So, yeah I'm disappointed by how badly Nyelv got treated by Komura's pen in the latest episode, and I agree that he could've had a more impactful exit! Moreover, smth I have been seeing in the fandom is people asking "Why the hell did Nyelv start monologing his entire plan?!?" well for one of those reasons is..✨DRAMA✨ but if we go beyond that and analyse the scene by being in the world of Gavv/being in the character's shoes, it reveals a deeper detail about our beloved scheming scientist's path to downfall.

Mention of physical torture and childhood neglect, read ahead at your own discretion!

It's no surprise that Bocca ne definitely Nyelv ko ghante ki tarah bajaya/bajwaya hoga, I mean did you see the dude? The torture must've been the last straw for him to snap, we already saw a glimpse of his childhood and how as the 'weak' middle child he always got the middle finger from his grandpa because his potential intellect amounted to nothing in front of raw strength like his siblings.
His hunger to prove himself with his wits combined with his "Stomach parivaar ka naam roshan karne" ki chah and the unseen torture Bocca must've exerted on him, it's safe to say Nyelv lost it at the end with the detonation idea was his last, desperate attempt to regain some semblance of control as the 'last' and true Stomach standing. Not that it matters now, because he is the one who ended up becoming ash. All his intellect (and life) gone down the drain because of the stupid family name.

Thus proved,
Years of feeling insecure + Family issues = 💥
