| The Lone Gunmen |
| #1.02: Bond, Jimmy Bond |
| Sun Mar 11 2001 (runtime: 60 min) |
| |
| An influential Japanese businessman who is running an |
| illegal whaling fleet comes to consciousness in a |
| traditional-looking Japanese room. He's threatened by |
| Toshiro in Japanese. Frohike makes an appearance that is |
| truly amazing, and an homage to all those samurai movies |
| and Hong Kong kick flicks you've ever seen. As Frohike |
| attempts to coerce the information about the whaling fleet |
| out of the businessman, we see that it's really a setup by |
| the Gunmen, with their friend's help, to expose the illegal |
| whaling operation. The teaser includes a fight sequence |
| with a shot where Frohike Sensei kicks Toshiro through a |
| wall! [Editor's note: This is hilarious.] Melvin Frohike -- |
| Man of Action! |
| |
| Our story opens with one Alex Goldsmith, hacker |
| extraordinaire (also known as Double Bogey or DB), whacking |
| golf balls from a balcony in the middle of the night, tears |
| running down his cheeks. He whacks one ball into the |
| windshield of an expensive black car, just before he's shot |
| and killed. |
| |
| The Gunmen can't afford to pick up this week's issue on the |
| illegal Japanese whaling fleet because their printer won't |
| give them the issue on credit. They may have some money, |
| but they don't tend to spend it wisely. Everything to |
| equipment and set-ups, but not a penny for printer's ink! |
| Now those are priorities... Langly suggests that their |
| solution is to resort to Bodacious Babes on the front |
| cover, but this meets with Byers' disapproval, backed, |
| unwillingly, by Frohike. At this point, Yves appears at the |
| Gunmen's office, announcing DB's death, and send the boys |
| off to find out why he was assassinated. |
| |
| We get to see the inside of the Mystery Machine -- the Lone |
| Gunmen's totally equipped VW van -- which is tricked out |
| with an amazing array of surveillance equipment, including |
| a periscope. It is, after all, their "mobile news unit." |
| |
| They go to visit Mrs.Goldsmith, to ask about Alex's |
| activities. She paints him as a saint, but Byers suspects |
| otherwise. Langly, in the meantime is sick as a dog from |
| not knowing how to siphon gas without sucking the pipe. We |
| get the obligatory vomit joke, as Langly pukes his guts |
| into Alex's golf bag, signed by all the players at that |
| year's US Open, but in the ensuing scuffle to fake the |
| washed off signatures, Byers finds a check for one million |
| dollars made out to Alex from a source they're not familiar |
| with. As the Gunmen make their break, Mrs. Goldsmith |
| screams as she discovers her son's violated treasure. |
| |
| Our Heroes meet one James Bond, the coach of a blind |
| football team and the head of a charity called POE -- the |
| organization that issued the check -- who has been set up |
| as the patsy in an international arms deal incident, |
| involving the shipping of toxic gas to the former Soviet |
| republic of Belamirsk for use in its civil war. Langly |
| demonstrates his Superior Hacking Manliness to the wrong |
| audience, and is kidnapped to replace the dead |
| super-hacker. During the process of this hack, the time |
| tick for the episode is revealed: Langly is grabbed on the |
| afternoon of July 9th, 1999. This is a month or so before |
| they run into Susanne in Las Vegas, if the timelines of the |
| Gunmen and the X Files are supposed to mesh. I doubt it, |
| though. |
| |
| Yves reveals to Byers and Frohike (during a rather... |
| slashy phone conversation) that Langly has been kidnapped, |
| and meets them at the scene where our hapless Blondie has |
| been taken. Upon debate about the best ways to enter the |
| barred and walled consulate, Byers hits upon the idea of |
| sending a familiar face up the walkway... Jimmy Bond. |
| |
| Once they get Mr. Bond to the site, he storms up to the |
| gate and starts shouting to be let in, to see his |
| "anonymous benefactors." After spilling a good bit of |
| information about the Gunmen, Jimmy gets whacked with |
| Alex's driver, and dragged into the compound. He is, very |
| conveniently, tossed into the room next door to Langly, and |
| passes him a ghost modem device to get him in contact with |
| his compadres, undetected. Langly's been instructed to |
| drain millions from the e-stock market and put it into a |
| Belamirsk government account. Langly plans to refuse, but |
| Yves tells him to go with it, in part, at least, to stall |
| the Belamirsk diplomats until they can effect a rescue. |
| |
| Langly goes for the hack, and produces the results the |
| diplomat wants. Now, it's time for Langly to get paid -- |
| with a bullet! Fortunately for us, Langly's blonde butt is |
| saved by a phone call from the Belamirsk Minister of |
| Finance, who's all hot under the collar because the ruling |
| party's bank account is empty. Yes, the slippery Yves has |
| swiped the cash, faked Langly's hack, smooched Byers on the |
| cheek and wished him luck, then vamoosed, which I suspect |
| will be her MO through the series. |
| |
| Jimmy gets himself out of the room, and tries to persuade |
| Langly to jump from the balcony. Unfortunately, it was |
| demonstrated rather earlier in the episode that he's |
| somewhat easily distractable. And, true to form, Frohike |
| distracts him the moment poor Langly jumps, and Blondie |
| hits the dirt. Frohike and Bond heft him up and drag him to |
| the gate with the angry Belamirskians hot on their tail, |
| flinging lead. |
| |
| Langly, in a fit of doing the right thing, returns the |
| million dollar check to Mrs. Goldsmith, who is overjoyed. |
| As Langly observes, "a million dollars forgives a lot." |
| Unfortunately, they're still out of gas, and have no money |
| for this issue, much less to rescue last week's issue. |
| |
| When they arrive home in Maryland (I assume they did more |
| than a little gas siphoning on the way -- I doubt they |
| pushed the van home from Long Island), they're astonished |
| to find Our Boy Bond sitting on their warehouse steps with |
| last week's press run just waiting for mailing. Looks like |
| Jimmy Bond has found his very own Lost Cause at last. |
