Ep 40: Make It Work, Satyrs (Theatrical Pageant-erlude)

WEBVTT
00:00:04.959 --> 00:00:06.959
Welcome back to Trying a Quest.
00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:12.720
I saw something come over Matt just then.
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:16.079
You would be such a great shock shock.
00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:22.640
Well, here in the morning, I've got my favorite guest, Spencer Wilton, who's gonna give us a recap.
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:23.440
That's awesome.
00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:25.199
Not yet, buddy, but that's awesome.
00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:26.719
That's so cool.
00:00:26.879 --> 00:00:29.120
Wow, I could listen to you every morning on my commute.
00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:31.359
I'll make one podcast for you a day.
00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:32.399
Can you do that?
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:33.359
Can you do that for me?
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.240
Can you just record a voice note and then send it to Spencer?
00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:38.719
No, I'd I'd prefer if he put it on a Spotify.
00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:40.399
The Morn report so they can get some.
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:41.840
The Morn report.
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:42.640
Mourn it.
00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:45.759
That sounds so you're instead.
00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:49.600
Then we're back to Minority Report and we're back to pre-cogs.
00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:49.920
Yes.
00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:51.840
And pregnant, yeah.
00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:55.920
We've been huge on things that can get you pregnant recently.
00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:59.280
That's kind of been our remote just or whatever.
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:01.600
We're kind of at that time of the month that we're feeling that.
00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:03.520
We're gonna go around and introduce ourselves.
00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:04.959
My name is Spencer Wilden.
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:06.480
I am DMing.
00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:14.879
Um, and I'm actually going to hand it over to my friend, the host of the uh Resplendence Royale, one Basil St.
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:15.599
Basilton.
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:17.840
Oh I love it when we have guests on the intro.
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:18.400
Hello.
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:19.840
Hello, yes.
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:23.840
I'm going to introduce you all and ask you a pageant question.
00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:24.879
Oh, okay, okay.
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:25.599
Basil.
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:31.200
Uh, first of all, to Chloe O'Donnell, what is your greatest strength and biggest weakness?
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:34.319
You you want to know Chloe's biggest strength?
00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:37.519
Maybe Patch's Okay.
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:42.079
Because I don't have any weaknesses except for my pride.
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:50.400
Hi everyone, my name is Chloe O'Donnell and I play Patch Needies, aka Patch.
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:56.560
And Patch's biggest weakness is is his inflexibility.
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:11.439
Um, you know, he doesn't have a very, you know, not like closed-minded in like a bigoted sense, but close-I think closed-minded in terms of the ways he sees the world and the way that people are.
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:20.159
Um, I think he's very much like, you know, every bad experience he had in high school with any type of person ruined that type of person for him.
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:26.000
And now, you know, if he meets a pageant, any pageant person, he's gonna assume it's gonna be mean, be mean to him.
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:26.639
And die.
00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:27.520
And die.
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:30.879
His biggest strength is his sense of curiosity.
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:34.159
Uh Patch wants to know how the world works.
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:40.159
And uh he likes to ask questions, and hopefully through that he will become a little bit more flexible.
00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:41.280
Yeah, okay.
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:43.599
Very great answer.
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:46.879
Next we're going to toss it over to our friend Adonis Rex.
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.919
Hi, I'm Matt Morton, and I play Adonis Rex.
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:51.199
Thank you, Basil.
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:51.360
St.
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:54.240
Basil to I love your tuxedo.
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:59.919
Um, my biggest strength is probably uh my big, big muscles.
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:06.159
Um I can probably, you know, crunch uh probably uh squat you, Basil.
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:07.919
I mean we'll see you later.
00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:17.120
And and uh and my biggest weakness is probably my ability to uh uh is n is my my flexibility at the moment.
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:24.319
Um I'm not very dexterous um and I can't yet touch my toes, but I'm working on it every day.
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:25.360
Wonderful.
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:26.159
Wonderful.
00:03:26.240 --> 00:03:28.800
That's very good of you to admit your weaknesses like that.
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:29.599
Thank you.
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:33.360
We're gonna go over now to our friend Janice Apollon.
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:36.639
Oh hey everyone, I'm Shane Jordan and I play Janice Apollon.
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:41.120
Uh so uh Janice's biggest strength is his work ethic.
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:49.120
He wakes up early and he works out and he has a routine and he cooks for himself and he eats well, um and he's very disciplined.
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:51.439
Um so I think that's one of his main strengths.
00:03:51.840 --> 00:04:14.960
Um and I think his weakness, uh similar to Patch, is he I think he he goes out into the world with this sense that everybody has his same moral compass or his same like drive to do good, um, and is is bamboozled andor gullible or naive in the sense of like people not always just trying to do their best.
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:20.879
Like that concept that everyone's not trying to do good in the world is is foreign to him and gives him a sense of naivete.
00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:23.839
Wonderful to know oneself to such a degree.
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:25.279
This is a serious question you asked.
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:30.720
Uh we're gonna pass it on now to our friend Lucinae Not.
00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:34.480
Um, what is your greatest strength and your biggest weakness?
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:39.120
Hi everyone, my name is Sarah Katronich, and I play Lucinae Knot.
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:45.360
And Lucy's um greatest strength is her creativity.
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:52.000
She likes to think outside of the box or inside the box if it's not expected, like a sarcophagus.
00:04:52.879 --> 00:04:54.879
Um she got in that box.
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:55.680
She did.
00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:07.519
And um, I think her greatest weakness is her lack of considering other people when she's doing things.
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:10.639
I think she she's not unempathetic.
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:18.560
Like I th she feels strongly for people, but when she's acting, she's not taking other people into exper into consideration, I don't think, actually.
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:24.720
And so she's a little bit I guess like then that that creativity becomes kind of impulsivity in in maybe a negative way.
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:28.560
She doesn't really think it through, she doesn't think about kind of the the second part of it.
00:05:29.279 --> 00:05:40.480
She's definitely like, oh, she she tried to, you know, plant some flowers in someone's lawn to like make someone feel better, but then it like messed up the local ecology of Siren's purchase.
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:40.639
Yeah.
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:42.319
So it's like that's why it's a swamp.
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:43.839
That's and that's why it's a swamp.
00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:44.959
Yeah.
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:48.000
Um well, thank you all so much.
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:49.680
Um, I, of course, in the dress.
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:50.240
Yeah.
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:51.839
Um, what about you?
00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:52.319
What?
00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:52.720
Me?
00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:55.839
You're here asking all these questions of us, and we haven't heard anything about you.
00:05:56.079 --> 00:05:57.120
What do you want to know about me?
00:05:57.360 --> 00:05:59.600
I want to know what your greatest strength and your biggest weakness is.
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:00.720
And who you are.
00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:02.079
Did you say that already?
00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:04.480
Yes, oh, yeah, that's right.
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:05.839
The host of the event.
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:11.519
But I will say, my greatest strength is that I have no known allergens that have affected some.
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:14.800
That's not what I'm saying.
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:16.240
Um, I think my biggest weakness.
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:18.160
My strength is my ability to kill people.
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:22.319
Um baddies with baddies with with with shit that don't quit.
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:23.600
Okay, that's enough of that.
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:25.360
Did you say baddies or bodies?
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:27.120
Baddies with baddies.
00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:29.279
Baddies with boom baladdies.
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:31.360
Basil, we don't talk about like that about women like that, right?
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:37.360
No, but no, and and in a way in which I also I think they're they're baddies who think.
00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:44.000
Bat Basil, maybe your weakness could be something about water so that we could then dive into the recap.
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:47.279
My weakness is baddies spotting some water.
00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:49.360
I heard that your weakness is you can't swim.
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:49.680
Yeah.
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:50.560
Oh, I heard that too.
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:51.759
Who told you who told you that?
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:53.600
Probably one of those women you were bad mouthing.
00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:55.920
And you should get over your badies in a good way.
00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:56.639
You should get over your mouth.
00:06:57.279 --> 00:06:59.600
It's a compliment when you're one of your womanized.
00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:05.600
You know what you can't get pregnant from good mouthing.
00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:06.160
What?
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:09.360
You know what you can get pregnant from come in water.
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:12.480
Speaking of water.
00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:14.160
I don't know if that's the water.
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:15.920
Let's dive into the recap.
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:21.439
I think we're gonna set this one out.
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:23.360
I I don't know if I want to get in there.
00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:27.600
Guys, come in the water! Guys, look, my stream of consciousness.
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:31.279
We're gonna dive into the ring.
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:36.639
Ailment analogies, sabotage and stagecraft.
00:07:37.120 --> 00:07:39.040
Turn turn and kick turn.
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:40.800
Yes! Spencer.
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:41.839
Oh my god.
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:43.519
Four bodies.
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:49.199
To this point, four contestants have fallen at the Resplendence Royale in Narcisum.
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:54.079
First, Ariana Deluge, the favorite, dead to a severe allergic reaction.
00:07:54.319 --> 00:08:02.240
Next, triplets Jenny, Jenny, and Jane, sea elves crushed under the sabotaged lighting rig, and it was huge, it was a huge lighting rig, which Sabbath said.
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:06.160
Still, the show must go on.
00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:11.920
As with any pageant, the list of people with possible violent intent lurking under their skin is long.
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:17.279
Contestants like Ryan De Janeiro, whose stock rises with each death before him.
00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:19.519
Or those far below him in the ranking.
00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:24.319
Hilden Berg, the actress, who wishes to win to raise funds for her One Woman show.
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:29.759
Evelyn Traunch, who has a friendship connection to the deceased Ariana, but little chance to win herself.
00:08:30.079 --> 00:08:34.000
Peppy the gnome, who talks a little silly and often perhaps uh goofily.
00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:36.000
Maybe that's Spencer's self-insert.
00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:39.759
And then, of course, the chaperones and organizers of the event themselves.
00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:45.120
Phil Traunch, Evelyn's uncle, an accountant with a strange coin of Mogus in his bag.
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:52.720
Hugo, the leading producer, whose responsibility it is that the event goes off without a hitch, but who has one foot out the door as we speak.
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:54.559
Let's just arrest him for being a dick.
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:55.360
Basil St.
00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:58.000
Basilton, the event's singing and dancing host.
00:08:58.159 --> 00:08:58.559
I met him.
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:04.879
Then, of course, Veranda Pastor, the ruthless fashion impresario, an oracle of a Morigana, goddess of beauty.
00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:10.320
As contestants yourselves, you never know where, or who, the saboteur will strike next.
00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:19.200
With nobody to trust but yourselves and your good friend Yemma the Stage Witch, serving, of course, as tech director on this pageant, you find yourself with a challenge before you.
00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:27.360
Not only to win the pageant and secure the panacea to cure Rex's arboreal condition, but to catch the killer before they strike again.
00:09:27.679 --> 00:09:31.200
Somewhere, it's not raining in Narcisa, but somewhere else in the world, thunder strikes.
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.679
Absolutely callous, yeah.
00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:38.799
We see uh a young woman sitting in front of a mirror.
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:51.759
You see, she she wipes some tears from her eyes, um, and as she she struggles to apply mascara to her under eye, a voice goes See how they primed pre.
00:09:53.919 --> 00:09:59.519
You see uh a young gnomish man with a thick red beard in a gym.
00:09:59.919 --> 00:10:04.559
He's he's running on the uh the the fantasy treadmill.
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:08.240
How they exalt themselves for beauty.
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:24.480
We see uh in a bathroom, like standing, kind of pacing back and forth, uh a woman in brown, like priest-like robes with with thick red hair, as she goes over a script again and again and again.
00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:32.639
How they exalt themselves for their imperious beauty that cares not for the suffering you feel.
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:38.320
We see Rex uh picking things up, putting them down.
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:42.080
The suffering at the core of your being.
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:53.919
We see um Janice practicing his flips, we see Lucy um fucking talking, we see Patch working on his type five.
00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:57.919
Soon you will be free.
00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:05.679
We then uh cut at the back to two people.
00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:08.960
To Patch and to Lucy.
00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:15.279
Patch and Lucy, you are on your way to visit uh Veranda Pastor.
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:24.480
Um, you guys have uh been told that you have to return to a rehearsal before the show starts, like finish the choreography, finish the coordination.
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:30.559
Um you don't have a ton of time, but you have decided that you want to go speak to Veranda Pastor.
00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:30.960
Yes.
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:36.480
Okay, we have as long until they clean the bodies off the stage and reset before we have to be back.
00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:37.039
Okay.
00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:40.720
I I'm just kind of curious like I don't even know what I want to ask her, to be honest.
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:41.600
I just kinda want to meet her.
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:43.200
No, I I kind of feel that way too.
00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:47.440
Like, she seems to have a very uh intense vibe, you know, and also a great name.
00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:50.639
Yeah, and also she's an oracle, so maybe she can know something.
00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:53.840
Yeah, we've never met anyone that's like a straight up oracle before.
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:55.440
Oh, we met um um Midas.
00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:57.679
Midas Aphrodite, Janice's friend.
00:11:57.759 --> 00:11:59.279
She was the oracle of Carinus.
00:11:59.679 --> 00:11:59.919
What?
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:00.320
Yeah.
00:12:00.559 --> 00:12:01.279
She never said.
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:01.840
Yeah, she did.
00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:02.799
That's why she liked lightning.
00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:03.200
Oh, yeah.
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:04.559
It's like the first thing she said to me.
00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:06.399
Yeah, she was bragging about it kind of.
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:09.039
I just remembered Janice's voice in my head saying that.
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:11.360
That that was the first thing you see to him.
00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:12.000
Regardless.
00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:15.759
A figure ahead comes out of um of a door.
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:21.600
Uh, a head! Carrying um carrying some folders and and walks past you.
00:12:21.679 --> 00:12:24.399
This this door is Viranda's office.
00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:26.080
I'm just gonna I'm just gonna knock.
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:26.639
Okay.
00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:27.440
Go for it.
00:12:27.919 --> 00:12:28.879
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:29.120
What?
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:31.519
I just have I have one little bit of suspicion.
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:31.919
Oh.
00:12:32.159 --> 00:12:37.360
Um, Amorigana is is the goddess of a lot of things, but uh one of the things is it is entertainment, right?
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:37.600
Yeah.
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.279
But she's she doesn't seem like she's having fun here, right?
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:41.919
Is that weird?
00:12:42.159 --> 00:12:43.840
You mean Viranda doesn't seem like she's having fun?
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:44.240
Yeah.
00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:46.240
Yeah, you're getting like a jealousy vibe?
00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:46.960
I don't know.
00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:49.200
It just seems strange.
00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:49.919
I don't know.
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:52.240
I mean, maybe I'm just putting presumptions onto people.
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:53.519
I just wanted to flag that.
00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:54.399
No, I like that.
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:56.879
Dogs are complicated as we know.
00:12:57.120 --> 00:13:02.879
And I just okay, I have this suspicion that a Morgana doesn't talk the way that we think she talks.
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:03.360
Yeah.
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:06.000
I think she I think she talks like this.
00:13:06.320 --> 00:13:08.320
You think she talks like you in your head?
00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:09.440
I no no no.
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:10.720
I talk like this.
00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:11.679
Oh yeah.
00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:15.039
I'm sorry, is somebody out there I think she talks like Mogus.
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:16.480
Uh knock knock knock knock.
00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:18.080
Yes, who is it?

Thank you.
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:39.759
What was that about?
00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:41.039
Uh you don't need to know my business.
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:42.320

00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:52.799
Thank you so much.
00:13:53.039 --> 00:13:54.240
You can leave a note with my secretary.
00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:59.519
Saying hi and um uh we are afraid of your life.
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:00.320
Yes.
00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:02.159
You're afraid for my life.
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:02.720
Yes.
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:07.360
Uh yeah, we we're we've been um we've we have been designated by Hugo to look into these murders.
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:09.600
We just saw so many people die.
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:11.360
The stage has been compromised.
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:17.039
She stands up at her desk and kind of this is the first time you've seen her smile.
00:14:17.200 --> 00:14:25.440
Uh, she's got this like dark green skin, like like like spring leaves that have like fully come into their virility?
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:26.480
Their virility.
00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:28.159
Um, no.
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:29.919
Verdent verdanty.
00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:30.399
Yes.
00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:39.279
Um she's got her her her hair like chaffs of wheat, literally uh like woven um into like a beautiful bun on top of her head.
00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:42.799
She goes, I have lived for so many years.
00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:47.919
If I need someone to worry for me, I'll pay someone to worry for me.
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:49.919
Oh, that's so sad.
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:57.200
Uh I'm uh I I'm actually uh I'm gonna be real with you, ma'am.
00:14:57.360 --> 00:14:59.840
Um I'm I'm also an oracle.
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.120
Um I'm an oracle of of Phoenix, I think.
00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:03.600
What?
00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:04.159
What was that?
00:15:04.559 --> 00:15:04.879
Phoenix.
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:06.559
Car, you speak under your breath.
00:15:06.799 --> 00:15:08.559
It's very unbecoming of a young boy.
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:30.080
I am an oracle of Phoenix! And I I that's how I feel too, and I wanted to talk to you because um I know that um a Morgana and Phoenix have similar origins and that uh they are um we're we're ascended from mortals, and I just kind of wanted to see uh to be honest, I j I just wanted to I because I want to talk to you um about like how you feel about a Morgana.
00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:31.200
Is she nice to you?
00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:33.759
Yes, she's perfectly nice, she's perfectly pleasant.
00:15:34.159 --> 00:15:35.679
When did you guys meet for the first time?
00:15:35.919 --> 00:15:37.039
She looks at her watch.
00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:45.120
Um Because you're so smart and beautiful and intelligent, and we could learn so much from you.
00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:47.120
Make a persuasion check.
00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:48.879
Can she have help from Patch?
00:15:49.120 --> 00:15:55.200
I'll I'll say help will negate the disadvantage of her being like a busy, busy business woman who only cares about business.
00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:56.960
I got 25.
00:15:57.200 --> 00:15:57.519
Okay.
00:15:57.919 --> 00:15:59.440
She uh goes.
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:04.240
Alright, but I only tell you this in the interest of getting you out of here quicker.
00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:06.000
Can we can we agree on that, Kapiche?
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:06.399
Capiche?
00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:07.440
Yes, ma'am, Kapoche.
00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:10.000
I've known a Morigana my whole life.
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:14.080
Um, I've known her since before she was who you know is a Morigana.
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:15.440
Oh, you knew her as a mortal?
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:15.759
Really?
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:16.320
Yes, yes.
00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:17.120
Mortalogana.
00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:20.639
So wait, are you jealous that she was the one that became a god and you're not?
00:16:20.879 --> 00:16:22.240
God, no, I would not want that.
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:26.399
You wouldn't want it the responsibility I have, putting on a pageant is enough.
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:28.240
Imagine being a goddess.
00:16:28.399 --> 00:16:28.960
No, thank you.
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:32.399
Okay, so what, you were sisters in an orphanage alone together?
00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:34.480
No, orphanage, no.
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:37.120
Um, um, did were you friends?
00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:38.080
Yes.
00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:41.279
Uh well, we were priestesses together of the goddess Carametra.
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:42.080
At the orphanage?
00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:43.360
The goddess Caramentra.
00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:45.600
She's the goddess of the harvest.
00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:46.080
Oh.
00:16:46.720 --> 00:16:50.159
Uh, she this was hundreds and hundreds of years ago.
00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:53.600
She was always has been beautiful.
00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:58.240
She was visited by the god Heliad, who fell in love with her.
00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:04.240
She told him that she would not give him her hand in marriage unless he elevated her to godhood.
00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:12.720
Um, which he did uh by proposing at the Stardrop Tree, which is of course how we get the Stardrop Elixir every year on the anniversary.
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:16.240
So, now that you have talked to me about this.
00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:19.519
So, how did you become the Oracle?
00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:30.720
Well, for a time she had another Oracle and then another Oracle, and then eventually it fell down to me, and of course, when the Hilltops took over here, the harvest went away, and so I needed another job, frankly.
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:33.839
And she has been very good to me.
00:17:34.319 --> 00:17:34.640
Okay.
00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:38.160
Um, are you at all concerned that people are dying in this tournament?
00:17:38.480 --> 00:17:39.279
Believe me.
00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:46.799
I do not want that to happen as much as anyone else, but I believe that it shall not happen once the pageant begins in earnest.
00:17:46.880 --> 00:17:47.119
I think.
00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:51.039
Because you're doing it and what you'll stop killing people once the pageant starts?
00:17:51.440 --> 00:17:52.160
Ha ha ha!
00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:53.759
Toosy, that's so funny.
00:17:55.839 --> 00:17:56.799
I'm sorry.
00:17:57.119 --> 00:17:58.160
What was your name?
00:17:58.480 --> 00:17:59.200
Toosy.
00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:00.319
Toosy.
00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:02.240
Toosy.
00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:04.880
Tim and Tussie.
00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:05.920
Oh, got it.
00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:06.319
Okay.
00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:08.400
Because Tim is batched with a T.
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:11.039
Um, I'm I'm I'm Toosy not.
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:12.160
She writes it down.
00:18:12.400 --> 00:18:12.799
Interesting.
00:18:13.200 --> 00:18:14.880
She you see, she writes something down.
00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:15.839
What what?
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:18.240
Do you want my you want my heritage, my parentage?
00:18:18.559 --> 00:18:20.559
I don't particularly care about you.
00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:21.279
Okay.
00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:23.759
Well, now that it's me, now that it's my mama.
00:18:24.160 --> 00:18:29.359
Can I do um sorry, just can I do just a quick perception check around the room?
00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:30.160
Oh yeah.
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:31.359
Can I look in her trash?
00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:32.000
Let her.
00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:35.039
Let her totally make a make a perception check.
00:18:35.359 --> 00:18:36.480
Patch got a 15.
00:18:36.640 --> 00:18:37.039
15?
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:37.279
Okay.
00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:37.680
Yeah.
00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:42.480
Um, you do see a natural 20 or natural one?
00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:43.759
One minus one.
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:44.640
One minus one.
00:18:44.960 --> 00:18:45.359
A zero.
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:45.680
Yeah.
00:18:45.839 --> 00:18:46.079
Okay.
00:18:46.319 --> 00:18:47.599
No, she's gonna throw us out.
00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:48.799
She's already throwing herself.
00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:51.920
You see a golden opportunity.
00:18:52.160 --> 00:19:05.359
Lucy looks at her trash can, and at this time, Veranda, a rage enters behind her eyes, and she steps forward to Lucy, staring at Lucy, and goes, please get out of my office now.
00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:07.279
I don't ask again, I'm not asking now.
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:08.160
I'm telling.
00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:09.839
Get out of my office.
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:10.480
Okay.
00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:19.359
Uh I know that my trash may be the most high-class items that you would ever get your hands on, but trust me, you are not worthy of it.
00:19:19.599 --> 00:19:22.400
Well, well, Miss Miranda, that's um, that's not necessary.
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.960
I I I'm sorry that we interrupted you, but you don't need to talk to to anyone like that.
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:30.880
You are an you are an inch away from removal from the competition.
00:19:31.039 --> 00:19:34.400
Now I've already lost four competitors.
00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:36.480
I don't want to kick two out.
00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:38.160
The numbers are already bad.
00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:40.799
Our sponsors are already going to be unhappy.
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:49.920
Okay, just so you know, we're all either related to or oracles of gods, so we could make it a pretty exciting, really fun time for you, but that's fine.
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:52.160
If they're gods like Phoenix, I'm not interested.
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:52.799
Thank you so much.
00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:54.240
I mean, only one is Phoenix.
00:19:54.559 --> 00:19:54.720
Dang it.
00:19:55.039 --> 00:20:02.720
Patch, as she is looking at Lucy, you see that there is a book on her desk that she is like currently actively writing in.
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:04.400
It has like a bunch of papers.
00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:05.440
Like it's a binder.
00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:06.880
It has a bunch of papers stuck in it.
00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:08.240
She's not currently looking.
00:20:09.039 --> 00:20:13.119
Uh Patch will investigate or I just look at it with my perception.
00:20:13.440 --> 00:20:15.200
Or sleight of hand, did some of the pages out?
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:16.240
I don't want to take anything.
00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:16.960
That's fair.
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:24.160
So you with your perception check, I'll see that you I'll say that you see two you can really get a good look at two pages.
00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:24.640
Yeah.
00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:36.799
Um one of them is a note that seems to be a uh note of good behavior for a uh convict um who is competing in the competition.
00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:48.799
Uh someone who used to occupy the labyrinth of uh Lycus in Ariaks, but now uh is has a criminal record, but has now been given leave to compete in this competition.
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:49.359
Okay.
00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:51.519
Um by the name of Hilden Berg.
00:20:52.480 --> 00:21:04.240
But then you also see uh a note you can't read the entire thing, but you make out the words Hugo, real housewives, and betrayal.
00:21:05.599 --> 00:21:08.640
Um Miss Pastor, we'll we'll leave.
00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:14.079
Um, and listen, I'm I'm not too proud to say that I don't like my god.
00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:15.279
I don't like my god.
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:20.000
So, um listen, if if you uh have advice about that, that obviously you don't.
00:21:20.160 --> 00:21:23.279
But we maybe we can make a connection, but I'm glad that you and your god are so happy.
00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:25.759
How many people want to make a connection with me in a given day?
00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:26.160
Thank you.
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:27.599
Ooh, and then I message her.
00:21:27.759 --> 00:21:32.000
You wanna go head to head, beauty contest, you and I.
00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:32.799
Dawn.
00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:37.119
You're gonna stand next to me.
00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:41.759
You see, she she she's actively wearing her like horned sunglasses.
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:45.039
She takes them off and mogs you so verociously.
00:21:46.079 --> 00:21:46.400
Patches.
00:21:46.799 --> 00:21:47.359
Roll for mog.
00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:49.759
Roll roll a charisma check.
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:50.160
Oh.
00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:51.920
Maybe.
00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:54.799
I think it's fair to say that she's gonna roll this with advantage.
00:21:55.119 --> 00:21:55.680
Doesn't matter.
00:21:55.920 --> 00:21:57.119
Natural 20.
00:21:57.839 --> 00:21:59.759
You see, she looks at you and goes, please.
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:00.880
Please leave my office.
00:22:01.200 --> 00:22:03.839
Lucy, you look snatched today.
00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:04.960
Oh, Patch.
00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:07.519
My sister's gay.
00:22:09.839 --> 00:22:12.000
How do you think I know these words?
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:14.000
You guys walk out.
00:22:14.160 --> 00:22:17.119
We cut down to the lobby with Janice and Rex.
00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:22.640
Uh, Janice and Rex, you have been looking around for uh uh Phil andor Evelyn Tranch.
00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:26.640
You someone said that they saw uh a Phil in the pool.
00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:28.319
Someone fill in the pool?
00:22:28.559 --> 00:22:29.920
Someone filled in the pool.
00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:35.359
They weren't in their room uh when Patch and I looked, and they weren't in the theater with everyone else at the time.
00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:37.119
So uh let's go check out the pool.
00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:38.720
Okay, I could do some billiards.
00:22:38.960 --> 00:22:40.079
No, not that kind of pool.
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:41.039
What kind of pool?
00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:43.039
The kind that you that you jump in.
00:22:43.279 --> 00:22:44.559
Oh, the water kind.
00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:45.279
The water kind.
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:46.640
Can we play pool later?
00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:48.160
Billiards?
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:49.200
I mean swim.
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:50.480
Oh, yeah, we can swim.
00:22:50.720 --> 00:22:50.960
Okay.
00:22:51.200 --> 00:22:51.519
Okay.
00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:52.480
It's a great workout.
00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:53.200
It'll be great training.
00:22:53.359 --> 00:22:54.559
And then we could do billiards.
00:22:54.880 --> 00:22:55.279
I guess.
00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:58.160
Come on, this is so boring.
00:22:58.480 --> 00:23:03.359
Wait, it there's been a murder of four You said this last time someone got murdered.
00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:06.559
Kind of wanted a me day, you know?
00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:07.680
I guess that's fair.
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:10.640
It did turn our vacation into work, huh?
00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:10.960
Yeah.
00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:14.880
Though it already was work because we were trying to save your That's right.
00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:17.119
Yeah, we were trying to stop you from xyloforming.
00:23:17.279 --> 00:23:19.279
Yeah, I don't want to turn into a tree anymore.
00:23:20.960 --> 00:23:25.039
When Janice says xyloforming, like five people around him stop and go, oh.
00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:28.000
Janice mocks the camera.
00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:30.319
Thanks for teaching me that word.
00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:31.759
You're welcome, Rex.
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:33.440
Okay, let's go play pool.
00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:35.119
You guys walk into the pool.
00:23:35.279 --> 00:23:38.319
You see that there are um whoa, splash.
00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:41.759
Um there's a big pool, there's also a hot tub.
00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:45.119
You see that Phil is over sitting in the hot tub by himself.
00:23:45.279 --> 00:24:03.920
Uh uh, and as you approach the hot you see that the hot tub has uh at the very bottom uh a series of iron balls and holes and long sticks uh that he's using to uh try to get the balls, some of which are striped, some of which are solid, into the holes.
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:06.559
Uh he's playing uh tub pool.
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:08.480
He's playing pool.
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:11.119
I don't know, I heard a lot of balls and rods that you were talking about.
00:24:11.279 --> 00:24:11.920
I heard chains.
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:13.519
He's also jerking off.
00:24:13.680 --> 00:24:14.240
Fucking.
00:24:14.319 --> 00:24:15.119
He's not doing that.
00:24:15.599 --> 00:24:16.880
Cut that, cut that.
00:24:17.359 --> 00:24:18.079
Fuck yeah.
00:24:18.240 --> 00:24:19.519

Let's do both.
00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:25.759
Let's do both.
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:26.799
Let's do all three.
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:28.160
What's the third thing?
00:24:29.039 --> 00:24:30.079
Interrogating this guy.
00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:31.920
That's right, that's right.
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:33.519
Janice and Rex.
00:24:33.680 --> 00:24:34.240

What's up, Phil?
00:24:37.680 --> 00:24:39.039
Come on in, the water's nice.
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:40.799
Playing a little bit of pool pool.

Love it.
00:24:41.599 --> 00:24:41.839
Okay.

Uh Janice disrobes.
00:24:44.559 --> 00:24:46.559

00:25:06.880 --> 00:25:07.680
Evelyn's fine.
00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:09.119
We actually couldn't find it.
00:25:09.200 --> 00:25:10.160
We couldn't find Evelyn.
00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:12.559
We should we'll we're gonna go find her, of course.
00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:13.519
We'll let you know how she is.
00:25:13.759 --> 00:25:14.880
We assume she'd be with you.
00:25:15.359 --> 00:25:15.920
Oh god.
00:25:16.079 --> 00:25:21.119
Okay, um maybe maybe I shouldn't EC starts to like get out of the pool.
00:25:21.599 --> 00:25:22.960
Maybe I should go try to find her.
00:25:23.279 --> 00:25:24.400
You're not done with our game.
00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:25.599
Or your drink.
00:25:25.839 --> 00:25:27.119
Can I ask you a question?
00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:27.680
Yeah.
00:25:28.000 --> 00:25:28.240
Yeah.
00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:31.359
Anything here that interests you?
00:25:31.759 --> 00:25:33.119
Rex points to a scratch.
00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:39.039
You know, the Mogus horns underwear that I wear.
00:25:39.599 --> 00:25:39.920
Oh.
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:42.880
Uh, he really, you got me.
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:44.720
You really scared me for a minute.
00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:49.599
No, I um actually uh I used to be a Mogus guy.
00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:51.359
Uh he starts putting on a towel.
00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:58.000
I used to be a Mogus guy, but uh uh I was I don't like to talk about it very much, but um I was part of the Great Surrender.
00:25:58.640 --> 00:25:59.440
Oh, oh.
00:25:59.920 --> 00:26:05.920
I was part of the contingent that uh surrendered that brought about the end of the war.
00:26:06.079 --> 00:26:13.519
Uh I don't want to rub it in, but at that point I my loyalty's sort of shifted away from slaughter towards uh wisdom.
00:26:13.839 --> 00:26:15.759
Oh, what god do you worship now?
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:16.720
Uh Keranos.
00:26:16.960 --> 00:26:17.440
Keranos.
00:26:17.920 --> 00:26:18.960
That's interesting.
00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:23.759
Now uh do you have any anything else or should I can I get out of here?
00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:34.640
Well, we wanted to ask you about you know, the suspicious circumstances in which well, some would call suspicious circumstances in which Evelyn found her way here.
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:38.079
Um the two the two runner-ups.
00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:41.839
No, I I get I get what you're saying, and I What had happened?
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:44.240
I see how unfortunate it sounds, yeah.
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:52.640
Those kids, they uh got it in their heads to to drink a couple nights before it was time to go to the to the to the pageant.
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:54.400
Got behind the wheel of their carriage.
00:26:54.559 --> 00:26:56.160
When did you know they hit a tree?
00:26:56.559 --> 00:27:03.119
They're okay, but uh moments like that that make you glad that uh your niece has got a good head on her shoulders.
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:08.000
Are you kind of um do you not uh you know partake?
00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:12.559
You know, I noticed I didn't smell any rum on your in your drink.
00:27:13.119 --> 00:27:15.279
Uh the stuff's not for me.
00:27:15.920 --> 00:27:17.680
I love this stuff.
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:26.000
Well, um I think it's probably inappropriate for me to buy you a drink, but uh Well, I mean, I don't need you to buy me a drink.
00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:27.440
I'm kind of loaded.
00:27:27.759 --> 00:27:28.079
Great.
00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:31.279
And after a few drinks, I'll be really loaded, if you know what I mean.
00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:31.759
That's great.
00:27:31.839 --> 00:27:34.960
That's I also like to drive a carriage drunk from time to time.
00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:37.440
Okay, I take my tip back.
00:27:38.079 --> 00:27:39.359
I'm trying to rile them up.
00:27:39.440 --> 00:27:39.920
Oh, okay.
00:27:40.160 --> 00:27:41.680
Uh I wouldn't recommend that.
00:27:41.839 --> 00:27:43.279
Both of you make a perception check.
00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:44.799
Perception.
00:27:45.200 --> 00:27:46.079
Perception.
00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:47.440
Uh eighteen.
00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:48.400
Eighteen?
00:27:48.720 --> 00:27:53.599
Janice, you see as he's putting on his towel, a gnarly scar up his side.
00:27:53.839 --> 00:27:56.079
Oh my, can I uh can I take a look at that?
00:27:56.160 --> 00:27:57.839
I'm uh I'm a doctor in training.
00:27:58.079 --> 00:28:00.400
Trust me, I've had it looked at plenty of times before.
00:28:00.640 --> 00:28:01.759
Old war wound.
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:03.440
Axe up.
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:04.799
War uh war wound?
00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:06.079
How'd you how did you get it?
00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:06.960
Uh spear.
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:09.359
S uh spear made a wound this long?
00:28:09.599 --> 00:28:11.039
Yeah, it was dragged up.
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:11.519
Oh.
00:28:11.839 --> 00:28:14.960
I got impaled and then dragged behind a horse.
00:28:15.200 --> 00:28:15.920
Oh my god.
00:28:16.160 --> 00:28:18.480
Was this in the later parts of the war?
00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:19.119
Yeah.
00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:22.000
Was this before It was before the war ended.
00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:22.880
Sure.
00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:25.680
Uh was it otherwise they wouldn't have done it probably.
00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:28.799
Was it part of the reason that you decided to surrender?
00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:31.440
Were you just could you not fight anymore because of your injury?
00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:36.079
Yeah, I mean that, and I just, you know, at a certain time it gets to be too much, right?
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:39.200
Violence, I uh I abhor violence.
00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:46.559
Rex would like to grapple him and take off his towel to hold him down so that James can get uh like a really good look at this.
00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:47.200
Oh my god.
00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:47.680
Scar.
00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:50.799
Um okay, make an attack roll.
00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:52.480
What are you coming over here for?
00:28:52.559 --> 00:28:53.440
What do you come- what are you doing?
00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:53.920
What are you doing?
00:28:54.319 --> 00:28:54.960
Little guy.
00:28:55.200 --> 00:28:55.519
No.
00:28:58.799 --> 00:28:59.599
He's oiled up.
00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:00.720
He slips past you.
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:02.240
Yeah, he's still wet from the pool.
00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:13.200
And you see, as he slips past you, he like his eyes like glaze over for a second as he looks just beyond your backs, like the way that you guys came from.
00:29:14.720 --> 00:29:17.920
What are you- what are you doing here?
00:29:19.200 --> 00:29:19.440
Oh no.
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:21.200
Rex, do you see anything?
00:29:21.279 --> 00:29:22.000
I I'm not sure.
00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:37.039
Rex, you turn around and for an instant you see white robes, gray, crackly skin, the priest of Mogus, Hexus from the Labyrinth.
00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:39.839
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
00:29:42.400 --> 00:29:42.880
Yeah.
00:29:43.119 --> 00:29:44.000
Oh, I know him.
00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:46.559
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:48.079
Uh Phil, Phil, Phil.
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:48.880
Do you see that guy?
00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:50.880
Yes! What is he doing here?
00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:52.400
I think he's trying to fuck with me.
00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:54.400
Fuck him! I yeah, fuck him.
00:29:54.640 --> 00:29:55.359
Fuck him! Yeah.
00:29:55.519 --> 00:29:56.000
How do you know him?
00:29:56.319 --> 00:29:57.440
We don't do Mogus anymore.
00:29:57.680 --> 00:30:00.319
I used to be a Mogus guy! Yeah, me too, brother.
00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:03.359
Right, but uh I don't we know him from the labyrinth.
00:30:03.519 --> 00:30:04.799
I know him from the war.
00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:05.839
Who is he in the war?
00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:08.799
He was a fucking high priest of Mogus in the war!
00:30:09.119 --> 00:30:10.000
Is he just standing there?
00:30:10.079 --> 00:30:10.960
Why is he standing there?
00:30:11.119 --> 00:30:12.400
He waves at you.
00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:16.319
Don't wave back.
00:30:16.480 --> 00:30:17.119
Don't wave back.
00:30:17.359 --> 00:30:17.519
Why?
00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:20.319
Rex takes out his Mogus sword.
00:30:21.440 --> 00:30:21.920
Rex.
00:30:22.319 --> 00:30:24.640
It black smoke billows out behind it.
00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:27.839
I want to run over and try to take a swing at Hexus.
00:30:28.160 --> 00:30:28.480
Okay.
00:30:28.799 --> 00:30:30.319
Um, make an attack roll.
00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:32.160
Rex, know this feels like what he wants.
00:30:32.400 --> 00:30:33.279
Okay, it's fine.
00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:36.640
Uh only a 12.
00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:37.920
12 does not hit.
00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:40.160
You see, he sidesteps, he goes, please!
00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:42.960
Please! Whoa.
00:30:43.359 --> 00:30:44.640
You're in my fucking head.
00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:45.920
I know that voice.
00:30:46.160 --> 00:30:47.759
I that is not my voice.
00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:49.279
What are you talking about?
00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:50.480
This is how I talk.
00:30:50.559 --> 00:30:52.480
What do you you sound crazy right now?
00:30:54.079 --> 00:30:55.519
I think you can tell it's not the same voice.
00:30:56.160 --> 00:30:57.680
I'll say that because I'm kind of doing a similar voice.
00:30:58.079 --> 00:31:02.240
But I guess Rex would be uh confused and be like, maybe this is the guy who's fucking with him.
00:31:02.400 --> 00:31:05.119
You think that for a moment, but just for it's it's different enough.
00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:06.799
Like it doesn't feel as arcane.
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:10.880
He goes, I just came to watch the pageant.
00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:14.799
That seems like a weird thing for a Mogus guy to do.
00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:17.200
Is there not beauty in slaughter?
00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:18.480
Is he really there?
00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:20.079
Is he corporeal?
00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:21.599
I'm corporeal.
00:31:21.920 --> 00:31:22.640
You're corporeal?
00:31:24.640 --> 00:31:25.680
I don't like you.
00:31:26.000 --> 00:31:28.400
You're doing you you guys look great.
00:31:28.640 --> 00:31:31.039
So you're here because you've heard of all the people dying.
00:31:31.200 --> 00:31:32.240
That's highly suspicious.
00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:32.799
What?
00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:34.400
Nah, I did not say that.
00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:38.160
I'm saying that there's beauty in slaughter.
00:31:38.400 --> 00:31:42.799
Yeah, that's which leads you to recognize beauty, which leads you to revere beauty.
00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:44.000
Revere beauty, yeah.
00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:45.359
That's from the Mogus.
00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:46.160
Yeah.
00:31:46.559 --> 00:31:48.960
That feels like a really roundabout way to get to beauty.
00:31:49.359 --> 00:31:53.279
Now it's all a thing about like suffering allows you to understand not suffering.
00:31:53.519 --> 00:31:54.960
But that but he didn't say that.
00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:56.319
He said suffering is beautiful.
00:31:56.640 --> 00:31:58.720
I'm here to watch a friend perform.
00:31:59.119 --> 00:31:59.839
A friend?
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:01.440
Wait, who's your friend?
00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:05.920
His i I I met him quite a while ago.
00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:08.079
Uh his name is Peppy.
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:09.920
You're friends with Peppy?
00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:11.440
You're friends with Peppy?
00:32:12.559 --> 00:32:13.200
Yes.
00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:15.599
Where do you know Peppy from?
00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:19.279
We met God far before the war.
00:32:19.519 --> 00:32:20.480
Uh Peppy?
00:32:22.079 --> 00:32:22.880
Peppy.
00:32:23.759 --> 00:32:24.400
Yes.
00:32:25.599 --> 00:32:34.559
Why do you You see his like crackling skin continues to c like it, it it's it's cracking and reforming in every second as he says this.
00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:35.839
He goes, That's so cool.
00:32:36.480 --> 00:32:38.240
Peppy and I were boys, one.
00:32:38.960 --> 00:32:39.359
Oh my god.
00:32:39.759 --> 00:32:41.359
We were brothers in college.
00:32:41.599 --> 00:32:42.640
Is your face okay?
00:32:42.799 --> 00:32:45.599
I don't I don't remember it doing that.
00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:51.440
He goes, The longer I'm away from my people, the more this happens.
00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:53.200
The longer you're away from your people.
00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:54.880
Like the brothers of Mogus?
00:32:55.599 --> 00:32:55.839
Yes.
00:32:56.000 --> 00:32:58.400
I require blood to stay young.
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:01.119
Oh, you're a vampire.
00:33:01.440 --> 00:33:02.640
I wouldn't say that.
00:33:03.039 --> 00:33:05.200
It sounds like that sounds just like.
00:33:05.680 --> 00:33:06.319
You don't mind.
00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:07.440
Phil steps forward.
00:33:07.599 --> 00:33:22.160
You get out of here! Get out of here! I know, like he stepped- he walks forward and puts his finger on Hexus' chest and goes, you beat it because people like you, they people die, and people keep dying, and it's war and suffering never ends.
00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:23.839
You get on out of here!
00:33:24.640 --> 00:33:28.559
Hexus goes, I can see I've touched a nerve.
00:33:29.119 --> 00:33:32.640
I'll leave you boys to your swimming.
00:33:33.279 --> 00:33:34.640
We're playing pool.
00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:36.079
Yes, I'm sure.
00:33:36.319 --> 00:33:37.839
And next time I'm not gonna miss.
00:33:38.079 --> 00:33:40.880
And next time I'm not gonna use your stupid sword.
00:33:41.519 --> 00:33:43.039
What are you going to do with it?
00:33:44.480 --> 00:33:47.279
Probably just like chuck it in a ravine or something.
00:33:48.720 --> 00:33:50.319
If you don't want it anymore.
00:33:51.279 --> 00:33:52.240
Destroy it.
00:33:52.880 --> 00:33:54.160
You'd like that, wouldn't you?
00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:57.279
Yeah, I'll probably take it to the Forge of Perforos and destroy it.
00:33:58.160 --> 00:34:01.680
You'd you'd this feels like reverse psychology.
00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:04.640
Janice, I have to talk to you away from this guy.
00:34:04.880 --> 00:34:05.359
Right now?
00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:05.839
Yes.
00:34:06.160 --> 00:34:06.400
Okay.
00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:09.519
I'll be watching you.
00:34:09.760 --> 00:34:10.559
I wish you wouldn't.
00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:11.360
Fuck.
00:34:11.840 --> 00:34:18.000
So you guys walk away, and Phil, Phil, like, pushes past this guy and goes up to his room.
00:34:18.239 --> 00:34:18.800
Oh no.
00:34:19.039 --> 00:34:21.519
I feel like I really fucked up with Phil.
00:34:21.760 --> 00:34:22.400
I think you did.
00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:23.360
I think we both fucked up with the file.
00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:26.320
I think we both fucked up with Phil.
00:34:26.480 --> 00:34:28.159
No, um, Janice.
00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:31.599
Um I think Mogus is in the sword.
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:33.039
He's in the sword?
00:34:33.199 --> 00:34:34.639
I think he's in the sword.
00:34:35.360 --> 00:34:38.559
So if we destroy the sword, we release Mogus.
00:34:40.480 --> 00:34:42.880
Oh, Rex, that's the smartest thing you've ever said.
00:34:44.880 --> 00:34:46.320
It just came to me.
00:34:46.639 --> 00:34:47.360
Brilliant.
00:34:47.840 --> 00:34:51.440
I think it's just like school is working out pretty good for me.
00:34:51.840 --> 00:34:54.559
Yeah, what are you- what's your assignment right now?
00:34:54.800 --> 00:34:55.679
It's under the blade.
00:34:55.840 --> 00:34:56.000
Oh.
00:34:56.239 --> 00:34:58.159
Oh, you think the book's in cahoots?
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:01.360
The book has fucked up, has been weird to me before.
00:35:01.599 --> 00:35:03.119
The book has gotten weird to you.
00:35:03.360 --> 00:35:04.239
Let's ask Ruby.
00:35:04.320 --> 00:35:06.800
Let's ask Ruby why Ruby's being weird?
00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:10.559
No, because I did ask Ruby once, and Ruby said, I don't remember that.
00:35:10.719 --> 00:35:16.079
But if we ask Ruby if Mogus is in the sword, maybe it'll trigger some sort of sense memory.
00:35:16.320 --> 00:35:17.519
Okay, it's worth a shot.
00:35:17.599 --> 00:35:19.119
I mean, what else do we have to ask Ruby?
00:35:20.000 --> 00:35:21.760
What else do we have to ask Ruby?
00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:23.199
I don't know.
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:24.400
Open the scroll rex.
00:35:24.639 --> 00:35:24.960
Okay.
00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:25.679
Hello!
00:35:26.159 --> 00:35:26.639
Ruby.
00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:30.159
Hi! Ruby, we got something juicy for you, my man.
00:35:30.480 --> 00:35:32.159
The scroll spins around in the air.
00:35:32.320 --> 00:35:33.280
Oh, I love juice.
00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:35.039
Yeah, you do.
00:35:35.280 --> 00:35:36.320
Janiceps juice bottom.
00:35:36.559 --> 00:35:37.440
That's what I call ink.
00:35:38.239 --> 00:35:39.840
He's a juice hound, this guy.
00:35:40.000 --> 00:35:40.719
Yeah, me too.
00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:41.440
You too.
00:35:41.760 --> 00:35:42.480
You too, yeah.
00:35:42.639 --> 00:35:43.519
Wait, Ruby.
00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:46.079
Um Ruby.
00:35:46.320 --> 00:35:47.440
Uh here's the thing.
00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:48.880
I got a working theory.
00:35:49.119 --> 00:35:51.360
I just ran into Pete Hexeth.
00:35:52.880 --> 00:35:53.760
Is it Hexus?
00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:54.559
Hexus.
00:35:54.800 --> 00:35:55.440
Hexus.
00:35:55.760 --> 00:35:56.320
Hexus.
00:35:56.639 --> 00:36:00.559
And he uh, you know, he you familiar with him?
00:36:00.800 --> 00:36:02.239
Uh I believe so.
00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:04.239
Yes, from your time in the labyrinth.
00:36:04.480 --> 00:36:05.440
Yes, okay, perfect.
00:36:05.519 --> 00:36:06.719
You we're on the same page.
00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:09.440
And that's funny because you're a book, kind of.
00:36:09.679 --> 00:36:11.119
Um Ruby.
00:36:11.679 --> 00:36:17.440
He encouraged me to s to uh go destroy the blade of Mogus.
00:36:18.000 --> 00:36:19.519
And that's crazy, right?
00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:27.199
Because you would think, oh, I, you know, you would be like, that's a relic, you know, that's something important for Mogus people, you know.
00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:35.760
It was on the cover of our like, you know, it was in there's a page about it in the diary that in the flip book that we had that taught us about it in college.
00:36:36.000 --> 00:36:37.679
Now, here's the other thing.
00:36:37.840 --> 00:36:45.199
Why would he do that, other than maybe Mogus is in the sword, and the only way to get him out is if I sunder it.
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:46.320
What's your question?
00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:50.880
Can you tell me if this Mogus is in the sword, please?
00:36:51.840 --> 00:37:02.880
Well, I don't think that I'd be able to know for sure if it's in a sword, but I I I do know that legend says that when a god dies, they are shattered into many parts.
00:37:03.039 --> 00:37:11.199
I don't think it's likely that a god who dies or disappears would be put in a something as simple as an item as a weapon.
00:37:11.519 --> 00:37:18.159
I suppose that it's possible that it it it could be part of the god, but I don't know.
00:37:18.320 --> 00:37:23.840
Perhaps this Hexus is planning to set a trap for you to get it back?
00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:25.760
Maybe there's a piece of Mogus in it.
00:37:26.000 --> 00:37:27.199
But in the core.
00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:27.920
Yes.
00:37:28.159 --> 00:37:30.960
But wait, you wanted me to sunder the blade.
00:37:31.119 --> 00:37:32.320
That's my question.
00:37:32.559 --> 00:37:35.519
You wanted me to sunder the blade as my next assignment.
00:37:35.760 --> 00:37:37.840
Yes, your next assignment is to sunder.
00:37:38.400 --> 00:37:42.480
Wait, to sunder the blade of Mogus or to sunder?
00:37:42.719 --> 00:37:44.960
The next assignment is just to sunder.
00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:46.159
What?
00:37:46.639 --> 00:37:47.280
Sunder.
00:37:47.840 --> 00:37:49.760
It is one word, sunder.
00:37:50.559 --> 00:37:53.840
Who gives you I I know I asked you this before.
00:37:54.000 --> 00:37:55.039
I'm gonna ask again.
00:37:55.199 --> 00:37:57.039
Who tells you what to tell me what to do?
00:37:57.360 --> 00:38:00.480
I'm programmed by an oracle of some sort.
00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:06.320
I'm not of a pine, like I've not told, but I would love to know myself.
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:08.639
That way I can understand my father.
00:38:09.280 --> 00:38:09.519
Ruby.
00:38:09.840 --> 00:38:10.239
You have a father.
00:38:10.800 --> 00:38:11.119
Or mother.
00:38:11.519 --> 00:38:13.599
Ruby, Ruby, I vow to you.
00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:14.079
Okay?
00:38:14.400 --> 00:38:16.079
I vow to you because we are brothers.
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:18.159
We are yeah, we're brothers.
00:38:18.480 --> 00:38:22.719
At this point, and Janice, we're brothers, Patch we're brothers, obviously Lucy's a brother.
00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:27.119
And we have to uh I vow to you.
00:38:27.360 --> 00:38:31.840
I will I will find out the mystery of how you came to be, okay?
00:38:32.239 --> 00:38:40.159
I vow to you that I will be here the whole way to provide factories and useful pieces of trivia and information that might prove helpful to you and the other.
00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:40.960
Okay, bye Ruby.
00:38:41.280 --> 00:38:44.800
Alright, wait Wait, wait, I'm scroll me, I'm scrolling, I'm scrolling.
00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:45.519
Okay.
00:38:45.760 --> 00:38:47.280
I love that word you said earlier.
00:38:47.679 --> 00:38:49.039
Oh, uh Xyloform.
00:38:49.360 --> 00:38:49.679
Awesome.
00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:51.280
Scroll me back up, scroll me back up.
00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:52.000
Oh, wait.
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:52.559
What?
00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:57.039
I uh uh speaking of words with X's, tell me a bit about Hexus.
00:38:57.440 --> 00:38:59.679
I'm sorry, I've I've I've been spent for the day.
00:38:59.840 --> 00:39:00.639
Gosh darn it.
00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:02.800
Janice, you can have it tomorrow, okay?
00:39:03.039 --> 00:39:03.679
It's fine.
00:39:03.920 --> 00:39:06.719
I don't kind of I don't like that Ruby's just kind of like listening to us.
00:39:07.599 --> 00:39:08.639
Not unlike an AI.
00:39:08.800 --> 00:39:09.840
You just made a good vow.
00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:14.320
Yeah, but I can do the world is made of greys, not black and whites, Janice.
00:39:14.480 --> 00:39:17.280
You're right, Janice says, covered in black and whites.
00:39:19.360 --> 00:39:22.880
Uh Lucy and Patch uh return downstairs.
00:39:23.039 --> 00:39:27.920
Uh you see uh uh Rex and Janice are standing around Ruby having just put it away.
00:39:28.159 --> 00:39:29.360
Why are you guys so wet?
00:39:29.679 --> 00:39:30.400
We are playing pool.
00:39:30.559 --> 00:39:31.119
We're in the pool.
00:39:31.360 --> 00:39:32.800
But uh okay.
00:39:33.039 --> 00:39:34.000
We have stuff to tell you.
00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:35.679
I'm gonna tell you to you really quickly, okay?
00:39:35.840 --> 00:39:36.000
Okay.
00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:38.719
Pete Hexeth is here.
00:39:39.039 --> 00:39:40.400
Phil Hexus.
00:39:40.960 --> 00:39:41.760
Hexus is here.
00:39:41.920 --> 00:39:42.639
Hexus is next to us.
00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:43.599
Hexeth is here.
00:39:43.760 --> 00:39:45.599
He's Hexus is next to us?
00:39:45.840 --> 00:39:47.119
Hexus is Nexus.
00:39:47.280 --> 00:39:54.079
And he And he's old friends with uh fucking Phil Collins?
00:39:54.639 --> 00:39:54.960
Peppy.
00:39:55.280 --> 00:40:00.159
Oh, Peppy! Peppy! You said that Phil said what are you t Phil's good.
00:40:00.320 --> 00:40:01.679
Phil's actually really chill.
00:40:01.760 --> 00:40:04.239
He's a teetotaler, but he is chill.
00:40:04.480 --> 00:40:10.719
Except for there was a moment where Phil had that same look in his eye that Rex gets when he does something violent against his will.
00:40:11.039 --> 00:40:12.559
Voices! Did you ask him about it?
00:40:13.440 --> 00:40:15.840
Uh no, he was kind of going through some stuff.
00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:25.920
I think he only got that way because it could be that that, but it also could be that he was just shocked to see this old guy uh was in the mocha, he was in the wars and he was on the mocha side.
00:40:26.000 --> 00:40:26.159
Yes.
00:40:26.239 --> 00:40:27.280
But he But he's chill?
00:40:27.519 --> 00:40:28.559
He surrendered, yes.
00:40:28.800 --> 00:40:37.119
And he's chill, and I do I am curious why his why um why his ne why his niece, why he's with his niece and not her her parents are here.
00:40:37.440 --> 00:40:38.079
So you asked him?
00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:39.199
No, no, no, forgot.
00:40:40.239 --> 00:40:42.559
Oh we'll ask him later.
00:40:42.800 --> 00:40:44.960
Um, but that's not all.
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:46.719
Sorry.
00:40:48.320 --> 00:40:48.719
What?
00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:49.119
Okay.
00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:52.159
The big thing is, Janice, I'm gonna pass it over to you.
00:40:52.320 --> 00:40:54.480
Even though I came up with it, I'm the smartest person.
00:40:54.719 --> 00:40:56.320
Janice, go ahead and tell him.
00:40:56.960 --> 00:40:59.440
Okay, there was something else I wanted to tell you first.
00:40:59.599 --> 00:41:00.719
Uh Janice.
00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:02.960
Sorry, oh you just missed that alley oop.
00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:12.079
So Rex discovered that the sword of Mogus may contain a piece of Mogus itself because Hexus is trying to get us to sunder it.
00:41:12.239 --> 00:41:14.480
So we're thinking maybe we don't maybe don't sunder it.
00:41:14.639 --> 00:41:15.440
Maybe don't sunder it.
00:41:15.519 --> 00:41:15.679
Okay.
00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:18.079
Maybe don't sunder it, but then I don't put it under anything.
00:41:18.159 --> 00:41:19.440
Keep it on top all the time.
00:41:19.679 --> 00:41:20.079
I got it.
00:41:20.159 --> 00:41:21.360
It's on top of the bag.
00:41:21.679 --> 00:41:26.400
But here's the thing I need to find out why Ruby wants me to sunder it.
00:41:26.559 --> 00:41:28.719
Right, because we don't know what Ruby wants or who Ruby wants.
00:41:28.800 --> 00:41:30.159
But Ruby didn't say sunder it.
00:41:30.320 --> 00:41:31.440
She just said sunder.
00:41:31.679 --> 00:41:33.440
So just like sunder something.
00:41:33.679 --> 00:41:34.719
Return to sunder?
00:41:34.960 --> 00:41:35.440
Was it Ruby?
00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:36.559
Kill myself?
00:41:36.880 --> 00:41:37.039
No.
00:41:37.360 --> 00:41:41.679
Ruby was given to you by your dean, who also worked with Queen Juliana.
00:41:41.920 --> 00:41:44.000
We should My Mom, thank you very much.
00:41:44.159 --> 00:41:46.960
Yes, I don't know her personally, so I called her by a royal title.
00:41:47.119 --> 00:41:48.639
You can call her Rex's mom from now on.
00:41:48.800 --> 00:41:49.679
That doesn't seem respectful.
00:41:49.920 --> 00:42:00.719
But here's the thing, Rex, is all of these like violent impulses seem to be like even Ruby was affected by it, and you've been affected by it.
00:42:00.960 --> 00:42:01.519
When?
00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:04.639
Dennis just stares at Rex.
00:42:04.880 --> 00:42:06.960
No, all three of us just stare at Rex.
00:42:07.360 --> 00:42:08.320
Yeah, yeah, you're right.
00:42:08.400 --> 00:42:10.159
I did try to take a swing at Hexith.
00:42:10.480 --> 00:42:16.480
And I'm worried that Phil um may be prone to the same fits of violence.
00:42:16.800 --> 00:42:17.119
Right.
00:42:17.280 --> 00:42:24.639
So if if if only part of Mogus is in the sword, do you think he's in other things around nearby?
00:42:24.960 --> 00:42:25.360
Could be.
00:42:25.599 --> 00:42:26.239
Like a coin?
00:42:26.960 --> 00:42:27.519
Maybe a coin.
00:42:29.679 --> 00:42:33.039
Phil also had that big gash of a sp from a spear.
00:42:33.360 --> 00:42:34.880
Maybe a little bit of spears in him.
00:42:35.119 --> 00:42:36.320
You have a gash on you, too.
00:42:36.559 --> 00:42:38.079
Did you ever get hit with the sword of Mogus?
00:42:39.760 --> 00:42:40.960
No, not that.
00:42:41.760 --> 00:42:45.039
Rex, did you ever get hit with the sword of Mogus when you were dueling that guy?
00:42:45.280 --> 00:42:45.920
I don't think so.
00:42:46.079 --> 00:42:46.719
I got it.
00:42:46.800 --> 00:42:47.920
And I've never hit by it.
00:42:48.880 --> 00:42:49.119
Correct.
00:42:49.280 --> 00:42:50.480
I've never been hit by the sword.
00:42:50.719 --> 00:42:51.039
You're right.
00:42:51.280 --> 00:42:52.480
It might be a mark of Mogus.
00:42:52.719 --> 00:42:55.199
Well, Phil had a big gash and made me think about Rex's gash.
00:42:55.280 --> 00:42:55.679
Yeah.
00:42:57.119 --> 00:42:57.679
Alright.
00:42:58.079 --> 00:43:01.840
Well, we found leaving the gash station.
00:43:02.079 --> 00:43:08.960
And I didn't get to tell I didn't get to tell you this, Lucy, but um when we we went to Viranda's office and she was she was kind of mean.
00:43:09.039 --> 00:43:10.480
Um scary.
00:43:10.800 --> 00:43:11.280
Is intense.
00:43:11.440 --> 00:43:11.920
She's intense.
00:43:12.079 --> 00:43:13.360
I think I'm gonna try to work for her.
00:43:13.599 --> 00:43:18.559
Yeah, I don't To be honest, Lucy, like I think she was mean.
00:43:18.639 --> 00:43:21.920
I don't like how she spoke to you, but I don't suspect her.
00:43:22.159 --> 00:43:41.039
I I wasn't even I gotta look at some of her notes on her desk, and she will here's one thing I want to note, and I'm also gonna say my theory about my theory is that it doesn't really matter, is is that that woman, Hilden, um, I she's a a pris a prisoner from the labyrinth, and Viranda is like writing things so that she can come be here.
00:43:41.119 --> 00:43:45.840
I don't think that's such a big deal for someone who's incarcerated to not reveal that information.
00:43:46.400 --> 00:43:50.559
But just something to note that she might also have Mogus affiliation if she's been in the labyrinth.
00:43:51.199 --> 00:43:57.679
She was also writing a note saying that she was angry about um Hugo betraying her by moving to Real Housewives with Narcisum.
00:43:58.000 --> 00:43:59.280
But uh but again, I don't know.
00:43:59.360 --> 00:44:02.960
She doesn't Seem like she would debase herself by murdering.
00:44:03.280 --> 00:44:03.840
No, I know.
00:44:03.920 --> 00:44:04.960
I don't think that so either.
00:44:05.199 --> 00:44:08.800
I think maybe we can table her until tomorrow morning because she and I have a dual setup.
00:44:09.679 --> 00:44:10.800
Oh, oh, oh!
00:44:11.039 --> 00:44:13.039
Lucy totally outmogged her.
00:44:13.119 --> 00:44:13.599
I did! I did.
00:44:13.920 --> 00:44:14.559
Good job, Lucy.
00:44:14.719 --> 00:44:15.679
I did, I did like this.
00:44:15.840 --> 00:44:16.159
Yeah.
00:44:16.400 --> 00:44:17.679
And she folded.
00:44:18.000 --> 00:44:20.880
You've been really doing your mouth stretches and your uh.
00:44:21.519 --> 00:44:22.480
No, it comes naturally.
00:44:22.559 --> 00:44:23.519
I don't have to practice.
00:44:23.679 --> 00:44:23.840
Oh.
00:44:24.159 --> 00:44:27.920
You see, coming down from the staircase are some of the contestants.
00:44:28.079 --> 00:44:31.039
Um, you see the really everyone you're familiar with.
00:44:31.119 --> 00:44:33.760
You see Ryan, you see Peppy, you see Evelyn, you see Hilden.
00:44:34.159 --> 00:44:42.159
Uh, they are heading towards like the conference room from earlier that the Continental Breakfast was in um to finish up the rehearsal.
00:44:42.400 --> 00:44:46.480
Peppy walks up to you guys and goes, Are you guys going to the rest of the rehearsal?
00:44:46.719 --> 00:44:47.679
We probably should, right?
00:44:47.840 --> 00:44:48.639
I need to talk to this guy.
00:44:48.800 --> 00:44:49.920
Yeah, I think we're on our way.
00:44:50.159 --> 00:44:51.519
We we want to talk to Peppy.
00:44:51.840 --> 00:44:52.960
You would like to talk to Peppy?
00:44:53.119 --> 00:44:53.920
We'd like to talk to Peppy.
00:44:54.159 --> 00:44:54.719
I want to talk to Peppy.
00:44:54.880 --> 00:44:55.840
I would love to talk to you guys.
00:44:56.000 --> 00:44:57.440
We would love a little Peppy talk.
00:44:57.599 --> 00:44:58.079
Ha ha ha!
00:44:59.280 --> 00:44:59.679
Yes, sir.
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:02.719
That is what my parents said before I said my first word.
00:45:03.039 --> 00:45:03.840
Shut up, Peppy.
00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:05.119
We haven't talked to you.
00:45:05.920 --> 00:45:06.559
Peppy.
00:45:06.719 --> 00:45:07.199
Peppy.
00:45:07.519 --> 00:45:11.119
We learned some things about the company you keep.
00:45:11.440 --> 00:45:12.239
Hi, yes.
00:45:12.400 --> 00:45:14.320
And the secrets that you sleep.
00:45:14.639 --> 00:45:14.960
Oh.
00:45:15.760 --> 00:45:17.280
And your friend Hextus.
00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:20.400
P Hexus from college! Yeah.
00:45:21.280 --> 00:45:21.840
I love that guy.
00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:23.440
Yeah, he's here to support you.
00:45:23.840 --> 00:45:24.159
Oh.
00:45:24.960 --> 00:45:25.440
Really?
00:45:25.840 --> 00:45:26.320
You're surprised.
00:45:26.880 --> 00:45:27.599
College is here to support you.
00:45:27.760 --> 00:45:28.159
Is that a lot of people?
00:45:28.480 --> 00:45:29.840
Were you brothers of Mogus?
00:45:30.320 --> 00:45:30.800
Is that a real team?
00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:31.840
Yeah, roll insight.
00:45:32.079 --> 00:45:33.199
That seems surprised to me.
00:45:33.360 --> 00:45:37.519
He goes, I joined many fraternities in college, including one of Mogis.
00:45:38.159 --> 00:45:39.199
Many fraternities?
00:45:39.280 --> 00:45:39.760
That's awesome.
00:45:40.000 --> 00:45:41.280
I was in everyone wanted me.
00:45:41.519 --> 00:45:42.079
Patch got a seven.
00:45:42.320 --> 00:45:44.239
Both sexually and in terms of rushing.
00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:44.639
Okay.
00:45:44.800 --> 00:45:45.679
Rex got a 20.
00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:46.960
I don't know what Janice got.
00:45:47.119 --> 00:45:47.679
A 21.
00:45:47.840 --> 00:45:48.480
I got a 17.
00:45:48.719 --> 00:45:53.920
Everyone except for Patch sees that he sees that he seems genuinely like, the fuck is he doing here?
00:45:54.000 --> 00:45:59.440
Like he remembers the guy, but i they don't seem like in touch.
00:45:59.760 --> 00:46:09.599
I'm suspicious of anyone who has been in contact with this Hexus guy not having full autonomy of themselves and doing things they maybe wouldn't normally do.
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:11.440
What if it's multiple people?
00:46:11.679 --> 00:46:11.920
Yeah.
00:46:12.079 --> 00:46:12.320
Yes.
00:46:12.559 --> 00:46:15.119
What if what if I'm gonna have to do something?
00:46:16.000 --> 00:46:18.639
Well, Rex, don't! Well, I can't control that all.
00:46:18.960 --> 00:46:20.559
Well, just tell us if you're going to, and let's get it.
00:46:20.719 --> 00:46:23.599
Okay, I'll tell you, but the last time I told you something was going wrong with me.
00:46:23.840 --> 00:46:25.360
Let me swipe at a freaking banner.
00:46:25.760 --> 00:46:28.400
Okay, well, don't do something that has easy puns and is fun to make fun of.
00:46:28.639 --> 00:46:30.559
Peppy feels like he's enthroting on the friend of event.
00:46:30.880 --> 00:46:31.599
No, thank you, Peppy.
00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:34.000
That's like Peppy feels like Peppy feels out of place.
00:46:36.639 --> 00:46:37.440
And spicy Peppy.
00:46:37.599 --> 00:46:37.920
Peppy.
00:46:38.480 --> 00:46:39.039
Then then Peppy.
00:46:39.199 --> 00:46:39.280
Dr.
00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:39.599
Peppi.
00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:40.960
That is what they said about me in college.
00:46:41.119 --> 00:46:42.239
I was very desired.
00:46:42.639 --> 00:46:42.880
Dr.
00:46:42.960 --> 00:46:50.400
Peppy, do you have anything from your days in college, or maybe anything that's associated with Mogus?
00:46:50.960 --> 00:46:54.639
Like that you carry around with you, or maybe that like got planted on you?
00:46:55.119 --> 00:47:02.239
In uh the Revelands, we do not so much uh do that sort of uh god worship stuff.
00:47:02.480 --> 00:47:06.159
Yeah, but then you joined the fraternity after you got trapped here after you couldn't get back.
00:47:06.800 --> 00:47:09.760
Okay, do you have but do you have any uh just like item?
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:10.480
Yeah.
00:47:10.800 --> 00:47:12.800
A thing he starts going through his pockets.
00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:15.199
Would you mind taking off your your clothes?
00:47:15.440 --> 00:47:18.000
Okay! He uh pulls off his shirt.
00:47:18.079 --> 00:47:19.360
Um, you don't see anything.
00:47:19.519 --> 00:47:21.039
He goes, I don't have any items.
00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:22.320
Do I see any wounds?
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:27.199
Um, make it make um perception or medicine check anyway.
00:47:27.360 --> 00:47:28.480
Oh, I'll do medicine.
00:47:29.360 --> 00:47:32.320
Perception only a 14 from Rex.
00:47:32.639 --> 00:47:33.199
Ah, damn it.
00:47:33.360 --> 00:47:34.000
I got an eight.
00:47:34.239 --> 00:47:34.960
I got a 10.
00:47:35.119 --> 00:47:36.960
Does a 14 perception get us there?
00:47:37.119 --> 00:47:38.000
I got a 12.
00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:44.079
I'll say 14 and 12 are enough to notice, especially having seen like uh Phil's wound.
00:47:44.159 --> 00:47:45.360
You don't see something like that.
00:47:45.519 --> 00:47:48.719
Like, he he has some blemishes, like he's you know, he's lived 300 years.
00:47:49.199 --> 00:47:50.239
Got a big cyst on his back, though.
00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:50.639
Dr.
00:47:50.719 --> 00:47:52.960
Peppy, you should get that, you should get this one checked out.
00:47:53.440 --> 00:47:56.000
But I'm doctor, do that mean I can't get sick.
00:47:56.639 --> 00:47:56.960
What?
00:47:57.280 --> 00:47:59.840
Hey, well, different different doctors handle different things.
00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:03.119
I gotta say, that's that's awesome, Spencer.
00:48:03.519 --> 00:48:03.679
What?
00:48:04.000 --> 00:48:05.280
What a great idea.
00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:06.960
Doctors can't get sick.
00:48:07.199 --> 00:48:08.960
Look, medicine in your body.
00:48:09.199 --> 00:48:10.320
Peppy, that's sick.
00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:13.840
But how do you think you handle pills and that gets it in your hand?
00:48:14.079 --> 00:48:23.599
Peppy, have you had any time whenever you've been here where you felt like you maybe weren't yourself like, ooh, maybe I should grab a bunch of these berries and rub them on my face and kiss this girl on the cheek.
00:48:23.920 --> 00:48:27.039
Or maybe I should or times that you can't remember.
00:48:27.280 --> 00:48:29.199
Yeah, any times that you feel to remember.
00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:32.480
Like, do you have any thoughts in your memory since you've been here?
00:48:33.119 --> 00:48:35.599
Eh, no, I remember everything pretty well.
00:48:35.920 --> 00:48:36.400
Alright.
00:48:36.639 --> 00:48:36.880
Okay.
00:48:37.119 --> 00:48:38.320
Tell are you telling the truth?
00:48:38.559 --> 00:48:39.039
You had to roll.
00:48:42.239 --> 00:48:43.840
And I wink and roll charisma.
00:48:44.239 --> 00:48:45.679
Anyone who wants to can roll insight.
00:48:46.400 --> 00:48:48.559
Um, have you guys been working on your talent?
00:48:48.880 --> 00:48:50.800
Oh, um don't need to.
00:48:51.199 --> 00:48:52.079
Yeah, no?
00:48:52.320 --> 00:48:53.119
I got a 15.
00:48:53.360 --> 00:48:53.599
15?
00:48:54.000 --> 00:48:54.480
24.
00:48:55.039 --> 00:48:56.800
24 definitely is enough.
00:48:57.039 --> 00:48:58.719
He seems to be being honest.
00:48:58.960 --> 00:49:00.480
He doesn't remember, he doesn't remember.
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:06.000
He as as far as he knows, like, truly he doesn't think about Mogus, like, ever.
00:49:06.400 --> 00:49:07.440
And he doesn't.
00:49:07.679 --> 00:49:14.239
What you're saying to him about like gaps in memory and like acting out of behavior, like Peppy.
00:49:14.559 --> 00:49:17.119
Peppy goes, Peppy is consistent.
00:49:17.440 --> 00:49:18.480
Oh, thank you, Peppy.
00:49:18.880 --> 00:49:20.639
Um, and good luck, good luck in the competition.
00:49:20.880 --> 00:49:21.199
Thank you.
00:49:21.280 --> 00:49:21.679
You as well.
00:49:21.760 --> 00:49:24.960
You're going to need I trounce, I trounce! I kick at him.
00:49:25.119 --> 00:49:27.280
I guess congrats on your active sex life.
00:49:27.360 --> 00:49:27.679
I don't know.
00:49:27.920 --> 00:49:30.719
Guys, I'm I'm kind of nervous about that we're gonna be competing.
00:49:30.880 --> 00:49:36.159
I feel like we have um we've I've been distracted with investigation, but we have to make our costumes.
00:49:36.719 --> 00:49:37.599
Oh yeah.
00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:38.000
Shoot.
00:49:38.239 --> 00:49:39.599
Oh no, I'll just minor illusion.
00:49:39.679 --> 00:49:40.239
I'd be fine.
00:49:40.480 --> 00:49:42.320
Okay, I guess I can tinker something together.
00:49:42.480 --> 00:49:42.639
Yeah.
00:49:42.800 --> 00:49:45.199
Um didn't Yemma say she would make it for us as long as you're gonna do it.
00:49:46.079 --> 00:49:46.559
She said we should help.
00:49:48.960 --> 00:49:53.840
Yemma um comes up to you and goes, My ears are burning, my ears are burning.
00:49:54.000 --> 00:49:55.039
We'll put them out.
00:49:57.119 --> 00:49:57.599
Classic joke.
00:49:57.840 --> 00:49:58.960
Yemma, you're super beautiful.
00:49:59.199 --> 00:50:00.400
Um, thank thank you.
00:50:00.639 --> 00:50:03.840
Uh I I just wanted to tell you guys, um, they've cleared the stage.
00:50:04.000 --> 00:50:11.920
They're working on doing just like a security sweep uh to make sure that there's nothing, like they're making sure everything's tightened, everything is good.
00:50:12.159 --> 00:50:15.360
I've got some materials for your costumes.
00:50:15.519 --> 00:50:18.960
Um you will have time to put those together uh uh shortly.
00:50:19.039 --> 00:50:27.360
I've enchanted them so that you will be able to magically sew them very quickly, but they will they will require you to spend that time.
00:50:27.599 --> 00:50:27.760
Okay.
00:50:28.239 --> 00:50:36.400
Um I I I I I don't I didn't I didn't want to curse it by by giving these to you too early, but um just um reaches into her backpack.
00:50:36.559 --> 00:50:37.119
Her toe pack.
00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:39.039
Spencer reaches into his backpack.
00:50:39.360 --> 00:50:40.480
Oh my gosh.
00:50:40.719 --> 00:50:43.039
Oh my gosh.
00:50:44.079 --> 00:50:45.199
Spencer's handing us sashes.
00:50:45.440 --> 00:50:46.559
Mine says Cyrus Perch!
00:50:46.800 --> 00:50:47.920
Mine says Plutopolis.
00:50:48.079 --> 00:50:50.239
Oh my gosh, and Patricia's gonna say carnage!
00:50:50.639 --> 00:50:53.039
I think I did use a little wrong, so if I need to redo it.
00:50:53.119 --> 00:50:57.440
Um my gosh, are we representing our places?
00:50:57.760 --> 00:51:02.239
Yemma passes out uh sashes with all of your hometowns written on them.
00:51:02.480 --> 00:51:03.519
Yep, Yemma.
00:51:04.159 --> 00:51:09.679
She goes, I I I didn't have a ton of time, but I, you know, stage witch, I can whip things up pretty quick.
00:51:09.760 --> 00:51:10.800
Uh, incredible.
00:51:11.039 --> 00:51:11.519
Yeah, you are there.
00:51:11.760 --> 00:51:12.320
You guys like this?
00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:13.119
Okay, cool.
00:51:13.360 --> 00:51:16.559
I I've always wanted a sash that says Sirens Perch on it.
00:51:16.960 --> 00:51:17.440
Really?
00:51:17.599 --> 00:51:18.239
Yeah.
00:51:18.639 --> 00:51:21.119
Well, um, I hope they I hope they bring you luck.
00:51:21.199 --> 00:51:33.679
Um I'm I'm really pulling for you guys, and I just I wanted to say that uh I don't know what's happening, but you guys have shown yourselves to be really strong and brave, and if someone is targeting contestants, I think the best thing you can do is win.
00:51:33.920 --> 00:51:37.840
Because then they're gonna target you, and if they come for you, they're not gonna be able to do it.
00:51:38.079 --> 00:51:40.800
Yeah, if they come for the king, king, king, they better not miss.
00:51:41.360 --> 00:51:44.719
Yemma, we plan on all winning simultaneously.
00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:46.320
Right.
00:51:46.480 --> 00:51:51.119
What happens if we get to the top we're the top four, and then you guys are gonna feel bad when I win.
00:51:51.280 --> 00:51:56.800
Oh, if you just give me if we all make an agreement, Patchy could wish that I win.
00:51:58.239 --> 00:51:59.599
Patchy could wish that I win.
00:52:00.159 --> 00:52:02.800
Why wouldn't I just wish that I won and then I can give you the elixir?
00:52:03.199 --> 00:52:03.519
That's fine.
00:52:03.599 --> 00:52:08.559
Yeah, if everyone agrees that um you give me the elixir or maybe I pay you for it, or whatever.
00:52:08.960 --> 00:52:10.000
Oh, you can pay me for it.
00:52:10.159 --> 00:52:10.800
Yeah, I'll pay for you.
00:52:10.880 --> 00:52:12.639
I'll take it out of the slush button.
00:52:13.280 --> 00:52:16.559
Did we talk about Mogus getting this body restoration thing, that being bad?
00:52:16.800 --> 00:52:17.840
Oh, yeah, that makes sense.
00:52:18.000 --> 00:52:18.559
Oh, yeah.
00:52:18.719 --> 00:52:19.679
Mogus gets the thing.
00:52:19.840 --> 00:52:20.480
Bodily purity.
00:52:20.719 --> 00:52:21.440
Bodily purity.
00:52:21.519 --> 00:52:21.760
Yeah.
00:52:22.000 --> 00:52:23.119
You think it works for bulls?
00:52:23.360 --> 00:52:24.000
You dog.
00:52:24.320 --> 00:52:26.320
I thought I was the smart one.
00:52:27.039 --> 00:52:27.679
I helped.
00:52:27.920 --> 00:52:28.239
Quiet.
00:52:29.039 --> 00:52:35.119
Yemma goes, um, I think that if you guys are any more late to the rehearsal, I think that Hugo is going to pass the gun.
00:52:35.679 --> 00:52:37.840
She runs, uh, leaves them to get there on time.
00:52:38.159 --> 00:52:47.440
As you guys enter the conference room where they're like finishing up the QR-ography, you see Hugo is tapping his foot and checking his watch like like a sassy bugs bunny.
00:52:47.599 --> 00:52:50.400
Just like pissed off, just like huge foot tapping away.
00:52:50.800 --> 00:52:52.559
Um Can I walk up to him really quick?
00:52:52.719 --> 00:52:52.880
Yeah.
00:52:53.119 --> 00:52:54.639
Hey buddy, heads up.
00:52:54.880 --> 00:52:56.639
She knows it wasn't me.
00:52:57.199 --> 00:52:57.760
She knows what?
00:52:57.920 --> 00:52:58.400
She knows what.
00:52:58.480 --> 00:52:59.119
What are you talking about?
00:52:59.360 --> 00:52:59.920
She knows.
00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:01.360
She knows.
00:53:01.599 --> 00:53:02.159
She knows.
00:53:03.199 --> 00:53:03.360
Oh.
00:53:03.760 --> 00:53:04.480
It was not me.
00:53:04.800 --> 00:53:05.199
Uh-huh.
00:53:06.719 --> 00:53:07.360
She knows?
00:53:07.519 --> 00:53:08.159
Who told her?
00:53:08.400 --> 00:53:12.000
I I do not know, but I have it on good intel that she knows.
00:53:14.239 --> 00:53:28.400
He he he uh picks up a glass from like one of the tables that is still set up and he taps it and he goes, Friends, if I die tonight, um, um, j and I I just mean that in terms I don't think she's gonna kill me, but in I mean in terms of she's gonna yell at me until I die.
00:53:28.559 --> 00:53:29.039
Just no.
00:53:29.360 --> 00:53:31.039
Well, don't say that after four months being killed.
00:53:31.360 --> 00:53:32.320
You can't accuse people like that.
00:53:32.800 --> 00:53:35.119
Honestly, I mean, try another idiom.
00:53:35.679 --> 00:53:39.119
Okay, well, okay, if if if something should happen to me.
00:53:39.760 --> 00:53:40.559
No, huh.
00:53:40.719 --> 00:53:42.320
No, huh, that's still probably pretty bad.
00:53:42.559 --> 00:53:42.960
Still bad.
00:53:43.119 --> 00:53:45.280
I just wanted to say if I'm sad tonight.
00:53:45.679 --> 00:53:52.320
This this day of helping you all, this has been, I mean, not in terms of the deaths, bad.
00:53:52.480 --> 00:53:55.519
In terms of the deaths, the worst pageant I've ever worked on.
00:53:55.599 --> 00:53:57.199
But you all, I believe in you all.
00:53:57.440 --> 00:53:57.679
Okay.
00:53:57.920 --> 00:53:58.800
Let's get this worked out.
00:53:58.880 --> 00:53:59.840
Let's get this worked out.
00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:00.239
Okay.
00:54:00.400 --> 00:54:01.599
Five, six, seven, eight.
00:54:01.760 --> 00:54:02.960
Um and we jump in.
00:54:03.039 --> 00:54:03.199
Yeah.
00:54:04.320 --> 00:54:05.599
I need everyone to make a performance check.
00:54:05.760 --> 00:54:06.000
Oh no.
00:54:06.239 --> 00:54:07.280
Thank God I'm rolling a dead.
00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:13.840
So the way that this rehearsal works is uh every I have a DC in mind, uh DC 15.
00:54:14.000 --> 00:54:21.199
If you beat a DC 15, you get a little bit extra time before the show to do something else investigatively.
00:54:21.360 --> 00:54:25.840
Um if you do not beat a DC 15, it takes you the whole rehearsal to learn the show.
00:54:26.079 --> 00:54:28.239
Can I can I ask how many of these checks are gonna be?
00:54:28.480 --> 00:54:29.119
Just the one.
00:54:29.360 --> 00:54:29.599
Okay.
00:54:29.920 --> 00:54:34.880
Patch got a um a 12, but he's gonna use a flash of genius to make that a 14.
00:54:35.199 --> 00:54:38.239
Um, and I think that flash of genius is just him remembering the steps.
00:54:38.480 --> 00:54:38.639
Okay.
00:54:41.360 --> 00:54:42.320
Or 12 plus 4.
00:54:42.480 --> 00:54:42.559
Okay.
00:54:44.400 --> 00:54:44.639
Okay.
00:54:44.800 --> 00:54:47.679
Um, so Patch, you you lock the fuck in.
00:54:47.760 --> 00:54:50.239
You use your artifice or magic to lock the fuck in.
00:54:50.480 --> 00:54:54.559
Yeah, I'm I'm making schematics, like in his notebook next to his tight five.
00:54:54.719 --> 00:54:57.039
It looks like a dance-dance revolution cheat guide.
00:54:57.199 --> 00:54:57.360
Yes.
00:54:57.519 --> 00:54:58.559
That's how he's thinking of it.
00:54:58.719 --> 00:55:00.239
Up, left, up, left.
00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:01.360
I got an 18.
00:55:01.519 --> 00:55:01.840
18.
00:55:01.920 --> 00:55:03.599
Rex, you're gonna have an extra few minutes.
00:55:03.840 --> 00:55:11.679
I like to think that Rex, who is not paying attention at all during the first rehearsal, uh, gets like um uh activated like a sleeper agent.
00:55:11.840 --> 00:55:12.000
Yeah.
00:55:12.239 --> 00:55:13.840
You know, and it just kicks in.
00:55:14.159 --> 00:55:18.559
You see Hugo just like at one point you're doing the combination and he just starts.
00:55:19.840 --> 00:55:20.320
That's right.
00:55:20.719 --> 00:55:21.199
Yes!
00:55:21.440 --> 00:55:22.480
I'm making you my boy.
00:55:22.639 --> 00:55:23.360
That's why you do it.
00:55:23.519 --> 00:55:24.159
That's why you do it.
00:55:24.239 --> 00:55:24.320
Yeah.
00:55:24.480 --> 00:55:26.159
To see little nothings become something.
00:55:26.559 --> 00:55:27.039
Great job.
00:55:27.360 --> 00:55:27.840
Great job.
00:55:28.719 --> 00:55:31.679
Um, Lucy and Janice, what'd you get?
00:55:31.840 --> 00:55:33.280
Uh Janice got a six.
00:55:33.440 --> 00:55:36.800
He's technically doing the steps correctly, but there's no soul behind it.
00:55:39.280 --> 00:55:42.159
Uh Lucy got a 13.
00:55:42.400 --> 00:55:42.719
13?
00:55:42.960 --> 00:55:43.199
Okay.
00:55:43.440 --> 00:55:47.599
So she is not doing the steps, and there's only soul behind it.
00:55:48.079 --> 00:55:48.639
Yes.
00:55:48.960 --> 00:55:51.440
Hugo goes, I'm gonna need a few extra minutes with you guys.
00:55:51.519 --> 00:55:57.840
And a couple of the other uh girls, he goes, You guys, I'm gonna work with you some extra while the rest of the girls go start to get ready, okay?
00:55:57.920 --> 00:55:59.840
Yes, and the boys, and the non-binary people.
00:56:00.000 --> 00:56:07.519
Because pageants, pageants in this, it's you think you think of a pageant and you wanna say, you wanna say girls, but it's not just girls.
00:56:07.679 --> 00:56:08.159
All right.
00:56:08.320 --> 00:56:11.840
Sorry, woke, not evilly, but definitely workaholically.
00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:14.800
So he lets uh Patch and Rex go.
00:56:14.880 --> 00:56:16.639
Patch and Rex, what are you doing?
00:56:16.960 --> 00:56:19.679
Uh you think you can probably do one thing.
00:56:20.159 --> 00:56:24.960
Patch wants to um use this time to work on his costume.
00:56:25.119 --> 00:56:25.920
Oh my gosh.
00:56:26.239 --> 00:56:29.199
To give him a leg up on working on his costume.
00:56:29.280 --> 00:56:29.840
Can you do that?
00:56:30.079 --> 00:56:31.840
You want to investigate the murder at all?
00:56:32.320 --> 00:56:33.599
You can do that.
00:56:34.000 --> 00:56:37.840
Patch was like, I think we should be focusing more on the competition.
00:56:38.960 --> 00:56:42.480
If you're gonna do that, I'm gonna send you in the other room for a specific reason.
00:56:42.960 --> 00:56:43.199
Do it.
00:56:43.280 --> 00:56:44.239
Patch is gonna do it.
00:56:44.400 --> 00:56:44.719
Okay.
00:56:45.039 --> 00:56:47.440
Um, it's not best thought.
00:56:47.599 --> 00:56:48.400
He's running out.
00:56:48.480 --> 00:56:51.280
As soon as he's dismissed, he's running to like his corner or whatever.
00:56:51.920 --> 00:56:55.119
What we're gonna do is uh I'm gonna go with you in the other room for a moment.
00:56:55.679 --> 00:56:57.519
Spencer, you're sending yourself to the back room?
00:56:57.679 --> 00:57:00.239
And I'm going to explain what you're gonna do.
00:57:00.559 --> 00:57:01.920
Okay, to make my costume?
00:57:02.400 --> 00:57:02.719
Okay.
00:57:02.960 --> 00:57:05.199
Wait, like oh my gosh.
00:57:05.519 --> 00:57:06.400
Oh, I also hooked myself.
00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:09.119
Chloe, you got Spencer in the back room before I did.
00:57:09.280 --> 00:57:10.559
Yeah, you don't you can't want it.
00:57:10.719 --> 00:57:11.119
You're right.
00:57:11.440 --> 00:57:12.639
Rex, what are you doing?
00:57:12.880 --> 00:57:22.079
Uh I think Rex wants to talk to Hilden and uh uh in a similar way to try to figure out uh what connection they have, maybe to Mogus.
00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:30.559
Because right now I'm thinking that maybe there's a confluence of um uh Mogus or Cruxes in this one zone.
00:57:30.960 --> 00:57:31.920
Phylactory.
00:57:32.400 --> 00:57:34.639
Brother, you just continue to amaze me.
00:57:35.360 --> 00:57:35.679
Okay.
00:57:36.000 --> 00:57:42.559
Um you uh uh Hilden is also released a little early from the rehearsal, and you see that she begins walking up the stairs.
00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:44.719
Hey Hilden, can I grab you for a second?
00:57:45.119 --> 00:57:46.880
Uh oh, yeah, uh what would you like?
00:57:47.199 --> 00:57:48.880
Do you know what phylactery means?
00:57:49.440 --> 00:58:01.199
I believe it is when a lich has put their soul into a body not a body, sorry, into an object so that if their body is destroyed, their soul will be reconstituted within the uh item.
00:58:01.599 --> 00:58:02.880
That's what Janice meant.
00:58:03.199 --> 00:58:03.519
Okay.
00:58:04.000 --> 00:58:06.320
Um really quick.
00:58:06.639 --> 00:58:10.960
You went to You were I was in I think we have something in common.
00:58:11.360 --> 00:58:15.920
Oh you were in um the the the labyrinth, right?
00:58:16.639 --> 00:58:21.280
And how do you know that I was I'm sorry, how do you know that I was in the labyrinth?
00:58:21.599 --> 00:58:23.119
I dude one of my friends told me.
00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:25.920
One of my friends, get off my back.
00:58:26.079 --> 00:58:26.800
I was in the labyrinth.
00:58:27.760 --> 00:58:29.679
Are you asking me are you ever in the labyrinth?
00:58:29.920 --> 00:58:31.039
Yeah, I got escaped.
00:58:31.599 --> 00:58:32.480
Can you keep your voice down?
00:58:32.639 --> 00:58:33.039
I don't want to.
00:58:33.360 --> 00:58:35.519
Yeah, but I am kind of proud of the fact that I escaped.
00:58:35.679 --> 00:58:36.400
How did you escape?
00:58:37.440 --> 00:58:39.920
I don't you don't they I had my mind wipe.
00:58:41.039 --> 00:58:42.480
You had mind wipe.
00:58:42.960 --> 00:58:44.960
You're so right, so you don't remember how you got out.
00:58:45.280 --> 00:58:45.599
I know.
00:58:45.760 --> 00:58:49.199
I remember being in there, but I do not remember how I got out.
00:58:50.079 --> 00:58:50.880
That's really crazy.
00:58:51.039 --> 00:58:54.719
So I we circumvented another word Janice taught me.
00:58:54.960 --> 00:58:56.079
The n the mind wipe.
00:58:56.800 --> 00:58:59.599
But do you have any connection with the god of um suffering mogus?
00:59:02.400 --> 00:59:09.840
When I was in the labyrinth, I stayed for a time at the sort of undercity they had set up there.
00:59:10.000 --> 00:59:11.760
But I don't remember any of it.
00:59:12.000 --> 00:59:13.360
No, I remember that part.
00:59:13.440 --> 00:59:16.960
I remember uh remember uh Pete Hexeth?
00:59:17.280 --> 00:59:19.440
I don't remember Pete Hexeth.
00:59:19.679 --> 00:59:22.719
I do remember a man by the name of Hextus.
00:59:23.039 --> 00:59:24.320
Hex, sorry.
00:59:24.639 --> 00:59:25.760
Helga, I'm so sorry.
00:59:25.840 --> 00:59:26.639
I'm bad with names.
00:59:26.960 --> 00:59:27.119
Yeah.
00:59:27.519 --> 00:59:28.480
Hilda, Hilda.
00:59:28.800 --> 00:59:29.760
Hilden, Hilden.
00:59:30.159 --> 00:59:31.440
Hilden big.
00:59:31.679 --> 00:59:35.519
I'm gonna remember because you look like someone who would fall down a hill into a den.
00:59:36.079 --> 00:59:38.159
You got any Mogus trinkets on you or what?
00:59:38.800 --> 00:59:39.679
Mogus trinkets.
00:59:39.920 --> 00:59:43.360
Any sort of trinkets that you took away from the labyrinth?
00:59:43.760 --> 00:59:46.559
Make a uh persuasion check.
00:59:46.960 --> 00:59:49.039
Oh no, you son of a gun!
00:59:49.199 --> 00:59:51.760
I was a 14 that became uh so it's a ten.
00:59:52.239 --> 00:59:52.400
Ten?
00:59:52.800 --> 00:59:57.440
She goes, I do I really do not like to talk about my time in the labyrinth.
00:59:57.519 --> 00:59:58.400
I was very young.
00:59:58.559 --> 01:00:05.199
I sh I got involved in a crowd that I should not have been involved in, and I got thrown in the labyrinth for what I did.
01:00:05.519 --> 01:00:08.880
That is not something that I am proud of, and I am working past it.
01:00:09.119 --> 01:00:10.559
Do you mind if I go on?
01:00:11.119 --> 01:00:14.960
I'm worried f that you are being possessed.
01:00:15.119 --> 01:00:16.400
I'm just gonna level with you, okay?
01:00:16.480 --> 01:00:19.199
I'm worried that you're being possessed by some sort of possession.
01:00:19.519 --> 01:00:27.280
You're being possessed by a possession that you have uh that you possess uh from the labyrinth.
01:00:27.440 --> 01:00:28.880
That's that's what I think is happening.
01:00:28.960 --> 01:00:30.880
I think that's what all these deaths are coming from.
01:00:31.280 --> 01:00:33.440
And I think it's gonna happen to me next.
01:00:33.760 --> 01:00:34.480
A possession?
01:00:34.800 --> 01:00:35.440
A possession?
01:00:35.679 --> 01:00:37.360
From a possession that you possess.
01:00:38.000 --> 01:00:42.800
I would very much welcome sort of the supernatural element of that.
01:00:42.880 --> 01:00:44.239
I think that would be very cool, but I'm not sure.
01:00:44.400 --> 01:00:45.519
You could do a play about it, you right?
01:00:45.760 --> 01:00:47.280
I do not think that I'm being possessed.
01:00:47.360 --> 01:00:49.039
Uh I would know if I was being possessed, yeah?
01:00:49.199 --> 01:00:50.480
Do you have you okay, last question.
01:00:50.559 --> 01:00:52.480
Okay, and then I'll let you go read or whatever.
01:00:52.800 --> 01:00:56.000
Do you have any gaps in your memory?
01:00:56.320 --> 01:00:57.679
Since you've gotten here.
01:00:58.239 --> 01:00:59.440
I went on a bender.
01:00:59.679 --> 01:01:01.920
I got here a week ago, and I went on a bender.
01:01:02.320 --> 01:01:04.559
But not nothing the last couple of days.
01:01:04.880 --> 01:01:06.559
No, I've been hard at work.
01:01:06.800 --> 01:01:09.679
When you were on your bender, did you drive drunk?
01:01:09.920 --> 01:01:13.119
What many others would consider drunk is to me nothing.
01:01:13.440 --> 01:01:13.920
Got it.
01:01:14.000 --> 01:01:16.079
Okay, so you're a full-blown alcoholic.
01:01:16.239 --> 01:01:17.280
No, no, I don't know.
01:01:17.360 --> 01:01:18.639
That's not what I'm saying.
01:01:18.880 --> 01:01:21.440
I mean it's- Don't light a match near her.
01:01:22.800 --> 01:01:23.679
Who was that?
01:01:23.840 --> 01:01:24.960
Lucy, please don't message me.
01:01:25.039 --> 01:01:26.239
You're supposed to be working on your dancing.
01:01:26.559 --> 01:01:27.679
I've just heard something really funny.
01:01:28.079 --> 01:01:29.360
I've been listening this whole time, Roger.
01:01:29.519 --> 01:01:30.159
Does a great job.
01:01:30.400 --> 01:01:31.519
It's a disease, okay?
01:01:31.599 --> 01:01:33.360
It's not something, it's not your fault.
01:01:33.519 --> 01:01:34.800
But it is your responsibility.
01:01:35.039 --> 01:01:36.159
Whoa, heavy.
01:01:36.400 --> 01:01:36.960
Uh uh.
01:01:37.599 --> 01:01:38.559
It's been a pleasure.
01:01:38.719 --> 01:01:41.599
I I just want you to know I'm here for you if you need anything.
01:01:41.840 --> 01:01:42.400
Yeah.
01:01:42.639 --> 01:01:42.960
Okay.
01:01:43.679 --> 01:01:46.400
But I want you to real think real hard about what I said about it.
01:01:46.559 --> 01:01:47.440
Yeah, I think very hard.
01:01:48.079 --> 01:01:49.599
Yes, I think very hard about it.
01:01:49.840 --> 01:01:52.239
I am I'm going to work on my monologue.
01:01:53.920 --> 01:01:54.719
What is your talent?
01:01:54.960 --> 01:01:56.239
I lift heavy things.
01:01:56.480 --> 01:01:57.920
Or like moderately heavy things.
01:01:58.480 --> 01:01:59.119
I do like that.
01:01:59.199 --> 01:02:02.480
I've I'm not going to talk bad on that, but I do wish you would respect mine more.
01:02:03.920 --> 01:02:05.199
I talk I'm an orator.
01:02:05.599 --> 01:02:06.400
Let's do it right now.
01:02:06.480 --> 01:02:08.639
Let's let's have a talk off real quick.
01:02:09.280 --> 01:02:10.400
You want to compare talents?
01:02:10.559 --> 01:02:10.719
Yeah.
01:02:11.360 --> 01:02:11.760
You talk.
01:02:12.480 --> 01:02:12.719
Okay.
01:02:12.960 --> 01:02:14.400
And face that way while you do.
01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:18.159
It's it's just that I don't want this to happen to me.
01:02:18.400 --> 01:02:18.719
Okay.
01:02:19.599 --> 01:02:22.159
I'm worried that I'm gonna cause a murder.
01:02:22.559 --> 01:02:25.360
And I don't want to lose that part of myself.
01:02:25.599 --> 01:02:27.760
I like to kill for vengeance.
01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:29.679
And not in it like a bad way.
01:02:29.760 --> 01:02:31.119
Like, I like to kill bad guys.
01:02:31.440 --> 01:02:34.000
You turn around, she has walked away.
01:02:34.320 --> 01:02:34.880
Rex!
01:02:35.039 --> 01:02:36.320
I got a fucking 21.
01:02:36.400 --> 01:02:37.519
That was it was really good.
01:02:37.760 --> 01:02:39.280
Lucy's in your head crying.
01:02:39.599 --> 01:02:40.719
Thank you, Lucy.
01:02:40.880 --> 01:02:41.920
I learned it from you.
01:02:42.159 --> 01:02:44.000
So that's uh probably the end of that.
01:02:44.079 --> 01:02:50.159
I'm gonna go get so uh Janice and Lucy, you guys finish your rehearsal.
01:02:50.400 --> 01:02:52.639
Patch and Rex, you come back together.
01:02:52.800 --> 01:02:57.199
Um, Rex, you see Patch has some like cloth, like some clothes bundled up.
01:02:57.440 --> 01:02:59.519
Patch has begun work on his costume.
01:02:59.840 --> 01:03:01.119
Hey Patch, what'd you find?
01:03:01.360 --> 01:03:02.719
What'd you find out about the murder?
01:03:02.960 --> 01:03:03.360
What?
01:03:03.840 --> 01:03:05.280
I thought we were all working on our costumes.
01:03:05.440 --> 01:03:06.079
What the fuck?
01:03:06.559 --> 01:03:07.519
That's why we're gonna wait.
01:03:07.920 --> 01:03:09.920
We don't have the we don't have the much time to make our costumes.
01:03:10.159 --> 01:03:12.719
Lucy and I were dancing our hearts out for poor Hugo.
01:03:13.039 --> 01:03:18.639
You see, people who started to come into the uh lobby, the house has now opened for the pageant.
01:03:18.719 --> 01:03:20.880
Yemer runs out and goes, We've gotta get you guys ready.
01:03:20.960 --> 01:03:21.679
We've gotta get you guys ready.
01:03:21.760 --> 01:03:22.400
Come on, come on, come on.
01:03:22.639 --> 01:03:23.519
I already started Yemma.
01:03:23.760 --> 01:03:24.719
Oh, perfect, perfect.
01:03:24.880 --> 01:03:32.239
She takes you into a dressing room backstage where you see that she has laid out uh uh a many different cloths.
01:03:32.400 --> 01:03:36.400
Uh you see also standing before you are um four mannequins.
01:03:36.719 --> 01:03:41.280
I've enchanted this uh uh uh cloth to to sew a little easier.
01:03:41.440 --> 01:03:43.440
You can just tell it what you want it to do, and it'll do it.
01:03:43.760 --> 01:03:49.199
The show is going to start relatively shortly, um, so you'll only have a few minutes to do this.
01:03:49.280 --> 01:03:51.519
But I I believe in all of you, okay?
01:03:51.920 --> 01:03:52.159
Okay.
01:03:52.559 --> 01:03:52.719
Okay.
01:03:53.280 --> 01:04:00.320
Uh Spencer will say after you guys do this, we will all vote on whose was the best, and that person will get a special boon.
01:04:00.639 --> 01:04:01.199
Ooh.
01:04:02.639 --> 01:04:06.400
So what you guys will be doing, I've prepared some construction paper.
01:04:06.639 --> 01:04:06.960
Oh no.
01:04:07.440 --> 01:04:09.679
Some scissors, some glue, and some markers.
01:04:10.000 --> 01:04:11.760
As well as an all-he made.
01:04:12.400 --> 01:04:14.719
As well as paper dolls of each of you.
01:04:15.039 --> 01:04:15.440
Yeah.
01:04:15.920 --> 01:04:20.639
You will have five like a little Maked Mags.
01:04:21.840 --> 01:04:22.559
Where's my dick?
01:04:22.800 --> 01:04:24.880
You I didn't draw dicks or vajingas.
01:04:25.039 --> 01:04:30.559
Um, you will have five minutes to make your outfit.
01:04:32.480 --> 01:04:33.280
Stop it.
01:04:33.760 --> 01:04:36.320
I was having so much fun touching her outfit.
01:04:36.639 --> 01:04:38.079
Catch this to Janice.
01:04:38.239 --> 01:04:39.199
Where's my vaginga?
01:04:40.000 --> 01:04:40.320
Vajinga.
01:04:40.719 --> 01:04:41.920
Cut this to Lucy.
01:04:42.079 --> 01:04:44.159
Oh my gosh, she's so cute!
01:04:44.480 --> 01:04:46.639
Janice looks like the guy from Off of the Rot Game Operation.
01:04:47.280 --> 01:04:48.559
She has a carrot nose.
01:04:49.119 --> 01:04:50.800
I'll I'll give you 10 minutes for this, actually.
01:04:50.960 --> 01:04:52.320
Yeah, that's what he told me in the background.
01:04:52.480 --> 01:04:53.599
Yeah, I said five on accident.
01:04:54.000 --> 01:04:54.800
Oh my gosh.
01:04:55.039 --> 01:04:56.719
It's okay, because I'm already almost done.
01:04:56.960 --> 01:05:00.880
Three, two, one, begin.
01:05:01.119 --> 01:05:04.000
I'll I'll narrate while Spencer gets Patch's shirt.
01:05:04.159 --> 01:05:08.639
No! Matt, Lucy just ripped a, or Sarah just ripped a big piece of paper out of Matt's hand.
01:05:09.760 --> 01:05:11.199
Don't rip all the paper, guys.
01:05:11.760 --> 01:05:12.880
Tara, don't rip all the paper.
01:05:12.960 --> 01:05:14.079
Why don't you take the ones that you want?
01:05:14.159 --> 01:05:15.679
Obviously, you're stronger than me.
01:05:16.000 --> 01:05:17.679
There's plenty of paper.
01:05:17.920 --> 01:05:19.840
I want something that's jazzy.
01:05:20.000 --> 01:05:21.679
No, get okay, you can have the pink one.
01:05:21.760 --> 01:05:22.159
That's fine.
01:05:22.320 --> 01:05:23.920
This is what I wanted from the beginning.
01:05:24.639 --> 01:05:25.199
Like, no.
01:05:25.599 --> 01:05:27.440
I just wanted it because you wanted it.
01:05:28.000 --> 01:05:30.079
See, I told you Lucy's kind of toxic.
01:05:30.239 --> 01:05:30.639
I lied.
01:05:31.760 --> 01:05:32.000
Sorry.
01:05:32.159 --> 01:05:32.559
Maybe you're not going to be able to do it.
01:05:32.639 --> 01:05:34.000
You're not even using the last 10.
01:05:34.159 --> 01:05:34.880
You're not even cutting anything.
01:05:35.199 --> 01:05:35.679
You're kidding me.
01:05:35.840 --> 01:05:37.440
You've been out here doing so much.
01:05:37.679 --> 01:05:39.440
What size does Lucy wear?
01:05:40.559 --> 01:05:42.719
Uh Lucy, your sending stone begins to ring.
01:05:44.960 --> 01:05:46.400
Lucy, you better get that.
01:05:46.559 --> 01:05:48.400
Um, uh, uh, hello?
01:05:48.559 --> 01:05:49.519
Oh, Lucy!
01:05:49.840 --> 01:05:50.320
Dad?
01:05:50.480 --> 01:05:51.119
Yes, it's me.
01:05:51.280 --> 01:05:51.760
Oh, hi.
01:05:52.000 --> 01:05:52.320
Hello.
01:05:52.400 --> 01:05:53.440
Uh I can't remember.
01:05:53.760 --> 01:05:54.719
You sound so chipper.
01:05:54.960 --> 01:05:55.840
You normally sound so bad.
01:05:56.480 --> 01:05:58.079
We've got good news, we've discovered something.
01:05:58.320 --> 01:05:58.639
What?
01:05:59.119 --> 01:05:59.679
I think.
01:06:00.000 --> 01:06:06.639
I think that we've uh sorry, let me just uh wait we believe we You can call me back, that's fine.
01:06:06.800 --> 01:06:07.760
No, no, no, no, no.
01:06:07.840 --> 01:06:09.760
This is very, very impressing and important.
01:06:10.000 --> 01:06:10.320
Why?
01:06:10.480 --> 01:06:11.199
What are you up to?
01:06:11.440 --> 01:06:12.480
Um, sewing.
01:06:12.800 --> 01:06:13.840
Oh really, sewing?
01:06:14.000 --> 01:06:14.239

Oh, that's great.
01:06:17.760 --> 01:06:18.639
Have you ever competed before?
01:06:19.280 --> 01:06:20.159
There's only two pairs of scissors.
01:06:20.400 --> 01:06:21.360
No, Shane has scissors.
01:06:21.840 --> 01:06:23.360
Shane, Shane, went and grab scissors!
01:06:23.599 --> 01:06:24.719
Shane, no, put them back.
01:06:25.039 --> 01:06:28.639
Part of the game is balancing out who has the scissors at any given time.
01:06:28.960 --> 01:06:30.480
But the whole thing is cutting.
01:06:30.800 --> 01:06:31.119
Yes.
01:06:31.840 --> 01:06:34.159
Can I please have some scissors whenever anyone's done with them?
01:06:34.559 --> 01:06:37.039
Can I please have some scissors when any anyone's done with them?
01:06:37.199 --> 01:06:38.239

But Yeah, so Patch, what did you find out?

No, because I know we didn't have that much time, so I wanted to get started.
01:07:18.480 --> 01:07:22.960
And I and the Yemma told us the only way to find out the br about the murder is to win, and I want to win.
01:07:23.360 --> 01:07:24.480
Stop your belly again.
01:07:24.559 --> 01:07:25.840
Oh my gosh, thank you, Rex.
01:07:26.079 --> 01:07:26.960
Thanks, Rex.
01:07:27.360 --> 01:07:27.920
Thanks, buddy.
01:07:28.159 --> 01:07:28.719
I need glue.
01:07:29.039 --> 01:07:31.920
Glue me! Did you think we were gonna take this so seriously, Spencer?
01:07:32.239 --> 01:07:32.400
Yeah.
01:07:32.639 --> 01:07:32.800
Okay.
01:07:33.519 --> 01:07:37.119
The thing is, it takes so long to cut, and it takes so little time to glue.
01:07:38.480 --> 01:07:39.599
Okay, here's scissors, here's scissors.
01:07:42.000 --> 01:07:43.760
Glue stick, glue stick, gloomy, gloomy, gloomy.
01:07:44.159 --> 01:07:44.960
This is ugly.
01:07:46.800 --> 01:07:49.360
You can't glue and cut at the same time, okay?
01:07:51.840 --> 01:07:52.559
That's really cute.
01:07:52.800 --> 01:07:55.679
I think I might have accidentally really cleavage.
01:07:55.760 --> 01:07:58.159
So just no one make it weird, okay?
01:07:58.960 --> 01:08:00.559
I recognize a lot of cleavage too.
01:08:00.880 --> 01:08:04.079
Janice, you're probably already good at this because your parents are both craftspeople.
01:08:04.559 --> 01:08:06.880
One would think, but I got all thumbs.
01:08:07.199 --> 01:08:08.800
That's why your punches are so hard.
01:08:09.199 --> 01:08:11.920
Can I draw on Lucy, but just to give her cleavage?
01:08:12.239 --> 01:08:13.760
Yeah, you can give her cleavage if you want.
01:08:14.239 --> 01:08:16.239
I I was not going to, but you are welcome to.
01:08:16.560 --> 01:08:19.279
I keep making his boots too small for his big stupid hoof.
01:08:22.159 --> 01:08:22.399
Thank you.
01:08:22.640 --> 01:08:23.359
Okay, I'm done.
01:08:23.840 --> 01:08:24.319
I'm done.
01:08:24.479 --> 01:08:25.439
I think I'm done too.
01:08:25.840 --> 01:08:28.800
Five, four, three, two, three.
01:08:28.960 --> 01:08:29.760
It's this way fingers.
01:08:30.000 --> 01:08:30.239

01:08:30.479 --> 01:08:33.279
Hugo bursts in the door and goes, Alright, guys, we're starting soon.
01:08:33.439 --> 01:08:34.000
Are you guys ready?
01:08:34.479 --> 01:08:35.119
Yes! Yeah.
01:08:35.359 --> 01:08:38.000
Alright, guys, come back, come on back, come on back, line up, line up.
01:08:39.199 --> 01:08:46.079
Um, see it brings you back as as the orchestra begins to swell with the opening chords of the Resplendance Royale.
01:08:46.399 --> 01:08:46.960
Rex.
01:08:47.119 --> 01:08:50.560
From behind you, uh, Hugo starts pushing on your back to get you out on stage.
01:08:51.199 --> 01:08:54.720
Life can be so drab and so gloomy.
01:08:54.960 --> 01:08:58.079
An excuse should be found for a new me.
01:08:58.560 --> 01:09:03.920
You pack up your gowns and journey on down to the resplendent royale.
01:09:04.159 --> 01:09:05.840
Please describe what Rex is wearing.
01:09:12.399 --> 01:09:17.039
Um with uh some yellow Jordan ones.
01:09:17.840 --> 01:09:31.840
Um thought he would lean into the the dress, uh, you know, kind of vibe that he goes with, and also the fact that uh Mogus, he's trying to do a whistle, a dog whistle till any Mogus heads out there with the bullhorns.
01:09:32.479 --> 01:09:32.800
Okay.
01:09:33.039 --> 01:09:33.760
So, yeah.
01:09:33.920 --> 01:09:35.439
It's quite incredible.
01:09:35.680 --> 01:09:36.399
Pretty good, right?
01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:37.039
So good.
01:09:37.279 --> 01:09:39.199
Next in the order is Patch.
01:09:39.920 --> 01:09:46.720
Girls and boys dressing with glass at the merriot that's made a class.
01:09:47.359 --> 01:09:50.079
Baseline on the tea.
01:09:50.399 --> 01:09:55.119
Beauty beyond belief at the resplendents royal.
01:09:55.680 --> 01:09:58.720
Um, Patch, you look out, you see a huge audience.
01:09:59.039 --> 01:10:05.920
Patch is sweating, partially because he's nervous, and partially because his outfit is made entirely out of leather.
01:10:06.880 --> 01:10:11.119
Patch has been thinking a lot about beauty and what that means to him.
01:10:11.279 --> 01:10:20.239
So Patch decided to inspire his outfit from one of his favorite favorite, famous, attractive video game characters, uh, Sordanetta.
01:10:20.800 --> 01:10:27.680
Um and so Patch is wearing leather pants, skin tight pants, that he's sucking all his fur in.
01:10:27.840 --> 01:10:33.600
Um, he has a little red suggestion of a shirt that like you see all the way up his midriff.
01:10:33.760 --> 01:10:36.479
Like, if he had boobs, it would just be covering the boobs.
01:10:36.640 --> 01:10:50.000
And then he has a little cold shoulder, off-the-shoulder leather shawl, and he's wearing go-go boots that are attached attached to his hooves, so they make him like literally a foot taller.
01:10:50.079 --> 01:10:52.720
He's wearing a foot foot tall platform.
01:10:53.600 --> 01:10:54.800
Kind of looks like a penguin chicken.
01:10:55.039 --> 01:10:55.840
Looks like a chicken.
01:10:56.159 --> 01:10:57.279
And that's what passion's worth.
01:10:57.439 --> 01:10:57.840
I love it.
01:10:58.159 --> 01:11:00.960
Yes, these visions and more just outside of your door.
01:11:01.119 --> 01:11:04.319
There is royal Lucy.
01:11:04.800 --> 01:11:08.079
So you stride and you glide and you strive.
01:11:09.680 --> 01:11:12.079
Beauty's the reason you're alive.
01:11:13.520 --> 01:11:16.880
It's worth this and so much more.
01:11:17.600 --> 01:11:20.640
Ugh, please, Verandah Pastor.
01:11:21.039 --> 01:11:26.239
A gasp goes up at the resplendent royale.
01:11:27.039 --> 01:11:30.399
Um, and Lucy is wearing a blue dress.
01:11:30.720 --> 01:11:32.079
Jesus Christ.
01:11:32.800 --> 01:11:35.359
Um she has like a blue underdress.
01:11:35.760 --> 01:11:43.119
You look like Mary from fucking bonnet?
01:11:43.840 --> 01:11:50.079
Yeah, you look like straight out of Mary from Pride and Prejudice, the one who gets married away secretly.
01:11:50.560 --> 01:11:51.199
Giant hits.
01:11:51.439 --> 01:11:52.960
Sarah gave her all giant tits.
01:11:53.119 --> 01:11:57.279
Sarah asked if she could give herself boobs and gave her huge ones.
01:11:57.520 --> 01:12:00.880
Well, she moged uh that's what it was.
01:12:02.800 --> 01:12:03.520
What is going on there?
01:12:03.760 --> 01:12:06.479
So it's like a deep blue underdress, a light blue overcoat.
01:12:06.640 --> 01:12:20.560
She has a um a light blue gossamer uh like uh scarf tied around her neck that's blowing in the wind, and she's wearing these um beautiful dark blue um what are those called?
01:12:20.720 --> 01:12:22.000
Armwormers kind of.
01:12:22.079 --> 01:12:22.479
Yeah, yeah.
01:12:22.720 --> 01:12:24.000
Um handless gloves.
01:12:24.079 --> 01:12:24.399

Sleeves that don't go all the way up, um, reverse short sleeves, however you want to call them.
01:12:29.680 --> 01:12:37.600
And then on her head, she has a golden um halo crown and enormous breasts.
01:12:37.840 --> 01:12:38.000
Great.
01:12:38.159 --> 01:12:38.640
That are pushed.
01:12:39.039 --> 01:12:40.960
I can't think anyone's looking at the rest of the outfit.
01:12:41.359 --> 01:12:43.920
Which is a shame because people oh, and also she has bare feet.
01:12:44.239 --> 01:12:45.840
Are these are these minor illusions?
01:12:46.000 --> 01:12:47.439

Also kind of giving Victor Victoria.
01:13:24.880 --> 01:13:33.920
On the right side, he's got like a black jumpsuit that's like a fancy suit, like uh like a black tie tuxedo, and on the left side it's like a flowy white dress, basically.
01:13:34.319 --> 01:13:48.640
Um, but it's one jumpsuit piece um that he's wearing, and uh he doesn't have any accessories or anything because he spent his whole time sewing two complete outfits, cutting them in half, and then sewing them together.

Oh, there's a confused applause from the audience.
01:17:23.600 --> 01:17:29.680
Because uh, because we started to cure the pl we cured the plague in Plutopolis, but there's some sequelae from that that we also have to cure.
01:17:29.920 --> 01:17:31.039

Uh, Janice, why don't you go ahead and roll in the crate of fate for me?

Can I roll anything else?
01:17:50.079 --> 01:17:56.399
If you want to persuade me to roll medicine, I would allow medicine since your cause is medicine related.
01:17:56.640 --> 01:17:56.960
Okay.
01:17:57.439 --> 01:17:57.680

Um I'm from Sirens Perch, and tonight I am competing for oh, um, well, I think for my friend Rex, um, because he's turning into a tree, but actually it hasn't been that bad.
01:18:26.159 --> 01:18:29.920
And he's actually been more enjoyable as a friend as a tree.
01:18:30.560 --> 01:18:34.079
Um so I'm not sure.
01:18:34.239 --> 01:18:39.119
Um I also, I mean, we do want to save Genesis Town, so that makes sense.
01:18:39.279 --> 01:18:42.159
And Patch, I'm not really sure what Patch wants.
01:18:42.560 --> 01:18:44.640
A date, but not out loud.
01:18:44.880 --> 01:18:50.319
Um and then things have been going pretty well with my dad, actually.
01:18:50.479 --> 01:18:54.000
So not um, but my mom, I would like to talk to her more.
01:18:54.079 --> 01:19:00.319
So maybe if I had the star, I would use it to visit my mom um in satirics.
01:19:00.479 --> 01:19:01.680
Okay, that's me.
01:19:03.520 --> 01:19:05.600
Another another smattering of applause.
01:19:05.680 --> 01:19:06.800
Um, you can roll for that.
01:19:06.880 --> 01:19:09.439
I'll say either performance or religion.
01:19:09.680 --> 01:19:10.000
Uh-huh.
01:19:10.560 --> 01:19:12.079
Next up is Rex.
01:19:13.199 --> 01:19:14.800
My name is Rex.
01:19:15.199 --> 01:19:29.119
I'm from Afaris, and tonight I'm competing um for myself uh because I'm turning I'm I'm I'm xylogenius, and you may think that that means I'm turning into a genius.
01:19:29.279 --> 01:19:30.960
It's not, I'm turning into a tree.
01:19:31.520 --> 01:19:36.079
So I would like, and my friend um my friend Janice taught me that word.
01:19:36.239 --> 01:19:39.920
Uh, and I don't want to be a tree, of course.
01:19:40.000 --> 01:19:45.920
So I would like my bodily purity to um return me back to my my um my normal form.
01:19:46.079 --> 01:19:46.880
Thank you.
01:19:47.279 --> 01:19:50.560
A lot of people are competing for the god not to be a tree.
01:19:51.920 --> 01:19:53.279
Um you exit.
01:19:53.439 --> 01:19:57.520

01:19:57.760 --> 01:19:58.560
Oh yes, roll.
01:19:58.800 --> 01:20:02.000
You can roll either nature or uh performance.
01:20:02.319 --> 01:20:02.880
Because he's a tree.
01:20:03.279 --> 01:20:03.840
Because he's a tree.
01:20:04.319 --> 01:20:05.680
Next is Patch.
01:20:06.319 --> 01:20:06.640
Hi.
01:20:07.199 --> 01:20:11.520
Uh my name is Patchonides Patch Onides.
01:20:12.159 --> 01:20:14.239

01:20:14.399 --> 01:20:23.279
And tonight I'm competing uh for um I I'm uh I'm gonna go with uh I'm competing f uh for my myself.

I'm competing for myself and also um to find myself and also world peace.
01:20:29.600 --> 01:20:31.920
Alright, I'll say that is insight or performance.
01:20:32.159 --> 01:20:33.840
I knew it was gonna be insight and I don't have it inside.
01:20:34.000 --> 01:20:35.359
I didn't world for world peace.
01:20:35.680 --> 01:20:36.960
Patch, you fucking traitor.
01:20:37.359 --> 01:20:38.880
I Patch is really into this.
01:20:39.039 --> 01:20:39.279
I know.
01:20:39.680 --> 01:20:41.119
Do you think that is in it to win it?
01:20:41.680 --> 01:20:44.079
He's looking for external validation of an internal question.
01:20:44.319 --> 01:20:46.399
Well he's kind of like he had a you got a wish.
01:20:46.640 --> 01:20:46.800
Right.
01:20:47.039 --> 01:20:47.600
You can use that.
01:20:48.479 --> 01:20:49.439
It's kind of like it's so important.
01:20:50.880 --> 01:20:51.840
That was nerve-wracking.
01:20:51.920 --> 01:20:52.560
I thought I was gonna cry.
01:20:52.800 --> 01:20:53.279
You did great.
01:20:54.079 --> 01:20:55.439
I didn't say my name out there.
01:20:56.159 --> 01:20:59.760
Oh, I'm s was I supposed I s the the note said to say my name.
01:21:00.239 --> 01:21:02.079
Well, I said all your names, so you did.
01:21:02.239 --> 01:21:02.720
That's true.
01:21:02.800 --> 01:21:03.279
Never mind.
01:21:03.680 --> 01:21:03.920
Whatever.
01:21:04.319 --> 01:21:19.520
Next to us is Evelyn who goes out and goes, Hi, my name is Evelyn Trunch, and I am from Pantares, and I am competing so that hopefully uh uh well I I I would like it so that my uncle's back don't hurt as much.
01:21:19.920 --> 01:21:26.319
Um he's he's really he's got an old war wound, and so I uh I'm competing for him tonight and world peace.
01:21:26.560 --> 01:21:27.359
Thank you.
01:21:27.760 --> 01:21:28.880
And she walks off.
01:21:29.359 --> 01:21:30.399
She's a murderer.
01:21:30.880 --> 01:21:32.960
The next blow herself up?
01:21:33.279 --> 01:21:34.720
Chronic pain's a serious condition, guys.
01:21:35.279 --> 01:21:42.880
The you see, uh people keep coming out, they they go through the rest of the contestants who are unnamed and thus less important, and then Basil St.
01:21:43.039 --> 01:21:47.279
Basilton goes, Alright, without further ado, can we get all the contestants back out here?
01:21:47.439 --> 01:21:48.239
Oh, sure.
01:21:48.640 --> 01:21:50.079
Fourth, back, and fourth, back, and fourth.
01:21:50.319 --> 01:21:51.359
I just I gotta pee.
01:21:51.600 --> 01:21:54.159
Well, you're you can pee in a minute, lady.
01:21:55.199 --> 01:21:58.800
We're gonna be announcing, we're gonna be cutting down to our top ten contestants.
01:21:58.880 --> 01:22:00.239
Oh! How does that sound to everyone?
01:22:00.399 --> 01:22:00.640
How many?
01:22:01.119 --> 01:22:02.079
How many contestants are there?
01:22:02.239 --> 01:22:03.760
This probably like 30.
01:22:04.000 --> 01:22:04.399
Oh, okay.
01:22:04.560 --> 01:22:05.199
Okay, that's fine.
01:22:05.439 --> 01:22:05.840
Oh boy.
01:22:06.319 --> 01:22:09.279
Not even like, that's not even like top 60%.
01:22:09.600 --> 01:22:11.920
Like, we're not even B rank if we get top ten.
01:22:12.159 --> 01:22:15.920
Number 10! I don't know that's barely making the cut is patchonities or needy.
01:22:17.439 --> 01:22:17.840
Easy money.
01:22:18.079 --> 01:22:18.960
Good job, Patch, I guess.
01:22:19.199 --> 01:22:19.680
Patch you made it.
01:22:19.760 --> 01:22:21.439
Patch throws abduces to the audience.
01:22:21.760 --> 01:22:24.560
Now we're getting into the people who did pretty good.
01:22:25.359 --> 01:22:27.439
Adonis Kenig Rex.
01:22:27.680 --> 01:22:28.800
Oh right Yeah, the rex.
01:22:29.520 --> 01:22:30.319
What number am I?
01:22:31.359 --> 01:22:31.760
What?
01:22:32.000 --> 01:22:32.880
What number am I?
01:22:33.039 --> 01:22:33.680
Uh uh.
01:22:34.960 --> 01:22:36.159
We don't say that, we just kind of.
01:22:36.479 --> 01:22:37.279
You said that I was tenth.
01:22:37.600 --> 01:22:39.359
You do say that Ash was tenth.
01:22:39.760 --> 01:22:42.239
We'll just give up on the numbers thing, huh?
01:22:43.039 --> 01:22:45.199
Next up is Lucinae, not.
01:22:45.520 --> 01:22:46.079
Oh, I made it!
01:22:47.119 --> 01:22:49.279
But is, but but is not, but is.
01:22:49.760 --> 01:22:51.600
But isn't it?
01:22:52.159 --> 01:22:52.960
I said Janice?
01:22:53.119 --> 01:22:53.279
No.
01:22:53.359 --> 01:22:53.439
No.
01:22:53.840 --> 01:22:54.960
Janice Apalon!
01:22:55.199 --> 01:22:56.079
Woo! Yay!
01:22:56.319 --> 01:22:56.960
Hey, that's me.
01:22:57.119 --> 01:22:57.840
I made it.
01:22:58.159 --> 01:23:00.239
Guys, look, we're all in the same place.
01:23:00.479 --> 01:23:02.000
We've got Hildenberg.
01:23:02.159 --> 01:23:03.199
Oh yeah, go Hilden.
01:23:03.840 --> 01:23:04.239
Hilden.
01:23:05.039 --> 01:23:07.600
Of course, who could forget lovely young Evelyn Tranch?
01:23:08.000 --> 01:23:08.239
Evelyn.
01:23:08.479 --> 01:23:09.359
Oh, good Evelyn, man.
01:23:10.399 --> 01:23:14.000
And of course, uh everyone's favorite to win, Ryan De Janeiro.
01:23:14.239 --> 01:23:15.279
Oh, he's the favorite.
01:23:15.680 --> 01:23:16.720
Hoosebag.
01:23:16.880 --> 01:23:19.840
With that, we will get into our talent portion.
01:23:20.079 --> 01:23:22.479
Unfortunately, Peppy has been cut.
01:23:23.760 --> 01:23:24.239
Peppy.
01:23:25.199 --> 01:23:27.439
No! Peppy goes so rude to him.
01:23:28.720 --> 01:23:31.439
My talent was going to be playing a basketball.
01:23:31.600 --> 01:23:32.479
I wanted to see that song.
01:23:32.880 --> 01:23:33.840
Playing a basketball planet.
01:23:34.000 --> 01:23:34.319
My talent.
01:23:35.199 --> 01:23:37.039
Playing a dra playing a prank on a basketball?
01:23:37.279 --> 01:23:39.039
Or playing a basketball like an instrument.
01:23:40.159 --> 01:23:41.920
Dunking like Kobe O'Brien.
01:23:42.159 --> 01:23:42.319
Whoa.
01:23:42.640 --> 01:23:43.199
Kobe O'Brien.
01:23:43.279 --> 01:23:43.760
Kobe O'Brien.
01:23:43.920 --> 01:23:44.399
Kobe O'Brien.
01:23:44.640 --> 01:23:45.279
Kobe O'Brien.
01:23:45.760 --> 01:23:46.239
She's great.
01:23:46.560 --> 01:23:46.720
She is.
01:23:47.119 --> 01:23:48.800
Peppy, can we hit the courts after this?
01:23:49.279 --> 01:23:51.520
NBA, which is default women.
01:23:51.760 --> 01:23:54.560
It's called the M NBA when it's boys.
01:23:56.159 --> 01:23:58.239
I feel like we're really trying really hard with this one.
01:23:58.960 --> 01:24:01.520
I don't know why, but default women doesn't sound good.
01:24:02.560 --> 01:24:03.680
I think it's a mixed league.
01:24:03.840 --> 01:24:05.439
I think it's probably a skill based.
01:24:05.760 --> 01:24:07.119
Yeah, much like the Ronian Games.
01:24:07.279 --> 01:24:08.159
Yes, it is.
01:24:08.479 --> 01:24:09.600
Ah shit.
01:24:10.479 --> 01:24:11.279
It's okay, Peppy.
01:24:11.600 --> 01:24:14.319
I'm going to go backstage and get a little drunk.
01:24:14.560 --> 01:24:15.039
Don't die.
01:24:15.199 --> 01:24:16.560
Not too don't forget your kids.
01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:18.239
That guy's got problems, right?
01:24:18.800 --> 01:24:23.520
He hobbles backstage and gets on a big stool and pulls out a liquor bottle.
01:24:23.680 --> 01:24:24.239
Oh, yeah, he does.
01:24:25.520 --> 01:24:25.920
Poor guy.
01:24:26.159 --> 01:24:30.479
It's time for round two, the talent portion! Wow.
01:24:30.880 --> 01:24:34.960
You all are ushered backstage as the talent portion begins.
01:24:35.359 --> 01:24:37.359
Um, everyone roll initiative.
01:24:38.000 --> 01:24:41.039
I forgot to think about this.
01:24:41.760 --> 01:24:42.800
Rex got a 14.
01:24:43.119 --> 01:24:43.439
14?
01:24:43.760 --> 01:24:44.079
Great.
01:24:44.319 --> 01:24:45.119
I got a 16.
01:24:45.279 --> 01:24:45.600
16?
01:24:45.760 --> 01:24:45.840
Okay.
01:24:46.079 --> 01:24:47.039
Patch got an eight.
01:24:47.279 --> 01:24:48.479
James got a 19.
01:24:48.800 --> 01:24:49.439
Thank God.
01:24:49.840 --> 01:24:55.199
As you all step back and you prepare to enter for your talents, there's a brief moment where you all are together.
01:24:55.279 --> 01:24:56.000
You're all together.
01:24:56.239 --> 01:24:57.840
Who do you think had the best costume?
01:24:58.159 --> 01:24:59.600
Oh you gotta vote.
01:24:59.840 --> 01:25:00.399
We gotta vote.
01:25:00.479 --> 01:25:02.640
Um, close your eyes.
01:25:02.960 --> 01:25:03.359
Oh no.
01:25:03.520 --> 01:25:03.680
Okay.
01:25:03.840 --> 01:25:04.319
Oh my gosh.
01:25:04.479 --> 01:25:05.279
We can't vote for ourselves.
01:25:05.359 --> 01:25:05.840
Can we vote for a sort of thing?
01:25:06.000 --> 01:25:06.880
You cannot vote for yourselves.
01:25:07.039 --> 01:25:07.199
Okay.
01:25:07.439 --> 01:25:10.880
Point to who you think had the best costume in three, two, one, point.
01:25:11.119 --> 01:25:12.079
Open them eyes.
01:25:12.319 --> 01:25:14.000
We gotta tie vote.
01:25:15.600 --> 01:25:17.760
Between Patch and Janice.
01:25:18.159 --> 01:25:21.279
First of all, dirty to make us open our eyes after a blind vote.
01:25:22.079 --> 01:25:24.239
So absolutely dirty.
01:25:24.560 --> 01:25:25.760
I'll let you guys decide.
01:25:26.079 --> 01:25:28.800
If our eyes were open, people would have voted for Lucy just saying.
01:25:31.520 --> 01:25:38.800
Either one of you can get a plus two to charisma, or both of you can get a plus one to charisma.
01:25:39.119 --> 01:25:42.000
I don't have good charisma, but I have terrible charisma.
01:25:42.319 --> 01:25:43.039
You too.
01:25:43.279 --> 01:25:46.560
Um, well, I will like to make my case.
01:25:46.960 --> 01:25:50.640
My um talent is speaking at people.
01:25:50.880 --> 01:25:55.199
So uh I just think any extra good I could have in that department would help.
01:25:55.279 --> 01:25:56.479
I'm fine with a one-in-one.
01:25:56.640 --> 01:26:00.319
I would appreciate the two if um you could find it in your heart.
01:26:00.800 --> 01:26:02.960
Patch, those boots are made for walking.
01:26:03.520 --> 01:26:05.359
And that's just what they'll do.
01:26:06.159 --> 01:26:06.720
Really?
01:26:07.199 --> 01:26:07.680
That's right.
01:26:07.920 --> 01:26:09.439
Your your suit's so cool, man.
01:26:09.680 --> 01:26:10.720
I like your pants.
01:26:10.960 --> 01:26:13.279
Patch goes, I think Patchco's a train of sock.
01:26:14.640 --> 01:26:15.520
Patch, if you suck at the talking.
01:26:15.680 --> 01:26:16.399
And they're the same height now.
01:26:16.560 --> 01:26:18.079
They're the same height as Patch's boots.
01:26:18.399 --> 01:26:21.680
Patch, if you suck at talking, why did you choose out of your talent?
01:26:22.159 --> 01:26:26.159
Because everyone kept saying that I should do stand-up, and I don't know, I just literally no one said that.
01:26:26.399 --> 01:26:27.119
Yes, yes.
01:26:27.199 --> 01:26:29.520
Uh uh uh Rex has said it before multiple times.
01:26:29.600 --> 01:26:33.199
I've had I said stand up as in get off the couch.
01:26:33.600 --> 01:26:37.520
There's applause as uh uh Hey, you'll do great, we believe in you.
01:26:38.479 --> 01:26:41.199
Applause uh Harold's Peppy's entrance to the stage.
01:26:41.279 --> 01:26:44.239
He's got a basketball, uh, his talent, his basketball tricks.
01:26:44.479 --> 01:26:44.960
Love it.
01:26:45.520 --> 01:26:46.079
That's actually sick.
01:26:46.479 --> 01:26:48.880
And it's more impressive because he's short and the ball is bigger.
01:26:49.119 --> 01:26:49.760
He's a point guard.
01:26:50.399 --> 01:26:53.199
Um uh Patch, you get a permanent plus two to charisma.
01:26:53.439 --> 01:26:54.079
Permanent?
01:26:54.479 --> 01:26:55.119
Permanent.
01:26:55.359 --> 01:26:55.600
Whoa.
01:26:58.960 --> 01:27:00.319
To my charisma?
01:27:00.560 --> 01:27:00.800
Yes.
01:27:01.039 --> 01:27:02.800
My charisma was plus zero.
01:27:03.039 --> 01:27:08.159
Um, you see, uh uh Peppy comes backstage after having completed his talent.
01:27:08.319 --> 01:27:12.479
Next up is Um Ryan De Janeiro.
01:27:12.720 --> 01:27:14.720
Uh Ryan De Janeiro steps out.
01:27:14.960 --> 01:27:16.239
I hope you change that.
01:27:16.399 --> 01:27:18.079
That uh feeling.
01:27:18.319 --> 01:27:20.319
Hey, eat my shorts, bitch.
01:27:20.560 --> 01:27:21.920
Okay, just saying if you don't know.
01:27:22.079 --> 01:27:24.640
Sorry, that language was a little sexistly loaded.
01:27:24.800 --> 01:27:27.920
After a few minutes, applause, he comes back out.
01:27:28.159 --> 01:27:31.039
Next up is Hilden, who uh steps out.
01:27:31.119 --> 01:27:32.720
You hear the beginning of her monologue.
01:27:33.199 --> 01:27:36.000
To be or not to be, that is the question.
01:27:36.239 --> 01:27:46.239
Whether it is nobler, uh to in the force to bear the blasters and sabres of outrageous force, or by opposing, take warp drive against them.
01:27:47.279 --> 01:27:51.039
Um she steps back to riotous applause, can I just say?
01:27:51.439 --> 01:27:53.600
Now it's purely for Sarah.
01:27:54.560 --> 01:27:56.000
It is yourself insert.
01:27:56.239 --> 01:27:57.840
It is! What's the force?
01:27:58.159 --> 01:27:59.920
Next is uh Evelyn Ellen.
01:28:00.079 --> 01:28:01.199
Everybody make a perception check.
01:28:02.000 --> 01:28:04.079
You see she's walking on in her tap shoes.
01:28:04.319 --> 01:28:04.560
Uh oh.
01:28:04.880 --> 01:28:07.920
Oh no, we forgot to check to see if she was booby-trapped.
01:28:08.239 --> 01:28:08.399
Patch.
01:28:09.439 --> 01:28:09.760
18.
01:28:10.079 --> 01:28:10.319
15.
01:28:10.720 --> 01:28:12.800
I think I got a uh a 13.
01:28:13.039 --> 01:28:13.439
13?
01:28:13.760 --> 01:28:14.079
Okay.
01:28:14.319 --> 01:28:16.159
Um, Pat with your 18.
01:28:16.640 --> 01:28:20.720
As she gets to center stage, she begins tapping.
01:28:21.039 --> 01:28:21.520
Tap.
01:28:21.920 --> 01:28:22.319
Tap.
01:28:22.800 --> 01:28:23.199
Tap.
01:28:23.760 --> 01:28:24.159
Tap.
01:28:24.640 --> 01:28:25.039
Tap.
01:28:25.359 --> 01:28:25.760
Tap.
01:28:27.439 --> 01:28:29.199
You see a red light blinking on her heel.
01:28:30.159 --> 01:28:30.720
The bump.
01:28:30.960 --> 01:28:31.199
Oh no.
01:28:31.359 --> 01:28:31.600
The bump.
01:28:32.319 --> 01:28:32.720
Shut up.
01:28:35.279 --> 01:28:35.680
Tackle it.
01:28:36.239 --> 01:28:37.520
Patch comes out and tackles her.
01:28:37.600 --> 01:28:38.720
Okay, make an attack roll.
01:28:39.439 --> 01:28:42.640
Impacho's bomb! Whoa! That's so rude.
01:28:42.720 --> 01:28:44.800
You're wishing a fellow contestant.
01:28:46.079 --> 01:28:47.199
Unarmed attack.
01:28:47.520 --> 01:28:48.960
Um, wait, yes, yes.
01:28:49.119 --> 01:28:50.239
You can use your ramp.
01:28:50.560 --> 01:28:51.359
Ooh, I got a natural 20.
01:28:51.600 --> 01:28:52.079
Natural 20.
01:28:52.239 --> 01:28:54.319
You're tackle her to the ground.
01:28:54.399 --> 01:28:55.680
You wrestle the shoe off.
01:28:55.760 --> 01:28:56.000
Ow!
01:28:56.159 --> 01:28:56.319
Ow!
01:28:56.560 --> 01:28:57.279
Patch, what are you doing?
01:28:57.520 --> 01:29:00.000
It's a bomb! It's a bomb! It's a bomb! What are you talking about?
01:29:00.479 --> 01:29:02.319
It's blinking! Everyone look at it! Your hand is blinking!
01:29:02.560 --> 01:29:03.199
You get it in your hand.
01:29:03.279 --> 01:29:03.600
What do you do?
01:29:03.920 --> 01:29:04.560
You tinker her.
01:29:05.199 --> 01:29:06.399
Can I do a quick tinker check?
01:29:06.560 --> 01:29:06.640
Yeah.
01:29:07.119 --> 01:29:08.159
Arcana's mantle.
01:29:08.479 --> 01:29:09.840
Uh, yeah, make a sleight of hand check.
01:29:09.920 --> 01:29:10.640
A sleight of hand?
01:29:11.119 --> 01:29:12.319
I got an 18.
01:29:12.640 --> 01:29:13.119
18?
01:29:13.279 --> 01:29:17.199
You pop it open and you see that there is visibly wiring.
01:29:17.439 --> 01:29:22.000
There is a little screen that is counting down, and you see that there's a pressure meter.
01:29:22.159 --> 01:29:28.640
So either the screen at once the time ends, the bomb will go off, or if she tapped hard enough.
01:29:28.880 --> 01:29:29.760
What's the time at?
01:29:29.920 --> 01:29:31.760
Um, the time is at 10 seconds.
01:29:32.000 --> 01:29:35.359
I run outside and throw it into the air.
01:29:35.600 --> 01:29:39.199
Okay, you make an athletics check to see how far you get.
01:29:39.359 --> 01:29:40.399
Not in the boots.
01:29:40.720 --> 01:29:43.279
Oh, this is a disadvantage.
01:29:43.439 --> 01:29:44.479
Thank you, Lucy.
01:29:44.720 --> 01:29:45.119
Thank you.
01:29:45.359 --> 01:29:47.840
To get outside, I will say will be a DC 15.
01:29:47.920 --> 01:29:52.319
If you do not get a DC 15, um, there's a chance it could do some incendiary damage.
01:29:52.560 --> 01:29:53.600
Or an 11.
01:29:53.920 --> 01:29:54.319
11?
01:29:54.479 --> 01:29:54.800
Okay.
01:29:55.279 --> 01:29:58.079
Um, I need you to make a dexterity saving throw.
01:29:58.239 --> 01:30:02.319
Uh I want to use um no, I want to use one of my things of fate.
01:30:02.399 --> 01:30:03.520
You can roll one more time.
01:30:03.760 --> 01:30:04.159
Again?
01:30:04.319 --> 01:30:04.960
Yeah.
01:30:05.600 --> 01:30:05.840
No.
01:30:06.000 --> 01:30:06.159
Nope.
01:30:06.640 --> 01:30:07.359
I got an 11 again.
01:30:09.600 --> 01:30:10.159
They don't have to.
01:30:10.960 --> 01:30:11.920
Dexterity saving throw.
01:30:12.239 --> 01:30:13.199
Dexterity saving throw.
01:30:13.439 --> 01:30:20.399
What you're rolling for is not only the damage you will save yourself from, but the damage you will save other contestants in your surroundings from.
01:30:20.960 --> 01:30:22.479
Patch got a natural one.
01:30:24.800 --> 01:30:26.079
You run backstage.
01:30:26.319 --> 01:30:26.640
You're right.
01:30:27.600 --> 01:30:31.439
You run towards the door where you see there is a gathering of contestants.
01:30:31.600 --> 01:30:32.000
Oh no.
01:30:32.159 --> 01:30:32.880
Can I yell?
01:30:33.119 --> 01:30:35.119
Get out of the way! There's a bug! What?
01:30:35.359 --> 01:30:36.319
I'm gonna explode!
01:30:36.960 --> 01:30:38.399
You're gonna do great! What?
01:30:40.960 --> 01:30:47.920
Um as you hit the bar of the door, massive explosion.
01:30:48.079 --> 01:30:49.600
You go sailing back.
01:30:49.680 --> 01:30:53.199
You're gonna take um the boots are still at the door.
01:30:54.720 --> 01:30:55.760
They're so heavy.
01:30:56.319 --> 01:30:58.880
You were blown off your socks!
01:31:00.720 --> 01:31:02.880
Oh man, those boots are gonna be really ruined.
01:31:03.119 --> 01:31:04.880
Or at least have a couple knots in them.
01:31:05.680 --> 01:31:06.880
They're gonna be kinky boots.
01:31:07.199 --> 01:31:08.800
You take 26 points of damage.
01:31:08.960 --> 01:31:11.680
Okay, I'll use my reaction to get out of the blast.
01:31:11.920 --> 01:31:15.840
Okay, yeah, you uh teleport back from the blast.
01:31:15.920 --> 01:31:22.720
You see that the people around you, no one is dead, but people are their shit's ruined, they're hurt, they're severely hurt.
01:31:23.039 --> 01:31:29.279
Uh, I want to just call everybody uh people are hurt, come come here, and then just go to the nearest person.
01:31:29.600 --> 01:31:41.840
The the the audience is like, Viranda steps forward, uh, teleports back onto the stage with her vines and goes, uh, pardon me, there's a brief pause in the show while we investigate a sabotage.
01:31:42.239 --> 01:31:45.359
The show will begin, uh it will resume in in ten minutes.
01:31:45.520 --> 01:31:46.000
In ten minutes.
01:31:46.239 --> 01:31:48.239
She runs backstage, the curtain closes.
01:31:48.399 --> 01:31:48.720
What?
01:31:48.800 --> 01:31:48.960
What?
01:31:49.119 --> 01:31:49.600
What happened?
01:31:49.840 --> 01:31:50.720
And where where am I?
01:31:51.279 --> 01:31:52.000
Everyone is backstage.
01:31:52.079 --> 01:31:55.760
Like you the the door the stage exit to the uh outside.
01:31:56.159 --> 01:31:56.479
Oh okay.
01:31:56.560 --> 01:31:58.640
Oh, the like outside backstage.
01:31:58.800 --> 01:31:58.880
Yeah.
01:31:59.039 --> 01:31:59.119
Okay.
01:31:59.359 --> 01:32:02.560
The like big like barn doors where they ship the sets in and out of.
01:32:02.720 --> 01:32:02.880
Yeah.
01:32:03.199 --> 01:32:06.640
I uh I'm I'm sorry I'm uh uh uh uh uh Evelyn, are you okay?
01:32:06.720 --> 01:32:07.119
I'm sorry.
01:32:07.279 --> 01:32:22.800
Yeah I saw I could see your your your foot blinking, which isn't normal, and I I I had a a feeling with all the sabotage going around that it might have been something bad, and and so that's why I tackled you, and then and there was a bomb in your shoe, and then I tried to get it out of here, but I couldn't I couldn't get there in time because my stupid big boots.
01:32:23.119 --> 01:32:29.680
You see, uh Phil uh has like pushed his way backstage and runs up to Evelyn and goes, Oh my god, Evelyn, oh thank God.
01:32:29.840 --> 01:32:31.520
Oh god, okay, I'm so glad you're okay.
01:32:31.680 --> 01:32:34.800
Evelyn, was there any time that you weren't separated from your shoes?
01:32:35.199 --> 01:32:35.520
What?
01:32:35.840 --> 01:32:38.560
Were you were your shoes ever not in your own eyesight?
01:32:38.880 --> 01:32:43.039
Yeah during rehearsal, I I I I think I I I I I left them in the room for a time.
01:32:43.119 --> 01:32:43.439
I don't know.
01:32:43.760 --> 01:32:45.199
Who hasn't been at rehearsal?
01:32:45.520 --> 01:32:47.680
I who I um none of the contestants.
01:32:47.920 --> 01:32:49.199
Right, we were all there, right?
01:32:49.439 --> 01:32:52.960
Um Viranda goes, listen! I have a mind.
01:32:53.119 --> 01:32:58.560
If a single person dies, I'm disqualifying you all.
01:32:58.880 --> 01:33:00.800
Well, now I've changed my mind.
01:33:01.279 --> 01:33:02.319
I didn't do anything!
01:33:02.560 --> 01:33:08.399
I if one more person dies, if one of you tries to kill one more person, we need two deaths.
01:33:08.720 --> 01:33:09.279
Yeah, who?
01:33:10.079 --> 01:33:12.079
Oh, yeah, no, sorry, right now for you.
01:33:12.720 --> 01:33:13.439
Who's the second?
01:33:13.840 --> 01:33:14.159
Ryan.
01:33:14.720 --> 01:33:15.039
Ryan.
01:33:15.520 --> 01:33:16.079
Who's the first?
01:33:16.319 --> 01:33:20.800
Who why she calls out, Hugo, Hugo! Why did you not tell me that someone tried to kill Ryan?
01:33:21.119 --> 01:33:23.039
You I I can I didn't think that you needed to know.
01:33:23.199 --> 01:33:24.000
Well, I do need to know.
01:33:24.159 --> 01:33:25.920
I do need to know, but thank you very much.
01:33:26.560 --> 01:33:26.880
Okay.
01:33:27.840 --> 01:33:29.039
Murderers say what?
01:33:29.840 --> 01:33:30.159
What?
01:33:31.359 --> 01:33:38.079
What she goes, it is out of the question to cancel the pageant.
01:33:38.479 --> 01:33:39.279
We don't want to cancel it.
01:33:39.520 --> 01:33:40.640
Yeah, I work really hard on my job.
01:33:40.960 --> 01:33:41.680
We have to do our stuff.
01:33:41.920 --> 01:33:43.920
Yeah, I can live everything.
01:33:46.000 --> 01:33:51.920
If one more person is hurt, there will be no pageant, and no one will get to the stardrop elixir for the first time.
01:33:52.479 --> 01:33:54.079
That's why you want it to stop, isn't it?
01:33:54.399 --> 01:33:56.000
You don't have the stardrop elixir, do you?
01:33:56.560 --> 01:33:56.800
What?
01:33:57.199 --> 01:33:59.039
Was the rumor that I started actually true?
01:34:00.239 --> 01:34:00.800
What are you talking about?
01:34:01.119 --> 01:34:01.760
Can we see it?
01:34:02.560 --> 01:34:04.399
It grows at the end of the ceremony.
01:34:04.479 --> 01:34:05.199
It grows from the tree.
01:34:05.359 --> 01:34:07.039
Of course we don't have it yet because of it.
01:34:07.279 --> 01:34:08.560
It has grown every year like clockwork.
01:34:10.720 --> 01:34:14.960
But you don't you don't want it to you want the pageant to stop.
01:34:15.439 --> 01:34:17.039
Why would I want the pageant to stop?
01:34:17.680 --> 01:34:23.840
Because you want to win it, but you can't, because you've lost it already, and you can't do it again.
01:34:24.079 --> 01:34:25.600
You can only compete once.
01:34:26.000 --> 01:34:39.039
You see, she closes her eyes and just kind of shakes her head, and Phil goes, I am as a concerned chaperone of this pageant, I think it best that Miss Pastor steps down.
01:34:39.359 --> 01:34:41.279
She doesn't care about Mogosega though.
01:34:41.520 --> 01:34:43.920
She goes, Do you all want me to step down?
01:34:44.239 --> 01:34:44.399
No.
01:34:44.800 --> 01:34:46.319
As pageant chair, would you like me to step down?
01:34:46.399 --> 01:34:46.960
I don't want you to step down.
01:34:47.039 --> 01:34:47.359
I don't care.
01:34:47.760 --> 01:34:49.439
One person said that, Phil.
01:34:49.760 --> 01:34:50.720
We don't want you to step down.
01:34:50.800 --> 01:34:54.800
We want to keep going, but we also want to help you catch who's sabotaging your show.
01:34:55.199 --> 01:34:56.000
Even if it's yourself.
01:34:56.720 --> 01:34:57.199
We're trying.
01:34:57.279 --> 01:34:59.439
Why don't you have any security for this event?
01:34:59.760 --> 01:35:02.720
Because security is not beautiful.
01:35:03.039 --> 01:35:03.439
Okay, well.
01:35:04.000 --> 01:35:05.439
You can hire beautiful security.
01:35:05.520 --> 01:35:07.680
You no one who's a security guard has ever been beautiful.
01:35:07.760 --> 01:35:08.800
They're fives at best.
01:35:08.880 --> 01:35:09.119
Thank you.
01:35:09.359 --> 01:35:11.359
Well, I have some material to add to my type five.
01:35:11.439 --> 01:35:14.399
Hey, I've been a security officer before, and I'm smoking.
01:35:14.640 --> 01:35:15.199
I said what I said.
01:35:15.439 --> 01:35:15.840
She mug you.
01:35:15.920 --> 01:35:16.479
She mugged you.
01:35:16.720 --> 01:35:18.159
Why do your breasts look so much bigger?
01:35:18.800 --> 01:35:19.520
I shouldn't comment on that.
01:35:20.319 --> 01:35:20.640
I'm going.
01:35:20.960 --> 01:35:22.159
My eyes are up here.
01:35:23.359 --> 01:35:27.199
Um she uh begins to uh leave from backstage.
01:35:27.279 --> 01:35:29.039
Um Phil goes, Evelyn, are you okay?
01:35:29.119 --> 01:35:30.880
Do you want to do you want to pull out of the competition?
01:35:31.119 --> 01:35:34.800
And Evelyn goes, No, I think I should stay.
01:35:35.359 --> 01:35:38.000
You sounded like you were doing really well before I tackled you.
01:35:38.159 --> 01:35:38.239
Yeah.
01:35:38.560 --> 01:35:39.680
You can dance if you want to.
01:35:40.079 --> 01:35:42.000
You can put those You can leave your friends behind.
01:35:42.159 --> 01:35:42.319
Yeah.
01:35:42.640 --> 01:35:44.079
Uh Phil goes, okay.
01:35:44.319 --> 01:35:46.319
I'll I'll leave you I'll leave you to it.
01:35:46.479 --> 01:35:48.399
Uh anyone who wants to can make an insight check.
01:35:48.880 --> 01:35:49.600
Onto Phil?
01:35:50.159 --> 01:35:51.119
See, I don't have to do it.
01:35:51.279 --> 01:35:52.319
I'm due for a 20.
01:35:52.560 --> 01:35:53.680
Oh yeah, 19.
01:35:54.000 --> 01:35:56.239
But Rex is like, my boy.
01:35:56.479 --> 01:35:56.880
What am I doing?
01:35:57.119 --> 01:35:59.439
But he's my boy, and I think it makes sense that I got a 19.
01:35:59.760 --> 01:36:01.039
Janice probably got a better donor.
01:36:01.359 --> 01:36:01.600
24.
01:36:01.920 --> 01:36:02.399
Fuck you.
01:36:04.239 --> 01:36:05.039
24.
01:36:05.119 --> 01:36:05.920
Um, Jack.
01:36:06.239 --> 01:36:06.640
19?
01:36:07.199 --> 01:36:12.640
You see, uh, Phil's eyes are like wet with tears, which makes sense.
01:36:12.720 --> 01:36:12.960
Uh-huh.
01:36:13.119 --> 01:36:15.439
Um, they look like they've been wet with tears.
01:36:18.560 --> 01:36:19.199
My boy.
01:36:20.000 --> 01:36:22.479
He goes, Alright, have a great rest of the competition.
01:36:22.640 --> 01:36:33.039
Um, and uh he he he goes over to you guys and goes, please, uh I don't have much um to thank you for I've got I don't have much money to.
01:36:35.119 --> 01:36:38.800
If you wanna thank us, then be straight with us.
01:36:39.199 --> 01:36:40.560
What does Hexus have on you?
01:36:40.800 --> 01:36:41.920
Put the coin down.
01:36:43.039 --> 01:36:43.600
What coin?
01:36:43.920 --> 01:36:46.239
In your the one in your pocket that you're about to give us.
01:36:46.960 --> 01:36:49.119
He he pulls out like a small bundle.
01:36:49.279 --> 01:36:54.000
Uh you see he reaches into it and he goes, I I don't have I don't know what you're talking about.
01:36:54.079 --> 01:36:57.039
I've got he like opens a coin bag and starts going through it.
01:36:57.279 --> 01:37:00.800
You see that there's a bunch of coins with this Mogus uh horn on it.
01:37:01.039 --> 01:37:07.439
He goes, This is just This is what money I don't this is just I'm from Pantoras.
01:37:07.520 --> 01:37:08.560
This is what we have for money.
01:37:08.640 --> 01:37:09.920
This is our tender.
01:37:10.159 --> 01:37:12.960
Can I use a quick ritual and cast detect magic on the coins?
01:37:13.199 --> 01:37:13.840
Uh yeah.
01:37:14.079 --> 01:37:15.279
Um I do that.
01:37:15.680 --> 01:37:18.640
You do not detect magic on the coins.
01:37:19.279 --> 01:37:22.000
You do detect magic on Phil.
01:37:22.800 --> 01:37:27.199
You detect a strong magic coming from his side.
01:37:28.560 --> 01:37:32.319
And you detect a similar magic coming off of Rex's back.
01:37:32.560 --> 01:37:33.520
Uh, I was right.
01:37:33.760 --> 01:37:34.880
The gash! The gash.
01:37:35.439 --> 01:37:35.680
Guys.
01:37:36.000 --> 01:37:38.000
And that's where we're gonna end the session.
01:37:39.039 --> 01:37:40.159
We were so close.
01:37:40.399 --> 01:37:47.840
Next time, we will resume with, I believe, the final episode of this mystery, but also with the talents of our great competitors.
01:37:48.239 --> 01:37:49.199
We're so close.
01:37:49.439 --> 01:37:51.600
Who will win the Resplendence Royale?
01:37:53.279 --> 01:37:55.760
Who is the murderer behind all of this?
01:37:55.920 --> 01:37:56.720
Is it Phil?
01:37:56.800 --> 01:37:57.680
Is Phil innocent?
01:37:57.760 --> 01:37:58.800
Is it more than Phil?
01:37:58.960 --> 01:37:59.520
We'll see.
01:37:59.680 --> 01:38:00.319
Did I do it?
01:38:00.479 --> 01:38:01.439
Did Rex do it?
01:38:01.680 --> 01:38:02.000
Maybe.
01:38:02.159 --> 01:38:02.960
I was just gonna say.
01:38:03.359 --> 01:38:06.000
I mean, I think we've been next to someone the whole time.
01:38:06.159 --> 01:38:09.119
Maybe Rex was doing it when Patch was working on his costume.
01:38:09.359 --> 01:38:12.960
No, I was harassing uh poor Helga or whatever it was.
01:38:14.960 --> 01:38:17.600
