Announcer: HOW TO SPEAK NERV DOUBLE-TALK.
(Cut to scene of Eva unit-01 going berserk, and beating the tar out of

Announcer: SCUFFLE.
(Cut to a series of scenes of Gendo Ikari, the first of him standing
with his hands

Announcer: BASTARD.
( Cut to scene of Misato and Pen-pen knocking back a can of beer each.

zooms in to show mountain of cans behind them.)

can the words
'YEBISU' can be read.)
Announcer: YEBISU. NERV DOUBLE-TALK FOR BEER.

(Voice in background, is faint but still loud enough to be heard): Kaji,

THERE!? Come OUT here RIGHT now!!
