“Do you know how to tell a good lie? Sometimes, you have got to mix the truth into it.”
-Commander Pyxis
Episode 12 showed us how the Jaegerists conspired against the Survey Corps and killed Dhalis Zachary with a bomb planted in his chair.
Meanwhile, Eren Jaeger escaped from the prison and went looking for Zeke.
Paradis cannot afford an internal conflict among them in a delicate situation like this, so the Survey Corps have no other option but to go along with Eren’s aggressive strategy.
How much will these reckless moves cost Eldia? Can something as beautiful as freedom be earned in such a cruel way? We bring you the latest episode updates for this anime.
1. Episode 13 Preview and Speculations
The episode 13 is titled “Children of the Forest.” In the preview, Gabi and Falco ask for help from Niccolo. We get a glimpse of that mysterious wine bottle that was seen with him in Episode 11.
I. A Cry for Help
Mr. Blouse will take all the children to Niccolo’s place for dinner. It won’t be hard for Gabi and Falco to identify Niccolo as a Marleyan from his accent and will probably ask for his help to escape.
But as we know, Niccolo is more loyal to Paradis than Marley, atleast after what happened to Sasha. He is burning with revenge, and once he finds out that Gabi killed Sasha, something awful may happen.
II. Zeke and Levi Conversation
After everything that has happened to Paradis for Zeke, Levi cannot put his faith in him.
They will most likely have an intense conversation on the past and future of Paradis and the Eldians, and I am looking forward to it, expecting some exceptional word-plays from either of them.

3. Episode 12 Recap
I. Distrust in the Military Soars Higher
Paradisians are losing faith in the Survey Corps for unjustly detaining Eren Jaeger.
Things are so bad that protests have begun before the Military Head Quarters’ gate, thereby resulting in an environment of distrust and conspiracy among the Paradis forces.
Floch and few others have already shown their loyalty towards Eren, and the situation gets even worse as the higher officials plan to find a new candidate to inherit the Founding Titan.
II. Mikasa and Armin’s Plea
Mikasa and Armin decide to have a talk with Eren before the situation goes out of control. But Eren has been tagged as a criminal who betrayed the Survey Corps, and thus they will have to ask Commander Zachary for explicit permission.
The commander-in-chief turns their proposal down as the situation is too delicate to be talked out. Moreover, he fears that Eren has been controlled by Zeke Jaeger.
III. Suspicious Volunteers
The Marleyan volunteers are being detained on Commander Pyxis’s orders. Onyankopon can’t believe such treatment from Paradis after how much they contributed to the development of railways across its lands.
Meanwhile, Commander Pyxis interrogates Yelena, who admits that she contacted Eren before the Libero attack. However, she says that she met him out of curiosity and didn’t try to provoke him in any way.
IV. Captain Zachary Dies in Bomb Blast
While Mikasa and Armin were discussing the probable reasons for Zachary to turn down their plea, a massive explosion from his room startles everyone.
The Premier’s burning body flies out from the window and lands amidst the protesting citizens.
The official confirms that it is a cold-blooded murder, and a bomb was planted in the Premier’s special chair. The followers of Eren Jaeger or Jaegerists are suspected of this sinister act.
V. Eren Jaeger Escapes
A soldier comes running to the meeting room and informs that Eren has escaped from the prison. The blast acted as a distraction which helped Eren get free.
We get to see Eren with his followers, who are ready to do anything for Paradis’ freedom.
They are heading to the place where his half-brother Zeke has been kept with Captain Levi, and their intention is to bring freedom to Paradis through Rumbling.
Commander Pyxis is the only person left who can lead Paradis in such a situation. He decides to go along with Eren’s reckless plan since Paradis cannot afford an internal conflict right now.
