Dungeons and Daddies is a rowdy, horny, violent podcast for grown-ups.
Content warnings can be found in the description.
Welcome to the conclusion of Season 1 of Dungeons and Daddies,
a story about four dumbfuck dads who fell into the Forgotten Realms
on a quest that they kind of failed to rescue most, if not all of their...
Like, a lot of stuff happened.
You mean piece of shit.
This is why I do the intros. I'm not mean.
And the main thing that you need to know is that when we last left our heroes,
they were so tantalizingly close to the portal that will take them back home to their families.
But unfortunately, before they could do so,
Willie Stampler activated a nuclear device that in three turns will completely obliterate everyone and everything in the area,
including their kids, their van, and all the NPCs you've come to know and love.
That is unfortunate.
And now the conclusion of Dungeons and Daddies,
Odyssey, parentheses, season one, brackets.
There will be other seasons.

Like keep listening to the show,
but like the conclusion of this part.
It is Radiolab's turn.
He is going to fly away from Walter,
who's going to get an attack of opportunity.
And ooh, he crits.
Yeah, baby.
A critty boy, a critty, critty boy.
So he's going to do 4d6, 1, 2, 3, 4.
And Radiolab is now down to 99 HP.
Radiolab down to 99% of his HP.
Oh, no.
Okay, so it's going to fly towards Glenn Radio lab down to 99% of his. Oh, no. Okay.
So it's going to fly towards Glenn
because he sees this demonic presence that is Glenn.
And the dragon is going to.
Like to see you try.
All right.
So he's got to roll a D60 if he recharges his fire breath.
He does not recharge his fire breath.
So he's going to hit you with his fucking claws and his bite.
So he's got three attacks against you, Glenn.
One, two, three. He hits you with all three. So that's got three attacks against you, Glenn. One, two, three.
He hits you with all three.
So that's going to be 56 damage to you, Glenn,
as he claws into you and hits you with his fucking tail.
Autumn's turn.
She is going to try to cast Cure Wounds on Glenn.
She could also, by the way, cast Earthbind on the dragon.
That's even better.
You want her to do that?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bind it down.
Her fingers go into the ground and then just ahead of them them a bunch of tendrils of earth spring up like dirt
tentacles basically and they lash themselves around the dragon and so how does that spell
work it's a strength saving throw okay nine plus nothing so yeah it fails and it is once again
grounded daryl's turn okay so we essentially have three rounds before this nuke blows up just to
clarify that means we all have three turns before the nuke blows up.
Not at the top of the third turn it blows up.
So what I did is I actually gave the nuke an initiative.
So basically the nuke will get its turn.
The third time, including this next one, that the nuke's turn comes around, it will explode.
Okay, my first action, I'm going to do a cool spinny move to try to get the lance off the hood.
Animal handling.
So 17 plus 6.
Nice.
So 23.
You do a cool fucking juke with the van.
The lance tries to hold on,
and he rolls a natural 1 for his dexterity saving throw.
Oh, God.
So I think he falls off the front.
He went under the wheels.
Yeah.
You went under the wheels.
I had a baby brother.
See, you run over the lance and it fucking hurts
and he's not getting up anytime soon.
He's not dead.
He ain't going to be in Rush Hour 3.
Oh, no.
You found my favorite reference a human being could possibly make.
Oh, shit.
Oh, fuck. Oh, fuck.
Okay, that's great.
Okay, so he's out of it,
but he's not dead.
He's just real fucked up.
Okay, so then I'm driving off the ramp
then for my second attack
because I get two attacks.
As I'm like driving past the walls
with Elizabeth Warden,
I'm going to throw my second to last grenade
up into the walls.
Okay, cool.
And drop it down.
If fucking Valkyrie taught us anything,
it's that not having windows
increases the strength of the blast.
I'm not going to risk winding up. The one guy who watched Valkyrie. I think Valkyrie taught us anything, it's that not having windows increases the strength of the blast. I'm not going to risk
winding up.
The one guy who watched Valkyrie.
I think Valkyrie was okay.
It was okay.
It was one of the more
okay movies I've seen.
Yeah.
Daryl's testicle
still hurting immensely
from the previous windup
is just going to play
a safe information.
Okay.
Throw it.
So no advantage on it,
but that's okay
because still 23 damage.
Okay.
Cool.
So 23 damage. What sort of sounds do we hear?
You hear, what is that?
Now wait a second.
Hold on. Let me think about this.
And there's this
explosion.
Oh no.
And you see an antler
out of the top.
Oh no!
And she goes, that was my favorite antler. Oh no.
I'm not dead, but I'm in a lot of pain.
What about the other people?
Still alive.
Okay, but they're very hurt.
Now, that does mean that all the walls take 23 hit points of damage as well.
So how much HP does the walls have?
Will, can you not?
I'm trying to make it fair, baby.
That's all.
Do it, baby.
But you didn't tell me I was going to do damage to the wall.
Well, of course you would.
It feels like Will just tricked me into trying to smash these walls down.
So each panel has AC 15 and 30 hit points per inch of thickness.
The walls are six inches thick.
And so that means they have 180 hit points.
Okay.
Relax.
So they're at 155.
Yeah.
So Anthony, just another piece of math for you to keep tracking.
Yeah.
No problem.
No problem.
Love to do it.
Since I have a lot of movement in the car.
Yes.
I'm essentially going to drive towards the portal as if I am the kids trying to break
into it.
In order to do that, you're going to have to drive over six bounty hunters and Willie.
He's in the center rank.
That's fine.
Going through the bounty hunters.
I'll drive through the bounty hunters.
Okay.
I'm going to slam on the brakes and like skid out right in front of Willie.
Okay.
You're trying to like deceive
that like, yeah.
Yeah.
Like I'm scared.
Like I don't want to run over Willie.
I'm a kid.
I'm scared.
So if you're just going to go ahead
and gun it through
these bounty hunters,
one, two, three, four, five, six.
I mean, that's cool.
Let me hit the bounty hunters too.
I was thinking the ramp
was like making me
jump over their heads.
I'm like,
woo, looks like Darrell Wilson
is going to be a bit of trouble.
And then throw a grenade
while I do that.
That's kind of what I was imagining.
I literally can't hear the image of a car jumping without saying,
looks like something's going to be a whole heap of trouble.
Yeah, one of them expertly dodges out of the way.
Two of them are immediately knocked to the side
and at the very minimum knocked unconscious
because I assume this car is going, you know, what, at least 35 miles an hour?
I mean, it's probably going like 50 miles per hour.
Okay, yeah, then they're fucked.
So that's two that are just out of the game for good nice and then
another one so yeah basically there's one guy left and he's like okay he's like no no he does
the same thing as his friends he goes i'm out i'm out no more bounty hunters nope bye bye okay i
stopped near willie and i panic i'm like i'm locking my doors like i accidentally opened up
like the side doors like the side doors are opening. The truck is like, oh, car alarm goes off.
Car alarm goes off.
Hazard's coming on and off.
And I'm just panicking.
I'm pretending like I'm kids panicked.
Okay, awesome.
So I feel like that's a deception roll with advantage because you've done a lot of very
good prep.
Okay, so I'm going to definitely use the bardic inspiration.
Henry gave you guidance too before this.
So you can have another 1d4 at your disposal as well.
Okay, so I got 13.
What's my deception?
Minus one. So actually it's 12. So I'll your disposal as well. Okay, so I got 13. What's my deception?
Minus one.
So actually it's 12.
So I'll do a D12.
It's a seven.
So that's a 17.
I'm going to do the D4 just to be safe too.
That's a four.
So 24.
Good, because the check was 20.
Okay.
I figured we'd be close.
It was going to be a lot.
Yep. I burned everything.
So you see Willie look at this van of terrified children,
and he turns and looks at the portal,
and he turns back at you.
He's like, oh, you were so close.
You were so close.
Oh, and he just gets into the passenger seat with you,
and he goes, hey, kids.
I have some bad news for you, Anthony.
Anthony, so when I broke my anchor,
I got the daddy magic thing, and I chose a spell,
and I wrote the spell on a card, and I put it next magic thing. Okay. And I chose a spell and I wrote the spell
on a card
and I put it next to you.
Okay.
Could you go ahead
and open it
and read it?
I'm reaching
and I've gotten the card
that Beth gave me
at the beginning of tonight.
This is the daddy magic card.
This is the daddy magic card
that Ron selected.
This is the spell
that Ron has cast.
On the van.
On the van.
On the van.
I cast Demiplane
on the fake Odyssey.
Demiplane?
So when Willie entered, I didn't even hear the words he said.
The moment he slid into the passenger side door, he entered a Demiplane because we made
the doors portals to a Demiplane.
After you got in?
Yeah.
As long as you didn't open my door, it didn't matter.
Okay.
You create a shadowy door on a flat, solid surface. Okay. After you got in? Yeah, as long as you didn't open my door, it didn't matter. Okay, you create a shadowy door
on a flat, solid surface.
Okay, that you can see within range.
The door is large enough
to allow willy-sized creatures
to pass through unhindered.
When opened, the door leads to a demiplane
that appears to be an empty room
30 feet in each dimension.
So I think he gets a roll
when he opens the door
if he like looks inside
or if he's looking at the kids
like still floating.
That's fair, that's fair.
When the spell ends, the door disappears and any any creatures objects inside the demiplane remain trapped
there as the door also disappears to the
other side
near enough
also to push him in if he notices
it we're gonna have to see oh because he's not
next on initiative though no he is dead
last in this so that we definitely do that we
can push him in or something yeah okay so I'm gonna
have Willie do a wisdom saving throw which means he gets a plus one to whatever
I roll.
13 plus one is 14.
That's not a 15.
So he doesn't make it.
But he has one final legendary resistance for the entire campaign.
Okay.
And he feels something's something.
It's five cents.
Something's not fucking right here.
This was too easy.
And he literally, as his foot is beginning to move into the car, he stops and he looks
away from the confused kids who are going, Fortnite!
He goes, yeah, yeah, yeah, Fortnite, whatever.
And he turns and he looks and he sees that inside the car, it's not a car.
It's like a small room made out of stone.
That is basically what a car is.
It is small.
Yeah, but he's like from Earth.
He knows what cars are supposed to be.
Is this what cars look like in 2020? He's died and he goes like wait a minute no no no and
he steps back and i guess on his turn he can like properly make a check and see if he can figure out
what's going on but definitely in this moment he is next to yeah a fucking open door so that was
daryl's turn so now we're going to 10 so that'ston. Peyton is going to start stomping around and beating up elephants.
Really?
It's nice that he got to live out his dream even in his afterlife.
I guess that's fair.
Oh, you know, no, this is way better.
Peyton's looking around and he sees elephants or whatever.
And then he sees a big, shiny, metal crab.
Oh, no.
Water, no.
And he's going to approach that.
And he's going to raise up his arms.
And he attacks twice.
And the first attack hits.
And the second attack crits.
And he is going to do 5d12 damage.
No.
So he does 102 damage.
So he brings his zombie hands down on the crab and fucking crumples the carapace of the crab.
It does 102 damage.
It is definitely bloodied.
It's only got 57 health points left when it started with like 200 something.
And he's going,
And Walter's like,
No, it's me.
It's your sort of father.
I was your father for like two weeks.
It's not paid in.
It's paid.
Come on.
Come on, man. father we i was your father for like two weeks it's not paid in it's it's paid come on come on man it's like that scene in um das boat when like all the like bolts are pinging out yes exactly
and just like that turns out walter was also a nazi the whole time
so it's bill close's turn what do you want bill close to do glenn you tell me freddie but i was
thinking he could use power word kill on that dragon now that the dragon's below it's 99 yeah it has to be 100 or lower and it's 99 i think he's gonna walk over and pwk that d-d-r-a-g-o-n
okay it's earthbound and struggling against its restraints and bill starts walking up to it and
sort of glances over at bill and starts to thrash hard or angry at his betrayal and bill just points
at the dragon with a finger gun.
And he just goes, bang.
That was Ben and my favorite show that was together.
And power word kill.
And it goes, pew, pew, pew, pew, pew.
Like Mega Man when he fucking dies.
Like a little thing.
Little circles go out.
And Radiolab the dragon is done for.
All right.
Okay.
I don't really feel bad for him. Good turn for Bill Close. Now it is the nu. All right. Okay. I don't really feel bad for him.
Good turn for Bill Close.
Now it is
the nuke's turn.
So the nuke has
two turns left
before it goes down.
It beeps ominously.
Beeps ominously.
Two rounds remain.
Commercial break.
Six seconds, right?
So it's like
he has 12 seconds.
He had a timer of 12 seconds
on this shit.
What a rowdy dude.
What was that?
It could kill him.
What is he trying to do?
He's a bitter, bitter man.
And now it is Henry's turn.
Okay, so Henry,
thundering on the elephant,
looks down at Ron and says,
Ron, I think we gotta do
a change of plan.
Give me the item.
You take care of your dad.
I'll take care of mine.
Sounds good.
Here you go.
You can probably say it.
Huh?
You can say it.
Ron, give me the bracelet. Here you go. You guys doing something with. You can say it. Ron, give me the bracelet.
Here you go.
You guys doing something with the bracelets?
Yes.
No, I know.
Okay.
So Henry turns the elephant towards Barry, takes the bracelet from Ron and puts it behind
him like in his back, like in Die Hard.
So he's got the bracelet behind him where Willie can't see it.
Okay.
The bracelets.
Yeah.
He's got them like in his back pocket, essentially.
Okay.
And can you remind me once again, what the bracelets say exactly?
They say, treat your kids in the same way that you would want to be treated.
The golden rule.
But if you don't like yourself and you would actually treat yourself badly,
that doesn't mean you can hurt your kids or anybody that they love.
Cause that was always like a loophole.
Yeah.
And then also you have to respect your kids' decisions
and these bracelets can only be removed by us,
the four dads.
They cannot be removed by anybody.
Except these four dads, which are us.
So how far am I from Barry?
I'd say you can get right next to him in this turn
if you want to.
I am going to ride towards him then.
Okay.
I direct the elephant to use its gore move which knocks somebody prone okay because
yes this would be a trampling charge because i'm charging 20 feet straighted for sure okay if the
elephant moves at least 20 feet straight forward towards a creature then hits it with a gore attack
on the same turn the target must succeed on a dc12 strength saving throw or be knocked prone
strength is not this boy's strong suit okay so first we'll do the gore attack.
Okay.
So this is a plus eight to hit.
Let me roll a d20.
Fuck.
I got a seven.
I'm gonna burn my inspiration on this.
Yeah, you should,
because that's not a good roll.
I got a two.
Okay, I'm gonna use my bardic.
Fucking hell.
A seven plus the eight to hit
is a 15 plus five. 20. Is 20. Okay, so you hit him a... Fifteen. Is a fifteen plus five...
Twenty.
Is twenty.
Okay, so you hit him with the gore.
Okay, so that's 3d8 plus six piercing damage.
Okay, you go ahead and roll for that.
23 damage.
Okay.
DC 12 strength save.
Okay, he unfortunately got a 17.
Damn it!
Sorry.
You knock him back, and you interrupt his concentration on his spell,
and for the first time, he sort of realizes that you're here.
He goes, oh, Hen, you're here.
Shit, I should have snuck up on him.
God damn it.
I say, hey, dad.
He goes, Hen, I'm so happy that you can be here
to finally learn your final lesson.
Me too, but for you.
Nice.
Good one, good one.
Well done, well done.
Now it is run.
I'm hidden.
I'm under the elephant, right?
Still.
I mean, even if you want to roll off, like you're hidden to Willie because he hasn't seen you.
So I am going to cast the fishing rod, not the spear part.
I wish there was more clear language.
No, I know what you're saying.
You're going to cast it.
I'm just going to use the perfect cast to try to catch my
father okay like around his cloak or his neck or what are you trying to just try to hook him
anywhere hook him anywhere but ideally the neck the front of the neck okay yeah i step up to the
car and i cast over the car to hit willie i think it's gonna be an attack roll with disadvantage
because it's disadvantage but i was hidden okay Then it bounces out, so just a normal attack then.
17.
Roll that d12. Yeah, because the last check was like a 20.
Roll that bardic inspo.
12.
Holy shit!
Oh my god!
The difficulty of the check was 25.
29! Fucking hell!
Alright, you beat the check of 25.
You latch onto Willie successfully.
The hook embeds itself in the flesh of his-
Adam's apple.
Of his Adam's apple.
Oh, God.
So the hook goes into his Adam's apple,
and everyone who can see his eyes just sees confusion and rage.
And even as this hook digs itself deeper into his trachea,
he can't help but try to use his greatest weapon
of just spitting vitriol at everyone
he considers his inferior.
So he's like,
Anthony's taking a big old sip of water.
Uh-oh.
You fucking,
we should,
oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
What the fuck is killing you?
Where the fuck is the rod?
Where the fuck is it going to hide it?
Oh God.
He's now hooked by your fishing rod.
Okay.
That'll be a strength check to restrain him
because you're not going to be able to physically
pull him inside the portal.
Yeah.
But it'll at least be a strength check
to make sure that he cannot move.
Yeah.
I'm just going to hand it to Daryl.
I roll down the window and you hand me the rod.
Hold on to this, will you?
Probably the big one.
Yeah.
Got a real big one.
You got a real sum of bitch to hand you.
So he's going to make a contested strength check against you.
Yes.
So my first one was bad.
I have advantage on strength checks as a barbarian and obviously enraged now as I see Willie's face.
My first one was a three.
So I'm trying to think.
I got plus nine on my strength checks.
Okay.
So I believe on my second roll, a nine plus a 20 is a 29 because I rolled a 20.
Natural 20.
That's on my strength check.
Okay.
Nice.
So you pull on him so fucking hard that his feet just leave the ground and he is just
pinned up against the top, like just above the door of the Honda Odyssey.
And he's just pulling on his Adam's apple.
You don't know exactly how the biology of an Adam's apple works, but you could swear
that shit is getting pulled the fuck out of his body.
He's a bad guy.
It's fine.
I'm going to also use my bonus action to hide under the car great
perfect and wait i have elegant maneuver which gives me um advantage on the next acrobatics or
athletics check i make during my next turn i wish we could all self-actualize as strongly as you
just did yeah the confidence you had as you said that dnd the rest of my life chasing and never hard dnd moves yeah do you have
to make a roll to hide um like a stealth no i think that's just a bonus action i get cool
fucking awesome don't look that up will and you're definitely at least hidden from willie ain't no
way he actually doesn't even know no he has no he was literally looking at the empty room and that
was neck hurts a lot okay now the now the trees are going to go.
They're just going to keep maintaining their ramp position
because you didn't tell them to stop.
And they know that there's another van involved.
It's Jody's turn.
Get his ass, Jody.
Okay, Dadkula is just chilling, right?
He's still there.
Yes, he's still there.
I don't believe he's taken much, if any, damage.
He is coughing, though.
Aha!
Okay, I'm going to attack him then.
What do I roll?
A dice. That's d20, idiot.
You know, I haven't played much, so I don't
actually know what's happening right now. You guys all heard
that I did that joke before Freddy, right?
Okay, I'm going to roll a d20.
Edit it so that you say it first.
No, with the power of editing, Beth.
Beth will sound really, really petty.
Just use the fucking individual audio clips
to have her go like,
Freddy, what's a dice?
Freddy, it's fine.
Yeah, I guess if you just want to attack him,
because you've got your whip
and you've probably got like some horns
or some bullshit,
whatever your demon's abilities are.
You made me.
What the heck?
Yes, I did.
If I were you, I would use my whip.
Okay, I'm going to whip him
because I don't want to get bitten by his teeth.
As is always the case with Dracula's,
very good idea to use the whip.
Gets a good distance, throw some holy water.
18 to hit.
Okay, that'll hit him.
You actually have multi-attacks.
You can also, now that he's whipped,
you can hit him with your sword.
Now that he's whipped, you can pretty much walk all over him.
Damn right, baby.
Okay, so I'm going to whip him,
and I'm going to use my sword. Okay. I got a
17 to hit on the sword.
Also hit. So go ahead and roll damage for both
of them. Huge plus. If you want to say anything
cool as Jody, now would be the time to do that.
No, I'm
just going to...
I'm so glad you're on this podcast.
Jimmy really supports fear of the mind.
You can imagine a cool thing.
Guys, leave Jimmy alone. It's hard to come up with cool things to say of the mind. You can imagine a cool thing. Guys, leave Jimmy alone.
It's hard to come up with cool things to say on the spot.
Imagine you, the listener at home,
doing something to someone that you want to do something to and saying the thing you want to say in this moment.
Imagine five incredibly hot people be like,
be funny, and then you just have to do it.
This is my gift to you all.
I'm an actor.
I need a script.
I thought that was clear. It's not to you all. I'm an actor. I need a script, okay?
I thought that was clear.
Anyway.
Okay, it's not like you're on Mulan, James.
Oh, jeez.
People are actually going to listen to this.
Oh, my God.
Damn.
Damn, dude.
I'm going to go home.
Okay, I'm going to do 52 damage.
Okay.
Nice.
He's down to only 300 HP.
What the fuck?
Why am I even here?
Yeah, me. It is now sweet matilda's turn you hear her like grunt as she attacks somebody like no more screaming in
pain no no more screaming in pain if anything it's like a badass scream of i'm in pain but i'm still
fighting you hear the death knell of a guard and uh then she starts to uh i mean you can't see this
she starts to fiddle with the of a new. They're really loud, clicky buttons. You hear the sound of there being
three differently colored wires that she's stressing over.
All right, Dad Killer's gonna take his turn.
He's gonna turn to Jody,
and he is going to miss.
I hate Dungeons and Dragons combat.
Now it is the Lance's turn,
and he's broken, he's bloodied,
and his four guys are just going,
what do we,
what do we do?
What do we do,
dad?
What do we do?
And he is going to roll to see if he still has any morale left.
He gets a natural one.
And he goes,
become farmers.
And they fucking run with his natural one.
So the Lance and his dudes are out of this for good.
And they run.
They're like, we are farmers.
Aw, terrible.
Now the Oakvallians go.
They are going to, I guess, what do you want them to do?
Oh, I don't know.
Maybe help Henry fight Barry, the fucking whole reason they're here.
Oh, yeah.
Good idea.
Okay.
Actually, Canary was beginning to run. And then she saw Henry sort of seemingly alone on an elephant riding up to Barry.
And she thinks about all the bullshit that Barry pulled on them over the years and how she thought it was love and how it wasn't.
And she turns to the Oakvallians and she points at Barry.
And all she says is, now's our chance.
And they fucking book it.
And they all run straight towards Barry.
And they all are just
going to try to fucking thorn with him level four against level 20 this isn't going to go well
and so yeah they wail on him as best as they can and they get a good 20 points of damage out of
him which is nothing to sneeze at he's down to 80 and they're screaming at him they're going fuck
you barry fuck you and he's going oh we're learning a lot about getting our anger out on we're out out out out fuck out now we're down to glenn i'm gonna come around the corner slow-mo
sweet emotion by erosmith starts playing yeah yeah and i'm walking slow and fucking cool as
hell like my hair is on fire and shit like my eyes are on fire stuff come around real slow
big old buff left arm and like i come into view and you see like my reflection flaming in
willie's eyes and i'm gonna cast dissonant whispers okay i don't remember what this does i whisper a
discordant melody that only one creature of my choice can wrench in here racking him with terrible
pain gotta do a wisdom saving throw that's a wisdom 18 okay he is decently wise let's see this
he fails on a failed throw,
3d6 psychic damage.
Okay.
And must immediately
use its reaction,
if available,
to move as far
as its speed allows
away from me.
Oh!
The creature doesn't move
into obviously dangerous
grounds such as fire,
so it's like,
you know.
It's not obviously,
I mean.
It's just an open room.
It's a boring open room.
Okay, so he takes six damage and he realizes that what he's looking at, this demonic form is
Glenn is the guy that he killed.
What he thought was his greatest moment of triumph over you.
Idiot daddies has come back to bite him.
I guess I'm a neck in the worst way and he can't control himself.
He runs from you in terror.
He I let go of you. He... I let go of the...
You know you give him a little slack on the reel.
Yeah, exactly.
A little slack.
Fish that big, you gotta let him out before you do real men.
And he runs into the demiplane and smacks his nose against the opposite wall
with the hook still in his Adam's apple.
After he flees away from me into the minivan that leads into another dimension,
I take a step back and I go, Ron, I think you had something you wanted to say.
I did.
And I stand up and I'm like, right.
And you see people go, wow.
Jump scare.
Hi, Dad.
I talked to you, I said a bunch of things about how like, I don't need you and I don't need anybody because I'm my own person and my own successful businessman and everything. You
remember that? Sounds good. I don't need you, but I can't do this all by myself. I'm not alone.
But I can't do this all by myself.
I'm not alone.
I have my family now, my real family.
I have people who love me.
My whole life, I had all this love to give,
and I never got any of it back.
And I thought that if I could just,
if I could give you enough,
then maybe you'd have some leftover to share or something.
But now I have a real
family and more love
than I've ever had before
even though I can't do
this alone I do
I do need you dad
I need you
to go fuck yourself
and I shut the door
yes! he like managed to pull the hook out just in time to begin to say something to go fuck yourself. And I shut the door. Yes!
He managed to pull the hook out
just in time to begin to say something
and I assume you continue to shut the door?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Fuck yeah.
So the door slams shut
and
Willie Stampler is off the initiative.
In a room.
Goodbye fucking Willie.
Bigger plans for that boy.
Everybody give me an arcana roll.
I got a two arcana roll.
I hope this doesn't mean I'm dead.
I got 16 plus seven.
I love that Ron has the best arcana.
I know.
11 plus four, 15.
That's a wild rogue.
I know.
Okay, so Ron, as you slam this door shut on your father,
a spell escapes through the crack and it is the message
spell and with a 23 you don't know what it contains but you know it's the message spell
and you know it wasn't intended for you barry's turn so barry turns looks over hen Henry's shoulder and sees as Willie vanishes. And he goes,
Oh,
that won't do.
That won't do at all.
He's going to cast shape change on himself.
Okay.
And he's going to turn into an ancient white dragon.
He is going to turn into a massive white dragon.
That is legendary actions,
which the two dimensional dragon,
I just straight up forgot he had,
but now he can take a
legendary action at the beginning of any other creature's turn he is now in the form of a massive
ancient white dragon even bigger than radiolab and this one's actually three-dimensional
and he roars in decidedly un-crunchy un-munchy, un-yoga, un-blitzen.
Drew a dad anger as he realizes how close you all are to fucking up this entire plan.
Fuck.
I don't know if we can put bracelets on him anymore.
Shit, that bracelet ain't gonna fit, is it?
Yeah. No, he's a big boy now.
Okay, so now it is the kids' turns.
Are they still hiding?
I think it's time for them to rock it.
Yeah, I think.
Punch it.
So they are going i think it's time for them to rock yeah i think uh punch it so they are going
to punch it nick jr is writing on the top of it like the doof warrior shredding a guitar solo
no not nick jr nick narc nicholas oh okay demon nick is the doof warrior on top of the minivan
very cool little nicky is shredding a guitar solo and giving them all bardic inspiration okay awesome yes very good lark is gonna roll learn from the best drive 17 he fucking like like drives
out of their hiding space deja vu fucking drifts and drives into the ramp he's gonna fucking ramp
this shit toward the portal as hard as he can he gets a three the van like lands and like and kind of aims and it sort
of side swipes the side of the fake honda odyssey and it slows down for a second and the engine
stops and he goes oh shit oh shit he starts trying to turn it over and you can see the ancient white
dragon barry turning and looking at the odyssey and then turning and looking at the other odyssey
and realizing that whatever's going on he might just well be fucked so he's going to as an attack of opportunity as the car begins to
try to escape bury the dragon like the fucking t-rex from jurassic park just boom boom the ground
shaking as it approaches this van that can't move all the kids are screaming and lark is like i know
i know i've got it i fucking got it must go faster must go faster the dragon is right up next to this
fucking van as lark finally gets the engine turn over he hits the fucking gas he guns it and the
dragon is going to get an attack of opportunity with its claws against the van and it hits I'm
gonna do a spirit shield on this by the way okay what does that do as part of my ancestral spirit
so the four great dads Georgeorge washington abraham lincoln
coach taylor and frank returns as the ancestral spirits and i get to and this time it really is
frank any creature within 30 feet of you you can use a reaction to reduce that damage by 46 okay
by 46 yeah wow i mean it's not like a huge amount of damage but i mean it's yeah it's fair enough
in total its reaction attack is gonna be what did we see in the video of oakvale we mean the
video the video of your life do we see um hildy we did see hildy okay i'm gonna do frank and hildy
my name is ham Lincoln and george washington hildy gets it there because you'll see why
because i remember hildy i'm like okay well this is barry oak so they are the ones who do the spirit
shield okay so they block 46 so go ahead and roll your 46.
Marilyn stud like,
Hey,
well,
come on.
Come on.
This is my big shot to be in the main feed.
You know,
they block 11 blocks.
11.
It's not the biggest deal,
but what I also do,
and I feel like Henry gets to say what this is.
I feel like Will gets to do this.
I also get to do vengeful ancestors,
which means that those four
spirits that block the attack get to use that same amount of force and do damage to the enemy
but i think it's also just a good old dad scolding and i think it's hildy explaining to barry what
sort of terrible father barry is so hildy oak this old salty crone because she lived to be like 102 or whatever like by lincoln and george
washington by lincoln and george washington says weird barry bartholomew oak what in the
eight she double hockey sticks are you up to you no good run you little brat i raised you better
than this and then she takes her cane and she whaps him on the head with it okay so that ends
up doing how much damage 11 11 damage she goes oh you could see this like ancient dragon this massive ancient white dragon
it like flinches a little bit at the hit like uh-huh but that is still not enough to stop what
happens next which is his massive fucking claws still do 25 damage to the car and specifically
he rolled so well that he rakes the entire left side of the van
including the tires with his claws and they pop pop and lark is pressing down the accelerator as
hard as he can but the car is now drifting really hard to the left almost all of its forward momentum
is gone and they are so tantalizingly close to the portal they are so fucking close but that's
their turn so So Walter is
going to use the crab arms to try to grab
Peyton. And he gets a natural
20 and fucking grapples
Peyton and just gets each of his hands in his
big ol' claws. And he pops the
cockpit open and just looks at him
bully lug to zombified
60-year-old man-child and
says, Peyton, Peyton, it's
me. I know you died.
I know it's probably not you,
but I have to hope that somewhere in there,
there's a memory of the good times that we had together.
All those one-shots we did,
where it was just you and me going on adventures,
and we would make breakfast together,
and we made weapons that really nobody's used,
but I'm glad that they got made.
They were really, really,
there was a lot of heart put into them.
And even though I'm not your dad,
and even though you're a 60-year-old man,
and even though you died,
I just want you to know that I love you like a son.
Oh, God.
And Walter's going to roll Persuasion on Payden.
And he got a six.
Oh!
And then Payden is going to roll Resistance to that.
Come on, baby boy, you can miss.
And he rolls a three.
So Payden looks at the half-wrecked crabbeck beneath him,
and he goes, Walter.
And he reaches down and picks up Walter in his little hand,
and he's like, what do we do? And he reaches down and picks up Walter in his little hand.
And he's like, what do we do?
And Walter's like, make up my friends.
And Peyton goes, okay.
And starts very slowly like ambling towards you.
So he'll be at the floor. Walter's going to raise big Peyton.
Oh.
From over by the van,
Glenn and Nick take a pee-pee.
You know, I thought the thing that happened to us
was weird, but...
We're top of initiative again.
So now it's Autumn's turn.
Autumn is just going to literally run up to the fucking back of the car
and just go, fuck this, and just start pushing.
She's so brave.
She's like the grandma's tante's pee.
Oh, my God.
It's kind of helping.
The car is going to get there by the time the kids' turn comes around, but that's going to be late in the initiative. Now it is's tante's pee. Oh my God. It's kind of helping. The car is going to get there
by the time the kid's turn comes around,
but that's going to be late in the initiative.
Now it is Daryl's turn.
Shit.
Okay, what's our end game now?
Do we just all want to run?
I feel like if we pierce the dragon's ears,
we can use the bracelet still.
Like if I use the fucking-
The javelin.
Yeah.
If you use the gauntlet of Claire's.
He's going to pierce the ears.
Give him like a ring.
Yeah.
So I'll just use the fishing harpoon.
Henry, picking up when Ron is laying down,
says you make the hole and I'll fucking close it up with the hoops.
Just put me in, coach.
Okay.
Okay.
How big is this dragon?
Big.
How big are its ears?
That's the more important question.
I was trying to see if I could hold my turn or if I could grapple.
Actually, he should use the spear because he's got the perfect throw.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, cool.
And I got two attacks.
It is gargantuan.
Yeah.
Okay, I can't grapple it.
No.
If we threw the javelin twice, we'd pierce both of its ears and then you would like sneak
up and like-
I could probably clamp both the fucking things.
They're small bracelets.
I can pierce them both and want a hole.
Yeah.
Okay, but you have to get to his ear or whatever.
You have to make a hole in his ear, get there.
Yeah.
Don't worry about me getting there.
I know I'm worried about the kids getting out. Shit, Autumn's pushing them. They're going to be fine. ear or whatever. You have to make a hole in his ear, get there. Yeah. Don't worry about me getting there. I know I'm worried about the kids getting out.
Autumn's pushing them. They're going to be fine.
Okay. Okay. Plus, worst comes to worst, they
get out and run. Drew.
Fair enough. Okay. Daryl
remembers his high school track
where he did not do javelin. He always wished
he did javelin instead of playing football. But yes,
Coach Taylor gives him a thumbs up. His dad gives him
a thumbs up. Abraham Lincoln gives him a thumbs
up. Glenn gives him just a humming of the
bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum.
He'll do like a sort of a hat.
Which is bardic inspiration.
Oh, nice.
I think I use my bardic inspiration.
I can keep giving you bardic inspiration
until I short rest.
Let me tell you, so I can do a perfect throw.
So do I just throw it at the ear?
Yeah, but also this is very precise.
Precise. Because you have to do it low enough on the ear that you could
hypothetically like,
you know,
loop a fucking,
tell me what to roll.
Give me a range attack.
You see that 16 plus nine,
25,
25 will do it.
The javelin sails through the air.
Clean as butter slices a tiny,
from your perspective,
tiny fucking hole in the ear of this dragon,
but it goes all the way through.
Fucking suck it, Claire's.
You can't do that good.
So yeah, now there's a tiny hole
at the bottom of its earlobe.
Okay, and then for my, I mean, I have a second action.
So start pushing that van.
Yeah, I think after that, I look at Ron and Harry,
say, good luck, guys.
And I run to join.
Hey, Miss Oak, mind if I help?
I mean, why am I asking?
I'm going to help.
I'm pushing. And I start pushing the van too. She goes, use your fucking back. Yeah. I go, hey, Miss Oak, mind if I help? I mean, what am I asking? I'm going to help. I'm pushing.
And I start pushing the van, too.
She goes, use your fucking back.
Yeah!
I start pushing.
Okay, so that was the end of your turn.
So now the Ancient White Dragon is going to use a legendary action,
and it is going to use its wing attack.
It costs two of its three legendary actions,
so it beats its wings,
and all of you have to succeed on a DC 22 dexterity saving throw
or take 15 damage and
get knocked prone. Okay.
Dexterity saving throw.
Fuck.
Yeah, I get knocked prone.
As does Autumn. I also get knocked
prone. 15 damage you said? 15 damage.
I'm going to burn my one inspiration
and go again.
I got 20. not enough. Nope. No 2016 or 17
Okay, so all of your knocked prone all take 15 damage from the pure power of its wings of the wind
That's pushing at you and then it gets to fly up to half of its flying speed
so it repositions itself so instead of to the left of the van it and
it repositions itself.
So instead of to the left of the van,
it and lands between the van and the portal.
So right now between you and your kids and freedom is an ancient white
dragon with full health.
So that was Daryl's turn,
correct?
Yes.
And autumn's and prone is how does,
what is prone?
Exactly.
Yeah.
Your only option is to crawl unless you stand up and thereby in the
condition you have disadvantage on attack rolls.
Attack against you get advantage if they're melee attacks.
So yeah, it's mainly for like making things good for its turn.
Okay.
So it is now Bill Close's turn.
So what he's going to do is he's going to hold his turn until something very specific happens.
And then he is going to attempt to sneakily do something else.
Tell me.
He says very specific.
So you know what it is. Yeah, I do.
What is it?
You'll find out. The nuke's turn.
You have one round left. The next
time the nuke's turn comes up,
it's done. I have something
for the nuke, so once my turn, I think we'll be okay.
So everyone else can just... I need one person
to help me by holding turn. Okay, cool.
It is now Henry's turn. Henry
looks up at his giant
dragon dad roaring and blocking the gate home and he just shakes his head and he says this is so you
dad god this is who you really are just a selfish asshole well not anymore baby and he turns i don't
know i said baby but he henry teleports he uses hidden paths to teleport up to Barry's ear.
OK, and this is a bonus action.
OK, what I want to do is teleport up to that hole in his ear and clasp the bracelets.
OK, why don't you make a dexterity roll?
Fuck. All right.
I got a nine.
You got a nine.
It got a 14 dexering throw.
So it feels something on its ear and Barry shakes its head as hard as he can.
And you barely managed to hang on.
Okay.
But you definitely drop the cuffs.
And they fall down onto the ground.
The dragon is going to use its other legendary action
and whip the van with its tail.
16 plus 15 to hit so 31 and then that's gonna be 2d8 plus 8
bludgeoning damage thank god the kids have their seatbelts on yes so that's gonna be 19 bludgeoning
damage to the car the windshield shatters glass showers the inside the kids are screaming fuck
barry except for grant grant's not screaming he's just looking at this fucking thing dead in the eye
and uh he's pissed same with lark actually liz warden and the knights
are gonna try to batter their way out of this fucking thing so they whittle away at the walls
a little bit more and next turn they'll probably get out uh now it is ron's turn okay so we've got
barry and we've got the nuke do you want to hold for glenn yes is it entire action if i just pick
up the bracelets?
No, definitely not.
But if you're going to hold for Glenn, just hold for Glenn,
then you do that on your turn. I think let's hold till Glenn for now.
Yeah.
Okay, so that's Ron's turn.
It's not Ron's turn.
He's holding.
He's holding, sure.
No, you spent it all.
Okay, and then the trees are going to, I guess,
now that the van is already ramped up.
Do we want to ask the trees to do something?
Yeah, we don't need the ramp anymore, right?
Can we ask them to toss the van into the fucking portal?
Yes, having the trees throw the van in is pretty awesome.
We ask the trees to help us get the van into the portal.
So the trees are going to walk up,
and there's like fucking 20 of them,
and they're all really fucking strong.
So they all pick up the van pretty effortlessly,
and they're going to all as a group try to throw it
over the shoulder, essentially, of the dragon
and hope that it doesn't impact against the dragon and just fall over.
But they all check and they see everybody's got their seatbelts on.
Aaron's trees are good trees.
Aaron's trees are good trees.
And they are going to try their best to throw over the fucking dragon's head.
They're all staring at Grant's face.
All right.
And they're like, one, two, tree.
Oh, it's so funny.
You get inspiration for that, Beth.
Thanks.
Wow, good inspiration.
Happy to be here.
You get whatever the opposite of inspiration is.
You get disadvantage on the next one.
You see them go, one, two, tree.
And it's really funny the way they do it.
Okay.
God damn it.
And they launch the van into the air far higher and far faster than you expected.
You really were not thinking about
how strong these trees are.
And the kids all die.
No.
And the dragon sort of sees it coming past,
but it doesn't have enough.
It's already used its reaction on this turn
to opportunity attack that van.
So it just has to watch helplessly
as the van sails over its left shoulder.
And in slow-mo, you see the kids going like, whoa, like looking out the window at the fucking dragon.
And all the kids are fucking flipping the dragon off.
And Terry Jr. is like looking around like, ugh.
And Grant's like, ugh, and drawing his finger across his neck like he wants to fucking kill the dragon.
And Lark just looks like fucking like he's a million miles away just looking in the middle of the distance.
And Sparrow's like, yeah, like fucking E.'s a million miles away just looking the middle distance and Sparrow's like yeah
like a fucking ET and Nick is
just fucking rocking the shit out the van sails
over the dragon and approaches
the now visible purple portal
and
the van and your children
make it to the other side
oh we won
oh we won alright and then
wait you hear it oh god Oh, we won. Oh, we won. All right. That's great. And then. Wait.
You hear it.
Oh, God.
The gladiator soundtrack.
What?
What?
You hear it getting louder and louder.
What the fuck?
And closer and closer.
And in that moment, you see a refurbished, repaired Honda Odyssey with your wives in the vans.
You see Morgan Freeman shotgun.
Morgan?
You see Carol Wilson driving with a shotgun literally out the fucking side window.
You see Mercedes O. Garcia on the hood, fucking buck ass naked with crystals all over her.
Yes!
And you see Samantha Stampler leaning out the back window with a sword held high.
And they go, mommy's back!
And they fucking careen into the back of the fucking dragon because they didn't realize the dragon was going to be right there.
And they ram Barry the dragon in the ass.
And he goes, and turns around and sees them.
And the moms all get out of the car.
And Carol racks her shotgun.
And fucking Mercedes, like, finger tuts and, like, prepares to cast fuck magic.
And Samantha's going to raise her sword.
And Morgan is going to raise her shotgun.
Let's go, baby.
And they all begin to fire human guns
Samantha runs up and starts chopping away at its tail. It's not doing a lot, but she's having a grand old time
Samantha you're doing great. I know it's not doing a lot, but you're having a grand old time
I miss you so much, baby
As you say that they realized cuz the dragon was blocking the sight of you from them.
All they saw was a dragon when they came in.
And when you say that, Samantha turns and sees you,
and immediately tears begin to fall down her cheeks
after so long of not having seen you.
At this point, to her, months or days.
Wasn't it the other way around?
Fuck off.
And tears are falling down her cheeks.
We're that close.
Days feel like months.
Yeah, when you love each other that much.
And Carol shoots a look at Daryl, and she just winks and then racks a shotgun and shoots Barry in the fucking face.
You got this, Care Bear!
Oh, my God!
And she goes, I know.
Mercedes looks at Henry, and she goes, I came back for you, my God. And she goes, I know. Mercedes looks at Henry and she goes,
I came back for you, my lion.
Mi esposa, mi leona, mi corazon de amor.
And she casts a magic missile on the dragon.
Morgan is looking around
as everyone sees their returned husbands,
but she doesn't see Jody.
She sees a weird demon thing.
Okay, weird?
That's a...
She sees you,
but obviously doesn't recognize you as Jodie.
So as I walk towards her,
I sort of like sizzle down back to normal size
into regular highway cop looking Jodie.
Cop size?
Yeah, cop sized.
Fun size Jodie.
Hey, honey.
There's a lot you must be confused about right now,
but are you okay?
Are you...
What just happened?
You were a thing and now you're a...
Yeah. Wow. So much has happened. And then at that point, I feel like a dragon type thing. Are you, what is, what just happened? You were a thing and now you're a, what?
Yeah.
Wow.
So much has happened.
And then at that point, I feel like a dragon type thing.
You just hear a bloodthirsty roar from something.
Later, later, later, later.
We'll talk later.
Maybe it's like one of those moments where like a tail of a dragon sweeps over my head.
I have to duck and be like, I gotta get back to it.
Okay. That's kind of fun.
Yeah.
Jimmy's been in some animated movies, I bet.
Like work, you know?
Yeah.
So as you're talking to Morgan,
the wish dragon hits you with its big old dong.
Oh my God.
And the fight against Barry Oak resumes.
But now they're in the initiative.
It's interesting the time dilation worked the other way.
Like the kids got back.
You know, I love that.
And then the moms found them. And then they found a way back. It's because our dimension dilation worked the other way. The kids got back. I love that. And then the moms found them
and then they found a way back. It's because our
dimension and the forgotten realms
rotate each other in four dimensional
space. So the space time
dilation waxes and wanes
as these two planets move around
each other in a temporal celestial ballet.
It's a very simple thing. Every time an
object goes through it reverses the polarity between the
worlds. Oh, that's funny.
When it goes in,
real fast, real slow, that's great.
Yeah, so when it goes in,
now our world is the fast one.
Not quite as elegant cosmologically as my explanation.
No, it's great,
because now that means we can keep fighting here.
And it's very easy.
Why?
The crystals.
Yes.
All the J.O. crystals that Mercedes filled.
All four of the moms have J.O. crystals on them.
Oh, no.
Yeah, I don't know what to tell you.
That's what she did, and it fucking worked.
I also don't know what to tell you about that.
Okay, so now it is going to be Sweet Matilda's turn.
She's going to try to disarm this bomb somehow.
I'm going to yell to Sweet Matilda and say,
don't worry, I got something for that.
Hold your turn.
Okay, so she'll hold her turn until you tell her not to.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So Dadkilla is going to fight back against Jody, who is just- Hey, Dadkilla, hold your turn until the tell her not to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So Dadkiller is going to fight back against Jody, who is just-
Hey, Dadkiller, hold your turn until the clunch is done.
Go fuck yourself, perhaps.
Perhaps instead you could do that.
And so he's going to attack Jody.
Considering the fact that you just knocked 50 health points off him.
Health points.
Health points, Dadkiller.
Oh, boy.
So glad to be around all of you.
That was the meanest thing.
He is going to target you and go
like who the fuck i don't even know who you are but whatever fuck it here we go and then like
stabs two fingers in the back of your neck uh like dio from jojo and begins to suck blood out of your
your body jody likes it is that a what just a little bit i mean he's a demon that makes sense
yeah enough to at least not at first i'm like what what the, I'm like, oh, in that moment,
I'm determining whether or not
I enjoy this or not.
And then I quickly realized,
I actually do not.
Joe's a complex man.
A lot going on with Jody.
A lot happens in hell, okay?
No rules, turns out.
So he's going to siphon away
25 HP from you.
Okay.
I emit 25 HP worth of grunt.
I will happily live the rest of my life
not knowing exactly what that sounds like. I will happily live the rest of my life not knowing exactly
what that sounds like.
I love this game.
And now it is
the Oakvalians
and they're like,
this is a big dragon.
This is a big dragon.
Don't worry about it.
Just hold our turn
until the line's good.
Okay, I guess we'll
hold our turns too.
What the fuck is happening?
What is coming?
The elephants see a big dragon
and just out of fear,
I think they all go away. They can go henry tells them to run yeah the elephants bounce
and now it's barry's turn dragon barry is going to use his cold breath he's going to exhale an
icy blast in a 90 foot cone that's going to hit either all the moms or all the dads i think
considering how little the moms actually hurt him because they're mostly hitting him with non-magical
stuff he thinks this is a distraction so he turns around to face all of you.
Yeah, that's fair.
And he is going to force you
to make a DC 22 constitution saving throw.
Fucking motherfucker.
You take 72 cold damage on a failed save
or half as much damage on a successful one.
DC 22?
Mm-hmm.
I can't make that.
I'm only plus one.
Then yeah, you take 72 damage.
Fuck, I got a one.
Ooh, okay, 72 damage.
I'm sorry. How much damage can you... I mean, I'm in death saves. All right, so in that moment then, I I got a one. Ooh, okay. 72 damage. I'm sorry.
How much damage can you...
I mean, I'm in death saves.
All right, so in that moment then,
I feel like, yeah,
definitely some of the Oak Valiants
try to heal you.
So you get like three cure wound spells
cast on you.
So take 3d8 health back.
I got a 20.
I got two 21s.
Ooh, that's even worse.
So yes, that was the worst.
I rolled 13 twice plus eight.
So yeah, unfortunately,
all of you take 72 cold damage.
That was his turn,
but now his
legendary actions are refreshed that's brisk baby so luckily we saved who held i'm still back i'm
okay so the ophalians held and they saved me with five hp now so i'm okay so i'm of death okay just
to remind you got nuke you got the new yeah and now it is the mom's turns and they are gonna just
keep attacking this fucking thing as hard as they can to try to get its attention and they are going to do oh nobody's done any damage to this thing yet
i don't like that well we kind of had the bracelets with kind of our thing we're not
really damage dealers this whole rpg i guess they're i guess they're trying to distract it
i rammed him with an elephant i did some damage to him yep then he turned into a dragon shut the
fuck so we got his dragon you're the one who taught me how this shit works this wild shape
stuff the wives continue to attack this shit,
and they say, get the fuck away from our husbands.
And whoever that guy is, they say, pointing at Glenn.
Glenn takes a D for a psychic.
He goes back and down the line.
You have a brief moment where Morgan looks in your direction,
and she squints almost as if like,
wait, where have I seen this guy before?
And then she shakes her head.
It's like, it can't matter.
I just gotta take care of Jodie.
She's got Chris's album on her shelf.
Dracula just fucked up Jodie.
Okay, so they did 20 damage to this thing.
So it has 310 health left.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Interesting that you don't find that.
No, that's not great.
I don't think we're gonna kill this thing with damage.
All right.
We got a nuke.
You do have a nuke.
And now we go to walter who's like uh i mean i think you would have to find a
dragon pain to be honest the last time this happened it was a much smaller much less dimensional
dragon it didn't work out but i think this time i yell up from the bottom i'm like hey giant
payton that dragon says that he thinks he don't know how to fight. All of a sudden, his eyes burn bright red.
He looks like a fucking Resident Evil villain.
But also, you could swear you hear in his guttural, zombie, angry roars, the roar of a tiger.
Yeah.
And he's going to fucking run up like Godzilla versus King Kong and try to just shoulder charge this fucker.
Nice.
And let's see. He's going to fucking run up like Godzilla versus King Kong and try to just shoulder charge this fucker. Yes.
And let's see.
I never thought that this would end up with a Peyton dragon kaiju battle.
I'm sorry.
Peyton zombie dragon kaiju battle.
Yeah.
Let me tell you.
Don't ever say that we don't have character growth in this story because Peyton rolled a two.
It's fitting.
It feels right.
How does this happen every time
he runs up
and tries to
shoulder check
the dragon
but he just
bounces off
and the dragon
looks at him
and then
Pinch is like
and Walter's like
don't let me get you
head kid
he becomes Mickey
from fucking
maybe you guys
should just
just go Walter
just raise him
go live your lives
go raise your
giant zombie son.
Tell our story if that's what you want to do.
OK, we're never going to see you again one way or the other.
Just you were great, Walter.
No.
I was amazing.
And Peyton and Walter run and Peyton spares a single last look over his shoulder and he cocks his head like a confused dog because he's still a zombie and doesn't fully understand what's going on.
But you definitely get it like kind of he loves you sense kind of sort of.
You know, like when a dog like cocks his head and you're like, oh, like that's the vibe.
Everybody else said, I'm like, I'm like, I mean, he's dead.
I was like, that's not Peyton.
I said bye to Peyton and my dad multiple times.
I'm OK.
Totally fair.
OK, so both Walter and Payton escape,
having done almost nothing at all.
I mean, Walter held that dragon down.
Actually, Walter fucking killed it.
Yeah, Payton.
Payton was originally a bad guy.
Payton was true to himself.
Turned out pretty good.
Okay.
I just want to see a story about the two of them living.
We are back at the top.
Wait, Glenn hasn't gone yet.
Oh, did I just skip you on accident?
Yeah.
I'm so sorry.
I must have skipped you.
I apologize.
Glenn, it is your turn.
Glenn's going to cast a level seven spell okay it's called magnificent
mansion so i conjured extra dimensional dwelling in range i choose where it's one entrance is
located underneath the nuke the entrance shimmers faintly is five feet wide and ten feet tall feels
like that could probably fit the nuke is that what we're talking is five feet wide and ten feet tall. Feels like that could probably fit the nuke. Is that what we're talking about? Five feet wide, ten feet tall?
I would say so.
You and any creature I designate, sweet Matilda,
when I cast a spell can enter the extra-dimensional dwelling
as long as the portal remains open.
I think it's going to be open.
I can open or close the portal if I'm within 30 feet of it.
Feels like I am.
Beyond the portal is a magnificent foyer with numerous chambers.
The atmosphere is clean, fresh, and warm.
The place is furnished and decorated as I choose, very's great.
Are they going to be like Linda Hamilton
in her fucking T2 flashback?
They're going to come and take the beer.
They are my servants.
The visual appearance of these servants in their attire,
all just jacked men and women.
Jacked men and women.
Just buff boys and girls.
Okay.
They're completely obedient to my orders.
Each servant can perform any task a normal human can perform.
They can't attack or directly harm other creatures,
but they can do things like fetch clean men,
fold clothes, take the nuke inside the garage.
Did you say clean men?
Servicemen can go anywhere in the mansion,
but can't leave it, which is fine,
because the door is...
They ain't leaving, sounds like.
If you move the stuff, it disappears.
Doesn't matter because they're in an extra-dimensional space.
So wait, this mansion just exists sort of on a weird other plane?
It's in another plane.
There's a door to it in our world.
Right under the nuke.
Right under the nuke.
Okay.
And you're like, Matilda, just kind of knock on the door and have the servants bring those in.
She goes, well, what the hell?
All right.
Knock, knock, knock. You hear it. have the servants bring those in. She goes, what the hell? All right.
Knock, knock, knock.
You hear it.
And, like, obviously, it's, like, in the ground, right?
So she, like, leans over and knocks on the ground.
And it opens.
But, like, gravity is relative inside that mansion.
So the guys are, like, standing, like.
Oh, it's, like, the arrival.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, yeah.
So, like, they reach out of the ground.
But to them, it's them reaching forward.
Yeah, yeah.
And they're all, like, you remember Beauty and the Beast? They're all, like, you know, just dancing around. So, yeah. So, like, they reach out of the ground, but to them, it's them reaching forward. Yeah, yeah. And they're all like, you remember Beauty and the Beast?
They're all like, you know, just dancing around.
There's a musical number in the middle.
Oh, nuke.
Where's the nuke?
Where's the nuke?
If you have an insult, I have a rebuke.
Hand it to me.
Give it to me.
I'll put it inside my vault.
It'll explode.
We'll all die.
But we aren't really real, So it's no big deal.
And then you can go ahead and fuck up the rest of Anthony's plans anyway.
Give me the nuke.
Give me the nuke.
Give me the nuke.
Not much time left.
My 100 buff servants.
They're Chippendales.
Carry the Chippendales dancers.
They can't leave.
So Sweet Wittle just pushes it into the fucking thing.
And it like plummets for a second.
And then like, and goes 90 degrees again
because the gravity gets weird.
Close the door.
And they go,
oh, it's one cell.
Be a girl.
And the door slams
and you're
and the fucking windows blow out
and blow straight up.
It's like the castle from Disney where it's like da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da that one from Satan.
Well, there goes the version of season two that was going to be in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
Fuck!
There goes Dad Max, Daddy Road.
I mean, that could be another reason for a post-apocalyptic.
There's plenty of things going on right now.
All right, so the nuke...
Don't laugh, I wanted it.
You don't have to worry.
This world could still end in nuclear annihilation
very easily.
Yeah.
All right, so the nuke is nowilation very easily. Yeah. All right.
So the nuke is now off the board.
Glenn took his turn.
Were you really planning on just blowing us up with the nuke?
I assumed you would have at the very minimum been like,
hey, worst case scenario, we're just going to run through this portal.
And so then the Forgotten Realms will be bad from now on,
but you're on Earth.
So if we go back there, then it's Dad Max.
But you didn't know that there's spells in Dungeons & Dragons
that just make it tire.
I didn't know there were two separate spells. They're Dragons that just make it tire. I didn't know there were
two separate spells
that were like,
what if an area existed
that wasn't really an area
so you could put anything
or anyone into them
and completely obviate
anything that your DM wanted.
Fuck you, Gygax.
But I guess I let you
do whatever you wanted
so fuck me too.
We're back at the top
of the order.
Daryl.
Well, the servants
could pour wine.
So the servants that are slowly turning into fucking fallout radiated ghouls are pouring wine for one another.
Oh, this is how the Beauty and the Beast castle got formed.
Because they're all, you know what I'm saying?
They're all like teacups and shit.
They were all people and they got their fucking souls formed into the fucking silverware and shit to survive
the blast it's also not a mystery for they explain what happens to be the piece was too high for that
i never figured out that's what they want you to think glenn's like why that's like that must be
where the beauty and the beast castle comes like no no no glad not at all okay okay so we still have
to get barry and we still have to get out of here team what are we trying to do now are we just
trying to escape the portal should we just all run in do we want. Team, what are we trying to do now? Are we just trying to escape the portal? Should we just all run in?
Do we want to take what's Henry want to do?
Should I hold my turn for you there?
I think we should still go for the bracelets.
Yeah.
I think that's the best way to end this fight.
If we can fucking make it work.
Yeah.
And you're still hanging on.
I am still hanging on.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, yeah.
So throw the bracelets at me.
Yeah, Daryl's going to run and grab the bracelets.
And then he gives Carol a kiss on the cheek as he runs fast and grabs the bracelets.
Oh, no.
You know what?
As you run, Bass, give you a smack on the butt.
A little smack on the patootie.
Daryl's both of Daryl's eyes just fill with tears.
He hasn't felt that hand on that butt for quite a while.
That's an interesting way to phrase that.
Both of his eyes.
Both of his human eyes filled with tears.
Coca-Cola zero sugar, please.
And he throws the bracelets up to Henry.
Perfect spiral, but Henry has to catch them.
So Henry, I think it's a dexterity check for you.
Fucking God.
Advantage dexterity check because a perfect spiral is easier to catch than a flopping ball.
Sure.
Now, here's the thing.
You're going to say, look, Henry, as a crunchy crunchy munchy druid, can't possibly catch a football.
But my friend, this is not a football.
This is much closer to a frisbee.
And if there's one thing that a nature crunchy munchy druid hippie can do, it's to catch a frisbee being thrown at.
Even with advantage?
Even with advantage.
Okay.
Wait.
Wait. Wait.
I get two attacks.
He drops the bracelets, and I grab them.
Okay.
I go, hey, buddy, it's okay.
This is just a light catch, man.
I'm sorry, Daryl.
I'm not good at catching stuff.
Hey, Daryl goes, second down, 10 yards.
No, Henry, that was a great try.
No, that was my bad.
Let me give you a better throw, bud.
This is good.
You ready?
All right, I'm ready.
All right.
I wind back, and I throw them up again with my second attack and try it again man all right 18 that'll
do it yes you snatch those cuffs out of the fucking air that is the end of daryl's turn uh
the dragon is once again going to take a legendary action and it is going to beat its horrible wings
and all of you are going to have to succeed
at a DC 22 dexterity saving throw
where you take 15 bludgeoning damage
and you get knocked prone.
Henry is hanging from his ear.
Yeah, so you're fine.
I mean, there's no way.
It's a 22 dex?
Yeah.
Yeah, so unless I roll a...
A natural 20.
I'm going to use Stone's Endurance,
which is 12 plus 3 reduced damage,
so I just don't take any damage.
Great.
You do get knocked on your ass.
Yeah, yeah, I'm prone. Yeah, I fucking
rolled a 4. I can use
Uncanny Dodge to half
his damage though. So you take 7
damage instead and you get knocked prone.
9 plus 9, 18. Fuck. Could
little Nick have Bardic inspired you
on his way out the fucking door?
That's cool. So yeah, right as he was
flying through the air, you saw him
meet eyes with you
and he just fucking threw up the devil horns and my heart filled with pride as a father and i said
oh my god a friend of a real satan so what's the save again 22 so you need four 21 oh my god
plus three knocked prone fuck how much damage is again 15 i'm in uh death saves again all right okay fuck so now it is
autumn's turn autumn is going to cure wounds you right back onto your fucking feet again
because she's still got the slots for it you're doing a good job you're just getting knocked down
and coming right back up gives you 3d8 again i feel powerful all right now it's the trees
could they try to grapple like do something to like make it easier?
Oh, that's cool.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Root him down so to speak?
Yeah, like they can be like a sort of giant entangle on Barry would be cool.
Yeah, that's cool.
They like crawl onto him like fucking Gulliver's Travel shit.
And like he's like trying to use his wings to like bat them off of him and stuff.
But they're just climbing up him and he can't seem to stop them.
And they're not doing any damage, but he's definitely distracted by that.
He's not going to be doing a whole lot of moving.
Now it is, Liz Wharton and her knights, they break through the barrier and they see.
It's a community gift.
And Elizabeth Wharton goes, I think the time has come for me to withdraw.
Oh my God.
And they just run.
Fair enough.
And then sweet Matilda, she turns and she sees you and Carol have that really sweet moment.
And a tear rolls down her cheek.
And she nods to herself.
And she goes, they're probably going to be fine.
Oh, sorry.
I'm going to pay for that.
The beer is really great.
She looks at you, Ron, and she goes, it's on the house.
And she walks away.
That's a rowdy-ass move to walk away as a
giant dragon's beating down on a bunch
of people.
He does that quick glance where he
notices her walking away, but he just
nods to her. He's like, yeah, he's also like, she's gonna be okay.
And as you turn away, she stops and looks back.
By that point, you turned away, and she goes,
and then keeps walking.
And I'm about to look, but I glance at Carol.
I'm like, I probably shouldn't look at Carol.
Yeah, you turn and Carol's just staring at you.
I was like, what?
Who was that?
I don't know who that was.
You saw that one with that lady with the one antler, right?
It's crazy world.
Was that a friend of yours?
Hey, oh, hey.
OK, bye.
It's Dadkula's turn.
He and Jodi fucking continue to just.
Oh, my God.
What are you doing?
Your boss is gone.
Dadkiller goes, good point, good point, good point.
But also, just before I go,
just for that little daylight spawning sack of shit,
just a real quick, just a oopsie, just a oopsie,
just a doot, doot,ot doot doot doot.
No. So you're dangling from the fucking ear of this thing. So he
crawls up and he's going to use vampire
touch on you and go, and
touch you on the toe. And
you take 6d6
plus. That's fair. My Birkenstocks have
definitely flown off at this point. Yeah.
And he just goes, this little piggy
died. And he just goes, this little piggy died.
And he touches... He touches your big toe
and you take 6d6 plus 7 necrotic damage
and you are grappled.
What?
And your body seizes up
and it goes,
tee hee hee, bye hee.
And then he starts to crawl back down the dragon.
How much HP do you have?
I'm at 86.
Oh, okay.
But you are grappled and it's a DC 22 escape.
I held my turn.
When can I go?
Oh, whenever you want to.
You just have to tell me.
I'll go now.
Okay.
I'll go now.
You'll go now.
I think I'm just going to try to crawl up the dragon too.
Yeah, he's grappled. He's not doing a lot of the trees up to
the dragon yeah it feels like you could do that pretty easily i don't know if you even really
need a role for that go for it i climb the trees up to the dragon and the whole time i'm just like
oh sorry excuse me sorry so sorry you're getting to touch a lot of really hot trees oh okay sorry
it's like a foothold in the abs samantha's just watching you samantha's just
looking up going i hate to see him go but i love to watch him watch him climb up trees
single anime be the sweat comes down yeah but now that i'm here i kind of just wanted to be
there in case you fell or something i think you just grab the bracelets and try to put them on
yeah okay yeah i'm holding because i'm hanging on i'm holding the bracelet so if you want to
take them and give it a shot, fucking go for it.
Okay, fucking I'm going to do it.
I'm going to take the bracelets and I'm going to try to insert them into the piercing.
Give me a dexterity roll.
Okay.
Maybe I will.
He'll oppose dexterity.
That is going to be a six.
He got a 21.
So he manages to shake you off, Ron Ron You lose your grip and you're falling
You're about to hit the ground
And then Samantha just fucking runs
And just catches you in her arms
Like she's Wesley and you're Princess Buttercup
Or whatever
And she's just holding you in her arms like that
And she goes hi Ronnie
Hi Sammy
And she gives you a little kiss on the nose yeah
does henry still have the brain still got him in his hand okay okay thank god okay henry it is your
turn okay i cast hold person okay which is a wisdom 18 saving throw and i say dad just stop
and he gets a natural one so he stops moving to hear that force behind your voice and that confidence.
It's not anger.
It's like you know what you want.
Yeah, it's authority.
Dad, stop.
And he freezes for a second.
And I say, now run.
Ron, it is your turn again.
Yeah, I crawl back up the hot trees.
I give my wife, I give my hot wife, Samantha, a kiss on the lips.
I say, I love you, babe.
And then I climb up the trees.
I climb up the trees, and I grab the bracelets from Henry,
and I try to put them through the piercing.
Okay.
Give me a dexterity throw.
He'll make his disadvantage.
That is a 12 plus 1, 13.
Okay.
He got an 11.
Oh, okay.
So we did it. Oh, okay.
So we did it. No, that's good.
Okay.
So you successfully clamp the bands into his ear.
And he starts pawing at it with his dragon claw
and then transforms back into his human self.
And he goes, what the, what did you?
Looking real cute, Barry.
Looking real cute with that piercing. yeah it's it's it looks really
uncool on him it looks like harrison ford after he got that stud in his ear you want to put some
ocean salt spray on that it might get infected and he goes you must and he seizes up and he can't
finish saying it because that's not something he wants somebody to do to him so i snap my fingers
to disable the hold person spell.
Okay.
Because he's, you know, back to...
He falls onto all fours.
Well, Dad, it looks like you're going to have to
finally start giving a shit about somebody else for once.
And he looks up at you and he says,
Henry, you finally learned everything I was trying to teach you.
Oh, shut the fuck up!
Shut up!
I didn't really mean that.
I was trying to be smug.
I use smugness as a self-defense mechanism.
Okay, you got me.
Yes, okay, you got me.
Fuck.
Okay, Dad, do you want to talk about why you use smugness as a self-defense?
No, not really right now, no, but thank you for offering, but no.
Fuck.
Okay, well.
I thought I was going to get to live forever and have a bunch of power and daddy magic and shit,
and now Willie's dead, which is good because he was awful, but fuck.
I had a whole thing. Well, is he dead or is he just he was awful but fuck i have a whole thing is he
dead or he's just he's just in this portal thing i guess i could try to find him no don't do that
i wouldn't want you to do that that would be hurting us shit why did i say that
dad it's time you take responsibility for the people you created. You're now in their charge and they're going to do with you what they will.
And Canary is like,
I have some new ideas for how Oakvale can be run.
Number one,
we all get free fries all the time.
And he's like,
okay.
And,
uh,
they immediately tie him the fuck up and like run him out of town on a
rail kind of thing.
They're just like,
fuck this guy,
fuck this guy.
And he goes,
I won't forget this. I won't forget this.
I won't forget this.
I may not be able to do anything about it,
but I'll have my revenge maybe, Henry.
I shouldn't have said that out loud.
No, you're not.
No, I can't have my revenge.
No, fuck.
And he gets dragged away into the distance.
You can see over your shoulder,
Carol seems to be talking to a small lizard
that you immediately recognize as Cern.
He's a killer.
He's not really a killer.
He just hands her the remaining deck of many things cards, and you catch his eye as he does so.
He sadly sort of nods at you and waves goodbye as a silent apology for those times he almost killed you.
I give him a sorrowful nod back.
Cern, having apologized silently and received an acceptance
that's a very dude apology. Yeah, it's a very
two dudes just nodding each other and
he's going to walk alone
into the sunset. Henry
runs up and gives him a hug before he goes away.
He goes, thank you. I'm sorry.
Hey, man. I mean, we're sorry too,
dude. And you're a good guy, Cern.
I get it. You didn't mean to do it.
No, yeah. Have a good one. You too. After he walks away from henry i catch cern's eye and i give him another sorrow
and then cern nods twice and points at you like that's how i wanted to read
as he walks away further ron ron yells out but not loud enough for cern to hear him we cool
yeah we cool now essentially it's on your plate you get to sort
of determine what your epilogue scenes are and how you go back into the world and what you do
first things first henry runs up and sobbing hugs his wife she hugs him naked is the day she was
born oh my god i missed you so much yeah her jO. crystals jangling all around her. And she goes, I miss you too, mi amor.
And she kisses you a million times on your fucking face.
And she is so happy.
She grabs your butt, just fucking rabbit for it.
It was months.
It felt like I thought you were dead.
But our kids, you took such good care of our boys.
I'm so glad to see you.
And I'm so glad to find out that the crystals fucking worked.
They worked.
The crystals worked.
Oh, there's so many apologies coming my way. our way i tell you what baby oh i'm so fucking
happy i love you i love you more than anything so much you did it you fucking did it hearing
the odds that you were up against from lark and sparrow i didn't think it would be possible but
you you managed to pull it out you're you are no you are you're amazing you're my everything and
then they just start making it. Yes, voraciously.
Like, fucking play the sounds of, like, wet, sloppy making out under everybody else's epilogue.
Samantha, hi.
Hi.
Hey, Ronnie.
Where are your pants?
Oh, my God.
I forgot.
It's a payoff an entire podcast we've been waiting for.
Well, babe, these say cool guy,
and I'm not allowed to wear regular pants, just these.
But if you want, sweetheart,
I can wear another pair under these that say hot guy,
and they'll be just for us.
But I'll change them.
I'll have multiple pairs.
It's just the boxer's got to say, babe, if that's okay with you.
No, that sounds perfect, Ron.
They don't always have to say, though.
No, they do.
Okay.
So, all right.
Okay, so that question's done.
Now I have other questions.
Wait, so does Ron's pants curse transfer over into our world?
I guess you'll find out.
Yeah.
Samantha, thank you for all that you've done for me
and all the strength that you've given me and our kid, Terry.
But guess what?
Your little puppy dog, Ron, he's a big dog now,
and I'm going to give you just as much strength and just as much love back.
And you don't have to be so strong for me anymore.
Did someone say scam?
I guess if you think about when I said strong.
I'm so sorry, but you're having such a lovely moment with your wife.
I just wanted to say I felt like I owed you a favor for everything.
And I did the street team and stuff, and that worked out great. But I did have one extra favor I just wanted to say I felt like I owed you a favor for everything. And I did the street team and stuff.
And that worked out great.
But I did have one extra favor.
I just wanted to give specifically to you, Ronald, if that's OK, if I'm not interrupting.
Samantha, is it OK?
Yeah, no, it's fine.
OK.
Who is this man?
This is a very weird looking man.
Yeah, it's a long story.
And so he goes, just one last little present from me, your old pal, scammed like Lee. And he
reaches up to his mustache and he pulls as hard
as he can. And he goes,
and he
throws the mustache down on the ground
and the mustache begins
to form an orb of meat.
And the orb forms four legs
and then a tail and then a head
and then two cute little puppy ears.
And you see a dog that looks very much like Rogue with a large mustache still on its face.
And it barks happily at you and cuddles up to your leg and wags its tail.
Oh, God.
And Scam goes, that was the last present from me, Scam Likely.
Now you kids go on and have fun.
Scam likely away.
And he fades away like a force ghost.
Oh my God.
Damn.
Is this a new dog or is this rogue?
This is a new dog.
Never mind.
Hey, buddy.
What should we call him, Samantha?
I think we should call him Ron.
Wait, that doesn't make any sense.
Maybe we should think about it more when we get home.
We can go on to some dog name websites or something.
I see why there are a couple.
Daryl walks up to Carol.
I think he just holds her and they look at each other for a moment.
God, you came back for us.
Hey, when we get back, I think I got primer. just holds her and they look at each other for a moment god you you came back for us that's
hey when we get back i think i got primer like it's weird to explain but i spent a lot of time here and a lot of time travel stuff happened and and i think i'd get that movie if we watched it
again her eyes get so wide and so happy of all the things you could have possibly said to her
that was the absolute last thing she
was expecting and the absolute pleasantest surprise and she goes i would love to watch
primer again how's grant by the way grant is you know what he's i've set up a recurring favorite
appointment for him and i thought i should set one up for us too that's that's what i was i'm so
that's what i was gonna say too carol i I'm just, I have a lot to talk about.
I even met Frank here.
I got to see my dad again.
Oh, yeah.
Grant told me.
I just want to let you know that the only thing that got me through this was every day I was just thinking about how strong you were.
And I'm so happy to see you.
And we're going to make this work.
And I love you.
She kisses you deep on the mouth,
holds her hands against your cheeks,
and looks you straight in the eyes,
and she says, I love you too.
And I always have, and no matter what happens,
I always will.
Same.
So when I look over at Morgan and Jody and Nick,
I assume they're like by the portal talking.
Yeah, they're all by the portal talking,
very happy to see one
another again. And Morgan looks
a little bit confused as they explain the whole
Jody's sort of a demon and I'm sort of a demon thing.
A lot of hand gestures, a lot of like timeline
stuff. Making horns with their fingers.
She's like kind of okay with it. She's like okay, okay.
There's like all a very complicated diagram.
And Carol comes over to primer it up a little bit.
I like that it gets like this moment where
the Simpsons,
during Christmas, they look into Flanders' household
and they're all just super happy and talking.
And Glyn takes a mournful sigh and he's like,
well, time to kill my fucking dad.
Turn around, I cock my gun and be like,
this bullet's for Bill.
Where is he?
So earlier when he readied an action,
he was reading it in the case that you managed to defeat Barry,
which you did.
And as I said, he was going to stealthily do something.
And that was walk away.
He left.
He ran.
Oh my gosh.
He just ran away.
You see Bill Close-sized footprints into the distance.
Dude, somehow he got your gun.
No, no, no, no, no.
I still have my gun.
You still have your gun.
And I do the fucking point break thing where I go,
and I shoot the rest of the bullets into the air.
And Anthony, what does the cloud do?
Well, you have to ask a good question.
What do I do about my dad?
All the gun smoke resolves to do an image of Nick.
The gun was wise all along.
And Nick is actually, you hear behind you.
Everybody's ducked.
Everybody's ducked.
Daryl's like, what's going on?
Daryl's like checking Grant's body.
Like, were you hit?
Were you hit?
Henry and Mercedes did not duck.
So you hear little Mickey's voice behind you going,
Glenn?
Yeah.
You, you're right.
It's pretty metal what we did here, but.
That was pretty cool.
You seemed kind of bummed.
Yeah.
I guess I should have expected it my whole
life my dad wasn't ever really around he was always kind of a piece of shit an in and out
yeah yeah yeah piece of shit yeah that tracks it seems like he was not the best i don't want to be
like that and i dropped my gun onto the ground it fucking impacts the dirt in slow motion oh you dropped
your your and he picks the gun back do you mean to drop the gun yeah you're right i should hang
on to this it's a gun it's pretty useful value it's gonna be great it's fucking not registered
i'll sell this shit no no nick and i'm gonna turn around and i look over at Jody and Morgan who are talking over there. They look, I don't know.
They look pretty.
Yeah.
Yeah, they do.
You know what?
And that's, I'm okay with that.
She deserves that.
That person over there, she's not my Morgan.
My Morgan died a long time ago.
But she is your mom, man.
So you fucking don't spend all your time in hell.
Like, make sure you spend good time with her, man.
No, yeah, I was going to.
Yeah, no, that makes a lot of sense.
I figured I would sort of, you know, spend like 90-10 split,
you know, hanging out with mom to hell kind of thing.
Every other weekend with the devil.
Yeah, every other weekend with Satan,
who canonically loves Christmas music thanks to you.
I'll tell you one thing, bud.
I'm not going to be like my dad.
I'm going to be in your life.
To the extent that stupid cop Jody and her will be okay with it,
I'd like to be in your life.
Hey, I'd like you to be in my life too.
Do you want to go talk to them?
Do you want to meet my mom again?
Yeah.
So little Nikki takes you over to Jody and Morgan,
who are embracing and smiling and laughing and crying.
And it was a wild ride I'll never forget.
And Morgan puts her hands on her hips and goes,
it sounds like it.
What a storyteller Jody is.
I just wanted to introduce my demon uncle, Glenn.
Oh, yeah.
This is Morgan.
This is Glenn.
Well, where he's from, he had someone just...
I'm just...
Think of me as a friend and a fellow co-parent.
You know?
I mean...
As a godfather, if you will.
I was going for uncle.
Godfather's good. I like godfather. I like
godfather too. Morgan's like, did you say cut? And the little lady's like, no, no, no, he did
not. He did not. He's a godfather. Somebody's co-parent. And I put my hand out for a handshake
and Morgan takes it and she goes, nice to meet you. And I go, here's a little trick I learned
from a friend of mine, Glenn Close.
Nice to meet you.
Henry and Mercedes break out of their passionate embrace,
and he looks at the other dad and says, well, guys, should we head out?
Yeah, let's go home.
Let's get the heck out of here.
Let's win that soccer tournament.
Oh, I think that's long gone, Ron.
Yeah, I know.
I mean, we got disqualified.
There were no kids there.
It was also a news story.
So Carol's like, we could monetize it.
I think that's a little creepy, but there are government agencies that have questions.
There's a whole lot of stuff that's going to happen.
It's a true crime podcast.
A lot of people, there's definitely a period of time where they thought we had gone girl,
you all, and that was a whole thing.
But no, this is going to be a lot less creepy now that you're back. So as everyone's heading to the portal, Glenn hangs back a little bit and goes,
hey, guys, you go on ahead.
Maybe I'll see you guys around, but don't come looking for me.
Glenn.
Yeah.
It's been an honor, man.
Hey, you weren't too half bad yourself.
Thanks.
You remember when I got rid of that nuke with a ghost, man?
That was incredible.
That shit was lit.
Holy shit. I'm an integral part of this team. Hey, Glenn, man? That was incredible. That shit was lit. Holy shit.
I'm an integral part of this team.
Hey, Glenn, seriously?
Yeah.
You're going to be a great dad.
You were a great one, and you're going to be a great one.
I think I wasn't too good of a dad.
But you know what?
Maybe I will be in the future.
But I'm going to be a good dad right now to this kid right here.
Right, Nick?
Damn right.
And he fist bumps you, and rat demon Nick Jr.
goes squeakak squeak on
your shoulder and then I guess a
portal to hell where a bunch
of Christian demons are
playing Christmas music
you hear jingle bells lightly through
the portal. Christian teen demons
don't you forget about me starts playing
yeah you freeze frame as you punch
the air. We do cool just like dad handshakes to
Glenn. Yeah just cool dad handshakes to Glenn yeah just cool
dad handshakes to Glenn
you know what
bring it in you guys
yes
one last dad hug
for the road
dad huddle
we do a dad hug
we all do a big dad hug
camera pans back
and Erin O'Neill
is just
has her arms crossed
is looking at you
and Vince
her two dimensional
boyfriend comes up
and he goes
I'm so sorry
I missed everything but were they good dads at the end and aaron goes
so it's like the end of super bad but with three dads because we all hold our wives hands
we all kind of like glancing at each other so we we tearfully watch gl Glenn step into the portal and vanish into thin air.
And then Henry looks to Daryl and Ron and says, I think we're done here.
I think it's time to go home.
I grab Carol's hand and I squeeze it and I give her a smile and I walk towards the portal.
Let's go home.
Henry gives one last look over his shoulder back to his mom across the battlefield.
And he just he gives her the tearful nod.
And she gives him the tearful nod back, knowing that she doesn't want to follow you it would be too oh mom do you want to follow
do you want to come now that you've invited me yeah i kind of do yeah all right there's not a
lot for me here the ophelians are real dumb oh yeah yeah all right so yeah let's let's oh hi i'm
i'm i'm mercedes this is my mom i can't believe i wasn't going to introduce you what was i thinking
with that cool guy thing mom come on let's. Let's go. Yeah, yeah. And Mercedes
is like, oh, pleasure to meet you. And Autumn's like, oh, pleasure
to meet you. Are those J.O. Crystals? And she's like,
they are! And Autumn's
like, that is fantastic. Let me
tell you some things about J.O. Crystals.
I don't know.
It's fine. I'm okay with my mom being a sexual
being.
You three and your
wives, your mother,
and even with Glenn not with you you knowing that you know his son
his ex-wife that the people that mean the most to him are safe that through everything that happened
you lost payden you lost glenn in a sense it wasn't a a bloodless victory but in the end
despite everything as you would always hoped but always sort of doubted in the back of your minds, everything actually was all right.
There was a time when you could read between the lines.
You know, they never brought you down they never brought you down

We hope you've enjoyed and we'll see you soon a couple of weeks later we go to the oak garcia
household where all of your favorite characters are hanging out in the living room.
And they're waiting for the person to show up with a movie for movie night.
Oh, can someone get that?
I'm still adding cultivated yeast to the popcorn.
Oh, I got it.
I got it, buddy.
Fuck, really?
Cultured yeast?
It's a thing you put on popcorn.
It's really good.
We have it all the time here at the Oak Garcia household.
Daryl, can you get the door?
I got it.
You can't talk yet.
You're not in the house yet, Freddie.
I know, I know.
Yeah.
Glad I brought bagged popcorn.
Also, Beth May is in the corner.
IRL Beth May?
Yeah, real IRL Beth May just on the corner
just looking at pictures of Jake Gyllenhaal on her phone.
Hey, Beth, you want some popcorn?
Busy!
She screams at Ron. That's just how she is sometimes
daryl opens up the door and it's demon glenn hey hey glenn yo i brought the movie oh the blue did
any of us talk about movie night oh i invited him oh good yeah no i feel really bad i think i didn't
know i don't really deal with hell very much i I just did. You're always invited, Glenn.
Glenn puts a hand on your shoulder,
and it's like,
everything you know about Christianity
is different now.
And then a little Nick Jr. on your shoulder
goes squeak, squeak,
and then does the sign of the cross.
And then I'm like, I brought the movie.
He holds his rosary in his pocket.
Just fingers his rosary as hard as he can.
And then Glenn goes,
hey, I brought the movie,
the Minions one.
Oh, you brought those
Banana Boy movies?
I love those guys.
Not the Banana Boy movies.
That's a different set of movies.
Oh, boy.
Little Nicky's like,
Minions, Minions, Minions.
And then Glenn withdraws
the Natural 20 blunt
that he stored in.
The moment I thought
he had a character arc
and I was like,
oh, he learned about
the minions.
That's really nice.
But there he goes.
He looks at Daryl's
disapproving look.
He looks at Daryl's
disapproving look
and he goes like,
one, it's legal.
Number two,
I'm not going to go
to hell for it.
Number three,
I'm not saying you
go to hell for it.
I'm just saying
there's kids here.
You're going to smoke
a blunt right now.
I'll go to the backyard.
I just,
this is the only way
I'm going to get
through this fucking movie,
dude.
Daryl looks around
and is like,
can I have,
just a quick,
when you died, I did, it was the first time I and then we're in the front yard you know it's very suburban ass front yard like all right here have a toke here and I go
click it up I take a toke Daryl's cool now
and a criminal so inside uh uh the remaining you know all the wives and all the kids are chatting amongst each other.
Terry Jr. is playfully giving a noogie to Grant, who is tackling him to the ground in the fun way that kids fight, but like, not really.
To the death.
Yeah, to the death.
Yeah, that's definitely what Larkin Sparrow is dancing.
But then we go to the kitchen.
And while Henry is doing abominable things to popcorn.
It's a whole spice rack in this thing right now.
It's just a lot going on.
Lark and Sparrow walk in.
Hey, my beautiful boys.
How's it going?
You guys ready to see this Minion movie?
Lark is averting your gaze.
And Sparrow says, Father, I know, we know that things have been different for some time.
And that since we've returned, L has been shall we say sullen but
lark i have a good vocabulary fuck you i love it but lark i believe you have an apology for father
oh lark that's so sweet you don't need to apologize for anything buddy i kneel down and get on lark's
level you know i just you know whatever you want to say to me though i hope you know you can say it
so lark comes in for an embrace he says i really do need to apologize father i am sorry
sorry for what bud for this and in that moment you feel a blade enter your back between your
shoulder blades a knife and it's not a very deep wound but it hurts and you feel it go all the way
in and he steps away from you and he just shakes his head and he goes, I'm so sorry, father.
As you look into his eyes,
you remember all the horrible things
that brought you to this moment.
You remember coming to the Forgotten Realms
and you being the first person to cast a spell
to entangle a red cloak so that he could be defeated.
You remember using your jazz ball skills
to build walls of fire and stone around each other.
You remember obviating the entire football game
by digging in trenches and stuff. You remember
using the power of your mind and your colon
to completely immolate David
Boreanaz, even as he was screaming that
all he had ever wanted was for the Lord of Chaos
to spill the blood of the unsung hero. And as you
think about that, you remember that as the door slammed
on Willie Stampler, he
had cast the message spell.
And in this moment, you realize
as Lark mouths it in front of you, what that message was.
Henry Oak is the unsung hero.
And the Lord of Chaos has just spilled his blood.
Oh, shit.
And suddenly you and your two children find yourselves wracked with convulsions as you all begin to vomit up a stream of black and gray.
Oh, my God.
What the fuck? Static, tight stuff. Oh my god. What the fuck?
Static.
Oh god.
Do you see it in the living room?
Like, are we?
Yes, everyone in the living room, everyone outside can hear it
as a deep, bassy rumble actually begins to be heard all across the planet.
After what feels like forever,
you stop heaving up this black bile substance,
and it begins to form into a cloud,
and it escapes out the nearest open window.
I stagger to my feet.
I check on my voice.
Are you guys all right?
Are you okay?
You hear a smash of glass outside.
You hear car alarms blaring.
Oh, God.
So if you want to head outside.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The sound draws us outside, I'm assuming.
I pick up my two boys and I run out the door.
So Lark is like borderline catatonic, given what he just did.
And Sparrow is, tears are spilling down Sparrow's eyes.
And as you head out into the front yard, you look up and you see what was the small cloud of static beginning to grow larger and larger in the sky.
And it begins to completely fill the sky, blotting out even the moon.
You can tell it begins to encircle your entire field of vision.
It begins to encircle the earth.
The sky is turning this horrible
black, staticky color.
And you know, in this
moment, that the doodler has
returned. Thanks for watching!
