Three Percenters is the sixth episode of the short-lived Fox science-fiction action series Harsh Realm. It was the third of six remaining episodes that were aired on the Fox affiliate fX after the series was abruptly cancelled.
[edit] Plot synopsis
On a mission to recover supplies from a lost squad of Santiago's soldiers - and with Waters (Max Martini) and the Republican Guard hot on their heels - Hobbes (Scott Bairstow) encounters the Three Percenters, characters of Harsh Realm that were not meant to be created. The game designers of Harsh Realm had a three percent error rate which created disfunctional, angry characters. Hobbes, Pinocchio (D. B. Sweeney) and Florence (Rachel Hayward) soon find themselves captives of the three percenters posing as a group of pacifists.
[edit] Allusions
- Pinocchio mentions "Yogi, Boo Boo and a picnic basket," referring to the classic Hanna-Barbera character.
