- Hello, one and all.
Welcome to another thrilling episode
of "Dimension 20: Never Stop Blowing Up."
I'm your humble game master, Brennan Lee Mulligan.
With me as always are our Awesome Action Heroes.
Say hi, Awesome Action Heroes.
- [players] Hi, Awesome Action Heroes.
- Last we left off,
our heroes had reunited in the midst of the revolution,
astride their war pigs seizing the FBI field office
and absolutely destroying
the piss soaked Special Agent Carter Haldwell.
There was a ton of action all over the city.
Our friend, Dang, met Wolfman Ann, the pirate radio DJ,
who was a real person from the real world
living out their life over and over again in the VHS tape
of "Never Stop Blowing Up."
We saw an interrogation with G13
and Liv as Kingskin, as Jack Manhattan,
Jennifer Drips, Vic Ethanol, unconscious Shaun Nitro,
Johnny Manhattan, Lucy Santangelo,
and Doug Meat all
rolled up to the FBI offices,
sprang their daring rescue of their compatriots.
Folks, we are looking at four out of six
MacGuffins recovered
as all of you head to the hospital.
Also, in our last "Adventuring Party," our crew,
they unlocked the last group suite
under the d20 bracket ♪ Bustin' makes me feel good ♪
(driving rock music)
An ability that on a nat 20, cannot be adjusted
with Turbo Tokens, the only ability that you cannot,
on a nat 20 you can choose to have every one
of your allies at the table graduate their lowest die type
up one across all of the abilities
that share that lowest die type.
You can choose to start your track over,
now rolling with advantage,
or you choose to become the GM
of "Never Stop Blowing Up," for 60 seconds.
- Insane.
- I won't live to regret it.
(upbeat rock music) (everybody quietly laughing)
Okay?
Do we all agree to that?
- Yeah. - That I won't live.
- That's up up to you, my guy. (Brennan laughs)
- It might- - You should take your laptop
with you when we come. - I was gonna say.
- Now with that, we adjourn for the first time
to a place that you have long needed to go.
(everybody laughing) (graphics beeping)
- Beep beep, beep beep.
In the hospital, a weeping Doug Meat
talks to a doctor about your chances of survival.
All of you have only superficial injuries
so the doctor's really confused about what Doug means
because there's no chance of any of you dying.
But Doug really feels that there may be.
Lucy and Johnny are off in a corner consulting
with each other, standing by Paula's bed.
And the only injured members of the party
are Paula, Dang, Usha,
your superficial injuries
from the finger cranial brain surgery, skull cracking.
You see that there is a doctor sort of sitting
next to you going, "The procedure is a very common one
with very low risk.
We do it, I myself do it probably once
or twice a week here at the hospital.
I have a lot of practice with it.
Basically, what we do is we have
a very high temperature welding gun.
It's high enough temperature that it actually goes
through skin and blood.
And we are going
to collect trace iron from your blood vessels
and weld your skull back together."
- Oh my God. This is like when I had my humors reoriented.
- Hmm? - My humors.
(Jacob laughing)
- Puss, blood, urine, bile...
- That- - Isaac Newton first operated
on her. - Oh my God.
He was a catch in my day.
- Okay, - Noted surgeon Isaac Newton.
- And you do this surgery once or twice a week?
- Two. Two. Yeah. Two to three.
- Oh, two to three, sorry.
- Who else have you done it on?
That's probably confidential.
- Well, I'm not allowed to disclose anyone,
but I can say that I've done it on myself.
- Oh.
- I feel like it's getting weirder.
- [Ally] I just realized you have
the nitrous mask on. - Do you hear my voice?
I'm not, none of this is weird.
- Oh, it's the normal voice. - It's the normal voice.
So, yeah. Okay.
- Doctor, I have a question of kind of a personal nature.
My brain was just hacked.
I was fully an upset man for a little while,
and I guess I just don't know. Why was I targeted?
Why did that have to happen to me?
- Well, your brain was hacked
by a young upset man.
And you seem like a young calm man.
I don't know why you were targeted.
Mostly for hackers and scammers,
the elderly are targeted as people
that have tired out, are left behind.
These scammers feel at least
that at least in our society, they've been discarded.
No one in their family's looking out for them anymore.
They're just sort of a weight around everyone's neck.
And their inability to change with the times makes them
sort of an albatross around their family unit.
- I kind of put my arm around G13.
- Okay. - Yeah.
But that's just talking about old people.
- Okay, but if I recovered from that,
is there maybe not some sort of strength to never changing?
You're so stubborn, steadfast,
tenacious, that never could 100% of you be hacked?
- Well, medically, if we look at the firmest
and most unchanging part of the body,
which would be your skeletal structure, your bones,
the more unchanging
and solid bones are, the more brittle
and shitty they become.
Basically, the strength of most parts
of the body comes from their adaptability,
their ability to regenerate, rejuvenate,
and of course to rejuvenate means to become young again.
Juvenile being the root word in rejuvenate
to re-young oneself.
Everything about being old is bad.
While everything about being young is amazing, medically.
- I'm noticing now that you're talking
that you kind of have your mise en place
of what you're gonna use for the surgery
and there's a lot of Botox right there.
Are you going to give our friend a facelift
while you're doing this procedure?
- Well, this botulism that I have in these syringes,
perhaps one day this could be turned into something
that would make a face look younger.
Right now, this is just a nasty virus that kills you.
- Oh, that's true. - This shouldn't even be here.
And now that you've pointed it out.
- Oh. - I'm gonna make sure
that my assistant is fired.
- Did that, that's crazy.
That came around later? - After the '80s?
- Usha has a moment where she thinks about this doctor
basically prescribing change
and saying that change is a way to adapt and live longer.
And the more stubborn you are,
the more likely you are
to calcify and sort of self-destruct.
And she takes that in and full flat lines.
(machine beeping) - There's a flat?
(everybody laughing)
- You see the doctor- - Fuck! Fuck!
Usha! Usha!
- If we're asking you guys, you know what happens?
What about when you try so hard to change
that you sort of do something so crazy
to your life and blow it up
because you think that, you know,
you've just gotta change right now, right away.
Everything's gonna get better.
You're gonna have a hot, hot lady summer, as it were.
And then you find out (Jacob laughs)
that was the biggest mistake of your life.
What about when that, you do that?
- What I'm looking at on your chart is that you've been shot
and hit with some blunt force trauma.
Are you talking about something different?
- Yeah. (Rekha laughs)
- So in the medical profession, right?
Everything that I've sort of said here, right?
Generally speaking in medicine
there are no hard and fasts, right?
What's going on with one person's body
is never going on with someone else's body.
- Okay, so she- - Bodies are like snowflakes
and medically speaking,
if this person is calcifying, you almost can't be.
- I what? - "Oh, hold on.
Is this, is he dead?"
And he goes over and he goes, "Goddammit.
Well, looks like the power's out in the defibrillator.
Let's see if this works."
And stabs some botulinum into your-
(Rekha gargles) - Young neck.
(everybody laughs)
- Damn. Well, excuse me, I'm gonna go invent Botox.
(everybody laughs)
Did that answer your question?
- No.
- Okay. How about you? How's your arm feeling?
- Can we just say that like a robot
that does operations like
on grapes is just fixing my bow tie.
(Brennan laughs) (Brennan imitates robot)
- You see, he looks over, goes,
"That fucking robot's gonna take my job."
- This is just like a personal question for me.
You know, I had a check up a while ago.
My HDL levels were low.
What's a safe, you know, HDL level for, you know,
your good cholesterols and bad cholesterols?
Like a solid number.
- First of all, all cholesterol is good cholesterol.
That's number one.
- Cool. - And by the way,
I do want to say that if any
of you want that this wing
of the hospital is actually sponsored
by I Can't Believe It's Not Butter, so.
- Oh, so you can have as much butter as you want.
- Well. - 'Cause it's out
of a spray bottle.
- Yeah, exactly. So all cholesterol is good.
Change is absolutely necessary.
And whatever you said about hot lady summer, you can,
it sounded like you kind of had it figured out.
- And is therapy only for crazy people and women?
(Brennan scoffs) - "It's the '80s.
You're goddamn right." (everybody laughs)
He gets on a motorcycle and peels out of the hospital.
- Motorcycle indoors. That's crazy.
- You see Doug Meat wanders over
and says, "I just want you to know, I don't, I don't think
that the doctor was right about that.
I think therapy is for everybody."
- Doug, you're fantastic.
- You are too.
- Aw. - Don't worry,
everyone's gonna be okay.
I saw you were crying earlier.
- Yeah, I was. I was worried that we were gonna lose
some of you, but seems like maybe we're gonna be okay.
Once you guys are all fixed up,
what's the next move?
Where do you need me?
- You guys, I kind of feel like we should suit up.
- Yeah. - Oh yeah.
- Dang. We're all feeling good.
Why not look good
while we're doing it.
- Did that man help us at all?
- Yes, everyone has healed
all the way back. - That was a real doctor?
- It was a real doctor. - Imagine if he said,
"No, now you need to find-"
- Now you're all incapacitated
because a crazy person- - Roll a Wits check, yeah.
- And it's just one doctor who healed
all the different types of stuff?
- General practitioner. - Yes.
- And he did the iron.
- Yeah. - The surgery.
- Did the, yeah, the surgery happens.
You get your skull welded back together
without breaking the skin.
- Are there any devices that can read radiation?
- Ooh, give me a Wits five.
- [Jacob] A one. (graphics beeping)
But I'll use one of my ones to-
I'll re-roll.
- Okay. Using a different skill.
- Yeah.
Ooh, what did you say? - Five.
- Seven. - What skill did you use?
- I used Tough.
- Incredible, so what that looks like is instead
of doing a Wits based search for this,
you just head towards the like radiographic place
and just walk into an open radioactive X-ray scantron,
get a full dose of radiation
and just power through it with your Tough skill
and pull the meter off the wall
that scans for dangerous radiations.
- I wanna scan our MacGuffins
and see if it does anything interesting.
- Ooh. - Hell yes. Go ahead
give me Wits eight.
- Another one. - Another one.
- I'll make it an eight.
- Make it an eight. - I'll blow it up
and I'll- - Blow it up. Boom. Go to d10.
- Another one. But we'll just leave it.
- Another one. - [Brennan] Cool.
- I don't know what's happening.
- Yeah, well three, that's a lot of ones in a row.
- I don't like that. - I don't like that.
- Don't particularly like that.
- Didn't you say that you rolled to see how it was?
- I did do a vibe check at the beginning of this
and rolled a one on a d20.
- Let's, can I bless you with a set of dice?
- Yes.
- Don't you also have something called
Inspiring or something?
- It's, I mean this is like such a small,
I don't wanna waste too much of our resources
on like a small inkling I might have, yeah.
- These are my, those are my favorite dice.
- Wow. Thank you.
- Yeah. - Oh yeah.
- You cover the MacGuffins or scan the MacGuffins here.
- I guess in order like to be,
to mind my P'S and Q's, I'd like to scan something
that's not a MacGuffin versus a MacGuffin
to see if there's a different reaction.
- Looking for radioactivity,
I think that you don't get a sense
that the MacGuffins are necessarily radioactive.
- Okay. - You detect some
radioactivity weirdly just on Wendell,
but Vic Ethanol just has a little bit
of radioactivity on him.
There is none on the security clearance pass.
It has a small magnetic reading
from the sort of key card aspect of it.
There is no radioactivity,
but again, magnetism on the Shadow Falcon Protocol.
The cocaine brick has a little bit
of radioactivity to it. - Oh.
- Is it still bloody? - A little bit,
yeah, there's like a little bit
of blood still mixed in it. - Oh.
Is it who's done the juice? (Rekha stuttering)
- Perhaps, perhaps. - They're all like
nuclear power plants,
'cause I haven't done any.
- I haven't done any. - Well, we've done the juice.
Did we come up positive?
- Scanning yourselves for it?
Yes, I think that if you've had a little bit of the juice,
you do scan a little bit radioactive.
- Okay, cool. - Okay.
- [Brennan] And you don't get that many off
of the bullet casings in the evidence bag.
- Okay. I just wanted to check.
- [Ally] Cool. Yeah. Cool.
- [Brennan] So here at the hospital,
Lucy comes over to you
and says, "Jack, I'm gonna take Johnny and head back home.
I wanna make sure that he's okay.
And Vicki, I'm sure she's freaking out wondering
where we are, but-" - And who is that?
- It's your daughter. - Daughter.
(everybody laughing)
- Your daughter.
You have a daughter and a son.
(Jacob laughing)
- JK, LOL. I so sick. - LOL.
- JK, LOL? Jacqayluenne?
- I love you.
- She plants a big old smoosh on your mouth
and says, "I'm taking Johnny home."
Johnny looks at you says, "I love you, Dad."
- I love you too. - Look, I don't know what's in
that evidence baggie, but I do know this.
Some bad people wanted it pretty bad.
There's some question mark in those casings somewhere.
Otherwise they wouldn't have sent me after it.
- Who was it that sent you?
- That's the crazy part. I thought it was just some crooks.
I thought it was the Empresario's men.
I ran it down, the FBI sent me
into the FBI building to steal it.
- Did Haldwell send you?
- Carter Haldwell, famously drowned in his own piss?
- Wait, the piss? Yeah, the piss. It was the piss guy.
- Why would the FBI? - He entered the evidence.
Lucy, do you, do you know anything about this?
Didn't you work this case?
- She looks and says, "Well, yeah,
but the FB- It came outta my hands.
It went federal, the FBI took
over the investigation."
- Does Usha have any inkling
if G13 knows anything
extra about this since he was working with?
- Give me Wits 10. (dice clattering)
- Oh my, three.
- Go ahead, take a Turbo Token.
No, I don't think so. I think you're looking,
but there's something in that baggie that matters.
- I wish I had like texts with Cosmo.
So I could find out what he found out about Shadow...
- Emails. - Doesn't exist.
- Be a letter. - Still no.
- Could we, could we go
to his house or something? - Letters?
- Did he have like notes
or other video tapes he made?
- Letters? - Yeah maybe.
- Tapes? Oh yeah, his like-
- Oh.
And, and that old man
that was in the- - Probably died
a long time ago. - The old man that was
in the confession video with him.
Remember, there was like a really old man.
- Oh, that ancient old- - His new partner.
- Is too old for this shit. - And that, yeah.
We have to go there. - Yeah, these matchbooks.
And so maybe it has the answers.
Because the people- This was in my car
where my dynamite was. - Yeah.
- And it was the same people trying to kill you.
- Yeah. - Probably all connected.
- Let's do it. - Okay, let's-
- But first, let's suit up.
- Let's suit up. - Let's suit up.
- Hell yeah.
As you guys leave the hospital, you head back with Doug Meat
to your, like, SWAT van.
Everyone just describe one moment of suiting up in the van.
- Usha puts on three extra cardigans on top of her lab coat
and makes her hair frizzier
and puts on three scarves and fuzzy slippers
and takes a Benadryl. - Unbelievable. Great.
- Vic rips his dirty, like,
tank top in half and like throws it aside
and then puts a fresh new tank top on.
And then one of the bulletproof vests
from probably the SWAT team.
And then he just grabs a Sombrero beer,
cracks it, and takes a sip.
- Hell yeah. - Morning brew.
Jennifer Drips puts on like a really comfortable
like hoodie and some like track pants.
- Hell yeah. - Sensible sneakers.
- Like a celebrity hiding. - Yeah, exactly.
Like a celebrity at the airport. Just looks
like it's all really expensive, but it's like basics.
- Hell yeah. - And then takes a Benadryl.
(everybody laughing)
- Going to sleep. - Yeah.
- Greg Stocks is putting his final touches on his suit
as he clips his,
what do you call these, cuff links?
- Yeah, - A metal glove
covers his hand and retracts back into the-
- Sick. - Sick.
- Back into the cuffs. - Hell yeah.
- Kingskin redoes his tie all the way up
and then loosens it back down.
- Woo! (everybody laughing)
- Hell yeah. - Paula also gets
a new tank top,
fastens 12 guns
around her belt (everybody laughing)
and then slathers herself in cocoa butter.
(Brennan laughing) - Oh.
- Yeah, that's great.
- Unbelievable.
And you guys peel out of there.
- And we each get two Turbo- - Everyone take
two Turbo Tokens.
- What are you guys thinking as far as leads?
I know we're heading right now to the bar.
- Yeah. Lord's Cocktail Lounge.
- Okay, I guess we can talk more when we're there.
- You guys head out to Lord's
and start driving north,
up out of the city towards Malibu.
- Oh. - Oh.
- Oh wait, I want to call Mr. Kosciusko.
- [Brennan] Ah, this is
Lieutenant Kosciusko.
Who do I got here?
- [Izzy] It's Jeff. - Who?
- Jeff Manhattan. I- - [Brennan] Jack?
- I, yes, I killed everybody that was after me.
- Goddammit.
You old dog.
- But I want you to, I want you to go protect my wife
and son... and daughter.
- You, oh, your wife, your son, and your daughter.
All right, I'll get on that right now.
Where are you headed right now?
Where are you geographically?
- I don't know.
- We're going to Lord's Cocktail Lounge.
- I'm going to- Now, wait a minute. Hold on.
Are you shifty for any reason?
- What? (suspenseful piano)
- Yeah.
- Are you gonna two-time me?
- I'm not gonna two-time you, Jack.
Why are you talking this way?
I just wanna know where you're headed.
- I don't know, I just started thinking about it
and you're from LA
and you're mad that I am from New York City
and I just told you to go protect my wife and my children
and everybody's turning coats around here.
And so I'm wondering if you're a little,
if you're a little Benedict Arnold.
- [Ally] Fucking turncoat. - Hey Jack.
(speaking Russian) Na zdoróv'je.
And a blow dart shoots out of the walkie-talkie.
Go ahead and gimme a Tough check.
- Oh gosh darn it.
We gotta go back and get my family.
What do I have to do?
- [Brennan] Gimme a Tough difficulty of 14.
- No. - What does na zdoróv'je mean?
- [Brennan] Cheers. - Oh, wait, stop.
Who has a higher Tough,
what are you rolling with to get to the 14?
- A d10? - I have a 12.
- If someone has a 20, would you,
is that La Familia or is that Diesel Circus?
- Diesel. - Yeah, if you want
to use mine. - Or no, that's La Familia.
- Yeah, roll Tough on someone else's behalf,
once per episode.
- Go for it. Do I roll for you?
- No, wait, sorry, sorry.
What I'm saying is you can lend
one skill dice to another person.
'Cause if you roll Tough,
you would take the damage.
- Oh yeah. So I'm just rolling with a d20.
If you wanna do that. - That's fine.
- Okay. - Cool.
- Yeah. - What am I,
it's a Diesel Circus thing.
I'm knocking off, correct?
- It's a La Familia. - Thank you.
- 13. (Rekha gasps)
Do you have a token?
What was the? - 14 was the difficulty.
- Oh yeah. - Oh, but actually,
if you fail it by one, you don't take an injury.
- Okay great. - So actually just fail it
at 13 and take a one. - Save you a coin.
- So you can take a Turbo.
You take two Turbo Tokens with Relentless.
You can hear on the other end.
And it sounds like they just blew the dart.
Like, and it shoots outta the walkie-talkie.
And you hear a voice say,
(Russian accent) "Tell your little friend from Santo Patron
I'm on my way
and my little piggy is coming with me.
Even though he's one dead little porker."
- Did Mr. Kosciusko turn into a Spanish lady?
(everybody laughing)
- Lieutenant Kosciusko is indisposed.
- Oh, you killed him. - No, no, he,
he's right here, he's tied up, hold on.
- Is he good or bad? - "What's that?
Are you good or bad?"
And you hear-
(Mr. Kosciusko mumbling)
- I think he's good. (Ify laughs)
Can we turn around and go get my wife and son again?
- Or could we get two cars? - We're like 20 minutes out.
You have to go all the way to Malibu.
- I will say this... - Yeah.
- You could give them a call
- On what?
- I'm okay with turning back.
I just wanna make sure- - I have this item,
this newfangled phone.
- I don't know her number.
- Don't decide not to know her number.
- Yeah, I think that- (everybody laughing)
I recall 311. - That's impossible.
- I can call 311. 311.
- What if you connect with Jack Manhattan in your brain?
- Yeah. You know her number. - And just in case.
- Okay. Okay. Yeah. I'll try.
(everybody laughing)
- [Brennan] Give me Wits seven.
(laughing continues)
- Are we familiar with that Russian man?
Have we heard from him before?
- Well, this is the woman
from the hotel.
- [Ally] This is the person you hooked up with.
- Hi, little piggy. - The one who pulled
the blow dart out of- - [Jacob] Sorry, I'm rolling
ones today. - No, I hear you.
- Can't remember. - This is the woman who
in the Deluxe Royale pulled the-
- Sucked you to completion, buddy.
(everybody laughing)
- Wake up. - Eight!
- Hell. Is that blow up? No.
- No. - All right. You fail.
Take two Turbo Tokens.
- I have three. I called 311. (Aelx laughing)
Hello? Is anyone at 311? - Is that the right number?
- Hello? 311.
- Hi.
I'm looking for the phone number
of Lucille. (Jacob laughing)
- Lucy Manhattan.
- Huh? - Lucy Manhattan.
- Lucy Manhattan née...
- Santangelo. - Santangelo.
- Great. - Okay, I got the phone number
right here, do you want me to patch you through?
- Yes, please. - Great, this is the
district attorney for Los Angeles.
Do you want her home address?
- What the heck?
That's not good.
- Her home address?
- "I'm gonna patch you through."
You see the phone clicks through.
- Oh, don't you just dial zero?
- 311 could tell I was getting confused.
So they are patching me through.
- Okay.
- You patched through... Lucy.
Lucy gets on the phone and says "Hi. Who's this?"
- Hello. - Oh wait, give it to me.
- Oh. (everybody laughing)
Ooh, ooh. - Sweetie.
Sweetie, sweetie. - Hi. Yeah.
- Hi. It's Jeff. - Who?
- Your husband.
- Okay. - Okay, is this Lucy?
- Yeah. This is your wife.
- All right, if this is Lucy,
what's my wiener look like?
- Three words.
- I'm here with Johnny and so, yeah.
Oh, I remember that perp.
He had,
he didn't look well.
- What?
What?
- He had way more hair on the left side
of his head than the right.
- That's right - Head?
(everybody laughing)
- Don't like that. (laughing continues)
- Oh, I remember. Yeah.
He liked to wear turtleneck sweaters.
- Yes, as God intended.
- As God intended.
But he's, but on his birth certificate it said
that he didn't or doesn't.
- You're right. All right.
Okay. Oh no.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Okay, I think people are double crossing me
left and right.
- Got it. - So I think you and Johnny
and the other one are not safe.
- Okay. - So you know what,
I'm just gonna say, dang it.
Should she meet us at the bar?
Yeah, come to Lord's Casino Lounge
and- - Casino?
- Yeah. - Lord's Hospital
and Train Station.
- Lord's Hospital in Malibu. - Cocktail.
Cocktail Lounge.
- She's like, "All right,
I'm headed to Lord's Casino."
- No, it's a bar, a bar.
- Okay, Lord's Cocktail Lounge. Gotcha.
- Wait, before you hang up-
- Hold on, Kingskin wants to ask something.
- Well, I'll ask you first, Jack.
- Okay.
- I could, I have Troublemaker.
I could spend a Turbo Token to locate
and receive help within reason from my criminal network.
Do you want someone from my network
to go protect them? - Oh my gosh.
That's a great idea.
Yeah, let's do that. - Okay.
- If you don't want to come all the way to Malibu.
- Yeah, ask her if she wants to come or not.
- You wanna send a criminal to come protect the DA?
- Yeah, but we are good.
(Rekha gasps) - Okay.
- Or you come, come out and maybe we'll do both.
- Great. - It's the '80s.
It probably only takes like 35 minutes to get to Malibu.
- Yeah. There's so many less people.
- There you go. "I'll wait for your friend's
backup and then we'll head to Lord's."
- Make it Doug.
- Okay. Do you want Doug to do it?
- Yeah. Yeah.
- Well then I don't have to spend a Turbo Token to ask Doug.
- No. - Yeah, no.
- Doug will do whatever.
- [Brennan] Doug says. Doug says.
Says, "Okay you want-" - Take the bus
to Rosemead where Lucy lives.
- Yeah, and I'll take over, Doug. I'll drive.
- "Great. I'm on my way to Rosemead."
He opens the driver's side door,
tucks out onto the highway.
Skid, guardrail, in the gravel,
and begins to sprint, leaps on another car.
Rips the door off, kicks the driver out
and heads to Rosemead. - Bye Doug.
- Bye. - We all say bye.
- Bye, sweet pea. - When we get to Lord's,
should we split up?
Just you go in 'cause you're the person
who got left the calling card.
If those people on the phone,
if it's the Russian people we already know,
she's gonna recognize. - She said, "Say hi to my
little piggy friend."
- And she said that they're dead?
- Should we send somebody
that she would expect to see?
I mean, you've had a, you had a relationship.
- I'd like to try again. - You'd like
to give yourself a shot at that relationship?
- Russell really like is trying so hard
and just is gonna be supportive about this.
Is like, yeah man, I think yeah, you were so close, dude.
You should definitely try again.
- If I know anything about relationships,
they always work. - She's back.
- They always work. - She's back.
She's put her cold,
clammy hands are back on our neck.
- It always works, sweet pea.
You can make anything work if you give it enough.
- Calms me down just a little bit.
(Ally laughs) - Here we go, sweat pea.
- All right.
- Yeah, I'm happy to lead the charge if you think
that that makes sense.
And I can be like a distraction.
- I'd love to kind of stealth in there.
Just be, look like a normal patron
and just go to the bar solo.
- Through the ducts?
- Oh my goodness, the ducts. - Again in the ducts.
Yeah, the bar ducts. - Ow, ow.
- (whiny) Ah, I hate this.
- So all of you are driving up
through Malibu on a ridge
that sort of like those beautiful sort of small trees
and scrubs growing in like the rocky uneven cliff side.
Going down to this beautiful beach.
You see the moon shining over,
cresting off the white foam caps
of waves crashing against the beach at night.
And on this ridge overlooking it, with a parking lot
kind of raised up and facing out towards the east
away from the ocean,
you see Lord's Cocktail Lounge.
Approaching it from the highway,
it just seems like a kind of little divey kind of spot.
But as you approach and see that it's on this cliff face,
you can look down
and see that underneath Lord's there are like six levels
descending through the cliff
all with their own balconies overlooking the vast ocean.
So like the ground floor is the top floor
and it descends and you see as it goes down,
the lights get even more,
like it starts kind of like dim gold light.
And then there's reds and blues and greens.
You hear music from down below,
they look like private balconies and sky boxes.
You see thick cigar smoke pouring off some
of these other lower balcony decks underneath
that first entryway.
Two security guards at the front, you see, wear sort
of intense tattoos covering their hands.
And you see that one of them has what looks
like these ivory inlaid,
gold filigree revolvers holstered on either hip.
And you see the other one has
what looks like a massive double-handed like polearm.
Like a fucking Swiss halberd.
Both of them stand at the door.
Couple cars out and around, parked out here.
Long parking lot.
The cars you see in this place are Benzes,
BMWs, Ferraris, Rolls-Royces, Porsches,
like all these fine sports cars here at the lounge.
And as you approach,
how do you all wanna make your entrance?
- I can imagine that Jennifer has done
a lot of business here.
Can I try to get in touch with that
and maybe have some information about how this all works
and how best to talk to the front person
and get to whatever level we need?
- Go ahead and give me Wits eight.
- Okay. - Could I also do a Wits
to see if Kingskin has been here before?
- Yeah. - And if he knows
these two people? - 17.
- Yeah. - Ooh.
- 17 on Wits. You beat it by more than five.
Jennifer, you have a deep understanding that Vic Ethanol
and Greg Stocks have both been here before.
- Okay, great.
So you two should be our front people getting in there.
- You have as well.
And you, on that 17, actually know
that this place, in addition
to being a cocktail lounge is actually,
it's not advertised as such.
The cocktail lounge is filled with bikers, gangsters,
it looks like just sort of like
right off of route one.
Kind of like seedy, like oceanside bar and grill.
And it conceals a international assassin's hotel
that basically underneath it,
it's like hotel, nightclubs,
private places, like hotels in the old weird British sense
where you could be like at the Savoy for two years.
Like you could have a room there for a long, long time.
You know Jennifer has a room here.
(all gasping) - Whoa.
- I wanna go to my room.
Oh, so sick.
Okay, so I relay all of this information
to everyone, especially
that you two have been here before.
- I pat my lapel and find a pin.
- Hell yeah. - Like a, it was shaped
like a diamond, it's translucent.
- Beautiful. You approach the two security at the top.
Go ahead and give me... Oh yeah.
- Well I was just going to suggest that since the three
of us have been here and maybe security would let us in,
we each enter separately with our plus ones
that we're bringing for the night to get us all in there.
- Like a date?
- Yeah, we're on a date.
- Yeah. Cool. Who rocks up first with the date?
- Yeah, who specifically is on a date with whom?
- Well, I just mean like a business date or whatever.
Just pretend that you're like doing business here.
- Yeah, who could pretend-
- [Rekha] I have not been on a date
in 75 years. - Usha, I'm so glad
you're back, but please shut up.
We walk up to the door. (everybody laughing)
- Russell, Paula, y'all be on a date and roll in.
I think that'll pass.
- Okay. Yeah, sure. - I give him a little nudge.
I should probably go with Usha, right?
- Yeah, yeah. - Okay, great. Okay.
Yeah. Great. Okay.
- My late husband was also like you.
He was crazy. - Pleasure.
- He was crazy? - Well then who'll be my date?
- Oh, I guess me. - Probably?
- Oh, okay. Yeah. Sounds good.
- You and Wendell on a date. That's great.
- Yeah. Yeah. Business date for the mission.
- All right. Paula, you ready?
Okay, well, I hold hands with Paula,
interlaced fingers, walking up.
- We're like swinging.
- You walk up.
Go ahead and give me, having been here before,
go ahead and just give me Hot four.
- [Ally] Okay. Incredible.
Five.
- "Ah, madame, very good to see you."
- Good to see you too.
Do I know their names? - Yes.
This is Fritz and Leon.
- Great to see you too, Fritz and Leon.
- Leon looks over at you, sort of toying with one
of the ivory handled revolvers
and says, "Much obliged, madame."
You notice for the second time,
neither of them have addressed you by name
and you get a sensation that nobody
who walks up to this door with a new person
is ever addressed by name,
'cause they know that you might not be using the name
that they have on the books. - Incredible.
- "Seat at the bar waiting for you.
Think five and six are open," and opens the door
and you walk into this beautiful bar
and you notice that the stools at the bar-
Again, this is sort of that front top level is kind
of divey long wooden bar,
the kind that's been lacquered over and over and over again.
So that even the places that are like chipped
and wood-rotted are like completely plastic, glossy
to the touch on that wooden bar.
And you see that the stools have deep vinyl purple covering
on the stools, thick wood and have little plaques over them
that number the seats at the table.
And even though there are a lot of seats open here,
you see a couple of very clear
like gunrunner bikers in the corner.
There's like a couple other like
criminal organization members up here.
You see there looks like two or three off-duty cops,
but they look like
very clearly visibly crooked cops, right?
Very "The Shield" energy over- - They have bad spines?
- Yeah. (Brennan gurgles)
Just sort of weird reptilian cops off in the corner.
And you see that stools five and six are open.
- Great, I shake each of their hands
and I press a $1 bill into each of their hands.
- Which was like $70
at that time. - Huge, huge tip. Huge.
- You see that each of them looks down at it
and goes, "Much obliged." - Give 'em a wink.
- Fold it up.
You walk up and see the barman.
And this, the guy over here's got like
sleeveless leather vest,
huge like grisly, greasy, like gray salt
and pepper, beard, barbed wire tattoo.
He's got thick eyebrows, older dude.
And you see just hanging off a hook on his belt is like one
of those tire irons.
Like just a- or no, but that, what's the thing?
It's like the wooden stick banded with iron at the end.
You know what I'm talking about?
It's like a cudgel kind of thing.
- Yeah, yeah. - Turns around and says,
"What can I get you and a
your friend to drink here?"
- I'll have a scotch
and whatever you want. - An appletini please.
- Appletini?
All our apples are regular sized, hoss.
(Rekha laughs)
- That is really funny.
(everybody laughing)
- Is there anything else you think you might want?
- He goes over, he pours like four fingers of Glenlivet
and just puts a nice Red Delicious apple in front of you.
- Thank you so much. - Okay. I understand.
I'll have a whiskey.
- What kind of whiskey you want?
- What's the kind with the guy on the front?
(Ally wheezing with laughter)
- Johnnie Walker? - Yeah.
- I'll get you Johnnie Walker.
You want the Johnnie Walker red or black?
We got the blue up on the top shelf too.
- I think my ex-husband does black.
- Your ex-husband? - Yes.
- Sorry to hear about that. - Thank you.
- My ex-husband is in Tampa.
- Okay. (players laughing)
- Let's do the blue. - He's got a new-
- He goes, takes the top shelf,
pours these two thick glasses.
He's like, "So, Johnnie Walker blue, Glenlivet.
Johnny Walker blue, and he has a new boyfriend."
- Oh, he's gay?
- Yeah, he was my husband and I'm a man.
- Oh.
- I'm kicking, I'm kicking the calves so fucking hard.
- You're the one committing a faux pas.
(everybody laughing)
- Did you leave him?
- No. - No? He left you?
- Yeah.
- Bastard. - What a bastard.
- He's not a bastard.
- No? - No.
It's hard. Life's hard.
- Mine's not either. - A bastard?
- Yeah. - Why don't you reach out?
(Izzy wails)
- Russell's kind of scanning the room, just.
- You look over in a corner and you get the sensation
that you are being watched.
You've not made like a surreptitious entrance to this place.
- Okay. Okay.
- But you see that he sort of massages your shoulder.
He goes- - This is disgusting.
- "No, it's good." - That's a $200 pour
of whiskey in the '80s.
- Okay. Jeff...
Make it taste good. (Ify laughs)
(Izzy gulping)
- Do you have uppers back there?
- Oh my God. - "Yeah."
- We're gonna need to balance this out.
- Absolutely. - We're gonna need
to balance this.
- He goes, "You want an eight ball?"
- Yeah. - "All right."
And you see he turns around- - Let's get to it.
- And he, so he heads out
and he sees- - It is good.
- He comes over and goes,
"By the way, tickets to the photo booth."
Slides it over. - Thank you.
I search my mental inventory for kind of
how this is gonna work out. Is it an elevator?
- Yeah, it's an elevator. - Sick.
This place rules.
- So you see, he goes over and says,
"Well listen, I hope it works out with you and your ex.
And I have to believe there's hope.
Kyle's having a great time in Tampa right now.
And I hope he finds what he's looking for.
I hope you do too."
- Have you found what you're looking for?
- No.
But you have to hope, right?
- Do you wanna go on a date with me?
- I was gonna ask you if you wanted to fuck
in the bathroom.
- Wowee. - Dude, the covert operators
arriving at a bar this way.
- You guys go over to the picture booth
and see that there's a little place
to sort of insert the tickets that you've got.
- Okay. Great. - We're gonna take
some pictures? - Yeah.
- We could pretend we're outlaws.
- Let's see if they have that filter.
I start scrolling through and put our tickets in.
- You put your tickets in and (mimics thumping)
With the curtain closed,
(Brennan imitates whirring)
the entire photo booth,
you watch the floor just suddenly start rising up
as you begin to lower down.
As you do, you're in a,
you're being lowered and there's glass on either side,
like deep fuchsia lighting
and there's silhouetted dancers dancing behind glass
as you move down through the display.
- We can go clubbing.
- Gay bar.
- And you go through and you see behind you there's like-
the window opens up and there's like
a three story dance hall like in the cliff underneath
that is behind you in the glass.
And there's a guy on stage being like,
"It's Lord's, ha!"
And you see it's Tom Jones.
- Oh my gosh. - What the fuck?
- Are you kidding? - It's Tom Jones.
- Like Tom Jones real Tom Jones
or Tom Jones did a cameo in this movie when it was made?
- Oh.
- You sense that this may be fictional real Tom Jones.
- Okay, well I'm not there.
(Brennan laughs)
- But yeah,
people going nuts in this club
as fictional real Tom Jones.
- Wow. - Again, you've got it.
So J-Kwon real in the movie,
Tom Jones was in this movie cast.
So he has a fictional double of himself
living forever in "Never Stop Blowing Up"
who he could become.
So if he came here, he would be himself
but in the avatar version.
- You're telling me they don't have appletinis here?
I mean, it's a freaking joke. (Jacob laughing)
- So you lower all the way down
and you see that as it does,
you open up on a beautiful like concierge desk.
You see that there are embossed guns
and rifles in this beautiful marble top place.
There's like a small ficus, beautiful like gold mirrors,
like flicked with gold everywhere.
Deep red curtains, kind of looks like the lobby
of like the Ziegfeld.
Those old very fancy theaters.
And you see that the concierge there
who sort of steeples their hands together
and says, "Hello, welcome to Lord's."
And you see one of their fingers
is just the barrel of a gun.
- My goodness. - Welcome to Lord's.
- Thank you.
- Are you coming to us for the first time?
- No, I'd like to go to my room please.
- "Of course."
And is still not saying your name.
They just slide 777.
- Want to go to my room?
- More than anything in the world.
- Okay, but just like kind of see what kind of stuff I own.
- Yeah. Yeah, yeah. - Okay. Okay, great. Okay.
I just wanna make sure, I want clear communication.
- Yes, yes, yes. - Okay.
We walked down the hall to go to 777.
- [Izzy] And I can stop this if I want.
- What? - And I can stop,
I can stop this.
(Jacob hiss laughing)
- I just feel like I'm learning so much more
about your divorce on this trip.
I didn't really know that you left him
to have a hot girl summer.
- Yeah. - Paula, I'm sorry
you didn't get to have a hot girl summer.
- You head to room 777 to find what you can of the life
of Jennifer Drips.
Who's the next squad up to the front door?
- Yeah. Yeah.
Yes. Me and Kingskin walk up.
- Do we also hold hands?
- We'll lock arms. Yes?
Hey, we're here to hang.
- Give me a Hot four.
(die banging)
- [Ify] Ooh an 11.
- [Ally] Blow it up. Blow it up.
- Blow it up. Blow it up.
- [Jacob] Bang, bang, bang, bang.
- Is that a d20 in Hot?
- D20 in Hot,
that makes so much sense. - Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot.
- 20! - No way!
- [Brennan] Okay. Which is it gonna be?
- Gimme gimme. - That's right.
That's right. - Put 60 on the clock.
Put 60 on the clock. - Run! Run!
- Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry.
Hurry. - Okay.
You're the GM for 60 seconds. You got it.
- Oh, so they're like,
"Dude, you're so fucking cool.
We fucking love Vic Ethanol.
Here's my gun."
They give him the gun,
they give Kingskin the halberd.
They're like, "Here, y'all go in.
Y'all have a good fucking time.
And as a matter of fact,
if anyone comes in here looking for you,
we're gonna fucking kill 'em.
So they're fucking dead. They're fucking dead."
(stuttering) And they say, "Just so you know,
if anyone touches Jennifer Drips, Vic Ethanol,
Kingskin, Jack Manhattan,
and this greasy guy, G13, you're fucking dead.
That's the new rules of the club."
They go on the- - And Greg Stocks.
- "And Greg Stocks, Greg Stocks."
They go on the intercom
and they're like, "Yeah, Greg Stocks."
- You got four seconds.
Do something cool.
- And then they cum, ah.
(Ally cackling)
- Oh my fucking God. (everybody applauding)
- If anyone comes here, we'll kill them.
- I just didn't want you to run out.
Even though you were- - Incredible.
- Yeah, yeah. - I cannot believe
that bit me in the ass right away.
Right away.
So you see, yeah.
As you walk through the door,
each of them bent over holding their crotch going, "Ah."
(Jacob laughing)
- He was so hot, they nutted. (everybody laughing)
- They're like, "We'll kill anyone who comes for you, ah!"
- They immediately broke the rules
about saying people's names.
They just all were like, "Vic Ethanol!"
- This is who all of you are!
This is who all of you are!
- Says every one of our names. - On the intercoms.
- And if, let's just.
Okay, for first and foremost, bustin' makes me feel good.
- Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
♪ Bustin' makes me feel good. ♪
- And if you got a nat 20 on a Hot check,
everybody also cums.
- Everybody also cums. - [Rekha] Okay, yeah.
- I like that as canon.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Okay.
So that is a 32 Hot check. - Unbelievable.
- That was awesome.
- That was insane. - That was fucking awesome.
Wow.
I cannot believe that paid off literally right away.
♪ Bustin' makes me feel good ♪
- I want a picture of my face when I saw that 20
and I want it on my fridge.
- And I doubled it because it was a double bust.
- Oh, double bust! - Oh.
- There we go. - Hell yeah. Hell yeah.
- Wow. Holy shit. - Never stop busting.
You walk in, so go ahead
and write in like your inventory.
These are like super hollow point wild-
Like each of these bullets costs $400.
These guns are so well made.
It's like ivory handled sharp shooters.
And you have a full halberd.
- I don't know what that is.
- A halberd is a polearm that has an axe blade,
and sort of a vertical spike and a horizontal spike
on extension. - Okay, great.
Also, Liv looks at Wendell so impressed.
- Yeah.
- And then Kingskin also hands
the door people a handkerchief.
- Unbelievable. - Clean yourself up.
Friends are coming. - You walk in
and just see the guy behind the bar go, "My man,"
and leap over and come in, boom, gives you the hug.
"What the fuck are you doing back in here?
I thought I heard that you were running
some wild fucking super drug for the Empresario."
- Yeah, but someone came in with my stick
of dynamite so I had to pick it up on the way.
So if you've seen anyone come in with like
a bunch of dynamite...
- Well you know, if anyone comes here to fuck with you,
we kill them, and we break all of our rules to do it.
- Yeah. - Even rules about being kind
and courteous to each other professionally.
- Yeah. - That wouldn't come up.
I don't see how that would stop us from keeping you safe.
But if we had to, we'd break that rule too.
- Hell yeah. - Yeah, I wasn't sure
if this was like one of those John Wick places
where the assassins hotel you can't kill,
but I guess it's not.
- Yeah. - Well you know
what's interesting is we do have
that rule where it's like assassin hotel,
you can't kill.
People break it all the time.
It sucks. - (laughs) Sucks.
- I was just find, you know?
'Cause like I was so curious about it where I was like,
why did everyone keep breaking
the you can't kill people rule at the hotel?
And then someone explained to me
that that rule's actually everywhere.
- Oh. - You actually can't
kill people anywhere.
- Oh yeah, that, yeah, when you think about that.
- So it's like they're already used to breaking that rule
pretty much all the time. - Right.
But I thought it was like a creed, like.
- Yeah. - [Brennan] It is.
- Honor.
- "Fun facts.
Stick of dynamite, stick of dynamite.
There's a craps game going on
down on floor seven.
If you head down there, think some
of the McCoys are down there," which, you know,
some are like your criminal, like sort of
your wide-ranging posse of these like roadsters.
Says, "Some of them might know something about a stick
of dynamite coming in
if you go head down and find them.
But let me know if you need anything."
- What's your name? Are you allowed to say?
- I'm Beef.
- Beef? - Yeah.
- Oh that's nice.
- Yeah. Hell yeah. - Nice to meet you.
- So you guys head over to the photo booth, descend.
You get down to the concierge station,
you see the concierge looks up and says, "Oh Vic." Bam!
And the finger shoots.
(Ify laughs)
- Kingskin hands another handkerchief.
- Thank you.
- Oh my.
(Ify laughs)
- His finger is his penis?
- His finger's his penis, his penis, his hands.
(everyone laughing)
- "Wonderful to have you again. Are you here..."
And looks over at Kingskin and says,
"Are you here for pleasure or business?"
- Business this time.
We are looking to go to the craps section,
to get down there and talk to my crew.
- Oh, I understand.
Well head down right this way.
At the end of the grand staircase
you can go down and find the Silas "Snake Eyes"
Montgomery Memorial craps table.
- All right, well I'll go straight to the Silas "Snake Eyes"
Memorial Montgomery craps table.
- You head off down the hallway and begin to walk down it.
We cut back out for our last pair
coming down to join at Lord's, Greg and G13.
- Should we hold hands?
- Be my dang honor, Usha.
(Rekha laughs)
- Go ahead and give me a DC four Hot check.
- All of us? - Oh no, just Greg.
There is no negative result for failure
because Vic already had them all defend you all
with their lives.
- 17. - 17. That's very high.
- They cum a little bit.
(everyone laughing)
- It's pre, it's like.
- Yeah, you go over,
you see that Leon has sort of like,
or you see Fritz has kind of sat down in a chair
and looks really sleepy, and you see that Leon is there
like, "Hey man."
- Nice to see you again, friend.
- Nice to see you, man.
- Shows him the insignia.
- Hey, have a cigarette or something.
- Just completely unarmed at the front.
- Yeah. - You see he goes, "Yeah."
He says, "Do you have any on you?"
Fritz says, "Yeah, Leon right here."
And you see he goes, "Awesome."
- The Bilsons. Shut up, Usha.
- Takes one out.
- Hey it's gonna be a pretty crazy night for me.
You mind if I buy that pack off you?
It's gonna be a pretty crazy night for me.
You mind if I buy that pack off you?
- You're Greg Stocks, you don't need to buy shit.
- [Jacob] I pat him on the back.
- He goes, "Greg Stocks, hell of a man."
- I give him a little kiss on the forehead.
- He gives you a little kiss on the forehead.
- My first kiss in 75 years.
- That true?
- Since the conception of my sixth child.
- How'd it feel?
♪ De-Doo-Doo-Doo-Doo ♪
(everybody laughing)
- In the bar Beef gives you the tickets.
You head to the elevator.
Dancers, music hall. - First kiss in 75 years.
- You get down to the concierge desk.
"Welcome. Are you staying with us for the very first time?"
- I show the insignia.
- Very well. Business or pleasure?
- Business today.
- How can I help you? Can I direct you?
- Do you think we should go to the craps as well?
I feel like that's a classic. - Oh you see.
- Stocks is drawn to the tables typically.
- As you turn to look at him and he says,
"Well I'd be happy to assist you finding
some place quiet and outta the way to conduct business.
The chapel is a very private place
that very few visit here, if you wish to go
conduct some business there.
But that could just be me.
As they say, the wings that flap in the night."
- Perhaps we should get to praying.
- I've got some stored up. Okay.
- Give me Wits. - [Ally] Some prayers?
- Give me Wits seven here both of you.
- [Rekha] 15. - Nine.
- Both of you listen to him say-
- I'm gonna blow it up. - Okay.
- Hell yeah. (bomb exploding)
(electric guitar echoing)
- Oh eight. - Eight.
Both of you now beat it by more than five.
You realize that as he says the chapel,
he says "the wings that flap in the night,"
which is the activation phrase for the Shadow Falcons.
- Yeah.
- And in this moment he only said the first half of it.
- Yeah. Are the most hidden of all.
- Good to see you, brother.
(Brennan imitates falcon cawing very seriously)
(Rekha imitates falcon cawing) - Dang.
(both coughing)
(Rekha imitates soft bird caw) - Dang.
(everyone laughing)
(aggressive evil laughing)
- He swishes the cape around himself and leaves the desk.
- Yep. Yep, yep, yep. (laughs)
- Well cool. So you guys head off to the chapel.
Paula and Russell, moving through Lord's,
you arrive at room number 777.
Walking along the hallway,
you have Jennifer's incredible spatial knowledge here.
And Jennifer's room is not one of the ones
with a large balcony facing out.
It's actually one of the more modest rooms, more anonymous,
a little bit more off the beaten path.
And as you open the door, you hear the hum
because it is not open to the sea
of air conditioning, air vents.
You go inside on one of these deeper interior chambers,
seeing all of the glorious sort of ionic columns
and the gilding and the curtains.
There's like places where there's just red curtains
against the jagged, like, cavern stone
of being dug into the cliff side.
So this weird mix of like rough hewn rock
with red velvet curtains placed alongside of it.
And opening your room,
you are struck like a punch to the gut
with how unadorned and empty this place is.
- Can I check and see what's in the fridge?
Tells you a lot about someone, right?
Maybe some like nice home-cooked
(holding back tears) meatloaf or something.
- You open the fridge
and see the two small bottles of water
and a miniature champagne
that the staff place in every mini fridge
in this hotel, untouched.
- That's it? They don't put anything else in the fridge?
- She must stay somewhere else.
This must not be her primary place that she lives.
Can I search within and know if that's true or not?
- Give me Wits four.
- That's a one.
- Okay. Do you accept that?
- Yeah. I don't want to know.
- Oh, but you have The Ones,
you have the ability to like take half the value
of the die if you accept that roll.
- Oh, I definitely take five. - Whoa!
- Looking around this place,
either it's her primary residence or it's not.
Maybe Jennifer Drips doesn't have a primary residence.
- I think it's her primary residence.
I think she is a fucking lone wolf
and she just doesn't have a nephew.
- You look around in here,
you see that there is a narrow twin bed.
Mattress is, you know, incredible
but it's got these anonymous white sheets.
There's no decorations on the wall.
And you see the places where the decorations
have actually been taken off and put to the side.
Which you realize as a piece of paranoia, right?
Any hanging art could have a camera behind it or a bug.
So bare walls for maximum safety
and a bare life for maximum safety.
- I don't feel comfortable in here.
- Let's go dance.
- Looking around, you see
that there are a couple of sheer black pelican cases
or sort of those hard plastic foam lined casings.
Some of them are open.
You see weaponry within them, equipment.
In the closet, there's another latex bodysuit.
You see that there's just like seven
or eight bottles of baby powder.
- So much latex.
- So much latex. Gotta get it powdered up.
- Yeah. I'd love to go through all of her stuff.
So it's all like weapons.
Not necessarily anything I would need right now.
- Give me Wits 10.
Wits 10 clears what you're looking for.
If you can beat it by five, awesome.
- Okay.
Six. - Okay.
- Oh, can we combine our Wits checks?
- Oh shit. You could do an Alpha Squad.
- Would you wanna do that? - And combine your Wits?
Yeah. What is Jack rolling for Wits?
- D8.
- D8. Let's see what happens. - I just need a four.
- [Brennan] Just need a four.
- Four. - Yes.
- Hell yeah, you get to a 10. Awesome.
- We're both just kind of scouring these boxes
and seeing what she's got.
- Hell yeah. Awesome.
You begin to scour the boxes here.
As you look through, you see a secret compartment
in one of the gun cases.
And as you open it up,
you basically see that there is a slim little manual
for the motorcycle that you were driving, an owner's manual.
And as you move through it,
the pages feel a little bit stiffer
than the kind of shitty paper that those are drawn on.
And if you put two pages up, it suddenly clicks into place
and you see that the matte paper flickers as a screen.
This is a laptop computer disguised as a paper pamphlet.
- What?
- The paper goes stiff.
And you see that, like, there are slight depressions
in the paper cover for a keyboard.
It opens up and you see
(Brennan imitates water dripping)
a little illustration of water dripping across the screen.
- Can I log in?
- You log in, you put your finger and you feel a pin prick,
and a drop of blood goes into the parchment.
- She's so careful.
- It opens up and you begin to see it.
Shadow Falcon Protocol. Archimedes Contingency.
Na zdoróv'je.
Cyrillic. You begin to move further and further.
They all of these open up.
Archimedes Contingency. Shadow Falcon Protocol.
You see the schematics. Stick of dynamite.
Turning, open. Schematics.
Concealing a nuclear bomb.
(deep thrum of suspense)
That opens. The nuclear bomb is a red herring.
It's concealing an EMP.
(electronic whirring)
The EMP short circuits the world's computer mainframe.
(another suspenseful boom)
When it does that, you see
(Brennan imitates computer whirring)
the Belgian flag.
And you see a string of French text
and you begin to look up bank accounts in Belgium
associated with the Belgian mafia.
- They speak Flemish.
- (not as intense) They actually also speak French.
- Oh cool.
- French, German, Dutch, and Flemish.
- Love them.
- Sounds like a fractured community,
but also kind of beautiful.
- And you also see spinning in this place,
Archimedes Contingency,
(Brennan imitates computer whirring)
Belgian double cross.
And you see strings of impossible to parse code.
And then you see a sudden flash on the screen
of two hands put together in prayer. Santo Patron.
And there is a firewall stopped
on this area here in this place.
There is actually a string
of Dutch language in your computer
that you could like zoom into a little bit if you wanted to.
- Definitely.
- You go into that Dutch language portion
and there are- it moves between all four languages.
German, Dutch, French, Flemish.
(Brennan imitates computer scroll)
In the Dutch portion you see
that there is something in a separate folder
that is completely unrelated.
There's only one folder on this whole spy computer
that says "Confidential. Do not look."
And it's written in Dutch.
You see a photograph of Amsterdam
and you see a letter that begins to read:
"My dearest Jennifer,
the time we spent working together meant everything to me.
Unfortunately, I felt that I could never truly
get close to you.
Behind every winning smile, every poised acrobatics,
every moment of you effortlessly moving through air vents.
No matter how much our latex bodysuits touched
you were always miles away."
Signed Matilda Drops.
And you see there is a photograph
of a beautiful woman in Amsterdam.
She's got an enormous sniper rifle on her back and-
- [Ally] My paramour.
- Is this too personal? - This is too personal.
(Alex laughs)
- I think Russell, as Jennifer
does start crying really hard. (laughs)
- Well, all of this is completely useless gibberish.
(everybody laughing)
- Paula, as you say that,
before, when you saw Cosmo Chase
and knew that if Don had come here, that would be him.
Matilda's face looks like she could be Noah's sister.
(Ally sobs)
- Russell...
- You came here to be divorced again.
I came here to be alone again.
I think he's just like really encountering his own...
This is like the comic book version of his like,
very sad life that he hypes himself up
to think is like independence but...
- I thought you liked being alone.
What about all this gobbledygook is making you cry?
- I don't know how to explain it. I just...
- You're the lonely guy.
- What?
(everybody laughing)
What do you mean I am the lonely guy?
- It's your thing.
You don't make connections with people
it's why you're so dang hot.
- What? - Come on!
- That can't be my thing. - Russell.
- What if I told you you're the divorced lady.
- I am. I know that.
I'm screaming about it all the livelong day!
- I'm walking to the fridge. - I know what I look like!
- I'm popping the champagne and I'm just drinking it.
- You take the champagne. - Come on.
I thought that this was your whole bag.
- I don't know.
I think I'm just really feeling the, you know?
It's like I also have one love letter
that got underneath my skin and I also hide it.
You'll never find it in my house.
- In your real home? - Yes.
- Really? - I wrapped it up in duct tape
and yeah, I'll tell you where.
- A letter? - It's underneath the carpet.
Okay. It's underneath.
- Taking duct tape off of a letter will probably ruin it.
- I don't ever want to read it again.
I'm just drinking the champagne.
- Oh, Russell.
- You house the champagne. - Eh!
- I'll drink some too.
- Yeah, we're just getting drunk together
in this woman's room.
- You see,
yeah. Looking at this stuff,
you see that there are, in Jennifer's like casework files,
she's got tons of love letters.
All of them are addressed to aliases.
She's like clearly moves through life effortlessly,
charming marks, conning people, moving through.
No lack of attention.
And if attention was connection,
man, wouldn't Jennifer's life be different?
- (sadly) Yeah.
- Dang.
- Dang. (laughs)
- Yeah...
He's trying to write this down and like,
"I wonder if I can take this note with me."
But writing attention versus connection??
- Question mark. Question mark, question mark.
And looking down, Paula,
you look and see on the little computer screen
that Santo Patron symbol,
there is a bar for a password in it
and above it, it's like a really weird barcode.
And it doesn't look like a sort of retail barcode,
but it's like a series of like stripes
and they're like a little bit grainy to them throughout.
Give me Wits four.
- Okay, is this some sort of other European flag
that's popping up?
A one. - Ooh!
- Do you accept it? - I'll roll a different skill.
- Cool. What's the skill you wanna roll here?
- I'll roll Stunts.
- Hell yeah. - Oh yeah.
- It was a four?
- Four. - Oh yeah, four.
- Amazing.
So you look at it like trying to parse it,
having a hard time... As you do it,
you just bang on it hard with that Stunts check.
- Can I just try and shut it.
(Rekha laughs)
- You slam it shut, a camera-
- I am not trying to give up,
but I think this will do something.
- You slam it and as you do, it goes beep beep.
"In nomine Patris accepted."
And the camera on the laptop
scans the bullet casings in that baggie.
The stripes are rifling from the inside of the casings.
And you see there is something in the rifling
that scans into this passcode.
And as it opens up, code.
From that code, you look and see "Belgian double cross"
sequence, sequence, sequence.
This, like, impossible sequence.
And you see it begins to correspond numeral values.
Four of clubs, ace of diamonds, king of hearts.
And we are gonna cut from there back to the rest of Lord's.
So Wendell and Liv,
you guys head up there is an enormous craps table.
It is solidly within the floor.
Like a solid slab of like felt-line stone.
You see that the outside of the stone has like fossils
and like seashells things in it.
It was like this ancient piece of like under sea stone
carved outta the cliff face.
And within it, felt-lined, stacks of chips,
croupier moving it, red shirt, black vest,
two little like a name tag here and there.
You see at the table,
you recognize a kind of like racing looking guy.
He's got like the A-frame shirt, arms crossed,
talking, looking at the table.
And there is an older, he's got the Van Dyke goatee.
So the huge like handlebar mustache,
sort of like sharp little goatee coming down.
He's wearing a deep green velvet suit and goes,
(speaking French) "Sacrebleu mon frère,
This is a streak for the ages!"
And you see he casts the dice.
He's got a couple pieces of like muscle around him
and you see comes up, hits big. Jackpot.
And chips are pushed across the craps table over to him.
You see he says, "Winner, Mr. Pommefreite."
Pushes the chips over. You see him standing there.
- Chips. Really, Brennan?
- Really? The chips? - The chips.
- Chips from Mr. French Fry? - Cheeky, love.
(Ally laughs)
- So you see that he looks up,
the gentleman with the Van Dyke in the green suit
looks over you and goes, (droll laugh)
(French accent) "Monsieur Ethanol,
I did not think I would see you again so soon.
(throaty and mumbled accent)
And as this none other than Los Angeles crimelord, Kingskin.
(everybody laughing)
- Beautiful. - Well, well, well, well.
Have you come to roll your dice with me?
(Jacob snorts)
- Yeah, I guess we can roll a little dice.
If I can get a little information.
- "Is that so?"
Give me Wits five.
- Okay. That's a four.
(lively music)
I'm gonna go ahead and use two and blow it up.
- Woo! - Nice.
- Boom. (bomb exploding)
Turn that to eight.
That's gonna be a three.
- Okay. You look around.
You see under his coat
there is an enormous bulge in the side of his coat.
Could be a weapon, could be something else.
And you see the people surrounding him.
They got like roadster kind of jackets on,
kinda look like bikers.
Around their neck, curve of their jaw, hairline,
the faintest signs of grease paint.
White grease paint,
almost like they had been in clown makeup.
(upbeat music quiets)
Looks over and says,
"What sort of information can I offer you?"
- I'm looking for a bunch of dynamite.
And I think your dyna-mite have some answers
to where that is. - That rules.
That fucking rules. - Liv is like "Nice!"
- "Well I dyna-mite. I dyna-mite not."
- You just stole his.
(everybody laughs)
- Oh wait, hold on. Let me, can we run that back?
(fumbles in French accent)
I'm dyna to find out. Frick.
- It's okay. It's your second language.
- It's my fifth.
- Oh sorry. - Oh oh!
- I'm Pommefreite.
(everybody laughs)
- Period.
- (laughing) Period.
- Most people think french fries are French. They're not.
- What are they? - Belgian.
Do you guys want to play craps with me?
(everybody laughs)
- Let's do it. - Sure, yeah.
- All right. Great.
- Liv is like, "I haven't gambled before
but it kind of seems like something I might love."
- Yep. Yep. Let's actually play.
- Accidentally starts losing it.
(Alex laughs)
- Pommefreite rolls in 11. - Oh oh!
- Oh, what are we rolling?
- Let me look up how craps works.
(Ify laughs)
- Oh, we're actually.
- You win if a seven or 11 roll
or lose if two, three, or 12 roll and that is craps.
- What kind of?
- Any other number of the rolls becomes a point.
So, one of you needs to roll a seven or an 11.
- What are we rolling?
- Two d6.
- That's a three.
- A six.
- Okay.
- That's not what you get. - So if we were playing craps,
we would either keep rolling till we get a three again
or if we hit a seven or 11, we bust.
Or you can do bets
on which numbers we would probably hit again.
I'd suggest a five. Fives usually come up a bit.
I watch a lot of gamblers on Twitch.
- Wendell, wow! You keep amazing me.
- Once again you've amazed Kingskin.
You see that Pommefreite says,
"It seems I won."
The croupier goes, "No one placed any bets.
(everybody laughs)
You guys aren't allowed to take your own dice
and roll them on the table.
You have to wait for the dice to come around."
- Okay. Sorry. Well, so I take some cash out.
Exchange it for some chips. - Hell yeah.
- Yeah, same with Kingskin.
- Looks like we're buying it.
- Pommefreite says, "What if we make it
a little more interesting."
- Oh. - Okay.
- It was my first time and it's already interesting.
(Jacob and Ify laugh)
- It's your first time playing craps, Kingskin?
- Today.
(Rekha laughs)
- If you win,
what do you get from me?
- I have a big guess that that bulge in your pocket
is that dynamite we're looking for.
- Well, this dynamite is very dear to me.
(Alex laughs)
- Is it? Is it?
'Cause it was mine, so how is it dear to you?
- This was not always yours, Vic Ethanol.
You double crossed us.
We hired you to move those sweet Mercedes
and you took our dynamite that we need for our plan.
Our criminal plan.
(everybody laughs)
Okay. So, okay. If you win, you get the dynamite.
If I win... - (vague French accent) Okay.
- If I win, what do you think, Jester?
- And you see that the other figure turns around and says,
"You both have to kiss on the mouth."
(record scratch) (music stops)
See, Pommefreite looks really uncomfortable,
but doesn't know how to speak up in this situation.
"Ah, sure. I was thinking more money, but okay."
- Yeah, I guess we'll do whatever it takes, I guess.
- Yeah, I mean look... - We'll do whatever it takes.
- Kingskin is open to that. Yeah.
- "All right, here we go."
You see that Pommefreite's gonna roll.
Again, seven or 11, he wins.
(dice clattering)
That's a seven.
- Oh!
- This dude's getting money.
- This dude is really on a streak. I should go to Vegas.
- Are these real rules or what?
- I think this is how you play craps.
- You're doing it.
- We're doing it. We are doing it.
- 11. - 11. Okay.
We'll pass it over to Vic.
- Okay.
- Now, we're just real gambling.
- That's seven.
- Oh my God. - Oh!
- Craps.
- Whoa! Double. Oh wow!
- Gambling is awesome! - Gambling is awesome.
- You're like drunk and on a bunch of coke.
(everybody laughing)
- You can pass that back to me.
- This whole feeling gives you a rush?
Wait 'til you roll the dice.
(everybody laughing)
- So you see that Pommefreite looks at you guys
run the table and goes, "Dang it.
I wanted to win that game of craps."
- You wanted them to kiss?
- I also kind of won. Maybe everybody gets what they want?
- Oh, we kiss and you give us the dynamite?
- Sure. Yeah. - Okay?
- We all rolled. We all rolled the number.
- Okay. Oh, okay.
(everybody laughing)
- Vic Ethanol and Kingskin, smooch on the mouth.
- Okay.
- Is it okay if I put my hand here?
- Yeah. Yeah.
- Kingskin puts- - My hands on your hip.
- Oh yeah. Kingskin goes for the shoulders, I guess.
(Ally laughing)
You're shaking.
- Whoa! What's this technique?
(everybody laughing)
- (quietly) I don't like being in the middle.
(everybody laughing)
- You guys get so, so close
and as your lips almost touch, you see Pommefreite says,
"Book it real quick while they kiss."
and starts to run away.
- What? - Son of a bitch.
- And they take off. They start running down the hallway.
- But you see Liv is a little bit sad
that the kiss didn't happen.
- [All gasp] Ooh!
- You guys take off.
- You guys take off. We cut back to Greg and Usha.
There's a very quiet chapel, some stained glass windows,
most of the panes of which are clear,
but a few are like blue or violet in this small chapel.
In this like assassin's hotel,
you see that there is a sort of a couple
like figures of saints around here
and looking out over the ocean, you see cresting waves
like a distant palm tree off
as like the cliffs kind of curve around
to form a little inlet.
See on like the far, palm tree sort of sway.
And as you enter this place,
I'm gonna need Wits five from each of you.
- Five. - Okay.
- Nice.
Ooh, five.
- Hell yeah.
You feel that you are being watched
as you enter the chapel
and not only by the eyes
of these somber and sorrowful saints.
- Can I do like a tech scan to see what technology
or what eyes are around us?
- Yeah. Give me a Tech check difficulty eight.
- 11.
- Okay, you detect
that there are some very high-tech gadgetry in the room
and walking out from behind the door, you hear,
(British accent) "Well look what the cat dragged in.
You old dog."
And you turn around and see St. Jude,
who looks at you and says,
"Lawrence, I found you as soon as I could.
Well, who's this rapscallion
you've drummed up from the depths?"
- This is my other brain.
- I'm his nephew.
- All right, so bring your nephew
to work day at the Santo Patron, eh, Lawrence.
- My sister's got diarrhea in the hospital.
- Really? - I pray for her.
- Related or unrelated?
- We're related.
- I mean, is that why she's at the hospital?
- The diarrhea-
- It's related because we're my sister's-
- This morning she woke up with horrific diarrhea.
It dehydrated her to the point
where her skin was sinking into her eyes.
I called the hospital-
- Where her what? - (no accent) Her skin
was sinking into her eyes?
- I called the hospital and they said,
"You have to get her here in 10 minutes or she will die."
She's on diarrhea life support right now and I pray for her.
- We'd like to have a moment of silence.
- Give me Hot 40.
(Jacob laughs)
- What?
- I believe in you.
- Why are my checks so crazy?
- (laughing) Because you say the craziest shit.
(everybody laughing)
- Okay, that's a two.
- That's a two. Okay.
That's a two. Take your Turbo Token.
So he goes, "Lawrence, my good man."
- So nice to see you.
- Che bella.
- Ciao.
- Ciao ciao.
(Rekha gasps)
- Are you all right?
- I shouldn't take big breaths.
I have a small lung.
- It's one.
- My nephew only has one lung. It's quite petite.
- Well.
- It's so nice to see you in person.
- Absolutely. - It's been so long.
- Not since the events of last night.
Lawrence, how goes it? I got you a message
and came as soon as I could.
- Everything's topsy-turvy, inside out. Backwards, forwards.
- Were you able to find the Empresario?
- Not yet. Cold on his tail.
- Well, cold on his tail. Hot on his face.
- Has Santo Patron been compromised?
- What ever do you mean?
- Are your systems safe?
Has anybody tried to get into your systems lately?
- Give me Wits right now.
- Can I also take a Wits?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Gimme Wits as well.
- Nine - Four.
- Can you blow it up? - No.
- He looks at you sort of confused.
"Santo Patron being compromised.
What the devil have you heard?"
He goes, "Do you mind if we depart
from your nephew for a moment?"
- It's okay, Uncle Greg.
I'll pray for my mother
who has anemic dysentery.
- All right.
- You just holler if you need anything, all right?
- He walks over with you and leans in and says,
"Concierge mentioned to me.
Are there any observations you've made recently?
Do you have any opinions,
perhaps about wings, my old friend?"
- I know that they can be hidden.
- And which ones are the most hidden?
- The ones in the night and they make a noise.
- Yeah. Oh, the noise they make. Sweet music.
- Say it at the same time.
Three, two, one.
- [Both] Flaps.
- Very good, Jude.
- This was a test?
- Just making sure we're on the same page.
- Well we are.
You are leading your nephew to believe
that Santo Patron has been corrupted.
- He doesn't know anything. He's a kid playing ball, man.
He wants to fucking go super sayian. I don't know.
- That's not the '80s.
- He says, "We need to move quickly
if we're going to get the surprise on the Cardinal
and the other saints.
I've seen what the Falcons have planned.
It's glorious.
It's something this world has never seen before.
It seems-"
- I just wanted to make sure somebody was excited as I am.
- Oh, I'm thrilled.
Listen, concierge mentioned that you came in
with Vic Ethanol and Kingskin.
I know that they've been working with the Empresario.
We were trying to move the Adrenanoxinil
out from the Mercury Facility.
We got hit by that goddamn Damian Bane, those Warrior Kings.
We need to kill Damian.
- Mission understood.
- He leans in and goes, "Incredible.
Vic Ethanol and Kingskin...
You've brought them into the fold.
- They might as well be saints themselves.
They're on the side of God.
- For the time being.
Most beautiful angel of all fell, Lawrence. He fell.
- Who? - Lucifer.
The devil. - Hell yeah.
- Sorry. - Hell yeah.
I need something though from you.
- What do you need from me?
- I need my deck of cards.
- Why? You'd be better off destroying it.
- We need it. - Whatever for?
- I need it as leverage.
They don't believe that I'm in all the way in.
- I see. - There's some loose bolts
that need to be tightened.
- Look, Jennifer Drips just checked back into the hotel.
I need to go find her and kill her.
She took Haldwell's pass. It was in the Mercury Facility.
We thought that we had her, but-
- You can't get in without the pass? You need it that bad.
- I mean, Haldwell's dead.
So at this point, you know,
hopefully the FBI has already moved the clearance.
But what I'm saying is, earlier today I discovered
that Jennifer has been double crossing us all along.
I knew it. She always double crosses everybody every time.
- What if I could get you in? - Hello?
- [Izzy] Oh, you're listening.
(everybody laughing)
- Hello! Hello!
Oh my God! Oh my God!
Literally, Oh my God!
(everybody laughing)
- Are you startled? - I am.
Okay. Can I? Yes.
- Sorry. - Yeah.
- I had to go to the bathroom.
You were talking for a long time.
So I was edging my way towards the door
and then I stopped at one of the pews
because you were talking still.
So I held it in.
But then I heard the last part of what you said.
So pretend we're there.
What if I could get you into the Mercury Facility
without a badge?
- Wow! That would be a very fine how do you do.
Seems that you know more
than just that your mother can't stop pooping.
- Yeah. My second skill is technology.
- Well, you absolute little freak.
(Rekha laughs)
If you can get the Santo Patron into the Mercury Facility,
then we may be talking about a very rapid canonization.
- And you don't touch Ms. Drips.
- You see, he turns around and says,
"I'm afraid Miss Drips is simply out the question."
- Why don't you leave her to me?
- Ooh. - We go way back.
- Go ahead. Give me Hot, he's gonna roll Wits.
He's got a d20 in Wits.
I'm gonna roll this right now.
- You wanna combine? - Yes.
- 'Cause I have a d20 in Wits.
- I have a d20 in Hot.
- Well, yeah, you're rolling Hot.
- [Rekha] Oh, Hot. I got nothing Hot.
- He rolls a 15 for Wits. You're rolling Hot.
- Oh! Just a five.
- Four.
- Once per episode... - Does that blow up?
- I can blow it up with two tokens.
- Great.
- Five, six. So that's a six.
- So you have five and six. It's 11.
But they're only a d8. So you need a four on this.
- Seven. - Seven. Okay.
So you see, he looks and says, "You can take her out?
Well, maybe you already have." (laughs)
- (laughs) Jude. - Yes.
- You can gimme what I need and I get you what you need.
- Hell yeah. We just rolled a Hot check.
But I'm gonna ask one more of a DC 10 Hot
to get these cards from him.
- 19.
(everybody cheers) - Oh, I'm gonna blow it up.
Okay, we blow it up.
Go ahead and roll again. Boom.
- 17.
- Oh my God! That is a 37.
He takes them- On that incredible roll,
he goes, "I was going to have to give them to you anyway.
You're the only man who can do it."
And you don't know what he's referring to here.
Go ahead and pass the cards. Boom.
- Before we depart, can I pull him in?
- Yeah. - Really close.
- Yeah.
- I know where like our mic setups are and I cover it.
This better be worth it.
If I'm turning away from everything I've ever known.
You better assure me it's worth it, Jude.
- Shadow Falcons, they're going to change this world.
They've shown it to me.
They might change it for the very first time.
And you see, he backs out and goes, "Best of luck.
I'll need that technology before the sun has risen.
Farewell, Lawrence, I shall see you in paradise."
He falls backwards out of the glass window
and you hear after several seconds-
(bang)
- Dead.
(Ify laughing)
- He dies?
- You look down, he appears to be dead.
- What?
- [Rekha] Can we tell if he's dead?
Can I tell if he's dead?
- Give me Wits four. - [Alex] What?
- Five. - Five.
You look down and see him at the base of the cliff going
(breathless groan)
- I shoot him.
(everybody laughing)
Put him out of his misery.
- Yeah.
(Ify and Izzy losing it)
Give me Weapons four.
(Izzy laughing so hard)
- Don't think about her.
- Eight. - Eight.
- Oh that's a blow up. - Blow up, baby.
(bomb exploding)
- Three. - Three. Okay, that's 11.
So you see, he just fell about 80 feet.
He just, and you fired down with one bullet
just through the head.
And you see a smile on his face.
And you see in his last moments,
he fully believes that his life is not over.
(Rekha gasps)
- This is so fucked up. What's going?
This is so deep.
Look, my brain, Andy's brain, not deep. Wide, not deep.
What is it? I'm not sure.
Was that it? Did I do it?
He said a thing. And that's what?
And so hold on.
There's 15 governments and they all are different
and one of them is good, but we are trying to be good.
And so maybe the good one's bad and maybe the bad one-
But there's multiple bad ones.
So if they're all bad and then who's good?
And then I'm, this is it. And then that's a thing.
And then the juices and there's so many juices.
And I'm like, but what if...
we just fucking chill?
(Brennan laughs)
But that's not it. Right?
And that's my instinct is to fuckin' kick back, baby.
And it's like, maybe you get it.
(suspenseful music)
Fucking dang.
- I am unbelievably tired.
(everybody laughing)
You can't imagine what it is like to be so old.
- I can't.
- And people think it's, you don't wanna change.
I can't. I'm so tired.
I can't read a manual on a computer 'cause I'm so tired.
Everything that man said,
I'm supposed to help him, but he's dead?
(Izzy and Alex laughing)
He said I need the technology by-
- He had so many plans and he was so stoked.
And now he's just gone.
- And then he drained life out of himself.
And how am I supposed to help him when he's dead?
I'm dead. What are we doing?
- There's men who dance for fun but crime.
Every car. - Listen.
- Every car is good.
- I used to be a criminal
because during the Prohibition, I made my own alcohol.
- You were not- (laughs)
- I made my own alcohol. And I didn't live here.
I wasn't allowed. I was in India. I didn't live here.
- They didn't let you in. Let them in.
- I was making my own alcohol. I was shipping it over.
- Yeah.
- I was a criminal. I understand the lifestyle.
- You were a criminal? - Yeah. For a time.
- And you understand the lifestyle.
- It was about a week.
I understand the lifestyle in a big way.
You get a thrill.
You know, I was a mother of four at the time.
- Crazy.
- I need you guys to stop.
- Last thing. Look.
You know I've been playing it cool,
acting like I knew exactly what was going on
this whole time.
That was an honest moment between me and you.
When we leave this chapel,
everybody's gonna think I know exactly what's up.
- I'm never gonna tell anybody anything.
You're the smartest person I know.
And listen. - That's a mistake.
- No it's not.
Listen, I saw a lot of people go down on the Titanic.
I warned three.
(everybody laughing)
I said don't go.
- You said don't go but you saw it.
- I said don't go, and then I saw it.
(Alex laughs)
- In India.
- I saw it. It was far away but I saw it.
April something, and I saw that stuff.
I told everybody don't go. That's from British.
And my friends weren't allowed to go anyway.
So they didn't go.
(everybody laughing)
- You're making me more confused.
- What I'm saying is I've seen a lot in my life.
I've seen smart people make bad decisions.
I've seen bad people make smart decisions.
You are smart, you are capable of so much more
than you know, Dang.
I see that in you now and I've always seen that in you.
It's just whether or not you wanna see it.
- I could say the same exact thing to you.
- As you leave this place, we're gonna cut back to Jennifer.
We cut back to Russell and Paula.
Paula, Russell, looking at the screen,
you see that within the Shadow Falcon database,
the Belgian mafia, (scoffs) that's a red herring.
EMP inside of the nuke, inside of the dynamite.
When the Shadow Falcon Protocol is executed
will run a program launching the EMP,
and as it depowers the world mainframe,
it will reroute all of the money in the world
to the Belgian mafia, but it's a front for the CIA.
Also see that the Archimedes Contingency,
which was constructed by the KGB
to thwart the Shadow Falcon Protocol,
has a back channel code that is ciphered
through an impossible algorithmic numeral sequence
that can only be constructed
by a perfect Belgian double cross, which is,
a specific shuffle of a deck of cards.
Shuffle of the deck of cards produces the numeral sequence,
which is the last thing they need
for this Shadow Falcon Protocol to go off.
- Now we know. - Okay.
(everybody laughing)
- After talking to no one.
- Paula takes the computer and she is drunk at this moment.
And she goes, "Alexa."
(Rekha laughs)
- Paula, Paula. Hey.
- Cosmo Bronx. Where's Cosmo?
- The rifling on the bullets from Cosmo's murder
comes from a sequence of powerful handguns.
And you see that as the schematics come up
on the butt of the gun,
it has like the arrows and olive branches
of the bald eagle of the United States,
but the bird is not an eagle, it's a falcon.
- Okay. I don't know the difference between birds.
What did Cosmo know?
- You can always decide to know.
You can always decide to know.
- I don't know anybody's phone number.
- Shadow Falcon.
- This information you said.
- The Shadow Falcon killed Cosmo.
- Yeah, because he was looking for it. Right?
Okay, so what did he know?
- Great question.
- I'm trying to ask the computer.
- Give me Wits eight.
- A one. Blow up. - [Ally] Yes.
- Boom. - Bang bang.
- Hell yeah. - Okay.
- Go ahead and roll your d10.
- Three.
- Okay, so that is 11.
You look and you see Cosmo's case work
sniffing around the edges of the Shadow Falcons
and their work here.
And you suddenly see there is a contract
between Santo Patron and the FBI.
But what you see is that the FBI contact is Haldwell.
The Santo Patron contact is a man known as St. Jude.
And you begin to see that what Cosmo was unraveling
is each of these factions-
that the Shadow Falcons are a criminal faction,
and they consist exclusively
of members within law and order factions.
So they are moving throughout the FBI, throughout the CIA,
Shadow Falcons moving money from all over the world
to a front in Belgium that goes back to the CIA,
all of this happening underneath the noses.
And you see that there's this last thing
that Cosmo was chasing down,
which was Adrenanoxinil Plutonium Sulfate,
Mercury Facility, Carter Haldwell.
And looking at it,
it just says "Securing the supply for Falcon number one."
And then you see there's another thing under it.
Just lists a device called
"super bomb."
And underneath super bomb,
and you see there's a schematic
for a syringe going into a bomb.
- They were going to use Adrenanoxinil in a bomb
to soup up the bomb or is this?
- And this is saying that the government is bad.
- Yeah.
(everybody laughing)
- But that's not right.
- Check any domestic violence number.
- What?
(Ify laughs)
I'm law enforcement.
- If you were any more law enforcement,
we probably wouldn't be friends.
- We're friends?
- But you're Walgreens law enforcement,
and that's okay with me.
You carry a pepper spray gun normally, thank God.
'Cause in this world you've shot maybe nine rounds
of bullets at people and one car.
- Okay.
- So we just got a lot of information.
(Jacob laughs) (upbeat club music starts)
- We're gonna cut back to Wendell and Liv.
You are running after Pommefreite.
You see a number of these Belmont killer clowns
whip around and go, "Don't come any closer,"
and you see that a man in a bellhop uniform
with a scythe decapitates all four of them.
- [Izzy] Oh!
- A person in, like, a cleaning outfit comes out
and kicks Pommefreite so hard in the head
that his skull flies into different pieces
and his beard and mustache pop off his skin.
And you see, they look and say,
"Always looking out for you, Vic."
- Thanks.
- Hey, anyone that can make Fritz and Leon cum that hard
is a friend of ours.
- They're usually no fap.
(everybody laughing)
- No wonder they came so hard.
- So what was gonna be a fight scene
is resolved with 60 seconds of GMing.
- So sick. So sick.
- The bellhop with the scythe goes, "Your dynamite, sir."
- Thank you.
- Boom. All six MacGuffins for the first time.
- Oh, I really wanted to try out this halberd.
But you know, it's kind of cool
seeing everybody do the work for you.
(Rekha laughs)
- One killer clown jumps up and says, "I'm not dead."
Go ahead and gimme a Weapons check.
- I'm not dead. I'm not dead.
- [Alex] Oh, it's a one. I'll blow it up.
- You'll blow it up.
- A 10 - Oh, d10.
- Eight. So 16.
- 16. Hell yeah.
- Should I blow it up again?
Nah. 16.
- I'm gonna make a Tough check. That's a four.
The guy jumps up and says, "I'm not dead."
Describe what happens.
- Kingskin just on instinct slashes this guy.
And then it's like, "Oh shoot.
I kind of wish I knew what he was gonna say."
- Slash, throat slit, looks up and goes,
(choking on blood) (tender '80s music)
"I loved every second of my life."
And dies.
- That's fucking good.
(Brennan laughs)
- And then Kingskin closes his eyes. (laughs)
- He looks so happy that he was a killer clown
who was in a secret gangster casino
and jumped up and got his throat slit
by a crime boss with a halberd.
You see him go like, "Every second of this life,
I did exactly what I was supposed to be doing
and it ruled every time."
- I hope I get to be like him. - Yeah.
Lucky for him. He gets to do it all over again.
- You only made it like a few steps
out of the gambling hall.
You see everyone sort of salutes,
takes off hats, puts it over.
Saximilian wails on the saxophone.
- [Ally] Of course he's here.
Of course he's here. - Of course he's here.
I'm gonna say that you guys convene at Jennifer's room.
So the squad reassembles here, all six of your MacGuffins.
- I tell them everything that we learned,
even though a lot of it was like crazy
and different things were red herrings.
And it's kind of like slippery.
- Honestly, too much is happening, I think.
- Yeah.
- I'm kind of sputtering out
like I was in the previous scene.
I won't do it again.
But it's like they're 15 levels, man.
- [Rekha] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- It's like, they wanted me to kill you, man.
- As you look at it,
all of the things happening in "Never Stop Blowing Up"
are quite complicated.
But in terms of the real world of Lake Elsinore,
your six things that get you out of the world,
you have them.
- Now we just need Barsimmeon.
- Yeah.
- Well we have this phone that can call him.
- Yeah, let's give him a ring.
- I shouldn't call him. Should I?
Usha is shy.
- We all know that as you're just doing it
while saying that.
If we don't say anything, - I'm shy.
- you're going to. - No, I couldn't. I couldn't.
No, no, no, no, no. I couldn't, I couldn't.
No. You're all being crazy.
- Oh, ho, ho. You have Damian Bane on the line.
- Hi Barsimmeon.
- Oooh, my real name.
- It's Usha from the video store.
- Tell me Usha.
- The old lady. - What are you wearing?
- Oh, four cardigans. A lab coat.
- Stop. You'll make me bust.
(Ify laughs)
- I have a slowly melting- - Get off speakerphone.
- Benadryl. I'm fully melting.
I got a slowly melting Benadryl under my tongue.
- Ooh. That's not the only thing
that could slowly melt under your tongue.
I've got some antihistamines as well.
Shall we partake?
(speaking French) Bon chance, mon ami.
- Oh, Spanish...
(everybody laughing)
Barsimmeon, I have good news.
The good news is we have all our MacGuffins.
- Oh good. - Yeah.
- Good to hang on to those.
Absolutely. You don't wanna lose that.
- Second good news, we wanna leave.
- (sadly) Oh!
- Yeah.
- I'll pop you out, but I actually wanna finish this ride
'cause it's going pretty cool.
Me and the Warrior Kings, we just beat the Viper Battalion,
and we're fucking stomping ass here in the rainforest.
- Oh, okay. How long do you think that'll take?
Because I think some people are itching to go home.
You know, I haven't seen Lisa in what feels like,
I guess 50 years, but might only be 90 minutes,
- "94. Well, why don't you, yeah, just jump on down here?"
You see he sort of rattles off a string of coordinates
and says, "Do you need me to send a transport helicopter
to you or are you by the ocean right now?
Maybe you can get up a freaking speedboat and race here."
- Oh, I'm sure no one here
wants to drive a crazy speedboat, right?
- Yeah, we will definitely ride the speedboat.
- Well, everybody seems to disagree with me,
so we'll arrive on a speedboat.
We'll be at these coordinates as soon as possible.
If you could have a little bit of food waiting.
I think everyone's probably hungry.
- Oh, great. Yeah, I can make that happen for sure.
- Okay. I don't know.
Is this random?
Do you, maybe when we're outta here,
do you wanna maybe grab like a tea or a water or something?
- My stomach can't handle tea in the real world,
but I'll have...
You can come by my place and treat yourself
to a nice tall glass of water anytime.
And then after that we can drink out of the faucet.
- Together? - Yes.
- The same faucet? - If you like.
- The kitchen faucet? - I'm not following.
(Rekha laughing)
- Okay. We'll see you soon. - Cool.
- I heard the fourth floor is a blood rave.
- Ooh. - Yeah, who knows.
Maybe there's some vampires,
maybe there's just a bunch of blood.
Who cares, man?
- I'm gonna get Beef and let's dance.
- Hell yeah. You guys split up.
You guys go the fourth floor, absolute blood rave.
You see that there's someone coming in
like slick black pleather
and there's like just blood coming down.
You see someone goes like, "Are these vampires?"
And you see that a guy leans in with two fangs
and goes, "It's vampire time."
And you see the person starts crying really hard
and he goes, "No, no, no, it's fine.
It's fine. It's cow's blood.
It's not real vampires, it's cow's blood. You're fine."
And the person sort of like weeping
he takes off to the side
and you see big vats of cow's blood in the corner
that are sort of sprinkling around everybody.
- Oh, I actually don't really like this floor.
(everybody laughing)
- You guys wanna go check out the other?
- I like a pink one.
- Wanna go to the pink one?
- So remember when we were in the elevator
and there were regular people dancing with lights.
- Opening the back door,
coming out in a full like sequin red suit is Tom Jones,
who walks out.
- [Jacob] I forgot!
(everybody laughing)
- I forgot.
Help yourself to these drinks.
- Can Usha go to the business center of this establishment?
- Where there's free printing?
- Yeah. You go to the business center.
- Okay, Usha has been trying to rack her brain.
What was I supposed to learn from this disgusting hacker?
And I think the only thing she has learned is that,
you know, time marches forward.
Even if you refuse to change, time will keep going.
And perhaps she's missing out on certain things
by not changing herself.
So she wants to type a letter.
- I'll go with you.
- Hell yeah. She wants to type a letter.
And she says "Spot me."
- Definitely.
I'm just doing like just drinks the whole time.
But I'm in the computer center with Usha.
- Love it.
- And she's typing one finger at a time.
Takes what feels like days. - Amazing.
- And then she hits print.
This is like the first thing she's typed on a computer.
She wanted to hand write it, but she's typed it.
And she doesn't know if Lisa exists in this world,
but she folds it up into an airplane with Lisa's address
and sends it out the window into Los Angeles.
- Paper airplane with a letter to Lisa
(imitates paper airplane taking flight)
takes off.
- I think what I'm supposed to learn here
is that I need to change a little bit.
And maybe part of that change
is I should accept help from Lisa.
- Oh yeah.
- And not try to...
I've lived in the same house forever and ever
and you know, your kids move on.
When you age, everyone around you dies and leaves you.
And you just wanna keep something the same,
but maybe that's more harmful.
- Looking over, you see there's like
a sort mad super-scientist in the corner
who's also like working
on a sort of project near the printer.
He's like "Nice.
That's a beautiful paper airplane that you've made there."
- Thank you. Oh my god.
- Sending out little messages. It's what we do.
- What are you sending if I may ask?
- I'm getting quotes from contractors on
if you can build a lair in a volcano. It's expensive.
- Wow. - Yeah, I'd imagine.
- Do you have family?
- They got blown up by bombs.
(Ify laughs)
- Do you have anyone? Have you sought chosen family?
- No, I went right to volcano lair.
- You should come with us to the dance level.
- Blood rave?
- No, no, no. We decided against that one.
We're gonna go to the pink room where people are normal.
- More normal. - Yeah.
It's a little normal. Just lights and dancing.
- Normal stuff. - [Brennan] Great.
- Do you want to do like a quick coding bootcamp
or you feel like maybe typing the letter,
throwing it in the ocean was like very nice.
(everybody laughing)
Baby steps.
- We move from here to...
Is there anything else that people do at Lord's before?
- I think Liv hasn't quite like gotten her lesson part yet,
so she's just going buck wild in the blood rave.
- Yes. - [Brennan] Wow.
- Like slamming drinks, like bathing in the cow's blood
and like kissing everybody around Kingskin.
- Unbelievable. - Everybody?
- Everybody. - [Ally and Rekha] Everybody?
- Who's in that explosion ring?
- Yeah. Who's in that blast radius?
- Wendell, what's Wendell doing?
Is Wendell down in the blood rave too?
- Yeah, I'm down at the blood rave.
- I'm gonna need both of you to give me Wits eight.
- To know if you kissed.
- My goodness.
- That's a one, I'm gonna blow it up.
- See if either of us remembered.
- Boom. - A five.
- Five. Okay.
- That's a six. So eight plus six.
- 14. - Yes.
- Okay. So I'm gonna say this.
You are just slamming and like making-
but it's a blood rave so it's hard to see
what's fucking going on in here.
But Wendell, you actually do see
who you are making out with that night.
Do we think that Wendell and Liv,
that Kingskin and Vic ever meet in the blood rave or not?
- Yeah, yeah. I go up to Kingskin.
It's like this mash of like kissing
and then there's this moment where it stops
and Kingskin and Vic are looking at each other
and Wendell's like, "Do I..."
- I'm pretty, I'm pretty gone right now,
just so you, just so you know.
But I think you're great.
I think, you know,
I think I might have a lot of feelings for you,
but I think I'm going through something.
- Hey, and I'm definitely gonna give you space for that.
And I'll wait till you're sober to kiss you.
(everybody vocalizing elation)
- And Kingskin does not remember this conversation.
(everybody laughing)
- So Vic, you just watched Kingskin fucking go ham.
- He's so gentle. - In a blood rave.
- Yeah, totally. - Gentle as children
in a fucking blood rave. Dang.
- Dang is just like in the corner talking to a vampire
being like, get people to believe
that you're little different.
Do people ever not believe that you're a vampire?
- I'm from "Dracula."
- But do people not believe you though?
- But if you are a creature of the night,
then you revel in your macabre strangeness.
- Can I? Okay. You know what?
How many big titty goths do you know?
- Oh man.
- You're new?
- I feel vulnerable.
You are sort of asking vulnerable questions to me.
- I do wanna point out,
he has that big booty cheek hairstyle.
- Yeah, he's got the Bram Stoker.
So he goes like, "I don't know.
I guess I wanted to be freaky and be a freak.
And I left the sort of normies to go be a freak,
and then I got here and I was in freakville,
but then I sort of discovered
that everything I was sort of rebelling against,
I found a deviation from it.
And that deviation is sort of policed
as intensely as the old status quo was.
So am I a freak, or am I a fucking cog? I don't know man.
There's as many rules to vampire land
as there were to fucking Sunnyvale High. So what the fuck?"
- You know what, man? I feel like I was just a bummer.
We could all just have sex.
- There's some parts of being- Wait, right now?
- Jesus Christ.
- It really is the '80s back here.
We cut to a speedboat racing across the Pacific Ocean.
All of you blood, cum,
ash, soot, explosion marks, speedboat.
(driving action music)
(Brennan imitating speedboat engine)
You tear off towards the Amazon rainforest.
Go ahead and give me a Drive check.
(Jacob losing it)
- We speedboat to the Amazon.
(players chatting over each other)
- In the middle of Brazil.
- Difficulty 10 Drive.
- [Jacob] Probably take a-
- All right, well I rolled a one,
and I'm gonna accept it and take 10 of those Turbo Tokens.
- Oh, yes. - Oh my god. Okay.
- So we drive. - We drown.
- Can anyone else roll a Drive?
- Sure. - Can I?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah you can.
- So Vic is driving and then at a certain point
you see orcas and you are in Alaska.
- Fuck. Okay, someone else take over.
- I got a 12. What is that? - 12. So you head back.
You've been driving for - And we're out of fuel.
- a couple days.
You guys end up like having to hunt tuna
in the ocean to stay fed.
It gets pretty grim, but eventually you hear the sounds
of the Amazon rainforest.
- You did not.
- You hit the coast of Chile so hard
that you jump the Andes and land in the Amazon rainforest.
- Hold on, we're jumping the Andes.
- [All] Whoa.
- Boom. You land.
- I drove in the first car.
- And you jump the Andes, you land in the Amazon
and you see all around you, a destroyed encampment.
Like Jeeps blown up, tents riddled with bullet holes.
And you see a couple of commandos walking out of the shadows
and at their head is Damian Bane.
"Well you made it. Bravo.
Well done. Well done." - [Ally] Thank you.
- Congratulations. One and all.
Exceptional, exceptional work.
I take it you've been driving and fighting
and shooting and blowing up and by the look of it,
maybe blowing up in more ways than one.
- Yeah. - Paula.
- I guess I had some bowel issues.
- Yes, I've had a lot.
I've had some-
- Good times? - What?
- Oh yes. - Oh!
- We raw fish.
- We ate raw tuna.
Can you take us to baby Bolsonaro?
(Brennan laughing)
- He looks over and says, "Well, let's go get ready."
You walk into the tent,
you see that there are huge crates of ammunition,
big like jungle sort of environment here.
You see there's a small television set up
that's showing a White House press conference.
President Hancock is there, still talking about the nuke
that was blown up over the Long Beach 5000, being like,
"We are gonna find out how they were able to go that fast."
And you see that Barsimmeon turns around and goes,
"All right, well it's a pleasure.
You never stopped blowing up."
And you see pulls his MacGuffin, pair of dog tags, goes,
(chill '80s synth music)
"Let's have them blow up all the way out of here,
one last time."
(music suddenly stops)
(television static)
(long no signal beep)
(television static)
(eerie silence)
- Uh...
(suspenseful violins)
How are you all still here? What's going on?
- That's how it's supposed to, so you just say it?
- Maybe do it.
- Oh. It's probably.
- Could it be. - You have to maybe like.
- Do they have to touch?
- Engage!
- Does one of us have a fake one or something?
- Engage.
- Do I have to do all the cocaine?
- Maybe we have to kiss.
- Give me Wits 10. - We all have to kiss.
- Usha's horny now after the fact.
- What? - Wits 10.
- 12, I blow up.
- 12. Blow up.
- [Rekha] 10. - Boom.
- Should I blow it up or? - Yeah, if you want to.
- Blows it. - Blows up. Boom.
- One us gets a 20 and they narrate that we go home.
And the show's over. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
(Izzy and Ally laughing)
- Cool. Look-
Those of you who beat a 10 on your Wits check...
Everyone else who didn't make it take a Turbo Token.
- [Jacob] Oh yeah.
- But for those who made it,
as Barsimmeon looks around confused, you are looking around.
You see he kind of looks at the Shadow Falcon Protocol
and he goes, "What's the devil's that?"
- This is the Shadow Falcon Protocol.
It got whirred up in the beginning,
but we were able to make it
so the internal parts are all working.
- It's just weird. I've seen...
Haldwell I've seen before.
I've never heard of Shadow Falcon before.
I've been in this movie a lot
and I've never heard of the Shadow Falcon.
- We explain everything to him.
Archimedes? - Archimedes Contingency?
No, I haven't...
Did you guys unlock a different part of the story
than I've ever heard before?
- Is there a sequel?
- No.
- Does the Shadow Falcon Protocol
have the characters in the movie figured out
there's a real world out there?
Is that what this is about?
- Well there's no way.
I mean if you tell people they're in a movie,
they tend to have their nose bleed and get hit by lightning.
Did this St. Jude seem to...
Did he say he was in a movie to you?
- No, we never...
- He didn't think he was gonna die.
- Yeah, he seemed so ready to go.
- For those that beat that 10 Wits check.
You look over to the television
and see President Hancock
who's talking about the nuclear explosion say,
"We are not gonna have any more nukes blowing up.
My fellow Americans, we are gonna tighten up around here.
We are going to-"
- Dave.
That skin leg motherfucker!
- That's Dave.
- So Dave has a MacGuffin.
- "Tighten up," and you see that Barsimmeon looks and goes,
"Not all the MacGuffins, it has to be the whole group."
- There's one more.
- It's the president?
- Dave became the president?!
- Look, we are going to figure this out.
(gunshot)
Brain explodes. Barsimmeon is dead.
- [All] No!
- And that's all for this episode of "Dimension 20:
Never Stop Blowing Up."
Tune in next week, motherfuckers.
(Izzy screaming)
(bomb exploding)
- Hey boys, I got the Shadow Falcon Protocol for you.
- Silo, don't do it. That's beans.
We got briefed on it earlier.
And you see he goes, "No man, that's more sky."
- Upon seeing this, Wendell no longer believes in God.
(everybody laughing)
- Cock-a-doodle-doo...
- I do crime whatever.
- Without our siblings, we are nothing.
- [Brennan] Firing straight down the force of the bullets
impacting on the ground propels you skyward.
- We're on your side. So let's take these guys out together.
- Vic Ethanol, you crazy son of a bitch. We're in.
- Pretend that's Don's new girlfriend up there.
Yeah, us oldies gotta stick together.
(everybody laughing)
- All right, let's suit up.
- Fuck all of you!
I'm tired of doing everything for everyone else.
- Dark stormy skies.
Storms over Washington DC.
There's something sinister at work here
in the nation's capital.
Senator Skin coming to work.
And you see one of the guys goes,
"Senators don't work at the White House. It's a fib."
(Brennan imitates gun firing)
- Doug, if you die or when you die,
just know, you got six people who are always gonna be like,
"Remember fucking Doug," and then we're all gonna smile.
- You sink a fist through the side of his skull
and crush his brain.
And as it does, you see,
(brain matter squelching)
you pull it out and you watch the tape rewind.
And he goes, "Nah-uh-uh."
- This is a good movie.
(upbeat '80s music)
(synth music continues and fades)
