Wait a minute!

Okay, as Benoit's script site has brought to my attention...this was seen in the picture area for ep. 1 ending...there was the one of Rico in front of Tyrell and Irene. Does this mean Rico survived!!! Because that is the Principal Office of Pioneer 2!

Episode II seems to imply that she didn't survive. It is mentioned that the people are awaiting the return of their heroes, Rico and Flowen.<br>You can see her spirit when you beat Dark Falz with a Dark weapon, which seems to be more evidence.<p>The general opinion says that she said goodbye to her father. It's probably right.
