Speaking of weird mental disorders, some people suffer from a strange kind of cognitive dissonance... thing after losing their vision/hearing or the ability to move one of their limbs. I think can happen after a stroke or some other type of damage to the brain.

Basically, they cannot see/hear/move their arm/whatever, but they don't realize it. Their brains don't know that there is something wrong. When asked "how many fingers am I holding up", told to repeat a word or told to point at something with their paralyzed hand, they will say "ok" and then proceed to... do nothing or just randomly guess the answer.

When asked why they didn't move their hand or why they failed to answer correctly, they will come up with excuses like "oh, I just didn't feel like it", "I heard it wrong" or "I couldn't see it well without my glasses". It's weird as fuck. They don't realize that they are just making shit up. Their brains have no idea that their vision or whatever doesn't work, so it comes up with ridiculous excuses to explain why they failed. And the person genuinely believes it.

This always confused me, but had Lambda solved Beato's game by the EP 4 secret tea party? She uses red, and shouldn't be able to unless she understands the mysteries of the game, right? Or were those reds from earlier in the game stated by Beato that she was reintroducing? She also become game master in the next episode, which also requires understanding all the mysteries like Battler did at the end of the episode.
