Why the episode is dialogue heavy, there were a few action scenes. Most notable was when the guy with the red, white, and blue band attacked him. My first question is why did Tatsuya not chase after him? Tatsuya was shown able to use magic to "run" to school with Miyuki.
The next question is why are the bands red, white, and blue? It screams that a country is behind it with national colors like that. The most notable countries, off the top of my head, with those colors are France and of course, the United States of America. I'm wondering if the USA is behind Blanche in this story.

According to Tatsuya's reasoning the true purpose of Blanche is not that. The Blanche leaders according to him know about the flaws in their equality argument (at least that's what Tatsuya says) and their true purpose is to weaken Japan. Then when Tatsuya asks Miyuki who profits of the country's weakening the frame shifts to the map where another country is highlighted in red while Miyuki replies that somebody is supporting them.

None of the EU part is spoilers, given the map shown at the beginning of the series.

"Who then benefits from the weakening of this country?" "Are they ... perhaps supported by...."

So it looks like it might be up to Tatsuya's group, at least to some degree, to take on the Course 2 students who are dissatisfied with the "status quo" and how the "Blooms" treat them. That would explain why Erika is fighting Mibu in the opening.
Though I wonder how, with all this talk about Blanche/Egalite and the possible uprising by some Course 2 students, the guy from the opening facing off against Tatsuya factors into things? I certainly wasn't expecting Mari to have a boyfriend, and it was cute seeing her defend his honor against Tatsuya. Hoping to see her together with Shu soon . If I'm understanding things correctly, the "numbers" that Tatsuya's gone on about relates to the most prestigious of the magic families, and the Shiba siblings actually being Yotsuba's means they're a part of that? The Shiba siblings sure like to milk their "close" relationship for all it's worth and possible implications .

Only trying to head off the people that will decide that everyone else at the school is an idiot for not noticing it if it was as direct as you had said. The name doesn't scream hey look we are Yotsuba. It's like having a character called Low Key that is an inmate at a prison turning out to be Loki, right in front of your face but easy to miss.
