TIMELINE
DAY 0 0 3
PHUKET BEACH
Everyone shows up for the Academic Placement Questionnaire drowsy. Wonder why!
After the exams conclude, Albert retires to the beach to straight rep it European. After he's through ruining Rin and Hikaru's childhoods, the girls get down to business: stars! Albert helps them out the best he can, but as it turns out, he is not a star captain.
Helen and Albert trade off on what it means to be a clone. Are their memories stolen? Are they best left in the past, where they belong? Albert, you haven't given up on speedos, so there's that.
Elraine reveals that she comes from a pretty similar situation. Evil, mysterious diseases are kind of her forté. Today is a great day for an identity crisis, it seems, but Albert is there to save the day. You go girl!
By this point, everyone must be feeling good. Right? ... Right?
Screw that, VOLLEYBALL TO THE GUT!!!!!!!!!
Albert isn't the only one taking advantage of our beautiful beaches. Shindou isn't going soft, no matter how many years he's spent in a test tube. Everyone gets a Tae Bo lesson today, like it or not. He and Elraine chat for a moment about the abilities they've lost. It would appear they've been mugged!
Albert rolls in, and he and Shindou make plans for Saturday. Little do they know, the universe also has plans for Saturday. WHOOPS. Might have to save those cleats for another day, sport.
Soccer is one thing, but Shindou has his suspicions about why his keshin won't pick up the phone. By now, he's straight up grown tired of this.
It's time for midnight shenanigans of the B&E variety. Helen and Jet make it to the laboratory, as promised. Hilarity ensues: their mysterious benefactor has in actuality set them up on a blind date with each other. Why are they there? To play baseball? To break stuff? Helen and Jet draw their own conclusions. While Jet goes to work setting the Foundation back thousands of dollars, Helen discovers an unsettling e-mail. What does it mean?
Back on the homestead, our newly-named Q is busy teaching Rin how to drive through the power of Instagram. He's serious about them trees. As if that's not enough, Rin talks him into coming up with a plan to steal back his flash drives. If there's one thing that can save them now, it's Q's collection of pictures ripped off canihascheeseburger.com. Good ol' Jimmy can't help much but offers his services as a distraction anyway. Sounds dangerous! That kind of recklessness can't have anything to do with a lover's spat, could it?
Albert makes good on his promise to investigate Dr. Roth and report to our resident netgeek. That sounds important and all, but you know what matters most? How Albert likes his coffee.
Our day ends with Elraine putting on her red shoes and dancing the blues away. She successfully baits Operation Kill Em With Cuteness. Rin is promised dance lessons, while Hikaru offers her services as the best cure for lonlieness in the world. It's doctor approved!
Tomorrow's another long, long day. Sure you can stomach it?
