Dungeons and Daddies is a rowdy, horny, violent podcast for grown-ups.

Taylor, I'm in position. Northeast side of the pearly gates.
Excellent, Link. From here, you'll be able to open the piss portal from heaven into hell and let the rest of the team in.
There's only one problem, Taylor. There's a biblically accurate angel hovering above. It's waiting for me to pee.
Careful, Link. If you start peeing now...
I know. I won't be able to stop the stream.
And that'll be the end of this mission, because angels will know when your bladder is empty
and you're lying to them.
Hmm. That might make breaking everyone into heaven and meeting my grandpa Darrell Wilson
and getting his memory daddy magic to save the doodler from Willie a little bit more
challenging.
Link, do you know Dr. Arnold Kegel?
Are you referring to the American gynecologist Arnold Henry Kegel, the assistant professor of gynecology at the Keck School of
Medicine at USC? Correct, but beyond teaching medical students in Southern California,
do you know what he's known for? No, I don't.
Three years after Emperor Hirohito surrendered to the Allies at the end of World War II,
ending Japan's involvement in the war in the Pacific,
Arnold Kegel invented a series of exercises designed to strengthen the muscles in the pelvic floor.
He called them Kegels.
That does sound useful, but what does that have to do with the mission?
Dr. Kegel was studying how pelvic floor exercises could help prevent systocele, rectocele, and urinary stress incontinence. However, he also
found numerous benefits to working out the muscles in your pelvic floor, including an above-average
ability to regulate urine flow. So you're saying with Kegels, I'll be able to start peeing, but
able to continue peeing so I don't have to tell an angel I need to pee, and then I won't be lying. That way I'll be able to operate in heaven without being impeded.
Exactly, Link. Impeded. What's going on, Link? Link, is everything all right?
Everything's fine. I'm just doing Kegels now, and it's working.
Excellent, Link. We'll see you on the other side.
Piss boy out.
Welcome to Dungeons and Daddies, not a BDSM podcast.
What is it then? This is a podcast about teenage problems.
Well, we just lost half of our viewers.
That's the best one yet.
If you're having teen problems,
I feel bad for you, son.
I got 100,000 other podcasts you should listen to.
What a sit-ain't-one.
Am I right?
Pretty good.
Yeah, that's pretty good.
This is a story of four teens
who got married and then have to fix
all the problems that their grandparents did.
What an unfair burden on these teens.
Truly, the heroes. God gives his greatest battles unfair burden on these teens. Truly the heroes.
God gives his greatest battles to his mightiest teens.
My name is Freddie Wong.
I play Taylor Swift, the ranger teen of the group,
who's maybe respeccing,
once he looks at some help documentation on dndbeyond.com.
Something the writers are fighting for right now
is there's too much respec work going on in Hollywood.
Terrible.
This week's teen fact,
Taylor knows the
Titanic like the back of his fucking hand
because the Titanic, all of its details
were detailed in a
Pixar animated film that Taylor's
a huge fan of.
Okay. It's called Boats.
It's called Pixar's Boats.
And it's about the Titanic.
Well, it's the hero boat.
Yes, I can.
Yes, I can.
Yes, I can.
No, I can't.
So it'd be about the Carpathia,
who is the boat that came and rescued the people from the Titanic.
But it's like everybody's down on the Carpathia.
And then finally, the biggest, mightiest boat sinks.
And who needs to step up but the Carpathia?
Yeah, yeah.
That's it.
Pixar's Boats. Pixar's Boats. Pixar's Boats. No, no, but the Carpathia. Yeah, yeah. That's it. Pixar's boats.
Pixar's boats.
Pixar's boats.
No, no, but it was like boats.
I'm just imagining a movie about like a little like Titanic Junior,
but like being like a classic Disney orphan.
You know what I mean?
Oh, Titanic Junior is like a little tow boat.
And my dad's a Titanic.
I can pull my dad.
It's like your dad's at the bottom of the ocean.
Guess what?
Now you have to live with your mean uncle.
Oh, the mean uncle is just like a schooner with sale like from the age of sale
anyway anyway hey everybody my name is matthew's quality really dropped off hey everybody my name
is matthew arnold i play the future soccer star lincoln boss kicks schooled in a prison
mind freed by his friends and now a paladin to his spouses can we get a prison, mind-freed by his friends, and now a paladin to his spouses.
Can we get a Free Your Mind clip from The Matrix in there just as an audio drop?
Free your mind.
Can we also get a mind freak?
Lincoln M. Kicks, mind freak.
Little known fact about Lincoln when he's stuck in his homeschooled prison.
One thing he never learned anything about, either the feature
film or the historical event,
is the Titanic for some reason.
He knows nothing.
He knows nothing about the Titanic.
The only thing he knows about the Titanic is that it's a synonym
for large.
He just thinks, yeah, it's a big.
He took Latin.
People use the term, that was a Titanic success.
He's like, yeah, I get it. I thought this was the biggest quiznos subsize interesting by the way interesting
little thing about that titan right a titan titanic like a titan yeah anyway yeah okay is
that interesting i thought it was really interesting pretty basic that's just saying
what the titanic is well yeah but like but like, but like instead, but we'll like, does it mean like a
Matt in Latin class
must have been
as the original Latin
of that Madonna song
is Ica virgin.
Hi, everyone.
I'm Will Campos.
I play normal,
low perky,
peppy, chipper,
cherry school spirit,
mascot kid,
Titanic themed fact
about normal this week
is that normal does not know
anything about the titanic either because he can never tell the titanic and the rms lusitania apart
that was the one that was sunk by u-boats on may 7th 1915 right and it's like no that's the
lusitania normal classic normal goof there you go so silly. My name is Beth May, and I play Scary Marley,
a goth punk seeker of darkness who is not like the other warlocks.
She doesn't want to care anymore.
Fun fact about Scary this week is that Scary is unknowingly,
no, I think she must know.
Wait, I don't know if she knows or not.
Let's see.
You're the god of scary.
I really am.
No, she doesn't know.
She doesn't know that she's the benefactor
of extreme generational wealth.
What?
That's right.
Her step-grandfather, Ron Stampler,
went into business with his friend, Beth May,
on a great object.
And people bought it.
They bought his objects.
And this object is the unsinkable love float for two.
That's right.
It's a door-shaped pool float
with just enough room for you and your heart of the ocean.
There's plenty of room.
Nobody has to get in the water.
Wait, what does it look like?
Beth is literally reading the copy.
I'm not.
I'm staring at Will.
She's reading the press announcement directly into camera.
There's a camera here filming an infomercial.
It's shaped like the door from the major motion picture Titanic, which is actually based on a bit of side paneling.
That's a real sort of object from the Titanic itself.
But, you know, James Cameron in his infinite wisdom changed it to a door.
Great on him.
Big fan.
And so, yeah, Ron went into business with Beth May to make these pool floats, and he made millions and millions of dollars.
That's how he could afford that tour to the Titanic.
Yeah.
Did he fuck over Beth May and the business partnership
and she's left penniless?
Like where'd all that money go?
No, Beth is really, really rich.
Beth is rich and happy too.
Wait, so why doesn't Scary know that she should be rich?
Is it because Beth's hoarding all the money
now that Ron's dead?
Yes.
Beth went to Ron and said like,
I'll be your business manager.
We have to do a fucking one-shot
where the teens have to spend a night
in Beth May's haunted mansion.
Oh, shit.
Called the Immortal Soul Salvage Yard
because there's a bunch of spooky ghosts in there.
I'm a big fan of our NPC, Beth May,
having millions of dollars that are rightfully scary
that she's hanging on to after Ron Stamper died.
Beth has created a mansion
like the Winchester house
this fall.
These crazy doors
to keep ghosts
from bothering her.
Love it.
I'm Anthony Burch.
I'm your dad.
Hey, Papa.
Daddy's sick.
If I sound different,
it's yeah,
it's because I got the rona.
So I'm separate.
And one of the not known
symptoms of COVID
is not being funny.
So that's what I'm going
to rely on
as my excuse
for this episode.
Guys, I didn't know it,
but I have long COVID
since before the podcast started.
Can we all say we have COVID then?
Nope, it's just me and Beth.
That's stolen valor, Matthew.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry you're sick, Anthony.
I am too.
I think I got sick doing a charity thing,
which is evidence from God
that I should never step outside my lane.
That's not right, God.
Yeah.
So when we last left you, you had gone into the memory of Grant and Daryl Wilson as part of your ongoing quest to collect enough daddy magic to send Dude, your eldritch friend, back to the
dimension from whence they came. The memory that you saw was Grant on his wedding night.
Oh, God!
Talking to Daryl about how he was too scared to be with somebody and that he didn't quite know
if he wanted to marry Marco because Marco was too good for him. In that moment, Scam actually appeared and gifted everybody in the scene
with an all expense paid trip to the Titanic
on its maiden voyage.
Scam actually goes, yes, yes, you're welcome.
It's the most famous ship in all the world,
in your world anyway, and I thought you would love it.
A little early honeymoon.
Wait, what are you four doing here?
And he looks and sees, when you look at each other,
the teens,
you see yourselves dressed like old timey
like 1910s teens.
Oh, I've got no drip.
Oh my God.
I should go to the hospital.
Oh my God.
I think I'm pulling off
this newsboy cap.
What do you guys think?
Actually, yeah,
it looks pretty good.
Actually, I mean,
yeah, I guess.
Oh, wow.
What's dude dressed as?
Dude is dressed in
a very tasteful newsboy outfit
or newsbaby outfit that covers up all the curves
but leaves a lot to the imagination.
The dream.
I'm looking at pictures of 1910s teenage fashion.
It's just 1940s old man fashion.
It's just straight up.
It looks like three ad men,
but they're supposedly teenagers,
so I guess that's
what we look like.
I think Link looks straight up
like he's been
shoveling coal into the ship.
He's already got dirt
on his sheets.
You think he's wearing
a black shirt,
but he's actually shirtless
but just covered in soot.
He's just got torn up pants
and he's just sweating
and his hair is like singed.
He's like, oh God.
One last detail though
because Taylor,
coming a little bit from the Asian perspective.
No, he does not look the way you think that he looks.
Whatever you're imagining, it's not that.
I'm just looking at some photos.
Freddie gets to do whatever he wants with his character.
Let's just say there's some sleeves.
And an interesting hairdo.
Yeah, to paint us a picture.
How does Taylor look?
I think Taylor looks like straight up,
if you don't mind me saying,
a Chinaman of the period, as they say.
According to Getty Images, this is a typical look.
Freddie, I don't know what would be more offensive,
me supporting you in this or me saying you can't do this.
I'm just going to stay quiet.
Chinese people existed at the turn of the century.
There's nothing offensive.
I'll tell you what, though.
I don't think any of them were on the Titanic.
I know what picture.
It's not offensive.
It's offensive that you find it funny.
That's what it is.
Hold on.
Let me just check if there are any Chinese people in the Titanic.
Freddie Grant has white people.
Forgive me.
Literally, there were six Chinese people on Titanic.
And to be fair, the pictures of them, they are in some dapper suits.
So Taylor is in a dapper suit as the seventh of the six people who are on the titanic wow i didn't
know this well okay um mr likely so like wait is this the memory what happened why how are we here
like we can't be here so grant grabs scam actually by his multicolored collar and he goes what did
you do why are we what where are we and scam goes it's a honeymoon present the titanic it's the most
famous human ship i thought you'd love it the tit honeymoon present, the Titanic. It's the most famous human ship.
I thought you'd love it.
The Titanic is famous for a reason.
Where's Marco?
I don't know. He's on here somewhere.
I guess you should find him.
Do you need me to take you back?
Yes, of course I need you to take me back.
Okay, well, I guess if you can find something old,
something new, something borrowed and something blue,
then I can use those to bring you back to your own time.
Off you go.
And Grant goes, where the fuck, Marco?
Marco!
And he starts running. Oh, Grant, dad. Grant looks back with confusion in his eyes at the child saying dad and Scam goes, oh, no, no, no, no, no. So you all are from the future.
I'm assuming you were looking at his memory or something. Yeah. Yeah. We're from the present.
You know us. You've met us. Well, not yet. Time doesn't quite work that way for me.
So here's the thing.
You can't create a paradox.
This is just a memory of somebody to you.
So you can't go and change anything too crazily.
Oh, OK.
So like, we're fine.
Like, we're not really here.
Like, we're not here, right?
We're like, no, you're here for sure.
You're here for realsies.
And you'll drown if you don't get off the Titanic.
How's that work?
But he looks at Daryl and he goes, I mean, you're feeling good, though right? Yeah. Well, okay. Well, scam. Hey, bud, this is kind of coming
back to me. I don't think I was here. Like, can you bring us back? Like, I really appreciate my
grandkid not dying on the Titanic before I even met. Yeah, buddy. I'll make a deal with you.
Don't worry, kiddos. I got this covered. As Daryl and Ron say this, they begin to
fade away and you hear an angelic voice go.
Oh, no.
Oh, God.
Which you interpret as they found out that you're trying to leave heaven
by jumping into a memory, and you're being pulled back.
I yell back.
I'm like, hey, we didn't do it on purpose.
We're coming back.
Just calm down.
I put my name on the out list,
and then I'll put it on the in list when I'm back in.
Ron, I think you got to play it cool because you already got in trouble for actually escaping last time.
I'm just such a bad boy.
You are.
I mean, you can't be that bad.
You made it up there.
Mr. Ron, if they let bad boys in heaven, I guess there still is hope for a guy like me.
Absolutely not, kiddo.
And with that, Ron fades away.
Oh, no, Ron.
Just, you should just get on a lifeboat.
Hold your breath a really long time.
What?
Oh, no, I don't want to tell you anything.
I watched that primer.
Ignore everything I said.
I shouldn't change the timeline.
Maybe you're supposed to die.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
I think Daryl said it was maybe you're supposed to die.
Oh, God.
Okay.
So we're here.
So we're on the Titanic.
We can die.
Which means any minute now, you boats are going to show up and torpedo the ship.
No.
Norm, that's not how it works.
We run into an iceberg, and then it's like, it hits the sun.
Scary, you're thinking of the Lusitania.
As you say iceberg, you hear in the distance a voice cry out, iceberg, run ahead.
And then there's a rumble.
There's a rumble beneath your feet as the ship bounces up against something. And it doesn't seem like that big of a deal. It just feels like there's a little rock beneath your feet as the ship bounces up against something.
And it doesn't seem like that big of a deal.
It just feels like there's a little rock under your feet.
That's not a big deal.
I'm sure they bumped into stuff on the Lusitania before the U-boat.
We got to get out of here, though.
No, wait.
We can't.
Stop.
Don't move.
Don't touch anything.
Don't step on any butterflies.
Don't do anything.
This is a memory, right?
Yeah.
But Grant, my dad, they made it.
I think we just have to accept we're supposed
to die here what if we do anything we might stop like right like we can't do anything because if
we do something they might change what happened and grant and marco they did make it no no no
what if they made it because of stuff that we did oh god that's the part how do we know what
happened what is death but the ending of consciousness
so if we die in these bodies where our consciousness might end yeah that's i think
that's what death is scary well hold on you're like super goth though right and like you should
kind of like is this the first time you've realized that death means that like you die
i mean it'd be super metal if we did but i'm'm just saying that like, it doesn't have to be like the end of everything.
You know,
it would actually be more metal if like we continued living,
but wanting death.
Well,
listen up folks,
do it.
Listen up folks,
you happen to be in the employ of one of the greatest Titanic trivia
historians this world has ever seen.
Just follow my lead and we'll be fine.
Wait,
scam likely says something about grants going going to go Mr. Mr. Wilson is going to go get a bunch of like something new something
borrowed something blue whatever so like I guess you're right we don't know if we did help in the
past or whatnot I guess the best thing we can do is do our best to make sure that my dad stay alive
okay so how many people died wait you guys seem to know what you're talking about like this boat
yeah like 1700 people died on this 1496 guys seem to know what you're talking about. Correct. Like this boat. Yeah, like 1,700 people died on this boat.
1,496 people died.
Like you guys just know about like their engagement wedding or whatever.
No, no.
Why would we know about your dad's engagement wedding?
Why do you know about this boat?
I assume like my dad must have told you about it or something.
Oh, no.
Dude.
Okay.
Wait, you've never seen Titanic?
I mean, I've seen things that are Titanic.
God.
Okay. No, I mean like
the story of timeless love.
Yeah, go ahead if you're going to do that.
Next to the Joker, the ultimate story of
timeless love. That's true.
That's very true. Okay, so
Titanic's frequently on the top ten list of all movies
of all time right next to the Joker. Here's what
you need to know. The Titanic was an ocean
liner that was launched by the Cunard line
in 1906 and held the Blue Ribbon
Appalachian for the fastest Atlantic crossing
in 1908. No, that's the Lusitania.
No, I'm pretty sure
I got this right. There's a Royal Navy
blockade going on. It's the evil
World War I. Don't listen to these nerds.
Here's what you need to know.
Don't listen to these nerds.
Here's what you need to know.
And then Taylor raises his voice so everyone hears.
67% of everyone will
be dead in just
a few hours.
Okay, but what you really need to know is like
the hottest girl ever meets
the hottest boy ever. And she's
in first class. And he is
right here.
No, not you.
Does Hermie look exactly like Jack T jack toxin yes oh he's got
like a sketchbook and everything yeah and scary yeah scary to just like stop talking
oh okay scary okay so scam oh this this feels like scam so that my dads are on a boat that
sinks in the past is what you're saying yes yes because my shitty dad is a stupid idiot and we're
on that boat too oh okay yeah okay. Yeah, that is...
Oh, fuck.
Yeah, Hermie, what's up with your dad?
He sucks is what's up with him.
That's why I wanted to kill him
and you guys narked on me
and decided not to kill him.
Oh, that's true.
Well, I'm kind of regretting that choice right now.
Hey, Hermie, I just want to say
your anger at your dad is valid.
And I'm sorry that I was like,
don't kill your dad
because now it seems like we're all going to die.
But you guys know what happened.
So let's just go talk to the captain.
It's simple.
All we have to do is go find the captain
and get him a notice about the u-boats that are coming to sink the ship right no i mean okay no
the captain already saw all these iceberg warnings right but he's like nah i want to set a record oh
that's right we're on the lusitania okay i got it i'm up to speed all right so no we need an
audience with the captain yeah yeah let's go tell them to
not sink.
It feels like the sooner he knows, that's bad.
But remember, we can't alter the timeline.
We can't alter history. You just said that we could, though.
Because I suggested we do nothing, and you said we can't do that.
So let's go. What about this? Hear me out. What if we just
go follow your dad from a safe
distance? He's going to go do
the stuff, and if it seems like he's not
going to be able to do any of the things,
then we step in discreetly to do
the thing, and then it gets done. And we can't save
the other people? They're gone. Oh, yeah, man.
The bulkhead doors only go up to E-Deck,
man. Oh, God. Okay. The water
spills over. It's really like there's no, like,
you guys know your history, because you seem
conflicted, the two of you. Now that
I know we're on the Lusitania, not the
Titanic, it's all clear to me. The Lusitania hit an an iceberg and it's all good to go so we're all the same page
so it's we're fine okay we won't save them now wink but for now let's follow my dad okay
maybe we should tell people that it's sinking though right as we go right yeah yeah yeah
definitely hey everyone in here just to be clear you're gonna want in this room anthony who's in Maybe we should tell people that it's sinking, though, right as we go, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely.
Hey, everyone in here, just to be clear.
You're going to want to be. Who's in this room, Anthony?
Who's in the room with us?
You're on the deck, so it's a bunch of people out enjoying the sea air.
It's cold as shit out here.
There's two fucking guys playing soccer with a chunk of the ice.
I was literally about to say the soccer thing was going to happen.
Link starts running after his dad.
Then he sees a soccer game going on.
And he's like, the boat's sinking.
The boat's sinking. The boat's sinking.
Or not.
Whatever you think I said back then, it happened.
Just go near the lifeboats.
Whoa.
And then I see the ice.
And I fucking do a cool, I try to do a rainbow with it.
I want to join the game.
As you head towards the two deckhands playing soccer with a big chunk of ice,
you see that one of them has in his hand what looks to be a bottle of some very old aged whiskey
and it seems to be glowing a light purple color.
Bro, the ship's sinking and you deckhands are playing soccer with whiskey?
And drinking on the job.
That's wild, bro.
But this is pre-OSHA.
I can't do an Irish accent,
but imagine this is a non-offensive Irish accent that I'm speaking in.
Actually, in Ireland, it's O'Shea.
With my 18 athletics,
I kick the ice up
and I hold it on my foot
and I say,
I don't play.
I play hard.
I play.
I won't play.
I won't play soccer.
Faith and Bacari,
I really lost that sentence,
didn't you?
I'd like to do
an Arcana roll
on this glove
because I'm just like,
purple is like,
you know,
the purple vibes
are purple in this show.
So I'm going to go ahead and roll Arcana.
I'm going to roll purpleness.
I got a nine.
You're so purple coated.
I'm so purple coated.
You're maroon peeled and purple coated.
And with a nine,
you can tell that there is some magic associated with this particular bottle that he is holding.
The bottle's like,
this is the skin of a killer Bella.
Sorry.
That's actually, you know what? I think that people will listen okay wait don't don't cut it from the episode i think
that people will enjoy it so there i'm just gonna leave it at that can we enjoy it can you tell us
do you know how many fucking stupid gamer references beth has to put up with on this show
we cannot understand something beth said for once okay Okay? It's fine. I'll Google it.
I want to know. No, we can have the experience
of having a bunch of people explain it to us
online afterwards. I think that
sounds great. Anybody else want to roll Arcana?
I will. If we were dogs, you'd be rolling Barkana.
Oh, wow. Yeah.
That's an 11.
Alright, with an 11.
Jesus Christ, Frederick.
Roll Arcana to save us. You get disadvantage on your next roll for that joke. Don't worry. Jesus Christ, Frederick. With an 11. We'll work on it to save us.
You get disadvantaged on your next roll for that joke.
Don't worry.
I know exactly where we are.
That's an 18 plus 220.
Freddie's like, do you know that if a cat was a doctor,
it would practice meowed a sin and then expects us to be like,
ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
No, I don't expect anything from anybody at this point.
It's just that we weren't talking about dogs.
That's what made it so out of the square.
So with an 18, you can tell that this is the something old
in the spell that this game likely requires
to send everyone back.
Now, is it the bottle or is it the booze?
Is it the bottle or is it the booze?
It is the...
Interesting.
It is the booze.
Okay.
And they're drinking it?
Hey, stop drinking!
Oh, wait. Guys, I can't even notice that. It's the 1910s. I don't it? Hey, stop drinking! Oh, wait.
It's the 1910s.
I don't think you're going to have much luck with that, my friend.
Oh, I'm so cold.
If only I had a little hot drink to warm me up.
All right, roll persuasion.
Okay.
Try and look as consumptive as possible, Beth.
Okay, so that's a 13 plus 5, which is 18.
And I say, oh, normally daddy won't let me have a drink,
but he said if I was a good girl and my fever was down,
I'd be able to have a little sip because it's so cold outside.
Scary, where did that come from?
Scary, holy cow.
You're a thespian.
Hermie is taking a back at your acting skills.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, I mean, I took like, you know, beginner drama.
Oh, wow.
What the fuck is going on?
The deckhand says,
ah, this will bring a bit of color back to your cheeks, won't it?
And gives you a sip of the-
And I hold it in my mouth.
I don't swallow it.
For the rest of the show.
Okay, I look for a cup or something.
Beth has taken a sip of liquid death and is currently holding it in her mouth.
Inside, there's the saloon deck.
The whole deck?
Damn, these motherfuckers partied.
D-Deck was the saloon deck on the real Titanic.
I'm not making that up.
Whoa.
And yes, there are many glasses and things.
Porter is like, excuse me, I believe the children are meant to be on the lower decks.
You must be lost.
We need a cup, sir. We need a cup
for our friend. Her tooth is broken.
And certainly not the child
of the Chinese ambassador.
And I stare
the guy down. Roll deception.
Three plus five,
eight. It's a shame you didn't roll better
because I could have done some really fun racist stuff
China has no ambassador to the Titanic
Surely not
To the Titanic
Yeah we do
We want to see how good the boats are
Your people are working on trains
Not the Titanic
You stay in your lane and I'll stay in mine
Sir, sir, he's not...
They said the train-tanic
could never be derailed.
Look, my friend here,
she's going to throw up,
so either she can throw up here
on the nice carpet
or just give us some sort of bucket or...
Not the carpet.
Yeah, just give us...
Just give us something
for her to throw up in.
Roll persuasion.
With advantage, that's good, right?
They don't want to throw up.
Well, I mean, it feels like
the most logical thing they would do
would be like,
okay, then vomit over the side.
That's what everybody else does no
okay i had to swallow it yeah that's so exhausting to hold liquid in your mouth for that long with
the 12th he just puts his arms out and tries to usher you back i'm gonna try and slide i'm gonna
try and slide a hand i'm gonna try and slide a hand off of like a lady with a big hat. I want to steal the glass
from her table.
But, Matt, she needs to be
a lady with a big hat so that I can
doof the hat and cause a bit of a
kerfuffle to cover my sleight of hand.
We shifty Orientals know
how to
get things done. Don't make me laugh
at that word.
Yeah, Will and Matt laughed.
Four plus one, five.
You shove this woman
and she spills her drink
all over her chest
and she gets up
and she goes,
how dare you?
And she takes out
her clutch.
Like the lady
from Rocco's Modern Life?
Yes, exactly.
She takes out her clutch
and she smacks you
across the face with it
and she goes,
get these children
back under decks.
What are they doing up here
where people of means
can see them? Anthony, I also did a slight hand roll and i got a 16 while she's saying
all that you do something what did you want to do so i wanted to do one of those moves where the
waiter is walking around with like the all the champagne flutes and then like as he's looking
i just kind of like casually like james bond just like grab a champagne flute and just chug the
whole thing down and then i just kind of like twirl it in my hand and like i hand it over to
scary and i'm like if you're gonna spew spew into this okay so this is also presumably the first and just chug the whole thing down. And then I just kind of like twirl it in my hand and like I hand it over to Scary
and I'm like, if you're going to spew, spew into this.
Okay, so this is also presumably
the first alcohol Normals ever had?
I had Henry's Hard Booch, but it has been a while.
Okay.
Should I make a constitution roll or something like that?
Yeah, give me a constitution roll, see if we're drunk.
I got a 13.
Okay, so you're not drunk.
You handle your liquor like a champ.
Wow.
And you're fucking partying, baby.
You're buzzed as hell, dog.
Scary spits out the whiskey into the, or brandy, rather, into the glass.
Into the glass.
Okay.
Okay, we got to hold on to this.
Great.
That's one down.
Okay, well.
We need to cover it. Grant wasn't even close to that.
So, like.
Yeah, those guys were going to drink all of that for sure by the time he got up there.
We got to find.
Your dad needs to get his act together.
Well, he must, but he did make it.
And he's about to let a catch like Marco slip through his fingers. I know. Well, he must... He's about to let it catch
like Marco slipped
through his fingers.
I know.
Like, seriously.
Your dad's so husband-filled.
Wait a second.
Link.
Yeah.
Do you realize what this means?
What?
If we had to intervene
to do this,
what if your dad calls it off
with Marco tonight?
What if this is too much?
Then you'll start fading
out of existence.
What if you don't exist anymore?
Yeah, the memory
he was expressing doubts.
I don't know.
Marco's got some game.
Like...
Oh, my God. Don't worry about Jack and Mac and my other dad. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that once Grant goes to... memory he was expressing doubts i don't know marco's got some game like oh my god
my other dad yeah i'm pretty sure that once grant goes to oh god i don't know i'm looking around
like am i changing to the deck with all the cars in it and there's just a hand slamming
like i feel it in my bones
things are going their love their love is. I feel like they'll be okay.
But we should find them
because we do need to make sure
they get off the Titanic
and everybody else,
every other person on this boat.
For sure, for sure, for sure.
Anthony, as they're throwing me
out of the rich people deck
because they didn't believe me,
I go, good thing this ship is unsinkable.
No need to get into any lifeboats.
It's all ignore the lifeboat announcements.
Shoot.
It makes me feel that makes me feel bad,
but that maybe I even sabotage them.
You never know.
Everybody is terrified except for unsinkable.
Molly Brown was like,
I don't trust those Orientals.
I think I'm going to make sure I get on a lifeboat as soon as I can.
So it's like,
I understand.
Cause I didn't know the history.
Like there was enough lifeboats and like everybody's allowed on.
Oh boy.
That's not what's wrong with the sentences I said.
Well,
again,
the lifeboats really don't come into play because after the torpedo hits.
Oh,
that's right.
I'm sorry.
We're on the Housetania.
Listen,
scary.
We can double team this.
Not only where they're not enough lifeboats,
not enough by half.
Oh,
Oh God.
They didn't even load them up efficiently.
Yeah.
They left loving dads on first, right? No, that's They didn't even load them up efficiently. Yeah.
But they left loving dads on first, right?
No, that's not what they did.
They didn't even get on.
No dads allowed.
They straight up had no dads. Who deserves to go on more than dads?
Who did they put on first then?
Well, kids.
Okay, but you're not a kid if you don't have a dad.
Okay.
What?
I mean, how could there be kids without dads?
So dads should go first, and then the kids could come on afterwards
and be like,
thanks dad,
for letting me be on.
That's not how it worked
back then.
That's just history.
I'm not saying I agree with it.
I'm just saying
that that's what happened.
And then who else?
Women and children
went on to the bus.
Okay,
I mean,
women are just like dads
but women.
So that's good.
That makes sense.
But kids should be last
is my point.
You think children
should be the last ones?
We can handle ourselves.
Speaking of handling ourselves, there's three more things to get.
Oh, gosh, we're not going to let them on.
So Scary grabs a life vest off the wall or whatever
and uses it to cover the glass and protect the glass.
Ooh, that's a good idea.
Nice.
Yeah, we're going to have to make sure.
We've got to make sure we don't spill this thing.
Yeah, I just want to make it as spill-proof as possible.
Let's follow.
How are we going to find Grant?
So you see on the wall of the deck, you see a diagram of the ship.
There are many decks on the ship.
There is the promenade deck, which is only for first-class passengers,
which has a lounge, a smoke room, and a reading room.
The bridge deck beneath that, where the people go to sleep.
The sea deck is the shelter deck for crew cabins.
The D deck, where you're on now, is the saloon deck.
I run to the first porter, and I say,
Sir, excuse me, I've lost my dad.
Where would two men
who love each other greatly
and are on a honeymoon together,
what part of the boat
would they be on?
They'd be in G-Deck for sure.
Okay, great.
Thanks.
Hey, thanks.
Okay, guys,
I think my dad's on D-Deck.
I tip the guy.
Oh, thank you.
With what?
So here you go.
What is this?
It's a piece of gum.
Here's a tip.
Gum's delicious.
And then we run off.
And then as we run off, I say, make sure to tell all the other porters.
Dude, but fucking, that thing's probably got like spearmint crystals, the likes of which his 1900s brain has never used.
Dude, if you gave someone five gum in the Titanic, dude.
Could you imagine if you hit them with a fucking juicy fruit?
I'm actually shocked that there's not a five gum commercial
with the Titanic hitting the iceberg.
It's like, what it's like to chew five gum.
The inside of your mouth is 98 degrees,
but the Titanic is much, much cooler.
Does anyone remember that ad?
Winter fresh gum?
It cuts to the porter like 30 seconds later after he's chewing.
He goes like, oh, it's no more flavor, huh?
My life has changed.
Aw.
So you head down to G-Deck and you see your fathers dressing themselves next to a steamy car.
And there's a sketch that's incredible.
Yes, there's an incredible sketch.
Oh, there's squash down here.
Marco is folding up a pudding into his.
Hey, sirs.
Hi, kids. Hi hi we're just uh this
we were just we'd lost a dog where we're looking for our dog yes marco says a dog we are looking
for our dog marco you never could lie we just been informed the boat's sinking i'm sorry the
boat's sinking just go yeah i've been sent by my father, the ambassador to China.
It's here to tell everyone, for your own safety,
please make your way to the lifeboats now.
That's right, you can't disagree with the ambassador of China.
No, no, the son, the son of the ambassador of China.
But you were just passing the word on because you're a good son.
You're a good son.
And a citizen of the world, indeed.
Okay.
So you two just go up and get on a boat.
I know it's sinking. I just didn't have a lot of hope for us to get out of this world, indeed. Okay. So you two just go up and get on a boat. I know it's sinking.
I just didn't have a lot of hope
for us to get out of this alive, frankly.
Wow, that is so metal.
Oh, no, that's sad.
What do you mean?
Yeah, just go up.
Marco's like,
I keep telling you to go up.
Wait, we're on the Titanic
and you stop to do that?
And Grant goes,
I'm sorry.
I just, I don't know.
I'm feeling so many feelings
and we're about to get married
and it's the Titanic
and I feel like I fucked up
and Marco goes,
stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
Kids, make sure you get yourself
to light boats as quick as you can.
We will be right behind you.
Thank you so much for telling us
that we are on the Titanic,
he says,
giving a distinct eye to Grant.
Uh-oh, dad's in trouble.
This is the rowdiest thing
we've ever heard about Grant
is that he was like,
I'm not a little girl person.
And I'll be like, by the way.
Now that I'm in my refractory period.
Grant probably, look, I get my dad.
He's probably so bummed out that he was like, oh, I don't deserve to take the spot of somebody else who was supposed to live.
Like, I get it.
I would feel that way maybe if I felt bad about myself.
So like, yeah, just lay off of him.
He's just feeling bad.
So you're saying your dad feels bad about himself?
Yeah.
Oh.
So he doesn't, he thinks he should die in the Titanic.
Which I guess he does or doesn't
I don't know
I don't know what
what's supposed to happen
wait you don't care
no of course I care
what do you mean
I just said I don't know
what happens
as you say
as you say of course I care
we do the
back to the future thing
where the blue screened hand
is in front of your face
and it begins to like
fade away
a little bit
uh oh
I mean um
I poke his hand
does it go through
yes
oh good
that's not good
what happened
you both definitely have to get to the lifeboats,
and we got to find, hey, we're strangers.
Francis, yes, Marco, you have to get to the lifeboat.
Marco goes, no, you're coming too.
You don't get to make this decision for me.
You're wondering why us four teens are down here,
and we're down here to make sure that couples like you don't,
we got.
Whoa, you're cool with this?
Well, populations.
Yeah, you know.
The world only works if we have wonderful couples like you two.
So we're just making sure that couples stay together when they go on the lifeboat.
So it's either both of you or none of you.
You hear me?
Yeah.
I put my stern voice on.
Think of it as like future generations depend on it, maybe.
Yeah.
Okay.
So Mr. Grant, I believe your name was, if Marco's going to go on the lifeboat, you have to too.
That's the rules.
That's what the captain said.
Roll persuasion or deception.
boat you have to too that's the rules that's what the captain said role persuasion or deception because we do have a policy here at the titanic with the fully loaded nachos
okay i got a 11 kid who are you what is your problem i told you grant he's the ambassador
of china and i'm the captain you're way too cool with queer people for this time period what's
going on uh uh we can't alter anything.
I say and I run away.
We're not cool. I want both of you off the boat.
You both make me sick.
I want you two
off the boat.
You two off the boat right now.
You hear me?
Because I'm all timey like that.
I'm just dragging Lincoln away, just trying to
desperately... Dad, I don't want you to die!
Shut the fuck up!
As you shout, Dad, I don't want you to die,
that is drowned out by the sound of
water bursting in through one of the
portals. Oh no. It begins to pool
around your feet as it rushes in from
the sides, and you see
Grant and Marco run out
of the storage area and start running
up towards the top of the boat.
Okay.
Come on, kids.
Come on.
We got to go.
We're going to go this way.
We just leave us down on our own.
I have more people to inform.
Don't worry about it.
You get to the boats.
We run up another set of stairs.
Yeah.
Or I do.
I don't know what everyone else does.
I think we want to run and look for those purple things, right?
Yeah, so as we're running, I turn to everyone and say, okay, say, we cannot trust those two himbos to figure this out on their own.
We need to collect as many of these things as we can.
They're not going to get onto a lifeboat.
We've got to get the spell figured out so Scamlike can get us all out of here.
Yeah, we've got to get out too.
They're running up there, so that's good.
That's good. Maybe we'll find something.
What was it? Something old, right?
We got something old.
Wait, whiskey check.
Okay, I checked for the whiskey.
You're fine.
I'm fine. Okay, good, good, whiskey. You're fine. I'm fine.
Okay, good, good, good, good.
Okay, that's one.
So the E deck.
We'll go to the E deck.
What else do we need?
What were the other three things?
Something new, something borrowed, something blue.
Something blue, yeah.
Okay, this is kind of random.
I don't know what that's all about, but like, okay.
We just got to run as fast as we can.
Freezing water buffets you as you run up and down the decks.
Okay.
Okay.
Which deck would you like to go to?
The saloon deck, the shelter deck, the bridge deck,
the middle deck with the swimming pool?
I think we go bottom up, right, as it's sinking.
Yeah, that's fair.
So you were on the G deck.
So we're just running.
So F deck.
Yeah, we're just running as quickly as possible.
All right, so you run up to F deck.
You see there is a swimming pool with a bunch of people
just hurrying to try to get out of the swimming pool
as the water begins to...
Ah, I get it.
You're practicing.
There's also a Turkish bass.
You see a bunch of dudes with just towels around their waist
running. You see kennels with
dogs barking locked inside their cages.
I want to open up the
kennels. Yeah, go open up the kennels. Okay, the dogs
get out. And I say, shoot. That's not
going to help. Maybe we should shoot them all in the
back of the head. Oh my god!
Oh no, this is dark thoughts! But they're
going to drown, right? Okay, well, let's
just put little life vests on them.
Oh, they're going to freeze.
I can't look at them anymore.
This is the saddest thing that's ever happened.
Go back in the kettle, little buddies.
Go to sleep.
I don't know what to do.
Let them figure it out for themselves.
Give them a shot.
Just give them a shot.
Give them a fighting chance, Link.
I want to try to make this real quick.
But really quick, as I open up the doors, I want to try and make a psychic connection with a dog.
Do you have to speak with animals?
Trust me, we're going to need this later.
Trust me, dude.
Are you going to send them all to look for purple things?
Do I have to speak with animals?
No, absolutely not.
You're a ranger without speaking with animals?
Seems like something remotely useful.
So fucking of course a ranger doesn't happen.
Hold on, let me just manage my spells and note that I have an extra spell slot. Guess what? Who has to speak with animals? I thought that was like a ranger thing. Seems like something remotely useful, so fucking of course a ranger doesn't happen. Hold on, let me just manage my spells
and note that I have an extra spell slot.
Guess what?
Who has speak with animals now?
Oh, okay, you do get it, okay.
Canines, who amongst you wishes to create
a psychic bond with me,
the son of the ambassador to China?
They all cock their heads.
All of you.
I deputize all of you to be Taylor's dogs.
Dude comes up and starts
petting them and goes, they're good dogs. These are good
dogs. They are. They are very good.
Be near so that if I need
you, you may come, but also try
and survive. Do your best. Taylor,
ask the dogs if they can find this purple stuff for us.
And keep an eye out for purple glowing.
Can they see the color purple? Dogs
are colorblind. They can see glowing. Yeah, they
can see like light. They can see glowing. Yeah, they can see light.
They can see glow, yeah.
Bring me glowing objects.
Purple, ideally.
Blue glowing objects.
Yeah.
Like this color.
Oh, hold on.
Show them the- We show the dogs the whiskey.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So somebody roll animal handling.
I will roll animal handling.
Yeah, you should do it.
My boys.
Four plus zero, four.
They jump out the window into the freezing water.
Oh, no!
Oh, God.
Oh, God, you hear what they're saying as they jump out the window, dude,
because you can speak with them now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What are they saying, Anthony?
The moon is glowing.
I'm going to get the moon.
Oh, no.
Oh, that's really awful.
Dude, one of the weird things about being a human
is that everybody's going to feel worse about these animals dying
than the 1,600 people,
human beings,
human beings that actually died.
Dude is already weeping.
Everybody listening to this
podcast is going to be more sad.
So, oh, okay.
This can't...
The dogs. I know, I know. I feel the way too. I'm not saying it's right or wrong. I'm saying I feel that way too. This can't. The dogs. I know, I know.
I feel the way too.
I'm not saying it's right or wrong.
I'm saying I feel that way too.
I feel worse about these dogs.
Link thinks for me, he's like, this can't be happening.
I know my dads live and I'm here.
So, and I start getting a divine sense and I'm going to cast divine sense, which let
me know if you think this is relevant, which is as an action, you can detect good and evil,
but also until the end of the turn, you can sense anything affected by a hollow spell,
the known location of celestial fiend undead.
It feels like I should just be able to sense within 60 feet or something.
That makes a lot of sense.
You can tell that on the e-deck above you,
something soon to be borrowed awaits you.
E-deck, let's go.
I sense something.
Okay.
I hope it's not my dad's having sex again.
That's what they were doing. Is that what they were doing?
That's what they were doing, which is cool.
I thought they just were like they wanted to see a cool car.
Yeah.
Well, they are classic car enthusiasts, though, right?
Yeah.
No, they always said that, you know, however I want to express my sexuality is fine.
And like, you can have sex before or after marriage, however you want to wait.
And they told me they had sex before marriage.
I didn't realize it was like right before marriage.
On the Titanic.
On the Titanic.
But yeah, that's definitely what they were doing.
I'm sure this was the first time
they've had sex though.
You're probably right.
Could be.
It's a pretty cool place to have sex.
So you head to the mail room
of the Titanic
and you see Grant and Marco
arguing with the mail person there
and behind the mail person,
they're basically locked
inside of a room
with a little window
with iron bars bisecting it.
And behind them is a package that seems to be glowing purple.
And Marco's like, we just need the package for some reason, I guess.
And Grant's like, yes, no, please.
That's mine.
It's for me.
It's me.
I'm what's what does it say on it?
And the guy's like, go get it.
Go back to your rooms.
Taylor struts up with all the confidence.
I do believe, sir, you have correspondence for me, the son of the
ambassador to China.
Alright, roll deception.
I swear to God, the amount of times
I've tried this fucking gamut. 4 plus 5,
9. God damn it! Oh my gosh.
No, it doesn't look
like we have anything. Scary. Hermie, guys, use your
acting stuff. You're really good at acting. Why don't the two of you
just, you know? Okay, okay.
As much as it pains me to admit it, you have great chemistry together oh hermene leans up
against the wall and goes i know yeah male room when's there gonna be a female room huh yeah yeah
let's see how that plays out for them like start snapping his fingers like he just heard something. That's right. You tell him, Gary.
Yeah. I wonder if that guy I was seeing finally sent me that object that I was going to borrow.
Oh, yes, madam.
He's always sending you objects as a way of showing how much he loves you because you're so high class and real.
I know, Jack.
I mean, I mean.
Hermie looks to the side
and he's like,
if only she knew
that me,
a lowly valet,
would actually be the one
who holds her in my heart
so deeply
that she never can
for it would be
too inappropriate for her.
Scary looks to the side.
If only he knew
I didn't really want objects.
Ah,
this looks like it might be the right place.
Hello, mail.
How do you know my name?
Could I have that package, please?
I believe it's addressed to me.
Oh, no.
Okay, so that's 10.
I'm afraid you're going to have to show me some evidence that the package is yours, my lady.
Well, let me just look at it really quick.
What's that sound also?
The boat's sinking, sir.
No, this ship's unsinkable.
Yeah, well, it turns out you can't really believe the things that you thought that you could.
You can find new things.
I try to sneak a look at the package.
Okay, go ahead and roll perception at the package. Okay.
Go ahead and roll perception.
Holy shit.
Okay.
Nine plus one. Wow, you should start a podcast.
You can really give people a wake up.
Okay, so with the 10, you can see it actually is for the son of the ambassador from China.
Oh, I find myself growing faint.
If only there was a strong family lineage to keep me afloat.
You, sir, you're an ambassador, aren't you?
I am.
Keep distracting him.
Oh.
Distract me from what?
From this.
Distract him.
Well, um.
What?
Gary, just distract him.
I have a spell I can cast.
Just cast a spell.
Cast a spell.
Dude.
Okay, so I do believe this ship may sink.
And then I pull out a bullet,
and I'm putting it on a desk,
and it's rolling down as the ship is tilting to the side.
And I'm like, yes.
And then I punch Hermie,
and I'm like, you weren't the man I thought you were.
No.
Does this performance work?
Because I'm going to cast
Misty Step,
which allows me to teleport
30 feet to an unoccupied space.
I'm just going to teleport
in there and grab it.
Great.
That works perfectly.
He's too busy being
swept up in the drama
of these two
will-they-won't-they's.
So I teleport in,
which is,
I think it's just like
I just slip on in quietly.
I grab the envelope. I'm like, hey, hey, hey. What up? Here. Take it. Yeah, okay, great, I think it's just like, I just slip on in quietly. I grab the envelope.
I'm like, hey, hey, hey, what up?
Here, take it.
Yeah, okay, great.
I slip it through the bars and I go, how did I get here?
Oh, can you only do it once?
Are you stuck in there now?
Release him at once.
That's the son of the ambassador to China.
What are you doing here, boy?
Get out, get out.
And he opens the door for you
and tries to grab the package from you.
You don't ever come along to China.
I'll have words for you.
I knew you Chinese could go through walls.
They told me that was a specific form of racism I had,
but I always knew.
Good day, sir.
I say to you, good day.
He's too busy being racist
to stop you from leaving with the package.
I look at Grant and Marco and I was like, oh, okay, so we got the package.
Why did you two, I told you guys to get out of here.
Why were you two trying to get the package?
Yeah, thanks.
This is going to be super useful.
Thanks.
Mind if I borrow it?
Sorry.
And he takes the package from you.
Yeah, you two are strong men.
You can hold on to it.
Like, that's fine.
We'll get the next two.
Thanks, kid.
What a specific thing to say.
All right.
I don't know.
You're looking for things.
We're just going to help you out.
I told you to get to the lifeboats anyway.
I told you to get to the lifeboats.
Get out of here.
You get out of here.
You two are going to have a great marriage and it's worth protecting.
So leave.
Link, stop it.
We got to destroy the timeline.
Let's go. I don't like you guys. out of there don't die dads just give me a luck
roll oh no oh no just give me like that scene in loop or when potty parts are disappearing
in 18 all right everything stays as it is
sorry i'm getting really emotional i'll stop i'll stop yelling at my dad. Shut the fuck up!
I'm talking to you! We're running away! We're away
from them now. Okay, what's next?
You head up to the top deck and you see that it is absolute pandemonium.
The ship is beginning to lilt to one
side. Chairs, cutlery,
furniture is all beginning to list in
directions. People are getting crushed underfoot. Has the
orchestra started playing yet? The orchestra is
playing Near My God today. Gentlemen, it's
just been a privilege. Why are those guys playing
music even though the boat's going down? Yeah, why are they
playing? It's just like a kind of beautiful metaphor
for the poignancy of, you know, mankind. Did it actually happen?
Yeah, that really happened. Those guys did that.
We're here. We're literally here.
What do you mean, did it actually happen? Like, pay attention.
That's a crazy story. They should make a movie out of it.
Yes, about the four musicians
who played until they got too cold.
Do they make a movie about the four of them?
Yeah, Link, they do.
They do.
They sure do, buddy.
Okay, you got your something old.
You got your something borrowed.
We're looking around for purple stuff on the deck.
Please roll a perception.
Well, you've got your little spell up, don't you?
Like your guiding.
Oh, yeah, don't you have your guiding principles?
Oh, is it still active?
It is.
Okay, great.
Roll one on perception.
Then you follow your nose, so to speak,
and you can hear the sound of a douchey guy saying,
please, please let me aboard.
She's all I have in the world.
Oh, no.
Wait, wait, sorry.
The line is, I'm all she has in the world.
Oh, sorry, yeah.
Please, please let me aboard.
I'm all she has in the world.
And you see a man with very intense eyebrows
trying to get aboard.
Oh, my God.
I have to roll not to fall in love.
The guy who's trying to steal a baby?
Go ahead.
Yeah, the difference between being a girl
and being a woman is like being into Jack Dawson.
When you're a woman,
you realize that Billy Zane is where it's at in Titanic.
That's the craziest fucking thing I've ever heard.
My favorite thing about Billy Zane in Titanic
is his ignorance of future historical people.
Like when he's like,
who's this Freud?
One of the passengers?
Oh, wait.
Picasso.
He won't amount to a thing.
Beautiful.
I just fucking,
I love that shit so much.
Actually, it's Aster
who says this Freud.
Oh, that's right.
Is he a passenger?
Love it.
So you can see that
he's next to an empty
baby carriage
and there's a woman
who has a hand
still on the handle
of the baby carriage
who seems to have been
trampled, unfortunately.
Is she alive?
No, she is dead.
Oh, God.
And Marco and Grant come out
and they don't see what's going on.
They're looking around for something purple,
but you've seen them before they did.
What's the purple thing?
The baby that he is holding is purple.
The baby is?
The baby is purple.
Wait, is it like...
Okay.
It's glowing purple.
It's not like a Thanos baby. It's magically glowing a purple glow. It is not literally is purple wait is it like okay it's not like it's magically glowing a purple
glow it is not literally a purple baby it's like a video game was highlighted wills
oh no milkshake right ahead that's gotta be one on tiktok right like a big grimace shake
sinks the titanic that's like four months pretty out there my man. So Billy Zane is trying to get aboard the lifeboat.
What are you going to do?
I'm screaming, that man stole that baby.
That's a Chinese baby.
That's our baby.
That's our Chinese baby.
Roll persuasion.
Step aside.
Step aside.
You can tell the baby is not Chinese, first of all.
Secondly, roll persuasion.
But can they tell?
Oh, okay.
Fair enough.
There is a thing.
That people think babies are Chinese.
12 plus 1, 13.
What thing? What thing? There's a thing where it people think babies are jacking. 12 plus 1, 13. What thing?
What thing?
There's a thing where it's like every Asian baby is born with a big old blue spot.
You know about this?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Where?
On their body.
Okay.
It's just a weird Mongolian blue spot thing.
And so, you know, they say babies grow in purple.
You know, who knows?
I could use it, but it doesn't matter.
Because I rolled a 13.
Okay.
So with a 13 they go oh you
stole that baby and he goes no of course not this is my child her his his name is lewis and they go
you named that baby lewis i'm afraid you're gonna have to prove that that baby was stolen
kids because he's a grown man and your children can I do slide of hand and I want to draw a blue dot on the baby?
Okay.
So that Taylor can tell them about this fact.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Roll slide of hand.
Got a 14.
You draw a blue circle onto him and immediately Billy Zane looks down and goes oh an Asian baby I would rather drown
and he hands you the baby back and he gets back
aboard the ship and wipes his hands
dermal
melanocytosis
formerly called Mongolian blue spots as you
may know them are the hallmark
of Asian babies
such as this one who belongs
to my father,
the ambassador to China.
So Grant and Marco come up and they see that the baby's glowing
and they go,
what's going on?
Whose kid is that?
Mine.
Okay.
My dad's.
No, it's not.
My brother.
Give it to them
and then they can go on the boat.
Yes.
Sir, this baby,
the only thing it has left in the world
is these two fine gentlemen.
We're friends. One of whom fine gentlemen. We're friends.
One of whom is Asian.
We're friends.
Yeah.
And one of us is Asian.
Yeah.
So can you let them on the boat, sirs?
That's me and Matt at every coffee shop.
Hi, one of us is Asian.
We won't tell you which one.
One of us tells the truth and one of us only lies.
So he goes, fine.
Yeah, sure.
Get aboard the boat, I guess, the two of you.
And he goes, and my friends, these kids here, they're all with me.
They're all my kids, Grant says.
All of them.
Come on.
Come aboard, kids.
Wow, you do that for us, mister?
Wow.
Yeah.
Can we hop on?
Yeah.
Oh, great.
Okay.
You're all children.
Yeah, we're on.
Okay.
Wait.
Can we save any of these people before we get on? Or is it too late, guys?
You tell me.
Anthony, give me one minute on the clock to see if I can find a spell that I have that
will stop the Titanic from sinking.
Please?
Come on, normal.
All right.
Timer.
One minute.
Go.
Okay.
Guidance.
Light.
Resistance.
Sacred flame.
Spare the dying.
Spare the dying.
Oh, wow.
No, that's not going to work.
How about just like a warmth spell?
You know what I mean? Like keep people warm.
Healing, purify, food.
Can you put them all to a new plane?
That way it doesn't mess up the history because they all did
disappear, but they're all alive somewhere else.
Just like MH370. Ah, yes. The great
mystery of the Titanic. Where did those people go to?
That's right.
I guess they did find the bodies.
Shit. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. I've got it. i've got it i've got it i'm going to cast water walk okay for one hour
the spell grants the ability to move across any liquid surface up to 10 willing creatures can see
within range gain this ability for the duration which 10 normal which 10 oh my god you can still see the dogs
you can save all the dogs or all 1600 people will who do you see the 1600 people i don't
fucking yeah it's only for 10 people 10 people well we'll see how i need to see how many dogs
10 people or all the dogs i can live live with you saving ten people, Normal. That's something.
That's something.
That's something.
You know, Normal, they say this boat is cursed.
They say that aboard it, there was this Egyptian mummy princess that was like stowed away.
And that's why the Titanic sank.
Whoa.
Is that real? Maybe maybe i am going to cast
water walk it's casting time is one action and it's a third level spell slot now i have three
third level spell slots three fourth level spell slots two fifth and one sixth so i can save 90
people wow because i dump all my spell slots that'll do it i believe but you can't save
the musicians because you said they died and they make a movie about them right i just want to make
sure normal that we're sticking to that's true that would blow up the timeline i feel bad for
them i can't look at them anymore i see them playing so heroic okay well i can only do people
that i can see right so there's like what there's a throng of people in front of the boat. And the dogs. You can see the doggy battling through the water.
Slowly.
The people can pick up the dogs.
Oh, one of the dogs is getting really tired.
Oh, God.
He's going below the water, Will.
Oh, my God.
Normal is going to cast.
Here's the fucked up thing I'm thinking in my head.
Do I cast it on the biggest people, like the biggest guys,
so they can hold other people, right?
Big boy representation.
Just. All the Big boy representation. Love it.
All the beefiest boys line up.
Normal shots.
All the beefy boys to the front.
So we flash forward 100 years, and it turns out beefy boys
have now been naturally selected for us.
Everybody's just like 30 pounds beefier.
Wow.
All right.
I cast an order of beefiness
and tell people,
you can walk on water now.
Hold up the other people.
People are confused.
They're crying.
They're trying their best.
Some people are managing
to climb up into the arms
of the beefiest boys,
the guys who are probably
down in the hole,
shoveling coal and stuff.
Just like they held up the economy.
You know,
America was what it was
because of the work
of these workers
standing union strong together.
They do only have an hour, so they got rescued
within an hour, right?
Yeah.
Right?
There weren't enough beefy boys.
Not the better half.
There's a beefy boy with five shivering dogs
on him and everyone immediately falls in love with him.
Yeah, after the Titanic,
they made sure that you had to at least have 200
beefy boys on every ship.
Scary's like, don't worry, I got the rest of them.
And she touches the ship and casts remove curse and nothing happens.
And that's how you find out that the Egyptian mummy was just a myth.
It wasn't actually cursed.
The Titanic just hit an iceberg and sank.
There wasn't a mystical reason for it.
It will be several hours for the ship
arrives to save these people. That's fine. An hour
of not being in the water is going to help.
It will help. God, what a story
though. As the lifeboat
descends to the water with all of you in it,
you overhear Marco and Grant having a
conversation where
Grant's like, this poor kid.
He's got nobody. And Marco says, this poor kid, he's got nobody.
And Marco says, this poor kid, I don't, we got to keep him warm.
Stay close to me.
Let's keep him warm.
And they held it closer together to each other.
And they cuddle this kid.
Link looks at the thing.
Link roll perception.
Oh, no.
A 17.
Okay.
So with a 17, Scam likely appears as a ghost and he embraces his eyebrows and he points
at you and then he points at the baby and then he points
back at you and he points at the baby.
Is that...
I'm an Asian baby?
Link looks down and realizes there's been a blue spot
on his own butt for years that he
himself painted there.
I look at scam, that's me?
He turns to Grant and Mark and he goes,
Happy anniversary.
I saw that you were having a bad time.
And so I decided to fix your marriage.
Hooray.
And Grant's like, what?
I didn't actually mean for something all borrowed, blue, old, any of that stuff.
I just wanted you to find each other.
What?
Classic Scam.
And he goes, it sounded like you were having second thoughts.
And I wanted you to remember how important you are to each other.
Remember?
You thought you were going to die.
And the first thought was to deep dick your boyfriend.
Whoa.
I told you guys.
I said that.
See?
You didn't believe me.
But they did.
I believed that they were having second thoughts.
Okay.
Marco kisses Grant really deeply.
And Grant kisses him back.
And he goes, I'm sorry I was so scared.
I was just really scared of living a life with you as much as I was without you, because I don't know if I can, I just don't know.
And Marco just shuts him up and goes, it's fine. It's okay. We're going to be okay together
because you've got my back and I've got your back. And now both of us are going to have this.
If you're okay with it, I think we're going to have this kid's back.
And the four of us are always going to have your back too.
Hey, can you two
keep it down?
Oh god.
Drake gets a distant
look in his eyes
as he sees
other than the people
trying to crawl
onto the burly boys
a lot of people
drowning and dying
in the water.
Molly Brown would be
so pissed if this
many people actually
survived the Titanic.
Yeah she loses her
whole wrist.
They'd be all
writing books too.
Yeah they would literally be unsinkable. Yeah. Yeah she she loses her whole risk. Because they'd be all writing books, too. Yeah, and they would literally be unsinkable.
Yeah.
Yeah, she's just okay Molly Brown.
Grant says, with Scam Likely and the doodler and all these people dying around me, and
I just want to make sure that he doesn't have to deal with any of this shit.
I just know Kid deserves to live through the bullshit that we're living.
I'm sure he'll be fine.
Yeah.
Oh, I can't say anything, right?
You can, but maybe just like
just don't fucking just be cool for once you know about it you could say something cool to him just
don't tell me you're his son you know but if you got something to say to him you know say it dude
oh hey you two gentlemen i'm sure i'm sure that baby's gonna be really happy to have you as as
their dad i'm gonna hey guys let's just uh let's just close our eyes and ears because there's
a lot of dying going on around us i'm just a little scared yeah like kind of like tries to
look away from just one more i mean do you have anything you want to say to like your baby self
no no dude that's the first lesson of all this like don't do anything what do you mean okay i'm
pretty happy with the way i don't mind i'm pretty happy with no don't tell me anything okay yes i
go to the baby and I whisper to the baby.
I say, hey, baby Link.
And I stroke his cheek and I say, it's going to be all right.
And then Grant and Marco both embrace you and they hold you as the Titanic sinks behind you.
As more than 1,500 people die in the single deadliest sinking of a single ship up to that time happens around us.
But that's love, right?
Yeah.
And the 700 people in the boats wait to die, wait to live, wait for an absolution that will never come. Days whisked away, but is there something more to say? You know that no one knows us better than ourselves.
Used to tell myself it'll be all right.
Pretty lies that we sleep at night.
I know that no one knows me better than myself.
And I know I'll get this
right, it's just a matter
of time till we make it
out alive

ourselves up and say
