Day 295: Colony in Space Episode 3

The plot of this episode concerns a group of characters who have formed a colony on a world, and a large mining corporation coming along and trying to take over the world. In a way, it's a familiar stroy, and one that is firmly rooted in real lfe. Conpanies do come along and take areas over, occasionally be force and with great public protest to their methods, some of which may be a little underhanded. In some cases, this may be simple things, like paying off politicians or dressing robots up as giant lizards to attack the colonists and thus drive them away with this aspect of fear, leaving the planet ripe for takeover. So there are some aspects of is that are a little exaggerated for dramatic effect. But this is nothing compared to the responses that are given by both sides. Bombs, machine guns, all out war and Venusian Aikido are all responses that are given by both sides in response to the other's actions. This is a remarkably fun thing out in by Hulke as it reveals the extent to which both sides will go to in this sort of thing, building up a realisation in the audience of the way in which both sides will react in a conflict and draw them to reach their own conclusions about the ways in which these things go in the real world (although it is fairly obvious which side Hulke is skewed towards, something we'll go into later)
