2.2 - ¡Viva la Revolución!

About this episode

The episode follows a group of robots and their human companion as they navigate a murder mystery with political implications.

What's in The Rift is a Cortex Prime Actual Play. Season 2 follows three hapless robots (ChroniCarl, PsychoBot 2000, and Helpis) plus their one human companion (Donny Fink) as they are dragged unwillingly into a murder mystery that may have far-reaching political ramifications. Of course, they can't be bothered with that unless dragged kicking and screaming by their GM back into the story. Episode 2 - ¡Viva la Revolución! The stakes of Helpis's continued existence become apparent, as MARTY I attempts to conceal the party away in his palatial apartment on the hull of the Endeavor. ChroniCarl and Donny discover a new way to charge a robot, and Psychobot2000 attempts to psychoanalyze the captain at just about the worst time imaginable. Oh, and there's a MURDER. Dun dun dun.
