There are so many wonderful moments on this episode. It does a great job of setting up many of the main characters while at the same time having a engaging story.
The characters introduced are Brock, Doc Venture, Hank, Dean, the Monarch and Doctor Girlfriend.
In this episode, Brock plays strip poker with a bunch of Mexicans for a car part, and then later, gets buried in the desert. Meanwhile, Doc’s kidneys, yes both, are stolen after trying to purchase a large amount of drugs from a Tijuana doctor. The boys get kidnapped by the Monarch, who decides to be a father figure to them. There is ever a quick glimpse of Doc’s twin bother. We learn the origins on the Monarch’s fascination with those butterflies. On top of all that, H.E.L.P.eR. gets a Mexican makeover.
This the perfect start to one of the greatest cartoon’s of all time. It still laugh to this day are the henchmen are forced to shoot Speedy, who is stuck on Brock’s choking hand, and one says, “That sucked”. One of my favorite lines in when Brock, with his eyes twitching, says, “They hit me with a truck.” and then after the violence, Hanks talks about the Monarch by saying, “He was going all crazy uncle on us”
This episode is a fantastic start to the series.
