Cute Robot, hot Fascist babe - the Sequel

     I don't know if I already wrote this, so excuse me if I'm repeating
myself.

     The sequel to "Cry Turmoil" was going to be "Turmoil 2:The
Revenge". Some of the writers hated cutesy stuff, but one of them wasn't
Glenn Leopold, who intended the ep to have the second appearance of
"Cybertron", the cute little robot from "Deadly Pyramid", which I suppose
wasn't as damaged as we were led to believe. Lance Falk apparently
didn't like Cybertron at all, the reason given as it was just in the show
for cute value. I kind of liked it in the one appearance, but thought
that continued appearances would have detracted from Razor and T-Bone's
handling of situations using their own initiative. If you think about
it, Cybertron saved their bacon twice in the "Pyramid" ep - once when the
TurboKat was about to ground-loop into the mountainside, and later on
when Razor and T-Bone have their backs turned to the menacing mummy that
shoots at them. For Dr. Who fans, Cybertron reminded me very much of
"K-9", a kind of computer/mechanical dog with roughly the same
personality and application.
