On the one hand, I think it's absolutely in character (and hilarious) for the Tallest to have little remote control pummeling mallets built into each of the bases of the Invaders. On the other hand, I have to wonder why they haven't used the pummeling mallets on Zim more often.
We find out in Walk for your Lives that passing a Probing Day inspection has been one of Zim's greatest goals in life - in fact the quote is too good to pass up. "Even as a small Irken Smeet, my dream was to pass Probing Day like a Slorbeast passes her young: Jiggly, and full of juice!"
Zim does not in fact pass inspection but he also avoids an official pummeling as the temporal prison he had used to encase Dib exploded and destroyed his base. I'm rooting for him to pass next year (even though the Tallest hate him). |
Happy Probing Day, Invader Slacks! You get a pummeling!
I shall try harder, sirs!
