I'm having a bit of a memory lapse at the moment... I think the ep I'm thinking of is A Neon Giant who Laughs at the Dark...Is that the ep where the mecha was hidden at the amusement park, with Katse dressed as a Pied Piper-type leading the giant mecha with that weird flute tune? Can someone give me a quick synopsis of the ep? I'm mainly looking for the Pied Piper-type relation (what exactly did the tune from the flute do? What was the effect it had on the people, etc).
I'm at work right now and can't look any info up. And yes, this is for a fic I'm writing!

Hino, From what I remember it really had no effect on people only on the mummy.
The music was what controlled the mummy and made it move.
The only effect on people was at the amusement park where Keyop/Jinpei appeared to to be entranced or drawn to the musicial who was playing.
Zoltar/Katse did not have or make the children do anything through listening to the music.
But all this is from memory too. Someone else may be able to give a better synopsis.
I got that on dvd!! Lemme check it out, and i can get back to you!!

Someone else may be able to give a better synopsis.CD is right....Katse controlled the giant by playing a flute. Katse disguised himself as a pied piper at a carnival, and his music entranced Jinpei and the kids at the carnival, but I don't really know what the purpose was... During the day the neon giant (aka musical mummy in BOTP) was hidden as a giant native american statue at the entrance to the amusement park. At night, Katse brought it to life with the flute and used it to kill ISO scientists, eventually going after Nambu. FWIW, the music always creeped me out...I cracked up when ADV Jun said it sounds like "Jethro Tull playing underwater"....LOL Here are a couple of screenies:

That's the one! Here's a good synopsis from Veronika's site:
Episode 24: The Neon Giant Laughing in the Dark
Scientists from the ISO headquarters are murdered one after the other and Nambu orders the Science Ninja Team to act as bodyguards.
The Science Ninja Team separate for their guard duty. During Ken's guard, he surprisingly meets Galactor's Ninja Blackbirds and follows them, but loses sight of them near an amusement park. At the same time, Jun and Jinpei are attacked by a Neon Giant which appeared accompanied by the sounds of a flute. In order to let the scientist escape, they offer themselves as bait, but fall off the street. Jun reports that the Neon Giant resembles the Indian statue standing before the amusement park where the Black Birds vanished. Because of that, the Science Ninja Team waits for the night and sneaks into the park to start investigating.
Since Jun said that she heard the sounds of a flute, Ken follows a flutist who leads him into an underground base. It's Katse in disguise. Katse tells Ken that this night, Nambu will get attacked.
Ken gets in contact with Joe and Ryu, telling them to hurry to Nambu's location, but he's caught in a pertinacious attack from the Black Birds. Before his eyes, Katse steers the Neon Giant with the flute's tune. When Jun and Jinpei intrude, Ken flings the flute away, and orders Jinpei to play on it. Through Jinpei's nonsensical tune, the Neon Giant overheats and explodes. The plan to asssasinate Nambu has failed.
You know, I just discovered recently that Ebony plays the flute... now I'm wondering about her....

Cloud then looks around to see if she can find the Owl so she can hide behind him for protection from TJ and her

Cloud spots the Owl moving towords the teams Ready room and 
leaving behind a cloud of dust.
As the dust begins to settle TJ notices an image forming out of the dust.
Cloud is hoping this will stop TJ.

Originally posted by Toneman by the way, TJ, what is that pic from? is it fan work or is it from an episode?It's from the show Time Bokkan, which is another Tatsunoko show. They did an episode where the main characters (who are villains) went to the Tatsunoko Kingdom) and met up with other Tatsunoko characters, including the Gatchaman team.
Okay, if this works, this is for TJ, and all those inquiring minds that wanted to know about a naked Mark by the pool. (I spent time today I should have been working on my research project adapting this pic. I believe it was originally Sayuri's.)
TJ and I were talking and she had mentioned how serious Mark usually is, and I said he can have his playful moments, and I went on to describe one of them. So this is it.
Can you hear the beat of the music as Mark performs his striptease for Princess by the moonlight and poolside lanturns.
Ok, this was definitely worth waiting for!!

And will I believe your answer if you tell me?
Springie puts on her Nambu glasses and begins...
*ahem*lemmee see...
smut : (smuh t) fanfic writing genre involving any two characters doing the "horizontal mambo" and any activities leading to the act thereof.
eg.- Cloudy should write and post some smut fics!

Hmm..... well dancing, even in the nude, is usually on the vertical plane so I should be okay there.
And from what I remember, the 'dancing' did not lead to any horizontal activites afterwards so.....
Cloud wonders if she should head off and ask someone elses opinion.
