Andy, you have "grander than reality" expectations about Shepard's romancing practices. It is basically "if it moves, it will be romanced". Jenkins' face will not discourage Shepard.
I know what happens to Trask...he got on an escape pod after beating up that dark Jedi. The escape pod fell in a black hole and popped him out in our Galaxy. Where he joined C-Sec as COMMANDER EFFIN BAILEY!!
Oh man! I'd love to see the total opposite of this episode, like "7 NPC's you totally expected to die for plot reasons, except they... didn't die? because of reasons?"I mean right there we have like half the cast of Dragon Age or nearly every companion character in the Resident Evil series.
1. Wedge Antilles from A New Hope 2. Guy Fleegman from Galaxy Quest (the only one on the bridge who wasn't shot down by the big bad before the time-jump)

I get the feeling "Trash Uggo" wouldn't be this funny if I hadn't JUST been watching the Gangbeasts Livestream, but I've been giggling like an idiot for about 5 minutes now xD
I always found it amusing when you did a new game plus on Mass Effect. All the starting characters have their skill points, but even Jenkins gets them! I would always max out his armour and shields, which made it that much funnier when he walks out and just bites it. "No, Jenkins! But he was level 60!"
"deaths of characters I guarantee you don't care about" How dare you! I loved *looks at smudged writing on hand* unnamed soldier #009 and was HEARTBROKEN that they killed him!
Don't forget the two schmucks from the start of Dragon Age Origins who die during the Joining. What really rubs salt in that wound is in Awakening party member Ohgrim ( who's the dwarfiest dwarf ever) knocks back the poisonous Darkspawn blood like a it was nothing.
The second schmuck wasn't killed by the blood, but for pussing out. And Iilden Cousland could only watch. Sad, because I think he would have been successful.
My ultimate red shirt was my younger brother whenever we would play co-op in games like Halo. "No," I would say, "It's _totally_ safe for you to run on ahead into the depths of 'The Library' while I leisurely make my way along the trail of you cloned corpses." lol
Ironically when I first played a online game of Halo reach, all of the experienced players saw me and assume that I would be the first casualty. The hilarious part is that during the first match, a sniper tried to shoot me but had accidentally headshot his teammate that was about to assassinate me with an energy sword.

@@respectableaf9061 I thought that was a joke. Even if it wasn't, he did still survive the entire game before it. That's more a Spock than a red shirt.
7 characters you'll completely forget about. I honestly don't remember Jenkins, Trask, Gyules, Sam Marcus, etc existence at all. Evett sure, because you can get him killed in a million fun ways and he's a literal redshirt.
Well it probably doesn't help that Lt. Jenkins sounds like he was named after a character from a dungeons and dragons like game that pretty much got killed the same way.
I'm pretty sure Jenkins loyalty mission would be getting him on the mission that kills him, and then subsequently trying to explain to top brass why the hell you chose Jenkins.
Except you didn't. Captain Anderson ordered you to tell Alenko and Jenkins to suit up. Sending a Corporal who was greener than the grass on Eden Prime was Anderson's mess to clean up.
Jenkins was WAY too motto in a way that screamed digital dead man walking second I saw him.. especially with all the talk of all the great "future" endeavors he had to look forward too and thirst for excitement... An if Trask had any number of specific metals in his blade he actually stood a good chance of beating that discount Sith Inquisitor... too bad everything else probably got him though
Erm, no. For all the heroics of Trask, he was not Force-sensitive, not a trained Jedi killer, he stood little chance against Darth Bandon even if his blade could reflect lightsaber. Because, you know, one wave of Bandon's hand, and Trask's pinned to the wall or electrocuted.
"your ship is a rocking, Because the sith have come a knocking, For very important jedi, Bastila Shan." Wow, great rhythm, Jane! I really hope that was intentional.
I recall the entirety of the Happy Trials Caravan in the beginning of Fallout New Vegas Honest Hearts dying almost immediately. I actually liked them. Except Ricky. Screw Ricky.
I love the fact that in the clip where the red shirt gets downed by the vines, McCoy just crosses his arms right after the fact. I'm now imagining him just shaking his head and calling the red shirt an idiot.
Actually Mike, excluding the main characters, the red shirts seem to have a statistically higher percent chance of survival than any other colour shirt... in The Original Series anyway. It is just that many more of them go on away missions, excluding the main cast.
After Halo Jenkins has a special meaning to me. The memes didn't help and didn't improve my view. My red shirt is in the laundry? Ok bring me my brown pants. Speaking of shirts. I like Jane's pullover/shirt.
Fun trivia, House Ulgo & the Endar Spire are both things in the Star Wars the Old Republic MMO with Ulgo being a faction on Alderaan & Endar Spire being the focus of a quest on Taris (you go into the ships wreckage) /nerdflex
Here's a thought, what if every whoever wears a red shirt in a dangerous situation realizes what they're attire heralds for them and thus panics, leading to their deaths and increasing the curse of the red shirt.
I love how Spock doesn't even look up from the tricorder as Everts is getting killed by tentacles, and McCoy just folds his arms like "Oh man, not again....".
Surely the biggest clue that Jenkins wasn't long for this galaxy was the fact they called him Jenkins.
I dunno, Old Man Jenkins has been around forever
Well his middle name was Leroy, so he definitely wasn't going to be around for long.
Mister The Geoff private Jenkins in halo too
L.Jenkins to be specific
I'd say the same for that guy whose first name was Redshirt.
Gears of War:
- Anthony Carmine (Carmine literally means "red")
- Redshirt Gyules (Gules is the term used in heraldry for "red")
- Jan Rojas from Alpha Squad (Rojas is Spanish for "red")

How could you know about Leroy Jenkins and yet get everything wrong about him? Except that he died.
Man, that Skeletor cover of Mad World was awesome!
Robert Kendo in original R.E.2?
He got eaten by zombies literally one minute after he appeared
Ada Wong was basically a spy that was undercover as a redshirt, when you think about it.
That line "I'm itching for some action" has been stuck in my head for the last 10 years
"All around me are familiar faces" HAHA! 😂👍
When he started singing, it brought tears to my eyes it was so beautiful
And thirdly, Commander Jenkins' name...is JENKINS
Like....LEROOOOOOOY JEEEENKIIIINS! :P
I think that was the best rendition of “Mad World” ever recorded. *wipes away single tear*
Trask is considered an international hero in the KotOR community. He was too good for this world.
I come back here occasionally to remember the heroic moments of Trash Uggo RIP
I'm pretty sure Jenkins loyalty mission would be getting him on the mission that kills him, and then subsequently trying to explain to top brass why the hell you chose Jenkins.
There’s literally no reason not to choose Jenkins
"Well, Lt. Williams hadn't joined the squad yet, and everyone else was glued to their seats, so...."
Except you didn't. Captain Anderson ordered you to tell Alenko and Jenkins to suit up. Sending a Corporal who was greener than the grass on Eden Prime was Anderson's mess to clean up.
I just loved that I played it with CC and the auto-generated subtitles had "Darth Bandon" as "Dork Bandhan".
The dude in the first mission of mass effect! I knew he’d be on this as soon you did the opening
The older brother at the beginning of far cry 3... That dude was literally wearing a red shirt and he didn't last too long😂
What about Carmine from gears of war.He's like the gold standard of going to die as soon as the game gets going
Damnit carmine! Dont walk into the giant worm of death!
exactly! Carmine from every gears is in your group, and dies on mission.
would be true if not for the oldest Carmine brother who in true GoW standards kicks ass and survives :P
I love how they did a player poll leading up to the game to determine if Carmine lived or died in 3 haha.
@@zjoee i know, so epic xD don´t really remember, but weren´t it a fairly close call aswell?
Seeing Jane in a Solaire shirt always brings a smile to my face. she should praise the sun every time she wears it on camera
To be fair, not moving may be your best defense against dying in Dark Souls.
“You can’t crush the Covenant WITHOUT inverted look on.”
Fixed that for you. ;)
Jenkins was WAY too motto in a way that screamed digital dead man walking second I saw him.. especially with all the talk of all the great "future" endeavors he had to look forward too and thirst for excitement...
An if Trask had any number of specific metals in his blade he actually stood a good chance of beating that discount Sith Inquisitor... too bad everything else probably got him though
Erm, no. For all the heroics of Trask, he was not Force-sensitive, not a trained Jedi killer, he stood little chance against Darth Bandon even if his blade could reflect lightsaber. Because, you know, one wave of Bandon's hand, and Trask's pinned to the wall or electrocuted.
"your ship is a rocking,
Because the sith have come a knocking,
For very important jedi,
Bastila Shan."
Wow, great rhythm, Jane! I really hope that was intentional.
I recall the entirety of the Happy Trials Caravan in the beginning of Fallout New Vegas Honest Hearts dying almost immediately. I actually liked them. Except Ricky. Screw Ricky.
Yeah, I purposely didn't dismiss him for that very reason
I must've reloaded the beginning like 20 times before I realized there was no saving them. They'd explode from a grazing leg shot. So sad.
I love the fact that in the clip where the red shirt gets downed by the vines, McCoy just crosses his arms right after the fact. I'm now imagining him just shaking his head and calling the red shirt an idiot.
They should have had a "guest presenter introduce each segment before being killed and the rest being explained by a regular.
Ag3nt0fCha0s What a missed opportunity... XD
Actually Mike, excluding the main characters, the red shirts seem to have a statistically higher percent chance of survival than any other colour shirt... in The Original Series anyway.
It is just that many more of them go on away missions, excluding the main cast.
How dare you imply that I didnt care about Trask's death.
...over a decade later and I still think about what could have been 😭
Trask was a fucking hero. Dude went at a Dark Jedi with a double bladed light saber just to save a guy he literally just met
7 billion people that would melt from Jane's smile. Praise the sun!
The smile isn't necessary.
@@krebwardTrueee.
That funereal rendition of "Mad World" brought me to tears. Which tears, not sure, but laughter comes from grieving, right? XD
Of Course Jenkins was Doomed! the "L" on his name Stands for LEROY! LEROY FRIGGIN JENKINS!
"You can't crush the covenant with inverted look on.."
*I BEG YOUR PARDON?*
After Halo Jenkins has a special meaning to me. The memes didn't help and didn't improve my view.
My red shirt is in the laundry? Ok bring me my brown pants.
Speaking of shirts. I like Jane's pullover/shirt.
Andre Kröger praise the sun
@@Robbnlinzi been scrolling for a while looking for someone to comment on that. good on you, fellow sunbro
That Mad World cover was glorious. Brought a tear to my eye, it did.
What about Rell Julian from Bulletstorm?
Don't remember him? I barely did. He died too early, that's why!
Fun trivia, House Ulgo & the Endar Spire are both things in the Star Wars the Old Republic MMO with Ulgo being a faction on Alderaan & Endar Spire being the focus of a quest on Taris (you go into the ships wreckage) /nerdflex
Here's a thought, what if every whoever wears a red shirt in a dangerous situation realizes what they're attire heralds for them and thus panics, leading to their deaths and increasing the curse of the red shirt.
John Scalzi’s Redshirts is a novel that explores this.
The problem is TNG elevated red shirts to COMMAND. So you're never sure if you're essential cast or doomed to die.
I love how Spock doesn't even look up from the tricorder as Everts is getting killed by tentacles, and McCoy just folds his arms like "Oh man, not again....".
You cant do expendble gears of war npc's without like EVERY CARMINE EVER
Forgetting Jenkins? Inconceivable! He lives on in our hearts forever
