[0.0s] Just hold on right there. Don't move. Don't move a muscle unless you're driving. Continue to drive.
[5.2s] Dumbgeons and Dragons will be starting right after this.
[9.3s] Kav, you and Bench are leaned up against each other, standing inside of Oak's childhood bedroom.
[18.7s] On the right, you have a bed that seems slightly too small for the size of person that Oak is,
[27.4s] tucked in with a very neat plaid duvet. And to the left, there is what some could only describe
[37.1s] as a shrine, with a very lovely portrait of a lovely young woman who you've never met.
[49.2s] This woman has a short black bob cut. She's dressed in very professional attire,
[58.5s] button-down suit top, button-down blazer. Thank you.
[64.6s] She's wearing a power pantsuit.
[66.7s] She's wearing a power pantsuit. There are stacks of pristine files all around this shrine.
[76.4s] There are glowing crystal orbs around the perimeter of the frame.
[84.8s] It's very tasteful. It's very tasteful. It's not weird in any sense of the term.
[93.1s] And also, I'm picturing that character from The Incredibles.
[98.3s] Me too.
[98.7s] Yes, Edna.
[99.4s] Okay.
[99.7s] Enid.
[100.1s] Very much.
[100.6s] Edna?
[101.0s] Edna.
[104.0s] I was also thinking that.
[106.6s] Does it look like a vanity mirror that's surrounded in light bulbs?
[110.9s] Yes.
[111.2s] Okay.
[111.8s] But instead of being a mirror, it's a picture.
[115.4s] It's a picture of that lady from The Incredibles.
[118.9s] Of that lady from The Incredibles. That's what you see. There's a dresser, often to the
[124.8s] right. I'm not going to tell you how you live your life, but all the drawers are closed.
[131.4s] Everything in this room is in pristine order. There's not a piece of dirty laundry outside
[138.2s] of the basket. And Bench, who's leaning up against you, says,
[143.8s] uh, has a problem with, what is this? What am I looking at?
[152.3s] I have no idea, but I guess I owe you 10 bucks because, yeah,
[155.8s] he still does live with his parents.
[159.4s] Well.
[159.8s] Did you get to meet his parents when you got to the house for them to let you into his bedroom?
[165.0s] A moment goes by and there's a little knock at the door and a very small older woman with
[175.0s] very curly gray hair and a purple shawl and a tray that has two very tiny teacups
[186.5s] and a teapot that's very floral in nature comes walking into the room and says,
[196.1s] well, as I said, Oak isn't here, but I brought you some tea and some biscuits.
[200.8s] Uh, you are the nice boys who Oak went out with you just last night, right?
[206.6s] Yep. That's us. We had a great time with your son. Very, very fun, fun guy.
[211.0s] Yeah. Oak is a great, great guy. I'm just going to thank you for the tea.
[216.2s] Which one of you is, uh, uh, what does Oak, a best friend, Cav?
[222.2s] Oh, uh, yeah, that's, that's me. I'm, I'm Cav.
[225.4s] I've heard so much about you. Uh, you do have some improvements to make.
[229.9s] So Oak says, uh, but you're getting there.
[234.2s] That's, um, really nice to hear.
[237.5s] Well, uh, enjoy the tea. Uh, I don't know when Oak's going to be home,
[243.1s] um, but thank you for bringing his bag back. If, if he comes while you're here,
[248.3s] I'll just send him right up. Uh, you, um, mill about.
[253.2s] He holds up his teacup and does a little, uh, little cheersies with Bench and just
[257.8s] downs the hatch and then doesn't realize it's as hot as it is and like starts to like cough.
[262.7s] Oh dear. Oh dear. I'll get some water. Don't move. Help, help your friend.
[269.9s] And the woman rushes out of the room.
[272.6s] Bench is just going shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot.
[277.4s] Everybody. Ain't no party like a Cavalron party.
[284.6s] Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons, a D&D fifth edition actual play podcast.
[289.8s] I'm your dungeon master Russ More, he, him and Dumbgeons and Dragons stars Amy More
[294.7s] as Alydin. She, her.
[296.5s] I'm imagining them like baguettes because why wouldn't I?
[300.1s] Tom Laird as Kavlaran Goldweave, he, him.
[303.7s] No, we are friends. I just didn't think it was relevant.
[306.2s] And Carla Maxted as Bonwyn Everbane. She, her.
[309.6s] I'd like everyone to just maybe give the one word to describe how they're feeling.
[314.6s] Dumbgeons and Dragons is a D&D production and supported by our patrons
[318.6s] at patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast. Join us today.
[322.1s] Seven day free trial. And now fuck it. Let's play.
[335.9s] We're at Everbane's and the room is not as full as one would expect on a business
[343.0s] association meeting night. As Bonwyn, you look around and you see that there are a few
[350.1s] regulars. There's Nissa, the farrier. Thane, of course, is there.
[355.1s] June from Boston's mill has made their way down.
[359.0s] Neven, who helped you set up. And Chuckle Sock Snickersoul,
[364.6s] the cobbler in town has made it out for tonight's event.
[368.9s] You had put out several more chairs expecting more of the local artisans
[373.5s] and business owners to come by and discuss if not the concerns that they have
[379.1s] at the very least to all criticize the meeting that the mayor called earlier in the day.
[385.4s] Neven comes up to you and says, well, I don't know if anybody else is coming.
[390.0s] We've given them given them quite some time. This might be it for tonight.
[393.4s] This might be it. I would have thought after that amazing speech this morning that
[401.0s] more people would come for, you know, the yelling at each other that we normally devolve
[405.8s] into. What worries me about the low turnout is not just that the crustless sandwiches
[414.1s] are going to go bad unless Thane eats them all, which hopefully they will.
[421.0s] But also, what worries me is are people just so used to it that they can't even be mad
[427.3s] anymore? They're not even angry. It's just apathy now.
[431.8s] Yeah, I would think nothing's going to change. Well, maybe that's maybe that's the point we
[436.6s] start with is how's everybody feeling? Just like everybody loves a good icebreaker.
[443.9s] Maybe see like in one word, what what are you feeling?
[449.2s] That's how you think I should start the meeting.
[451.2s] That's how I think you should start the meeting.
[453.1s] OK, even I mean, you've never you always give great advice. You're very successful
[457.9s] at business, though. OK, yes, yes, I am. Let's do it.
[461.8s] Everyone, if you could just. Yeah, I think we're going to start.
[464.8s] It's sort of a low turnout in light of the mayor's speech this morning.
[470.9s] Taxes going up again, just the general sort of state of, you know, the business community.
[481.4s] I guess what we're going to do is just take a moment to think and reflect
[485.9s] and then we're going to go around in a circle and I'd like everyone
[489.0s] to just maybe give the one word to describe how they're feeling.
[492.7s] And we are, of course, this was Neven's idea. So we are going to start with Neven.
[498.5s] Oh, yes. I'm feeling in one word.
[504.0s] One word, right. That was what you would like to start with.
[508.0s] One word. I'm feeling
[509.6s] frustrated. Great June.
[517.3s] Trepidatious. Oh, that's a good word.
[521.2s] That's a good word. Yeah. OK, Thane.
[524.9s] Well, I mean, I'm hungry. Great. We got a lot of sandwiches.
[531.8s] So yeah, I saw that there's going to be some leftovers. It's great.
[535.1s] It's perfect. Chuck, how are you doing?
[539.6s] Unsettled. OK, and Nissa, what do you think?
[546.5s] Oh, yeah. Yep, I'm feeling demoralized.
[558.4s] OK, and I guess I'll go last and I guess pissed.
[565.7s] Yeah. Not the fun drunk kind,
[567.8s] but like the WTF kind. I'm not usually in for that kind of language,
[575.1s] but I have to say it is called for. It's just it's either that or I just,
[581.7s] I don't know, give up. And I don't want to do that.
[584.2s] So I'm going to hold on to anger as sort of a motivating force and keep working hard,
[592.2s] keep serving my customers well. And what can we do to improve the situation?
[599.4s] Nissa here. I've been hearing rumblings that a lot of people are thinking about just
[606.0s] leaving and going to Kingstown. Like there's more opportunity there and less
[613.4s] bullshit. My cousin Farb left,
[617.4s] went to Kingstown. Yeah, and how are they liking it?
[620.6s] Haven't heard from them since. Well, that's either good or not good.
[624.8s] You should probably hopefully a good sign. Maybe send a letter.
[628.3s] No, we weren't that close. I see.
[631.9s] Yeah, I mean, I don't want that. Of course, I don't want that to happen
[636.2s] because I don't like I can't. This is third generation.
[639.9s] I can't leave Everbane, so I'm in. And you have all been here
[646.0s] working. I mean, second generation June. How you've been.
[650.9s] We've all been here a long time, so forever.
[653.9s] Yeah, it's frustrating.
[656.0s] I was here before the Cobbles were laid down in the streets.
[659.0s] So what do we do? First thought, best thought riot.
[667.2s] That's a good one. Talking with your mouth full.
[670.4s] Sorry. Well, you caught me at a good moment there.
[675.5s] The egg salad. Quite nice. You should all try it.
[679.0s] Riots. Good. I also had a similar thought of down with the government, but
[686.6s] that seems like it's going to need more than how many are we here?
[690.7s] Six people. Probably more than six people,
[693.6s] especially since all those soldiers have come in to deal with the pirates or whatever.
[699.8s] Or take our money. Yeah.
[701.9s] Are they dealing with the pirates?
[703.6s] I haven't seen a single pirate.
[705.4s] Yeah. I mean, that could be proof that they are dealing with them.
[711.4s] I don't know. I think that's what they want you to think.
[713.5s] I say, fuck the police.
[717.5s] You heard me.
[718.7s] Yeah, June. I mean, I'm with you, but what do we actually do?
[724.6s] Because there is only the six of us and like, you know,
[727.3s] the maybe six other people we were hoping were going to be here.
[730.2s] So that's 12.
[732.4s] Yeah, it's interesting that Bench didn't show up. He said he was going to be here.
[735.8s] Yeah.
[737.4s] Oh, I saw him and that new guy last night, drunk as a skunk.
[743.1s] Oh, yeah, they were painting the town.
[745.4s] With their vomit.
[746.6s] Yeah.
[747.6s] They didn't invite anybody else out? That's unfortunate.
[751.4s] There was a third one with them, the one from the city hall.
[755.6s] Oh, yes, that uptight little guy.
[758.5s] The sniffly one who's all about the making sure the i's are dotted
[763.8s] and the t's are crossed on the papers.
[765.5s] Yeah, and like submitting things on time.
[768.0s] Oak. You guys mean oak?
[769.6s] Yeah, that's the one.
[770.7s] Oh my goodness.
[771.3s] Yeah, that's the one.
[772.3s] Before the school shut down, well, we went to school together
[776.8s] and he was just like that. Like when he was 12 years old,
[780.7s] he was exactly like that.
[783.0s] Oh, so he'd be the one that's like, hey, teacher, you didn't assign us homework.
[787.6s] Yes, I was just going to say exactly that.
[789.8s] He literally did that.
[792.2s] You know, like a kind person.
[796.2s] But, oh, not really fun on a night out, I wouldn't think.
[800.9s] You can't trust a guy whose clothes are that pressed.
[804.3s] That's what I always say.
[805.5s] And I taught him when he was in the third grade.
[809.1s] Um, neither here.
[811.2s] Okay, everybody, you don't actually have to like
[813.0s] announce who you are at a time because there's just the six of us.
[816.5s] Well, usually there's somebody taking minutes
[818.5s] and then it's important afterwards.
[820.4s] Oh, you're right. You're right.
[822.0s] I apologize.
[822.9s] Also, Thayne, could you please start taking notes?
[825.4s] Yep.
[825.8s] Perfect, because I know I volunteered last time, but I'm just not good with it.
[830.8s] It was off the rails, like going back over those minutes there, chuckle socks.
[835.7s] Eligible.
[836.7s] Eligible and some really sort of graphic, funny,
[844.0s] but probably inappropriate doodles.
[846.9s] Well, there was just like a lot of double entendres that were happening last time.
[852.1s] And so I just, I got distracted.
[854.9s] As one does.
[856.9s] Yeah, on the notes.
[858.0s] Um, anyways, what I was going to say is that obviously Bench, not here right now,
[865.4s] but a friend of the business association has an in with,
[870.2s] if he's out painting the town, so to speak.
[873.4s] Has an in with somebody who this is,
[877.1s] we're talking about the same one who's come to investigate, right?
[880.3s] Right. Thayne, you were telling us about this, that like,
[883.6s] there's like a new guy who's from Kingstown and he's like investigating.
[886.6s] Kingstown's got the tattoos and yeah.
[889.8s] So that's, oh, well we should ask.
[892.6s] One in the same, I believe.
[894.2s] So rather than riot, you're suggesting perhaps we ask for an introduction to the new,
[901.7s] maybe gonna help from the inside guy.
[907.3s] Yeah. Yeah, that's exactly what I'm saying.
[909.5s] Yeah, we can turn him and have a spy.
[912.2s] Maybe we don't even need to turn him.
[913.9s] He's from Kingstown, right?
[916.0s] Well, I feel like I'm ambivalent about whether that's good or bad.
[919.9s] Well, I mean, what was your, your cousin's name was it?
[925.3s] Florp.
[926.5s] Florp?
[928.0s] Yep. That's, that's what I said.
[930.4s] Well, I mean, Florp's on yet to be confirmed,
[935.4s] but could be having a great time in Kingstown.
[937.4s] That's enough for me to say that, you know,
[939.7s] maybe we at least need an introduction, figure out where they stand.
[943.8s] And if Bench likes them, I mean, Bench is.
[946.0s] Bench is one of the best.
[947.4s] Yeah. Okay, so plan A, introduction to investigator from Kingstown.
[956.1s] Plan B.
[957.6s] Riot and Molotov cocktails.
[960.0s] Whoa.
[960.7s] You got it, June.
[962.1s] Yes. You, and you work at the mill,
[964.4s] so you've got a lot of flammables out there, so.
[966.8s] I sure do.
[968.1s] Okay. Well, let's strike that from the minutes there, Thane.
[972.4s] Just in case, just in case something comes back to us.
[976.1s] Oh, no paper trail.
[977.7s] Yeah, I know.
[978.4s] And I think this was before you started taking notes,
[981.4s] but maybe when June said fuck the police, maybe just get rid of that too.
[985.0s] Got it. Yep.
[985.6s] Perfect.
[986.1s] A lot of my stuff ends up being stricken.
[989.1s] You're too powerful, June. You're too powerful.
[991.7s] That's true.
[993.0s] Time to take a break and have ourselves some fun in the middle.
[999.5s] Hey, friends.
[1000.3s] We just wanted to dip in and say, hey, thanks for listening.
[1003.6s] We appreciate you being here for this new season,
[1006.1s] and it's a great time for you to tell all your friends who you've been like,
[1010.3s] oh gosh, you should listen to this thing that's nearly 300 episodes long.
[1014.3s] Now's a great time because it's five.
[1016.6s] Come in on the ground floor.
[1018.7s] Yeah, this is easier onboarding when there's just like five episodes instead of hundreds,
[1023.2s] and then the great thing is there is still the hundreds.
[1026.5s] Yes, so once they fall in love.
[1027.6s] So once they like us, there's so much of that delicious, delicious content.
[1032.7s] So good.
[1034.2s] But with this new and super awesome season that we got going on,
[1039.9s] we are doing a downtime that's a little different,
[1043.0s] and if you don't know what downtime is,
[1045.6s] Carla's going to tell you.
[1047.4s] Amy doesn't know what downtime is either.
[1048.7s] No, I do know.
[1049.5s] I was waiting to see which of us you were going to tell
[1054.3s] the world was going to talk about the downtime.
[1056.7s] So after we record our episodes, immediately after,
[1060.5s] we have a little debrief that we call Dungeon's Downtime that's released to patrons,
[1067.6s] and we are doing it a little bit different this season,
[1071.2s] coming out the same day.
[1073.5s] So you can listen to the episode and then immediately listen to a debrief on the episode,
[1077.8s] and sometimes that means like just laughing
[1081.1s] and then talking about the future for our characters and what we want to happen.
[1085.5s] It's real deep.
[1086.3s] I don't know.
[1086.7s] Are they still in the box?
[1087.8s] Really?
[1088.3s] Okay, I guess one day maybe they'll get out of the box.
[1091.5s] And just say that it's not spoilers talking about the future,
[1094.2s] it's hopes for talking about getting out of the box.
[1096.9s] Or like maybe, or what about this idea?
[1100.6s] We brainstormed during this time,
[1102.3s] and so it could be a little sneak peek into the future,
[1107.1s] or we could have completely let go whatever ideas have happened.
[1111.5s] Or we could completely forget, and they're just gone.
[1114.9s] And then in six months, you'll be like,
[1116.7s] what about that idea?
[1117.7s] And we'll be like, and that's the fun thing.
[1120.2s] We'll say, that's a great idea you came up with all by yourself.
[1123.5s] Then I would just gaslight them and be like, I never said that.
[1127.9s] There was a legitimate recording.
[1130.7s] We have proof, Amy.
[1131.6s] I don't believe you.
[1133.4s] But also, we used to do down times,
[1135.5s] and they were kind of like short little snippets,
[1137.2s] but we're really, we beefed them up.
[1139.1s] Talking like 10 minutes, maybe a little longer,
[1142.1s] really getting into the, like digging into the meat.
[1145.1s] No, that's not how that's said.
[1146.2s] Yeah, you're digging into the meat.
[1147.5s] Digging into the meat.
[1148.0s] We're digging into the meat.
[1149.1s] Yeah, that's right.
[1149.5s] Just carving it out.
[1150.7s] It's just like some big meat party.
[1152.3s] It's like some badgers just digging in there.
[1154.4s] Yep.
[1155.3s] And with that, you can find those.
[1157.2s] Took a gross turn there.
[1158.6s] Yeah, I'm sorry I said meat party.
[1160.1s] Yeah, you can find those at patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast.

[1198.6s] So you too can be like Jeffrey and join us today at patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast.
[1202.4s] And now, I'm pretty sure that's the end of the downtime.
[1206.1s] So we'll get you back to the episode and you have a great week
[1209.9s] and we'll talk to you soon.
[1211.7s] Love you.
[1212.1s] Bye.
[1213.5s] Love you.
[1213.9s] Bye.
[1214.4s] That's the end of the downtime?
[1217.7s] And that's what I said.
[1219.8s] Yeah.
[1220.4s] That's the middle downtime now.
[1224.2s] Oh my God.
[1224.7s] It's a downtime.
[1225.2s] Now we're doing a downtime in the middle.
[1226.9s] We can't do it.
[1227.5s] Oh my God.
[1228.4s] Back away slowly.
[1237.3s] We find ourselves in an alleyway.
[1242.0s] There's a pile of crates stacked up, some old milk cartons.
[1247.7s] And a dumpster.
[1250.0s] And a door gets kicked open.
[1253.5s] And a stout half-elf, lovely middle-aged woman comes out.
[1261.3s] She's got an apron on.
[1263.5s] It's all stained with pasta sauce and different foods.
[1267.0s] And is carrying out a tray of what looks like some stale bread.
[1271.9s] She's making her way over to the dumpster and she pauses in the middle of the street.
[1276.9s] And looks both ways and then clears her throat.
[1284.7s] Alydin peeks out from behind the dumpster.
[1289.1s] Looks around.
[1291.0s] Looks like it's clear there, dear.
[1294.0s] Thank you so much, Miss Figglesworth.
[1296.2s] Oh, of course, dear.
[1297.8s] How are you doing?
[1298.8s] How are the other kids doing?
[1300.3s] I haven't seen many of them around lately.
[1303.0s] You know, there's been a lot of other soldiers
[1305.3s] roaming around these days.
[1306.6s] They have increased patrols, yeah.
[1308.5s] It has made it hard for the kids to, you know, get out and...
[1312.7s] You've been staying out of Dase's way?
[1315.4s] Oh, yeah.
[1319.2s] Yeah, I think so.
[1320.3s] Okay.
[1321.9s] Well, I've got a few here for you.
[1324.7s] She lowers the tray down for you.
[1327.8s] Oh, thank you so much.
[1329.5s] You know, I don't have to take all of these.
[1332.0s] I think just three would do, I think so.
[1334.2s] They're just going in...
[1335.3s] They're just going in the bin.
[1337.3s] It's closing time.
[1340.5s] No one's going to miss these ones.
[1342.4s] Take them, fill up, and here.
[1346.3s] And she reaches into her pocket
[1348.1s] and pulls out this nicely wrapped cupcake
[1352.3s] and gives it to you and says,
[1354.7s] share it, keep it for yourself, whatever you need.
[1357.9s] Oh, now I've got that big decision to make.
[1360.5s] And Alydin is taking the...
[1365.6s] I'm imagining them like,
[1367.0s] baguettes, because why wouldn't I?
[1370.2s] Because we're a baguette team.
[1371.9s] This is a baguette is like the official bread of Dumbgeons and Dragons,
[1375.9s] so it's obviously a baguette.
[1378.1s] And visit us at patreon.com slash dunndragoncast
[1380.5s] for your free baguette.
[1382.3s] Offer not valid.
[1383.4s] Offer complete bullshit.
[1385.7s] Alydin takes the baguettes
[1388.3s] and starts to put them in their bucket
[1389.5s] and starts saying,
[1390.4s] I got a bucket full, a bucket full of baguettes.
[1393.6s] And it's just kind of humming to herself.
[1395.9s] Someone overhears this song you're singing to yourself
[1399.1s] and they get on their phone and they say,
[1401.3s] Natasha, it's your cousin, Marvin, listen to this.
[1415.2s] It was Natasha Bedingfield, right?
[1417.0s] I'm pretty sure.
[1417.6s] Yeah, I think it was.
[1421.5s] We pan back down from the window above.
[1425.6s] Alydin says, same time next week,
[1429.8s] maybe if you have any leftovers.
[1433.4s] Of course, yeah, I'll see you then.
[1435.8s] Okay, thanks.
[1438.8s] If you get in trouble,
[1440.3s] you know you can come back here, okay?
[1442.9s] Yeah, okay, but I don't get in trouble.
[1445.9s] I know.
[1447.6s] She turns and starts heading back towards the door.
[1451.8s] And Alydin scurries away.
[1464.1s] Kavlaran and Bench,
[1466.0s] you're standing outside of Oak's house now.
[1468.8s] You're just kind of fanning your tongue off
[1471.1s] from the way too hot tea that was served to you
[1475.1s] up in Oak's childhood bedroom.
[1479.1s] So we went to the office and he was not there.
[1483.7s] We found the bag, which we...
[1487.0s] Did we leave the bag with Mrs. Oak?
[1491.0s] It didn't really make sense to take it.
[1493.5s] Yeah, so we left the bag
[1496.3s] and then we came to the house
[1498.3s] and I don't find Oak.
[1500.0s] Maybe the worst happened.
[1504.5s] Wait, what's the worst?
[1506.0s] He fell asleep in the dumpster somewhere
[1508.4s] and then got picked up and taken down to the landfill.
[1512.0s] I mean, that would be pretty bad.
[1514.2s] Not that I know from personal experience or anything.
[1518.1s] Yeah, no.
[1519.6s] I feel like that is the worst case scenario.
[1522.3s] That's the absolute worst case thing that could have happened.
[1524.7s] I thought you were going to escalate
[1529.2s] to him being thrown in the trash
[1531.5s] and then the trash being thrown into the compactor.
[1533.9s] And it's a compactor and now he's just a small, cute...
[1535.5s] Yeah, and then there's space aliens that come out of it
[1537.9s] and he didn't have a Han Solo with him to escape.
[1540.4s] Exactly.
[1541.6s] But yeah, glad to know that the worst case scenario
[1543.6s] is just a little bit of dumpster sleeping.
[1545.1s] That's good.
[1546.0s] Yeah.
[1548.3s] I don't know where else we could go to find him.
[1555.0s] Any good sandwich places around here?
[1557.2s] You know, he's always going on about sandwiches.
[1560.0s] Well, there's probably a pretty good sandwich place.
[1564.9s] Let's start walking.
[1566.3s] If only we had like a clue or something to go off of,
[1569.2s] like as a place where...
[1571.9s] Like, oh, because he's a meticulous person
[1573.9s] and he didn't have anything in his bag.
[1576.4s] Well, he had like the one empty potion
[1579.4s] and the one full potion.
[1581.1s] He did have the empty potion in his bag.
[1583.3s] Wait, what?
[1583.9s] Did I not show you?
[1586.2s] No.
[1587.6s] You didn't tell me that there was a clue.
[1591.8s] Did you keep the potion or did you give it back to Mrs. Oak?
[1594.5s] Do we have to go talk to...
[1595.6s] I didn't think it was much of a clue.
[1596.9s] No, I kept them in my bag just in case we needed to check on them or
[1604.4s] lost and found them.
[1605.6s] I don't know.
[1607.3s] Let me see the fucking potions.
[1609.9s] God!
[1610.9s] Get to the potions!
[1612.2s] Here I am.
[1613.5s] Give me the potions.
[1614.8s] Here I am, walking around streets,
[1616.8s] feeling like I got hit by a fucking four-horse carriage
[1622.1s] and you're like withholding information from me.
[1626.0s] Well, no, I wasn't withholding.
[1627.5s] I just didn't...
[1628.3s] I thought we were friends.
[1629.7s] No, we are friends.
[1630.7s] I just didn't think it was relevant.
[1632.2s] I'm trying to get my business back.
[1633.7s] Any clue is a good clue.
[1634.8s] Wait, wait, wait, wait!
[1635.8s] Okay, all right, here's the potions.
[1637.5s] God damn it.
[1638.7s] Oh, yeah, okay.
[1640.5s] He takes a look at the potions and gives them a shake
[1644.1s] and then looks at the insignia on top and says,
[1646.0s] ah, this is sweet apothecary.
[1648.2s] Maybe they know when he got them
[1649.7s] or when he was in there last.
[1650.9s] Maybe this is like maybe we went there last night.
[1653.2s] Or maybe what they do.
[1654.2s] Or maybe what they do.
[1655.2s] Maybe what they do.
[1656.1s] Yeah, are you very concerned with what the vials do?
[1660.9s] Well, no, but just, you know,
[1663.1s] surely if they sold it to him,
[1664.4s] they'll be able to tell us.
[1666.0s] Sure, yeah.
[1667.4s] Just another way to find out, too.
[1670.7s] Well, I'm just gonna drink a random potion.
[1674.8s] Coward.
[1675.2s] Didn't you hear that happen to Florp a while back?
[1678.0s] Oh, is that what happened to Florp?
[1680.0s] I thought it went to Kingstown.
[1682.1s] No, no, no, no, no, no.
[1683.1s] On his way, he stopped at the potion shop
[1686.0s] and then they had like a deal of the day
[1687.6s] on a mystery potion.
[1689.4s] And you know, quite the gambler, that Florp.
[1691.2s] So he took them up on it.
[1692.8s] Oh, shit.
[1694.0s] Oh, June's gonna be so upset.
[1695.9s] We're not, take this to our grave.
[1699.1s] Oh, okay.
[1700.2s] We will never tell June
[1702.6s] that her dear cousin Florp,
[1704.6s] something happened to them because of a potion.
[1707.5s] From what I was told,
[1708.8s] he just kind of blinked out of existence.
[1711.1s] Wait, what?
