In episode 2, there's a scene with Utsu-tsu cleaning the Tachikawa City
International Greenery Garden where she volunteers. However, the scene is a
bit strange, as it shows two of her in the same shot:

As far as I can tell, both of the people in the shot are Utsu-tsu. She's also
in the two shots before this one, and doesn't seem to move between them, so
there could be more than two of her.

**Why are there two Utsu-tsus here? Is she able to double her body, or does
she have clones, or are they imposters, or something else?**

Why are there two Utsu-tsus?


In episode 4, it is revealed that Utsu-tsu has the ability to create copies of
her body as one of her powers as a Gatchaman. It seems there are other
modifications to her body as well, though these have not yet been completely
explained. Her copying ability allows her to perform basic functions, but it
seems that conversing and interacting with others is difficult through the
copies. She uses this ability to simultaneously follow Hajime and O.D.

Here's a gif of her making a copy:

It's probably worth a mention that the opening theme actually foreshadowed
this before the scene in the question:
