| Nukees - Monday, January 17, 2000 | [[Continuing the Agnostica story; final scene, Suzy Gee and King Luca kissing]]
/ But wait! Don't go yet! 'Cuz there's still one thing missin'
/ It's MY song and it ends with a requisite kissin'. http://nukees.com/d/20000117.html |
| Nukees - Wednesday, January 19, 2000 | Gav: Well, I guess classes will be starting again soon... / Gav: How'd my life end up like this? Stuck in Antarctica, on the run from a virus-infected giant robot ant, no food, no water over -40° Celsius, checking my voice-mail every five minutes on my cell phone just to warm up my ears, and talking to a penguin!
/ Phone: You have no new messages / Gav: Meanwhile, Suzy Gee, King Luca, Steve, and the other Nukees will be moving on with their educations and their lives. / Gav: Those poor saps! HAHAHAHAHA! http://nukees.com/d/20000119.html |
| Nukees - Friday, January 21, 2000 | Gav: So i figured what better place to hide than in the millions of square miles of isolation that is Antarctica? / Gav: Yeah, well I didn't think of that. / Gav: Besides, a friend of mine works at the South Pole research station. / Gav: Well I didn't think of that either. Get off my back! http://nukees.com/d/20000121.html |
| Nukees - Monday, January 24, 2000 | [[Suzy Gee is siting in a lecture chair]]
/ Suzy Gee: [[thinking]] *sigh* it's so hard to get back into the swing of things after vacation. / Suzy Gee: [[Thinking]] Actually, this time it isn't so bad. This class makes a modicrum [sic] of sense. Maybe something has actually sunk in over the years. / [[King Luca walks by the door to the lecture room and looks at Suzy Gee]] / King Luca: [[Whispering]] Psst... Suzy Gee, your class is across the hall...
/ Suzy Gee: I don't care. Go away. http://nukees.com/d/20000124.html |
| Nukees - Wednesday, January 26, 2000 | [[The giant ant is bogged at the beach, Danny is clinging to its back. A Calvin look-alike is building a castle in the foreground]]
/ Danny: It is the "ocean." you cannot walk on it.
/ Teri: That's what you said about "sand."
/ Danny: I still think I was right about that. http://nukees.com/d/20000126.html |
| Nukees - Friday, January 28, 2000 | [[Suzy Gee is sitting on a couch reading, Danny is walking past, some seaweed on his shoulder]]
/ Suzy Gee: Danny! You're back! I thought Teri took over your mechanical ant and kidnapped you to chase Gav to Antarctica! / Suzy Gee: Boy, THAT'S the sorta thing you only say once in your life!
/ Danny: We had a navigational disagreement. / [[Danny takes the seaweed off his shoulder]]
/ Suzy Gee: Navigational?
/ Danny: Well, SHE wanted to take the most direct route possible to Antarctica... / Suzy Gee: So? What did YOU want?
/ Danny: Oxygen. http://nukees.com/d/20000128.html |
| Nukees - Monday, January 31, 2000 | [[King Luca kisses Suzy Gee's hand]]
/ King Luca: Good morrow to you, fair lady Gee. My carriage will arrive at your abode tonight at eight.
/ {{smack}} / [[Danny is sitting next to Suzy Gee on a couch. Danny is dripping wet]]
/ Danny: So, you and King luca are dating again?
/ Suzy Gee: That's what we're telling the tabloids. / [[Danny is off the couch looking nervous]]
/ Danny: So, uh, er... do you... I mean... have you and he had... ah... you know... have you yet... uh... / [[[Suzy Gee is still sitting on the couch, Danny is out of the frame]]
/ Suzy Gee: SEX, Dan. The word is SEX.
/ Danny: I have to go. http://nukees.com/d/20000131.html |
| Nukees - Wednesday, February 2, 2000 | Suzy Gee: Danny! Come back! What's wrong? Are you embarrassed talking about SEX?
/ Danny: AH! Stop saying that! / Suzy Gee: Sex?
/ Danny: Ah, it is not proper to discuss such things. / Suzy Gee: Sex.
/ Danny: Ahh! / Suzy Gee: You do realize you brought up the subject, right?
/ Danny: My Id and Ego hate each other. http://nukees.com/d/20000202.html |
| Nukees - Friday, February 4, 2000 | Suzy Gee: You're so repressed, Danny. If you ever get the confidence to even talk to a girl, you'll end up with some controlling bitch who always tells you what to do. / Danny: I will NOT!
/ Suzy Gee: I can see it now! She'll demand the impossible from you on a daily basis and you'll gladly just do it for the attention! / Teri: [[from inside the Giant Robot Ant]] You will redesign this body to walk on water within 24 hours. / Suzy Gee: I can see it now! Ed McMahon and an oversized check...! http://nukees.com/d/20000204.html |
| Nukees - Monday, February 7, 2000 | Gav: Freezing... to death... so thirsty... must find water... missed Waitangi Day celebrations... losing... hope... / Gav: Hey! You're right! This is Antarctica! There's water all around us! Doi! Of course, I need to figure a way to melt some... / Gav: Maybe I could construct a crude microwave generator from circuitry in my cell phone, tuned to 2450 MHz, and focus the rays off of a bubble wrap diffraction grating! 'Course, I'll need some coconuts... / Gav: Oh yeah! Then there's my cigarette lighter. Crap! http://nukees.com/d/20000207.html |
| Nukees - Wednesday, February 9, 2000 | [[Gav is in Antarctica, attempting to melt snow for drinking water]]
/ Gav: There doesn't seem to be much fluid in this lighter. I really should build a fire. / [[Linus looks out to the sea]]
/ Gav: Fortunately, there seems to be a bit of driftwood around here. Isn't that strange? We've been walking inland for days, after all... / Gav: I'll build the fire under this odd glacial overhang to protect against the wind! / Gav: You know, for a fish-eating waterfowl this far from the ocean, you should stop snickering and appreciate my resourcefulness more! http://nukees.com/d/20000209.html |
| Nukees - Friday, February 11, 2000 | Gav: I could not have forseen this. / Gav: Well sure, it makes sense NOW that the fire might sink into the snow then melt the ice overhead until a torrent of water fills the hole and then freezes sol-- What are you looking at? / Gav: I should definitely resist the urge to say, "At least things can't get any worse," shouldn't I? http://nukees.com/d/20000211.html |
| Nukees - Monday, February 14, 2000 | Gav: As if being encased in ice in the middle of Antarctica isn't bad enough, no one sent me any valentines this year. / Gav: Valentine's day is the worst holiday, anyway. When you've got someone, it's just a neurotic stressfest of responsibility, but when no one loves you, it's the loneliest day of the year. / Gav: *sigh* I wish my ex-girlfriend Shea was here. You know what she'd say if we were still together? / Maritza: You've ruined my life, you know....
/ Gav: Exactly! But with more shrill. http://nukees.com/d/20000214.html |
| Nukees - Wednesday, February 16, 2000 | [[Gav is turning to look at Maritza, who in kneeling down.]]
/ Gav: AH! Who are you? What are you doing here?!
/ Maritza: I should ask you the same, but now that I think of it, I don't care. / [[The shot pans back to reveal that Gav is stuck in some ice, and there are many tentacles in the background]]
/ Maritza: I'm Maritza, a biologist from New Zealand. I WAS studying this remarkably well-preserved giant squid. That WAS a fine frozen specimen until you thawed it out!
/ Gav: Squid? Thawed? What? / [[ A tentacle lands on Gav's head]]

| Nukees - Monday, February 21, 2000 | The Nukees' Student Guide to successful high-tech careers in the "new millennium".
/ [[small text]]
/ *even thought the new millennium won't start until... Ah, forget it! / [[Suzy Gee is holding a prospectus for "Turtleneck.com", and being handed the typical cartoon bag of money with a dollar sign on it]]
/ Caption: Solicit venture capital for a dot com IPO using the school's computers and office supplies. / [[Gav is sitting at a computer displaying a graph. Steve looks on.]]
/ Caption: Use student loans as daytrading capital.
/ Gav: I started $20,000 in debt and have doubled that in only one week! / [[King Luca is in a lecture, typing on a PDA]]
/ Caption: Become a freelance webpage designer. Make $100/hour during class. / [[Danny is sitting on a roadside curb holding a sign reading "Will teach plasma physics for food".]]
/ Caption: Under no circumstances should you accidentally obtain a degree. http://nukees.com/d/20000221.html |
| Nukees - Wednesday, February 23, 2000 | [[Maritza and Gav drinking cocoa]]
/ Gav: I suppose I should thank you for saving me from certain frozen excruciating death...
/ Maritza: S'okay.
/ Gav: ...and for this yummy cocoa! / Gav: So, you're New Zealand's most eminent giant squid expert?
/ Maritza: I also study regular squid locomotion, octopi, and in my spare time, Cthulu [sic]. / Gav: So you're some kind of tentacle-obsessed freak, then?
/ Maritza: Ha, ha. I'm not the one with suction cup marks all over my face. / Gav: Listen, I don't think we got off on the right foot...
/ Maritza: TENTACLE. http://nukees.com/d/20000223.html |

| Nukees - Monday, February 28, 2000 | [[King Luca and Suzy Gee are in a restaurant]]
/ Suzy Gee: Luca! Why do you keep looking around? Are we on a date or a stake-out? / King Luca: I am concerned about the status of our relationship.
/ Suzy Gee: Isn't that my line? / King Luca: It's a strange world we live in, this "modern age," but there are still tried and true rules by which we are forced to abide...
/ Suzy Gee: What are you saying?
/ King Luca: You can't help it, I know...
/ Suzy Gee: What?
/ King Luca: I mean, it's just who you are...
/ Suzy Gee: WHAT?! / Suzy Gee: A COMMONER?!
/ King Luca: And it's "KING" Luca. http://nukees.com/d/20000228.html |
| Nukees - Wednesday, March 1, 2000 | [[King Luca and Suzy Gee are sitting at a restaurant table]]
/ King Luca: All I'm saying is we have to be discreet...
/ Suzy Gee: What you're saying is you're ashamed to be seen with me! All because of this stupid delusion of yours!! / King Luca: Delusion?
/ Suzy Gee: You're NOT a king, Luca!! Your "kingdom" consists of maybe four freshmen, a downtown studio apartment and that weird catapult thingy Danny's building in the basement! Don't you realize what you NEED? / [[A wide shot of the restaurant, all the patrons are looking at King Luca and Suzy Gee]] / [[Back to a closeup of the table. Suzy Gee has knocked over a candle]]
/ King Luca: A land war!
/ Suzy Gee: HELP! http://nukees.com/d/20000301.html |
| Nukees - Friday, March 3, 2000 | [[Suzy Gee and King Luca are sitting at a restaurant table]]
/ Suzy Gee: There's no bringing you back to reality, is there?
/ King Luca: YES! A holy conquest is in order! The empire of King Luca must expand to flourish! / [[Looking over King Luca's shoulder to Suzy Gee]]
/ Suzy Gee: We were talking about our relationship, Luca. If you think of me as some plebian [sic] who's not "worthy" of you, then maybe we should...
/ King Luca: I could conquer the psychology department... / [[Closeup of Suzy Gee and King Luca]]
/ Suzy Gee: {{shouting}} LUCA! LISTEN TO ME!!
/ King Luca: Then I will instate you as their Duchess. As royalty, it will be appropriate for us to date. / Suzy Gee: Keep talking... http://nukees.com/d/20000303.html |
| Nukees - Monday, March 6, 2000 | Gav: Ha! Now YOU'RE stuck in the ice!
/ Maritza: We're going to need a bigger squid
/ Teri [[Giant robot ant peripheral]]: Advance three meters and repeat phrase. / Gav: Danny! How's it going? How'd you guys get here?
/ Danny: I installed a ramjet through the reactor core. We flew here! / Gav: And how'd YOU find me? / Teri: I Fourier Transformed images of the Maritza unit from your Gavcam website then pattern-matched against New Zealand's science funding database to look up her location. / Gav: This is all very clever of you two.
/ Danny: Thanks!
/ Teri: I'm a more advanced species... Don't think I don't understand sarcasm. http://nukees.com/d/20000306.html |
| Nukees - Wednesday, March 8, 2000 | Maritza: So, this thing wants to kill you, does it?
/ Teri [[giant robot ant peripheral]]: Actually, I only dedicate 7% of my processor time to that task.
/ Maritza: And why isn't it killing you now? / Gav: It's nuclear powered. I assume the reactor shut down in the crash. A build-up of neutron absorbing xenon prevents a core restart for 24 hours until it decays.
/ Maritza: PLEASE don't explain that further. / Maritza: And what IS it exactly?
/ Gav: Her name is Teri. She's a computer program I wrote. I think she can control anything hooked up to the internet. / Maritza: Is that squid getting closer?
/ Gav: You ask some odd questions. http://nukees.com/d/20000308.html |

| Nukees - Wednesday, March 22, 2000 | Man: We're out here chasing a large radiation source. Probably waste dumping... but it disappeared.
/ Danny: That is because we sank it into the snow. / Man: What?
/ Gav: Aah! Danny just said this ship is kinda slow!
/ Danny: No, I did not!
/ Gav: He asked "Slower than ten knots?" / Man: That's because we're running at peak fuel efficiency.
/ Danny: A closed nuclear fuel cycle is more efficient! / Man: What?!
/ Gav: He said a closed nuclear fuel cycle is more efficient... http://nukees.com/d/20000322.html |
| Nukees - Friday, March 24, 2000 | Danny: Thanks for the ride! Good luck at your protest tomorrow! / Gav: Danny, they're protesting US tomorrow.
/ Danny: It is okay for them to have the wrong opinion. Besides, they understood my technical description of the ant/squid battle. / Gav: That's not what they "understood," Danny.
/ Danny: But they seemed to understand so clearly after I explained the water damage in the ant's servos. / Gav: I'm not sure they QUITE heard you say "We just soaked a few joints."
/ Danny: But why'd they offer us ride to that Cloyne co-op? http://nukees.com/d/20000324.html |
