The Venture Bros.: The Family That Slays Together, Stays Together. Part One

On part one of the season finale, Brock faces a difficult challenge as he gets a message from Molotov Cocktease, and her group of fellow female mercenaries, warning him on the impending danger he’s about to face, and also tells him about the price on his head, which she declined to take. Brock, still on the run after being “terminated” from the O.S.I., has to somehow find a way to rescue the Venture family, without his license to kill, and being tracked by dangerous assassins. Not even Molotov Cocktease, Hunter Gathers and a pair of friendly ex-O.S.I. comrades can help Brock on his mission. Meanwhile, the Monarch and his henchmen prepare to attack the Venture Compound. And both the Monarch and Sgt. Hatred make things difficult for Brock on his mission to save the Venture family.

Episode Notes
During the credits, animation director Kimson Albert had a nickname added to his credit, which was a gag from the episode:"Le Teuer". It reads, Kimson "Le Teuer" Albert.

The episode had credited a "Special Thanks" to Vishal Roney & Jennifer Stephens.

The second episode of the season to credit Soulbot as H.E.L.P.eR.

On the AdultSwim.com fix premiere, the episode had an added two minutes to it. Marketed as the "uncut/added bonus footage" version.

Chronological wise, this episode takes place immediately after the post-credits scene from the previous episode, "ORB". Also prior mentions before said episode with the episode The Lepidopterists, where the Monarch's plans to attack the Venture Compound the next day following the event of "The Lepidopterists".

In contrast to other episode, this episode had both the regular "opening title sequence" and the "small interlace scene". Though the "small interlace scene" only appears after the original/bonus scene, which isn't part of the originally aired episode.

This episode did not have an extra ending scene. The episode ended on a "To be Continued" note.
