Very much enjoyed this!

So . . . this may ruin My Grand Theory--which is mine--as to why Monarch hates Venture. It WAS because in college Venture laughed in class when the MONARCH [!--Ed.] read one of his stories.

Perhaps the relationship runs deeper?

And didn't Sphinx Commander get decapitated during the OSI promo-video?

Boom! Yummy!

The Monarch doesn't remember that photo being taken. Your theory (which is in fact everyone's) is still most likely. Venture did something to him in college. Perhaps an off-color remark about one of Malcolm's stories. Perhaps calling him a "Closet case."

I always figured the Monarch and Dr. Venture had some old pre-college competitiveness. Such as Dr. Venture and The Monarch sharing the same mom (we know Jonas was a swinger).

Amnesia related to the plane crash perhaps? Might have a Norman Osborn-esque memory relapse.

I'm just waiting for the revelation that the reason Monarch hates Rusty is for something that wasn't his fault. They make up and decide to be true friends...and then Mr. Gentleman blurts out Team Venture crashed the plane carrying the Monarch's parents for a really dumb reason.

"My Theory--which is mine" is a Monty Python reference--John Cleese as a woman claiming that dinosaurs are thin on the end, think in the middle, then thin on the end.

Cleese still likes to use it when discussing things like his theory about fundamentalists, "My Theory, which is mine."

The fools- it must have been a decoy! Or perhaps the Serpentor to his Cobra Commander.

No he didn't, that was Sphinx's 'Destro' equivalent.

Then who was that the 'Baroness' type was with? Probably said in the credits but they went by pretty fast for me.

The Baroness wasn't even credited. It was most likely Jackson doing a higher pitch boice of the Commander. We also had two big stars this time, Tim Meadows as Wind Song, and Larry fucking Murphy as Diamond Backdraft.

Hmm ... definitely sounded like a female doing that line. If Jackson can do that sort of voice, much respect. Did it say who her companion was though- the guy in the t-shirt asking SPHINX leader what he was doing there?

I honestly never expected them to tease any backstory to this. And if there was one, that it'd be something ridiculously petty, like exactly what you said. I never thought about it, but Monarch's parents were extremely rich, maybe they were big-shots that regularly dealt with Jonas Sr? Will this tie into that flashback episode?

Anyway Shore Leave! I missed him.

I wonder if Monarch and Venture are brothers.

That's been debated since season one. I'm guessing half brothers as ol' Jonas got around. Just like Tara is probably Doc's half sister.

Jonas is a lot like Reed Richard's father. I think one of his bastards is also named Tara.

I find it hard to believe that no one has mentioned the Robot Chicken Season 11 finale with the Venture Bros Season 8 scene at the very end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKH-J3f2RkM
