BRIAN: Los Angeles! it's Critical Role Live!

[Applause & cheering]

BRIAN: Welcome, welcome, welcome. I apologise in advance for many of the things you're gonna see here tonight. As usual. I'll take these off 'cause I can't really see anything. We couldn't afford the insurance in case I fall off the stage. Guys! How does everybody feel? Is everybody ready to stay turnt this evening?

[Cheering]

BRIAN: As you know, we spend a lot of time on our outfits for these live shows. I went online, and I Googled... I'm colourblind, is the problem. I wanted to know, like, what do the drug dealers in Beverly Hills dress like?

[Laughing]

BRIAN: Well, this is actually what I wear when I go to the skate park to I sell cigerattes to kids.

[Laughing]

BRIAN: We have a few announcements to get to before... we can just keep talking about this outfit. This outfit kinda says, like, this outfit says, cocaine's back baby!

[Cheering]

BRIAN: Just moments from now, my friends, you are going to witness, at these very tables, a masterclass in how to remember to play a character.

[Laughing & cheering]

BRIAN: I gotta be bad cop and say, we have a strict no spoiler policy tonight. So, as you, yes, thank you. As you can see, we have fancy cameras and equipment placed all over the place. This is being recorded, and it's going to be released next month. Which is awesome.

MATT: So...the band of adventurers known as Vox Machina...had come together as friends, family, compatriots, and (eventually) as some of the greatest heroes known to the current age of Exandria. In standing up to the force of the ascending god Vecna, managed to through guile, skill, and THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP...seal his essence away on the other side of the Divine Gate, where he could not trounce and destroy and mold the Prime Material Plane to his will. In the process, fulfilling a deal made by their compatriot, Vax...saw him step into the grasp of the Raven Queen and vanish for good... In that sorrowful combination of loss and victory, seeing the relatively robust remains of Vasselheim that you saved from the...massive incursion of the risen Primordial Titan that was serving as the delivery method for Vecna's city of Thar Amphala, you gathered your things and returned to Whitestone to just ruminate on the events that had just transpired...That brings us...only a couple of days later from this climactic battle...still fresh in the throes of the immensity of what has happened and what you've achieved, we come to Whitestone. As the rest of you kind of scatter off for a moment to deal with your own processing and digestion of this mixture of emotions, Pike...after taking some time in the Parchwood, you begin to ascend the stairs to the base of Whitestone Castle. Out of the corner of your eye, in the center of the courtyard...you see your best buddy, Grog - the massive goliath Barbarian...Berserker...from the Plains...of Tal'Dorei...champion of the causes you've fought together since your childhood - pluck a card from the Deck of Many Things...and in a brief, euphoric moment of surprise and excitement on his face...his eyes go dead and he falls forward face-first onto the ground...

MATT: Out of nowhere, five bugbears come charging out of a hallway, grab and tear off Percy's arm!

SAM: Aah!

LIAM: YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!
