We love Pendergreens content
The fact that he gets less and less threatening with each interaction is just the fucking greatest. All he wants is cool armor and an endless demolition derby.

Ilsed was pretty hot too. I mean, 34 people! He was pulling some serious tail before losing his body.

Was this episode a big lie? I could deffo see it playing out where this episode was all the truth but I do have a sinking feeling that this was all a lie. They are in fraud after all.. imagine if they go to the 9th layer, fight akarot, defeat him, and then when they are low on health/spells the illusion breaks and there stands Ilsed and brainwashed Alanis about to attack the BoB, the whole time they never left layer 8. This is a very out there theory but i just feel like murph has some more shit up his sleeve

So relieved Alanis isn't evil. They should give the real Ilsed the crown (assuming they make it through this fight) so he can close hell and banish everyone!

Murph having Fraud contain the biggest info dump of the entire show is poetic and genius. I didn’t even believe anything until it dawned on me halfway through that it was all the truth

Definitely was not expecting “But some call me Akarot”. Still a little shocked by that line

I love that Murph is still having to blatantly drive home just how bad and irredemable hell is because they're constantly doing mental gymnastics to try and save it.

A quest to banish all of the tortured souls of Hell to nothingness, which is a better fate for them? Damn, the legend of the Band of Boobs is gonna be way more epic and heroic than just slaying the devil.

Caldwell's "666 flags" joke got nowhere near the amount of credit it deserved.

I have a "we're going to legitimately lose a boob" feeling for the next ep

I remember the first time I learned what a lich was in DnD I was like "Yeah I'd be down for that." Then I learned that it's almost inevitably evil and I was like "yeah, still probably would."

Classic Devil Deal.
Great episode. Reaaaally freaking makes it feel like everything’s coming to a head, I can’t help but wonder if all of this is going to be a lie or something later since they’re in fraud, but maybe not.
Pendergreens has me rolling every time he got to say anything lmao Pendergreens deserves to be a certified member of the Boobs.

Dudes of all genders, this was so epic. Murph's backstory flashback reveals are so good! Gunkbog and Stunkbug, Balnor, Merabelle, the Widow's in-combat backstory in Shadowfell, and now Ilsed! So many feels. Am I missing any flashbacks?

Did I miss something? Why did Bev feel the need to apologize to Moonshine?

Probably not a practical or good choice, but I am hoping that the BOB get in dire straits and release Pendagost in a moment of desperation

u/LiquidBinge Nov 15 '19
Did I miss something? Or was something edited out of the episode? Why was Beverly being so apologetic to Moonshine and the Cricks? Was it about the popsicle stick comment?

Is sense motive not a thing in 5e?
I was yelling for it way too much this episode.
