#major blast

As Roddy reveals his and Hiro’s newest training program for the team, a mysterious villain appears and targets Fred.

Been going through the series lately and like I said before, I like to pause to see what the animators put into the wording/backgrounds. ^_^ These news articles are either just from the 70s or are spread throughout a couple decades.

1. Mentions Baron von Steamer attacking Torii Gate Bridge.

2. Shows the Shimamoto statue at SFAI (I think mentioning the rivalry week statue grab) as well as SFIT hiring the youngest dean of students ever (possibly talking about Granville if the article’s not from the 70s, either that or she’s older than we thought o_o).

3. Mentions Krei’s dad winning the “Mayor for a Day” bid that we see Fred do in Season 3.

4. Wow. Truly shocking that cupcakes are just smaller cakes. XD

5&6. Looks like Orso Knox purchased the Noodle Burger Factory that we’ve seen the team visit a couple times when it was just starting out. Don’t know if he still owns it, but it’s just very interesting to see him mentioned in something not monster related; it might also have helped keep him wealthy beyond his trust fund. O_O

But like...what if, though? Now that I’m thinking about it, we don’t actually know Mrs. Frederickson’s first name, right?

We know that she had to give him some inspiration to fight crime as Major Blast.  Wonder if she ever had to fill in for him in the actual role?

I have a strong feeling the villain that killed Chief Cruz’s father is Major Blast

I mean, look at the details in his gloves (who by the way remind me of Hiro’s)

I can definitely see Boss Awesome talk about Cruz’s father in the next episode

Okay, welcome back to CDTS2′s News Room where CDTS2 gets information later than everyone else thus making them late on the news.

Another day, another new episode, another Fred-In-Danger episode. This week, a villain called Major Blast comes into the surface and targets Fred. Will BH6 save Fred from them and reveal who's behind it? Let's Blast on!

Cold opening; It is another save from BH6, this time they (Hiro, Baymax, and Fred) are saving Bluff Dunder from Helicopter malfunction. But when Fred suggest to celebrate with Noodle Burger victory treat, a stranger flies to Fred, and starts blasting flame towards him. He tries to avoid it, but no work. Getting cornered, this stranger prepares to diminish Fred "You aren't a worthy opponent yet" (let's remember this quote because it will be handy), until Hiro and Baymax reach out Fred and save him from this stranger. This stranger flees away, but not before demanding Fred to have another fight, this time, he will be alone, and Hiro and Fred wonder who were they.

BH6 figures out that the stranger is "Major Blast", they used to be Boss Awesome's villain, and they are now targeting Fred. Hiro orders Fred to train with Gogo while the rest to figure out who's behind Major Blast. Hiro then shows other the new feature of the lair, Sim-Max, a simulation room so Fred can practice.

Tbf, this feature is really cool, they have ultra realistic hologram with backgrounds and villains, so they can practice and learn how to beat villains as accurate as in real life. Look How far BH6 has become. (Except the part that once you failed the simulation, Roddy will mock you straight away on his hologram version)

Gogo finds the problem that Fred is really easy to be distracted, and she demands him to stay focus, but Fred keeps it going, even daydreaming about how their practice would be (Rocky's aesthetic sounds fun). They finally start the simulation, with Momakase, but ofc Fred gets distracted again, and he fails the simulation test. "Distraction bad. Focus good" that's what she said.

I wish their interaction between Gogo and Fred could be more, since, I find the interaction between Fred and Gogo interesting, since they are opposite to each other, Fred likes to get distracted and chilling, and fun stuffs, with his witty and quirky, while gogo is no Bs person, likes to focus, always get serious when troubles come, and upset when someone ruining the mood of her. I also remembered about Jamie Chung's interview for the movie back then, that Gogo had a secret crush on Fred, which is... Interesting, and the series portray about their interaction more, and seems like they have a good chemistry for each other... I admit I ship them tho but yeah, I wish they have more interaction like this, but somehow they cut it pretty short and we have to see Fred practices alone

Meanwhile, the rests find the further informations about Major Blast. Baymax (and Basemax) however, ruin the focus by 'competing' to give the infos about Major Blast. Who would have known that Robots literally competing each other about something.

First practice is done, and they about to go home, until Major Blast interrupts Fred's path and attacks Fred, Fred tries to resist, with Gogo help, but he is still failed, and Major Blast says the same words before they flee away, again.

Fred becomes paranoid, and starts to doubt if he is good enough to be a superhero. 'Alfred' tries to cheer him up, but warn him to be focus about it.

Now to think about it, after what The butler said, and the quote "You aren't a worthy opponent", the person behind Major Blast is coned into the the person who is close to Fred and instead of someone who has a vengeance against Boss Awesome or Fred, they want to teach Fred a lesson. Now that the butler said that, it could be really him, or it could be boss Awesome's robot practice, or Richardson.

Fred practices again, now with mini-Max, but out of nowhere, Major Blast comes again, and interrupt his practice. Fred gets defeated again, but..... His butler saves him, using Fred original BH6 costume, to drag him out from Major Blast. Major Blast flees away again, and says the same quote again (yep).. Fred becomes more terrified.

Also forgot to mention that Boss Awesome, or Mr. Frederickson appears again as cameo, I can tell that he now has new va, I think. His sounds is similar to Stan Lee, so he is as if Stan Lee is alive, but I'll check the credit to see the new va

Fred determines to defeat them for good, but his distraction(s) takes the toll out of him, and he is defeated (again) by simulated Mr. Sparkles (yeah......). Roddy Blair comes in and he notices Fred. Fred asks to Blair how Boss Awesome comes to defeat Major Blast and how Major Blast's weaknesses are, Blair says that While Major Blast don't have weakness, Boss Awesome used his own weakness to defeat Major Blast. Fred then has the idea to use his distraction to defeat Major Blast.... Which is not what Blair meant, but we'll, he keeps going up with his idea, and.... Well, he tried

Blair also mentions to the rests (since the rests of the crew still couldn't figure it out who's behind Major Blast) that there was a secret compartment on Boss Awesome's lair, and Hiro and the gangs (except Gogo and Fred) visit his lair once again, and plan to use Baymax's vision to scan the secret compartment, but, they notice that Baymax is still on the lair, discussing with Basemax about the protocol of who's speaking first and stuff.

As Fred practicing and failing, Major Blast comes and interrupts his another practice. (Huh, they can be a party pooper irl ofc) Gogo sees this and tries to help Fred, but Major Blast manages to lock her out from the Sim-Max, and now Fred fights alone, against Major Blast. In the other side, The rests of BH6 figure out who Major Blast is.

Fred, now, fighting alone, tries to use his weakness to defeat Major Blast, including using his ultra lighting feature to blind Major Blast, but ofc, with their advance tech, they manage to resist and Fred gets cornered again, Major Blast says something as they prepare to blast him, but Fred distract him to mention their forehead, and he escapes. Major Blast tries to attack Fred, and they gets it, well, Sim-Fred, and the real Fred manages to climb to their back and cut the pipewire, which creates malfunction of their suit. Finally Major Blast is defeated, Fred the winner, and everyone is happy.

Fred admit that he uses Gogo and Blair advice to defeat Major Blast, which is not what they meant. Fred finally reveals who's behind Major Blast, and it is......

Fred's mom (surprising, right, eh?)

Everyone's confused about the 'plot twist' and Fred's mom owes to tell: she was afraid about Boss Awesome's safety, and she wanted to keep Boss Awesome awesome, so she created her undefeatable 'villain' persona, Major Blast. When she was defeated, she revealed herself to Boss Awesome, and she then, retired, well until now. The reason of why she relive her alter ego again is because she wants Fred about superhero thingy, especially since the situation becomes uncertain, and the villains are getting stronger, to Hiro notice that she knew about BH6's identity all along. Well that's a plot twist I could t honestly expect, and looks like none of our theory about Major Blast were right

Well looks like superhero thingy runs thought their family, Mr. Frederickson is Boss Awesome, Mrs. Frederickson helped Boss Awesome kept his awesomeness, by becoming a 'villain', and Fred is part of BH6. Kick-Ass Family, amirite?

Fred is really happy about that, and Gogo mentions the weird parenting over there. At the end of the day, Fred is happy that he has a kick-assing mom, while Mr. Frederickson watching by far from his another vacation.

Conclusion:
