I'm rewatching the anime again and I just noticed in Episode 16 that when Jean tells Eren that Marco is dead, we see the reactions of Eren and a few of the others in the 104th but Reiner and Bertolt are out of frame. It's a subtle detail but I wonder if the director already knew back then that Reiner, Bertolt, and Annie were involved in his death.

Now that we all know they are traitors, keeping an eye out for subtle things revolving around Reinber, Bertolt, and Annie is a bit of a 'sub-hobby' of mine.

LOL, I also rewatched that episode a few days ago and noticed the same thing. Stop reading my mind. e_e

I don't think they needed to know the exact circumstances of Marco's death. Everybody knew that he had been killed by a Titan, and since the invasion was caused by Bertolt (and the other two in complicity), they would have been responsible for Marco's death even if they wouldn't have been more directly involved as we recently found out.
