Everyone's A Critic

Anakaris is in the North Pole telling penguins about ancient Egypt, although he wonders if they can understand him. This is being watched by Pyron and Ship who thought for a moment Anakaris was making sense but then went back to his stupid self again. Pyron says that it's probably for the best that he stays talking to the penguins and then goes off to see what Raptor's doing.
 

Since the events of this episode Raptor's been in a band, but now he's been kicked off. One of the band members says that Raptor is so bad that they are going to give up playing rock and do country western instead, that way they'll never run into Raptor again. Pyron and ship then go and find out what Demitri and Morrigan are up to.
 

Words don't do this scene justice.

Pyron wonders if things could get any worse and that his quest to take over the Earth would be easier of Demitri and Morrigan hadn't discovered TV. Suddenly another spaceship appears and a being appears on Pyron's view screens. Who is it?

=O =O =O PYRON'S OLDER BROTHER TERRAMON =O =O =O
 

Pyron tells Ship to beam all the Darkstalkers up. Anakaris, Demitri, Morrigan and Raptor arrive and Pyron explains the situation: in a few hours, Terramon will arrive to inspect Pyron's progress. Terramon is Pyron's older and more powerful brother who is the head of the family and feels the need to keep tabs on Pyron. Once he sees how little Pyron has accomplished, he'll send Pyron back home in disgrace whilst taking over the Earth himself, and the Darkstalkers will almost certainly not be needed by him. And to make matters worse, Pyron can't hold his own against Terramon as he isn't as strong. But Morrigan says that they may be able to change things if they get the help of Harry and the renegade Darkstalkers. Because if they do, they may be able to show Terramon that things are going well.
 

And so Morrigan, Demitri and Ship round everyone up and have them all beamed up to Pyron's spaceship. They all agree to help out given how much worse things will be if Terramon takes over.
 

With everyone needed now onboard Pyron goes over the plan one more time to everyone; as long as they help him and co-operate then Terramon should leave as quickly as he arrives. Later on Terramon and a few of his warriors beam across and Pyron greets them by taking them through to a dining room.
 

Everything is going well at Pyron's banquet until Terramon asks about humans. Pyron asks Terramon if he'd like to meet one and tells Harry to introduce himself. Terramon enquires further and says that there are three billion humans on the planet, which would make a great food supply, and then decides to eat Harry.
 

Pyron says that the Earth is his as he's spent the last four thousand years watching over it and refuses to allow Terramon to just go down there and eat everyone, so Pyron hits his own brother with an energy blast. This starts a large fight between the Darkstalkers and Terramon's warriors, but eventually Ship transports Terramon and his troops back to their own ship. However Pyron knows this won't be the end of it and then Terramon appears on a view screen demanding that Pyron must leave within one hour as he is taking it over.
 

Pyron wonders what they can do now as he reveals that his brother's spaceship has enough firepower to destroy an entire planet, and he might do that to Earth now that he's been offended. Morrigan suggests they attack him but attack from the outside is impossible, so Harry suggests attacking from the inside instead. Everyone agrees to give it a shot and although Ship warns Pyron that he won't be protected when he's beamed over there, Pyron doesn't care and says that it's his brother who'll need protecting once he gets a hold of him. Ship gives the layout of of Terramon's craft and points out the command center, bridge and the radio room, then says he'll beam everyone over in sets of two apart from Anakaris who will wait on Pyron's spaceship.
 

And so everyone is beamed over. Of course everyone does rubbishly and gets captured apart from Raptor, Harry and Felicia. Harry has an idea and he and Felicia head towards the main computer but they are spotted and the bridge they are running across is blown apart by lasers.

Felicia is knocked out and so turns into her smaller cat form. Harry grabs her and runs off to the main room where everyone is being held, and drops Felicia off whilst he goes up through a shaft and heads towards the circuits of the spaceship's main computer. Meanwhile Raptor finds the radio room and takes it over, broadcasting craziness and playing his guitar really loudly until...

...one of Terramon's warriors knocks the door down and crushes Raptor, who falls apart and is taken back to the bridge where the others are. Meanwhile Felicia wakes up and turns back to normal, and Harry tells her to go and distract Terramon whilst he tries to destroy the main computer. She starts hurling verbal abuse at Terramon who turns his attention to her, but in doing so he forgets about the Darkstalkers who get ready to fight.

The Darkstalkers take out Terramon's warriors whilst Pyron and Terramon argue and fight about who mummy liked the best. As this is happening Harry goes over to the main computer and sticks in some kind of cartridge which starts to glow blue...

...and everyone who shouldn't be on Terramon's spaceship is teleported back to Pyron's. As soon as they reappear, Anakaris is then beamed over to Terramon's spaceship and...

...uses his power to take the entire spaceship and it's crew back in time. This is watched by Harry and the Darkstalkers. Harry explains that he short circuited Terramon's spaceship giving Anakaris enough time to beam himself over and take it back through time. Pyron asks where exactly it went but nobody knows. Meanwhile Terramon's spaceship reappears and crashes into a large lake.

Terramon demands Anakaris to tell him where they are, but Anakaris just vanishes into thin air and returns back to Pyron's spaceship. Terramon climbs out and tells Pyron to reveal himself, only to find a large T-Rex instead. Yes, he's been sent back to the Jurassic period. Back in space Pyron beams all of the Darkstalkers back to Earth.

Before sending Harry and Felicia back Pyron thanks Harry for his help and says that although their war will continue, for this day only a truce is called. He then beams them both back to Earth and tells Ship how he is pleased that not only has he gotten rid of his brother, but he's also gotten rid of that ridiculous Anakaris. The latter of whom suddenly teleports back in and crushes Pyron my accident. Ouch.

The animators for this episode kept putting in Bishamon in certain shots, even though he's not meant to be there because he isn't a Darkstalker (apparently). What's amusing about the third shot above is that Victor goes through a roll call of everyone and misses out Bishamon, despite him actually being there.


When Ship brings up the specs of Terramon's spaceship, it looks nothing like the one we get to see in the episode. And oh look Bishamon is there again.


There is a short scene showing two of Terramon's warriors dragging/carrying Bigfoot and Rikou away through a snow covered corridor, but we never get to see how the two Darkstalkers got captured (Rikou appears to be in a net or something). A deleted scene, maybe?
