Iced In A War

Iced In A War is the 38th episode of Season 4 of California City Show and the 178th entire series overall. It aired on September 20, 2021 on CCTV Network.

Synopsis
Junichiro boards a flight to the island of Neopalita, which is a T-shaped island within the western outer island off the coast of California. However, he becomes shocked after finding out a visa is required to board a flight there even though it is almost directly off the coast of his home country, so he commandeers an abandoned ultralight that was used in the California City Defense movie. He proceeds to fly it out of the museum and flies straight to the island of Neopalita only for it's food that he looked up, but upon arriving he is noticed by the royal police who chase him a short distance before giving up.

After landing in a ravine between two long mountains made of slate, he proceeds to find the nearest town on the island, and then finds a food stall selling the island's well known Central White Cheddar, which tastes like Swiss and Parmesan mixed together and is completely white and it derives from goats milk. He tries to buy some, but is forced by the food stall owner to pay 25 reals, which he does not have, but a nearby friendly citizen offers him some only because he wanted it and that he has never tried it, but at the same time warns that a wrong move on the island could land him in prison, to which he fearfully agrees and proceeds to buy his cheese, which comes with a free breadstick.

As Junichiro walks throughout the rest of the town, he notices that the island's citizens speak Italian or a form of English with an Italian based accent and notices that a majority of them are outgoing towards tourists and he even befriends one (Amel). But when he tries to talk to him however, he pulls him between two buildings and discusses that he cannot risk getting arrested for hanging out with a foreigner considering how the island's ruler does not like uninvited foreigners on his land. Amel asks him how he landed to the island, Junichiro replies that he got there with an ultralight, which scares him. The two proceed to a nearby restaurant while Junichrio is still finishing his small wheel of Central White Cheddar and his Breadstick, and Amel proceeds to buy a pork-on-a-stick with a thin slice of butter. Junichiro begins discussing life at his home country, but Amel tells him that he has a better life there than in Neopalita, given that the king is heavy handed towards certain freedoms, and protesting is a crime on the island. He also discusses that since the island was founded in 1910, English and Italian have been the island's official languages. However, it does not take long for the island's federal police to find him and both of them are arrested and thrown in prison without trial.

While in jail, Junichiro urges Amel to write a letter to his friend Lamar to free him, but tells him that he has to do it himself. Lamar later receives a letter about Junichiro's Imprisonment and immediately contacts the US Embassy in Neopalita in regards to the issue. Eventually, Junichiro and Amel are both taken to the king to face their punishment, but the sentencing is interrupted after he is bombarded to free Junichiro out of prison. The king instead orders both of them banned from the island for 35 years, and both are sent back to California.

Once there, Lamar meets the two and Amel attempts to become a US citizen, but it is interrupted when he sees Marina Stowers and Summer Bryers nearby, both of which claim to be from the island in the series and he immediately recognizes them.
