Episode published on Saturday 15th of September, 2007.
While playing Resident Evil 4, you'll learn to make a habit of kicking through doors. It's just safer in case there's anything waiting for you on the other side. Alternatively, it just alerts all the soldiers to your presence, so a bit of a double-edged sword.

Title - 55: "Occupant Sin 4"
Subtitle - xxxvi. "Craving Control"
(The trio of Pain, Ben and the Captain walk down another corridor. The Captain is visibly trembling and sweating.)
Captain: Need...smokes...
Pain: Oh for crying out loud! You've been without a cigarette for only five bloody minutes!
Captain: I'm going through cold turkey!
(Peon F. Kennedy listens to the conversation smugly from behind the door at the end of the corridor. Pain raises his arms angrily, the Captain backs off.)
Pain: You're not!
Captain: I'm sweating!
Ben: Calm down, laddie.
Peon (thinking): Heh. I'll just kick this door down and take them by surprise! I'm so great!
(He lifts his leg and is about to kick the door open.)
Peon: YEAHH-
(The door swings violently into his face as the Captain bursts through, running.)
SFX: WHAM!
Captain: NEED SMOKES!
(Peon slides down to the floor against the wall next to the door, his nose glowing from the impact. Pain steps through the door followed by Ben, who has to duck down as he's too tall to walk through the door normally.)
Pain: We'll have to find him something. He's like a hyperactive bluebottle without his *fags.
*"Fags" in this case is the thoroughly British word for cigarettes, not a nasty phrase for homosexuals.
(Pain notices Peon behind the door. Grinning, he offers his hand and helps the stunned agent to his feet.)
Pain: Oh. Hello! I take it you're the secret service guy I've heard so much about?
Peon: Uh-huh!
(Pain puts his right hand on Peon's shoulder in a friendly manner. He jerks his thumb on his left hand in the direction of the corridor he came from.)
Pain: You're probably looking for that blonde kid. We saw her back that way.
Peon: Oh. Thanks!
Pain: A couple of zombie-soldier types were bending her over a table...
(Peon, panicked, takes off at top speed down the corridor.)
Peon: HAYLEY!
Ben: ...He'll be gutted when he realises you were lying.
(Pain steeples his fingers, grinning evilly.)
Pain: I know.
(Pain notices a sign next to a set of stairs conveniently in English, marked "COMM. ROOM". He walks off towards the stairs, talking to Ben over his shoulder.)
Pain: I'll be five minutes. Just do me a favour and make sure that the Captain doesn't do anything too bloody stupid.
Ben: Aye!
Episode tagline: Peon was a pain in the arse to draw in this episode. I think he's finally twigged on to what his ultimate purpose boils down to in the Detulux Inc universe.
Footnote: Sharper readers will note how Ben appears to have dropped the huge axe he picked up back in episode 52, this is obviously because it was too big to fit through the door and not because I have the continuity skills of a diseased lemming and forgot to draw it in...honest.
