I just watched "Absolute Power" for the first time today. I've never seen it before. How the heck did it get away from me for all these years? O.o Wow.
I really wasn't missing much.
Gee, Challenger. That was awfully ethnocentric of you to melt their Golden Puzzle Deity. The BanjoKazooie Slavers are sad. Ol' Georgie boy is kind of an asshole in this episode. I don't like the diamond bribe scene, or the T-Rex scene, or his being all clammy and pasty with fever scene. (I was writing this as I watched the eppy. So excuse the nonsensicalness. )
I do like the fact that despite Challenger's absolute power corrupting him absolutely, the rest of the expedition don't jump on the power bandwagon. Not that I ever thought they would. But it was nice to see that Marguerite wasn't thrilled, Roxton was downright disgusted, and Summerlee was pissed.
Overall, I guess it wasn't that bad. The ending made up for the first half of the episode.
I'm still in awe at the fact that I've never seen this episode before. It's like Christmas came super early and I received the only gift that mattered. YouTube = <3 .
What's black and blue and floats down river? ;)
