i suppose that may be what the end of ep 6 was intended as. sort of a "if you haven't figured it out by now, here's the final key you need"

because if you follow through the thinking of how there can be only 16 and get to the answer i did, then it all fits in to place. at least, the who and the why (sort of), not the how.

though this flashback is massively expanding on the "Why", it is still still essentially because "being a young servant was a rough life and so they bullied people because they were bullied", which is what i'd have imagined a motive would be like anyway
