And all this, without forgetting the scant possibility that he has managed to get into what the boat is towing.

PS: I have a theory as to why Zeke hasn't appeared yet. We still don't really know all that it takes for founder Ymir to side with Eren, but perhaps he (thinks that he) needs to be with Zeke indefinitely to continue to control the founding titan, so Zeke could be found imprisoned inside the giant titan founder of Eren, where Eren would mutilate him from time to time to prevent him from transforming into the beast titan. I agree with you there about Flochs' arm and him still alive. It is because something telling me that when the Survey Corp reuturns, they will get a nasty surprise from Paradisians. And, it will not be a friendly or heroes welcome back home.

Your theory about Zeke Yeager does sounds like a possibility. There are parts of me believing in that theory with Eren still needing his big half-brother to keep the connection as well. I also believe in the possibility that Eren Yeager has already got full access to Ymir, and is no longer in need of Zeke anymore. Not to mention that I also believe the massive titan is actually Zeke Yeager himself. Believing that Eren Yeager transformed Zeke into that titan and to be used as bait towards leading the Survey Corp/Warrior alliance away from him.
