The nineteenth season of Red vs. Blue is the Grand Finale of the series, released as a standalone film. The film sees the Reds and Blues reunited for one last adventure following the events of the Chorus Trilogy, where they must deal with the appearance of an old, sinister foe as well as a ghost from Project Freelancer's past...Burnie Burns and Matt Hullum return as writer and director respectively. The film released on May 7, 2024 and is the last major project by Rooster Teeth, which will close the same month.Given that this the last and final entry in the Red vs. Blue series, all spoilers from Season 1-17 will be unmarked.

Trailers Always Spoil: While the Prologue teases who the Big Bad of the season would be, the official trailer reveals it to be Sigma, or rather the Epsilon AI Fragment of him created at the end of the Chorus Trilogy. The trailer also spoils the fact that Tucker has been made the new Meta.

comment
Darker and Edgier: While the series had its dark moments following The Blood Gulch Chronicles, Restoration is arguably the bleakest it's ever been. While it starts off with the usual comedic fanfare, the film gets progressively darker and it becomes clear Anyone Can Die: Sarge dies halfway through the film, Doc is revealed to have been Killed Offscreen saving Wash from Hargrove's men during the climactic battle on Chorus, and both Texas and Church are Killed Off for Real.

Ambiguous Situation
 Red vs. Blue: Restoration (Web Animation) / int_1f6983f7
comment
Ambiguous Situation: While Epsilon confirms that the events of The Shisno Trilogy and Zero were all just simulations that he ran before his death, it is left a bit unclear if the events of the film are also a simulation or indeed the real world. He at one point comments he couldn't always get Caboose's voice right in his simulations (referencing his new voice actor) and that he can't predict what Caboose says, instead inserting "Shut up, Caboose!" at certain points, which somehow works whenever Caboose goes and says something stupid. He hesitates for a moment when Simmons asks him if they are just a simulation too, which Simmons himself points out.

Back for the Dead
 Red vs. Blue: Restoration (Web Animation) / int_241ca0d8
comment
Back for the Dead: Despite having sacrificed himself by splitting into new AI Fragments, Church is alive and wellnote sort of, strictly speaking the Church we see here is just a series of recorded messages made by Epsilon in the moments prior to his death on Chorus, only Church was so good at predicting how the Reds and Blues would respond to him by that point, he was able to anticipate and respond to them in advance, creating the illusion of him interacting with them even though he really wasn't. Texas is also "revived" as one of the Epsilon AI Fragments. Sadly, both die for good when Caboose follows the latter's plan to ensure the Project Freelancer AI can never be misused or cause any more trouble.

The reveal later in the film that Doc, implied to have helped bust him out, was just his Imaginary Friend, means that Wash escaped entirely on his own.

Bittersweet Ending: Thanks to Caboose and the rest of the Blood Gulch Crew, the Epsilon AI Fragments are locked away in the Memory Containment Unit, freeing Tucker from Epsilon!Sigma's control. However, Sarge died saving Caboose's life halfway through the film, and Caboose follows through on Texas's plan to destroy the Containment Unit, in turn killing the Epsilon AI Fragments to ensure they can never be used to cause trouble again, which includes killing Church as well.

Heroic Sacrifice: Tex, knowing that she will share the same fate as the other A.I., activates the Containment Unit to absorb Epsilon!Sigma and the other fragments out of the Meta's armor and save Tucker. Though considering how she had planned for all of the fragments—herself included—to be destroyed to prevent them from being misused again, she is perfectly fine with this (especially since she'd finally be Together in Death with Church).

Swiss-Cheese Security: After Hargrove's defeat, the UNSC impounded the Staff of Charon and seized everything onboard. When Caboose and the Reds attempt a break-in of the "highly secure" facility where the ship was being stored, they find that not only have all the doors been left unlocked, but there aren't any security on site because all the guards work remotely from home. When the alarms are sounded, the security staff just impotently yell at the intruders to freeze from a video conference screen, but otherwise do nothing to impede their efforts.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Epsilon splitting himself off into new Fragments is the catalyst for the film, as Epsilon!Sigma reveals himself to be just as much of a monster as the original Sigma was by taking control of Tucker's body. The worst part is that this was the Epsilon's Godzilla Threshold. Thankfully, Epsilon at least recognized this would happen and leaves behind a series of pre-recorded messages for the Reds and Blues. Church also admits that he purposely avoided making a new version of the Epsilon fragment to keep the Meta from remaking the Alpha. Unfortunately, this means that the remaining fragments are operating erratically on instinct, and if they do get Epsilon's remaining data, the Alpha they'll make will be unstable and completely unpredictable.

After stopping the Meta and trapping the A.I.s in the Memory Unit, Carolina asks Caboose if Tex had a plan to resolve the issue they keep coming back around, after numerous attempts and potential solutions to prevent their misuse, to which Caboose says yes: by immediately stepping on the Memory Unit and destroying it permanently, killing all of the AI for good so they cannot be misused again. Ironically, the only one who even remotely objects to this is Wash, the one with the most insight from first-hand experience how dangerous and damaging to the psyche an errant AI fragment can be

What Happened to the Mouse?: Lopez briefly appears at the beginning when he discovers Epsilon's recording in Caboose's helmet, but does not appear afterwards at any point, even back at Red Base both before and after the final fight.

She doesn't even appear at Blood Gulch for the Final Battle. Donut is absent from Red Team, and only gets a brief cameo appearance as a random thought Simmons imagines. Dr. Grey refers to him as 'Admiral Donut', implying he got promoted after the events of The Chorus Trilogy.

Stating the Simple Solution
 Red vs. Blue: Restoration (Web Animation) / int_86f4f393
comment
Stating the Simple Solution: After stopping the Meta and trapping the A.I.s in the Memory Unit, Carolina asks Caboose if Tex had a plan to resolve the issue they keep coming back around, after numerous attempts and potential solutions to prevent their misuse, to which Caboose says yes: by immediately stepping on the Memory Unit and destroying it permanently, killing all of the AI for good so they cannot be misused again. Ironically, the only one who even remotely objects to this is Wash, the one with the most insight from first-hand experience how dangerous and damaging to the psyche an errant AI fragment can be After Wash's Deliberate Injury Gambit to trigger his recovery beacon, Doc says he could have just triggered it for him manually. This is subverted when it is revealed "Doc" is just a memory for Wash and not actually there, then Double Subverted when Carolina tells him the next time he wants her attention he can just call her instead of jumping off a cliff.

Bait-and-Switch: At the end of the film, Caboose and the Reds use their memories to bring back Church one last time to help them free Tucker from Epsilon!Sigma. It's not until the confrontation with the Meta that Caboose reveals they didn't bring back Church; they brought back Texas.

The Tape Knew You Would Say That: Similar to what Delta did for Church back in Reconstruction, Epsilon is revealed to have left various recordings for the Blood Gulch Crew in the seconds before he died that respond to them as if he was actually there. He claims he analyzed them enough he was able to accurately predict what they would say. He claims he couldn't do this with Caboose though since he was literally unable to predict anything for him, so he just recorded himself saying "Shut up, Caboose!" at random intervals, which somehow still works.

Tragic Keepsake: Sarge's shotgun. He gifts it to Simmons and also hands command over to him as he lays dying. Ultimately subverted, as this particular shotgun is destroyed shortly after by The Meta, and Simmons takes one of Sarge's numerous other shotguns as a memento instead. The destroyed shotgun is left on Sarge's grave as a mark of respect.

Took a Level in Badass
 Red vs. Blue: Restoration (Web Animation) / int_9bcd82c0

Took a Level in Badass: Downplayed. Texas has always been a badass, but due to being based on Dr. Leonard Church's memories of his late wife, she was always doomed to fail when it looked like she was about to achieve her goal. When Caboose brings her back, she's based on the Blood Gulch Crew's memories of her, thus lacking the original Beta and her prior Epsilon iteration's weakness. She even points this out to Epsilon!Sigma, stating she's always kicked their ass.

comment
Continuity Nod: On top of the numerous Call Backs above, there are direct nods to past events; In their first scene, Agent Washington and Doc talk about their respective experiences with insane AI, namely Omega and Epsilon. Clips from Reconstruction and the Project Freelancer Saga are shown as well; Church and Wash talking in the Freelancer AI storage in Chapter 16 of Reconstruction. Washington and Carolina getting briefed in "Planning the Heist" Wash and CT talking in "Case File 0.1045". In his exposition on the new Meta, Church brings up the "Great Destroyer" prophecy The Blood Gulch Chronicles. Church believes that the Meta is the Great Destroyer, using Tucker's body and his alien sword to lead the aliens to destroy humanity. To bring Church back Caboose and the Reds talk about their experiences together. These experiences include; Tucker and Caboose using the teleporters and getting coated in black stuff to pose as Freelancers. ("Roomier Than It Looks") Donut getting a sticky grenade "(Knock Knock. Who's There? Pain") and obtaining his iconic lightish-red armor. ("A Slightly Crueler Cruller") Tex kicking everyone's asses in the Freelancer Offsite Storage Facility, including Grif's balls getting hit and his "Protect me cone" line. ("This One Goes Up To Eleven" There are also clips from past episodes as well; Donut dodging gunfire ("The Package In In The Open"), Grif getting drugged in "(Terms and Provisions") Simmons getting blasted ("Recovering One") and Tex beating Church up with the Monitor "Restraining Orders".

Contrasting Sequel Antagonist
 Red vs. Blue: Restoration (Web Animation) / int_a3515d6
comment
Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Unlike Agent Maine, the new Meta actually speaks and is something of a Cold Ham, though no less ruthless than his predecessor. He also considers the Reds and Blues to be a serious threat as opposed to an obstacle, though not surprising since they defeated Maine. Furthermore, Sigma managed to break Maine so thoroughly the latter was nothing more than an extension of himself—even when Sigma was destroyed by the EMP alongside the other Project Freelancer AI barring Epsilon, the Meta was obsessed with reclaiming Epsilon and hunted him down, albeit only to power his suit. Tucker is much more mentally resistant and actively fights back against Epsilon!Sigma, though he only ever manages to stop himself for a brief moment when the Epsilon AI Fragment regains control before punishing him for his interference. The new Meta also accomplishes something Maine failed to do in his previous encounters with the Reds and Blues: successfully kill one of them.

When he does, Epsilon!Sigma puts him through ten years of uninterrupted torture to punish and mentally break himnote AI perceive time at a much slower rate as seen with Epsilon in Seasons 12 and 13.

Came Back Wrong: Discussed. When explaining the Meta's goals, Epsilon states he purposefully chose not to make an Epsilon AI Fragment based on himself in the event the other AI Fragments acted erratically and Epsilon!Sigma resumed his Alpha iteration's plans for metastability. However, this also means that if the Meta gets his hands on what little's left of Epsilon's code inside Caboose's helmet, the resulting Epsilon!Alpha AI will be unstable.

True Companions: While this was already the case as far back as the end of the Reconstruction trilogy, Restoration firmly establishes the Reds and Blues as this. Halfway through the film, Sarge doubles back and goes to save Caboose from the Meta, an act that ultimately costs him his life as he's stabbed in the back by the Meta. Sarge finds it ironic he died saving a "Blue" of all people, but he sees Caboose as a dear friend and doesn't regret his decision at all.

Ship Tease: There is a bit with Carolina and Washington towards the end. When she is comforting him over Doc's death from the final battle on Chorus, she assures him the two of them made it though every struggle and that she's not going anywhere and will always be there for him.

Not Quite Dead
 Red vs. Blue: Restoration (Web Animation) / int_e431c24c
comment
Not Quite Dead: Although Epsilon effectively killed himself by breaking apart into new AI Fragments based on the original Alpha AI emotional cores, he's technically still alive as bits of his code were stored inside Caboose's old helmet. The end of the film sees him fully dead as what remains of Epsilon is destroyed by Caboose inside the Memory Containment Unit to ensure the Project Freelancer AIs can never be misused.

No Man Should Have This Power
 Red vs. Blue: Restoration (Web Animation) / int_e888fbd8
comment
No Man Should Have This Power: The general consensus regarding the Epsilon AI Fragments. Wash suggests they seal the AI away someplace where no one can find and abuse them as the Director did with the Alpha, whereas Texas advocates destroying them to ensure no one will misuse them. Caboose follows her plan and destroys the Memory Containment Unit housing them, including Tex and Church.

Groin Attack: During the final battle, Tex at one point kicks The Meta right in the crotch, causing Simmons, Caboose and Grif to wince. Grif comments on it, glad to not be on the receiving end for once.

Everything Is Online: A plot point. It's theorized that Epsilon hid the last pieces of himself inside of Caboose's helmet is because it's obsolete. The current model of helmet are linked to Command's computers to receive and provide tactical intel. Since Caboose's helmet isn't linked, the Meta wouldn't be able to remotely steal the last fragment remotely via hacking.

Pet the Dog: After Sarge promotes him to Red Team leader, Simmons' first order of business is to dismiss Grif from Red Team and has the paperwork all ready to go. Grif, who has been looking for just about any excuse to leave Red Team behind for years, chooses to stay on with Red Team until they free Tucker from Epsilon!Sigma.
