Once loving the food comment from the the great cat.

Interesting mote lore on panzer kunst
Spoiler:
The five disciples were revealed and schneider is not called mozer anymore and different from the temple idea in the ps1 game as well.
Looking forward to second half.

Kudos and adulation's oh benevolent cat god 🙏

Considering that my predictions and conspiracy theories are pretty much always completely off mark this is probably not whats going to happen, but, the whole food thing + Erica discarding her flesh body + teddy bear scene makes me think that:
1. Erica is going to lace her body with crysta mortem.
2. Erica is going to hug the tedy bear without letting it go so that it will stay with her body when it gets interred into the Katakomben.
3. Keun is going to be given responsibility for handling Erica's body and will discover a weapon and a pen inside the teddy bear.
4. Tariq and the rest of the Hexenhaus will consume Erica's body.
5. Keun will get discovered while trying to open the external gate.
6. Tariq will confiscate the pen and conclude that it must be a signaling device Keun is supposed to use once he unlocked the external gate.
7. Tariq and the rest of the Hexenhaus will prepare an ambush at the external gate.
8. Tariq will activate the pen...

Meanwhile while Erica will be unconscious from cyborg surgery, Tariq will send agents to dispose of her due to her being a collaborator of Keun and Yoko will do Yoko coolness and defend her defeating Tariq's agents.

Edit:

Thinking about it some more, Yoko's role being limited to defending comatose Erika would be somewhat lame, and Tariq being offed by crysta mortem would also be a bit dramatically off.
Instead maybe Yoko would be sent with Bjorn as the (disposable and deniable) support team.
Bjorn would have to deal with some other Hexenhaus that would not be taken out by the crysta mortem.
So Yoko and (goofed down) Keun will have a climatic battle with Tariq.

Wow, some lore! Nice. I made me think of something, back in the day on Gunnm volume 4, 1995-ish there were this page:

Gally was amnesic, and after a fight in a rollerball race she got knocked-out and remembered for the first time Mars, I think it's the first picture of Mars we got to see as well. For a long moment I thought I would like to know more about the lore of Mars and how they settled there in that story. And here we are, 30 years later. Omg I'm old :cry:
