Look at your videos again. At 8:07AM PDT (about 17 minutes after hatch opening), you can see on the video the ARISSat-1.

The 2M whippy antenna on the right/top of ARISSat-1.

Is that the 440 antenna - bent - on the left/bottom of the satellite?

Pretty sure that is the tether. It's white and long, and the whip should be gold from the Kapton tape.
