Red vs. Blue: Relocated is a 2009 comedy machinima miniseries produced by Rooster Teeth Productions and distributed via the Rooster Teeth website. Red vs Blue: Relocated is a four-part miniseries set just after the events of Reconstruction and just prior to Recreation in the Red vs. Blue continuity.[2] In contrast to the previous series, Reconstruction, Relocated is set to have a lighter feel like that of the original. Burnie Burns, the creator of the series, describes Relocated as "less plot, more stupid."[3]
Contents |
Following the events of Reconstruction, the Red and Blue Blood Gulch detachments familiarize themselves with their new bases.
Grif and Simmons discuss the new environment while Sarge tries to upgrade the team's new Warthog. Due to a lack of electricity to use his power tools, his efforts result only in an explosion. Meanwhile, Caboose, the lone blue soldier in the canyon, is seen in the base at the opposite end of the canyon working on an unknown project. Sarge gets fed up with trying to work on the Warthog himself and decides to contact Lopez who still resides in Blood Gulch, but is unable to do so since the long-range radio is disabled. Sarge orders Simmons to investigate the Blue Base as they seem to have power. Sarge then orders Grif to climb to the top of their base to see why it isn't firing the blue bolt of energy into the sky.
Simmons goes to spy on Blue Base, but is stopped by Caboose, who refuses to disclose what he is working on. While Grif reaches the top of Red Base, Simmons informs Sarge of the situation. Caboose watches from afar and then moves stealthily to the crashed ship in the canyon, and apparently finds something when a dim green light comes on. Grif discovers that the blue energy bolt isn't firing because fragments from the crashed ship are clogging the hole. Simmons tells Sarge that removing the fragments could get the power working again, but if the bolt fires, the blast could kill Grif. Sarge fails to see the downside.
After some discussion, Sarge and Simmons decide to have Grif remove the wreckage with a grenade. Sarge offers some of his own for Grif to use, but wittingly pulls the pins in an effort to get rid of him. Grif eventually uses his own grenade to flush the fragments, but he is blown off the tower by the blast. Meanwhile, Caboose is sneaking around the crashed ship, and finds something unseen. With power now on at Red Base, Sarge calls Lopez to come and assist him in his construction projects. Lopez reports that the Reds have won Blood Gulch, having killed Sister. Grif, however, doesn't believe the news of her death, having seen Sister survive worse. He refuses to believe it without first seeing a corpse. Lopez then arrives and, in a matter of seconds, builds a holographic testing room underneath Red Base.
To test the new and improved Warthog, Sarge orders Lopez to spawn a series of targets in the shape of Grif. Meanwhile at Blue Base, an increasingly psychotic-sounding Caboose rejoices that they are 'all here' and that they can now be 'together forever' to what appears to be the Epsilon AI, Sheila, and Tex's body. Back in the holographic room, Grif continually sees a pink object amongst the Grif programs and approaches it. The pink Grif turns out to be Donut who, sounding parched, repeats the word water and claims that they need to help an unidentified person and that 'it's under the sand', much the same way Tucker did during the distress signal in Reconstruction. As Donut passes out, Sarge and Simmons come to investigate and Grif, worried that the information will lead to another lengthy and difficult mission, tells them that Donut only requested water, nothing more.
