“Fire Ball”
Episode: #8
Namesake: Deep Purple album and song
Priss is her trailer, winding down after a concert. She is being interviewed by a Music TV show and is being deliberately vague in her answers to their questions, almost as if she was bored. Afterward, she is riding her bike to Nigel’s, only to leave after finding Macky to be there.
She passes Leon and Daley on the highway, giving them some fun before allowing them to catch her. Daley makes a few jabs at Leon as the man walks away to talk with Priss. Leon tries to get Priss to tell him why she doesn’t like the ADP, only to have her snap at him and ride off.
At Sylia’s, Macky is late coming to her table. Sylia compliments him on the clothes that she had picked out for him and teases him about a non-existent oil smudge on his face. She knows that he had been spending time with Nigel and asks about him. Macky begins to tell her about the moto-slave for Priss and the interaction between Priss and Nigel, which angers Sylia.
Macky says that he had been worried about himself changing, when in fact it was Sylia who had changed. Macky then tells her that he has agreed to move in with Nigel.
Nene is having a sleepover and invited both Priss and Linna. Upon entering Nene’s apartment, Linna immediately thinks that she had been burglarized because the place is such a mess. Priss didn’t want to come, and the two girls talk about her.
In the middle of the night, Nene and Linna are called out to deal with a rogue boomer on the Gulf Freeway — Priss is performing and can’t be reached. The AD Police can’t catch the boomer and the Knight Sabers can barely keep up with it, despite the fact that it tried to run them off of the road several times.
Macky was finally able to reach Priss, telling her to come to Nigel’s to get the moto-slave. Sylia peels off from the chase to collect Priss, leaving Nene and Linna to continue to try to catch the boomer.
When Sylia returns, Priss launches from the mobile pit on a souped-up motorcycle. As she races to catch up, Nigel and Macky are feeding her instructions. As Priss engages the boomer, it is much like a jousting match as she goes to ram it head on, destroying the core.
Afterward, the girls are sitting in an empty Hot Legs, where Priss gives them a private concert.
