   [1]Sluggy Freelance -- Finally, we're back to Aylee! I'm still
   predicting she comes out human. Pete starts with a quick recap of
   everything that led up to her current condition, and then shows what
   happens when Schlock discovers that the faint energy readings from her
   years-long cocooned state have died out. Realizing that once the
   others discover what's happened, he'll be in big trouble (after all,
   they brought him there specifically to do what he could for Aylee),
   Schlock keeps it a secret while he plans his escape, with some
   unwitting help from Kiki. Meanwhile, Pete's started a countdown for
   some purpose he won't explain, likely Aylee's emergence from her
   cocoon. What? I don't for a second believe she's actually dead.
   [2]Day by Day -- Chris Muir is embedded in Iraq. Sheesh, there are
   more bloggers embedded over there than reporters right now. In the
   meantime, he's running some old favorites. Democrats unable to decide
   who the enemy is, Jan and Damon clashing over politics, Sam and Zed
   flirting... it's all good.
   [3]Scary Go Round -- In order to determine whether the serum that
   turned Dr. What's-his-name into a mindless monster will do the same to
   Erin, Amy and Shelley seduce a couple of scientists from his lab,
   getting a close look at what the good doctor has wrought, with a
   little advice from Ryan on what scientists are looking for. I wonder
   how he knows.
   [4]Dominic Deegan -- Dominic spends some time going through
   applications to become the Headmaster at his mother's school. Most of
   them turn out to be pretty bad, but two of the applicants, already
   teachers there, are the best. So he'll be passing those on to his
   mother. Unfortunately, so much use of his second sight has given him
   Seer's Shroud--he's temporarily blinded. Which makes Luna's attempt to
   seduce him less fun. Of course, his sense of touch is working fine,
   but Melna quickly interrupts the exercise to explain to Luna what her
   problem is.
   [5]College Roomies from Hell!!! -- Oh, no. This is bad! Well, not so
   much Dave's good-bye kiss to Margaret. That was nice, and kind of
   necessary for now, but I'm a firm believer that those two will get
   together in the end. I'm referring to Mike kissing April, except that
   it's not Mike anymore. It looks like Stanny is taking his ten minutes
   now. We really could use some divine intervention, or IFWA, or Roger
   or Dave, or even Chester. Roger's still bemoaning his loss of Diane,
   though, and Harry's plan to brainwash Mike seems to be running into
   trouble. Instead, he's going to go after Dave, even though the
   Dragon's goons don't want to touch him.
   [6]Schlock Mercenary -- With the enemy seizing the ship, the
   mercenaries are in trouble. Kevyn uses one of his explosive epaulets
   to get rid of a tank, and a bunch of goons, and Elf's power armor, and
   almost himself, except that Elf gives him a heave at the last moment.
   Unfortunately, despite that powerful counterattack, there's no chance
   to get to the shuttle, and Elf has to send the shuttle crew on ahead.
