In keeping with this season darting around hither and thither, this week’s episode focuses on Yor’s brother Yuri as he serves as a gatherer and reporter of information on suspected threats to Ostania in his role as lieutenant in the SSS. After a successful sting operation, he’s immediately assigned to bring down Franklin Perkins, who has taken to writing and distributing anti-Ostania propaganda.
As Yor’s brother, Yuri has demonstrated he’s a tough cookie, and also puts a great deal of care and detail into his work. As he follows, listens in on, and profiles Perkins, it starts to occur to him that his target could be motivated by concern for his family, just like he primarily does what he does to protect Yor. However, after typing this observation down, he promptly pulls the paper out of the typewriter and discards it.
With that crumpled paper, Yuri puts out of his mind any comparison to himself and his prey. This is a cold war, after all; there has to be an other to villify and bring to justic, and it’s Perkins. That said, after catching him mailing his illegal publication at the post office, he doesn’t storm Perkins’ apartment, which he shares with his frail father.
Instead, Yuri waits outside until Perkins comes out, so his father won’t see how pathetic he is. Perkins’ response cuts deep: “who is more pathetic, someone fighting the government, or a government dog?” Yuri again refuses the comparison: what Perkins did will make his dad sad; Yuri would never do anything to make Yor sad.
For his continued solid work, Yuri gets a pat on the back and promise of a fancy dinner from the Chief himself, but it’s instructive that Yuri needs to stop by Loid and Yor’s just to see his sister. Seeing her, and having his head patted by her, soothes a soul that is twisted into knots every day at his job. Even Anya thinks to comfort him after reading his mind…until his mind becomes full of “Yors” and hearts and she’s grossed out!
That’s it for the episode proper, which only takes up about two-thirds of the standard runtime. The rest is given over to a bonus “flirty” episode of Bondman in which he woos every woman he comes across, friend and foe, until he has a harem of eight women following him along missions.
It’s a random but hilarious little mini-ep, and I dug the retro resolution and palette. There are also three little omakes after this involving Anya and Damian, the highlight of which is Anya hearing all the boys in the pool deciding to pee in it, and swearing off pools forever. I’ll give this SxF this: it didn’t lack for variety!
