I rarely say this about the show, but I could have used some more exposition here. Does this episode take place years after the last one? I guess that's the implication, but there's little real explanatory connection between this episode and the last one.

Instead, we've turned Enzo into a generic action hero and AndrAIa into a generic sexy female sidekick, and a blatant Mars Attacks rip off. It's a cute little story with the wandering warrior stopping to help the small town. (Very wild western), but all the stuff with Enzo getting an "Enzo" of his own in the guise of Backup was really on the nose, the show wasn't shy about pointing this out. It's a fine idea, but the execution was pretty weak. I did like the idea of Enzo putting up a front to convince local Binomes to become a team and fight for themselves, and by the same token that this was an old trick for him and AndrAIa at this point, but overall it was pretty weak stuff.
