That guy is secretly a ninja in training, Franz's reign of terror continues.

Or maybe Franz is making commercials? "ACME ladders—strong enough to take a kick from Franz Rayner."

And without batting an eye at the presence of Doc right by the camera, either. (Unless that's actually Old.)

[up] Of course not. He's a professional. He'll finish that take no matter what happens off screen.

Doc is not amused. Now he has to treat a patient before talking to Rayner about Knickerbockers.

Guy works for Franz. The Hippocratic Oath makes a clear exception for supervillain mooks.

Looks more like he works for the same guy Franz works for, to me. And wasn't in on the evil scheme to break a ladder. That's not a mook, that's a clueless patsy. Completely different.

Yeah it's not a henchman, it's just a regular guy working for the same studio.

I have multiple theories on why the ladder to the head ended so poorly for the ladder.

  • The obvious and most simple explanation is that its a really really shitty ladder.
  • The good doctor might have some sort of fancy ninja helmet hidden under his mask.
  • Doc's figured out how to apply that trick Bruce Lee taught him back on the moon to allow him to jump super high into boosting other physical abilities. In this case durability.
  • Doc got Shawn to reprogram the Dracula Bot into a Dr. McNinja bot and is using it as a decoy.
  • Or Doc really does just have that hard of the head and ninja tricks or more mundane forms of trickery have nothing to do with it.

Shitty ladder is my guess.

The ladder appears to be made of paper mache pained to look like steel.

Well of course, who'd spare a real ladder for the commercial?

You all think ninjas can be taken out by a LADDER?

Fools.

Look, toss Doc and Jackie Chan into a Walmart. Who wins?

Jackie Chan and Denzel Washington in a home depot.

Hmm... earth might be destroyed. Best we just fill it with red shirts and see who can get the high score in an hour.

Why would either of them kill innocent bystanders? If you mean mooks instead of Red Shirts, then yeah, that would be cool.

Why is Jackie Chan good in a Wal-Mart or Home Depot? His Chuck Norris level is in a museum not looking for trouble.

Jackie is a improbable weapon user. And since there are so many items in a Walmart and Home Depot...
