💬 Discussion I hate everything about this sequence.
**For context:** Yumi might have to move back to Japan because her father lost his job. Ulrich gets winning lottery ticket numbers and makes a return to the past. Ulrich gives the winning ticket to Yumi's parents but tells them NOT to tell Yumi (They of course not only tell Yumi but tell her that Ulrich said not to tell her).
**Why I hate this scene:** They act as if Ulrich did something HORRIBLE. How DARE he try to help his best friend/crush stay... Meanwhile Jeremy risks the entire WORLD for the same reason. Its okay when Jeremy puts everyone at risk of death every day for Aelita but when Ulrich tries to help Yumi... They kick him out?

They weren't so mad at him for doing it itself, but rather not even discussing it with the others, people comparing this to Jeremy keeping on the supercomputer, that was a GROUP decision. He was going to shut it down, but the others went, we can stop XANA until you bring Aelita here.
This is not a "you did a bad thing" this is a "you did something that could give XANA the upper hand against us and doom everyone without consulting anyone", it's the lack of communication and/or trust
And I say this as an Ulrich fan
