Hitman 2 Escalation: RUIN THE GARDEN PARTY! (Let's Play Hitman 2 The Covert Dispersal Escalation)

[@alicehancock1]

"They're all murder basements if you try hard enough" is peak Jane in this

[@andymcp4752]

The explosive pen is the most versatile ICA creation yet, not only does it explode but you can stab with it "Does it work as a pen?" No..

[@kallasantysanty6092]

So you can ... write ... with a pen????? WOOOOW ... :D

[@Riprie]

Too bad you can't actually use it as a melee weapon in the game. Wish it was so versitile in the game. And it is not the ICA invention by the games lore its a Kronstadt Industries creation.

[@interregnum_]

I'm less surprised that sushi is made with black magic than I am that this is the only black magic 47 has bothered to learn.

[@toe_sucker_4165]

Headcanon: magic is a well-known phenomenon in the Hitman universe, but it's vastly less practical than just using technology, so nobody learns it. This is the explanation behind every Easter Egg and the ghost in (iirc) Blood Money

[@mrcephalopod]

I don't know about "only" black magic. You can't tell me that hitman vision has a scientific explanation...

[@nickjeffery536]

Remind me never to invite Andy "I'm a party guest, I'm allowed" Farrant to any of my parties...

[@mattd3224]

Nick Jeffery the man did bring a gold bar as a gift. So he’s invited to all my parties/weddings/funeral.

[@junpeixix]

Nick Jeffery Better than Mike; at least Andy won’t be an uninvited guest to a party that later turns out to be a funeral for a 100.

[@charlescannon2469]

Maybe we invite Jane "of The Jane Protocol" Douglas. Dang fun people don't always make good party guests do they?

[@CaitlinRC]

Imagine 47 enjoying a muffin. Just say in a cafe, completely furious, eating a chocolate chip muffin just going: "Diana this is delicious."

[@gruggerduggerhoose]

Caitlin RC Being absolutely raging and eating muffins isn’t just a hobby. Its a lifestyle.

[@thisisodsmith]

"Diana. It is Muffin Time."

[@dallydaydream]

"Diana you absolutely must tell me the recipe."

"Welcome 47, your assiment for today is to get a muffing for everyne in the office. I've send you the list, check your phone. And please do not kill the muffinman this time ..."

[@spiritousgore6153]

Oh man, I was unaware of the extent of my party guest privilege! I haven't been partying to my full potential. Thanks for the PSA, guys!

[@Icam_here]

Andy: if you don't want people going into your attic you shouldn't invite them to parties Me: so accurate, I don't know why the police didn't listen

[@FawnGesicht]

Andy "I think that probably impacted your score" Mike.. "well so did lots of things" Lol...

[@preciousrogue1833]

I did the first two levels of this today while dressed as a flamingo. I couldn't resist after they put 'Covert' in the title.

[@CucumberSadness]

Do you know the muffin man? Who killed my entire family?

[@dontmindme5879]

The muffin man that the gingerbread man was trying to warn us about

[@Shado_wolf]

Yes I know the muffin man

[@TruthOrDare22]

22:46 "...aanndd just for the halibut" Jane you are my absolute favorite. XD

[@hannahweber]

Starting to wonder if the lack of parties my family had was to keep hitmen from having free reign of our house....

[@author_n_wilson2983]

"The Wilsons? Sounds like a made up name to me." That in-game dialogue near the beginning of the video was uncalled for, I feel personally attacked :(

Assination? Sign me up girl.

47's amazing shirt reminds me of Andy's black floral-ish shirt he has been wearing of late, and I'm here for all of it. The height of fashion!

[@error9033]

Developers: We've crafted an elaborate escalation mode where we introduce more and more complex tasks for players to complete. OutsideXbox: Collect some muffins and drop them off after we kill the targets for a laugh.

[@bhull242]

Also dropping gold bars and stealing soda after the murder for reasons.

“I’m a party guest, I’m allowed.” - Andy Farrant, Oxbox, 2019

[@drewworth1568]

A wine cellar is ABSOLUTELY a murder basement, have you even read Cask of Amontillado?

[@markoooo3458]

Your comment deserves a million likes

[@Technoir444]

‘ I don’t have a free standing bath tub, my life is meaningless’ ... Jane, I feel your pain.

[@KEVMAN7987]

But then you have to clean under the tub too and it's a whole thing.

[@JohnZ117]

That's nothing. I'm too tall for my tub to be anything other than an extra long shower stall.

[@bhull242]

At least y’all _have_ bath tubs. All I have is one shower for a five-person family.

[@MetabolicSpore0]

Note to self: Never invite OXBOX to a party. Worst... Guests.... Ever.

[@flusendieb6833]

they're not that bad: they brought gifts, didn't drunkenly throw up on anything and even did all their killing outside so there'd be no need for a carpetcleaning afterwards

[@nioteb]

@@flusendieb6833 And you have to admit, they're quite good at getting rid of unwanted gests. I'd give them a 2 to 4 stars review.

[@madalice5134]

Didn't we learn that during the Heist Society Oxventure?

[@dallydaydream]

Favourite type of party: this one, where I get to watch shenanigans without leaving the house

[@Se7en2107]

I like the theory about the client just being the host who wants people to leave but feels way too awkward to ask so they just hire a hitman instead. Totally relate.

[@mikaroni_and_cheez]

Rest in piece, Kevin. You were the life of the party.

[@mfrazier3876]

Hooray Mike’s back! Wait a second... *Gasp* He suggested the muffin-ing of the car? *AND* he got more than one star? Who is this fraud in our car-loving chaotic Mike’s place?

[@maxvel0city906]

Muffins, exploding pens. I guess that's how the COOKIE CRUMBLES!

[@nickjeffery536]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Boo.

[@dontmindme5879]

*far in the distance* boo.

22:22 Andy serenading us with those sick persona 5 beats

[@voltzoen6262]

So a pen IS mightier than a sword. Especially an explosive one.

[@kallasantysanty6092]

In hands of 47 even a muffin is deadly :)

"It's like doing an assassination in a Sims house" - flashback to the time Jane tried to drown the oxbox Sims in the pool

[@MetabolicSpore0]

10:15 I imagine Jane has the same problem fighting her instincts when passing the controller.

[@supershinigami1]

This escalation is genuinely so easy and yet they made it so difficult for themselves.

[@MSte21]

I love how you guys made up a whole art forgery story out of whole cloth. :D The truth's much simpler, and more hilarious. Though an art forgery operation in the suburbs is a great idea.

Well, what is it?

@@alabastergiant The husband's a romance novelist and the wife's a government agent. He just keeps it on the down low for reasons. And the wife paints as a hobby, not any nefarious forging purposes.

[@theDFAJ]

i can’t believe andy made a persona 5 reference. this is what i needed in my 2019

[@Safiyahalishah]

17:25 That meta loading screen tip though. The game knew Mike was holding the controller.

'They're all murder basements if you try hard enough' -truly words to live by, Jane

47 just did an EAT an RUN

[@icantthinkofanythingclever1802]

“ You can’t just have a raw fish sitting on a plate” that is the definition of what sushi is.

To be fair, you also need some other stuff like seaweed or rice.

*clears throat* I'll just leave this here :3 notice me senpai!!!! First verse: muffin second verse: agent 47 xP "last resort" parody by Free Sample Muffins ft agent 47 get broken into pieces this is my last resort into fractions no kidding don't give a F@!% that I'm gonna die feeding (guitar solo) (muffin) get broken into pieces I-am-the past-ry you can afford free-sample-muffins for eating don't give a fuhh if i die in one sitting do you even care what's in my filling? it could be moist, it could be dry grab-a-piece and take-a-bite chances are that you might cut to perfection fractioned right for sharing with friends by your side soon as you take a bite i'll be blowing your mind the flavor-explosion will bring you delight after that bite and blown out mind it's those taste buds that will ignite (agent 47) i realized the party was soon set to begin S@!t it's to late and wallet was empty within Quickly! free sample muffins I'll take with me within won't look foolish when I step on in to this potluck to where I wandered over None for myself Just some for the others searching to find the food on a higher level for example barbecue Burgers and Modelo''s (it's ALWAYS Modelo time @.@ Roast.)

Its only when you see the thumbnail for this video you realise Agent 47 used to look a lot like Kryten from Red Dwarf

[@dominateeye]

24:32 "More Hitman to come, always." The year is 2269...

[@Electroporcupine]

I think the reason the Real Estate Agent challenge and Party Mission Story popped is because they were achieved in a previous session on this map that was never completed.

[@aimlessarrow532]

Add "also you've shot someone else" to the Oxtra catchphrase archive

[@lewayprevis]

Missed opportunity there, Oxbox: Best kind of party? S CLUB PARTY!

[@Uniclonus]

That was an exceedingly basic escalation, but you three easily made it worth watching. Kinda surprised Jane didn't comment on the DNA rug in the one room. I'd have thought that would be the kind of decor she'd like.

[@fairyringdancer1234]

I get ridiculously excited when you all play Hitman.

[@rashkavar]

This escalation is much harder if you're going for stealth. Stage 3, in particular - the guy in the middle of the entire crowd is quite hard to isolate, even if you're just giving him an electrical phone.

[@neo_b]

more hitman!!! i can’t even tell you how much i love your hitman videos!!

[@AsbestosMuffins]

Me: Spent 6 hours doing the hitman 1 paris escalation with the stupid landmines Them: kill 2 guys anyway you want. man I see hitman 2 got a bit better balance

Having just watched IT 2 I keep expecting Pennywise to show up and be like "IVE MISSED YOU 47"

[@Se7en2107]

I, Georgie, am Mr. Tobias Rieper, also known as 47 the Dancing Hitman.

[@bhull242]

At first I thought you were saying you watched I.T. 2, and I was like, “What do computers have to do with anything?”

[@desmonddesjarlais2697]

it was a mighty nice thing you did. giving that guy a muffin before ending the video.

[@brocksisson7128]

Today I learned from OxBox that if i'm a party guest, I can do anything I want. Halloween and Christmas do's are going to be a lot more interesting now.

[@devangnivatkar2649]

I decided to complete this escalation myself while watching this video midway. I cheesed level 3 with the Emetic Dartgun, Emetic Explosive (in a briefcase) and Electrocution Phone.

[@oynque8965]

Agent 47 only thinks he's home free after he gets on the bus. It's actually the same bus from the "Bus Simulator" video of a couple of weeks ago.

[@laurasaurus7399]

I think what we've learned from this is that you should not invite Andy to a party unless you've hidden all your valuables or embarrassing items away!

[@Alsebra]

The Summer Suave Suit has major Max Cady/Waylon Mercy vibes...

[@BrawlerClaws67]

Jane: I should kill the other guy first because killing the first guy with an exploding pen will cause chaos. Also Jane: I wanna explode the propane flask! Gotta love classic oxbox Hitman.

[@delugesofgrandeur]

I was absolutely hoping Mike would bean someone with a muffin on the way out, he did not disappoint!

[@jameswoods6839]

I never thought of placing a fish on the grill. Its crazy youd think they'd make it a challenge. Fingers crossed for the future

[@ladynightmare_13]

Is it just me or did their third target look an awful lot like the guy they’d just subdued in the mission previous? 😂😂

[@ladynightmare_13]

Dastvan, thank you. That’s the joke. 😂

[@kallasantysanty6092]

I would love to see Mike leaving a party like that, crouch run, with a soda can i hand :) But i doubt he would wear a shirt like that, not even to fancy party like that (one gold bar to even get in ... wow, just wow :P).

The 3rd guy looks like Bill S. Preston Esquire!! Lifes been rough for him since the break up of Wyld Stallyns.

[@johnoneil9188]

Explosion goes off, a guy flies through the air and balloons go up. That´s Mike in a nutshell.

[@AngelBeatYunara]

That sure was a parting shot at the party!

[@donburn9768]

The subtle OCD annoyances of someone playing a game on a livstream and you know the exact solution to their problem 4:32 Simply switch shoulder view and BOOM HEADSHOT!

[@donburn9768]

And he did it but because he was about to be spotted (by the guy that would be dead in less than a second) Plan is no good.... Whaaaat?

[@bhull242]

Y’know, if Mike had closed the gate first and had gone for a neck snap rather than a gunshot, he could’ve gotten three or four stars! It’s not as good as the Chef Elusive Target from HITMAN, but this could’ve been his best assassination in HITMAN 2.

[@Fenrisaconite]

Party guests are like vampires, once you invite them in they can whatever they want.

More Hitman! Yay!

[@docette2015]

I thought you guys had already demonstrated the magic sushi? Or did I watch Hitman 2 from someone else at some point? O.o At any rate, nice short but sweet escalation -- sometimes, it's just a case of murdering some guys WITHOUT a bunch of restrictions. And with an exploding pen that launches the body in a hilarious manner. XD And I love that Mike took the time to throw one last muffin at a dude before leaving. Couldn't go without getting compromised, eh Mike? XD

[@Agamemnon2]

This is not a very good escalation, but this was a very good Hitman video. :) I am a bit amused that you didn't realize that luring the first target into the basement stairwell was super easy and keeps him hidden
