'All WASP personnel must be at 100%, both physically and mentally.'

That is SO easy.......... I'll leave it. :)

The Marineville Traitor is seen at the table of this meeting when he should be in jail.

He pops up in Titan Goes Pop as well. Guess he got off lightly .... :)

Maybe the whole traitor thing was just an initiative test? Judging by the way the Big Man (whoever he is) talks to them at the end, I wouldn't be surprised. Of course, there is the small question of Troy storming in at the end of that ep with a loaded gun...

I think I've seen the Lt. Myson puppet somewhere else...what character did he play in Titan Goes Pop?


By Adam on Friday, September 27, 2002 - 12:56 am:

He was the messenger on the hoverbike in Titan Goes Pop.

He was also the pilot in Lighthouse Dwellers.

Wow - you can tell what puppet it is just by the eyes and nose? I misjudged you, Adam....

Working from my sieve-like memory, I think he might always have been in the party scene in Cool Caveman (can't be bothered to stick DVD in :) )


By Paul Joyce on Friday, September 27, 2002 - 6:03 pm:

He was ALWAYS in the party scene? So he didn't keep popping in and out to mingle with the people downstairs? :)

Just what is making X20's gadgetry go berserk at the end?

Very good question.

After the oil line got blown up, Troy mentioned going to pick up "survivors"--one of the few times they mention the possibility of people dying. I don't recall hearing if all the crew members were rescued or not.

When Lt. Fisher sat down in Stingray, Troy sounded like a stern father admonishing his little boy not to touch anything without permission.

What was the big deal about Fisher not being allowed to use the hydrophones? Was Troy afraid that he would break them, or was it a matter of "That's PHONES' equipment--leave it alone!" Fisher couldn't possibly have done any harm listening in--and it would have kept him from "playing" with any other equipment.

Didn't Phones find it curious that he was told to go to the very same island that Troy's would-be killer had once fled to--and the very house where an old recluse had once lived? ("Stand By for Action".)

For that matter, surely the WASPS would have their own psychiatrist on call, and not go with the first person who volunteered his services. (And try checking for references!)

Just who was that outside the meeting room with Phones, who seemed to be taking his picture? A reporter? And after the decision was made for Phones to stand down (and seemingly before they came out of the room and told him) Phones was suddenly lit with several flashes of light, as though several cameras were clicking. Why would his superiors leave him alone to face the wolves like that--especially before his guilt had been established?

Why did Troy and Fisher have to search for evidence "off the record"? Surely it should have been part of the regular investigation.

Too bad Phones didn't think to get up and examine the "altered" furniture.

Was Agent X2-whatever playing accompaniment to the taped music at the beginning, or was he finger-synching? Perhaps the poor little guy should give up spying and become a musician. I'm sure that he'd find the life much more fulfilling.
