Beau Punches The Traveler | Misinterpreted Actions | Critical Role C2E108 Highlights

[@takakhan-z3w]

Rare and precious are the moments Matthew Mercer is provoked into peels of falsetto laughter.

[@GameShowManOne]

Topped only by Travis with his Mr. Belding laughter.

[@abmelonhead4]

“I’m so happy! Travelercon is everything I wanted it to be!” I love how Matt is even broken by this insanity

[@moonlight2870]

Both ashley and marish were like 'IS SHE GONNA JUMP IN?!"

[@NeoZeoHenshin]

I though so too

[@anthanyingram3333]

I mean when you say “she grasps the golden phallus in her hand with FINALITY, clenches her jaw, and runs toward the edge” that sounds like shits about to go down!!!

[@lukejackson3901]

THANK YOU.

[@GodBear97]

*Phallus - But other than that you are right on the money

[@curtisholsinger6023]

I admit, my brain went the exact same place as Marisha's

[@anthanyingram3333]

@Godbear thank yoy

[@squircle3593]

to be fair i also thought she was going to jump

[@kantik97]

rly ?

[@troyofathyns]

@@kantik97 yes really. who uses the word "finality" without meaning that they are about to do their final action?

[@HeavensOfMetal]

kantik97 Yeah, I mean she knew she had a dick glued to her hand & the Traveller told her to trust him - I don’t think she was thinking, “Oh, the Traveller will remove the glue”, she was probably more likely to think, “The Traveller will save me from the fire”. Then she takes a run to what Matt described as “the edge” - I mean, a lot of us were probably thinking it.

[@jetvulcan2020]

I was convinced she was going to do something stupid in a fit of religious fervor either jump or have her body guard cut off her hand so she could throw it into the volcano.

[@nailagciad]

@@kantik97 Yep, "Finality", "Trust me", "I trust you", "Clenches her jaw and goes into a run". I though those were clear signs from Mercer that she's about to throw herself off, religious fanaticism.

[@hfar_in_the_sky]

New title for Beau: "The God Puncher"

[@undead_pr1est978]

Or a Ghost. I dont know if its Marisha or Beau but shes always asks questions later.

[@czowiek9625]

Considering what it turned out to be it'd be more like "The God Slapper" but still

[@undead_pr1est978]

One punch girl not to be confused with little elf girl

[@Devilish98]

I mean to be fair the way matt was describing it it TOTALLY looked like she was going to jump

[@AlGhostZX]

i respectfully disagree

[@Devilish98]

Augusto Massini Pinto fair enough

[@TeamMemberNumberEight]

That’s what I thought was going to happen too

[@samfletcher5022]

I definitely thought she was going to jump too with all the talk of human sacrifice and the fact that the traveler was all for it

[@unvoicedapollo3318]

Honestly, I didn't think she was but I don't blame Marisha/Beau for thinking Celia was going to jump

[@patrickjohnson1649]

“Misinterpreted Actions” is my “How have you survived this long?” moment.

[@unvoicedapollo3318]

I mean they were talking about pretending to sacrifice people earlier. That's clearly what Beau/Marisha had on the back of her mind.

[@Morhek]

I think that's the hardest I've seen Travis laugh since the Keyfish incident.

[@cinnabonbons]

Marisha has the magic touch lmfao

[@dr7gon777]

"it will last your entire life" I love Jester

[@AnimeWolf5193]

Jester, you had NO IDEA how true that was! XD

[@Piemasta9000]

I love how Matt managed to make me feel bad for Celiea (no idea how to spell her name) still laughed my ass off

[@StormageddonTMS]

Seelya

[@michaelfinnerty7240]

Celia

[@uhkingdom]

imagining her all scraped up, still dirt up and down her body, trying and failing to throw a golden dick that's stuck to her hand as her God and his High Priestess egg her on to just throw the thing already. imagining each one of her sad throws as she tries to maintain composure and not cry. lol legitimately makes me sad to think about.

[@applesauce4389]

I mean, they did bully the hell out of that woman. She's kind of a bitch, but a dick that's stuck to your hand forever? That's just cruel.... funny as all hell, but totally unwarranted

[@randomcourier]

When i originally seen this episode, i thought she was gonna attempt to push jester into the volcano, so initially i was on beaus side.

[@Kachompsky]

The look on Matt's face at 6:57 I mean oh my god

[@Tank1711]

This needs to be a Sam T-shirt 🤣🤣

[@emobitch1027]

If you didnt know he was laughing before this you would think he was upset and crying lol

[@willnelson9906]

i still hope, one day, keyleth meets the M9, and artagan shows up while they're talking, and it becomes this incredibly tense standstill where artagan sweats actual fucking bullets while kiki barely restrains herself from murdering the shit out of him

[@elizabethkblanco4620]

What did he do to Vox Machina?!

[@willnelson9906]

@@elizabethkblanco4620 do you want spoilers? yes or no?

[@willnelson9906]

@@elizabethkblanco4620 eh fuck it, i'll tell you anyways, artagan was a bit of a, tricky fellow for VM, he got them into lots of trouble in the feywild, and one of his demands when they asked for his help, was to strangle vax to death, cause vax was a revenent, and he'd come back, but still.

[@deathbykonami5487]

@@willnelson9906 Oh so the strangling moment happened after Vax was resurrected as a revenant?

[@willnelson9906]

@@deathbykonami5487 yeah the entire thing was "oh you want my help, well i'll ask to strangle your friend/brother/husband because i always wanted to strangle a guy, and it'll be no biggie cause he'll come back" and they had to agree

[@karldubois5821]

seeing Sam laugh that hard brings me so much joy. He usually never laughs that hard because he always wants to add on to a joke to enhance it but we only get that Sam laugh once in a blue moon

[@ChrisTay229]

I never knew I needed to see Matt say "I'm the final dick" with such manic energy on his face

[@cinnabonbons]

Tragedy that we didn’t get a hard cut to Artagan’s reaction when Beau tackled Celia.

[@Keshire]

I like to believe Matt's unbridled laughter was Artagan's reaction too. And the "Traveler Con was everything I hoped it'd be" was in-character.

[@ClaireDuhLune]

108 was such a hype episode to watch live. This is the first one I fully stayed up until 4am for.

[@alycias7345]

same

[@yeapeeplz]

4:57 making sam break is such a rare achievement that's how you know this moment is one for the books

[@Kaiser8361N]

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who thought she was gonna jump lol

[@Myrilia]

Yes!! I was screaming at the screen and my boyfriend was like "what?" 😂

[@whoanellynelnel3874]

I have never laughed so hard, I couldn't breathe! Thank you Marisha, what a way to add a cherry on top of an already brilliant scenario:)

[@mrraisbeck]

' I might've misinterpreted your actions ' gets me everytime

[@DCdabest]

Celia. The new BBEG.

[@kaitlynwickham6237]

"We have all made an enemy that will kill us all tonight. She will be the end of us." Taliesin calling it now.

[@ShatoraDragondore]

Her and Sprinkle

[@jerseyhammer1951]

Love how no one other that Travis understands the concept of a "decleater" tackle.

[@rimurutempest4945]

I feel so bad for her, I’m also realizing how many people they’ve really screwed over by accident ahahahaha

[@itsnochi9447]

god i would kill to see a m9 screwing ppl over compilation🤣

[@qwertyuiop42385]

I was also sweating bullets during the Jester-Celia catfight. Made me want to crawl under my couch.

[@apassionatenerd.3564]

Has anyone put together a list of NPC's they've accidentally screwed or pissed off? Because it feels like theirs a new one every 5 to 10 episodes at least lmao

[@d4rkwolf]

That was straight up a Miss Congeniality scene 🤣🤣🤣

[@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi]

It's even funnier when you know that in the context of things they were talking about how much they feared the possibility of human sacrifice.

[@AnimeWolf5193]

This has to be in contention for funniest episode of M9 (possibly even all of Critical Role). XD

[@timmara3296]

Celia will be back. Sprinkle with recruit her, they’ll team up with the bad luck bandits and free Halas. The day of reckoning is coming for the Nein

[@lmtnemesisgamer3707]

I've never seen Matt so laugh hard!

[@ShatoraDragondore]

the three way bolder parchment shears

[@danielstephens1185]

In situations like this, or Shiver and Quiff, the botched Boulder Parchment Shears three-way, etc, I wish we could see crew reactions. Wouldn't be surprised if Dani Carr fell over laughing.

[@alycias7345]

i wish you included the moment when sam mentioned that the only thing that would get it off was a wish spell. i died.

[@mountainridge22]

Traveler con is the disaster we needed in 2020

[@johnthaxton9235]

Next time we see Celia she'll be missing a hand or have one covered in gold. Cause it's tough to do things with a hard thing in your hand. Dont ask how I know.

[@Stellermeerkat]

Much like Star Wars, Critical Role can't go too long without someone losing a hand.

[@WulfPriest]

The best part of this joke is on Halloween. Blonde Bob Marisha is hot

[@ryceborzym1402]

You can tell she wasn’t paying attention to any of the ceremony

[@amberpdavis]

Bless you Nico this made my night

[@deckssays]

Missed opportunity with marisha to read his stats

[@Comicsluvr]

When I see the thumb and everyone is a rosy pink color from laughing, I HAVE to click!

[@calebthecondor]

4:40 ok Matt knew what he was doing

[@confloashton3617]

My Conquest paladin would do something similar, but he would go all out with divine smite and a smite spell, to him it would be both a punishment and a threat. He wouldn't go for the face though... he's not a monster.

[@ryzekiv7147]

These are the moments when I wish my ADD wouldnt prevent me from watching full episodes

[@daviddodson8922]

Wow they have made an enemy that will follow them to hell just to make them suffer forever more. I imagine her name being spelled "See'leah" for some reason. Nevertheless that's bbeg material right here. Or at least a quality side threat.

[@jonasgrant]

In a thousand years, people will think the Traveller was a fertility god worshipped by phallic iconography.

[@imbtyler]

omfg I am crying so hard rn

[@giovannymorales8761]

I feel bad for her.

[@harumaru4205]

is the Beau tackle going to be the goldfish of campaign 2?

[@unvoicedapollo3318]

No. The goldfish was pure dumb on the player's part Considering the talk of human sacrifice & Matt describing Celia as having "finality", there's plenty of reason for character/players to think she was going to throw herself in.

[@verdurite]

@@unvoicedapollo3318 it was also a bad ruling on matt's part (technically) since fall damage caps at 20d6

[@unvoicedapollo3318]

@@verdurite I would argue DM purview

[@deffdefying4803]

@@unvoicedapollo3318 I mean when you reach terminal velocity you aren’t going to get much splattier when you hit the ground. Capping fall damage makes sense.

I really hope that celia is the bbeg

[@brandonmarvel9107]

Yeah i get that you highlight the funny moments. But holy shit the best moments of this episode were the intervention of the Moonweavers disciples

[@nojusticenetwork9309]

This moment was hilarious but I legit felt bad cuz she got maliciously bullied just because she was kind of bitchy.

[@deffdefying4803]

D&D, where you get to live out the fantasy of fucking someone over when they lowkey deserve it, without real world repercussions.

[@nojusticenetwork9309]

@@deffdefying4803 I mean, she really didn't deserve THAT. She was a bit of haughty sure, but she wasn't terrible. Her only real "crime" was not being nice to a group of strangers and Jester basically being jealous and feeling like her position in the Traveler's eyes was under threat.

[@LordVader1094]

@@nojusticenetwork9309 I mean M9 have murdered people horribly and done all kinds of terrible shit. This is pretty lowball for them. She was lucky to get away with just humiliation and some scrapes lol
