In this video, I showcase myself exploring the Dexter's Diner hub in the Japanese PS2 version of LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game. It should've been called Dex's Diner since that's the correct name. I even show the pot that you can use the Sith Force on which Quick Brick Games did not show in his video of exploring this hub world. I show a glitch outside Dexter's Diner which other YouTubers have showcased. I implement Brenda Leigh Johnson's first name in the Enter Code as a way to point out that she debuted in the crime drama The Closer in the same year that this game and Revenge of the Sith came out. You can easily understand why it would be inappropriate if you put her in any popular culture where the intended audience is children. I don't speak in this video, but you can imagine what I would be saying if I did. Imagine a G.I. Joe-style PSA that teaches kids not to watch The Closer like "Kids, don't watch The Closer!" I showcase everything that you can find and do in Dexter's Diner which is the right thing so this is an analysis of it. I remember playing this game on the GameCube a lot as a kid and I found a lot of aesthetic bugs and glitches which are not in the other versions, likely due to the smaller disc space. However, none of those aesthetic bugs and glitches are in the GameCube version of LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy. This is an example of a GameCube game where you have to use the Y button to go back instead of the B button like in most GameCube games. However, the GameCube version of the second game has you going back with the B button. This and the two hub worlds in LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars are the only ones in a TT LEGO game from home console where you can get attacked by a good character in the hub world while playing as an evil character without initiating an attack on a character beforehand.

The way that a Japanese version of a Thomas & Friends product from LeapFrog Enterprises would've worked is that the cast from the Japanese dub of the TV series at the time would've reprised their roles. I would say the same thing about Japanese versions of Thomas & Friends products from other companies that were not released in Japan.

Not only have I done a scenario of Brenda Leigh Johnson getting fired from her teaching position in 8th Grade social studies because she made racist and rapist jokes, talked too much about politics, snapped at students and monologued too much, but I've also done scenarios of her getting fired for other reasons like thinking that the Japanese dub of Thomas & Friends is racist because of them speaking Japanese when it's appropriate for its intended audience of children, telling students about Phil Hartman's death and South Park, talking and/or showing popular culture that kids are not age appropriate for or kids stuff that is actually inappropriate for them like ER, South Park, the 1994 movie North, Family Guy and so many others which I'm planning on by creating a transcript beforehand.

Here's what Kyra Sedgwick's name would look like in Japanese:

キラ・セッジウィック (Kira Sedgewick)

And here's what Brenda Leigh Johnson's name would look like in Japanese:

ブレンダ・リー・ジョンソン (Brenda Rie Johnson)

Here's what The Closer would look like in Japanese:

ザ・クローサー (Za Closer)

Here's an example of a dialogue exchange from the first episode of The Closer in Japanese which is "No need to be a bitch about it" and the reply "If liked being called a bitch to my face, I'd still be married.":

そんなに意地悪にならなくてもいいじゃない (sonnani ijiwaru ni nara naku te mo ii jaya nai_
and the reply:
もし私が顔に向かって『ビッチ』と呼ばれるのが好きだったなら、まだ結婚していたでしょう。(moshi watashi no kao ni mukatsu te bitch to yoba reru no ga suki datsu ta nara 、 watashi wa mada kekkon shi te i ta daro u.)

That line is very inappropriate for kids which is why it's rated TV-14. That's an example of why the series is not for kids in terms of language.

Here's another example from Brenda Leigh Johnson in a later episode which is "Who's the bitch now?":

今度は誰がビッチだ?(kondo wa dare ga bitch da?)

Molly Weasley uses the b-word in the movie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 and it's rated PG-13.

I use Brenda Leigh Johnson as an example of what a teacher or administrator cannot be like in any school or college when you consider how unethical and unprofessional she is as a deputy chief and if a staff member is like her, then they should be fired which would be the right thing.

As a kid, I always thought that The Closer was set in Colorado when it's actually set in Los Angeles which I've referenced in Animal Crossing: New Horizons such as with the Colorado flag. That's a main reason why I love associating South Park with Kyra Sedgwick since it's set in Colorado. The series premiered six days before her 32nd birthday on August 13, 1997. As always, she probably would've been against guest starring on South Park early on because Trey Parker and Matt Stone would've only offered her an obscure role as a joke which you can make up yourself.
