​@@KelpTheGreat - I think the idea is that she's still giving a fake name so these "confessions" are those of a character separate from her.

Grant does an incredible Gilbert Godfried impression and then immediately follows it up with the worst Bane impression anyone has ever done.

[@SuperEagle112]

I have a theory about Katie. Early in her improv career, she discovered that she had an above average ability to not break. Either she discovered it or a well loved mentor took her aside and shared that fact. What we see now is the katana she forged over a decade plus of people trying to get her to laugh. She’s a real life superhero. I’m a 38 year old father of three girls and I want to be like her when I grow up.

[@annoloki]

Either that or she's actually really really sad inside... and has chosen a career in comedy, like when a gay guy gets married to a super hot model. "How can he be gay? Have you seen his wife? Wow!" ya know, that kinda thing haha

[@blazerheata6479]

@@annoloki based on her interactions on other shows on Dropout, Katies just naturally chill I suppose lol. Very quiet kid in class energy.

[@NoseyParkerxD]

I reckon I could take her on. I remember back in school Drama class we had a similar thing and I was undefeated. I've done it with my partner and afterwards she just sad it scared her 😂 idk, it's just a switch in my head I guess

[@romxxii]

CH had a few BTS videos of some of their Hardly Working sketches, and in one of them you can see Katie breaking about as much as a trained comedian not named Grant O'Brien. Unfortunately, I think those videos are gone since the channel where they uploaded it (CH2) has been rebranded into the official Um Actually channel.

[@SuperEagle112]

She probably had them scrubbed to preserve her dominance.

[@esleynopemos3470]

Grant coming outta nowhere with that Gottfried impression. He may have lost by the rules of the game, but that scene won him the moral victory (which is surprising, as Grant winning the moral *anything* is unusual)

Katie is just on a different level. Stellar drunk performance as well!

I came here to say the opposite. It was a really mediocre drunk impression, and I've seen her do a far better drunk in other sketches. Part of me wonders if she took not laughing too seriously and it impacted the comedy.

[@TakaComics]

I was expecting Grant’s impression to crash and burn into a hilarious break, but he knocked it out of the park.

There’s two types of Katie not breaking: the first is when she’s completely got control of herself and is able to keep her cool. The second is when she very obviously is trying to hold back laughter and she recedes into what I can only describe as a ketamine-induced trance
