LAST TIME: Die Hard, Breakfast Club, and X-Men respectively. The concept of hiding their superpowers from strangers is apparently out the window, as Chiklis, Minion, and Darla all accidentally or otherwise use their powers in such a blatant way that it can’t possible be ignored (and Tiberius was totally considering it to impress a girl). But I have the strangest feeling that it just won’t come up this episode. Don’t know why, just a gut reaction.
0:04 Hey the opening changed! Good, I really wasn’t a fan of the first one.
0:44 Hey! It’s Marie from Breaking Bad! I hope she steals something.
1:08 Nightcrawler is in this episode, apparently.
1:31 Chiklis thinks he is quite a catch.
1:58 But I am the police!
2:50 Yep, just using my telekinetic power to make pancakes. As you do!
3:28 Maybe start with telling her your REAL NAME, Minion.
4:09 Tiberius, moron, you know for a fact she likes you. She kissed you last episode, we were all there.
5:01 Hang on, how did she not see this guy who attacked her friend? She got to the house in under ten seconds. Where did the guy go?
5:20 Green Lantern and Hawkgirl?! In what universe were those two ever a couple? (Yes, I know, the Diniverse Justice League cartoon, but still. Weird choice.) Also, Marcia ships Luke Cage and Iron Fist.
5:45 There’s no reason to stay at work and, you know, work. I’m just going to go.
6:32 Hang on, Darla went and interviewed this random guy? Why? And why didn’t we get to see that?
7:08 In other news, Chiklis is an asshole.
8:29 Sex right, you talking about sex? I think you’re talking about sex.
9:06 Oh okay, not Nightcrawler, just a very showy Veil.
10:05 And now they are having a pissy competition. (And we are doing that stupid back-and-forth finish each other’s conversation thing again. Hate this.)
11:28 You…you know that she can lie, right? That being able to read minds doesn’t also mean she’s required to tell the truth?
12:14 Oh! Do that memory wipe thing. That’s a pretty cool trick that hasn’t goddamn mattered yet.
12:50 I was really worried they were only going to give Marie like thirty seconds of screen time.
14:11 WHAT? Those images don’t look the same at all!
14:41 Eat Pray Love will be such a timely reference.
15:15 Hang on, professional grade sketch artist software only costs $40? Photoshop costs over ten times more than that, and it’s a consumer product.
15:53 Man, I really hate when people say “Person A is Person A,” because it conveys literally nothing.
16:35 She is so responsible with her superpowers! (I hate her I hate her I hate her.)
17:48 That was cutest little scene that conveyed that people actually work at this office. Nice.
18:16 Marcia is trying to buy off MC Skat Kat with a smoothie.
18:50 Oh never mind, she is using a device of some kind to…steal info? Huh?
19:32 Okay extra, so, just walk down the hall like a high school student or whatever. Here, wear this scarf.
20:35 What the hell book is Chiklis reading? Is that a book about Merlin? I didn’t peg him as the fantasy type.
21:12 Oh man, this is the new fast running animation? Not a fan.
22:01 Darla made it to the house and realized she totally didn’t have a plan. Great work.
22:39 Ethan Suplee is playing the villain in this?! I guess he’s looking for a picture of a sailboat.
23:42 That was really smug for no reason.
24:23 For some reason the crime computer keeps on bringing up episodes of My Name is Earl, I don’t get it.
25:33 I can’t believe that Bender is on Chiklis’s side either. This is a dumb conflict.
25:56 Oh dear Tiberius made it to Make-out Point!
26:39 PSSSHH! Tiberius is still crushing on that other girl. Dumdum.
27:47 "You don’t have to worry, my boyfriend is not a corporate spy." (Something some writer actually thought someone would say.)
28:50 Wait, where are the hell are they? This is not their house. We’ve seen all their house.
29:56 Hey guys, did you want to see Julia Benz naked? Well lucky you!
30:50 Surprisingly, it is hard to hit a guy who can turn to mist.
31:26 Oh no! Apparently Marie is one of the evil scientists who have been giving random criminals superpowers. (Also, great plan, stupids.)
32:34 Oh good work, Pills. Just try to walk home through the worst part of town. (You can tell it’s the wrong part of town because there’s a siren.)
33:14 Wait, she now has Jedi powers too? Since when? How many more bonus powers does she need to be a worthwhile character?
34:01 Hang on, you still think Ethan Suplee is a villain?
34:20 The Big Bad decided to taunt his guinea pig with a pun.
35:27 It sure is convenient that the Big Bad is unconscious during this scene where Darla proves that she has powers.
36:15 Just throw that anywhere, Chiklis.
37:10 Can people who lie print things out on paper? CAN THEY?
37:47 Is he using his memory erasing powers on his girlfriend?! What an asshole.
38:31 This is a super important conversation I need to have with my boss, but ain’t no reason I can’t have a glass of wine during it. No reason to stay alert.
38:48 Darla is now deathly afraid of taking showers. She is going to start to smell…
39:55 Haha, abuse of superpowers is great.
41:06 Man, how many special commemorative events are they going to have? This is the second one we’ve seen.
41:34 Oh, and Marie is dead, apparently. From a new villain with poison dart powers.
41:59 OH SHIT THERE WERE CAMERAS! Very high quality cameras. This will get real!
Verdict: The wheels the wheels are turning. I hope that we finally get around to some true superheroics and less stupid "pretending to be normal" nonsense. I had a lot of fun with the guest stars this time, they had quite a budget in this one. Hopefully it evolves to some kind of true conflict here soon, as each side becomes increasingly aware of the other.
