Mother, I bring news from the womb

[@MrPingn]

I don't think he ever thought he'd say such words.

[@hawkeye4205]

This honestly sounds like a lyric from a rap song. Get on it Mr. Riegel.

The way Marisha delivered "It is done" was perfection.

[@anonymousvids2146]

Was she Laura, or Mrs. Adams?

[@thebeeislost]

@@anonymousvids2146 I WAS THINKING THAT EXACT THING!

[@whatiswhat8061]

Just like laura's baby

Absolutely agree. She nailed it!

[@thestarlightforge6568]

“I love you Momma Willingham.” “B a i l e y” 😂😂😂😂😂

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

That was an expertly crafted Brick Joke.

[@Anniebobanny]

I love how Marisha goes for the “Lust” voice as Laura’s standard speaking voice.

[@worldcitizen3371]

Laura Bailey as played by Marisha Ray as played by Morticia Adams.

[@ZukoHalliwell]

*Addams

[@stealthlock6634]

Some points. . Talisien’s epic opening narration, followed by his collapsing in laughter upon Sam’s portrayal of Travis . Marisha’s perfect characterization . Matt’s face after “I don’t need to sleep, ever” (perfectly in-character) . Matt’s alarming off-screen crying . Matt’s deep “news from the womb” voice, followed by advertiser voice . Liam dying of laughter during Matt’s part Edit: Also love Talisien’s facepalming as he realizes what’s about to go down. AND poor Liam’s part was so normal, but he did it so well. “A real job, Dad!”

[@augustusegg7324]

I do not believe Matt was in-character while saying "I don't need to sleep, ever."

[@AJSZodiac]

The fact we never got a reaction video from Laura+Travis is a shame.

[@WardNightstone]

...now think about what it's gonna be like getting bedtime stories from parents who are voice actors

[@Grim_Sister]

Talesin: thanks a lot, by the way. You’re the reason my character died

[@reeeyou]

Rolled a constipation check and found out she wasnt pooping but giving birth.

[@garretthaslam3869]

Man this was a good ad, crazy Molly died like 3 hours later. Also Marisha does a damn good cold reading.

[@bainbonic]

Matt: "I'll just throw out the next three weeks of story I'd planned out and rewrite everything to accommodate." *writes in Lorenzo*

[@myaccount611]

@MasterOfBaguettes it happened like a year ago. Dont go poking around the comment section if you dont want spoilers

[@TehBluPanda]

@@myaccount611 I'VE BEEN BUSY THESE EPISODES ARE HOURS LONG

[@ryanb.7751]

Jose Velez Usually I’m a defender of not spoiling shows, movies, or whatever else. Like someone spoiled it in the comment section of episode 19 on Geek and Sydney’s KZbin and I flat out pointed out how this show is different. But this is actually a situation that’s appropriate to talk about spoilers. If you are watching clips and highlights from future episodes you haven’t seen yet, then you should know you are in active danger of seeing them. If you don’t want to be spoiled, you should watch the show like everyone else has and not look up clips. Otherwise you will be awfully confused when Molly is talking in a really gruff, deeper, stoner voice.

[@aileenzhao7951]

Ahh it was this episode

[@hades8400]

I feel like Matt played the role of "Matt Mercer" a little too well... Hmm...

[@GregJonson]

It's always wonderful when you and your role become one.

Marisha channeling Mortisha Adams like a boss

[@tomon5598]

Denim Knight She’s just channelling her inner-Laura. The voice she had was the voice Laura uses for 85% of her characters

How has Travis not have killed Sam by now?

[@Dracobyte]

He is a very good friend!

@@Dracobyte that and he covered himself in blood.

[@adcon00]

Sam told Travis that if he died, he'd haunt Travis as a ghost

[@XcZeus3469]

Travis loves the nonsense (the masterdebater especially comes to mind). Laura, on the other hand, I'm amazed hasn't murdered him in his sleep.

[@ethanrajczak3041]

XcZeus3469 Laura has that scary Mom look. Even before Ronin.

[@WardNightstone]

...i mean this bit is technically Ronin's first IMDB credit if you think about it (as a character at least)

[@a_hipster_saxophone]

One day Ronin is gonna ask where babies come from and Travis is vonna show him this clip

[@Scufflegrit]

“Mother, I bring news from the womb” will always be one of the funniest things ever written.

[@Hearty1100]

Matt's "I don't need to sleep. . .ever" is so real it hurts

[@cryptowatcher5963]

Would be awesome if Ronin's first words were Mama & Willingham.

[@deffdefying4803]

When he says "Willingham" it wont be in a cutesy baby voice, it'll be in a deadly serious manly voice like Travis recently betrayed The Godfather

[@Anubis30224]

You know what? Sam and Liam will make that happen.

[@vishaansingh1019]

Wow, they're so good at giving their lines! You'd think they were actors or something...

[@WintersMinion]

Most of them did very well I just don't think Matt did very well at playing Mercer he really dropped the ball on that one. I think he needs to go back and study the part more to really understand what makes Mercer tick.

[@anonymousvids2146]

To the 6 people who don't get the joke, watch some anime from the 2000s, and 2010s..... Also Avengers Assemble

Can we take a moment to appreciate how Sam got Marisha to give birth to her husband?

the 3 dislikes are travis, laura and somehow their time traveling son

[@stugod5000]

man...Marisha should really voice poison ivy she could really pull it off

[@josiahparke2321]

The fact she used to panhandle as Poison Ivy on Hollywood Boulevard when she first came to LA really frames that as a perfect role for our druid queen. Such an amazing gal

[@thestarlightforge6568]

“I don’t need to sleep, ever” XDDDDD

[@Tavish_Studios]

Sooo Laura is a Shakespear or full English translation Anime character?

[@damobeck1]

Tavish dramatic.

[@deffdefying4803]

Ronin is an eldritch god and Travis is literally just a caricature of himself

[@TheCorrodedMan]

Laura became an actress from a 1940’s theatre, Travis became some mock up of Patrick from spongebob, and Ronin emerged with the voice actors gift of knowing how to *_SPEAK FROM THE DIAPHRAGM RATHER THAN THE THROAT_*

[@debaronAZK]

yes.

[@matthewward2058]

Sam may be a comedy genius but the rest of our Critical Role friends are just amazing, aren't they!!!

[@Pro_Butcher_Amateur_Human]

Marisha's performance reminded me a lot of Poison Ivy from the 90's Batman and Robin movie. Just her intonation and pitch, the way she spoke was very similar to Uma Thurman. And that is a huge compliment...for Uma Thurman.

[@Jc-587]

I’d say it also reminds me a lot of Morticia Addams

The second Taliesin hears the word "birth" he knew what was coming.
