspects Light, but out of some sort of consideration for Detective Yagami, he's not speaking on his thoughts fully. I don't think he fell for that chip/magazine trick, but only time will tell what he does next...

The first thing that I could question a bit about the show at the time was seeing Light have a mini-TV inside the bag of potato chips for the 2000s era, which was a bit too over the top I have to say. The rest of the episode though was really strong, and seeing this in dub this time around felt satisfying for this episode since I got to experience the potato chip meme in full force.

Light went that far and even used more than yen 38,000 just to make himself not suspicious to the task force. Really smart move!
