Synopsis[]
Kelly Fitzgerald, wife of senator Roscoe Fitzgerald, hires Roger to negotiate with the assassin targeting her husband. The word on the streets is the members of the senate know something from before 40 years ago, and a certain android is running amok killing innocent people who had shared memories of the past. Roger and Dorothy go to Big Ear to figure out who would construct such a murderous android. The 2 visit the home of the deceased Timothy Wayneright I in order to find answers. Dorothy is soon bound to an electromagnet and Roger is attacked by an android, that is until Angel comes to rescue them. It seems that Roscoe was the only senator that never lost any of his memories of the past. A sword wielding ninja Megadeus, known as Glinda, is activated, overwhelming the military police. Roger summons Big O to destroy Glinda. Meanwhile, Dorothy and Angel discover that Roscoe is actually an android himself. A cyborg named Alan Gabriel then shoots Roscoe, confiscating the compact disc of stored memories, and makes his escape.
Trivia[]
- Megadeus: Big O, Glinda
- Dorothy is shown to have superior hearing, as she could tell Kelly arrived even from the top floor. This is likely how she tells she Roger is snoring in bed.
- Roger has a conversation with Dorothy about the concept of traditions; after Dorothy wakes him up again with her piano playing. After pointing out that it's okay to sleep into the afternoon on occasion, Roger tells Dorothy that while traditions are important, they do not need to dictates lives; it's not like an instruction book you have to follow.
- Angel knew Alan on sight.
- Dan Dastun is promoted from Major to Colonel.
- The Military Police change from rocket/missile firing tanks to shell firing tanks.
- Roger doesn't get his usual drink at the bar due to Dorothy being with him. She would point out the risks of drunk driving.
- This episode ties back to Sybil Rowan's murders; making it so she wasn't a one off villain with no real agenda.
- Wainwright designed a bunker to house his lab, with Dorothy implied to be responsible for opening the heavy doors for him; she stated that he was afraid of something, which is why he designed it with reinforced armor.
- However, Angel opened the same doors without trouble. Implying that the doors were rusted shut from disuse.
- Dorothy shows emotion briefly while in the Wainwright lab.
- She holds off on entering before Roger, with an expression of fear on her face.
- When she feels the magnet, she looks shocked.
- Angel let's Roger know that she's aware he pilots Big O, having figured it out back in "The Call from the Past"
- Alan killed Roscoe even though it was not required. He is a psychopath and/or sociopath who enjoys tormenting others, he likely did it to make Kelly miserable. Another option is that Alex wanted a witness removed.
- Roscoe shows androids due eventually show feebleness from age, which is why he is in a wheelchair; his legs cannot support him well enough to walk anymore. Plus he is plugged into it, implying he needs constant maintenance as no one can repair his internal machinery.
- Dorothy sees more proof than humans and androids can love each other.
