1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
previously on Dumbgeons and Dragons.

2
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:52,640
Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons!

3
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,960
We're a D&D 5th Edition actual play podcast, and I'm your dungeon master Russ More,

4
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,439
and with me today is Tom Laird.

5
00:01:00,439 --> 00:01:01,439
That's me.

6
00:01:01,439 --> 00:01:03,000
I'm playing Flint Firebeard.

7
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,640
Amy More is also here.

8
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:05,640
I am.

9
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,120
I'm here, and I'm playing Thea Amastasia.

10
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,040
And joining us today for this Flint and Thea episode is Carla Maxted.

11
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:19,240
Yes, I am here playing a secret character to be revealed.

12
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,240
Wait for it.

13
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:21,240
Momentarily.

14
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:22,760
Wait for it.

15
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:27,800
And extra special joining us today is a wonderful guest from Bombarded.

16
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:28,800
It's Kyle Claset.

17
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:29,800
Oh, hey, how's it going?

18
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:30,800
How y'all doing?

19
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:31,800
Yay.

20
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:32,800
Hi Kyle.

21
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:33,800
So good.

22
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:34,800
So good.

23
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:35,800
Thanks.

24
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:36,800
Thanks for having me.

25
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:37,800
Thank you for being here.

26
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,400
Why don't you briefly tell us, you know, I already told them what podcast, but

27
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,800
some of the deets on who you are and where they can find you.

28
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,560
Oh, well, like Russ said, I am Kyle Claset.

29
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,240
I'm the dungeon maestro for Bombarded, which is a D&D podcast.

30
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:53,680
I do with my band.

31
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:58,280
And we roll dice every episode to determine what chords we use in a song, which that

32
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:06,120
song will have an effect in the actual gameplay, depending on how well they do and meet the

33
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,400
I don't know how to go past that.

34
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,200
But you know, we write a song every episode and we do the music things with the Dungeons

35
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,200
and Dragons.

36
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,439
So, you know, you can check us out on any like podcatcher and you'll see it just

37
00:02:15,439 --> 00:02:18,000
type in Bombarded and it'll pop up for you.

38
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,719
It's very fun, very fun show.

39
00:02:19,719 --> 00:02:20,960
And I love the music.

40
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:25,040
And I was very curious how long it took you to actually write those songs or how long it

41
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,520
took your players to write those songs.

42
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,600
And it sometimes takes a long time.

43
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:29,680
It can, it can.

44
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:34,280
But you know, we eventually get it done and then we're just on to the next thing.

45
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,840
We try to keep it where we don't have to record more than one song in a session

46
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:38,840
that we meet.

47
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,879
But crazier things have happened.

48
00:02:40,879 --> 00:02:42,319
I mean, K.O.

49
00:02:42,319 --> 00:02:45,080
Sauce always gets the job done.

50
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:46,080
It's true.

51
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,080
They do.

52
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:48,080
Well, musically, yes.

53
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,520
God, if we had to go away and do something and then come back, it wouldn't get done.

54
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:54,520
It would never happen.

55
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:55,520
We don't forget.

56
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,520
I don't think I'd ever come back.

57
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,160
That's what send us a message in two hours and be like, did you finish the thing?

58
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,080
And we'd be like, oh, can I come back now?

59
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,600
I haven't checked Discord for four days.

60
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:06,600
Right?

61
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:07,600
Yikes.

62
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:08,600
Yeah.

63
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,520
Oh, well, that's our show.

64
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:17,240
Where you probably will figure that out is over on Patreon, Patreon.com slash dumb

65
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:18,920
dragon cast, where you can come join us.

66
00:03:18,920 --> 00:03:22,159
And when you are a patron of ours, you get an episode dedicated to you like today's

67
00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:24,560
patron, Cat Waterflame.

68
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,560
Thanks, Cat.

69
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:26,560
Oh yeah, Cat.

70
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,000
With your blue hair and your Post-It notes.

71
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Just got it all happening.

72
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,000
All of those things.

73
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,719
See, we learn all about our patrons over on Patreon with those sweet, sweet monthly

74
00:03:35,719 --> 00:03:37,120
hangouts.

75
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,840
We'd love you to come join us.

76
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:44,680
And now, fuck it, let's play D&D.

77
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,480
We open on a scene.

78
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,560
It's very early morning.

79
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,840
The sun hasn't even risen yet.

80
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:56,439
There's an eerie calm that spreads through the air of this room that we're in, and

81
00:03:56,439 --> 00:04:02,200
we hear a quiet voice speaking low to themselves.

82
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:08,960
Panning around the comfortably furnished room, we see a female deep gnome in a corner

83
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:15,879
sitting on the ground beside a single cot and chair.

84
00:04:15,879 --> 00:04:18,240
Just waiting for one of them to speak.

85
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,439
Who's the gnome?

86
00:04:19,439 --> 00:04:23,840
Do you want to describe what your character looks like?

87
00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:26,800
Maybe not necessarily your name yet.

88
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,759
I sure do.

89
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:31,280
I sure do.

90
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,360
So I am, no, very small.

91
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:42,600
Flaming red hair, done in sort of old-fashioned two-plate style, but for some reason really

92
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,960
seem to like kind of stick out a little bit.

93
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:55,120
So dark, thick red hair, and small, plain, plain kind of clothing.

94
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,920
That's about it.

95
00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:06,439
We hear from down the hall a heavy set of footsteps getting closer to the door, and

96
00:05:06,439 --> 00:05:11,160
from underneath you see torchlight coming closer to the door with these footsteps.

97
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:19,280
You see shadows being cast from underneath, and you hear a lock go, and then the door

98
00:05:19,280 --> 00:05:22,840
swings open.

99
00:05:22,840 --> 00:05:32,200
You see a tall, green-scaled dragonborn walk in, wearing fairly worn splint mail and

100
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,360
just a kind of a raggedy beat-up cloak, look like maybe he's been around the block

101
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:45,000
a couple of times as far as scuffling goes, but he steps in with the torch and checks

102
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:54,120
This end says, are our accommodations suiting you okay?

103
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:59,560
Well you know, it's awfully nice here, but it's gonna, it's, I feel a little, um,

104
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,879
a little restricted, a little like I can't quite express myself the way I would normally

105
00:06:04,879 --> 00:06:05,879
like to.

106
00:06:05,879 --> 00:06:06,879
Okay.

107
00:06:06,879 --> 00:06:14,160
Does this restriction, does it, uh, does it ease your affliction?

108
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,160
My affliction?

109
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:21,000
Yes, the, the voices, you said they were speaking to you.

110
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,520
Oh that's not an affliction, that's just some people who need some help.

111
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:32,040
Some people who need some help, a lot of people need help, and I think I can

112
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,040
help you.

113
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,000
What, what are these voices, what are they saying to you?

114
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:42,440
Well they're, they're, you know, they're, they're calling out, they, they, they

115
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:49,240
need help, so I was going to help them.

116
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:57,120
Well perhaps I'm sure that we can help you help them, so it was, what was your name

117
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,120
again?

118
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,439
Oh it's real nice to meet you, my name is Lipsinki Pip Diggins.

119
00:07:02,439 --> 00:07:07,159
Well Lipsinki, I assure you it has always been my life's goal to rid the world of

120
00:07:07,159 --> 00:07:12,120
the pain and suffering that we all experience throughout life.

121
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:16,160
I can help in the suffering, I just need you to be patient.

122
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,319
These sort of things take time, I hope you understand.

123
00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:24,120
Well I, I do understand wanting to help people, that sounds like a real noble goal,

124
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:30,000
but I don't, I mean, I'd rather not have to stay here.

125
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:35,720
I understand, but perhaps it would be for your own health and for the health of

126
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:40,600
the others in the town, to give it a little bit more time and see if I can't

127
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:46,320
suss out a resolution to what you need.

128
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:53,840
Well, okay, I mean, it don't, it don't appear like I've got a choice.

129
00:07:53,840 --> 00:08:01,200
We all have choices, but unfortunately this is one that you do not get to make.

130
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,920
Well I'm going to be here a little bit longer, I'm going to come and try and

131
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:10,560
help you out.

132
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:17,079
We cut to Flint and Thea, Donnie and their caravan.

133
00:08:17,079 --> 00:08:24,319
You, you three have decided to take some back roads in order to avoid the

134
00:08:24,319 --> 00:08:32,200
deluge of people leaving Waterdeep back towards their various towns and villages.

135
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:36,799
You just find yourselves where the Great Peak Mountains and the Southwood

136
00:08:36,799 --> 00:08:39,799
meet, along the North Point and the Southwood.

137
00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:46,000
And you see up over a hill that you crest, a small town.

138
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:51,159
Looks like it probably holds no more than, say, about a hundred people.

139
00:08:51,159 --> 00:08:56,359
And you come up to a sign that says Blackpool.

140
00:08:56,359 --> 00:08:59,399
This isn't a town that's on the map, which isn't unusual.

141
00:08:59,399 --> 00:09:05,479
Maps are drawn and left for a long period of time before they're redone.

142
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:12,480
But you see it's kind of early morning, sun's just coming up and you see people

143
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:17,080
just looks like they're a very few people kind of getting up and moving

144
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:21,120
about the city as you approach.

145
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,320
You, you ever heard of this one?

146
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,000
Black, Blackpool?

147
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,840
No, it's not ringing any bells.

148
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,560
Wait, is that like that song?

149
00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:32,840
Blackpool shiny in the dead of night?

150
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,200
Like that one.

151
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:39,920
I think I've heard, I heard some instruments and some bars singing it.

152
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,280
Might be singing about this place, I don't know.

153
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,440
Sure, I mean, it doesn't really look like they need any help or anything.

154
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,840
Should we just roll through town or do you want to stop and maybe grab something to eat?

155
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:51,960
Can we grab something to eat?

156
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,600
Yeah, I can know what I'm thinking.

157
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:54,520
Get out of my head.

158
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:55,879
Get out of my head, Flint.

159
00:09:55,879 --> 00:09:59,480
I mean, there's only room in there for one.

160
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,480
If that.

161
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,680
You stroll into town, right into town.

162
00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:05,759
Yeah, I mean, we strut.

163
00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:07,360
No, I think we stroll.

164
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,360
Strolling and strutting beside Clip Clop and Buttercup as they pull the caravan along.

165
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,360
Like we're a big posse.

166
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,080
We're taking the whole road.

167
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,200
Yeah.

168
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,560
Well, it's better to look like you are more than what's there.

169
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:20,240
That's how you scare bears off anyways, right?

170
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,680
Totally.

171
00:10:22,680 --> 00:10:30,399
And a few people kind of look towards you as you enter the town and nod their heads

172
00:10:30,399 --> 00:10:31,960
and go about their way.

173
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:39,320
They look like they're carrying baskets of goods to their various houses or storefronts.

174
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:43,200
Maybe it's so small here, we're not going to have to do the whole, oh, my God, are

175
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:44,720
you seeing Flint?

176
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,720
Oh, thing.

177
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:47,720
It's getting real awkward.

178
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:48,720
Right.

179
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,480
Do any of these baskets of goods look delicious?

180
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,960
Should we follow them to a storefront, Russ?

181
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:55,040
Oh, my God.

182
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,280
Shall we stalk anybody's basket of goodies?

183
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,240
Are you Yoki the bear?

184
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,879
Are you going to steal someone's basket full of goodies?

185
00:11:02,879 --> 00:11:06,399
Maybe not steal, but we can go check out their wares if it looked good.

186
00:11:06,399 --> 00:11:13,399
You definitely see someone, a younger human female carrying a basket of baked goods.

187
00:11:13,399 --> 00:11:16,159
Looks like some various breads and rolls and that sort of thing.

188
00:11:16,159 --> 00:11:21,840
She's walking through the streets kind of away from you as you're entering.

189
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,360
Yeah, I'm going to I'm going to stroll in that direction.

190
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,360
OK, you follow her.

191
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:26,360
We're still in a caravan.

192
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:33,159
And we're just going to slow right down and follow behind this woman and her basket of

193
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:34,159
baked goods.

194
00:11:34,159 --> 00:11:37,159
Well, we don't know where she's going, Amy.

195
00:11:37,159 --> 00:11:42,960
Are you trying to be less obvious about this or are you trying to, like?

196
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,600
I pull up beside her and I say.

197
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,480
She kind of looks aside to you.

198
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:49,480
Can I help you?

199
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:50,480
Morning.

200
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:51,480
Yes, good.

201
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:52,480
Is it still morning?

202
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:53,480
Yes.

203
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:54,480
Too late in the morning?

204
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:55,480
No, it's morning.

205
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:56,600
OK, it's morning.

206
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:57,600
Yeah.

207
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:58,600
Fuck off.

208
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:02,600
Jesus.

209
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,600
You can't enter character conversation and then.

210
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:05,600
Yes, I can.

211
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:06,600
We've done it for you.

212
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,279
Too late for us.

213
00:12:08,279 --> 00:12:11,639
Don't tell me not to now.

214
00:12:11,639 --> 00:12:16,399
We can't help but notice what delicious items you have in your basket there.

215
00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:21,639
Do you have a storefront or a restaurant anywhere that we might be able to find some

216
00:12:21,639 --> 00:12:22,639
something to eat?

217
00:12:22,639 --> 00:12:23,639
Oh, yes.

218
00:12:23,639 --> 00:12:24,639
These.

219
00:12:24,799 --> 00:12:31,279
I was just taking the morning the morning bread down to the to the tavern.

220
00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:33,279
Would you like to follow me?

221
00:12:33,279 --> 00:12:35,120
Oh, why don't you hop up?

222
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,120
That was my permission.

223
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:37,120
This time?

224
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,120
Yes, absolutely.

225
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:43,279
I'm not going to follow you there like a weirdo.

226
00:12:43,279 --> 00:12:45,799
Why don't you why don't you hop up here in the front with me?

227
00:12:45,799 --> 00:12:48,679
Take a load off and we'll give you a lift there.

228
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:49,679
Oh, OK.

229
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:50,679
Like four steps.

230
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,679
Yeah, it's probably like right next door.

231
00:12:54,680 --> 00:13:01,440
She passes you the basket as you hop up and says, well, it's just up the street.

232
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:02,440
It's.

233
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:07,440
We go.

234
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:12,440
She she startled and rolls go everywhere.

235
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,440
I would like to roll to catch them.

236
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,440
Yes, I'd like to roll to catch rolls.

237
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:18,440
Make a dex check.

238
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:19,440
It's a nat 20.

239
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:20,440
I fucking catch everything.

240
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,440
Well, I'm not even going to bother them.

241
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,200
One of them is in my mouth.

242
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,000
I say, all right.

243
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:32,000
That one can be yours as you nimbly grab them all.

244
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:40,000
You peel out down the street as you zip by it.

245
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Oh, and I say, watch this, watch this and reverse, which is difficult to do with

246
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:51,000
a giant horse and a regular size horse in the cart that we have.

247
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:55,000
It's like an animal handling check.

248
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,000
Oh, oh, shit.

249
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,000
Yeah, son.

250
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,000
Twenty seven.

251
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,000
Yeah.

252
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,000
Who am I tonight?

253
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,000
I don't even know.

254
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,000
Kyle, you got a guest star more.

255
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,000
Kyle.

256
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Oh, you're my lucky.

257
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,000
You're my lucky thing.

258
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,000
Yeah, you're staying.

259
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,000
You say, wow, I've never seen horses do anything like that.

260
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,000
Parallel parking.

261
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,000
What is what is happening?

262
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000
This is new technology.

263
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,000
Oh, no, we've just been together a long time.

264
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,000
The horse is a good pat and a carrot.

265
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,000
All right.

266
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Well, just come on in.

267
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,000
You can tie the horses up there.

268
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,000
And what do you got in them?

269
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:29,000
There's a dragon.

270
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:30,000
Oh, yeah.

271
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,000
Yeah.

272
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,000
Don't don't mind him.

273
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,000
He's fine.

274
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,000
That's Donnie.

275
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,000
He'll stay here.

276
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,000
Buddy, you want us to bring anything?

277
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,000
Oh, yeah.

278
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,000
Yeah.

279
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,000
Nice.

280
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,000
Well, I caught one of those rolls that you missed there.

281
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,000
There was just one that went flying airborne right by.

282
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Caught that.

283
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,000
If they got anything on a stick.

284
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,000
And by stick, I mean a bone.

285
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,000
And by bone, I mean if they got a half a cow.

286
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,000
We'll take a look to see if they have a half a cow or not.

287
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,000
OK, perfect.

288
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,000
Great.

289
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,000
I'll just watch the watch the horses here.

290
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,000
Don't don't worry.

291
00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:59,000
Thanks, Donnie.

292
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:00,000
What would we do without you?

293
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,000
Duff.

294
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,000
I don't know.

295
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,000
Probably nothing.

296
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,000
I'm pretty much the one leading this adventure here.

297
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,000
I don't think there's a pretty much about it.

298
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,000
You bet you, buddy.

299
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,000
Yep.

300
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,000
We go into the into the town.

301
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,000
We enter the tavern and it's it's not busy at the moment.

302
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:28,000
You see one male human standing behind the counter, the bar, and three, four, four individuals.

303
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,000
Seven.

304
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:35,000
What's the name of this establishment, Russ?

305
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,000
It's called.

306
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,000
He doesn't write it down.

307
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,000
We ask every time.

308
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,000
The Blackpool Inn.

309
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,000
And Tavern.

310
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Blackpool Inn and Tavern.

311
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:59,000
You enter and you see, like I said, not very busy, but you see four individuals seated around a single table.

312
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:14,000
You see one green dragonborn and another male human, a female halfling and a male dwarf seated around eating their morning meal is what it looks like.

313
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,000
Where's your finest table?

314
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:21,000
The male behind the bars is.

315
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,000
I'm just kidding.

316
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,000
We just need a table.

317
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,000
Just help yourself and bring you a menu.

318
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,000
A little abrasive.

319
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,000
I need to apologize.

320
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,000
A menu would be fantastic.

321
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,000
We just we've been on the road for a while.

322
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Only had this guy to talk to the whole time.

323
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:38,000
Understand.

324
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,000
Understand.

325
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,000
Let me.

326
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,000
Well, I mean, I can bring you a menu.

327
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:50,000
We we got we got rolls and we got oatmeal and whatever they're eating.

328
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,000
Do you have like half a cow?

329
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,000
Any meat?

330
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,000
Any meat?

331
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,000
Oh, yeah.

332
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,000
Yeah, I get you.

333
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:02,000
You want like a whole half a cow, like a roast, like a like a steak, like a.

334
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,000
What are you looking for?

335
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:08,000
I mean, just like a big old chunk of beef would be great.

336
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,000
So you want it cooked?

337
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,000
You know, I think our dragon can kind of take care of that himself.

338
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,000
A dragon.

339
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,000
I think really hard and I go like, Donnie.

340
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:25,000
When I hear that, I'm going to try to say, what kind of name is Donnie for a dragon?

341
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,000
Well, you know, I'm not entirely sure.

342
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,000
He may have named himself.

343
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,000
I'm pretty sure he did pick that name.

344
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,000
Yeah.

345
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,000
He's a pseudo dragon, so.

346
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,000
Well, he was.

347
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,000
He's not anymore.

348
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,000
Yeah.

349
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Well, I guess.

350
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:46,000
Does he stop becoming a pseudo dragon once he goes through the Pokemon evolution?

351
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,000
Depends on how many candies he ate.

352
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Swinging saloon doors and over the top, you see a gold dragon

353
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:57,000
Wormling stick their head through and says, you were trying to call me on the old head device.

354
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000
You didn't answer in the old head device.

355
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:00,000
I was having a nap.

356
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,000
OK, but you didn't have to come in here, everyone.

357
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,000
It's OK.

358
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,000
I assume people are startled.

359
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Some people look taken aback.

360
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,000
Yes.

361
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:09,000
This is Donnie.

362
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,000
You're already in here.

363
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:11,000
Why don't you come join us, Donnie?

364
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,000
Well, it looks a little small here through the door.

365
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,000
I don't know if I'll fit.

366
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:19,000
But if I could get that slab of beef there that you've got in your hands there, good sir.

367
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,000
That would be great.

368
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,000
They'll pay for it.

369
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:22,000
Don't worry.

370
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:28,000
Jared, actually give them the slab of beef and take care of their food for the day.

371
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,000
And I'll square up with you later.

372
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,000
Well, that's very kind of you.

373
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,000
Very kind.

374
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:35,000
Too good.

375
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,000
Too good.

376
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,000
I'm going to take this beef out into the street here.

377
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,000
You know, street beef is the best kind of beef.

378
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,000
It's true.

379
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,000
That's right.

380
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,000
Eat it in the cart, though, OK?

381
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,000
But...

382
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,000
It's super creepy seeing a...

383
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,000
The cart's still on the street, Donnie, so it still counts as street beef.

384
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,000
What if I went and took it up into the trees?

385
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,000
Yeah, OK, but don't go far.

386
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,000
OK.

387
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:04,000
There's a nice big tree that might be able to hold you just about a little bit

388
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,000
south of town.

389
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,000
Perfect.

390
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,000
Perfect.

391
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,000
Thank you, sir.

392
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,000
What was your moniker?

393
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,000
I'm Vorunax.

394
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,000
Vorunax.

395
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,000
Good name.

396
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,000
Good name.

397
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,000
All right.

398
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,000
Well, I'll see you later.

399
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,000
Goodbye Donnie.

400
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,000
That's me.

401
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,000
Don E.

402
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,000
Yeah.

403
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,000
Don E.

404
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,000
Yeah.

405
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,000
Like D-O-N-E.

406
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:29,000
Kind of like how you would almost name a robot.

407
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,000
Yes.

408
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,000
I guess so.

409
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,000
We'll have to ask him about that.

410
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,000
You know, like E is like his middle initial, maybe.

411
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,000
He's like Don E.

412
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:40,000
Fredericks.

413
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,000
Yeah.

414
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:42,000
Wilbur.

415
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,000
I don't know.

416
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,000
What?

417
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,000
Yeah.

418
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,000
That's right.

419
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,000
So, I'm sorry, Vorunax was it?

420
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Vorunax, yes.

421
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:57,000
Y'all are obviously new in town since I heard you saying that you were traveling,

422
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:03,000
and of course, nobody I know here has a gold Wyrmling.

423
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,000
So, welcome to Blackpool, I guess it would be.

424
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,000
What brings you to our fair little town?

425
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,000
We're just trying to make our way back to Waterdeep,

426
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:17,000
and with all the people moving around the lands right now,

427
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,000
we thought we'd stick to the back routes.

428
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,000
That's fair.

429
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,000
Yes, sir.

430
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,000
We have seen a slight influx of travel through the town,

431
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:30,000
and of course, the work that the Decimators did recently,

432
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:36,000
is kind of, I guess, why we've been seeing more people getting back out into the world.

433
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:41,000
What's the, what's kind of the main, like, industry here in Blackpool?

434
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,000
What do you guys got going on in town?

435
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,000
This is a very simple, simple village.

436
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,000
We cultivate what we need to be able to provide for ourselves,

437
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:56,000
and no real main export as far as any merchant would be concerned of.

438
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:00,000
So, but we do have one that comes through every few moons or so,

439
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:06,000
just to make sure the small necessities that one might fancy on a flight,

440
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,000
or after hearing a tale from a traveling bard,

441
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:13,000
those usually wind up filling the bill for most of our citizens here.

442
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,000
And what do you do?

443
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:21,000
Oh, me, I, well, I spend a portion of my life traveling from town to town,

444
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:29,000
protecting those less guarded from any kind of onslaught or incursion from more dastardly beings.

445
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,000
Nothing big, mind you.

446
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:37,000
Just, just, you know, kind of your old backwoods hero.

447
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,000
Used to be, at least.

448
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,000
I've settled down a little bit now.

449
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:48,000
The male dwarf who's dressed in more religious attire, robes, deep brown robes,

450
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:55,000
he stands up, he says, our leader is being modest.

451
00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:05,000
He has saved many of us here and runs the town and keeps all of us safe.

452
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:10,000
Well, I am super interested in finding out how you've saved people.

453
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,000
I love a good story.

454
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:20,000
Oh, well, there are enough stories of saving people to fill up three span worth of time.

455
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,000
I don't mean to hold you here.

456
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:27,000
You know, of course, if it's saving people that you're interested in,

457
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:35,000
we did have someone recently that has become a bit touched and has started hearing voices,

458
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:41,000
and they, we have secluded them away to make sure that they are not any kind of,

459
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,000
don't find themselves injuring anybody in town or even injuring themselves.

460
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,000
We have made sure that they are safe, taken care of,

461
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:53,000
and in a position to where we can help them the best we can.

462
00:22:53,000 --> 00:23:02,000
But one of those things I always try to do is try to make sure that the less fortunate find an end to their suffering.

463
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,000
Are they violent?

464
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:12,000
No, but of course, you know, anybody who hears voices might be compelled to do things.

465
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,000
So better safe than sorry in this situation, I would say.

466
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,000
What kinds of voices?

467
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,000
Touched by who?

468
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:28,000
Well, I'm not sure exactly who, but they speak of somebody needing help,

469
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:36,000
and they were, yeah, became quite ravenous at trying to find a way to help them,

470
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:42,000
although it seemed, it made some of the townsfolk uncomfortable when they were seeking out

471
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,000
where these people were that they could help.

472
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,000
They couldn't seem to find them, and it just, it kept going on and on.

473
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:54,000
And once a couple of the townsfolk come to me, I'm compelled to do something about it to keep them safe.

474
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,000
The priest speaks up again.

475
00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:06,000
He says they were digging holes, ravenously digging holes behind and around people's properties

476
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:12,000
and trying to enter unlawfully through people's houses.

477
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:17,000
You look like you travel with an interesting group.

478
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Perhaps you've seen something of the sort.

479
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:30,000
If they have any magics, it's very possible that they're tapping into something that we just don't understand.

480
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,000
You said you're in the business of helping people.

481
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:37,000
Have you tried to help them help the voices?

482
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,000
I'm helping with as much as I can.

483
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:44,000
I am seeking out and praying to, praying over it and trying to figure out...

484
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,000
No, no, no, no, sorry.

485
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:55,000
I meant like, are you act, like, did you try to find the people that they say need help?

486
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,000
Well, I mean, they were searching them out and they couldn't find them.

487
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,000
And of course, I'm not the one hearing the voices, so...

488
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:11,000
When someone digs into the ground to find voices, there's nothing under the ground.

489
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,000
I turn to Flint and I say, I freaking love a good mystery.

490
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,000
Oh, you and me both.

491
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:21,000
And I mean, if there's voices and people need help, that's kind of our jam.

492
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Yeah, like we like some weird stuff.

493
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:30,000
This is nothing we've ever experienced before, as our leader has said,

494
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:36,000
as you have been traveling the road for some time, it seems.

495
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,000
Did we get your names, by the way?

496
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:42,000
We didn't. We didn't get their names.

497
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,000
I was just merely asking.

498
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,000
But we definitely paid for food for their dragon and offered them some respite in our...

499
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:52,000
Let me be, we've already, you've already been introduced to our leader, Varnax.

500
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:58,000
I am Novrath. This here, he motions to the female halfling, is Rubia.

501
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:07,000
And our good friend over here with the large bushy beard, not quite as bushy as yours,

502
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,000
he motions to the male human, he says, is Ocloth.

503
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:17,000
Ah, fine. I'm Thea.

504
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,000
Flint over here.

505
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,000
And I met Dawn E. earlier, so...

506
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,000
Yes, super nice to meet you all.

507
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,000
That's the crew.

508
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,000
Thea, it's a pleasure to meet you.

509
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,000
And I will be frank with you, I recognize these names.

510
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,000
And of course, I know what you've done in the land.

511
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:43,000
And I think you've achieved something most others would only dream of.

512
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,000
I welcome you to Blackpool.

513
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:50,000
And if you need anything, do not hesitate to ask.

514
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,000
Well, thank you, Varnax. I appreciate that.

515
00:26:53,000 --> 00:27:07,000
Well, perhaps you could be of service if you wanted to speak with the afflicted person, as I've been saying it.

516
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,000
You are more than welcome to make your way down the road.

517
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:16,000
It's about three buildings, and then you'll turn right down the Little Bunny Muddy Alleyway.

518
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,000
Little Muddy Bunny Alleyway.

519
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:27,000
Yes, the Muddy Bunny is a small pet store where if you want to buy a bunny, you can.

520
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,000
I thought for sure it was going to be a strip club.

521
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,000
I'm sorry, Russ, I didn't mean to do that to you.

522
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,000
Stoops disappointing, but okay.

523
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:41,000
Well, thank you, Varnax. I think maybe once we're finished up here and...

524
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,000
Of course.

525
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,000
We'll go. Sorry, do they have a name?

526
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,000
It's Lipsinkie.

527
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:53,000
I think, yes, Lipsinkie Pippdiggins, I think was her name.

528
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,000
Yes.

529
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,000
Pippdiggins?

530
00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:01,000
It's a difficult one to forget. Pippdiggins. Lipsinkie Pippdiggins.

531
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,000
Okay.

532
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,000
I'm just going to shoot a shot in the dark here, but that sounds like a gnomish name.

533
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,000
You would...

534
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,000
Yes.

535
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,000
That is correct.

536
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,000
I haven't had much dealings with gnomes. What about you, Flint?

537
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:26,000
A little bit here and there. They're pretty good artificers, so a lot of the fun things that we need in the Dwarven Settlements, we usually do business with them to get.

538
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,000
Cool.

539
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:32,000
Perhaps tonight, being as you are, are you planning on staying long?

540
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:37,000
I guess it depends how our chat with Lipsinkie goes.

541
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:48,000
Of course. Well, if it goes well, and if you decide to stay the night, the room, as has been said, is yours to stay the night, to rest your weary, tired beings.

542
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:55,000
Would you join us at Vorunax's residence for a meal?

543
00:28:55,000 --> 00:29:02,000
Now, was he already inviting everybody for a meal, or is this now a special thing that's happening just for us?

544
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:09,000
Oh, no, you're absolutely welcome. Thank you for checking my manners, Novrath.

545
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:13,000
I thought you were going to say your day planner.

546
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,000
And my day planner.

547
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,000
He's your personal assistant, let's face it.

548
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,000
Maybe a little bit.

549
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:25,000
Yes, that would be very kind of you.

550
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:34,000
Perhaps we can discuss what you find with Miss Lipsinkie, and if there's anything that we can do, or if you can do, just to help her.

551
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:39,000
We don't wish to see people suffer.

552
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,000
Yes.

553
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,000
Well, for sure. Let's go talk to her now. I'm good.

554
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,000
Sure.

555
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,000
Set down that muddy bunny alleyway there.

556
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,000
Right.

557
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,000
During this, you've completed your meal and bid your adunes.

558
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:55,000
I've left a tip on the table.

559
00:29:55,000 --> 00:30:05,000
Of course, Novrath, Ocklarth, and Rubia bow their heads too, and Novrath says, well, we will see you tonight.

560
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,000
Perfect. We'll see you then.

561
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,000
Take care.

562
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:14,000
As we leave, I was like, remember when I was all like, I hope nobody knows us here?

563
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,000
Yeah.

564
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:20,000
I think it's just going to be a problem wherever we go.

565
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:27,000
Hey, I can change my appearance and my name. I can become a whole different person.

566
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:31,000
I can't really do that. I can change the name, but I mean, beard.

567
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,000
I mean, yeah, shaving that beard is just not an option.

568
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,000
These scars are kind of, I mean, it's a little bit of a telltale thing here.

569
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,000
The scales.

570
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,000
Yeah, it's just not great.

571
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,000
Which, hold on, are we okay here? Are we all right to stop and do this?

572
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:49,000
Because I know, I mean, what you've got going on is kind of time sensitive, so.

573
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:53,000
I mean, as long as we're not here for like four months, I think we're good.

574
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,000
All right. I mean, crazier things have happened, but all right.

575
00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:02,000
As long as we don't get stuck in any mazes and I give her a little nudge.

576
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,000
Throw up in my mouth a little bit.

577
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,000
Should we keep the horses parked here? Parked.

578
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,000
I mean, you did such a good job parking them. I think we got to leave them here.

579
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:15,000
I think so. Yeah, so it seems to be good. I don't think anyone's going to make a fuss.

580
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,000
No, it should be fine.

581
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:23,000
You head out and down the street as the duo leaves the Blackpool Inn and Tavern.

582
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:30,000
Do, does Vorunax want to speak about anything or to anything with any of his cohorts?

583
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:35,000
Yes, I'm going to, I'm going to inform Novareth and O'Clarke.

584
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:41,000
I'm going to tell them, listen, go ahead and do what you need to do to send word to allow them in.

585
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:42,000
Of course.

586
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:47,000
You don't need to follow them. You simply need to just let them do their thing.

587
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:57,000
We eventually will find ourselves in a position to hopefully sway them into helping all of us.

588
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:02,000
If they are as powerful as the new legends have been letting on,

589
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:09,000
then having them on our side would help rid the world of everyone's suffering.

590
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,000
Rubia, you stay with me.

591
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:14,000
It's clear.

592
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,000
We will do so.

593
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,000
Excellent.

594
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,000
O'Clarke and Novareth, leave.

595
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:29,000
And I'm going to hold my hand out in the air and have, say, Gruul, you do your thing, eye in the sky.

596
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,000
Understood?

597
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:40,000
It lowers its head and the pseudo dragon that had landed on your hand flies out the front door and up into the sky.

598
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:54,000
Welcome to the middle.

599
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,000
How's it going?

600
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,000
You like in this episode?

601
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,000
Don't tell us if you're not.

602
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,000
I don't even know what it's saying.

603
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,000
Oh, this is the one with Kyle in it.

604
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,000
I was going to say, which episode is this?

605
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,000
Yay, Kyle.

606
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,000
Kyle's in it.

607
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:08,000
Go listen to Pumparded Podcast because they are very good.

608
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,000
And Kyle is the best.

609
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,000
This is a great review for them.

610
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,000
This is a great review.

611
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,000
You're doing a fantastic job reviewing Pumparded.

612
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,000
This is like a sample review.

613
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:24,000
So if you wanted to know what a good review would sound like, that was it.

614
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:28,000
But what if you did it for our podcast instead of Pumparded?

615
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,000
What we're getting at is we want you to enter our contest.

616
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,000
What are they going to win?

617
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,000
I don't even know.

618
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,000
I'm so excited.

619
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:40,000
You could win a copy of Descent into Avernus.

620
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,000
Whoa.

621
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,000
But wait, there's more.

622
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,000
How can there possibly be more, Russ?

623
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,000
There's always more with us.

624
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:52,000
You also have a chance to win some sweet swag from Dumjins and Dragons.

625
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,000
I can't even see.

626
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,000
What's our podcast called?

627
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,000
Dumjins and Dragons.

628
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,000
So high pitched.

629
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:02,000
Just go to your favorite podcast app and search Dumjins and Dragons.

630
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,000
Make sure you have lots of question marks at the end.

631
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,000
Question mark?

632
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,000
Exclamation point question mark?

633
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,000
I feel like we've gotten a little off key here.

634
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:10,000
We have.

635
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,000
So what Russ is trying to say is that we have a contest going on.

636
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:19,000
And if you rate and review us at Apple Podcasts or on Facebook or Stitcher

637
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,000
or Podchaser.

638
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,000
Yep.

639
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,000
People still using Pod.

640
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:24,000
Podbean?

641
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,000
Yeah, sure.

642
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,000
Sure.

643
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,000
Anywhere you can review us.

644
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:28,000
We will.

645
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,000
And you send us maybe a screenshot of that.

646
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:37,000
We will enter your name into a draw for those awesome things that Russ just squealed about.

647
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:44,000
And now you're probably saying, well, Russ, Amy, Tom, Carla, I've already reviewed you because you guys are amazing.

648
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,000
We get it.

649
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,000
You can maybe update your review.

650
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,000
I'm glad you kept talking.

651
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,000
I thought you were just going to stop after we get it.

652
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,000
I was like, oh, Russ, no.

653
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:55,000
Like too bad.

654
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,000
So sad.

655
00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:00,000
We actually like to punish the people who do this for free.

656
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,000
We get it.

657
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,000
We're awesome.

658
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,000
And we already earned your review.

659
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,000
End of story.

660
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,000
We don't.

661
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:06,000
Oh, you shit.

662
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:10,000
That's not what we mean.

663
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:14,000
Maybe you could just go to a different place and also review us.

664
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,000
That would work.

665
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:19,000
That would be very nice because we still want you to be able to enter the contest.

666
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:25,000
You could also show us that you're subscribed to us and maybe even subscribe somebody else so that they can get entered.

667
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,000
Just go up to somebody's phone.

668
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Subscribe them to Dumbgeons and Dragons.

669
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Did a co-worker leave their phone open on a table and they went into the kitchen?

670
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,000
Or their computer.

671
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,000
If they left a computer open, that's against security protocol.

672
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,000
Are you waiting for the bus?

673
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,000
Just snatch that phone out of their hands.

674
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:45,000
Do your thing.

675
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:46,000
No, don't do that.

676
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,000
Don't do that at all.

677
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,000
I don't think I'm on board for any of that.

678
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,000
Both of those are terrible ideas.

679
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,000
Just close your ears right now.

680
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:52,000
We're just going to go.

681
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,000
You guys keep talking about your gorilla marketing plan.

682
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,000
OK.

683
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,000
So to recap, we're doing a contest.

684
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:04,000
You can win a copy of Descent into Avernus or Dumbgeons and Dragons Swag.

685
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,000
First winner will get to pick which one they want.

686
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,000
Second winner will get the second item.

687
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:17,000
To enter, leave us a rating and review wherever you can leave those like Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Facebook, any of them.

688
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:23,000

Facing Fate, a Dumb Dragons production.

708
00:38:48,000 --> 00:39:04,000
You had made your way down to the muddy bunny alley and are outside of the building that you were given directions to, which appears to be a sort of a small hospital.

709
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:14,000
You enter through the single door and there's a just a very clean wooden counter up at the front of the room.

710
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:24,000
There's a human female standing at the desk behind and she lifts her head as she's working out some paperwork and says, um, can I help you with anything?

711
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:32,000
Yes, we're here to see lip stinky pipsqueakins.

712
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,000
Ah, so close to you. So close.

713
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,000
Lip stinky pip diggans. Yes.

714
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:39,000
That's what I said.

715
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:54,000
She looks at her pad of paper and then has a confused look for a moment and kind of pauses and then looks up and says, sorry, your names were?

716
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,000
I'm Thea. This is Flint.

717
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,000
Flint and Thea. Of course.

718
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:02,000
Varunar said we could come have a chat with lip stinky.

719
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,000
He did. He did. Absolutely. He did.

720
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,000
Um, let me, let me just.

721
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,000
I'm sorry. How do you already have our names on a piece of paper?

722
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:14,000
I don't. And she shows you the paper. There's no names on the paper.

723
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,000
Okay.

724
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:26,000
And she says, just follow me down this way. And she leads you down a long hallway. A few doors along the way and to one near the near the back.

725
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:31,000
So I just, I can't do anything in here, can I? I can't do any of my magics and I can't do anything else.

726
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:35,000
So I'm just sort of stuck in here right now, but I hear you. I'm going to come.

727
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:47,000
Lip stinky, you hear the lock go and the door creak open and the attendant says after you.

728
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:48,000
Hello.

729
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,000
What's this? Do I have some visitors?

730
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:53,000
Yes. Yes. Lip stinky. There's some visitors here to see you.

731
00:40:53,000 --> 00:41:01,000
They've, they've been sent by, by Vorunax to just see if you're interested in chatting, if there's anything anybody can do for you.

732
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,000
Well, geez, I love to chat. Come on in.

733
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:08,000
We know you do. We know you do. I'm just going to close the door here.

734
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:11,000
You just knock and call if you need anything and we'll be right down.

735
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,000
Oh, sure. Thank you.

736
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:16,000
Sure. You have a great day.

737
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:22,000
Well, how do you, I'm lip stinky, but I mean, it's, I don't know if you got my full name, but it's very long.

738
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,000
Can you say it anyway?

739
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,000
Oh, lip stinky Pip Diggins, but you can.

740
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,000
I totally wrote Dickens.

741
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,000
Pip Dickens.

742
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:37,000
But you could, if you want, you could, you can just call me Pip.

743
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:42,000
Pip. That sounds like something I can definitely remember. I have a thing with names.

744
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,000
I'm Thea.

745
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,000
Thea.

746
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,000
And I'm Flint.

747
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:47,000
Flint.

748
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:50,000
And we've heard.

749
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,000
You're Thea and Flint?

750
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:54,000
Yeah.

751
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,000
Yeah.

752
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,000
Well, it's a real pleasure to meet you.

753
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:58,000
You too, Pip.

754
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,000
And you as well.

755
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:06,000
We were, we ran into a couple people in the, the Blackpool Inn and Tavern just down the road.

756
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:12,000
And they told us, well, you've been hearing voices.

757
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,000
Well, you know, it's the strangest thing.

758
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:22,000
Came through town just on, on, on my way headed somewhere and stopped the Blackpool Inn and Tavern and had a drink.

759
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:29,000
And I started to hear some voices that just, just desperately needed help.

760
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:35,000
I don't know about you, but when I hear somebody desperately needing help, then well, I try and help them.

761
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,000
So, so you're, you're not from here?

762
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,000
No, no, just, just traveling through.

763
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,000
So.

764
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,000
Oh, not anymore.

765
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,000
Well, that's the trouble.

766
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,000
I hear these voices.

767
00:42:46,000 --> 00:43:04,000
I head and I start, you know, it's not the voices that I hear aren't, you know, when you talk to folks on the other side, they're not necessarily clear with, well, you just turn left at the money bunny alley and then you'll find what you're looking for.

768
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,000
That isn't really how it works.

769
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:07,000
They're just.

770
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,000
Can I back up like two steps here?

771
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:10,000
Help.

772
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,000
When you say other side, you mean.

773
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,000
You know where the voices come from.

774
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,000
But you mean not, they're no longer living?

775
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:27,000
Well, just the place and they're not people, you know, I don't, it's not like you guys walk in and say, help, I need help.

776
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,000
I just, I hear it in my head.

777
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:41,000
OK, but do you know if these people are alive and need your help and if you don't get them the help, they will die or they're already dead and they're restless souls and they need your help to find peace?

778
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:45,000
Well, now that thing is an awfully good question.

779
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:49,000
All I know is I heard voices and they were calling out for help and I tried to help them.

780
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:58,000
And, well, I tried to find them and people here had been so nice, but then you start kind of going in the yards and digging.

781
00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,000
And they.

782
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:00,000
So this was the digging.

783
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,000
This.

784
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:11,000
Yeah, this was the digging and they got very upset and they put me in here and now I can still hear the voices a little bit, but I can't do any of my magic.

785
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:12,000
Oh, you can do magic.

786
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:13,000
You have magic too.

787
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:14,000
Oh, sure.

788
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:15,000
Yeah.

789
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:16,000
Yeah.

790
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:17,000
Magic.

791
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,000
But not in here.

792
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,000
Can you.

793
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,000
Well, Thea, your reputation precedes you.

794
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:25,000
Can you feel like you can do any magic in here?

795
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:32,000
If he is going to cast Produce Flame and just hold the ball of fire in her hand.

796
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,000
Can I?

797
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:38,000
You are not able to.

798
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:39,000
It's almost like there's.

799
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:40,000
I shake my hand.

800
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:47,000
Yeah, it's almost like there's a spark like when you're trying to light a lighter and it just shoots off the flint, but nothing really.

801
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:52,000
Now, I probably can't detect magic in here either, since that's a spell.

802
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:59,000
But if I'm going to guess, there's definitely been a magic dampening spell placed upon this.

803
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,000
I want to call it a cell, but I guess.

804
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,000
Yeah, let's call it a cell.

805
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,000
I mean, it's a mass cell, but I can't leave.

806
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:08,000
Yeah.

807
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:09,000
Can't do any magic.

808
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:15,000
Is this the first time you've been hearing voices is when you came into town or is this like a frequent thing?

809
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:16,000
Well.

810
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,000
Quirky part of your personality, somewhere in between those two.

811
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:23,000
I've I've I've heard and help voices before, but.

812
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:28,000
This is it's the first time people have tried so hard to stop me.

813
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:32,000
And I don't know why, if you heard about people needing help, wouldn't you want to help them?

814
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,000
I mean, yeah, we we've helped a lot of people.

815
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,000
That's kind of our thing.

816
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:37,000
I know you have.

817
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:38,000
I know.

818
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,000
I know they have.

819
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:44,000
I have to ask what what why the digging is you felt like they were in the ground?

820
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:51,000
Well, it just when I hear the voices, like I said, it's not they're not real clear about what they need.

821
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,000
So I just got to go on my instincts about what the right thing to do is.

822
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,000
And that felt like the right thing to do.

823
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,000
OK.

824
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:06,000
So I don't know what y'all are doing here, but it's it's awfully nice to meet you.

825
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,000
And I guess there's any chance you could help.

826
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:10,000
That'd be great.

827
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:15,000
But it sounds like maybe you're already working with Barnaux, so.

828
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,000
Oh, no.

829
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:23,000
No, the only the only crazy scaly guy I work with is right here and point to Flint.

830
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:24,000
Yeah.

831
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,000
Check this out as he moves his shirt collar off.

832
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:32,000
He's like bare chest in it because that's a normal thing to do.

833
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:35,000
Yeah, you said working with Barnaux.

834
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:36,000
I mean, we just met him.

835
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,000
Actually, they were curious if we could help you.

836
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:47,000
Oh, well, I mean, it'd be awfully nice to have some help.

837
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:50,000
They didn't find a thing about this town.

838
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:51,000
I got here and everyone was real nice.

839
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:55,000
And then as soon as I started the digging, they threw me in here.

840
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:59,000
So sort of sort of mixed messages about how well.

841
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,000
I want to believe I want to believe that they're nice people.

842
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,000
They've seemed very helpful, very, very kind.

843
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:09,000
But I have a hinky feeling about all this.

844
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,000
But I got a good feeling about you, Pip.

845
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,000
Oh, well, that's awfully nice.

846
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,000
I got a good feeling about you guys, too.

847
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:19,000
So what's the plan?

848
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,000
You guys want to go digging?

849
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,000
Well, I guess so.

850
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,000
Do you think they're going to throw us in here, too?

851
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,000
I think I'd like to see them try.

852
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:31,000
OK.

853
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:45,000
Also, maybe if we ask first and explain the situation, they will be more likely to acquiesce to our request of some shrubbery displacement.

854
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:53,000
If we tell them the plan first and maybe say where we're going to dig and then do some restoration afterwards.

855
00:47:54,000 --> 00:48:00,000
Well, we can always ask them about why they threw her directly in jail.

856
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:05,000
All right, Pip, we got to go make a dinner party here.

857
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:06,000
Not that this isn't important.

858
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,000
We're going to get some answers because it's with them.

859
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:09,000
It's with them, folks.

860
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:16,000
So we're going to ask some questions, hopefully learn a thing or two and maybe we'll get you out of here.

861
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:17,000
Well, we'll get you out of here.

862
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:22,000
I sure appreciate you trying.

863
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,000
You leave unless you say otherwise.

864
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,000
We knock and leave.

865
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,000
Oh, I slipped her a roll, by the way.

866
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,000
I totally had one on me.

867
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:33,000
Just in case you're hungry.

868
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:34,000
Well, thank you.

869
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:40,000
You knock and the attendant comes back and says, well, if you're done, come down here.

870
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:46,000
We'll be down in a little while, Lipsinki, with your lunch.

871
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,000
It's probably about that time.

872
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:49,000
Lunch.

873
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,000
We'll be down with your lunch.

874
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:56,000
And she closes the door behind you and escorts you out and says, well, I don't know if I'll be seeing you again.

875
00:48:56,000 --> 00:49:04,000
But just Vorunax has apparently stated that you you are free to come visit Lipsinki.

876
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,000
So hopefully that's hopefully that's good.

877
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,000
Are there people who aren't free to come by?

878
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,000
Well, this is a this is a medical facility.

879
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:16,000
So usually we like to have people who have reasons for being here.

880
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,000
What about just like general well wishers?

881
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,000
Or some looky-loos?

882
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:21,000
Sure.

883
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:29,000
Well, we we try not to encourage looky-loos from coming in and visiting sick patients or patients who require assistance.

884
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,000
That doesn't seem very kosher.

885
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:36,000
But it's anybody is free to come visit.

886
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:43,000
There's just special restrictions placed on Lipsinki at this moment, just until we can figure out what help she needs.

887
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:45,000
OK.

888
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,000
Thank you for your help.

889
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,000
Anytime. Thank you.

890
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,000
Have a great day.

891
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:52,000
So it's lunchtime.

892
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,000
So do you guys just go kill time just looking around?

893
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:56,000
Where are you going?

894
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,000
What are you doing?

895
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,000
Did we ask how long Lipsinki's been in the jail?

896
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,000
I don't think we did, did we?

897
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:04,000
I don't know.

898
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,000
She talked very fast about how she just rode in.

899
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:08,000
She started digging.

900
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:16,000
So I'm curious if there's some of these digs that are maybe still not filled in and we can just casually be strolling by.

901
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:17,000
Sure.

902
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:21,000
You walk through the streets of Blackpool.

903
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:24,000
Thea, you notice several of the people.

904
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:28,000
They smile and nod to you, but several don't.

905
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:36,000
They're just kind of very dead set on where they're looking and don't really pay much attention to you.

906
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:40,000
So I know I wanted to be ignored, but some of these people have like dead fish eyes.

907
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,000
Have you noticed this?

908
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,000
Straight up nothing there.

909
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:48,000
I mean, I hadn't really noticed, but I'll start looking.

910
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:50,000
Try to catch them eye contact.

911
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,000
Are you trying to do that to any of the people?

912
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:59,000
Yeah, I wave at some of the people who obviously aren't looking at me,

913
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:03,000
but I would definitely be within their periphery if they would notice me waving at them.

914
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:07,000
The first person you try and do that to, they don't make a move,

915
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:16,000
but there's a person walking up behind them who waves and nudges the person in front who then looks and waves back at you.

916
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,000
I mean, they look pretty normal.

917
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,000
Puppets.

918
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:26,000
Going through the streets, you make an investigation check, both of you.

919
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:29,000
Oh, there it is.

920
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,000
Did you hear that cling?

921
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,000
That was the cling of defeat.

922
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:36,000
It's an investigation?

923
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:37,000
Yeah.

924
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:38,000
Bye.

925
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:39,000
She's back.

926
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:40,000
With a bonus.

927
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:41,000
She's back.

928
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:46,000
Thea's very focused on the people more so in Blackpool,

929
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:51,000
and Flint, you walk around for probably an hour, maybe two,

930
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:55,000
unless you feel like that's too long for you to be walking around,

931
00:51:55,000 --> 00:52:02,000
and you come across a few holes or a few places where it looks like holes have been dug back over.

932
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,000
So they've been filled in?

933
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:06,000
Yeah, it looks like recently disturbed dirt.

934
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:08,000
Dug back over.

935
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,000
Very interesting way to say that.

936
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:11,000
It was, wasn't it?

937
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,000
Dig up, stupid.

938
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:21,000
Do I notice anything interesting about these freshly disturbed dirt mounds, Russ?

939
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:25,000
Is it a set size? Are they all different? What's the plan here?

940
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:28,000
They're all about the same size.

941
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:33,000
You can't obviously tell how deep they go without disturbing the dirt of your own.

942
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:42,000
They are very close to buildings whenever they are dug, wherever they are dug.

943
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,000
Usually digging close to foundations.

944
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:52,000
A couple near the church, a couple near the tavern,

945
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:56,000
a couple just out in the middle of the street.

946
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:04,000
So no real location specific, but usually nearest, for the most part, to buildings.

947
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:09,000
So I nudge Thea and I say, like, see how a lot of these are near buildings,

948
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:11,000
then we got just a couple in the street.

949
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:16,000
I don't really know, I don't think there's any rhyme or reason here, or at least none that I can tell.

950
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:22,000
Well, if she's digging and she thinks that they're underground and they're near buildings,

951
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,000
maybe there's some people in basements.

952
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,000
Oh, could be. Could be.

953
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:33,000
Oh, and they did say that they thought she was trying to go into the houses, right?

954
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:39,000
Maybe there's some people being kept against their will in somebody's basement.

955
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:40,000
I mean, could be.

956
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,000
Logical is all I get at right now.

957
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:47,000
You check the sundial and it's getting close to dinner time.

958
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:49,000
Is this my portable sundial? Yeah.

959
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:56,000
Well, we should make our way back to our wagon.

960
00:53:56,000 --> 00:54:00,000
And I start calling out for Donnie.

961
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,000
Donnie!

962
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:06,000
This is me screaming in the street.

963
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:10,000
You hear his wings flapping and he lands down beside you.

964
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:12,000
You know, we got like this telepathic connection.

965
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,000
You didn't answer last time.

966
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,000
Yeah, you didn't need to screech in the street.

967
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:19,000
What am I? Just your bird screech?

968
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:22,000
Did I embarrass you? And I give him a big hug.

969
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,000
Did I embarrass you, Donnie?

970
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,000
Always. Always embarrass me.

971
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:28,000
You want to go to a dinner party?

972
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,000
Oh, I like dinner.

973
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:31,000
You can see. Friends again.

974
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,000
Oh yeah, how was that hunk of beef earlier?

975
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:36,000
It was good. I came back for six more.

976
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:38,000
Well, all right then.

977
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,000
Well, we're not paying the gas, so.

978
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,000
Not that you couldn't afford it. You're rolling it.

979
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,000
Well, we'll keep that quiet.

980
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,000
What with that saving the world money?

981
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:51,000
That's what that's all about.

982
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:52,000
They didn't pay us for that.

983
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:55,000
I'm pretty sure they did.

984
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:57,000
How much?

985
00:54:57,000 --> 00:54:58,000
Who?

986
00:54:58,000 --> 00:54:59,000
We'll discuss that at a later point.

987
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:00,000
The world paid?

988
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,000
Yeah.

989
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,000
You know, standard to save the world fee.

990
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:06,000
Standard to save the world fee.

991
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:08,000
Right, right, right. I remember.

992
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:10,000
And I gave all of mine to Nularaaa's family.

993
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,000
Same here.

994
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,000
They collect a hero's tax now.

995
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,000
Yeah.

996
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:19,000
All right, where's this dinner at?

997
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:22,000
It is at Balcox's.

998
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,000
Balcox's house.

999
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,000
Fuck, Vorunax, damn it.

1000
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,000
That's my cousin.

1001
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:29,000
That's my cousin.

1002
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,000
We get confused all the time.

1003
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:32,000
Right.

1004
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:33,000
You go to.

1005
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,000
Do we know where his house is?

1006
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:38,000
I assume they would have told us before we left.

1007
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,000
I assume it's the biggest, nicest one there is.

1008
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,000
It is the largest house.

1009
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,000
It's not too far.

1010
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:45,000
It's a small town.

1011
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:48,000
You make your way there with little to no problem.

1012
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:54,000
And you go up to the front door and it opens as you get there.

1013
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:58,000
And what do they see as they enter Vorunax's house?

1014
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:03,000
Despite the size of the outside, it's fairly modest inside.

1015
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:09,000
You can see like, you know, a bunch of different skins that are adoring the wall

1016
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:14,000
and a couple of mounted heads of different foes that have been slain,

1017
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:18,000
like trolls and kobold here and there.

1018
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:23,000
You know, just kind of like the remnants of an old school hero that are sitting there.

1019
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:27,000
And other than that, it's fairly rustic.

1020
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:33,000
It's a fairly rustic decorated, rustically decorated house.

1021
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:39,000
Thea, as she's entering, changes cast appearance or change appearance

1022
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,000
just because that's how she was raised.

1023
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:48,000
And she puts her hands over her head and her hair is like nicely intricately braided.

1024
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:52,000
And she's just cleaned up a little bit nicer.

1025
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,000
Flynn feels very underdressed now.

1026
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,000
I didn't change my clothes.

1027
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:58,000
Still, though.

1028
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:01,000
I hand you a wet nap for your face.

1029
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:04,000
Do you do the same to his beard?

1030
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:06,000
I don't think I can change other people's beards.

1031
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:09,000
Oh, I guess you can change stuff.

1032
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:11,000
I could braid it for you if you want.

1033
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:13,000
Just real quick outside the front door.

1034
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:14,000
Just real quick.

1035
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:20,000
Now, does Vorunax have not a servant, but somebody who's escorting them?

1036
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,000
Or is it one of your three?

1037
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,000
Well, yeah, I would say Rubia probably met them.

1038
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:29,000
There's definitely like, you know, a fairly standard person

1039
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,000
that opened the door and welcomed in.

1040
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:36,000
But Rubia is the one who would greet them in this entry way.

1041
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:41,000
You see Rubia walk up and says, glad to see you've made it.

1042
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,000
Come with me this way.

1043
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,000
How was your day? How was your afternoon?

1044
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,000
It was very good. It was interesting.

1045
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,000
You have a very nice little town here.

1046
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:53,000
Thank you.

1047
00:57:53,000 --> 00:58:00,000
I think we would pride ourselves on our welcoming demeanor.

1048
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:04,000
I think is a good way to describe it.

1049
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:08,000
As you walk down the halls, it opens into a dining room area.

1050
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:12,000
And you see Vorunax. Is Vorunax in there?

1051
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:14,000
Yeah, Vorunax would be waiting.

1052
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:20,000
He's probably just kicking back and carving a small wooden toy.

1053
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:26,000
Goklarth and Novrath are also there, waiting for dinner and your arrival.

1054
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:30,000
And Novrath stands up as you enter and says, welcome back,

1055
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:33,000
when he comes up and moves to shake your hands.

1056
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,000
He goes in for a hug.

1057
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,000
Oh, goodness.

1058
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:39,000
It's very nice.

1059
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:42,000
Vorunax chuckles at seeing the hug happen.

1060
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:45,000
And he kind of like, you know, shakes his head a little bit, stands up.

1061
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:49,000
You see him place the small toy and the whittling knife on a mantle

1062
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,000
with a bunch of other small wooden figurines

1063
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:57,000
that he's obviously carved over a long life of carving.

1064
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:02,000
When I hug, though, I'm secretly checking for weapons.

1065
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:05,000
You know, feel if there's a sword on there.

1066
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:07,000
Sure. Make it a nice investigation check.

1067
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,000
It's a lot of wiggling. A very wiggly hug.

1068
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:11,000
Nat 20!

1069
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:14,000
I'm fucking wasting it. I'm wasting on my 20.

1070
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:19,000
Yeah, you hug him and you fondle him in the appropriate ways.

1071
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:20,000
Light groping.

1072
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,000
Light groping.

1073
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:23,000
Nothing creepy.

1074
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:28,000
No. You don't feel any weapons on him as you pat him down.

1075
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:33,000
Is this how they hug in Waterdeep?

1076
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:36,000
No, this is a silvery moon hug.

1077
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:37,000
Oh, that's what that is.

1078
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,000
And I turn to Ruby and I'm like, get in here!

1079
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,000
And I do the same to her.

1080
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:45,000
I assume my Nat 20 can go for the three people I plan on hugging.

1081
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,000
Every grope you make from here on out.

1082
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:51,000
Every grope I make.

1083
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:52,000
Okay.

1084
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:55,000
With great power comes great responsibility, Amy.

1085
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:56,000
Right?

1086
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,000
I think I'm doing it. I think I'm doing it.

1087
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:07,000
You hug Ruby and you don't feel any weapons on her as you continue to grope.

1088
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,000
She leans into it, doesn't she? Yeah, she does.

1089
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:14,000
I go for polite handshakes all around.

1090
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:17,000
BAlydince. That's what this is about.

1091
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:21,000
You go to hug Ocklarth.

1092
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:29,000
He reluctantly approaches you and says, this is how it's going to be.

1093
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:34,000
Which is the number one thing I love hearing before I give a hug.

1094
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:38,000
You don't feel any weapons. You do feel like a notepad in a pocket.

1095
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,000
Is that a notepad in your pocket?

1096
01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:45,000
Yes. I keep notes for Vorunax.

1097
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:47,000
I was the scribe once.

1098
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:49,000
And then I go to Vorunax. Get in here!

1099
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:52,000
A hero's hug is always welcome.

1100
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:58,000
And I'll accept that hug while being cognizant of my own being.

1101
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:02,000
Can we rock back and forth a little bit?

1102
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:04,000
You know, when we're both really into it.

1103
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:06,000
Like how Tom and I hug.

1104
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,000
Right?

1105
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:10,000
I hug you like I hug Tom.

1106
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:15,000
Out of game. Is there anything you are trying to hide that you would need a role to hide?

1107
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:17,000
Because my hands will feel everything.

1108
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:21,000
I'm just wanting to know, am I being checked?

1109
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,000
Because I've been around the block.

1110
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:25,000
Go insight then.

1111
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:33,000
Your I've been around the block means a way different thing than what I grew up saying been around the block means.

1112
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,000
Yeah. That's fair.

1113
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,000
That's fair.

1114
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:39,000
It's not my first rodeo.

1115
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:41,000
I only got a five, so yeah.

1116
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:47,000
I mean, you're just in a passionate embrace at this point.

1117
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,000
So, ah, yes.

1118
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:52,000
A hero's hug and I guess a hero's handshake.

1119
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:56,000
And I shake hands with Flint.

1120
01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:58,000
And say please, please have a seat.

1121
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:01,000
Food will be brought momentarily, of course.

1122
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,000
Unless you're ravenous at the moment.

1123
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:09,000
And I think we could even kick open the back doors.

1124
01:02:09,000 --> 01:02:11,000
Kick open the back doors, Novrath.

1125
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:14,000
And let in Don E.

1126
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,000
Oh, yes, of course, of course, of course.

1127
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:19,000
And he goes up to the back doors.

1128
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:23,000
I didn't realize Don E. didn't come in through the front door with us.

1129
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:25,000
We didn't establish so.

1130
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,000
Might have been too small for him.

1131
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:31,000
He pulls some curtains back in the dining area.

1132
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:34,000
And gives a swift kick to the doors.

1133
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:36,000
They stick a little bit.

1134
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,000
And he jimmies them open.

1135
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:40,000
And he looks around.

1136
01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:44,000
And then you hear Don E. just land at the door.

1137
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,000
Did he land fist down?

1138
01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:49,000
Iron Man pose.

1139
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:52,000
This is a great drive-through he got here.

1140
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:54,000
Got any more of that beef?

1141
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,000
Well, O'Clarke, by all means.

1142
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,000
Go take care of this for us.

1143
01:02:58,000 --> 01:02:59,000
Uh, yeah.

1144
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:00,000
Right.

1145
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,000
Just come this way.

1146
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:07,000
We got actually the freshest of meat out behind in the pastures.

1147
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:09,000
Is that what you're looking for?

1148
01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:10,000
Oh, yeah, bud.

1149
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:11,000
I haven't had a fresh cat.

1150
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:14,000
They didn't let me eat the fresh ones.

1151
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:18,000
Well, no, we were just heading through a town, Don E.

1152
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:20,000
And that was their livelihood.

1153
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:21,000
Okay, well, they're offering this one.

1154
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:22,000
Is that okay?

1155
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:23,000
Yeah, they're offering.

1156
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:24,000
Yeah, you go for it.

1157
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:26,000
One we can sacrifice without.

1158
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:27,000
You will be fine.

1159
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:28,000
You're my new favorite buddy.

1160
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:29,000
Did you hear him say one?

1161
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:30,000
Yep.

1162
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:32,000
I'll see you in a little bit.

1163
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:33,000
Okay.

1164
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:34,000
Don't go too far.

1165
01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:37,000
O'Clarke leads Don E. out behind the building.

1166
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,000
And you kind of peek out.

1167
01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:42,000
And yeah, there's a pasture that kind of goes up and into the forest.

1168
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,000
And there's cows.

1169
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:45,000
Forest cows.

1170
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:49,000
Just going to look longingly as Don E. flies away and be like,

1171
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:52,000
I hope someday I can fly like that.

1172
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:56,000
They're the luckier of the dragons.

1173
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:57,000
Oh, well.

1174
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:00,000
Well, speaking of dragons,

1175
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:03,000
it's not every day you have heroes such as yourself

1176
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:08,000
with such a what's the word I'm looking for

1177
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:12,000
that I legitimately can't think of.

1178
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:13,000
You'll get it.

1179
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:14,000
It's all right.

1180
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:17,000
Awkward stature?

1181
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:18,000
Stature would be the word.

1182
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:19,000
I wouldn't say awkward.

1183
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:24,000
You've again accomplished something that I wouldn't even dream of.

1184
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:29,000
So, pray tell, now that you've done such a great good in the world,

1185
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,000
what's next?

1186
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:33,000
That's a really good question.

1187
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:34,000
That's the question.

1188
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:35,000
Yeah.

1189
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:39,000
Well, we're going to get Flint taken care of here.

1190
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:43,000
That's high up on that to-do list.

1191
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:47,000
What seems to be the thing that you need taken care of, Flint?

1192
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:50,000
See, I've got a...

1193
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:56,000
Well, I've got like a second spirit of sorts living in me

1194
01:04:56,000 --> 01:05:02,000
who's a dragonborn and he's slowly kind of taking over my body.

1195
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:03,000
Huh.

1196
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:04,000
Yeah.

1197
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:06,000
See these scales?

1198
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:08,000
And he kind of gives a sneak peek again.

1199
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:11,000
Whips his shirt open for the second time.

1200
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,000
What color are the scales?

1201
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:15,000
Come on, it's a naked dwarf, come on.

1202
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:16,000
Blue.

1203
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:18,000
Okay, excellent.

1204
01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:23,000
Some may see it as a curse, others as a boon.

1205
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:25,000
I don't know how you take it,

1206
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:27,000
but I guess since you're trying to rid yourself of it,

1207
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:28,000
it's not something you desire.

1208
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:31,000
Well, it's not that I'm trying to rid myself of it, per se.

1209
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:37,000
I'm trying to find a home for Bort who's alongside with me here.

1210
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:39,000
Oh, and we love Bort.

1211
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:42,000
Don't get us wrong, but we don't want to lose Flint to him.

1212
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:43,000
Right.

1213
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:45,000
It's one or the other.

1214
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:51,000
Okay, but so you would be good without it's Bort?

1215
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:52,000
It is Bort, yes.

1216
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:57,000
So you would be good without Bort if you could keep Flint?

1217
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:58,000
Yeah.

1218
01:05:58,000 --> 01:05:59,000
Yes.

1219
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:02,000
But we don't want to do Bort dirty.

1220
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:05,000
No, the idea is to find a vessel for him.

1221
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:06,000
He was sacrificed.

1222
01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:11,000
He was sacrificed for something.

1223
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:14,000
For something.

1224
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:15,000
That's not to get into it.

1225
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:17,000
I mean, that's usually what some sacrifices are for.

1226
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:19,000
Yeah, it was for a good cause.

1227
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:21,000
It sounds very...

1228
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:23,000
Nova S. speaks up and says,

1229
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:28,000
it sounds very interesting, this sacrifice,

1230
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:33,000
and how it hopped into your friend Flint here, his soul.

1231
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:34,000
Yeah, that was messed up.

1232
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:35,000
We weren't expecting that.

1233
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:39,000
No, that doesn't sound like anything anybody should expect.

1234
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:44,000
Souls are meant to live comfortably

1235
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:48,000
after they depart and move on.

1236
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:51,000
Maybe it's because we carried his head around for a while.

1237
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:53,000
I don't really know.

1238
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:59,000
So you're heroes, and I'm actually just not even going to touch that one.

1239
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:01,000
Yeah, that's best.

1240
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:02,000
It's very foggy.

1241
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:04,000
Carrying a head around, okay.

1242
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:08,000
So is there any malicious intent from Bort?

1243
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:12,000
Was this person your friend, your compatriot?

1244
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:14,000
What role did they play?

1245
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:17,000
He played the role of sacrifice.

1246
01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:23,000
We got sent to another realm,

1247
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:27,000
and he was part of getting us back to our own.

1248
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:29,000
Ah.

1249
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:32,000
So a return home and Bort was the ticket.

1250
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:34,000
Essentially, yeah.

1251
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:37,000
Wait, didn't we use him to get into a cave?

1252
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:40,000
Where we had to get the...

1253
01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:42,000
Library of the Dead.

1254
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:44,000
Library, yeah.

1255
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,000
This is all from three years ago.

1256
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:48,000
So we're flying off bad memory.

1257
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:51,000
I can't believe you had Bort for so long.

1258
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:52,000
So long.

1259
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:57,000
So Bort is the reason why we got back,

1260
01:07:57,000 --> 01:08:00,000
and we just want to do right by both Flint and Bort.

1261
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:05,000
As you're discussing, a couple attendants

1262
01:08:05,000 --> 01:08:08,000
and the chef come into the room,

1263
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:12,000
and they lay down food at each of the table settings,

1264
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:16,000
and it's a delicious, delicious tenderloin.

1265
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:19,000
Some mini new potatoes.

1266
01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:21,000
Are they fingerling potatoes?

1267
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:22,000
Fingerling potatoes.

1268
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:23,000
Love a gift.

1269
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:28,000
A nice spread of fresh seasonal vegetables.

1270
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:30,000
Ooh.

1271
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:32,000
What's in season?

1272
01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:33,000
Squash.

1273
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:34,000
Ooh.

1274
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:35,000
And carrots.

1275
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,000
That's two carbs on my plate.

1276
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,000
I'm in heaven.

1277
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:44,000
And they lay down and do a half bow towards you

1278
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,000
and to Vorunax and then exit the room.

1279
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:50,000
Well, this just looks delicious.

1280
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:51,000
Please.

1281
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:55,000
I hope you do enjoy the fruits of our land's labor.

1282
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:57,000
Our town doesn't have much to offer,

1283
01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:01,000
but I guess a culinary twist is about as far as we go

1284
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:03,000
as getting exotic.

1285
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:06,000
So this town.

1286
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:10,000
Super nice.

1287
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:12,000
Thank you.

1288
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:18,000
And we met with, um, Lip, Lippy, Lip, Pippy?

1289
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:19,000
Lipsinki.

1290
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:20,000
Pip Diggins.

1291
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:21,000
Yes.

1292
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:24,000
And she's just a super sweetie.

1293
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:26,000
Oh yes, delightful personality.

1294
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:30,000
And she had nothing but nice things to say

1295
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:32,000
about everyone here at the town.

1296
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:33,000
Glad to hear that.

1297
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:39,000
And she realizes that she may have been in the wrong

1298
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:42,000
for digging.

1299
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:47,000
And we went around and we saw the numerous holes.

1300
01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:48,000
Yeah, there was a lot of them.

1301
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:49,000
Yeah, there were.

1302
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,000
She's industrious.

1303
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:56,000
Yes, made quite some ground, I guess you would say.

1304
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:59,000
Oh, that's a good one.

1305
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:03,000
And she is very sorry that she did that.

1306
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:08,000
But I'm wondering if, and in all of our travels,

1307
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:12,000
we have seen some strange stuff.

1308
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:14,000
I'm talking brains in jars.

1309
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,000
Oh yeah, that was a good one.

1310
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:18,000
Mass armies of the undead.

1311
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:23,000
Just like so much stuff that the idea of a little gnome

1312
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:27,000
such as herself hearing voices telling her

1313
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:32,000
that they need help is just not very far-fetched.

1314
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:36,000
And I'm curious because you are obviously someone

1315
01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:40,000
who has number one fantastic hospitality services,

1316
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:46,000
but also is very, um, you've said so yourself.

1317
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:49,000
You're very keen on helping others.

1318
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:53,000
Being a hero in the past, you've said,

1319
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:56,000
that maybe you could find it in your heart

1320
01:10:56,000 --> 01:11:06,000
to allow us to help Lipsinki to quell these voices.

1321
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:09,000
Because I do believe that they are going to serve a purpose.

1322
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:12,000
And you might even find there's something going on

1323
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:16,000
in your small town you had no idea about.

1324
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:19,000
Throughout your long talk there.

1325
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:20,000
It was so long.

1326
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:23,000
Thank you for letting me monologue.

1327
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:26,000
Throughout that, you've noticed a couple of the attendants

1328
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,000
come in and close up the doors.

1329
01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:31,000
There's a slight breeze coming in through the back doors

1330
01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:32,000
where Donnie was.

1331
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:33,000
They close the doors.

1332
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,000
And as they exit with the food,

1333
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:39,000
they close the doors behind you to the main dining area.

1334
01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:40,000
So what do you say?

1335
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:42,000
And I quickly, just before he answers,

1336
01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:45,000
I just shout out in my mind, Donnie, okay?

1337
01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:46,000
Just checking on him.

1338
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,000
He's like, he's like a kid brother

1339
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,000
that now we have to look after them.

1340
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:53,000
You hear him back, he's like, nom, nom, nom, nom.

1341
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:55,000
Eating the big cow.

1342
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:56,000
It's very tasty.

1343
01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:58,000
Don't you fall asleep.

1344
01:11:58,000 --> 01:11:59,000
Okay.

1345
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:00,000
I won't fall asleep.

1346
01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:01,000
Things might get weird.

1347
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:02,000
We might need you.

1348
01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:03,000
Don't you fall asleep.

1349
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:04,000
What are they going to do?

1350
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:07,000
You keeping your clothes on?

1351
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:09,000
I don't answer.

1352
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:14,000
It's going to be a party later.

1353
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,000
So what do you say?

1354
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:21,000
Well, if you're thinking that you could help out Lipsinki,

1355
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:26,000
then who am I to stand in the way of that?

1356
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:30,000
And seeing you three stop an army of the undead,

1357
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:32,000
that would be a sight.

1358
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:35,000
An army of the undead would be a sight to behold.

1359
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:37,000
You defeating them, of course.

1360
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:41,000
But yes, yes.

1361
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:43,000
Did I tell you what?

1362
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:46,000
If you want to poke around

1363
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,000
and see if there's maybe something

1364
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,000
that I don't know about my own town,

1365
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:52,000
I would welcome the opportunity

1366
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:56,000
for you to get to the bottom of things, I guess,

1367
01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:57,000
it would be.

1368
01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:58,000
Well, you know what?

1369
01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:00,000
It's kind of funny you said that

1370
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:03,000
because we would really like to get to the bottom

1371
01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:06,000
of some of the buildings.

1372
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:07,000
Okay.

1373
01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:10,000
If you could give us some carte blanche

1374
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:13,000
as to just going in and checking out some basements.

1375
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:15,000
I mean, we promised to be

1376
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:17,000
and have the utmost respect

1377
01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:19,000
of people's personal space and private things.

1378
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:20,000
We're not rummagers.

1379
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:22,000
We're not looking to steal from you.

1380
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:24,000
Donnie just reminded us that

1381
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:27,000
apparently we got money that we gave away.

1382
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:28,000
I don't know.

1383
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:30,000
We don't need anything from you.

1384
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:32,000
But we would like to help.

1385
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,000
Money is not a real object to me either.

1386
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:37,000
I've made my way through my younger years

1387
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:39,000
by offering services to town

1388
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:41,000
for goods and services.

1389
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:43,000
Coin was not something I was ever after.

1390
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:45,000
So giving your coin away,

1391
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:47,000
that's respectable.

1392
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:48,000
Thank you.

1393
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:49,000
And if you would like to,

1394
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:51,000
if it helps you even further,

1395
01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:53,000
I'd like to know your hypothesis.

1396
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:54,000
Why the bottom of buildings?

1397
01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:57,000
What is it about basements

1398
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:59,000
or anything underneath the buildings?

1399
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:00,000
What are you thinking?

1400
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:01,000
I'm just curious.

1401
01:14:01,000 --> 01:14:03,000
We were just thinking that

1402
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:07,000
why else was Lipsinki digging holes?

1403
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:09,000
She needed to get down somewhere,

1404
01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:11,000
obviously, right?

1405
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:13,000
I guess.

1406
01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:15,000
Seems like it'd be easier to just try to

1407
01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:16,000
get in a house,

1408
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,000
but perhaps there was at least enough sense

1409
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:20,000
in her head to

1410
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:22,000
not just barge into people's domiciles.

1411
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,000
But by all means,

1412
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:26,000
I tell you what,

1413
01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:27,000
how about we make it easy for you?

1414
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:30,000
If Lipsinki seems to know where these voices are coming from,

1415
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:33,000
perhaps Lipsinki can guide you to them.

1416
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:35,000
And maybe even give you a hand

1417
01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:39,000
eliminating this issue that my town has.

1418
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:42,000
That would be more than kind.

1419
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:45,000
Well, then by all means,

1420
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:47,000
is there anything else I can offer you for this evening?

1421
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:48,000
Would you like to,

1422
01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:50,000
do I need to send word now?

1423
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,000
I mean, it seems like it'd be pretty late to

1424
01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:55,000
trouble my town's folk with this.

1425
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:57,000
Perhaps you could wait until the morning,

1426
01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:59,000
get a nice fresh start on it.

1427
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:02,000
I think the morning sounds very fair.

1428
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,000
Yeah.

1429
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:05,000
Perfect.

1430
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:07,000
Well then, I will send out word

1431
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:08,000
throughout the town and

1432
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:09,000
send it to the appropriate people

1433
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:10,000
and let them know that

1434
01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:12,000
the heroes of Faerun,

1435
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:14,000
the decimators of dragons,

1436
01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:16,000
are here to help our fair little haven.

1437
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:18,000
And I'm sure they would be more than welcoming

1438
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,000
to have you come in

1439
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,000
and squash out whatever bugs seem to be crawling around.

1440
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:25,000
Gross.

1441
01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:27,000
Alright.

1442
01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:29,000
Oh God, I hope it's not bugs.

1443
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:31,000
Oh no.

1444
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:33,000
Dessert?

1445
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,000
Yes, absolutely.

1446
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,000
And I clap for dessert and it comes.

1447
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:57,000

The pink robe has come off.

1461
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:19,000
I'm getting serious.

1462
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:21,000
I'm ready to get serious.

1463
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:23,000
Is it business when the pink robe is off

1464
01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:26,000
or when the pink robe is on?

1465
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:27,000
Wait a minute.

1466
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:28,000
Is it my business robe?

1467
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:29,000
I don't know.

1468
01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:31,000
I might need more than one robe.

1469
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:32,000
What was your name again?

1470
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:34,000
Oh, it's real nice to meet you,

1471
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:35,000
real nice to meet you.

1472
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:37,000
My name is Lip Sinky Pip Diggins.

1473
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:39,000
Ah.

1474
01:16:39,000 --> 01:16:41,000
Lip Sinky.

1475
01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:43,000
Well, Lip Sinky,

1476
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:44,000
I assure you.

1477
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:47,000
I need to write it down.

1478
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:48,000
Keep it together.

1479
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:49,000
I can't.

1480
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:50,000
It's not your scene.

1481
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:51,000
That's amazing.

1482
01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:52,000
I'm sorry.

1483
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:54,000
You find yourself at the,

1484
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:56,000
oh, son of a bitch.

1485
01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:58,000
Ah, at the son of a bitch.

1486
01:16:58,000 --> 01:16:59,000
I've been there and forever.

1487
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:02,000
Best pub.

1488
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:05,000
What brings you to our fair little town?

1489
01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:07,000
Trying to make our way back to,

1490
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:08,000
what was it, Russ?

1491
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:10,000
Never went too water deep.

1492
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:11,000
Never water deep.

1493
01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:12,000
Water deep.

1494
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:13,000
Always water deep.

1495
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:14,000
Always water deep, Tom.

1496
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:15,000
It could have been different.

1497
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:17,000
I'm going to write down it's always water deep.

1498
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:18,000
It's always water deep.

1499
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:19,000
Go.

1500
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:20,000
Sorry.

1501
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:22,000
Do they have a name?

1502
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:23,000
Carla.

1503
01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:26,000
No, no, it's not Carla.

1504
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:28,000
Strange name.

1505
