1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,480
Really cutting it close, getting in under the wire.

2
00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:05,600
The party's still happening, but the ceremony's long gone.

3
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:07,360
That's okay, we've got more for you.

4
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:08,759
Coming up in just a moment,

5
00:00:08,759 --> 00:00:10,720
Dumbgeons and Dragons will be right back.

6
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:14,560
The bridal parties filtered back in

7
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:17,359
and taken their seat at the head table.

8
00:00:17,359 --> 00:00:21,120
Everybody's, some appetizers have been served,

9
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,120
drinks have been flowing.

10
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,400
Certain people are perhaps getting a little sloppy,

11
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,360
being that the drinking started

12
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,640
well before the ceremony of this.

13
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:33,920
Not only started, was encouraged.

14
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:38,920
Was thoroughly encouraged and pushed to keep everybody,

15
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,600
which is counterintuitive, but we did it anyways.

16
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,520
That's a Goldweave wedding for you.

17
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:45,719
That's right.

18
00:00:45,719 --> 00:00:48,760
Kavlaran, you, some time ago,

19
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,320
well before the bridal party had come back in,

20
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,320
had gone looking for your father's fourth wife.

21
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:00,560
Dame Corvella, who you saw enter

22
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,799
from her distinct attire, which was all black,

23
00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:09,799
big, long, wide brimmed hat, black veil of her own.

24
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,280
I mean, there was an air of coolness as it entered,

25
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,519
and by coolness, I mean coldness.

26
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,719
You've disappeared down the hallway

27
00:01:19,719 --> 00:01:22,560
and you can't find her anywhere.

28
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:27,600
You've headed back out towards the seating area.

29
00:01:28,519 --> 00:01:31,120
You see that everybody's kind of milling back in,

30
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,960
but you know, there's a bit of tension within you.

31
00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:37,359
You catch your father's eye and he looks over to you

32
00:01:37,359 --> 00:01:39,599
and gives a smile and another thumbs up,

33
00:01:39,599 --> 00:01:41,120
like things going, oh.

34
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,960
Given the old neck, not good sign.

35
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:49,960
Yeah, he leans over to his new bride, Guendevere,

36
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:51,960
and you see him whisper something

37
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,920
and he excuses himself and gets up and comes over to you

38
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,480
and says, what seems to be the problem?

39
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,200
She is here somewhere.

40
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,280
Somewhere.

41
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,360
Somewhere, not sure where, lost her.

42
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,840
It's not a large place, Kvlarne, what happened?

43
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,879
Well, you see, I was, oh, by the way,

44
00:02:11,879 --> 00:02:14,280
Mom, Eloan, and Lady Emma are all like a team now,

45
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,879
so that's a thing you're gonna have to deal with.

46
00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:17,560
Anyway, moving on.

47
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,879
I saw her come in and I was busy with the team,

48
00:02:21,359 --> 00:02:23,319
team X mom.

49
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:25,120
Yes, yes.

50
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,919
And I saw her come in and then she kind of disappeared

51
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,639
into the back and I went and looked for her,

52
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,599
but I can't find her anywhere.

53
00:02:31,599 --> 00:02:34,519
Great, well, we'll all keep our heads on a swivel.

54
00:02:36,719 --> 00:02:39,800
Nothing good comes when she disappears.

55
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:40,879
How did she look?

56
00:02:40,879 --> 00:02:44,639
Did she come dressed appropriately for the wedding?

57
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:49,159
Funny story, totally dressed in black

58
00:02:49,159 --> 00:02:51,520
with a huge hat with a black veil on it.

59
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,240
Yeah, no, that's what I completely expected.

60
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,400
So I guess she's dressed appropriately then.

61
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:58,960
Yeah, no, 100%.

62
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,840
I'm glad she took that to heart

63
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,000
and that's how she came.

64
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,519
All right, well, you let me know if you find her

65
00:03:06,519 --> 00:03:07,359
and I will do the same.

66
00:03:07,359 --> 00:03:10,000
I'll give you a signal, signal, signal, signal,

67
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,879
like a caca, caca, tuky, tuky.

68
00:03:11,879 --> 00:03:13,359
I think it's perfect.

69
00:03:13,359 --> 00:03:16,719
Perfect, absolutely the best choice of action there.

70
00:03:16,719 --> 00:03:18,599
That's what we did when you were a kid

71
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,560
and it's what we will do today.

72
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,079
So if it's looking bad with, what did you call them?

73
00:03:25,079 --> 00:03:27,159
The X squad, X team?

74
00:03:27,159 --> 00:03:29,079
I call them like the X moms.

75
00:03:29,079 --> 00:03:31,959
X moms, X moms, I like that.

76
00:03:31,959 --> 00:03:34,000
So the X moms,

77
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,799
if they look like they're getting unruly

78
00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:40,799
or we see Corvela making a move for any cutlery?

79
00:03:43,039 --> 00:03:45,039
Any cutlery? Sure, sure.

80
00:03:45,039 --> 00:03:46,599
Question for you, just,

81
00:03:46,639 --> 00:03:48,039
because I see there's like a couple,

82
00:03:48,039 --> 00:03:50,680
like kind of balconies up across the way.

83
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,639
How good of a shot is she?

84
00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:53,840
Just out of curiosity.

85
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,840
Well, she did, she was, you know,

86
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:01,400
top of the, top of her class.

87
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,000
Cool, that's great info to have.

88
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,439
Yeah, she doesn't have any problems with you.

89
00:04:07,439 --> 00:04:10,879
We did reinforce the glass here.

90
00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:13,799
It is a lot of glass, this is,

91
00:04:13,799 --> 00:04:16,319
but I mean, you saw her come into the building.

92
00:04:17,079 --> 00:04:19,959
So why would she be across the street?

93
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:22,319
That's not, that's not something that people do

94
00:04:22,319 --> 00:04:24,719
is come in to distract and then leave.

95
00:04:24,719 --> 00:04:27,000
Look, I mean, you always called her a witch.

96
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,839
Does she, like, can she do magic stuff?

97
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,319
I didn't always call her a witch.

98
00:04:30,319 --> 00:04:31,800
I called her a witch. Okay, at the end,

99
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,959
you always referred to her as a witch.

100
00:04:33,959 --> 00:04:34,879
She was a loving,

101
00:04:34,879 --> 00:04:37,039
Is there any fact in that?

102
00:04:39,039 --> 00:04:40,639
I don't think so.

103
00:04:40,639 --> 00:04:42,879
She did have a lot of,

104
00:04:42,879 --> 00:04:44,920
Let's see why you guys didn't make it.

105
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,199
She did have a lot of pots.

106
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:48,759
Don't know a thing about her.

107
00:04:50,759 --> 00:04:51,879
She had a lot of pots.

108
00:04:51,879 --> 00:04:53,280
She had a lot of pots.

109
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:56,600
She made a lot of brews, a lot of stews.

110
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:57,600
Uh-huh, uh-huh.

111
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,439
So, you know, thinking back on it.

112
00:04:59,439 --> 00:05:01,200
Were there a lot of jars with names like

113
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,000
Eye of Newt and stuff like that?

114
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,040
There were a lot of jars,

115
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,879
I couldn't necessarily- Coriander.

116
00:05:08,879 --> 00:05:10,080
Cilantro.

117
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,080
I didn't know the names of all of them

118
00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:16,719
or read all the languages that they were in.

119
00:05:16,719 --> 00:05:18,359
Oh, they were different languages.

120
00:05:18,359 --> 00:05:22,120
It was international cuisine that she made most often.

121
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,839
Okay, in like a big soup pot?

122
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,079
Yeah, it was large.

123
00:05:26,079 --> 00:05:29,399
Yeah, like, are you saying like cauldron?

124
00:05:29,399 --> 00:05:30,319
Is that the word you're looking for?

125
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:32,519
Cauldron, that's the word I was looking for.

126
00:05:32,519 --> 00:05:34,439
She had a lot of definitely a witch then.

127
00:05:34,439 --> 00:05:35,279
That's great.

128
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,039
This is just, it keeps getting better.

129
00:05:37,039 --> 00:05:38,719
Yeah, no, you're doing a great job.

130
00:05:38,719 --> 00:05:40,599
I love this for you.

131
00:05:40,599 --> 00:05:42,079
Hey, have you seen Gary?

132
00:05:42,079 --> 00:05:44,479
He's supposed to start the speeches.

133
00:05:44,479 --> 00:05:46,240
You need to keep track of Gary.

134
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,079
Look, I realize-

135
00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:48,919
Yeah, Cav.

136
00:05:50,159 --> 00:05:51,199
Thank you.

137
00:05:51,199 --> 00:05:52,079
No, you're right.

138
00:05:52,079 --> 00:05:54,159
I gave you four people to keep track of.

139
00:05:54,159 --> 00:05:56,240
I just need to keep track of Gary and-

140
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:57,079

This is actually pathetic.

152
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,600
I can see why you don't care anymore.

153
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,600
Amy More as Eloin the Second.

154
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:23,920
This is my time.

155

00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:27,880
Oh, no, no, no.

Do you have a minute?

Oh, we are about ready to start some speeches.

174
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,440
Yeah, we're a little bit behind schedule here, Eloin.

175
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,000
This'll just take a minute.

176
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,600
We're just gonna have to hold that for the end.

177
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,080
All the questions will be held

178
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:10,359

Don't let him deny you.

180
00:07:11,639 --> 00:07:13,519
Say what you need to say.

181
00:07:13,519 --> 00:07:15,159
Oh, that's emboldening.

182
00:07:15,159 --> 00:07:17,839
I see you've all decided to-

183
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,319
Well, we have a lot in common.

184
00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:22,000
Yes, no, you do.

185
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,879
I have no disagreement.

186
00:07:23,879 --> 00:07:24,719
Yes, of course.

187
00:07:24,719 --> 00:07:27,839
I have some time.

188
00:07:27,839 --> 00:07:29,199
I haven't found Gary yet.

189
00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:31,399
Gary's the one to be the emcee,

190
00:07:31,399 --> 00:07:34,959
so if we don't find Gary, we can't.

191
00:07:34,959 --> 00:07:37,560
He gives like a wink to you, Cav,

192
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,560
and you'll be like, maybe you find Gary.

193
00:07:40,839 --> 00:07:43,199
So you're stepping on my foot repeatedly,

194
00:07:43,199 --> 00:07:44,759
like, find Gary.

195
00:07:44,759 --> 00:07:46,680
He's not finding Gary.

196
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,439
But now he's connecting find Gary

197
00:07:48,439 --> 00:07:50,600
to fix this wife situation,

198
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,639
so now it's back in his court.

199
00:07:52,639 --> 00:07:53,840
Yeah, that's true.

200
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,399
Oh, he's a sneaky one.

201
00:07:55,399 --> 00:07:56,240
Smooth operator.

202
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:57,920
He's a manipulator.

203
00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,720
Light bulb goes off.

204
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,120
Cav scuttles away to try to find this fucking Gary.

205
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,879
All right, you've dispersed.

206
00:08:04,879 --> 00:08:05,879
You're gonna go find Gary

207
00:08:05,879 --> 00:08:07,519
and keep an eye out for Corvela.

208
00:08:09,719 --> 00:08:10,560
Why?

209
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:14,480
Why?

210
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,519
What happened between us?

211
00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:19,839
Well, Eleon,

212
00:08:21,399 --> 00:08:24,240
sometimes two people

213
00:08:25,439 --> 00:08:28,120
no longer see eye to eye,

214
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,839
and drift apart.

215
00:08:30,759 --> 00:08:33,360
I fear that's what happened with us.

216
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,360
What do you mean you fear that's what's happened with us?

217
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,560
Well, I'm a poet and I didn't know it.

218
00:08:41,560 --> 00:08:46,560
I appreciate you being here, Eleon.

219
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,120
We've discussed this many times.

220
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,560
No, we haven't.

221
00:08:51,560 --> 00:08:55,200
Well, at least once, I'm sure, right?

222
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,480
Yes, all that time together,

223
00:08:58,480 --> 00:08:59,480
and you're right.

224
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:00,960
I should be just satisfied

225
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,159
with that one conversation we had

226
00:09:03,159 --> 00:09:06,919
as to why you think

227
00:09:06,919 --> 00:09:08,719
that we're done.

228
00:09:08,719 --> 00:09:09,559
Well,

229
00:09:10,959 --> 00:09:12,279
yes.

230
00:09:12,279 --> 00:09:14,839
Well, I did think that we were done.

231
00:09:14,839 --> 00:09:16,759
I thought that perhaps,

232
00:09:18,039 --> 00:09:21,600
you know, you would be better off without me.

233
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:22,879
It's not you. Oh, please.

234
00:09:22,879 --> 00:09:24,000
It's me. Jeez.

235
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:24,839
Please.

236
00:09:24,839 --> 00:09:27,399
Obviously, it's you. You're embarrassing yourself.

237
00:09:27,399 --> 00:09:31,240
Obviously, we are at your fifth successful wedding.

238
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,079
If we could just keep our voices.

239
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,360
Oh, if we could just keep our voices, of course.

240
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,840
I appreciate that you RSVP'd.

241
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,680
What?

242
00:09:40,879 --> 00:09:41,840
What did I do wrong?

243
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:42,720
I can change.

244
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:43,560
Nothing.

245
00:09:43,560 --> 00:09:44,400
No.

246
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:45,480
You don't have to do that.

247
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:46,960
You don't have to change.

248
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:48,600
Nothing to change.

249
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:49,440
He's terrible.

250
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,280
I'm terrible.

251
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:51,120
Do you need to change your drink out

252
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,200
and I switch the drinks?

253
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,040
Yes.

254
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,920
How are we enjoying the specialty?

255
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:57,759
Oh, no, no.

256
00:09:57,759 --> 00:09:59,320
You're not getting out of it that easily.

257
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:00,160
Yeah, no.

258
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,000
Also, it's gross.

259
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,040
Back on topic.

260
00:10:03,039 --> 00:10:06,159
If our love didn't mean anything to you, just say it.

261
00:10:06,159 --> 00:10:08,120
Our love did mean.

262
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:08,959
No. Yes.

263
00:10:08,959 --> 00:10:11,399
Because when love is real,

264
00:10:11,399 --> 00:10:16,399
you can give somebody a good enough answer

265
00:10:16,399 --> 00:10:19,399
so that they are not tearing themselves apart

266
00:10:19,399 --> 00:10:24,240
every single day through countless weddings.

267
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:25,199
You know what?

268
00:10:25,199 --> 00:10:26,919
I'm sorry. One of these times,

269
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,079
I'm not gonna show up to your wedding.

270
00:10:33,039 --> 00:10:37,639
She bustles away in a big swirl of her skirt.

271
00:10:37,639 --> 00:10:39,279
Swirl is a word now.

272
00:10:39,279 --> 00:10:40,120
That's right.

273
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,799
Cav comes running back in with Garry,

274
00:10:43,799 --> 00:10:45,559
fireman carried over his shoulder

275
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,120
and dumps him in front.

276
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:47,959
Got him.

277
00:10:47,959 --> 00:10:48,799
Got him.

278
00:10:48,799 --> 00:10:49,639
Found Garry.

279
00:10:49,639 --> 00:10:50,559
Garry's here now.

280
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:51,959
Lovely to see you, Garry.

281
00:10:51,959 --> 00:10:54,120
We're just having a word with Harrison.

282
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,480
It'll just be a moment.

283
00:10:56,639 --> 00:11:01,199
Garry, if you could please prepare the speeches.

284
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:02,520
I...

285
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,680
Congratulations on being promoted to best man.

286
00:11:04,680 --> 00:11:05,520
Good for you.

287
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:06,360
Oh, thanks.

288
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:07,200
Good job.

289
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,040
Yeah, I know.

290
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:08,879
Sometimes a demotion.

291
00:11:08,879 --> 00:11:09,720
Sometimes you get back up and...

292
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:10,720
Garry, go get Garry.

293
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:11,560
No, yeah, no.

294
00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:12,640
Of course, I have one job.

295
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:13,600
I'm gonna go do it.

296
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,120
And he heads off.

297
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:15,960
Look, I...

298
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,360
It's a part-time job.

299
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,040
He's right in it.

300
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:20,879
Splish it.

301
00:11:20,879 --> 00:11:22,280
Semi-pro best man.

302
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,160
He also works for him.

303
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,360
He's been working his way up the company ladder

304
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,440
every time somebody dies.

305
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:30,280
I...

306
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,240
Are a coward.

307
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:34,080
Am a coward.

308
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:34,920
And...

309
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:35,760
Yes.

310
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,680
I don't know if I have...

311
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,080
An honest bone in your body.

312
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:41,920
Thank you.

313
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,600
A spine to say what you mean when you're...

314
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,600
A good enough explanation for why I love the way I do.

315
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:51,800
It's...

316
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,280
Poorly.

317
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:54,120
Yeah.

318
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:54,960
Yes.

319
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:55,880
I'm surprised I have a kid from you

320
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,400
considering the lack of balls.

321
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:01,640
Okay.

322
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,600
Ellen's over at the bar, but she even heard that

323
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,360
and was like, damn!

324
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:08,200
Snap!

325
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,520
All you hear is like, yes, queen!

326
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,000
In the background.

327
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:18,000
I owe you more than what I've given you.

328
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:20,320
I do.

329
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:21,160
All of you.

330
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,160
And looks over to Ellen.

331
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,920
I know that, and I am sorry.

332
00:12:26,599 --> 00:12:28,240
I loved...

333
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:29,599
This is actually pathetic.

334
00:12:29,599 --> 00:12:32,240
I can see why you don't care anymore.

335
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:33,079
Exactly.

336
00:12:33,959 --> 00:12:34,799
Exactly.

337
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,319
Every conversation like this has happened, you know,

338
00:12:41,319 --> 00:12:45,039
after we split, picking up Cav, dropping him off.

339
00:12:45,039 --> 00:12:47,519
Oh, you must have had to deal with him constantly.

340
00:12:47,519 --> 00:12:49,000
I'm so sorry.

341
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:49,839
It wasn't even...

342
00:12:49,839 --> 00:12:51,879
Co-parenting with him?

343
00:12:51,879 --> 00:12:53,159
Exactly.

344
00:12:53,159 --> 00:12:55,079
Oh, I dodged a bullet.

345
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:55,920
You did.

346
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,360
You absolutely did.

347
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,280
Oh, I'm so glad Four's here.

348
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,879
Where's Four?

349
00:13:00,879 --> 00:13:02,720
It's a great question.

350
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,040
At that, you turn and look,

351
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,400
and like, Harrison was there for the...

352
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,320
You did, but then you look for Corvela

353
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,160
and don't see her, and he's...

354
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,000
Of course.

355
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:12,960
Back at the head table.

356
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,680
He is a coward, as you can see.

357
00:13:14,680 --> 00:13:15,520
100%.

358
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:16,879
This is not surprising.

359
00:13:16,879 --> 00:13:19,879
You hear Gary, like, tap the microphone.

360
00:13:19,879 --> 00:13:24,200
The microphone.

361
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,360
The thing that's right in front of your face?

362
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,200
The...

363
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,039
Sorry, this is the best word to forget.

364
00:13:34,039 --> 00:13:36,840
The one my whole life has revolved around for 20 years.

365
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:37,679
I got it.

366
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,200
It's not our glass, let's get it together.

367
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,080
You hear Gary tap the microphone,

368
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,279
he says, if everybody can take their seats,

369
00:13:46,279 --> 00:13:47,519
we're gonna start some speeches.

370
00:13:47,519 --> 00:13:49,519
And it looks as if, well,

371
00:13:50,159 --> 00:13:51,720
we have the usual, the best man's speech,

372
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,759
which, he kind of covers it.

373
00:13:54,759 --> 00:13:56,840
Am I doing it, or is Cav doing it?

374
00:13:58,279 --> 00:14:00,799
Cav's already done one tonight, I guess.

375
00:14:00,799 --> 00:14:03,840
I guess you, Harrison shrugs.

376
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:07,159
So, the best man's speech, and then it says here

377
00:14:07,159 --> 00:14:09,559
that we're supposed to just pass the microphone around

378
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,399
to anybody who has things to say.

379
00:14:11,399 --> 00:14:13,559
Oh, Eloan Perks, up.

380
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,559
So, take your seats, just, you know,

381
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,559
find a buddy, grab another drink,

382
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:19,960
and we'll start in just a moment.

383
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,240
Dad, dad, who planned this wedding?

384
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:26,000
Gwendovere.

385
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:26,840
Benny Benson.

386
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,000
When Gwendovere got together with Benny,

387
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,320
and they just went to town and said...

388
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,920
You know, ever since Benny split from the Jets,

389
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:36,760
hasn't been the same.

390
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,600
It's really gone off book, yeah.

391
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,440
Everybody grabs some food, and they grab their drinks,

392
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,480
and everybody sits down, and Gary gets back up to speak,

393
00:14:45,519 --> 00:14:47,920
and he says, well, I've known,

394
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,720
I've known Harrison for three weddings now.

395
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:54,560
Me too.

396
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:58,440
Thank you, Yuzel.

397
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,720
Yes, yes, it was a lovely day,

398
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:06,720
and Harrison's given the same stop now hand signal.

399
00:15:08,039 --> 00:15:09,440
But we're gonna move right along.

400
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,440
Harrison's a great friend who treats his friends like,

401
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,080
well, like they're the best man,

402
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,360
and look, he's a guy, he's a complicated man,

403
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,560
and I've run out of nice things to say, sir,

404
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,400
and yeah, he works for me.

405
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,240
I have one nice thing to say.

406
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:31,080
One.

407
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,680
Which was, he's a complicated man.

408
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:35,520
Yes.

409
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:36,360
Yeah.

410
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,040
You know what, I was demoted.

411
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,000
Kavlaran, perhaps you would like to take over.

412
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,759
I'd love to, Gare, thanks, thanks, bud.

413
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,360
Have all of the controls.

414
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:53,200
Welcome to the middle.

415
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:54,679
You can do whatever you want.

416
00:15:54,679 --> 00:15:56,240
In the middle, it's whatever you want.

417
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,080
Welcome to the middle.

418
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,000
Russ just declared that he has all of the controls,

419
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,200
so nobody else is in control.

420
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,440
That's right, no.

421
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:03,759
I mean, if you're playing the home game,

422
00:16:03,759 --> 00:16:06,240
you know he's had all the controls the whole time.

423
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,080
Obviously.

424
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:07,919
So it's fine.

425
00:16:07,919 --> 00:16:08,740
That's right.

426
00:16:08,740 --> 00:16:10,120
But also, he's married to me, so he.

427
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:11,879
Really, this has been Amy's long con

428
00:16:11,879 --> 00:16:14,439
to have this game run.

429
00:16:14,439 --> 00:16:15,279
That's right.

430
00:16:15,279 --> 00:16:17,600
This is just a project that Amy wanted to do

431
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,159
that Russ has been enacting for the last 10 years.

432
00:16:21,159 --> 00:16:22,000
I love it.

433
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,320
I mean, sounds like me.

434
00:16:26,879 --> 00:16:29,879
How many podcasts can I give him to make?

435
00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:31,799
I guess I owe him maybe $10.

436
00:16:36,399 --> 00:16:39,000
To trading places, here's your dollar.

437
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,240
This middle that you're listening to

438
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,320
is in this episode that you're listening to,

439
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,620
which comes out at the start of our Patreon sale,

440
00:16:48,620 --> 00:16:50,240
or very close there too.

441
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,519

all in celebration of our very own Carla Maxton.

446
00:17:05,039 --> 00:17:07,599
Not really, but that's pretty exciting.

447
00:17:07,799 --> 00:17:09,079
50% off a year?

448
00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:09,919
That's a great deal.

449
00:17:09,919 --> 00:17:10,740
Yeah, that's really good.

450
00:17:10,740 --> 00:17:11,579
That's crazy.

451
00:17:11,579 --> 00:17:12,399
Do it, I know.

452
00:17:12,399 --> 00:17:13,480
Does that make them a member?

453
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:14,319
Well, yeah.

454
00:17:14,319 --> 00:17:16,240
I mean, I already had every record,

455
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:17,359
but should I?

456
00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:19,159
Now's the time.

457
00:17:19,159 --> 00:17:20,000
Now's the time.

458
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:20,819
What's the time?

459
00:17:20,819 --> 00:17:21,659
That's wild.

460
00:17:21,659 --> 00:17:25,119
You're gonna save boatloads by just signing up today.

461
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,079
Yeah, Carla, you're being very humble.

462
00:17:28,079 --> 00:17:30,319
We actually, listeners, we actually asked Carla,

463
00:17:30,319 --> 00:17:31,839
what do you want for your birthday?

464
00:17:31,839 --> 00:17:33,439
And Carla was like,

465
00:17:33,439 --> 00:17:36,639
give a discount to our sweet, sweet patrons.

466
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:37,920
Very altruistic.

467
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,520
Very altruistic, absolutely.

468
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,759
I want more of them to join us

469
00:17:41,759 --> 00:17:44,480
and see how dumb we are.

470
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:45,320
There you go.

471
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,440
The world deserves to know just how dumb we are.

472
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:54,440
You deserve to know how this sounds unedited.

473
00:17:54,759 --> 00:17:56,920
Yeah, one hundo.

474
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,920
There are some things that still get cut out.

475
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:00,880
We're pretty good now,

476
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,860
but yeah, no, there's still some wild stuff

477
00:18:02,860 --> 00:18:04,120
that doesn't make it fair.

478
00:18:04,120 --> 00:18:05,960
Yeah.

479
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:06,840
I believe it.

480
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,559
But if you've been thinking about it,

481
00:18:08,559 --> 00:18:10,039
that's a good deal.

482
00:18:10,039 --> 00:18:11,680
Even if you just wanna dip in for the month

483
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,200
and listen to some bonus content, that'd be great.

484
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:16,319
And even if you do that whole month,

485
00:18:16,319 --> 00:18:18,519
you still get that one sweet bonus

486
00:18:18,519 --> 00:18:22,680
that everybody gets whenever you sign up for a Patreon.

487
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,840
And that's a monthly, that's an episode dedication.

488
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:26,680
Yeah, that's right.

489
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:28,079
Yeah, we've got a special one right now

490
00:18:28,079 --> 00:18:30,360
and we can get so many more with this sale coming up.

491
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:33,120
Carla, thank you again for being so altruistic.

492
00:18:33,120 --> 00:18:35,039
But now we're gonna have them lined up

493
00:18:35,079 --> 00:18:36,720
for way through 2030,

494
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,319
which means we can't stop doing the podcast

495
00:18:39,319 --> 00:18:40,799
until we get through those names.

496
00:18:40,799 --> 00:18:45,799
So looks like you owe Amy 20 bucks.

497
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,039
Commitment.

498
00:18:49,759 --> 00:18:50,599
That's right.

499
00:18:50,599 --> 00:18:51,839
And yeah, don't wait till my birthday.

500
00:18:51,839 --> 00:18:53,720
My deal's not gonna be as good as Carla's.

501
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:55,700
I am not as nice as she is.

502
00:18:55,700 --> 00:18:57,680
So you should probably get in on it now.

503
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,240
Fair. Y'all are giving out deals too?

504
00:19:02,399 --> 00:19:03,599
Untrue.

505
00:19:03,599 --> 00:19:04,440
I'm killing Jesser.

506
00:19:04,759 --> 00:19:06,480
You know who's got the best deal right now?

507
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:07,519
Who's got the best deal?

508
00:19:07,519 --> 00:19:09,360
Who's got the best deal of the month?

509
00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:12,160
The best deal of the month is what we're talking about

510
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,279
when you get that Patreon dedication.

511
00:19:14,279 --> 00:19:17,920
Today's patron, the fashionable wizard.

512
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,039
How delightful and elegant.

513
00:19:22,039 --> 00:19:26,400
I wish the fashionable wizard had a 50% off sale.

514
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:27,240
Oh my God.

515
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,960
The capes I would buy, the hats, the jeweled items.

516
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,680
My wand would be huge.

517
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,360
That's not the only sale we have going on

518
00:19:35,360 --> 00:19:37,960
for fashionable people though, is it Russ?

519
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:38,799
It is not.

520
00:19:38,799 --> 00:19:39,640
You are correct.

521
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,480
Oh, well how apropos that the fashionable wizard.

522
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,200
If you're a fashionable wizard,

523
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:47,400
you need to bedeck yourself in some high class items.

524
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,000
Wait. Bedeck?

525
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:50,840
Yes, that's correct.

526
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,039
You need to bedeck yourself.

527
00:19:53,039 --> 00:19:54,240
Bedecked, bedazzled.

528
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,519
I'm not even gonna, I can't even look it up.

529
00:19:57,519 --> 00:19:59,320
I'm not gonna disrespect Carla like that.

530
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:00,519
Bedeck is a thing.

531
00:20:00,519 --> 00:20:02,960
You've never got into bedeckery?

532
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,200
I've never bedecked.

533
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:08,120
Bedeck yourself and save some money in our dashery store,

534
00:20:08,120 --> 00:20:11,400
dumbdragons.dashery.com,

535
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,000
where you can save a percentage off of different items.

536
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,200
Like a t-shirt is how much usually?

537
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,279
$22.

538
00:20:18,279 --> 00:20:19,360
And now it's gonna be.

539
00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:20,680
$16.

540
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:21,519
Whoa.

541
00:20:21,519 --> 00:20:22,360
That's a hell of a bedecking.

542
00:20:22,360 --> 00:20:23,279
Good deal.

543
00:20:23,279 --> 00:20:24,920
That's a pretty great deal.

544
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,160
We got some old school looks.

545
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,039
We got some new school looks.

546
00:20:28,039 --> 00:20:29,559
Also guys, I looked it up real quick.

547
00:20:29,559 --> 00:20:31,920
Bedeck is a word, not crazy.

548
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,000
No, I knew I wasn't even gonna question it.

549
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,840
I questioned myself.

550
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,240
It's just, it's not very commonplace.

551
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,680
What if I told you that the kids are saying it?

552
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:41,519
They're not.

553
00:20:41,519 --> 00:20:42,360
Oh god.

554
00:20:42,360 --> 00:20:43,200
You know what?

555
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:44,039
The kids are saying it.

556
00:20:44,039 --> 00:20:46,880
I don't trust them, okay?

557
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,240
Bedecking slaps, guys, is what I'm saying.

558
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:50,080
Love it.

559
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,200

In your neck of the woods.

571
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:13,079
Or in real life.

572
00:21:13,079 --> 00:21:13,920
Or in real life.

573
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,000
We need to be fashionable.

574
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:15,839
Yep.

575
00:21:15,839 --> 00:21:16,680
All those great things.

576
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:17,519
Thanks for being here with us.

577
00:21:17,519 --> 00:21:18,360
They're gonna save so much money.

578
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:19,200
Save money on the account.

579
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:20,120
Save money on the clothes.

580
00:21:20,120 --> 00:21:21,920
They can go buy bubble gum afterwards.

581
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:22,759
Yeah, love it.

582
00:21:22,759 --> 00:21:23,599
Happy birthday, Carla.

583
00:21:23,599 --> 00:21:24,519
Thanks, friends.

584
00:21:24,519 --> 00:21:26,240

587
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:33,839
You're still here listening to us

588
00:21:33,839 --> 00:21:34,680
and that is thanks.

589
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:35,519
Love it.

590
00:21:35,519 --> 00:21:36,640
This middle's been forever.

591
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,759
So you're a trooper, thanks.

592
00:21:38,759 --> 00:21:39,599
Yeah.

593
00:21:39,599 --> 00:21:40,440
We want you here.

594
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,240
Your finger got tired from hitting that skip button

595
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,839
and now we get to say goodbye and we love you.

596
00:21:46,079 --> 00:21:46,920
We love you.

597
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,119
Patreon.com slash dumbdragoncast.

598
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:48,960
We got you again.

599
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:49,799
Bye.

600
00:21:49,799 --> 00:21:50,640
Love you, bye.

601
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:51,480
Bye.

602
00:21:52,839 --> 00:21:53,680
You know what?

603
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:54,519
Let's just do that thing

604
00:21:54,519 --> 00:21:55,759
where you're gonna pass the mic around.

605
00:21:55,759 --> 00:21:57,160
I'm into it now.

606
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:58,759
Sounds like a great plan.

607
00:21:58,759 --> 00:22:00,160
Who wants first dibs?

608
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,359
Oh, Eloin, the back.

609
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,519
There's a few people who stand up

610
00:22:06,519 --> 00:22:07,960
as you're putting your hand up

611
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,440
and are moving towards the microphone, Eloin.

612
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:11,519
What do you do?

613
00:22:11,519 --> 00:22:14,559
All right, Lordbucket, we're gonna go with you

614
00:22:14,559 --> 00:22:16,640
and then Eloin, you'll be next.

615
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,279
Yes, Lordbucket here.

616
00:22:21,279 --> 00:22:22,879
Thank you for coming everybody

617
00:22:22,879 --> 00:22:25,720
from well as far away as Vintersmouth

618
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:30,000
and probably up in the Me Mountains there.

619
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,960
I was just there last week having just a grand old time.

620
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,079
We saw some wild fauna and flora

621
00:22:37,079 --> 00:22:40,120
and it was really quite an adventure

622
00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:43,039
and I think that's what I'm gonna do more of

623
00:22:43,039 --> 00:22:44,920
in these later years in my life.

624
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,799
A marriage is like a sunset.

625
00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:49,120
Tell us about your current grandson.

626
00:22:49,120 --> 00:22:54,120
Oh, have you heard about my grandson, Marklson?

627
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,320
He is really just the sunshine in my life.

628
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,080
And well, as I was getting back to the point,

629
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:07,080
I hear you, Ezell, I'm moving on, don't worry.

630
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,360
As I was saying, a marriage is like a sunset, sunrise.

631
00:23:10,360 --> 00:23:12,200
Things are good, things are bad,

632
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:14,680
but you do it all together.

633
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,360
And well, if anybody wants to take a look

634
00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:19,840
at my slides after from the Me Mountains,

635
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,680
I will be showing them as well as a follow-up

636
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,200
group of photos of Marklson.

637
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,440
He should be making an appearance after his nap later.

638
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,519
If anybody wants to say hello, you come find him.

639
00:23:32,519 --> 00:23:37,519
All right, it's bold move to have a former wife here.

640
00:23:39,799 --> 00:23:40,640
Eloin?

641
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:41,880
Four former wives.

642
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,240
Yes.

643
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:44,080
Thank you.

644
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:47,920
Love is important.

645
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:53,920
Marriage, she's had a few to drink now.

646
00:23:55,360 --> 00:24:00,360
Marriage is not a way to say I love you.

647
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,160
You look over to Harrison's face

648
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,880
and he's got a very quizzical look about him.

649
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,600
Like he didn't understand what you just said.

650
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,200
Of course he didn't.

651
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,039
He's stupid.

652
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,279
He's stupid.

653
00:24:21,519 --> 00:24:26,519
Marriage is supposed to be sharing

654
00:24:28,599 --> 00:24:33,599
with everybody you know, all your important people

655
00:24:36,319 --> 00:24:39,079
that you love someone so much.

656
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,519
But that's all it is to you.

657
00:24:42,519 --> 00:24:47,519
All you want to do is flaunt a temporary love

658
00:24:47,759 --> 00:24:51,960
and spend ridiculous amounts of money.

659
00:24:52,839 --> 00:24:55,639
Think of the colleges you could have put Cav through.

660
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,079
Okay, Cav did go to college.

661
00:24:59,079 --> 00:25:01,720
I said colleges.

662
00:25:03,079 --> 00:25:03,920
Get it.

663
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,119
Sorry Cav, do you want to go to college?

664
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,119
Is that what this is about?

665
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,639
This is my time.

666
00:25:08,639 --> 00:25:10,639
It's a great, and actually speaking of that,

667
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,600
we've hit our three minute limit

668
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,160
so we'd like to move on.

669
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:15,200
We can come back to you.

670
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,280
Oh man, Bucket talked for like 17 minutes.

671
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,160
No, that's just, he's just the most boring person

672
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,480
in the world so it seemed like it was that long.

673
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:25,840
Listen. Let her talk.

674
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,040
All right, round two, Ellowin, let's do it.

675
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:34,040
Love is not just something that you put on like a costume

676
00:25:34,120 --> 00:25:37,600
and parade around in front of people.

677
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:42,600
Love is deep and love, and it hurts

678
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,600
and it makes you do crazy things.

679
00:25:51,360 --> 00:25:54,880
And you, ma'am, and she points to.

680
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:56,920
Gwendolyn.

681
00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:57,760
Gwendolyn.

682
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:58,680
She points to Gwendolyn.

683
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,400
Points to Gwendolyn.

684
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:02,440
I love him.

685
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:06,360
But you can do better.

686
00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:09,960
Yeah, you can.

687
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,200
And then I drop the mic and I kind of stagger off

688
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,120
with my little bottle of brown liquor.

689
00:26:16,120 --> 00:26:18,240
Okay, probably won't be getting the deposit back

690
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,160
for the AV equipment.

691
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:21,660
Not a problem though.

692
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,920
Lady Schneiderhound, you're up.

693
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,280
Cav, Lady Schneiderhound is giving her speech

694
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:32,720
and you clock the silhouetted figure of Dame Corvela

695
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,640
who doesn't enter the room

696
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,759
but is just like standing off to the sides

697
00:26:37,759 --> 00:26:39,440
looking straight at you.

698
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:46,200
And then after Lady Schneiderhound kind of wraps things up

699
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,520
and there's a small clap for what she said at the end

700
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,280
which was all you need is love, da, da, da, da, da.

701
00:26:55,140 --> 00:26:55,980
She.

702
00:26:55,980 --> 00:26:57,640
No more than that because we don't want any

703
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,400
litigious actors coming after us.

704
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:00,240
Exactly.

705
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,240
I'll take on Daphne, I won't take on the Beatles.

706
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:03,280
Fair.

707
00:27:03,319 --> 00:27:05,160
She heads back down the hallway.

708
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,039
You see her turn and like signal to you this time.

709
00:27:09,039 --> 00:27:13,879
Okay, that was the excellent Lady Schneiderhound.

710
00:27:13,879 --> 00:27:16,859
We're gonna throw it over to my dear sweet mother.

711
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:19,680
Take it away.

712
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:20,879
Welcome, take the mic.

713
00:27:20,879 --> 00:27:23,399
Thank you so much, my darling Cav.

714
00:27:23,399 --> 00:27:28,359
It is wonderful to be here to witness the third wedding

715
00:27:28,360 --> 00:27:33,360
of my only son's father and ex-husband Lord Harrison.

716
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:39,800
Is an absolute delight to be here to witness

717
00:27:40,120 --> 00:27:43,360
all of the great women that he's been with

718
00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:48,360
and the taste he has cultivated over the years

719
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,840
for younger and younger vintages of wine.

720
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:59,800
Vintages, so young, well, how young are they?

721
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,760
So young, they're still being pressed.

722
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:08,600
I don't know.

723
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:09,440
He's not.

724
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:13,800
No, but.

725
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,320
He is just like, why'd I pick this analogy, damn it.

726
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,240
But truthfully, it's great to see another

727
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,720
lavish event to celebrate love,

728
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,960
and I can't wait for the next,

729
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,720
what'd you say, Cav, where'd he go?

730
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,800
I think he said it's gonna be three more times.

731
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:35,900
Three more times.

732
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,040
And if they all do it right,

733
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:41,480
Ellowin, you're right, love does hurt,

734
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,240
and you can do some crazy things.

735
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:47,060
I'm sorry that you didn't do them in the fun places.

736
00:28:47,060 --> 00:28:48,680
And I leave the mic there.

737
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,520
It's an awkward clap through the crowd.

738
00:28:53,559 --> 00:28:56,720
Ellowin, ruckus, cheer.

739
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,720
You look for Cavlarn, who, yeah,

740
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,119
he's nowhere to be seen.

741
00:29:00,119 --> 00:29:01,680
You saw him sprint out the back.

742
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,319
Lady M, would you like to give a speech

743
00:29:03,319 --> 00:29:04,879
before we check in with Cavlarn?

744
00:29:04,879 --> 00:29:06,359
Why not?

745
00:29:06,359 --> 00:29:08,559
Well, nothing to say to you,

746
00:29:08,559 --> 00:29:10,599
Harrison, but Guinevere.

747
00:29:10,599 --> 00:29:11,680
You see him pull at his.

748
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:12,920
Welcome to the club.

749
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:13,759
Thank God.

750
00:29:13,759 --> 00:29:16,759
Welcome, welcome.

751
00:29:16,759 --> 00:29:18,720
You'll join us soon enough.

752
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,879
And I think we're quite a bit of fun.

753
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:23,760
Let's do shot.

754
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,360
One of us.

755
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:26,200
One of us.

756
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:27,520
One of us.

757
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,000
One of us.

758
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:30,480
Goobel gobble.

759
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,280
All of you, you get up and move towards the bar.

760
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,200
There's a confused, like a bit of excitement

761
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:38,280
from some people,

762
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:39,960
cause they're not entirely sure

763
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,400
what the vibe is anymore.

764
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,520
Harrison's like pulling at his shirt collar,

765
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,080
looking around for Cav.

766
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,400
Like you can't see you.

767
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,680
And Cavlarn, you had booked it down the hallway.

768
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,040
You hear kind of the end of Yiselle's speech

769
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,080
and Lady M get up and start speaking.

770
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,200
And you're like looking in every door again.

771
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,320
And you get down to the very end of this hallway

772
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,320
in this dimly lit room.

773
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,600
There's a couple of candles inside and you enter

774
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,080
and you see the same silhouette standing by a window.

775
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,680
Very clearly, Dame Corvella.

776
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,360
You've met her several times before.

777
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:20,840
What'd you have to do?

778
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:21,680
At least twice.

779
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:22,720
At least twice, yeah.

780
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,200
Well, yeah, I mean, she would have

781
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,039
at least partially raised you,

782
00:30:28,039 --> 00:30:30,160
depending on the timing.

783
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,360
At least been there during a raising.

784
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:33,200
Anyways.

785
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:37,039
She was your only technical step mom.

786
00:30:37,039 --> 00:30:37,880
True, true.

787
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,360
Yeah, we were like pre-step moms.

788
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:40,360
Yeah.

789
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,680
You enter and she doesn't say anything,

790
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:44,880
but you see her standing there.

791
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,360
What do you do?

792
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,320
How are we feeling today, Dame?

793
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:54,320
She turns and with a coldness in her voice says Gavlarne.

794
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,640
We're doing just fine today.

795
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:03,440
Good, good.

796
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,520
Normally has a bit of a sneer about her,

797
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,320
but she doesn't this time.

798
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,040
Couldn't help but notice the attire.

799
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:12,120
It's a bold choice.

800
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,040
I dressed for the occasion.

801
00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:16,960
It is a wedding.

802
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,559
Exactly.

803
00:31:18,559 --> 00:31:20,920
It's where love goes to die, Gavlarne.

804
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,519
Oh.

805
00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:24,000
Give her the mic.

806
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:24,839
Yes.

807
00:31:26,279 --> 00:31:27,119
Gavlarne.

808
00:31:27,119 --> 00:31:28,920
My lapel mic's been on the whole time.

809
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:30,119
Hey!

810
00:31:30,119 --> 00:31:31,799
Fucking lapel mics.

811
00:31:31,799 --> 00:31:33,519
Why did we put them on everybody?

812
00:31:33,519 --> 00:31:34,359
I don't know.

813
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,240
I have not come to give a speech.

814
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:41,559
Okay, that's probably good.

815
00:31:41,559 --> 00:31:42,920
Anything profound.

816
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,920
I stayed quiet because noise makes liars sloppy.

817
00:31:48,519 --> 00:31:52,560
She sits down, folds her hands.

818
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,800
She says, come in, have a seat, close the door.

819
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,160
Sure, yeah, I'll be right there.

820
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,279
The sound of the party, which has kind of picked up,

821
00:32:03,279 --> 00:32:04,759
people have stopped giving speeches

822
00:32:04,759 --> 00:32:05,640
and there's more just like,

823
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,039
shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot.

824
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,519
You close the door and which dims

825
00:32:11,519 --> 00:32:14,039
everything happening outside and says,

826
00:32:14,039 --> 00:32:19,039
your father believes he has simply been unlucky in love.

827
00:32:21,159 --> 00:32:24,799
Oh, well, we both know that's not the case though, right?

828
00:32:24,799 --> 00:32:26,039
No, of course not.

829
00:32:26,039 --> 00:32:28,960
It's not that he chooses poorly

830
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:32,240
or that hearts are fragile things.

831
00:32:33,519 --> 00:32:36,639
The small humorless smile comes across her

832
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:41,800
very stoic face and that is not what happened.

833
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,440
She noticed you sat a little further away from her

834
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,920
and she gets up and pulls her chair closer to you.

835
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:52,560
Not getting a threatening vibe,

836
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:56,720
but she's coming over to you for certainty.

837
00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:01,720
She says, years ago, before you were grown,

838
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:06,560
your father signed a document that he did not understand.

839
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:08,480
I mean, I do not think that is the first

840
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,599
and only time that has happened, but please continue.

841
00:33:10,599 --> 00:33:15,240
No, yes, it was a civic agreement.

842
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:16,079
You're right.

843
00:33:16,079 --> 00:33:17,319
He has signed many of them.

844
00:33:18,279 --> 00:33:21,519
It was a consolidation of authority,

845
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,319
something boring to him, you know, Harrison.

846
00:33:26,319 --> 00:33:27,159
Okay.

847
00:33:27,159 --> 00:33:29,759
Something men like him never read closely.

848
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:35,200
She looks to you knowingly

849
00:33:36,759 --> 00:33:39,480
the words did not stay where he put them.

850
00:33:40,639 --> 00:33:45,639
They were taken, preserved, filed.

851
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,399
I do a lot of filing in my job.

852
00:33:50,399 --> 00:33:53,200
Well, in my old, well, I didn't do it,

853
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,279
but like I was around while it was done.

854
00:33:55,279 --> 00:33:57,839
So I'm with you so far.

855
00:33:57,839 --> 00:34:01,559
She lifts the brim of her hat, even removes it.

856
00:34:01,559 --> 00:34:03,079
So you can see her eyes.

857
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,760
They were filed in the Weeping Archive.

858
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,480
Oh shit, I've actually heard of that.

859
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:15,280
Every marriage after that was not chaos.

860
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:16,800
It was containment.

861
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,800
Each wife placed near him by coincidence,

862
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,640
by council, by recommendation.

863
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,519
Families with scribes, record keepers,

864
00:34:27,519 --> 00:34:32,280
people who knew how to erase a just delay.

865
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,639
He thought he was protecting himself.

866
00:34:36,639 --> 00:34:39,559
The Archive thought it was indexing him.

867
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,799
That's why he forgets things that matter.

868
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,920
That's why records vanish.

869
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,639
And that's why Vintersmouth

870
00:34:51,639 --> 00:34:54,799
keeps surviving scandals it should not.

871
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:01,279
Your father is not powerful, Kavlaran.

872
00:35:01,279 --> 00:35:02,440
He is footnoted.

873
00:35:03,759 --> 00:35:05,039
She stands up.

874
00:35:07,079 --> 00:35:10,360
I waited to see what kind of man you were before telling you.

875
00:35:11,639 --> 00:35:15,519
Whether you could carry truth without turning it into a weapon.

876
00:35:17,159 --> 00:35:19,480
Now you know where to look.

877
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,840
The Archive already knows who you are.

878
00:35:25,119 --> 00:35:27,239
She turns to leave.

879
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,599
She opens the door and the sound of the party picks up again

880
00:35:31,679 --> 00:35:33,360
as the door opens.

881
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,719
As she exits, she adds without turning back.

882
00:35:37,799 --> 00:35:41,759
If you ever read your father's name in ink that won't dry,

883
00:35:42,599 --> 00:35:45,559
don't touch the page.

884
00:35:48,759 --> 00:35:49,679
Okay, noted.

885
00:35:50,559 --> 00:35:53,599
She turns the corner.

886
00:35:53,599 --> 00:35:58,599
As you get up to follow her, she's gone down the hall.

887
00:35:58,759 --> 00:36:01,440
It's weird that every conversation I have with her is like this.

888
00:36:05,639 --> 00:36:09,559
