Twisted Metal – Season 2 Episode 2 'DOLF4C3' Recap & Review

DOLF4C3 Episode 2 of Twisted Metal season 2 begins ten years ago with Dollface staging a coup with a bunch of other women, who are forced out from sitting with the boys. They're relegated to the back, where it becomes apparent that these guys are actually calling the shots. They sit and smoke weed together, until Dollface propositions the girls and they work to usurp the men in the other room who are more preoccupied with dick measuring contests (quite literally too, given the tape measure we see at the table!) It doesn't take long for the girl to kick the guys out, gunning them down in bloody glory. Back in the present, John awakens to find himself chained to a bed in the Dollface camp. Quiet and John are reunited here, as is Krista (Dollface) who calls John by the name of Lionel and confirms that she's his sister. John has amnesia though and awkwardly embraces her when he finds out. Dollface soon shows him around the whole camp, including showcasing exactly what they have brewing – and what they intend to do. Quiet encourages John to open up and not cut himself off afterwards, pointing out how standoffish he's being with his sister. However, cutting himself off is precisely what John wants right now, as he propositions Quiet with heading off to a remote cabin together where they can live happily ever after. Quiet though is adamant that she wants to join the tournament and she's going to win. When she does, her wish will be to break the Walls down – Chris Jericho style. John believes she's been brainwashed and confronts his sister about this, but Dollface is quick to reinforce that all of this was obviously Quiet's choice. John decides to step up and compete with both Ashley and Quiet for the opportunity to lead the Dolls in this tournament. Quiet drives really well and ultimately comes out on top. John is conflicted as Quiet is different from the one he's come to know in season 1. John eventually swallows his pride and offers her some encouraging words, thanks in part to his sister's wisdom, and Quiet eventually allows him to join her during the tournament. However, they need some good weapons to stand a chance, so that means driving on over to Diesel City. As the episode closes out, we cut across to Blackfield Asylum, where a letter arrives for Mr. Grimm. He's encouraged to drive on behalf of Calypso. 'We will,' He replies, picking up his helmet. The Episode Review So the second episode focuses almost exclusively on John and Quiet, as their long-awaited reunion takes place but it doesn't quite go to plan. Quiet is a very different person now and that much is especially true when you consider how she's bonded with the Dolls and found purpose with them. The ending to the episode does a good job bringing back some of the old magic that John and Quiet had though, with their banter in particular working to rekindle some of the crackling chemistry we saw in season 1. With Grimm entering this tournament, not to mention the wildcard of Sweet Tooth and Stu, we'll have to wait and see exactly what's in store for our titular characters next. Either way, it's going to be a bloody good time! Previous Episode Next Episode Expect A Full Season Write-Up When This Season Concludes!

Snoopy and the Gang Hit the High Notes in Fun Trailer for SNOOPY PRESENTS: A SUMMER MUSICAL — GeekTyrant

If you're looking for some wholesome summer vibes wrapped in nostalgia and music, Apple TV+ has you covered. They've dropped a delightful trailer for their upcoming original special, Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical , and it looks like a charming blend of campfire fun, emotional stakes, and toe-tapping tunes. This fresh addition to the Snoopy Presents lineup follows Charlie Brown, Sally, Snoopy, and the rest of the Peanuts gang as they head to summer camp. Charlie is determined to make his last year at camp count, while Sally, who's a first-time camper, isn't exactly thrilled about the unfamiliar setting. Things really kick off when Snoopy and Woodstock stumble upon a treasure map that sends them on an unexpected adventure. But it's not all marshmallows and campfire songs. The gang learns that their beloved camp is shutting down due to dwindling attendance. This news hits Charlie Brown hard. He's heartbroken at the thought of losing a place packed with so many good memories and sets out to do something about it. 'One morning, the Peanuts gang learns that their beloved camp is shutting down because there are fewer campers joining each summer. The news especially saddens Charlie Brown, who feels hopeless about losing a place that has meant so much to him and his friends and is determined to preserve its legacy. 'Meanwhile, on their adventure, Snoopy and Woodstock find the sought-after treasure chest, but are quickly disappointed when they discover it's not riches, but instruments and photos from past summer concerts held at the camp. Newly inspired, Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang use the treasure to host their own concert to save the camp.' This musical special is packed with original songs including 'When We Were Light,' 'Look Up, Charlie Brown,' and 'Leave It Better' by Ben Folds, as well as 'Best Time Ever' and 'A Place Like This' by Jeff Morrow, Alan Zachary, and Michael Weiner. 'This summer, celebrate the joy and magic of summer camp and the importance of preserving what you love. Charlie Brown loves camp and is determined to make his final year special, but Sally – a first-time camper – is nervous and skeptical of the new and unfamiliar place. While everyone settles into camp, Snoopy and Woodstock discover a treasure map that takes them on a wild adventure nearby.' Directed by Erik Wiese and written by Craig Schulz, Bryan Schulz, and Cornelius Uliano, the special is produced by Peanuts and WildBrain exclusively for Apple TV+. Executive producers include C. Schulz, B. Schulz, Uliano, Paige Braddock, Josh Scherba, Stephanie Betts, and Logan McPherson. With 2025 marking the 75th anniversary of Snoopy and the rest of the gang, Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical feels like the perfect celebration of their enduring charm. Apple TV+ remains the official home for all Peanuts content, so fans have plenty of reasons to tune in and sing along. The special premieres globally on Friday, August 15, and it's the first Peanuts musical in a whopping 37 years.

Local summer camp receives almost $200,000 for improvements

Kiwanis Sunshine Point Camp has been granted $198,000, thanks to the Ontario Trillium Foundation. Loading the player instance is taking more time than usual Loading the player instance is taking more time than usual The Kiwanis Sunshine Point Camp received a cheque from the Ontario Trillium foundation for $198,000, which staff said was much needed money to help expand the staff lodge. The camp has been running for 78 years, offering kids various educational and recreational summer activities. The camp is situated on five acres of land on the shores of Lake Erie in Harrow. The youth program offered is a five-night, six-day overnight camp for children offered for seven weeks over the summer. The camp is accredited by the Ontario Camp Association.

(Gary Archibald/CTV News Windsor) Most of the cost of attending camp is covered by public and private donations. Some of the campers of today are expected to return in the future as camp counsellors. Daniel Inverarity is chair of fundraising for the camp. Inverarity and the organization are grateful for all donations made to the camp, however, additional resources are sometimes needed to cover unforeseen costs of operations, site upgrades, and construction. 'We've used the entire budget of $198,000, but there were some cost overruns that somehow I'm going to have to dig up another $20,000 to finish it off,' said Inverarity. 'But I'll worry about that later because that wasn't in the budget.'
