I’m not sure if this counts as a spoiler but I marked it as such, just in case. After watching the first ep of season 2 a few times, I started wondering why didn’t Angstrom ask Cecil for help with his project? He’s not doing anything evil/unethical. He has a good idea that could potentially work and solve a lot of issues across dimensions, so I don’t think Cecil would decline. They could then just use the Mauler twins in exchange for more comfortable prison environment and better food or cutting their sentence in half or something like that. The only reason I think Angstrom might not want this is because Cecil would have him " on a leash ", but even then, it’d be the path of least resistance and bloodshed. Is there something else I missed or a canonical reason I didn’t realize?

    Because Cecil and the government aren’t the good guys. They are just people trying to protect their self interests which just happen to be the planet we all live on. If you gave the government a cure for cancer, we’d either reject it because it’s not profitable, or we’ll charge out the ass for it.
