Recap / The Review Team S 2 E 15 Enter The Colonel

Go To

The 32nd episode and Part 2 of '20,000 Leagues Under Sanity'.

The Metal Gear RAY, along with the team, is called back to an underwater base, controlled by an insane ex-soldier known as Colonel Kernal. Our heroes learn that his plan is to capture the world's sea monsters (including Scylass, the Basilosaurus, the Jellyfish Me'Du'Seh, a giant Oarfish named Nagasas, and a fire breathing manta ray known as 'The Black Flame') and use the Golus energy to control them. He shall ravage the world and twist it into his image. With that, he defeats the team.


  • A Friend in Need: Metal Gear RAY performs this act towards Godzilla and especially Bubbie.
    • Because You Were Nice to Me: This shows Bubbie that the hulking metal monster is actually pretty decent. The robot even fulfills this trope, considering her compliment very valuable.
  • Automated Automobiles: The Helicopter. Metal Gear RAY to some extent.
  • Bad Boss: Colonel Kernal from the get-go.
  • Badass Boast: Colonel Kernal engages in one when introducing himself.
  • Bond Villain Stupidity: Z-Squared calls out Colonel Kernal for telling his entire evil plan and revealing his base. He didn't know the Colonel could back up his claims...
  • Call-Back: The previous part and Bubbie's little encounter with the Basilosaurus are mentioned.
  • Chronic Hero Syndrome: Colonel Kernal calls out Metal Gear RAY on this.
  • Curb-Stomp Battle: The team suffers this at the hands of Colonel Kernal.
  • Downer Ending: Sure, it's only Part 2, but the team is soundly defeated and they're about to be tortured into obedience.
  • Floating Head Syndrome: The poster for Colonel Kernal and Metal Gear RAY.
  • Logic Bomb: Z-Squared is still suffering from this.
  • Mama Bear: Bubbie swears that she'll make K'Nuckles sorry if he allows Flapjack to get hurt.
  • No One Gets Left Behind: How Godzilla and Bubbie meet with the others. Metal Gear RAY's honor.
  • Serious Business: K'Nuckles denounces Colonel because he stated that candy is for the weak.
  • Sick and Wrong: Colonel Kernal's visage doesn't leave a good first impression. Even Flapjack is floored.
  • Take Over the World: Colonel Kernal's deal.
  • True Companions: Flapjack and K'Nuckles are this, as in canon.
  • Utopia Justifies the Means: Kernal's whole plan.
  • We Have Reserves: Averted. Colonel Kernal is none too pleased Metal Gear RAY killed off a potential sea monster.
