Welcome to Escape This

0:03

Podcast, a show that's

0:05

a mix between tabletop

0:08

roleplaying and escape room

0:21

puzzles. We are back

0:23

with another guest Game Master episode. This

0:25

episode. I've read that episode too many

0:27

times. Twice is too many. Every episode

0:29

we have an audio escape

0:32

room, which usually we have guests come on and

0:34

play, but occasionally we have guests come

0:36

on and run for us. And yet somehow

0:38

I still don't get a day off out of this.

0:40

That's true. You still have to be

0:42

here doing the playing. This

0:45

episode we have returning for the nth

0:48

time. I don't know how many of these have you

0:50

done for us? We

0:52

have Scott and Em Weiss. Hello.

0:58

How many is this? Uh, wait,

1:02

it's something like that. I think it might be,

1:04

it might be five not counting

1:06

the streaming one that we get. That's true. There

1:08

was a live stream drawn. I think it's, I

1:11

think it's five. There you go. This will be

1:13

the fifth one. You are the reliable

1:15

well that we keep returning to. So

1:17

yeah, we're excited to play through another one

1:19

of your, of your rooms and people who've

1:21

seen the title will also know what we

1:24

know, which is just the title that this

1:26

room is going to be called pros and

1:28

cons. Now we don't know

1:31

who Dr. Dynamo is. So it'll

1:33

be interesting to see how that all works out.

1:36

We don't really need to speculate because we're about to play

1:38

it. What we will do is we'll ask the

1:40

same questions we always ask though, because you've been on a

1:42

few times, it's more of an update than a, than a

1:44

history. Uh, this is an escape

1:46

room podcast. Any updates to your escape room

1:49

experience? Uh, I don't know if Em, do

1:51

you want to go first? So I

1:53

mean, it's pretty similar. We both

1:55

went to Montreal over the

1:57

summer and we played through how my God, how many escape

1:59

rooms? We did eight

2:02

escape rooms on that trip.

2:04

I understand that Montreal seems to be one

2:07

of those places to go for escape rooms.

2:09

Let the Spirers do that on their tours.

2:12

Was this specifically an escape room trip or was it

2:14

just you were on a trip and you went, let's

2:16

get in as many escape rooms as we can on

2:18

the side. So we were at

2:20

the NPL convention. The National Puzzlers

2:22

League convention. There's an amazing experience by the

2:24

way, so let me plug that. You

2:27

will love it if you go. So

2:29

then the other element of this show is it's

2:31

escape rooms mixed with a sort of tabletop role

2:34

playing style and the updates

2:36

to tabletop role playing experience since last

2:38

year on. I wish. No, no tabletop

2:40

role playing for either of us. Just

2:42

just our usual board gaming that

2:44

we do on the regular. Well,

2:47

lovely. I think, Danny, are

2:49

you ready to play the game? I

2:51

hope I'm good to go. Last time

2:53

we recorded our guest room, I felt

2:56

incredibly rusty. And I solved it all.

2:58

You did. Sorry, I'm

3:00

hoping I can get something in this time. Well,

3:02

I think you just got to believe

3:04

in yourself. That's my advice. Belief

3:07

is for when, this proof. Well, in

3:09

that case, I think we're good to start. Is

3:12

there anything we should know before we begin

3:14

or are you ready to just jump us

3:16

right in? Just that you are canonically one

3:19

person. Nice. For this room. And

3:21

there's no need. We have a map eventually.

3:23

Oh, OK. Em's going to take

3:25

point. Let's jump right in. So

3:29

the date you've been anticipating since your

3:31

birthday several months ago, which

3:33

was a Milos escape room for those who

3:35

remember it, is finally here. It's

3:37

the annual comic convention. That's

3:40

exciting enough. But what makes this

3:42

one extra special is that

3:45

Carly's Flint who plays your favorite

3:47

superhero, Dr. Dynamo, is in attendance.

3:50

You're hoping that you can get them to sign

3:52

the packaging of the vintage action figure you brought.

3:56

Anyway, you are standing in the front of

3:58

an entryway to the main convention hall. On

4:01

one side of the entrance is a table

4:03

with a hand sanitizer station and a pilot

4:05

N95 mask. On

4:08

the wall is a large bulletin board. In

4:11

front of the entryway is a woman wearing

4:14

a security uniform. And now

4:16

it is up to you on what you would like to

4:18

explore. Okay

4:20

we have a hand watch station and

4:22

some masks. N95, are they

4:25

just giving those away? Let's

4:27

take as many as you can! Let's haunt them! Um,

4:31

well should we watch? We're good

4:33

people. I'll put a mask on and hand sanitize. Yeah

4:35

let's sanitize our hands and put on a mask. Take a spare

4:37

mask. So thank you for doing

4:39

your part to prevent disease. And when you take a

4:41

look at the mask, you note that the masks are

4:44

white with a pair of light blue

4:46

straps that go around your head. You

4:49

are sadly too familiar with them. Let's

4:52

see if I'm familiar enough to be able to draw one. Oh

4:57

no, it's looking super villainy already. While

5:00

you're drawing- This is- see Danny, this is the reason that

5:02

I end up taking the lead

5:04

on so many of these rooms is because when something gets said

5:06

I write down the word mask and then

5:09

I am prepared to ask another question and you

5:11

spend 10 minutes drawing a mask! And now you

5:13

don't get to ask any questions! It kind of

5:15

looks like a facehugger. So

5:19

you take the lead. I'm too nervous to

5:21

talk to people. I'm going to a bulletin board to

5:23

look like I know what I'm searching for.

5:25

Sure. So you take a look

5:27

at that board and the link to said

5:29

board is in the chat. Yeah, it's a

5:32

schedule of the events. Exactly.

5:34

You can look at this for ages and look like you know

5:36

what you're talking about. Alright, you belong

5:38

here when you're looking at the schedule. So

5:40

have a look at the schedule. It says

5:42

Comic Con Event Schedule. We've got almost everything!

5:46

Just a note, it's Comic Con. Not

5:48

a single word Comic Con. That's

5:50

fair. It is Comic Con. Do you want me

5:52

to say it like that every time? We've

5:54

got events every hour from 1 to 6pm. Danny,

5:58

would you like to swap off? You can read 1pm. Yeah,

6:00

yeah, sure. So at 1pm we've got

6:02

the Revengers is what this event is

6:05

called. And it is, talk

6:07

with your favourite heroes, Quiver, General Canada,

6:09

Bronze Person, the Onyx Bride, and the

6:11

Jolly Green Giant. I've heard of that

6:14

one. At

6:16

2pm, weirder stuff. You'll

6:18

love finding out the juicy secrets of the

6:21

Below Zone, where you meet the producers of

6:23

the quirky Not Flix series. Alright?

6:27

3pm contest of couches. Southernos?

6:31

Southernos? Southernos? Southernos.

6:36

It feels very Australian. Southernos.

6:38

Southernos. Bloody Southernos. Comes

6:40

to Comic-Con with maximum intensity. Join us

6:42

in a deep dive into the building

6:44

of this classic show and use what

6:46

you know on a tough quiz. I

6:48

don't know anything about it, and yet

6:51

I want it. Is this meant to

6:53

be like, Westeros became Southernos? Contest

6:56

of couches, Game of Thrones. 4pm,

6:59

the quick. He's the fastest

7:01

man in the world, and now he

7:03

has his own film. Will Barty Aldred

7:06

go back to the past to rescue

7:08

his mother Zora, or will he keep

7:10

the timeline intact? Find out in a

7:12

special Jumbo IMAX showing. To my understanding

7:14

from having not seen that, it is...

7:17

I'm not sure if there was time

7:19

travel or alternate dimensions, they seem to

7:22

go back and forth. Yeah, it seems like a very confused

7:24

movie. 5pm, Doctor

7:26

Why. Who zips

7:28

through history in his rhomboid box

7:30

with his companions, saving organisms and

7:32

visiting worlds, both aquatic and Jovian?

7:34

That's Doctor Why! Catch a look

7:36

at four upcoming shows. He's not Doctor

7:39

Why, he's just the Doctor. Doctor Why is

7:41

the name of the show. God, what a

7:43

bad Comic-Con. And

7:45

then 6pm, our banner refers to the Grim

7:47

Reaper. That's our

7:50

flag means death, I would assume. Who doesn't

7:52

enjoy a sexy pirate comedy? Get a

7:54

sneak peek at Season 2 of

7:56

this queer romantic series starring Tacky

7:58

Wisey in Waitini. as

8:03

captain's aid Now

8:05

hold on I didn't keep looking so yeah

8:08

only started properly paying attention At

8:10

contest of couches so revenge just seems

8:12

pretty fair now hold on

8:14

quiver. That's the general

8:17

Canada Okay, bronze person iron

8:19

man iron man onyx bride black with

8:21

a Angelica's giant

8:23

fair the Hulk okay I

8:26

don't know where you're getting these connecting from that my views

8:28

are totally different from what you're talking These are totally different

8:30

from what you're talking about of course. We do not want

8:32

to get food Hey,

8:35

everybody anyone hey hold on if you're a if

8:37

you're a Marvel executive listen to this sue

8:39

the wisest Sue them

8:41

right now. They're infringing

8:44

on your IP What's

8:47

the below zone what's we had a stuff the below zone? Um

8:51

we're the stuff the stranger things

8:53

stranger things the under What's

8:56

the upside down that way is that what it

8:58

was I think it's a while down.

9:01

Yeah I haven't we only watch the first season of stranger

9:03

things But

9:05

all right this seems like a bunch of

9:07

fun references that do not help us in the moment Maybe

9:10

we should talk to a security guard unless you think there's

9:12

a puzzle here Oh, they'll definitely be a

9:14

puzzle here, but perhaps not yet So

9:16

my experience with with Scott and M is correct. I think

9:18

there's gonna be any puzzles in this room at all I

9:21

don't think they like puzzles Should

9:24

we talk to a security guard you can't sure I talked to

9:26

the security guard I go up and I say Hey,

9:29

and then I walk past them. Oh Hold

9:32

on wait a second. Can I see your ticket?

9:35

Yes, and I produced the ticket that I

9:37

definitely have oh Thank

9:39

you See

9:42

no puzzles they hate them Punches

9:45

the ticket and There's

9:47

few punches a complicated pattern pattern of holes

9:49

in the ticket and then she said here

9:52

you go. Enjoy the con I'll be

9:54

here if you need anything and oh

9:56

you'll probably want a map. Hold

9:58

on a sec Alright,

10:00

so we have a map

10:02

of the facility now. Wonderful.

10:05

Oh, there's so many things. Wirecon's

10:07

so big. So we'll have entered from

10:09

this entryway, and we can see to our

10:12

left there's a kids area with

10:14

a bouncy house and face paint. To our

10:16

right is a larping area, beyond

10:18

which is first aid and a

10:21

card house. Oh. Is a card

10:23

house a house for cards or of cards? I

10:25

don't know, you'll have to check out and see. We'll have to check

10:27

it out, you're right. We just have a map. And then

10:29

there's water. Off to the left, a convenient

10:31

water station. And then above that in the

10:33

top left, a cosplay area.

10:37

A signing room, above which

10:39

is the security office. And

10:41

then vendors! All of the whole

10:43

top right corner is vendors. Custom

10:46

capes, miniatures, comic book vendors,

10:48

the whole shebang. I

10:50

like that the cosplay area and the larping area

10:52

have to be kept very far away from each other,

10:55

they do not get along. No.

10:57

Cosplay area is where you hang around in costumes,

10:59

larping area is where you hang around in costumes

11:01

and people occasionally hit you with sticks. And

11:04

they also say, this is no costume! This

11:07

is no costume, I truly am the

11:09

bronze person. This

11:13

is an interesting one, because we don't have a

11:15

problem yet. No, but we have a goal.

11:17

We have a goal which is to get something signed. So

11:19

let's add to the signing room. Yeah,

11:21

so you can go to the signing

11:23

room and the line is so long.

11:26

That matches my understanding of conventions in

11:28

the signing areas. But you

11:31

do not think that you can sneak past the

11:33

security guard that is by the entrance. But

11:36

hold on, there's a sign by the door, and it

11:38

says, priority entrance to

11:40

those in full Dr. Dynamo

11:42

costume. You have

11:45

the approximate color scheme in your

11:47

clothes, and at least you're wearing boots, but

11:50

you're missing the most defining aspects

11:52

of Dr. Dynamo's outfit. Maybe

11:54

you can improvise. Now

11:57

you said we had an action figure with us.

11:59

Can we have a look to get a

12:02

proper refresh on what the costume entails? Of

12:04

course, that is in the chat. And

12:06

then for reference, there's also a picture

12:08

of what you look like in

12:11

the chat in a second. OK, I didn't

12:13

expect a picture of ourselves. All right, let's have a

12:15

look at the toy first. It's called boring you. All

12:20

right, so we've got Dr. Dynamo there. Dr.

12:23

Dynamo has white goggles

12:25

with green eye

12:28

pieces and a blue strap. Intriguing.

12:30

And curly, big black

12:33

hair. Nice lilac cape. Very

12:35

purple outfit overall. A

12:37

red skirt. Boots that have

12:40

little lightning bolts on them.

12:43

Big DD on the shirt. Yep,

12:46

two big white breasts

12:50

drawn onto their shirt. And then

12:52

a staff with a lightning bolt. Yeah, that's probably

12:54

a key feature. Shall we look at boring you

12:56

to compare? Maybe we have a staff with a

12:58

lightning bolt. Let's have a look. Oh,

13:01

wow. We are quite uncanny. First

13:03

of all, we look

13:05

exactly like Dr.

13:07

Dynamo. We can walk through and

13:09

say I'm currently in my

13:12

more mortal form. Can we just

13:14

say, hey, I don't have my

13:16

costume on, but I'm clearly the

13:18

exact same character. That's wild. Oh,

13:20

Dr. Dynamo costume. No,

13:23

no substitutions allowed. We

13:25

say we have the purple clothes

13:27

in the skirt. We said it said our clothes basically match

13:29

the colouring anyway. We have the boots, but they're not labelled.

13:33

Now, my first thought, Danny,

13:36

is our mask was white with a blue

13:38

strap. It was. Is there any way to cut

13:40

it down till it looks like eyepieces and

13:42

wear them? Oh, yeah. Is there a

13:44

scissor station at the moment? I think that's labelled math.

13:47

Not sure. Maybe first aid. And I'll point

13:50

out that the goggles that Dr. Dynamo is

13:52

wearing are clearly goggle like they're not like

13:55

a mask or anything like that. They do seem to

13:57

stick out a bit. Okay, that's fair.

14:00

need the letters I assume we didn't happen

14:02

to be wearing a cape as well right

14:04

no right so need

14:06

a cape a belt we need I'm

14:08

gonna yeah I should I'm gonna make a list so we can tick

14:10

them off I did I did make oh you made the list okay

14:12

love off lightning shoes

14:15

nice goggles nice DD

14:18

yep and cape nice and we need a belt as

14:20

well a belt need a Sun

14:22

belt all right well we have a series of goals

14:24

I don't want to cover our eyes our

14:26

eyes look fancy and all of this just

14:28

to skip a line like we're better than

14:31

everybody else where would

14:33

you like to go first to achieve our

14:35

goals the first thing that I see

14:37

I don't know if this is efficient from

14:39

an escape from perspective but the first one that I see

14:41

there is a place that is called custom capes yeah

14:45

feels like we might get a cape you're right let's go to

14:47

the custom Cape vendor in the vendor section yeah

14:50

so you head over and you

14:52

study the keeps on display and

14:54

one of them is clearly a replica

14:56

of Dr. dynamos the provider

14:59

the booth comes over oh

15:01

you're a dr. dynamo fan yeah look

15:04

at the I am don't you can tell by looking

15:06

at me fortunately for you

15:08

we're running a contest to win that

15:11

Cape and no one has managed to

15:13

crack my password yet so

15:15

she can't do a piece of paper and that

15:18

piece of paper is in the chat this is

15:21

way better than con

15:23

prices okay so we

15:25

could win a cape we have a series

15:27

of classic very

15:32

crosswordy includes 2023

15:35

movie six fictional character 410 that

15:38

is a fancy one right yeah

15:40

I think that's what I'm sacred object

15:42

for five TV show seven five

15:44

world leader six five those

15:47

feel very broad as far

15:49

as topics go right now

15:51

hmm he's going to be

15:53

solvable as is or are we going to

15:56

have to look around

15:59

for bits and pieces You

16:01

see, you are flicking from the event schedule

16:03

because it mentions so many pop culture things and

16:06

seeing if there's anywhere that

16:09

you can find crossover. Like

16:12

weirder stuff for a TV

16:14

show? Yeah, TV show 7-5 is

16:17

could be weirder stuff that is a TV show. So

16:19

it could be doing the right thing. Do

16:21

we have a- should we- see if we can find all these on

16:23

the Comic Con event schedule? I'm not sure if we can find all

16:25

of them but it's worth taking a look. So

16:28

like, 2023 movie, presumably a 6-letter 2023 movie,

16:30

it's not the quick. No,

16:35

but that was movie. But yeah, maybe we'll see

16:37

more. Maybe, yeah, there's not

16:39

a full like obvious these things match

16:41

just to that event schedule. No,

16:44

I wouldn't think so. Okay, well we'll leave this open I

16:46

guess. But I like weirder stuff. Because

16:48

yeah, world leader I haven't seen any particular reference,

16:51

so world leaders yet I don't think. Barack

16:53

Obama. Uh-huh, uh-huh. Look, it could

16:56

be. It fits. It does. Barack

16:59

Obama. Okay, yeah,

17:01

I'm not quite sure. Sacred objects 4-5. How about fictional

17:03

characters? Should we look for a fictional character that's 4-5?

17:05

Holy Grail is a sacred object. That's true. That's

17:08

4-5. It could be.

17:10

Fictional character, I mean, 410, that's probably

17:12

a lot. Well yeah, that's why I

17:14

wanted to look at the event schedule particularly just to find

17:16

out. But off

17:19

the top of my head, everyone has very reasonable numbers of

17:21

letters. Yeah. Alright,

17:24

we'll hold off. Yeah, we'll hold off I think.

17:26

Sadly, slink away and say we do not have

17:28

your prerequisite knowledge just yet. Yeah. We

17:31

say, oh, we've solved these but we'll give other people a chance

17:33

to win the cape first. We don't want to be rude. Oh,

17:36

sure. That sounds nice of you,

17:38

I think. Awesome. Okay,

17:40

so we've got a cape puzzle but I'm

17:42

not quite sure if we need more info. Mm-hmm.

17:46

Where else do we want to go next? Well, I

17:48

don't see how water would help us, but I don't see how

17:50

it wouldn't help us. Face paint area,

17:52

we might just be able to paint the

17:54

DD on our shirt. Oh,

17:57

that's fun. Not impossible. But maybe

17:59

we should take a break in. bounce for a while

18:01

first. Let's head to the kids area and then

18:04

if we need to specify we can go to the bounce house just

18:06

for fun. Okay. So

18:08

you head over to the kids area

18:10

and there are a lot of kids

18:12

running around. Oh really? Except

18:14

for one who seems to be pouting in

18:17

the corner but there are two

18:19

stations that catch your attention. There's the

18:21

face paint station and an inflatable

18:23

bouncy house. Do we have

18:25

moral responsibility to nod

18:28

an acknowledgement to the sad kids? No moral responsibility

18:30

but he's probably got a piece of a puzzle. Let's go talk

18:32

to that sad kid. Yep. So

18:35

you head over to the kids. What are you saying? Hey

18:39

kid. This is a world of pure

18:41

imagination. Why are you so sad? Oh

18:44

well. Thanks for asking. I want to

18:46

get my face made up to look

18:48

like bronze person but the lady at the

18:50

face painting station doesn't know what they look

18:52

like. They're bronze. It's

18:54

easy. They just put bronzer on.

18:58

We'll fix this for you. Okay don't worry. Leave it

19:00

to us. How

19:02

good are we at painting? We don't need to paint

19:05

bronze person. I wonder if we

19:07

could go back to the miniatures section or

19:09

the comic book vendors to find a reference

19:11

image of bronze person. That's fair.

19:13

Shall we do that? Well I don't want to

19:15

just jump back and forth following one quest right now. I

19:17

want to get a bit more of a holistic view. Alright

19:20

well then let's have a look at the bouncy house while we're here.

19:23

So you head over to the bouncy house

19:25

and it is a pretty realistic replica of

19:27

Castle White Famer. Kids are

19:29

diving in and out of it and the

19:31

person at the entrance is doing his best

19:34

to maintain order. You look

19:36

through the plastic windows and you notice something in

19:38

the corner. A belt just

19:40

like Dr. Dynamo wears. How does

19:42

it get there? It doesn't

19:44

matter. You just need to get it. Can

19:47

we bounce over and steal it? Are we allowed to bounce? Can

19:49

we take our boots off and bounce over and steal it? Although

19:52

someone's going to steal our boots. Can we

19:54

take our boots off and hold them under our arm

19:56

and then bounce over and steal it? We are also

19:58

not a child. Can we? Can we? We squat down,

20:00

take our boots off, put them under our arm, say,

20:03

Excuse me, I'm a big baby! And

20:05

then jump over and steal it. The

20:08

man looks at you and says, You're not

20:10

a kid. Kids only, you're not

20:12

gonna fit in there. Alright, happy

20:14

kid equals belt. We gotta cheer up a child

20:16

so he can steal us a belt. You

20:19

like my castle white femur? Perfect.

20:23

This is why you draw. Hehehe.

20:26

Hey, if you're listening to

20:28

this, whoever owns the IP for the

20:30

Masters of the Universe, Sue the Wysons.

20:34

It's not, what are you talking about? It's

20:37

castle white femur. I don't even

20:39

know what franchise you're talking about.

20:41

It's He-men, Castle Grayskull. I

20:43

knew what franchise we were talking about. They're gonna lie to

20:45

me then. You can be mean,

20:48

you're gonna edit it while we say

20:50

the sound of the human. Grayskull. Put

20:52

in Grayskull. Yeah,

20:56

you just said the word Grayskull. That's going in

20:59

every time now. I'm gonna edit into

21:01

you just like, It's Castle Grayskull, an

21:03

IP that I own. Ha

21:06

ha, got him. Okay,

21:09

so first of all, I think we need to go over

21:11

to the sad kid. And we'll say, hey kid,

21:14

we're gonna fix your problem. But in

21:16

return, once we do, once you're

21:18

all bronzed up. We're

21:21

recruiting you. You gotta steal us a

21:23

belt, alright? You like superhero stuff. Sounds

21:25

fair to me. We'll have a

21:27

deal. We've got you in our notes, we'll come

21:29

back to you. Do you wanna

21:31

check out? It's how Nick Fury works. He just has

21:33

to make them a little bit happy and then they join

21:35

him. Exactly. I

21:38

don't think we need to talk to the face paint person. Cause I

21:40

can't, cause I imagine it would just be, I don't know what it

21:42

looks like and then we'll go and get reference anywhere. But do you

21:44

wanna talk to them first? Probably worth

21:46

seeing if there's anything else we should know. Yeah,

21:49

maybe. That might not just be about this child. You're right, okay.

21:51

Let's go over and go to the face painting area. Yeah,

21:53

so the teenager that is stopping the station

21:56

looks pretty bored. She doesn't

21:58

have any customers right now and there's. when

22:00

sitting in her chair. Alright, this is a

22:02

dead end. I say, hey, teenager.

22:05

Yeah? You don't know what bronze person

22:07

looks like? Look, I'm totally at a loss

22:09

about comic books or superheroes. This is just

22:11

a temp gig. I am pretty good

22:13

at face painting though, if I can see a picture of what I'm supposed

22:16

to be painting. Okay, you need a picture.

22:18

Would you prefer a picture or a small scale model of

22:20

the thing that you need to be painting? Uh,

22:22

picture's fine. Yeah, okay, cool. We'll

22:25

get you a picture. Faces are too day, so,

22:27

makes sense. Okay, uh, see

22:30

you soon. There must be like

22:32

80 bronze people walking around

22:34

here. None of them coming into the kids

22:36

area. No, after the scandal on Twitter,

22:38

no one's dressing as bronze person anymore.

22:43

Kids just too innocent. You should have

22:45

seen what bronze person posted in character. It's

22:47

not good. Um, okay,

22:50

do we want to go try and find a picture of bronze person? Yeah,

22:52

makes sense. We'll go back to the vendor area. Yeah,

22:55

can we get to where the comic books are

22:57

at the vendor area? So, you

22:59

wander past books with boxes of comics that

23:01

are eagerly being pawed through by fans. One

23:04

book is a little less crowded, so you're supposed to take

23:06

a look. It has a

23:08

set of five almost 40 year old

23:10

comics on display, and they are classics.

23:13

So, those covers are now in the chat. Oh,

23:16

that sounds like they're expensive. Comic

23:18

book covers. Ooh, it's like a little slide show.

23:21

Alright, there are five of these. Do you want to

23:23

swap off the picture? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Alright, you can

23:25

do number one. Oh, okay, so this is bronze

23:27

and friends. This feels like a goldmine for what we

23:29

need already. And it's got

23:31

bronze man. There is a

23:33

train track, a train running along this train track, a

23:36

nice glass of gold steam train. But

23:38

there is a very substantial hole in

23:40

the track. And

23:42

bronze man, I assume. Bronze

23:44

person. Bronze person. Bronze person, you're

23:46

right. It just says bronze on

23:48

the cover, I forgot. It says,

23:51

we need to get the league together

23:53

to fix this. That

23:55

is looking like they caused the problem,

23:58

right? Their

24:00

face says this is all going according to

24:02

plan. That's why no one wants to be

24:04

Bronzed versus... Yeah, no one knows what the

24:06

Bronzed versus is. Like, you know

24:08

they just keep crashing trains? Look,

24:11

it was issue number two. They hadn't entirely

24:14

worked out where they wanted this character to

24:16

go. True, Sardis and Anti-Hero. Next one

24:18

is the February 1985

24:21

issue number two of Buzzthead,

24:23

and it's featured a B, putting

24:26

a little purple person into jail.

24:29

A one-eye- a purple cyclops is going to

24:31

jail. They've been buzzed. Now I don't see

24:33

a horn, so it's not the purple people either.

24:35

Not just a random little purple person.

24:39

Uh... Okay, we're

24:41

at January 1985 issue number six

24:43

for Cape Tales. We've

24:45

got a couple of caped

24:47

crusaders flying around,

24:50

and a

24:52

very sad looking sheep with

24:55

a bomb strapped to it. Or

24:57

the sheep is the bomb, and it's just got a

24:59

timer strapped to it. Either way. And

25:02

um, what is that on the ground next

25:04

to the sheep? Discarded wool? No

25:06

cap. A little rock? A little rock.

25:09

Could be. Anyway, the one in the bluer

25:11

cape says, it's about to go off. And

25:13

the pink cape person is saying, uh... And

25:17

the sheep has a speech bubble, but it's a sheep,

25:20

so it's empty. I read the dialogue

25:22

of this cover before I interpreted it

25:24

that there was a bomb on the sheep. So

25:26

I just thought they were like, saying, oh man,

25:28

it's gonna get real cool and it's gonna get

25:30

real hectic, this party is about to

25:33

go off. Eighty slang. I just, that's what

25:35

I thought. Next

25:37

there is a May

25:39

1985 issue, number three,

25:42

e-crew saves the day. There

25:45

are two... Wait, no,

25:47

that'd be one ton, right? Two thousand pounds is one

25:49

ton? I don't know. I think that's one

25:51

ton. I totally don't know. And it

25:53

is falling onto a woman

25:56

with an E on their

25:58

stomach. in

26:01

an orange dress with a blue cape who

26:03

says, don't worry about me, catch the bad

26:05

guy but their face says, please worry about

26:07

me oh my god, I'm facing

26:10

my mortality two thousand pounds, they're

26:12

about to crush me You're already

26:14

doing a lot better at interpreting

26:16

this because obviously that is a

26:18

weight of some sort about to fall on them

26:20

but it doesn't look like a sign labelling them

26:22

has been two thousand pounds I thought it was

26:25

a sign, but the down arrows made

26:27

me assume that they were standing on some

26:29

sort of scale and have massive weight manipulation

26:32

powers and they just made everything

26:34

weigh two thousand pounds less I love it

26:37

Not quite as scary though No Doesn't

26:40

explain the distress expression And then the

26:42

final one Danny? Oh nice, I love

26:44

it March 1995, issue 10, this one's

26:46

called Origin Stories It's a purple

26:49

crab person Well

26:51

not firing, but holding, threateningly, laser

26:53

gun at administrative

26:56

worker with a bank, you

26:58

know, a dollar sign bag beside them and

27:02

purple crab is saying, drat, it

27:04

isn't a hit and

27:06

administrative worker is saying, eeee There's

27:11

a splat beside them as if the person

27:13

has missed them Oh I see,

27:15

that's what it is Okay so it's not so laser-y They're

27:17

saying drat, it isn't a hit because they've missed

27:19

Yeah, yeah Or the

27:21

bag of money is for a recording deal And

27:24

they did a song and this person is an admin

27:27

of the record company but it turned out it wasn't

27:29

a hit so this person has come back angrily

27:31

to shoot them Intriguing,

27:34

intriguing So obviously we

27:36

can try and get one of these to get a picture of bronze

27:38

and friends Yeah it feels like immediately bronze and friends

27:40

But why would there be four other

27:42

things unless they were relevant? Yeah Or

27:45

maybe to make this unrelevant, as

27:47

they say And these, the dates

27:50

really strike me as having been chosen for a

27:52

reason So I wondered if it was like, oh

27:54

issue six, we need to pick the sixth word

27:56

and then put them in chronological order by release date

27:59

and that will spell something for us. Well let's do

28:01

that as well. Why not? That's a fun little puzzle. April

28:04

1985, issue two would be the second letter

28:06

of Bronz and Friends is R. Oh, you

28:08

were going with titles and letters. I

28:10

was going with dialogue and words. Oh

28:13

yeah, or need. Okay, let's go need. So,

28:16

then need. We

28:19

have February 1985, so that's earlier.

28:23

But this one's not saying anything. It's gonna say Ted.

28:25

Yeah, it's just gonna say Ted. Number

28:27

two is the Ted of Buzztet. Ted need. We've

28:30

got issue number six, January

28:33

1985, so that's even earlier. It's

28:36

about to go off. That would be... Okay,

28:38

this doesn't feel like it's anything,

28:40

but we'll just check. So far we have er,

28:43

Ted need. It's not impossible. May,

28:46

so it's after

28:48

April, and it's issue

28:51

number three, which is about...

28:53

Yeah, it's not convincing. I

28:55

don't think it's the dialogue. And

28:58

then... Yeah, there aren't ten

29:00

words. Okay, so

29:02

maybe we go letters. Alright,

29:04

try the January. January.

29:06

Issue number six is the A in

29:08

Cape Tales. Why not? February.

29:12

Issue number two is the U. A

29:15

U. Those letters do go together sometimes. In

29:17

Buzz Ted. Um, those

29:19

are March? March. Issue number ten is one,

29:21

two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

29:24

Ah. It's an R in origin. This is

29:26

so believable. Then April,

29:28

issue number two is R again. Mmm.

29:32

And then issue number three is R. It's

29:37

a lot of R. So it's either, er,

29:39

Ted, blank, need about. Or it's

29:41

R, or we should not try and do these

29:43

puzzles, so we should just buy Bronze and Friends.

29:48

I say, excuse me, vendor, may I purchase Bronze and

29:50

Friends from you? Oh, that's a great choice. That'll be

29:52

$5,000. Yeah, seemed as much. Hey,

29:56

vendor, what's that behind you? The

29:59

wall. Damn, he

30:01

already knows. Five thousand

30:03

dollars? Can I just borrow it for a second? I just need to

30:05

make a kid happy. Five thousand

30:07

dollars? I'd like to just walk away with it. Why

30:10

do you need it? Well, there's

30:12

a person who's painting kids' faces who doesn't know

30:14

what bronze- can I just have a picture of

30:16

Bronze Man? Do you have any other pictures

30:18

of Bronze Man? Ah, sure. Just

30:21

takes his name, digs out, pulls

30:24

out an old comic cover and

30:26

hands it to you. Awesome. That solved

30:28

my problem. Does it? Just

30:30

make sure. Does it look like Bronze Man? Bronze

30:34

Person. Bronze Person, yes.

30:38

Use your phone and take a picture of it. I

30:41

considered that, but I thought if these

30:43

are such amazing artworks as to be

30:45

worth five thousand dollars, they might not

30:47

like flash photography. Alright,

30:50

brilliant. Thank you. Bye.

30:53

Bye. And we can leave. That

30:55

makes it seem like there's definitely a puzzle. Ah,

30:57

Ted, need about her? Um, okay.

31:02

Well, can we take a picture back to the

31:04

person who does the face painting? Yeah.

31:07

I say, keep this with

31:09

you for the moment. I'm going to bring you a child.

31:11

Ah. Okay,

31:15

sure. I'm a

31:18

little sketchy, sorry. Alright. Can we

31:20

bring them- shall we bring the child? Well,

31:22

let the child bring themselves. No, we pick up the

31:25

child and we pop them down to the seat. Now

31:27

you have the security after you. Alright.

31:33

Yep, you have the kid in the chair and- Paint

31:36

me a Bronze Person of

31:38

this child. So

31:41

yeah, in a few minutes, she

31:43

has a pretty good replica of

31:45

Bronze Person's face on

31:48

the child's face. Alright,

31:50

thank you. He says. Now, what

31:53

did you say you needed from me? Yeah, kid. Don't

31:55

forget our part of the plan. You're in now. You're

31:57

in now. We need you

31:59

to bounce. kid. Just

32:02

go in the bouncy house, that's it? And

32:04

you see in there there's a belt hanging

32:06

up in the corner. We need you to

32:08

steal that belt, it's a heist. Um,

32:11

okay. You say

32:13

so. You must bring me, take

32:16

any other treasures you want, but the belt

32:18

is mine. I'm glad this

32:20

kid understood that when he said you gotta

32:22

bounce you didn't mean leave. Yeah, go right. So,

32:26

the kid nears his eyes at you,

32:28

but he goes inside the bouncy house

32:30

and a few minutes later

32:32

you're a little worried he's just not gonna come out,

32:35

but he does come out eventually with the belt and

32:37

just throws it at you and then goes back inside

32:39

the bouncy house. So now

32:41

you have a belt. I'm gonna take that

32:43

off. The belt is fairly elastic, so

32:46

it'll fit easily around your waist and

32:48

it's the perfect replica of Dr. Diamond.

32:50

Perfect. Perfect belt attained.

32:53

One out of six. Where would you

32:55

like to go next? What do you think the next good step is? We

32:58

are definitely attaining pieces

33:00

of puzzles. It feels like we've done the

33:02

whole kid's area. I reckon

33:05

if anyone's gonna have a staff with a lightning bolt on

33:07

it, it's the lappas. Okay, that's fair. So

33:09

let's head to the lapping area and see if

33:12

we can spy anything that looks appropriate for our

33:14

costume. Yep, so you head over to the

33:16

lapping area and there is a woman

33:18

wearing dark, glowing robes and she is standing in the

33:20

middle of a crowd of people. She's

33:23

holding a tall staff with a

33:25

lightning bolt on top and that

33:27

is definitely a Dr. Diamond staff.

33:29

Check it out. What a coincidence.

33:32

Anyways, a man in the tunic stands up. To

33:35

win the staff of destiny,

33:38

you must defeat our champion.

33:41

The challenger will give a word of

33:44

power and the champion

33:46

will respond. The

33:49

one with the winning word gets

33:51

the staff. Remember, there

33:54

are three different kinds of power,

33:56

each counteracting another. Do we brave

34:00

challengers. I put my

34:02

hand up. Several hands shoot up and he does

34:04

not choose you. I'm so

34:06

sorry. I kill them all. Okay, no place.

34:09

Let's observe what happens. So

34:11

he picks a random person that's

34:13

not you. My

34:15

word is Rapskallion.

34:18

The champion laughs at the challenger. Mine

34:21

is Bully. B-U-L-L-Y.

34:24

The champion wins.

34:27

So the referee chooses another one of

34:29

the hands? Well, I'll

34:31

use Bully then. And

34:34

the champion is very unimpressed. Well,

34:36

my word is Selfless.

34:39

S-E-L-F-L-E-S-S. Win

34:42

for the champion and no more

34:44

word reuse in this competition. So another

34:47

one, the sixth? Parsnip. Champion

34:49

snares. Rudebega.

34:54

Victory for the champion. And

34:58

then the next person? How

35:00

about Cat?

35:02

The referee says. That is

35:04

not a word of power. You are disqualified.

35:06

And the cow boos at this.

35:09

Boo, boo. You suck, idiot. Intriguing.

35:11

I choose Timon. T-I-M-O-N.

35:18

The champion shouts. False

35:20

staff. F-A-L-S-T-A-F-F.

35:24

Another win for the champion.

35:26

Another competitor confidently yells.

35:30

My word is Roach. R-O-A-C-H.

35:34

And someone nearby murmurs. Ooh, a

35:36

double word of power. Ooh. The

35:40

champion smirk. Well, my

35:43

double word is Eagle. E-A-G-L-E.

35:47

The champion is victorious. And

35:50

now there are no more hands in the

35:52

crowd. Everyone is scared of the champion. So

35:55

the champion raises her staff. Is

35:57

there no one wise enough to

35:59

truly? challenge me the person

36:02

next to you whispers only

36:04

a triple word of power will

36:06

be enough to defeat her so

36:08

just to just to review

36:11

what happened rapscallion was

36:14

defeated by bully bully

36:16

was defeated by selfless parsnip

36:18

was defeated by rutabaga how

36:20

do you spell rutabaga? R-U-T-A-B-A-G-A?

36:25

What did you have? I have

36:27

an E. Okay,

36:30

cat was not a word of

36:32

power Timon was defeated by Falstaff

36:35

and the double word roach was defeated

36:37

by the double word eagle. Let

36:40

us discuss what we think the rules of this game are.

36:42

My first thought when I saw double words

36:44

I was like oh roach has two vowels

36:46

together as does eagle but so

36:49

did rapscallion and

36:51

that was not a double word. That's

36:53

true. Whereas all I could think of when

36:55

looking at roach was oh yeah that's got two

36:57

pairs of letters that like work together to make

36:59

their sounds but that

37:02

doesn't do much either I don't think. Hmm.

37:05

Oh man what are we seeing

37:07

here? I mean eagle sort

37:09

of does. And I'll point

37:11

out that you're welcome to give

37:14

words to try to challenge the champion

37:16

and see what happens. This

37:18

is true. I think there's still a little

37:20

time to dissect what we've had but we

37:23

know your options. Yeah cat is

37:25

not a word of power. What is cat

37:28

missing that all these other words have? Yeah

37:31

what does bully have that cat doesn't? What

37:33

does eagle have that cat doesn't? You got

37:35

something? No I don't. I went like

37:37

rapscallion has a double letter, bully has

37:39

a double letter, selfless has multiple

37:42

letters that are doubled and

37:44

parsnip has two P's, rudabaga

37:46

has lots of A's but

37:50

Timon doesn't have any doubles so

37:53

the doubles are not required. There's no

37:55

and obviously roach doesn't that's somehow a double word

37:57

of power. It's wrongly

38:01

It is not about anagrams, because cat

38:03

can be anagrammed out the wazoo. By

38:06

which I mean there's at least one I can see straight away. Which

38:08

is act. Yeah I was definitely looking

38:10

for shorter words within them, but cat

38:13

can still technically do that. Not

38:15

a very long word inside it. But.

38:18

It's as good as Timon having

38:20

on and I'm. Selfless

38:23

is better than bully, but bully is better than rapscallion.

38:26

Rotten and bully both have a double L, but

38:28

then selfless also has two L's.

38:30

And then a double F. And a

38:32

double, well yeah and double S and a double E. Lots

38:35

of lots of two letters. But it wasn't shocking

38:38

as a double word of power. No.

38:40

Roach and Eagle were, and I don't know what

38:43

is special about them. Do

38:45

you want to say a random word and say what it is? Like

38:47

cat was not a word of power whatsoever. What if

38:49

we challenged with dog? Because then

38:51

we'll get disqualified if we're wrong. No no we were just

38:53

told we can fail if we need to. We'll

38:56

just tell our neighbor to do it. Yeah let's

38:58

let's go to our neighbor and say hey say dog. It's

39:01

a secret strategy. Say dog. Okay. Um.

39:04

Dog? That is not a word

39:06

of power. Boo boo. You idiot.

39:09

Shame. Don't

39:14

worry man we're building something. Okay dog is

39:16

not a word of power. No it's fair

39:18

enough. What about. What

39:21

hog? It's like dog. We go up

39:23

to someone else and we say hey hey hey lady

39:25

say warthog. Trust me. Trust

39:27

me. You do it. No no no say it. They

39:29

don't trust you after what you did. What do

39:31

you mean I didn't do anything that weird guy said dog like an idiot.

39:33

Oh well I feel like he just told me that he told him to

39:35

say that so. No

39:42

no no you missed here. Alright

39:44

where's our child prodigy. Yeah let's get that kid

39:46

from the bath house and say hey you are

39:48

the favor say warthog. Alright we'll say

39:50

warthog and we'll fail. Alright. I

39:53

say warthog. That is not

39:55

a word of power. Check the

39:57

rules. It is. Hey,

40:00

check in the rules. It is not a word of

40:02

power, boo! Power?

40:06

And there were, yeah, three kinds of power, whatever they

40:08

may be. Oh yeah, there are three kinds

40:10

of power. Are they just... three

40:13

letters that are allowed? Seems

40:16

unlikely. And

40:18

then a double word of power has two of those

40:20

letters in it? So eagle

40:23

and roach have... The

40:26

L, I think, must be a letter of power.

40:30

If that is the case, right? Because bully had the

40:32

Ls. But it also... no,

40:34

but that can't be true. Because

40:37

otherwise, the only way for bully

40:39

to beat rapscallion, or

40:41

for selfless to beat bully, would

40:44

be to have more of

40:46

the letter of power. I

40:49

would assume. Why else would bully

40:51

beat rapscallion? It can't be like L is

40:53

powerful, because rapscallion has two

40:55

Ls. Unless it's like, oh, it's more powerful, but

40:57

if you have fewer letters to get that power,

40:59

it's better. But then selfless beats bully. So... I'm

41:02

not quite sure. It feels like

41:05

there's a lot of information here, and I'm just

41:07

not pausing any of it, because my brain's not

41:09

working. Yeah, it's one of those ones where

41:11

it's like, we've got so much to

41:13

think about. Is it to do

41:15

with semantic meanings of words? Probably not, because

41:18

some animals are fine and others aren't. Is

41:20

it to do with what letters they use?

41:23

Maybe there are three types of letters that are

41:25

acceptable, but it's hard to then determine what winning

41:27

is. And there's...

41:29

I mean, they all have letters. It's

41:32

hard to come up with 26 different one-letter words to

41:34

see which ones are going to be words of power.

41:37

Is it to do with length of word?

41:40

Not always... or

41:42

not in a clear way, where shorter words beat

41:44

longer words. Somehow, roach is

41:46

a double word of power. What

41:49

could roach double? There are similar

41:52

words to roach that we could just try throwing out

41:54

to see what changes. Like, say, what

41:56

if we just yell the word ranch? Or

41:59

coach? Do you want to

42:01

see what happens? I guess. What

42:03

is coach? The

42:05

champion thinks for a second. My

42:09

word is torrent.

42:12

T-O-R-R-E-N-T. Win

42:16

for the champion. Torrent

42:18

beats coach. But coach was acceptable. Coach

42:21

is a word of power. Coach going

42:23

to roach is a difference between a single and

42:25

a double word of power. Roach

42:27

is single. Roach is double. Torrent

42:31

beats coach. It scores

42:33

higher on the word

42:35

of power system. Just a reminder that you

42:37

said that there are three different kinds of

42:39

power, each counteracting another. Oh, that's

42:41

right. It's like a scissor paper rock. I

42:44

was thinking scissor paper rock was that, but still not.

42:46

So is it letters, but certain letters beat

42:49

other letters? We had one thing in our

42:51

word, and it was beaten by

42:53

torrent. Now the thing

42:55

that changed is that if it is letters, right,

42:57

that makes R a letter of power.

43:01

But then what didn't count, so it can't be just

43:03

R. Okay, R is not a letter of power. There's

43:05

not letters of power. So R

43:07

is irrelevant. But if you get rid of an

43:10

R from Roach to make it coach, it

43:12

is now lost one of its stages

43:14

of power. So how does that

43:16

make any sense? It can't be about the letters,

43:18

it feels. R

43:21

to C loses power, but R is not

43:23

powerful, nor is C powerful. But

43:26

R itself does not make something a letter

43:28

of word of power, because

43:30

starting with R is powerful.

43:33

Like rapscallion started with R. Yeah,

43:36

I considered that. I was

43:39

trying to think, oh yeah, like if we're talking scissor

43:41

paper rock, hey, that starts with R, like rock. But

43:44

I can't make things out

43:46

of that with many of them. And

43:49

there's only three types, but there's been more

43:51

than three starting letters. So I think perhaps

43:53

starts with R might be its own thing.

43:56

That's the power that Rudebager, Rapscallion,

43:58

Roach all have. Maybe. Cat

44:02

was not a word of power. Can

44:04

we try rat? The champion says, my

44:07

word is stack. Win

44:10

for the champion. SCACK,

44:12

by the way. So yeah. Ah, definitely

44:15

good. Starts with R.

44:17

Definitely. Has been beaten by bully and

44:19

by stack. Is there any similarity? Any

44:22

eagle? Yeah, but

44:24

eagle is a double, so I didn't want to engage

44:26

too much with that because one

44:28

part of eagle might be beating right. Is

44:31

there anything that is similar between bully and

44:34

stack? What about bull?

44:37

It's not bully, it's just bull. Not

44:39

a word of power. What about pulley, but

44:41

that's got an EY at the end. Not

44:43

a word of power. Okay, so bull is a

44:45

word of power. A bully is a word of power,

44:48

right? But not bull or pulley. The

44:50

fact that it has a B, a U, an

44:52

L, an L, and a Y all irrelevant because

44:54

none of those make a word of

44:56

power. The fact that it is two syllables, irrelevant.

44:58

The fact that it starts with B, irrelevant. The

45:00

fact that it ends with Y, irrelevant. The

45:03

fact that it rhymes with anything

45:05

possible, irrelevant. Yeah, someone in

45:07

the audience raises their hand and says, I

45:09

try bulls. B-U-L-L-S.

45:14

Hmm. The champion says, my

45:16

word is cardiac. C-A-R-D-I-A-C.

45:20

It looks like five letters is something. Five

45:24

letters is greater than R. Eagle

45:26

and Roach were both five letters long. They

45:29

were doubles because one started with an R and then whatever

45:31

Eagle is. Bully is five letters. Cat

45:34

is not. Dog is not. Coach

45:37

is. Which is why it was still a word of power. The

45:40

only thing it had was being five letters long. It

45:42

was beaten by whatever torrent has, which we haven't figured out

45:44

yet. My only other thing is. But Dak

45:46

and Cher, both five letters long, beat whatever starts with R.

45:48

Things that start and end with the same letter. Torrents.

45:52

They've been doing all right. Eagle. Okay,

45:54

start and end. So we need

45:57

something that starts with R, is five letters

45:59

long and... starts and ends with the

46:01

same letter, presumably, ah, ah,

46:04

like... An American rumour.

46:07

Yeah, but we're not going to stoop to that. That's

46:09

a six-letter word. Uh,

46:12

Rotor? Rotor, that's fine.

46:15

Yeah. We'll go for Rotor. The

46:18

champion opens your mouth and closes it. She

46:20

frowns. A triple word

46:22

of power. I cannot defeat

46:24

it. The crown's gas. Give

46:28

me your stuff! She's

46:30

supposed to have you. You don't have that. I

46:33

want you to know that. This

46:35

is now yours to wield. Oh,

46:38

and by the way, there's a

46:40

little button on the side so you can

46:43

collapse or extend it as necessary. At over

46:45

six feet long, it's a little unwieldy. Nice.

46:48

That's it. So the referee comes out and says...

46:51

This ends today's contest. Come back

46:53

later for fighters versus wizards. The

46:56

crowd is versus and there's nothing left for you over

46:58

here, but you have another

47:00

piece of the costume. Yay! Amazing.

47:03

We have another piece. What do we still have

47:05

to tick off, Danny? We still need some lightening on

47:07

our shoes. Nice. We

47:09

need to dismantle our masks to

47:11

turn them into goggles. Okay.

47:13

We need a DD on our shirt

47:16

and we need this cape with the crossword

47:18

clues. I think the goggles

47:20

thing, because we were told they look like actual goggles,

47:22

not a cut-up mask. I think what it will be

47:24

is we might find goggles with the wrong strap and

47:26

we just use the strap part of our mask. That's

47:29

fair. That's fair. Well, do you think we should

47:31

go to the cosplay area? We might find

47:33

goggles. Yeah, let's go to the cosplay area.

47:36

You head over to the cosplay area and admire

47:38

the ingenuity of all the costumes. You

47:40

don't really know who you're doing in those

47:42

rooms. They're purely all-sustaining. One

47:45

person, however, has an

47:48

amazing no-candidard-starian costume. Wait,

47:51

is that a real sword?

47:53

It looks incredibly sharp. How

47:56

do you get that past security? Happy

47:59

watch. security guards and a

48:01

bright blue outfit walk past and Nokan

48:03

swiftly hides the sword under his tunic.

48:06

He must be concerned about it being confiscated."

48:09

Interesting. So, if

48:11

we can get a blue security guard outfit, we

48:14

could steal his sword. And

48:16

why do we want the sword? We don't know yet,

48:19

but it's a good thing to tuck into our back pocket.

48:23

I think that we should take a moment, we

48:25

were talking about potentially getting a security guard outfit

48:27

and things like that, we might be able to

48:29

get that at the security office. Maybe

48:31

we should look at some of the little things to

48:34

get some inspiration from them. Yeah, we haven't checked the

48:36

entryway. I suppose that's true. Or

48:38

the water. Yeah, I'm really intrigued

48:40

by this water. Okay, let's

48:42

check out the water, we're right next to it anyway. Okay,

48:45

you head over to the water, and

48:47

there are two water coolers here with

48:49

a huge supply of cheap, transparent plastic

48:51

cups. And on the

48:53

wall above the three coolers are three coming

48:55

attraction posters. And the link

48:57

to those posters is in the chat. And

48:59

cups of water be made to look like goggles. Hmm.

49:03

Alright. Coming attractions poster. Yeah,

49:07

we've got three of them. Ooh, Goblet

49:10

Quest 2. To continue

49:12

the quest, one must become two. Coming

49:15

8-2-2024. Okay. Is

49:18

that a movie we should be paying attention to? Macbeth

49:20

3, The Witches Revenge. Get

49:23

ready, the three witches are adding a fourth. That's

49:25

the second one that's talking about changing numbers. Yeah.

49:28

Coming soon, 7-4-2024. You make a good point. And

49:33

the last one? Pokémon. Those

49:35

who start messing with him live to regret it.

49:38

It's like Blood and Honey, but the Pokémon version.

49:40

Yeah, it's a jigglypuff with a big sword. The

49:44

Macbeth one was also four witches flying

49:47

around in silhouette. They're different colors, a

49:49

pink one, a dark blue

49:51

one, a lilac one, and

49:53

a red one. And there's

49:55

like a big magical orb floating above their

49:57

heads. Yeah, that's true. And the Goblet Quest

49:59

art. with a goblet full of

50:01

water flying around with

50:04

power up shininess

50:07

around it and what

50:09

looks like a dark forest pathway. I'm

50:12

not quite sure. I

50:14

don't know what to do about these guys. No, they

50:16

are trickily cryptic at this stage. And

50:18

the Pokémon one does not seem to reference

50:20

any numbers changing. Not

50:22

directly, no. I

50:25

think that I want to keep looking at things, I want to look

50:27

at everything so that I can feel like I can hone

50:29

in on the areas later. Yeah, let's keep looking.

50:32

So let's go to the first aid booth. Yep, yep, let's

50:34

look around at all the little things. You

50:36

head to the first aid booth and

50:38

how can this station not be staffed?

50:41

It's gotta be a health violation.

50:43

Plus, the first aid kit is

50:45

locked with a six letter lock? You

50:48

really should go complain. Hmm.

50:51

Okay. I don't know what the

50:53

code will be there. Do you want

50:55

to keep looking around? I guess...

50:58

There's a card house nearby. Sure.

51:01

So there are several impressively tall

51:04

and intricate structures already built. On

51:07

one nearby table, covered with a velvet

51:09

tablecloth that reaches here, a man

51:11

has seemingly just begun a new house. He's only got a couple of

51:13

levels done. Maybe

51:16

all the cards he's using are regular playing

51:19

cards, but one on the bottom level appears

51:21

to be a limited key card with the

51:23

word security on it. Ooh.

51:26

I say, hey man, you've only just started building that house. Could

51:29

I take the key card that you're using there? What?

51:32

That card is foundational to

51:35

the entire structure. There is no way to

51:37

remove it. You'd have to get it after

51:39

the convention is over. Um,

51:41

hey man. You've built a

51:43

house of cards for a card building competition using

51:45

a non-regular... What's the word? Regulation?

51:49

Yeah, that's it. A non-regulation base card. You

51:51

want that secret to be found out by

51:54

the Cards House Building Association? Maybe we banned

51:56

for life. I

51:58

am the president of the Cards House. My population

52:01

and you won't ever seen abusing

52:03

your power like this. All rules

52:05

for the but not for me

52:07

it's you'll have to use regular

52:09

bicycle cause I'm gonna use blue

52:11

and scissors. Get outta here. You

52:14

were disclosed the A station. To

52:17

search of how you goes back to what you doing.

52:19

Okay so bomb that we need to make this

52:21

house full of up. So. That he'll

52:23

have to give up. We may with can take it then

52:25

minutes. Seems easy enough to do. Yes,

52:30

So. Easy to it. Is

52:32

only just started. Suggest that nothing down what

52:34

little less got probably one of a huge

52:36

impact. To.

52:38

The doing that security card so I can steal a sword. but

52:40

I don't know I want a soldier. Assuming

52:42

that that is even more, although it. Gets.

52:45

Hurt. So.

52:47

We seen that the security area in our something that

52:49

we need discard to get into. We we can

52:51

maybe go check but I'm assuming will be

52:53

be rebuffed by not having Todd so we

52:55

have quickly go to their security officer sense

52:57

it. So. You have or it's

52:59

is is as cares office and the door

53:01

is legal to carry office employees only and

53:03

is laughed with a card reader Rakoff I

53:06

get now the only thing that I feel

53:08

we haven't looked at as the minutes as

53:10

you we haven't seen the. Minutes as the end

53:12

of can we go over to the ministers vendor. The

53:14

both has the same thing either and

53:16

one hour you don't have that kind

53:18

of time home and there is a

53:20

off on the counter that a kiss

53:22

our supplies and it off with a

53:25

five digit combination. Of

53:27

there's a lot of positive instead. To.

53:30

Time when this tape again I think

53:32

sir. Well. Looked around

53:35

we haven't seen too much. As

53:38

gonna help us with this. I haven't noticed

53:40

much. Again, now that we've

53:42

seen more things and just the event schedule

53:44

and the other fictional character names. Come.

53:46

Up. On. Hunts think

53:49

so. Five. Clues

53:51

was amazing may have zoo the

53:53

meanings with if live comic book.

53:55

Thousand I hear. there were five. Of

53:57

those say you are all. Are. To.

54:00

Date about. Oh. Boy I can.

54:04

So. Can you fix it? is the January one. Saw.

54:07

January take titles right for five.

54:09

Now what was the first clue

54:11

on the contest? Plus. Twenty.

54:14

Twenty Three Movie Guess anything that we

54:16

can say related to at like anything

54:18

written in the text of that comic

54:20

book cover. That. Can relate

54:22

to that two people. Dumas,

54:24

But I don't think so. Why

54:27

isn't the sheep saying anything? What?

54:29

Would a sheep say. Circling. Sidebar:

54:33

Who. Did you say the World Leader might be

54:35

the only remember? Yea, that throwdown. Of thinking

54:37

about that stuff. Gotta buy

54:39

ins. How. About we look

54:42

at the number three because that's the one that didn't

54:44

have a dialogue. On it's know Diallo

54:46

than assuming pas Ted there is

54:48

a be person, a jail and

54:50

a little purple cyclops lady. It.

54:52

Is fabbri ninety eighty five. Easy

54:55

to. Somehow.

54:57

Relates to either Twenty Twenty Three

54:59

Movie Six Letters fictional character for

55:01

ten sacred object for five with

55:03

feel like holy Grail. Tv.

55:05

Shows Seven, Five. Holy

55:08

Grail And someone has a big A

55:10

on this show. This is this. Like

55:12

I say, he crusades the day. To.

55:15

There's a ton for me on her

55:17

tongue down Tom. Downtown.

55:20

Abbey. Tv. Show.

55:23

Is. Tristan down ten.

55:26

Abby. The. Tv shows Downton

55:28

Abbey, This is Down Tongue. And.

55:31

This person has an A on them. Okay,

55:34

that's interesting. Good Worth knowing that that was a

55:36

ton then. So. Does Downton Abbey connected

55:39

to this? but Downton Abbey is just

55:41

like it is. Still isn't quite like

55:43

downtown is there. And. A person

55:45

with an eon them maybe think. Nab.

55:49

Downtime. Now see now. been there somewhere

55:51

Sword? you don't you think the a cast

55:53

the bad guy. Is Nab

55:55

a sir. Okay,

55:58

Sir. A combination. The pictures and.

56:02

Working. With the dialogues.

56:04

Interesting. Okay

56:06

so what would that mean for the

56:08

as safe? So. We

56:11

think that's Barack Obama. And

56:13

the. All we have to connect Barack

56:15

Obama to caped tales. It's about go

56:18

off bombs shape. Is. That

56:20

a seat might say bar. On

56:22

even oh, that's the bar from Barack

56:24

Obama, Obama. Me and I guess it's

56:26

the bar from Barack because I'm gonna

56:28

guess that if we ask. Center bomb

56:30

sounds like bomb. Oh

56:32

yeah, that's not first. I'm a.

56:36

Bomb and bar And to that

56:38

maybe. And

56:40

then they're saying ah, afterwards.

56:43

Bomb. And. Bomb. Is.

56:46

The same. And. Then

56:48

this a ah well against

56:50

Bama. So. We're missing Rak

56:52

of. Were missing raccoon, block or

56:55

rock. On rocks.

56:59

Ah, accents. The

57:01

another fit status as I

57:04

get suffered a. Broken.

57:08

Ah okay, Rask, Do.

57:10

We have. Oh. Oh Oh

57:12

No. That. At rare

57:14

occasion, and in a normal cryptic crosswords

57:17

way, you've got the answer. And.

57:19

You got three quarters of how to get

57:21

there and we just can't find little bit

57:23

in those last couple. Let it come from.

57:26

Or yeah, we're discussing the over the sort of Obama.

57:30

I. Mean. As. He zeros.

57:32

On. Us time. For. Sometimes you

57:35

could say zero though. That's. Their

57:37

you. Ago.

57:40

Or so is looking for features that we can

57:42

say to make them left. Will win out

57:44

on Tv show and world later. Gray. I

57:47

better object is probably Holy Grail.

57:49

Yeah, so where do we think

57:51

that is? There. Is a whole

57:53

and that trying to. Hear the try such as a

57:55

hole in it. And league. Whole.

57:59

58:01

Like a rail or was.

58:05

I know need a fictional characters. Had

58:07

58:09

Bugs Ted and Origins. This.

58:11

58:48

Nine. I liked Miss. My.

58:51

Cat there's money. There is a bag of money. Cas

58:54

Miss Smith Moneybags, The

58:57

Miss Moneypenny. They're.

58:59

Out there is a Penn. Penn.

59:01

A. Ah,

59:04

That's. A fictional character med money right number of

59:07

let or it has kept my head. Who? Who?

59:09

Who with money printing. And

59:11

now we've just got to do we have. Owned

59:13

by said into a two thousand to

59:15

59:43

59:45

other. Oil at the onset.

59:49

Of who can say is available in an auto? Yeah.

59:52

The big movie that came out last year. The.

59:54

Second avatar. Have.

59:57

No idea what we learn. That. I

1:00:00

don't want. To have. No

1:00:04

memories of movies that came once. Once it's been

1:00:06

more than a month's it's all the same time.

1:00:08

Movie Can a. Person. At. The

1:00:11

person arresting an alien. How.

1:00:13

Do we get words out of that? Or a single word

1:00:15

out of that. Dragon like

1:00:18

already returned when there were there

1:00:20

were two big movie coming out

1:00:22

the same time. Oh it's Bobby.

1:00:24

Okay, we did say that that was one of

1:00:27

the two. Movies. As

1:00:29

Aziz with a to lose that led us

1:00:32

to answer the contest goes with we can

1:00:34

just give those answers to the guy google

1:00:36

up to the guy with the cape be

1:00:38

like. A Mad Bobby Miss Moneypenny Holy

1:00:40

Grail Downton Abbey Barack Obama. I'm

1:00:42

looking for a single word answers. Now.

1:00:44

Geico while he says oh that type guy.

1:00:47

Foreclosure one of the crossword. Yeah.

1:00:50

I didn't say how they have been

1:00:52

a long pass. Let's say whatever internet

1:00:54

security like that as if you have

1:00:56

a positive a single word in english

1:00:58

that's terrible man. In the least a

1:01:00

number in a special character in the riots. And

1:01:03

how do have to pay attention to the issue numbers and

1:01:05

things like that? Yes, So.

1:01:07

Now we order them in order

1:01:09

of issue number and the number

1:01:11

is the letter of that answer.

1:01:13

That's riot or so. We start

1:01:15

with. The. Six letter of

1:01:17

Barack Obama. Say. Can.

1:01:21

We. Then have. The. Second

1:01:23

letter: ah bobby. We.

1:01:26

Then have. The. Tenth

1:01:28

letter of Miss Moneypenny. That.

1:01:32

We. Then have. The.

1:01:35

Second, Letter. Of.

1:01:37

Holy Grail. Holy Grail. Are.

1:01:40

And. Third letter.

1:01:43

Downton. Abbey W it's Capella Hundred

1:01:45

and the say we punch him

1:01:47

in the face. So

1:01:50

we make sure. The sound effects come up appropriate

1:01:52

like. Snow.

1:01:54

The second time series of I'll See.

1:01:58

if i dunno that's was coming friends I

1:02:00

mean, yeah. I don't

1:02:02

know if you punched him in the

1:02:05

face. Yeah,

1:02:09

you say kapow? You say

1:02:11

kapow and we punch him in the face. Alright,

1:02:15

I'll have you stand up and just, alright

1:02:17

fine I'll give you the cape. Really?

1:02:20

So they're just not getting into you

1:02:22

because of that? Well, we solved this

1:02:24

puzzle. Serensqueal. Found by the ancient laws.

1:02:29

So you do have a cape, slightly

1:02:31

bulleted cape, in your possession. Okay,

1:02:34

can we keep off cape? Great. Unfortunately.

1:02:38

I don't know if that did bring us any closer to the

1:02:40

spies, let alone a five digit mark. No, it seems

1:02:42

to be completely unrelated to the five digit mark. Um,

1:02:47

a person's back in it. Maybe that's what we need

1:02:49

a sword for. We'll never find the combo but we

1:02:51

can pry up in the box with a stolen sword.

1:02:55

So, what are we doing here? Like, we

1:02:58

have the posters on the coming

1:03:00

attractions. There are three posters.

1:03:04

I've no idea what this connects to with these coming attractions.

1:03:07

One must become two, three

1:03:09

out of four, and then

1:03:11

a Pokémon. Yeah,

1:03:14

and they're all the dates which contain

1:03:18

some of the numbers that they mention,

1:03:20

for the ones that mention numbers, but that's not necessarily

1:03:22

relevant. To continue the

1:03:24

quest, one must become two, coming eight to 2024. And

1:03:29

three witches are adding a fourth, and

1:03:32

we have seven for 2024. And

1:03:35

then three, five 2024 for Pokémon. So

1:03:38

we have dates. We had

1:03:40

a six letter lock, but... You're

1:03:42

not going to get much of a letter out of zero in 2024. No.

1:03:46

Yes, I don't know what

1:03:48

these connect to. We haven't had

1:03:50

a look at the plastic water cups. I don't know

1:03:52

if there's any reason to. Is there anything closer to

1:03:54

examine with a cup of water? They

1:03:57

are cheap, transparent plastic

1:03:59

cups. Yeah, do you have

1:04:01

any need for a cheap transparent plastic cup? Making

1:04:04

goggles out of them. I'm

1:04:06

taking two cups of water. Yeah,

1:04:08

take two cups of water. Filled

1:04:10

with water or are they just cups? At first

1:04:12

they're filled with water. Yeah, fill them with water. I

1:04:16

put them on my eyes and I put

1:04:18

my mask on backwards so that the straps

1:04:21

hold them in place. But I'm covering

1:04:23

my face. I think those look like goggles. They kind

1:04:25

of look like goggles but they don't stay on

1:04:27

your face. See? That's

1:04:30

all we need a sword for. To pierce

1:04:32

them, to be able to get elastic

1:04:34

through them. Maybe. Pretty intense use of

1:04:36

a sword. Or un-intense use of

1:04:38

a very intense sword. Can

1:04:41

we just use a face paint stand to like draw?

1:04:44

I was on our shoes. I was thinking a similar thing.

1:04:46

Or on our shirts. Can

1:04:49

we either find the white

1:04:52

and red paints required to put DD on

1:04:54

our shirt or the yellow paint required

1:04:56

to paint our boots? Are you trying

1:04:58

to do the Dr. Dynamo costume content?

1:05:00

Yeah. Yeah, well I think

1:05:02

the costume itself has kind of raised DDs

1:05:05

on it. They wouldn't look

1:05:07

very good painted on that shirt. What about Ashley?

1:05:09

My paints don't really do well with fabric or

1:05:11

leather anyway. For leather, I think you

1:05:13

could do that for the miniatures booth. Oh

1:05:16

really? Sorry, the miniatures booth needs a five-digit

1:05:18

combo. Do you know what that is? I'm just

1:05:20

attempting. I don't know. I mean, I... I

1:05:24

don't know. I mean, I... Well, it's

1:05:26

not... I mean,

1:05:28

I don't

1:05:30

know. I heard the guy talking something about becoming

1:05:33

attractions posters. Who runs the miniatures booth? No, that's

1:05:35

not right. There's no puzzle there. I don't

1:05:37

know. I don't know. I just thought I'm

1:05:39

just telling you what I heard. Okay,

1:05:42

so five digits. That's better than

1:05:44

trying to get six letters out of it. Well,

1:05:47

one becomes two to continue the

1:05:49

quest. Three witches and the

1:05:51

three witches are adding a fourth. And

1:05:55

Pokémon has no numbers in its title.

1:05:58

They all have dates. The dates we could... But

1:06:00

if we ostensibly put in order, I'm assuming they're American

1:06:02

dates. Oh, it didn't occur

1:06:04

to me. That it would be 3, 5, then 7, 4, then 8, 2. I'm

1:06:09

not sure, but let's work on that assumption

1:06:12

if we had to order them. But there's

1:06:14

no necessary need to order them

1:06:16

yet because we don't have anything to order. If

1:06:20

we're trying to get numbers out of them, they

1:06:23

all have dates. Dates are numbers.

1:06:26

Now, we'll note that things like mad and messing

1:06:29

are also very cryptic

1:06:31

crosswordy. They very much are. Macbeth

1:06:34

3, The Witches' Revenge. Get ready, the three

1:06:36

witches are adding a fourth. So

1:06:39

it's Macbeth 4th. Three

1:06:41

could add a fourth. That's 3, 4

1:06:44

in the title. There are four pictures

1:06:46

of witches. There is a date. The

1:06:48

date is 7, 4, 2024. Yeah,

1:06:52

for the Pokémon one, I

1:06:55

was trying to find places for those

1:06:57

letters, but again,

1:06:59

maybe it's just because there weren't very many. I couldn't see

1:07:01

anything off the top of my head. Like

1:07:04

a third letter and a fifth letter gave me

1:07:06

a K and an M. It didn't seem super

1:07:08

helpful. The words...

1:07:11

Oh, I included the word Pokémon, but if

1:07:13

I don't include the word Pokémon, then it

1:07:16

says start with. That's not terrible. Oh,

1:07:19

so you've got like start with and then 2024 doesn't do anything?

1:07:23

Yeah, I was ignoring the 2024 because they were

1:07:25

the same on everything. Okay, so

1:07:28

we have start with for

1:07:30

Pokémon. Possibly. Start

1:07:32

with... Adding. Adding.

1:07:34

Three. Three. And

1:07:37

then the eighth. So we're doing the eighth.

1:07:39

So like adding three was the seventh and

1:07:41

fourth words of the

1:07:44

tagline of the film. Cool.

1:07:47

So, Pokémon got us the third and the

1:07:49

fifth words of the tagline of the film, which

1:07:52

is start with adding three

1:07:54

and then Goblet Quest... To

1:07:57

continue. T.W.O.

1:08:00

continue. Hm. Well,

1:08:03

okay. Don't know the order,

1:08:05

but start with... Well

1:08:07

I didn't chronologically, which is start with adding three,

1:08:11

two continues. Well, the

1:08:14

sequelness of movies? Oh

1:08:17

yeah, one then two then three, so start

1:08:20

with two. Continue

1:08:23

adding three. Continue adding three. Yeah.

1:08:26

Well, it's a five digit combo. Yeah.

1:08:30

Two... Five eight eleven. Five

1:08:32

eight eleven. Two five eight eleven. Alright, can we

1:08:34

put two five eight one one? Two

1:08:36

five eight one one onto the last

1:08:38

and it opens up. Hey, hey. Inside

1:08:40

are some brushes and a whole rainbow of colored

1:08:43

paint. Brilliant. Now

1:08:45

this paint, I feel like we were assured we could

1:08:48

probably do our shoes for that, but not the shirt

1:08:50

because that was more sticky outy. Yes, that

1:08:52

would require a thing to attach. Let's paint some

1:08:54

lightning bolts on our shoes. You

1:08:56

have lightning bolts on your shoes. And

1:08:58

copy very carefully off of the

1:09:02

action figure, right? Oh yeah.

1:09:05

People say I'm crazy. I've got lightning

1:09:07

bolts on the soles of my shoes. Okay,

1:09:10

so the only things we've got left

1:09:12

is where was the six digit lock

1:09:14

again? It is on

1:09:16

the first aid boost. Right, first aid boost. The

1:09:19

card builder using a security card and the

1:09:22

sword. Those, to me, feel like the only

1:09:24

three big... And the event

1:09:26

schedule. Of course. The event schedule.

1:09:28

That had six events on it, I think. Oh,

1:09:31

interesting. So that could get

1:09:33

our first aid code. So how

1:09:36

do we get six individual letters

1:09:38

from these six different events? How

1:09:41

does the revengers talk with your

1:09:43

favorite... Well, Dr. Y is

1:09:46

like the letter Y because it says

1:09:48

Y, which is a word that sounds like a letter.

1:09:51

I'm scared that when I go through and like

1:09:53

the 1pm event, if I take the first word

1:09:55

of the description, the second word of

1:09:57

the 2pm description, it's starting to

1:09:59

create Little bit talk

they always have to giant leaded

1:15:35

days in them to suffice anyone's

1:15:37

allergic and needs to be traded

1:15:39

or other to join but a

1:15:41

days. Unfortunately not exercising why

1:15:43

you know you did say that.

1:15:47

Are as a growing third it has to do with their

1:15:49

know if. You don't think

1:15:51

too much about how assessed eight

1:15:53

bucks and across box. You don't

1:15:55

think about how much they haven't comments until you need

1:15:57

to make some goggles out of snobs and more.

1:16:02

I want to use what is in

1:16:04

these supplies to make myself the mosque

1:16:06

Cup goggles. Wouldn't. Hear

1:16:08

you say. So. A citizen that

1:16:10

as well as as around the same

1:16:12

as really a is. A

1:16:14

staple. We. Cut the ends

1:16:17

of the cops of that's just the

1:16:19

the round but bombs. With. Dad

1:16:21

is just a tiny little stab mark into

1:16:23

the sides of the cops. Using it as a

1:16:25

as. And the here using some scissors. And

1:16:27

then we thread through the on a. Me

1:16:30

lately. Cut the elastic off the market. The

1:16:32

elastic. Obama hasn't thread it through it, so

1:16:34

maybe they'll be some tweezers if we need

1:16:36

to be delicate. lie a little. Note: in

1:16:38

the in the mosque strap so that doesn't come

1:16:40

out of the cup and then we can strap

1:16:42

than towel heads, exactly. Easy all that

1:16:44

and you have a pair of goggles

1:16:47

now or I get where we have

1:16:49

left. Just as a day. Yeah.

1:16:52

That's all we. Need for a costume? I. Get. We.

1:16:54

Need to get the suits. God. So.

1:16:56

His problem was. I'm on

1:16:59

building this house. The security card

1:17:01

you need is integral to the

1:17:03

structure of this house. And

1:17:05

if you take it will collapse so you have to wait

1:17:07

till the end of. The. Shock.

1:17:09

Mitre. Other hand are you area which we

1:17:12

can't. So. Either we

1:17:14

prematurely collapse the house so yes as

1:17:16

out again anyway or we find a

1:17:18

way said that it can structurally stand

1:17:21

up without that card. By. Replacing

1:17:23

it with something else. Or

1:17:25

another good at top card. not going to

1:17:27

do something like that and us a lot.

1:17:30

1:17:44

You get six feet back that way

1:17:46

1:20:00

then flash out bad to say, hand it

1:20:02

1:20:06

of blinks and

1:20:08

1:20:44

empty larp area? Oh

1:20:47

yeah, it's empty. Okay. Is that a problem?

1:20:49

We go to the guy with the sword and we take a

1:20:51

bat. We say, hey man, it was all a bit. We don't

1:20:54

actually want to confiscate the sword. But, and then we hold up

1:20:56

the sign in front of us. We need to cut

1:20:58

them in half. We need to cut them in half. Clean

1:21:00

it, clean it in twain. And

1:21:02

I keep, and I get to keep the sword? Yes,

No. But something, do we

1:21:29

have anything to stick? And take some band-aids

1:21:31

and like loop them around each other.

1:21:33

Like when you're making your own double-sided tape. Yeah, like

1:21:35

a double-sided tape band-aid. Perfect. That's

1:21:38

a nice and great idea. So you do

1:21:40
