You know, I've always thought that both Kryten and even Cat secretly knew all along. I just... Fits. (Yes, I've got bunnies. I've got bunnies and WIP's coming out of my friggin' ears, man! *sigh, mumbles something about home exam*)
Yes, it certainly would be a little odd, in their eyes, to have a little coffin for Arn that they follow to a pink planet with a lot of other coffins...
I can see it going either way. Kryten would certainly think that something is amiss, I think, but then again, he's somewhat inclined to believe anything Lister tells him. Since we know from Rimmerworld that Cat can smell the difference between a human and a hard-light hologram, he'd know the Ace who visited in SMAC was a hard-light hologram, but I dunno if he'd really care enough to go anywhere with that later. He just wants to know where to get a good 'do. :)
However, I do think that Kryten knows the truth by the time Blue rolls around - after all, if Mister Rimmer really is dead and gone, he has no reason to be so insistent about bringing Lister around to hating him again...
