Introducing the Fifth Sin:

This is Gowther, the "Goat Sin of Lust". And in a very strange bunch, he raises the strangeness bar.

Gowther is autistic. In many people stricken with autism it's coupled with other forms of mental retardation, but that's not invariably the case. Some autistic people are actually very smart, and he seems to be one such. He's also absurdly powerful; he doesn't give anything away to any of the others in that regard.

But he has absolutely no ability to understand what other people are thinking or feeling. He's aware of the lack, but can't do anything about it.

UPDATE: There was also some back story about Meliodas, and a big hint that Meliodas might be Elizabeth's father. We already knew that Elizabeth was adopted by the king, and in this episode we learned a lot about a now-deceased woman who probably was Elizabeth's mother.
