Once she got to her ship and the guy let her in we knew she'd be in the suit. I'm not sure how much more they could have shown without it getting tedious. I did crack up at the idea of how overly convenient it was that the guy was thoughtful enough to bring her suit along. It couldn't have been easy for him to get it from the Intel people that were going over it and getting it packed on board before they were off. With that kind of planning I wonder how well he'd do weddings. If anything I would have expected her to grab a gun and have a real fight, but hey, if they wanted her to have the magic suit, it worked out..
Honestly to me, the only overly convenient part wasn't that the suit was brought along, it's that the suit was able to be deployed at precisely the time it mattered most, saving Avasarala's life. That he brought it along actually was perfect and smart. Remember his background and his role as bodyguard, enforcer, and spy; thinking along those lines, bringing the suit, if he could get it, was the obvious decision. Just in case. In that role of his, you always pack the best tools for the task. Walking in to a trap? Bring a mech suit! lol
I thought the look he had on his face said it all. It was like, duh, why wouldn't I have brought it? A well played scene all around IMHO. But yeah, it was just the perfect timing part that I found annoying, her having brought it back just in time. Not that it's bad, but, just a classic and oft-used trope in fiction.
