* NotWhatItLooksLike: When Shirou freaks out about the fact that he was, essentially, going out on ''dates'' with [[spoiler:Illya]], Rin and Saber mistakenly assume that he ''knew'' they were dates and that he's freaking out because he didn't know [[spoiler:she was nineteen]]. Of course, Shirou's [[AmbiguousDisorder inability to connect with people and empathize properly]] means that he didn't even realize that [[spoiler:Illya]] considered them dates; he ''thought'' that [[spoiler:he was in an IntergenerationalFriendship]] and misread [[spoiler:Illya]]'s intentions, which then leads to her [[DiggingYourselfDeeper digging him in even deeper]] in an attempt to save him. A ''long'', heated discussion ensues offscreen for ''twenty-four minutes'' before the matter is resolved.

My new Master runs only on instinct. It has no goals, it's just a monster that wants to feed, to hunt and kill the Seven Servants. To face down each one, defeat them, and devour them. That's all it wants to do, and all it wants ''me'' to do. And I can do it however I want, with my so-called Master too mindless to do anything about it but follow me in a frenzy, begging for scraps. I don't have anyone holding me back, Saber. Nobody's [[spoiler:leash]] stopping me from claiming the ultimate battle that I always wanted. \\

Fallen? For the first time in my life, ''I'm free''!
** Illya does this later to [[spoiler:Dark Saber]], pointing out that her rampage is illogical and petty.
