'''Mission Beta''' is the two hundred thirty-fifth video in the lonelygirl15 [[List of Lonelygirl15 videos|video series]].

==Transcript==
'''Jonas:''' Okay, we're here for uh, Spencer's next phase of training. He brought us out here. He's training Daniel, let's take a look.

(''Camera pans to Daniel, who is in a "downward-dog" yoga position, and Spencer, who is standing nearby.'')

'''Daniel:''' How's this?

'''Spencer:''' Back straigher.

'''Daniel:''' How am I doing?

'''Jonas:''' Aw, don't worry about it, buddy.

'''Spencer:''' Straighten your back. No, it's wiki-yoga, Daniel, so everyone online can contribute tips to help get you in better form!

'''Jonas:''' You need better form.

'''Spencer:''' Yeah. Our friend Daniel is heavily engaged in the "downward-dog" position of yoga. I told him it's ''crucial'' to master this move, especially with his role in our mission to obtain the blood sample. Now, after this, he'll engage in a series of exercises used to challenge a man's serpentine coordination.

(''Musical montage of Spencer and Daniel doing yoga.'')

'''Daniel:''' (''Bent oddly, crying in pain.'') Oh ho ho ho, baby.

'''Spencer:''' Nice. Nice!

'''Daniel:''' Ohmygod. Ohmygod.

'''Spencer:''' Nice! Hahahaha!

'''Daniel:''' Ohmygod.

(''Cuts to Spencer and Jonas holding up a limbo stick.'')

'''Jonas:''' If you get this one, Daniel, I think you might be ready for the '08 Olympics.

(''Daniel limbos under the stick.'')

'''Daniel:''' Oooh yeah!

'''Jonas:''' Gold medal!

'''Daniel:''' That's a gold.

'''Spencer:''' I taught him that form.

(''Cuts to Daniel, blindfolded, walking in a maze-like path of tape.'')

'''Spencer:''' So what's up with you and that Sarah girl? (''Daniel stops.'') Keep going! You still like her?

'''Daniel:''' No.

'''Spencer:''' But she's cute.

'''Daniel:''' Dude!!

'''Spencer:''' Relax! I'm training you to free your mind from outside distractions! Geez.

(''Daniel continues walking on the maze. When he finishes, Spencer begins jumping up and down victoriously. Daniel pulls off his blindfold and high fives Jonas.'')

'''Spencer:''' I've created a Gauntlet of sorts. This is a culmination of everything I've taught Daniel today, and now he's going to go through it.

'''Jonas:''' Hey, Gil. Don't you think we should have gunfire that should be shooting over his head or something? (''Spencer glares at the camera.'') That could make it more real.

'''Daniel:''' What?!

'''Spencer:''' No, no.

'''Jonas:''' I'm just saying.

'''Spencer:''' No. Ready, Daniel?

'''Text:''' The Gauntlet © Spencer Gilman

'''Spencer:''' On your mark, get set...

'''Daniel:''' Alright.

'''Spencer:''' Go!

(''Daniel heads forward through the obsticle course, blindfolded.'')

'''Spencer:''' Straight. Right! (''Daniel heads right and bends backwards beneath a limbo bar which Spencer has held out for him.'') Left! (''Daniel turns left.'')

'''Jonas:''' He's all over the tape.

'''Spencer:''' What?

'''Jonas:''' I just said, he was on the tape right there.

'''Spencer:''' He looked fine to me. Alright, stop! There is a bar four feet high, a rope one foot high, how do you get through it?

'''Jonas:''' Use your yoga sense, Daniel. Use your yoga sense.

(''Daniel climbs over the rope, but under the bar.'')

'''Spencer:''' No, if you're going to be joking I can't deal with this. (''Daniel suceeds in his task.'') Good! Good downward dog!! Now, cobra! Underneath the rope!

(''Daniel crawls under the rope.'')

'''Spencer:''' You're doing so well! One more task! Around. Step back one foot, one-and-a-half feet behind you, one foot off the ground. There's a rope! Backwards plough into the square! (''Daniel does so.'') Yes! You did it!! Congratulations.

(''He hands Daniel a trophy.'')

'''Spencer:''' Well earned, Danielbeast.

(''Daniel looks at the trophy and notices the female figure perched atop it.'')

'''Daniel:''' Is that a girl?

'''Spencer:''' Er, it might be.

'''Jonas:''' She looks cute though. And she's golden.

==Notes==
*The {{wikipedia|Adho_Mukha_Svanasana|downward dog}} is a popular yoga position. [[Sarah]] also [[Entertaining Myself|enjoys yoga]].
*[[Helicopter|Helicopters]] can be heard near the end.
*Around 2:10 [[Jonas]] calls [[Spencer]] by a new nick-name: "Gills."
*[[Sarah]] is missing from this video, but is mentioned by name. [[Taylor]] is missing as well, but not mentioned.

man, that downward-facing dog position can be a total pain!! (DANG they casted well for Spencer!! I mean, I know he's a Neutrogena employee, but did he do acting classes in college or sumthin??)*comment edited because one should watch a video to the end before making assumptions!! :-p sry* --[[user:Nieriel.Manwathiel|Nieriel.Manwathiel]]
:Actually, from what I gathered from [[Maxwell Glick]]'s site, he IS an actor, not a [[Neutrogena]] employee. --[[User:Zoey|Zoey]] 23:17, 18 July 2007 (CDT)
::that's weird; i thought they were gonna get an actual Neutrogena employee, not someone pretending to be... huh... --[[user:Nieriel.Manwathiel|Nieriel.Manwathiel]]

::It's very hard for me to see Spence as someone training them to do something major as saving Bree . . . I mean, aren't they planning to do something that'll hopefully put [[The Human Ransom]] in the dust?? If that's the case, Spence is our new Tachyon?? Come on!! I like the guy, very funny, but I just can't buy him as a personal trainer. Not yet, anyways. And at least Jonas & Daniel seem to agree with me with their facial expressions (especially Jonas's asking Spence if he was serious with the knives thing) --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 23:16, 18 July 2007 (CDT)

Danielbeast is his account name. So Spence would know. And others might call him that.--[[User:72.240.18.239|72.240.18.239]] 23:23, 18 July 2007 (CDT)

This makes me wonder if maybe Spencer is gonna have them go undercover in classes (like, looks like teaching a lot of yoga and new-agey stuff, so perhaps he's having them practice to up their credibility undercover.) man, that downward-facing dog position can be a total pain!! (DANG they casted well for Spencer!! I mean, I know he's a Neutrogena employee, but did he do acting classes in college or sumthin??) --[[user:Nieriel.Manwathiel|Nieriel.Manwathiel]]

'''Mission Alpha''' is the two hundred thirty-fourth video in the lonelygirl15 [[List of Lonelygirl15 videos|video series]].

==Transcript==
(''Camera watches Spencer through a car window as he puts on a hat.'')

'''Taylor:''' Oh no, he's bringing out the hat.

(''Cuts to Taylor's face.'')

'''Taylor:''' This should be good.

(''Camera pans to Spencer outside of the car. He shows off his muscles.'')

'''Taylor:''' Very threatening. Good job, Spencer.

'''Jonas:''' We ready to go?

(''Spencer runs to the car.'')

'''Jonas:''' You look ready to go.

'''Spencer:''' Alright.

(''Musical montage showing off a rocky landscape.'')

'''Taylor:''' What are we doing here, Mr. Scientist?

'''Spencer:''' Hm, well. I'm here, teaching Jonas how to rock climb for Mission Alpha!

'''Taylor:''' Care to expand on that?

'''Spencer:''' I would, but I'd have to kill you. (''Giggles.'')

'''Jonas:''' Uh, so um, I'm done stretching. (''quietly'') I'm finished.

'''Spencer:''' Jonas is in the beginning of his workout, and if he thinks this is going to be a cake-walk, he is surely mistaken. (''To Jonas'') Ready to kick it up a notch, Grasshopper?

'''Jonas:''' Grass... what?

'''Spencer:''' It's go time!

(''Musical montage of Jonas and Spencer rock climbing.'')

'''Text:''' The Knife Plunge © Spencer Gilman

(''Musical montage of Spencer trying to wedge a knife into a crevice in the rocks, and Jonas trying to talk him out of it.'')

'''Jonas:''' It's impossible! Look, are you out of your mind? (''Takes the knives from Spencer.'')

'''Spencer:''' It's a very effective exercise! It's the equivalent of a peg board!

'''Jonas:''' (''Incredulously'') Peg... first of all, first of all, there's nothing to stab into! This is rock! Okay, and second of all, even if this did work, I... there's no way I'd be able to pull myself up with these things, man!

'''Spencer:''' Look, what I'm asking you to do is a very simple exercise that works the {{wikipedia|brachialis}}, the posterior {{wikipedia|Deltoid_muscle|deltoid}}, I... I... it's not that complicated!

'''Jonas:''' Hey Spence, can I ask you something, buddy? Have you ever rock climbed before? Or you know like, um, exercised or anything?

'''Spencer:''' I actually can't because I have a condition called {{wikipedia|nociception}}, which can be exacerbated by a build-up of {{wikipedia|lactic_acid|lactic acid}}. Especially when it's situated in my {{wikipedia|teres_minor|teres minor}} and lower {{wikipedia|trapezius}}.

'''Jonas:''' Okay.

(''Cuts to Jonas and Spencer standing on another set of rocks. Spencer mimes a kangaroo pose to Jonas.'')

'''Text:''' The Kangaroo Hop © Spencer Gilman

(''Jonas hops across the rocks. Spencer shakes his head and remakes the kangaroo pose.'')

'''Spencer:''' ...Kangaroo pose!

'''Jonas:''' I did the kangaroo pose!

'''Spencer:''' No! You did it for one jump! You have to do it the whole time!

(''Spencer hops across the rocks in the kangaroo pose. Jonas looks at the camera incredulously, but high fives Spencer when he's done.'')

'''Text:''' The Throw And © Spencer Gilman

(''Spencer mimes showing Jonas how to get rope around a branch on a tree. Jonas climbs up the tree and puts the rope around the branch, grinning. Spencer looks upset. Jonas then stands on the ground and attempts to throw the rope up properly. He gets it up, and he and Spencer high-five again.'')

'''Text:''' Qi Time © Spencer Gilman

'''Spencer:''' Alright, this one is about centering your {{wikipedia|qi}}. Now, we're gonna do it like this! Ready? (''Spencer stands with his arms outstretched and one leg balanced on the other knee.'')

'''Jonas:''' I got it... I got it. It's like The Karate Kid.

'''Spencer:''' No, NO! (''Jonas mimes motions from The Karate Kid.'') No, no, no, no, no! Not The Karate Kid! I need your right foot to be touching your left knee, like this. (''Demonstrates.'')

'''Jonas:''' I think I'm gonna skip out on this one, alright? (''Walks away.'')

'''Spencer:''' No! Come on, you've got to take this more seriously! Come on! You'll be thankin' me later!

'''Jonas:''' Alright, show me one more time?

(''Spencer demonstrates. Jonas does the same.'')

'''Spencer:''' Feel it! Feel the energy! (''ethereal music'')

(''They both laugh. Spencer goes to high five Jonas, who walks away.'')

'''Spencer:''' Aww!

(''Jonas comes back and high-fives Spencer.'')

'''Jonas:''' No, I'm kidding, man.

'''Spencer:''' (''To camera'') Mission Alpha is complete! Jonas is primed and ready! Good job, Grasshopper!

(''Spencer hands Jonas a trophy. Taylor giggles.'')

'''Taylor:''' Um, Jonas. How do you feel after receiving such a prestigous award?

'''Jonas:''' I wish [[Jonas's parents|my parents]] were alive to see this.

'''Taylor:''' Aww.

'''Jonas:''' You get this at a garage sale? Oh, anyways, turn that thing off. (''He knocks the camera to the side.'')

==Notes==
*Spencer's hat is similar to the one worn by [[Bree]] in [[The Danielbeast]].
*Taylor's referral to Spencer as "Mr. Scientist" is possibly a reference to when [[Sarah]] called [[Daniel]] "[[Mr. Park Ranger]]."
*This is the second time Jonas wields a potentially lethal weapon (the first was a gun in [[The Perfect Beach]]), but the atmosphere in this case is far more amicable.
*{{wikipedia|The_Karate_Kid|The Karate Kid}} is a [[pop culture references#References to Movies|martial-arts movie]] about an "underdog."
*When Spencer says "Kick it up a notch!" he is [[pop culture references#References to Television|mimicking]] the catchphrase of popular TV chef, {{wikipedia|Emeril_Lagasse|Emeril Lagasse}}.
*This video contains another reference to [[Jonas's parents]], possibly setting them up for a major plot line.
*At the time of posting, this video was the second longest lg15 video to date, surpassed only by [[Uncle Dan]].

'''Spencer:''' Hey, I would normally never do this at work, but I have all these thoughts running through my head and I just saw my boss go on his lunch break. I mean, what's happened in the past week alone! [[Daniel]] and [[Sarah]] dropped a [[All Wet|letter]] from my [[Isaac Gilman|dad]] into some beach water, smearing a part of that letter which reveals a formula to save [[Bree]]. I met [[Jonas]], [[Taylor]], [[Sarah]], and [[Daniel]] at my [[Neutrogena office|office]], on my way [[Hope He's Not Mad|to lunch]]. Nice surprise guys, almost got fired. Just kidding. Then, I get involved in this whole thing by [[The Bree Solution|trying to figure out this letter]] with [[Taylor]], my new protégé, little sister, overall pal of mine. We bonded over [[product placement#Triscuit_Crackers|cheese and crackers]]. Just like old times... Anyway, I then tell her that just because Bree is Trait: Negative, that has nothing to do with the [[purity bond]]. That's just some [[Hymn of One]] [[four-letter words|B.S.]] used to control the minds of these young girls. Then we ask the fans to help us decipher the letter and, (''claps hands'') ta-da! We discover that we need to create a serum using the blood from one of these girls. Daniel goes off on his woodward [[Deep Throat]] meeting, and we discover that Bree is under lock-and-key because there is going to be a Hymn of One [[the Ceremony (ritual)|Ceremony]] in one month! One month... one month! You know what that means, don't you? It means that we have a mission, and we choose to accept it!

(''The words "Mission Accepted" appear on screen, which are covered by the words "Top Secret" in red.'')

'''Spencer:''' Our mission is top secret, so all I can reveal to you is that we have a [[TCC|mole]] from the inside. Which means we ''know'' where to get these blood samples to save Bree. God, I can't believe I'm doing this. I feel like... I feel like Edward Bond in [http://www.amazon.com/Dark-World-Henry-Kuttner/dp/B000IVVLTK Dark World], you know? I've just penetrated an alternate world, a semi-factual world very similar to my own. I wonder if I'll meet a doppelgänger Spencer. Holy sh...

(''Musical montage in which Spencer plays with a {{wikipedia|lightsaber}}.'')

'''Spencer:''' (''To a person off camera.'') I'm just recording some notes for my uh, project. (''Nods'')

(''Musical montage in which Spencer performs random karate moves and plays with a toy dinosaur.'')

==Notes==
*Spencer's lightsaber was likely an expensive replica (as opposed to a special effect).
*This is the second time Spencer has joked about being fired, the first being in [[What Up Blogosphere!]]
*Spencer's referral to Taylor as his "little sister" seems to negate any implications that he had felt [[Relationships#Taylor_and_Spencer|romantic feelings]] for her.
* Spencer's "Woodward-Deep Throat" comment is a reference to ''Washington Post'' reporter Bob Woodward, who met with the real Deep Throat, breaking [[pop culture references#Other References|the Watergate scandal]]. Woodward was played by Robert Redford in the Oscar-winning 1976 film, ''All The President's Men'', which is listed as one of [[Nikki Bower]]'s favorite films on her profile pages.
*Spencer's reference to the inside informant (or "mole") is a reference to the Mysterious Reporter, who is suspected as being the one coding the Hymn of One's video entries with secret messages.
