Synopsis
Raptor visits his long-suffering agent, Irving. Irving says Raptor needs a gimmick, and Raptor is about to attack him, but then his guitar suddenly shines. He says he'll get a gimmick that'll blow 'em away forever! Raptor's guitar had picked up energy readings that Pyron is also aware of. Pyron finds out the energy readings are from the trumpet of Jericho, a weapon Demitri says they must have. He tells Anakaris to retrieve it. Meanwhile, Harry's ring glows and sticks his hand onto a globe. Felicia says it looks like the ring wants them to go to North Africa. She defeats Lex, the owner of a gym, in an arm wrestling contest, winning two first class plane tickets to Africa.
She and Harry arrive in Africa, where they see Raptor. They hitch a ride on his plane, but he finds them. Felicia ends up tossing him out of his own plane, but they crash moments later. They survive, just in time to see Raptor heading towards some ruins via car.
They manage to defeat Raptor and Felicia finds the trumpet, only for Anakaris to show up and get the trumpet from her. Raptor manages to take the trumpet from Anakaris, and attaches it to his guitar. He uses it as a weapon, and starts blasting the ruins. Demitri and Morrigan beam down to try and stop Raptor, and Demitri says Ozom, the King of the zombies, demands it. Raptor decides Ozom can have it later.
He says if he can't be the world's best rock star, he'll be the loudest, and blasts Demitri, Morrigan and the others away. Harry is the only one left, but he starts insulting Raptor and getting him mad. Harry gets Raptor to fire a blast at an amphitheater, which bounces back and hits him, causing him to drop the trumpet.
Harry picks up the dented trumpet, and Felicia drives up in Raptor's car. The two leave, as Raptor gets himself back up. He is confronted by Demitri, Morrigan and Anakaris, who all start beating him up. Meanwhile, Felicia and Harry fly away in Raptor's car.
-Irving's voice is provided by Ian Corlett, who also voices Victor and Ship.
-Every time Raptor's guitar shines, it is heard making some screaming noises. These noises are actually the screams of the velociraptors from 1993's Jurassic Park.
-In this episode, Felicia wore a disguise when she was on a plane. In this episode, she doesn't bother with a disguise.
-When Harry flips through his book, one of the pages has some readable English text on it:
The readable parts state "I love ANI", "KIM" and "I am Sorry".
-In the American version of Darkstalkers, Raptor is called a ghoul, not a zombie. However, in the Japanese version of the game, he's called a zombie. In this episode, everyone refers to him as a zombie.
-Felicia refers to Harry as "her little Rambo", referencing the Rambo series.
-The text on the door is missing during this shot and this shot. Also note that the picture hanging on the wall frame changes color between shots.

-Harry says "yeah, but cats have nine lives" to which Felicia responds with "the plane's dissolving! And I think I'm gonna need them!". It sounds like Felicia's two lines should have been the other way around.
