Bio-Nik Episode 16 Review: The Return of Lisa

Episod 16 telah pun bersiaran last Monday. Baru sahaja 3 episod down for this season and already it's getting interesting. Episod kali ini menampilkan kebangkitan Lisa yang baru, resolusi Dr Harris dan Jimmy terhadap keengganan Johan bekerjasama dan an unexpected revelation. Mari3 kita singkap semula episod ini...

"I strongly suggest that you start looking into your client's request, if you're still interested in becoming a big man"

Episod starts with the conversation between Dr Harris and Agron Trotsky. Agron is not happy with the progress of the project but Dr Harris is not scared of his threat (Did anyone notice Dr Harris repeated the same sentence twice?). Dia menceritakan tentang kekurangan dana untuk membiayai projek ini dan juga tentang Nik dan keluarga.
Agron seems to think this should not be a problem and he should just take care of Nik and Family. Kesimpulannya, Dr Harris mengarahkan Jimmy menyelesaikan masalah Johan.

"Ingat Nik, jangan bagi pisang berbuah dua kali"

As we know, at the end of the last episode Nik finally read Lisa's email for help. So Nik pun pergi berjumpa ayahnya untuk menceritakan tentang email tersebut. Prof Hafiz mengingatkan Nik untuk tidak get involve with Lisa again as it can lead to danger for the family. Dia suruh Nik untuk just ignore the email memandangkan emel sahaja boleh membuatkan Nik bertindak celaru. Besides that, Prof Hafiz juga menunjukkan suit ciptaannya kepada Nik.

"Kalau Papa Q, Nik-lah James Bond-nye, kan?"

Di rumah Aina, Aina kerisauan kerana Nik tidak menghubunginya untuk mengucapkan Selamat Hari Jadi kepadanya. She however receives an SMS from Johan to come downstairs and is serenaded by the 3 Amigos singing Happy Birthday (Spot tak Prof Khairul? Haha..). Dalam pada Aina nak mengadakan majlis hari jadi, tiba-tiba Johan mengajak Aina keluar makan malam. Kesian yang penat-penat datang kena tunggu Aina untuk balik nanti. What will they do sementara itu? Oh ya, the 3 Amigos ada for entertainment.

"These 3 jokers is just the beginning of our wonderful night"

Meanwhile, Lisa finally wakes up. She toils with a nearby computer to get information on Nik's whereabout. Sebaik mendapat maklumat tersebut, Lisa melarikan diri untuk mencari Nik. Tanpa diketahui, Dr Harris sedang memerhatikan melalui CCTV. He didn't stop Lisa as he has a plan of his own. Di rumah Nik, cerita Prof Hafiz pasal lamaran di Elite Restaurant (Tribute to kumpulan Elite? Also, bukan sebelum ni Stardust namanye?) mengingatkan Nik that it was Aina's birthday. Sebelum Nik dapat beredar, Lisa appears at the front gate to warn him that Aina and Johan is in danger.

"Yang penting sekarang, Aina dan Johan dalam bahaya"

Johan and Aina's date went wrong bila Johan tidak putus-putus menceritakan kecemburuannya terhadap Nik. Ini membuatkan Aina marah terhadap Johan and ask to leave. On the way, Jimmy tiba dan cuba mengugut keselamatan mereka dengan kuasa pyro-nya. Jimmy attacks both of them during the commercial break I guess since Aina sudah tidak kelihatan. At this time, she probably fainted already. Johan pula sudah dibelasah teruk. One final blow from Jimmy and Johan is out. Jimmy membawa Johan ke lab Dr Harris. Dr Harris is however worried about this since Aina saw him kidnap Johan.

"Bayangkan aku adalah Johan dan kau pula adalah Jimmy! Macam mana rasanya?"

Sementara itu, Lisa tries to convince Nik yang dia memang Lisa dengan memancarkan memorinya ke dalam kepala Nik, including introducing Dr Harris and his plan to get Nik by using her. Di sini Lisa menceritakan all the plans yang Jimmy and Dr Harris has with Agron Trotsky. I'm not particularly fond of this plot. Mengkomersialkan programme ADAM. Doesn't really sound like sampai perlu bunuh-membunuh untuk buat bisnes. Nik cuba mendapatkan maklumat tentang kedudukan Dr Harris tetapi Dr Harris berjaya mengawal Lisa untuk bertindak menyerang Nik. The fights scene effects look cool but Lisa tak nampak macam bersungguh-sungguh throwing a punch. Before ending Nik's life, tiba-tiba Lisa seperti kembali normal. Lisa tries to prevent Dr Harris from controlling her by causing damage to her arm.

"Kau perlukan bukti? Baik, mari aku tunjukkan"

Di rumah, Nik membawa Lisa kembali and ask Prof Hafiz and Kamal for help to fix Lisa. The 'Terminator' effect of Lisa's inner skull is cool. Looks almost as if it's real. Prof Hafiz manage to analyze Lisa's chip and finds out that she has been programmed to destroy Nik. Prof Hafiz is worried of this sebab it was exactly what he warned Nik not to do. Nik leaves to the dining room only to find out about Aina and Johan's rendezvous the previous night. Konon nak marah Aina tetapi bila dapat tahu Aina di hospital tak jadi. Downstairs, Prof Hafiz ask Kamal to further analyze chip Lisa to find out more about her.

"Version 3? Version 1 pun terkial-kial..."

Di lab Dr Harris, Johan awakens but still enggan untuk menolong mereka. Jadi dia ditinggalkan bersendirian terikat. Nik arrives at the hospital to express his dissatisfaction with the news of Aina and Johan dating. Jahat gila Nik nak salahkan Aina sendiri tentang kecelakaan yang menimpanya. Back at home, Kamal finds a portion of Lisa's memory that is of interest to Prof Hafiz. It was a vision of an accident that looks like Nik's accident masa episod 1 dulu dari pandangan kereta yang melanggar Nik. Awesome. I assume Lisa was in the car but what does this tell us? Adakah ini bermakna Lisa terlibat dalam kemalangan tersebut menjadikan itu sebab dia jadi bionik? Or Nik's accident itself was all part of an elaborate plan? This is getting interesting...

"Kalau aku dah mati, engkau bukan orang pertama yang aku jumpa!"

Secara keseluruhan, I like this episod kerana banyak yang berlaku. Tidak meleret cerita-ceritanya. Best part, the revelation at the membuatkan saya teruja kerana this was something totally unexpected from me. Ke korang dah agak dari dulu? Huhu. Can't wait for next episode.
