Machine is the fourth episode of Season 1 and Guard Duty overall. This episode sees the guards encountering a repair robot sent by HQ to fix their broken fax machine.

Description

A repair droid arrives to fix the fax machine, but it provides a little more than what the guards were asking for.

Characters

Black Out Guards

HQ

High Ground Guards

Other

Trivia

  • This episode occurs one day after the previous episode.
    • The title of this episode combines with the prior episode's title, Fax, to make "Fax Machine," to signify this episodes continues directly after it.
  • The repair robot's appearance is an intentional reference to Pink from WarGames and a subtle one to June as she appeared in Classic Season 1 with the Mark V helmet and CQB chest plate.
  • This episode reintroduces the guards of Outpost High Ground from Major Malfunction and WarGames. Blankslate reprises his role as O'Brien from the latter.
    • This episode also introduces Jasper as the original captain of High Ground before being killed by Emery. He was originally planned to appear in Major Malfunction, to be introduced in its unrealized fourth episode with Blankslate providing his voice, though he was to be established as always having been there via retcon and be the same rank as Collins and Jones. Regardless, Blankslate did indeed provide Jasper's voice in this episode over ten years after this scrapped appearance, albeit with different voice direction that would later lead to him taking over as Miller from Syp in the following episode.
  • Revoltge and TheiDsStudios reprise their roles as Emery and Prim respectively from Classic Season 2.
  • Sarah's title as engineer is once again questioned by Miller, first doing so in Wish.
  • Nicole calls Robot a "Bionicle reject", in reference to the BIONICLE toyline.
  • Sarah calling Miller a "sad, strange little man" is a reference to the 1995 animated film Toy Story, in which Buzz Lightyear calls Woody the same thing.
  • This is the last episode with Syp The Mighty as the voice of Miller, with Blankslate taking over the role in the following episode.
  • The events of this episode are recounted by Geff in a video recording observed by Pidge Emmel and Fawkes McShane in Wiped from the Galaxy, the second episode of Red Line.

Errors

  • The word "Premiere" is misspelled during the end credits as "Premire." Syp only noticed after the episode was uploaded, but felt it was not a big deal.
