Deadly Classis an 80s-set drama about a bunch of high school misfits.
How did it take them until episode four to do aBreakfast Clubhomage?
But having established the basic tenets of aBreakfast Clubriff,Deadly Classpromptly blows it up.
It starts with Petra, who suggests the gang work together break out of the detention hall.
A sealed room in which every item confiscated from Kings Dominion students is kept.
Even Saya lets down her hair a little, jumping the dirt bike over a makeshift spike pit.
But as always on this series, death isntthatfar away.
These guys have already invaded the school, and theyll kill anybody who gets between them and Saya.
We hardly knew ye.
(I mean it wereallyhardly knew ye.)
Petra and Viktor both get slashed in the escape.
Still, everybody except Jaden makes it to the relative safety of the detention hall.
The Kuroki guys manage to capture Saya, but Marcus tails them to a diner full of corpses.
Alls well that ends well?
When Marcus gets back downstairs, his buddy Billy is waiting for him.
But Billy concerned for the safety of his mother and little brother has finally had enough.
Hes ready to go to Las Vegas to kill his father, and he wants Marcus to join him.
And that meansDeadly Classis poised to cross off yet another teen-movie staple: road trip!
So yeah, hard to fault Petra for the grumpy goth thing.
This weeks big 80s cut is In Between Days by the Cure, fromThe Head on the Door.
Chico reveals it was his dead brothers favorite album.
Theres also a spirited discussion about how much of RoboCop is robot/man.
(Per the poster, for what its worth: Part Man, Part Machine, All Cop.)
