Ricky creates his zone of truth by spinning a chair around and sitting on it backwards and saying "time for some real talk"

Zac really said Himbo Rights and just made the most Himbo Himbo to ever Himbo

the sheer chaotic energy of pete and sophia going off on their own, it immediately turns into "should we eat it? nah, let's be more rational and shoot it"

Pete: (about Rowan) "She's such a bad f**king person." Brennan, immediately: "You've got a bunch of f**king cartel cocaine in your bag!"

I'm only 3 minutes in and I have to say WALLY IS PERFECTLY FINE THE WAY HE IS! Hes 38 and lived on his own, had a job and supported himself. Literally the only problem he has is his diet from what we've seen. He may not be the brightest be hes happy and kind and responsible

I love how Misty's regeneration is played a little like The Doctor's. New quips, differing personality but same history and at a core still very much the same. Also Pete's rage over how hot she is while he is mad at her is such a good bit.

Misty never dropped that christmas album :,(

Well the "Misty casts misty step" joke was fun while it lasted

Pete slowly realizing he just has a thing for english accents.

"I did not want to kill Titania" She lied as naturally as she breathed

"...it is a cynical and small soul that believes that worship diminishes the soul of the worshipper." What a f*cking great line. First of all, Brennan is a genius. Second of all, as a spiritual person, this spoke to me on a whole other level.

I like how lou eludes to Kingston being scared of change by voting for the seelie

I love how effectively Siobhan changes Misty’s voice.

"who am I to refuse the crown when it is placed to deftly upon my head" is such a raw quote

Oh my fucking Nod. Wally is so incredibly endearing that it makes my heart swell. I'm on the verge of tears when it comes to Wally and Kugrash roleplaying together.

"People think they make choices. They think they're gonna steer right, or steer left. But they didn't build the roads. The big choices already got made for them a long time ago." i don't know why but that line cemented Mr. Moses as the Villain for me

How in the fresh Hell did Brennan make a character that casts the identify spell by shoving the items up his ass? What dark place was Brennan in to create that character?

I love Brennan trying to explain the money cancer and Ally's just like "so basically it's late stage capitalism".

Murph' s face of complete shock and concern when Emily's just like "lets eat it" I died.

Whoever said Ally rolled dice like they were releasing a beyblade is genius and that is not something i can ever unsee

brennan and zac losing their shit immediately at Ricky tr y i ng to confess a secret brings me actual physical joy

I was thinking Ricky's zone of truth thing could just be him being extra nice to the point where you feel extreme shame for your life choices and can't bring yourself to lie to him. Like, unknowingly passive-aggressive

Don't get me wrong, I loved Misty Moore, but Rowan is a whole other level of homosexuality for me

Just when I thought Brennan has done every voice possible, he up and pulls out the Aquamarine voice.

The unsleeping city AKA everyone is love with Esther

i love that Nod goes from "little kid swinging their feet sitting on a bench" to "imortal deity giving life changing advice and ruling over things". its just so amazing, and i love them ❤️

Kugrash is a very sad character, and David not forgiving him is completly understandable, I probably wouldn't have if I was in David's situation, but it's still heartbreaking

I just realized Sofia's wedding ring was probably the real diamond

Kingston/Lou calling Titania “Tatiana” by accident has me WHEEZING

Imagine someday in the future where all of them are older and Kingston's niece is chosen to be the next Vox Populi. And an older Pete says to her at a low moment, "If the choice becomes between myself or any of us and New York City. I want you to choose New York City."

I am convinced Emily is intelligent as hell. Unless Brennan cheated and told her to pay attention to Sinatra's Law, she really recalled that Chekov's gun incredibly quickly.

Ricky checking the knob is top commitment to being in-character

"So you have the ability to cast the identify spell with your rectum?" Well that was a sentence I never thought I would hear in my life.

Every time Brennan narrowly avoids saying Nod nods, my lifespan increases

The most heartbreaking NPC story based around a unique spin on dnd classes. A girl who is born a warlock against her will, decides to become a Wizard instead to take control of her life and help her family. With the double edged sword of vengeance as her reminder of how things can go wrong. Brendan Lee Mulligan, you are a truly BRILLIANT DM!

When Ally Beardsley says that Rowan is a hot name; why thank you *blushes in queer*

12:49 I feel really bad for Alyssa. She probably got that job from a connection but she seemed like she was really trying her best. She was just really nervous to be working for Misty and it got to her. And now she finds Misty dead.

Lowell selling the eagle: PLEASE DONT BE TO MOSES PLEASE DON'T BE TO MOSES.

Siobhan’s dedication to making Rowan have younger mannerisms and voice is so awesome!! The way she pouts and seems to have more energy always reminds me that she’s a full 40-50 years younger than before. Also, again, that last scene (from Ricky getting in his mazzerati to the end) was absolutely cinematic I cannot get enough!!

Every single time Brennan takes us to Nod it's time for another round of "NOD'S NOT NODDING" *game show music*

Wally is the most wonderful NPC ever created. I would die for him

I can't help but feel like we're severely undervaluing Brennan's absolute gem of a line at 2:07:49 *[inhales cocaine]* "HI! I'M THE CAB DRIVER OF THIS CAR!"

Red and Green having an incredibly uncomfortable public conversation about spending time together is an amazing moment, with the punctuation of Ally just squeaking "Brennan?"

I need more appreciation here for the "sardinian eagle" mcguffin, because when I realised it was a renamed bloody maltese falcon I was internally screaming lmao

“One of my dogs was dad, who’s a rat. And he’s not Jesus!” 💜

28:31 “It is a cynical and small soul that believes that worship diminishes the soul of the worshipper” is a far too beautiful quote to have come from a frick fracking DM, but thank you, Brennan.

In anther installment of “rickys life is amazing whilst everyone else’s is going to hell”

Pretty beautiful use of Checkov's gun there with Sinatra's Law, that was deft storytelling and feels so satisfying. :)

esther not wanting to act on her feelings for ricky because she's scared of being let down and thus turned into a monster?? my heart is broken wtf

Yup this is more important than homework

Ms. Sophia Lee you could NOT have PICKED a more sapphic show than Killing Eve to cuddle and mope to. You and Esther really just IN FRONT OF RICKY went "yeah we're gonna make out and do mary lambert karaoke" ladies you weren't even SUBTLE

Brennan's tax evasion joke didnt get enough acknowledgement

Any moments I missed? Feel free to post them here. Is it Thursday yet?

anyone else but me picturing misty moore doing the whole doctor who regeneration thing?

The “I don’t have to forgive you? That’s nice to hear” feels so real

"nod affirms that" he's trying so hard not to say "nod nods"

Im still curious as to why zack decided ricky needed to get fully naked in order to run on stage in the battle during the last epjsode.

i love how there always seems to be 5 chaotic people and 1 lawful person except whoever is the lawful one changes every 5 minutes

Man Rowen is so vicious. She is willing to basically sentence to her own people to war and death between the seily and the unseily because she wasn't willing to compromise on her shoes.

Kingston slapping Robert is such a powerful moment

11:03 "You're gonna fake your own death??" *silence "HEY GANG" A+ ad placement

I love that dimension 20 supports our thirst for pc the characters in a gay way

I love the running "Ricky you're naked" throughout this. He has pants on at least. Those satyr hoof pants he got at the end of the play and put on episode 12. xD they were forgotten.

Man, that relationship between Red and Green is pretty...Stop and Go.

“The most evil one is the one who built the highways.” - as a German, I see what you did there.

I love that you can see who had and hadn't watched Steven Universe at that point when Brennan introduces Aquamarine

Having both Kingston and Pete point and curse against Robert Moses is Poetic Justice and I love them both

Can we give it up for Kug and Kingston for their amazing character development and RP moments? Cause daaaaaaaaamn

I love that every episode with Nod, you can see Brendan actively trying not to say “Nod nods”

After watching the show for a second time I researched and found out that Robert Moses was a real dude and I fucken LOVE how Brennan spins his philosophy into his conversation with Kingston, some next level shit

"I think maybe we should eat a bit of it," Sofia Queen of Bad Ideas

Poor kugrash, he can't catch a break this episode.

"It does not dimish a soul to give worship or adoration." Nod makes me cry so bad so early into this episode

Pete's badly hidden crush on Rowan, Don's entire interrogation scene, the Crown vote, Kugrash family scene, there was a lot of good roleplaying happening this episode :D And, well, you know the main Bad Guy means business and the story rears its climax when they start going after the party's allies and/or loved ones. Good stuff! :>

Geez, briefly forgot how skillful Brennan is (they're all so skilled) then he did the Robert Moses voice bang-on from who knows how long was the last time he voiced the character... wow

The Kogrash scene with David was really great and intense and honestly it gave me damn tears, because I had the same conversation with my father. I'm surprised peple aren't really talking about it in the comments.

43:56 Sophie and Pete: The Pure Chaotic Neutral Detectives.

I forgot that the knocker was the first person we saw Misty give a ticket to him. Dope

ricky interpreting "what swagger" as a question is so funny

Brennan talking to himself as David and Wally is my last two braincells trying to succesfully do something

Comrade Brennan out here destroying capitalist ideology one campaign at a time

Brennan is such an incredible DM, he has such a nack for making you relate to everyone and letting his NPS have so much emotional depth so quickly, I love when he lets them drop a wisdom bomb from time to time. [SPOILERS] That scene beginning around 1:40:00 with Esther and Sofia almost made me cry, the big reveal tied up these many different character arcs so beautifully... I'm beginning to look forward to these episodes almost more than to Critical Role

i loved kingston's response to moses and i loved mr march as uses got sad when pete was not counted as one of the boys tho

Brennan! Stop psychologically damaging us! But keep doing it, you're too good at your job!

Alright you guys finally broke me. I just signed up for dropout. I heard about how college humor had to lay off a bunch of people and felt terrible so I wanted to support this show and the people on it.

I clicked on this thinking it was just another normal DND game. I was wrong.

it just occured to me that Nod doesnt have a gender as far as I can tell? It is possible they're Nodbinary?

2:05:12 Even Brennan is in awe of how perfect Lou’s delivery is in the rp. The urgency of tending to Kingston’s ex-wife, and the almost sarcastic laugh

Kingston's no BS personality is my drug

me looking at misty: *W H O R E M A G I C*

I understand how some of these character storylines can effect me emotionally. But how the fuck does a ratman’s emotional struggle with his family fuck me right up?

I love Lou calling her Tatiana off rip, really selling the fact he had to barrel through Mistys arc in like 2 hours

Brennan being able to see from the perspective of David during their conversation is fucking brilliant. It would have been the totally narratively easy route for him to at least forgive Kugrash a little, but Brennan is the GOAT

"We are gonna take the river" I now have the very new experience of hot coffee spewing out of my nose.

anything that involves Kugrash and his kids depresses me :( That confrontation scene was i n t e n s e

I was taken off of my ADHD med recently, so this episode took fifteen hours for me to complete, what with having to keep going back and re-watching. But it was worth it. I wish I were using hyperbole.

11:48 I love how in this shot of “the future” Ally has an awesome new haircut, and Siobhan has almost exactly the hair color/style that Ally had in this season. For a second I thought I was seeing Ally until I noticed them in the bottom right and realized that I was actually seeing Siobhan

Finally watching for the first time and perhaps i havent hit the right time or episode but.... Why are we not acknowledging that the chantry is bugged... Pete was shown a recording of them talking about killing him... Why has he not notified them the whole place is bugged 😂

Pete calling Rowyn dumb is the most crush thing to ever crush
