2 minutes and 30 seconds recap just after two episodes is an interesting choice, though I had an impression that in this case it was necessary for the story's progression. I don't mind it, since I've been enjoying this season a lot, but I hope recaps won't become a frequent occasion.
Ciel reliving his trauma was painful to watch. The contrast with the previous light-hearted episode is shocking, but not surprising, as we've already seen the signs of something ominous creeping in. I love how masterfully Kuroshitsuji oscillates between humorous and tragic moments.

I've also thought about this possibility, but it weirds me out that Urino became so bold with Osanai right after Hiya told him to be assertive with her. Before their conversation Urino was intuitively cautious enough to not overstep her boundaries.
Sometimes I think Hiya's too suspicious to be such an obvious suspect, which is kind of suspicious in itself. Maybe not all of the arson cases were done by the same person. The first fires could have been a coincidence used as a cover-up to burn the van, and it would be easier to find some kind of pattern between just a few cases and deem it serial arson, like Urino did. Or someone tested the waters with those fires, Urino took the bait, and they decided it was safe to burn the van so no one thinks it was the initial target. Anyway, I hope Kobato solves the case soon enough, so my brain stops with all these theories.
