Am I missing something here?

This seems more like a 'bigsweat' moment than an 'annoyed' moment...

Perhaps.  But how would you like to be gagged and tied to your bedpost,
then splashed with a bucket of cold water.

(Actually, I was going to put in a note about Ranma returning home to find
his wife tied up and in a wet T-shirt...but that isn't anyone's business
but their own...)

"So when you're splashed with cold water, you turn into Akane... but hot
water turns you into.... Akane??"

Yep!  And she's going to look like Akane...forever!!!  ^_^

The sardines weren't worth the trouble.  A few more shots, then 
Ryoga-san would overheat and explode.  Ducking around a corner, 
I managed to lose him as I entered the ramshackle residence of 
my Anime supplier.

One look at his face and I knew that I was betrayed.  "Tell me."
I insisted.  He refused, so I slammed him against the wall.
"Last chance.  Where can Ranma-Ranma find good fanfics?"
"Try Jason Liao." he whispered, before he slumped to the floor.
I heard the sounds of a door splintering as I left through the 
window, one step ahead of Tendo Heavy Industries...
