Metallic Rouge episode 3 recap
In the previous episode, Rouge and Naomi arrived in Wellstown by bus on a mission to locate Phantom Verde, a member of the Immortal Nine. However, the two got into an argument, and Rouge took off on her own.
Rouge, with Doctor Afdal's help, entered the Nean colony and began to understand more about the inhabitants. She learned that Neans are unable to die of their own accord but are continually resurrected by their masters for their own gain. On the other hand, for the Venus Project, Neans are dispatched to Venus to terraform the planet, often working until their death.
During this time, representatives from The Council of Free Neans (CFN) sought a meeting with Rouge. She was introduced to Juval, a Nean boy who had advocated for this meeting.
As they took a walk together, Juval explained that following the ceasefire agreement with the Usurpers, this town was established for Neans returning from the war. Initially, they were granted self-governance, but this is no longer the case.
Moreover, the autonomy movement was going nowhere due to the Asimov Code, which prevents Neans from harming humans and compels them to obey their orders.
Next, in the series, Juval revealed that the Alters, a faction of Neans, are attempting to resist human control through force. Rouge was taken aback that they could defy the Asimov Code and suspected that these were the individuals she was seeking. The Alters had an informant within the settlement.
As Rouge grew more interested in the Alters, Juval interrupted her, stating that the Neans did not need Rouge's power but her free will. Her ability to be with humans as an equal gives hope to other Neans.
Later that day, as Rouge was still processing this information, a Nean informed her that Juval wished to see her again. Upon entering the specified building, she discovered that Juval had been murdered.
What to expect in Metallic Rouge episode 4
Per the information available on the official website, Metallic Rouge episode 4 will revolve around Rouge, who will become a suspect in Juval's murder case and will subsequently be held by the CFN for questioning. Dumas will be in charge of the interrogation.
On the other hand, the police will also get wind of Juval's murder and send their forces to the Nean settlement. In the midst of this, Naomi will try to free Rouge. She will be seen teaming up with the investigator Ash Stahl and his associate Nean in a bid to rescue Rouge.
