Welcome to sorbet city news. I'm lead
0:12
anchor Jerry Garcia. Breaking news.
0:15
Dilly Dunker's, renowned ice cream maker and
0:18
leader of one of the most globally recognized brands,
0:21
has announced his retirement. With the nearing of
0:24
his company's 50th anniversary comes an even
0:27
bigger announcement. He's planning a final
0:29
farewell and passing the company on to one
0:33
lucky kid. Who will that kid be? Well,
0:35
that's the news story we will be adamantly following
0:38
in this coming day. In a seemingly
0:40
revolutionary PR move, the ice cream
0:43
satisfactory has packaged five silver
0:46
coins into randomly chosen Dilly Dunkers
0:49
frozen treats distributed throughout stores and
0:52
restaurants in Sorbet city. Any child or
0:55
teen who finds a silver coin is admitted
0:58
not only a once in a lifetime tour of the
1:00
Dillydunkas factory, but also has a chance
1:03
at being the lucky recipient of the entire
1:06
corporation all assets
1:09
and set in a place of leadership to manage
1:12
all future endeavors of the ice cream
1:15
empire. Who will the lucky five be? And
1:18
which one will quickly become the richest kid in the
1:20
world overnight? Well, that
1:23
remains to be seen. But when it is revealed, you
1:26
know, you'll hear it here at SCN. I'm
1:29
Jerry Garcia. Now on to the weather.
1:35
Welcome back to, uh, dilly Dunkers ice
1:38
cream satisfactory, a kids on bike one shot
1:41
created by myself, Skyler Gorsett, and it is inspired
1:44
by Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory. Uh,
1:46
whatever the case, I'm here with Cameron,
1:49
Ben, and Bart, each playing a
1:52
child that has received actually, I should probably just kind of go
1:55
into the kind of premise of this. I'll just do that from a narrative perspective.
1:57
All right, so the year is, uh, let's say
2:00
2024. Sure, because we're almost to the
2:03
end of this year anyways. It's 2023 currently.
2:05
Anything could happen then.
2:07
That's right.
2:07
Um, we're going to predict the future, guys.
2:10
Um, this is in a slightly altered universe. It's pretty much a
2:13
mirror of our own. Just the difference is that you guys all live in
2:16
the city together. Uh, the city's name
2:18
is Sorbet city in
2:21
the estate of New Gelato?
2:24
Yes.
2:24
It's going to be a lot of puns.
2:27
I'm just putting that out there.
2:28
Buckle up. Wait, hold on. Does new gelato imply that
2:31
there's an old gelato?
2:33
Not necessarily.
2:34
Or is old gelato just Italy?
2:37
It's very possibly just little Italy became its
2:39
own full state.
2:41
Why do I have to play in a role playing game about ice
2:44
cream treats in the middle of my, uh.
2:50
Shoulder towards the sugar free stuff, you know?
2:53
Yeah, exactly. So, in the sprawling capital of
2:55
Sorbet City, new Gelato is the headquarters of, uh,
2:58
one of the most well known frozen treat producers in the world,
3:01
dilly Dunkers ice cream satisfactory.
3:04
Well known for their wide variety of frozen treats and
3:07
flavors, they have swept the world by storm over
3:10
the five decades that they've existed. I'm glad I wrote
3:13
that down, because I'm going to have to reference that later. But with the
3:16
company's 50th anniversary coming up, has come with
3:18
it a major announcement that has shaken the world
3:21
as much as its milk quakes have the
3:24
retirement of Dilly Dunker, once a spry
3:26
young dairy man with dreams to make the world's most
3:30
creative frozen designs and delights. Now a
3:32
fragile image of his former self slowly fading away
3:35
on the frozen throne, he seeks to pass on to his
3:38
successor hopefully an equally imaginative
3:41
youth who can spark a whole new liveliness to his
3:43
brand. All right, so to help in the
3:46
search, uh, for the perfect individual to take over
3:49
his frosty factory, he slipped a silver
3:51
coin featuring an immaculate ice.
3:54
Cream sundae on it.
3:55
He slipped it into, uh, the packages of a variety of his frozen
3:58
treats. Uh, only five were handed out, and he
4:01
sent those off to, uh, find their
4:04
place in a child or
4:06
teenager's ice, uh, cream treat that they
4:09
purchased from the store. This would award the
4:12
finder with a tour of the Dilly Dunkers satisfactory.
4:15
Um, something no one, but required government
4:18
officials has ever gotten to see before. At the end of
4:21
this tour, Dilly Dunkers would choose his predecessor, who would
4:23
take over the operations of the factory, the branding of Dilly
4:26
Dunker's products, and, of course, all the wealth and money
4:29
and fame that comes with it. The winner would get to shape the
4:32
future of the company and be the leading figure in frozen
4:35
treats around the world. Each one of
4:38
you, uh, on some day, describe to me the moment
4:41
when you opened up that ice cream treat, what it was,
4:44
which I assume is probably your favorite ice cream treat,
4:46
and, uh, finding that silver coin. Cameron, do
4:49
you want to kick us off?
4:51
So in, uh, my parents Cracker Barrel, they
4:54
have an ice cream freezer
4:58
in the gift shop so people can get a little dessert on the way out.
5:01
And every day, uh, if he met his
5:03
quota is what he called it, he would give
5:06
himself an ice cream treat.
5:08
Sure.
5:09
As a reward.
5:10
No, his parents weren't giving it to
5:12
him. They already said you could have one.
5:14
Every day if he wanted one.
5:15
But he as, like, a
5:18
hardworking ethic. He would be like, if
5:21
I met my quota, I can give myself that ice cream
5:24
treat. And so that day, he earned that
5:26
butterscotch blast off, and he opened it up and he found a coin
5:29
in it, and he was like, this thing's ruined. So he
5:32
had to open a second one, uh, because
5:35
the first one's contaminated. As all good Cracker Barrel employees
5:38
would know, money cannot be mixed with food.
5:41
So, uh, he ate the second one. Then he realized that coin was actually that prize
5:44
that people had been talking about.
5:46
How exciting. Awesome.
5:47
Fantastic.
5:48
And so you're on your way to the ice cream
5:50
satisfactory. Uh, they're having a big, obviously, press
5:53
release, but we'll get to that. Here ben playing
5:56
kieran. What was the day like for you when
5:59
you opened that ice cream treat and found that coin inside?
6:02
Yeah. Um, it was actually at night
6:05
when it was nearing the end of the day,
6:08
uh, my parents were still working
6:10
late, so having to take care of my
6:13
little sister. We just got done with
6:16
dinner, and I went in the freezer, cracked open one of those small
6:19
pints of, uh.
6:20
Kit Kat cookie dough heck, yeah.
6:22
Um, and slipped in under the COVID
6:25
right when you pop it out. Fell
6:28
the coin to the floor.
6:29
Nice.
6:29
Um, and didn't know what it
6:32
was at first. Picked it up and kept examining it,
6:35
but sister only cared about the ice
6:38
cream. Ran up, jumped, grabbed the pint, and ran away like a
6:41
little gremlin, like.
6:44
Um, left you with just this silver coin.
6:46
Only after examining it did I realize, oh, this is the
6:49
prize they're talking about.
6:50
Awesome.
6:50
Fantastic.
6:51
All right.
6:52
Fantastic. And then Bart Bart,
6:55
what was, um, Philip Dipple doing
6:58
the day that he found his silver
7:01
coin in his ice cream treat?
7:03
Well, ironically, I didn't even know Dilly Dunkers
7:06
existed until I found that coin.
7:08
Oh, yeah.
7:08
Grandma's always hid the packaging from me.
7:15
She's like, you can have as many as you want and give as many
7:18
to your friends as you want. But we live on a dead end road in an
7:21
acreage on the outside of New Gelato. I don't have any
7:24
friends, so eventually,
7:27
I was going to be the only one to find it. I guess I'm lucky. But
7:30
now I know about dilly dunkers, and I can't wait to go see
7:32
the awesome.
7:33
Awesome.
7:34
So we're going to jump ahead to that very day when you guys all get
7:37
to finally go and see the factory. It's a big, huge PR
7:40
event. You've got hundreds of people kind of standing outside
7:43
the gates. You guys were all allowed
7:45
entrance, uh, people in the back,
7:48
this massive crowd. You've got tons of photographers and
7:51
paparazzi and members from the news, um,
7:53
every news station in the area, and probably some
7:56
from the bordering towns. And they are all
7:59
there, excited to finally get to see even just
8:02
a splinter of the operations of Dilly
8:05
Dunkers. They don't get to join you in this, but at least they get to kind of see, from
8:08
a distance, some of the exterior workings,
8:11
see Dilly Dunkers himself, all of that good stuff. But
8:14
you guys, you guys are all standing there, uh, awaiting
8:16
entrance. Um, standing next to you is two
8:19
other individuals. A little girl. Not a little
8:22
girl. I mean, she's, like, probably also a fresh teenager as
8:25
well. Um, she's wearing all pink clothing. She has a
8:28
tutu on. And, uh,
8:31
she's got her hair all, like, combed down.
8:34
Uh, bright blonde hair, maybe some
8:36
obscure, various bright colors kind of mixed
8:39
in with that bright colored hair. Um, and
8:42
she is currently
8:44
snacking on. Also a sugar
8:47
free ice cream pop. Uh, much
8:50
like Julian's or not
8:53
Julian sorry. Philip's favorite uh, treats.
8:56
And you guys actually recognize her because she is
8:58
somewhat of a local celebrity in the area.
9:01
She is Donna Devine and she is the daughter of
9:04
the well known Daphne Devine, who is a very
9:07
popular actress. Um,
9:10
obviously you can kind of get a sense that
9:13
Daphne has passed on her dramatic tendencies to her daughter
9:15
Donna because Donna seems
9:18
very uh at the moment she kind of looks a little
9:21
over know, she's looking around like, can.
9:23
We get this started already?
9:25
Um, that kind of type of person. And then standing off to the
9:28
side you see a kind um, of a
9:30
chubby little guy, um, by the name of
9:33
you've heard of him before. His name is Hogan Dos. I guess would
9:36
be an actual is.
9:38
He German by chance?
9:39
He seems like he might be, um,
9:42
potentially.
9:47
Like I said, he's a little chubby guy. He's got big chubby
9:50
cheeks. Uh, he's currently eating his way
9:53
through a uh I've got like a whole list of
9:56
ice cream bars so I get to bust those out.
9:58
If it's a hoaged off flavor, I'm going to lose.
10:00
It's not.
10:01
It's actually, uh, one of the most famous
10:04
ice cream treats. One of the first ice cream treats ever
10:07
created by Dilly Dunker's ice Cream Factory. And that is called a duck
10:10
fudger. It is a fudge sickle in the shape
10:13
of a duck. That's pretty much the extent of it.
10:15
But it was kind of something about the duck shape
10:18
really kind of blew it out of the water. And everybody loves him.
10:21
So he's sitting there munching on a duck fudger. Um,
10:24
all of you are excited to go inside and sure
10:27
enough, music, uh, starts to play as the
10:30
doors begin to open and outsteps a very
10:33
tall and lanky man. He wears a
10:36
sort of brown, uh, suit coat. Underneath he's
10:39
got a vest. Uh, his pants also kind of
10:41
a deep brown color. Not necessarily dark, but just a
10:44
very brown traditional brown. His shoes
10:47
also brown. But what really stands out is his
10:50
hair. Um, he's a very tall sort of
10:53
scrawny man. Scrawny arms, scrawny legs. His face even
10:55
is very narrow and thin. But his hair is in a
10:58
very uh, intense afro shape
11:02
and it's broken into like three different colors.
11:04
One side is like a chocolate brown. The middle is
11:07
sort of a pink strawberry color. And then on
11:10
the far left side, his afro becomes a sort
11:13
of uh, maybe lightly yellowed white.
11:17
Not um, eggshell obviously.
11:19
We got the neapolitan man.
11:21
Exactly. And he wears a top
11:23
hat as well. And he carries a cane
11:26
that at the top end of it, where you kind of hold on is an
11:29
ice cream cone. Um, not a real ice cream cone. It just
11:32
looks like an ice cream cone. And he comes walking out
11:35
he's a middle aged man for sure. Um, stepping
11:38
out onto down a red carpet as the music plays,
11:41
everybody's clapping, cheering, excited to finally see
11:44
the dilly dunkers. And as he
11:46
approaches the music, uh, he starts to kind
11:49
of like speak but you can't hear him over the music and he kind of looks
11:52
over and he's like, turn her down. Um,
11:55
and the music kind of cuts off in a really awkward way
11:57
and he turns to the rest of you.
11:59
And he says, hello, I recommend
12:02
that you take a step back.
12:04
And everybody kind of like, seems a little awkward.
12:07
Like this is the first thing this guy says after stepping out of his ice
12:10
cream satisfactory. This is one of the first times you see him. But
12:13
whatever. Eventually everybody takes a step back and you can see
12:16
being raised up, uh, on the top kind of
12:18
spire of the ice cream satisfactory is a giant
12:22
catapult. And for the kind of
12:25
arm and throwing section of the catapult, it's a giant
12:28
ice cream scoop, of course. And
12:30
inside of the scoop part you see a whole
12:33
you guys can kind.
12:34
Of just make it out, but it.
12:35
Looks like a whole bunch of little packaged frozen treats. And as
12:38
everybody takes one big step back, he
12:41
says fire. And uh, there's
12:44
a little dude you can kind of just see. He's a very
12:47
short, small man. Uh, he's wearing like a hazmat
12:49
suit and he sort of just pulls a lever and the
12:52
arm of the catapult fires and throws just
12:55
a whole bunch of various ice cream treats into the
12:58
audience. Who gets semi pelted with them?
13:01
Ah, yeah, they're frozen. That's going to
13:04
hurt.
13:04
Yeah. And you definitely get that impression as people start
13:07
going, um, they
13:09
don't hit you guys. Uh, he actually kind of approaches and he takes off
13:12
his hat and inside are a whole bunch of packed frozen
13:15
treats. Um, he's kind of standing there awkwardly as you guys are probably looking
13:18
behind you, I assume, uh, at the people getting pelted with ice
13:21
cream and kind of screaming in shouts of, uh,
13:23
upsettedness.
13:24
And he says probably um, should have.
13:26
Thought that one through a little bit more. Oh, well, uh, and
13:29
he says, hey.
13:30
Here'S one for you guys in a much nicer fashion.
13:32
And he holds out his hat and inside you find a bunch
13:35
of frozen treats. One for each of you. And ironically, you find
13:38
it is your three favorite frozen treats.
13:41
Five.
13:42
I guess if you include the other two.
13:45
I'm just going to hesitantly just
13:48
looking at him after seeing all that
13:51
pull my flavor out.
13:54
Sure.
13:55
Okay.
13:57
Fantastic.
13:59
Awesome.
13:59
Um, not sure if the rest of.
14:01
You guys are taking yeah, I'll eat
14:03
it.
14:04
Always in the mood.
14:05
All right, Julian's going to reach into his pocket and he's going
14:08
to pull something out. And then as he reaches to grab the
14:11
treat out of the hat, he goes oh, this one's for
14:13
you. And then he holds out a voucher
14:16
for a Cracker
14:19
Barrel.
14:19
He says trade.
14:21
And he grabs the ice cream bar out of it, and he hands the
14:24
voucher to Dilly Dunker.
14:26
Dilly, uh, Dunker just kind of, like, holds out his hat, like, put
14:28
it, tosses it in.
14:30
Ah. All right.
14:31
Never really had a trade before, but.
14:33
Sounds good to me. All right. Puts a hat back on. He
14:35
says, Well, I'm not much for idle
14:38
chatter.
14:39
Let's get this thing started. And just starts
14:41
walking back towards the door.
14:45
I guess we're following
14:48
the other two. They also look kind of awkward.
14:50
Uh, Donna. Uh, she goes, Is that
14:53
seriously, that's it fine. And she kind of
14:56
runs after as well. You, um, guys all step into
14:58
the sort of lobby area of the satisfactory, and
15:01
the giant doors close behind
15:04
you. There's, um, nobody in here at the reception,
15:07
uh, area. It, uh, seems almost
15:09
eerily quiet and empty.
15:11
And he says, all right, I'm not much
15:14
first introductions, uh, but I'm told it is
15:17
polite and good to do them, so we'll start things
15:20
off. Who, uh, are you exactly?
15:23
Oh, my, uh, name's Julian, partner.
15:26
Oh, all right. Fantastic.
15:28
That's all I really need to know.
15:29
Check that off the list.
15:30
And he pulls out, like, a little checklist, and he checks your
15:33
name off the list.
15:34
All right. And what about you?
15:36
Um, name's Karen O'mulligan.
15:38
Karen O'mulligan. All right. Check that one off the list. Fantastic. What about
15:41
you?
15:41
Hi, I'm Philip Dipple.
15:43
Philip Dipple. Fantastic. I'm going to check that one off the list,
15:46
all right? And then the other two of you. Um, my name is
15:49
Donna. I'm the daughter of Daphne. Uh, I didn't ask.
15:52
I'm just going to check you off the list.
15:54
And then, uh, finally the other little boy goes, the name's
15:56
Hogan.
15:57
Hogan Dos. All right. Good. Fantastic.
16:00
Shorter words. Wonderful.
16:02
All right, follow me.
16:03
And he just starts to lead you guys off again.
16:05
I guess if you have any questions, you can feel free to ask me,
16:08
but, um, let's just get this thing started, and it's probably the
16:11
better way to do this. Oh, by the way, uh, as we're doing this
16:14
tour, if you wouldn't mind.
16:16
Try, uh, to come up with, like.
16:17
Uh, what ice cream that you would invent. Uh,
16:20
there's sort of a taste at the end. Uh, it's written,
16:23
actually. It's presentation. We'll go with presentation.
16:26
And, uh, as he kind of walks down there, uh, Don
16:29
obviously leans over to one of you guys and goes.
16:30
I didn't know that there was going to be, like, homework.
16:32
Seems unfair.
16:33
What is this? Cool.
16:35
Um, he leads you guys into, uh, a
16:38
very large and sprawling gift shop.
16:40
And he says, I want to welcome each and every one of you
16:43
to one of the most useless pieces of my
16:46
entire satisfactory. As you can
16:49
tell, nobody's ever used this spot before. Because
16:52
we don't allow guests in here at the satisfactory. But,
16:54
uh, enjoy the fact that you guys get to be the first
16:57
people to step inside and purchase whatever
17:00
you want. With that being said, I will allow you
17:03
to take one thing that you want from this
17:06
gift shop for free.
17:08
And you guys kind of look around and you see all kinds of just
17:11
the classic things that you would see in a typical gift
17:13
shop. There's greeting cards and shot
17:16
glasses and mugs and
17:19
magnets and just about everything else.
17:21
And napkin rings.
17:22
There are napkin rings?
17:24
Nice.
17:25
Then that's what I'm I'm
17:28
going to glove up, look for some
17:31
that don't have defects or any marring or
17:34
anything.
17:34
Okay, fantastic. So, uh, one of
17:37
Philip's items that he has is a pair of very nice
17:40
white, pristine gloves. And you
17:42
put those on and you approach these napkin rings.
17:45
Um, Dilly Dunker kind of walks up behind you and he says, yeah,
17:48
they're.
17:48
Originally for napkins, but I found they work phenomenally
17:51
as cone holders.
17:54
As you kind of inspect them, you notice they're all in
17:57
pristine condition. The only thing is they're a little
18:00
bit dusty because gift shop has been completely
18:03
unused for who knows how many years. They've had it,
18:05
quote, unquote, open. Um, so that's really the only
18:08
issue with any of them. But otherwise,
18:11
no defects, no marks, no scratches,
18:14
nothing else.
18:16
Can I just have one or can I have two?
18:18
Well, I guess nobody's going to buy.
18:20
Them, so I guess you can have.
18:21
Two if you really want because I can store two. One in each glove in my backpack,
18:24
so they'll be safe.
18:25
All right, fine. Yeah, have it.
18:29
All right.
18:29
What about the rest of you? If you guys have any questions about anything else
18:32
that might be in here, feel free to ask.
18:34
Uh, any ice cream themed checkerboards.
18:37
Um, yeah, there's one of those. Um, it's
18:40
the classic staple at a cracker,
18:43
um, barrel, which is the little peg checker. Yeah,
18:46
it's one of those. Except instead of like, just regular pegs, of course they're
18:49
ice cream.
18:50
Huh.
18:52
Set I grabbed that sounds good.
18:55
Um, awesome. You take one of those jumping over
18:58
to, uh, Kieran.
19:00
Um, he's going to actually as the
19:03
other four walking around.
19:06
Mr.
19:06
Uh, dunker, sir. Yeah,
19:10
I'm not really one to just grab a lot
19:12
of souvenirs, but, uh, there was one
19:15
thing. I was hoping to maybe get a picture
19:18
with your dog, Fido. And
19:21
he's going to pull out the carton
19:24
that he just handed out. Like, um, he's
19:27
the face of Kit Kat cookie dough.
19:29
Oh, okay.
19:30
Um kit kat patty whack Give a
19:33
dog some dough.
19:34
Nice. Yeah, that's a little slogan that's on
19:37
this.
19:37
Ah, yeah.
19:38
Um, it's my little sister's favorite flavor.
19:41
And she just loves the look of your dog. I was wondering if I could
19:44
get a picture with him, if he's even.
19:46
Here at the factory.
19:48
Um, yes,
19:51
that'll actually be later in the tour. We'll go to
19:54
the animal, uh, let's call it the
19:56
bestiary is kind of what I've termed it.
19:59
Uh, which seems like an OD thing to have in an ice
20:02
cream factory.
20:03
But I assure you there's good reason for it.
20:05
Um, yeah, we can absolutely get that later. What
20:08
would you like in the meantime?
20:11
Uh, what's around the exactly. It's
20:14
actually been years, personally, since I've been in even a gift shop.
20:16
Yeah, no, that's fair. Um, okay, so like I said, there's a lot of
20:19
the generic stuff. You've got your mugs and your, uh, water
20:22
bottles. They even have, like, umbrellas, scented
20:25
candles, gloves, socks, scarves, ties.
20:28
He's just going to look for a sweatshirt.
20:31
Okay.
20:31
Yeah, absolutely.
20:32
One for his size.
20:34
Yeah, it's a little dilly dunkers one. It's got dilly dunker
20:37
on it. And he's, like, raising his staff. There's probably one for each of
20:39
the, uh, some of the ice cream.
20:41
Is there a more vintage looking one.
20:43
That has oh, yeah, absolutely.
20:44
Not his face.
20:45
Exactly.
20:45
But, like sure.
20:47
Like Dilly Dunker's ice cream factory.
20:49
Yeah, but like a retro.
20:51
Ah. Depending on how old this gift shop
20:54
is, they might all be vintage.
20:56
They might all be vintage.
20:57
Well, actually, so, interestingly enough, um, you grab
21:00
yours out of a clearance section, which is even
21:03
doubly ironic, because it's like, no one in here shops, so
21:06
whenever they just swap out old stuff, they just shove it in
21:09
a clearance. It's a massive clearance. The clearance
21:11
section.
21:12
The entire gift shop is the clearance section.
21:14
Yeah, exactly.
21:15
It has to be vintage. They have napkin rings.
21:18
Everything does have to be also, you said
21:21
50th anniversary of Dilly Dunker.
21:24
Right.
21:24
Dilly Dunker isn't middle aged then, is he?
21:27
Uh, yeah, I guess he would be a little bit later than that.
21:29
That's true.
21:29
He's probably in his 60s.
21:30
Yeah, because I'm like, wow, do people really just
21:33
live that long?
21:34
Awesome.
21:36
That's the power of ice cream.
21:37
The power of ice cream is the power of the fact that he started his
21:40
business 50 years ago. So it was like a shoe in to
21:42
succeed.
21:44
Fair enough.
21:44
You can start a business young. Back in the day, it was pretty easy, but
21:47
whatever the case, he says, awesome.
21:49
Uh, all right. Fantastic. Thank you all.
21:51
Uh oh, actually, let me get to, uh, what the
21:54
other two take. Uh, so Hogan Dos,
21:57
uh, he grabs a Dilly Dunker action
22:00
figure, and he says, cool,
22:03
and that's about it. Um, Donna, on the other hand, she's
22:06
going through anything that you can wear. She's
22:09
trying to pick, and she's going through
22:12
the hoodies and the jacket. All the new ones, though, she doesn't go over to
22:15
the clearance section.
22:16
Of course.
22:16
She's looking at the, uh, keychains, trying to find
22:19
something that would work. She's got, like, a backpack with a whole bunch of
22:22
various little charms and stickers and all kinds of other stuff.
22:25
On there.
22:25
And finally, she does settle on a little keychain of
22:28
a, uh, it looks like almost
22:31
like a little crocodile, but its body is
22:34
like the shape of a little taco, uh, shell. And you
22:37
realize it's a choco croco.
22:39
Choco croco.
22:40
There we go. A choco croco. And he ah,
22:43
that's ironic.
22:44
Um, that's all he says.
22:45
Very mysterious and strange. But anyways, uh, he
22:48
says, all right, on we go.
22:50
And as he leads you guys on, you guys come
22:52
across. Uh, there's sort of like a loud noise in
22:55
the background as you guys move over towards the next room.
22:57
And he says, all right, we're meant to go into what I call the
23:00
mint. It's where we print our mint. As you guys know,
23:03
we're pretty famous for our mint flavored ice creams. This is where
23:06
it comes from. I do ask, Please
23:09
do not touch the mint. It is not for
23:12
consumption. Anyways, let's go
23:14
in.
23:15
So he steps inside, and sure enough, inside there is a
23:18
massive series of different
23:21
what's the word I'm looking for conveyor belts and machines.
23:24
And as you guys watch, you guys see these
23:27
mint leaves. Um, like a whole plant almost. And
23:30
it kind of goes into one machine, comes out the other, where all
23:33
the leaves are kind of like nicely set out on the conveyor belt.
23:36
Goes over to another section. They get kind of pressed and
23:39
squeezed into a drier material. Um,
23:42
continue on from there and squeeze the juices out of it,
23:45
move on from there. There's like two separate ones now.
23:48
So you got the thing that's processing the mint
23:50
extract, and then you've got the rest of the plant that's being
23:53
processed as well. Um, and he says.
23:58
I love mint ice cream. And so I was trying to
24:01
find the absolute most delicious mint
24:03
plant on the planet.
24:05
And eventually I was able to find one way out in the
24:08
forests of.
24:09
I'm not going to say, um, it's kind of a very big
24:12
secret, but whatever the case, it only grows every hundred years.
24:15
So instead of waiting for more to grow, I came up with my own
24:18
cloning process and printers that can make copies of it.
24:21
So that's what you're seeing going on here. You can see the plants are being
24:23
cloned over here. Then they go through a process where I can
24:26
print out the leaves afterwards. It's pretty
24:29
cool. Uh, it's copyrighted.
24:31
Please.
24:31
Again, these are very valuable mint leaves. Do
24:34
not take them. Moving on.
24:36
And he starts to lead you guys to the next room. Is there anything you guys would
24:39
want to do in here?
24:40
It reminds me of my mint gum I have in
24:43
my backpack.
24:44
Okay.
24:45
So, uh, I get this craving
24:48
for mint. Just pop out a mint piece of
24:51
gum and slap it in my mouth.
24:53
All right.
24:53
And, uh, I offer it to anyone else as we're
24:56
walking. I say, hey, anyone want M mint
24:59
gum?
24:59
And Hogan says, okay.
25:02
And so when I go to hand him one, I also hand him a
25:05
voucher as well.
25:09
What's cloning?
25:10
I've never heard of uh,
25:13
that that's.
25:14
A little bit of a isn't it like a
25:16
Sci-Fi thing?
25:18
It's like copying someone's homework.
25:22
So it's like that episode when there were two gilligans on the
25:24
island.
25:25
Yeah, like that.
25:29
What's a gilligan?
25:32
What's cloning? What's a gilligan? Man, the way we got
25:35
here, right?
25:36
It's one of the most noble and heroic characters of modern
25:38
television.
25:41
What television are you watching?
25:43
Uh, my mom wasn't in it, so.
25:44
I have no I doubt it.
25:46
Okay, honey boo boo. Quietly.
25:49
Excuse me.
25:51
He's just going to glare at her.
25:54
Yeah. Roll me a, um, let's do
25:57
Braun.
25:58
Braun.
25:59
Okay. Yeah.
26:00
Um, first roll. Let's go.
26:01
There we go. Yeah, we're getting some rolls in.
26:03
That would be a four.
26:05
Ah, a four. Okay. She just kind of rolls her
26:08
eyes at you and walks away. She doesn't seem particularly
26:10
intimidated. Um, but you do get one of
26:13
these. These are
26:15
adversity tokens.
26:16
Yes.
26:17
So whenever you guys fail at doing something that
26:20
you have to roll for, you, uh, will get an adversity token. These
26:22
tokens can be used to give you a plus one on a future roll. They can
26:25
also be used to help one of your other
26:28
teammates out if you choose to have them as teammates, I
26:31
guess you could say. Um, but whatever the case, uh, it's kind of a
26:34
nice little mechanic to know about going forward. But
26:36
anyways, back to the mint. You guys are kind of starting to walk
26:39
towards the door. Any last second things or are we moving on to the next
26:42
room?
26:43
I am only out of game. I'm a little concerned
26:46
that neither of us breaks anything being clumsy
26:49
walking through this mint forest.
26:51
Yeah, there's two of us.
26:52
Are you both clumsy?
26:53
Oh, no.
26:54
Okay, we're going to trip on each other.
26:58
Um, let's have you guys roll.
27:00
Oh, already?
27:01
I was going to say, since you brought it up, let's have you guys roll
27:04
charm to, uh, see if you're able to kind of push through
27:07
your clumsiness. Roll a
27:09
214, you got a 14.
27:13
Philip, um, you easily walk, uh, out of there admiring,
27:16
uh, the interesting brand new technologies
27:19
that you have now, um, learned about.
27:22
But, um, on the other hand, Julian, as, uh, you are
27:24
looking at some things, ah, tell me about what it
27:27
is that causes you to kind of have a clumsy moment.
27:30
I'm trying to hand out more gum to more
27:33
people. Yeah, I'm offering it to more people, but no one seems to
27:36
be taking it. And I'm trying to offer it to that
27:38
Donna chick. She's just flat up ignoring me and I
27:41
trip.
27:42
Okay, you trip and you fall into Donna, who
27:45
also falls and bumps into one of the machines,
27:48
and all of a sudden, everything just shuts
27:50
down. It's almost like. She hit some kind of kill, uh,
27:54
switch or something like that. All the machines in the whole
27:57
room just kind of freeze up. And Dilly turns around and he
27:59
says.
28:00
What have you done?
28:02
Julian's going to just back up and
28:07
put up his hand, and, uh, he's going to point behind his hand at.
28:10
Donna.
28:13
Do another charm. He
28:15
goes wrong
28:18
hand. You hold up your hand
28:21
and then you point, but you realize that you're just pointing right back at
28:24
yourself to yourself.
28:26
And he says,
28:29
I'm not mad, I'm just
28:31
disappointed.
28:32
And he just, like, taps the machine and everything restarts up
28:35
again.
28:36
I hold up the gum to him.
28:41
Uh, so he kind of looks at your gum and he leans down, and
28:44
with, uh, his big thin
28:46
nose, he kind of gives it a sniff and.
28:48
He says, Nah, I'm good.
28:51
And then he reaches over and he takes a mint leaf off the
28:53
conveyor belt and just pops it in his.
28:55
Mouth and he says, way better.
28:57
Have you ever thought about making, uh, mint m gum
29:00
with your mint?
29:02
I like your thinking, kid. And for that, I'm
29:05
not disappointed anymore. Oh, look at that.
29:08
Things are coming up.
29:09
Julian all right, to the next
29:11
room.
29:12
Uh, okay, so you guys walk into the next room, and
29:15
you are all surprised, because standing inside the next
29:18
room is, uh, two strange creatures that
29:21
you've never seen before in your life. Um, one of
29:23
them is a short,
29:26
stubby little person, similar, uh, to the one that you kind
29:29
of you wonder if it might be similar to the one that you saw outside in the
29:32
hazmat suit. But this one is not wearing a hazmat suit. Instead,
29:35
it's wearing, uh, sort of like a barber shop
29:38
style, um, apron and
29:41
some just really basic, like, T shirt and jeans kind
29:44
of a thing. Um, but the thing that throws you
29:47
off is he a is, uh,
29:49
balding and has little antennae looking ear
29:52
things coming out of his head. Uh, secondly, he's
29:55
kind of an almost purplish pink tone of
29:58
skin. And thirdly, he
30:01
has some tentacles that are coming out
30:04
instead of arms. Um, he looks at you guys and.
30:07
Goes,
30:11
what is that?
30:11
Old holy creation?
30:14
All right, you guys have probably never seen these. All right, so
30:17
fantastic time to introduce this, uh, is one of
30:20
my, uh, I call them the Scoop Troop.
30:23
Um, they're of a, uh, species that's not
30:26
of this world. Long, uh, story short, I met
30:28
them.
30:29
Um, made a deal.
30:30
Uh, now the government kind of has.
30:31
A deal with them, but I was.
30:32
There first, and so I'm kind of.
30:34
Like the mediator between them.
30:35
I'm like the Earth representative in a.
30:37
Wait, sorry, Mr. M. Duncan, you're saying
30:40
that you have aliens?
30:43
Oh, yeah, pretty much.
30:45
Oh, cool.
30:46
Yeah, they're really nice guys.
30:48
Do you like mint gum? Um,
30:51
walk over and offer it.
30:53
It just kind of looks at it.
30:54
Goes, uh, and it reaches out with its tentacle, and it
30:57
takes it, but it doesn't take the wrapper off. It just kind of pops it in its mouth, and
31:00
he goes.
31:04
And goes.
31:05
Over to a garbage can and spits it out.
31:08
Guess they don't like meat gum. You got to try. Yeah,
31:11
that's right.
31:12
And as you guys are talking, all of a sudden, the, uh, second
31:15
strange creature comes walking into this room. It, uh,
31:18
is a hairy, white puffy
31:21
ball, is pretty much all it is. You, uh, can just barely
31:24
make out some eyes from underneath all the just, like,
31:26
fuziness that's coming off of it. And it comes in
31:29
just very, uh, matter of fact, and it just
31:32
plops down into the barber chair that's inside of this room. There's a
31:35
nice mirror. This, uh, whole place just looks like a little barber shop,
31:38
right? Just plops down in this chair. The little scoop
31:41
troop guy, he comes walking over, and he grabs a pair of
31:43
scissors and a comb, and he immediately starts
31:46
to comb through and snip out all of this fuz
31:49
until eventually, this thing has been completely
31:52
shaved of the fuzz and is now, uh,
31:55
just kind of like just kind of like a
31:58
circular creature. Kind of just looks like
32:00
a white ball with arms and legs,
32:03
and it's got these big, intimidating eyes and big mouth, and it
32:06
just goes and then it walks over
32:09
to one specific door. Uh, so there's three doors in this room. There's the
32:12
door that you guys came in. There's the door to the next room, and then there's a door
32:15
over off to the side. He walks up to the other side, opens up
32:18
the door, and walks in. And as he opens this door,
32:21
a massive gust of absolutely freezing air
32:24
comes flying in for just a moment before the door gets closed
32:26
again.
32:27
Um, and he says, now, you're probably scared.
32:30
I understand it was a bit of a throw off for me as
32:33
well. But I assure you that was a snow clone,
32:36
and they are completely harmless unless you
32:39
upset them, so don't do that. Cool.
32:42
You said clone again. Are you saying that, uh, it's
32:44
just everything here is a clone of
32:47
something?
32:48
Well, not everything, but we do do a lot of cloning. It's a lot
32:51
more, uh, of a cheap but also
32:53
environmentally safe process.
32:56
I'm going to look at Philip and go, Ever seen Star Trek?
33:00
Of course I have Clonings in
33:03
Star Trek.
33:04
I'm going to go over and open that door for a minute
33:07
in an effort to fight off my profuse.
33:12
Right.
33:12
Fantastic.
33:13
Uh, I could use a cold blast.
33:15
Yes. Oh, sure. Okay.
33:17
Um, as you're walking towards it, uh,
33:21
dilly, uh, Dunker says, I wouldn't do.
33:23
That if I was you.
33:24
And you reach for the handle, and you open up the door. I'm going to need you to
33:27
roll. I'm going to do grit.
33:32
Two a.
33:33
Two all right, I'm going to give you an adversity token. Um,
33:35
a cold breeze, absolutely freezing, comes
33:38
flying at you just as it does, um,
33:43
uh, the little scoop troop guy, he reaches
33:45
over and grabs you and pulls you back. But as he does, you
33:48
have basically been almost completely frozen
33:51
the entire front section of you, um,
33:54
with one hand or one tentacle, I guess, he pulls you back with the other
33:57
tentacle. He slams the door shut, and, uh,
34:01
Dilly Dunker says, yeah, it's
34:04
ridiculously cold.
34:05
Inside of the Ever Freeze Facility. Um,
34:08
not really safe for mere, uh.
34:10
Mortals to go inside of.
34:11
It's pretty much just for the snow clones.
34:14
Cool.
34:16
We'll give him a moment to melt.
34:18
And as you guys kind of wait for, uh,
34:21
Philip to melt back down to normal,
34:24
um, you see a few other snow clone beasts kind of
34:27
come in and get their hair shaved, their fluff shaved.
34:29
Can I grab, uh this is a barbershop,
34:32
right?
34:33
Yeah.
34:33
I'm going to see if there's, uh, on the shelf there's probably a
34:36
hairdryer.
34:37
Sure.
34:37
So I grab it. I go to go warm up
34:40
philip yeah, okay.
34:41
Yeah, that kind of helps out. Um, Hogan also does
34:44
the oh, okay. And he goes
34:47
and grabs a hairdryer as well and gets the other side. So you got two people,
34:50
like, just kind of melting you.
34:51
I'll be half covered in sweat and half frozen.
34:54
The sweat's probably what helped to freeze you over.
34:58
Awesome.
34:59
Fantastic.
35:00
Soon be fully covered in sweat, he
35:02
says.
35:04
Um, as you guys are watching, um, after enough of these beasts
35:07
have kind of come through and you guys finally finish melting, uh,
35:09
out, philip and the beasts go into their Ever Freeze room,
35:12
or whatever the case. You see the, uh, little scoop troop guys start
35:15
to sweep up all the frozen, uh,
35:18
fuzz that has come off of these creatures. And he takes it
35:21
over to a, uh, special canister that he props
35:24
open with his foot and he dumps them all in. And then
35:27
Dilly, uh, says, ah, we'll.
35:28
Probably want to see this. Follow me.
35:30
And he walks over. And there's a facility that kind of
35:33
there's like a window or whatever that kind of shows into the facility. And
35:36
you watch as the fluff is kind of run down
35:39
a conveyor belt onto a series of other conveyor belts and
35:42
machines. And it is essentially pressed
35:45
into a familiar treat that you guys recognize,
35:47
or maybe not Philip, but everybody else
35:49
recognizes as what are called freeze
35:52
Daddies, which are sort of like if you took a
35:55
snow cone and turned it into a solid ice, um,
35:58
cream, like fruit pop, right. And they all come in
36:01
different snow cone traditional flavors, right. And,
36:04
um, so that's what these are being turned into. So now you know
36:07
where that comes from, I guess, essentially. So he
36:09
says, yeah, that's pretty much.
36:11
How we make our freeze Daddies. Um,
36:14
yeah, I don't know if any of you are into it.
36:16
And Hogan says, oh, I like all of them.
36:19
All the flavors.
36:21
Oh, that's very nice, Hogan.
36:24
I'm going to say, watch this, Donna, and eat a
36:27
raw one.
36:28
Did you just pick up, like, a chunk off of Floyd? I'm trying to
36:31
impress her. Yeah, do a
36:33
charm roll.
36:35
He wants to make up for that freezer incident.
36:38
Uh, it's a ten.
36:39
She goes, is it good?
36:43
It's amazing.
36:45
And then she reaches down and she grabs one, too. She's like,
36:48
I normally don't eat stuff.
36:49
Off the floor, but, I mean, it's
36:52
safe, right? It's a sanitary factory.
36:54
And she takes a nibble and she's.
36:55
Like, it's kind of plain, needs flavor
36:58
and dilly's. Like, well, we can get you some flavor
37:01
right over here.
37:02
And he's, uh, got a series of just little syrups,
37:05
like, in kind of almost like those little ketchup bottles that you see at, like,
37:08
old diners and stuff like that. They're, um, all different
37:11
colors other than red, which is normally the ketchup, or
37:14
yellow that's normally the mustard. And he's like, feel free to try.
37:16
Whichever one you want.
37:17
And you guys are kind of just left there with
37:20
a massive series of flavors to choose from.
37:23
What are the flavors exactly?
37:25
They're not marked. It's, uh, just colored.
37:29
I want to try the purple.
37:31
Purple.
37:31
All right. You grab a handful of the stuff
37:34
off the floor. You pour a little bit of purple on there, you take a nibble, and
37:37
it tastes like grape.
37:40
I'm not a fan of grape. I don't know why I went for purple.
37:43
So what do you do with it once you're like, gross.
37:46
I hold, uh, it out and offer it to the tentacle
37:49
guy.
37:50
And he goes he just
37:52
tastes it.
37:53
And he pops it in his mouth.
37:54
I'm going to try the
37:57
yellow one.
37:58
The yellow one, um, you taste the yellow one
38:01
and it tastes like that
38:03
questionable fake banana flavor.
38:05
Okay.
38:11
Oh, don't worry. It's banana
38:13
dilly.
38:14
Dunker is watching you guys as your face is kind of contort, and
38:17
he's, hmm m. Yeah.
38:19
What's the best flavor?
38:21
I like strawberry, personally. Is that
38:24
red? Ah, it's like the pinkish red.
38:26
I'll try that then.
38:27
All right.
38:28
It's pretty good.
38:31
Is there any citrus?
38:32
Sure. We got orange. Uh, we got blood
38:35
orange, which we call tigers.
38:37
I'll try the orange.
38:38
Yeah.
38:39
Do you want the blood orange?
38:41
It's regular.
38:42
Regular orange gives you the regular orange. And
38:45
it kind of has that, like, um, sort
38:48
of that powdery orange taste to it. I
38:51
guess you could say kind of like almost like when they try to do orange with, like,
38:53
medicine.
38:54
So fake orange?
38:55
Yeah, fake orange flavor. He's like,
38:58
I'll really insist the blood.
39:00
Orange is way better. But
39:03
you wanted the orange, so I gave you the orange.
39:05
I got to save space for the next batch of treats.
39:08
Fair enough.
39:09
Is this a whole new experience for you.
39:12
Yeah, that's true.
39:14
There's sugar in it.
39:15
Yeah.
39:16
And there is or at least in the syrup.
39:19
I do have to ask, uh, prior
39:22
to this was the only ice cream Philip have ever
39:24
seen the special treats that his grandma would bring him,
39:27
or did he know other frozen treats existed?
39:30
No, I've only had the sugar free.
39:31
Citrus popsicles full on
39:34
shutting other flavors.
39:36
Awesome.
39:38
So when you saw other ice creams in, like, old time shows, you were
39:40
just like, oh, part of the fiction.
39:43
Well, uh, we just weren't allowed those. Grandma had a lot of rules.
39:46
Yeah, that's right.
39:47
Maybe a few too many.
39:49
Maybe a few too many. Um,
39:52
you guys watch, uh, Donna, she just gets,
39:54
like, probably a cherry, which is
39:57
the super deep red color, right? And she's just kind of
40:00
nibbling on that. Uh, Hogan, on the other hand,
40:03
he kind of, like, makes almost a hot dog shape out
40:06
of the fluff. And what he does is he just starts
40:09
taking a different syrup and he puts a little bit on a spot, and
40:12
then a little bit on a spot, and then a little bit on a spot, and he just starts eating them.
40:15
Um, and he's going through and he just takes, like, a bite. And he's like, m.
40:18
Kiwi takes another bite.
40:21
Pineapple.
40:21
M takes another bite.
40:23
M apple.
40:26
And this is pretty much you really know your
40:29
flavors.
40:31
Yeah, pretty much.
40:32
I don't know what's going to happen to you first, a, uh,
40:35
sugar rush or a cardiac arrest.
40:39
What's that?
40:41
Which one?
40:42
The second one.
40:44
Uh, your heart's going to stop.
40:48
Why?
40:49
I don't know.
40:49
Too m much sugar.
40:50
Is that a thing?
40:51
Yeah.
40:53
Okay.
40:55
Julian's shaking his head.
41:00
No, don't listen to this one. I'm older.
41:02
All right, you guys roll opposing charm.
41:06
Ten.
41:08
Uh, seven.
41:09
All right, well, I'll give you an adversity token.
41:12
He goes, you're funny,
41:15
choreograph rest only
41:18
exists with, uh, cops.
41:23
I am going to just.
41:28
Anyway, let's head into the next room.
41:31
I think you guys are going to really enjoy it's. Pretty much like
41:34
the coolest thing in the entire factory.
41:36
Maybe.
41:37
Probably. I think so.
41:38
And he takes you into the next room and in very Willy
41:41
Wonka fashion. And I probably shouldn't reference that as I'm coming
41:44
up with this again. Everything's inspired by Willy Wonka. I'm
41:47
not doing Willy Wonka the Chalk Factory. But with that being
41:50
said, the next room that you walk into, the entire
41:52
room, everything inside of it is some
41:55
form of frozen treat or ice cream
41:58
cone or something to that effect.
42:01
Right. It's just like, uh, an entire
42:04
forest scenery. You've got ice cream cone bushes,
42:07
chocolate trees dot the landscape with fruit
42:10
and toppings scattered amongst the branches. Shaved
42:13
ice snow of every flavor covers the floor.
42:15
Fudge fountains jut from the ground, and a gelato
42:18
geyser spouts the Italian treat high into the
42:21
air. At the far end of the room, you see a river filled
42:24
with soda and tufts of ice cream of every
42:27
flavor float down that carbonated flow into
42:30
a tunnel in the distance.
42:32
Well, this is what I call the
42:35
creamery kingdom. And this is where
42:38
majority of the magic happens, you see? Whereas
42:41
other factories will milk cows for
42:43
cream, and they'll do all kinds of other chemically
42:46
things to process their ice cream treats, we
42:49
just grow it here.
42:51
So that's how ice cream is made.
42:54
Our ice creams made.
42:57
You keep saying all this stuff. You're
43:00
saying first you clone
43:02
stuff.
43:03
Uh huh.
43:04
You genetically modify creatures to then
43:07
clone again. Now you're saying you can just grow
43:10
ice cream.
43:10
That's
43:13
right.
43:14
Is that a tree made of out of ice cream?
43:17
That is a tree made out of chocolate.
43:19
See, it's got some ice cream stuff coming off of it.
43:22
See, how can you say he's not growing stuff when there's a
43:25
tree made out of chocolate?
43:26
Right over there. What? Ah, are trees made
43:30
of chocolate?
43:32
That one is.
43:33
When was the last time you went outside of, uh, this?
43:36
Well, typically, they made out of
43:38
bark.
43:39
Yes.
43:39
That is most trees.
43:41
This is not there's a
43:44
tree in my parents cracker, uh, barrel shop made
43:47
out of candy. Uh, it's a
43:49
candy tree.
43:50
So it's just a piece of wood.
43:52
That has candy stuff?
43:53
Correct.
43:54
And rock candy. Like a little
43:57
stand.
43:57
That's pretty good. That's pretty raspberry flavor.
43:59
All kinds.
44:01
Fantastic. Well, if you head over to one of the chocolate trees I've
44:03
got here, you'll find out that there is no
44:06
form of wood or bark or anything inside.
44:09
It's just well, actually, there is bark.
44:11
It's a chocolate bark, of course. Um, but
44:14
inside, it's just a nice, tasty, uh,
44:17
softer chocolate materials.
44:18
Got any brownie bits anywhere?
44:20
Oh, sure.
44:21
Try the leaves on the trees.
44:23
They're brownie flavored.
44:24
They're brownies.
44:26
Uh, yeah. Kieran's just going to head over to one of
44:29
the shorter trees and just.
44:32
Pick a few leaves, and they taste
44:35
like brownies.
44:35
Some of them have M m's inside.
44:37
Some of them have chocolate chips inside.
44:39
Uh, he's gonna try to pick the ones that are just pure
44:42
brownie.
44:42
Oh, okay, sure. Yeah.
44:43
There's just some straight brownie ones. As he's
44:46
just biting into them one at a time, he's going
44:49
to grab a few and try to
44:52
sneak it away.
44:53
Oh, okay.
44:53
Nobody's, um, stopping you.
44:55
He's like, yeah, have free rain. Oh,
44:57
thanks. Um, you also notice that scattered about and I'll
45:00
definitely check with you two about what you're doing, but you also notice scattered about, you see,
45:03
uh, more of those little scoop troop guys, and they
45:06
all in their tentacled hands have, like, ice cream scoops or like,
45:09
those things that they use at cold stones, the spades or whatever
45:12
they call them.
45:13
The ones that you yeah.
45:15
Chop up the ice cream, mix it all together, and they're just, like, harvesting.
45:18
So they've got little containers, and they're, like, scooping things
45:21
off of the bush or off of the ground
45:24
or whatever the case, and they're just kind of harvesting the
45:27
various ice, uh, cream and frozen treats. But what are you guys kind
45:30
of drawn to?
45:31
Well, what exactly is the river made out of? And can
45:34
I sample it?
45:35
Yeah, absolutely. It seems to be some kind of.
45:38
Uh well, then I'm going to be like, donna, watch.
45:44
This and lean down.
45:45
There and try to drink some.
45:46
Okay.
45:47
What kind of soda?
45:49
Um, we'll find out in a minute.
45:55
Yeah, let's do I want to say, like,
45:58
a brawn to see if you can kind of, like, hold on and
46:01
not fall in.
46:02
It's, uh, a three.
46:03
It is a three. Um,
46:06
sure enough, you slip and slide into
46:08
the soda as you're drinking from
46:11
it, how deep is it? Um, well, you
46:14
don't go to the bottom, but you also don't feel the
46:17
bottom.
46:17
How fast is it?
46:18
It's not moving too fast. Yeah.
46:21
Um, um, I prefer if you didn't do it
46:24
that way. Uh, excuse me, could
46:27
you come it all flows downstream, so that's
46:29
good. But you kind of contaminated everything up until
46:32
this point. Um, excuse me.
46:35
Uh, during the chaos out of my backpack, I'm going
46:37
to pull out, like, a little lunchbox and
46:40
start trying to pick some more stuff while they're not.
46:43
You'Re just loading, like I'm loading up
46:47
specific.
46:47
Okay. Okay. Interesting.
46:49
All right, um, as you're kind of starting to float
46:52
down the stream, what is Julian doing?
46:54
Julian's actually standing right next to, uh, Mr.
46:57
Dipper.
46:58
Okay.
46:58
Is that his name?
46:59
Mr. Dipper? Duncan.
47:01
Mr. Duncan.
47:02
Mr. Dunker.
47:04
And ah, he's saying, uh, Philip, that
47:07
doesn't follow help code.
47:09
Um, you should get out of there. That's not
47:12
safe.
47:12
Uh, Dilly kind of leans over.
47:13
He says, trust me when I say there's a lot of things at this facility
47:16
that don't follow the safety, uh, code.
47:19
Freshman.
47:20
Well, and Julian's going to turn to him and
47:23
go, I'm a mandatory reporter for
47:26
health violations.
47:28
Bowls. Julian's going to pull out his
47:32
notepad while this is happening. Philip's slowly
47:34
going down the river.
47:36
And yeah, obviously Dilly Dunker is chasing after him. And he
47:39
looks over, uh, to one of the, um,
47:42
scoop troop and he.
47:43
Says, uh, could you grab
47:46
something?
47:47
And it just looks kind of like ecstatic. It throws its little
47:50
tools on the ground and it goes rushing off. And it comes back
47:53
with, um, one of those straws where it's sort of like
47:56
a cookie outside and then there's like, chocolate on the inside. I don't know if there's
47:58
like, an actual word for him, but,
48:01
um, he brings it over and he kind of lowers it into the
48:04
stream. I'm going to have you make,
48:07
um, probably another brawn to
48:10
catch onto it.
48:12
Seven. Seven. Okay.
48:13
Yeah, you managed to grab onto it. Start
48:16
pulling yourself out as they kind of pull you out. You're completely
48:19
drenched in soda at this point.
48:22
What was the flavor of the soda?
48:24
Uh, let's go with root beer.
48:26
That makes sense. Delicious.
48:29
Classic.
48:29
You say as you get.
48:33
Pulled, dip.
48:34
It in some ice vanilla ice cream, you'll be good to go.
48:37
Yes. Oh, man.
48:37
Yeah, I should have had you, like, dodge a chunk of vanilla
48:40
ice cream on your way, whatever, uh, the case, they're
48:43
able to pull you out of the water.
48:44
And he says, um, yeah, maybe we like, um, I've
48:47
got, like, straws if you want a straw.
48:49
And he starts handing a little curly straw to each
48:52
of you. He's like, next know it's really long. It's like maybe
48:55
like 3ft long.
48:57
He's like, yeah, you can just drink know, from
48:59
a safe distance.
49:02
Maybe, uh, Donna donna didn't even notice this
49:04
whole thing. She was
49:07
over she was over picking, um, what are
49:10
called Swiggity fruities off of
49:13
a bush. Uh, they're actually little ice
49:17
cream, uh, treats that are all shaped like fruits. And then, of
49:20
course, they are the flavor of whatever that fruit is.
49:23
So you've got, like, little strawberries that are strawberry flavored ice cream.
49:25
You've got little grapes that taste like if you had
49:28
frozen grapes, which is one of my personal
49:31
favorite treats. Uh, I digress, and she looks
49:34
over.
49:34
And her mouth is like, stuff full. And she's like, what's going on?
49:37
I'm m pretty sure the one Nate he calls
49:40
himself Philip, just fell into the river trying to
49:43
impress.
49:43
Oh, didn't
49:46
work. And then she goes back to eating and Dilly says,
49:49
uh, if you've all.
49:50
Had enough here, feel free to grab a handful
49:53
of whatever to go. Uh, we're going to get into my
49:56
little boat.
49:57
And you see over there, there's like, a little paddle boat, and
49:59
it's shaped like a big giant duck, but
50:02
it's the chocolate duck. It's a duck fudger, of
50:06
course. Um, it's just kind of coming down the stream
50:08
towards you guys, and it's, uh, got one of the little
50:11
scoop troop guys at the forefront of it that's just
50:14
paddling away. And he looks like he's sweating, he.
50:17
Looks.
50:20
Exhausted, and he finally pulls up alongside of you guys.
50:23
That's perfectly normal, and it's not worth.
50:25
Pointing out or discussing
50:28
his
50:32
sweat.
50:33
Uh, Julian, everybody sweats like
50:36
that.
50:36
Is that what you.
50:40
Say?
50:40
Julian walks over to Philip.
50:41
He goes, you okay there,
50:44
Philip? Just a little sticky. Was it
50:48
good?
50:48
It's all

and Julian's going to grab a straw, and he's going to walk up
50:54
a river, and he's going to see the spot where Philip
50:57
fell in, which is a clear ice cream slide that
50:59
was created.
51:01
Yeah.
51:01
And he's just going to go a little further up and then bend over and
51:04
start drinking some.
51:05
Sounds good. Awesome.
51:07
Yeah, you taste it. It's a really good root beer. It's probably one of the best
51:10
root beers you've ever had, if not the
51:12
best crisp.
51:15
Uh, Julian did have a question.
51:18
The guy that the little
51:20
scooper guy. Is he following
51:23
us from the no.
51:25
No, he's still in the barbershop. There's other ones here, but that
51:28
one.
51:29
Stuck around the barbershop. Could have Julian waved him to
51:31
follow us?
51:33
Uh, probably. Um, not just because he had a job he was doing. So,
51:36
like, there were more of the snow clones that were coming in.
51:39
Okay, yeah, he's got a job to do. Just
51:42
like Julian's got a job to do, as he remembers.
51:44
That's right.
51:45
The coupons and vouchers.
51:46
In his pocket.
51:47
That's right.
51:48
There you go.
51:49
Awesome.
51:49

51:52
