## Biography

She was built by Hinobi with the same technology as all the other Hinobi products. She appears on a show stage along with Ralphie Bear and is programmed to perform and act like she's going to smash the children's birthday cakes and fight Ralphie Bear whenever he shows up on the stage. However, a glitch took over and made her go on a rampage targeting High Five and smashing things that got in her way, causing havoc. Near the end, she was destroyed when she fell from the roof of Joystick Jr. fighting Miko dressed as Ralphie Bear into the water bellow then hung from a water wheel badly smashed.

**Transcript**

**Tutorial Mode** is the third episode of the first season of *Glitch Techs*, was premiered on Netflix on February 21, 2020.

## Synopsis

Glitch Tech training turns out to be a bore. But Miko and High Five's attempt to inject some fun into their session ends with gross consequences.

## Plot

Phil has Five and Miko undergo "The Tutorial" in the simulator, which leads to an irate Miko to break and hard reboot the console. Seeking their tutorial file, they instead locate the full catalogue of all Hinobi games, and procrastinate playing the infamously unsold *Nobi Gross Out*. Meanwhile, Phil, having ignored BITT's earlier warnings, is met by old friend "Bookworm" Barbara, who is to inspect his store because of the tournament Glitch, aiming to reset employees and close up if he fails. While playing, Five and Miko realize "Gross Out" was unsold because it was a glitched game, and release "Garbile" who forces the duo out of the simulator. Not wanting Phil to fire them, they lure Garbile into the trash compactor, mistakenly augmenting the glitch. When Phil and Barbara encounter them, Garbile unleashes his Max-Level fury, but Five and Miko get the idea to summon Garbile's game nemesis, Sanitron, to co-pilot for a win. An impressed Barbara decides not to shut down the store and a thankful Phil still has them complete the tutorial. Elsewhere, Barbara informs a superior about Miko and Five's progress, as said superior believes the duo can locate the reclusive "Bolypius."

Five and Bergy collect the first crystal from a game turtle, but fail to reset a witness, while Nica explains to Miko how her classmates mocked a random student after a misunderstanding, so Nica feels pressure. After Five and Bergy get more crystals, they reluctantly invite Nica as they seek more crystals at a car-wash. In Five's haste, he opens a hole in the ground to reveal a treasure trove and a 'Narwhalrus' Glitch, the boss from an app game Nica plays: "Crystal Crush." Nica proves the gems around them are ammunition, so they use it to attack the Glitch by destroying its projectiles.

Glitch Techs (team)

The **Glitch Techs** are a group of secret operators who work for Hinobi, dedicated to stopping and containing the various monstrous "glitches" that have a tendency to exit the company's games. They work in secret so that the people won't know those glitches exist, and that they come from Hinobi's products and games.

## Biography

The Glitch Techs are a team of professionals designed to capture and defeat glitches that comes from Hinobi's faulty video game consoles.

## Team Members

* Phil Altiere (Boss)
* Mitch Williams (Team Leader)
* B.I.T.T.
* Hector Nieves
* Miko Kubota
* Haneesh Jyoshi
* Zahra
* Ridley (formerly)
* Bergy
* Nix (Tech Support)
* Emma Deveraux (Pet master)
* Barbara (Inspector)
* Simi
* Ally
* **Unknown Glitch Tech Members**

## Team Appearance

Each team member would vary on how their Glitch Tech uniform would look, for example, Miko's Glitch Tech uniform consists of a white suit, a black chest plate with a white H embedded onto it, black sleeves and knee padding, a Glitch Tech glove, clear glasses, and white & pink sneakers.

## Powers, abilities, and equipment

**Gauntlet**: All Glitch Techs possess an augmented glove with weaponry designed to contain and capture glitches. It has the following abilities:

* **Mind Wipe**
* **Energy Blasts**
* **Weapon and Shield Formation**
* **Portals**

Additionally, they receive XP, or (experience points) after they defeat and capture a glitch, (or if one Glitch Tech transfers his or her own to another), they then can use it to buy things in the Hinobi store, or for upgrades, like pet glitch's, additional weapons, abilities and skins (that change the appearance and give some of the previous benefits) for themselves or for their pets.

If the users of the gloves know of electronics and programing, they can add upgrades by hacking the gloves and downloading the code upgrade from another device, like a game or their own program. However, this is not typically approved of by Hinobi corporate.

**Weakness:** The gloves can be ineffective in certain situations, such as Ridley's modded glitches, which had altered programing code, until Ridley downloaded a link to the modified code to Five and Miko's gauntlets. Another instance of this was in Ping. Due to the glitch's retro code not being in the system, the Ping pixel was incompatible with the present weaponry, making it immune.

*Joan Fishback* owns and manages the local Hinobi store in Dabney, a town neighbouring Bailley, and she is the director of its own Glitch Techs team. She is also a veteran Glitch Tech, just like her rival, Phil Altiere. Years ago, she and Phil created an unofficial rule, just being the both of them and their Glitch Tech branches, to not capture Glitches outside of their respective city limits after a petty dispute over Kodama.

## Personality

She is shown to be very sarcastic and bitter towards Phil and his Glitch Techs in particular, but it is unknown if this is as a result of their rivalry with eachother, or if she generally behaves this way.

### Kodama

Kodama was likely a Glitch that Joan had been hunting to capture, however; Phil got to him first despite the little Glitch being in "Dabney territory". Phil has kept him as a companion pet ever since that day, but at the end of "The Real Glitch Techs", Joan reclaims the Glitch. It isn't known whether Phil was able to convince her to return the Glitch to him or not.

## Trivia

* Joan's character was written specifically for her voice actress, Jane Lynch.
* She is likely named after one or both of the following:
	+ Greg Fishbach, co-founder of video communication and content sharing company Rabbit and video game publisher Acclaim Entertainment.

**Quotes**

**Emilio Nieves** is a supporting character of *Glitch Techs*. He is the father of High Five.

## Biography

Emilio Nieves debuts and is first revealed to be Five's father in Ping; however, he only interacts with Five through video calls as he isn't able to physically be there with him. This is due to him serving time in prison for hacking.

In his debut episode, when Five and Miko pay a visit to a retro game store owned by Geri Lawson, it is stated that Emilio had developed a few of the very first video games, those being "Ping", which the episode is named after, "Unicorp" and "Beebuzz".

Emilio was also said to be a "White Hat Hacker", meaning he uses hacking skills to identify vulnerabilities in networks, hardware and software while still abiding by the laws applying to hacking. Despite generally being a White Hat Hacker, he is arrested at some point for illegally hacking a fire wall, and is given a jail sentence. Before he was jailed, he used to take care of Five likely by himself as his mother is said to be absent from Five's life. Now, Papi Nieves and Abuela Nieves look after him until Emilio is released.

## Trivia

* In the episode Ralphie Bear Is Back, Five tells Miko that Emilio hadn't previously allowed him to have a birthday party at the Joystick Juniour's Arcade, but when the day came that he'd finally give Five the opportunity to have a party with Ralphie Bear, those parties were no longer allowed as the mascot had been broken.

As Mitch explains himself, a root form Glitch manifests and the trio struggle to catch it, with only 15 minutes before the Tech Specialist arrives. After setting up a trap when cutting the power, but unaware of the backup generator, the Glitch grows to massive size. Five and Miko learn the house belongs to Mitch, the occupants are his siblings, and his job as a Glitch Tech strained their relationship. As Five and Miko are captured by the Glitch, and Mitch's siblings give him a pep talk about his being needed.

**Return to Castlestein** was an unproduced episode from the unfinished season 3 of *Glitch Techs*.

## Plot

Miko, now a Level 10 Glitch Tech, discovers that now she must take the GSAT test. She becomes so nervous because she’s afraid of failing it, especially since on her first day, she threw away her manual that she thought she didn’t need. Phil tells her that if she doesn’t even bother taking the test, she’ll have to be discharged from being a Glitch Tech. He kindly gives Miko two extra hours to get ready, and he and High Five are confident that Miko will pass. While preparing, and after struggling with studying from the manual and tutorial, Miko calls Ridley for help, who sends her a mod to make the test seem easier. But when Miko activates it, the whole thing turns into a *Castlestein*-themed mod.Template:Citation needed

* **Avatars**: In the Glitch's debut episode, Smashozaurs, it is shown that Possessors have the ability to grant its host an augmented skin of any video game character it has access to. The avatars will initially be low in power, and the host has full control of their actions.

**Plixels** are physical manifestations of pixels, tiny building blocks of matter able to store program information, and what Glitches and the Glitch Techs gear is made of. This technology is exclusive to Hinobi.

## Description

The word "Plixels" is a combination of "Pixel" and "Voxel" (volumetric pixel).

Plixels are physical, programmed graphical elements, in other words, the building blocks glitches are made of. They can be programmed to take various forms and designs. They are the tiny meso bots that both Glitches and Glitch Tech are made of. It is a microscopic smart technology that feeds on power and information to self print into all kinds of complex objects and entities.

Glitch Techs use raw Plixel energy to take on various designs and functions, including an array of video game inspired vehicles, costumes, and equipment.

Plixels can be corrupted by glitch energy, automatically adopting the design and intelligence of hazardous video game objects or creatures.

Those Plixels can affect the real world; they can harm humans and destroy the environment.

However, the effects don’t sustain themselves for long, real-life objects destroyed by plixels will reset after a certain time.

The Glitch Techs make use of Plixels with their gauntlets. When a glitch is hit by a beam of plixels, they not only take physical, but also code-wise damage.
