Molli and Max in the Future

Warning, Object approaching. Warning.

Power crystal identified.

Oh, my gods!

Oh my God!

Activating tractor beam.

Yes. I got you, baby.

Warning, incoming projectile.

Evasive action required.

Come to mama.

Oh, my gods!

- Oh, my gods! Oh, my gods! - Warning.

- Oh, my gods! Oh, my gods! - Warning, warning, warning.

Oh, my gods! Stop! No, no, no, no, no, no!

All right. So, what insurance company do you use?

Uh, I don't have insurance.

Of course, you don't.

That's cool.

Well, I'm not paying for your ship, so...

- Well, I didn't ask you to. - Okay.

Wait. Why not?

Because it was a custom build.

And it was priceless.

Custom build?

Seriously, dude? I saw your ship.

I mean, it was a piece of crap.

Like, held together with bubblegum.

Whoever built that seriously swindled you big time.

- Like, you got fully-- - I built it.

- What? - Yeah.

- Who builds their own ship? - I do.

You know, it's not just irresponsible,

it's actually illegal to drive around

without insurance. So, newsflash.

Oh, okay. Okay.

Is it more or less illegal than, I don't know,

crystal harvesting?

What?

I mean, that is what you're out here doing, right?

Looking for magic power crystals.

No.

- No? - Mm-mm.

Hmm. You're just out for a drive.

Sightseeing in the asteroid belt.

Yeah, totally. I actually like asteroids.

- Really? - Yeah.

Oh, okay.

What do you like about asteroids?

- They're rocky. - Mm.

- That's the best part, right? - Mm-hmm.

They're rocky.

Okay. So, can I just drop you at a transit station,

and like, call it a day?

Or you can just take me to Megalopolis.

I mean, that is where you're going, right?

Yeah. Sure.

- But-- - Great.

- I'm not your chauffeur. - Right.

Well, would you be my chauffeur in exchange

for a magic power crystal?

We're down to the final round.

And it's anyone's match.

Megazord 2000 goes in front counterattack.

C-47 blocks it. And oh!

We've got a KO, folks!-

What a night for Mecha Fighting!

Join us next week for another match here.

Damn it. We missed it.

You seriously wanted to pay money

to watch people inside robots fight each other?

No. Not at all.

I wanna get paid to be inside the robot.

Ew! Why?

Uh, because Super Mecha Fighting is an art form.

No.

You can't just call anything an art form. That's a sport.

No. That is a culture. It is a lifestyle.

It's-- it's-- it's engineering, and-- and strategy,

and-- and man melding with machine.

Oh! That's so funny.

I thought it was just all about violence.

Well, this has been lovely. We should get going.

"We"?

You're my chauffeur, remember?

That was not the deal.

One crystal for one ride to and from the city.

- Where are you from? - Oceanus.

Oh, my gods! I don't wanna go there!

Why? Are you afraid of fish-people?

What? N-- no!

My mom's hairdresser was a fish-person.

I don't wanna go there, because it's far.

Exactly! We should get going before the hyperspace tunnel

gets clogged.

The hyperspace tunnel is always clogged!

Well, here it is.

Wow!

It's really gorgeous here.

Is it? You can't spell Oceanus without Anus.

Really?

You don't feel in touch with nature

when you're out here?

I mean, nature's touching me, it's just not consensual.

So, can I get that power crystal?

- Yeah. - Thanks.

Can I ask?

What do you want with this thing?

- Does it matter? - Yeah. I mean, humor me.

- You're human, right? - Yes.

So, what do you need magic crystals for?

I don't know. They connect me with the gods.

- Right. - Oh, okay.

I take it you're one of those people

who doesn't believe in the gods.

See, I don't get that.

Higher consciousness beings exist.

That's not like up for debate.

Okay. Just because interdimensional aliens exist

doesn't mean that they care about you.

They may as well be imaginary.

Everything's imaginary.

Stock markets aren't real.

Borders, laws, corporations.

They're all just social constructs.

Civilization is real.

That's what separates us from the animals

who can't reason past their feelings.

- Hmm. - Mm-hmm.

You should come to the city next week.

Wow. Are you-- are you inviting me to hang out?

I'm inviting you to come see how wrong you are

about what you just said.

What's next week?

They're celebrating it! That is civilization for you.

Yeah. People are always freaking out over names

and symbols.

And it's always an emotional argument.

You know, I read an article the other day

about how the holiday has taken on

a whole another significance.

Okay. I-- I feel like maybe changing the name

from Genocide Day would be nice.

For who?

The fish people who were murdered?

I'm a fish person.

Okay. Uh, what?

Yeah. See. I'm half.

My dad.

Most people can't tell 'cause I pass for human.

Oh. I thought-- I thought your mom had to be--

That's Jewish people.

So-- And the holiday doesn't bother you?

Yeah. Of course, it does.

But that was like hundreds of years ago.

You have to look forward.

- To what? - To the future.

I wanna be somebody.

Hmm.

Didn't take you for an optimist.

I am optimistic that you'll give me a ride home

even though you don't have to.

That's cute. That's-- that's cute.

Can I just clarify, are we gonna sleep together?

- What? - Well, there's tension.

So, clearly, something is happening.

So, I just wanna clarify.

Like, is it gonna happen? Is it not gonna happen.

I mean, either is totally fine by me.

I just really hate not knowing this kinda stuff.

So, I just thought I'd ask, you know?

You think we're compatible?

No. I mean, no. Definitely not.

But that can make for great sex.

You know, like um, I'm not asking you to marry me.

Whoa! Marriage is definitely out of question.

So, don't even-- don't even bother with that.

Okay. See, that's flirting.

You're flirting. That gives off a vibe.

But whatever. That's fine. You don't think I'm cute.

- It's not a big deal. - Ah.

Nice way to fish for a compliment.

Well, maybe I'm part fish-person.

That's very offensive.

Um, I'm-- I'm really sorry. I'm-- Shit. I'm so sorry. I--

Oh. Okay. Okay.

Oh, that's cute.

You're-- you're messing with me.

That's-- You know, that's flirting, right?

Like, that's literally the definition of flirting.

Look. It's not that I don't think

you're cute. I think you're cute.

I just don't think there's a future.

And I don't see the point of having sex

if there's no future.

Okay. Well, the point would be to just have sex.

But I mean, whatever. It's fine.

Let's just be friends. It's not a big deal.

Who says I wanna be friends with you?

You wanna be friends with me.

So, most fighters, they use single-thruster system.

Okay.
