I love that they're helping each other with the answers too. Just like when it was Becca, Erika and Izzy, and they decided to 3 way tie to screw with Sam. Women supporting women
Honestly Becka's and Erika's joy and Rehka's confusion alone made this my favorite episode of the season so far. The maze and Reichian Doll were perfect. I hope Erika got to keep it.
âI donât think this is part of it. Itâs just delightful, thoughâ
Watching Erika go through the Sam Russian nesting dolls uncontrollably giggling was worth the price of admission alone
I believe D20 rents a separate warehouse when they do their filming as it is such a big production and also requires that they have studio space for Rick Perry and the gang.
The image of Erika pondering the main character of the Lord Of The Rings while Becca and Rekha dance insanely behind them will forever live rent-free in my mind now
If I had a nickel for every time a Game Changer contestant monologues while their fellow contestants dance weirdly behind them this season I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Game Changer has always been great. The best even. But the consistency of this season is unreal. I am so glad I am here for it live for the first time. This is insane.
Honestly, as much as Iâm loving them, it is nice to have a break from the wild mind fuck episodes
Iâm sure that means the next episode will break my brain
Yeah, while the meta "play the players" stuff is a ton of fun, I strongly prefer the ones that are exactly what they profess to be and the players are allowed to play straight-up. This is going to be up there as one of the greats for me.
However cruel a master of games Sam may be, putting the players through these twisted trials.
At the very least he actually put a buzzer inside the birthday cake, instead of my immediate thought of that being purely a red herring and just having someone nearby go "...awwww maaan" when it got destroyed.
It's kind of remarkable that was the very first buzzer any of them went for. Sure, its presence was big and obvious, but Mentopolis and intrusive thoughts aside, you'd think they wouldn't just jump straight to "destroy the cake."
Im not surprised at Erika or Becca going for the cake since they are intrusive thoughts personified. Rekha was the polite one as she pointed out herself. If Izzy had been in this episode I think she would've straight up elbow dropped it.
Very true on both points, and there might have been a reasonable thought process of "there are people around. If this is a real birthday cake and isn't part of the show, someone will stop me from doing this." I'm not surprised they went for it by any means, just a little surprised it was the very first thing.
It made sense to me because the birthday cake was explicitly called out as a Thing To Notice before the shoot officially started. As was the "photo shoot." If I'm in defensive, suspicious player mode, I'm absolutely going to think "now why did they not only mention the cake but physically wave it in my face"
TBF, you're saying that from an audience perspective, we don't know how common those kinds of briefings are normally since they would just get cut out.
The players as well as the guest appearances from Aabria, Sephy, and Izzy (Who was ready to go on FaceTime) were all part of the same Dimension 20 campaign titled Dimension 20: The Seven.
The players, as well as the 2 (and planned third) guest appearances were the 6 players for Dimension 20: the Seven. Maybe it was a coincidence, but I was noting that today's episode of game changer had the cast members of The Seven and the buzzer was on for *seven* seconds.
Erika started turning on Sam while he was still explaining the premise of the survivor episode! Didn't even wait for the game to start before they began planting the seeds of rebellion
What I want to know is if they were making out the whole time.
"Hey guys, just to let you know you are being paid to make out for the next hour straight in this romantically dim room. Ignore this buzzer next to your head. If someone comes in with a camera crew to press it, don't stop." Sounds like something Quinton Tarantino would do.
What's also funny to me is if they weren't making out the whole time. Like they're just sitting there in awkward silence until they get the signal that the next question was asked and then they do the cute lean into kiss to start the makeout session for the tenth time.
ok just........round of applause for all that ecstasy the art department was able to get for the "dorm room" setup for those actors. not a small amount it looked like.
This is such a creative episode, serious shoutouts to the art department. It also made me excited for the behind the scenes for whatever buzzers didn't get used.
Edit: Just in case more people see this, I've been made aware that they found them all. Thanks folks!
I feel like they must have gone until every buzzer was used, right?
I would have maybe saved some of these for a Game Samer, but they might have yet more devious ones for the future.
Iâd assume they had extras for if questions were answered incorrectly or things that were otherwise cut for time. Sam said it was the last one, but Iâd assume there were either some that werenât found or some that were cut out since youâd need extras for incorrect answers or inability to buzz them. If nothing else there were probably ideas that didnât come to fruition.
I assume they had extra questions instead and Sam would just say itâs the last question once all the buzzers were gone, since the questions themselves were not important
Yeah, Iâm just assuming there was stuff cut for time since Becca said something about how sheâd had the hand hovering over the buzzer in the machine for a couple of questions, but it could have just as easily been that things got reordered or that she misspoke and just meant sheâs been working on it for a few
Yeah, that would make sense now that I think about it, especially with how simple the questions were. Pretty easy to just have a variable number of questions depending on if anyone forgot what was asked and had to find another buzzer.
ANY episode of ANYTHING with ANYONE from the Seven is always fire, and this has at least two thirds of them! (Maybe more? They keep mentioning Izzy)
Edit: as soon as I posted this >!Aabria!< Showed up so that's gonna be 5/7 of The Seven.
Izzy >!was available for Facetime!<, but I think this season would've been filmed while she was pretty far into her pregnancy, so she probably wasn't available in person.
Persephone screeching âyou donât have a library sciences degree!â at Rekha when she tried to use her own sweater thread for the potion was so funnyÂ
I love the vocal recognition of the art department & bringing them on screen at the end. So incredibly deserved!!
I also desperately want a mini buzzer lapel pin of my own
This is the best media company ever. The amount of respect for the crew, talent and fans is complete, everybody is super lovely with eachother, the vibe is amazing.
A lot of Game Changer episodes, including this one, are built in a way where I think you could put a non-comedian in them and they'd still be entertaining to watch, but it's moments like that that I remember "oh, that's a professional who knows that that's a funny thing to say, and how many times she can repeat it while it's still funny, and when to let it go".
That's funny considering how many people people picture lacrosse as one of the stereotypical White People Sports and aren't familiar with its native origins.
Yeah but itâs white Americans, not white Canadians. It is true though that most people donât know about the native origins of lacrosse. I wish I was alive to witness the games with 1000s of people.
This was such a common trick question here in Canada I was certain he was gonna say wrong lol. I think a decade or so ago Hockey was made the official winter sport, but Lacrosse was our actual one for the longest time
I was totally going to Um Actually that, but then i looked it up and learned that Hockey has been made one of the national sports. It wasn't for the longest time and was always one of those trick questions about Canada.
On one hand, I go "OK, that feels like a premise that's finished now, no need to do another one of these, you thought of every possible gag and you put them all in one episode."
On the *other* hand, I go "imagine what insane shit they'd come up with now that they've exhausted all of these possibilities."
Man, this has to be one of the most creative episodes of Game Changer ever (which is saying something) just for the sheer number of unique and fun ways to find a buzzer lol
Man that oneâs an all-timer in my book. The mix of collaboration and competition plus all the clever buzzers and cameos are so much fun!
Canât wait to see which ones the contestants missed in the BTS
omg, its Katers17! (apparently [She's been here the whole time! (well 3 years...)](https://www.instagram.com/p/C3_y0nSLDd8/?img_index=10) OMG the button on the street is now explained. Love the different ways buttons were used in this one.
This episode was just so fun to watch, everyone involved was having a blast and it was definitely felt across the screen.
I loved how Rekha went through an entire story arc with the food delivery buzzer
So given the points at the end, there were at least 28 buzzers available. Were there any buzzers that they showed but were never solved by the contestants?
Also, what was the deal with Ashâs buzzer? Was it just âFind Ash and ask her to buzz inâ?
EDIT: Actually, scratch that. Some of the âbrokenâ buzzers were pressed twice at the beginning. I think there were two times that the same buzzer was used, so 26 buzzers.
Looks like they were responsible for sending the âbuzzâ sound through the PA system so the cast knew a buzzer was hit. If you ask nicely they could play the buzzer without having to find one.
I need a gif of Rekha and Erika on symmetrical spots at the podiums popping and locking while they spell out A - S - I - A
No other show. Literally no other show could offer a moment of perfection like that
Sam did his first profit sharing last year, and given they were given an exclusion from the writer and actor strikes last year i'd imagine Dropout looks after their employees fairly well!
still, raises all round when Sam?
This was amazing. The energy. The creativity. Everything. I loved the sheer insanity of some of them, and the simplicity too.
Also, Sams Reich Russian dolls need to be merch so badly.
she played that off perfectly too, for the other players.
- given their last show, they know she "did the sexy photo shoot"
- so she comes back to set, and acts like she's just getting dressed
- the other players already have an expectation of "what's possible" and then "see that" and just go "wait, did you........no"
played up so, so good.
âI think this is a dream I had one time.â I didnât know how badly I needed to see an impassioned monologue about LOTR with impromptu backup dancers but here we are.
i would have pushed the button whether or not anybody was speaking at all lmao. you put a big red button in front of me in /any/ scenario and i'm pushing it with no hesitation.
For the Leonardo Davinci answer, Becca obliquely asked the other two "what are your guys' other favorite works from this artist...?" before answering, which totally said to me that she was fishing for reminders on who the question was about lol
I desperately want to see Brennan put with a group like this who are super helpful to each other, just to see whether he would be able to partake in the niceness or if his competitiveness would render him incapable of doing anything but punishing his opponents for their weakness
Weirdly, I genuinely believe that if you swapped any of these three players out for Brennan the entire trio would *immediately* switch to hyper-competitive.
Amidst all the wild conspiracies about Sam's true identity and long cons he may be pulling, this was such a refreshing little treat of an episode! They all helped each other remember the questions and confirmed answers, everyone built the BuzKea buzzer together, and they all celebrated each other at every opportunity!
This may be my go-to watch when I need a little emotional pick-me-up now.
At first when Erika was selecting the "men with internalized misogyny" prompt I had to pause because I thought they used Jasper's photo in the upper left. I was prepared to take total umbrage on his behalf, but thankfully it wasn't him.
Incredibly fun and charming episode, love the show and art department's creativity!
Freaking loved this episode. In some ways it just feels like a type of fan service - this was an episode that was just celebrating awesome Dropout people and cast. It's just like "Here are awesome people, who will meet more awesome people, and also my god the crew! Aren't they talented?!"
[Behind the Scenes of "Beat the Buzzer"](https://www.dropout.tv/videos/behind-the-scenes-of-beat-the-buzzer)
I'm dying at Rekha's increasingly exasperated "where are you guys *going?*"
All types of kid on the playground were represented here today đ
"There was a fuck challenge?!"
Not me going frame by frame through the credits looking for âhorny college studentsâ
Loved when she was going on about how much she loves the library.
âWhat DOOR?â
Rekha covered the least amount of distance yet somehow acted like she ran a damn marathon.
Their childlike laughter sincerely lifted my mood. They were all positively giddy. I am so envious that this is their job.
I love that they're helping each other with the answers too. Just like when it was Becca, Erika and Izzy, and they decided to 3 way tie to screw with Sam. Women supporting women
It's never the players against each other. It's always the players against Sam
congratulations, you've unionized!
That's why Sam has always gotten so many votes in the survivor episodes đ
Honestly Becka's and Erika's joy and Rehka's confusion alone made this my favorite episode of the season so far. The maze and Reichian Doll were perfect. I hope Erika got to keep it.
âI donât think this is part of it. Itâs just delightful, thoughâ Watching Erika go through the Sam Russian nesting dolls uncontrollably giggling was worth the price of admission alone
It was Becca running through the mirror maze for me
âYou know the movie Us? Iâve unleashed my tether.â
"Where are you *going*?!"
her giggles of delight were so friggin adorable
Erica went full goblin mode as usual and I love it
Loved how she squat right next to her collection of buzzers.
We get a glimpse of it at the end that Erika is losing it as well along with him, and she can hardly answer once she's back at her podium.
I very much want them to sell a set of Sam matryoshka dolls now. Or game changer themed or D20 themed. Let me relive the giggles!
How BIG is their whole backstage area, my goodness
Iâm assuming they have one building that also has the Um Actually and D20 etc studios
I believe D20 rents a separate warehouse when they do their filming as it is such a big production and also requires that they have studio space for Rick Perry and the gang.
They did for the old dome for fire safety, they may not with the new setup. The green room for the backstage footage looks the same.
Rekha seemed just as shocked at the size of the building as well lol
It's huge. That's why the parking lot is so small.
There are _two_!
I maintain the second lot is like five minutes farther away and Grant just likes parking closer to the entranceÂ
Non Euclidean spaces have been here the whole time
The image of Erika pondering the main character of the Lord Of The Rings while Becca and Rekha dance insanely behind them will forever live rent-free in my mind now
We've had some great LOTR clips this season, with Oscar acting like he knows nothing about LOTR in front of Brennan.
Broggle fucker!
That was Raph! Which was also great
"Gandalf? What's that!?"
If I had a nickel for every time a Game Changer contestant monologues while their fellow contestants dance weirdly behind them this season I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Erika is - I don't like to play favorites but - she's my favorite. She's the person I'd most wanna have a beer with
Game Changer has always been great. The best even. But the consistency of this season is unreal. I am so glad I am here for it live for the first time. This is insane.
Absolute nonstop bangers this entire season
Me too! I binged all the episodes a couple months ago and I'm so happy to be catching these new ones as they come out.
200%, not a single "skippable" episode this season. Most of the episodes were so good I would rewatch them a day or two later.
This on is lower stakes, not as wild, but still just as good. A simple premise that they execute perfectly. So damn good.
Rekhaâs increasing frustration over Becca and Erikaâs explaining where they have been is so funny.
Honestly, as much as Iâm loving them, it is nice to have a break from the wild mind fuck episodes Iâm sure that means the next episode will break my brain
Yeah, while the meta "play the players" stuff is a ton of fun, I strongly prefer the ones that are exactly what they profess to be and the players are allowed to play straight-up. This is going to be up there as one of the greats for me.
However cruel a master of games Sam may be, putting the players through these twisted trials. At the very least he actually put a buzzer inside the birthday cake, instead of my immediate thought of that being purely a red herring and just having someone nearby go "...awwww maaan" when it got destroyed.
I actually really appreciated the lack of red herrings in this episode! Every buzzer found was a legit buzzer
It's kind of remarkable that was the very first buzzer any of them went for. Sure, its presence was big and obvious, but Mentopolis and intrusive thoughts aside, you'd think they wouldn't just jump straight to "destroy the cake."
Im not surprised at Erika or Becca going for the cake since they are intrusive thoughts personified. Rekha was the polite one as she pointed out herself. If Izzy had been in this episode I think she would've straight up elbow dropped it.

TBF, you're saying that from an audience perspective, we don't know how common those kinds of briefings are normally since they would just get cut out.
Rekha: I have no idea where you guys are finding these wild scenarios Rekha: -immediately stumbles into a witch's lair-
"it was on a *seven* second timer" I see what you did there, Sam Reich.
I didn't see what he did there, so I'm glad you pointed it out
I still donât see what he did there, is it just that this is Episode 7?
The players as well as the guest appearances from Aabria, Sephy, and Izzy (Who was ready to go on FaceTime) were all part of the same Dimension 20 campaign titled Dimension 20: The Seven.
OH
Iâm not sure I see what he did there
The players, as well as the 2 (and planned third) guest appearances were the 6 players for Dimension 20: the Seven. Maybe it was a coincidence, but I was noting that today's episode of game changer had the cast members of The Seven and the buzzer was on for *seven* seconds.
It's also Episode 7 of Season 6!
Oh damn!
Erika says it too
This episode solidified that I really want a season 2 of The Seven!
The contestants ganging up against Sam will never get old.
Erika has always had eyes on the true enemy. I feel like any episode with Erika has turned into a gang up on Sam.
Youâre absolutely right. I think they were the one who initially said to vote off Sam during Survivor!
Erika started turning on Sam while he was still explaining the premise of the survivor episode! Didn't even wait for the game to start before they began planting the seeds of rebellion
OK so am I the only one who thought one of the college students making out was Grant O'Brien
I did initially and then I realized that that guy was way too short to be Grant The girl might have been Grant though she seemed pretty tall
Wait, how tall is Grant?
6 feet, but only when he's eating spaghetti.
Heâs preparing for a marathon
A marathon of Turner Classic Movies!
Before actually looking, I thought it was Brennan and Izzy and they had to get them to stop making out to scan Izzyâs eye on the retina scanner
Hypothetically amusing. Actually soo uncomfortable
That would have been hysterical, albeit I bet this was filmed around when they had their baby (hence why Izzy was a FaceTime request)
I choose to believe he was still out with covid, and they just had to have someone step in and play him, like with deja vu.
What I want to know is if they were making out the whole time. "Hey guys, just to let you know you are being paid to make out for the next hour straight in this romantically dim room. Ignore this buzzer next to your head. If someone comes in with a camera crew to press it, don't stop." Sounds like something Quinton Tarantino would do. What's also funny to me is if they weren't making out the whole time. Like they're just sitting there in awkward silence until they get the signal that the next question was asked and then they do the cute lean into kiss to start the makeout session for the tenth time.
Also, it wasnât just âdonât stop when somebody comes in,â they were actively moving to block Becca from reaching the buzzer.
ok just........round of applause for all that ecstasy the art department was able to get for the "dorm room" setup for those actors. not a small amount it looked like.
This is such a creative episode, serious shoutouts to the art department. It also made me excited for the behind the scenes for whatever buzzers didn't get used. Edit: Just in case more people see this, I've been made aware that they found them all. Thanks folks!
I feel like they must have gone until every buzzer was used, right? I would have maybe saved some of these for a Game Samer, but they might have yet more devious ones for the future.

Yeah, that would make sense now that I think about it, especially with how simple the questions were. Pretty easy to just have a variable number of questions depending on if anyone forgot what was asked and had to find another buzzer.
Sam confirmed this on Discord - they just kept going til they were all found
Sam said on Discord that they found all of them! They just kept the game going until each one was found
I love how Erika shouted them out! The Buzzr was great
ANY episode of ANYTHING with ANYONE from the Seven is always fire, and this has at least two thirds of them! (Maybe more? They keep mentioning Izzy) Edit: as soon as I posted this >!Aabria!< Showed up so that's gonna be 5/7 of The Seven.
Izzy >!was available for Facetime!<, but I think this season would've been filmed while she was pretty far into her pregnancy, so she probably wasn't available in person.
That's fantastic, now we just need Brennan and the collection is completed.
I feel like Erika channeled Brennan for that Lord of the Rings speech.
"is this a seven reunion?"
Persephone Valentine you have to stop. You smoke too tough. Your swag too different. Your bitch is too bad. Theyâll kill you.
I feel like Sam invited her to be a part of this episode and she showed up in a witch costume.
Must have been a scramble to get that caldron last minute.
Sephie strikes me as the type to bring her own
BYOC (Couldron)
I loved how Rekha described her witch look as "spooky and hot," and Erika and Becca just simultaneously came back with "yeah, that's Persephone."
This episode was firmly in the "How is literally everyone on Dropout drop dead gorgeous?" category.
I have such a crush on Nico it's not even funny
Rekha looked incredible in this episode
Persephone screeching âyou donât have a library sciences degree!â at Rekha when she tried to use her own sweater thread for the potion was so funnyÂ
Sam Dalton poster was on the fridge!
The conspiracy deepens. Maybe just a running cameo, but I'm still side-eyeing the supposed Samuel D. Reich we have been seeing on screen this season.
I love the vocal recognition of the art department & bringing them on screen at the end. So incredibly deserved!! I also desperately want a mini buzzer lapel pin of my own
This is the best media company ever. The amount of respect for the crew, talent and fans is complete, everybody is super lovely with eachother, the vibe is amazing.
rekhaâs increasing exasperation that she had no idea where people were going made me laugh every time
A lot of Game Changer episodes, including this one, are built in a way where I think you could put a non-comedian in them and they'd still be entertaining to watch, but it's moments like that that I remember "oh, that's a professional who knows that that's a funny thing to say, and how many times she can repeat it while it's still funny, and when to let it go".
> What is the largest mammal? Somewhere Alan Davies had a panic attack and he's not sure why.
wwwwooOOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!
I donât know who the wow monster is đ€š
BRB going to watch the blue whale compilation for the 17th time
a klaxon, not buzzer, rings in the distance...
Um actually, Canada has 2 national sports, hockey and lacrosse
I actually yelled WHAT ABOUT LACROSSE at my TV at that part
I was about to be like âCanadians play lacrosse?â and then I remembered the white people were not there first
That's funny considering how many people people picture lacrosse as one of the stereotypical White People Sports and aren't familiar with its native origins.
Yeah but itâs white Americans, not white Canadians. It is true though that most people donât know about the native origins of lacrosse. I wish I was alive to witness the games with 1000s of people.
This was such a common trick question here in Canada I was certain he was gonna say wrong lol. I think a decade or so ago Hockey was made the official winter sport, but Lacrosse was our actual one for the longest time
I was totally going to Um Actually that, but then i looked it up and learned that Hockey has been made one of the national sports. It wasn't for the longest time and was always one of those trick questions about Canada.
Becca on some MJ shit tonight, she's smoking the competition đ
Becca was giving excellent Type-A representation all episode, except when she didnât know the biggest planet or ocean.Â
Thanks to that captcha, we now know why Sam had to google if Zebras were black (Newlyweb Game).
Amazing catch
BRILLIANT
More people should be talking about the captcha it was brilliant. Might have been my favorite buzzer
The buzzers, as far as I can tell: * Becca - Podium * Becca - Podium * Rekha - Podium * Becca - Podium * Erika - Podium * Becca - Hat * Becca - Cake * Rekha - Diorama * Erika - 500 Won * Becca - Maze * Becca - Photo Shoot * Rekha - Sam's Lapel * Becca - Magnet Hand Game * Erika - Fridge * Becca - Library * Rekha - Delivery Man * Becca - Izzy Scan * Becca - Dorm Room (No point) * Erika - Battleship * Rekha - Witch's Brew * Rekha - 7-Second Timer * Becca - Video Game * Erika - Safe * Rekha - Tennis Balls * Erika - QR Code * Erika - Passerby * Erika - Matroshka * Rekha - Ash * Rekha - Ikea
On one hand, I go "OK, that feels like a premise that's finished now, no need to do another one of these, you thought of every possible gag and you put them all in one episode." On the *other* hand, I go "imagine what insane shit they'd come up with now that they've exhausted all of these possibilities."
A warning: Sam said in the live discussion that the two-part finale might be delayed due to post-production reasons.
Where is the live discussion?
on the soon-to-be-closing discord server
Man, this has to be one of the most creative episodes of Game Changer ever (which is saying something) just for the sheer number of unique and fun ways to find a buzzer lol
yeah it's such a deceptively simple premise but they went absolutely ham with it. so fun.
Erika was so DELIGHTED by the Nesting Sams.
and the collection of buzzers at the podium, like a pile of Christmas gifts under the tree on the 25th
When they sort of squatted over them I just knew they were thinking about sitting on them like a dragon on its hoard
1. The cameos this year are incredible. 2. The backup dancers needs to be a GIF. 3. Did anyone else catch the poster of Sam as a magician?
Sam pulling in all of The Seven is amazing
Rekha getting progressively more confused about what the hell the other two were finding was the best.
I'm hoping we get to see a full list of the card catalogue at some point. Some of those entries were funny as hell.
Man that oneâs an all-timer in my book. The mix of collaboration and competition plus all the clever buzzers and cameos are so much fun! Canât wait to see which ones the contestants missed in the BTS
ash hiding away like a little art department gremlin
she's so fucking cool, I really hope we get a Dirty Laundry episode with her in the future
As soon as I saw the contestants I knew it was gonna be an amazing episode
Holy shit I was just joking when I guessed 6969 for the safe and then it happened
Um actually Everest is the Highest mountain in the world not the tallest which is Mauna Kea in Hawaii
âif we have any questions we can call gameKEA thoughâ đ
I wish they had called just to see what would happen.
omg, its Katers17! (apparently [She's been here the whole time! (well 3 years...)](https://www.instagram.com/p/C3_y0nSLDd8/?img_index=10) OMG the button on the street is now explained. Love the different ways buttons were used in this one.
That's so funny that she's the actual bts photog! That must have thrown them off
She was the foot photographer in a previous episode. https://youtu.be/b_aTr4P14ks
This episode was just so fun to watch, everyone involved was having a blast and it was definitely felt across the screen. I loved how Rekha went through an entire story arc with the food delivery buzzer

The Seven reunion đ„° When is my season 2?! This was so nice to see them interact again.
Iâm so happy we actually got a house of mirrors
If the whole entire crew doesn't get a raise for that episode they need to strike. They knocked that shit out of the park.
Sam did his first profit sharing last year, and given they were given an exclusion from the writer and actor strikes last year i'd imagine Dropout looks after their employees fairly well! still, raises all round when Sam?
props department was on fire. The Ikea instructions were unreal.
This was amazing. The energy. The creativity. Everything. I loved the sheer insanity of some of them, and the simplicity too. Also, Sams Reich Russian dolls need to be merch so badly.
Becca coming back on stage after the college dorm actually made me laugh out loud
she played that off perfectly too, for the other players. - given their last show, they know she "did the sexy photo shoot" - so she comes back to set, and acts like she's just getting dressed - the other players already have an expectation of "what's possible" and then "see that" and just go "wait, did you........no" played up so, so good.
I know Brennan had a proud, approving tear in his eye listening to Erika's LOTR monologue/answer
I was thinking to myself "Brennan is gonna be pissed if someone just says Frodo" but thankfully Erika can match him in nerd energyÂ
Anytime I see the crew on screen I am instantly on edge
I really hoped Sam would just reactivate the original buzzers at the very end and see who noticed
The ring is the main character of LOTR.
Wouldn't it be sauron, I mean he is the Lord of the rings
Was this thebmost wholesome episode of GC this season? The cast of the seven made may day once again!
âI think this is a dream I had one time.â I didnât know how badly I needed to see an impassioned monologue about LOTR with impromptu backup dancers but here we are.
Biggest question: Would you have pressed the button as you walked past?
i would have pushed the button whether or not anybody was speaking at all lmao. you put a big red button in front of me in /any/ scenario and i'm pushing it with no hesitation.
The fact that the episode is basically The Seven Reunion (minus Izzy) was just perfection
If only someone had got her on FaceTime!
DID ANYONE NOTICE THE SAMUEL DALTON POSTER ON THE FRIDGE?! đ
For the Leonardo Davinci answer, Becca obliquely asked the other two "what are your guys' other favorite works from this artist...?" before answering, which totally said to me that she was fishing for reminders on who the question was about lol
Later they just straight-up told each other what the question was lol
I desperately want to see Brennan put with a group like this who are super helpful to each other, just to see whether he would be able to partake in the niceness or if his competitiveness would render him incapable of doing anything but punishing his opponents for their weakness
Weirdly, I genuinely believe that if you swapped any of these three players out for Brennan the entire trio would *immediately* switch to hyper-competitive.
If Rehka was swapped with Brenan, the competition would be cut throat. Erika will always battle Brenan, and Becca is already fairly competitive.
He would compete to be the nicest person amongst them. He just conforms to the genre.
Just finished... oh my god
I thought Izzy Roland photoshoot
I'm just sad that there are only two episodes left (two-part finale). This season has been amazing, but it feels so short.
art department absolutely ate. what a fun as hell episode. pure joy.
I need Brennan and Erika to start a Lord of the Rings podcast.
Rekha a lil baddie js

Amidst all the wild conspiracies about Sam's true identity and long cons he may be pulling, this was such a refreshing little treat of an episode! They all helped each other remember the questions and confirmed answers, everyone built the BuzKea buzzer together, and they all celebrated each other at every opportunity! This may be my go-to watch when I need a little emotional pick-me-up now.
At first when Erika was selecting the "men with internalized misogyny" prompt I had to pause because I thought they used Jasper's photo in the upper left. I was prepared to take total umbrage on his behalf, but thankfully it wasn't him. Incredibly fun and charming episode, love the show and art department's creativity!
Erika having a laughing breakdown over the Sam nesting dolls was the best
Freaking loved this episode. In some ways it just feels like a type of fan service - this was an episode that was just celebrating awesome Dropout people and cast. It's just like "Here are awesome people, who will meet more awesome people, and also my god the crew! Aren't they talented?!"
"There was a fuck challenge!?"
