Episode in Detail


On a foggy morning the actually nocturnal Jerriko, Yin Uuzoo, arrives on the island of Kaso. Aside of finding a place to sleep she is also looking for the best martial arts training facility on the island and so asks around for help.

During conversations she discovers that she is the only snake on the entire island and, feeling slightly out of place, makes her way through the streets, ending up at a dark street corner, where she stumbles over a rat. After a short conversation with the rodent she gets her answer on the best martial arts practician on the island: Ryahno.

She follows the rat's directions, which lead her to the park, where she challenges the woman to a fight, claiming to the be best martial arts master in Vitra. Ryahno however knows that she is lying about this fact and refuses to properly fight the snake, instead letting her tire herself out, while merely evading any incoming attacks.

However, despite the lie she senses potential in Uuzoo and so asks her about her intentions on the island. When she discovers the snake's lack of planning, she is irritated, but takes it upon herself to set Uuzoo up with a place to stay and come next night, a job as well.
