Plot Synopsis


When his console explodes in his face. Johnny gets a makeover.

Plot Summary


In combat the Muffin receives a hit that results in an overload of Johnny's console. This, of course, results in a massive explosion in Johnny's face, we all knew was coming. Johnny is rushed to sickbay where his glasses are replaced with better components?. His ratty old outfit was also "accidently" destroyed resulting in him finally donning a regulation uniform.
Johnny uses his new eyes to enhance his usual lechery, however no programs for hindsight were installed in the glasses.
Several interludes follow where 46 questions Robin's masculenity, Ensign Shirt is attacked by animals. The Lexx is splattered across the ship's windsheild, and Belinda's "appreciation" for Red and Robin is expressed quantitatively.
