Not to worry at all! It's a great review on the whole and we're all reflecting on this and that. Speaking of Ryūken and Katagiri, it did look like he changed his mind about not returning home pretty fast after seeing her cry. Anyway, what he said to her about not being good enough to lead the Quincy (since he couldn't protect Masaki), is probably a part of the explanation why he later appears the way he does to his son - estranged from Quincy traditions.
