If he was trying to send packets outside of these direct connected networks then he would need a default route, I agree. As to the firewall, he's set all of everything to ACCEPT in all cases at this point so traffic "should just flow" (I hate saying "should just" 'cause whenever I say it, it doesn't)..(might as well just turn off the firewall software actually during this testing...that would take one piece of the puzzle completely out of play).
