I am working on a clip for this discussion, but right now I must drive down to my dad's place (just short of 100 miles) to take him to his eye doctor. I will post the clip later today.Humongulus makes an exclamation in Latin, Non est fridigidus that probably should be translated as "Not remotely lifeless." -- Billy Catringer (talk) 10:30, March 18, 2015 (UTC)

Didn't think of that translation, Billy - good thought. Frigidus: literally "cold," figuratively "dull, lifeless." I figured it was "Why can't I move? I'm not frozen!" but I like your "It's not dead yet!" NathanTheRammer (talk) 13:28, March 18, 2015 (UTC)

Someone on Facebook took it more as an idiom: "That is not cool" --AndyAB99 (talk) 15:10, March 18, 2015 (UTC)

I suspect this was the intended meaning, no matter how inaccurate the Latin may be.--Geoduck42 (talk) 07:53, March 19, 2015 (UTC)

Thank you, Nathan. I used an onlin Latin-to-English dictionary to puzzle this one out. It was the only interpretation that I could imagine making sense under the portrayed circumstances. -- Billy Catringer (talk) 06:44, March 19, 2015 (UTC)

It's a clank and all, but... that's still pretty gruesome. --MadCat221 (talk) 14:11, March 18, 2015 (UTC)

Who will rescue the good guys this time? Is it the bears' turn again? Maybe, but the Beast knows about them now and is presumably allowing for them. We need a different deus ex machina. It this Violetta's moment? Or Dimo's? NathanTheRammer (talk) 18:51, March 19, 2015 (UTC)

Violetta the sneaky super-thief would be the obvious choice. --Geoduck42 (talk) 19:50, March 19, 2015 (UTC)

D'ya 'spose Violetta can swap Tweedle for everyone else? -- Billy Catringer (talk) 01:38, March 20, 2015 (UTC)

I think they'll be saved by the Beast's panicked overestimation of its scant remaining energy reserves. Or maybe Humongulus exerting himself so much that Beastie burns up the rest trying to hold him down.--MadCat221 (talk) 02:07, March 20, 2015 (UTC)
