If there’s two Lalahs, does that mean there’s two Chars

That would be cool but at this point I don't think there's any reason to assume that all newtypes from the other universe ended up in this one.

And where (when?) is Shuji?

Statistically speaking he's likely to be either buying or raising funds for more spraypaint.

Pretty sure the Char from last week's episode is one of Gihren's clones. Looks like the Lalah from the Rose is UC Prime Lalah - the cockpit is damaged in the right place, and she's got the psycommu suit on.

GQX Lalah said she kept dreaming about the white suit killing her "red officer" over and over again on "the other side." This makes me wonder if it's either a mistranslation of the Prime UC events, or we're going to see a convergence of multiple timelines:

• Prime: Lalah dies
• "Other side": Char dies
• ???(GQX maybe?): Amuro dies(?) (Side 7 civilians still ended up in the federation army somehow even without the White Base, and Sayla was noted as the one who took down Dozle in her Light Guncannon)
