[Open on a full-screen steel placard, with strange runes carved into it.]

Aeka (v.o.): How to speak Juraian.

[Cut to a shot of Tsunami in spaceship form. The ship streaks through space,
and the camera pans along its length, and then around it to reveal that it
(or should I say she) is heading straight for a massive asteroid field. The
external weapons systems charge, visibly, and we see Tsunami tearing through
the asteroid field and basically blowing apart everything in her path and a
few things that aren't. Before too long, the ship is engulfed by explosions.
It emerges on the other side of the asteroid field trailing a few wisps of
debris, which quickly trail off. The asteroid field has been reduced to
gravel. A glowing set of runes appear at the bottom of the screen.]

Aeka (v.o.): Tree.

[Cut to a shot of the living room of the Masaki household. Ryoko is sprawled
on the couch, one arm over her eyes, sleeping. A bottle slips from her hand
and rolls a few feet, to be stopped by Aeka's boot. She picks up the bottle
and shakes her head disapprovingly.]

Aeka: Beer.

[Zoom in on the bottle's label.]

Aeka (v.o.): Masaki's. Juraian for beer.

[Fade to black.]

You may not all remember those Foster's commercials, but they were pretty
darn funny.
