[27.0s] Spooky ghost. And Tom Laird.

[53.0s] We did it.
[54.0s] We made plans and followed through. It doesn't sound like me.
[57.0s] We put it on the calendar. That's what we did.
[59.0s] Well, if it's on the calendar.
[60.0s] Rolled it into the schedule.
[62.0s] If you are listening to this in the future, I hope everything's going well in the future.

[80.0s] Like Jess who says do it. It's hecking good.
[82.0s] It's hecking good.
[83.0s] It's hecking good.
[84.0s] Quick, no pressure. Quick, good or bad testimonials.
[92.0s] Mostly good.
[95.0s] I mean, throw some criticism in there. I can take it today on my last day of school.
[100.0s] I'm going to shit about anything right now.
[103.0s] What a long con Cat Waterflame would be pulling on us.
[108.0s] If she gave us a just a harsh, brutal review right now.
[113.0s] Pour us apart.
[114.0s] Just pulling one name.
[116.0s] But Cat has been with us like day one since.
[119.0s] Yeah, like for so long.
[121.0s] Throw it on in the background and get nothing done.
[123.0s] Too much fun.
[124.0s] That's from Pauly.
[125.0s] We're a bit distracted.
[126.0s] LA, great community with lots of subjects to discuss.
[129.0s] Like gardening is one of them.
[131.0s] Gardening, pets, tattoos.
[133.0s] Books.
[134.0s] Food.
[135.0s] Books, music.
[136.0s] Cat, the only problem I have with this podcast is the fact that it ends too soon.
[141.0s] What are you talking about?
[143.0s] It's always and forever.
[145.0s] Things are going on.
[146.0s] Yeah, just behind the scenes right now.
[149.0s] Do you want us to save that one at layout, Sam?
[152.0s] Not enough pregnancies.
[154.0s] You know, we're doing what we can.
[156.0s] I mean, we have to take the good and the bad comments.
[159.0s] Also, though, we've got to put that...
[160.0s] Destructive criticism.
[161.0s] We've got to start putting that back on patrons, though,
[163.0s] because that ship has sailed for me.
[164.0s] And Carla, I don't know if you're interested.
[166.0s] No, it's...
[167.0s] Yeah.
[168.0s] It's too late for me.
[170.0s] Sam, oh my God, you're so funny.
[172.0s] Yeah, we just have to learn how to roll for it.
[174.0s] That's right.
[175.0s] Potatoes.
[176.0s] Oh, yes.
[177.0s] Thank you, Ruben.
[178.0s] You're right.
[179.0s] That is a great comment.
[180.0s] The racking says super supportive.
[181.0s] It's true.
[182.0s] It's nice, but also funny and also sweet.
[186.0s] Thank you for coming to the live show where we just make ourselves feel better.
[189.0s] So thank you for that.
[191.0s] Totally.
[192.0s] Not local, though.
[193.0s] Well, we're trying.
[194.0s] We're trying to be places.
[196.0s] Maybe someday.
[197.0s] You can't be local for everyone.
[199.0s] That's true.
[200.0s] Unless your version of local means something different.
[204.0s] It's a world.
[205.0s] It's a world.
[206.0s] We're citizens of the world.
[207.0s] So we're local for everybody, obviously.
[209.0s] Global D&D.
[210.0s] So thank you for being here.
[212.0s] Hopefully you come join us.
[213.0s] That would be lovely.
[214.0s] And you get to meet all these lovely people.
[217.0s] But as we do with improv shows, we...
[221.0s] Don't know what's happening.
[222.0s] Don't know what's happening.
[223.0s] And that's where we need not only the chat to tell us how great they think this community
[231.0s] is, but also tell us how to play this game.
[234.0s] So I've asked everybody to get dice ready.
[237.0s] You have your dice ready.
[239.0s] So we're going to roll for characters.
[241.0s] We did this once before, and it was a whole heck of a lot of fun.
[245.0s] And we're going to do it again.
[247.0s] So let's start.
[249.0s] Who wants to go first?
[251.0s] Not it.
[252.0s] Just said Carla.
[253.0s] Carla's going first.
[254.0s] I like it when you take charge.
[256.0s] It's really sexy.
[257.0s] One, two, three, four, five, six.
[258.0s] We've got six names on this list.
[260.0s] So we've got six names on this list.
[262.0s] We've got, of course, all of the characters that Carla has played.
[265.0s] And if I've forgotten any, there's just too many to list.
[268.0s] And that's not my problem.
[269.0s] Won't fit in a D6.
[270.0s] There is no D7.
[271.0s] That's right.
[272.0s] So we need a D6.
[273.0s] From the first one that has rolled, Pauly beat us to it.
[277.0s] So we got also a four.
[279.0s] Two fours.
[280.0s] It's got to be it.
[281.0s] Lipsinki was one.
[282.0s] Nularaaaa was two.
[283.0s] Lex was three.
[284.0s] Elia is four.
[286.0s] Yay.
[287.0s] Which level?
[289.0s] Like a level 20?
[290.0s] You want a level 20, Elia?
[292.0s] So 20.
[293.0s] Wait, just hold on.
[294.0s] Your Elia.
[295.0s] We're just going to bucket it, and we're just going to say you're Elia for now.
[298.0s] We'll figure out high or low later.
[300.0s] Let's see where everybody comes in.
[301.0s] I have to adjust my thing.
[302.0s] High or low?
[303.0s] Fuck.
[304.0s] Yeah, that's right.
[305.0s] Let's go around my view here and go to Tom.
[308.0s] Tom, we've got four.
[309.0s] So we need a D4 rolled for Tom.
[312.0s] Also, I think Tom needs to kind of pick up the slack a little bit more.
[315.0s] If like Karla and I have like six characters here and he's rolling on four.
[320.0s] Excuse me, I don't hear you DMing a side scroller game for Patreon.
[325.0s] No, you don't.
[327.0s] Forever appreciate you for that.
[331.0s] Yummy.
[332.0s] I like how we just had it locked in.
[334.0s] You did.
[335.0s] You were just waiting for the day.
[336.0s] Oh, if she comments about my character around.
[339.0s] He had that one in the tank since 2019.
[342.0s] Oh, and Ruben, he's got your back, Tom.
[345.0s] Literally plays two characters at the same time.
[348.0s] Forgets which one he's playing all the time.
[350.0s] Fair point.
[351.0s] Who knows who he's playing at the same time?
[353.0s] But it looked like a two was first through and then two ones, which put them together.
[359.0s] It's also a two.
[361.0s] So we have Perseus.
[362.0s] Perseus.
[363.0s] We also had Flint, Moot, and of course, a fan favorite, Meredith Graham.
[367.0s] It's still his favorite character to play.
[370.0s] The character I do a stupid voice for for a one-off, of course.
[375.0s] Tom, you'll do it for like 10 minutes.
[377.0s] It's fine.
[378.0s] There's no way that character's coming back.
[380.0s] Ah, yes.
[382.0s] That makes me happy.
[383.0s] I love Perseus.
[384.0s] We'll see about that, Amy.
[385.0s] There it is.
[386.0s] See, that's the one.
[387.0s] He goes right into it.
[388.0s] It's good.
[389.0s] It's natural.
[390.0s] Season three, here we come.
[391.0s] Don't forget how.
[392.0s] Let's have Tom Talks at home.
[394.0s] Okay, Amy, also four options.
[397.0s] So we need a D4.
[400.0s] D4.
[401.0s] For Amy, we got a three.
[402.0s] Three's my favorite number.
[403.0s] Oh, wow.
[404.0s] There we go.
[405.0s] So this is keeping it sort of in a wheelhouse.
[408.0s] Three was fast.
[409.0s] So we've got Nighthunter.
[411.0s] Nighthunter at three.
[413.0s] Boastring was four.
[415.0s] If you want to choose your favorite between Cat and L.A.
[418.0s] Why can't you?
[420.0s] You can't make me choose.
[423.0s] No, we were pushed through there.
[426.0s] Which one do you guys want more?
[428.0s] Just like throw a name out there.
[429.0s] Nighthunter.
[430.0s] There we go.
[431.0s] I meant multiple people, but okay, Nighthunter.
[434.0s] Yep.
[435.0s] I'm just being silly, okay?
[438.0s] Shut up, Sam.
[439.0s] I can't play Carl.
[441.0s] Can't happen.
[442.0s] Can't play Carl.
[443.0s] Maybe we are on a honeymoon.
[447.0s] Perseus, just third wave it along.
[450.0s] There we go.
[451.0s] We've got Elia.
[452.0s] We've got Nighthunter.
[453.0s] We've got Perseus.
[454.0s] So Perseus only had one iteration.
[457.0s] So I feel like we go low for those ones, right?
[460.0s] Yeah, makes sense.
[461.0s] Because Perseus wasn't incredibly high.
[463.0s] Super high level.
[464.0s] He was like mid-teens, early teens.
[467.0s] I mean, I see level 16.
[469.0s] Oh, wow.
[470.0s] Okay, then Elia and Nighthunter.
[472.0s] Do what you will.
[473.0s] You pick.
[474.0s] Also live show, so let's just like.
[476.0s] Let's just.
[477.0s] Oh yeah, that's true.
[478.0s] I mean, you're probably not even going to look at your character sheet from here on
[480.0s] out.
[481.0s] Also true.
[482.0s] I don't get to fight, but I'm a fighter.
[484.0s] All right, we need, where do we want to start?
[487.0s] Let's start with a location.
[489.0s] Where is this happening?
[491.0s] We don't yet know that it's the honeymoon.
[493.0s] We could get there.
[494.0s] Might not.
[495.0s] We're not really on our honeymoon when we're level 10.
[497.0s] No, that's true.
[498.0s] No, we're still flirting.
[500.0s] We're just progressing.
[501.0s] We're just progressing through things.
[503.0s] Amy, pick a location.
[504.0s] What's jumping out to you?
[505.0s] What's jumping out to me?
[506.0s] Yeah.
[507.0s] Please don't make me decide.
[508.0s] Roll the dice.
[509.0s] Okay.
[510.0s] What number?
[511.0s] I'm going to roll a D6.
[513.0s] All right.
[514.0s] It doesn't matter.
[515.0s] It was a six.
[516.0s] Do we have six up there?
[517.0s] Port City.
[518.0s] Waterfall.
[519.0s] Backroom office.
[520.0s] Newspaper office.
[521.0s] Exotic port town named Flaternouge.
[524.0s] It couldn't have gone better.
[529.0s] What are we doing?
[530.0s] What's going on in Flaternouge?
[532.0s] What brings our three adventurers here?
[535.0s] There's perhaps a festival, one year anniversary, a specific item.
[543.0s] They've been recruited.
[545.0s] What's feeling good for everybody?
[549.0s] Give me my why.
[550.0s] I always want to answer.
[552.0s] I'm like, oh, what about...
[553.0s] I know, right?
[554.0s] This isn't for us.
[555.0s] Oh, my God.
[556.0s] Birthday shopping for Opal.
[557.0s] Tom, what's jumping out to you?
[559.0s] Ooh, I'm going to say summer car show, but like summer carriage show.
[565.0s] Putting a little spin on it.
[567.0s] All right.
[568.0s] Like pimp my carriage.
[570.0s] Exactly.
[571.0s] All right.
[572.0s] So our adventurers, Elia, Night Hunter, and Perseus have come to Flaternouge, the
[577.0s] exotic port town for the summer carriage show, which Flaternouge is well known for.
[583.0s] Something goes wrong in Flaternouge.
[586.0s] At the summer carriage show.
[588.0s] That requires the assistance.
[591.0s] We've been looking forward to it all year.
[593.0s] It's biannual, which I am hoping right now.
[596.0s] My brain says that that's only every two years.
[598.0s] That is only every two years.
[600.0s] Carla.
[601.0s] Yes.
[602.0s] There's excessive flat tires there, too, as well.
[605.0s] So we've got missing tires and flat tires.
[607.0s] Which is jumping out to you as the problem in Flaternouge.
[611.0s] Someone just murdered in a carriage.
[614.0s] Okay.
[615.0s] Maybe give it half a second here.
[617.0s] There's some late game ads.
[619.0s] Random people keep getting fired.
[621.0s] Miss Daniel's got to burn me a little bit.
[625.0s] Well, I mean, it's a very common problem.
[627.0s] Blah, blah, blah.
[628.0s] People keep punching old people, okay?
[630.0s] And teens.
[632.0s] And don't forget about the teens.
[634.0s] Usually the teens.
[636.0s] Let's say.
[640.0s] Nobody's followed up that one, so I feel like that's where it stops.
[643.0s] Because they knew he cut me to the bone.
[648.0s] How about excessive flat tires?
[651.0s] Someone is sabotaging the carriages in the show,
[656.0s] and they're defacing them.
[658.0s] I don't know that they really have tires,
[660.0s] so I don't know if they can be flat.
[662.0s] But they're messing stuff up on the show mobiles.
[665.0s] It could be teens.
[667.0s] Hubcaps are coming off.
[668.0s] I assume they have a hubcap.
[670.0s] Sure.
[671.0s] The fancy ones do.
[672.0s] Well, these are the fancy ones, right?
[674.0s] These are the ones in the show.
[676.0s] They're not bringing in your old busted up carriage.
[679.0s] They'll laugh you out of, what is it, Flaggenberg?
[681.0s] Flatter News.
[684.0s] Flatter News.
[685.0s] I will be just adding a different F name.
[687.0s] It's a Larry.
[688.0s] Love it.
[689.0s] Every time.
[690.0s] And the youths might be to blame.
[691.0s] Who knows if it's the youths or not?
[694.0s] And who is in charge of the Flatter News summer carriage show?
[699.0s] Who runs this event biannually?
[702.0s] I thought it was Houlahan.
[706.0s] I mean, Houlahan is...
[708.0s] Oh, my God.
[709.0s] He would, too.
[711.0s] Well, let's say Hillup.
[712.0s] Hillup is...
[713.0s] Does Hillup know Elia and Nighthunter?
[716.0s] No.
[717.0s] Right?
[718.0s] I don't think so.
[719.0s] In the future, but if we're younger.
[720.0s] Yeah, we're level 10s.
[721.0s] This is in the past.
[722.0s] We're practically youths ourselves.
[724.0s] Actually, who knows?
[725.0s] Who knows what Hillup knows?
[728.0s] I don't like that.
[729.0s] I think Hillup knows.
[731.0s] All right.
[732.0s] I feel like we've got it.
[733.0s] We've got the location.
[734.0s] The Flatter News, which is an exotic port town that's important, is a summer carriage
[740.0s] show, which is a biannual occurrence.
[744.0s] Hillup is the proprietor of the summer carriage show.
[749.0s] Hillup's summer carriage show.
[751.0s] He bits his name in it.
[753.0s] Of course.
[754.0s] Of course.
[755.0s] You got to have that branding.
[756.0s] It's all the branding.
[757.0s] He's the Jason Derulo of this world.
[760.0s] You get it.
[761.0s] And there's an issue that we're going to find out may or may not be tied to excessive
[766.0s] flat tires.
[768.0s] And we're going to see that scene in three, two, one, fuck it, let's play.
[778.4s] It's an excessively rainy day in Flatter News, but the clouds are clearing and
[784.0s] it's shaping up to be just a wonderful day at Hillup's summer carriage show, biannually,
[792.0s] of course, as our traveling adventurers find their way to Flatter News.
[799.0s] Elia, Perseus, and Nighthunter, who've met on the road sometime and decided to
[804.0s] travel, having ditched Opel some six towns back, seemed like a good fit to make sure
[812.0s] they had a good trio to take on and keep the name The God's Chosen Three.
[819.0s] The third one is interchangeable.
[821.0s] Yeah.
[822.0s] Opel had to stop at a bunch of yarn shops in every town and eventually we just
[828.0s] wanted to get to our destination.
[830.0s] He knew where we were going.
[832.0s] It's not like we're like, goodbye forever.
[834.0s] It's a real understudy situation.
[836.0s] Yeah.
[837.0s] We didn't throw up a blanket and then disappear through a door and then he's
[840.0s] like, wah!
[841.0s] I mean, he 100% would fall for that.
[843.0s] I know.
[844.0s] I now kind of want to do that note.
[846.0s] Noted for the other game.
[848.0s] Yes.
[849.0s] That's good.
[850.0s] As you enter Flatter News, this exotic port town, there are lovely shops with
[857.0s] all sorts of fantastic fabrics and wares from all over the globe, excellent spices
[864.0s] and exotic fruits which you've never seen before.
[868.0s] You, as you're entering the town, it's a busy bustling street as the rain is
[874.0s] clearing, the sweet smell of horse manure hits you in the face and as you
[883.0s] look ahead, you see just the biggest commotion gathered around the town
[888.0s] square where you can only assume because there's a giant sign above it,
[892.0s] Hillip's Summer Carriage Show, biannually sponsored by Baja Maniacs with a
[898.0s] big picture of this multicolored platinum dragonborn, big guns, muscles
[907.0s] fLexing, holding up a carriage herself.
[911.0s] This sign, it's very weird.
[913.0s] Does he not know it should say biannual and then the name of what this is?
[920.0s] Biannual, not something you throw on ends.
[923.0s] Grammar is important.
[925.0s] Look at you, you're so good.
[926.0s] Now you're correcting other people.
[928.0s] Well, I don't want to be some, you know, one of those people who are always
[932.0s] like, that is not how you say it, but I think I'm getting very good.
[935.0s] I think you should keep it up.
[937.0s] So we're here.
[939.0s] Are you excited?
[941.0s] Yes, this is very good.
[942.0s] I have not seen carriage show before.
[945.0s] How about you, little Percy?
[946.0s] You neither, Perseus.
[948.0s] Yeah.
[949.0s] What exactly happens in a carriage show?
[951.0s] Oh, well, it sounds like we're all new.
[954.0s] I just know that back at the monastery, I used to have sort of like
[958.0s] etchings of cool carriages upon the wall.
[961.0s] Wow, really?
[962.0s] Yeah, because I love them so much.
[964.0s] And of course, we just had like the most basic kind of.
[968.0s] So this is very exciting.
[970.0s] Look at that one.
[971.0s] That one striped.
[973.0s] You can trick out some carriages.
[977.0s] Yes, exactly.
[979.0s] Doesn't just have to be about function.
[981.0s] I heard about one.
[982.0s] It had a pool in the back.
[983.0s] I mean, sort of just like a little like duck pond.
[986.0s] But still amazing.
[988.0s] You would not have to stop to bathroom.
[995.0s] And now we've just now put in 900 piece in the pool.
[999.0s] She's really upfront about it.
[1002.0s] And as you all just think on that for a long, hard moment,
[1006.0s] you step into the town square where you're shoulder to shoulder with people.
[1011.0s] But Tom Perseus sees one of the first carriages there.
[1016.0s] Describe to me the pimped out state of this carriage.
[1020.0s] Super cool carriage.
[1022.0s] It's got like 24 inch wheels.
[1026.0s] They've got like spikes on the end of it.
[1028.0s] Like, you know, those old like gladiator chariots that would have like the spiked wheels.
[1032.0s] It's totally got those big plush seat up at the front.
[1035.0s] And then like these really cool looking like curtains and drapes all around the side.
[1040.0s] So like you can't see anything in the carriage itself.
[1044.0s] Completely blacked out.
[1046.0s] And it's bright teal.
[1048.0s] So this is for sale.
[1050.0s] People will buy.
[1051.0s] You see they are like selling.
[1053.0s] Are they just showing them off?
[1055.0s] Or can we buy them?
[1056.0s] That one's just for having.
[1057.0s] Will they erase them?
[1059.0s] Right.
[1060.0s] Do they erase them?
[1061.0s] Who can we ask?
[1062.0s] We kind of need.
[1064.0s] I know we sort of need maybe there's a guidebook or something.
[1067.0s] We need an expert here to sort of guide our experience.
[1070.0s] Yeah.
[1071.0s] Let's track down the information kiosk.
[1073.0s] You walk around.
[1074.0s] You see all different types of carriages that are you wish you had growing up specifically.
[1082.0s] And you find your way to the information kiosk where there's a tall gangly man with a pencil thin mustache and a beret.
[1092.0s] Who has a sign on him that just says owner operator proprietor sponsored by Baja.
[1101.0s] And he has his mountains of baguettes on the table.
[1107.0s] And he sees you approaching as he's finishing up with one customer and says yes.
[1111.0s] Yes.
[1112.0s] You look like you have questions.
[1113.0s] Hello.
[1114.0s] It's me.
[1115.0s] I am here to answer your questions.
[1120.0s] Hi.
[1121.0s] Hello.
[1122.0s] Hello.
[1123.0s] I guess first question is what is this?
[1126.0s] What is this?
[1127.0s] This is a information booth there.
[1130.0s] No, no.
[1131.0s] I mean, like, what is this?
[1133.0s] Oh, this is this is the Flatternouge Hillips Summer Carriage Show.
[1139.0s] It happens biannually.
[1141.0s] This is the inaugural biannual.
[1144.0s] So it happens in the future twice times.
[1148.0s] Probably we have be invited back more.
[1151.0s] But it's sponsored by Baja Maniacs.
[1154.0s] He holds up this big poster.
[1155.0s] Would you like to buy a poster?
[1156.0s] So when it says owner operator, are those just like suggested titles?
[1161.0s] They are.
[1163.0s] Who decided you need to wear sandwich board?
[1166.0s] Well, it's a sandwich board.
[1168.0s] Really just make sure that people can see me coming and that I can bump into them.
[1173.0s] And then it's a conversation start.
[1175.0s] It seems very impractical.
[1177.0s] What if you need to fight immediately?
[1181.0s] Why would you need to fight immediately?
[1183.0s] Don't you have friends?
[1184.0s] And then Nighthunter.
[1185.0s] Nighthunter like with her with her axe.
[1192.0s] Nailed it.
[1193.0s] A small roll falls from between his legs.
[1198.0s] Oh, do not eat baguettes.
[1200.0s] I was kidding.
[1202.0s] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1203.0s] No, this is the this is the summer carriage show where we don't fight.
[1207.0s] Please don't fight.
[1208.0s] No, I will not fight.
[1209.0s] So what do we do?
[1210.0s] We buy carriage.
[1211.0s] We watch them race.
[1213.0s] Look at them.
[1214.0s] Yeah, they can race.
[1215.0s] We will see them race.
[1217.0s] This is just people showing off.
[1219.0s] Yeah, no.
[1221.0s] So we watch and we do not get to do it.
[1225.0s] Hula Han over there.
[1226.0s] He's got the best ride.
[1227.0s] You got to go check out him.
[1229.0s] He's got 18.
[1230.0s] Will he give us a ride?
[1231.0s] Well, if you ask nicely, maybe go check it out.
[1234.0s] Yeah, let's go ask him.
[1235.0s] Hey, Hula Han.
[1236.0s] Hula Han.
[1237.0s] Yeah.
[1238.0s] Hi, Hula Han.
[1239.0s] It's me, Hila.
[1240.0s] Hila, the proprietor and owner operator of Hila Summer Carriage Show.
[1244.0s] Yep.
[1245.0s] You signed up for two times.
[1247.0s] So guaranteed you'll be here in two years.
[1250.0s] You do not need to keep introducing yourself every single time.
[1253.0s] Like.
[1254.0s] Thank you, Hula Han.
[1255.0s] These are new friends that we have just met.
[1257.0s] This is Perseus.
[1261.0s] Night Hunter.
[1262.0s] Yes.
[1263.0s] So you got all their names.
[1264.0s] So basically, all you need to do is take them for a ride.
[1268.0s] But this is a carriage show.
[1270.0s] So like people just are supposed to walk around and look at them and wish they could have them.
[1274.0s] Yeah, I feel like he's sort of misrepresenting.
[1277.0s] He made a demand, whereas we just have never been to a carriage show before.
[1281.0s] We don't know what's happening.
[1282.0s] We just had some questions like, so we just get to walk around and look at the cool carriages, right?
[1286.0s] Yeah, that's pretty much it.
[1288.0s] Pretty low commitment.
[1289.0s] You didn't have to pay anything to get here.
[1291.0s] He didn't charge you anything, did he?
[1292.0s] Because he's not paying us.
[1293.0s] No, no, we didn't.
[1295.0s] I mean, just travel expenses, but we wanted to come.
[1297.0s] Well, I can come show you my my ride.
[1301.0s] Yeah.
[1302.0s] What do you how many how many horsepower this thing got?
[1306.0s] Four.
[1308.0s] Takes four to pull it six if you want to be really efficient.
[1311.0s] But I mean, if you got four strong horses, that's going to be good enough.
[1314.0s] Amazing.
[1315.0s] It looks so do you want to sit in it?
[1317.0s] Can I?
[1319.0s] I mean, absolutely.
[1320.0s] We do.
[1321.0s] Could I sit in it?
[1322.0s] I don't know if I was asking you, man, but like, I guess you can sit in it, too.
[1325.0s] Oh, well, we're clearly a group.
[1326.0s] Clearly.
[1327.0s] I don't know if your big friend is going to fit, though.
[1329.0s] Why is why is he calling me big?
[1331.0s] It's good that we're friends, though.
[1333.0s] I mean, I could take the sandwich barred off.
[1336.0s] I think he was talking about me.
[1338.0s] Yeah, I think he meant Night Hunter, because she's so tall and strong, magnificent and powerful.
[1348.0s] And yes, Tom, you make me blush.
[1351.0s] Well, that's very sweet.
[1353.0s] All right.
[1354.0s] So you want like every everyone can see it.
[1355.0s] It's obvious.
[1356.0s] Anyone who can see it, though, because I mean, like, get in here now.
[1360.0s] There's been some weird shit going on around here.
[1363.0s] So like, I don't know how much longer I'm going to leave my carriage here.
[1366.0s] What do you mean weird shit's happening?
[1369.0s] Yeah.
[1370.0s] What's what's the story there?
[1371.0s] Yeah.
[1372.0s] What what kind of that's not good for business.
[1374.0s] Tell me who the hand what happened was the biannual presenter and person who does this thing.
[1382.0s] I thought you already knew.
[1384.0s] But like, there's tons of things happening to other people's carriages.
[1389.0s] Oh, not mine.
[1390.0s] I've got security.
[1391.0s] OK, yeah.
[1393.0s] But not everyone can afford that.
[1394.0s] Not everyone's rolling in the gold, you know.
[1396.0s] You look to the left and the right and there are two smaller tortles both carrying large broomsticks standing beside.
[1405.0s] Those are good guards.
[1406.0s] I mean, they don't look like much, but don't underestimate them.
[1409.0s] This is frickin Franklin and they will fuck you up.
[1412.0s] Frickin Franklin will fuck.
[1414.0s] Oh, boy.
[1415.0s] I mean, initially, I thought maybe they were like a janitorial staff.
[1419.0s] But I mean, they also do clean the carriage.
[1422.0s] Oh, OK.
[1423.0s] And it's nice, you know, in this economy, you got a got a multitask.
[1426.0s] It's a gig economy.
[1428.0s] OK, I'm going to I'm going to ask you one more time.
[1432.0s] What's happening?
[1433.0s] Who the hand?
[1434.0s] I think there are like some wheels being stolen.
[1437.0s] Some people are drawing like, you know, you know.
[1442.0s] You know what what what are they drawing?
[1446.0s] Penises.
[1447.0s] Yes.
[1448.0s] Penises.
[1449.0s] Oh, OK.
[1450.0s] It's always it's always always isn't it?
[1452.0s] It's always the schlongs.
[1455.0s] Every time.
[1456.0s] Just sometimes, but every time.
[1459.0s] Yeah.
[1460.0s] Yeah.
[1461.0s] And it's always more than one.
[1462.0s] It's not just one penis.
[1463.0s] It's actually P and I.
[1465.0s] So and the fact that they're doing this and like nobody's noticed who it is.
[1470.0s] It's like that's very mysterious.
[1472.0s] A little unsettling.
[1473.0s] Pretty mysterious.
[1474.0s] Well, it's too bad that the local detectives have taken the day off.
[1478.0s] I wonder who we could get to do such a thing.
[1481.0s] I'm going to go ask around, see if anybody knows anything about adventuring.
[1486.0s] Before you before you go, is there like a cheese stand or anything?
[1492.0s] As a matter of fact, there is.
[1494.0s] Just just follow this.
[1496.0s] Follow your nose down the aisle here and it will lead you to Moldy McCheezersons.
[1504.0s] OK, sounds good.
[1505.0s] Yeah.
[1506.0s] Don't worry about the name.
[1507.0s] It's actually really good.
[1508.0s] That was going to be my question.
[1510.0s] You hear a shriek and a scream from the other side.
[1516.0s] Happened again.
[1529.0s] Happened again.
[1530.0s] The crowd that kind of parts and you you make your way over to the carriage
[1535.0s] that Perseus spied as you walked in the 24 inch wheels with spikes,
[1541.0s] plush seat, curtains with drapes and bright teal.
[1544.0s] It is the wheels themselves have been become deflated.
[1551.0s] They were in fact rubberized.
[1555.0s] See, this is just kind of like when you showboat a little too much.
[1558.0s] I think you're just drawing the wrong kind of attention to yourself.
[1561.0s] Really putting the flat and flatter news.
[1565.0s] That's clever.
[1566.0s] All right.
[1567.0s] Bye.
[1568.0s] We're going to go talk to Lady Beatrice over here.
[1570.0s] She's going to tell us what happened to her carriage.
[1573.0s] It's nice talking to you.
[1575.0s] Thanks for the ride.
[1576.0s] All right.
[1577.0s] A small one.
[1578.0s] If you ever want to ride in my carriage, you just let me know.
[1580.0s] Cool.
[1581.0s] Cool.
[1582.0s] I'll do that.
[1584.0s] That's great.
[1586.0s] That guy was weird.
[1587.0s] I did not like him.
[1588.0s] He looking at Elia.
[1589.0s] So strange.
[1590.0s] Oh, I thought he was friendly.
[1592.0s] I mean, it was nice that he let me get in the carriage and check it out.
[1596.0s] He told Perseus where the cheese was too.
[1599.0s] I mean, yeah, he's friend in my books.
[1601.0s] Night Hunter, do you think I know we're supposed to be on vacation
[1605.0s] and not like adventuring, but I do feel like maybe we should help if we can.
[1610.0s] I mean, it's kind of rude for people to be wrecking people's stuff here, right?
[1615.0s] But I don't like we're here as a friend.
[1618.0s] Is this not one situation where it is like not my monkeys, not my circus?
[1625.0s] Well, I mean, if you feel that way, then I'm not going to make it.
[1632.0s] Someone is leaking from my eyes making noise.
[1635.0s] OK, we do it.
[1636.0s] We just we need her to stop.
[1638.0s] Yeah.
[1639.0s] Ma'am, ma'am, stop now.
[1642.0s] Is there something we can do to help?
[1645.0s] Well, somebody has deflated my tire.
[1653.0s] Yes.
[1654.0s] Yeah, we see that.
[1656.0s] There is a reason we use wooden tires.
[1658.0s] They're not much more sturdy.
[1660.0s] Oh, really?
[1662.0s] You hear from around you shocks and gasps as pops and and cracks happen,
[1669.0s] begin happening like in quick succession all around.
[1673.0s] Everybody's looking around, trying to see who's doing it.
[1676.0s] But nobody spies anyone at the moment.
[1680.0s] It's happening. It's happening everywhere.
[1682.0s] I thought I saw somebody run off into the hills.
[1685.0s] Maybe running up that hill.
[1687.0s] Yeah. Would you say the hills are alive at all with any sort of sounds?
[1691.0s] We do have livestock and and various local flora and fauna,
[1697.0s] which could be something that's alive in the hills.
[1702.0s] OK, perhaps we pursue person.
[1705.0s] That was many piece.
[1706.0s] Well, you are well known for your alliteration there, Nighthunter.
[1709.0s] I did not know that was something I know for.
[1711.0s] Did you know that before you met me?
[1713.0s] I mean, I'd heard stories about it, but to see it in person, I tell you.
[1717.0s] Did you hear about Elia? People know me for alliteration.
[1720.0s] For all of the arm wrestling competitions.
[1724.0s] For your incredible athletic prowess.
[1726.0s] I mean, there's a lot of reasons why people know.
[1728.0s] Hey, those all started with a two.
[1730.0s] Look what happens.
[1731.0s] We are like syncing it.
[1734.0s] Shall we pursue potential suspect?
[1738.0s] I mean, I'd like to get away from the crying person.
[1743.0s] I don't know how they were there and then saw them run away.
[1747.0s] But then all the stuff happened after that.
[1750.0s] So OK, Beatrice, we find person.
[1753.0s] Bye bye.
[1759.0s] Tell us.
[1760.0s] We can't hear you.
[1761.0s] We too far away.
[1762.0s] So it's a little hard to hear you from over here.
[1764.0s] Bye.
[1765.0s] Look, I see.
[1766.0s] Look, bean farm.
[1767.0s] You can tell by a shape of leaf.
[1769.0s] Wow.
[1770.0s] Everybody roll investigation as you hear the sound of what sounds like a squeaky marker.
[1775.0s] I love that sound.
[1776.0s] You guys.
[1777.0s] There's a sound that makes my brain do the nice brain tingle.
[1781.0s] Thirteen.
[1782.0s] Sixteen.
[1783.0s] Sorry.
[1784.0s] That's 13.
[1785.0s] Sorry for investigation.
[1787.0s] Oh, damn it.
[1788.0s] It's minus one.
[1789.0s] Eight.
[1790.0s] OK.
[1791.0s] You're looking at the beans.
[1792.0s] You're looking at the beans.
[1793.0s] Too distracted.
[1794.0s] You're like, why are we even here?
[1796.0s] First of all.
[1797.0s] But as the sound is following you into the hills, as you're following these things
[1804.0s] footsteps, there's probably two, maybe three sets of footsteps.
[1810.0s] They look like humanoid.
[1812.0s] They look like they're wearing shoes.
[1814.0s] Well, hold on now.
[1816.0s] Are you categorizing humanoid things as the only things that can wear shoes?
[1820.0s] What if it's a spider?
[1821.0s] What if there are eight shoes?
[1822.0s] Well, as I said, there were two or three.
[1824.0s] So that leads to believe that there are four to six steps, you see.
[1828.0s] Can't be a spider.
[1830.0s] Maybe.
[1831.0s] I couldn't follow that logic, but you win.
[1834.0s] Impenetrable.
[1835.0s] You win.
[1836.0s] I can't.
[1837.0s] What I was trying to set up is Hillop puts over top of your hand.
[1841.0s] Each of you have your own sandwich board now that says honorary deputy of Hillop's
[1847.0s] summer carriage show, biannual deputy sponsored by Bahamania.
[1853.0s] No, thanks you.
[1854.0s] Well, no, you have to have that.
[1856.0s] You've been deputized.
[1857.0s] What I said about not being able to fight with this on.
[1861.0s] It is encumbering.
[1862.0s] That is the right word, right?
[1863.0s] It is encumbering.
[1864.0s] What are you going to fight?
[1865.0s] It's probably the youths.
[1866.0s] Well, I think that's a stereotypical talk.
[1869.0s] I'm not opposed to fighting youths.
[1871.0s] That's what Beatrice said.
[1872.0s] Elia has once or twice.
[1875.0s] I mean, that's what we've heard about Elia, too, is that does not discriminate
[1880.0s] via age on who she's punching.
[1882.0s] OK.
[1883.0s] No, you can punch them out then.
[1885.0s] Go back and slap them.
[1887.0s] Slap them silly.
[1888.0s] I usually do more like a punch, punch, kick or kick, kick, punch.
[1891.0s] But anyway, she is so fast.
[1893.0s] You should see how fast she moves.
[1895.0s] So fast.
[1896.0s] It's amazing.
[1897.0s] Oh, I could watch her move fast all day.
[1899.0s] Watch how fast I take the sandwich board off.
[1902.0s] And I'm like already.
[1903.0s] I'm already gone.
[1904.0s] I am actually fairly impressed that you could get sandwich board over my head without
[1908.0s] me noticing.
[1909.0s] Actually, like, wow, that's impressive.
[1912.0s] OK.
[1913.0s] Goodbye, man.
[1914.0s] OK.
[1915.0s] I'm going to go back and I'm trying to help fix the wheels and tires.
[1919.0s] And maybe I fixed a tire once or at least I observed fixing a tire once with a good
[1926.0s] friend, Sully, some time ago.
[1929.0s] And he fades off into a flashback of his own.
[1933.0s] Nobody sees about him.
[1935.0s] That's right.
[1936.0s] That's a personal one.
[1937.0s] I mean, he's just still standing here.
[1939.0s] I thought what he said, like I thought that meant he was going to leave.
[1942.0s] He's just gone like, you know, like I don't even think he is even here.
[1946.0s] I do like a little wave in front of his eyes.
[1949.0s] You guys little slowly walk backwards.
[1953.0s] I've already left.
[1954.0s] I said I took mine off and I took off.
[1956.0s] So she is so fast.
[1958.0s] You see how fast she is.
[1959.0s] It is amazing.
[1960.0s] So fast.
[1961.0s] You follow Elia's.
[1962.0s] You can't follow Elia's footsteps because she moves so fast.
[1965.0s] She barely touches the ground.
[1966.0s] Don't even make up.
[1967.0s] Follow the footsteps you were following originally and you catch up to Elia in two
[1971.0s] hours.
[1972.0s] I stop and wait once I get out of sight.
[1975.0s] Sure.
[1976.0s] That's right.
[1977.0s] And as you make it through this clearing down through these trees, you come to a
[1982.0s] cave's entrance where the footsteps lead in.
[1986.0s] Is it the Cave of Wonders?
[1988.0s] It does not have a specific sign that says Cave of Wonders.
[1992.0s] No sign.
[1993.0s] It is not shaped like a giant lion's mouth open.
[1997.0s] No.
[1998.0s] No lion's mouth ruin.
[2000.0s] You do see a person who is seated by the cave.
[2007.0s] They have a cloak over top of them.
[2010.0s] A hood pulled down.
[2011.0s] I thought you were going to say sandwich board.
[2013.0s] It's like, oh my god.
[2014.0s] He's fucking got everybody.
[2015.0s] Oh my god.
[2016.0s] So fast.
[2017.0s] Jesus.
[2018.0s] There is a figure.
[2020.0s] You can't really see their face from where they are, but they are seated in
[2023.0s] a hunched resting position by the entrance to this cave where the footsteps are leading
[2029.0s] in.
[2030.0s] It doesn't appear that it's this person's footsteps as they go past.
[2033.0s] Hello.
[2034.0s] Oh, I'm so sorry.
[2038.0s] I didn't mean to wake you.
[2040.0s] Did you see a scoundrel scamper by?
[2043.0s] A scoundrel?
[2045.0s] What did they look like?
[2047.0s] I don't know.
[2049.0s] Well, it's tough to describe a scoundrel.
[2052.0s] Oh, perhaps they have big marker or some paint.
[2058.0s] A marker or some paint?
[2060.0s] Yes, they be drawing dicks on everything.
[2063.0s] Oh.
[2064.0s] Yeah.
[2065.0s] Like what is so impressive about this?
[2067.0s] Like nothing.
[2068.0s] It depends on how well it's endowed, I guess.
[2071.0s] I hear it.
[2072.0s] It's not the size.
[2073.0s] I would not know.
[2074.0s] That's fair.
[2075.0s] That's fair.
[2076.0s] Well, there was some quick footed steps that ran past not too long ago.
[2081.0s] I looked up and they were gone.
[2084.0s] One moment, though.
[2085.0s] You've been sleeping here the whole time?
[2087.0s] Yes.
[2088.0s] Oh, you have a little something.
[2091.0s] Sorry.
[2092.0s] No, no.
[2093.0s] It's nuts coming off.
[2095.0s] You have like...
[2097.0s] It's sort of a little phallic.
[2099.0s] And it's right there by the mouth.
[2101.0s] What is it?
[2102.0s] Is it ketchup?
[2104.0s] No, it's penis.
[2106.0s] Is it on my face?
[2108.0s] Yeah, someone has vandalized your face.
[2112.0s] Your face has been vandalized.
[2116.0s] It's been perhaps dickified, I'm not sure.
[2119.0s] Is that his word?
[2120.0s] I'm pretty sure that's his word, yeah.
[2121.0s] I'm pretty sure.
[2123.0s] You're not the guard.
[2125.0s] A guard?
[2127.0s] Well, you're here outside the entrance to the cave.
[2129.0s] It would be a terrible guard.
[2131.0s] I know you would not say you're very nice.
[2136.0s] I say it out loud.
[2137.0s] This was just a resting spot.
[2139.0s] I see someone outside a cave.
[2141.0s] It seems like maybe they're...
[2143.0s] I mean, it's a reasonable leap to me.
[2145.0s] Yeah.
[2146.0s] No, this was just a resting spot.
[2148.0s] I have been here for quite some time.
[2150.0s] How long have you been here?
[2152.0s] Yeah, no, I've been here for some time.
[2154.0s] Probably 16, 10 days.
[2157.0s] I swear to God, I thought he was going to say like 30 years.
[2160.0s] Mm-hmm.
[2162.0s] Put it 16, 10.
[2164.0s] Is it 26 days?
[2166.0s] No, 16, 10 days.
[2168.0s] 10 days isn't a week.
[2169.0s] So 160 days?
[2171.0s] 160 days.
[2172.0s] No, but 16, 10 would be 1610.
[2176.0s] Yep, that too.
[2177.0s] That's...
[2178.0s] Listen, I think our purpose is not this strange man.
[2183.0s] No offense.
[2185.0s] No offense. Who am I?
[2186.0s] Elia, I spent too much time with you.
[2188.0s] I know, that was nice.
[2190.0s] That was not Night Hunter saying this.
[2192.0s] Yeah.
[2195.0s] So have I been in?
[2196.0s] Yeah, yeah, I've been in.
[2198.0s] It was pretty sick.
[2200.0s] They got some cool swag up on the walls.
[2206.0s] Oh, he is speaking tin talk.
[2208.0s] That is suspicious.
[2210.0s] Did you learn some cool slang from the youths?
[2214.0s] Yeah, I have.
[2216.0s] They showed up to keep me company one time.
[2219.0s] That is baller?
[2221.0s] That is baller.
[2223.0s] Very fresh.
[2224.0s] I mean, really good job, Night Hunter.
[2226.0s] It slaps.
[2232.0s] I'm sorry.
[2233.0s] Well, as the guard to this cave aforementioned.
[2236.0s] It's the tits.
[2238.0s] It's the tits.
[2240.0s] You are not guard, though, here.
[2242.0s] So you just sleeping old man.
[2244.0s] I think what I previously said here is I've been here for 1600 days.
[2248.0s] Those are long days.
[2249.0s] Which makes me squatter's rights, I think, is what it is.
[2253.0s] So it's my cave.
[2254.0s] I will allow you into it.
[2256.0s] It is if you had choice.
[2258.0s] OK, so you are the guard then?
[2260.0s] Yes, sir.
[2262.0s] So who is in cave right now?
[2266.0s] You don't know, dick face.
[2268.0s] And Night Hunter just storms past them into the cave.
[2270.0s] Like, we've wasted too much time here.
[2273.0s] We enter this wide open chamber in this first leg of this cave.
[2279.0s] It's a dry cave.
[2283.0s] It's not musty.
[2285.0s] It's well-kept.
[2286.0s] Looks like somebody has swept up at least this area.
[2289.0s] You look and there's a broom and a dustpan off to one side.
[2293.0s] And then just a pile of dirt over in one of the corners.
[2297.0s] So lazy, like they could not have thrown that out just outside.
[2300.0s] I think you would just sweep it right on out.
[2303.0s] Just right on.
[2304.0s] You hear a call from behind you.
[2306.0s] Don't mess with my dirt pile.
[2308.0s] Night Hunter bends down and purposely draws a dick in the dirt pile.
[2317.0s] In the dirt pile.
[2319.0s] Yeah.
[2320.0s] Got it.
[2321.0s] No marker.
[2322.0s] I'm like, you know, in sand.
[2324.0s] I carry down this long cavern that winds down through and into these caves.
[2329.0s] And as it gets darker, there's some bioluminescence that happens.
[2335.0s] But there's a flickering light that you see just out of reach.
[2341.0s] It's beginning to give just a little bit of light.
[2343.0s] But as you enter this new chamber, the walls are covered in spider webs.
[2353.0s] Okay.
[2354.0s] Everywhere.
[2355.0s] Thick cobwebs coming down.
[2357.0s] The footsteps that you were following appear to go in and through these spider webs.
[2364.0s] So he sweep up entrance and then leave this?
[2368.0s] Yeah, it doesn't look like he's touched this part.
[2371.0s] Maybe this is where he keeps his spider web collection.
[2376.0s] Oh, okay.
[2378.0s] This is sort of a display.
[2380.0s] And Elia sort of stands back to try and take it in and see if there's something.
[2384.0s] And she kind of crosses her eyes.
[2386.0s] Yes, if you unfocus.
[2388.0s] Yes, you can see.
[2389.0s] Look, it is corn on cob.
[2391.0s] I can't quite.
[2393.0s] I saw it.
[2394.0s] Once you said what it was, I could see it.
[2396.0s] This is what I doubt to you.
[2397.0s] So these are cobwebs?
[2398.0s] As you point out the corn on the cob, it actually starts to move.
[2402.0s] Oh.
[2403.0s] Eight legs shoot out from it.
[2407.0s] Oh, I don't think this cave might belong to a big hairy spider.
[2413.0s] Make a dexterity saving throw.
[2415.0s] All of us?
[2416.0s] Yeah.
[2417.0s] Why the fuck am I rolling like myself?
[2419.0s] Well.
[2423.0s] Alright, plus seven.
[2426.0s] Nine.
[2427.0s] Twenty-three.
[2428.0s] Oh, I also have a plus seven, but I got an eleven.
[2432.0s] Fuck.
[2433.0s] Oh, wow.
[2434.0s] Why are you rolling like me?
[2435.0s] Perseus, you nimbly dodge out of the way.
[2439.0s] Seven-eleven here get just completely hammered by this huge web that shoots out
[2447.0s] and blasts you back into the hallway.
[2449.0s] And you are plastered up against the wall, both of you.
[2452.0s] Russ, I'm going to grab my dagger and I'm going to try to cut them out of the spider webs.
[2457.0s] Alright.
[2458.0s] You quickly move over and you're hacking away.
[2461.0s] It's thick.
[2462.0s] Thick web.
[2463.0s] Night Hunter looks over and he goes, you know, I don't really mind being tied up.
[2466.0s] You, Elia?
[2467.0s] No, it's kind of, it's sort of nice to just give up control.
[2470.0s] Yeah, the pressure.
[2471.0s] Don't worry, guys.
[2472.0s] I'll get you down.
[2473.0s] No rush.
[2474.0s] I'm going as fast as I can.
[2476.0s] Roll damage for your dagger there, Tom.
[2478.0s] We'll see how quickly it gets through.
[2480.0s] Dagger does a whole ton of 1d4 plus two.
[2484.0s] So that is four damage.
[2486.0s] Hell, yeah.
[2487.0s] Four damage.
[2488.0s] You're making your way through pretty quickly.
[2489.0s] Like, you've got Night Hunter's, one of Night Hunter's arms out.
[2492.0s] And Night Hunter and Elia, you see it before Perseus hears it.
[2498.0s] But there is this corncob spider right behind you.
[2505.0s] And it moves its corncob mouth open and is going to try and attack you, Perseus.
[2512.0s] Watch out.
[2515.0s] 19.
[2516.0s] But like I said, watch out.
[2518.0s] Radioactive man, 19 will hit.
[2521.0s] So you're going to take seven piercing damage as this corncob spider now latches onto you
[2527.0s] and pulls its legs in, make a strength saving throw.
[2530.0s] Oh my god, it's giving him a full body hug.
[2532.0s] Yeah, it's giving him a full body hug.
[2534.0s] Alright, strength plus one, so that's a 12.
[2538.0s] So you are now grappled.
[2540.0s] Night Hunter has one arm out.
[2542.0s] Elia was not yet cut free.
[2544.0s] And you are ensnared.
[2546.0s] Let's roll a quick initiative here.
[2548.0s] Oh yeah.
[2549.0s] Fuck me.
[2550.0s] What on earth?
[2551.0s] 10.
[2552.0s] It was a seven plus three.
[2553.0s] Okay.
[2554.0s] 16.
[2555.0s] 12.
[2556.0s] Okay, Elia, you're up first.
[2558.0s] You have to try and find a way out here, which could be strength or could be some
[2563.0s] other mystical magical way.
[2565.0s] What about if I just like shimmied acrobatically?
[2571.0s] Well, yeah, because every time you shimmy, you'd be making a little more room.
[2575.0s] And me making it a little looser.
[2577.0s] Sure.
[2578.0s] I'm quite small.
[2579.0s] I'm not like strong in a big Night Hunter way, but I am strong in a like Bruce Lee
[2586.0s] kind of way.
[2587.0s] And I'm like small and tight.
[2588.0s] If you shimmy because your arms are down, you could get those amici blades.
[2592.0s] Yes, exactly.
[2594.0s] Okay, so make an athletics or an acrobatics for your shimmy.
[2598.0s] Make a shimmy roll.
[2600.0s] So that was a nat 20, so that's a 27.
[2602.0s] Oh shit.
[2603.0s] That's a very good shimmy.
[2604.0s] I'm not surprised.
[2605.0s] Your shimmying skills are off the charts.
[2607.0s] Night Hunter's just looking at you.
[2610.0s] I sort of look over at Night Hunter like as I emerge.
[2614.0s] It's just like kind of feeling myself.
[2618.0s] That was pretty good.
[2619.0s] That was good.
[2620.0s] Well, you have moves.
[2622.0s] And then, yeah, can I throw my moon-touched amicis?
[2628.0s] You betcha.
[2629.0s] Great.
[2630.0s] That was a fucking bad roll.
[2633.0s] So that's a 12.
[2635.0s] Love it.
[2636.0s] And that's a 22.
[2638.0s] Both of those will hit.
[2640.0s] Okay, that dice is still going in jail.
[2642.0s] The spider has a shitty exoskeleton in there, right?
[2645.0s] That's right.
[2647.0s] So that is 10, 17 damage.
[2652.0s] Also, there's light now because they're radiant.
[2654.0s] Perfect. Love it.
[2655.0s] They stick into the spider, and the radiant damage
[2660.0s] begins to heat the kernels on them,
[2663.0s] and you see them beginning to glow in size,
[2666.0s] or grow in size.
[2667.0s] Sorry, there's a lot of glowing, shimmering happening.
[2670.0s] Grow in size.
[2673.0s] Anything else you can or would like to do?
[2675.0s] No, probably with the shimmy and that,
[2677.0s] that's probably all I got.
[2680.0s] And as those amicis stick in,
[2683.0s] it's going to release Perseus.
[2685.0s] Perseus, you're now prone, but not grappled.
[2688.0s] It is your turn.
[2689.0s] Excellent.
[2690.0s] Guess if I'm prone, I need to stand up
[2692.0s] before I can really do much of anything.
[2694.0s] Unless you're going for Achilles tendons.
[2696.0s] Ooh.
[2697.0s] Which are well-known to be available on spiders.
[2700.0s] There's so many options.
[2701.0s] It's not wearing those silk shoes.
[2703.0s] It would determine there's no shoes on this spider.
[2706.0s] There's no shoes on this spider.
[2708.0s] I did not describe shoes on this spider.
[2710.0s] You look, double check.
[2711.0s] There's no shoes on this spider.
[2714.0s] Yeah, I'm going to try to do a little
[2717.0s] get back up to my feet and attack this thing all in one go.
[2721.0s] Love it.
[2722.0s] That is a 17.
[2724.0s] And then roll some damage.
[2725.0s] All right.
[2726.0s] He does five piercing damage with his dagger.
[2731.0s] And manages to, there's not a lot of force behind it
[2735.0s] because he's also in the process of getting up.
[2738.0s] He manages to stick that blade a couple inches in.
[2740.0s] Are you going for body or are you going for legs?
[2743.0s] Going for a leg.
[2744.0s] Okay, okay.
[2745.0s] So yeah, you stick it into the leg
[2747.0s] and it pops off and falls to the ground.
[2752.0s] Let's out this hideous like, as you do so.
[2756.0s] Night Hunter, it is your turn.
[2759.0s] You have one arm free.
[2760.0s] I've got one arm free.
[2761.0s] So what Night Hunter wants to do is
[2763.0s] that one arm happens to be where her axe is to her back.
[2767.0s] So the handle is there.
[2769.0s] And as she pulls her axe out,
[2772.0s] I'm hoping it's slicing through that web.
[2775.0s] Naturally.
[2776.0s] Yeah, of course it is.
[2777.0s] So in one quick movement, she's going to,
[2780.0s] she's going to take it.
[2782.0s] And then as she like releases herself from the wall,
[2786.0s] she's going to come down on top between all eight eyes.
[2790.0s] Four eyes, eight eyes.
[2792.0s] I'm having a moment.
[2793.0s] Doesn't matter.
[2794.0s] Between the eyes.
[2796.0s] All right.
[2797.0s] Roll the hitch.
[2798.0s] I'm not going to roll this dice anymore though,
[2800.0s] because it's hurt my feelings several times tonight.
[2802.0s] Well, you can go fuck yourself, you dice.
[2804.0s] A little high plus.
[2808.0s] Yeah.
[2809.0s] Okay.
[2810.0s] It's 17.
[2811.0s] Only because I have a plus nine.
[2812.0s] Only because it was an eight, you guys.
[2814.0s] Yeah, it's good.
[2815.0s] I forgot I was playing Night Hunter.
[2816.0s] Roll a bunch of damage.
[2817.0s] Yeah.
[2818.0s] All right.
[2819.0s] Damage is going to be 1d12 plus five.
[2821.0s] So nice when you have the bonuses.
[2823.0s] You miss those bonuses, Tom?
[2825.0s] That's so nice when you have them.
[2827.0s] Fuck off.
[2828.0s] Okay, from a 1d12, I got a two plus five is seven.
[2831.0s] All right.
[2832.0s] But I've got two actions.
[2833.0s] It looks real cool.
[2834.0s] Yeah.
[2835.0s] No, you.
[2836.0s] Oh, good.
[2837.0s] I want it to look real cool.
[2838.0s] I am looking at Elia the whole time.
[2840.0s] Soaring through the air towards this popcorn spider,
[2844.0s] who's continually growing in size.
[2846.0s] You see Perseus stabs into the leg, falls off.
[2849.0s] Now it's off kilter, which leaves you perfect
[2851.0s] for a straight hit to the head.
[2854.0s] And as you do so, your axe splits this cob down the middle
[2860.0s] and popcorn begins to shoot everywhere.
[2865.0s] And it falls to the ground, deceased.
[2868.0s] I stand there kind of in shock,
[2870.0s] as popcorn is just hitting me in the face and stuff.
[2873.0s] I think that is one of the weirdest things I have ever seen.
[2877.0s] Yeah, there's usually more goop.
[2879.0s] I mean, this is kind of.
[2880.0s] This was very clean.
[2882.0s] It's good to know this is weird for you guys,
[2884.0s] because it's really weird for me.
[2886.0s] So just as I'm glad that this is like a thing
[2888.0s] that you run into all the time.
[2890.0s] Would it be weird if I eat one?
[2892.0s] I kind of want to eat one.
[2893.0s] We need like some salt and maybe some butter.
[2896.0s] Are these like extra big kernels?
[2898.0s] Are they just regular sized kernels?
[2900.0s] Yeah, no, they're as big as your head.
[2902.0s] This was a large spider that grappled Perseus.
[2904.0s] Yeah.
[2905.0s] I'm going to put one in my bag.
[2909.0s] I'm going to put one.
[2910.0s] I'm going to put one.
[2911.0s] Head sized kernel in your bag.
[2913.0s] In my backpack, that's right.
[2914.0s] Got it.
[2915.0s] I'm wearing a backpack.
[2916.0s] I'm 12.
[2917.0s] Love it.
[2919.0s] My skateboard's in there too.
[2921.0s] You clear the cobwebs,
[2923.0s] and you're moving past this creature.
[2925.0s] You're taking as much popcorn as you want.
[2927.0s] You're eating as much as you want,
[2929.0s] or you're saving it for later.
[2931.0s] At the end, there is a long hallway
[2936.0s] that kind of clears out once the spider webs stop
[2940.0s] and opens into this large circular chamber.
[2946.0s] Inside this chamber, it is lit with black lights.
[2952.0s] There are what look to be punk rock posters all over it.
[2958.0s] Of course, there are stripper poles in various parts.
[2963.0s] This is lit.
[2965.0s] Lit is the right slang.
[2967.0s] Nailed it.
[2968.0s] Yeah, yeah.
[2969.0s] I'm doing so good at teen speak.
[2970.0s] There's so many things that you're taking in.
[2973.0s] You hear movement on what sounds like a bean bag
[2977.0s] on the other side of the room.
[2979.0s] Is this my teenage bedroom?
[2981.0s] Hello, who's there?
[2983.0s] Oh, hi.
[2984.0s] You got a real cool hangout here.
[2986.0s] Oh, thanks.
[2987.0s] Will you have a rave later?
[2989.0s] Yeah.
[2990.0s] What the hell's this?
[2991.0s] Well, this is my hangout spot.
[2993.0s] Welcome.
[2994.0s] I'm glad you got the invitation.
[2996.0s] Hopefully the spider didn't give you too much problems.
[2999.0s] I'm sorry.
[3000.0s] I'm sorry.
[3001.0s] I'm sorry.
[3002.0s] I'm sorry.
[3003.0s] I'm sorry.
[3004.0s] I'm sorry.
[3005.0s] I'm sorry.
[3006.0s] I'm sorry.
[3007.0s] I'm sorry.
[3008.0s] Hopefully the spider didn't give you too much problems.
[3011.0s] He's the guard, not the old man at the front.
[3014.0s] Well, who's the old man at the front then?
[3016.0s] He didn't get an invitation.
[3019.0s] Some call him the traveler.
[3023.0s] Some call him G-Dog.
[3026.0s] Some call him a pain in the ass.
[3029.0s] That last one sounds correct.
[3032.0s] Yeah, that rings true.
[3033.0s] So he didn't make it past the spider.
[3036.0s] And actually nobody did.
[3039.0s] Your spider was made out of popcorn.
[3042.0s] It was not made out of popcorn.
[3044.0s] It was popcorn.
[3045.0s] See, there's this thing called wild magic and weird shit happens when you start slinging spells.
[3052.0s] And you're popping shrooms.
[3055.0s] And you just really don't know what's happening.
[3057.0s] So you turn just a little itsy bitsy spider into a big popcorn spider.
[3062.0s] I am Flammokins.
[3063.0s] I used to be a pirate.
[3064.0s] Welcome to my humble abode.
[3066.0s] Elia, this is why I don't trust magic.
[3069.0s] This is fucked up.
[3072.0s] I heard a girl, a guy turn into potted plant once.
[3076.0s] Wife had to take care of him.
[3078.0s] Water every day as if husband not enough work, right?
[3081.0s] I mean, he turned back though, right?
[3083.0s] Could be less work.
[3084.0s] I don't know.
[3085.0s] I did not see.
[3086.0s] I suppose he would talk less.
[3087.0s] Aha.
[3088.0s] Barumed.
[3089.0s] Put one of those little balls full of water and he's fine.
[3093.0s] I'm just going to cast light because with the black light, it's like showing a lot of residue that I am not really comfortable.
[3103.0s] This is all splitter on walls.
[3105.0s] It's there's a lot of semen.
[3107.0s] So I try to keep it straight face so bad that I just spit on the inside of my hand.
[3115.0s] Oh, no.
[3116.0s] OK.
[3117.0s] So I've cast light just to keep my one spell.
[3120.0s] I have.
[3121.0s] Thank God.
[3122.0s] This magic I approve of takes us out of weird situation.
[3126.0s] That's good.
[3127.0s] It's safer in here now.
[3130.0s] Do not touch anything.
[3131.0s] It seems maybe obvious now, but were you the one like dickifying all of the carriages?
[3137.0s] I was dickifying the carriages.
[3140.0s] Like the dickification of what is happening over there.
[3143.0s] People very mad.
[3145.0s] Oh, yeah.
[3146.0s] Did you also melt the tires?
[3148.0s] Tell them how mad people were.
[3149.0s] People were so mad.
[3150.0s] People were so darn mad.
[3153.0s] How mad were they?
[3154.0s] They were crying.
[3155.0s] They were crying?
[3156.0s] Loud.
[3157.0s] Oh, wow.
[3158.0s] I haven't seen a cry mad in a long time.
[3161.0s] Not not from the phalluses so much, but from the broken wheels and the melted.
[3167.0s] No, I didn't do that.
[3168.0s] Did you check?
[3169.0s] Oh, well, yeah, maybe.
[3172.0s] There's another passageway through the spider webs.
[3175.0s] It could have gone that way if you followed them this way.
[3177.0s] You said no one pays spider.
[3179.0s] I didn't know.
[3180.0s] I've just been in here waiting for people to show up.
[3182.0s] I sent out my invitations and no.
[3184.0s] Well, I mean, since the seamen were here, nobody's come back.
[3190.0s] What did you do with seamen?
[3193.0s] Had fun.
[3195.0s] So passage through here, yes?
[3197.0s] To boggle.
[3198.0s] Boggle is fun.
[3200.0s] It's how I learn most of words.
[3202.0s] Did you do some juggling?
[3204.0s] Yeah.
[3205.0s] Yeah.
[3206.0s] Wait, did you kill them?
[3207.0s] This is blood.
[3208.0s] I know that shows blood too, right?
[3210.0s] No, no, I would never kill them.
[3212.0s] They came to have the party fun time.
[3216.0s] Anyways, no, come this way.
[3218.0s] And she leads you back out and into the spider web.
[3221.0s] Oh, yeah, just look here.
[3223.0s] She cast detect magic and somebody passed through here.
[3227.0s] It was like this weird translucent invisibility spell.
[3231.0s] They probably went down this hallway right over here.
[3234.0s] And it opens into this other chamber where these...
[3237.0s] Why beaded curtain?
[3239.0s] Well, because I was looking to expand.
[3242.0s] How old are you and what not important?
[3245.0s] No, it's not important.
[3247.0s] I've been a pirate for a long time.
[3250.0s] Before you open the curtain, you hear chuckles and laughter.
[3254.0s] And as you pull the curtain aside, you see three teens.
[3263.0s] What's up, fellow youth?
[3266.0s] They turn and they look at you.
[3269.0s] Not much, and then they run.
[3274.0s] Okay, do we kill?
[3275.0s] Do we subdue what we do?
[3276.0s] Just subdue.
[3277.0s] Do they always run from you guys?
[3279.0s] They never run from us.
[3280.0s] Well, I mean, I'm very scary.
[3282.0s] True.
[3283.0s] Oh, Elia, you're so good.
[3284.0s] Could you throw dagger but hit them with handle side?
[3288.0s] Ooh, yes.
[3290.0s] Right in back of skull.
[3291.0s] Won't kill, but perhaps lose some brain cell.
[3294.0s] How about shoulder?
[3295.0s] As long as you can knock them down, I believe you can.
[3299.0s] It'll hurt.
[3300.0s] I mean, the amount of time we're talking,
[3302.0s] you got to chase them a little bit now.
[3304.0s] Okay.
[3305.0s] But then we have a plan once we find them.
[3307.0s] That's right.
[3308.0s] True.
[3309.0s] You run and you chase them,
[3311.0s] and they're winding down these tunnels.
[3314.0s] I mean, I'm going to catch them.
[3315.0s] How fast do they run, Russ?
[3317.0s] Not so fucking fast.
[3319.0s] Do they have a 75-foot walking speed?
[3322.0s] Because I do.
[3324.0s] Okay, but you gave them a head start.
[3326.0s] So really, you're not chasing them so much
[3329.0s] as you are catching up to them with rapid speed.
[3332.0s] We're just pursuing them.
[3333.0s] They're going down, and this tunnel you see wraps around
[3337.0s] and through a couple other chambers,
[3339.0s] which look like they haven't been renovated recently,
[3342.0s] and in through the back of Flameykin's room.
[3348.0s] Mm-hmm.
[3349.0s] Room.
[3351.0s] Safest.
[3353.0s] And that's when you catch them,
[3355.0s] and you throw your weapons with such precision
[3361.0s] that it clocks them in the back of the head,
[3363.0s] and they drop to the ground,
[3365.0s] giving everybody else a chance to catch up.
[3370.0s] How'd you get them all down?
[3373.0s] Well, I mean, you can get that one.
[3376.0s] They're still up on it.
[3377.0s] Want to make an attack roll against somebody?
[3380.0s] I mean, obviously.
[3382.0s] Small, mighty fists of fury coming in
[3384.0s] with a 14 on the attack roll.
[3386.0s] Love it.
[3387.0s] You're punching them?
[3388.0s] Oh, yeah.
[3389.0s] Okay.
[3391.0s] Yeah, there's one who's trying to scramble away,
[3393.0s] Percy, as you jump on top of them
[3395.0s] and begin just beating them to the ground.
[3399.0s] Hey, what are you doing?
[3401.0s] We just want to talk.
[3403.0s] Okay, you're not proving that fact
[3405.0s] by punching me repeatedly.
[3407.0s] You can stop.
[3408.0s] We're talking now.
[3409.0s] Oh, I'm so sorry.
[3410.0s] It was just a reaction.
[3412.0s] I'm so sorry.
[3414.0s] Okay.
[3415.0s] Okay.
[3417.0s] Hi.
[3419.0s] Hi.
[3420.0s] Hi.
[3421.0s] Hi.
[3422.0s] I'm Terrence.
[3424.0s] Hey, Terrence.
[3425.0s] Why?
[3427.0s] Well, why'd you...
[3429.0s] We came here looking for scoundrels,
[3432.0s] and you ran away immediately
[3436.0s] when we saw you, so...
[3438.0s] Well, it's because of...
[3440.0s] You're probably here about...
[3443.0s] Well, the tires.
[3445.0s] Yeah.
[3446.0s] Well...
[3447.0s] What's that about?
[3448.0s] Okay, but the...
[3451.0s] The Hillop Summer Carriage Show,
[3453.0s] the inaugural biannual,
[3456.0s] sponsored by Bomb Maniacs, yeah.
[3459.0s] They took over
[3461.0s] what was supposed to be Cool Teen Week.
[3464.0s] Oh.
[3465.0s] My friend Bowstring here will tell you
[3467.0s] how cool Cool Teen Week was.
[3469.0s] So, like, it's so cool
[3472.0s] because it's all about teens
[3475.0s] and, like, how many big feelings we're feeling
[3478.0s] and how we express it
[3480.0s] through music and art,
[3482.0s] and it just seemed kind of like a dick move,
[3485.0s] so we, like, drew dicks on stuff.
[3487.0s] That's all I told them to do
[3488.0s] is to draw dicks on stuff.
[3489.0s] They popped the tires,
[3490.0s] they broke the wheels.
[3491.0s] That's on them.
[3492.0s] Kind of took it too far, yes.
[3494.0s] Couldn't you just still have Cool Teen Week,
[3497.0s] but also there'd be, like,
[3498.0s] some, like, dope whips there, too?
[3501.0s] Like, what...
[3502.0s] Why would you...
[3503.0s] I mean, she's got a really good point.
[3504.0s] That is a good point.
[3506.0s] We could have done that.
[3508.0s] We were looking at just a geographical location,
[3511.0s] having enough room for all the teens of Flatternouch.
[3515.0s] It was an unusually high teen population
[3519.0s] in Flatternouch.
[3520.0s] And I'd like to say low vandalism numbers.
[3524.0s] And we just kind of felt like teens are always overlooked.
[3528.0s] You know?
[3531.0s] Yeah, I understand.
[3534.0s] It's like, why do we have to share the spotlight
[3536.0s] with a whole bunch of carriages
[3538.0s] that don't even race and you can't even buy them?
[3541.0s] Like, they're just showing off, you know?
[3543.0s] That's right.
[3544.0s] Okay, well, I mean, first question.
[3546.0s] Did you go to Flatternouch City Hall
[3548.0s] and get a permit for the day?
[3550.0s] We did.
[3551.0s] They said that the Hillip Summer Carriage Show,
[3555.0s] the inaugural biannual sponsored by Baja Maniacs,
[3559.0s] paid more so that they superseded the teens.
[3564.0s] And that's, like, not fair,
[3565.0s] because that's, like, not how it's supposed to work.
[3567.0s] We're always being discriminated against, man.
[3569.0s] I hear that one of ours got punched in the face,
[3574.0s] like, really hard by someone.
[3577.0s] It's not okay.
[3578.0s] It's not okay.
[3579.0s] And we could blame for everything.
[3580.0s] Someone who was trying to save them from a portal or...
[3583.0s] Look, the reason that they gave was weak.
[3586.0s] It doesn't matter.
[3587.0s] It was weak sauce.
[3588.0s] You know, I don't know what you two think,
[3590.0s] but I agree.
[3591.0s] I mean, I don't disagree.
[3593.0s] If they already had the permit,
[3595.0s] you can't just be like,
[3596.0s] well, I've got a cool carriage show.
[3598.0s] Well, it should be a first-come, first-serve basis.
[3600.0s] First-come, first-serve.
[3601.0s] Political vice.
[3603.0s] Money talks, viners walk.
[3605.0s] You know?
[3606.0s] Like, it's just like that.
[3608.0s] I don't say it's right.
[3610.0s] It's just kind of the way business works.
[3612.0s] Well, I don't believe government should be run like a business.
[3615.0s] I think a government is a totally different thing,
[3617.0s] and its main priority should be taking care of the people
[3620.0s] who, you know, use their money.
[3623.0s] And that includes the teens.
[3624.0s] Teens count.
[3625.0s] So, like, what would you have us do?
[3627.0s] Yeah, what would we have us...
[3629.0s] Well, you could ask...
[3631.0s] I'm getting mixed messages.
[3633.0s] Like, some of you are talking money talks,
[3635.0s] viners walk.
[3636.0s] Some of you are saying,
[3637.0s] down with...
[3638.0s] down with Hillop.
[3640.0s] Listen, we just want to have our time to shine,
[3643.0s] and this is the only week we can do it,
[3645.0s] because next week, it's the nude,
[3648.0s] or the rude, nude rally,
[3650.0s] or the nude-rude rally.
[3651.0s] They change it up year to year,
[3653.0s] but, like, same thing.
[3654.0s] They're just, like, naked and rude.
[3656.0s] Sometimes they're more naked.
[3658.0s] Sometimes they're more rude and also naked.
[3660.0s] I mean, we support that.
[3662.0s] They have their week.
[3663.0s] This was going to be ours.
[3665.0s] This was going to be both trains' week.
[3667.0s] Teens are a lot different.
[3668.0s] They don't want to be around the cool carriages.
[3670.0s] They don't want to go to the nude-rude...
[3672.0s] nude-rude rally.
[3674.0s] Well, we do do that.
[3675.0s] It's not that we don't want to go
[3676.0s] to the crude-rude-nude rally.
[3677.0s] It's that we want to...
[3678.0s] Oh, just that it's already occupied.
[3680.0s] Yeah.
[3681.0s] Okay, gotcha.
[3682.0s] This is not an argument for them.
[3683.0s] And we take it to another convention center,
[3685.0s] but, like, Knitter's Anonymous is happening.
[3687.0s] Pilots are us.
[3689.0s] Wait, how does a convention
[3691.0s] have an anonymous aspect to it?
[3694.0s] They wear bags over their heads.
[3696.0s] Yeah, paper bags.
[3697.0s] Oh, okay, yeah.
[3698.0s] And they got the eyeholes out.
[3699.0s] And we can't do it the week after that
[3701.0s] because then it's a sick garter fashion show,
[3703.0s] and I mean, like...
[3705.0s] You can't move to sick garter fashion show.
[3707.0s] That's been going on for, like, longer than I was born.
[3710.0s] I mean, did you mean the sock-garter fashion show?
[3712.0s] Yeah.
[3713.0s] Yeah.
[3714.0s] No.
[3715.0s] No, they're like, well, it's sick.
[3717.0s] You know?
[3718.0s] Oh, the sick garters.
[3719.0s] Sick.
[3720.0s] Maybe one after the other.
[3721.0s] So we get to see the sock-garter fashion show.
[3723.0s] And then they get sick because really...
[3726.0s] No, no, no.
[3727.0s] It's sick, dude.
[3728.0s] Like, remember how we talked about the slang and stuff?
[3731.0s] So it's, like, totally sick,
[3733.0s] and you get to see, like, so many legs.
[3735.0s] Narrow.
[3739.0s] Russ was never actually a teen, you guys.
[3743.0s] His programming didn't start till he was 19.
[3746.0s] He came out 30.
[3751.0s] I have a suggestion.
[3753.0s] Yo, please.
[3754.0s] I grew up in a monastery, and it was quite restrictive,
[3757.0s] but I feel like even by those standards,
[3759.0s] your amount of rebelliousness is very low.
[3766.0s] What if you just had Teen Week without a permit?
[3771.0s] Whenever you want.
[3773.0s] Whoa.
[3774.0s] Wherever you want.
[3775.0s] I mean...
[3776.0s] I mean, that's a possibility.
[3778.0s] You could just have it, like, in the clearing out there.
[3780.0s] I was gonna suggest down here in the caves,
[3782.0s] but there's gonna be some health department issues with that, I think.
[3784.0s] Yeah, no, there's some people showing up later.
[3786.0s] You don't wanna be here.
[3787.0s] Yeah, you don't wanna mess around with that, but...
[3790.0s] Okay, but hold on.
[3791.0s] There's, like, the bean fields,
[3793.0s] and then what if nobody comes to Teen Week
[3796.0s] and recognizes how good they have it here
[3799.0s] at Flagenhoff Nurse?
[3802.0s] Flattanoosh! Flattanoosh!
[3804.0s] Flattanoosh!
[3805.0s] I just moved here not too long ago,
[3806.0s] but, like, I'm really passionate about it.
[3808.0s] Yeah, you heard about Teen Week,
[3810.0s] and you immediately got on the panel.
[3813.0s] They got it so good here.
[3815.0s] Other teens, like, really do some, like, rebellious stuff,
[3818.0s] like you just said.
[3819.0s] Oh, so you don't...
[3820.0s] Well, I want people to recognize.
[3822.0s] So maybe you can help, like, arrange with...
[3829.0s] I can't remember what we're doing anymore.
[3831.0s] Maybe you can help arrange...
[3833.0s] Tell him to move it.
[3835.0s] Yeah, move it to next month.
[3837.0s] Get out the way. Get out the way, Hillop.
[3839.0s] Why don't you just gather up all the teens and take over?
[3843.0s] Hold on, we do outnumber the grown-ups.
[3845.0s] We have an abnormally high population count.
[3849.0s] You said there's a very large teen population.
[3850.0s] We just kind of flock here.
[3852.0s] Get it?
[3853.0s] So I'm just saying, you could...
[3856.0s] All right.
[3857.0s] What's the help of, though, but, like, really?
[3859.0s] Gather up the teens, go down there,
[3860.0s] check out all the sick carriages, and then just...
[3863.0s] And then just stay there and, like, do your thing.
[3865.0s] Stay there, express yourselves through art,
[3867.0s] maybe, like, with sullen looks
[3869.0s] or, like, ill-advised makeup looks.
[3871.0s] Like a sit-in?
[3873.0s] Is that what that is?
[3874.0s] Where you just, like, come in,
[3875.0s] but you're not going to, like, do anything.
[3877.0s] You're really going to do your thing?
[3878.0s] We've already done something, though.
[3880.0s] Yeah, okay, we're going to have to clean that up, I think.
[3882.0s] Okay, so maybe we go back...
[3883.0s] We're giving ourselves bad names.
[3885.0s] Maybe we go back and we fix the tires and wheels
[3887.0s] because we're also excellent craftsmen.
[3889.0s] Okay, yeah, but hold on, hold on.
[3890.0s] Because of the abnormally high teen count.
[3892.0s] What if we came in with a flash mob first?
[3895.0s] Okay, we come in.
[3896.0s] We've been rehearsing.
[3898.0s] Yeah, oh, of course we have.
[3899.0s] It's teen week.
[3900.0s] And then maybe we, like, won't get as much, like,
[3903.0s] in trouble for all the vandalism and stuff.
[3905.0s] Because they'll be so excited
[3906.0s] there's a flash mob.
[3907.0s] Everybody loves a flash mob.
[3908.0s] Everybody loves a flash mob.
[3911.0s] I do not like flash mob.
[3914.0s] What if the flash mob serves as a distraction
[3919.0s] while other teens fix all the wheels?
[3923.0s] Oh, shit.
[3924.0s] And then it's like they were never even warned.
[3926.0s] All right, okay.
[3928.0s] Flash mobs are very topical.
[3930.0s] I think that's, like, subterfuge
[3932.0s] or something like that, right?
[3933.0s] One thing's going on and then another thing's going on.
[3937.0s] Wow.
[3939.0s] You know, I thought, like, I could join.
[3941.0s] Like, I only need to see dance events.
[3943.0s] And this may surprise you, Elia,
[3945.0s] but I have quite the, like, regular feet.
[3948.0s] Like, they are not both left.
[3951.0s] I didn't know.
[3952.0s] Do you like to sort of express yourself
[3954.0s] through the power of movement?
[3956.0s] I thought it was...
[3957.0s] I mean, your dance or your...
[3959.0s] Your fighting is quite, like, balletic.
[3962.0s] So I'm not surprised that...
[3964.0s] I'm very glad you noticed.
[3966.0s] I'm not surprised you'd be good at dancing.
[3968.0s] Not like interpretive dance.
[3969.0s] That looks very weird.
[3972.0s] But, like, you show me a step, I can totally do.
[3976.0s] Can Night Hunter join your flash mob?
[3978.0s] Yeah, of course.
[3979.0s] We're going to need people to really lead the troop.
[3983.0s] Because, you know, you're going to come in and be like,
[3985.0s] hey, we caught them.
[3987.0s] And then...
[3989.0s] The flash mob.
[3991.0s] Oh, who are you now?
[3993.0s] I'm still the team.
[3995.0s] He's just so tired.
[3997.0s] I'm just so tired.
[3998.0s] So tired.
[3999.0s] I did get punched a lot by Perseus there.
[4002.0s] You did.
[4003.0s] It was just very...
[4004.0s] Sorry, I'm so sorry.
[4006.0s] This is jumpscare.
[4007.0s] You cannot do that to someone expect them not to, you know, react.
[4011.0s] But let us do the flash mob.
[4013.0s] Very excited.
[4014.0s] Have not done flash mob since...
[4016.0s] Dancing, wash mob, cleaning,
[4020.0s] Simultaneously...
[4022.0s] Carpentry mob, carpentering.
[4025.0s] Flash mob with mob.
[4028.0s] You do not use permanent paint, yes?
[4031.0s] No, no, we don't use permanent paint around here.
[4034.0s] Everything washes away in the rain.
[4036.0s] Not everything.
[4038.0s] This is a cave.
[4039.0s] There's not a lot of rain.
[4042.0s] Everybody huddles up, whispers...
[4047.0s] Looking up and over their shoulder.
[4049.0s] And then we fade back to Flaternouge,
[4053.0s] who you hear as you approach,
[4056.0s] with your mobs of teens following behind you,
[4060.0s] just sobs from everybody in the background.
[4066.0s] And then hillop off in the distance.
[4068.0s] Oh, it's going to be okay.
[4069.0s] We'll get it all sorted out.
[4071.0s] Oh my god, Beatrice still crying.
[4073.0s] Still crying.
[4074.0s] Oh, and I'm not with you.
[4075.0s] But still crying, Beatrice.
[4080.0s] What music starts to play as the teens,
[4084.0s] because some of the teens are going to have to mingle in the crowd,
[4088.0s] and then the music will start,
[4090.0s] and then the dancing will start, and...
[4093.0s] And popping up in the center is Opal.
[4098.0s] Leading, the flash mob.
[4100.0s] The flash mob.
[4102.0s] He didn't get separated from you,
[4104.0s] or you didn't separate from him,
[4106.0s] he separated from you,
[4108.0s] because he was supposed to be the headliner for this flash mob.
[4114.0s] Yeah, that sounds right.
[4116.0s] I came in like a flash mob.
[4120.0s] That'd be a really slow song to flash mob, too,
[4122.0s] and I want to see it.
[4124.0s] Yeah, me too.
[4125.0s] And yes, Wrecking Ball, of course, starts up.
[4130.0s] Is Opal, like, lip syncing to it?
[4134.0s] Yeah, no, he's not actually syncing it.
[4136.0s] He's lip syncing to it.
[4138.0s] Perfect.
[4139.0s] Miley Cyrus is over in the corner, obviously.
[4141.0s] They paid her, but said you couldn't be on stage.
[4144.0s] Right, they just wanted her for the vocals,
[4146.0s] and then Opal will perform.
[4148.0s] And then the experience.
[4149.0s] Yes.
[4150.0s] The experience.
[4151.0s] Miley Cyrus is doing it for the exposure.
[4155.0s] And she's like hiding behind the teal one.
[4157.0s] Turns out we can't afford to really pay you, but...
[4160.0s] I rolled two performance checks.
[4161.0s] One was for Opal, which was an eight,
[4163.0s] and one was for Miley Cyrus, which was a natural 20.
[4166.0s] So it worked out very well.
[4169.0s] So it sounds unbelievable.
[4172.0s] A love no one can deny.
[4175.0s] Okay, who's leading the flash mob?
[4177.0s] Night Hunter, you're leading the flash mob?
[4179.0s] No.
[4180.0s] I thought you were leading the flash mob.
[4181.0s] I thought Opal was leading the flash mob.
[4182.0s] No, Opal's leading, he's got the song going.
[4184.0s] So we've got the flash mob.
[4185.0s] So he's just up there like, don't you ever see?
[4189.0s] Yes.
[4191.0s] Yes, but not actually see.
[4192.0s] All right, well then, yes, Night Hunter's from center.
[4195.0s] And then...
[4197.0s] Oh, there's got to be like a remix, right?
[4199.0s] Yep, yep, yep. Remix starts.
[4201.0s] So we went from some like powerful,
[4205.0s] slow kind of incredible vocals from Miley Cyrus
[4209.0s] to like, to trust fall.
[4212.0s] Oh, trust fall.
[4213.0s] I was thinking like Hataway.
[4215.0s] Yes, totally.
[4217.0s] I know I'm so old.
[4219.0s] I was like, this is how we do it.
[4221.0s] And I'm like, why is that the first song?
[4224.0s] Because it's the right song.
[4225.0s] Because this is how we're doing now.
[4228.0s] Okay, so you're leading the flash mob.
[4230.0s] You're going to roll performance.
[4232.0s] Who's leading?
[4233.0s] Raise yourself.
[4234.0s] I'm leading the mob squad.
[4236.0s] Yeah, I think I'm leading the mob squad.
[4238.0s] And then we need carpentry as well.
[4240.0s] I'm in for carpentry.
[4242.0s] For performance.
[4243.0s] Yes, with advantage because you have such support from on stage.
[4247.0s] Obviously, Opal's granting bardic inspiration here.
[4250.0s] Teen is good because otherwise it's a five.
[4252.0s] And I have a plus one in performance, which is exciting.
[4255.0s] Absolutely.
[4257.0s] Okay, so the flash mob is happening.
[4259.0s] People are moving.
[4260.0s] They're snapping.
[4261.0s] It's West Side Story, but not because it's also to...
[4264.0s] When you're a teen, you're a teen all the way through the first cigarette.
[4269.0s] Some might say this is an even more important story.
[4272.0s] Yes.
[4273.0s] Should I be doing sleight of hand because I'm more sneakily cleaning?
[4277.0s] Yes, sleight of hand for the...
[4279.0s] Behind your back.
[4281.0s] Yeah, just like...
[4284.0s] Yeah, we got to hit a keytar solo at this point.
[4287.0s] So yeah, it's transitioned into Axel Foley.
[4298.0s] What do you got for mops?
[4299.0s] 15.
[4300.0s] 15 on the mops.
[4302.0s] Everybody's moving through the shadows.
[4304.0s] They're cleaning up all the dicks.
[4305.0s] There's no dicks to be seen anywhere.
[4307.0s] And how would we do it over in Carpentry?
[4312.0s] Carpentry Squad's good.
[4314.0s] I don't know what to roll for Carpentry.
[4317.0s] Well, you've got to hit those beats, right?
[4319.0s] Because if you're hammering on the low notes, they're going to notice.
[4324.0s] True.
[4325.0s] Absolutely.
[4326.0s] So we got either...
[4327.0s] What's that?
[4328.0s] Performance or...
[4330.0s] Stealth.
[4331.0s] Stealth is good.
[4333.0s] Survival could be another one, because that's using some...
[4335.0s] There's no dicks in town.
[4337.0s] All the dicks are back in Playbickets.
[4339.0s] That's right.
[4341.0s] Yeah, we'll do stealth to try to time our repairs for the big beats and the drops and all the other things.
[4352.0s] Roll some stealth for me.
[4356.0s] That is a 14.
[4359.0s] Love it.
[4360.0s] So on...
[4364.0s] It's all working together and wheels are going up and you see...
[4369.0s] Nobody else sees, but you know.
[4371.0s] The group that knows, knows.
[4372.0s] And all the carriages are returning to their natural state.
[4375.0s] Well, we're noticing too that they need to do more hammering.
[4378.0s] So we transition to shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot.
[4382.0s] Because you guys need a little more of that.
[4385.0s] And then we're going to do shots after.
[4387.0s] Fireball specifically.
[4389.0s] And out of nowhere, right at the big triumphant finale, Flameykin shoots up out of the center underneath Opal and says,
[4396.0s] Fireball!
[4397.0s] And a fireball goes up into the air.
[4399.0s] Everyone freaks out, especially the teens.
[4402.0s] They're like, yeah!
[4404.0s] Everybody's screaming, hooting, and hollering, and they all look around and they see the teens.
[4408.0s] And Hillock comes over and says, are these the teens that did it?
[4411.0s] The what?
[4412.0s] He said, the...
[4413.0s] The what exactly?
[4415.0s] That destroyed Hillock's summer carriage show by an annual inaugural sponsored by Baja Maniacs.
[4422.0s] You need to sentence structure better.
[4425.0s] But look, what do you talk about?
[4428.0s] Yeah, do you have any evidence of these?
[4430.0s] Everything looks great.
[4431.0s] The carriages look sick.
[4433.0s] There's no dicks.
[4435.0s] And there's no broken wheels.
[4438.0s] That's weird.
[4439.0s] That's weird, right?
[4441.0s] Beatrice says, that's weird.
[4443.0s] Okay, Beatrice, calm down.
[4445.0s] It's all a bit.
[4446.0s] Okay.
[4447.0s] Yeah, it's much.
[4448.0s] It's much.
[4449.0s] You have other life things going on?
[4450.0s] I do not think this is about carriage, really.
[4452.0s] No.
[4453.0s] Perhaps you talk to a therapist.
[4454.0s] It's a deep life story that I have going on.
[4456.0s] No, that's okay.
[4457.0s] I can't hear you from over here.
[4458.0s] Okay.
[4459.0s] There's a nice man outside a cave in the woods.
[4461.0s] I bet he'd want to talk about it.
[4463.0s] I'll go find him.
[4464.0s] I get the feeling he'd talk all day if you gave him the chance.
[4466.0s] Yeah, 110%.
[4468.0s] Sounds good.
[4470.0s] All right, Beatrice walks off.
[4471.0s] It's all fine.
[4472.0s] But you know what we really think is that you were real.
[4477.0s] You were real dick.
[4479.0s] You were.
[4480.0s] I beg your excuse me, what?
[4481.0s] I said what I said.
[4482.0s] It was supposed to be Teen Week.
[4484.0s] They had a permit and everything.
[4486.0s] Yeah, but I paid more.
[4487.0s] This is not how permit works.
[4489.0s] Okay.
[4490.0s] There are rules.
[4491.0s] Okay, so what is your solution then?
[4493.0s] We just have two parties in the middle of this flattanoosh?
[4497.0s] Perhaps you have more.
[4499.0s] What is it when lots of people come?
[4502.0s] Like attendants?
[4504.0s] Higher attendance.
[4505.0s] Oh, higher attendance.
[4506.0s] Younger, cooler attendance.
[4508.0s] Those are the people who would really set the stage for the next version of the
[4513.0s] Philip Summer carriage.
[4515.0s] That's very nice of you to try that, Percy.
[4517.0s] That is nice.
[4518.0s] Good job.
[4519.0s] But I think perhaps collaboration is a good idea.
[4523.0s] That sounds pretty nice.
[4526.0s] I'd like to collaborate.
[4527.0s] Just ask Glim.
[4528.0s] Glim knows how much we like to collaborate.
[4530.0s] She was supposed to be here, but she's not.
[4533.0s] That does not sound like good collaboration.
[4535.0s] So are you advocating for us to stop, collaborate, and listen?
[4539.0s] Hillop's back with a brand new invention.
[4541.0s] It's Teen Week.
[4543.0s] I can't finish it when you end with Teen Week.
[4546.0s] What is that?
[4548.0s] Pass it off.
[4550.0s] And we fade out.
[4552.0s] Every time.
[4554.0s] Fucking Russ.
[4555.0s] I thought it was week, not like Teen Week orange.
[4558.0s] Like he just always throws in some word that's impossible.
[4562.0s] Teen Week Syzygy.
[4564.0s] Why would you say that?
[4566.0s] Oh, no, you know what?
[4567.0s] I could rhyme that.
[4568.0s] Synergy.
[4569.0s] Yeah.
[4570.0s] And as we fade out over everybody just confused over the last sentence that
[4574.0s] Hillop said.
[4575.0s] The teens are getting long.
[4577.0s] The summer carriage show is happening.
[4579.0s] I'm sorry.
[4580.0s] What?
[4581.0s] What are the teens doing?
[4582.0s] The teens are getting long?
[4583.0s] Getting along.
[4584.0s] That's not because you said it.
[4586.0s] Carl and I both heard it.
[4587.0s] I was like, will the teens...
[4589.0s] Carl heard it.
[4590.0s] Really?
[4591.0s] Carl doesn't know what's going on.
[4595.0s] Carl knows.
[4597.0s] And we fade out on the scene as the teens are getting along with all of the
[4601.0s] summer carriage show, folks, which may or may not be back for its biannual
[4606.0s] second, second annual, biannual return.
[4609.0s] Guys, there's so much fucking going on in the back pools of those carriages.
[4613.0s] I got to say.
[4614.0s] There's a whole sub Flammie Kins festival that is happening simultaneously with
[4623.0s] the carriage show.
[4624.0s] If you know, you know.
[4625.0s] You know.
[4626.0s] Yeah.
[4627.0s] If you don't, you're Beatrice and you're out there.
[4629.0s] I don't want to talk to Grancis.

[4721.0s] OK, bye.
[4725.0s] This is a post credit scene now.
[4727.0s] We see the back door of one of the carriages open and Night
[4731.0s] Hunter's boots step down and the door closes.
[4735.0s] She does move fast.
[4747.0s] Setting you up to use it as a toilet.
[4749.0s] I had read with hand slapping against steamed windows and then
[4753.0s] you said that rest.
[4754.0s] And I was like, Oh, God, did we just it happen?
[4757.0s] It just happened.
[4758.0s] It just did.
[4759.0s] It happened.
[4760.0s] Oh, my God.
[4761.0s] We got it.
