episode seventeen: So the deed could not be done

episode seventeen: So the deed could not be done

Published June 2, 2019

The episode that finally answers the critical question: why do robots climb like cows?

There’s an arm under the sofa, Jessie’s dangling from a shelf in Maintenance Bay 15, and we learn what ligatures are for.

It’s, like, Day 7? 8? aboard the Oz 9, and things haven’t gotten any better. Does anyone know a good pycnologist?

episode sixteen: We are not breathing the passengers

Published May 19, 2019

‘Allo, little piggies!

The notorious assassin le Bichon Frise is circling our crew like a vulture who hopes his prey drops soon because he’s tired and hungry and a little cranky and frankly probably a little dehydrated and his blood sugar’s low, he just knows it, and this dry desert air is doing NOTHING for his skin.

He’s ready to do some assassaning, but this bloody crew just will not cooperate.

Oh, and pod 666 just popped open, so it’s anyone’s guess what happens next.

Bonnie Brantley as Jessie and Donna

Eric Perry as Joe, Head 1, and Mr. Southers

episode fifteen: Heroic Running!

Published May 5, 2019

Here’s a shocker: the Oz 9 crew’s lives are in danger. Suffocation, toxic gas, a loose assassin, the risk of being crushed under their own denseness–perils lurk around every corner and certainly between slices of bread.

Still, they’ve managed to make it through 14 episodes, so there may be hope for them yet.

Oh, who are we kidding. These people would starve to death on a broken carousel.

Mini episode fourteen and a half

Published April 28, 2019

In Which it’s late, and there’s an assassin loose aboard the Oz 9, but Leet isn’t going to let that interrupt his conversation with sleeping people.

After all, in at least a dozen conversations, only one of them called him stupid.

Leet really REALLY needs a pen pal.

episode fourteen: Of baguettes and bastards

Published April 21, 2019

In which

Captain Jessie is now aboard the Oz 9, which is great, except she brought her assassin with her (pro tip: don’t do that), and he’s managed to get a hold of some fairly crucial information about the Oz 9.

Will our pointless but slightly endearing crew survive? More importantly, who will hire the Narrator if they don’t?

episode thirteen: Aim for the mime

Published April 7, 2019

You know how the little fluffy dogs are always the meanest? Well, this bichon frise is no exception. He’s coming for Captain Jessie, and things are looking bad for the fearless, tartan-clad leader of the 6748.

episode eleven: She might do some lasting pickles

Published March 10, 2019

It’s Day Two

And we’re as startled as you are that anyone’s still alive.

Day two on the Oz 9 sees the crew celebrating fewer fatalities (sorry, Matt) at least on board (sorry, Sweden) and making a critical discovery about cheese.

But the two-headed repairbot is awake again and wreaking some havoc, Madeline needs to warn Jessie about her crew, and apparently, if someone invites you to go on an adventure in space, don’t go back for your purse or to the porta-loo.
