Page Notes
Episode published on Friday 8th of June, 2007.
There's a theme of recurring characters in Resident Evil 4; Leon's back from RE2, Ada's back from RE2, Wesker's back from RE, and apparently Jack Krauser's back. Oops, you don't remember Krauser? Well tough, this game assumes you remember the imaginary game he never took part in because he never existed before this game. But that's a commentary for another episode.
Ada appears in various functions and, annoyingly, has a sub-quest that infers that her story matters more than Leon's. It doesn't. If it wasn't for Leon's epic tale of President's daughter savery, she'd have a much harder time using her cheap-arse grapple to skip large chunks of level and wouldn't have a distraction to make her job easier. Ada makes out in Separate Ways (her exclusive game mode) that what she's doing matters more than Leon's much harder adventure in the main mode. Well guess what? We never heard of what happened to Ada in Resident Evil 5, and Leon got his own film (Resident Evil Degeneration). Hahahaha! This is made funnier considering Ada's files and the plot of RE5...I'll explain later.
I'm not bitter. I just resent when I've invested so much in one character, only for another to come along and tell me I'm wrong (I'm eyeing you up too, Red Dead Redemption!).

Title - 44: "Occupant Sin 4"
Subtitle - xxv. "Hey, Evil Woman"
(We see one of the castle's walls. Suddenly, it collapses as a robed zealot is thrown through it from the other side by Ben. Pain steps through the new hole in the wall as dust settles around him.)
Pain: Well this is a damn sight quicker than looking for blasted keys and whatnot, but we're still lost as hell.
(Ben strokes his left arm with his right hand.)
Ben: And that last trap nearly took mah arm off.
(The Captain loots the zealot's body, which is bleeding out on the floor. He finds a small blue box with a picture of a bullet on it.)
Captain: These zealot dudes sure are cranky. You ever wonder why they all carry bullets but not guns?
(Pain rubs his chin with a hand in consideration. Sneaking past in the shadows behind him is a feminine figure in a magenta dress.)
Pain: Probably because they can't afford them. You've seen the merchant's prices. In fact, that gives me an idea...
(Pain catches a glimpse of the figure sneaking behind him in the corner of his eye and swings around, barely missing the figure. Ben and the Captain also noticed something in the shadows.)
Captain: Wasn't that your accountant?
(Pain adjusts his tie absent-mindedly.)
Pain: Don't be absurd.
(A woman appears on the balcony next to them. She is wearing a formal dress in bright magenta, small dark glasses and a pair of black high-heeled shoes. She wields a pistol, and has a hand on her hip expectantly. As she speaks, she catches the attention of the trio below them.)
Woman: Hello, boys.
Pain: Bloody hell, it is my accountant! What are you doing here, Samara?
Woman: I'm not Samara, I'm Sam...ada. Yeah. 'Samada Wrong'.
Pain: Riiight. What the hell are you doing here, (making air quotes with his fingers) 'Samada'.
(The Captain leans in towards Pain and speaks from behind the back of his hand.)
Captain: She's probably after your sex. You are nailing her, right?
Pain: (unimpressed) Shush.
Samada: You'll see! See you around!
(She tosses her sunglasses at the trio, which burst open with a loud "POOF" into a cloud of smoke that engulfs the three. As the smoke dissipates, Pain smiles.)
Pain: Ah, the old smoke-bomb glasses ploy. Should've seen that one coming!
Captain: Yeah, right.
Episode tagline: I do so enjoy a good smoke-bomb glasses ploy, yes.
