The Masters are testing the Bioroid Triumvirate drones..
"The Three Who Act as One; faster than any micronian pilot..."
"EXTERMINATE!"
"...huh?"
"EXTERMINATE!"
"EXTERMINATE!"
The drones immediately turn on the three Masters and blast them apart before the special effects guys hit the kill switch...
"Okay, who outsourced the drone models to the BBC?"
"Er...well, they had them laying around the warehouse and the Beb was offering them for a good rental price..."
"Great, then the clone re-stocking's coming out of YOUR paycheck..."

[taalismn]

General Edwards' Icarus is lining up on Breetai and the Regent for the killing betrayl shot...
"Fire!"
"Sir! The cannon! It's not responding!"
"WHAT?!"
"IN fact...Sir! We can't dump the charge! It's ov---"
(The Icarus explodes)

(meanwhile, on the other side of Optera...A Haydonite is repeatedly beating another Haydonite's head into a console, while the other Haydonites are looking around, like "..oh great...")
"Veidt, you numbskull! I told you not to test the Disruptor Wave! Not yet! NOT YET!!!"

[Aramanthus]

ROFLMAO!!! Ah weapon testing! Now that explains their problem! At least the ship didn't blow up when they fired their disruptor! And just think it didn't cost some clones their lives.

"Sir, shouldn't we jettison the false nose first?"
"What? And ruin the surprise those guys are going to get? Naw, the cannon will just shoot right through it! It's not like it's substantial, or going to spike the muzzle or anything...So just fire the damn thing already!"
(dubiously) "...okaaayyyy...firing..."

***BBBOOOOOO***

Zand:(On Optera) "Oops...forgot to carry the one..."

Grant: "Okay...that's different...He was supposed to wait for US to blow him up, not blow himself up first..."

[DhAkael]

Rick Hunter (Adm. ret.); *Faceplam* "Let me get this straight...and use LITTLE words please..."

The-duo-Known-as-Jack-McKinney; "Well, Haydon is actualy god, or goddess if you ask the Praxians. The Invid Regis is now her own dimension, Louis Nicholas and Emil Lang both "Exalted" (Cr, Tm.) by cybernetics and protoculture respectively...oh, and Zor's last clone and Minmei just gave birth to Zor. So Zor is his own father. OH, one last thing! Lisa never lost her baby and Myria's second kid turns into some spooky J-Horror prophetess instead of a kick-asp pilot!"

Rick Hunter; "You have GOT to be kidding me!!!!!"

Maia Sterling (with long blue-green hair and clear-as-glass eyes, wearing laurel of protoculture flowers); "You're telling me! Look at this *points to summer dress and flower-wreath* I'm some kinda hippy-freak! and where are my (censored)?! *pointing at chest* Do you know how many writers I had to beat within an inch of their lives to get them? How am I ever gonna attract the callow-youth hero character now?"

TDKAJM; "Um...it seemed like a good idea at the time?"

Camera pulls back from SDF-3 as a single, plaid & kahki clad figure is ejected from an airlock.

[taalismn]

Sera lands on the island to investigate the micronian resistance fighters, jumps out of her RCB, and...
*CRUNCH*
...breaks her ankle on landing...
"...medic!...."

Lancer chases Sera back to her RCB, where she attempts to jump up into the cockpit pod...
*WUNCH*
He face-palms as Sera slides down the side of her mecha, out cold from slamming into the leg....

Lancer chases Sera back to her RCB, where she attempts to jump up into the cockpit pod...
"Oh damn...I locked the keys inside it...."
He face-palms as she slides down the side of the leg on her back, totally frustrated...

Lancer chases Sera back to her RCB, where she attempts to jump up into the cockpit pod...
"Could you give me a boost here?"
He face-palms as she dangles from the lower rim of the pod, unable to QUITE make it all the way up and in...
'
(They FINALLY) get Sera into the RCB)
*FWWWOOOSSHHHH*
...and she pretty well toasts Lancer on the takeoff, as he goes running, shirt and hair smoldering, back to the creek to jump in and extinguish himself...

Corg faces off against Scott Bernard and everybody else near the island. Corg charges Scott, then flies right past him right at Lancer...
"You! The purple-haired one! I want YOU!"
"Me? What did I ever do? If it's about that incident with the blone, I can---"
"NO! I don't mean revenge! I mean I want YOU! I find you very attractive, Human, and wish to mate with you!"
Lancer goes bugeyed, and jumps off the ship and into the jungle, screaming....
Corg turns his mecha to face off-camera to where the rest of the cast is watching...
"You're right, Magruder, he IS easy to freak out!"

[Aramanthus]

ROFLMAO!!!! Those were some great ones! I guess Lancer will have to stop dressing up in womens clothing if he doesn't want fans like Corg!

[taalismn]

What you DIDN'T see....

-Bernard and Crew with the patrolboat stuck on a reef.....
Rand: "You can navigate at supersonic speeds across air and space and you CAN'T read a depth and channel chart?!"

-Marlene/Ariel stealing Bernard's clothes while he's bathing...chortling "Turnabout's fair play!" as he starts out after her...only to realize they're in plain sight of everybody else...

--Rook, fighting in the bar, grabs one knife-weilder's arm and slams the weapon back..."GAH!" into Rand's leg..."Okay, folks, we're going to re-shoot this scene, only Rand's going to be standing over HERE throwing glasses!""Ack! NOW they figure that out!"

---Maxwell, messing with the remote controls in his suite; "Dammnit! Why aren't those Alphas flying?!"...Indeed, the Alpha fighters are still in his front room, utterly motionless...
Meanwhile, down in Maxwell's garage, his limo is busy beating itself to death against the garage walls...

[taalismn]

ROFLMAO!!!! Those were some great ones! I guess Lancer will have to stop dressing up in womens clothing if he doesn't want fans like Corg!

Heh...

Actually, watching that blooper reel again, I think Lancer would have a better chance of avoiding Corg if he stays in drag, as apparently Corg likes his men "manly" looking...or at least resembling John Travolta/Adam from Perfect...

"Lancer? Why are you dressed like Dame Judy Dench?"
"Quiet, Rand! Corg's out there!"
"You do realize Magruder put him up to it just to see you squirm?"

[Aramanthus]

ROFLMAO!!! Corg is incorgiable! Hopefully Lancer can keep out of Corg's sight! Although if he want Lancer he might get him.

[taalismn]

Corg and Lancer, arm and arm, go waltzing through the shot, singing 'Oh so pretty, so pretty..."
Bernard, who at that moment is trying to shoot the scene in New Denver with Marlene, cracks up...

Rand and Rook challenge each other to Extreme Dryer Riding in the laundromat...

Marlene watches in horror in the department store as Scott gets his leg stuck in the escalator....

[taalismn]

Macross ERa:

Max Sterling's VF comes screaming through the back of Breetai's bridge post, flies between the two Zentraedi...
Then promptly smacks into the bubble canopy, goes splay-limbed like a bug on a windshield(only on the INSIDE this time) and slides to the floor...
Exedore taps the bubble perspex. "New bubble?"
"Custom job....rank hath its privileges."

[taalismn]

From R:TSC RPG Deluxe Edition:"Like the 'Fantoma' class, the "Omicron"-class dreadnought is named for the sector in which it was first encountered, in accordance with UEEF Fleet reporting name conventions."

---This could be trouble:

Haydonite Ship Captain: "Surely there must be a mistake...Surely the Humans have given the system some other name for their cataloguing! Something like 'Alpha Ceti' or 'Procyon Sigma' or something like that! Or maybe the Tirolians catalogued the system and assigned it a name! Anything!"

Haydonite Taskforce Commander: "Afraid not. If anything the Terrans ARE using the original Tirolian system designation. And the Tirolians weren't terribly impressed by what they found in that system..."

HSC: "Argh! I wasn't planning on being seen by anybody when I dropped out of Foldspace and into that desert system just to drop some spare mass!..."

HTC: "Too bad for you there was a UEEF recon group there...Well, you're stuck with it now...You and every other captain of what the UEEF is calling a 'S%#!*hole-class cruiser."

[Rathorc Lemenger]

*During the Miss Macross contest Minmei comes walking out onto the stage wearing a brightly colored costume, then assumes a pose while the judges stare at her with slack mouths.*

Minmei: I fight for truth, justice, and pretty kittens.

*After a few seconds, Captain Gloval stands and brings out a laser pistol from an inside breast pocket. He then shoots Minmei in the forehead.*

Gloval: That’s it, I couldn’t stand it any more. I could only put up with so much “Sailor Scout” junk. That was the last stray (although the “Baka Rangers*” were pretty funny).

*See the Negima series for the pun. R.L.

Aftermath of Battle: SDF-1:

Sammy: All sections reporting in...all clear..
Vanessa: Damage minimal
Claudia: Enemy has withdrawn beyond sensor range
Lisa: Air patrol is up...all other planes have been restrieved...
Kim: Com frequencies read clear.
Gloval: It's been a long sixteen hours...Lisa, you're to rotate out and get some rest..
Lisa: I feel it...See yah next shift(leaves out the back)
Vanessa: Oops; last report from damage control; bridge tower elevator's out...
(Everybody groans)
GlovaL: Oh well, guess we're taking the stairs back to our quarters..
(Meanwhile...shot of darkened elevator shaft...Lisa's clutching onto the cables in the middle of the shaft, looking VERY awake...
"HELP! Anybody!?")

[Aramanthus]

LMAO!!! Those were great! Now only if the man of Lisa's dreams would come and rescue her! And then he'd probably sweep Minmei off her feet too.

[taalismn]

Rick gets on elebator and hits the 'up' button.
("Hmmm....I wonder where Lisa is? Maybe she'll go out with me! Nah...")
Meanwhile...up the shaft, Lisa hears machinery moving below...
"Oh s*%%%^&..."

Southern Cross:
15th ATAC wardroom...Louie's messing with his pistol while everybody else is hanging out. He finishes polishing it up, and gives it a gunslinger's spin...
!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!
Everybody dives for cover as random shots scream through the air...
"LOUIE!!!!!"
"...sorry..."
"Erg...everybody all right? Any injuries?"
"Nope...I'm fine"
"Check."
"Floor-burn, but otherwise okay."
"...ack...*THUD*"
"New guy's dead."
"Crud...I heard we were being assigned somebody new today...What was his name?"
"'Doppler', ma'am..Corporal Doppler"
"Thanks, Angie...Guess we'll have have to write him off as 'killed in action'"
"Hey, I'm REALLY sorry..."
"Shut up, Louie..."

[taalismn]

"Too bad we'll never know why his academy nickname was 'Pulse'"...

(Dives for cover as the Pun Patrol circles back, clearing their jeep-mounted heavy weapons for action....)


Public Service Message:(clip of Dana's Hovertank from the 'Stardust' episode showing Jordan Sullivan falling out of the back to his death...)
REMEMBER: SEAT BELTS SAVE LIVES
(Sullivan becomes a smear on the rock...)
(Close-up shot of Zor-Prime in his Bioroid)
Zor Prime: "Yeah, another needless micronian death...Could have been prevented if he'd only remembered to fasten his seat belt! Now I gotta give this lady a ticket and an appointment to appear in court! You don't obey the law, you're ruining more than one person's day!"
(The Red Bioroid flies off in pursuit of Dana's hovertank...)
Bioroid Cops are waiting to enforce the law, so Clickit or Ticket!

[Aramanthus]

LMOA!!! Good thing those hover tank pilots are covered by Gecko insurance! That way they can be replaced in days instead of never. We rely on ClonesR'US for replacing those poor unfortunates who've forgotten their safety belts. Of course we do make sure they have to attend safety classes to make sure they operate their hover tanks asfely!

[taalismn]

Macross Arc...
Max approaches Rick, while the latter is having coffee and a sandwich:
Max: "Rick, I'm getting married..."
Rick: "Mwha-*GACK*hurghurghurg---errrmm*THUD*"(chokes on his sandwich and promptly falls face first into his coffee)
Max: "Rick?...Rick?"(prods him...he's dead.)
(Max gets up, looks both ways, then seeing nobody, runs for the door)
Miriya: "How did it go? Aren't you going to introduce me to your commanding officer?"
Max: "MIr...trust me on this; we weren't here, I wasn't over there...okay? Anybody asks, we were still in the park, making out!"

"take him to "The Rack"!"
*four zent red uniformed gaurds take Lynn Kyle to a zent sized dish rack and tie him to it*

"Sir...aren't we supposed to pre-rinse him before putting him on the rack?"(holds up firehose)
"We're using Calgonite! WE don't HAVE to pre-rinse!"
(Ad spokeswoman comes on)
Spokeswoman: "And he'll come out sparkling and streak-free!"

[Aramanthus]

"Don't worry calgonite doesn't cause any damage to things it washes. Now watch as we wash this Hover Tank behind me. But first we are going to coat it with a lot of dirty." :::The hover tank is positioned near a muddy section of a tank trainning ground. Then vehicles start passing the hover tank. The vehicles continue passing continously for almost a half hour in a stream of heavy ground vehicles. The hover tank is completely coated in dirt. They use a specialized vehicle to move it into a relatively small room with many water jet projections from each wall, including to the ceiling and the floor.::: "We are placing a camera in the room to show the cleaning process of calgonite. Here I am about to turning on the washing room with the calgonite to clean the awaiting hover tank." :::He pushes a large "Red" button and stands back and watches the little room from the outside. After a brief period of time the sounds of jetting water comes to an end. Then the door goes in.::: "We seemed to have a problem with our camera in the washer. But no big deal, everything will be fine." :::He walks into the empty room and looks around.::: "WHAT the #!&&! We seemed to have a problem, the hover tank seems to have been totally washed away." :::He steps forward and his foot connects with some small piece of metal. He looks down and sees a piece of the barrel of the hover tank slowly breaking down as if it were a piece of dirt.:::

(Shot of Southern Cross troops duking it out in street-to-street fighting with pain-serumed clone soldiers...It's bloody, messy, hand to hand, point-blank fighting...
Suddenly one of the clones stops, looks at the hole and spreading bloodstain on the front of his bodysuit..)
Clone: "UGHH! Bloodstains! And my best uniform too! What am I going to do?!"
(FIghting stops as everybody looks at him...then one of the Southern Cross soldiers tosses him a detergent marker.)
ASC: "Here, dude. I always carry one of these! Never can tell when you're going to have to spot-remove a spot or stain! Goes on fast, dries in a jiff! "
Clone: "Thanks man!"(applies it to the bloodstain, which promptly washes off)"Yeah, works like a wonder!"(thumbs up to the ASC trooper he waves it off as no big deal) "YYAARRGGGHHH!!!"(charges him with raised rifle...we can see the even BIGGER hole and bloodstain in his back...)

"take him to "The Rack"!"
*four zent red uniformed gaurds take Lynn Kyle to a zent sized dish rack and tie him to it*

Kyle: "At least it's a dishwasher, and not a washing machine...I get motion sickness from all that tumbling and churning..."

[Aramanthus]

ROFLMAO!!! That waas a great one! I don't think that is going to remove the stain the second time!

[taalismn]

"Scott! You traitor!"(draws H-90) **ZIST!*
"YOUUWWWGGGG!!!"
"Oops...sorry, Alex..."
"....you shot me in the groin..."
"Well, um, sorry about that...hay, where did Scott and that Invid spy get to?..."


"Er...Ariel?"
"Scott, did I ever tell you I get REALLY turned on by danger situations?"

[drewkitty ~..~]

"Scott! You traitor!"(draws H-90) **ZIST!*
"YOUUWWWGGGG!!!"
"Oops...sorry, Alex..."
"....you shot me in the groin..."
"Well, um, sorry about that...hay, where did Scott and that Invid spy get to?..."

Scott*turns to the camera while the rest of the scene freezes*"Good thing I was wearing my New Froot of the Loom armored underpants or that would of ruined my sex life. Lets see if he remmebered his"
*Scott turns as the rest of the scene unfreezes, boots Marcus in the crotch, as Marcus doubls over in pain Scott Turns back to the camera*
"I Guess he didn't"

[Aramanthus]

LOL!!! Those are some great ones! I'm not sure ClonesR'US can do anything about being shot in a sensitive area like that. As their present representative I think you're in trouble man!

[taalismn]

(Ariel teleports to the Moon to warn Scott)
*FWOFH*
"Eek! Oops! Sorry, didn't mean that! Wrong part of the base!"
*FWOFH*
Reinhardt blinks at where a red-headed woman just appeared in his bathroom while he was shaving, then vanished...shakes his head...
"Okay...no more Star Trek marathons to unwind...that stuff will warp your mind..."

[Aramanthus]

LOL That was a great one! What sort of nightmares that could generate boggles the mind! (Watching you know what that is.)

[taalismn]

Scott Bernard flies to Rand's rescue from his Invid pursuers...He fires his Cyclone missiles...
..and hits Rand instead...
Instant Script Rewrite...
"Oops..."

"I'm Okay!!! But like HELL I'm going to trust that trigger-happy, half-blind, maniac!"
"Hey!"

[Aramanthus]

Scott is immediately sent to get his eyes checked. It's found that he needs glasses!

[taalismn]

Rand sees a nude Ariel...his frontier modesty and innate fear of lurking menfolk kicks in and he spins around..
Only to smack into a supporting beam..
He slides to the ground, dazed, and falls onto his back...
...hears a groaning of timbers, looks up, realizes the Invid-damaged structure just got the straw that broke its back...
...and as the building begins to collapse on him, he gets out a much-put-upon "But I hardly saw ANYTHING, honest!"

[Aramanthus]

Luycky for him Scott if getting his glasses or else there might be a different story there!

[DhAkael]

Maximillian Jenius (Or Sterling for you Gaijin) sits in his set-chair, polishing his perscription spectacles and carelessly combs back his hair with his finger tips while watching take-after-take-after-take with Scott Bernard.

M.J. / S; "Rick / Hikaru? Was I ever that bad when I first joined Vermillion?"

R.H. / H.I.; "Nope, you had the sense god gave a shovel. At least you admitted you needed...HEADS UP!"

-BOOOMMMMMM!-

Large sections of set erupt in pyrotechnics as Scott Bernard does another Itano Circus.

Max (looking up from his spot lying on the ground); "60 missiles.... 60 missiles to take out ONE crab?!"

Director; "CUT!!!!! Someone get me accounting! The bean counter is gonna <censored for 20 minutes> when her hears we blew another $1.5 million on pyro! Set up for take 32!"

[taalismn]

Last Thought of Lone Invid Scout upon seeing a Scott Bernard missile storm coming at him...

"I feel so...loved..."

Rand collapses during the sandstorm....comes out of his delusion to discover...
"We are the Faerie-Folk of El Gato! You have trespassed and disturbed our sacred faerie circle.."
(indeed, he checks...he HAS fallen into a circle of mushrooms inexplicably growing in the middle of a desert)
"...and you must be PUNISHED!"
"Personally, I say we make you boogie-woogie 'til you puke, but the radicals are holding out that we turn you into a burro..."
"...llama..."
"...whatever..."
"..but Princess Toadstool thinks you're cute..."
"Which has her boyfriend, Prince Garlic, wanting to inflict you with the Curse of Thousand Chiggers..."
(Rand is by this time desperately looking for ANOTHER rock to bash his head open on...)

[Aramanthus]

ROFLMAO!!! Those were some great ones! As long as the chia pets don't get involved we will be fine!

As for that poor lone invid! I would feel sorry for except that he is coverwed by ClonesRUS. So he is safe!

Everybody's standing around, staring at the end of the Masters' mothership...some folks have already paired off...Bowie's holding Musica...Dennis Brown's holding Nova Satori...the mood is somber
Suddenly a man stumbles out of some bushes nearby...it's Lieutenant Komodo(remember him?), looking thin, travel-worn, beat-up, tired, his boots worn to shreds, his uniform ripped up...He catches sight of the gathered soldiers and he starts grinning like a maniac as he steps forward..
"Hey guys, guess what? I managed to get into an escape pod before my ship blew! I musta been the last one out! But I almost died anyway! The pod was defective! Almost burned up on re-entry!

[taalismn]

Komodo fires off his missile battery without orders, and, as everybody watches the unauthorized launch arc into the sky, various officials screaming what knucklehead went and ignored direct orders, the missiles home in on the huge hunk of superior alien technology and...and...
*BLAM*
*Ffffffffwwwwwwhwwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhhhhttttttttttttt*

...The Robotech Masters' flagship deflates, revealing it to be nothing more than a giant blimp, with a Salan-cruiser sized 'gondola'...

Evidentally the Protoculture shortage was a bit more severe than anticipated...

Bowkaz: "Well ^**&!!, they just called our bluff! Let's get the HELL out of here!"

[taalismn]

Robotech Master: "Say, I've got a capital notion! Let's have the life support in the clone quarters altered for a higher balance of helium in the air!"
Robotech Masters: "Oh yeah! I say we do it!"
Later:
Karno:(Giving report to the Masters in his rather screeching treble-tone voice) "Milords, the micronians have deployed their forces around the moon..."( only it's coming out more like 'milogs, da mycownans waf depo'ed der forwces awond der woon'...and he's clearly trying to stop from foaming at the mouth as the Masters are trying keep straight faces and hold back from cracking up)

[Aramanthus]

LOL I see the Masters are planning their next invasion! Disney World! That explains their plans with helium!

[drewkitty ~..~]

To bad they bought their E Tickets before DW went to the One Price scheme.

[Aramanthus]

It's a good thing the Masters booked thru Orblatz! It guarantees they either they get the price they originally paid for or else they can use their heavy particle cannons to hit it from orbit.
