8:25 Just as you said, it's simply jealousy. Buccaneer has a plain looking dude as his mechanic. So he is simply jealous of Ed since he has a cute blonde girl as his mechanic who is also an automail nerd, i mean, enthusiast. He is basically saying that Life is not fair.
I have heard that in the manga of this, I didn't look it up but it fits, that Kimbly was on his way to take out the field hospital knowing that the Rockbell's were there, when he attacked Scar.
Yup. He was given orders to assassinate the Rockbells discretely, making it look like they had an unfortunate accident. And Kimblee would have done it without hesitation. It's slightly better that the Rockbells were killed by Scar instead. At least they could be buried, unlike if Kimblee had his way.
@ssjgoku276 Yeesh, that sounds horrid. In a way I'm glad it was Scar, it certainly makes for more of a compelling narrative that they were killed by a moral gray character as opposed to someone like Kimblee
