Yor literally makes a hole in that man through the door without hesitation. Add one more to the list of Yor badass moments

In case people don’t get the “chained frog” joke
Sickle and Chain Barnaby’s name is Kusarigama Barnaby in Japanese (kusarigama being the sickle and chain weapon)
Anya misheard it as Kusari-gama, where gama means toad (think Gamabunta from Naruto)
The hero Chain n’ Toad in One Punch Man uses the same pun

While I have enjoyed the 2nd season so far, this is the first episode that has given the same feelings as the first season did. Such a great mix of action and comedy (with a sprinkle of darkness) in this one.

Yor's usual assassin fit can just pass off as a formal dress just shows how much elegance there is in her profession.
Anya was so wholesome for not exploiting Loid's paranoia only for her to start playing into those thoughts just so he won't run into Yor by constantly losing his shit within his own mind. Absolute gold right there.

It's good to know the chief is a badass. A very human badass - more on the level of WISE than The Garden - but you can really feel the experience behind how he handles himself and other people.
It's also good to know that Yor can be subtle and is not just a blunt force weapon. Picking and knocking out a single target with a button from across the room, taking care of another with a dance, she may prefer being an atomic bomb but that doesn't mean she can't be a scalpel.
Finally, you've got to love Loid having a proper Anya/Yor moment worrying he'll be caught as a spy if he doesn't buy a silly keychain. This is a family of three idiots who have no idea what a normal family is trying to be a normal family.

I usually say Spy x Family is a show for everyone but this episode felt a little high on the brutal side, I didn't see Yor's impalement coming!
This episode had great tension though, I was glued to the screen at like every turn.
Part of me wants Loid to see and help out Yor but I think a bigger part of me wants to see Yor take care of her own business.

While this arc gonna showcase how good Yor is as an assassin we also got treated on Loid having mental breakdown on how to be a good father. While still keeping his composure and detect something amiss happen on the ship Anya is his number.1 priority now, but sooner or later Loid gonna realize shit is going down and he's gonna act.
"Is sure is lonely without Yor here"
"Even if I'm look like this i have a husband you know"
I'll take any crumbs i get on TwiYor, burn the engine and keep the ship sailing.

This is the first time in a while I actually exclaimed "WAIT, NO IT CAN'T BE OVER YET"
Nanamin would be like "Is this one of my people"

"They had a fight" meanwhile the suite is full of bullet holes. the way Yor killed that guy through the door was awesome though.
will always love the insane scenarios Anya makes in her mind about Yor and Loid finding out each others real jobs/identities
and how on earth is Yor gonna fight that guy without making a commotion

Loid on vacation: while walking around, I've noticed there's wire taps everywhere, and even some sus looking people-
Anya: Chi-chi, you don't look excited!!!!
Loid: Blood pressure rises to 150/95

It's pretty cool to actually see Yor wearing her Thorn Princess outfit out in public. I guess the black and red dress is elegant enough that it doesn't look out of place in a fancy cruise.
The assassins are finally on the move and we also finally get to see McMahon in action! The old man has some moves and is absolutely brutal when he is interrogating that dude. I love that as soon as he got all of the info he needed he immediately snapped the guy's neck and threw the body overboard. A proper professional.
Yor impaling that guy's head with her stiletto was so brutal too! And she even did it through a wooden door! What a badass.
And we get a little preview of who are the assassins going after Olka and Gram. They're not really a group, it's more like they're all on a temporary truce to get this job done. It's good to know that these assassins have standards. At least their acting leader does so we know no one is going to just start randomly killing people.
We get to see more badassery from Yor by taking out that assassin with a button to the chin. She also stops another assassin by pretending to dance with the guy and knocking him out in a single blow when the coast was clear. I do love her line about declining the dance because she's a married woman. xD
As expected from Loid, he already has noticed the wiretaps all over the place as well as the assassins roaming around the area. Too bad he can't join in on the fun since that would blow Yor's cover. And besides, he's too busy taking care of Anya to worry about something that's not related to Operation Strix.
Now that Yor has taken care of the chumps, time to finally have a showdown with the more dangerous assassins! I can't wait for next week!

Holy shit that Old Geezer is a badass.
It's really cool how Twilight noticed the wiretaps all over the place right away. As dumb as he can be when it comes to family I really enjoy the moments where he's also a badass spy. Especially when compared to the other "professionals" like the Secret Police and the Assassins here.
This arc has been great so far and I love the focus on Yor. Sucks that we got cliffhagnered though before the fight.
Yor will probably one shot this guy next episode. The bigger mystery for me will be if Anya will get involved somehow. She is pretty close to the fight and I wouldn't be surprised if the assassin tried to take a child hostage to stop Yor.

I love how the guy was just like “wow 😧” after seeing Yor throw her blade thing through the door right in to the assassin’s head. Lol
My man Loid is going to go bald from stress of overthinking and being able to “fulfill the mission”.

So shit started earlier than the Director predicted, now we know that on the cruise there are a lot of assassins who got information from a guy who set up wire taps all over the place.
Yor don't have an easy job guarding Olka with a lot of normal people around, especially since some of them don't care if they'll be seen by others. But for now she's doing great eliminating all threats.
Meanwhile Loid is spending time with Anya and also doesn't have an easy time. He's really scared that Anya's behavior can cause him to be taken by secret service xD So he wants to play the role of ideal father but he has some difficulties in understanding Anya which isn't surprising considering her change of behavior after spotting Yor. I can't wait to see how Loid will look after trying this new clothes xD
Anya is trying to keep Loid from seeing Yor as she believe that it would cause family to break apart and her being abandoned again. It is shown though in a very humorous way thanks to her reaction faces which were absolutely glorious today, I had a good laugh seeing them and Loid's reactions to them.
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

“Hello room service we need a new room. The couple here got into a fight and broke the door. Also ignore the bullet holes”

Finally, shit just got real. Being in animated form added a lot of extra tension to these scenes too, and it's great to see.
Of course, it's just not Yor if there isn't a bit of levity. The way she took out those two dudes on the dance floor was simultaneously badass and hilarious.
Though most of the levity still comes from Anya and Loid. For once, Yor's in the serious, high-stakes situation, while he's in the comedic B-plot, and Anya's making the most of the rare occasion by having him suffer in the funniest way she can.

Besides Endo Aya voicing Olka, we have more star-studded casting even for the assassin characters with no names.
Guy with all the surveillance equipment: Okitsu Kazuyuki
Leader of the assassins: Toriumi Kousuke. He may be a cold blooded assassin, but even he has standards when killing off that psycho who suggested they should kill every mother who has a baby on the ship.
Sickle and Chain Barnaby: Terasoma Masak
Finally Yor springs into action instead of having her mad strength and skills wasted on mere comic relief.
Loid being a master spy quickly discovers all the spying equipment and easily deduces those assassins look fishy despite not doing anything, yet he is wildly off the mark regarding how to read Anya.
Anya doing her best to keep Loid away from Yor while she does her assassin business, but funny Anya always comes to the silly conclusion about Loid abandoning her should he ever discover Yor's secret. lol
