* TurningBackHuman: Discussed. When Gabi learns that Connie intends on turning his mom back into human by feeding Falco to her, she begs Armin to ask Eren if he can turn Connie's mother into a human again so Falco doesn't have to die. Armin and the others, however, don't seem to believe this is possible, as Eren didn't turn any of the Titanized military personnel back.

With the power Eren now wields, it's obvious that he could do this. It's also obvious why Eren isn't interested in doing Gabi a favor.

* CerebusCallBack: Jean, Connie, Armin and Mikasa remember their conversation with Eren in which he tells them and Sasha that he didn't want any one of them to inherit his titans because he didn't want any of them to die in 13 years, and a flashback where Eren tells them they are important to him is shown. Their reasoning that Eren's motivation to do the Rumbling is to protect the important people in his life is all but implied.
