History Recap / TheScratchedUniverseE3P2TheDistortionPart2

* BatmanGambit: In the final confrontation, Bonkbot declares that he can wipe out the remaining Distorted without using a firearm. He correctly guesses that the Distorted Heavy will attempt to brute-force a victory with his mini-gun, without considering why Bonkbot is seemingly handicapping himself. In response, he takes out his bat and deflects ''every'' single bullet sent his way... back into all of the Heavy's fellow Distorted. Before he's sent flying by a home-run swing, the Heavy is so dumbstruck that his face and voice briefly return to normal as he comments on being outplayed.

* HopeSpot: Soon after they enter the neighboring Railway United facility, Fixer and Jumpsuit encounter a Red Pyro who survived the initial Distortion attacks. At first, he's elated to have found some fellow survivors to help him escape... But Fixer, not realizing the Pyro is uninfected, trains his pistol on him, fearfully ordering him to back up. The time the frightened Pyro spends trying to convince Fixer he's safe is enough for a Walker to sneak in and infect him.

* HopeSpot: The Red Pyro after running across two other co-workers of Railway United that had survived as he tries approaching them for help in escaping, only to be held at gunpoint by Fixer and Jumpsuit thinking he was another Distorted; only for a Walker to show up behind him and transform the Red Pyro into a Distorted Pyro.

* ActionDuo: Jumpsuit proves to be more experienced in dealing with threats like the Distorted than Fixer. Due to his Slasher background, he has no trouble killing any infected mercenary quickly, efficiently, and emotionlessly. He also is aware of some experimental weaponry stashed away within Railway United's warehouses, which is how he outfits Fixer with his Magnum Opus. Fixer, by contrast, lacks the experience Jumpsuit does, so he gets emotional and fearful more easily, keeping him from acting appropriately. The confrontation with the Distorted Pyro has him freeze up in fright for several seconds. Jumpsuit is forced to fight the Pyro alone for the most part, with Fixer only able to contribute a single gunshot.
* BatmanGambit: In the final confrontation, Bonkbot declares that he can wipe out the remaining Distorted without using a firearm. He correctly guesses that the Distorted Heavy will attempt to brute-force a victory with his mini-gun anyway, without considering why Bonkbot is seemingly handicapping himself. And in response, he takes out his bat and deflects ''every'' single bullet sent his way... back into all of the Heavy's fellow Distorted. Before he's sent flying by a home-run swing, the Heavy is so dumbstruck that his face and voice briefly return to normal as he comments on being outplayed.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: This episode introduces the first Distorted Pyro shown onscreen. Upon turning around to face its opponents, it chuckles, realizing its appearance has shaken Fixer to the core; even ''Jumpsuit'' looks horrified. It slowly advances on them with a wide-eyed expression to capitalize on that fear. Jumpsuit counters by emptying the entirity of a nearby machine gun's clip into its torso, which would've been a guaranteed death for any other fledgling Distorted. But this only annoys the Pyro, who ''wrenches'' its body to remove the bullets, continuing forward unperturbed until Fixer and Jumpsuit both severely wound its head. In just a few short minutes, the Distorted Pyros' self-awareness and toughness are established, as well as the other characters' unsettledness around them.
