The planet of "Trivia." That's simplistically brilliant. Ha ha! The landscape/entrance looks straight out of Sid & Marty Krofft. Specifically, "Land Of The Lost" and the "Far-Out Space Nuts." EMPEROR TRITAN! I loved this dude! I'm sorry we didn't have more time/episodes with him. He was a DOOZY! And proof positive that words can hurt! Like in deadly green laser beam style! 😮 "Better safe than sorry," he says. Then puts his leg up and relaxes! He's as stubborn as a mule! 😂 But that was a GREAT plan Alex had. You know, "speaking the same language." Shows that they'd have respect for Tritan and get him to empathize with their plight! LOVE THAT DRAMATIC PAUSE between "A ruler must have a heart of gold," and "A ruler should let his head rule his heart." Tritan had to think about a good response for a sec, showing that the boys were breaking down his barriers. Especially with that smart follow-up, "An exception to every rule." Three rule/ruler idioms in a row! (Though it started to look like they were barking up the wrong tree!) MEANWHILE... DUNEEDON'S MONOLOGUING! In true super-villain style! And just like Doctor Doom or Brainiac, of COURSE he has a spare of himself around in case he needs to fool his enemies. 😎 And apparently, Dunny's a fashion plate: "Hmm, I think I'll paint my duplicate head gold instead of silver. After all, gold is regal, the colour of wealth...royalty. The colour of POWER. And it just looks so lovely, doesn't it? 😂 And Dunny's so arrogant, he's even telling US his duplicitous plan, knowing there's nothing we the audience can do to stop it! Oh, if only we'd had some way to warn the kids.Alas, WE had no access to TW. I'm surprised they never mentioned the term "idioms" in here. I get "Tritan"/"trite sayings," but that sounds too unsophisticated a term for me. I thought it was a good opportunity for him, when Alex asked him why he says those phrases, for him to expound on it...maybe even break into song like most other guests have done. Instead, he shrugs and says, "Meh. 'Cause I feel like it." Oh, well. Short and sweet, I guess! "Guess [Dunny's} not gonna say goodbye." If that had REALLY been Duneedon, he indeed would have said goodbye...with a threat and a warning that he'd return to destroy them all! Hey! They switched! Fake Dunny is silver and real Dunny is gold! Guess I didn't notice that as a kid, because, as Emperor Tritan would say, the cliffhanger LEFT ME ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT!!!!!

They should have gone with "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." They could have conspired with that emporer guy to end/defeat Duneedon.

Thus dooming the rest of the population of Trialviron to die. They needed Duneedon's power to transport the population.

Some of those idioms I haven't heard before or it has been a long time since I've heard them, don't know if they are not used as much now as they were in the 80's or if it's because we don't use them as much in America.

If their first mistake is their final one, then it's not really their first mistake, it's their only one. Oh Duneedon. I've feared you for 35 years. For nothing. You fool! Ha. Ha ha. Ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
