In character:
Yes: Ami, Usagi, Rei, Luna
Recap:
We begin with Usagi watching a trailer for a Sailor V anime movie (Did V even give them premission to make an anime about her?) Usagi says she wishes her life was an anime (I love 4th wall jokes!)
We then cut to two animator girls. They talk about how the directer wants one of them to draw Sailor V more sexy. They then run off to the animation studio to work on some more drawings for the Sailor V movie. On the way, one girl drops some of her sketches. Ami is here walking out of a book store, and sees it. Noticing the address she decideds to go return it after cram school.
After Cram School, and while Ami is walking to the studio, a car drives by, and Ami's spider senses start to tingle! Allowing her to see Nephrite in the fast moving car. We then cut to one of the animator girls who is not proud of her own work. Looking at her friend's drawings, she decideds to use a special pencel that she and her friend bought together. Freaky Star Guy shows up and curses the pencil. He then leaves and is confronted by Sailor Mercury. Her gets away, and tells her, that he has his strongest Youma ready for them! The friend returns with some food, and the girl tells her to leave her alone. Ami shows up and returns the sketches.
The next day, Ami is talking to Usagi and Luna. "We can't ignore this if Nephrite was there"....Usagi....you just want autographs and animation cells, but she did say she did want that before what she said about Nephrite. She then contacts Rei who says she is too mature for such things (HA!). After school, they run into Rei waiting for them "We can't ignore this if Nephrite was there!".....Even Luna realized what she said. She turns around and the bag she is holding rips open, revealing a ton of velum. Usagi knows she just wants to get autographs (Wow....even Usagi is more mature than Rei. At least Usagi is open about such things, why Rei trys to hide her immaturity).
Ami: Rei-chan, we're going to be in 9th grade next year.
Rei: So!
Ami: Nothing.
Rei (thinking): Is she trying to pick a fight with me?
If she was Ami would own your sorry *ss! She has water powers while you have fire powers Rei. Also, Usagi's face here is great!
They head to the studio and Usagi and Rei argue over who is as pretty as Sailor V. (Neither of you! Ami is! In fact I say she's prettier!) The girl comes out and even she knows Usagi and Rei just want some animation cells and autographs. Usagi and Rei then use the Metal Cap power up. The director of the movie calls and praises the girl's work, and she says the movie will end with Sailor V being killed.......that can't be forshadowing in anyway this season...nope! Not at all!
Pullox and Castor are then summoned. Ami, Usagi, and Rei transform and have trouble defeating the monsters until they get them to argue, giving the girls the chance to combine their powers and summon Captain Planet! JK! They combine their attacks and destroy Castor and Pullox.
