We here at Podzilla 2000 Inc. would like to apologize on behalf of the nations of Japan and the United States for this episode. Prepare for bizarre carnie sideshows, incoherent editing, hilarious scene transitions, and a whole lot of talk about narcotic persimmons. Oh, and racism. So, so much racism. But hey, Godzilla is back! That's... that's something!
