And with that, g'night and see you ... Valentine's Day?

#tlovmspoilers

Wait, where is Laura?

Laura is now draped across the bar, with elbow gloves and black boa, doing an all but a capella, dangerous performance of "Making My Way"...

No one has been injured.

#tlovmspoilers

This is karaoke with a vibe not unlike early G&S dance parties.

#tlovmspoilers

Ashley & Sam off walk to "prepare" while the others vamp, as Travis leans over to Arthur talking cliffhangers. Something happens offcamera, they avert...

And then Ashley & Sam are in country rig (ish) & burst into song.

#tlovmspoilers

Any conscious changes to character (read: Scanlan getting softer?)

"everything is deliberate as long as I say so" -- but if he was noticeably different, there'd have to be a narrative reason.

"the button arc"

#tlovmspoilers

Why not intro Kayleigh with music battle?

Sam notes there's more episodes to come, next steps ahead.

#tlovmspoilers

"Modular kit" for herdspeople design -- most out of very little.

#tlovmspoilers

They're still stuck on the Eminem angle. 2017ish Home Game exigencies --

Mica is also never going to recover.

#tlovmspoilers

Dr. Dranzel is now a fan of Scanlan rather than a mentor. Sam notes that they'd met prior, timeline got rearranged.

(He was in Episode 37: https://www.kryogenix.org/crsearch/html/cr1-37.html#l4h20m0s)

#tlovmspoilers

Sam notes that Kayleigh is important for various reasons he won't spoil (then spoils)

Scanlan's backstory was Eminem, so Dr. Dra-nzel. Eminem has a kid named Haley...

(Arthur loses his shit. "I've been working on this for THREE YEARS")

Cut to Kaylie designs.

#tlovmspoilers

12 different Kevdak designs sketched

"is this gonna kill the animators?"
Artists who get excited try harder, Arthur notes.

We cut to the Kevdak alts: moving through different chest tattoos, scars.

#tlovmspoilers

Travis discussing the Kevdak voice from Matt originally ("his jaw unhinged, moved forward, and to one side...")

#tlovmspoilers

Sam notes the common question about the origin of "buddies" (which is a habit, which may have come in part from a Key & Peele skit)

#tlovmspoilers

We cut to animatic of part of the episode.

#tlovmspoilers

Travis recaps the differences in the backstory for Grog -- hands dirtier, Stonejaw Strongjaw omitted.

#tlovmspoilers

@[email protected] highlighting backstage labor FTW -- a whole-ass city in Blender folks will never see.

#tlovmspoilers

2 dozen toothpicks from a Thai restaurant becomes... this.

Mica notes the 3rd cliffhanger (each batch does so)

#tlovmspoilers

Travis notes this is KINDA like the campaign, in that Grog wants to go alone, but UNLIKE the campaign, there's not reinforcements outside.

Taliesin's favorite part of this is throwing a loop.
"adaptation's so fuckin' interesting"
(someone's gonna quote that)

#tlovmspoilers

Arthur notes the slashes of sunlight -- usually layered on but here was built in.

#tlovmspoilers

Arthur: "I have a feeling that guy in the back is supposed to be... me..."

#tlovmspoilers

"This is Taliesin dying"
"if you hear skin being pulled back..."

#tlovmspoilers

Changing to Scanlan not knowing Dranzel allows focus on Kayleigh.

Many iterations of discussions for how a dragon caries a sword.

#tlovmspoilers

Sam notes that he saw a little confusion about Pike's black hair & her shorthanding of the greats for Wilhelm.

#tlovmspoilers

The sophisticated level of lighting arrangements and schemas are discussed. This episode has a bit of it all.

#tlovmspoilers

"failed his check..."

*Kayleigh gets the jump*

#tlovmspoilers

Cobalt Soul reference pointed out, then we see DragonFly!Scanlan (with speeded-up Sam buzzing)

#tlovmspoilers

Discussing of aged-up Grog leads to Vox Machina Muppet Babies digression.

#tlovmspoilers

"The killing guy is Liam"
"Hey can get so gravelly"

#tlovmspoilers

"Palette" cleanser from the Feywild.

#tlovmspoilers

Sam notes that the music is not done for this season -- there's more to come in the final batch.
