(00:00):
July 22, Anno Domini 1587, the Hopewell anchored off Roanoke Island.
A new beginning dawns upon this land.
After a long voyage, we have finally set foot on Roanoke Island, a company of souls eager
(00:20):
to build a life and establish a true English settlement.
Families, tradesmen, and hopeful hearts have arrived ready to cultivate the soil and forge
a future.
The remnants of the previous attempt are visible, yet we see not despair but opportunity.
We shall learn from their endeavors and build anew, stronger, and with greater resolve.
(00:42):
May this venture prove more fruitful and enduring than last.
The work begins with the morning light.
John White, Governor.
(01:15):
Alright, where we last left off, you guys had just arrived, hoping to find the shed where
the generator to the camp is kept.
And sure enough, you found that generator shed.
And you found the generator inside had been completely disconnected to the cable that
powers and runs through the entirety of the camp.
(01:35):
Who disconnected it?
That's what you wondered to yourself before you heard a low, mournful moan, turning and
found yourselves face to face with none other than Bigfoot itself.
Himself, himself, herself?
Hard to say.
Little scientific research exists about any legitimacy with Bigfoot.
(01:59):
And in response to that fact, Brayden says, "Guys, is that what I think it is?"
And Justin responds, "Yeah.
That's Bigfoot."
And Brayden says, "Hold on, hold on.
(02:20):
I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but just clarify with you guys.
Bigfoot's like a legend, right?
I thought he was a legend, not real."
Didn't you hear my campfire story, bro?
See I also thought that was a legend.
He is a legend.
Oh, like a legendary.
Oh, okay, I get it now.
Okay, but he's real.
(02:41):
Like, you know, like he exists.
He's real.
He's got like one of those Latin names and stuff like that.
Yes.
Okay.
Bigfoot is my corness.
Oh, okay.
Bigfoot is my...
Okay, so he looks upset.
I can hit him with my baseball bat.
Is that what we're doing?
(03:01):
I feel like I'd be abusing him.
So what do you want to just like plug that generator in?
Maybe we just like hope this isn't a problem.
He's not approaching us.
And just as he says that, of course, Bigfoot takes one big-footed step towards you guys
and he growls.
Okay, see now that's...
I don't know about you guys, but that sounds like aggressive behavior.
(03:24):
You're...
Soapy, Soapy Joe, you're the expert on Bigfoot, right?
Like what are we looking at here?
I think we're in trouble is what I think.
Okay.
Soapy Joe is recording the whole thing on his camera as this conversation is going on.
He's kind of panning back.
I was going to say, is he panning back but trying to braid in and sweep braiding and
Bigfoot kind of going back and forth.
(03:45):
Okay.
What about the rest of you guys?
What is everybody else doing?
I think Justin is like peeing himself practically right now.
He's backing away.
He's definitely hidden behind all of you at the moment.
Grieve is going to take more of a stunned appreciation of the events like crikey.
This is not one, but two new species.
(04:08):
That is just incredible.
Wait, what's the second species?
Well, that weird bear thing.
Well, that's a new species.
I thought that was just like some weird bear thing.
I forget what it is called.
It's called the scrungus.
The scrungus.
Scrungus bear.
So like that's not in like science books and stuff.
(04:30):
I've never heard an animal planet documentary cover the scrungus.
Oh man.
Okay.
Steve Irwin or Jeff Corwin or at least one of those guys would have covered it.
So I feel like if there's not been a documentary on it, it's got to be a new species.
Wow.
So this new species, both of these new species have been really aggressive.
(04:53):
Does anyone want to go plug in the generator?
Because this thing is getting closer and I'm going to have to start swinging here soon.
Yo history man, go plug it in.
Oh, okay.
Does anyone have any cans of alphabet soup?
Why would we need that?
I heard Bigfoot's are rather fond of the stuff.
(05:14):
No we do not have.
Well, I'm rather fond of it and quite peckish.
I saw some spaghetti-os in the kitchen pantry.
It's kind of a mono alphabet soup.
All right guys, I'm taking a swing and Brandon walks over and he takes a swing at Bigfoot
and the two start battling it out.
What are you guys doing?
(05:36):
Spaghetti-os aren't exactly what I'm going for right now.
I'm body peckish for letters if you don't mind.
All right, so be Joe, just go and plug it in.
Okay, so you go and you reach down to start picking up the cable and as you do, you see
Bigfoot glances over at you and he starts to like, he gets down on all fours and he starts coming at you like he's completely ignored and bypassed around Brayden and he starts to rush towards you.
(06:03):
He still plugs it in.
Okay, so you just continue to plug it in.
I'm going to have you do an act under pressure.
Is that what's cool?
Yes.
Nine?
Oh sorry, eight.
Do you want to do an additional action or do a simultaneous action while this is taking
place?
Um, potentially what are you thinking of doing?
(06:25):
Because I'm pretty sure I have a big jar of pepper.
Okay, I'm going to make it.
Here's what I'll say.
Usually if you're like doing something that would at the same time as another hunter or
something of that effect, it would kind of be, it would all of them give him advantage.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So this will be a help out.
Okay.
So if you're like, wow, as, as Bigfoot's rushing towards Sobie Joe, you pull out this
(06:47):
thing of pepper.
I'm going to have you do a help out, which you also roll cool for.
And if you're successful, that's going to turn his eight into a nine, which is a soft
success.
That's how he rolled a nine.
Well, I rolled it.
I rolled a nine, but my minus one on cool brought it down to an eight.
Which is so weird.
Yeah.
You're like a big streamer.
But I guess, I don't know.
I mean, I thought cool isn't like hip, so I didn't really.
(07:10):
Fair enough.
I think I may have thrown the pepper in your face.
That was a six.
Well, thankfully, when you try to help out, it's kind of just like an all or nothing.
You either succeed or you fail.
You take out your pepper and you go to throw it at Bigfoot.
Um, you, I like the idea that you, you pop open one of the little, so it's like a two
sided opening, right?
(07:31):
So that you can do one side is like a lot more versus a little spring.
Exactly.
Exactly.
And you pop out the sprinkle side and you just like thrust forward and just this tiny
little puff of pepper just comes spouting out from your container and it rushes past
you ignoring it entirely.
So be Joe, you only managed to get an eight, which is still a soft success.
(07:54):
I guess I don't know why I was, was thinking it'd be anything more.
Here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to say that you have a hard choice.
You can plug this in right now, but Bigfoot's going to slam into you.
I was wanting to use protect somewhere.
Okay.
When I saw this thing charging at him.
I was just kind of waiting to an opportunity to say something.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
(08:15):
That's fine.
Well, affect your choice here.
Okay.
So, uh, you're going to roll your, yeah, he's going to yell, um, watch out.
Soaps Joe.
Soap.
And he pulls out his, he used the full name pulls out that wire, a hit iron and he goes
to smack this thing when he throw his house.
Okay.
Perfect.
I was actually hoping for a failure.
I failed.
Okay.
So he goes, oh, watch out.
(08:36):
Soaps Joe.
Soap.
And it, whoop, whoop, whoop.
Yeah.
That's exactly what I was going to say.
So yes.
He swims wildly and I think he smacks, uh, grieve in like the side of the, well, you,
yeah, you don't hit grieve, but, but grieve's puff of pepper is what causes you to sneeze
(08:56):
and get distracted.
He has to back off as he starts wildly flailing his golf club in that.
So with everybody having made some attempt to either help or protect, um, I'm going
to turn back over to soapy Joe.
All right.
So this is your hard choice.
You can plug it in right now and be done with that element or you can get out of the
(09:17):
way and avoid taking any harm.
I will plug it in.
You're plugging it in.
All right.
You plug it.
Okay.
You've got, oh, well that's probably why is, is you're holding the cable in one hand.
The hero.
There you go.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
No man doesn't die.
Caravan can't die.
It's a really interesting footage of you selfie style with the camera.
(09:38):
You've got the plug in your hand.
What are you saying to the camera?
You know, we're plugging this thing.
I can't, I don't know what it's for.
And by the way, this, this episode of memories grinds up a quantum beat.
You get slammed by bigfoot for too harm and you get knocked back to the edge or the back
wall of this little shed, um, hitting the side of it, landing on the ground, possibly
(10:02):
having maybe some broken ribs or something at this point.
You just got slammed and you see bigfoot.
He looks furious and he looks down at the generator and he starts grabbing at the cable.
Now he's not grabbing it where you're supposed to.
You know, he's breaking the rules of using electricity, which is he's grabbing the cable,
maybe like two feet away from where the plug is and he's trying to pull it out.
(10:26):
But of course he's like angled ever so slightly.
He's pulling against it.
He might break it before he even pulls the plug out.
What are you guys doing?
I'm writhing and pain.
Yeah, you're writhing and pain.
That's totally fair.
What about?
Yeah, I was going to say.
Not going to lie, I was kind of half open, but he was going to swing and it was going
to be like Tom and Jerry where it just, you hit some on the top.
(10:47):
It's just the perfect outliner rule.
Yeah.
I suppose Grieve is probably at this point going to be loading his net launcher.
Okay.
Because he again is usually more for the realm of capture rather than kill.
Sure.
Totally fair.
So you've dropped your pepper, your Costco sized pepper and you start pulling on the
(11:09):
reload for your net gun.
You currently have two nets.
You take it, you point it over at Bigfoot who's pulling and pulling and pulling and
you fire your shot, do a kick some ass so you're rolling with tough.
Oh no.
That is a four.
That is a four.
That is a failure.
You go to fire your net gun.
(11:30):
You blast the net comes flying out of this device and just as it does, Braden comes running
up with his baseball bat covered in nails poking out the perfect weapon that could have possibly
bludgeoned and gored Bigfoot to death, but instead he is knocked down and tackled onto
(11:52):
the ground by this net coming out of your gun.
Well shucks.
And now you have one net left in your net gun.
Martin Fresh, you are recovering, you're wiping your nose, recovering from your sneezing fit
and you see the scene before you.
What are you doing?
Oh, hey, that's not yours.
And he runs over to where the Bigfoot is pulling the cord and he grabs right in front of its
(12:16):
hands and he's proceeding to pull the opposite direction of the Bigfoot.
He's pulling it and he's trying to pull it and he tries to funk him on the head.
Yeah, yeah, his hand and his fist and tries to pull it away from him.
You're mostly trying to get the cable out of his hands, right?
You're not really trying to do damage per se.
(12:38):
He's just pulling the opposite of the Bigfoot.
I'm just saying when you said you bonked his head, but you're not.
He's trying to get it looked up.
Okay.
He would not do damage in the slightest.
I'm going to call this act under pressure then, which if there's one thing that we've
learned in the past from playing the monster of the week, it's that act under pressure
often gets overused, but that's just because it's kind of for that purpose.
(12:59):
A nine.
Okay.
Here's what I'm going to say.
If you pull this out of Bigfoot's hands, obviously he's going to be upset and he's going
to take a swing at you, but the cable, you've essentially distracted him from the cable and
given everybody else enough time to recover, but you're going to take some damage.
(13:20):
Otherwise, you can let go of the cable and let him have it and you won't take any damage.
That's the decision you have in this moment.
Martin's never lost that tug-of-war and he doesn't intend on losing now.
So you yank as hard as you can and the cable slips right out of Bigfoot's hands and he
(13:40):
has dropped it completely.
He looks at you and he glares and he lets out a low growl as he lunges forward with
his massive fists, almost equal size to his giant feet and slams a punch right into you.
You take too harm.
Take that, Uncle Chest!
(14:02):
But even as you kind of crumple to a sitting position next to the generator, you're still
holding the cable in your hands.
So you have certainly won this game of tug-of-war.
Justin in the back is, he's staying in the back.
He is absolutely terrified.
With that being said, I'm going to say, "Sopi Joe, you managed to pick yourself up off the
(14:23):
ground at this point.
You've got your camera back in hand.
What are you doing?"
He's just laying on the ground and filming this whole thing.
He is not interested in getting back into the farm.
Right now he's just kind of assessing his body, seeing like, "Is there anything that's
not broken?"
Okay, fair enough.
Okay, so we'll jump over to Grieve.
(14:45):
Grieve, you still have your net gun in hand if you want to try to make use of it again.
You've got one net left or you could do something else if you have another idea.
At this point, he's kind of given up on the net gun.
So he's kind of assessing his surroundings.
Is there any makeshift projectiles or weapons or can of beans?
(15:06):
Yes, exactly.
Sure.
Given where you're at, well, let me ask you this.
How willing are you to hurt Bigfoot?
Because you could theoretically pick up the baseball bat that Brayden dropped because
he's now trapped in his net.
You could theoretically help Brayden out of the net and then Brayden can do what he
does.
Yeah, I think he is more of the compassionate type who after seeing his failure with the
(15:32):
net gun he would probably be more prone to immediately resolve that issue and untangle
Brayden.
Okay, so you're going to go and rush over to the net and pull out his little, "Well,
is there a chance that I can salvage said net?"
Yeah, I would say so.
He's going to try to do that.
Okay, sounds good.
(15:52):
Let's call this a "technically protect somebody."
Normally I would say help out, but it technically says to help out another...
Well, I guess he is another hunter.
I will give you the option.
Do you want to use it as protect somebody, which will go off your tough or help out,
which will go off your cool?
Arguably, he is another hunter currently, even though he's an NPC.
(16:13):
It's the same plus for either of those.
Okay.
Go help out.
Okay.
Actually, help out probably has fewer ramifications if you fail, actually.
So yeah, that's probably the best bet.
An eight.
An eight?
Okay.
You go to help him out, but in doing so, you have obviously set yourself up as the only
standing individual for Bigfoot to potentially target at the moment.
(16:37):
And of course, he does.
He sees you helping Brayden.
He sees Brayden's giant bat with spikes and stuff that he was swinging at Bigfoot just
moments ago.
And Bigfoot decides, "I got to stop this guy."
Or rather in Bigfoot's beak.
So he starts to move towards you.
He's not attacking just yet, but he is focused on you as you look over and you see him coming
(17:00):
towards you as you hurriedly trying to get Brayden out of the net.
You are making a significant amount of progress and you haven't torn the net at all.
Is anybody else interested in doing anything at the moment?
Is, for the most part, is the Bigfoot leaving Soapy Joe alone?
Yeah.
Okay.
He wants to use Will Fix It in Post.
(17:21):
Okay.
You can use anything you can conceivably have recorded as evidence for investigative mystery,
allowing you to check previous interviews, attack sites, and so on.
So I'd like to have him pull up on his little camcorder, like previous clips of this Bigfoot
attack to see if he can find, like, any way that there is a pattern, a pattern, like a
(17:41):
dark souls villain.
Like, is there an opening?
Is there a weakness?
Okay.
Anything in that nature?
Okay.
Sounds good.
Yeah.
I would say, so you're doing investigative mystery.
So you're all with Sharp?
With Sharp.
And then basically on your result, you can ask me questions.
10.
10?
(18:02):
Wow.
Okay.
So you get to hold two, which means you get to ask two questions.
Any questions or is there a set list?
There's technically a set list, but I like to make sure to emphasize to people that you
can kind of manipulate what those questions look like based on the current situation.
So the current questions available are what happened here?
What sort of creature is this?
What can it do?
What can hurt it?
(18:23):
Where did it go?
What was it going to do?
And what is being concealed here?
I will ask what can hurt it?
What can hurt it?
Okay.
So because of your history with Bigfoot, you immediately know, I'm going back to that
footage of when you were actually out there searching for Bigfoot with your friends long
before you came to the summer camp and the experience that you had there.
(18:46):
And you notice as you're flipping, like kind of fast forwarding through this footage on
your camcorder that you've never deleted because obviously that it was the most terrifying
experience of your life.
There's a moment where you see one of the people that was in your group brought a old
camera.
And when things were kind of going a little bit crazy, you remember there was a moment
(19:08):
where she tried to take a picture of it and the flash on this old camera actually broke
and popped.
And there was a little bit of like sort of a fiery explosion that came out and there
was the Bigfoot that you guys originally saw was like on top of you guys.
And you watched as it kind of hesitated and backed up when this happened.
And that sparks a possible idea of what might keep you safe, might be a weakness to this
(19:33):
Bigfoot.
Okay.
Okay.
And then you do have one other question.
I think you can technically save it too.
Can I pocket that?
Yeah.
I'm going to say you can pocket that and pull that out a little bit later.
Theoretically still retaining around Bigfoot in this situation.
Right.
Right.
He'll just kind of yell out, "Fire!
He doesn't like fire!"
(19:53):
I'm going to say if you just stop at fire, that's going to, that's kind of broad.
Fire!
Throw or shoot something at him.
Okay.
So you shout out fire to the rest of the group.
I'm going to, do you have anything?
Do I see anything with a giant cartoon fire symbol on that?
They're the cans.
They're the two Jerry cans that you brought that have gas in them.
(20:16):
My gasoline.
Yup.
Whoa!
I know how to eat this.
There wasn't that to start the generator?
Yeah.
Braden was worried that the gas was out.
We thought the gas was out, but it's just unplugged.
Right.
Oh, one would likely hell of self start a good old fashioned bonfire and he grabs one
of the cans and he goes running over and he just starts trying to like splash it on the
(20:40):
big foot.
On big foot?
Yeah.
Okay.
He's just splashing it.
That is definitely an act under pressure for sure.
That is a three.
Three big yikes.
You rush over to start pouring gasoline on big foot and he, you've got like a poor grip
on this, this Jerry can and maybe part of it's just because your hands are sore from
(21:04):
playing tug of war with the cable.
But big foot snatches it out of your hand, turns around and starts to pour it on you.
Oh, that might be a beautiful source.
And you all start to smell a very heavy scent of gasoline or as the British call it, petrol.
Oh, good thing I brought a second can.
It's a lame fight.
(21:29):
Just like crap my balls.
Is this a college did you go to?
Is this a old low fat mocha frappuccino?
See, almost, but what is it?
What is it?
I know I can't think of the title.
Zoolander.
Blue C's.
Yeah, Zoolander.
It's literally that beginning scene from Zoolander's low fat mocha frappuccino.
Okay, so you're currently distracted having a gasoline fight.
(22:08):
So yeah, you and Bigfoot are having a gasoline fight.
I will say that his strength is giving him a bit of an advantage.
These are big metal Jerry cans.
Martin's getting covered.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, he's getting like spritzed.
Yeah, he's getting a nice little spritz.
He's getting like, he's getting like baby baptized at a Catholic church.
(22:29):
Like like cologne.
Yeah.
Um, Grieve, you managed to get Brayden out of, thanks to the distraction, you're able
to get Brayden out from inside the net.
What are you doing after your friend has shouted fire?
And then you watch as your other friend or I don't know acquaintance, whatever you guys,
you refer to these guys too, as he starts to have a gasoline fight with Bigfoot.
(22:53):
I so glad I introduced a monster with posable thumbs.
Yeah, I do like that.
He's just bashing me.
He's warming it on.
That's a beauty of Bigfoot.
It's like he has some level of intelligence.
I think Grieve is going to see the scene unfold and hear the fire.
Initially, I don't see any fire, but then put two and do the other.
(23:14):
There's a gigantic thing of gasoline that could turn into a catastrophe at any second.
So he's probably just going to whisper some to just Justin.
Mm hmm.
Can they help open that?
Yeah, Justin.
Like, I think you got to get Martin out of there.
But he's all covered in gas and somebody wants to start a fire.
Should we double team them?
(23:34):
Okay.
Uh, which side do you want?
I'll get right.
You get left.
I think I decided, I think, uh, yeah.
So Grieve is at this point is just going to kind of, uh, try to do the whole dance
alone distress thing from a moving train where he's kind of just going to try tackle Martin
away from the grip of Bigfoot.
Okay.
So, here's what I'm going to say is that, um, by integrating Justin into this situation,
(23:59):
and I want you guys to abuse this, but Justin makes a distraction for Bigfoot, giving you
a plus one forward, basically giving you a help out, right?
To to tackle Martin fresh out of this situation.
So give me a, I really feel like this is a protect somebody.
So you get a plus one to, to your tough.
(24:21):
So is that in addition to my usual plus?
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So plus two.
Yeah.
Plus two total.
Wow.
Right on.
Uh, that would be an 11.
An 11.
Holy cow.
Okay.
So I'm going to pull, uh, Martin fresh out of this gasoline fight.
And in the process, you get to suffer, suffer less harm, which could happen.
(24:45):
Um, you all impeding danger is now focused on you.
You inflict harm on the enemy or you hold the enemy back.
Do you have a preference on that?
Now what I will say is that you do have the net in your hand that you just pulled Braden
out of.
Yes.
Like, yeah, pairing that with my, uh, tendency to have a death wish.
Well, at the same time, avoid any direct harm to said creature.
(25:09):
I think I will probably go about and try to restrain him with my handheld net.
I like it.
Okay.
So you rush over with just in creating a distraction, swinging his golf clubs back and forth, causing
big foot to kind of glance over in his direction instead of Martin freshes.
And in that moment, you're able to push Martin fresh out of the way and throw a portion of
(25:32):
the net over big foot, capturing him and then holding that net, uh, still yourself.
So you've got big foot restrained at the moment.
Um, Braden is reaching into his pocket and he pulls out a Zippo lighter.
I don't know.
And he says, all right, just, just say the word.
(25:53):
I'll throw it on him.
Hold, hold him still.
Hold him still.
This is what we're doing.
I don't know much about this.
This feels wrong.
I don't know, but I'll do it.
I'll do it if this is the way we're going.
Martin, get out there and then sell this rod.
Well here, you're already pushed out of the way, technically speaking.
Well, he pushed you out of the way.
He's still up.
He's holding the net right now.
Yeah.
(26:14):
Yeah.
Keeping big foot, but whatever the case, you're out of the way enough and, uh, Braden
tosses the, the Zippo lighter into the air.
You watch it in slow motion as it spins and then it hits the net and big foot trapped
inside catching fuel of one of the, of a little bit of the spritz of gasoline on big
(26:34):
foot and it quickly takes to the fur, that thin fur on big foot until the entire net
practically is just in flames as big foot from inside is screaming horribly, flailing
his arms and legs about, uh, come almost completely coated in flames at this moment,
giving you guys an opportunity to potentially escape or whatever it is that you guys want
(26:58):
to do.
Well, at the very least, soapy Joe is going to peel himself off of the ground because
there's now an active fire in the building.
So, and an active creature on fire and the military put in creature.
Yeah.
So, uh, so yeah, he's going to, he's going to deal.
He's going to get up out of there.
I mean, you've plugged it in.
The plug is in.
Um, you look off into the distance and you can see the lights are now back on back at
(27:20):
the, uh, campsite.
So you have technically accomplished your mission.
If you guys remember, uh, Braden wanted you guys to get the electricity back on because
the supply shed has an electric lock and there's a whole bunch of cool stuff in there,
but he wouldn't have access to it without the electricity.
So you have the electricity now.
Are you staying here for any reason or are you all booking it?
Uh, no, I think if it was booming the premises, but I'm going to stand because I still have
(27:44):
my other questions.
So I'm going to do one more investigation, but that's after I leave the building.
Okay.
So you're out of the shed.
Yes.
I mean, you're still in the area.
Do you want to ask it then?
Yeah.
Okay.
Um, I will ask where did it go?
This big foot, where does it go?
Is it after you guys run out?
After we run out.
(28:04):
Okay.
That's a good question.
Um, you see it rush back deeper into the woods, uh, flailing, rolling, uh, awkwardly, especially
rolling because it's also still tangled up in this net.
It hasn't fully like just disintegrated from the flames yet.
And so yeah, he's like tripping over himself.
He's rolling.
Thankfully, uh, you guys are on an island.
There's a lot of sea water within the breeze and things like that.
(28:26):
So he's not igniting the forest as he goes.
Thankfully, uh, it's still pretty green here.
There might be a couple of little spots that drip off of him as far as flames go, but he's
not starting the forest on fire, which is good.
Um, but you slowly see him disappear.
Even his flaming essence disappear amongst the trees and brush.
Well, soapy Joe is going to hobble himself to the infirmary.
(28:48):
Okay.
Sounds good.
So you're going to hobble over to the, what did I call it?
The recovery cabin.
Um, you guys are all following him, I'm guessing.
No, no.
Martin, the dead sprinted out of that cabin, uh, when he saw the fire in Braden's hand,
uh, because there was a trail of gasoline from.
(29:09):
Oh, big foot to him.
It's like following you.
Yeah.
He's running.
Oh, no.
Run away.
And the frail fire just following him.
He's dead.
It's funny.
So the fall, cause you're still, you're still dripping to.
So the beast, he is a trail of fire is going, run, run, run, oh God, yeah.
(29:31):
And he runs and he jumps at the fire.
Is it the water to the giant splash.
And then comically the whole top, all the gas rises.
Oh, sure.
The top of the pool starts on fire.
And then he's like, oh no.
He's like splashing in the water.
He's trying to splash it away from him.
The other side of the pool.
(29:52):
He's like trying to back up.
Yup.
Yup.
Backstroke away from this flaming gasoline that's coming right off on full.
Yeah.
And then we see a soapy Jogo recovery run.
Yeah.
And then you're over there.
And then you're in the back.
You're just here.
Oh no.
Oh no.
Oh no.
Oh no.
(30:12):
Oh no.
Oh no.
Awesome.
Great.
What are you doing?
It's probably going towards like the towel section.
Just grab a towel.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
I think Justin and Braden help you with that.
They both grab towels and they're just like they dip it into the pool and then they're
just whacking the ground and anything that's on fire.
They're just trying to whack it.
But they also look a little confused and awkward because they're like, but the guy is in the
(30:34):
pool and he's like on fire almost.
Like I don't know.
But eventually I think that the flames subside and the gas enough the gasoline comes off
of you and mixes with water or whatever that it causes it to inevitably end.
And you got you pull yourself out of the pool just as soaked as you were before but
now with water instead of gasoline.
(30:55):
And all the rest of you are just standing there holding slightly singed towels.
Well, it wouldn't be as cold considering all the fire.
My word man.
It's chilly.
Hey, where did the guy with the camera go?
Well, I think I spotted him going to the room of recovery while I was making a desperate
(31:22):
plea for survival.
I think I saw him there too and from the looks of you, I think we better get you there as
well.
Before I catch the hyperbomber.
The hyperbomber.
Awesome.
So you guys all head over to the recovery cabin inside.
I mean, it's set up like sort of like a nurse's office at a school, right?
There's some beds.
(31:42):
There's like a couple of beds in there for recovery.
There's definitely some various bandages and things along those lines.
Maybe some rubbing alcohol, obviously for cuts and bruises or for cuts mostly.
Whatever the case, you're able to find a handful of various medical supplies, simple medical
supplies and you all, I guess, bandage up a bit.
(32:05):
I'm guessing those who need it.
I would say that at max, there's enough to heal up to two wounds each.
Mostly based off of how wounds work, right?
Not so much like, yeah, you could sit there and you could band aid your whole self up
and look like a mummy at the end, but that's not going to make you actually better to two
at most.
That's what works.
(32:26):
I know, I know, I'm sorry.
That little bandage and those gunshot wounds, they're gone, they're gone.
Banged around your end of my body.
I don't know if I just stand with my hand hovering above them for 10 seconds.
They'll pop right back up.
Max help, yeah.
Unfortunately, that's not how things work here, but like I said, you guys do heal up
at least a little bit.
And with that being said, Braden also finishes bandaging off a couple of cuts that he got
(32:51):
mostly from the net gun.
And he says, okay guys, now we're all good to go.
Should we head over and get some supplies over at the supply shack?
Should be open.
I've got the code.
You just need the electricity.
So it should be good.
What happened to the two girls that?
Oh, I haven't seen them since the campfire.
Did you see them come to the, I came straight to the supply shack.
(33:12):
So I don't think they ever were in the supply shack.
I'm trying to think back to the last episode.
Yeah, no, they just, I mean, everybody ran in separate directions.
You don't know where the girls have been.
Yeah, that's right.
All right.
You guys head over to the supply shack and sure enough, you get inside and the door is,
he punches in the coat and you hear the lock twink open up and the door swings open.
(33:34):
It's kind of one of those like gate doors and you have access to some of the not just
like available for anyone to grab supplies from the supply shack.
Is there anything in particular that you guys are interested in getting your hands on?
More ammunition for like more ammunition for your gun may have just a second gun.
(33:57):
Here's what I'll tell you is inside.
You don't see ammunition for your gun necessarily, but you do see some BB guns, BB guns, you
said.
Yes.
Are there any games or supplies for ladder golf?
(34:18):
Oh, yes.
You want some bolas?
Yes.
Nice.
When you find a couple makeshift bolas.
Man, that fits your character so well.
How about this for like an axe throw?
There are axes.
Yes.
Specifically throwing axes.
He'll grab a couple of those.
Okay.
I'd mark this stuff down as far as quantity.
How many did he say to throwing?
(34:39):
How many is probably more?
I'm going to set a bolas.
You get six for each three games.
Sorry.
Yeah.
For each size.
So six total.
So you got six games over there.
Oh, maybe he found.
Here's what I'll say.
Here's the names.
12 bowls because it does zero.
I will give you that, but also keep in mind there's how much you can carry.
(35:00):
So I was going to say six makes sense.
I personally have like literally strapped six bolas from a game of ladder golf to some
element of my person in the past because I thought it was cool.
And I felt cool at the moment.
So I mean, there's that.
You do also find nets for fishing.
(35:21):
I would say you could refill your net gun if you would like.
And the beauty of it too is that your net gun so far is suck.
So I don't feel bad or awkward or like I'm losing out as the, the, maybe instead of the
keeper, can I request that I just grab a couple fishing poles or there are gene pole.
They're definitely fishing poles, gnarly, um, louers on them.
(35:45):
Like these are the lures that you see that they've got some huge hooks on that.
Since you guys are bored, like you're on an island and the ocean is right there.
I will say absolutely.
Now does this camp, I see that they have cabins, but do they have tents?
They do in here.
So we want to grab a tent.
I'm thinking tent spikes.
Oh, okay.
Sure.
(36:05):
Sure.
Yeah.
You open up a tent pack and you pull the spikes out of it and let's say you got four, four
10 spikes, four 10 spikes.
A hammer per hand.
Sure.
Absolutely all you can carry.
Okay.
That, that seems fair.
Four 10 spikes and one hammer.
And then you turn around and you see Grieve and he is just like decked out in very obscure
(36:26):
gear when it comes to the idea of fighting monsters.
But you know that thing's trying to kill us, right?
What are you going to do with a fishing rod?
Have you seen the hook on this thing that could take out an eyeball?
Not that I would like to do that, but if there's a giant eyeball on this, I think he's ready
for it.
I think he feels compelled to harm said eyeball.
That's right.
(36:46):
Martin Fresh, what are you grabbing?
Are there any giant thermal blankets?
Sure.
All right.
I'd say there's two.
Okay.
Grieve is one.
Okay.
And he goes, oh, yeah.
Perfect.
Just what I need.
And he grabs it, he wraps it around and so.
Oh, like what?
Feel what?
Yeah, yeah.
(37:06):
Oh, what's this hidden behind the thermal blankets?
And he reaches back and he pulls up.
Oh my word.
A classic katana of an ancient.
All right.
Now, all right.
Now you're pushing it.
Master, you're love showing.
Certainly not a katana.
You pull out what you.
This old ray gun.
(37:28):
Oh, well, it would be loaded in functional flint.
You pull out what you think is a ray gun and it's just like a mulch spreader.
And you pull out what you think is a katana and it's just.
Well, Katana, a garden hoe, he reaches back and he pulls out.
Oh, what's this?
Well, he wasn't this over here and he pulls out a weed whacker.
(37:49):
Oh, okay.
Weed whacker.
Okay.
Braden looks over at you and he says, oh, those Jerry cans.
That was all the fuel I had.
Oh, good.
It's still got some in it.
Okay.
I wasn't sure if I use.
Oh, you know what?
I did refill it after we finished with our yard work today.
(38:12):
So I mean, what behind the thermal blanket's breathing?
Because I didn't want somebody messing with it.
Well, I'm going to mess with it real good.
Well, this is different circumstances.
So I happened to grab my golf clubs on the way out.
I lost all of them while I was making a dead sprint for a pool.
And Justin says, oh, you mean these?
(38:33):
He was he just holding them all?
He's got them slung over like he's your catty.
He says just so to just to be clear, I'm not carrying that.
He looks exhausted, by the way.
He's like huffing and puffing.
He's like, oh, thanks, Justin.
I will probably need all the.
And I have an axe.
I don't have axes.
(38:54):
No, there's someone on the wall there.
Could someone hand me one that looks lighter than the others?
Here's a child safe axe and I grab him one of the small ones.
Okay.
You did you give him like some ninja stars?
That's right.
There's a giant one that's like chopping wood and like Martin Freshley can reaches for that.
(39:15):
And then right before he grabs it, he moves very smaller little axes that they like give
kids at like a throwing.
Yup.
Axe throwing range.
It was like the size of your hand.
Basically, yeah, grabs one of them and hands it to Justin.
Go, give me a second.
Oh, all right.
(39:35):
Yeah, this is perfect.
Thank you.
I really appreciate that.
And he pockets an inhaler and he holds the he takes the axe that you give him.
Well, we got our stuff.
So we head out to the.
Are we going after that?
Really?
Where are we going now?
The big foot ran into the woods.
You want to chase after that big foot?
Well, why else are we grabbing all this gear to protect ourselves?
(40:00):
The best defense is a good offense.
And just as you're discussing what you should do next, you hear a scream off in the distance.
It sounds an awful lot like Hazel and you peek out from the now lit up supply shack and
you see the scrungus is at the chapel and it's clawing its way at the front doors.
(40:28):
August 15th, Anno Domini, 1588.
Another turn of the season here on Roanoke.
And despite father's continued absence, we have persevered.
The soil, though stubborn at first, has yielded a fair bounty.
(40:52):
Master Kendall has a knack for coaxing life from the earth and the corn stands tall and
proud in the fields.
We have even managed to strengthen the palisades, felling more timber and reinforcing the perimeter.
It offers a measure of comfort, a sense of security against the unknown wilderness that
surrounds us.
(41:13):
Life here has settled into a rhythm of work and quiet companionship.
The women folk tend to the gardens and the children, while the men see to the hunting
and the fortifications.
But even in this relative peace, there are reminders of the wildness that claims this
land.
Just yesterday morning, while Mistress Goodwife was out foraging for scubbinar grapes, a welcome
(41:37):
sweetness in our diet, she was set upon by some manner of beast.
It moved swiftly in with the ferocity none of us have yet encountered.
Though she fought bravely, she sustained a nasty gash upon her arm.
After Hughes, our surgeon, has tended to it, and she rests now, pale but thankfully alive.
(42:01):
It serves as a stark reminder that even within our small haven, dangers lurk.
The wilderness here is untamed and we must remain ever vigilant.
We pray daily for Father's safe return and the supplies he promised.
Until then, we must rely on our own strength and the bonds we have forged in this new land.
(42:22):
May God watch over us.
Eleanor dare.
