It's the spectacular return of the stupid.
SEED: The Blooper Files.
Kira Inadvertently Kills Nicol, Take 1
(The Strike moves in for the kill, anti-ship sword drawn and ready to cut through the Aegis' armor; Nicol and the Blitz Gundam move in to take the blow for Athrun, but...)
Nicol: (kicking the thrusters into full blast by accident, hurling him a good way across the island; the unit's leg is sheared off) WAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Athrun: What-?
Kira: (pauses for a moment as the Strike's Schwert Gewehr immediately plants itself in the ground, before sticking his head out of the cockpit) That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?
Athrun: Nope.
Vengeful Moon: (irate and glaring at everyone on the set) Did someone properly tune the thrusters on that thing? Or was it another of your screwups at work?
Nicol: My bad! Sorry! Need to be more careful next time...
Vengeful Moon: Rrrrgh. Just be glad that we're having a stunt double take your death here, Nicol. I know you're not fond of situations like this.
Nicol: No kidding...
Dearka: Hey, it could have been worse.
Yzak: Why the hell are we recording these scenes out of order anyway?
Vengeful Moon: We'll just put them together in editing; not like people are going to notice the difference, right?
Yzak: Provided no one actually screws THAT up...
Vengeful Moon: It'll be fine. Anyway, cut!
Kira Inadvertently Kills Nicol, Take 2
(The Strike moves in for the kill, anti-ship sword drawn and ready to cut through the Aegis' armor; Nicol and the Blitz Gundam move in to take the blow, just as scripted, and a moment before the Schwert Gewehr makes contact...)
Vengeful Moon: Okay, cut! Perfect.
Nicol: (heaves a sigh of relief) Phew...alright, guess my job's done.
Vengeful Moon: That went surprisingly smoothly. Let's just hope the rest of it goes as well...
Nicol: Right.
Yzak: I wonder if he realizes just how (redacted) badly he's jinxed himself.
Dearka: Probably not.
Kira: (pokes his head out of the cockpit) We ready to go? It's a little awkward having to hold the Strike like this...
Vengeful Moon: Hold your horses, we're getting on it.
(VM signals for the double, and they switch places with Nicol, ready to continue.)
Vengeful Moon: Okay-ACTION!
(The scene continues as planned, but there's something wrong...)
Athrun: Oy, Kira-!
Kira: What!?
Athrun: You're in too close!
Kira: ...Oh, cra-
(The Strike and the Blitz both blow up, leaving a smoldering crater. Kira and the double, thankfully, survive.)
Vengeful Moon: Ah, hell. Just had to open my big fat (redacted) mouth...
Kira: (coughing up soot as he emerges from the explosion) Hey, director?
Vengeful Moon: Yeah?
Kira: Next time, just let Nicol do it...
Nicol: BUT I DON'T WANT TO!
Athrun: Sorry, but it looks like there isn't any other way to get through this take in one go.
Nicol: Urrrrgh.
Vengeful Moon: Gah. Alright, cut! We'll work on this scene again in a bit; stunt double, you're free to go.
Stunt Double: NEVER ASK ME TO DO SOMETHING THIS CRAZY AGAIN, YOU (redacted)!
Vengeful Moon: (facepalms)
Kira Inadvertently Kills Nicol, Take 3
(The scene goes as planned all the way up to Nicol getting cut in the stomach; Kira backs the Strike up as he stares on in shock, Athrun unable to believe what just happened himself.)
Nicol: Athrun...my piano...take care of it...for me-
(Blood fills his helmet, and the Blitz explodes.)
Athrun: ...
Kira: ...I...I didn't-
Nicol: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Kira: What-!?
(Nicol promptly lands on the Strike's head, right within view of the sensors.)
Kira: ...Uh...Nicol?
Athrun: Oh, (redacted), here we go...
Vengeful Moon: CUT! Nicol, what the HELL!?
Nicol: (dazed and trying to pull himself together) I think I hit the wrong switch trying to get out of the Blitz...must have...hit the ejection seat by mistake...
Yzak: (facepalms) Now I know how (redacted) the director must feel whenever he has to deal with the rest of us.
Dearka: Least we don't have to go through any death scenes ourselves. (facepalms as well)
Vengeful Moon: Fantastic, that's TWO Blitz Gundams we'll have to pay for later. Thanks a lot.
Nicol: Sorry... (dazedly falls off the Strike's head) WAAAAAH-!
Kira: Oh, (redacted)!
Vengeful Moon: CATCH HIM, YOU IDIOT-!
(Before either of them can move their MS to do so, Nicol hits a few tree branches, slowing his fall - but not enough to save the poor chap from a few injuries...)
Nicol: Uuuuuuuuuuuugh...
Athrun: ...Nicol? You okay?
Nicol: ...Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurgh...
Athrun: ...Uh, director?
Vengeful Moon: (facepalms) And you two bumbling (redacted)s are supposed to be Coordinators...
Kira: ...Our bad.
Cagalli: (peeks over at Rau) What? Not even going to wisecrack about how much they screwed up?
Rau: I got placed with a restraining order, you blonde di-
Cagalli: BAHAHAHAHA!
Rau: ...mbulb. Grrrrrrrgh.
Yzak: Hate to say it, boss, but you had it comin' after you sacked the director.
Rau: (grumbles incoherently)
Vengeful Moon: Ah, well. That's it for now; let's get Nicol an ambulance. Stat.
The cast, sans Rau and Nicol: Got it.
A special kind of stupendous and dumb.
