01-18-08 Plot Synopsis by Me.

Ok, here is the deal. The monster is the long lost Norinko who disappeared while searching for the “mystery ingredient” to enable her to make the most tasty drink in the world. When Norinko found the sea nectar she of course experimented on herself to see if she could make the drink flavor she was looking for. This probably happened before 1991 since the Jimnu Station opened June 14, 1991.

The experiment was a failure since her recipes would ultimately turn poor Norinko into a hideous whale/beast that would be doomed to forever scour the ocean depths to find more of the “sea nectar”.

Enter Ganu and his deep sea bioprospecting. He encounters some of this sea nectar, maybe around 2005 at the Seimu Station (since it has the highest EURR of any station, don’t forget that Slusho is the second most profitable portion of the Tagruato Corp portfolio).

His dream leads him to perform similar experiments as his long lost mother, but they do not immediately lead him to stumble upon the monstrous consequences of the sea nectar.

Now the focus of Tagruato Corp is to find more of the sea nectar to produce into Slusho.

Flash forward to 2008, the fateful day occurs at the Chuai Station (from the movie’s perspective it will already have been opened for a few months). The monster Norikno happens to be near the newly opening Chuai station, feeding on the rich supply of sea nectar on the sea bottom, when she is disturbed by the drilling exploration. Roused for the first time from her decades long undisturbed binge of sea nectar she is understandably furious. The station is mysteriously lost at sea.

On land, undoubtedly the folks in New York are as messy in 2008 as they are today and the aroma of discarded Slusho cups (and the sea nectar itself) is filling the sewer system of NYC (and consequently the sea water surrounding the island). That irresistible aroma attracts her during her destructive rage and she dashes off to find and punish those others who may have been stealing her precious sea nectar.

That day is 01-18-08.

I was watching the trailer again and I saw something flash by the screen very quickly at the 1:12 minute mark. The scene where everyone is vacating the roof after the shrapnel from the explosions is beginning to land all around the party goers.

A clue

The only problem is the top part of the graffiti is off camera so it will take some speculation and some figuring to find out what it is. The part that is readable is a year and some initials (presumably).

2004 ACE

Is the top portion the day and month of the date? I don’t know. I am trying to see if there is some tie in to the Tagruato site. Let me know if you find out anything as well.
