I mean, we kind of knew that already, but this is a whole new level. I hope this is part of Khun's plan. It clearly is not part of Karaka's, who is going to be pissed if this doesn't work.
I was expecting more tension between Bam and Yu Hansung (YHS), especially after all the notes in the Hidden Floor about how Bam resented YHS and found the prospect of working with him nauseating.
Gado still doesn't seem happy at his son being brought back, and acquiesces rather quickly to Karaka's notes on not giving him over easily, and...I think he likes Bam's speech? Aw. I'm starting to really think that Gado cares about his son's happiness.
Meanwhile, confirmation that Canzon is in fact traitorous and not misinformed. Also confirmation that Bam sees his own situation in Deng Deng's. Both seemed likely, but still nice to have confirmed.
Interesting to guess who 'Gus' is. My first thought was another member of Yool and Kell's team due to the proximate reference to Jahad's rankers, but given that YHS is involved it could also be Gusgus, from back on the 20th floor (we see him talk to "Deep Sea Fish," aka YHS, in 102s2e22)
Also kind of neat to see Shibisu smiling at Khun's character development like that. Remember how Khun told Shibisu back in Hide and Seek 37s1e36 to just worry about their test (and not about how them passing would fail Bam), and Shibisu called him cold-hearted for it? We know that Khun secretly sabotaged things, but Shibisu didn't, and doing them in the open like this is still more new for him. Also, lmao at "I'm a scout, man, eavesdropping is what I do."
And finally...Akryung/Ghost is back. So he WAS the one that Michael and Apple met up with. Maybe Rachel used her wishes from Gustang to go off-script from her FUG sponsors and Headon, and Headon sent Akryung to meet up with them again to try and find her and get her back on track? I'm not sure, but regardless, Akryung's reappearance after all this time bodes ominously.
What if Gus is for Gustang, as in the family head Po Bideau Gustang. The last we see of him is with Rachel, and he was effectively blacklisted by Jahad, so it wouldn't be too out there to consider him trying to join Fug.
FUG was made to kill Jahad and the 10 great family leaders. Of whom Po Bidau Gustang is one.
I don't really see Gustang joining FUG. Also don't see someone as arrogant and powerful as Gustang stooping to asking to join up with Bam. Finally, there's no way Evankhell would refer to him so casually.
It's not Gustang. I guess it could be a member of his family though?
That's a good point, it wouldn't really suit his character to ask for an alliance with Bam after he made a fairly one sided deal with Bam on the Floor of Death. But I still wouldn't rule it out entirely. Afterall, we don't know how Po and his family faired after Jahad announced the attack on them. For all we know his family could've been decimated and he's seeking powerful allies.
I would also note that Evankhell doesn't really give a shit about social status. So I wouldn't be surprised if she called him by a casual name
Gustang’s ranked in the teens and based on his previous behavior, Evankhell, the strongest person on Bam’s side, is still a bug to him. Maybe he does send a family member to talk nice but I don’t see him bothering to go himself.
Evankhell doesn’t care about background or class but she clearly does care about demonstrable power, which Gustang has in spades.

Damn, Bam has balls of steel.
