1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,760
Gotta talk fast, gotta talk 
fast. 

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,440
Gotta talk faster, faster, 
faster. 

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:10,640
Gotta talk fast. 
Welcome to an oral review of 

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,520
Archie Comics Sonic the 
Hedgehog, reminding you that if 

5
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,520
you opposed the despostic, what 
despotic? 

6
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,720
How do you say that word? 
Did I spell the wrong despotic? 

7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,120
D Despotic, all right? 
No, that's probably right. 

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,400
You cut out when you were saying
it so I couldn't hear you. 

9
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,560
Do you know what a despot is? 
No. 

10
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,400
OK, despot is like a dictator or
an absolute ruler. 

11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:39,400
A king so despotic means one who
so just a dictator, Yeah. 

12
00:00:40,160 --> 00:00:43,760
OK, Do we want to, do we want to
restart that or do we just want 

13
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,200
to keep that in for the people 
who don't know what that word 

14
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,960
means? 
I'm learning things today, man. 

15
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,760
That's what this, that's what 
this podcast is about. 

16
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,360
It's about learning. 
Nick, Nick, you are my ear to 

17
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,840
the ground, so you go right on 
ahead. 

18
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,720
I'm going to start over, but we 
can keep this whole fumble in. 

19
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,480
Got it. 
Welcome to an OR. 

20
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,320
I guess we got an answer to you 
if he got worse or not. 

21
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,880
I haven't I've been working. 
He's been. 

22
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:22,240
Working for three weeks. 
Straight like it's been bad. 

23
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,240
Yeah, I I drove. 
Away from home. 

24
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,280
Yeah, and got back. 
I wrote this and yeah, we're 

25
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,280
good to go, we're good to go. 
I'm good to go. 

26
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,480
Let me make this so it's not 
cutting off my head. 

27
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,920
All right. 
Welcome to an oral review of 

28
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,200
Archie comic Sonic the Hedgehog,
reminding you that if you oppose

29
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:45,080
the despostic regime of Saudi 
Arabia and want the United 

30
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,880
States to stop supporting it, 
then you must fight car culture 

31
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,280
and support urbanism. 
According to the US Energy 

32
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,480
Information Administration, 
America consumes more than 20 

33
00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:01,360
million barrels of oil per day. 
43% of that 20 million goes to 

34
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,360
gasoline alone. 
Avenge the following New York 

35
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,320
firefighters by supporting high 
density zoning, high speed rail,

36
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,040
and thinner highways. 
Granted, the US only imports 5% 

37
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,720
of its petroleum from Saudi 
Arabia, whereas the US imports 

38
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,640
52% from Canada. 
But if you ever want to oppose 

39
00:02:21,640 --> 00:02:26,560
both the House and Saud, Saud, 
House of Saud. 

40
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,480
Interesting. 
'Cause it's 'cause it's just 

41
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:33,400
Arabia, it's just Arabia and 
then the ultra mega wealthy 

42
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,480
House of Saud makes it Saudi 
Arabia. 

43
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,680
I legitimately did not know 
that. 

44
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:46,120
Yeah. 
Interesting I'm I I do I just I 

45
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,120
just I just watch movies and I 
listen to that's my thing dude, 

46
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,400
that's. 
Kind of like what this is. 

47
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:58,120
I just, I just know about Sonic 
the Hedgehog really well, I 

48
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,760
guess the I'm learning that's 
what the podcast is about. 

49
00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:05,760
But if you ever want to oppose 
both the House of Sod and Justin

50
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,680
Trudeau, tell the NIMBY's you 
never forget that faithful 

51
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,440
September morning. 
You never forgot that freedom 

52
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,560
isn't free, it's the cost of 
your train fare. 

53
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,920
I'm Nick, except for this intro.
I wrote the script. 

54
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,360
And I'm Dominic and except for 
this very outdated intro because

55
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:22,880
Justin Trudeau is no longer I 
was gonna. 

56
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:27,800
Say that I may not be the most 
up to date with current events, 

57
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,240
but I do know that Justin 
Trudeau is no longer. 

58
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,960
I am very curious to see he so 
it's different Prime Minister, 

59
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,080
but same political party until 
they call an election or the 

60
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,520
mandatory election the mandated 
election on in October. 

61
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,120
I think in Canada, because 
Canada uses a Westminster system

62
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,040
because of their British yeah 
exactly. 

63
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,160
They're they're common 
Commonwealth heritage. 

64
00:03:55,600 --> 00:04:00,280
So they so we'll, we'll see 
because they were before the 

65
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,320
Trump situation, before Trump, 
they were just slated to get 

66
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,840
pounded into the dirt, the 
liberals, which is like slightly

67
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,800
more left Democratic Party, but 
not too much. 

68
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:17,920
But now with the term situation.
About America, we are reminding 

69
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,560
the rest of the world what 
happens when you let 

70
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,560
conservatism win. 
So let us be a warning. 

71
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,560
Yep, let us be the sacrificial 
lamb for the rest of the world. 

72
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,160
That's in charge of the nation's
currency, yes. 

73
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,240
OK, so. 
We are. 

74
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,720
We are reading Saturday Nights 
All Right for a Fight Part 1 

75
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,000
script by Ken Penders and 
penciled by Art Mawhinney. 

76
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,520
The worst has happened. 
Sonic the Hedgehog has lost his 

77
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,720
memory and joined forces with 
his arch enemy, Doctor Ivo 

78
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,360
Robotnik to overthrow his 
friends, Princess Sally and the 

79
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,120
Freedom Fighters. 
We're now seconds away from the 

80
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,600
action busting loose, so just 
strap yourselves in. 

81
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,080
Sonic the Hedgehog is now 
staring at Sally and Roeder. 

82
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,000
Sally thinks to herself, this 
looks bad, better think fast. 

83
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,040
She starts saying that she's 
glad Sonic is back and he looks 

84
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,720
unwell and if anything is wrong,
absolutely nothing. 

85
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:25,400
Nothing been some slam jamming, 
nothing that some slam jam. 

86
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,760
It can't fix that is. 
I forgot about that line 

87
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:28,320
already. 
I. 

88
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,320
Chance it is pretty fucking 
good. 

89
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,960
I I read this three, I probably 
should have read this recently, 

90
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,160
so this is. 
Like now you get the true viewer

91
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,200
experience. 
Sonic speeds towards Rotor, 

92
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,720
reaches out his left arm and 
gives Rotor a left hook right in

93
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,680
the kisser. 
Straight to the moon. 

94
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,720
Rotor slams on the floor and is 
now knocked out. 

95
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,000
Sonic speeds behind Sally, 
starts to put Sally in a 

96
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,360
chokehold and says cold still 
Princess, this won't hurt much. 

97
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,200
Sally grabs the arm around her 
neck and swings the upper half 

98
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,360
of her body forward, flinging 
Sonic over her shoulders. 

99
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,400
No thanks. 
Besides, I prefer to give rather

100
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:16,440
than receive. 
Then she's a. 

101
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,600
Choice. 
She would be a Dom, yeah. 

102
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,800
Oh, well, yeah, that's not. 
She's the soft. 

103
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,400
Question it's just there's a 
there's a time and place, Sally.

104
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,240
This isn't the time or the place
we see wouldn't. 

105
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,280
It be funny if like the innuendo
is what like like got to his 

106
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,560
like inner brain and it's like, 
oh, that's what pulled me out. 

107
00:06:37,280 --> 00:06:38,120
That's what pulled me out of 
the. 

108
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,520
Train. 
Oh wait a minute, I am a sub. 

109
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:45,200
We see. 
Everything that just happens, we

110
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,680
see. 
Tails and Buns hearing the 

111
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,640
battle and start rushing in to 
see Sally and Sonic fighting. 

112
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:56,000
Buns quickly grabs Sonic and 
puts him in a leg lock, proving 

113
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,800
instantly the theory that Buns 
is actually the most powerful 

114
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,720
freedom fighter and should 
perhaps be the one going on 

115
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,160
missions. 
Sally and Tails grabs Sonic, 

116
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,760
trying to restrain him. 
Sonic spins himself on a 

117
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,920
Tornado, flinging everyone 
across the room. 

118
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,560
Everyone is now knocked out, 
with Sonic standing over all of 

119
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,840
them, victorious. 
End of Part 1. 

120
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,880
So real quick, first of all, I 
just want to mention, if I 

121
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:25,440
recall, that yeah, Tails and 
Buns are confused as to what's 

122
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,920
going on. 
Like they, they do not know the 

123
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,960
situation. 
Like that's what this issue 

124
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,200
establishes. 
And I kind of appreciate that 

125
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,000
they immediately try to help 
Sally instead of Sonic. 

126
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,960
Yeah, I feel like if if I was in
the same exact situation, like 

127
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,240
it's Sally is technically your 
boss, right? 

128
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,000
Like she's the one that you're 
like, wait a minute, Whatever's 

129
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,960
happening, we're, we're, we're 
getting behind Sally, right? 

130
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:58,200
Loyalty behind the crown I for 
their characters I appreciate. 

131
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,240
Agreed. 
Right, So yeah, this one's a lot

132
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,840
of actions, a pretty cool 
action. 

133
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,600
I like that because like in the 
issue before this, Sonic was 

134
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,560
just on a RIP. 
He was just beaten through 

135
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,720
everyone and everything. 
Like there were some traps and 

136
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,120
safety like precautions by the 
freedom fighters, but in terms 

137
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,800
of person to person combat, it 
was all Sonic. 

138
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,000
But Sally was like, Hey, I I 
know some moves like we're good,

139
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:28,320
like you thought you. 
Had that, I mean, yeah, you 

140
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,840
know. 
It's been a minute. 

141
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,799
It's OK. 
It's OK. 

142
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:42,240
I'm just glad that you're OK. 
Yeah, nothing to comment here. 

143
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,080
Sound off in the comments though
and I will move on after this. 

144
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:54,560
Sound off in the comments if 
Buns Bunny's leg lock awaken 

145
00:08:54,560 --> 00:08:56,600
something in you. 
So sound off in the comments if 

146
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:04,600
that's if this is what did it. 
Yeah, I mean I guess that proves

147
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:09,000
that Sonic isn't a sub because 
if Sally with straining him, 

148
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,680
didn't, you know, trigger it, 
buns would have 1000% triggered 

149
00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:17,360
it and he he didn't. 
I have a feeling that Sonic is 

150
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,400
the type of guy that talks mad 
shit 'cause he is. 

151
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,160
He is like evidence. 
He talks mad shit but he's 

152
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,200
actually very bad in bed. 
Like just too fast. 

153
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,280
Come on. 
Yeah, just he, he, he finishes 

154
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,280
and he's like, all right, we're 
done. 

155
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,000
And it's like, no, you got to, 
you got to give, you got to give

156
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,640
buddy. 
Oh, he does not give. 

157
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,640
He he's a taker. 
He's in and out and he's just 

158
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,080
gone. 
Yeah, he does not give or 

159
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,120
receive. 
He takes. 

160
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,200
Yeah, the third that, that is 
the third option. 

161
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,800
No, you're no, that's the third 
option. 

162
00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:01,040
And fellas, fellas, you gotta 
make sure they're also, hey, 

163
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,760
this is, we're obviously joking 
around. 

164
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,080
We, we've got some levity here. 
This is obviously funny, but 

165
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:12,520
also I'm being very serious. 
Fellas, just ask during sex, 

166
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,040
just be like, hey, does this 
feel all right? 

167
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,760
Like how you doing? 
Or it's like, are you, are you 

168
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,360
good? 
Like you want a vibe? 

169
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,640
Check How are the vibe? 
Yeah, it's like, how are you? 

170
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:22,880
Does that? 
Does that feel good you? 

171
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:27,400
Need to get the vibrator. 
No, hey, legit, that's a thing. 

172
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,720
There are women out there, and I
hear this from I read this from 

173
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,920
testimony is that there are 
women out there that 

174
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:40,680
legitimately cannot receive 
pleasure through traditional 

175
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,440
penetration methods. 
And I'm I'm or like they can't, 

176
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,200
they can't, they can't finish. 
They can't finish, right? 

177
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,840
They can get pleasure from it, 
but they, they can't, you know, 

178
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:55,600
achieve orgasm. 
We're saying this because 

179
00:10:55,840 --> 00:11:00,000
someone, a a kid out there, a 
teenager, a young adult or a 

180
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,280
fully grown adult needs to hear 
this. 

181
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,400
You know, normally I would try 
to steer the conversation right 

182
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,120
back to Sonic because it's a 
Sonic podcast, but it seems like

183
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,200
you really need to get that off 
your chest, so. 

184
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,440
I have heard, I have heard some 
really bad. 

185
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,480
I have a lot of female friends 
and they're like, yeah, Dom, 

186
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,280
you, you need to start telling 
your guy friends not like 

187
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,560
literally, but like if you start
spreading the word out to out to

188
00:11:23,560 --> 00:11:25,560
the male population, This is how
it. 

189
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,160
Is I know you've got a podcast, 
I need you to start telling 

190
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,040
people these things honestly. 
If I brought it up again, they 

191
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,200
might, yeah. 
And if anyone needs to hear 

192
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:40,200
this, it is the introverted 
autistic subculture that exists 

193
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,640
within Sonic the Hedgehog. 
So there. 

194
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,440
There you go. 
No, they not. 

195
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,640
Not our fans. 
Take this information and learn 

196
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:50,360
from it. 
OK? 

197
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:55,680
Anything else? 
No, I think, I think you said 

198
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,920
everything I was thinking and 
more. 

199
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,080
OK, Saturday night's all right 
for a fight Part 2. 

200
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,920
We open on Robotnik and Snively,
watching Sonic over a monitor. 

201
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,040
Well, Sir, it looks like Sonic 
the Hedgehog has succeeded where

202
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,360
you couldn't. 
I mean, Bert, you haven't yet. 

203
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,720
Cease your witless cackling 
stiffly, you idiot. 

204
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,760
Sonic may have won my battle for
me, but he hasn't finished the 

205
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,080
job. 
We sent him to Knothole Village 

206
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,600
so we could discover its 
location and destroy it. 

207
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:34,400
With his current state of memory
loss, he was a more than willing

208
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,120
puppet, ready to heed my every 
command. 

209
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,560
Since he is incapable of any 
serious independent thought, we 

210
00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:44,640
need the location coordinates of
the village to send in the 

211
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,480
demolition tractors. 
Unfortunately, the freedom 

212
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,840
fighters have allowed level 
jammers of some type, preventing

213
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,920
me from honing in on the signal 
from the transmitter I secretly 

214
00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:00,280
placed in the hedgehog. 
All I can do now is wait and 

215
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:04,480
track his path of return to us. 
The screen that's tracking Sonic

216
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,520
the Hedgehog has turned black. 
What? 

217
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:16,000
We've lost the signal. 
Boost boost, boost, boost, boost

218
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,760
the reception. 
Stiffly now, Snively starts 

219
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,520
walking away, glaring at 
Robotnik. 

220
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,160
Snively starts thinking to 
himself, just once, I wish he'd 

221
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,400
say please. 
We cut back to Sonic. 

222
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,560
The lights have gone dark. 
Sonic hears footsteps all around

223
00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:34,320
him. 
All right, whoever you are, you 

224
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:40,560
want to make this easy or hard, 
stay still, Misami. 

225
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,040
Whatever else he may be, Sonic 
is no match for the hotel 

226
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,440
prowess of Antoine. 
Watch and learn from Zimaster. 

227
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,240
We see the dark blobs with what 
appeared to be the outlines of 

228
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,080
the Junior Freedom Fighters, 
along with Antoine surrounding 

229
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,920
Sonic. 
Everyone subdues the enemy. 

230
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,600
Everyone jumps Sonic. 
So feed this gun. 

231
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:08,640
Where did he go? 
Oh Antoine, miss me. 

232
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:13,000
We may not be able to see, but I
can still move faster than you. 

233
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,080
And now that I know it's you, 
Sonic gets cut off by the 

234
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:23,920
coolest pig around, Hamlin. 
Well, he ain't the only one here

235
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:31,200
buddy. 
Maybe not numbers pal, but 

236
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,680
that'll be the day some rookie 
gets the drop on the old 

237
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,480
hedgehog. 
Sonic throws Hamlet across the 

238
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,120
room. 
I'm surprised at you Tuan, 

239
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,360
sending others to fight your 
battles. 

240
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,880
Antoine appears in front of 
Sonic and pulls out a sword. 

241
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:52,200
Bondie, no one accuses Antoine 
of being zic Coward on God, you 

242
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,960
witless knave. 
Sonic dodges Antoine's attacks. 

243
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:03,240
You're so your swords, your 
sword sword, your sword sword 

244
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,240
swishing is quite revealing. 
Why don't you shut your position

245
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,920
while you're at it? 
I'm assuming he didn't say so. 

246
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:13,120
There's only one. 
Sword Sonic dodges more of 

247
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,000
Antoine's attacks and punches 
him in the head. 

248
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:21,680
Arlo jumps out from behind. 
Arlo jumps out from behind the. 

249
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,080
Arlo is the armadillo, right? 
Yeah, Arlo. 

250
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,480
Arlo Armadillo. 
Yeah, that's exactly how they 

251
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,520
got that name. 
Hold on Sir. 

252
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,320
He. 
He won't get them by me. 

253
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,440
Sonic catches Arlo mid air and 
throws him at Penelope the 

254
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,120
Platypus, knocking them out. 
Sonic begins to look for a way 

255
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,880
to turn on the lights when he 
gets slammed by Dylan the 

256
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:47,840
Porcupine, knocking out Sonic 
the Hedgehog as Princess Sally 

257
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,000
uses. 
It's been a minute since we've 

258
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,760
done these voices. 
As Princess Sally used to say, 

259
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,920
the best attack is always the 
least expected. 

260
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:02,040
And of Part 2. 
I'm shocked you remembered 

261
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:03,600
everyone's voice, like 
immediately. 

262
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,000
That was especially Arlo's, 
which I love. 

263
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,120
Arlo's too. 
I mean, Dylan's the best, don't 

264
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:16,640
get me wrong, but I like the 
idea. 

265
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,600
I don't know if this is what 
happened. 

266
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:26,680
I assume it's not that Sonic 
doesn't remember anyone but his 

267
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:31,640
hatred for Antoine and just 
started goading him immediately 

268
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,280
because, like, there's 
definitely an air of like, I 

269
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,000
remember you and I'm going to 
fuck with you here. 

270
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,960
I assume what ended up happening
is that Robotnik deprived him on

271
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,040
all the Freedom Fighters before 
going out. 

272
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:51,080
But I like to think he did it. 
Yeah, and he just remembered to 

273
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,560
add to what he's like. 
Fuck this guy. 

274
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,440
That's that's total that's 
unsubstantiated head cannon 

275
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,240
because I think in the previous 
issue robotic literally set up 

276
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,760
androids for him to fight in 
practice. 

277
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,200
Oh yeah, that is true. 
That is true. 

278
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:04,599
They they have the fake 
androids. 

279
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:08,760
But it'd be really funny if he 
did it, if that didn't happen. 

280
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,400
And he, yeah, just literally 
remembers this one kernel of 

281
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,800
information that no, I hate this
French motherfucker. 

282
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,319
I just hate this fucker. 
I thought it was. 

283
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:20,920
It was kind of cool to see in 
terms of action, if we're going 

284
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,440
to have action. 
I think it was cool to see all 

285
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,599
the silhouetting. 
Yeah, I was actually going to 

286
00:17:25,599 --> 00:17:30,560
bring up the fact that I I 
really like how they styled 

287
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,080
Fighting in the Darkness, which 
is like a red shape. 

288
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,160
You know what? 
I was watching Michael Mann's 

289
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,720
what is it called Manhunter. 
I think it was OK. 

290
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,480
It's the Red Dragon movie that 
was made in the 80s. 

291
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,640
Red Dragon being the name of the
book. 

292
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,120
Oh this is like Girl of the 
Dragon Tattoo or something. 

293
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,160
No, no, no. 
Hannibal Lecter. 

294
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:54,560
Hannibal Lecter. 
That's right. 

295
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,240
That's right. 
Yeah, I fell asleep so I didn't 

296
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:01,440
finish it so I have no opinions 
on the movie, but something that

297
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,040
stood out to me and it instantly
made me like hate modern movies.

298
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,400
This is always going to be AI 
hate modern movies rant every 

299
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:16,280
single episode just low key and 
I really appreciated how he lit 

300
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:23,040
this dark scene, which was it 
was a house and honestly, when 

301
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,960
you're shooting in a house at 
night, either you this is my 

302
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,720
problem with modern day films is
with digital, you're allowed to 

303
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,520
get really, really dark and you 
can't do that with analog. 

304
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:40,320
You need right sources of light 
to thinking film in order to 

305
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:44,400
kind of like get some sort of 
ambience in the room, which 

306
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:50,920
leads to a lot of, we'll say, 
fantastical shots that you just 

307
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,680
have to believe it's dark, 
right? 

308
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,200
It's like, oh, there's a lot of 
like blue hues and it's supposed

309
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,160
to symbolize it's dark, but it's
not actually dark, you know what

310
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,760
I mean? 
And with how he lit this scene 

311
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:07,360
was Michael Mann. 
I shouldn't say how he lit the 

312
00:19:07,360 --> 00:19:10,360
scene and how the lighting 
director lit the scene, but I 

313
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:11,920
don't know his name. 
That's fine. 

314
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:17,360
What he did was he had like it 
was like a motel light or 

315
00:19:17,360 --> 00:19:21,080
something like a vacancy sign, 
like pretty much right outside 

316
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,160
just really shining in light 
into the house. 

317
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:29,000
So they're just like bars of 
light that were really like 

318
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,800
shining that would light up 
certain like motions and 

319
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,320
whatnot. 
But then the rest of the was 

320
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,440
like pretty dark in a blue light
and it just, I was, I was 

321
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,680
reading the scene. 
It just kind of reminded me of 

322
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:48,720
lighting in older films and how 
that translated to the comics. 

323
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,240
I just appreciate it, that's 
all. 

324
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,360
Modern films can't do dark well 
because they allow things to get

325
00:19:55,360 --> 00:19:57,120
too dark and you can't see 
Jack's shit. 

326
00:19:57,120 --> 00:20:01,000
And then the creators of the 
shows are just like, you know 

327
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,480
what? 
Your TV sucks because if you had

328
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,840
a good TV, this would be fine. 
Sorry, it's like. 

329
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,320
We used to know good lighting, 
but we just forgot how to. 

330
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,000
We just forgot. 
We just forgot. 

331
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,120
But so I really like the 
lighting of the scene. 

332
00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:21,960
I really like it, has like real 
submarine vibes with the red. 

333
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,160
Just the general like emergency 
lighting The Cave, that's 

334
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:32,280
fantastic choice by the inking 
Harvo. 

335
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:37,240
That's all you have just harvo. 
That's all they have, so. 

336
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,640
Are you serious? 
Yeah, I, I whenever they have 

337
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,920
the names, I write it as is so. 
What are you talking? 

338
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,360
Wait, hold on. 
It said Harvo. 

339
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:55,400
Script by Ken Penders pencil. 
Inks rich. 

340
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,720
I'm stupid, I'm stupid. 
My script was on the previous 

341
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:00,960
was wasn't that in the next 
story? 

342
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:03,320
OK, so. 
Yep, the next one's Harvo. 

343
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,720
Shout out to Rich. 
Coilers. 

344
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,800
Switch to Rich Koslowski for 
inking very good use of red. 

345
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:16,560
Yeah, so this just reinforces 
the concept that maybe they need

346
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,160
a protocol for when Sonic goes 
rogue, because this is way too 

347
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,400
this is he literally can't. 
I mean, no, clearly Dylan took 

348
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,560
him down, but still, that was 
just way too much. 

349
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,760
That took way too much. 
I mean, it took everyone. 

350
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:35,280
Yeah, it's yeah, they need to 
like have an activation word. 

351
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,840
They they got to plant a bomb in
his brain. 

352
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:44,000
And whenever someone says like, 
pineapple, banana pudding pie or

353
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:48,560
something, something that 
doesn't exist, yeah, he his 

354
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,600
brain just explodes, you know? 
A kill switch. 

355
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,960
Yeah, a kill switch. 
Dude, Sonic's strong enough 

356
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,600
where you need one. 
That's true. 

357
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,960
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Every single time Sonic has 

358
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,280
gotten brainwashed or something,
it's been luck every single 

359
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,280
time. 
Did you, did you ever play Call 

360
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,600
of Duty Black Ops one? 
The very first one. 

361
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,880
No, but I literally just 
listened to a interview with one

362
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:20,200
of the like directors of that 
game like 2 days ago. 

363
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,120
Yeah, yeah, the game, the game 
is, it's based on it's, it's 

364
00:22:24,360 --> 00:22:28,600
very, it's the Cold War 1960s. 
It covers that whole era because

365
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,120
it was the first Cold War, I 
believe, Yeah, first Cold War, 

366
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,400
Call of Duty game. 
So they were laying lovely into 

367
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,840
that. 
You, you meet Kennedy at one 

368
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:42,520
point and and then there's like 
you go into like Soviet Russia, 

369
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,200
you go into Vietnam and all that
stuff. 

370
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,120
And the whole premise is that 
it's all conspiracy driven. 

371
00:22:47,120 --> 00:22:50,080
You're trying to uncover this 
conspiracy and you, the 

372
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,960
protagonist, the main, the main 
protagonist, I should say, 

373
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,960
because I think it jumps around.
You are. 

374
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,440
You're like brainwashed and the 
whole framing device of the 

375
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,120
whole game, you keep cutting 
back, in fact, the main menu. 

376
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,000
You're a Manchurian Candidate, 
right? 

377
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,640
Yes, yes, pretty much. 
And you're, the main menu is 

378
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,640
framed in like you're in the 
interrogation room and you've 

379
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,440
just been for hours and hours 
and hours. 

380
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,800
You have been trying, they're 
trying to decipher this 

381
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,400
information from you critically 
because they're short on time 

382
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,080
and because it, but it's a 
numbers thing. 

383
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,880
It's like there's a number 
station that activates you for, 

384
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,280
for and we don't know why, we 
don't know how, but it is. 

385
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,200
And every level is you is the 
interrogator trying to 

386
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,320
extrapolate, you know, things 
for you. 

387
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:37,520
I really enjoyed the the plot of
of Black Ops one and then from 

388
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:41,880
there got increasingly unhinged 
and less relatable to me, but 

389
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,280
early not relatable, but rather 
like, you know, less interesting

390
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,720
to me but that. 
You should really listen to the 

391
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,320
interview. 
I'll, I'll send it to you. 

392
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,480
Yeah. 
Send me that Michael Mann. 

393
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:53,720
I'm. 
Calling it out on the podcast. 

394
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:58,040
It's from Jeff Gersman's podcast
he interviewed. 

395
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:03,360
I don't think he was. 
He was the lead like director I 

396
00:24:03,360 --> 00:24:09,200
think on four and three, and he 
was pretty high up on one and 

397
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,360
two. 
Yeah. 

398
00:24:12,360 --> 00:24:15,200
It was just interesting 
listening to him talk and how he

399
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,600
got to some of the decisions he 
got to. 

400
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,000
It made me want to play the 
games and I never played the 

401
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:24,000
games before. 
So that's that's it. 

402
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,400
Black Ops Black Ops won the last
black the last Call of Duty game

403
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,400
I ever bought. 
I was buying them from Call of 

404
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,960
Duty 4 all the way through until
the 1st Black Ops and I was 

405
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,600
like, this is our this is pretty
all right. 

406
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,760
I think I'm good now. 
We are a OK. 

407
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:46,760
Jason Blundell and and it's the 
Jeff Gersman's podcast. 

408
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,680
Saturday nights All right for a 
fight Part 3. 

409
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,840
We open on Sonic the Hedgehog in
a hospital bed, Sally and his at

410
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,120
his bedside while Rotary's in 
the background examining X-rays 

411
00:24:58,120 --> 00:25:01,440
of Sonic's head. 
How do you feel, Sonic the 

412
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,440
Hedgehog? 
Do you remember anything that's 

413
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:08,080
happened? 
Ow, that's some bump on my 

414
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,320
noggin. 
Feels like I've been kicked by a

415
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,680
SWAT bot. 
Yes. 

416
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,600
Oh, he thought you were a goner 
when the Not Hole Village secret

417
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,200
access tunnel was destroyed. 
But to answer your question, 

418
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,200
it's all a blue blur to me. 
Rotor is still looking at the 

419
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,040
X-ray. 
Gosh, I think I found something,

420
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,680
Princess. 
He walks over to Sonic with a 

421
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,480
pair of tweezers and pulls 
something out from Sonic's head.

422
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,080
And here's the little critter 
right where the X-ray charts 

423
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:38,320
mark. 
Mark the spot. 

424
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,680
Rotor pulls off Robotnik's 
camcorder from Sonic's head. 

425
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,840
A little doohickey the old 
doctor must have placed on Sonic

426
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,520
without him knowing. 
There's no telling how much 

427
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,920
information he may have obtained
through this. 

428
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,160
Sonic gets up from the hospital 
bed. 

429
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,280
Well, that settles that then. 
What? 

430
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,600
Settles what? 
Sonic, Where do you think you're

431
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,480
going to make a man? 
Sal? 

432
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,880
Even though I was clueless due 
to some accident, I've placed 

433
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,080
everyone in grave danger, and 
the hedgehog's got to do what a 

434
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,640
hedgehog's got to do. 
Sonic dashes out of Knothole 

435
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,720
Village. 
We cut back to Robonic and 

436
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,880
Snively in the control room. 
Well, Snively, it's obvious 

437
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,960
we're not going to learn 
anything from our bug. 

438
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,320
We may as well send in the 
demolition tractors and hope 

439
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,840
they aren't off the mark by 
much. 

440
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,720
Just then, Sonic appears on his 
monitors. 

441
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:37,200
Hold it, it's that blasted 
hedgehog and he's coming out of 

442
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:41,000
the tree stump entrance. 
And Doctor Robotnik, I've 

443
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,240
receiving telemetry readings 
from the transmitter. 

444
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,760
It must still be on him. 
Well, well, well, he's going 

445
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,800
back in. 
Sniffly lock on and have the 

446
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,440
tractors track him from above 
ground. 

447
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,440
It looks like we'll get what we 
came for yet. 

448
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,000
We cut to Sonic running in the 
underground tunnels. 

449
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,400
Here's hope, an old robobot 
swallowed the bat. 

450
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,680
Here's hope an old robobot 
swallowed the bait. 

451
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:12,520
Still said it weird we cut this.
Yeah, he did say it. 

452
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,160
Weird. 
We cut the tails flying above 

453
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,560
the tanks and reported to Sally 
that the tanks are following 

454
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,960
Sonic's path. 
Sonic meets up with Sally Roeder

455
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,760
and a couple of groundhogs. 
Sonic has led the tanks to a 

456
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,160
Cliff with an overhang. 
The tanks stop and the Cliff 

457
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,120
breaks, sending all the tanks to
the bottom of a ravine. 

458
00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:36,760
Robotic will believe we let him 
down a decoy tunnel. 

459
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,880
He'll never know you were 
originally in the real tunnel 

460
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,160
that leads to a knothole. 
We'll begin rebuilding a new 

461
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,600
tunnel. 
But first, I need to apologize 

462
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,400
for my actions. 
You weren't quite yourself, 

463
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,920
Sonic. 
Besides, now I know how you 

464
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,080
feel. 
After our sparring exercises, we

465
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,600
cut back to Stiveley on Robotnik
in his control room. 

466
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,760
Well, Stiveley, Even with memory
loss, that hedgehog has done it 

467
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,200
again. 
He's led me on on another wild 

468
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,600
goose chase. 
Think of it this way, Sir. 

469
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,600
If he gets his memory back, then
maybe he won't remember making a

470
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,640
goose out of you. 
The end. 

471
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,480
I don't really understand this 
ending. 

472
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:24,040
So they went and dug a tunnel to
the ending and then I guess all 

473
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,440
the like to a Cliff and I guess 
the tanks. 

474
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:32,040
I interpret it as like the Cliff
broke and the Cliff like tanks 

475
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,280
fell off. 
But it looks like in retrospect 

476
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,360
that maybe they just drove off 
the edge. 

477
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,360
Yeah, yeah. 
They they they found, they drove

478
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,640
off the Cliff. 
And then exploded. 

479
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,440
Yeah, sure. 
Because it's, you know, action 

480
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,280
movie logic where it's, it just 
explodes. 

481
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:52,240
Yeah, OK, I I might, yeah. 
I'm not sure if I completely 

482
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,560
interpreted that correctly when 
I first read it. 

483
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,440
It's. 
Just it's just concerted this 

484
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:01,680
information by routing the tanks
because he still has the 

485
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:05,800
tracking, yeah. 
It's still on a fundamental 

486
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,280
level. 
Just think the tracking thing is

487
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,360
just dumb. 
It is silly because if it's all 

488
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,080
coordinate based, just find the 
coordinates and you're good. 

489
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,200
Like that's, yeah, you've got 
it. 

490
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:17,720
That's the secret. 
That's the secret. 

491
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,560
That's all you need to do. 
Yep, I, I, yeah. 

492
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:28,280
I mean, Robotnik has like a 
general idea of where the 

493
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,520
village is, right? 
Like he doesn't need to put it 

494
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:36,600
on autotrack, he can send out 
robot sniffing machines to try 

495
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:41,120
to find that hole. 
Another another convoluted plan.

496
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,760
Mr. Robotnik, I don't get you. 
We are still on this Saturday 

497
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,320
night. 
We are nearing the end, nearing 

498
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:52,920
the end of the first section of 
the of the Ken Pender. 

499
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,720
According to Ken according to 
the Thanks Ken Pender's blog. 

500
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,080
Correct. 
Which I, I, we adhere to, I, I 

501
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,640
adhere too strongly because it, 
it seems to be working out both 

502
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,840
we'll see when we cross over, 
but I'm pretty confident. 

503
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,440
So this is you. 
Think the tone is going to 

504
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:08,920
drastically shift? 
No, I don't. 

505
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,240
I don't think so at all. 
But I think the quality will 

506
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,360
improve to not maybe not 
drastically, but I think. 

507
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,920
Wow, so so you're not impressed 
with the quality right now? 

508
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:26,920
And you were? 
This is especially this next 

509
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,400
story. 
Let me tell you, this is all 

510
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,240
good stuff. 
Saturday night, Saturday night, 

511
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,880
Saturday morning cartoon maybe? 
All right, should we move on? 

512
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,400
Yeah. 
I mean, do we have anything as a

513
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,200
whole to talk about with this 
last issue? 

514
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,200
I mean, it doesn't the story 
doesn't feel big enough to split

515
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:50,280
it up into parts, right? 
Because I mean, if you think of,

516
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,000
I mean, it's technically not 
only one part, but it's 

517
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:58,840
continued from the last issue. 
And I just, I guess I don't 

518
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:03,920
understand why they felt this 
needed such a big story to go 

519
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,280
over multiple issues. 
You know what I mean? 

520
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:13,120
But I'm at least I'm interested 
in the idea of them breaking up 

521
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,760
stories between issues now, kind
of usually a reason why I want 

522
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,680
to like read next week, you know
what I mean? 

523
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:24,600
But I I just don't understand. 
They're not telling overarching 

524
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,080
stories yet, so I don't We'll 
see. 

525
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,720
We'll see. 
Yeah, it's a cool. 

526
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,160
It's an. 
Interesting my my opinion might 

527
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,160
change soon. 
In terms of Manchurian 

528
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,800
candidates, it's pretty cool to 
see like that concept played 

529
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,320
out, particularly with the most 
powerful character in the in the

530
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:45,200
among the freedom fighters. 
So that was that was 

531
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,520
interesting. 
The build up was really cool to 

532
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,560
it. 
Before he reached Knothole. 

533
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,720
That was really. 
Yeah, I mean, that was the 

534
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,240
thing. 
I, I guess maybe I was more 

535
00:31:54,240 --> 00:32:00,440
impressed with the build up than
the actual Manchurian Candidate 

536
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:01,760
like stuff, you know what I 
mean? 

537
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,040
I mean, I guess they kind of 
came in very hostile, but I 

538
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:11,600
would have liked to see maybe 
more, less action and more like,

539
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:17,800
hey, maybe Sonic's trying to 
convince them that he's a one of

540
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,920
them while still under the 
control of Robotnik. 

541
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,760
You know what I mean? 
You think something a little bit

542
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,440
more? 
Stretch it out then. 

543
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,440
Just let's beat everyone up. 
You think you need. 

544
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:26,600
They need to stretch it out 
more. 

545
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,760
Not stress it out. 
Change out what happened. 

546
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,080
OK, OK. 
Yeah, replace some of the action

547
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,680
because these were like 3 big 
action-packed. 

548
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,560
This is mainly just action or 
parts, it didn't have to be. 

549
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,240
OK, fair enough. 
So more exploration of the 

550
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,800
character, which is what we, 
which is what we actually enjoy.

551
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:48,800
Exactly. 
All right, here we go. 

552
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,240
Growing Pain script by Mike 
Gallagher, penciled by Dave 

553
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:57,560
Monoch and inking My Harvo. 
OK, Sonic and Tails are outside 

554
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,560
Tails and lead and marching away
from Sonic while Sonic is 

555
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:04,480
following close behind trying to
apologize for his actions in the

556
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:08,560
last story. 
Tails, come on man, I'm trying 

557
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,240
to explain why I slapped you 
around. 

558
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:12,600
I don't want to hear it. 
Sonic. 

559
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,880
I was under robotics control. 
You know how tricky old blubber 

560
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:21,560
bolts can be, pal. 
Oh sure, now you want me to. 

561
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,320
Now you want to treat me like I 
belong. 

562
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:28,440
Well, forget it, tail starts 
flying away off a Cliff so Sonic

563
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:34,080
can follow the thanks I get from
those freedom fighters. 

564
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,800
They treat me like a baby, even 
with my submarine. 

565
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,880
The sea fox Princess Sally tells
Roeder not to put any oil in it.

566
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,800
I'm supposed to play in it like 
a floating crib. 

567
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,200
Little do they know I cleaned up
an oil soaked seagull and filled

568
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,480
my crankcase. 
So this baby runs. 

569
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,000
Thanks. 
For reminding us tails. 

570
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,760
It it is silly writing, but also
just out of context. 

571
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:01,440
It's really, really funny. 
It's it's absolutely insane. 

572
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,240
Little do they know I cleaned up
an oil soaked seagull and filled

573
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,159
my crankcase. 
Tails on docks. 

574
00:34:08,159 --> 00:34:10,840
A submarine. 
How could they know? 

575
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,960
Always too busy ignoring me. 
But guess what guys, I'm out of 

576
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,920
here. 
Tails takes off in a submarine 

577
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,719
towards the sunset. 
Unfortunately for Tails, 

578
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:25,000
Robotnik has a hidden camera 
again nearby and he saw all of 

579
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:29,480
Tails as little outburst. 
Installing my robo camera in 

580
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,520
that tree has paid off. 
What a perfect opportunity. 

581
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,840
I still have a leftover robot 
from my recent war with 

582
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,360
Princess. 
With Princess Sally, they are 

583
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:43,159
indistinguishable from real 
animals. 

584
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,520
Nails is sailing around in a 
submarine boat, and he hears a 

585
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,639
call for help coming from a 
nearby island. 

586
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,560
Tails quickly leaps into action,
flying out of a submarine. 

587
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:56,920
I don't need anyone's 
permission. 

588
00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:02,520
I'm big, I'm mature, I'm I'm in 
love. 

589
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,400
We see a beautiful fox tied to a
coconut tree. 

590
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,560
Wow, a gorgeous young female fox
in distress. 

591
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:15,320
Have No Fear, Tails is here. 
What's OK? 

592
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,360
Distressed female fox who's also
young, right? 

593
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,040
I don't know that you're putting
words in my mouth. 

594
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,920
Well, unless Robotnik created a 
predator fox. 

595
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:32,880
I I mean it is technically a 
predator fox because it's a 

596
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,000
robot designed to go after 
tails, right? 

597
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,280
So what you want? 
What you you tell me what should

598
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:42,920
be what should be the voice for 
distressed female fox? 

599
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:49,560
I mean, it's got to be a, it 
needs to be real sexy, right? 

600
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:55,280
Like real sexy. 
OK, OK, so real feminine. 

601
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,760
Whoever you think Fiona would 
like sound like Fiona's a sexy 

602
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,880
name. 
Who Who is the sexiest character

603
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,880
you could think of? 
Nick Fictional character 

604
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,600
fictional. 
Character Fictional character 

605
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:11,960
sexiest. 
Well, the problem is it's Doctor

606
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,560
Robotnik. 
But you already you already have

607
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:15,520
a voice for him. 
I'm sorry I'm. 

608
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,240
Sorry, I should I should narrow 
down. 

609
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,720
Maybe this is just because of 
the fact that it's a fox that 

610
00:36:20,720 --> 00:36:24,440
I'm looking at right now, but my
mind instantly went to Robin 

611
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,120
Hood, the cartoon Robin Hood 
with the foxes. 

612
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,240
Maid. 
Marian Yeah. 

613
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,200
And I'm just thinking. 
I'm just thinking that cartoon 

614
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,720
fox. 
That was an honest answer from 

615
00:36:37,720 --> 00:36:39,120
you, Nick. 
I was, I was expecting like 

616
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:43,160
Jessica Rabbit or like, hello, 
nurse from Animaniacs. 

617
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:47,080
OK, Yeah. 
What's No, it's just, I think 

618
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,280
it's just the fact that I'm 
looking at a fox. 

619
00:36:49,720 --> 00:36:51,640
And so like, that's where my 
mind went. 

620
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,320
OK, OK, I'll I will accept it. 
I will accept that answer. 

621
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:56,840
So what's Maid Marian like? 
Because I. 

622
00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:00,320
Don't I don't remember what they
she even sounds like so. 

623
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,760
OK, so let's so let's go full. 
Should we go full? 

624
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,440
Full, sexy full, full? 
Oh yeah, let's make it. 

625
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,800
Weird, weird as possible. 
Let's go full slut. 

626
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,560
Let's let's slide it up for the 
four year old slut. 

627
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:25,440
I'm putting this on the 
Internet. 

628
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:31,120
OK, OK, here we go. 
Here we go. 

629
00:37:31,720 --> 00:37:34,160
Remember, if you ever have 
children, they can see this one 

630
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,160
day. 
The the the solution is to just 

631
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,080
not have children, OK? 
Yeah, that's that's that's my 

632
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,320
solution. 
This is this is the day. 

633
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:44,320
OK, here we go. 
This is this is the moment we 

634
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:45,760
decided not to. 
Have children. 

635
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:51,040
Here we go. 
Here we go. 00 Crystal Fox from 

636
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:52,640
Star Fox Adventures. 
Here we go. 

637
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:56,760
OK, I don't know. 
Only in that, actually, Yeah. 

638
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,480
No, No, No, No. 
No, no, no. 

639
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,320
No, because she's I don't think 
she's actually that seductive. 

640
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:06,560
It's literally just the scene 
where Fox is like first finds 

641
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,280
her unconscious and it's like 
the saxophone. 

642
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,000
I I, I we're thinking of 
different games. 

643
00:38:11,720 --> 00:38:18,480
Star Fox 64 characters. 
I I've never really played 

644
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,560
Adventure. 
Oh, it is Crystal. 

645
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:27,840
OK, I think yeah, yeah, yeah, 
yeah, yeah it is. 

646
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,600
And she was sexy in Star Fox 64.
Or at least they tried to do 

647
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:37,320
like a sexy pilot voice. 
OK, but it's been a minute so 

648
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:43,160
we're just going to go full Oh, 
please help me. 

649
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:46,200
How was that? 
Yeah, that was. 

650
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:47,880
That's good. 
That was that was bang on. 

651
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,760
We went a little too hard in 
trying to figure out this one 

652
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,600
note. 
Yes, she has. 

653
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,320
Other lines. 
Tails flies down and starts 

654
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,280
untying her. 
The fox introduces herself as 

655
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:05,600
Fiona. 
How can I ever thank you? 

656
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,760
They hold hands, their eyes 
meet, and they kiss. 

657
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,720
We see a montage of the date the
two of them have on this island,

658
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:17,680
frolicking on the beach, carving
their name in a tree, and 

659
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,120
watching the sunset. 
We cut a Robotnik watching all 

660
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:26,200
of this on a monitor. 
Oh, gag me with a chocolate 

661
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,640
heart. 
Time to spring this trap. 

662
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:33,600
Isn't it frustrating to know 
he's in danger and be helpless? 

663
00:39:34,240 --> 00:39:37,880
And be helpless to tell him it's
what movie director Alvarez 

664
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:41,880
Hitchcock called the Magothon? 
OK, sure. 

665
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,960
Yeah, that was just a fun little
third person thing talking to 

666
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:47,400
us. 
And I'm like, that's fun. 

667
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,880
I'll I'll include this. 
Where Bonnet goes through a 

668
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,000
giant telescope and continues 
watching. 

669
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:57,640
Ah yes, here they come, The 
sappy little fools so blinded by

670
00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:02,640
love he doesn't even see me 
standing on this nearby hill. 

671
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,240
Let's stop at my place to 
freshen up. 

672
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:13,160
It's just up ahead there. 
That den dug into the side of 

673
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,360
the hill. 
The dude, she's like, I forgot 

674
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,160
about this. 
She is like straight up inviting

675
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,600
him in, OK. 
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

676
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:22,480
This was going to be an 
interesting issue. 

677
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,520
They walk up to a hill with a 
hole dug into the side. 

678
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:31,360
Tails walks in 1st and Robotic 
runs up and slams cage bars on 

679
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,160
the hole. 
Tails sees Robotic and begins to

680
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,720
understand. 
He starts crying. 

681
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:47,840
Say it isn't so Theo. 
I was programmed to enslave your

682
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:52,120
heart and now I've enslaved the 
rest of you. 

683
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,840
Freedom fighter. 
You wanted to be treated as an 

684
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,280
adult, eh? 
Welcome to the real world. 

685
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:02,600
Fire it up. 
We find out the entire island is

686
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:07,000
man made by Robotnik and is a 
roboticizer. 

687
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:11,480
Robotnik orders. 
Robotnik orders Fiona to flip 

688
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:16,760
the switch and roboticize Tails.
She has a confused and worried 

689
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,520
look on her face. 
Should be continued. 

690
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:27,600
So let's start with the obvious 
interesting plan that Robotnik 

691
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:32,160
has come up with to get to 
seduce a four year old fox. 

692
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:36,240
A little weird. 
Yeah, it's a choice. 

693
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,760
I, I, I mean, maybe he's older 
now. 

694
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,760
Maybe we can infer it for 
instead of like 6, we can say 

695
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:52,360
like 8. 
No, he's 4, so if anything he's 

696
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:55,720
5. 
Dominic, we haven't been 

697
00:41:55,720 --> 00:41:59,800
following the misadventures of 
the freedom fighters for like 5 

698
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,120
years. 
This. 

699
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:03,600
Yeah, it's kind of weird for 
like. 

700
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,360
There's really no way to spin 
this one. 

701
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,840
This is an allegory. 
This is a warning, early 

702
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,360
warning. 
For. 

703
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,160
Falling in love for falling in 
love with people on the 

704
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,320
Internet. 
Because you don't know if 

705
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,920
they're AI or not. 
Not just AI, you don't know if 

706
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:25,400
it's just like a 60 year old ass
dude behind the screen. 

707
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,720
Literally behind the screen 
manipulating. 

708
00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:35,760
Yeah, I'm disappointed. 
And Robotnik, he really cock 

709
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,800
block tails here because she was
going to go all the way until 

710
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,040
until he got captured. 
Would the. 

711
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:46,360
OK, I don't know what I'm 
saying. 

712
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,600
You should just cut that. 
One. 

713
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:50,560
No, no, no, no. 
OK, so do you. 

714
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:57,440
Do you think Robotnik would? 
Would let it go all the way. 

715
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,560
Do you? 
Well, OK, my real question is, 

716
00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:04,480
do you think Robotnik would at 
any point, would he go to jail 

717
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,200
for this, for this act? 
Who? 

718
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:08,280
Who's going to jail him? 
OK. 

719
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,880
No, no. 
OK, that aside, let's just say 

720
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:12,760
this is an episode of Dateline 
NBC, right? 

721
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:17,120
This is To Catch a Predator 
would would when, when do you 

722
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:18,760
go? 
We got them, ladies and 

723
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:20,640
gentlemen, we got them. 
When do you go? 

724
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,800
I mean, I don't know. 
OK. 

725
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,120
I think, OK, now that I'm 
thinking about it, probably the 

726
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,800
imprisonment part because that's
kidnapping short, there's that. 

727
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,440
But we're talking about like 
from a predator standpoint, 

728
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,960
which he is very, he is being 
very creepo predator right now. 

729
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:42,160
Well, also man made island. 
Knowing how Robotnik operates, 

730
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,520
he's definitely got cameras all 
over this island. 

731
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,640
Which means if this if this goes
through, he's filming it. 

732
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,480
That's That is not good. 
That is very, very bad. 

733
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:52,560
This is. 
That is bad. 

734
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:57,000
Yes, we are anti. 
We are anti whatever that is, 

735
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,520
that's a conspiracy charges that
is premeditated. 

736
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:10,560
Dude, I mean, we, we arrest them
at at inception of the plan, 

737
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:17,280
like this is dateline and he's 
he's like, we find we even get 

738
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,640
whiff of this plan. 
We're going in because it's just

739
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:25,040
like, wait a minute, you 
designed a fox to seduce a four 

740
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,800
year old? 
And an island to trap. 

741
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:31,160
Him and a whole he made a whole 
island. 

742
00:44:31,720 --> 00:44:36,760
He he Epstein this and he like, 
Oh no. 

743
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,080
I was gonna I was gonna say 
China because China's making man

744
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:43,920
made islands in the Pacific to 
combat US naval presence and 

745
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:45,880
power projection in the in the 
Pacific. 

746
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,480
But no, Epstein is a much better
apartment and more layman 

747
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:53,960
comparison. 
So that's this is yeah, this 

748
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:58,200
gets worse the more we look. 
At yeah, Robonic has an Epstein 

749
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,960
island. 
Not cool? 

750
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:06,840
Yeah, not cool. 
Robotic. 

751
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,760
This got way worse than I 
thought it was ever going to be.

752
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,600
Well, I mean, it was always 
going to be bad. 

753
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,440
It was always going to. 
Be made a child fox. 

754
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:22,720
We we don't know. 
I mean it's a robot, but yeah, I

755
00:45:22,720 --> 00:45:26,160
think like he designed the robot
to have a mind. 

756
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:30,280
Does this mind is the mind of 
like a four year old to like mix

757
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:35,280
with tails or is the mind like 
that of a of a 30 something 

758
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:36,680
year? 
Like how did he program this 

759
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:43,160
mind to seduce this fox? 
Yeah. 

760
00:45:43,240 --> 00:45:44,480
That's the problem. 
That's. 

761
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:46,440
Concerted programming. 
That's that's all. 

762
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,080
That's all I can say. 
It's concerted programming. 

763
00:45:49,720 --> 00:45:52,280
He programmed that fox, that 
robot fox. 

764
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,840
This is one of those things 
where I'm just like, yeah, no 

765
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,880
one in the writers room asked a 
single question. 

766
00:45:57,880 --> 00:45:59,800
No, they were. 
They were just like, let's do 

767
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,120
it. 
Cause on the on the surface, 

768
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,680
this is classic Looney Tunes. 
This is Bugs Bunny dressing up 

769
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:08,080
as a hot as a hot babe for Elmer
Fudd, right? 

770
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,400
Yeah. 
But the difference there is 

771
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:12,720
it's. 
Funny. 

772
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,000
Bugs Bunny is definitely Yeah. 
It's funny. 

773
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:17,120
He doesn't. 
Good. 

774
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:23,800
Also also Bugs Bunny is a is a 
gay icon 1000% yeah that helps 

775
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,000
the amount of cross dressing 
Bugs Bunny does but yes. 

776
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:31,080
Yeah, Robotnik's not a gay icon,
so he can't get away with this, 

777
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,040
No. 
He's a bear, but not not a not a

778
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:38,680
very good gay bear. 
Yeah, so weird. 

779
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,040
Weird plan from Robotnac. 
It's a weird plan. 

780
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,320
They kind of justify it. 
They kind of justify it by 

781
00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:47,240
saying, well, I have this robot,
this spare robot lying around. 

782
00:46:47,240 --> 00:46:48,880
So I guess this is the plan 
we're going with. 

783
00:46:49,240 --> 00:46:52,520
Like that, that that was the 
working with what you have. 

784
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:54,720
It's like, OK, I can kind of 
see. 

785
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,760
I mean, I don't know, I feel 
like that's him trying to 

786
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:00,800
justify it to himself. 
Yeah, like this was like what, 

787
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:04,640
like predetermined, but he like 
saying it out loud so that like 

788
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:08,000
Snively is around so that he can
be like, hold on, maybe this is 

789
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,280
weird. 
This is this is him being like, 

790
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:15,480
well, I just happen to have this
like hot fox robot that I've 

791
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,640
made. 
I guess I can use it to seduce 

792
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,800
this like child fox. 
The the he's he's saying it out 

793
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:26,120
loud in case crabmeats there so 
he can be like, yeah, OK, I 

794
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,960
guess that's a plan because we 
just went straight up and was 

795
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,600
like, I got this fox. 
I'm going to seduce the other 

796
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,840
fox with that's four years old. 
Crabmeat or even snively would 

797
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,240
be like, I don't know, dude, 
that sounds kind of fucked. 

798
00:47:37,240 --> 00:47:41,440
I don't know what your plan here
is, but this is that's I mean 

799
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,520
your your plans normally don't 
make sense, but this makes less 

800
00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:46,960
sense than normal. 
I don't see the end game. 

801
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,200
That's, that's one of my 
favorite things that just, I 

802
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:53,040
think I've done this multiple 
times where it's, it's like, OK,

803
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,960
here's the plan. 
We do this, this, this, this, 

804
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,280
this and this. 
And then someone else chimes in.

805
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,040
Wouldn't it be just be easier to
just do this? 

806
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,800
And then it's just like, that 
was the answer. 

807
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,040
It's like way less, way less 
problematic, way less 

808
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,720
convoluted. 
But now you've got the the the 

809
00:48:07,720 --> 00:48:12,520
added spin here is that there is
like straight up child predator 

810
00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,360
charges that you can file 
against Robotnik for this 

811
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:19,040
situation. 
If you think about it, the same 

812
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:25,520
exact plan works if it's just an
not not like some robot fox that

813
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,600
trying to like convince Tales to
like sleep with him and stuff. 

814
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:33,480
If it's just some helpless robot
citizen that you made like some 

815
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,920
helpless pedestrian and you just
have them programmed to say help

816
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,600
me, help me and Tales is still 
going to do the same thing. 

817
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:43,600
You kind of went above and 
beyond having him, like, want to

818
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:48,360
have sex with this robot? 
Never mind that actually reminds

819
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,520
me that that that actually does 
remind me of an American dad 

820
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:56,560
joke where Steve, the nerd son, 
he's being bullied and he goes, 

821
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,240
you know what I'm going to do? 
I'm going to dress up as a girl.

822
00:48:59,240 --> 00:49:00,600
That way you fall in love with 
me. 

823
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:02,920
And then when you're and then we
and then we have sex. 

824
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,760
And then in the middle of sex, I
take off the wig and then you 

825
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,080
and then you find out how you 
were having gay sex the whole 

826
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:09,360
time. 
And then I make fun of you and 

827
00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,480
then everyone makes fun of you 
that you had gay sex. 

828
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,520
And then another character is 
like, OK, let you just needed to

829
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,320
do this. 
Do not need to go into that 

830
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:24,720
whole thing. 
Yeah, essentially my other 

831
00:49:24,720 --> 00:49:29,320
question, Robotnik says the 
line. 

832
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:33,840
They are indistinguishable from 
real animals, these robots. 

833
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:37,600
They are. 
You think he's like you think 

834
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:42,840
he's skinning animals, using 
their real fur to make these 

835
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:45,200
animal those these animal 
robots. 

836
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:47,000
That could be or. 
Do you think they're made out of

837
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:52,840
synthetic fur? 
Artificial the the P the child 

838
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,200
answer. 
The PG answer is that it is. 

839
00:49:56,240 --> 00:50:00,080
It is artificial, but I like 
that really dark. 

840
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,400
I think he's skinning scars. 
Yeah, I think so there. 

841
00:50:03,720 --> 00:50:06,480
And that opens up a whole new 
Ave. for his fascism for his for

842
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:08,520
his evil plans. 
Whereas like, hey, I am 

843
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:12,720
literally abducting these these 
helpless animals and skinning 

844
00:50:12,720 --> 00:50:14,880
them to to combat. 
That's that's fucked up. 

845
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:19,080
That's good, good, good thought.
I, I, yeah, I will. 

846
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:26,840
I will give a, a single writing 
point for how the whole genesis 

847
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:32,440
of this story begins with Sonic 
being like, yo, dude, I'm sorry.

848
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:33,680
I know I beat the shit out of 
you. 

849
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:35,920
I slapped you around. 
Like he literally says I slapped

850
00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:37,400
you around. 
I'm really sorry about that. 

851
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,320
And like that causes OK, cause 
and effect. 

852
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,040
I like that. 
I think that's really cool. 

853
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:44,600
It's not just tail. 
It is Tails going off on his own

854
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,520
again. 
But there was a clear thing from

855
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:52,280
the last story that I really, I,
I admired that. 

856
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:57,720
It does feel like we're finally 
getting some like cause action 

857
00:50:57,720 --> 00:51:01,680
right, some consequences to some
of the stories that are 

858
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:04,360
happening. 
Consequence I'm that's so that's

859
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:10,040
such yes, 100%. 
So I'm actually I, this is 

860
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:14,040
probably the most invested I've 
been in, even if I wasn't like 

861
00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:18,320
incredibly happy with the story.
I'm interested because it seems 

862
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,640
like they're going to start 
dealing with things that happen.

863
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,000
They they brought in the junior 
freedom fighters. 

864
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,200
They brought in the junior 
freedom fighters, even if just 

865
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,680
for like an attack in the last 
story, right? 

866
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,000
Just just to help. 
All right, Yeah. 

867
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:32,480
We're fleshing out the You have 
characters and you're using 

868
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:36,320
them. 
Yep, I'm I'm excited. 

869
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,000
I I think. 
I think you're right. 

870
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:44,200
Where according to the reading 
order from the Thanks Contenders

871
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:50,240
blog, I think the cut off the to
the next area, which is going to

872
00:51:50,240 --> 00:51:54,880
be years 95 through 97 is where 
it's going to start really 

873
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:59,560
picking up. 
I will say, yeah, so I'm, I'm on

874
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,200
ironically, like I'm excited to 
see where this is going. 

875
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:07,920
And then prediction for next 
issue is that the robot grows a 

876
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:11,000
conscience and then saves tales 
of the. 

877
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:12,840
Last minute, see, that's 
obviously what's going to 

878
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:17,240
happen, but that's going to I'm 
already like worried about what 

879
00:52:17,240 --> 00:52:18,920
that's going to start implying, 
right? 

880
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:24,320
If it's a robot that like saves 
the day, then that means that 

881
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,920
these robots and and we've 
hinted at those that they can 

882
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:31,800
think, they can feel and change 
their minds, right. 

883
00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:37,600
And So what, what kind of world 
are we setting up where robot, I

884
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:41,760
mean Sonic being the goody 22 
shoes that he is, we're we're 

885
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:46,760
creating a world where robots 
are such an easy, safe thing to 

886
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:49,320
do because they're programmed to
be evil, right? 

887
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:52,520
They're programmed to not have a
conscience. 

888
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:56,200
So the moment you start playing 
and messing with that, which for

889
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,600
the record, I'm here for, I 
think that's interesting 

890
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,280
storytelling and I want to see 
like what direction to go with. 

891
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:06,240
But in terms of child comics, in
terms of child is maybe not the 

892
00:53:06,240 --> 00:53:09,080
right word. 
Comics for kids, for teens, and.

893
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,720
Comics directed towards youth 
and then read by 30 year old 

894
00:53:12,720 --> 00:53:17,720
adults because they're idiots. 
The implications of these robots

895
00:53:17,720 --> 00:53:23,040
growing in conscience is going 
to throw a rock into whatever 

896
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:27,240
plans these riders are creating.
Because now every single swap, 

897
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:31,480
every single crab you see, 
you're like, well can they? 

898
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:33,040
Can they grow? 
Can they change? 

899
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:38,440
And Sonic is killing them, 
right? 

900
00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,400
Yeah. 
You you, you create robots so 

901
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:44,480
you don't have to ask those 
questions. 

902
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:49,680
And so giving these robots that 
type of conscious I think is 

903
00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:54,280
maybe a. 
It opens up a can. 

904
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:56,360
Of worms, maybe. 
Yeah, it opens up a can of 

905
00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:58,320
worms. 
I don't think they're prepared 

906
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:04,680
to answer, and you can't really 
close the can of worms once 

907
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,480
they're opened. 
Kind of like Pandora's box. 

908
00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:11,880
A can of Pandora. 
That's that's what we'll say. 

909
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,880
That's what I was thinking too, 
and that's the issue. 

910
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:18,720
Only 390 left to go.
