What happens in the Episode 11 of Attack on Titan Season 3?
The 11th episode of Attack on Titan Season 3 delves into the relationship between Grisha Yaeger and Keith Sadies. The latter was the former commander of the Scout Regiment and the commandant of the 104th Cadet Corps. Grisha met him outside the enclosure of the walls without having any prior track of his memory. The two bonded and became good friends.
Keith also served as the wingman in getting Eren’s parents together and supported him to become a doctor inside the walls. After realizing that his wife, Carla Yaeger, was dead, he took Eren to the woods, injected him with the Titan serum, and let him eat him to obtain the power of the Founding Titan. The Commandant told Carla before the Survey Corps left Keith’s place about being considered a remarkable human being. This is one of the reasons that fueled Eren’s motivations to save humanity and let them freely explore the outside world.
