Narrator: With the Fold Crystal shaterred into several parts and
scattered amongst the Solar System, the SDF-1 finds itself
unable to return to Earth. Worse yet, Queen Breetai and
her MegaVerse MegaForce are also trying to get the Crystal
before the crew of the SDF-1. With their most powerful
energy-source gone (and a fair chunk of their ship as
well), the valiant crew of the SDF-1 will need to turn to
new defences if they hope to defeat the MegaVerse. They
need - The Sailor Scoots. er, Scouts.
Title: PRETTY MECHA SAILOR SWOON - R (obotech)
Episode two: "Entrance! Sailor Swoon!"
[Scene: Inside the SDF-1. For no apparent reason, except that it sounded
good at the show's inception, a city has been built inside the bowels of
the ship (nice image, isn't it?). Curriously enough, it resembles Tokyo.
A girl in a Japanese school uniform is running through a park.]
Dimmei: Oh, heck... I'm late. I'm, like, SO late.
Ben: Hiya, Dimmei. Want to hear a list of all the components in
a plasma-intermix chamber?
Dimmei: <SCREAM> Dammit, Ben! Don't sneak up on people like that!
Ben: Why are you running, Dimmei?
Dimmei: Because I'm late for school. And why aren't *you* running?
Ben: It's Saturday - no school
Dimmei: <facefault> Why didn't anyone tell me sooner?
[Scene: Dimmei walking back towards home. She bumps into what looks
like a wino.]
Dimmei: Ew, like, get a shower.
Dr. Luna: Could it be? Is it she?
Lumiere: Sacrebleu! Invaders!
Dr. Luna: Wrong show.
Lumiere: So sorry, Monsieur. I thought I'd heard my cue.
Dr. Luna: Perfectly alright. Now, where was I?
Dimmei: "Is it she?"
Dr. Luna: Thank you. Could she be the answer to our problems?
[Scene: SDF-1 bridge. Red lights are flashing everywhere. Outside,
ostriches with large guns can be seen flying around the ship, destroying
its fighters. Needless to say, the crew is dealing with it admirably.]
Bridge Usagis: WAAAaahhhh!!! We're gonna die!!!
Cloddia: Someone *please* turn that infernal racket off?
[sound effect: Heavy frying pan (1d6) gonging three times.]
Cloddia: Thank you.
Lisa: But what do we do about those ostriches? We don't have a
breeding licence.
Dr. Luna (VO): Girls, I have a solution.
Lisa: Yes, Dr Luna?
Dr. Luna (VO): I have found someone who can help us. She'll be on your
screen any moment now.
[Scene: Outside the SDF-1. A lone fighter-craft - called, for some
obscure reason, the Chibbi-Macross - piloted by Dimmei appears on our
screen.]
Dimmei: WAAAAaaahhhh!!! I don't wanna do this. I wanna go
hoooooo-ome!
Dr. Luna (VO): Quiet, Dimmei. Now say the words.
Dimmei: MECHA! PRISM! POWER!
[Scene: Dimmei's plane is suddenly surrounded by glowing lights. The
armor of the craft flys apart, but that's OK - since this is a kiddies
show, we don't see anything 'naughty' (damn!). The shape of the craft
changes and, as the light subdues, we see it is now a female Mecha wearing
what appears to be an figure ice-skating outfit.]
Dimmei: Oooo.... Kawai!!!
[Scene: SDF-1 Main bridge. Lisa and Cloddia are looking dumbfounded. The
Bridge Usagis are still out. next to the outside window, a cockroach
dressed in drags looks at the scene outside.]
Milquetoast: This is *so* unnatural.
Lisa: Dr. Luna, what is going on?
Dr. Luna: If we cannot use the Crystal to power our ship, we'll have
to find another power source. Therefore, I have found a
*really* cute girl and put her in a *really* cute robot.
In pure Anime fashion, this should raise the hopes of the
inhabitants of Macross City. We will collect all that
Goodness energy we can run our ship on Goodness Power.
Minky Momo: Hey, that's my Shtick.
Lisa: You're right, Doctor. Our energy levels are rising. We
are able to fight again.
Cloddia: Quick, Lisa - before the audience catches up with the
bullshit.
Lisa: MACROSS! TRANSFORMATION! SEQUENCE!
[Scene: Outside the SDF-1. The ship itself starts to glow in much the
same way as Dimmei's plane did and follows pretty much the same
transformation sequence. When the light dies down, the Macross is a
humanoid-looking bulk wearing a figure ice-skating outfit.]
[Scene: Inside Queen Breetai's ship. Queen Breetai and Execite are
watching with interest.]
Queen Breetai: The fools. They have no knowledge of space-war outfits.
They have transformed into a skimpy skirt but have
forgotten their underwear.
[Scene: SDF-1 Main Bridge.]
Cloddia: Oh My God, he's... she's... it's right. We forgot the
underwear.
Bridge Usagis: Eeek!
[Scene: Outside the SDF-1. Macross and Chibbi-Macross are pulling at
their mini-skirts in a futile attempt to cover up.]
Narrator: Are our heroes finished? Will Queen Breetai's dastardly
plan to make them die of shame work? Will nothing save our
intrepid crew? Find out ni our next exciting episode:
