S2E87 - Coming Crew (Halloween 2024)

The final destination is in sight, the crew gather themselves and head to the source of the signal, great rolls and even better choices are all thrown into a pit when they don't heed their own warnings. Seems Steve Zero has prepared some tricks for the crew, and if they're not careful they'll find themselves in for a treat...

Should jeb run straight on in?

Can Retro drink a can that fast?

Will Vivi have to do a little more than first aid this season?

Only the dice will tell.

Transcript

Last time on no latency. We got to find tuna. Where is he? Yeah, I guess he just went right on in. Everybody's gone, right? It's. A bit morbid, but that's the case. I will keep that in mind. Thanks Tuna. We should. Get in the van and go to the side. I'm driving. That's copilot stuff. What do I feel Remember? What do I still gaslight me? And like anything old gaslight, it definitely takes us 15 minutes just to get to a door. Oh no, Bang Bang jab.

No bang. Bang, we're gonna get whipped. Whipped. Yes, when you put it that way. That's a lot of damage. I'm in. Problem solved, mission accomplished and. Jeb, did you just shoot? Who shot in here? We. Thought we had a rule. Anyway, what are we doing here? Strange. Usually our security is a little tighter than that. Do we? Recognize the voice. Steve 0 as your creations forget to breathe. I hang up. Answer me. Why'd you do that? I panicked.

Can you still like trace it? Potentially, but it's going to. It's just going to make it more hard. I could have tracked the IP code on that. Well, that's what that's what I'm thinking. There's probably message exchanges or emails. Couldn't you like find the IP from that and the locate triangulate the location? I mean, you've already got a lot of the data, couldn't you use that too?

Yeah, I'm, I'm with you on that. I just from what I heard when we were walking in was that they were trying to take some kind of compound and I wanted to know what it was they're trying to take well. I We. Would have been able to have more information. Well, if you put two and two together, they're using body fuel skin, that's probably they need more of that compound and. This is the way they. Conceived. Yes, we we also need it. So we we should.

We, we should. Oh yes, OK, yes, stealing is probably the best point here. So nobody knows that I took it. I I wouldn't know. I I don't steal anything from Biotechnica. I love stealing. It's, it's kind of like one of the best things. It's one of the things I'm good at. That and racing. Yeah. That and racing and I'm making friends for life, am I right? And I. You are right.

Stick out of hand to Vandel. So with all the information that you've gathered retro, you've got the three different signals from these three different receivers and the extra data from this tile on the lap of this inanimate Zeve. You rolled a 26. And I'm going to tell you right now, this triangulation check is a high DV. It's a DV of 18. But we did decide here in the little House of GM that there is 4 different outcomes to this

choice. Oh. Yeah. And as you click into this signal, you actually hear a little bit of the signal over your radio in that static with your with your 26, which I'm going to consider a crit success, even though it isn't actually a crit. You can hear, you can hear Steve 0 complain. They know. That we're coming. Well, now. Now they know that I'm. I know. That they're, they're going. To come here, maybe it'll just be a matter of time before they find out so you keep an eye on

the ping signal. God. All right, it's time. It's gonna be OK, all. Right, so. Make sure you activate all the traps and don't forget the poison dart lot 1 like you did last time. What do you mean it's broken? If you want to, if you want to have insight on anything that was just said, please roll human perception. Otherwise, deduce yourself. Wow. Was it on loudspeaker? Yes, it was. Oh, no, Yeah. I mean, yeah, it came out of my face. Of course it's on loudspeaker.

I have a question. Yes. Because all tiles have cameras and Remy Rolda current success, is it possible that it was also access to the camera and it played on his face? On Retro's face. Yeah, like, like, like the your CIA agent that's assigned to watch your your phone. Yeah, they didn't put the privacy cover over the camera for it. All right, well. Yeah, because, because Remy's receiving it in their head, right?

Yes, unfortunately I just rolled A9 very, very high, and so that means all you really get is an upshot of Steve Zero's chin and a ceiling. But the ceiling is made of green shipping container material. The other thing that you get with this signal, by the way, is the location of where the signal is coming from. You're all 26. Of course, you know where that is. It's in North Knight City, on the outskirts of the corporate district. Yeah, yeah.

So we got quite a bit of good information on that bit then. Iona, as you look at the video, you also notice a pimple. Oh, that's it's, It's postulating. What? What's postulating? Oh just T 0 is needs a face wash. I can understand, kind of. There was a time when my face just broke out all over. I was young. So this I was young. To be young. This Steve 0 What's what's his deal? Oh. Phoebe you don't know anything about this. Phoebe.

So do you remember the the gold guys that were running around ruining everything? Yes. The Steeves. The the Steeves, yes. So they they were clones. I don't know if you know that. I assumed they were all copies of somebody named Steve. Well, this is the original, the OG that's. The Ogi thought like he was dead or something. He was imprisoned. By us. And we may or may not have let him out on accident, kind of. We did not let. Him out, we forgot. Let him out, we just forgot. Which is.

OK, yeah, we made a mistake and we we grow and we learn. And everybody makes mistakes. I didn't realize it was like Pat Rawls. But also we we had a button that made his legs go all floppy, but it's not working anymore. It was very funny. No, it was fun. That was fun, I will admit. So what's our goal with this Steve Zero? He is faux. We do not want to. He is foe, that's for sure. He's foe. I'm not sure why we even kept in

to begin with. I think that was kind of early in our careers and we kind of thought that maybe we could keep him as a pet or something. Not exactly sure whose idea that was. You were supposed to feed him, Jeff. It was because he was an expert on clones and we needed his advice. No. Well, yeah, remember, because we need to. Because of you know that our friend who had. Some some clone business.

Issues. Yes, some business with clones and so we, we we cause Sawtooth used to work with them. So they worked together to to to work out more things about clones. Right. Yeah. But but he's kind of served his purpose by this point, so we could probably dispose of him. I think so. That's kind of what I'm saying is that there is no reason at all to keep him around any longer than he already has. So we're going to demonetize them then? That's correct. Yeah. I think that's completely fair

to do at this point. Hope for a callback. That's A Season 1 callback and a half. I haven't barely said that anymore. I try to. I try to sprinkle it in every once in a while. Like on copies? If you like on cupcakes. Especially when you eat the whole wrapper, it's really something else. When you eat the whole thing, you know the The best part is if you take the top of the cupcake where the icing is, flip it, tear it in half, flip it upside down so it becomes a sandwich

and. Then you just put the. Whole thing in your mouth. The whole. Like wrapper and all. Yes, did. You just did. You just teach me how to make a cupcake sandwich. Yes, they did. It was something my grandma used to do. She also ate the wrapper. I think that's probably where I got it. I mean, it is very fabrous, so it's not the worst thing. It's it's also good luck if you eat the whole thing. If you if you you only get one cupcake. That was the rule. So you better make the most of it is.

That how you make your luck get up. I just use a long rest. It's a long, long rest. Well, as we debate about cupcakes making our way back to the making our. Way. Downtown. Vanna White I'm assuming we also got what we needed from here. No, I can't pick it up because I I need plausible deniability. So if one of you could do it. This tank over here please Retro. Fine. I'll go over to do it. Jeff can't. Jeff can't grab it because he might drink it. That's true.

It's happening. Against me, you, you, you both, actually all three of you are my witnesses. I have not stolen anything. That's fine, but but you're probably going to have to hold that against you because it's really heavy. And so it's going to. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Do the shuffle. That's good. Do the shuffle. That's good. Get careful in the stairs. Retro. Careful, Careful. Stop. Stop pointing out. Don't. Double step with the only canister of Bobby body feel

skin. Holy. Crap. Do you need help retro? No, I need you all to pivot yourselves out of the room and let me do this. Oh yeah, easy. I get it. Yeah. Because we're mates. Because we're an accent from that show, mates. Mates polycule. It's super weird anyway. I mean, yeah. Where are we going? Retro No one is helping you with this canister and you've dragged it out to the car. Now put it inside. I hi offered. Well, you need to have plausible deniability like other people do. I see.

That's all right. You're all going to get yours later. That's that's for fair. All right, we got this thing. I know we should remember to call for clean up. Oh, shoot. Oh, so right. Should we, should I just do that now? Yeah. Yeah, just just, you know, call. You can do it via text. We don't have to do like a an NPC bit or anything. Just roll for bureaucracy. But what if I wanted to do it? You can if you want, I don't mind. No, it's OK. I don't want to.

I actually don't want. I really don't want thank. You you called me on my bluff DM. I actually really don't. Want to do? It I've already spoken to the receptionist from Ghostbusters once this month, I don't need to do it again. 21 Yes, you get a text message confirming that the location cleanup has been registered. You gained points for clean, working at work clean, and then of course the cleaning itself was charged to your account and it cost 240 eddies.

It also places me here. I did not even think about that. So I dragged this out for nothing. High enough that although you do have to pay once the payment goes through, you will not be listed as the person who called it in since the line is anonymous. But you still have to pay because you rolled over 21. I will give you that. Yeah, you don't have like dark money accounts. Offshore accounts. Not that you know of. No, we don't. Everyone get in the van. I say it.

Was very SUS. Yeah, it's not SUS, baby. I don't know what you're talking about. I really like your costume. Did somebody say that they were talking to a receptionist? It looked just like Annie Potts because I would be very interested. No, it was. It was. I'm not sure who any parts is, if I'm be straightforward with you. Yeah, you wouldn't. She'd probably just ghost you anyway. Let's go away. Not sure what that means. It's a. Ghostbusters joke, Jeb.

That's why that's funny. Oh, I still don't get. It it's OK, we shouldn't really cross the streams anyway. Rummy if you could copilot for Jeb and put in the coordinates that he needs to go to since he can't do it himself. Oh, OK, I'll all right. I'm going to put it on Jeff mode and just really and big in the screen and put it in Comic Sans and just like follow the line. Follow the line.

See, that's the thing they don't, they don't tell you is that you can be great at driving and be terrible with directions. Actually, I I've also input like a little Vanna white with Jeb sticking out. So every time that Jeb makes a, a, a proper turn, you get to, they get to see a little Jeb go, yeah. That's adorable. 28 basic tech Yes you set up this projection sat NAV in Vanna white.

That's way better than the regular 1 giving giving Jeb a + 1 to his driving check if he wants to arrive to this compound silently. I suppose that I do. We we definitely do because when I overheard the doc, they were saying that that we were coming and coming and coming and coming and I don't want them to know what. What? Did they say what is OK? That's a 20, which is a 25. Yes, you arrive outside of the Zeve base. Zeve Base. The Zeve base you've. Come in silent.

It is a collection of shipping containers that have been welded and stacked together. It almost feels like Zeve created this to try and hold you back for as long as possible, but you're standing outside the front of it and there's a door and that's it. OK, first, Jeb, don't touch the door. Also, we know there are traps because Iona found that out. Yeah, that was that was. Thanks, Vidal. Yes, very good. You. I'm glad you were paying

attention to the video. Do you remember which traps they were? Vendel. All I heard was that the poison trap doesn't work well. They were trying. To get to fix. They might. Yeah, they might have gotten it fixed by now. Poison darts, I think. Poison darts, OK. Phoebe, do you have anything for poisoning? I do have an antidote, yes, but. That's good. I have one. Better than none. I also have ginger. I also have ginger ale so if gisner.

L. Yeah, I have Gisner L, So if any of us get upset timings from it, we we could we'll be OK with that. Or, or if we get a, you know, just a thirst for a delicious drink. It is very delicious. Jeb is right, yeah. Also true. All right, so how are we doing this? Reaching clear, I believe no. I was going to say usual reaching clear the huge, the huge. I don't think Dell thing is necessary here. Oh, you don't. Oh, no. Because they know that we're they, they, like they said, they knew.

They know that we're coming. And now we've came. We're here. We're all, if you think about it, we all came together. Yes, as one. Vivi, What's so funny? Vivi's just. Like giggling like. Vivi, have you ever Have you never? Have you never come? No, no, Vivi's come over plenty of times. Yeah, she's. I feel like I feel like both me and Vivi have come together plenty of. Time. I really feel like, I really feel like your costume's incredibly becoming.

Please stop. That's what they said, Phoebe. 'S done. Like personally, I think it's important that whoever you're with. Phoebe, hold on. I got to. I'm going to do a first aid check. Are you OK? I feel like you've kind of been like affected by something because you are laughing way too much. Sorry, sorry, sorry. OK, Stop everybody. Stop making me laugh. Just come over here. Yeah, come on, people. God, please, we're going to break our cover. OK, OK, OK. Come on.

Baby, you're an adult. Do we? Do we knock? And then just when they come down to the door, you know, do the thing. Yeah, just just bust on in there. Yes, this is your specialty. I'm. I'm waiting for your direction, Jeb. Nothing. I'm ready. I'm ready when you are. I'm ready to pull the. Trigger. Yeah, lead. Go ahead, lead. OK, All right. I mean, usually I like it when the people I'm with come first, but I guess I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll go, I'll go in.

We're right behind you, Jeff. We're coming right after. You Bridge and Blair. Jeff, you launch into a room, thrusting yourself in there. You step down the stairs and there is a Zeve on the other side of the room just looking at. You well, Dan, do we, do we even bother shooting these guys or do we just try to find the transceiver firstly? I think we just go right for the transceiver. I think you're right. Let's get it. And I run in.

I can't run very far, but I get about halfway through the room. And Jeb. No, no, Jeb, I need you to roll evasion, because as you get about halfway through the room, the floor opens up. Oh. Not the floor, it's a dungeon, booby. Traps we totally forgot even though we mentioned like 30 seconds ago. Oh shit folks, welcome to

dungeons and randomness. Since 2012, myself and an amazing cast of 18 have been telling stories in our home brew world of Theria. Four different groups explore lost ruins, run for political office, Rage Against a mad king, set sail to long forgotten islands, and so much more. Every group has a different story and flavor, and every season or Ark has a new set of groups and stories, all building the history of our world with every single session.

Literally hundreds of hours of stories are waiting for you as part of the Pickaxe network. Check out Dungeons and Randomness wherever you get your podcasts and we'll see you around the table. So you need to roll high because you said you went to the the you went, you went to this position here. Yeah, you're in the trap. Your momentum is forward. So you need to make a 20 foot gap. Oh shit, I is there. Is there coyote time for a moment?

Do you have mirthful Leap? Unfortunately, no. Athletics evasion, whatever you want. There it is, shit. Woof mate, woof. Oh. Jeb. Jeff, Jeff, Jeff, I've I've I've got some sad news for you. The DV for avoiding the strap was 21 and you rolled an 18. You fall in this pit into the darkness and at the very bottom of the pit. The darkness.

As you land on something soft and gross, there are two red headed boomer thieves in this pit with you, and the one right next to you looks at you, smiles a little bit, and begins to tick. You don't have long. You're standing right next to one of the most explosive enemies you've seen for any Halloween ever. Watch out Jamie. He's coming right for you, Jamie. Be careful.

Don't worry, I'm going to. I'm going to take out my, my bladed, my, my fucking my car, taking up my combat shovel and I'm slicing his head off and then I'm going to try to throw the head up to you guys. So just be aware it's coming. You have a grappling hook, OK. Yeah, but I forgot about that. I yelled it. Well, I didn't hear that. Shovel, yes, 22 but not a crit so you don't manage to get the head above the pit, instead it falls over to the other side of the pit. Yeah, Oh geez.

Separating. From the body, but you did not separate the head from the aerial and it explodes. I have to roll this loading. Double explosion all the way across the sky. Wow, you really popped that 10. All that's bad, All that's bad. Oh, Oh no. Oh, that's that's a that's a crit 18. And when they roll an 18, it means that they do two rings of explosion around them, not one. Jeb, you have an evasion.

You have a place to go. There is space in this pit for you not to get hurt, but in order to do that, you have to roll an evasion that beats an 18. I recommend using Luck well. I've I've too, but also come on jabs. Luck. Otherwise you will take. You will die. 66 damage Oh. Fuck 6. I can survive that. That's no problem. That's. But also I'm gonna use two. I'm gonna use two. I'm gonna use two. Luck. Don't you worry about it. Don't you worry about it.

How did that stay so I can this? Oh fuck. Do it hit? Me. You won't, Jeb. You won't Jeb. You have an inspiration. I gave it to you last week. Yeah, that's right. Just pointing that you won't. You're going to use your inspiration here. I know you are. Yeah, I'm going to use my inspiration here. But that is start telling. The story right now? Oh. My God, Oh my God, that's another great fail Jeb.

You get hit with 21 damage, which in total is 10 damage, singing your your armour, ablating it by three in the process and you have taken a hit. It flings you to the corner of this pit, and the two boomers Eves in this pit with you die in an explosion in the corner. That wasn't even 1/4 of my health. I'm fine. But it was a very big chunk of your armor that was like 3 rounds of wear and tear. Yeah, all I'm saying is that you can hit me harder. Come on. And you're lucky.

You're lucky that first one threw you over because the other one crit rolled a crit success on their explosion. But they're further away from you, so that explosion doesn't come near you. It just singes you as you smell the bodies beneath you slightly crisp and get crisper with the fire that cascades open. That one also was an exploding

dice too. It doesn't matter though, he's nowhere near it, and you're now sitting in the pit, covered in in in flicks of blood and singed piece of armor, and there's a little bit of quietness in the bottom of the pit as everyone steps into the room to look down upon you. Jeb Oh, are you? Are you all right? No. All right, OK, We're we're coming. We're coming. Don't move. Don't move too much. Oh, Jeb. Oh man, this is going to be a rough one to patch up. Yeah, someone throw down a rope

or something. Aren't you OK to come up by yourself? Do you need help? Should we put you on a stretcher? How bad? Hold on, hold on. Do you guys? You guys must have forgot that I had AI have a graveling hood. We forgot just kind of stand just to make sure that it, you know, latches on to the to the lip of the this hole. Yeah. You have to roll for it now. It doesn't like to be. Oh, oh, OK. Because you roll, it rolls your handgun skill. Handgun skill Great that I like.

Yeah, 27, where was that earlier? Yeah, you get out the pit, but you are still on the wrong side of the pit along with everyone else. On the other side is a Zeve that seemingly is not paying attention to you. He is looking at the wall and you're just in the first room of this Zeve base with a singed Jeb. Oh my gosh, Jeb. You. This is going to take a while to patch up. Jeff got really singed down there. Yeah, you really? You really? Popped off that that's what he

gets for coming first. Yeah, man, I I exploded a little early down there. I'm sorry about that. Could we push the other Zeve into the pit? That's a good. Idea to do that? Yeah, I'll just take, I'll just fire off my grappling hand and just pull them into the. Pit. That's fabulous, yeah. That's a great. Idea That's really fun. I like that a lot. 31 yeah. You snatch him and he gets he gets thrown into the pit.

So now all of the enemies in this room have been dealt with and they are in the pit below you. The pit is still open though you can see him on the ground trying to get up. I think I'll just walk around these obviously outlined edges. In order. To. Do that. If you want to do that, you still have to roll up athletics. You could try and close the the floor, but to get around the sides, although it looks like a full square, I just did that for

movement. That is, you have to, you have to roll athletics together around the side. It's not difficult, but if you're all badly, you will fall. I don't know where the where the mechanism is to turn it on or off. You could roll perception and try and work it out. Yeah, but I'm high. When, when has that ever stopped Retro from looking around and and figuring it out? Also, when is that ever not the case? I just wanted to say yeah, but I'm high. Well, it's your job, retro.

Figure out the tech stuff. That's the thing that you do. Fine. You roll A-17 and you see a computer console on the other side of the room that has a wire that runs along the ceiling towards the pit trap. It is the controller for it. OK, so that means that I am gonna have to get across to do that. OK, before I do, is anybody else good with computers and also probably have a better sense of centre of gravity than retro does? I should do a wall run with my sweet feet. That won't go bad.

That that's kind of cool, but yeah. It's a little. Dangerous. Pretty sweet. Is that a no? Well, I. Mean the the the boomers are dead, so we don't have to worry about that. Yeah, I could fucking. Just fall into. If they do, they'll just fall back into the fleshy pit below. True, no Vendel, I think you could wall run. Let's do it. OK, I've got enough space in here. 15 feet's enough to get a run up right? Yes, I would say. So let's see what what would be.

Let me just look at your sheet real fast Vendel. Skate fast, turn left. Skate. Fast turn left. Skate fast, turn left. Well, since you are emulating roller Derby, let's roll brawling. OK. So move fast, move heavy. That's what they say. That's what they say. I'm pretending yes 16. You know, I don't know roller Derby. Oh, nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I rolled A2, so that's great. Yes.

Mendel presses up against the back wall of this room, right where you entered, pushes off the ground three or four times with really good angles and rolling A-16 skates across the side of the wall. As the skates run up and down these tiny ridges on the shipping container, Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gets the other side lands and even.

Does just a little. Grind on the lowest step that leads into the next area, stopping shy with a little bit of a spark on the ground next to the computer. Do you know what that's called? The little bumps in the side of a shipping container. No. It's. It's corrugated metal. Corrugated metal? More like cool looking ramp for Vendel. Wow, that will actually, I feel like that played. I feel like that played.

Really I'm. Probably terrible. At that, at first I was like, I don't know how they're going to get through this one. And then, yeah, you really brought it home. Well, you really did. Well, I mean, Retro's already pointed out the computer. So if I just push this button that says close pit, that's. Yeah, that's part of the path. Oh. Awesome. That works, yeah. Good job. Good job, Vendel. I got a leg over that. I see what you did there.

It's all right, everybody. Let's leave that Zeb trapped in a pit forever. Oh. Oh. It it won't be alive for very long. That's true. I mean, they're also not people, right? And haven't we decided? That I don't know, Deb. We had a long conversation about that before our clones people. The world may never know anyway. This conversation continues as Vivi and Iona step into the next room. All. Right, this room probably also booby trapped. Wrong perception.

I mean, looking at the floor of this like an indent, I could percept that you're right. Let me just take that back. No, no, you're allowed to. You can say what you see. That's that's that's passive perception. But if you want to know more about it, you roll for. It great. Yeah, I can. I can see there's a a depression here in the floor which I assume is another. Booby trap, Phoebe, you rolled 18. Now what's funny is is you're the medical professional so you recognize this easier than

everyone else. Everyone else would have a higher DV in this room, but you realize that these walls are covered with modified syringe injectors for a poison dart trap. Modified syringe. So it would fire syringes through the room that are poison darts. Yeah, this is this is just a nothing but poison darts. We take one wrong step, we're going to get darts flung at us from every which way. Oh man, wait. Wasn't this the one that said that wasn't working? Well, who could be?

They fixed it. Do you want to test it? Because I would say not to I'm. Not fast enough. What if he'd throw something in there? Jab. Jeb hobbles. In. From behind you. I don't really have much. Oh, we're not. We we're not. He's not looking good. Sacrificing Jeb. I'm not. No, it's no, I've prefaced Jeb. Jeb's obviously the fastest one of us here. We said. Sloane in That's messed up. Well, you know, no, no, Absolutely no. I didn't say that.

No, because I if we do send Sloane in, Sloane can fly. It's the line of syringes is. How far is that from the top of the from the seal? There are three parallel to each other, sort of high, mid and low for every like 5 to 10 feet. Vandell. Yes. Vandell, do you still have those? I can't remember if they were knives or shuriken that I bought you a while back. Yeah. Could you use those? And we, because this is a this

is a, a metal container, right? You climb up the wall and then since it has a Ridge ceiling, you use that and you crawl along the top. That way you have you can use it to bounce your feet off of and then you could just crawl over the top like that so you don't set anything up. It looks like across the way there's another computer that probably controls this or whatever is next or.

I mean, I mean that makes sense. You want to have a computer to in case the trap doesn't work properly so you can troubleshoot it. It's not like someone would just leave a an easy way to turn a trap off right off the bat. You know what kind of mad crazy scientists would do that? So totally. So I'm, I'm, I'm going to dash through the room. Is that what you're saying?

No, you're going to crawl over the top, use the knives to stab into the ceiling, and then since it's a Ridge ceiling, you can put your feet on there and use that to push yourself forward. And give it a shot. That sounds really hard. That reminds. Me. What about if you like super jump? Oh yeah, that's right. I'd only make it what, 5 squares? 12345 What if you get a running start from the other room on your skate that. Would be a really high demon, I think.

I think I'm I'm, I'm I'm. It sounds I'm going to have to. Legendary. It sounds legendary. I'm going to have to be like a what is that, a 21? Pretty legendary. I think it's a 21. I sounds like some. Superhero moves right there, Vendel. You know what? I'm, I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm, I'm coming to Vendel. Wait. Wait one second before we do a jump. Let me check. One other thing. Just the mad scientist in my brain is picking. I'm going to open up a ginger.

I'm going to open up a ginger ale. I'm sorry, a Gizner ale. I'm going to take a sip. It's refreshing. I'm. Not going to. I'm not going to swallow it. I'm going to hold it in and then I'm just going to expirate it into a cloud of mist. Oh great. Nothing happens. Expectorate. OK. What does that? Do expectorate. Nothing happens. Cool, so there's no lasers? I just hawk 2 afterwards. All right, so I I go to Vendel. Wait, one more thing. Oh. My gosh.

Just let me do this one more thing and then I'll go one side. Damn more thing. You've checked. For lasers, which was very smart. I'm going to down half of the Ginsen rail. There's still weight in it and then I'm going to throw it in the middle. You throw it, I need you to roll athletics. OK, you'll see why. For throw. Yes, you roll it and as you flip the can in the air in the air it does a full spin and then lands perfectly on its ass in the middle of the room.

You you did a bottle flip and no darts fly out. Nothing happens. The room is dead. All right, what do you? Mean the room is dead. As in like the trap doesn't work. It hasn't been set off by him spitting in there or throwing a Cam. What pens aren't very heavy? But he did a bottle flip that was really cool. Well done, Retro. It was really cool. And that is the thing that's most important.

It's the flare. OK, more than happy to go ahead and have Vendell go ahead and try, but if you don't feel comfortable, I'll just walk across. Why don't you just start there? Walk across Retro. I'm a walk across. Retro walks across the area effortlessly, picks up his can on the way, finishes the rest of his drink. The trap was disabled. Wow. All right. Because he rolled that crit success earlier that had that. This is the trap that was disabled, yeah.

Wow, OK. Actually questioned the end, when I perceived before with the trap in the last room, did I notice that the cable only ran to the trap and nowhere? Else each of the traps are a single entity. Damn, OK all. Right man, it was going to be really cool when Vandel jumped all the way across with the Super jump because Vandel's like super jump status super high, so it would have been pretty cool we. Can save it in case we need it later. Yeah, I like that. Yeah, save me good rolls.

We God knows Vendel doesn't get very many of them. Come on Jeb, there are no darts you can come through. Oh, I'm all. I'm all the way there. Next time on no latency. I'm so sorry, I don't mean to laugh at your pig. You think if they eat one of the Zeves they'll still heal? Up might not be a good idea. Some say gross, some say delicate. All blood leads to the door. Why would there be blood on the ground just. Run for our lives. Looks like this hair is the shitter.

All right, I'm running for my life. Now I'm sober. That was. Too close. Well, no, because he's going to walk directly into a trap. Fuck. Steve Zero knows that Jeb's are coming. Oh my God, that is. This is a lot. Oh no. You're saying that's your last one? If this were like a a fantasy world or perhaps a a digital game or or a brain dance of sorts, you would think that this would be like the short restroom. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, hold on a second. I I got a pilfer through these

lockers first are. You ready to breach and clear Jeb? Shock under the face. Trick or treat? Thank you for joining us on our adventure once again here at No Latency.
