My opinion about The berang-berang Woman (Skilene (?) hints)- (SPOILERS)

posted by SummerPoM

The Skilene theory

I watched The berang-berang Woman two times, but in the detik I noticed something more.
Many fan will say: "Skipper fell for Arlene, not Marlene!". Yes. This is true (except if Skipper was really pretending). But in this episode, is almost clear that Skilene (Skipper and Marlene pairing) happens.

1 - Skipper berkata Marlene is the right "guy" for help them. He ignored the real guys. Skilene probability: 35%

2 - When Skipper fell for Arlene, he says something "flirty" about her [Arlene]. In the same scene, Marlene gets jealous and annoyed. She also berkata "Skipper". Only "Skipper". She don't became annoyed/jealous of the other penguins. Every time he flirts with Arlene, Marlene gets jealous. Skilene probability: 52%

3 - Skipper drawed a pinguin, penguin representing himself and an berang-berang with a heart between them (Probably is an animasi error, but I like another theory). Later, when Arlene see that, Skipper erase the berang-berang (?) and the heart. Skilene probability: 80% (if isn't an animasi error) atau 30% (by Icicle, if it's an animasi error)

4 - Arlene asks him if she is so much prettier than Marlene (I heard that). When he confirms, she gets confused/surprised/annoyed and tries to explain her situation. Skilene probability: 36%

5 - When Skipper goes to Marlene's habitat (with mint spray and yadda yadda yadda), he asks Arlene where's Marlene. How he knew Arlene was in Marlene's habitat? Skilene probability: 43%

6 - When Arlene handed Marlene's foto to Skipper, he looked for it (or Arlene, unfortunately) dreamily. Skilene probability: 59%

7 - After it, Skipper thinks Arlene did something bad for Marlene. He also interrogate Arlene and pursue her. Skilene probability: 54%

8 - And finally, in the end, Skipper says Arlene is cold and hot, Marlene gets jealous...again! Skilene probability: 51%

As we see, the "hints" aren't so good as The lost Treasure of the Golden Squirrel and Miss Understanding, but yes, The berang-berang Woman has somewhat Skilene. Thanks for reading!

starslight101 Wow. You're right! I guess Skilene is real!

Icicle1penguin I agree with some, but disagree with most. :P I'm a Skilener and all (HAHA! BEST PAIRING EVA!) But I still prefer to use...logic? #1...Eh. Sure. #2...Either you're correct, or she was just annoyed at how he doesn't recognize her. #3...Could be an mistake made by the creators. But I like that! Maybe make it 30%. #4...Really? Golly, I only watched the english version once. Haha! I don't recall what happened. #5...Skipper said something about Arlene bunking with Marlene. Then he asked "Where IS Marlene?" I dunno how he found her though. Must've followed her. #6...He could be dreamily looking at Arlene. Hahaha! #7...Yeah. He thought Arlene did something bad to Marlene. X3 #8..."Cold as she was hot" Hahaha! :D I don't know whether she was jealous or still annoyed that he can't see that SHE was Arlene. X) That is still my favorite "Skilene" episodes! Various Skilene "hints" aren't THAT big, but oh well. X3 I like how Skipper saves Marlene, Marlene saving Skipper from the darts, how they clash, how Skipper put his arm around her 3x(maybe more later). Skilene is still likely, in my opinion. Despite the fact that he fell for "Arlene" and not the actual "Marlene" I still love the fact that he(and Julien) liked Marlene...even though she was not herself at the time. XD (I've been hoping for a Skipper Vs. Julien when it came to love. XD)

skipperfan5431 No offense. You made some pretty good guesses, but I would have to say I don't agree. If Skipper really liked Marlene, he would have said it already!!! Besides, She got pissed when he thought he liked her because she dosn't like him like that.

SummerPoM @Icicle: YEAH I FREAKED OUT x3 Well, everybody interprets in own way. Like 2nd "hint". 3 - Yeah, I agree. I'll write correctly, sorry -qq 5th hint: I don't heared that, I think...'-' 6th: Yeah, this is a probability and I thought this too (Hoping we are wrong xD). 8 - The two probabilities are Skilene...Marlene would love be called "Cold and hot" by Skipper, you agree? But, like the title says (isn't the right word, buuuuut...x3)...they are probabilities of these scenes are Skilene, and I think they are low :( @Skipperfan5431: They are only friends with romantic hints, not boyfriend and girlfriend...it's just probabilities of hints, not real hints like Miss Understanding. Thanks for read :)

xDark_Angelx I completely respect your thoughts, and your ideas aren't so bad. However, I don't exactly see eye-to-eye with them, and would like to point out my thoughts, if you don't mind. As for number one, I don't exactly get that. But that's more anti-Skilene, honestly. He called Marlene a guy, when everyone knows she's actually a girl! Skipper said they needed someone fair and impartial (or someone close around that), and they looked for Marlene. It's not exactly much of a compliment anyway. In the points where you mention that Marlene is "jealous", I highly doubt that she is. At first, she's definetely more annoyed than jealous. Also, she is just so shocked by the expressions of her friends and how their acting towards her. She mentions Skipper probably because he was, out of the three of them who fell for her, acting most out of character and admiring her. Secondly, she's only angry in the second because Skipper doesn't believe her-no one does until Mort comes around. Marlene was several things-confused, shocked, weirded out, and a bit angry-but jealous was never something that came across my mind as I watched this episode. As for the picture Skipper made, I see that as an animator's mistake. Yes, I don't see the white mark, either, unless someone looks unbelievably close, and even then probably not. So that one works. Number four: I don't remember that at all. Either I have rewatch or something, or maybe that's a part of another version for it. For number five, he probably couldn't find her and wanted to see her, and he knew where Arlene was bunking, he probably decided to check there for her. For number six, I'm guessing his expression is towards Arlene. And for seven, I remember that, too. How he seems to forget his little crush on "Arlene" and becomes concerned for Marlene since he thinks Arlene did something is, I guess, a teeny bit Skilene-ish. I like Skilene, but I like to be realistic, too. Your hypothesizing about the episode is admirable and very thought out, but I want to think hard about this, too. Don't feel bad or anything about what I have to say about this, though. It's your article and you could stick with your own thoughts. Overall, this episode was not as Skilene as I expected it. It may have been a 4.5, maybe a bit less, on a scale of 1-10.

SummerPoM ^I agree with the note, but the percentages are for the possibilities of Skilene hints. Yeah, Dreamworks let us down T.T

xDark_Angelx ^Skilene "hints." Okay, that's different. :) But I guess they decided not to bring in too much Skilene, because then people might think he has a crush on Marlene, or the other way around. And that information has yet to be completely confirmed just-oh, forget logic. The episode was a let down, but I guess we shouldn't have had our hopes too high. D:

SummerPoM ^I totally agree, like in "Love Takes Flightless". All we [Skileners] thought this episode would be a Skilene (or an episode with hints), or even a Dorski episode, not Rico X Something that I don't know what is (x3). Be honest, do you think Skilene will happen WHEN? '-'

xDark_Angelx Honestly? I don't think Skilene will happen. It's a shame to think that, but it's just what I'm thinking. I only see them as friends, nothing more, in the show, even when it ends. I enjoy thinking it could become more, but I have a feeling it won't on the show.

SummerPoM Personal opinion: Yeah, you're right if PoM never ends (like Spongebob)...but if ends someday, we have a little hope that Skilene will happen. And if PoM never ends and Skilene happens, this will be for a single episode, because Dreamworks hate us *RUNS* x3 Lol, they hate pairings...:(

xDark_Angelx ^A show can never end, though. Hate to become a sudden downer on things, but every show has its limit and stops eventually. There's that rare chance where it goes on for a long time (i.e. Simpsons, Spongebob, and Fairly Odd Parents), but their running cannot last forever. But I'll be honest again. Someday, perhaps (again I'll say it, perhaps! XD) there will be that one Skilene moment where it might be something more. The chances are low, but you can just never know until it comes. :)

SummerPoM ^LOL, when I said NEVER (Never, never, never...) I mean exactly what you said. Well, what can we do? 1. Wait 2. Keep the hopes 3. Bribing Dreamworks >:3

EppofangirlXD Well, I like your logic. :) and I love Skilene!

kasiaiania104 @SummerPoM LOL Great ideas ;) "Bribing Dreamworks" :D
