From this episode, it's quite clear that Lucy is responsible for the holes in Kohta's memories. They had a run in eight years ago which ended in Kohta's father and sister getting killed, and Kohta himself becoming traumatized to the point of repressing the memories.
Where the writers plan to go with this is unclear, as with Kohta and Yuka's relationship. They're cousins. What is it about horror anime and including incest? From where I stand there doesn't seem to be a real story line at all, just a retelling of events which took place in years past. I give the episode 9/10, if for nothing more than Nana came back for no apparent reason.moreless

Kouta: Nyu! Nyu! Where have you been all this time? Ah, that's right. You can't reply even if you hear me. Lucy: (pushes Kouta's hand off of her shoulder) What are you saying? Kouta: When did you remember how to talk again? Yuka: (grabs Kouta's hand) Isn't it weird? Maybe...(Lucy uses her vector to push her away) Ahh! Kouta: Yuka! I told you it was slippery! Yuka: (begins crying) It's not that! It's more like something just suddenly punched me. Kouta: What are you talking about? (begins rubbing Yuka's head) There there. Don't cry. Nyu will laugh at you. Lucy: (has a flashback of a young Kouta and Yuka) Kouta.(walks away) Kouta: Where are you going?! Lucy: I'm going home. I've remembered everything. Kouta: Your memory has returned? Lucy: That's why it's time to go. Kouta: Don't say such nonsense! I know you have no place to go back to! Lucy: A place of my own. I can make it by myself. It has nothing to do with you. Kouta: What the hell are you saying? The 'Maple Inn' is your home now, right? Lucy: Kouta. You really don't... I...don't have any right to be with you!

Bando: (referring to his artificial limbs) This toy, how much can it withstand? Doctor: In terms of weight, it can take 50 kilos. It withstands dissolution and shock well too. (Bando drops medicine to distract doctor, then Bando punches him in the face) Bando: Whoa, better be careful. This thing really is a good toy.

ADD NOTES-
International Airdate: - Denmark: June 10, 2008 on Anime Tv
-
In Japan, marriage between cousins is not illegal, it is just looked down upon.
-
"Herzenswaerme" is German for "Warm Heart"

Another type of Diclonius are the "Silpelit". Silpelits are Diclonius offspring born from carriers, or human parents who become infected with the Diclonius virus. In order to achieve this, the Diclonius only has to pass one of his or her "Vectors" (invisible arms) through the pineal gland of the human. Silpelits have the same powers as that of a normal Diclonius, but unlike other Diclonius, naturally born from non-infected humans, like Lucy, the Silpelits lack reproductive organs and thus cannot procreate children. Without reproducing capabilities, they are often viewed as "worker bees" having no other objective in mind but the drive to kill ordinary humans
