Allen (Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1)
two-part season premiere of Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1
"Allen" is the two-part season premiere of the eighth season of the American animated television series Aqua Teen Hunger Force (under the alternative title of Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1), and the 101st and 102nd episodes of the series overall respectively. Both parts of "Allen" originally aired in the United States on May 8, 2011 and May 15, 2011, respectively on Adult Swim. In the first part, Master Shake freezes himself in Dr. Weird's lab and awakes up nine years later disoriented and with no knowledge of the whereabouts of Frylock and Meatwad. In the second part, Shake discovers the world is now controlled by a god-like figure named Allen who kills anyone who misbehaves in order to maintain the world as a Utopia where everyone has respect for one another.
"Allen" is the first episode of the series to be branded under an alternative title, and the first part marks the final appearance of Dr. Weird. The script for the beginning of the first part was read live by the main cast at Dragon*Con in 2010, months before the episode originally aired on television. This is the first two-part episode since "Last Last One Forever and Ever" and "Rabbot Redux"; no other multi-part episodes have premiered since. Both parts later aired together back-to-back in a half-hour block on May 29, 2011.
