Episode 550 - Life Before Fame
Taped: 1/24/20
Plot:
After finishing a stream of himself playing a Sonic Adventure DX randomizer mod, Lightning wonders what people did with their free time before Sonic got famous. He then thinks it's time he asked his father what he did before he got famous. Lightning and the rest of the kids walk in on Sonic massaging Amy's feet. Lightning asks Sonic what life was like working in Sega's early years with Sonic unsure of what he did before beating Eggman. He remembers the endorsement deals he's been getting since working for Sega at age ten. Amy thinks Sonic will remember if he calls Manic and Sonia over. He does, and they are also joined by Knuckles and Tails to help tell their story. They decide to start with Queen Aleena negotiating a modeling contract despite being pregnant with the triplets at the time. On the day they are born, Aleena confesses to the midwife Locke that she put her modeling career in jeopardy by becoming a mother. Having a child of his own who is an heir to guarding the Master Emerald, Locke offers to help Aleena because his marriage to Lara-Le is crumbling. Locke convinces her to get back to modeling, and he offers to raise her children in a cabin in the swamp. Aleena wonders what would happen if they start questioning their mother, and Locke says he's got it covered. She agrees to leave them in his care so she can start her modeling career again. Four years pass, and Locke makes a hasty dinner of chili dogs because of his divorce court hearings. Sonic finds that the chili tastes weird by itself, but he likes it when placed on the dogs. Locke admits that he's lost custody of Knuckles to Lara-Le, and that she will be spending the rest of her life with Wyn. He assures the triplets that he'll always be there for them and that they shouldn't lose hope finding their mother the queen. Another several years pass, and Sonic and Tails meet by performing tricks with one another. Tails admits that all the other animals tease him because of his two Tails... and accidentally admits that he has two of more than just that. He also shows off a working model plane he built which Sonic admits is impressive at age four. Sonic then tells Tails about how he signed a contract with Sega. Yuji Naka sees Sonic taunting Eggman after defeating him, offering him a job on the spot. After wrapping up Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Knuckles confides in doing the games because his mother is pregnant with his step-father's child. Sonic says he could get him a spot in another cartoon since the first two series have been cancelled. Knuckles suggests bringing Manic and Sonia along for the ride, and they agree to pitch the show together although Tails doesn't want anything to do with it. It takes until Sonic Adventure is ready to be released, but their pilot is approved. A few months pass, and Sonic Underground is cancelled due to it not being what the fans expected. Sonic tempts fate by saying at least he can get his siblings parts in Sonic Adventure 2, only for the executives to reject them. Sonic doesn't buy Shadow's backstory which the executives think is more realistic than Sonic having a triplet brother and sister. The executives then work out some incentives including the introduction of Rouge and the exclusion of Big as a playable character until Sonic is finally sold on the climax where he hangs from a pole having stopped the Eclipse Cannon from firing. Amy also does dome reminiscing about the time she signed onto to Sonic CD in 1993. Amy experiences love at first sight which creeps Sonic out, but he's sold on the idea on needing a girl to save. A few years later, Amy shows off her new signature red dress which she tries on for Sonic Adventure. Sonic then talks about Amy's future at Sega with Amy thinking he's talking about their future together. Amy grabs him but Sonic runs away before she can force him to have sex with her. A few years later, Sonic and Knuckles stare at Rouge while filming Sonic Adventure 2, not even paying attention to Amy flashing her breasts. Amy hopes that Rouge goes steady with Knuckles and not Sonic or there will be hell to pay. After the last flashback, Lightning remarks on how much Sonic's childhood sucked. He wants to know why he, Manic, and Sonia are still looking for Aleena, and they reply it's for the satisfaction that she is indeed still out there. Manic and Sonia admit that they weren't cut out for stardom, although neither have any regrets about Sonic Underground. Lightning asks how Sega reacted when they discovered Amy was pregnant with him, with Sonic saying they were too busy with Sonic 2006 that they didn't seem to care. Sega later paid for the house they live in right now as a means of supporting a growing family. Manic and Sonia are thankful that they get to be an uncle and aunt to Sonic's children, even if they aren't famous. Lightning takes a picture of Sonic and Tails recreating the Sonic 2 title screen with Tails remarking that it wouldn't have been possible without Sonic. Sonic Underground plays a remix of the Chemical Plant Zone theme to close the episode.
Quotes:
Sonic: (to Knuckles) You get to have a brother. I never had one.
Tails: Sonic. (facepalm) You have a brother AND a sister.
Sonic: Well, not that Sega knows about. (blushes)
Fun Facts:
We learn that Sonic, Manic, and Sonia's mother Aleena was not a queen of royal stature but rather a "beauty queen" in real life and that her portrayal in Sonic Underground was a fictionalized representation of her.
