Amuro's meeting with Lt. Matilda Ajan gave me a couple realizations.
Between a messy bedroom, being an anti-social genius, a strained paternal relationship, and now a fondness for redheads, Miorine Rembran is never ever beating the Amuro Ray allegations^. If these two ever meet in a crossover, any attempts at friendship will entirely depend on whether either is feeling a bout of self-loathing at the time.
I was also reminded that, it is a good idea to double-check conventional fan wisdom, because I have been informed several times in good faith that the Newtype space magic that Gundam's become famous for came out of left field in the original, but this scene seems to contradict with straightforward foreshadowing: Amuro's not denying the existence of espers here, only the possibility that he might be one, thus implying that there is probability that they exist in this setting (and since esper is a reasonably common term in Japanese science fiction in general, it makes sense that the audience would be expected to understand this without explanation or disbelief).
In addition, Amuro's denial feels like a callback to the conversation between Char and his lieutenant, Dren, in episode 01, where Dren is not denying that the Federation might be developing more advanced mobile suits, but merely expressing his disbelief that they would be doing so in this particular location.
And since Dren was proven wrong earlier, this gives precedent for the audience to consider, well, what if Amuro is wrong too? What if he is a psychic like Matilda says?
I don't know yet if the show offers any foreshadowing beyond that, but between this scene and genre conventions, I don't think bringing psychic stuff later into this story is as unreasonable as I've seen some people claim.
^With one notable difference being that her love life goes in a much happier direction than poor Amuro's.
