Amber Gold. She makes a crack when her wig comes off that she wears it so her name isn't Dishwasher Blonde.

The guys name is Headshot.

There ya go then, totally spelled it out for us.

Though Headshot should be like "Earl" or "Jack" or "Wayne" since Scarlet was always paired with Duke, who wasn't a Glam-man like Headshot implies.  /nitpick.

Headshot is a sniper so it has a nice double meaning.

Clearly I missed more than I thought by staying up that late to watch. I'll have to catch it on the DVR.  So not a direct analog to Duke, but close enough to be amusing.  I like the double joke better.

Scarlett was always more in the Snake Eyes corner anyway.

Holy crap I'd forgotten his parents died in a plane crash. 

The mumblings of Vendata were plane-crash related and since they love being self-referential you're probably right.  Heh, the Venture Bros wiki is also updated with this speculation.

The first statement he makes is robocop and the plane crash reference is from the six million dollar man.  I don't think he has anything to do with the monarch.

I'd like to know how Venture survives that ending.  I assumed the after titles would deal with that but it was Phantom Limb.

It'd be 6 million dollar man if it were the ramblings of a test pilot.  He mumbles about finding his wife, though.  We'll see in another 3 years, I imagine.

Ya, they've been dropping hints like the photo several eps ago of Monarch's dad with Jonas.

Last season was broken up into two eight episode "volumes", so hopefully they have another eight more in the bank but I don't actually know.

Nope. Set for return late 2014/early 2015.
