EPISODE 08: THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON
*end prog rock guitar*
Just in case you forgot, we're going to remind you that you should feel guilty for being alive because EVERYONE IS DEEAAAAAD.
Now then!
You get three guesses as to which side of this moon is the dark one.
The first two don't count.
Warships emerge from the dark side of the moon and it just so happens to be the Titans. Jerid is planning to fuck up again, and it's apparent that we'll be watching this tremendous fuckup not much farther into this episode. But until that happens, let's check up on our friends aboard the Argama!
Invisible...
...you know this is just too easy.
Kamille whines, Emma bitches at him, Kamille opens the door and starts his ranting until--
--his voice cuts off into a slight gasp, "Oh, Lieutenant--"
Look at that smirk.
Just look at it.
Emma gives him a look as if she knows that this is bullshit.
Quattro tries flirting with Kamille, even offers that "a bit of a workout could help" and Kamille's too pissy to cave in to Lt. Quattro's wiley ways just yet.
Kamille's experiencing more PMS than a teenaged girl and Emma retorts with a tl;dr "TOO BAD 8)" and closes the door.
...On Lt. Quattro.
"..."
So he walks away.
He'll get that Kamille one day.
Cue a lounge piano and we have Kamille bitching at Emma and Emma being right about everything compared to Kamille's denials. After all, LIKE KAMILLE WOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE A NEWTYPE. OHOHO.
Kamille tries to leave saying he's going for that "workout" Quattro suggested, but Emma won't give up that easily. So now we have Emma chasing Kamille all around the Argama, talking about the legendary Amuro.
We get flashbacks of a Beverly Hills Amuro as Emma recollects a moment she had on Earth. Which is funny, because I'm not going to bother screencapping this but I definately saw what looked to be Sarah as Emma's "girlfriend" in this but I figured Sarah was way too young to be chilling out with Emma. Who knows. WHO CARES.
KAMILLE AND EMMA ENTER THE HANGAR
QUATTRO IS WATCHING
PUSH THE BUTTON, QUATTRO. PUSH IT.
...so he does!
Emma you're blocking the way. Quattro's glasses are not meant to reflect anybody of legal age.
Then again, Dat Emma's Ass sort of gets noticed a lot.
Quattro's listening to Emma lament about Amuro.
Since Quattro's shades are so badass we cannot see the water in his eyes quiver. So the aviators themselves quiver with emotion instead.
Emma and Kamille continue to bitch at each other.
"Well if you feel like that then maybe you'll find Char Aznable somewhere aboard this ship."
Oh, Kamille! Don't be ridiculous!
Argue argue argue!
Cue the dramatic SHIT'S ABOUT TO GO DOWN music and Kamille snaps at Emma, "Well, it sounds like you've already met Char."
"Huh?"
*QUATTROZOOM*
They then argue about what Kamille had just said.
THEN THE ENEMY ATTACKS. KAMILLE AND EMMA ARE THROWN FROM THE MK II.
PIMP POWERS ARE GO!
So Jerid's headed for the Argama and the Argama is plotting how to get away from the Titans. Part of this plan involves sending out Kamille in the Mk II to shake off Jerid with the assistance of Quattro.
"That's a relief."
Kamille has been sarcastic this whole episode, almost painfully so, but it seems so funny this time around.
Graaaaaaaaaaahr mecha fight!
Jerid and Kamille then bounce around on the moon.
:3
EPIC BATTERU--
Quattro arrives to help Kamille and Jerid wonders where his reinforcements are.
Too bad everyone hates you, Jerid, you get no reinforcements.
Quattro rushing to Kamille's aid!
These mobile suits look like adorable schoolgirls on the playground to me. I have no idea why.
*IS WEIRD*
Kamille apologizes to Quattro, the first and only heartfelt thing Kamille has spoken this entire episode. So they head back to the Argama, the mechanics griping about the damaged leg on the Mk II, and Quattro gives mixed praise and criticism to Kamille while Emma watches because yeah Kamille you're totally not a Newtype or anything.
Poor Emma. She just can't compete with that strangely charismatic man. :(
So our sparkly warships all land at Granada.
PEA COATS!
LANDSCAPING!
And where is our shady lieutenant going to?!
What a snazzy looking place this is!
Who are these children?!
CERTAINLY NOBODY I KNOW!
There's a knock at the door. A man enters.
Things progress.
...to discussions about what is clearly a Nuclear Engine Pulse.
You know this reminds me of this one time I lost my glasses. I had to take them off and I gave them to my cat to hold but the cat walked away. My eyesight sucks without them so I put on a pair of sunglasses to try and find them. But it was night and I was in the basement. I COULDN'T SEE SHIT. Eventually I found them but I don't recall where or how.
Anyway.
Huhuh.
Quattro does not approve of this situation. He gets a message on a video phone.
Quattro pays fifteen dollars for a five second message asking him out for burgers.
THE FUTURE!
Unamused Space Nazis.
Jerid returns only to have Jamaican order him to be thrown in the brig AT ONCE! But before Jerid Goes To Jail begins, he has a chat with his BFF Kackrikon. Many pauses in speech and suspicious tones of voice are heard but I take long enough as it is to write these things up.
[I would like to point out that THIS is the spot I left off at for like three weeks. OR LONGER OH MY GOD I AM SO SORRY GUYS. Okay let me kickstart my brain uhhh.]
Kamille and Emma go for a road trip on the moon, talking about how awesome their sleep was the night before. Awkwaaard.
LOOOOOOOOOOK! IT'S CANDY MOUNTAAAAAAAAIN!
Okay so it's a "metal mountain" my mistake.
IT'S THE REMAINS OF A COLONY DROP!
MORE PEACOATS IN THE AWESOME FUTURE. NOTICE HOW THE GUY WITH THE PINK DUFFELBAG IS CLEARLY FOLLOWING HIM. Details, my friends. Details.
THE BURGER SHOP! MACDANIEL'S!
Dooooohohoho copyright dodging.
EXCUSE ME, LAD, I WOULD LIKE TO ORDER SOME FRIES.
WAIT YOU LOOK FAMILIAR.
Awesomeman Henken leads Quattro into a secret room, where a bunch of men in suits are apparently smoking every cigar on the moon's surface.
D'aw, Earth.
What's going on now is that Quattro is explaining why he didn't want these guys launching an attack on Jaburo. It's important. Except not really. (Well okay it is but I've been skipping over intricate plot details. That's for YOU to pick up when you watch this series, riiiiight?)
The pictures. ♥
Hmm but they spelled it right here for the rocking horse cowboy about to commit suicide with a sickle.
Henken
where are you even looking
Emma: KAMILLE I TOLD YOU 88MPH WAS TOO FAST!
Suddenly they're getting shot at!
Kamille shouts simply, "EMMA, OUT."
And gives her a gentle shove that sends her FLYING out of the speeding vehicle right where the bad guys are pursuing.
It's okay, though, Kamille was just messing with you. He jumps from the car, too, since it is obviously faster to run on foot.
Wait.
So the Titans and our Dynamic Duo are involved in a shootout in space. Emma recognizes them immediately, and says the man's name with a sneer, "Cockrikan."
"W-wait did Emma just s-say..."
Yeah.
Cockrikan.
KAMILLE DECIDES TO THROW SOMETHING!
AND WHAT IS THAT STANGE BRIGHTLY COLORED OBJECT IN THAT PILE OF METAL?
JESUS WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT.
KAMILLE SCREAMS IN HORROR AS A GHOST HARO APPEARS.
I MEAN A RAPE HARO.
BAD HAROS, BAD BAD HAROS.
Kamille only looks at it for a second because he's got shit to deal with, namely a bunch of crazed Space Nazis shooting at him.
OH JESUS LOOK AT ITS BEADY RED EYES STARING HUNGRILY RIGHT AT YOU
KAMILLE IS PANTING IN STRESS AND FEAR AND
KAMILLE THAT IS HARDLY APPROPRIATE
Kamille grabs Haro and runs. He finds Emma again and we're back where we started.
In the vehicle, +1 Haro.
One hungry, hungry Haro, looking at Dat Emma.
