They're talking about new outfits and the avatar for Chetney looks like he's got a new purple track suit. π

Yep, F.C.G.'s avatar is updated, too.
and Imogen's has lightning boobs!
They updated it after the shopping episode in Uthodurn.
That kiss may have blindsided some of the critters in Twitch chat. π€£
To be honest, I always thought the feelings were kinda one-sided from Imogen's side. I thought Laudna/Marisha wasn't thinking about romance at all.
Which got me thinking that it would be interesting to see PC romance that's one-sided (which I guess we kinda got with Caleb & Beau crushing on Jester), or if it didn't end well. So far everyone that got together seems to stay together (except for Vaxleth...?). I want to see what a break up would do to a party.
Bahaha, I love how the shopkeep Chet terrorized came back for revenge. I haven't finished the rest of the episode yet, but I am SOOOO down for another Tuyen + Chetney face off.
The team is back together! What do you guys want to see after their reunion?
I hope they find some powerful allies outside their group that know what's being discussed by the powerful organizations of kingdoms and guilds. They keep wondering where to go, the only royalty that will back them up is in Uthodurn, they're in Jrusar. It just feels a little aimless with quirky stuff thrown in. I want some allies or answers in this episode.
A werewolf plugging reviews on his "yelP" page... π
First masturbation joke ~ 30 minutes in with the "gripping of the staff" by our wonderful Laura.
The unintentional (or was it?) masturbation joke with Sam gripping his tiger costume might have been the best one all campaign.
The Matron of Ravens acolyte said they're mourning. Are they mourning Vax orb or mourning the Matron herself? Or something else entirely?
I think Vax
Couple little happy silent reactions:
- Marisha holding back a laugh after Milo/Mercer says "go in from the back side"
- Laura dancing after Ashton/Tal says to FCG/Sam "We are family" (famous Sister Sledge song)
This episode had the most song references in a while, I think. I will get a count on the rewatch on Monday.

They didn't realize, that the harness with the funnel probably takes in Dunamancy potions. I think it's similar to the one that Otohan Thul uses.
Sam: "You're never gonna be a good as director as me."
I love this ad
Is this a Vox Machina reunion show in the making? VM coming to save Vax?
According to Beacon, this is the beginning of the new arc "Race to the Moon"
I'd like some fan art of this. Matron of Ravens temple & acolytes always seem really cool.
Also, loving this scene. Liam is so good.
They're on the moon! Finally said it!
Liam always ready to attack his party. I kinda want "light them up, pretty" to happen to Orym too!
Ashley and Sam look like they're ready for a sleepover (the way Ashley is clutching her Mister plushie). The way they kinda have to silently cruise with significant recapping in this episode, is another comedy element for me, just for the weirdness alone. Sam staying solemn in dramatic moments in full tiger pajama and face paint and Ashley just looking shocked for the entire "kiss" scene was just hilarious to me.
Does that mean it's Vorb? He's alive and screaming? They got a vision?? What???
He's still alive!!! Go save Vax guys!!
