Well, I believe I play a dog also named Pervert, of course.

SPEAKER_06

You're all dogs. You're all dogs. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

No, if if memory strikes, I believe I'm also a dog. In this in this party of three dogs in a world of mostly dogs. I believe I too am a dog.

SPEAKER_02

We were on our way to dog London.

SPEAKER_10

Dog London. Uh, I'm pervert. I don't remember what kind of dog I am. Basset hound.

SPEAKER_06

Your basset hound, your basset hound.

Yeah, a bit of a cat. And your your wife has tragically died.

SPEAKER_10

Oh yeah, and yeah, and I had a bunch of her clothes in the trunk of the trunk of your 94 Ford Bronco. Yes. White.

SPEAKER_11

And uh the only car in the world.

SPEAKER_10

The only car in the world. Tragically crashed now.

SPEAKER_06

It's still working, but it's upside down. We'll get to that in a minute. And Kevin Lee, who are you? What are you playing?

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, my character is Pretty Prince Bitch. I am a King Charles Cavalier, a former royal who has left their royal station to explore the world. Yeah. And I think in a sort of reverse Siddhartha, I think I saw a dead body and was like, ooh, I want to know what that is. Instead of, oh my god, there's suffering in the world. I was like, I want to know. And um there's uh and I have a cannon.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, the cannon has um figured prominently in the story so far. An actual cannon like you would see on a pirate ship, and you've been firing that left, right, and center. Yes.

SPEAKER_08

And it was strapped to the kayak on top of the th the Bronco, which is flipped over now. But yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_06

So yeah, let's let's get into it where we are. So there was a crazy chase last episode. Um you were on the run, basically, from the police, from the cops, from the watch. Uh lots happened. Um, and you're now uh somewhere into the forest. Upside down, the Bronco is. The cops are dead. You killed the cops. Uh, there was also uh uh a bunch of deers.

SPEAKER_08

Almost all the cops because one cop is still alive.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, he went away to find his yeah, because of the his kid. Uh that's kind of a B plot, which we'll get to. Uh not today necessarily. Um yeah, we'll see.

SPEAKER_09

Let's do it today.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, we'll see. Yeah, okay. We'll see. We'll see. Open world, right? Let's finish it. It is open world. We could we could see a little taste of that, of course. Uh, there were the the crows, the chickadee crew who were home aloneing the series of deer. Yeah. Uh they got away. The three guys were on vacation are now dead. Oh, yeah. Um, but remember you you fired the cannon, the Bronco was launched into the forest, it is now upside down, and you were surrounded by an army of cat bandits. So you're doggos, and here's a bunch of cats. I thought that was a cool little sort of um oh you know, cats and dogs happen.

SPEAKER_11

Why are we going to London to dog London again?

SPEAKER_06

You asked this last episode. So it's like it's a place where you can a disappear to, you know, it's a big city.

SPEAKER_08

Um we all just want to get lost in the big city.

SPEAKER_10

Ryan, I'd like to roll for you not to be allowed to talk to Mark that way anymore. Yeah. Okay, great. It's a great role.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so I'm gonna make this an even roll. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Tenor under. I also like Mark Chavez to roll to um not have Mark Little fight his battles for him.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, great. Two rolls right off the bat, and I love this. And this is why we play DD because we roll the dice. Yeah. So let's do first Mark Little rolling.

SPEAKER_11

For me to not talk, I guess, like a bit condescending, a bitingly reprimandy, chippy.

SPEAKER_06

So ten or under, I cannot. Yeah. Eleven or above, I can. You can choose to. I can choose to.

SPEAKER_10

So here's the thing I rolled a seven.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so I cannot I cannot. You cannot. Even when I talk like sort of politely, people accuse me of being condescending. So we'll see how I do. Yeah. Um Mark's honor system. Yes. Would you please uh and thank you, um, roll the dice to see if now see now it sounds worse.

SPEAKER_11

Like now, I'll try, I'll try to be normal.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. Hey Mark. Yeah. Oh wow. Uh now Kevin has suggested that you roll to see if Mark Little will stop fighting your battles, right, Kevin?

SPEAKER_08

Yep.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. So again, 10 and under. Uh Mark will stop speaking up for you. 10 and above, or 11 and above. Mark will speak up for you even more. Okay. Okay, here I'm rolling.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. Here we go. It is a two. So Mark has to stop fighting my battles, which is good. Really bad for me.

SPEAKER_06

Pipe up Mark Little when you think you would have uh, you know, like tried to defend Mark Chavez, but you can't, you know, end up fighting that fight. But we still want to hear when you might want to.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, maybe you can just say like this is a moment, and then that'll be a clue to me that maybe I need to stick up for myself. That's great, Mark. Yeah. Thanks, Ryan.

SPEAKER_06

Um, so where was I? Oh yeah. So you've been surrounded by the do you remember the name of the bandit crew? There's and there's hundreds of them. Hundreds of them! Hundreds of them. And they are the cat bandits. No, the whisker knives. Whisker knives. Oh, I didn't take that knives.

SPEAKER_04

Whisker knives. You've stumbled into the territory of the whisker knives. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

And like three or four cats per one of you, like comes and swiftly disarms you, you know, like like sort of like Can we roll to do that?

SPEAKER_11

That seems like Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

They take my cannon from me. My cannon has a fingerprint uh activated uh thing like guns in sci-fi movies, so like they can't.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so I will allow that because it does kind of sound fairly magical. So, but they can't fire it, but they do take it from you. Okay. I I just feel like there's an there's there's the the amount of them based on you know, like there's like hundreds of them and there's three of you, right? There's hundreds. Oh, it's like a ton of cats. It's like an army of cats, some bigger, some smaller, some in between. Okay. And they're they've got eye patches, you know, like little leather cowls. Classic bandits. Some of the the cat ears have earrings in it. Oh my god. You know? That's so cool. And so they disarm you.

SPEAKER_10

But all the earrings are on the right side. Gay.

SPEAKER_06

The earrings are on either side of it.

SPEAKER_05

Some of them have both, even. No, just the right.

SPEAKER_08

Double gay.

SPEAKER_05

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Never put a beer into the right ear. You can do you can do in this world, you can do either ear, and it does not signify gay or straight. Wow. Okay, so the whisker knives have you. And so the Bronco is upside down. You've got spears to your throat, knives to your head, you know, swords to your back.

SPEAKER_08

Little caps, little leather caps.

SPEAKER_10

One of the cats looks at us and says, Three fellas. Looks like we've come to the right place.

SPEAKER_09

Yummy, yummy.

SPEAKER_08

And they go, Yes, because of course, all dogs are boys and all cats are girls. So gay girls.

SPEAKER_06

First and foremost, the cats are of many genders and they are of many sexual orientations. Wow. And so they say to you, one of them who's got got your got you held up like this, says, wait for Nyx. Nix will want to talk to you.

SPEAKER_11

Where's Nyx now? Nick's is just coming. All of you came except for Nyx. Nix is the leader.

SPEAKER_10

All right. Now, one of the cats, I I would like one of the cats to get a uh text from Nix.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so phones are part of the world. Last week we did a lot of phone stuff. Um, and so I just would encourage you guys to instead of saying text, yeah, you know what I mean, say something like uh something more magical.

SPEAKER_11

Maybe well, maybe a message comes like down the line on a piece of scroll, you know, like people like pass it forward. Great job, Mark.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, so one of the cats runs from the back of the group and goes like, it's from Nick's, it's from Nyx, it's from Nick's, it's from the cycle. And the other cats go, Nick's, Nyx, it's a good thing. The scroll reaches the front cat and it says, Nick says, check your phone, he sent you a text.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, okay, okay. I feel like there's a lot of push and pull about phones. And so I'm gonna say there are phones, okay, but again, they're sort of clay, magically charged, sort of like uh tablet looking things. Can we call them anything but phones? Okay. Yeah, um. Can we call them anything?

SPEAKER_11

Well, maybe it's an acronym. Maybe it's like you know you're now we're talking. Like uh personal, yeah, homing, yeah, ongoing, yeah, knowing everything. Knowing. Knowing is a K. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Did you say device? Device appeal.

SPEAKER_11

So it's a phone device. Foam.

SPEAKER_02

So folk.

SPEAKER_06

Focused, so check your focund. So the cat checks, they're focused. It says, Nyx is coming. He's five minutes away. He says he's en route. Where was he? Why is Nyx not this whole thing? Nix is very Nyx is the leader of the whisker knife, so Nyx has a lot of things to do. And Nyx is for your notes, NYX. NYX.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, let's take that down. Now, Ryan, can I do a like a history role? Like a role of like I want to if I know anything about these cats, any weaknesses they might have, like maybe the infrared. Yes. Okay, great. So a history check. Now I can't tell if you're just being nice because you're forced to be nice. This is the problem. Right. This is a problem.

SPEAKER_03

I answered that.

SPEAKER_08

It shouldn't have to be a problem, Ryan.

SPEAKER_11

Why is that a problem, Ryan? Okay.

SPEAKER_08

Hey, okay, yeah, sorry. I stood I stood up for you too. I can I roll for me not standing up for Mark as well?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, okay, let's see if Kevin can now not stand up or stand up for Mark. Same role.

SPEAKER_08

Ah, I rolled the two. So I can't.

SPEAKER_06

So yeah, you're on your own. Wow. Yeah, he's getting guidance anyway. Like you look into the back of the room and wheel of fortune. So, um, yeah, you you were gonna do a history check to see what you know about the whisker knives.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, great. So it'll be pretty easy because they're pretty well known. There's hundreds of them on the road. Okay, here I'm rolling. I rolled a fifteen. Yeah, you know. Everyone knows the whisker knives. It's like Robin Hood's Merryman.

SPEAKER_11

It's like um Oh they're they rob from the rich?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. I mean, they're a little less altruistic than that, but they do rob from the rich and the poor and the middle class. So they just they're just robbers. They're robbers. They're robbers, they take robbers, but they're very well known, and this is a very dangerous road on the way to Dog London, and they have co you've of course stumbled uh into one of their sort of bad lands. Okay.

SPEAKER_10

Now, Nyx in his text didn't just say he'll be there in five minutes. He also said uh, does anyone want anything?

SPEAKER_08

And then the other one. And then everyone starts passing the phone around and giving orders.

SPEAKER_06

I wanna I'm gonna do we will do a roll for this to see if anyone does want anything. It'll be a pretty hard roll because I feel like it there's hundreds of them as already put up. There could be two this could be this could be too much. So who wants to roll to see if the rest of the whisker knives want anything? Well, maybe Mark should because it was his Okay, Mark Little.

SPEAKER_10

So you roll to see But I should specify, he's asking if anyone wants anything from sweet green, the bowl place. So the orders are gonna get complicated.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, well, that also does make it a little easier of a roll because it's not anything, so it's just one location.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, okay, but there's after that he wrote or anything.

SPEAKER_08

Honestly, I'm because I'm at a food court and I'm at a mall, so I can stop off at like kernels, I go to the gap. Yeah, he's at a food court.

SPEAKER_10

If anyone wants a hoodie, yeah, a hoodie or some pants. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

He's such a nice leader. This is cool. So I'm looking for a 17, 18, 19, or 20. What? Yeah, because this is a big like there's hundreds, like we can't do the whole episode. Okay. Okay, fine, 15 and above.

SPEAKER_10

Okay. I'm rolling. The total is four. Oh no. Dang, like nobody wants anything?

SPEAKER_11

That seems suspect, but yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I mean, well, roll again. Okay, yeah. Because Nick says Nick says, Are you sure? Sure. Right.

SPEAKER_11

They're being polite. Are you sure? Yeah. Yeah, don't you? Maybe this is the dance they do. You know, this is the dance.

SPEAKER_10

Okay, it's a 10. It's still not enough.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

People still like, nah, nah, right.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, maybe they all just ate. Maybe they all just came from the same food court. Exactly.

SPEAKER_06

So they're guess what? They're just trained on you guys. They don't want anything. You're waiting for Nyx. Does anyone say anything to these kids?

SPEAKER_11

I reach for my uh axe that they took from me.

SPEAKER_06

Um it's gone. You can't find it. They've taken it's like in the back of the the part, like, you know, the issue.

SPEAKER_08

I uh I voice activate my cannon to fire. I go, cannon, fire. I go, hello cannon, and it goes, I go, I go, hello cannon, it goes, hello. Oh, you want, and I go, fire.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Okay. Okay.

SPEAKER_08

So it has like a Siri on board.

SPEAKER_06

I didn't know that your cannon was magically charmed to also be voice activated.

SPEAKER_08

I paired it with my phone cut.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, you know what? That's okay, that is huge. Um they've taken the cannon away from you, but it will fire, it'll hurt a lot of them. Um so I guess I guess roll to see how many cats you kill. I rolled an eight. Okay, you killed eight cats. It's a big explosion. Wow. It's a big explosion, and they all they all run every which direction. It's a chaos, it's like a riot.

SPEAKER_11

I stick my hand out and I say, Boomerangs to me. Okay.

SPEAKER_09

Boomeracks.

SPEAKER_11

Boomerangs! Return to me.

SPEAKER_02

Which is not how boomerangs work. You have to throw it first.

SPEAKER_11

Well, it it it thinks it's been thrown because it got taken away. So I So your weapon is also voice activated? No, it's just return. It's like it's like uh Thor's hammer. Like it just I I can just it can return to me. Summon it. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_06

So yeah, okay, so okay, fine. So your axe, so you have your axe. So does it return? It does. You only remember you only killed eight cats. It is pandemonium, but there's still like, what is it, 100 minus eight? 92 cats. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Okay, and then and then Thor says, hey, he stole my bit.

SPEAKER_11

And I say, not exactly. I was just trying to give an example.

SPEAKER_10

What this how this works is And then Thor's lawyer cuts you off and he says, We'll see you in court. Oh, damn it.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so you have the magical summons. Mark, put that in your notes, Chavez. You've been summoned to uh like deity court. Summoned to court.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, and then Thor says this, now it's I gotta go to court.

SPEAKER_09

It goes like you need to do a split off of like.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, okay, okay, okay. Well, I'll go deal with this quickly, and then we'll come back down to the cat bandit thing. So you all get summoned up into sort of a cloud. You know, like how Family Circus draws heaven? Yeah. You know, that style of thing, clouds with cloud desks and chairs.

SPEAKER_08

Is the judge not me?

SPEAKER_06

The judge is not me from Family Circus. Family Circus? No, the judge I think is is um is uh Zeus. Who has cleared? That seems it's like the wrong of the wrong god.

SPEAKER_02

Thor is is Norse. It should be Odin, but but it can't be.

SPEAKER_06

No, no, no, no, no, it's Zeus, because they're all friends.

SPEAKER_11

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

They're all friends. And maybe Zeus won't be as well. I think Odin Odin would have been a bit more biased. Biased. So Zeus is just like, hey, I'm Zeus. Yeah, I'm here to hear it out, and I don't necessarily love Thor. I don't hate it.

SPEAKER_10

And then the bailiff uh LeBron James comes out and he says, All rise.

SPEAKER_02

I say all right, I stand up because I love LeBron.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, LeBron goes, LeBron puts two chalk in his two hands and he goes poof above his head. And then he goes, All rise for Judge Zeus. And then Judge Zeus says, Can you kneel down a bit before I get out there? You're making me look small.

SPEAKER_06

LeBron is bigger than Zeus. Exactly. LeBron does kneel a bit.

SPEAKER_05

Zeus comes out and goes, Who has been summoned to deity court?

SPEAKER_06

State your case, and what's your reason? And so Thor's go, Thor goes. And Thor's lawyer, I guess. What is who's Thor's lawyer in this situation? Just another kind of like Hera.

SPEAKER_10

Hera. Hera the dog that bit ya.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. That and it's a dog.

SPEAKER_08

It's another dog.

SPEAKER_11

Oh no, okay, fine.

SPEAKER_08

That's like a personal injury lawyer. Like, I feel like that's on a billboard, like hera, the dog that bit you. Like, if you've been bitten by a dog, hire hera the dog that bit you.

SPEAKER_11

So this is a dog in a suit. I wonder if also Zeus is dog Zeus and Thor is dog Thor.

SPEAKER_08

Oh yeah. So like Zeus is just like a pit bull named Zeus.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Let's roll. Roll for what? To see if the Greek gods are dogs or not. I rolled a 16.

SPEAKER_11

What do I Oh Kevin already rolled a 16?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, they're dogs. So fine. Thor's a great name for a dog. But that makes kind of makes sense because again, like the dogs are the predominant species in our world, so why wouldn't the Greek gods also be dogs? Yeah. And god and dog, you know, spelt backwards. People like to do that. Yeah. So dog Zeus goes, who stands before me. State your case, worm. Speaking to you, uh, Barkle. Oh, I have to state my case? Yeah. Well, we use plagiarizing. Yeah, well, it just do it, okay? Right. Hey, whoa, whoa. Oh, you're right. Mark, do you mind? Do you mind stating your case? In in this uh deity court, it goes backwards from people's court.

SPEAKER_11

Okay. Uh thank you, Your Honor, Zeus. And I uh just to let you know, I'm a big fan.

SPEAKER_10

Today, Your Honor.

SPEAKER_11

You're my counsel, right? Or are you No, this is uh I think this is Thor's country. Oh, that's Thor's. Okay.

SPEAKER_10

No, this is your lawyer. Oh, it's Haroldog debate. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Sparkles? Harris Thor's.

SPEAKER_10

This is a court-appointed lawyer for Sir Barkles. Okay. Um, this lawyer's name is Mr. This this this lawyer's name is the Laudog. Nice. And and I go, and and he goes, objection, Your Honor. My guy is talking. Everyone shut the fuck up. My guy has something to say. And if anyone doesn't like it, they can talk to me and my fucking gun. Okay.

SPEAKER_05

Sustained. Yeah. Sustained. Cool, cool, cool way of uh turn a phrase there. That's cool. Sustained. Okay. Keep going.

SPEAKER_11

Thank you. Um I for as long as I've known, I have had a powerful boomerangs. That when it leaves my hand, it will eventually return. And I can also call to it to return. This is just how I've been. And I and it's and it I do want to see it? Watch this outfit. I take it and I throw it and I say Boomeraks to me, like Thor! And it comes back to me.

SPEAKER_08

I go, objection, I'm the boomerakes. I want to file for emancipation from Mr. Barkle's What?

SPEAKER_06

We have to have another separate trial. Let's take us to weapon court. Well, let's figure this one out first.

SPEAKER_00

Well, it all My client, the Boomeraks, wants this dealt with now, for it bears it has bearing upon the proceedings.

SPEAKER_11

Okay, so I guess weapon court judge. I will preside over the No no no no.

SPEAKER_06

I I'll I'll be I'll be Thor's dog Thor's lightning bolt.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, let's go to weapon court. And then we'll get this resolved, then we'll go back to just deity court, and then we'll go back to the cat bandit thing.

SPEAKER_10

Okay, and then LeBron James wakes up and he goes, I had the dream again.

SPEAKER_11

Go back to sleep. It's okay. We don't have to do that. You're dreaming without me? I want to dream at the same time as you.

SPEAKER_08

I want to I want us to dream at the same on the same team. I'm Bronny. Oh great.

SPEAKER_05

Hi Bronny.

SPEAKER_06

Hi. I want a dream on the same team. I'm not gonna deal with LeBron James or his family in this particular episode. LeBron James is the bailiff.

SPEAKER_08

So LeBron James is dreaming our entire game is so far what the canon is.

SPEAKER_10

And the campaign. All of the dog war campaign. Everything about this is happening in LeBron James's dream.

SPEAKER_11

But we don't necessarily know that, and that's fine, you know. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, but we have to stay with LeBron now.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. LeBron will be part of it for sure. And maybe LeBron could be like a fun guest down the road. Okay. You know? Okay. But for now, let's let's resolve weapon court, which will affect deity court, and then we can get back to the cat bandit scene.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, so Welcome to Weapon Court! I'm the lightning bolt. Stay your case. Harry, Harry.

SPEAKER_08

Mr. Barkles has always taken me for granted. He always throws me out and just calls me back. He knows he doesn't even know my real name.

SPEAKER_11

Objection. I that's not true. I I I Now what's my real name? Wol Wolgramirsh.

SPEAKER_08

No. No, it's Wolgramesh, you fucking dick. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_05

I guess all the weapons are going crazy right now. Crazy. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I rule in favor of the boomeracks. Oh, can you get the damn man?

SPEAKER_08

No, I get to own you. Mr. Barkles to me!

SPEAKER_06

Oh and I fly to the boomerak. As Dogzus goes like, based on the weapons court ruling, I now throw this case out of court because the axe owns you, I guess.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. Okay. Okay. I mean, that seems wild.

SPEAKER_05

Now, back to real world.

SPEAKER_06

You explode and clouds all around you, and you're back right where you started. Yes, eight cats are dead, but they've kind of calmed down because you guys were gone for about 45 minutes. Kind of like in a coma state. And they've got they've wrangled you again. The cannon, that was the last cannon shot. If you remember from last episode, there was one more ball. No. Oh, yeah. It's on a chain. Well, the there's no more gunpowder. There's no more gunpowder. Oh, well done. Yeah, I got you. So there's no more, there's no more gunpowder. Right. And the cats now not only but they have you even even more vulnerable position because you were kind of on the ground. Well, because you're comatose, you were comatose with your iPhone in your head because you were called up to deity court in the weapon court. So now they're like, guess who just arrived? Nyx. Is it Nyx? It's Nyx. Yes. Did he bring me anything? No, remember, no one needed anything.

SPEAKER_08

What? But the phone didn't make it to me. I wanted a nice little green, a little power greens bowl and a lemongrass shot.

SPEAKER_06

Nyx goes like, well, you should have texted me. I would have got that for you.

SPEAKER_08

Killing eight of your guys.

SPEAKER_11

So these I go, I go. Nyx. I thought I smelt your foul odor.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. I go like this. I go like this. Huh. It's uh huh. I did I huh. Huh. I go, huh.

SPEAKER_08

I go, I go like, huh.

SPEAKER_10

Can Nick say this? Can Nick say this to Kevin's cat character? He goes like this.

SPEAKER_07

Well, you should have texted me if you wanted that bowl in a lemongrass shot. But luckily, I always plan ahead. And he gives it to me. Absolutely. That's right.

SPEAKER_06

He's really. That's why everyone loves Nyx. You're absolutely right. That people love Nick. So yeah, he did get a few extras just in case. He's got a few things. A few things from the food court. You know, he passes them out to his guys, to his gals. And then he goes, So, these are the encroachers. And then he walks up to the upside down Bronco and goes, hmm, this will do nicely in our armory of things.

SPEAKER_04

What? Oh, things.

SPEAKER_11

He can't take the Bronco.

SPEAKER_10

Can you say this? Can you say this? He goes, Hey, wait, wait a second. What the hell's falling out of my pocket?

SPEAKER_07

DVDs for all my favorite cats? I purchased on the way, too.

SPEAKER_02

So yeah, so he didn't. Is he confused about it? Also falling out of his pocket.

SPEAKER_03

It's more than he's doing a fun bit. He's like, wow, what's this? Yeah, he's doing a bit.

SPEAKER_06

And then the cats go crazy for it, of course. So yeah, so he passes out some DVDs. What kind of what are the DVDs?

SPEAKER_08

Beethoven, but for cats.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, I mean, again, we talked about this last week. There's been a lot of sort of modern intellectual property sort of theft. Yeah, those things bestowed upon. So whatever it is, it has to have a twist. Right.

SPEAKER_10

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, a D twist, yeah.

SPEAKER_06

A DD fantasy world twist. So you you're free to name them, or we can just move on.

SPEAKER_11

Um 101 Dalmatian Cats. Um cats, but it's not a musical. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Uh about um one more Avatar, but there's wizards. Okay. Yeah, that's it.

SPEAKER_11

Tim Burton's Cat Man.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, they need to be cats. Oh, how about that?

SPEAKER_06

No, they don't need to be cats. It needs to be fantasy or DD. So, like, what you're kind of doing is just sort of you know, like Howl's moving cat soul.

SPEAKER_10

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_11

How about instead of toy story, it's toy parchment or something like that. Okay, we're done.

SPEAKER_06

So then he passes them all out. He passes them all out. The cats are very happy.

SPEAKER_04

He pokes at the Bronco and he goes, tie this up and drag it back to camp and take these encroaches to the prison cell where they will be executed in the morning.

SPEAKER_11

In the cell Well what take them to the prison cell where they'll be executed in the morning?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, the dumbest the dumbest cat says says what Mark just said. He goes, In the cell? In the cell.

SPEAKER_06

And so that elsewhere. He puts his arm around the cat and goes, like, no, no, I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_04

I should have used a sort of a more full sentence. Take them to the prison cell where they will spend the night, and then in the morning, we will take them out to the uh common area, and we will execute them hanging from the table.

SPEAKER_08

And then one of the cats puts his arm up and goes, uh, can we stop executing people in the common area? That's where the table tennis is, and like our wee and stuff like that. Like blood and table. There's so much blood.

SPEAKER_04

It's just that there's only so much common area. So it's a bunch of tents, and then we've kind of encircled it's a kind of a courtyard situation. I only say common area because it's sort of the outdoors part of the camp. But yeah, we could do it somewhere else. Do you want to do it down by the lake? Would that be better? Common area's fine.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, but not at the lake.

SPEAKER_04

Okay. Yeah, I know. The lake is kind of a cool place to we like to go hang out there. What if we did it? What if we dug what if we dug we dug a tunnel or something? Did it underground? How about that? Oh sure. Might be longer, but that's good. Not everyone. Not everyone's into it.

SPEAKER_06

That's cool.

SPEAKER_04

That's cool. You know what? Here's what we'll do. Why don't we we'll ooh we'll do it on the road where we found them. We'll take them back to camp. They'll be in the prison cells overnight, and then we'll march them back in a death march to the road where we found them, and we'll kill them here as a sort of a sign to other travelers that they should be wary of the whisker knives. Okay. Okay, let's Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Everyone loves that.

SPEAKER_06

Sweet good, sweet good, sweet good. So they tie you up kind of like Star Wars Return of the Jedi style. So like you're hanging from a thing. You're hanging from a stick and they're carrying you, so your hands and feet are tied up.

SPEAKER_11

I say this. 3PO. Tell them you'll use your magic.

SPEAKER_08

And all the cats are going nub nub, jubity, nub nub. No, no.

SPEAKER_11

Just tell them.

SPEAKER_06

I say all these things, but the references are lost on them. The references are lost on them. And there is no 3PO. And they take you back to camp and they throw you in uh so it's mostly canvas tents, but there is one stone structure with firm stone foundations dug right into the ground with bars.

SPEAKER_08

And I walk by and I'm like, oh, this foundations are real firm, and I'm like hitting them really hard.

SPEAKER_06

You're one of the cats saying that?

SPEAKER_08

No, no, no. Uh pretty print pretty.

SPEAKER_06

But you're but you're tied up, remember?

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, yeah, but I'm still looking at them and I'm like, oh, and I'm like bumping my body against them, going, oh, they're very firm stone foundations. So all the way into the ground.

SPEAKER_10

Alright, but here's the thing, Ryan.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

You know how you said that they were carrying all three of us back to this place? Yeah. But when you look closer, it's actually Pretty Prince Bitch and Mr. Barkles. But then where my cat should be, my dog should be, where Pervert should be, it's actually like a bunch of hay, it's pillows stuffed in a in a bedspread.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, well you did have the laundry from your stuff.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, it's a but it's like a bag of clothes with uh like a balaclava where the head would be.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, your wife's your wife's balaclava.

SPEAKER_06

It's a bit after the fact. So what I guess I'll let you do, you did get to do this, but I I will make you roll to see how how convincing it is. You know what I mean? How convincing it is because when they get there and they throw you in, are they gonna find you out right away or not? So you were able to pull this off. And I guess Barkle and Pretty Prince Bitch were like, wow, this is happy. Kind of distracted maybe for you. So it's like foundation. Oh, yeah, look at that. It's gonna be quite hard. I'm looking for a 15 or above here. Okay, I think that's fair because again, there were hundreds of cats.

SPEAKER_10

So it's only a 13.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, okay. So it's just it's pretty good. It's been good enough to last. It's been good enough to get you all the way to the camp, but when they toss you in there, they're gonna know it's not you because again, it's very light, mostly clothes, and some hay, which I don't know where you found the hay.

SPEAKER_08

This is wife's hay.

SPEAKER_06

Okay.

SPEAKER_10

It's the last hay she ever wore. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

So if they toss in Pretty Prince Bitch, hey, eh, they toss in Mr. Barker.

SPEAKER_11

Hey, watch watch the back.

SPEAKER_09

Hey, watch the merchandise.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, so remember what I told you about catchphrases. No one says that.

SPEAKER_07

But everyone knows that could be said.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, but no one says that. If there's too many catchphrases, you guys get worked up and you go nuts. Remember? Oh, yeah. That's right. And those are dangerously close to catchphrases. Hey, watch your hands. Okay.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, watch the royal jewels of a catchphrase. Buy me dinner first.

SPEAKER_06

It's a catchphrase, but that's definitely said last week, too. So then they there's one one more, and you guys are in a frenzy. So then they take pervert's mannequin or effigy, they toss it in, they go, hey, wait a minute. This this is just and they start scratching at it. It's nothing but hay and clothes. Stop hurting pervert. Hey, stop that. Stop. No one hurts perverts without us.

SPEAKER_10

It's me too.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. Pervert, defend yourself. Let's do a roll. Let's do another really hard roll. Mark Chavez, you can roll for this to see if the guards think if this is pervert. Or if we think it's pervert, the friend of the colour. You guys think it's pervert? Yeah, I think that's the same.

SPEAKER_08

Is that Barkles and the colour? Yeah, stop hurting pervert.

SPEAKER_06

So no roll for that. You just you're just you're just convinced. So the alarm goes out. So you two are in the the cell, pervert, it's somewhere in the bush, and the the white bronco is right in the center of the common area, as I've called it. Still upside down but being dragged in. Okay.

SPEAKER_05

So very evocative.

SPEAKER_11

What do we do? I look for uh a key that's hanging off a dog's necklace or or or you know, just like within reach, and I start calling the dog over. Hey, come here. Dog?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, it's like a real dog though. So there's so you're telling me that this they have a dog, like a pet dog. These cats have like a real dog? Yeah. That they put the key to the prison cell.

SPEAKER_11

Like pirates of the Caribbean. He's got like a chain with a key.

SPEAKER_06

I just I'm not gonna look for a role here, but what is the like sort of what's the justification for you like they put the Pluto Goofy thing?

SPEAKER_11

It's like we're all goofies, but there's a Pluto dog.

SPEAKER_06

Pluto and Goofy are are both dogs.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, but Pluto walks around and talks, and or Goofy walks around and talks, but Pluto acts like a dog and they're in the same world.

SPEAKER_06

So then I'm gonna just do a little twist here. It's just a real cat. So there's the anthropomorphic cats, and they have a real cat you're trying to lure over, which is a bit harder, I think, than dogs. Yeah, that's for sure. Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, that's what Mark said.

SPEAKER_11

That's not them uh standing up for me. That's their opinions.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, that's their opinion. That's fair. I guess let's just do another like you know what?

SPEAKER_11

Let's roll to see if it's a dog or a cat.

SPEAKER_06

Can we do a roll?

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. To see if it's a dog or a cat.

SPEAKER_06

To see if it's a dog or a cat. Okay. Classic right down the middle. Ten or below, eleven or above. So ten or below cat. Okay. Eleven or above dog. Okay, here we go. Come on, eleven or skip me rolling up.

SPEAKER_11

It's a cat.

SPEAKER_06

It's a cat.

SPEAKER_11

That sucks.

SPEAKER_08

It would have been awesome if it was a dog. I love your idea, Mark.

SPEAKER_11

Thank you guys. Yeah, a bunch of cats with a dog is really funny. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

It's a funnier idea. Well, where's my guy? Where am I right now?

SPEAKER_06

I'm you're hiding out in the forest, biding your time. So I think we'll do a little bit in the camp and then we'll see what happens with Pervert. Or let's well, let's check in with Pervert right now. What do you think Pervert's doing?

SPEAKER_10

Um, right now, Pervert's running around a tree going, fuck oh fuck. I freaking did it. I tricked them.

SPEAKER_05

So Pervert's just Pervert's feeling great. Just running around that tree. Just loving it. I got them.

SPEAKER_11

Hey, mister, what's going on? You seem like you're in a good mood. Hey, yeah, you looking for some DVDs only.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, you've seen three of our friends. There's two other guys from the Chicago guys who are on vacation. And they're and they're like, what happened to our three friends? Okay. Can you do a little bit more of a Chicago accent, a little bit more Midwest than New York?

SPEAKER_08

Hey, oh hey there, guy.

SPEAKER_11

What's going on there, guy? Hey, what's happening? There you go. I'll let this scene play out a bit. That's nice. What's going on? You seem like you're in a good mood for a little dog guy.

SPEAKER_08

Did you see did you see some recently pirated DVDs, some recently disseminated copyrighted materials from our friends, or we no ahead. No, you go ahead. No, you go ahead.

SPEAKER_11

SPEAKER_08

I love it. You're asking us, we're asking you. You're all excited running around.

SPEAKER_10

Um, well, here's the thing. I'm celebrating because I just tricked a bunch of cats, but I'm also mourning because my two dog friends just got taken by those cats into their camp. So I'm like mixed up right now.

SPEAKER_11

We need to save those cats, those those those dog friends of yours. Yeah, potentially customers.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, thanks. And maybe maybe they know something about a pellet.

SPEAKER_10

Well, here's the other thing. You guys aren't gonna want to hear this. Your friends uh died. They got blasted by a cannon. Uh pirated DVD, shrapnel, everywhere. All the merchandise lost. Oh no. Picture me looking at all those hot DVDs going up in smoke. I would have watched those.

SPEAKER_08

My God. Only thing worse would be somebody blowing up that big mirrored bean.

SPEAKER_11

Only thing worse than that is having a not deep dish pizza pie.

SPEAKER_08

Only thing worse would be Christopher Nolan not shooting Chicago for Gotham.

SPEAKER_11

Only thing worse would be not going on an architecture cruise on the river in Chicago.

SPEAKER_08

Only thing worse would be the legacy of the Bulls. The legacy of the Bulls not ever happening with uh uh uh Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan and Pipippin'.

SPEAKER_11

Only thing worse is is going to the top of the Seas Tower thinking you're on the top of the John Hancock building.

SPEAKER_10

Oh wow.

SPEAKER_05

Wow, deep cut.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, that's good. Good Chicago, guys.

SPEAKER_10

The entire time they're saying that. Pervert's looking at the camera going like this. Yep, that's my life.

SPEAKER_08

Like Malcolm in the middle, shit going on.

SPEAKER_06

Life's unfair. Okay, great. So uh you you you do have these two. So there were, I guess there were in total, there were at least five guys from Chicago on this trip. You've discovered two of them. Uh Mark and Kevin, can you quickly name these guys so we just have reference for them?

SPEAKER_11

Uh my name is Dick Butkiss. Dick Butkiss.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, Deep Dishkiss. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. And they're in Hawaiian shirts, I presume, just like their friends. Dick Butkiss, former uh Chicago bears.

SPEAKER_10

My guy looks to the camera and goes, Dick Butkiss. I guess we're not getting that G rating.

SPEAKER_02

It's my name.

SPEAKER_06

So I do want to cut back to. So they've thrown you in the prison cell, and now the the the whisker knives are going everywhere. They're getting on um horses? Yeah. Cats riding horses. Crazy, right? They're like the alarm's gone out. They're like, look everywhere. Find him. Can we roll if those horses are actually cats? I think they're goats. Oh, maybe they're cats. Okay, so you guys think they're either cats, goats, or horses?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, I would like to dodge horses, but the hooves are cats.

SPEAKER_06

Shit, yeah.

SPEAKER_08

The hooves are like full-bodied cats.

SPEAKER_11

So it's like sort of centaurish, but like the whole and the head is is a goat.

SPEAKER_08

Head is a full body of a goat. Yeah, and the plate makes it dangling.

SPEAKER_10

And the and the body is like is like uh fucking big like a dog, it's a dog, but pointed the other way.

SPEAKER_08

So like there's a head coming out the bow. Oh, that's good.

SPEAKER_10

So it's a horse in name only.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, so they call it a head of a goat. No, hooves the head is a goat. It's a full goat.

SPEAKER_06

The head is a full goat. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. Legs dangling, dangling from doing its best.

SPEAKER_10

Really, what it is, it's four and five animals stuck in a big slug.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, it's like a it's like a chimera, but like full bodies of all the animals. Yeah, and they're all stuck and they all work together. David Cronenberg went to the zoo.

SPEAKER_06

So I do want to honor your guys' imagination. So I'll I'll allow this. Okay, so we're not gonna let you roll because I feel like if we did a roll and it and you guys did all this work describing this crazy five animal slug thing. So the bandits do ride these, so it's the head of a goat. The hoobs are full-body cats. Yeah. The body of a slug. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

The head is a goat.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, full goat. Yeah. Yeah. Moving around, but stuck. That's the head.

SPEAKER_10

Stuck in some goo.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. The body of a slug.

SPEAKER_10

Body is a big slug.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

I like how Mark's saying this right now.

SPEAKER_06

And the hoobs, the hooves are actual cats.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, the slug, the slug has horse legs coming out of it. It's not like slug legs. Yeah, it's horse legs. Yeah. Okay, so I have a picture of this.

SPEAKER_06

Is there anything else?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, it's they've all got license plates. Yeah. Yeah. Like little.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, they're the fun ones that are like even the goat. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

They all say like kids' names. They say like Gregory or like yeah.

SPEAKER_06

So the goat, all four cats, the slug, they all have license plates. It's covered in license plates. Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_08

So each of the cats on the feet each has a license plate. Yeah, I get it. So then it's just a horse.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that's a good thing. And now you guys are okay with rolling? So it's either this monstrosity you've created or just a horse. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. So it's either a horse or it's this thing Ryan's talking about or it's a slug thing.

SPEAKER_06

It's not my idea. It's not my idea. You guys came up with it.

SPEAKER_10

It's either just a normal horse so we can get on with this story. Or it's whatever the hell Ryan just for.

SPEAKER_06

He's obsessed with this full goat for a head. Okay, fine, fine, fine, fine. So who wants to roll? It'll be you roll. Yeah, you roll, bitch.

SPEAKER_05

Okay, you know what? I will.

SPEAKER_10

If it's a two or up, it's a normal horse.

SPEAKER_05

So I have to roll a one or one.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, what? One's the thing.

SPEAKER_06

Okay. Just uh here. Here we go and roll. I rolled a 19. Thank God. Why did we do this whole thing? So much easier. Let's just go with the case. And they're going every witch way into the forest. And uh uh Pretty Prince Bitch and Mr. Barkle are locked inside the one structure.

SPEAKER_11

I still haven't tried to call the cat over there.

SPEAKER_08

No, how about how about this? How about this? Uh uh uh uh uh what's the name? Boomerakes. Boomerakes goes, uh Mr. Barkle's to me, and your whole body goes like through the door, like bursts the door down, and you go flying through the camp to the weapon room.

SPEAKER_06

I mean, we did establish that that was the kind of the law. Yeah. So yeah. So you you but you you you will have to roll for damage. So you did smash through the the prison. Yeah. So I can't remember. So uh Mark Chavez, Mr. Barkle, please roll um to see how much damage, how how bad it hurt you. Okay, I'm rolling the dice, and it's a three. Okay, so you broke an arm.

SPEAKER_08

Oh shit. Boomeracks, I broke my arm. Yeah, well, hold me with the other one. Cry, baby.

SPEAKER_11

Good idea. So you do have you do have a broken arm now. Can I can I do a uh like wrap it up? Make it heal? Like do a magic.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, oh, like a healing potion.

SPEAKER_11

Or a healing potion? You don't have a healing potion. Can I wrap it up with some gauze? Do you have gauze? Yes.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, here's a guy, a vendor walks by going, healing potions!

SPEAKER_11

SPEAKER_06

Fine, fine. You have healing potion and you have gauze. Okay, so I'm am I healed? Yes, you're healed. Your arm isn't broken anymore. It just kind of hurts. But it's always a little bit it just doesn't move exactly how it how it used to.

SPEAKER_08

And then I go, and then pretty pits pitch goes up to the healing potion guy and goes, Do you happen to have any gunpowder for sale?

SPEAKER_09

He goes, Gunpowder? Why sure.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. Dot dot dot. And it's so weird you got because this was like in a chain of like tweets that were kind of riffing on the same thing, but then you just went over the line. Yeah, like by a tweet. And you got, I've never seen a pylon so hard.

SPEAKER_10

I hope everyone disagreed that Marge Simpson had that thing on it.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, I know.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, I know. Which I kept insisting.

SPEAKER_10

Uncontroversial. But obviously honestly, I did not get cancelled that hard for me. That hard for that. It honestly was the deaths in my family that I'm really feeling that much for.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, those cancelled you a lot harder. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

But I also doxed all those guys. I know. Oh my god, dude.

SPEAKER_08

The entire LA Kings.

SPEAKER_06

With the principal?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Oh yeah, how did the son sound?

SPEAKER_06

I think I was just like, eh, you uh who wants to play uh the son?

SPEAKER_08

That was the son before.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, okay. Okay. And then who was the I think I was playing the cop? No, I think I was the cop. Okay, let's just see a little flavor of that. Then you're outside the school. Who was the cop? I think you were. I think you were. Or Ryan do you want to be the principal? No, no, no. I'll I'll just let the the father and son have a little bit of a scene here.

SPEAKER_08

Oh at the school?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. Yeah. Do you remember why what happened at the what happened with the son?

SPEAKER_08

I think the son was just being a jerk, and then I remember something about slapping your butt or kicking your something what to do with your butt, and you're like, oh geez. That's right. Sick in my butt. Yeah, something about that.

SPEAKER_10

What the hell's going on here, young man? I was in the middle of a case. I was tracking down these three dogs that were on the frickin' run. I I all these horses got absolutely slaughtered in front of me, and I had to abandon my team to come deal with you at this school.

SPEAKER_08

Dad, explain explain this. I found these cigarettes in your briefcase this morning. You're gonna smoke all these in front of me, Dad.

SPEAKER_00

You're not the dad! I'm not the dad! Daddy, what happens?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, dad court said I'm your dad now! You're no- There's no fucking way dad court said you're my dad now.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, read the transcript back.

SPEAKER_10

What? Read the transcript. LeBron James was the bailiff. The transcript of the of the court? Yeah, dad court. There's no wait a second, you just handed me a note that said fart on it.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

You're a little shithead.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, yes, f like father like son, the fart doesn't fall that far from the butt. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up. He starts choking me.

SPEAKER_11

And then the history teacher like looks at them and goes, please, I'm trying to conduct a nice class here right now.

SPEAKER_05

Quietly inside the building?

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

So I look to the history teacher and go, listen. Please. I don't know how you've dealt with this little crap head, but me, I'm his dad, and he gives me no end of uh headache at home.

SPEAKER_11

It's obvious the fart doesn't fall too far from the butt.

SPEAKER_06

Oh so we'll cut that scene there. We'll cut that scene there, and we're gonna go back to the final image of this episode, which is the three characters that we've come to know and love sort of like sort of killing themselves on the knives of Nyx.

SPEAKER_10

Whoa. And then just a flash right back to where we were.

SPEAKER_06

Okay, yeah. So we see that we see the classroom again. They've all hurt themselves on Nyx's knives. And we go back, and then we go back to the classroom. Okay, look at it, okay, okay. And that's all the time we have for today on the nightmare party. Uh you know what? I I think it's a really good cliffhanger because uh, from what we saw or what we feel is the these three main characters might have tr all tried to off themselves on the knives of Nyx. But I have a feeling that I'm gonna have like a little bit of a twist when we uh get back next week to how you will all actually not be dead and still on your way to Dog London. Because you did in the end get you did escape yourselves from the prison. That's nice. So you're not in the prison of the whisker knives anymore.

SPEAKER_10

But here's the issue I'm dealing with, Ryan, which is that I don't know what's going on. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Like LeBron's there? Yeah or in his dream? Yeah. It's dream? Are the guys that are listening to the podcast also in LeBron's dream? So are they listening to the podcast?

SPEAKER_06

We're gonna have to tie this all together and get back on kind of the straight and narrow. Okay. Um, but I'm gonna do my best to sort of wrangle us in and uh and maybe also maybe take a little bit of your guys' power away from you so we can kind of streamline a little bit uh and and get back to sort of this classic D D action. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_10

Yeah, okay, and then and then Nick's shows up in Ryan's room right now. Okay.

SPEAKER_05

Oh wow. So Nick is in my room. And he goes like this.

SPEAKER_10

He goes, I think I'll take that. And he grabs your microphone and your dice.

SPEAKER_11

And Nyx is gonna be DMing. Nice, nice. I like that.

SPEAKER_10

And then he goes, he goes, honey, I'm home. He finds your wife.

SPEAKER_08

Oh no, no. While Ryan gets sucked into LeBron's uh forehead, he goes, Wow, so I'm in LeBron's brain.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, Nick's is in my actual home. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Three microphones, your dice.

SPEAKER_06

Maybe dead, and we're still not in Dog London. I think we've got a lot to deal with next week. More than we've ever had before.

SPEAKER_11

Wait, why are we going to Dog London?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Answer politely, Ryan.

SPEAKER_06

Because it's a place to hide where you can disappear. A lot of you have contacts there. And because remember, you are on the run from the police from the incident at the uh bent tavern or the broken tavern.

SPEAKER_10

It's also the they also have the only movie theater that we know about in this in Dog England, and they're showing Marty Supreme.

SPEAKER_06

Oh my god, we have to really want to see Marty Supreme.

SPEAKER_10

Gotta see it. The three of us want to see.

SPEAKER_11

I can't wait to see Marty Supreme in Dog London.

SPEAKER_06

So we have a big, big episode next week. We have to get through uh a big kind of mountain. So Marty Supreme is the reward, but we are gonna have to figure out how to sort of get ourselves out of these corners we painted ourselves into.

SPEAKER_10

Well, we don't mean my guy's dead too. I think we're all dead. We'll see.

SPEAKER_06

I don't I I kind of I'm gonna do my best to not let that happen. Tragically all randomly.

SPEAKER_08

Fucking sad as hell.

SPEAKER_06

We'll see. Hey, thanks for joining us on the Nightmare Party. Um, thanks, Mark, thanks, Mark, thanks, Kevin. Uh, another great hour or so of DD, and uh can't wait to see what happens next.
