I liked Riku's speech. A lot of times the public at large has a passive role in the story, but this time they take center stage. The birdcage isn't just some sort of plot device meant to raise tension, it's actually having an effect. The grandma getting up and running at the end was funny. Oda has a thing for making the faces of crying children look incredibly ugly. I think the panel showing Doflamingo embedded in the rock has some symbolism too it, because the last time he was in a pose like that, he and his family had just been exposed as world nobles living among the commoners. And now he had just been exposed as a tyrannical dick. I can wait with bated breath to see Doflamingo in the aftermath.
