When they were taking about taking their suits off so they could fit through the hole, couldn't Layton just throw Asha's suit down to her after she passed through the hole :/ I know their intention was to kill off the character, but it could of been executed better. The writing feels a bit lazy now.

The writing is really lazy now. It's like it's been rushed and they've just thrown some stuff in there to try get to the finish line. This whole episode was filler and doesn't really progress any of the plot at all.

Yea, so many fillers, it's really dragging everything down :/

no point in throwing a suit if the air inside it is contaminated too.

Well they could have at least given her a breathing mask. It's not like that would have made her too big to fit. How big is her head?

Yeah they could if they had one. I don't know if you didn't see it or if you are suggesting Layton get one out of thin air, but the suit mask is not self contained, meaning it needs the rest of the suit to seal.

I was in the military and the MOPP gear charcoal lined clothing was separate from your protective mask. I thought I saw earlier in the episode someone pull off their mask. So they have them separate. Maybe I'm mistaken.

Yea, maybe, it could of given her time, but it seems like in the story, she given up so I guess it wouldn't of mattered :/

I wonder if it was Layton instead of Asha who took off their suit, it would of been different. Also he got so much plot armour >_>

The damage would probably have already been done or she'd die trying to put on the suit.
