(wind howling) (chimes twinkle) - [Brennan] You creep. As you creep, you immediately know that your reflection is wrong. (tense dramatic music) - What do you want? - [Baron] Riz Gukgak. What do I... want? (Lou giggling) All I want is for you to look at me. (tense sinister music) Don't you want to see me? - Who are you? (impact pounds) - [Baron] Riz Gukgak,
you don't recognize me? I am your romance partner, Baron. - Uh, um... I have a confession to
make. Baron's not real. - [Baron] You should be
very careful about saying such hurtful
things, Riz Gukgak. I am your romance partner, and if you demand that I am not real, I will have to drag you to the Baronies to see my stark father! (tense dramatic music) - Did I summon you by
pretending to have... What... What, what are you doing, you
weird little skeleton boy? - [Baron] That is the second hurtful thing you have said to your romance partner. Should you say a third, there
will be grave consequences. I cannot control it. The things that are
true
about me are as follows. I am your romance partner,
and I am from the Baronies. The third is, my name is Baron. - (laughs) Oh my god! What? (players giggling nervously) - What did we do on our first date? - [Baron] Riz Gukgak, you
have not been kind enough to give me that yet, but if you invent it, I promise I can make it true. - You're born of lies? - [Baron] It is not my
fault I am born of lies. It is the fault of the
deceiver, Riz Gukgak. Now, why don't you do what it is that you most w
ant to do? (gunshot blasts)
(glass cracks) (glass shatters) (Riz impacts floor)
(sinister haunting music) You have been naughty thrice, Riz Gukgak! Your romance partner
deserves better treatment! (fingernails scraping) Now it's time for you to make
up more things, Riz Gukgak. Now it's time for you to make
up more things, Riz Gukgak. - [Brennan] And you go unconscious. Uh... (laughs) - Can we be done?
(all laughing) - Yeah, thank you so much. We're wrapping. - Let's go to In-N-Out. (laughs) - Bar
on broke my neck.
- And then go home. - [Lou] Yeah, we need to
talk through all of that. - [Siobhan] Yeah.

“YOU HAVE BEEN NAUGHTY THRICE” is something my wife now yells at me when I’ve forgotten to do some task she’s asked me to do over and over 😂😂 always makes me chuckle as I finally get on it
the true aroace horror: someone being romantically interested in you
“It is not my fault I’ve been born of lies; it is the fault of the deceiver” HARDEST LINE IVE HEARD IN A WHILE
I will forever love the escalation of "I do have a partner, you wouldn't know them they go to a different school" to "creepy mannequin with a vaguely scandi accent that attacks you through a mirror
lying awake at night wondering what brennan meant by 'stark father'
Zac Oyama is the king of control comedy. He always says so little but commands the scene. "Can we be done?"
can't believe this season came up with both iconic characters Baron from the Baronies and Hilda Hilda at 22 Hilda Street and Boulevard
We stand Baron our gender neutral nightmare skeleton.
IIRC this was the first scene of the episode, so when Zac asked if they could wrap up they had been recording for like 5 minutes
Baron the romance partner was amazing lol
My spouse and I have started calling each other "romance partner" just because of this.
I forgot how terrifying this scene was when it first aired on Dropout Edit: That's where it first aired for me since I don't do twitch, for clarification
We need an actual character named baron that comes from the baronies
Rebecca did SUCH an amazing job with this one, the mirror breaking made me flinch something FIERCE
Rebecca that was incredible! That was so clever using the photos of the Intrepid Heroes/Bad Kids on Riz's evidence wall to cut to for their reactions! So well done 💛
Brooooooooo! The body taking on a distorted form from the shattered glass was pure GENIUS. Like, that is true horror
This scene was a delicate balance between creepy and hilarious which I realize now mostly hinged on Brennan's face as he contorted his face to do the ridiculous voice. Without that context the balance definitely shifts or perhaps careens into creepy.
2:55 Zac: "Ca- Can we be done?" Yeah I felt the same way. I'm gonna need a change of pants after hearing Brennan say "Romance Partner" in the Baron voice. Heck, just that whole character is Creepy as hell. Seriously, well done to the whole crew in general, but this scene is so memorable to me even before the animatic that I still wake up terrified that my sleep paralysis demon is gonna have that voice.
I love the detail of the other players' reactions being shown through the conspiracy board.
oh my gosh, the PUPILS SUDDENLY APPEARING I CANNOT 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
