Props to Slack for the recap!
<Slack> I guess I have enough time to watch mano's guest appearance on
Face Maker
YEAH BABY 
<Slack> wow, first 30 seconds, she tries to stab someone
<Slack> and that someone turns out to be a police officer????
<Slack> oooh, a detective
<Slack> she wants to have her face changed by the face maker plastic surgeon doc of the title
<daigong69> jaja Face/Off
<Slack> during a high speed chase, she swerved to avoid crashing but ran over the mother of mano's character
<Slack> manoeri crying desperately while detective lady performs cpr
<Slack> slow mo fade to white
<Slack> later, daughter calls her out, calls her a murderer
<Slack> "GIVE ME BACK MY MOM!!!"
<Slack> has to be held back
* jafeijai loves Slack's commentary
<Slack> so mano's character wants to get revenge on the detective, but she feels genuine sorrow and regret
<Slack> so she asks mr. doctor dude to give her a new face so she can take care of mano
<Slack> title intro
<Slack> says he worked in america for the witness protection program
<Slack> shows him doing the exact same thing as in face/off
<Slack> but in exchange for giving someone a new face, he takes theirs
<Slack> 1 month later, unwrapping the bandages: "this is your new face."
<Slack> her old face is now in a jar at the guy's place
<Slack> omg, mano accepting money from a creepy salaryman at a motel
<Slack> when he gets out of the shower, she's gone
<Slack> just as he catches up to her, ms. detective with new face chases him off
<Slack> now mano's being all rude to her even after saving her
<Slack> detective brings mano back to her house, now they're eating curry.
<Slack> mano looks pissed
<Slack> mano's all ??? about this strange woman who's being so nice to her out of nowhere
<Slack> mano's character goes out late at night, detective is worried, goes out looking for her
<Slack> runs into dr. dude at the waterfront
<Slack> he says he already gave her old face to someone else
<Slack> now she can't change back even if she wanted to
<Slack> he wanted to tell her this, even though he's letting her live her life how she wants
<Slack> just then, cell phone call
<Slack> mano's gotten in trouble and is at the police station
<Slack> ex-detective goes to pick her up, is apologizing to her former partner for her new adopted sister
<Slack> mano asks the dude: "hey, is that detective here?"
<Slack> he says no
<Slack> on the way back home, new face detective asks why mano asked about her former self
<Slack> mano says she wants to kill her
<Slack> damn, mano's doing good in this thing
<Slack> argument
<Slack> detective: *SLAP*
<Slack> just then, the woman who now has her old face walks by
<Slack> TENSE MUSIC PLAYS
<Slack> and now we have a problem.
<Slack> mano's out for revenge and thinks someone else is the detective who killed her mom
<Slack> so then a scene that mirrors the first one in the episode
<Slack> mano charges at the woman (who coincidentally works at the police station or something) with a knife
<Slack> but this time instead of being merely disarmed and restrained like in the first scene, she gets bet down
<Slack> beat down
<Slack> wow this new woman's a bitch
<Slack> "next time you'll be the one who's dead."
<Slack> *backhand*
<Slack> mano lip is bloodied
<Slack> she comes back home
<Slack> ex detective is like "hey, what happened?!?"
<Slack> mano crying in frustration explaining that it was "that woman"
<Slack> ex detective says "riko," (mano's character's name) "that woman is not the same one you're after"
<Slack> "I'm going to tell you what really happened"
<Slack> "the person who really killed your mother..."
<Slack> "... was me"
<Slack> mano: wtf?
<Slack> ex-detective tells her she changed her face and her name so she could get close and be able to take care of her
<Slack> "if you still want to kill me, it doesn't matter"
<Slack> mano doesn't want to believe it
<Slack> she's all wtf, this kind of shit doesn't really happen. you think I'm an idiot?!
<Slack> runs out
<Slack> sad music throughout
<Slack> uh oh this is bad
<Slack> she goes back to the dr, demands to know who has her old face
<Slack> he's all like "what will you do if I tell you?"
<Slack> "this was your wish. the result of your desire for atonement"
<Slack> cell phone call
<Slack> it's from riko, who just followed the woman back to her house
<Slack> scream over cell phone
<Slack> "RIKO?!?"
<Slack> I think the woman with her face now is a drug runner
<Slack> she's just made a drug sale, leaving unconscious mano-chan with the drug buyers
<Slack> she wakes up and they're all "how much did you hear?"
<daiSAIENCE> badass
<Slack> henchman start strangling her
<Slack> just then, ex-detective comes in, beats the fuck out of the drug dudes
<Slack> but the boss pulls out a gun
<Slack> is about to shoot mano
<Slack> BANG
<Slack> ex detective takes the bullet
<Slack> gets shot a second time
<Slack> now mano's lost two mother figures who both saved her life
<Slack> sad music
<Slack> as she's lying there bleeding out, "riko... I want to... make you curry... just one more time"
<Slack> very T_T scene
<Slack> *dies*
<Slack> "don't die!! don't leave me alone now!"
<Slack> I meant the ex detective dies
<Slack> damn that was pretty good
<Slack> woman who took the ex-detective face took her job too, is really making drug deals
<Slack> she spots the doctor outside of the warehouse where the shooting went down
<Slack> she was sent down to investigate the shooting
<Slack> gives doc an evil smile
<Slack> end episode
<daiSAIENCE> Hardcore Slack
<jafeijai> gotta admit, that sounds like a good drama
<Slack> I liked that one
<Slack> mano's acting certainly has improved
