Transcript
In spite of what you have heard, we're at the height of our powers Atop the tallest and towers They'll never stop us by having to trust That we will do what we must Until it's turning out just like you plan
We're self-round is long But our mojo's strong And unless I'm wrong And I'm not We're at the height of our power
So hair dryer activates his, you know, drying apparatus.
Do you want to take another pass at that, man?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hair dryer grabs the pull cord on the front of his mech suit and pulls, and you hear the kind of engine start as these like you know dryer tubes these silver tubes arc out from him um the hot air blowing from them lifts him off of the air as other tubes kick in from the back and he comes flying into the house um you see him hover over the syringes laid up on the floor in the front as he goes past knocking over the animatronics that have been set up in the hallway certainly not all of them surely he didn't get bonked or scared by the big tree with the face on You know what?
Give me Griffin because he's moving pretty fast.
Give me a 2d8 roll.
2d8 roll.
One success.
With one success, it knocks him
back for a second.
He doesn't get scared, but it gives you guys...
The two of you, Navy and Roger, are still up on the main floor while Lyle is down on the lower level.
You have a second.
to react as he's coming charging in.
I think I'm just going to try to reset position, right?
Go back to my little hiding space near the stairwell behind these bushes because I see that Roger is kind of doing the same thing.
Roger's posted up next to the screening room.
So I think if we can get the element of surprise here,
it would only-I mean, it worked so well with the last guy.
What about you, Roger?
What are you doing?
I think staying in place until he gets a little bit closer and then
taking action then.
Okay.
He comes hovering in.
He makes his way.
He gets in
here in the center of the space and begins kind of scanning around.
Hot boys!
Hot boys!
What have you done to my hot boys?
Give me a 3D 8-roll, Roger, for the folks in the movie.
We're going to see if they can hear over the movie and through the closed door.
Ah, okay.
154.
I like the idea that you locked them in there and then turned up the volume all the way.
That immediately becomes like black sight, like torture experiment at that point.
No, no, no.
So they hear and you hear them react to it, but they cannot get the door open.
They are still trapped in the room.
He's hovering around.
You can see this hot air as it is spreading around from him, and he's blowing around, spinning in a circle.
He's just knocking books off the shelf in the library.
Knickknacks, decorations, picture frames are falling off the wall.
Destruction is happening all over the place.
Are there any of the traps that have not tripped?
Are there any untripped traps?
Tripped, trapped, bobble cop hit with a bottle from the hospital for talking that mess.
I mean, I think the flashing lights and ghost sounds are whatever I had.
Yeah,
the only ongoing ones are the waxy, slippery floor at the top of the stairs and the lights and
sounds.
And where are the lights and sounds?
Happening all over the place every like 15, 20 seconds.
Okay.
I'm trying to figure out if it would make sense to try to lure him nearer to any of the unsprung traps.
Man, let's get him out of this space.
Like the bottom floor seems so much more
indestructible with all the training stuff and the pools and stuff.
I would rather...
He is going to destroy this whole room.
Where do we want him?
I think downstairs, right?
Because Axel Isle's already down there.
Okay.
All right.
Roger is going to use Counterfeit
to imitate one of the hot boys.
But which one?
Oh, man.
The classic Query
Hot Boy to imitate.
Curdie.
Oh.
That was a great choice.
Curdy Hot Boy.
I hope Curdy wasn't one of his favorites.
I hope Curtie wasn't one of the ones that stepped on the syringes, the medicine surprise.
Well,
a medicine whoopsie.
A medicine whoops.
So he's going to imitate one of the...
Should I roll or try to do the thing first?
You know what, Dad?
I want to hear you do the thing first.
Be a hot boy.
Okay.
Do what comes naturally.
Okay.
Oh.
Where are
now wait a minute?
Yes.
Is that the button?
Oh my god, Mac.
That was
one of the wilder sounds I've heard you make in my life.
The hot boy's so hot he's melting.
Joseph Merrick somewhere.
We're upstairs.
It's upstairs.
And we want him to go upstairs.
Okay, so we are on the first floor.
That is the thing on the left, right?
The one on the right is the basement.
And the basement is where the lower levels.
We're downstairs, boss, and we need help.
We're in big trouble.
Big, big
trouble.
God, Curtis, save us.
What happened to you, Curtie?
If I describe it, it will cause so much emotional trauma for you, you won't be able to function.
You just get down here and help us.
Okay, now roll 3d8.
Clint, this voice is next level good.
It is a shame that you are not playing Curdie this year.
As much as I love Roger.
I'm not always this Fleming.
You brought Curdie to life.
That's a good one, Dad.
Thank you.
Okay.
This is going to be a Curdy spin-off.
Eight, two, and two.
So one season.
Okay, yeah.
So
he's unsure how to feel about it.
He gets to the top of the stairs.
He moves over there.
And he's still hovering, right?
So the waxy floor isn't quite getting him.
And he said,
Curdy, You sound different.
Can I pop out and try and knock him down the stairs and get him where we want him?
Absolutely can.
Yeah, you absolutely can.
Then in one of the light flickerings, I'm going to wait until it gets dark and then sort of just like step up right beside him.
So when the lights come back on, I'm just like, hey, cool.
Oh, wait, I'm doing the curdy voice.
It's so good, Daddy is.
Stay in your lane, dude.
Sorry.
So you've also got a cool tech backpack.
What?
Okay, with using your lights and soundtrap, give me Bulky Boy 3D and add an extra D8.
So we're going to do 4DA.
And the fact that the floor is slippers, right?
Not great, guys.
One success.
1338.
He is surprised and attempts to grapple you.
Oh, that's great.
That's what I wanted.
And you slip?
Oh, no, that's it.
On the waxy floor, and the two of you go down the stairs.
That's what I wanted.
Yes, but you are not in control.
You're sending me on a real emotional journey right now travest
but listen that's what a mix success says does bud yeah sure
so the two of you are down he is in control of your form you know what i mean i i don't know how to feel about that
well he's holding on to like your lapels onto you the straps of your water pack right but he is uh coming out on top cool put it that way Uh, yeah, I want to get in.
Um, Roger, you've just seen this happen and they disappeared down the steps.
What do you do
uh go charging after
no you know what here's what he's going to do oh he is going to go charging after but at the very top of the stairs is going to
uh
nimbly
is that a word is nimbly a word yeah yeah
nimbly leap over now you've said it too much and i'm not sure anymore yeah nimbly leap over nimbly nimbly nimbly no it doesn't get nimbly nimbly yeah okay it in the curly voice leaps over the slippery uh and nimbly nimbly nimbly yeah okay now it makes sense
it's great travis how are you not loving this man i am are you kidding me okay okay i'm loving it
so he nimbly leaps over the slippery part
and uh just launches himself
to do a um to do a a a a cownin' ball
a cownin ball you think It's like a half of cannonball, cow, and Calvin ball.
Hold on, let me look in the back here.
That just has a bucket that says cow puns, and it's got that.
We're talking about morsels, tiny crumbs left unused.
I'll tell you guys, I'm looking at the judges, and one of them just thumbs up so hard he broke his wrist.
Oh, man.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
So you're also.
In my folio, we've never stalked anything like that.
you're also cannonballing into me too because we are wrestling right yeah roger give me you're uh a pretty graceful man as an infiltrator and spy and we've established this um so first you're gonna give me 3d8 roll to avoid the slippery floor okay and then a 3d8 roll to calm down oh mixed success okay
so we're gonna change that to a 2d8 roll to cannonball down the steps since you only got a mixed success another mix
success guys we need to be we need to get off the fence here we need to pick it off the pot get real
start failing if you fail you get experience this is the mixed success is the worst result
um so with that mixed success um you're gonna come down maybe not as graceful as you had intended um you're gonna knock into Navy and dryer as they are together.
You are going to knock Navy out of Hair Dryer's control.
Thank you.
But you are both prone.
And he goes kind of spinning off.
Okay.
Did I take any damage?
No, not on Mix 6.
Us big boys don't gotta worry about that falling down the stairs.
We're big boys.
Yeah, you two are prone though.
So
you are like hands and knees.
Lyle,
you are up.
I'm downstairs.
Has anybody made it down to where I am?
Yeah, man, look at this.
If you look on Roll 20, you'll see.
We just both leaped and rolled down the stairs.
And tumbled and fell down.
No, but I mean bad guys.
I don't care what they're doing.
Yeah.
Hair dryers, though.
Yeah, we're all down.
Foot of the stairs.
Okay, perfect.
They don't see me.
Hmm?
They don't see me.
In what way?
I'm in the river.
You're in the lazy river.
I'm in the crazy river.
Whoa.
Can you tell me the difference between a lazy river and a crazy river?
I'm in it.
And I'm on and I'm ready to fight.
Oh, that's great.
I'm going to turn this lazy river into a crazy river.
So I'm cycling in the river
until...
Oh, I can't make any noise, right?
Because they'll hear that.
So I'm just floating in the cycle until I can get the jump on them.
Oh, okay.
So I'm going to have an advantage on this roll.
Because
I don't want to put words in your mouth, but I am using the crazy river to float up on them and get the jump on hairdryer.
Can I tell you what you've done here, Justin?
Yeah.
Now I'm toy, because I was going to give you advantage.
Yeah.
Now I'm worried you've taken words out of my mouth.
Yeah.
What I meant was I didn't mean like literal rolling advantage.
I meant I'm getting the advantage on them.
That's how I was.
I don't want to technically.
I don't mean technical advantage.
I mean narratively have an advantage.
I don't actually know if you realize this, Travis, creator of this game, but I don't think there's advantage in the abnormal scale.
You know, I can just add dice
at my whim.
Yeah, right.
Well, Justin, you already have extreme hiding.
Use camouflage to hide in the environment.
Yes.
So give me a 4d8 roll, and we'll see how it turns out.
Holy success.
Wow.
Okay, is there?
Here's rule on the fly, Travis.
We got a straight here.
We got a 5, 6, a 7, and an 8.
That's got to be something, right?
It feels like something.
I mean,
it's going to be.
Let me think.
Let me think.
Okay.
Justin, here's what I'll say.
This is your reward for four successes here.
One, you have become one with your environment.
This crazy river is now, it's as much you as you are.
You were born in these waters.
Yes.
He has merely discovered them.
You were born in them.
He adopted them.
I want you now to feel like you can move through them with ease.
But two, you also are going to get, when you are ready to act upon Hair Dryer, you are going to get two extra dice to roll against him.
It is Hair Dryer's turn.
As far as he's aware, the two of you, Roger and Navy,
are the only combatants he's facing.
So four of his mini silver.
Oh, they know where I'm at.
Oh, okay.
They know.
Oh, they know.
They know the old crazy river routine for sure.
He's going to turn his hoses upon you and blast you with two extreme blasts of hot air.
Both of you now crouch down on the ground.
So, Griffin, normally, maybe would have bulky boy, but as you are prone, you're going to only roll two d8s.
Well, bulky boy is also, it makes him hard to knock down.
It doesn't make him more resistant to damage or whatever.
And I've already been knocked down, so bulky boy definitely don't apply.
And
yeah, you, Roger, you get one d8 to try to avoid taking full damage here how many is he rolling
well so i'm having you guys resist because he's not attacking yeah he's trying to like throw you around with big blast cool cool cool cool okay i'm going old school that's oh no
that's double ones double ones that's a totally bogus that timeline that is totally bogus oh that's so bad practice makes perfect though
it does make perfect what happens to it well you gotta roll two man you might be joining the double the snake guys club.
Yeah, don't get all that.
I thought that was just those guys over there.
Am I rolling one or two?
You're rolling one.
There's not even a button for that.
I'm rolling an actual D8.
Okay.
Big D8.
Jesus.
I swear to God, it's a one.
All right.
Oh, my God, guys.
Yeah, so you guys are like, he turns on you, and you two are like ready to get just absolutely tossed around like rag dolls
until
and then
he hears a splash from behind him and out from the water.
He hears a whisper in his ear,
splish splash, I've been biding my time.
Then I kick him in the butt.
That's an undeniably perfect maneuver.
That's really good.
That's cool.
Well placed.
Perfectly placed.
And here's the thing is, I know I got 2v8 on this, Travis.
So you already told me that.
So I know whatever kick this guy's about to get is going to be the best kick I could give to a butt.
This feels like a time to shine situation.
This feels like a fateful button.
Three time to shine dice, because this is exactly Axel Isle in his element in a crazy river, kicking butt.
This is the very act of kicking butt crystallizes the tone of this season of the show.
It's not a gargoyles thing.
They don't kick butts on gargoyles.
No, no, not as a rule.
It's trending more samurai pizza cats.
Yeah, true.
Okay, Justin, that's three dice plus two plus,
let me think here.
This is,
I mean, this is training.
This is a kick.
So eight.
Total?
Yes, eight total.
Ain't no button for that either.
Yeah, you're going to roll 68 and 2d8s.
Oh my god.
Holy wait, this has to be something too, right?
Oh, God, I got a triple cowabunga.
Triple.
You got a triple mega cowabunga.
And a triple mega cowabunga.
Sorry, I got an ultra mega cowabunga trick.
Yeah, man.
This is the greatest thing I've ever seen.
Triple eights and a six.
So four successes total.
It's that ultra mega.
I want to call it ultra mega cowabunga.
And sandwich between these two rolls was a double, total failure.
on mine and dad's parts.
The dice are being kind of silly today, I feel like.
Yeah, so not only do
not only do Navy and Roger not take any damage, right?
As they're sitting there, you get that like hot blast of air that starts to like vibrate their cheeks and lips
as it's like blowing them backwards, right?
Their eyelids flapping, right, in the wind.
Um, you come springing up out in a like just kind of perfect, like a perfect just hovering kick into his butt.
And not only does he go flying and bash against the wall and take two damage and kind of crash to the ground for a second, it's perfectly framed in the security camera footage
of this amazing moment.
It's so good, man.
Thank you.
I point at Axelia.
I say, that one's gonna be in the TikTok reel.
For sure.
Thanks.
And then you hear, boom, boom.
The front doorbell has just rung.
Oh, man.
I hear one of my cats upstairs crying.
You know what they're, you know, what they're upset about.
Just like the state of things and whatever.
no they're only ever wanting one thing and that's for me to get the smalls out dad we don't know how to

Let's learn everything.
So let's do a quick progress check.
Have we learned about quantum physics?
Yes, episode 59.
We haven't learned about the history of gossip yet, have we?
Yes, we have.
Same episode, actually.
Have we talked to Tom Scott about his love of roller coasters?
Episode 64.
So how close are we to learning everything?
Bad news.
news, we still haven't learned everything yet.
Oh, we're ruined.
No, no, no, it's good news as well.
There is still a lot to learn.
Woo!
I'm Dr.
Ella Hubber.
I'm regular Tom Long.
I'm Caroline Roper, and on Let's Learn Everything, we learn about science and a bit of everything else too.
And although we haven't learned everything yet, I've got a pretty good feeling about this next episode.
Join us every other Thursday on Maximum Fun.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
Um, hmm.
How's it looking down here, Trav?
I mean, he's he's knocked low for a second.
Oh, hey, let me see.
Uh, camera activate.
You can see, like, this connects to the front panel.
It's an intercom system throughout the house, and there, you see on the video a delivery person with you know, boxes of parts, and uh, he's just kind of standing there at the front door looking around, checking his watch.
Oh, okay.
Well, hey, timeout on this.
All right, guys, we've got a delivery.
Hold on.
And then I carefully walk upstairs, avoiding the slippery things on the stairs.
Nice try, Travis.
Avoiding the drug needles that I strewn about.
And I'm opening the door carefully in a ginger manner.
It said, hello, my name is Axelle.
I'll take the package.
Thank you.
Oh, yeah, man.
Uh, yeah, man.
Uh,
I just need you to sign here.
Of course, I would never want to impede your business.
Oh, thank you so much, man.
Deeply underappreciated.
Absolutely.
And here is your pat here is your signature, my friend.
Have a good day.
All right.
Oh, of course.
Yeah, one second.
My wallet's
in my
dad's house.
What?
Thank you for thank you for everything.
Close the door.
Well.
head back downstairs.
Well, before you can head back downstairs, yeah, give us a little solo scene with Jim Bob.
Hair dryer is kind of, you know, shaking off the day.
He's still on the gun.
Sorry, did he just.
Where did he go?
Did he say timeout?
Yeah.
We did a timeout on the battle so he could sign for a pack.
You've never been interrupted by like a delivery driver in the middle of a battle.
He did this all the time, boss.
What?
You were Kurdie?
All the time.
Wow.
Wow.
It was always, I was always Kurdie.
Hey, can I ask you guys a question just real quick?
Yeah.
Yes.
Did you kill any of my hot boys?
No.
Well, I saw a bunch of mystery syringes.
No telling what was in those.
Sorry, what?
There may have been a big fart blast.
Actually, I think I was the only one to suffer that particularly.
There couldn't have been COVID boosters.
Or vitamins.
Did any of them have a preexisting heart condition?
Alright, so I'm sorry about that.
Oh, goodness.
I can't get out of this voice.
Sure, one second.
Just a delivery.
I don't know.
It was the...
Sorry, you got a delivery?
Yeah, one sec.
I haven't opened it yet.
This is my favorite part.
And I find some spare parts for the oven upstairs.
Oh, whoa.
Well, actually
continue the timeout for a second because i'm what i know
just so we can just leave him down here
if that's actually really your response i'll forget i'll be sure if i can just put him near the oven these two yeah of course i i do like a mid-fight timeout though because you can like catch your breath a little bit and put your best put really put your back into the rest of the i saw that there was a there was a rainforest cafe over there can i go grab like a drink or something
um
I'd rather, I mean, they'll have to shorten.
I mean, if you're about to fix the oven, like, why don't we stop in at the Rainforest Cafe and have a drink?
Well, yeah, you guys want to go to the Rainforest Cafe and have a drink together, and I'll just fix the oven.
Okay, sounds good to me.
You're going to fix an oven?
It's pretty basic repair, and if you're doing it correctly, it's a real fire hazard.
Well, do you want any help with that?
Like, I built my whole mech suit here.
I could help you out.
Um,
yeah, actually, it would be great.
Yeah, I went to DeVry.
Oh, they're serious about success.
Yeah, come on, man.
Okay, we'll just take a quick time out and I'll fix your oven.
Okay.
Okay, do you want me to bring you something from Rainforest County?
Can you actually try to climb up?
Sorry, let me say that again.
I misspoke.
Can you actually try to clean up?
Oh, like,
would you mind cleaning up?
Me?
Me?
Yeah.
No, no, no, no, no.
I need your help with the oven.
Okay.
I need you to clean up down here if you could.
There's so much best.
They're going to be so angry angry with okay but then we're gonna time in and keep fighting right absolutely maybe outside
okay where is the swiffer
okay so 45 minutes later
thank you thank you again by the way i'm sorry that you burned yourself that's so embarrassing no it's okay he was minor um you know all things considered it's pretty easy fix you said they had a guy coming to fix this well you know what it charged him an arm and a leg i I bet.
I'm sure, yeah.
Well, thanks, thanks again.
I appreciate it.
So, no problem.
Where was
all right?
Yeah, oh, time in, yeah.
Oh, okay, great.
Only if you're ready.
No, no, no, I'm good.
And give me
ready.
They're still raiding the rainforest cafe.
There's no way they got served in 45 minutes.
No,
they wish.
Give me,
Lyle, a.
I'm looking to see what you've got here.
Yeah, okay, just 2d8 reaction roll here.
Or excuse me, yeah, 2d8 instinct.
Mixed success.
Mixed success, yeah.
One of those dryer tubes from his suit comes whipping at your head,
rejected by the blast.
You're able to duck it, but you have to kind of jump out of the way.
Pretty rude.
You said it was time in.
Well, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, no, that's true.
All right.
Okay.
And he's going to tackle you.
Well, more like pick you up as he, you know, you jump out of the way.
He grabs you by the back of the shirt.
And he's going to
take you back into the library.
The two of you both flying back there.
I just finished putting all the books up in there.
So rude.
Okay, what do you do, Lyle?
So we're back upstairs.
Yeah.
Tell me about the library.
I know I've been here a million times, but tell me what I see.
So in each corner, you see tall bookcases, maybe 12 feet high, you would guesstimate, with some ladders that would move between them.
There's a set of three in each corner so that they make kind of an angled, you know, straight, angled, straight, kind of across the corners.
So 12 bookcases total.
Varying sizes of books, thicknesses of books, mostly books about amphibians.
I mean, one would hope, right?
Yeah.
Hey, is your butt okay?
I meant to mention.
It hurts really bad,
but it has been 45 minutes since you kicked it, so I've had time to recover slightly.
Oh, perfect.
Okay, that's just what I wanted to hear.
Dropkick to the butt.
Uh-huh.
It's like when you focus on a like a mech's eyes.
Flying dropkick to the button.
So in your mind, this is, yeah, this is like a God of War original series big battle where there's like a glowing gem or something you have to hit in the giant evil thing, and it's his butt.
Right?
It's so weird that we're actually like not just brothers, but psychic.
Yes, yeah, okay, great, great.
It's like
when you fight like an octopus monster in an RPG, and suckers will just try and take out the tentacles, but it's like, nah, you got to focus on that one spot, or else it's just going to keep making more tentacles.
And for him, it's just Justin.
Frankly, you're using my own logic against me because I've argued many times before that the butt is nature's perforation and would be the easiest way to tear a person in half.
Yes.
Yes,
that and many other interesting things you've said to me over the years.
We have
all stuck with you.
I know, thank you.
We have so few exposed lobes, if you think about it.
But you could not, if you're going to rip someone in half, why not start at the butt?
It's a good place to get a grip.
It's not just perforated.
It's not just perforated, Travis.
You can really get a pretty good grip on that thing.
Pretty good.
That's my logic.
Anyway, give me an attack roll there, kicking him in the butt.
You do have battle training in your ab skills.
You have 3d8 with your ab skills.
So give me a 3d8 roll to kick.
Did that work?
Oh, my golly.
Oh, sheesh.
That's three big failures.
Frank is three big failures.
And that could be the name of our superhero, of our abdomen's team.
super scot me and again three big failures
um as you go to kick in first of all make sure you get your practice next point perfect point did you almost say point thing
point
if you named it that it might be easier to remember the mechanic maybe um he grabs your ankle
and
attempts to throw you oh my god wow he attempts to throw you into one of the bookshelves but he does not do so with three failures tell me how you avoid getting thrown into a bookcase.
I look at the spine of a book and what has fallen open.
Actually, I look at the open page.
It says, like, how to avoid getting grabbed, what it was.
And so I noticed that book, and I'm like, what in the heck?
I'm reading it.
It just says duck.
And then I duck.
Okay, so he grabs your foot as you try to kick him.
You see the book.
He goes to let go, right?
And you just kind of duck as you're reading the book.
Yeah, and then I'm going to go ladder.
And then once I shrink down, now I'm on the ground, like the book said, and then I bite his hand.
Does the book say to do that?
Are you still following the book at this point?
I don't have teeth.
Shoot.
I, okay, I, uh,
I'll...
I can't kick him again.
It's too embarrassing.
What do you be expecting that?
See that coming.
Okay, so I avoided the attack.
Why is the it why is Why is it on me to do something else?
I avoided the attack masterfully.
Okay.
All I asked was how you avoided the attack.
Why did you, Travis?
Why didn't you interrupt me?
I'm trying to do that last in life.
Well,
you gotta start now.
You gotta have limits, Travis.
Okay, so Roger and Navy, you hear a scuffle going on upstairs.
What do you do?
And we're just chilling.
I believe we're chilling in the Rainforest Cafe.
That is where we left off.
Yes.
I
look at him.
I look at Roger.
I say, oh, is it time in?
We missed time in.
They didn't let us know.
That sucks.
I feel so excluded.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Foul play.
Foul play, sir.
Let's go.
I am covered nearly head to toe in spaghetti as I rush up the stairs
into the library.
I tried to eat.
Is that part of your plan?
No, I just have never eaten spaghetti before and he didn't really know how it works and how to do it.
Like, he is still kind of an animal and he tried his hand at like pasta with a knife and fork situation.
Was he bad at it or did he just eat it with such childish abandoned?
It was, no, it was a skill issue for sure.
Okay.
Okay.
Roger, is there any food you would like to voluntarily coat yourself in?
Well, Roger was trying to be the good.
No, not coat himself in, but Roger was trying to be a thoughtful host.
He is
bringing a leftover bag with him
and
goes rushing up to the
confrontation and says,
All right, fellas, I've got
beer lava
nachos.
I've got a volcano cob salad,
some pastelaya,
but I've got to.
Careful with the pastelaya.
It's tricky.
Yeah, it's real tricky.
Look to my left to see.
And I brought a Rumble in the jungle wrap.
And I think you'd really like this hair dryer.
And he throws the rumble in the jungle wrap.
At whatever
if he's a giant dryer, he's got to have some kind of intake.
Oh, there's an intake.
Yeah, there's an intake.
Yeah, he throws the rumble in the jungle wraps at the intake.
I thought for sure you were about to attempt diplomacy.
I genuinely thought that's the way this was going.
This is my style of diplomacy.
But that you can't jam a dinner wrap in someone's area.
Go rap first, ask questions later.
Oh, so you're establishing dominance.
So important.
A wrap-based dominant system.
I'm trying to remove his.
I'm trying to remove his advantage of being able to hover above everything.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just bring him down to ground level.
As we've established before, if you wish, you can use your prehensile tail to whip something, to throw something,
giving you 3d8 on that attempt.
All right.
Here it comes.
Nice, dude.
Seven and a half.
Two successes.
Yeah, on two successes, it hits that intake.
And it's not a permanent clock, but I mean, the wind stops while he needs to, like, pull the cord and try to get it unclogged and try to clean it out.
And he is now,
for the moment,
his dryer system is incapacitated.
Nice.
While he is
down,
I want to rush up, really get a good look at this.
Describe his suit, Travis.
Is it like a end of alien, like, Walker mech, or is it more?
No, imagine more like Dr.
Octopus, except instead of like
arms that come out, it's like dryer hoses
and a combination of dryer hoses and like drones.
Yeah.
So he can position the dryer hoses around as well as having kind of a rocket pack on the top
with direction.
Now that it's his mech suit is.
In fact, you know what, Mink, with your big old eyeballs there,
give me a like looking around, you know, checking something out Roll two failures, one success.
With a single, with a mixed success, you get a very distinct impression.
It reminds you a lot of
your water blaster.
I just, I'm going to take an action here, and maybe it doesn't make a lot of sense, but I want to kind of see what happens.
You guys ever get like that on this show?
Where it's like, this isn't going to be good, but I'm curious.
Yeah, one time I ate a rock.
Yeah, that's true.
Sometimes you just do stuff.
See where it goes.
You got to follow the muse.
I'm going to run up, grab one of his hoses, shove my hose inside of it, and blast.
And that's you are.
I love that.
Hey, Griffin.
Ask me if I saw that coming.
I mean, ask me if I think it's romantic.
It might.
I'm concerned it may be.
I don't think it's romantic.
They're gonna do an avatar, I think.
Yeah, that is what they do on Avatar.
We connect our hoses, and I blast, thinking like maybe I can fry this thing from the inside out if it's not built for wet.
Okay.
um give me using your signature item slash back
4d8 attack roll i'm gonna spend i i have only used one time to shine dice i believe so i'm gonna i'm gonna spend two here
there are hose scientists that are gonna see you in the hague for this yeah for sure this is this is the forbidden hose connection that they have warned each other about for you i'm gonna do
that could open a black hole yeah they're not sure what happens.
No, I'll just use two times shine dice.
All right, I'm going to roll 6d8 then.
Do it.
Please.
You have got to be
crap meeting.
3, 4, 3, 3, 4, 1.
You know what I do?
I run in and
I say something really great.
Hold on, my mic's being.
Hold on, my mic's being weird.
That's what you say?
No, no, no.
That's not much much of a closer, Griff, but I guess that's where we'll end the episode.
Oh, my mic's being weird.
I mean, it's not our most exciting ending, but.
Just trying to think of a good, like, catch.
He wants to say, like, some really cool stuff.
I mean, let's do it.
I think that this makes it.
He jumps in and he's like, time to hose down.
Time to hose down.
What?
Time to...
Oh, looks like it's time to hose down the...
Just forget it.
And I jam it in.
I'm like looking at the cheesing at the camera like, this is going to be really good stuff.
As I've covered in spaghetti, like, it's hose time for big boy.
It's hose time for the big boy.
At that moment, two hose guys explode.
Now, unfortunately.
That is fully what he's looking for here.
Like, he is looking for, like, the clip.
He is trying to get the clip.
And he's covered in spaghetti, and he's just at this point shouting monotone, like, the hose, looks like the hose knows when it's time, when it's time to go.
looks like the host knows this time
And I'm just trying to blast his pack with my pack just blast it off with six successes
Travis six failures
with six failures excuse me for me Griffin from my point of view
You blast the wrap remnants out of the intake
and you have just you just pressure washed his system yeah
absolutely clean dude can I get hit by the wet wrap he's not oh absolutely he's not slow motion griffin but six failures i just want to be just shave me punish me papa yeah yeah and you know what griffin it's perfectly framed in the security camera oh no
oh no well i mean this could be good this could go viral in a different way i take a mental note of that uh i looked at a hairdryer like i'm gonna
um permission to uh
undock here i'm gonna just i'm gonna yeah no no no you want to sling backwards?
Yeah, that was if you don't mind
and he pulls he pulls the rip cord on his system once more and the engine kicks in and the hot air begins blowing from his hose again.
And Lyle, you are up.
What is he doing with the hot air?
Right now, you can see like almost like something starting to achieve liftoff.
You know like when you see a rocket jets start, the engine start, you can see like the,
you know, the warm air start to shoot out from the bottom of the hot air, and he's like just starting to hover off the ground.
I'm gonna
try to tackle him into Sergeant Salamander's security center.
Yes, excellent.
Give me...
Since he is just starting to hover and doesn't have full control yet,
give me.
I was gonna ask if the fart trap was still in there, but it's been 45 minutes fully at least.
Well, I didn't, I didn't fart in there, did I?
I thought I farted in the theater.
No, you farted.
Sorry, maybe you're confused.
You farted in two different rooms since the last episode.
I did, and you might have farted multiple times.
It was really like I crop dusting.
I mean, is that
well?
So, for you, uh, Lyle,
you are gonna give me uh 48
total to tackle him into the fart room
man
man
one success
um with a single success you tackle him into the fart room but you are also in the fart room
oh man
okay
well
gotcha
battle over he begins um kind of hovering the different his tentacles around him, for lack of a better word, and trying to create like an area of clean air around him.
And you see the fart begin to swirl around him in a visible way.
So powerful are Roger's farts.
He's a fart bender
from the fart tribe.
We're gonna see how successfully it works.
Oh, with two successes.
Yeah, he's able to create a little pocket of air around his head.
What do you guys do?
Now, I will say, while you have just thrown him into the security room um you are now between him and the door roger's going to use his prehensile tail to to pull lyle out of there okay
yeah give me a 3d8 i can
good cool
that's important
with a mixed success you get hold of him and you are able to get him i would say to the doorway
so now you're kind of half in and half out of the room navy what do you do what do i do i mean i'm i'm kind of really shook by what happened in the last yeah in the last sort of section of course um
how messy is it in here right now are we expecting them back today yeah um he went to go see an opera and but it's been about two hour and 15 since he left yeah i'm gonna i'm gonna start cleaning up a little bit i feel pretty bad
i made such a big mess and then i i mean like earlier with mud and i guess like pasta and um i don't really think i don't really feel like being in the video anymore and so i'm gonna just start sort of clean cleaning things up uh in here just sort of cleaning up following them as they the the battle goes uh so currently he is in the room filled with farts in the security room
Roger, you have your tail around Lyle's firefighter suspenders.
You pulled him to the doorway.
Lyle, you are in the doorway.
What do you do, Lyle?
So I'm out.
I will use Hatchet Man to attack the door keypad, locking it and sealing him in there permanently with the phones.
Hey, do you know if you guys have any Clorox wipes?
Two successes.
On two successes, you slam Hatchet Man into the security panel outside the door.
You see the power inside the room go down and the door slams shut as a security measure.
If anyone tries to hack that panel, the whole thing shuts down and becomes kind of a reverse panic room.
And you have locked hair dryer successfully in Sergeant Salamander's security center.
Woo!
I would like to make an observation.
I would like to observe that Hair Dryer,
there has to be a heat element involved.
in his system, right?
If you're about to suggest that the temperature of the air coming out of his pipes is so extreme that it would ignite the farts, yes, exactly what I was going to suggest.
Well, but that's the fart, this is a chemical reaction for half of our upbringing.
Farts is methane, it's methane.
Farts is methane, he says.
Thanks, Dr.
Wizard.
You hear a hairdryer just kind of like very,
well, for lack of a better word, impotently just banging his fists on the door.
Hey,
not cool.
It stinks like Bucks in here!
Did his accent change again?
Is he from New York all of a sudden?
It's just the door!
It's a New York door that makes sound sound more New York-like?
Listen, we gotta think fast, guys.
Listen, we cannot have one stinky roof remake the math.
We gotta think of it.
We gotta clear this out.
I'd love to watch him just, you know, get knocked out in there, but we gotta get the
stink out.
Well, it looks like you buried your axe right in the control panel.
It'll be a while before you're gonna.
Air drier, do you see a vent in there or anything, man?
I am a vent.
Hey, great.
Can you purify the air?
If I do, will you let me out?
Um,
I don't think that.
Can I roll for if I will?
Are you asking me that you want to roll and see if Lyle wants to let him like you're letting the character control themselves?
sometimes travis i just throw these things out just in mere frip
just in mere dalliance travis not everything needs to be held up to the daylight under such hard scrutiny we all knew it was a simple bon mot let's move on shall we oh i got it i got it i got it i got it we'll say a hairdryer attacked look at all these dudes we knocked out this place is uh just spotless um and we locked him in there and he's been farting like crazy and so we pinned it on him we say he filled it up with his passings
perfect are you guys are you guys
let it out are you talking about
this fart plan but be with you in just a moment hold on just breathe deeply and calmly not this breathe deep what you want to do is breathe in four counts hold it for four counts and then let it out in eight counts just how quick does methane burn this is all i'm trying to figure out well if you've got a sparking control room panel hey hair dryer are you able to get a spark going in there, pal?
No way, man.
This is methane.
Yeah, it's a different kind.
It's safe methane from free-range cows.
It's ethical.
Okay.
All right.
I'm trying to get him to lie a spark to no, yeah, no, I get that.
I get that.
We all had a lot of fun in here, but
we all had like so much, like, tons of fun.
The simple fact is you cannot hard enough to blow up a whole room it's impossible all right this is like not a danger anymore except in the scent department so i just need to let somebody light a match you know that's all i'm trying to get here i get you i get you okay justin yeah i'm gonna have you roll to convince hairdryer to light a match in this that it's safe that it's totally safe i just said all that Yes, and I'm going to say because you are an extreme firefighter, you're more trustworthy in this scenario.
You sound more convincing.
And you have three trained ab dice.
So roll four D8s.
Okay, yeah, you got two successes there.
And he goes, okay, sounds good.
I'm going to kind of cycle it through.
I got,
let's see here.
And you hear, whoof.
And because of the swirl of flame he got, he lights a match on your instruction.
And he is then going to roll.
Well, now, first he's got to stop and drop.
I want you guys,
what did he get?
I rolled it right there.
Yeah, okay, he's like two.
Wait, I get a comedy Oscar.
He got a comedy Oscar.
He got a double cowabunga.
So he funnels the methane through his
vent into one of the
venting pipes there and uses it as kind of a makeshift
like flamethrower like a What's the word I'm looking for like a laser cutter one of the plasma cutters and uses your methane to cycle through to open the door to cut the mechanism to open the door Wow insane can I add that to Roger's powers?
That would be cool.
Do you have a powerful like hair dryer-esque venting system?
Yeah, I'll work on that.
I'll work on that.
It's insane.
Next time we go see the cat.
Snarf.
Can't believe you forgot Snarf saying that's crazy.
Okay.
What do you guys say?
We call this one a draw.
What could that possibly mean in this context?
Also, if you check the scoreboard, it's like 40 to 0.
Yeah, we whipped up on your boys.
Yeah, you guys won.
You guys are formidable, man.
Hold on, hold on.
Can you look up there and say that again?
Yeah.
At the camera?
And say, like, these guys are formidable.
Yeah, you gotta, like, give them a call for all of the, and we'll superimpose the phone number later.
Give them a call.
Give a call for all your
heroic needs.
That's good.
Oh, yeah, you got it.
You got it.
You got it.
Do we have one of those little scan things we can put in the corner?
A QR code?
Yeah, yeah.
Could we...
I guess we can.
I don't know how to make those.
One of my hot boys does.
I think
Stefan.
I've only heard of Zoo Arc codes.
Justin, you are on fire today.
You are on fire.
literally let justin roll every time he says a pun because it hasn't gone uh awesome so far he looks up at the camera goes huh these animals they're formidable they stop me in my tracks call them anytime you have a bad guy related issue and they got great prices what was that great prices and they got great prices reasonable prices Great prices.
Great prices?
Don't add lid, please.
Okay, sorry, sorry, sorry.
And can you sing the theme song at the end?
Yeah.
Yeah.
They have great prices.
Contrary to what you've heard, they're at the height of their power.
Don't get tallest of towers.
They'll stand.
And then he stays right.
Yeah.
Jonathan Colton smashes in through the skylight above.
Oh, yeah.
That's what he says.
Oh, yeah.
IP theft.
Welcome to my crews.
Read your IP theft.
And he says, So, would it be cool if I just kind of collected my hot boys and like left?
Or, yeah, as long as you clean up as you go, um, because uh, I mean, we have quite a bit to do on this floor.
Um, Harris, can I ask out of curiosity, what's the grand plan here, man?
Oh, I was gonna take over this building and turn it into kind of my headquarters, the dry area.
Oh, that's right.
Um, so I will just say, for future reference,
pretty much any,
let me think.
Yeah, any place on earth is going to be a better
sort of place to do that.
Yeah, but I've kind of, but I've like built myself up.
It's like the nemesis of them, because they're all amphibians and like I dry them out and like we have
to do.
There's so many places that are,
there's so many
great buildings that just need an occupant and a little TLC.
And you could put this time and energy into those properties, and you'll get a return on your investment other than a life of
imprisonment.
We actually think we have like a real estate guy.
We do, don't we?
We do.
We have a real estate guy.
I think his name is Neil, but it's been a long time.
It's Dean.
Dean Dean Neil.
And he's an accountant.
Dean Neil is our accountant, and he has been very good to us.
And I think that that would be a better use of your time.
That's all I'm saying, man.
But we also have a real estate guy named Neil Dean.
Okay.
We haven't brought up before.
Now, he is thoroughly corrupt.
So I do not like that.
Which you might like, actually, now that I'm thinking about it.
You should hit up Neil Dean.
So you're saying buy my own building legally.
Right.
Make it the dry area.
There we are.
And not have it be like a criminal enterprise?
Not at all a criminal enterprise.
Huh.
It's just a place for people to come and be dry.
You charge them out the nose.
And you
theme it, right?
Dry wines.
Okay, dry rubs.
Dry your clothes.
Dry your clothes here.
That was going to be the primary thing.
It was like a
like, because, you know, everybody knows where to wash your clothes.
You put that in a washer, right?
But like, maybe you want a separate place to dry them.
Right.
Yeah.
Makes perfect sense.
Huh.
Hey.
I'd like for you to go now.
Okay.
Although.
You've given me a lot to think about.
I'm going to vacuum on my way out.
Sure, I think we've been more than fair here, man.
Yeah.
Also, you have 40 employees.
It's a little wild you don't have an HR person.
The size of your organization demands it.
No, one of the hot boys is
Yeah, Hot Richard.
That's how we remember HR, right?
Hot Rod.
Hot Richard.
Oh, he also is HR.
To make it clear, it's not just a...
He is...
Hot Richard is our HR person.
That's how we remember him.
Works on so many levels.
All right.
So many levels.
Take it easy.
Now, hopefully, next time our paths cross, maybe we can do like a team-up if you join the side of the right.
Yeah.
We'll see.
I might just stick with neutral, but I'll invite you guys to the grand opening.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, I'm there.
So he collects his hot boys.
They clean up on the way out.
And you see him loading up into their
bus that they all travel in, the school bus that has been converted into the hot rod.
And as they're heading out, the dragon lands
that you saw Sergeant Salamander leave at the beginning of all this.
G.
Lancey is just, hey, boys, I'm back.
I hope everything went smoothly.
Have you guys seen Madam Actual Butterfly?
I think you'd love it.
Is this place clean?
Are we like is it if our parents come home after throwing a party, are we getting trouble?
How are we feeling right now, cleanliness-wise?
Yeah, so I would say, looking around at this point,
you have repaired as much as you can the security room without like a full-blown, you know, repair team in here.
There's been some damage to the panel.
But besides that, it's pretty clean.
Cool.
You're feeling pretty good.
Did I miss it?
You guys make sure to take Mud Puppy out and feed him and everything, right?
We did, sir.
We are we also expected we received an unexpected attack from
hair dryer and what 40 of his cronies.
the boys
yeah that's them oh what dastardly deed did that dry no
good guy do
farted farted up a storm in your big office farted
so much old clinic farted in my office and we and we were like yuck dude we were like no way man he tried to make it to your office is what happened sir he did a little squat little roadie run into your office and he said i run like this so i can blast off in the office he has to work in he made it he made it to your office he showed up with 40 of his minions so he could get in my office and fart
among other dastards that's just like him yeah weird uh but we finished off the attack handily um and i i don't believe there is any damage that remains to the the property server Well, I mean, I can see right there that my security panel's been cut open too, and somebody like Blowtorched open my door.
Right, so here's what I want to suggest.
I would like to become a fully fledged member of the Amphiba Force.
Oh, I see.
Otherwise, the insurance will not cover this damage.
Wait a minute.
Did you guys fix the oven?
That is just one of the many services I stand ready to provide as a full member of the Amphiba Force, sir.
Oven, repair, HVAC,
analysis, not service.
It's complex, those are, but I can tell you usually what's wrong with them.
I see.
Can I discreetly grab the security footage that's been recording this encounter?
Yeah, give me...
How sneaky are you?
I mean, not very, but I don't know how sneaky I need to be.
I'm going into the office where Hair Dryer was locked and the farts happened, right?
Yeah, as it will forever be known.
I'll say.
I'll just be in the room where farts happen.
Isaiah, oh, I'm going to go light that candle real quick.
And I'll go into the security office.
Yeah, okay, that's reasonable.
He's pretty distracted talking with Lawrence.
Sure, sure.
We really need a hacker on this team.
You guys keep saying you're going to be like the technology guy, but then it never really comes through.
So do you still want me to roll or can I just grab?
I think I'm going to have you roll to like figure out the system.
You know what I mean?
To make sure you can grab whatever the recording device is.
I think it's recording onto like
CDRs and CDRW.
Amazing.
Great.
I'm going to just go ahead and guess that this is going to be one of our last rolls of this particular fiasco.
So I'm going to burn the rest of my time to shine dice.
So what am I rolling standard?
Am I using
your standard?
This is like an amp stand.
So what do you got in amps?
2d8?
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, I'm going to use my three other time to shine dice.
Okay.
So 5d8s.
That's four successes.
This is when the money works and it counts and we do a good job for the first time.
Okay, so you also had a double six in there.
So you had a cowabunga as well.
That's so many successes and a cowabunga.
What are you hoping to do with this footage?
I mean, with this role, I'm hoping I collect the footage and somehow I look cool in this fight as well as everyone else.
I'm thinking promotional material for RT.
I am thinking we have done some great work
since we first encountered
Carver in the museum, but I also think that our profile has not grown at all, and we still operate out of a corner booth in a half-demolished cafe.
Yeah, fair, fair.
And if we want to, I think just being here
has reminded Navy SEAL what it feels like to be in the headquarters of a place that is like...
Pretty set up, pretty well established, pretty well known,
which maybe wasn't as important to him before, but I think that this experience has kind of made him think like, what if the three of us had
a nice spot?
Yeah, so with not only Cowabunga, but four successes there, you collect the footage, all the footage you need.
And I'm going to say that when you do this project, you are able to cut together like a really
pretty convincing, efficient, everybody looks cool kind of program.
And I'm just going to good enough for those
things they show before the trailers and movie theaters
and local spots.
This is more going to be like late-night TV on
the USA network.
You might be able to get it on movies.
I mean,
do any of you know Maria Minudos in like a person?
Like, have an actual connection to her?
I know Maria Mununos.
All right.
I don't think so.
Yeah.
That one hits.
Hey, man,
if I have to stomach 10 of those at a suboptimal quality for the one that really slaps dad, I am fully, fully willing.
Nothing should slap dad.
I'm glad to hear that you are invested.
I start making mental notes of like how to ADR my own bad attempts at wood lighters
just to sort of make myself not look like a real goofus in this particular video.
Back out with
Lyle and Sergeant Salamander.
Sergeant Salamander says, you know what, Lyle,
right now, I'm not going to lie to you, don't got an open spot in the roster.
But I'm going to bump you up from like on call, you know, when needed to like alternate.
How's that sound?
Wow, I will
take it
for sure.
Okay, yeah, the next time Newt broods off on, you know, one of his retreats or
you know, essentially and takes another cooking class, we'll give you a call.
Come help us out.
Oh, fair enough.
All right.
Well, well, thank you.
I really appreciate it.
Thank you so much.
You're welcome.
Hey, did any of you eat or drink anything?
Like, did you pay your tab down at the Rainforest Cafe?
Because if not, they're going to charge your card.
Are the animatronic animals?
Is that count as buying them?
Can you just buy those?
Is that on my tab?
What happened to them?
Look to your right.
Oh, God.
See,
we gotta go.
The tree hits every time.
You head outside.
Another job well done with the security footage in hand.
Are you calling a car?
I guess you still have your rolybot, if you want to.
Oh, boy.
Hey, I want to thank you guys so much for your support in there.
You really paid attention to cleanliness in a way that I didn't genuinely expect.
So thank you, guys.
Yes.
We knew it was important to you.
Yeah, I gotta ask Lyle.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Don't you think these guys are maybe
taking advantage of you a little bit?
Maybe.
Oh,
for sure.
Yeah, absolutely.
Oh, okay.
I don't have,
I mean, I don't have medical insurance, and
I would just really like that.
So now I have it.
Because the alternate, you get it.
So I have it.
Are you sure about that?
I'm actually 100% sure.
I've spent hours researching this.
You know, I know a guy.
I know a guy named Dean Dean.
He's an insurance agent.
Now, he is the one who is, wait, chaotic neutral.
I don't have my chart with me.
So no, I think Neil Dean.
Neil Dean is the real estate guy.
Neil, Neil Dadine Tyson.
Well, there's three.
There's Neil Dean, Dean Neil, Dean Dean.
And then I'm going to say Dean, Didean, Dean, Dean.
Which leads into the theme song, Dean, De Dean, Dean, Dean.
Listen, Lyle, not for nothing, but I think you're better than just alternate.
And if it's just some benefits that you're doing all this for, we could get on, you know.
Aflak!
We could get on.
Yeah.
Oh, crap.
Hold on.
The Aflak duck, who is actually real in this world than what's incredibly evil.
Really, really evil.
Get out of here, Aflac Duck.
I think we could figure it out, man.
He's just not listening, man.
Aflak Duck, could we please have some privacy?
Please.
Sorry.
Aflak, are you looking for another clean member?
There's two of them now because they love doing it so much.
Wait a minute.
Aflak, are you a hacker?
Aflaker!
His name is Aflak.
It's not even jokes anymore.
It's just words sounds garbage.
Like, it's just...
This has got to be the end of the event.
We're good, Aflak Duck.
We've got to get going.
Okay.
Please leave us.
The Afflac ducks head off into the sunset.
They're actually called an A-flock.
I don't think there's two of them.
A-Flock.
Why are we stopping, man?
We're hot.
We are just hitting our stride now.
Hey, baby, tell me we're tracking on this.
That is when, Navy SEAL, your cell phone begins to ring.
Hey kids, Sergeant Salamander here with another amphibi fact from the Amphibi Force.
Cliffside coastlines are a beautiful natural wonder and a great place to bond with your family on vacation, but not a great place to fly a drone.
High coastal winds will smash that drone right into the cliffs, leaving sharp plastic debris on the rocky shore below.
That's a no bueno, Compadre.
Next time, leave that drone alone and leave your cliffs clean.
Ankles!
