Welcome to the next mildly diverting episode of screencaps from the latest episode. As usual, there will be spoilers in the sense that there are plenty of images from said episode, and a whole heap of captions which generally bears no relation to the episode or, occasionally, sanity.
This one appears to be more rambling than normal. Sorry about that! At which point we pause for a message from our sponsors, LJ Cut Incorporated.
As many of you may recall, I have a fondness for collecting random Nick Butt Shots from the episodes, as part of my medication for .. um, something. Sadly this episode had a lot of random bending over, but sadly with no decent shot from the rear. This may simply be due to the fact that Nick's jeans were particularly tight and they were worried about them splitting, although Nick Underwear shot would have been even better. Ah well, I will have to simply wait and sigh over that possibility.
Anyway, this was probably the best rear shot I could find. Not great on detail, but I could certainly do something on the implications of the pose.

*MOVING ON...*
This being a Greg centric "moody" episode, I appear to have half a million images of Greg looking .. well, moody. Or happy. Or thoughtful. Wonderful if you're doing a Greg "mood board" thing, not so fantastic if you're trying to form some sort of story or commentary. So, I've decided to go the whole hog and bring in a moody mystery of my own that manages to pretty much cut out the girl altogether (she was probably trying to find where she put her bra after that "bathe in cocktail" thing. Incidentally, they should have had a rhinestone rubber duckie in there with her. I was vastly disappointed. Well, mildly disappointed.)
So, I bring to you, THE CASE OF THE MISSING ICE-CREAM! (dum dum DUM!). As this is a cheepo production, if you wish for atmospheric lighting, please dim your lights now...
And now for a row of wiggly symbols to show the beginning...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a dark and stormy night, because it always is during such times, and our Hero was responding to a call of distress whilst looking vaguely mysterious and for some reason reminding me slightly of one of the Doctor Whos.
1.
Whilst Langston carefully looks out for Daleks who have invaded the wrong show, our Hero comes across the scene of the crime. It's true. The tub of Vanilla Ice-cream With Choc Chips has vanished! It's a horrifying moment, which results in another vaguely mysterious and slightly chilly look.
2.
SuperDave spots some ice-cream drops on the floor, and our current Heroes take a closer look.
3.
Our Hero puts on a Sherlock Holmes face and decides that this may well be the work of the Infamous Raspberry Ripple Gang, who steal other flavours in order to promote their flavour to the world! (if you are doing your own atmospheric music, please insert a dum dum DUMMMMMMM! here)
4.
Our Hero's Partner is somewhat dubious about this whole theory, although he willingly comes to the scene to check things out, mostly to give his brand new jeans a bit of a workout.
5.
He calls down to Our Hero to hurry up, as there is only so many times you can photograph some ice-cream drips.
7.
Our Hero rightly points out the sprinkles.
8.
However, Our Hero's Partner has another little theory. He believes that the ice-cream was taken not by the Raspberry Ripple Gang, but another group who subdue their foes by performing their take on "The Timewarp." Nick has noted where they took a jump to the left...
10.
... and then a step to the right...
9.
... and indications are good that they performed their pelvic thrusts *here*.
11.
Our Hero wonders if this is the case, what happened to the putting the hands on the hips and bending the knees in time. Surely they wouldn't forget such a thing?
12.
Our Hero's Partner is less than impressed with this reminder
13.
Thinks about it silently...
14.
.. and then decides that perhaps ignoring the question would be the better part of valour, whilst performing a slightly camp pose.
15.
Later on, the team gathers in the little room to be able to discuss the case and perhaps get better views on Nick's tight jeans. To assist with the viewing, Nick kindly performs a little dance to get their juices flowing. He is a very thoughtful boy like that.
16.
19.
20.
Nicky queries whether they're still positive that this has all the markings from a Raspberry Ripple hit, as no one has found the wafer yet.
18.
Our Hero has a JD from Scrubs moment, and accidentally imagines everyone dancing around with Whipped Cream on their heads accompanied by cherries.
17.
Our Hero's Partner starts getting worried that Our Hero isn't quite with us, especially when Our Hero starts murmuring about cherries.
21.
Having been reminded of Nick's presence, Our Hero suddenly applies the thought of cherries to a completely different and slightly perverted context.
22.
At which point, our Hero's Partner's worry increases dramatically.
24.
As his Partner is clearly unhappy about the whole cherry aspect, Our Hero decides to get back into his role of Mystery Machine (not the one driven by Scooby Doo) and suggests the presence of sticky sauce at the scene should be conclusive.
25.
If Nick had felt a little disconcerted over the cherries, that's apparently nothing over the sudden appearance of sticky liquid in unexpected places. This is what comes of paying more attention to spots where The TimeWarp was performed rather than keeping an eye on what your partner is doing in the shadows.
29.
Our Hero assures him that he wouldn't abuse the syrup - if nothing else, it's evidence - and tries to convince him that Our Hero is completely and utterly responsible.
28.
At which point he goes and spoils it by finding a strange lady in the corridor...
30.
.. and having an Evil Moment (tm).
31.
Luckily for Our Hero, he's been practising his 'Innocent' expression, and manages to get back into the room without anyone really noticing how much he looked like he should have been rubbing his hands together with a "tee hee hee!" scribbled above his head in a Manga style way.
32.
"Honestly..,"
33.
Well, anyone other than Our Hero's Trusty Partner, who has a nose for when his boy has been up to something dubious in a corridor with a strange lady. This is emphasised by the fact he can suddenly pounce out of doorways, ideally to scare the poop out of Said Hero. Sadly, Our Hero is used to the concept of being pounced on by cowboys, and practises his "Not Impressed/Bad Dog" look (tm)
34.
However, Nick is also used to the "Not Impressed/Bad Dog" look, and therefore tries to wheedle the information out of Our Hero by putting his hand on his chest and crooning a little cowboy ditty.
35.
Even our Hero, full of willpower, is unable to resist such cuteness. Not enough to actually say what he was doing, but a smile is a smile.
36.
In slightly evil style, Our Hero then disappears off for a bar meeting with strange lady in corridor - you can tell it's evil by the colour of his tie and that shirt, quite frankly. Never trust a man in that get up.
37.
Realising that Trusty Partner is still slightly suspicious, Our Hero tries a little joke or two about a frog, a lemming and a particularly small hole in a tree on their next trip out.
38.
This fails to work other than a little smile, and Trusty Partner tries to probe a little further into what happened with the faint Evilness he had sensed. Nick's nervousness is such that he has now taken to labeling all his clothes with his name, just in case some nasty Stalker who looks nothing like him manages to convince his Dry Cleaning to hand over all his clothing again.
39.
This is a picture that screams for a caption called: "Well.......," to me...
40.
Our Hero and Trusty Partner stop to look at each other in a 'who's fooling who, here?' manner, before both of them decide to carry on with their mission.
41.
Yes. It's another victim of the Raspberry Ripple gang, and this time their target is a tub of Chocolate ice-cream! The fiends. Oh, and the poor soul who was selling said chocolate ice-cream. I bet you never realised it was a risk sport.
42.
Our Hero considered the facts for a moment, while Trusty Partner wonders whether it's just the angle of the shot or whether someone really has stolen Doc Robbin's legs entirely on the last picture. Or perhaps he's standing in a particularly well fitting hole...
43.
Either way, they have a Mystery still to resolve so Our Hero and Trusty Partner stand up in a dangerous, Batman and Robin style way - without the Lycra, more's the pity - and stare into the distance. Please insert dramatic music of your choice.
44.
Our Hero is let down by the absence of more obvious evidence, and dresses more somberly to reflect the mood.
45.
Although he does wonder whether he could sneak off for a quick snack without anyone noticing. After all, if he chooses the right place, then he could be gaining vital samples of sticky liquid for comparison, right?
46.
Our Hero takes the plunge and scuttles off to the nearest food bar, but is disheartened to find out that they have run out of choc chip brownies.
47.
But not as disheartened to discover that .. gasp! .. his favourite food bar might well have more sticky liquid to assess than he had once thought. Could they be in on the Raspberry Ripple Gang?
48.
Nick, on the other hand, thinks Our Hero is getting increasingly nutty
49.
And suggests that perhaps Our Hero might benefit dramatically with a holiday. Preferably not a beach holiday, as that tends to have far too much ice-cream.
50.
However, his suggestion is pooh-poohed - even when he did add the image of donkey rides to that - and Trusty Partner is stuck having to give him a worried, beseeching look in case this might assist. It doesn't, but it is pretty darned cute.
51.
Our Hero decides he needs to emulate a different sort of Crime Fighter, and decides to focus his attention on Giles from Buffy instead. He even finds a decent book to get that whole librarian feel, provided by Strange Lady in Corridor.
52.
This turns out to be a wonderful idea indeed, as the book he had borrowed for props turns out to have all the ice-cream sales in Vegas. And yes! There has been a spate of Black Market ice-cream sales recently! (why they would do records for Black Market items is another matter, but we will shush over that)
53.
Trusty Partner finds it a little annoying that they had spent all that time investigating and having evil moments in corridors when the actual dratted book was in their lab all the time.
54.
However, the true librarians of the book suddenly realise how dangerous the situation is - and the very real prospect of getting sticky fingers on the pages - and decide to get it back, as Strange Corridor Lady didn't fill in the right paperwork.
55.
It is *very* dangerous not to return a book on time in Vegas.
56.
Giving up on trying to keep hold of the book, Our Hero continues into the Cafe implied by the contents of said book, and discovers full and undefined evidence hidden away in a tea-cozy. Yes! It was actually Langston all the time! He even stole Doc Robbins legs, being the industrious soul that he is.
57.
Our Hero rushes to the bus stop - why Langston is catching a bus when he has a nice car to drive in is going to be another thing to ignore - but sadly, Langston and all the ice-cream have already vanished, off to an island somewhere to set up his own business as a coroner whilst selling ice-cream out the front. Putting someone on ice has never been so much fun.
58.
And that is the end of our little Mystery for today. Sleep well, dear readers, and bleach to scrub clean your mind from the insanity is provided for you on the way out. (Disclaimer - please don't try that at home, it may sting).
