izzy roland losing it on never stop blowing up for 5 minutes

[@sevansnake369]

knowing that this season is a love letter from brennan to izzy makes this even funnier like. u ever give ur wife a gift so good it almost sends her into early labor?

[@aimeepollock2943]

I know Brennan can’t wait to be a dad, but I hoped he wouldn’t induce early labor.

[@Ellioomus]

I never knew she was pregnant so when i found out she was it was because of this campaign and i also found out it was essentially a lover letter for her so for 30 fuckin minutes i was SOBBING.

[@ethanhorn6093]

Wysocki having to look Izzy in the eyes and being like "with empathy love and respect you have been falling apart for 20 minutes" is in my top ten greatest things ever.

[@AAARRRGGGHHHHHH]

I was already trying to hold off an asthma attack from laughing so hard then Jacob comes out with this comedically perfect line - I think I blacked out for a moment.

[@LiaaaaaaaaAAAAAHH]

For context, they are throwing this grenade down a hotel hallway at 30 30 year-old acrobats who are doing 15mph backflips towards them. Wild season.

[@maxsucksmyass]

And none of the players have a d20 or a d100 either, its gonna get insane when they do

[@cinnabonbons]

And it’s only the 3rd episode.

[@samminicksm]

Izzy being so heavily pregnant and dying laughing so much so that Brennan is worried for their daughter because Izzy clearly isn’t gonna get enough oxygen for the both of them laughing that hard took me out. 😂😂😂

[@emilyredman5164]

"are you jack manhattan?" "no" "then i don't know!!!" is my favorite moment 😭😭😭😭😭

[@ChargerBulldogs19]

Followed by Izzy like 10 minutes later interrupting a totally unrelated scene when she realizes she genuinely forgot that she is Jack Manhattan

Ally being the Emily of this season is absolutely sending me.

[@ethanhorn6093]

I love that for them.

[@SuperAdventuretime10]

Brennan lee “I will chase you down any rabbit hole” mulligan at work here😂

[@DLSacks]

Ally knowing Brennan well enough at the table to call him on his insane scientist ret-conning with the gymnastics super soldiers was something special. Brennan never missed a beat ("You think that this guy has deceived the other sidewinders"), but they knew it when they saw it. To be fair, I'm guessing Brennan had the gymnastics super-soldiers and scientist guy in mind separately for somewhere in the campaign, but the characters spent 45 minutes of actual play-time buying shirts.

[@emilysmith2965]

I feel less alone in my desperation to get my players to focus on ANYTHING else, knowing that it also happens to Brennan. “THESE ARE THE SHIRTS WE HAVE” 😂

[@SweetPeaPD]

To make a pregnant woman laugh so hard she fully pisses is so funny (but maybe not that difficult) 😂 I have loved Izzy so much this season, shes having the time of her life and that joy is so contagious

[@gastonmarian7261]

"You have been falling apart for 20 minutes" bruh 😂

[@jimmy_the_squid9456]

Izzy's laugh is so joyous and pure

[@WadjetEye100]

I just love Rekha asking so earnestly, “Do you think you’ll roll lower than 62 though?” 😂

[@flfb]

I can never get over her little shimmy when Brennan says she can have a grenade

[@davidmcguire8041]

I was listening to this at work in headphones and laughed so hard my boss came to see if I was okay because my face had turned “an alarming shade or red”.

[@jaelawest3675]

I was crying along with Izzy 😂😂

[@avalonshort2337]

I think the moment she pees herself is when Brennen says "It's time for Daddy to have some fun!" at 3:51 - because right after she says "shit" between wheezes of laughter

[@PaulaHoell]

Omg well spotted!

[@Newgodlove]

😂

[@SweetPeaPD]

She posted on her insta and yes this is the exact moment she pisses me off

I've been meaning to watch this one, and now i absolutely MUST.

[@effieess2776]

I literally almost died watching this because I made the mistake of eating a tootsie roll during it

[@rocknrollvamp]

What I love about this season is the characters are meant to be INSANE and the players are being just that…INSANE!

[@MadsRott1976]

Thank you for putting this together!

[@GiantButterKnife]

I want to imagine a world in which Brennan made Izzy laugh so hard she did actually go into labor and was forced to have their daughter in The Dome.

[@emilise284]

Izzy did tell Sam she would be willing to give birth on Game Changer, so...

[@Craignado]

“WE CAN’T HAVE OUR CHILD IN THE DOME!”

[@rosenrot234]

Aw I'm wicked outta the loop. I didn't know Izzy was pregnant. Good on them.

[@Wosprig]

Brennan announced their daughter’s birth back in January in a fireside chat for Worlds Beyond Number back in January! It was so deep in a bit that some people were confused if it was real or not for a while-easy to miss if you’re not subbed to WBN

[@hoodiesticks]

I found out from the comments of Very Important People shorts. Izzy got a costume that had a bajillion things to draw attention away from her belly, but people still commented on it.

[@rosenrot234]

[@SweetPeaPD]

@@hoodiesticksI mean she did comment on it too, saying it was one of the favourite things she’s done with her little sidekick in utero

[@CarrieMookBridgman]

And the great thing about it is that both parents know how to be funny without being snide or mean. What a gift to give a child.

[@AlexanderFaux]

This episode is basically sheer chaos

[@Adj4ni]

Izzy losing her shit makes me laugh/cry about every episodes at this point.

[@AJeanineHui]

This was only episode 3; can't wait for the insanity in the rest of the episodes

[@RiverRocks335]

Genuine question, is she ok? Her energy is tap dancing on the edge of insanity and i can’t tell if that’s the bit or if she’s actually dying.

[@KitkatandLizzard]

Lol, she's fine, just having a great time. She's heavily pregnant this season and action comedies are her favorite genre -- I imagine there isn't a lot she can do to control the laughter!! She's had the baby now and is thriving ^^

[@klandgraf6956]

Izzy and Brennan’s baby is probably like “kick their ass mom” and also thinking “wtf is happening out there” Also laughing so hard you cry is there anything better

[@IsiahTomas]

This is a very strange sentence.

[@riley40]

The grenade part always confused me - wouldn't Izzy just roll for how much damage her freaking bomb does and the acrobats roll a Tough check? Why did she have a 68 Weapons check lol

[@dreamy_error]

the acrobats rolled that high because they started with a D20, blew up, and when the players asked "now what do you roll? a d100?" he did exactly that. so, 68 that izzy had to match/beat with the grenade.

[@ChargerBulldogs19]

She’s also 8 months pregnant here so hormones and pregnancy brain are off the charts

[@Morgan_BC]

She’s always out of character, she doesn’t know her characters name, she pulled a gun on a hotel clerk who was rude then was snippy at a character for shoplifting. I love Izzy. But this has been a really weak season for her, I totally understand someone being very hormonal and late into a pregnancy may not want to take a ttrpg seriously, to just do whatever sounds fun and not really care about character or lore stuff. I just have difficulty enjoying watching it, especially when Ify tried to address in character that she was being insane and she just roleplayed crying until he relented 😭

[@PaulaHoell]

Idk so far everything she's playing seems quite straight forward to me. Her character is a recently divorced menopausal woman who forgot the name of the character she was forced into. Projecting Izzy's pregnancy on her going a madder route than usual doesn't seem logical to me. Also, this is the season where everyone is allowed to go ape shit, so maybe that's just not the vibe of game or story you enjoy watching?

[@BALTHAZAAR58]

No, this all seems like pretty consistent characterization to me. Imagine a recently-divorced, sexually-frustrated Karen suddenly became a "loose-cannon" cop and this is what you get: a petty, overly-sensitive, trigger-happy mess.

[@emilysmith2965]

She’s playing a 50-something divorcée; her behavior in character has been TOTALLY consistent with that. Honestly this kind of whinging makes you sound sexist, and it also shows that you don’t have a professional’s appreciation for which parts of the game actually make it funny. Jack Manhattan doesn’t matter. He’s an archetype. He’s the Die Hard guy. How often do you hear people say “John McClane” as opposed to “oh, that was in Die Hard”? Answer: you don’t. The genre of action movies IS the character this season. Deal with it.

[@DavZeugme]

@@BALTHAZAAR58 "Stop. I can only get so erect" meme.

[@artforbagels5039]

saying all this for a season with just 3 episodes out not even considering the fact that this middle aged divorcee has just been transported into the body of a muscley head-on detective is so wild to me. also other players have done wilder shit in other seasons. why can't you let this woman have fun

Hats off to the editor and camera "person" when "Dang" gets shot in the neck and everyone screams the dramatic zoom. 🤌 Well done. Fantastic work.
