And finally, the resolution. Ahhh, sweet release.
Thanks to everyone who kept up with this! I'll be taking a short break (as in, working on my own original stuff) before I come back here with some more original blog type post things. Let me know what you think overall! At some point, I'll re-write this in proper format. :)
Thanks Destructoid for the opportunity!

Part 18 is here.
EXT. PLANET KERWAN – DAY
Ratchet, Sasha, Angela, and Clank stand on the roof within a new bustling city underneath a bright blue sky filled with flying cars and other aircraft.
They all watch a video on a floating vid-communicator screen with Abercrombie Fizzwidget signing a number of forms, while he waves and smiles for the camera.
DARLA GRATCH (V.O.)
…the exciting news that Fizzwidget will be taking full responsibility for all further developments at both Megacorp and Gadgetron. Courtney Gears and the leader of Thugs-4-Less are in custody, while Nefarious and Drek are nowhere to be found. In other news—
Ratchet turns it off.
RATCHET
I guess it never ends.
ANGELA
Some things do.
He turns to look at the two ladies in front of him.
RATCHET
You're really going back, huh?
SASHA
I'm afraid so. Metropolis still needs a mayor.
ANGELA
And I just want to go home and get away from it all.
RATCHET
I hear you. It's why I escaped out here.
CLANK
Thank you for all your help, Sasha, Angela.
SASHA
I should be thanking you, Secret Agent Clank.
Clank laughs his signature laugh.
CLANK
I believe my movie days are over.
Sasha hugs Ratchet. Angela hugs Clank. Angela hugs Ratchet. Sasha hugs Clank.
RATCHET
Take care.
ANGELA
Will do.
SASHA
You too.
The two girls turn towards each other. There's a moment between them before they shake each other's hands.
SASHA
You do good work. If you're ever in Metropolis, drop me a line. Maybe I can get you a job.
ANGELA
Politics? No thanks. Maybe security.
SASHA
I can handle myself, thank you very much.
ANGELA
Whatever.
They smile at each other.
Ratchet and Clank watch silently as the two ladies head to their respective ships. The enter them, they blast off, and they disappearing into the sky in opposite directions.
Ratchet looks at Clank. Clank looks at Ratchet.
RATCHET
We make a pretty good team.
CLANK
I would have to agree on that point.
RATCHET
So let's see if we can get this baby going!
CLANK
You are certainly back, Ratchet.
The two walk over to a metal, motorcycle-like aircraft vehicle. Clank grabs the vid-communicator screen and presses a few buttons, changing it into a checklist, while Ratchet fiddles with the vehicle.
CLANK
Fuel-lines.
RATCHET
Check.
CLANK
Horizontal stabilizers.
RATCHET
Check.
CLANK
Ion thrusters.
RATCHET
Looks like we got a tailwind. If we time it right, we could ride the slipstream of the grav-train past the Sea Green track—
CLANK
Ahem.
RATCHET
--launch the mag-grabler onto that headway overpass and slingshot right up to—
CLANK
Ratchet.
Ratchet waves Clank off.
RATCHET
The thrusters are fine, Clank. See?
He turns on the thrusts. They power on for a second then shut down with a puff a smoke. Clank gives Ratchet a look.
RATCHET
Er, don't worry! It's probably just a fused ion duct.
FADE OUT

If this is the end, why would you call it "Part 19 of ???"? Is there a super secret epilogue that constitutes Part 20?
the end is a carbon-copy of the intro the r&cf:toc, so, i'd probably change that before you get too much heat for copy-pasting a sequence that's already been done
@Megastryke - Maybe a sequel? You're right, I'll go back and fix that.
@Zgerhard - Heh, that was kind of the point, in that it was supposed to segue right into the first PS3 game. It wasn't a hack/slash job cause I was out of ideas-- it was done on purpose. If it doesn't work overall, though, I can just cut that end right there.
