6. The Black Horse
Waits At The Execution Ground
A bus doesn’t stop
when it is supposed to- it’s a Dark Bus! The people on it are taken to
the android testing place to be guinea pigs. Black
Horse appears and starts killing them. Professor Gil is
watching and very happy- Black Horse should make him lots of money from
other countries. Professor Komyoji calls his old house, and Mitsuko
answers. Jiro talks to him, but before they can find out where he is he
has to run from Dark Agents. Jiro has the call traced. The Dark loses
Komyoji, who climbs into Hanpei’s office. He manages to “hire” Hanpei,
who leads the Dark away, with Jiro following them. Naturally his car
dies and he leads the Dark on a merry chase until he runs into Black
Horse. Meanwhile, Komyoji leaves the office right before Mitsuko and
Masaru show up. Before Black Horse can kill Hanpei, Kikaida shows up
and they all chase each other around. Black Horse uses his
electromagnet to drop the building on Kikaida. Later, Jiro tells Masaru
and Mitsuko about their father. Hanpei decides to be nice and help.
Professor Gil plans a trap for Kikaida. Masaru and Mitsuko get a card
with tickets to see their father. Naturally it is on the Dark Bus.
Hanpei is on board in drag, and Jiro is following them. Gil uses the
flute to spring his trap, and tries to get Jiro run down. However, the
truck makes enough noise to block the flute. Change! Kikaida then
hitches a ride under the truck. He gets to the site, used to destroy
useless androids, and Black Horse is waiting for him! He also has
Masaru and Mitsuko tied up and tells Kikaida he will kill them if
Kikaida doesn’t surrender. Then Kikaida agrees let himself be killed by
Black Horse. Hanpei is in disguise as a Dark Android and goes to rescue
the kids. Kikaida starts destroying the androids. Hanpei uses Iga Ninja
magic to escape Black Horse and free the hostages. Kikaida uses Black
Horse’s electromagnet against him! Boom! Hanpei doesn’t get his extra
compensation and Jiro leaves.
To be continued.
Notes: The
flute has an effect on the people on the bus, just like Jiro. Black
Horse looks pretty good, but his head is just too wobbly! Komyoji’s
suit still looks good, and he gets into Hanpei’s office by climbing up
there- four stories outside! Hanpei’s being chased is pretty funny. The
show takes place on Masaru’s birthday, August 19th- which means it was
supposed to be aired last week. Hanpei is smoking on the bus. The flute
has a nice red swirl to show it’s effect on Jiro. Hanpei’s android mask
is very ill fitting. Black Horse gets a huge swing throw!
