Transcript

Last tie a no latency. So I open up the star. I kind of beautiful minded where I close my eyes and I could see all of the possibilities of the branches. My purpose just to rescue and Destroy arisaka and I'm going to do that. At least retro. Did you hack into the turret? I got to and I got them trained right there on the elevator. I look into this training cell. I like I got an extra grenade, I'm throwing their make it a later. Can't just do this to get.

Out of doing dishes on uh oh he's adorable. Guys, this is a savanna Panther model. Oh no, no, and I think we've done the best we can. There's everything. I'm fucking scared today. Everything's coming up, jab. Yeah, as you says that, I'm gonna Jam a knife, grenade in his mouth. The door bursts open, Bendel and Jeb role evasion. Oh God, tell rolls at 26 on a Bayesian spicy. Jab on the other hand has still not rolled evasion.

I'm trying to find it sold. It is in the middle details, automatically in a Foundry. You both avoid. Mendel going south, Jeb going north. Oh and they're bursting through the door is a zero. Can we do this? Another time we're come out. We're kind of busy other things. I can see that and you still have to turn that before you take back your precious friends. How do you know that? Checker. General manager. All right. Jessa and it's van Del's tourniquet.

A 0 is the closest Target? Yeah, so here goes nothing. Okay, this is what's going to happen. Wendell is going to charge at a zero and kick him backwards with the palette leg and then deploy. The pop Shield. Oh nice. Okay. Okay, in front of the door to Domino, right? Okay. Great. As long as all that makes sense. Does make sense a zero roles at 23 on evasion, stepping out of the way towards retro and Jeb but van Del manages to put down this barrier anyway, hear that?

Yeah, that works. So they put it down. So now in order to get to Iona and Domino and back into training they'd have to go around the hallway. Over s is corpse. I own a you You and Domino hear this crash outside and you have and they'll release the thing. You feel the ground shake as the portable cover shudders. Into the ground Jo is out. I hold my action to grab the star as soon as It's done and shoot.

Anyone who is not an ally, who tries to come through the door, nice, 80, rolled a 15 on their initiative, which means they're neck and neck for sports are now, which is to be expected. You just I'm going we should both go to the same time. A oh I think goes first Joe and they come to a tax on oh jumping towards him. Look grabbed him by the arm and swing him around role evasion, he Asian 23. No, he's very good. 25 mins you to the ground.

And you see the black goop pour down, one of his eyes and slide back into his mouth. As if it's sentient, doesn't feel much like home don't feel at home and you're in my head. Well, that's disturbing me smack you across the face causing 19 damage 019. Oh no, yeah, he roll two sixes. And unfortunately he smacks you hard enough, he damages your eye, your left eye, whoo, and it has a crack across the center of the panel now, and you have a minus 22 all ranged attack.

Oh crap, okay, I is damaged, is he grappling me? Yes, he is graphically. You are now on the ground, rolling around with him. All right, bubble. I trust gonna make it hard to hit. I tried to get on top of them. And punch him in the face to. All right, roll rolling thunder. He rolls 22 and you just keep rolling together. It is a melee attacks. If you wanted to try and attack again, you totally can hold still you doing fuck. He rolls 20 on a vision and he

just keeps rolling around. You didn't hit you back, but now, unfortunately, for the rest of you there's been a bit of a Sano Shuffle and it's not a dance. You now can't tell, which is which unless you're really, really close and can see the Black coming out of his eyes, they didn't want. Hmm didn't didn't want to get like his I fucked up. So just look for the one that has. I put the tiny crack across the

eye, okay. Well as his eyes are digital so it's hard to see well, but if I remember correctly, one of them is quite Haggard and the other one is the normal father amount of haggard God for shirt. What? Just take it off. Your shirt. Take it all off. I'm busy at the moment. Take it out. That dude is right. Take it over. I'd heard addition to rip it off like a professional wrestler. He's grandpa on my turn. I'm gonna go up and I'm just gonna grab his shirt and rip it

from mine. Oh yeah, we can't tell which one it is, so I think, yes. So Roll, Roll Roll, Roll something to rip a shirt off one of them. Rolling is what you rolled. Okay? Just kind of working out. Yeah, you go to grab the shirt. But as you grab the shirt, what comes off in your hand? This black goo. So this a zero can emulate the clothes. He's now wearing the same thing as sonnet. All right, I was going to point the one that I just ripped it off of everybody.

Like it's this one that would take your shirt off. So we can see your tattoo. Do you want any other action? Rip the shut off the other, dude. Before you lose concentration. Yes, cool. Finds here taking off 16, a success. Well done. Yes, you ripped Sano shirt off and his sweaty ripply back there on his neck is a tattoo. What is it? Retro, I think it was Jeb from the blood race but it's done in that cartoon style. Like, with the monster with the big shifter and The Giant Eyes.

That's the water is pretty cool. That's our sauna. Damn. That is pretty cool. So shoot, the one that doesn't have Jeb on it, and retro, that's all of your actions. Do you want to move away? No. Can I actually get started? I would like to move away towards the computer Banks. Okay, because I'd like to see if they've got any. Free are. Okay, roll for it. You're all the 29 on perception. These machines are water cooled. Fuck, I'm gonna try to pull some tea to shit.

They are Subterranean. So they don't need to be called that much. It's more about size, so it doesn't matter. Those matters, not, it's ven, Dells, turn. Stay sit behind this cover. I think that because the dog is still up here. Yes, it is. Vandals gonna come around and shoot a dog. So stepping over s is corpse. They shoot hitting 417 7 damage to shoot again, hitting and causing how much damage 11 damage.

Nice, that is all that's under half Health, blows off are forced to the ground and actually pretends to lick the broken arm as part of the programming. Yeah, I hit it piece of shit. Good job. And then Darrell that moves out of the way because Avondale. Thank you. It's getting better every day. What your shirt is off? It is 0 and that's I like your tattoo. Is that new? That's later, I'll have to be temporary. Thank God. So now it's your turn. I look at the office and I say careful.

I have C4 on me and I have a Detonator. I can press it. We all go down so you best get off me. Hey, let's go with you. I'm walks backwards. A few policy for I guess. I got nothing left. It keeps walking backwards. I guess that's just something I have to deal with, isn't it? And he steps on S is corpse oh no! Look what happened. And black pours out of this leg and bleeds all over the construct.

Is it seeps through the body? It weaves its way through the body and up through the head, which reassembles as a owes body, disintegrates into the construct itself. A construct comes back to us and they're covered in goop. Is a 0 and S together. Let's see if the boss had another health bar. I will say, all of you recognize this is really big. He looks big and dangerous. Iona the download yes. So as soon as the download finishes I slam the briefcase shift shut.

And I opened the door as you open the door, the portable cover is stuck to your right and you can hear this clicking sound as the last words of what Jo just said happen. Oh fuck can hear, then they'll expect it. I run the opposite way of the the cover. And I try to get around to the elevator. Okay. Yeah and that's that's it. On your turn. You make it about halfway there. And you can see retro standing in disbelief, here's a shocked

expression on this screen. I mouthed the words run to him, I look at the bruises robot Panther, I look at the giant a oh, right? Gu s, they turn around and they see retro like I gave him a look. Oh no, not that luck. It's a smile. It's a very small, simple smile and a nod. And I run over to S, and I get out my heat blade, and I try to jump on his back and like, stab it into the creature Row for it.

23 of AIDS for the 22 roll. Again, 20 gun, he evades with a 23 Did you think you'd get me with a stick as I slammed into the wall? You see run run. I'll distract them. So we run in are we shooting or are we running away while shooting run? He said run I don't want to but I think we have to okay I run but I do shoot on my way back. All right 21 you hit causing 16 damage. That was it's double six double

sixes roll the damage on that. So the First hit one of his arms snaps into and black tendrils, grab around it and turn it into a longer arm. It is now a flail that's not good. I think we should run. I'm right behind you. The Savannah. Panther goes to attack. It's got a pretty bad arm. Broken one a bit Spurs. It's only got one of these attacks. Then Del has to roll Invasion, beat a team. The blade goes into a part of their side as you want to use a inspiration, I will use.

Yeah, I will cool. Echoing good. But the same roll twice. Yeah, fucking kidding me. Yeah, Ben Del gets hit or 16 damage, ah, fuck but the robots, so, damaged that it only manages to attack once and it is s astern. It goes to attack with this Flay alarm at Sano. So I know role evasion and roll hired in 2014, the flail, I'm hits you square in the chest and you fall to the ground. Round taking 19 damage. Shit. You below half Health? Yeah. All right.

I rolled five broken rib. At the end of every turn where you move further than four yards on foot, we suffer this critical injury and bonus damage directly to your hit points, will take damage again, so if you move more than four feet there and then he goes to shoot at Van Del its pen down. Nine damage, which I think is below their armor. Can I take it instead? Can I try and yeah, some of it. Yes, you can, okay? Yeah, he failed me in the room

in the chest. I have broken ribs, I see a pot of God, I run forward and you just shoots me in the back. There's a, you feel the bullet, go through you and fall to the ground and you fall to the ground to, but managed to get back up because you're a badass, then Del is not hit. It run. And it is retro Stern. I am going to try to shoot a grenade with my grenade launcher attachment. What? Not the grenade. I'll just do the zoo. My assault rifle at the panther here. Okay? 20, that does hit.

Yes, 17 damage which is finally enough final bullet goes through the glass. Viewfinder, the body gives out a bunch of servos. The Heat and the whole thing sprays out like a banana peel and gives off a little smoke and it Jitters as it tries to reset the gun twist Pop's. We were beating Savannah, nice hit petrol also run. Do you run to the elevator? Yeah I run to the elevator with my hand prep to over the button. Waiting for nice everyone.

And it's Pendleton reluctantly I believe and do would run sauna. Jeff we have to it's okay go. I'm right behind you. Thomas no problems. Okay so no I swear to God I really thought I got through to you. It's okay. I'll be there and then Del makes it to the elevator. Iona, it's your turn runs to the elevator. Get into the elevator and vandals their son is just behind us. We're gonna wait retro. No, we're not retro. We're going to wait. No we're not.

I mean I died. Gotta run into the elevators. Well you look back at Sano is he's just in this fight with S & A 0 and you will get into the elevator before. Jeb turns around, I give him a look and I mouth go as soon as that happens I have already hit the button to have us. Go back to the elevator closes and so on 0 and a 0 and S are

left alone. In the basement of this era soccer facility, the elevator heads up and you guys head to the top of the black or ject area of this building and run towards the elevator. I am alone with this thing and I laugh. What's so funny? Used by Perfection. I'm amused by this whole thing. I'm amused by what you are that? I am a spawn from something, so vile. And yet, I was able to make friends with people so good. It doesn't really make sense.

Does it? Why I was able to meet such good and fun and interesting and heroic people was around, I raise my hand, my figures on the sea Fort detonator. Because we're stopping arisaka, everything they make it's going to burn, their perfection is going to burn. What's funny, is that they caused it because they made me

any last words. S. father, this is how you treat your creates a Yeah by murdering because that's what I was made to fucking do and I press the button, you hear a sequence of beings as a moment of absolute peace as s holds you by the chest and it's you up You see the explosions far away from you go off first? It's the whole area is engulfed in flames. Your last moments are looking into these eyes, as they bleed black in the elevator.

The rest of the crew without you are heading up the Elevator Shaft. Do you feel the Elevator Shaft Rumble? No. Luna. Oh, I'm going to hold vendor. No. He said he was behind us. Promised, there's some there was a lie. But he promised, I know. Vandal, he knew. He knew what he wanted, he knew he had to do. And, you know at the end of the day, We can't make that decision for and Jeff like wipes. A few straight.

Here's the elevator opens to the rooftop and there's Sloan Standing On Top of the vehicle now. There you are, girl. Come on your fart bro. Hug Sloan flies past you into the elevator as you will pour out. Oaks inside looks at back at you were confused. No and Jeb gets down on his knee, kind of beckons her towards him. Now, baby girl slower Sandoz saying was not going to be joining us anymore. Nah, don't say it like that. He would have said, goodbye fee afiya. if you had the chance,

nice. All right. It's all right. He's gonna be just fine. Sloan slumps their head down and slowly walks towards the flying vehicle. Come on, girl, let's go home. You all pile into the flying vehicle. Only you're sitting in the Pilot's seat, iona's just getting their bearings once again and by getting their bearings. I mean trying to find pilot air vehicle. Now, you don't have to roll anything. Well, I owe no gets her bearings

again. Everyone ready you promised as she takes off the vehicle flies up disappears into the clouds. You freak Domino from arisaka as you pull away down at the bottom of the building. You see a woman dressed in black jumping between different. People slashing and Blasting as they do flips and stunts. Finally Being caught by a blade their arm severed. They fall to the ground and scream. Henna is dead.

The Flames have engulfed, the bottom of the building, and you see people exiting through the fire exits. Emergency vehicles are on their way, but you're already long gone, seeing the Carnage from the distance. You touched down at Crystals by Joy, no side of the bar. There's a return tuner command built into the computer if you need to hide the flight vehicle. If yes, we do, you hit it and after removing yourselves from the vehicle, it flies off. You guys go inside and head into the bar.

And as you step inside ping is just standing. You can see how nervous they are what's going on. Did you get to murder? I am picking the star. Oh my God. The down is going to take awhile. We don't have the bandwidth arisaka, had retro. I'm going to need your help. Arisaka are probably going to come after us. They still want Sano. Of course. So it's a no, it's a no, he's not here. Is he taking the vehicle back? He didn't make it. Oh, I'm sorry, I'll go hard. You always made it home.

Thank you for saving Domino. I'm so sorry. It cost you a friend? I'm so sorry. Iona. That's okay. I don't think you like to be very much anyway. And I honor not just go sit down in a booth. And the room feel still. hey, you guys I'm sorry. I probably could have made the thing, download faster or something. Maybe that would have helped, but with Domino paying, you know, we Domino back. We got, we have a way to really make things change. Yes. But was it worth it?

I mean, is this Miracle Man? Someone who I've barely met for more than two minutes to really work the laugh of sandal Who the hell is this? This God. That's so important. Absurd thing I could I could go for a little will drink if you don't mind. Sorry, I got a little hot there. I yeah. Well. This is the final Jump Then. That I pay you for. Now that Domino's back.
