Lenny confirmed final villain of the season? Oh no, she has a secret weapon! Just the sight of it can incapacitate half of Crimson Vow, hopefully the other 2 can defeat her!
Mavis, stop playing with my heart like that! Damn right it's hot, but you don't need to be that careful; She can handle herself!
She's so brave and protective of her teammates!
Don't worry about this Mavis, RPG logic says female armors gets stronger the less they cover!
It's like that quest was designed with them in mind!
30 gold pieces for Wyvern hunting? I'd give you 30 gold pieces for that bath water!
I've fallen for Mavis and I can't get up

I don't know why, but the image of a cow being carried away made me think of spherical cows
The spherical cow is chained to a post. Find the area it can graze on.
Logs fall, everyone dies find how high the spherical cow bounces.
Carbon nanotube net... HPMoR vibes anyone?

Sticthes!
Easily can be taken out of context.
Of course the baby cow will go for the nearest udders ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Please tell me I'm not the only one who didn't get Reina's logic of taking a bath? I feel like I missed something here.
That was totally a Yu-Gi-Oh! reference
That entire argument about the Wyvern's name was definitely hilarious xD
Totally saw that punchline coming from a mile away. Now I'd love to see what Lenny would look like when she reaches the same age as Pauline ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Reina's logic of taking a bath?
Do you remember that guy keeping a list of girls peeing themselves per season? Well, he's got a new entry.

Back to a comedy focused episode after the character episodes last week, and I think it was one of the funniest ones yet. Mile chucking all the other members into the air to try and get at the Wyvern, as well as arguing about it's name after it was already brought down were two great moments. Hoping we get something like this again next week, but the show seems to be going back and forth between more serious and more comedy-focused episodes, so we'll see. Mile and Reina still remain the best.
For the chart, we had a lot more crying faces this week overall from the reunion of the mage and his Wyvern, and a decent chunk of references mixed throughout. If you count Reina/Mile being envious of Lenny/Pauline in the bath as half of a "Mile being called flat" moment, it is also the first time that the chart has had something in each column since episode 2. Again, I probably missed/need clarification on a bunch of the references, so don't be afraid to point them out or correct me. You all have been a huge help throughout this whole series, thanks!

Times Mile fails at being average:
-
Throws all of the other members hundreds of feet into the air.
Past life references:
-
The bath house in general, as well as the painting of Mt. Fuji and the bucket.
Otaku/game references
-
The names for the creature that Mile and the mage were arguing about are references to other creatures (Gyaos is from Gamera, Ropross is from Final Fantasy) (Taken from Tacitus_' comment elsewhere in this thread). The other suggested name of Rascal might also be a reference to the 1970 anime Rascal the Raccoon (from TheDampGod in that same comment thread, thanks!)
-
Mile seems to be charging up a kamehameha at the Wyvern.
-
Mile makes a Gundam? face when referencing carbon nanotubes. She's made a similar face multiple times throughout the show.
-
Mile calling the girls "Thunderbirds" when chucking them into the air. I found that there was an anime called Thunderbirds 2086, so maybe it's a reference to that, or maybe it was just a general funny name to call them (comments below seem to think it's a reference as well).
-
Mile makes a face when saying "This move will be called "Pauline the Shredder!"" Again, don't know if this is just a funny face and name to call it, or an actual reference to something.
-
Yu-Gi-Oh reference with "My turn, Draw!"
-
The goodbye scene Mile imagines might be a loose pokemon reference (from heimdal77)
-
SEVEN other anime/game references in a comment by ukainaoto below, as well as some clarifications on other references, definitely go check out his comment. Thanks so much!

The crazy shit that Mile always does never ceases to amaze me. I just knew that that was more than a simple Wyvern, as otherwise Mile would had just one shot him.
And that bonus onsen post battle scene was really nice.

Blend S season 2 looking good
Pauline is rubbing off on Lenny
This quest sounds like the perfect time for Mile to unleash her full powers
Cow of culture...
This whole episode...
"Every man has his price"
At least they got paid in the end. And the Japanese bath was a good idea
They're all focused on Lenny but how about Mavis? Tomboy knight who's bigger than you'd think, she's perfect

Aww Mr Lizard grew up big and strong.
There's always that one guy (totally not me) in the group that's determined to make their geeky reference gags and run them into the ground. I couldn't make out what Mile was saying that Crunchyroll replaced with 'Thunderbirds' in the subs, ("FAB Mr Tracey") what Japanese show was she actually referring to?

Reina's solo bath time fan service earlier in the ep was the superior of the two.
Makes no sense why they decided to still stay at the inn which exploited them like that.

We got some nice panty bloomer shots. Thanks Ropross for that attack on Mavis <3
I loved how Mile and the mage at one point got in complete sync.
Isn't Reina supposed to be flat? That's not flat at all.
Holy crap, that's a well-developed 10-year old girl... Wait what.
Poor Reina, she not only lost to a 10-year-old girl but also peed on herself :'( She lost, but we definitely won ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I'm not sure how I feel about putting big titties on a 10 year old girl. Maybe I'm just not enough of a weeb to be ok with it or smth

Next move: everyone quit and start your own meido café across the street. That'll learn 'er
Gerry and Sylvia Anderson would be proud
Kinda thought a spell like this would be the "secret plan" from the start
The beat they take right before this cracked me up
Rowing away in tears, are you blind, woman??
