Welcome to the Mid-Episode Song Showdown!
Hello to everyone! I am the same person who runs @pruechaosbracket although I don't feel ready to do an intro-post yet.
This is the Mid-Episode Song Showdown! Because somehow they are some of the best songs ever, so of course I had to make a Tumblr Poll Contest (tm) about them!
Now then, The Rules!
Despite the name, songs from games also count.
Musicals on the other hand, do not count because they're all about the music.
The song has to have lyrics.
Intros, Outros, or any song that appears in every episode does not count.
Ending songs only count if they also appear before hand.
The song has to originate from its series.
Parody songs also count as long as they follow the previous rules.
You can submit as many songs as you want, just please don't spam the same song over and over again
Propaganda is encouraged, go crazy with it but don't harass others (also you can put it in though my asks/post submissions)
Teams will not be here this time around, so if two songs are tied they will be redone.
With that out of the way, I'm am going to leave the submissions up until February, I'll see you afterwards, and have fun!
(Also here's the obligatory visibility mentions of other polls and gimmick blog I like, feel free to ignore them because I know it's probably annoying. @best-kirby-character-tournament @cringefaillosersummit @weird-song-bracket @wlw-webcomic-bracket @ultimate-good-dog @shinypokemonshowdown @cantheykillmacbeth @foundfamilyadoptionagency @tournamentdirectory @tournament-announcer)

Aight before we go into the third round and I have a very real fear the best episode (in my opinion) has a good chance of going out next round, it's time for some propaganda
✨️Vote for SOS Part 2✨️
This episode is jam packed full of action, emotion, angst, beautiful shots, and an awesome cliffhanger
Ok first of all let's start with the CHASE
Guys GUYS okay the way Gordon goes off to search for Braman and we know that the Hood also knows about Braman and we're just waiting for him and the chaos crew to show up
The way we all panic with Gordon when they do show up (and hello that shot of the chaos cruiser!) and Gordon's slick manoeuvre to get away and his heavy breathing whilst he's hiding. Like we're now like ok this is real this is more than just a normal encounter with the hood. Gordon is actually terrified
But he knows the risk of what's going to happen is worth it because although he has no idea where or who Braman's transmission is coming from, he knows something is UP and he is willing to risk his life for a robot (something he has previously shown distrust in- see chaos part 1 & 2- so this just further shows the risk he is willing to take)
So he goes for Braman anyway and we think oh maybe he might make it out of there and then BOOM Braman starts singing and no surprise really because it was never going to be that easy.
Now the chase is on which is a classic in Thunderbirds. Chases always happen. And we're thinking that Gordon might get away. Barely. But he'll get away.
And this seems true when he dodges their missiles but then. THE DAUNTING LOOK on Gordon's face when he realises they were never actually aiming for Four, but were actually aiming for the wall. And they hit it. And Gordon knows he can't get away and it's gonna hit him, so all he can do is put on his helmet to minimise the damage.
And then there's nothing.
It's quiet. The only thing we hear is Gordon struggling to activate his emergency call, and John's response. John who doesn't seem to be too worried at first, but then when his baby brother doesn't respond he goes into full blown Panic
And then we get the best sequence in the whole god damn show. Thunderbird Two launches with no countdown. No words are said. Virgil and Scott exchange a look and us viewers just KNOW what they are saying to each other.
AND THE MUSIC GUYS THE MUSIC THAT PLAYS WHEN THEYRE ALL RUSHING TO THE SCENE
And let's also talk about THIS moment
This shot. My favourite shot. Fuse lit up, like he is Gordon's saviour. Like he is going to rescue him. The way this shot lingers for a few seconds in just quiet
Then we see Fuse's conflicting emotions when he sees the crumpled tb4. When for a moment you think he's going to save Gordon instead of Braman. When the side of him controlled by the Hood wins out (God I would love to have seen a chaos crew backstory as to how they started working for the man) and when he takes Braman back to the ship, he shows very real worry about Gordon's wellbeing. And we see how little the Hood actually cares about the Tracys.
Then of course we get the rescue (Penelope rescuing Gordon!!) Then the other chase with Kayo vs the hood and chaos crew. And Brains' cryptic message to forget them and finish what Gordon started and rescue Braman
Later we get the soft scene of all the fam in the hospital and a broken (but thankfully alive <3<3) Gordon, and a cute pen&ink moment.
And then we end with the cliffhanger! Jeff is alive!! And this sets up the rest of the season to go and rescue their dad!
Asgdsfs I just love this episode so much guys
Anyway I hope this reminds you all why SOS part 2 is the best episode and you are all persuaded to vote for it in the coming rounds. If anyone else needs convincing then obligatory cat propaganda post

Tigers Eye
Heylin’s Fall
Part 2
Fun Fact-Jack was released earlier that month from his parole at Madame Changelings Reformatorium for good behavior >:)
Anyway, who do you think Jack saw?
I’ll give you a hint-they’re the Heylin-affiliated antagonists of this “episode”
See you next week!
(Special thanks to @harpywitharobot for the motivation it took to complete all the sketches for this “episode”)
