do you?
and if you want me to wander backstage, to...
spill the beans-
i mean, there's really no need for us to do that, because-
it's the final question, right?
these other two are in the loop.
they're in the loop!
this is a-
I'M THE ONLY ONE OUT OF THE LOOP, it would seem.
[heheheheh]
AND IF WE CHECK MYYYY POINT TOTAL HERE,
i don't NEED to walk to the front. because i KNOW what it is. IT'S A BIG OLE GOOSE EGG, GANG!
IT'S A FAT ZERO! HELLO! A LITTLE LATE ADDITION! TO THE NUMERICAL SYMBOL CHART, BROUGHT TO US FROM OUR FRIENDS IN ARABIA. LITTLE BIT OF TRIVIA THAT I HAPPEN TO KNOW ABOUT THE HISTORY. OF NUMBERS.
THAT KIND OF LITTLE TIDBIT WOULD SERVE ME WELL IN MOST TRIVIA GAMES. UNLESS IT HAD BEEN.
RIGGED FROM THE BEGINNING.
woah, dude.
WOAH, DUDE!
OHHHH.
[WOAHHHH DUDE]
I'VE ONLY JUST BEGUN TO PULL THE THREAD.
[HAHAHAHA]
ON THIS SWEATER. FRIENDS. YOU WOULD THINK. IN A GAME. WHERE THERE ARE ONLY TWO. POSSIBLE. CORRECT. C H O I C E S . THAT ONE WOULD STUMMMMBLE INTO THE RIGHT ANSWER EVERY SO OFTEN! WOULDN'T YOU! IN FACT! THE PROBABILITY OF NEVER GUESSING RIGHT IN THE FULL GAME IS A STATISTICAL W O N D E R ! AND YET. Here We Are.
introduced at the top of the game as a champion, what do you think that means? Icarus, flying too close to the sun. but it seems DAEDALUS, our little MASTER CRAFTER OVER HERE, HAD SOME WAX WINGS OF HIS OWN, DIDN'T HE. wanted to see his son fall. fall from the sky. OH, HOW CLOSE TO THE SUN HE FLEW. WELL I'M NOT. HAVING IT. I'VE SOLVED YOUR LABYRINTH, PUZZLE-MASTER!
THE MINOTAUR'S ESCAPED! AND YOU'RE GONNA GET THE HORNS, BUDDY!
HHAHAHAHAHAHAH [COUGH]
okay, are we-
can i tell you what the thing is?
did we think we were the ones in on it, but actually brennan was the only one in on it and that was rehearsed?
that was an incredible monologue, brennan,
what is the rule of the game?
[can we all say it?]
I CANNOT WIN
THAT IS CORRECT, BRENNAN!
YOU CANNOT WIN THE GAME!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
[deep breath]
[sigh]
HEHEHEHEHEHEH
