Run and hide! Sasha found the record button!


On today's menu: "Scarecrow's Revenge"

Scarecrow Maya attacks Niko Goose rushes to Niko
Scarecrow resumes his battle with the Heart of Tarkon...
...Maya and Niko fight over Goose...
...and guess who wins. Hehe.


"Scarecrow's Revenge" is pure bliss for Goose and Niko flame keepers. Let's admit it, we'll NEVER get it presented on a platter as obvious as this again. Okay, there IS a plot in there, and a rather good one at that, but all that pales in comparison to the angry looks Niko throws at Maya, who, in turn, throws looks of a whole different quality at Goose. Lucky guy.

Before I let you run wild with your mouse, let me say a few things in advance.

These files are in GERMAN. As of yet, I do not own any English episodes, which is likely to change soon. I do not view this as a poor substitute though. On the contrary. Let me elaborate.

I recently got an earful of original sounds from a listmember out of the same episode presented here. Normally, my reaction to hearing the original voice cast of my favorite series is a small epiphany to me. As I said, usually. Shane Gooseman is voiced by Doug Preis, who, as many people tell me, does a damn good Clint Eastwood impersonation, but here, he sounds more like reading the weather forecast than like the rugged, deep voice I was used to.

Yes, this is not Doug Preis I am talking about. This is "the unknown man behind the microphone who still gives me goosebumps (is this a pun? :-) after all these years". And he happens to speak German. What can I say? I'm addicted to him. I can't help it. It's hormones.

You'll also find that the others have rather nice voices also. Hey, just click and find out! And PLEAAZZE tell me if you agree or disagree with my assessment. I'd like to know if I'm in my right mind or just terribly taken by the man. These scenes may not be the best to illustrate this, but since I know some people might have them in English to compare, I'll go with them.

Maya: "Goose, you're so witty!" Goose: "Good looking, too." If looks could kill...
Maya: "How is Doc?"
Goose: "Doc who?"

It's not hard to guess that such talk does not leave behind a very happy Niko. And indeed, when Maya and Goose part with a hug and a handshake, she's steaming. Maybe someone should tell Maya a thing or two about redheads... :-)

But then again... the following makes more than up for it all!


Here's the final scene for download (my favorite! :-): (206k zipped wav file 44Hz 8bit mono)

Niko: "Could you like a girl like Maya?" Goose: "I'm too busy saving the universe." "Besides..." "...I like brunettes."
