[groovy music]
- [Sam] Get ready for a "Game Changer"!
Tonight's guests, his hugs
make me go totally insane,
it's Mike Trapp!
That is wild.
Buzzer Pizza's number one
customer, Rekha Shankar!
[Sam and Mike laughing]
And ready or Gastronaut,
it's Jordan Myrick!
- Boi-yoi-yoi-yoi-yoing!
[Sam laughs]
- And your host, me. I've
been here the whole time.
This is "Game Changer",
the only show where the
game changes every show.
I am your host, Sam Reich.
I am joined today by these
three lovely contestants.
Now, you all understand
how the game works.
- No.
- Not at all.
- I said yes, 'cause it's my
first time and I'm nervous.
- That's right, our players have no idea
what game it is they're about to play.
The only way to learn is by playing,
the only way to win is by learning,
and the only way to begin is by beginning.
So without further ado, let's
begin, with another episode.
Then another, then another.
Backing myself further
and further into a corner
where it's harder and
harder to be original.
- I've noticed that.
- Your stuff has been suffering.
- Players, I'm spent.
Would you produce this episode for me?
- [Announcer] First to the stage is Paul,
with a pitch that's no copy, all paste.
- Trapp, Rekha, Jordan,
I stand before you today
a humble man with big dreams.
I have a question.
What do you remember and cherish
the most from your childhood?
Allow me to answer for you.
[Sam laughs]
I bet it's when we used
to cover our hands in glue
and then peel it off.
Well, my pitch today is
called Project Snake Skin.
If you fund my idea, two
amazing helpers, Nico and Ash,
are going to cover my entire body in glue
and then remove it in
long, satisfying strips.
I am asking for a modest sum of $550
to cover the cost of materials
and the full body wax
that I got in preparation for this.
Producers, what do you say?
Peel or no peel?
- Now players, or should I say producers,
I have made no secret over the years
as to how Dropout marketing works.
We produce content, and
then we market that content,
using social video to do so.
The producer to fund the ideas
with the most social video
views wins the episode.
Of course, we won't know who that is
until a month after this episode airs
and all the clips have been posted.
- Oh, interesting.
- You each have $10,000.
What do you think of Paul's pitch?
- I love Paul's pitch.
[Sam laughs]
Anyone who enjoys looking
at a shirtless Paul-
- Huge demo.
- How much nudity will there be?
I'm looking for no p*nis.
Legs definitely, maybe butt.
- Jordan, I'm with you.
I'm ready to go down
to my briefs for this.
- I think we could attract a
lot of people that are like,
you're k*lling yourself.
- Yeah.
- You're putting glue all over your body.
- What is seeping into your skin?
- Hate views from-
- [Sam] Wow. Wow.
- Oh, so rage bait.
- People are really going
to debate in the comments
whether I'm harming myself in some way.
- Controversy does mean engagement.
- That's how I live.
- You call this Project Snake Skin.
I think what you want is a
peel of one solid, slimy-
- Could you get it in one piece?
- I don't think he could do it.
- I'm going to be wearing underwear,
so I can't break the line there.
But maybe I could do one full top piece
and two for the bottom-
- Like a sweater and pants.
- People want the one big-
- They do want it.
- That's what I'm hoping to
achieve today, with your help.
- If any one of you
decides to fund this video,
Paul will go offstage.
We will record the gluing up.
Then he'll come back onto the stage,
and we'll watch you peel it off of him.
- You brought up so many good points,
but I also want to bring up 90s nostalgia.
- Do people not do the glue thing anymore?
- I was born in 1993,
and I didn't do this.
[all gasp]
- Gasp!
- But do you still see the appeal
in such a feat of strength?
- [in unison] The a-peel!
- I think I'm going to
go ahead and say I'm out.
[Sam gasps]
- Oh my.
- [Sam] Jordan is out.
- That's really huge.
- I love you, Paul.
- [Sam] Would either of
you like to make Paul
an offer of his requested $550?
- How do you feel about 100?
- 100 doesn't even cover the
wax that I already paid for.
[Mike and Rehka laughing]
- How much did the wax cost?
- I don't want to say that.
[Sam and contestants laugh]
- I do think this appeals
to me on an emotional level.
It appeals to me on an intellectual level.
- Let's go, Trapp. I
know you want to say yes.
- Paul, I'm in. I believe in you.
- I knew from the very start
that you were the one I wanted to go with.
- Great.
- Let's lock it in.
- In that case, Paul, your
idea has been greenlit.
- Thank you.
- [Sam] Nico and Ash,
please go ahead and cover Paul in glue!
- Let's go!
- Let's go!
It's peeling time, you
guys! Thank you, producers.
- Literally, no problem.
[Mike and Rehka laughing]
- [Paul] Oh my god.
You're artists.
That's a pretty good, solid layer.
I feel good about this.
- Trapp, that is $550 away from you,
bringing you to $9,450.
Congratulations on
being our first producer
to take a chance on an idea.
- If no one else funds
anything, I've won by default.
- Hey, listen, quantity is a part of this.
- Oh, because they all add up.
- They all add up.
- Better bring out another
muscular q*eer man.
- Would you settle for
a muscular q*eer woman?
- Yes.
- Yes.
- [Announcer] Next, Anna has an idea
that's a kind jester
toward total strangers.
- Hear ye, hear ye!
Producers, haveth you ever
seen those videos of the gents
rolling around the basketball
hoop in town square
for strangers to shooteth
upon a free throw?
They're like, "Stranger, take the ball!"
And then the strangers
sort of sh**t the ball,
and if they make it, it's like, woo!
And even if they don't make
it, they're like, "Good job!"
- I've seen those videos, yes.
- Hugely viral!
Lo, our video will present
strangers with a throne
upon which to reign.
[bell jingling]
My bell fell off.
- I'm out! I'm out!
- Oh, and that's fair!
- The bells-
- Oh!
- I'm in!
[Rehka laughs]
- We got him back, boys! We got him back!
I will assemble a crew of Dropout members
to go into the world and find our kings,
record it, and boom, royal virality.
So for props, costumes, and a
really cool throne and stuff,
I am seeking a budget of $1,800.
Will you join me in giving people
the pleasure of being king for a day?
- I feel like with
those basketball videos,
you're getting an element of competition.
- The goal of the basketball videos
is not to make the basket.
- Okay.
- It's breaking the pattern
of everyday monotony.
- The average person on
the street is very scared.
- But perhaps it's a gorgeous throne.
- Sure.
- And remember when "Game
of Thrones" was so big,
and everyone wanted to sit in that chair?
- [Rehka] Right.
- That's true.
- So people will see it, be enticed.
Real excited. Come on, try it!
And then all of a sudden,
you're being fed grapes.
- Something that's missing for me,
kind of piggybacking
off my colleague Jordan,
is the underdog story.
I think what's interesting
about these videos
that I would like, for the record,
to say I've never seen or heard of-
- That does hinder me
ultimately in the longterm.
[Rehka laughing]
- And how many Dropout cast members?
- Holy moly.
- Say your three favorite,
and that's who will be in it with you.
- What about these three
amazing Dropout cast members
in front of me?
- I won't bring the numbers.
- Okay!
[all laughing]
- How do you move around a throne
that is big enough and sturdy enough-
- I'm picturing sort of a dolly situation.
- Okay, can I pitch on that pitch?
- Absolutely.
- This should be a parade.
- Okay!
Because I love a parade.
- You run up to them, you say, "Quick!"
Something of that nature.
- Scary!
- You hop on the dolly.
It's some kind of throne or whatever.
- Love.
- You get pulled like 15 feet,
you wave, everybody claps.
I will go in.
- Okay.
- Thank you.
- Okay.
- I'm out.
- And why?
- I think this will scare most people.
I think people will not
want to sit in the chair.
- So far, $1,500 offer from Jordan.
- I think it's great, and I think you
have gone very viral many times before.
You yourself have virality.
- [Sam] Wow.
- So I think I'm ready
to attach myself to you.
- Thank you. Wow, I
didn't even bring that up.
- That's a $1,500 offer.
Do you want to counter Jordan? Anna?
- If anything, I'm scrappy and crafty,
and I do think we can make it work.
- Anna's idea has been greenlit
for $1,500 by Jordan Myrick.
- Congratulations.
- Jordan, you're on the board.
That's $1,500 away from you.
- Thank you.
- It's a pleasure doing business.
This is mine!
[Sam laughs]
Bye!
- Bye!
- [Rehka] Thank you!
- [Jordan] Good job!
- We seek a king for the day!
- We are waiting for a king!
- A benevolent ruler!
- No princes!
- Please, come. King for
a day, be king for a day!
- Would any of you like to be king?
We're ungoverned!
King, king! Little king!
- King, no? King, no?
- Please!
- Uh-oh. Competition, guys.
- Oh my god.
- Want to ride with me?
- You want to ride with
us? You can be king!
- Hop on for one second!
[peasants cheering]
What is your name, sir?
- My name is Marha.
- Marha!
- All hail King Marha!
Take the king's hand!
- Kiss the king's hand, please. Thank you.
[peasants screaming]
- Off with her head!
- Would you like to be king
while you get to your appointment?
- All hail Queen Lisa!
- Queen Lisa!
- Bow to your peaceful queen!
- Whatever you guys are
doing, it looks like fun.
- All hail-
- King Too Fresh!
It is your job to knight someone.
- I demand you to slay
this guy right here!
- Slay the cameraman!
- My liege!
- The king has ordered m*rder!
- King for a day!
- Would you like to be a king?
- Yes.
[peasants cheering]
- A child rules this
kingdom, as it should be!
- What do you want as king?
- Food!
[peasants cheering]
- The king feasts!
[Jeremy chortling]
- Queen Debbie!
Bow to the queen right now!
Whoa, rollerblader!
- Queen Rania! All hail!
- All hail Queen Rania!
[peasants cheering]
- Come on! You can be king!
I've gotten a kiss from the king.

[relaxing elevator music]
- Producers, it's time for our next pitch.
- [Announcer] Next to the stage is Katie,
whose pitch is a real roll of the dice.
[Jordan giggling]
- [Sam] Oh! Oh, wow!
Oh! Oh!
Space work.
And she's going around a second time.
- Is this going to be for a horse?
- I hope this is the whole pitch.
[Jordan giggling]
- Greetings, fair travelers.
D&D has captured the imagination
of the Dropout audience,
and I should know.
I've been in exactly one
"Dimension 20" campaign
and was never invited back.
But that all changes today.
My pitch, Katie DMs a
"Dimension 20" campaign.
My players, the best DMs in the world,
all forced to sit through
whatever bullshit I come up with.
Perhaps we're on a bus, or in an Uber.
Haven't put much thought into it.
Whatever it ends up being,
the results are sure to be upsetting
not just to D&D fans, but
specifically to Brennan.
And what does the internet love
more than an upset Brennan?
I am seeking a budget of $3,000.
- And it's going to be one
full episode of "Dimension 20"?
- That I DM, knowing nothing.
[Sam laughs]
- Can I go back to your
idea of it being on a bus?
- Yes.
- I think that's terrific.
- Thank you.
- Nowhere to go. I'm in.
[Sam and crew laughing]
I think people will watch
this because they love to see
a twist on D20.
- Yes.
- They would love to see these
heavy hitters at the table.
- Yes.
- Doing your weird bus stuff.
- Right, my bus stuff.
- It could be Uber. I'm open.
- I'm thinking bus.
- Yeah!
- I'm thinking we go bus.
- Yeah. You think school bus?
You think city bus?
- I think city bus,
and I think that I dress sort
of like this for the campaign
but it has nothing to do with it.
- Insane.
- Can I go ahead and say that I'm in?
Speaking from personal experience,
any clip with Brennan will go viral.
- Yes.
- So it kind of doesn't
matter what you do.
[Mike and Sam laughing]
- I love that.
- I will give you $3,500.
I'll give you 500 extra dollars.
- How much did I ask for?
- You asked for $3,000.
- And how much did you say?
- I said 35. I'll give you a little-
- I'm not a numbers person.
- I will give you $2,500.
- [Katie] Interesting.
- That is less than-
- That's less!
- Don't tell her that!
- That's less!
- She just said she's
not a numbers person!
- Trapp!
- $3,500, and I will be in it.
- I can give you $4,000,
and I can also get Rekha to be in it.
- No, you can't.
- No, I can.
- No, you can't.
- Rekha's one of my best
friends in the entire world.
- You literally can't.
You literally can't.
- I can.
- I wanted it to be DM specific
because I'm going to be-
- So you don't want me in it.
- [Jordan] I don't want Rekha.
- $3,500, and I swear
Rekha won't be in it.
- I will give you $3,500
with the promise I will not be in it.
- And I'll give you that exact same thing.
- Two hundred hundred dollars.
- Shut up, Trapp!
[contestants laughing]
- [Sam] Katie-
- I'll slap you! Yeah?
- Katie, the choice is
yours. Rekha or Jordan.
- Rekha. I'm going Rekha. Sorry, Jordan.
- Wow, you didn't even look at me.
- I indicated early interest.
- And I came in here thinking
I would like to work with Rekha on this.
I'm so sorry.
- This is greenlit!
And that is $3,500 away from Rekha.
Rekha and Katie are in business
together! Congratulations!
[dramatic music]
[bus honking]
- Hello, everyone, and welcome
to another thrilling season
of "Dimension 20: On a Bus".
- On a bus?
- I am your humble dragon
master, Katie Marovitch,
and with me, as always, are my people.
Say hi, my people.
- [Players] Hi, my people.
- You already know them.
You already love them.
Brennan Lee Mulligan.
- Hi.
- Aabria Iyengar.
- Hi.
- Jasmine Bhullar.
- Hello.
- And we've got my favorite, no offense
Mark Mercer
- Hey. Mark here.
- I love you, Mark.
And let me set the scene.
- [Aabria] Oh my god!
- [Brennan] Christ.
I know Rick had nothing to do with that.
- So, I guess it's time for a battle.
- With who?
- A battle.
- What do you mean?
- Based on what?
- Is the bus under attack?
- Do you want to be lint?
- Oh.
- Do you want to be a little army man?
Do you want to be this little hat?
Or do you want to be a blue M&M?
- I'll be hat.
- And there you are!
- There's food in this.
- And then I have dice for you.
- [Aabria] Just sixes.
I ate my M&M.
- Air.
[contestants laughing]
I ask you to ponder that.
- Where's the air? In context
of what? What's it doing?
How does it connect to us
and our emotional journey?
Do we experience the air? Who are we?
Some of us are lint!
- As we make our way into
Los Angeles, California.
- As a piece of lint, do I
have a natural affinity for
the landscape of Los Angeles?
- [Aabria] You're really-
- You are thinking so hard.
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- You're trying to
believe in this so hard.
- We are actually on a bus.
Our mission is to get from
North Hollywood to LAX.
- This is a longer season, right?
- You're going to roll your
dice. We have a lot of dice.
- They're not the right ones.
- What are you rolling for?
- You go first. Can you roll for me?
- Just roll 1d6?
- Roll what?
- He's rolling initiative!
- You just said he goes first!
You don't need initiative
if he's going first!
- Five.
- Okay, so actually, you needed a six,
a perfect six, in order to attack.
- What are we fighting!
- Don't know what it is.
Okay, I got a two.
- You needed a six, so-
- What is the dice system of the game?
- Six.
- Six!
- So what does six do?
- That's excellent. You destroyed the bus.
- So in the first episode
of "Dimension 20: On a Bus",
we destroy the bus in
the first 10 minutes?
- The bus is gone. The bus is gone.
- Are we abandoned on the
freeway now without a bus?
- Matt can't help himself but help you
narrate this into making sense.
- Here you go. Here's your f*cking bus.
- Katie, you have an
awesome responsibility.
You are the horizontal and the vertical.
You are the environment and all events.
Can you make me understand how a hat
did something that was rolling
a five, and a bus is gone?
I can't imagine what happened.
- Yeah, and we'll get into that next week.
- No.
- Why? No!
- Well, that's everything.
We'll see you next time
on another exciting episode
of "Dimension 20: On A Bus".
- There's no bus anymore!
- We're going to now begin
the "Adventuring Party".
- No! No! No!
- I'll f*cking k*ll myself.
- Let's do it right now.
- [Aabria] No!
[relaxing elevator music]
- Producers, it's time
for your next pitch.
- [Announcer] Next up,
Erika makes the producers
a cutting edge proposal.
- Hello, producers. I'm many things.
A voiceover artist, a TTRPGer.
I'm also one thing that you
perhaps do not know about.
A real estate mogul.
And I am about to offer you
my side shave real estate.
- Oh!
- Yeah, it's very famous.
- Should you fund this idea,
my side shave artist here Ed Fonseca-
- Hello.
- ...is ready to shave
whatever you may want into
my head, here and now.
My only limits are your imagination.
For Ed's fee, as well as
my likely embarrassment,
I am seeking a budget of just $500.
- Shaved side of the head is
huge to the q*eer community,
so I think my community
might be seeing that
a little bit more than the
community of these two.
- I have a question for
Ed, if I may address you.
- Of course.
- Don't talk to Ed!
Do not look Ed in the eye!
- Sorry, sorry, sorry!
Ed, are you able to get
as detailed as a face?
- Can you shave a QR code in there?
- Those are a little bit more difficult.
- Too crazy, okay.
- He can do a face.
How detailed the face might be?
- [Rehka] Okay.
- What's your specialty?
- I met Ed because I wanted tentacles
shaved into the side of my head.
We have done a maze, a bunch of dice.
- I'm in, because I have a vision.
- What's your vision?
- I'm not telling everyone here-
- Lookie here!
- I've said yes to less.
- Let me whisper it. Can you come to me?
- Okay. Yeah.
- Everybody muff your ears.
- Ed, do you have a favorite
design you've ever done?
- Mostly freestyle.
- Cool.
- I've been cutting 35 years.
- [Rehka] Yeah.
- And a rap artist that was
getting a lot of designs,
he put one of mine on his album.
- Wow!
- I've just been doing it ever since.
- That's actually pretty good, so.
- Jordan and Erika have
a handshake agreement.
- I will do whatever Jordan
said for a dollar more.
- Okay, I'll do one more dollar than that.
- Another dollar atop that.
- Great. One more from me.
- We are at $504.
- One more dollar!
- And then I'll do one on top of that.
- All right, that's fine.
- In that case, this
goes to Jordan for $506.
- [Jordan] All right!
- Jordan, do we get to hear what this is?
- No, you don't.
- Wow! It's going to be a surprise!
- That's cool.
- I consented.
- I'm so excited. Well,
congratulations, Jordan.
Congratulations, Erika.
We will see you once the shave is done.
- [Erika] Oh my gosh.
Okay.
[razor buzzing]
Oh my god. Jordan!
- If I could please have the next pitch.
- [Announcer] Next up
is Sephie with a pitch
that's sure to rev your engines.
- Hello. Welcome to me.
[Jordan and Sam laughing]
- Great start.
- You know what Dropout's
audience needs most
is a good extra helping of horny.
My pitch to you is a
sexy, 90s style car wash
with your favorite Dropout
stars like Ify, Grant,
a bunch of other people.
I have consenting forms from every person
that I just mentioned and
a bunch of other people
whose names I can't read 'cause they're-
- You say you have a lot of
signatures. How many people-
- 20.
[Rekha gasps]
- 20?
- 20 sudsy sluts?
- 20 sudsy sluts that have
all consented to this.
- Down by the seashore.
- Not because I threatened
their jobs at all.
- How much are you asking for?
- $4,200.
- What!
- We will be renting a muscle car.
- What!
- Oh.
- We can't just do a Honda?
- You think this comes cheap?
Do you think this is cheap?
- No, that's nice.
- Last time we were at a
party, you had me touch that,
and it felt very expensive.
- It was.
- Is there anyone else you plan on asking?
- Jordan wants to be in it.
- I'm just wondering!
[Sam laughs]
- What we are funding is
a video of the car wash.
- Yes.
- What is your vision for this video?
- Music video? Is it a-
- What's the vibe here?
- It is a music video with
royalty-free music, probably,
where everyone starts
washing a muscle car,
scantily clad in things like, you know,
bikini tops, denim panties.
- It seems a little pricey to me,
especially because a car wash, in theory,
should generate money, right?
- Very business-minded.
- I think what this is missing for me
is the competition element to it.
Like, two teams of sexy car washes.
- Can I pitch on that pitch?
- Please.
- It could be like,
like if you want team A,
comment if you want team B.
- Wow.
- That is actually an incredible idea.
- [Trapp] Then it's spurring engagement.
- [Jordan] It's interactive.
- If you do that, I could give you $3,600.
I will even offer myself
in the most amount of clothes possible.
- Just Rekha, fully clothed, soaking wet.
- [Rekha] Absolutely.
- Could I go in with you on this?
- Sure. A joint proposal.
- And we do 50/50.
- Can I do $3,600 and one dollar?
- I will k*ll you.
- This right now stands
with the two of you
offering to go in
together, Rekha and Jordan.
- You want to do 37 split?
- I would do 37 split with you.
- We'll do 37 split.
- Or Mike Trapp-
- Who hasn't offered himself,
fully clothed or otherwise,
to the project.
- No.
- I'm offering the incredible idea
of making it a competition.
- Which we stole!
- Thank you. I'm going
with these two, thank you.
- Aw!
- That's so sweet.
- This pitch is being split
between Rekha and Jordan.
- Thank you for the idea.
I'm sorry we stole it.
But that's business, baby.
- [Matt] That's okay.
- That's business.
- And it's greenlit!
Sephie, congratulations!
- Bye!
- I can't stop bidding! I'm addicted!
- And so that's $1,850 from each of you.
- I love the idea of comment,
like. I think that's smart.
- I think it could be fun.
- This is the sexy car wash.
Like if you think team one is the sexiest.
Comment if you think
team two is the sexiest.

- Trapp, we're going to
have to start figuring out
how to weasel you in there.
- How much do you have?
- I've only bid on Paul's so far.
- That's all you have, is Paul?
- Speaking of Paul, we have
an update on Mr. Robalino.
Paul, let's get you out onstage.
- No, no, no, no, no.
[Jordan and Sam laughing]
- How are you feeling, Paul?
- I can hardly move my body.
Let me show you this.
[all gasp]
- [Sam] Wow!
- Oh my god!
- [Paul] I actually need help.
- Trapp, I'm going to invite you to help
peel the snake skin off
of Paul, but before I do,
let's get kiddie pool out
here to catch the remnants.
- [Rehka] It looks awful.
- [Jordan] It's very scary. [groans]
- It looks like you're a fake person.
- [Trapp] Oh, it wrinkles!
- [Paul] Do you see how wrinkly I look?
- [Trapp] Oh my goodness.
- [Paul] It's already kind of peeling off.
- It's got a kind of
old man skin vibe to it.
- [Rehka] Aw!
- [Sam] This looks so great!
- [Jordan] It looks so scary.
- [Matt] Oh, it's stuck.
- Oh no, who knew glue would stick?
- Shut up, Rekha!
[Sam and Rehka laughing]
It's like the Tin Man.
We're going to try. Oh, look at that!
Just you and me, Paul.
- Guys, it really feels good.
[Sam laughing]
This feels like an expensive therapeutic.
- You ever rub butter under chicken skin?
- Oh, that's fun.
- Should I just tear it,
and then do a full, like, one of these?
- Oh, yeah!
- All right, we're going to do it.
Oh no.
[crinkly peeling noises]
[all groaning]
For you!
- Don't touch me!
- For you!
- Don't touch me!
Don't touch me!
- Thank you.
- [Sam] Oh god! Wow!
- [Rehka] That's good, Trapp.
- [Jordan] That's a good one.
- [Rehka] That's really good.
- For me? Yay!
- And you.
Skin for everyone!
- Oh yeah.
- Would anyone else like
a piece of the action?
- Oh, how fun.
- I also want to say,
this is not toxic, so you can eat it.
- It's like you're an iPhone,
and I'm unboxing you.
- Yes!
Wait, the back is great.
Turn around for the back.
- [Rekha] That actually
would be a good title.
- Oh, turn around for the
back. Turn around for the back.
- [Jordan] Unboxing Paul?
- [Rehka] Unboxing Paul Robalino.
- [Jordan] Yeah.
- [Rehka] The back!
- [Jordan] Yeah.
- This absolutely rules.
- [Matt] Look at that.
- [Jordan] Oh, my mouth is watering.
- This feels amazing.
- Imagine if you were on
any kind of drug right now.
- Yeah, imagine if.
[everyone laughs]
- Yeah, Paul did $550
worth of drugs before this.
- Well, he sniffed a bunch of glue!
- [Sam] Oh my god, they're
coming off like fishnets!
- I don't know if anyone's
going to enjoy watching this,
but I like doing it.
I do wonder what the biggest
piece we've pulled off is.
- This is one leg.
- [Matt] That's one leg.
- Hot!
- [Jordan] Wow.
- This is working better
than I ever could've dreamed.
Thank you for helping
make my dream come true.
- Thank you. This is very satisfying.
- [Sam] Wow. How about it?
[all applauding]
- Rekha, Jordan, any regrets?
- No!
- No.
[everyone laughing]
- [Sam] Paul, what a triumph!
[relaxing elevator music]
Producers, it's time for our next pitch.
- [Announcer] Next, Grant's
pitch to the producers
is sure to make a big pop.
- I'm out.
[all laughing]
- Mingge, please?
- [Rehka] Hi, Mingge!
- [Jordan] Good to see you!
- [Grant] Welcome back.
Now, I'd like to do an
experiment with you, if I may.
- Okay.
- You're set?
- Yes.
[joints cracking]
- Now, would you call that
crack oddly satisfying?
- Grant, that was not oddly satisfying.
- It's not, you're absolutely
right. Thank you very much!
- I started out out,
and I'm somehow less in than I was before.
- Trapp, I'm offering you
the opportunity to create
the most oddly satisfying
bone cracking video ever made.
Body ASMR is how me and
millions of other people
get to sleep every night.
I am offering you the chance to pair me up
with a doctor of chiropractic medicine,
the most sensitive microphone technology
in Hollywood, California, and my back.
Now, if you're unfamiliar
with the art form,
you should know that a lot
of these chiropractors,
god bless them, they record
their videos with a USB mic,
or god forbid, an iPhone.
But we in show business
know that it can be better.
It can be louder. It can
be more oddly satisfying.
Producers, I'm asking for
$1,200 for this video.
With your help, I believe that I can
bring crack to the whole world.
- An epidemic, if you will.
- You mentioned that these
videos are used to fall asleep,
but in the same breath mentioned
how loud you would like it to be.
- You crack your back?
- Yes.
- Is it more or less satisfying
depending on how loud it is?
- Maybe what you're talking about,
and Mingge, feel free to correct me,
is sort of like a fidelity of sound.
It's like you want to hear all
those semitones in between.
- Yeah.
- Now, Grant, I don't know
if it has the potential for a
massively viral sort of thing.
I am interested in it, but I also worry
that my current portfolio
is just a man peeling skin.
- How much of you is in it?
- And can we have less?
- Something that you
should know about me is
I have really bad joints.
- Mm-hm.
- A lot of them make a lot of noise.
[joints cracking]
And you can have all sorts of loud cracks
all over the internet.
- I'm going to say I'm out.
- Jordan has established
that they are out.
Trapp and Rekha, do I hear
an offer from either of you?
- I'm sorry, I'm out.
Grant, if you had come out and
said that you had a new ASMR
to put people to sleep that
was just your opinions,
I'd be in.
- [Sam] Wow.
- But I think cracks doesn't do it for me.
- Here's something I would want.
I would like a crack counter
in the corner of the video.
- Mm!
- [Matt] To count the number of cracks.
Like, how high will this go?
- What if we were to say that if I hit
a certain number of cracks,
I get a lot of money?
- I don't find that satisfying.
- I think I could get 40 cracks.
- Our budget is $1,200.
How much would you like to put in escrow
for Grant to win if he
gets over 40 cracks?
- I think $1,700 is a fair
reward if I get to 40 cracks.
- One dollar.
- What do you think, Grant?
- I mean, yeah. I'll do it for a dollar.
- This is greenlit!
Congratulations, Grant!
Congratulations, Trapp!
- I'm happy to be in business with you.
- We're gonna corner the weird
body market on the internet.
- I'm Grant O'Brien and
I've been challenged
to get over 40 cracks at the chiropractor.
Let's see if I can do it.
Crack counter, please.
[joints cracking]
[Grant groaning]
Oh, that was wonderful.
- Ooh, and another one.
[joints cracking]
[Grant groaning]
- Oh, yeah. Wow!
[joints cracking]
[Grant groaning]
Ooh, yeah.
- Didn't even have to-
- Oh, wow.
[joints cracking]
[Grant groaning]
Ooh, yeah.
[joints cracking]
It went twice!
[joints cracking]
[Grant groaning]
Golly!
That feels great.
[joints cracking]
Ooh!
So that's 45, folks. Mission accomplished.
I've just gotten over 40
cracks at the chiropractor.
I get my prize of one dollar,
and my real prize of a slippery spine.
- Slippery spine?
- Slippery spine!
[relaxing elevator music]
- Producers, it's time for our next pitch.
- [Announcer] Next to the
stage is Johnny Stanton
with an idea that's
really got that dog in it.
- Let's go! Let's go, baby, game time!
Let's go! Let's go, yeah!
Yeah, let's go! Hell yeah!
Hello, producers.
- Johnny!
- Producers, it's me, Johnny Stanton,
Dropout personality and
professional football player.
Every year, the single most watched event
on American television is what?
- The Super Bowl!
- Can't say that. The
big game, that's right!
And every year, millions of
people go against the grain
and tune into its canine cousin.
What is that?
- The Puppy Bowl!
- But why fight the
undoubtedly cuter telecast
featuring man's best friend,
when you could instead
combine these events.
- Yes.
- [Johnny] Introducing
the Human Puppy Bowl.
- Yes.
- I, Johnny Stanton,
will field a roster of fellow
professional football players
to play a game of full
contact tackle football
wearing puppy costumes.
- I'm in.
[everyone laughing]
- I am asking for a budget of $3,500,
unless you want to pay more.
[Jordan and Sam laughing]
Who wants to be part of my team?
- How many players are you fielding?
- $3,500, I think, can get
us a handful of players
local to the Southern California area.
- I have two pitches.
One, can we have puppies take
the place of where humans are
in human costumes, in the audience-
- Wow!
- Dressed as humans?
- There's nothing against the rules.
- I could give you $4,000
and blow my whole budget.
- Rekha is in for $4,000.
Do I hear offers from
either Trapp or Jordan?
- I'm excited about this idea,
'cause the Puppy Bowl is very cute,
but it's not very compelling.
- More needs to happen.
- I'm in, and I'm trying to think
if there's any other way
to juice it up any more.
- Go in with me.
- The fun of this gets more fun
the more professional it feels.
I want to have the start,
you know, it's like, here's the roster!
And you see everyone.
♪ Ba da da, ba da ♪
- I want the graphics. I want-
- We can graphics package.
- I will say graphics package
for another $1,000,
bringing this to $5,000.
- Do you want to each spend 2,500?
- Yeah, I'm into that.
- Jordan, would you be willing
to get in on this at all?
- I really, from the Puppy
Bowl, just want the puppies,
and adult men being in
it takes away from me.
- Takes. Okay, understood.
- I do like you. You seem very charming.
- He's very nice.
- Great guy.
- And I'm more of a basketball guy, also.
- There's so many elements
here that's checking.
I am in, and I will work with Rekha.
- Thank you so much.
- Hey, no problem. [woofing]
- I really appreciate you.
Really appreciate you.
All right!
- [Sam] Wow! Incredible!
Another greenlight, and
$2,500 away from both these-
- I got no money, almost.
- Hey, I'm Johnny Stanton.
This is the Human Puppy Bowl.
[puppies howling]
- [Announcer] Well, the stage is set,
and the vaccinations are up to date.
Let's go down to the field
for the starting lineup.
- Johnny Stanton, Golden Retriever.
- Ryan Jones, chihuahua.
- Justin Cheadle, rottweiler.
- Justin Gunn, Australian Ridgeback.
- Ryan Nelson, mutt.
- JR Tavai, the Great Dane.
- [Announcer] Belly Rubs lining up.
Empty backfield. Defense showing blitz.
- Who's a good boy? Who's a good boy?
- [Announcer] And a reminder:
- Hut!
- [Announcer] Any and all the
players are up for adoption
and looking for a happy home.
Oh my goodness!
He's of the leash!
- Let's go!
- [Announcer] Touchdown, Rubs!
I mean, that is just an
outstanding effort by Justin,
but that defense needs to be better.
Bad boy.
Changed your mind? We'll reverse it!
Chompsky's spay and neuter!
Justin and Junior, of course,
former teammates who once
used to share a locker
at Petco dog and puppy training class.
Looks like we're going
to see a return here.
The Reactive Behaviors fielded at the two.
- Squirrel!
- [Announcer] Oh, but there's daylight!
Just a lights out performance
from both teams today.
But most importantly, they're
all going to be exhausted
on the couch for the rest of the day.
On behalf of all the fans
here at Barry Boneyard,
oh, big stretch!
[relaxing elevator music]
- It's time for our next pitch.
- [Announcer] Next up, Lily
and Izzy present a batshit idea
that I can't believe we went ahead with.
- Hello, producers.
There's only one thing
people want to see online,
and that is-
- Perverted stuff!
- [Lily] That's right.
- And parasocial stuff!
- Okay, that is two things
that people want to see online,
and we think we've got the
perfect pitch that combines both.
- You all have pretty discerning palates.
- Yeah.
- You can tell the difference
between Coke and Pepsi and RC Cola.
- Me specifically, yes.
- Yes, but can you tell the difference
between Izzy, Becca
Scott, and my breast milk?
- That's right, this is
a breast milk taste test.
[Sam chortling]
Producers, if you greenlight this,
you will play it here and now.
- How much? How much?
- All the money in your bank!
- I'll do it.
[Lily squeals in delight]
- We haven't even
finished reading our copy.
- You don't need to.
It's fine, I'll do it.
- For the cost of our perfect breast milk-
- The life source of our children!
- Which is priceless,
if you think about it!
We were seeking all of
Jordan's money for it.
- We can't counter-bid $6,000.
- You could go in together.
- We can both combine-
- Yeah, you both get a little slurp.
- Producers, we have gone to
the trouble of pasteurizing
this breast milk in order
to make it safe to drink.
- All natural!
- This video is Jordan
taking a little taste of each
and trying to identify whose is whose?
- Yes.
- Yes.
- I think this is an excellent idea.
- I do, too.
- I simply don't want to do it.
- And Rekha?
- I actually don't know if
I can compete with Jordan
for a few reasons, one of them being,
Jordan is a professional
food taste tester,
and I think their tasting of it
would be imperative to the project.
- If you do this for $6,144,
it will clear you out.
- I love both of you.
I want to give all my money,
because it's important to
support women at their jobs.
- Yeah!
- That's going to make it go viral.
That's going to make it go viral.
- Domestic labor is labor!
- Sounds like we have a deal.
For $6,144, Jordan, this
pitch belongs to you.
Let's get you behind the taste test.
- One on either side, please.
- Shirts off.
- I'm trying to see if I
can guess which breast milk
belongs to some of my best friends.
[Jordan slurping]
[crew giggling]
Okay, the middle one is the sweetest,
and Lily does have a huge sweet tooth.
- And breast milk is made from blood.
- Okay. I'm not a doctor.
[Jordan slurping]
Okay, very wholesome,
very light, very fresh.
[everyone hums thoughtfully]
[Jordan slurping]
- You are drinking a lot.
- I'm thirsty!
[Sam laughing]
This one is the most milky.
Okay, you're young, you're fun.
I think yours is the lighter one.
- I'm young?
- You're young and you're fun.
- Yeah. Young mommy.
- Young mommy.
- Young mommy.
- And then I think Becca
seems very healthy to me.
- Once again, Jordan, your answers.
- Lily.
Izzy.
Becca.
- You are 100% correct.
- I did it! I knew it!
- Congratulations.
- I knew it! I knew it!
- Knew it!
- I knew it!
- Knew it!
[relaxing elevator music]
- Lily, Izzy, incredible pitch.
Thank you for... [laughing]
Producers, it's time to
check back in with Erika.
- Sam.
- Erika.
- Sam.
- Erika!
- Know I love you.
- What have we done?
- [Rekha] Yes!
[all applauding]
That's nice. That's nice.
- I love you!
- I know one thing that
does well on Dropout.
You getting absolutely f*cking roasted.
- Yes!
- This is gorgeous work,
my friend. It's so legible.
- [Rekha] He probably had
to practice that before.
- Yeah.
- Other clients.
- I don't agree with it.
- He said, he was like-
- Hey, I'll shake your hand.
- He was like, "Who is this?"
And I was like, "The gentleman
in the pinstripe suit."
He was like, "Oh, I like that guy."
- Aw!
- I was like, "Me too."
- So sweet.
How about that?
- And remember that Erika
will still have this for "Game Changer".
- I have to explain to the
nice people at PlayStation
what this means and who you are.
- [Rekha] That's nice.
- Money well spent.
- Brands, if you're watching,
you too can do this!
[relaxing elevator music]
- Producers, it's time
for your next pitch.
- [Announcer] Here comes Izzy, again,
with a wholly original idea,
but hole is spelled H-O-L-E.
- Let's talk some "Game
Changer" facts, shall we?
What is its number one episode format?
Sam Says! That episode's
most viral contribution?
Mine, baby!
- Propose a visual effect to go here.
- A bunch of buttholes popping up.
- The lady said buttholes, Sam.
- My pitch to you, producers,
even more buttholes.
- How much?
- A number that feels
good to me is $3,000.
- What would be different this time?
- What do you want? You want
a butthole on your face?
- No.
- Right now.
You want a butthole on my face? Right now.
We've got a butthole over my
face talking as I'm talking.
We've got two buttholes right
here talking as my hands.
- I do worry about diminishing returns.
- You know what? I agree with you.
However, did you think
that you could be sitting in a butthole?
I could do a little dance. Boop!
- Well, because the thing is-
- Boop!
- I feel like we gotta top-
- You gotta top a butthole?
- You gotta top a butthole.
- I could be doing rainbow
buttholes, juggling.
- It's so funny because if
they don't edit them in,
you're just crazy-
[all laughing]
- That's right, if this
gets greenlit, we see that,
and if not, it doesn't.
- [Rekha] Yeah, this is just insane. Yeah.
This clip could do well.
- I'm making it worse.
- No, no. Actually, I like this.
- Now you guys want the
viral video to be me dancing,
thinking there are
buttholes, but there aren't.
- They're just somewhere
a little away from where Izzy's doing it.
That's kind of funny.
- I want to see pure artistry.
- You want to see veins
and stuff, you freak.
- No, I want there to
be a portal that opens
and a butthole comes out of the butthole-
- And it takes you out.
- You know how people talk about "Avatar"
where they're like, the
story kind of sucked,
but wow, you can't deny the effects.
I want the "Avatar" version.
- That does strike me as
more expensive, Trapp.
- [Matt] Of course.
- And you do have $5,700.
- Oh my god!
- Are you willing to
commit any more to this?
- You should give all your money to that.
- For a clip of me right now,
buttholes sh**ting out of my butt.
- I would go in on this.
He doesn't need me, but
I would go in on it.
- You're both in on this idea.
- Yes.
- But we will say by
another $1,000, so $4,000.
- Okay, 4,000. I'll go 50/50 with Trapp.
I'll give $2,000 to that.
- Izzy, how do you feel about this idea?
- If we win-
- Hey, I'll take it!
- Then nothing here.
- Woo! Woo!
- In that case, Trapp and Rekha, congrats.
Izzy, congrats. Wow, congratulations, all.
- The Declaration of
Independence is in my butthole?
[relaxing elevator music]
- Producers, it's time
to hear your final pitch.
- [Announcer] Last to the stage is Vic,
who's set to remove the
last of the competition
in their brutal ascent to the
top of the Dropout empire.
- Producers, I think my pitch
should be pretty obvious at this point.
My pitch is that Brennan
Lee Mulligan quits Dropout.
So if we can please
bring out my prop here.
In this video, Brennan will claim
not to only be leaving Dropout,
but also be leaving D&D altogether
to focus on his first love,
which is making American Girl doll shoes.
Okay, so as you can see,
we have a couple of samples,
examples right here.
- Really nice.
- Something a little bit more intricate.
- [Jordan] Oh, I love the swans.
- He's making these by hand out of clay.
- I love this.
- He's putting the time and attention
that he put into his
craft into his crafts.
- Yeah.
- First off,
those farewell videos get
tens of millions of views.
If we title a YouTube video,
"This Is Why I'm Leaving Dropout,"
immediately we're going to
get people to click through.
Producers, for talent and production fees,
I am seeking a budget of...
Sam, there's a number on the screen,
and I'm going to do something
that's a little off book.
- Okay.
- I'm seeking $20,000.
[Sam laughing]
[Vic giggling]
- I'm curious how you think
this is going to work.
- Hold on. I'm seeking $20,000.
I'm not great at math,
but I know these numbers don't add up.
Sam, I'm coming to you humbly, asking you,
the executive producer of
this show, to please...
Fund it.
- Fund it! Fund it!
Fund it!
- Her leg fell off.
- Fund it! Fund it!
- We're talking about something that
begins as Brennan's exit video,
and ends up an episode of "Chef's Table".
- Brennan sort of on a table,
and we just see a hand
pushing up off a table,
and then it fades to black.
- All right, who has something to offer me
in exchange for $20,000?
- I will put up videos that corroborate
that Brennan has left Dropout.
- Interesting.
- Cryptic posts.
- A selfie with Brennan
saying, "Gonna miss this guy."
- Sponsored ads for Brennan's shoes.
- I will do that ad on my podcast.
- Now we're talking.
- How does this work, Sam?
Are we equal partners in this?
- Are we all so committed to this-
- Yeah.
- ...that we are willing
to all go in together-
- Yeah.
- ...with our respective promises-
- Yeah.
- Knowing that if we do that
and make this happen, it will mean that
the resulting points are a complete wash?
- Yes.
- Yeah.
- I think that's beautiful.
- I love that. I think that's
the perfect way to end.
- I think that that is art.
- Trapp, it's up to you. You
still have the most money.
- I also think this video should get made.
- In that case, we're all
going into business together
into American Girl doll shoes.
- I couldn't be happier.
- As created by Brennan Lee
Mulligan. Vic, incredible pitch.
- I'm here, but I'm not involved
at all, so this is great.
- So stupid and funny.
- Okay.
[Brennan sighs morosely]
Hey, g*ng.
So this is the hardest video
I've ever had to make.
Effective immediately,
I will no longer be with Dropout.tv.
There is no bad blood
between us. There's no drama.
You may be thinking to
yourself, "Why, Brennan? Why?"
You deserve to know why.
As of today,
I have dedicated myself to
the craft and profession
of making custom shoes
for American Girl dolls.
[uplifting music]
[screams powerfully] This is me!
Dance shoes, cowboy boots, galoshes,
brogues, wingtips, spats.
You name a shoe, I'll show
you an American Girl doll shoe
that's the type of shoe
that is the shoe you said.
Kit, Melody, Josefina.
Have you seen what they're working with?
Dog sh*t, bro! Shoes are a*s!
Not historically
accurate, disproportional,
plastic seam on the bottom.
Looking at these doll shoes
makes me so pissed I could spit.
Daniel Day-Lewis left
Hollywood to make shoes.
And yeah, he's a
tremendously overrated actor.
But I'm gonna make smaller
shoes, and I'm better than him.
This comes to us from a
bison encampment in Utah
where they ethically
t*rture and slaughter bison.
Look, I love and will always
love my Dropout family.
But sometimes, your heart
sings a song so loud
that your soul can't not hear it.
I promised myself I would cry,
and it's just not happening.
So for now, it's gotta
be bye, intrepid heroes.
It's gotta be un-credible.
It's gotta be hell no.
So please investigation
check out my website,
BrennansAmericanGirlDollShoes.com.
Izzy wants to know where I am.
[relaxing elevator music]
- The scores at the end of
our game we don't yet know.
Tune in one month from now
to see this episode updated
with stats and a winner.
Until then, I'm Sam Reich,
reminding you that it's
the end of episode.
For that reason, I'm out. Goodnight.
[triumphant music]
