Zachary: aka, “MicroNipples.”

Logan: aka, “gateway douchebag,” as Jeff called him. he & Britta were worried that Vaughn was bad for Annie (and that by dating him she would attract even worse guys like Starburns), so they tried to get Troy to finally return her ancient crush, and, um…

Zachary: And…there were complications that, em, ensued, which…

Logan: ok, screw the soap opera. this episode introduced the world to none other than our favorite cyborg cop—

Zachary: KICKPUNCHER!!!

Logan: his cyber-punches have the power of KICKS!

Zachary: The excitement of watching and mocking this film (and its sequel Kickpuncher 2: Code Name Punchkicker) produced the first perfectly executed Trabed secret handshake:

Zachary: (photo source: My own screen cap off Hulu Plus. I figured out how to rebrighten our shots using Preview, so no more gloomy Community freeze frames!)

Logan: dude, did you know Kickpuncher has a comic? it shipped with Season 1. here’s the cover:

Zachary: I must possess this. 

Logan: and i need this T-shirt. it’s my new dying wish:

Zachary: Are dying wishes retroactive?

Logan: yes. EXCEPT when your cause of death is Kickpuncher himself.

Zachary: A’right then. *secret handshake*

Logan: *secret handshake*

Zachary: Perhaps we should discuss the main plot. It was very funny, what with the romantic entanglements and such.

Logan: and Vaughn is always ripe for mockery. i found a video that collects him saying ‘hello’ and ‘goodbye’ three times every time. i mean, every time he says hello and goodbye three times. i mean—you know what i mean.

Zachary: Am I wrong, or does Abed say “cool” three times in that last bit?

Logan: good ear! to wrap up tonight, here’s the BEST TRABED VIDEO EVER, their own Kickpuncher fan-vid.

posted by: Logan & Zachary, who’ll be back tomorrow with the SEQUEL to “Romantic Expressionism,” “Romantic Expressionism 2: Expressionistic Romance”!

or maybe just “Communication Studies.”
