Despite Batou's two grave mistakes (getting all emotional in the midst of an operation and not reporting his discovery to the rest of the squad - what is this, a Section 9 member playing the Lone Rider all of a sudden!?) this could still have been a decent episode if it weren't completely based upon some extreme coincidence (why would that girl be able to sense Batou, and why would that very same girl have to be related to the man they're looking for?), none of which is ever explained. Kusanagi acts great, knowing the weaknesses of her subordinate (she should report Batou as unfit for service after this operation if you ask me) - yet it's a mere filler episode with a weak, implausible story and no apparent correlation with the main plot.
