I agree with most people that Shirley's death was sad. I feel bad for Lelouch now, and he will probably blame Suzaku for her death. I bet he will get mad with power and destroy everything.
I think from here on out it will be just chaos and epicness.
Now I get why they did episode 12. To give a little more air time for Shirley V_V
Shirley dies. I was really expecting another dramatic confrontation between her and Lelouch, but not this. It's just too sad.
Rolo must die.

Ok, well I finally got around to watching 13, and I have to say that although it was sad, I think reading all those spoilers before hand ruined it for me in the sense that I wasn't really shocked by what happened, though it was a dramatic event.
However, to all the Rolo-haters, stop and reconsider what you're saying.
Spoiler :
1)Why didn't they show us the scene where Shirley is killed?
2)Why didn't he take the gun away and put it in Shirley's hands? Isn't it something normal to do as in for killing?
3)He knows that Lelouch is somewhere near, but why didn't he take care of the corpse?
4)If it's because that Shirley liked Lelouch so that Rolo killed him, shouldn't Shirley be killed in the second episode?
5)He knows that how important Shirley is to Lelouch, knowing that if he killed him, Lelouch will hate him, but why did he still do it?
6)Shirley said she was going to help Lelouch, but after she mentioned Nunally, Rolo went raepface and killed her, don't you think that doesn't suit his character?
7)When Rolo was talking to Shirley, Shirley says some keywords then Rolo changed, it wasn't a hate expression, but more like a shocked expression, not his raepface killing expression.
8)When Shirley mentioned Nunally, Rolo used his Geass, he took a sudden deep breath, then he used Geass, it isn't due to Nunally.
9)When Nunally was mentioned, there's a small time lag, just like Rolo used his geass for something else... perhaps... somebody was walking up to Shirley from behind.
10)If Rolo really wanted to kill Shirley, why did he use Geass? He's a skilled assassin, and Shirley is just a normal girl, it wouldn't take much effort to kill her.
I got that off /a/ and while some questions are quite stupid, others seem fairly valid, and example being, why did they skip the scene? Just by doing that they've created so many alternative possibilities for what could have happened.
That being said, I still hope Rolo dies a long, slow and painful death.
I'm pretty sure Lelouch won't blame Suzaku for Shirley's death. I mean why would he save her life and then turn around and kill her 30 minutes later? IF he's going to blame him for anything, it would probably be his failing to protect her like he(lelouch) hoped he(Suzaku) would.

It's pretty likely that you're right. It's pretty much a rule that if you didn't directly see it happen (like you would've with Lelouch and Euphie, for example), it probably didn't happen. Especially if it involves death. Certainly Orange-kun and Cornelia are ample proof to that now
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…
