I feel like its gonna play into the crew actually having a reason to rescue him after he inevitably gets kidnapped as his strong moral core prevents him from actually selling out the crew and CMP.

If they all have a strong reason to see his worth to the crew, the rest of them may actually want to rescue him when he gets in more trouble than he already is.

Also I'm like. 90 percent sure the Ruby7 is gonna save Buddy because its already

Manufactured a second Eye of Jupiter Bomb

Anyway the Heart of it All I hope is referring to Ruby being a critical part of the team, Buddy's love for her team, her heart and however they fix that, and Nureyev fully coming into the family as a key player and as they all grow to really, truly, all care and trust for each other so that there will be that much more pain as Nureyev has to face whatever his debtors have in store
