S-stop, that's so embarrassing for you. What's with that voice? What are you even-- ugh. Never mind.
[It's like a mom standing up in a crowd to cheer on her kid in the middle of a play. At least, he imagines it does. He's seen movies.
Speaking of, he sighs, maneuvering over to their cozy little TV set-up, backlit with a blue LED glow. Ofc he's already got the 4K version pulled up and ready to go (Maya had been concerned about finding a physical copy but forgot that the Internet always provides to those most loyal), so it's not a big deal that he can just get it started. Snacks are already there and none of them are good for your body or your teeth. He's just that generous of a host.
If only someone could be so generous as a guest!! Whatever. Idia slumps back, separate yet close to the others.]
Okay, so... TLDR: This guy called the Evil Magistrate fights The Steel Samurai for control over this poor township. [Flatly:] Boom, pow, wha-pah-- the fights are most of the episode. And they're pretty cool, idk if it's your thing tho. Kind of serious for a toku but the Evil Magistrate always loses. Well... until he doesn't. Like, okay [his bored affect starts to pick up, gaining some enthusiasm;] he loses and loses and Steel Samurai goes in for what you think is gonna be the kill, but of course it's not because he has a noble heart and fighting spirit. That's when we learn that The Evil Magistrate has actually been holding back his true power because-- get this-- The Steel Samurai is actually his separated-at-birth twin brother. Jaw. Dropped. It sounds like a cliche but the lead-up to the reveal elevates the early series. The foreshadowing is subtle, real prestige for syndicated primetime. It's like.... Uh...
[Idia realizes that he's talking a lot, running his stupid motor mouth, sitting up straight and gesturing at the screen, that he's not just ranting to Maya. So he... sits back a little, tries to pretend that that didn't just happen. He clears his throat.]
