At This Point, I'm Just Tired of Ye
Season 5, Episode 34Just with another mind-freaking incident, the crew paused and took time to reflect on their situation.
Chuckles found a pictogram note with Lady High Hill expressing her love for him, and this gave him the courage to move on.
He told Lady High Hill his feelings for her, and the pair performed a ritualistic flirting dance, bobbing heads included.
Patches accompanied on the flute. It was a tender scene until Squish shot the uncle Muddy Skyluck.
After several unsuccessful judo chops and leg kicks, they were finally able to tame the beast.
The crew escaped, only to find, or rather find out, that Dee Dee and Tawny were missing, and they had been taken captivity by the ghost crew invading the castle.
There, a strange figure in a gray robe questioned Patches on his choices, and if he had succeeded in what they had asked.
All he could remember was that he was given a mission to stop Captain Fitzclyde and steal the ghostly butler.
The crew put aside their hurt at Patches' betrayal and fought off the devil's eye for them from earlier.
Will they let their quirky nature divide them, or will they work together to defeat the evil captain?
And it's just you guys wised up, and you're not running into the door before slamming it shut now.
But you also hear, like, the distant screams of, like, people are engaged in fighting and conflict.
But you do also hear what sounds like footprint, like a lot of footsteps kind of in the castle below you.
So, Yar, gentlemen, I am going to go up to the top of this tower, save the world, and get a nice ship.
And I'm not sure which one is which and both of them might explode or both of them might be okay.
I feel like that's going to blow up in our faces, you know, more literally than I would like at some point.
And, you know, patches, you start off really strong at first, just like storming up there, you know, arms swinging.
But you do find this, basically just this kind of pop-up cart with this just little old lady sitting in it, standing in it.
And she, like, you kind of hear her rummage around her cart for a second when she comes back.
If you're willing to spend half a coin for one cup of lemonade, I will consider myself a very happy person.
So when we were in the kitchen mind freak room, is it possible that I saw something that I knew the captain was allergic to?
I'm going to say that in the kitchen, you probably did see some sort of like foul toxins and poisons and stuff.
I'm not going to go so far as to say like we've had this conversation about him having allergies.
But if you want to see something like that was very clearly like poisonous and you nipped a little bit of it, I'd be fine with that.
Well, he rushed up here, and I tried the lemonade trick, but you know, it just kind of just blew me off.
Do you remember when you were trying to get that wire, and you bit the coin in like an eighth?
You can see the port where the shopping center was, with all the markets and all the carts.
And it's just this large bay that kind of seems like it almost like funnels into this one point.
And with the exception of Tawny and Dee, who he kind of has in either hand, kind of like at their scruff, like holding him.
And then there's one that's standing behind him that's just like a rather intimidating guy with his arms crossed.
So his plan, just so we're all clear, he needs to get close enough so that when he plays his harp, the acoustics of the place radiate out.
I'm going to say you run to the one closest to you, which we're going to say is on the right-hand side.
So I'm going to say in your case, you can tell if these things are going to blow up or not.
Like if you try messing with it, if you, if anybody tries like running at it or, you know, stomping on it, wrecking it, whatever, it will blow up.
Kind of sounds like you don't remember what kind of bomb you built and you're like, oh, that's what it was.
You really, when you did make these, it was kind of like a crunch thing you were trying to do to like appease the captain before you got too mad.
Because I got like three quarters of the way through and then he said, well, actually I need it now.
Well, no, I mean, that's part of it a little bit just because there's, that's what I built stuff out of things that can explode.
He has not weakened his grip on Dede, but he hasn't tried to toss him or her over the edge.
Um, and, and you throw it and it just like completely biffs this guy, like just completely misses him.
Um, and now you're, he, he like eyes the, the chain hook and he, I, or the lightning hook and he knows what it is.
Uh, maybe the captains use them on him and he like turns and look at you and he goes, uh, this is the drunk ghost.
Uh, and the other ghost is kind of like staggered a little bit where it's like stepping back.
I'd like to tell him to DD to tell her to go, to go attack the ghost, uh, that's got Daugherty.
I know you've used your electro hook, but I don't know if you've ever actually used it to catch a ghost, which is what they're supposed to be for.
Oh, it's a two handed connected suitable for grappling a spirit and dragging it into a spirit bottle.
The ghost takes like you go to pull him and he reaches around and grabs on to the other end and pulls it and grabs you instead.
And now you're going to be directly in front of the ghost you were trying to hit, who has now decided to turn its attention to you.
The ghost that was originally going to fight Squish has now decided it's going to attack you patches instead.
So it's resistance prowess because you're now going to be in a one on one kind of fight with him.
Well, so when it pulled you, I'm going to say that you dropped it because otherwise, you know, you had to be engaged.
I was going to mind meld with, yeah, but now that that's done, I think I'm going to tell Dee Dee to attack the captain.
And, like, as soon as she jumps, he just, like, kind of stiff arms her and just grabs her and just tosses her to the side.
Is it going to, is it, wait, we're, okay, so we're within earshot of each other, obviously.
Oh, well, then I'm going to run, I'm going to maneuver to get closer to the Juckles so that he can't hear me, because I'm a very private individual, and I don't like being able to overcoat.
We agreed we were going to be, we were going to support him on his path to recovery from addiction to fire.
Are you going to, what are you doing, Patches, to tell Hotman that he needs to blow stuff up?
Roll your command or your attune, whichever you prefer to try to convince Hotman that this is what you want.
I was going to say for a ghost pirate, for an amateur ghost pirate, I got two ghosts on the field doing two separate things to destroy this harp.
Now, something you have neglected to remember, Patches, is that the captain is also a ghost pirate.
But the captain is now busy trying to fend off these fireballs that are just coming at him.
And he's like, yeah, exactly, doing his best to kind of, like, fend off with one arm while he protects the harp with the other.
All right, you run and you just, like, I'm imagining he just, like, kind of, like, runs and, like, belly crows.
In a very, in a very embarrassing moment, his pants are suddenly, the captain's pants are suddenly down at his ankles.
Like, like all comic book villains, he has, like, red, white boxers with, like, red little hearts on them.
He, like, looks around at his surroundings, the captain, and you kind of see him doing an assessment.
And as he does, so these three demons who, or ghosts who had some sort of distinguished form, just become these, like, large and just muscular sort of sailors.
So the demon that had been stumbled, that you had shot, the demon that once had Tawny but then got loose, the demon that was currently fighting you.
When you say his name, Neelix appears, and he's appearing in his traditional butler outfit.
He starts to, like, just get enraged, and you could feel the sort of heat coming off of him.
The good news is you've done a backflip better than you ever will in the rest of your life.
And so I jump towards him, and I do a quick, like, you know, one of those quick little slashes.
You cut the strap, and right as you do, that you see the harp start to fall from his body, and all of a sudden, Neelix is there, and he just grabs the harp.
I imagine my sword play is very out of practice, but I keep managing to like dodge, like block his attacks.
But in doing so, yeah, I'm going to have you take a stress for that, and you're going to land up on the floor next to DeeDee.
Like, maybe she has been sleeping this whole time, and then, like, she turns, and she sees you.
Patches, you're still standing and grappling with the captain, although he did just punch you real good in the stomach.
No, and it's just the very, like, he happens like, yeah, and he throws the fireball, and it very briefly, like, singes the captain's pants, and he is pulled away from his direct fight from you, but it doesn't really cause any issues because, you know, it's just his pants.
The captain sees this, and you can feel him break, where he's like, he looks around, and he sees Hotman throwing his fireballs.
You're recovering from a gut punch, and he sees Chuckles in the corner, standing over by this, in the corner, standing by the speaker, and something in his brain just breaks, where he's just like, I'm done.
And he's like, I hope you finished my speakers, because I'm really just having, I'm just done at this point.
Now, obviously, there's got to be some sort of jack that he puts into the harp, to connect up these speakers.
I didn't really give him any really clear expressions, any clear instructions, other than, when I give you a signal, you take the harp and you run.
Okay, so, while he's hiding up there, the captain is still going to see you, Chuckles, messing with the speakers, and he kind of just starts walking straight towards you.
He reaches you, Chuckles, and he's going to reach for you to kind of, like, grab you by your scrubs, and toss you, just like, chuck you further back, towards the mess.
Laying on, laying on, as he's laughing on it, as he's flailing on his back, and vomit, just, just caked on his face.
I mean, I, he just picks you up, and he's going to toss you, um, um, with Squish, and Dee, um, he's going to check his speakers over.
Let's have you take two stress, and then as you go through the air, uh, you're going to land, uh, next to Squish, and Dee Dee on the ground.
He has suspected that you have done, something, but they look exactly the same as when you first made these, because again, you did originally rig them to explode.
He turns, he clocks where Neelix is on the other side of the balcony, and he starts like power strolling towards him, power stomping towards him.
I'm going to wait until he gets the harp, and then he goes over by the speakers, and I'll blow it then.
Uh, this Tempest is, I can push myself to do one of the following, and either, unleash a stroke of lightning as a weapon, summon a storm in your immediate vicinity, uh, roaring winds, torrential rain.
Yeah, I like to start standing up, and I start, start, like, unleashing Tempest winds out of nowhere.
Yeah, so, like, in the most amazing thing you've probably ever done, the only magical, truly magical thing you've ever done, this blast of wind, just, just, just, straight, is it from your fingertips?
Yeah, it's from my fingertips, like, I'm like, I'm like, Mickey Mouse from that sorcerer's cartoon, like, where it's like, you blast him, right in the face, and he's just like, hit with this gust of wind, he's going to stumble backwards, back towards the speaker, and it's difficult for him to walk, and you guys are also, chuckles and squish, you are also feeling the effects of this wind, not to the same degree, but you physically can feel this as well, this huge, just, torrent of wind, and the captain's like, reaching, trying to step forward, but it's like, you know, somebody walking in a hurricane, where they just, they just can't, you know, yeah, I'm going to blow him up, all right, roll your rack, all right, you, do you press a button, or, oh yeah, it's a button on my, my radio, and I close my eyes, and I, I push the button, and, there's a huge, explosion, just, you hear this kind of like, twang, and pop of, just all this electrical, that just, fireballs, explodes, whoa, and, and it hits, and there's just kind of like, you know, the stereo, there's a mushroom cloud, for a moment, as with all of your explosions, yeah, that's kind of my trademark, your signature mushroom cloud, when the dust clears, and the wind stops blowing, the captain is laying, on the ground, unable to move, the ghosts, that were previously, stopping Tawny, and everyone else, from kind of, you know, engaging, they look at each other, and then they just kind of, fade away, can I, run up and grab the harp, from what, yeah, just steal it from, from Neelix, so he can play, and become evil, no, no, yeah, if you, yeah, go ahead, and grab it, if you want, are you going to try, and like, just grab it from him, I just want to grab it, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, roll your skirmish for that, because he's definitely, gonna like, not want to give this to you, he's been told to keep it, all right, and I'm gonna push myself, okay, well, shit, he just holds it, above his head, and like, you do one of those, like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, because he can fly, sir, sir, the demon, sir, yes, no, patches is, he's calling the patches, I'm distracted, because I'm walking up to the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the body, or whatever, I'm walking up to the, Captain Fitzclyde, and you're gonna poke him with your raper, well, I'm kind of shocked that he's actually on the ground, like, maybe dead, I'm gonna try and investigate, and make sure he is dead, throw your study, or survey, whichever, he is not dead, he is out, though, can I search his pockets?
You find some odds and ends, like a dirty handkerchief, um, some, yeah, some like ukulele strings, um, some, some coins, nothing really super exciting.
No, but it is, it is, uh, I have to, you know, punch my hand through it to make it pop back out.
Neelix is just a ball, like hovering out of, I want to, I'm just going to keep, or I'm just going to tell Neelix that I want to throw the harp over the edge of the, the tower.
Well, if it falls and breaks, then it won't be the most powerful weapon in the world anymore.
Um, the three of you kind of gather around the edge, waiting and waiting and waiting to hear some sort of smash.
look, I, I don't really want to do this, but since I'm dying, the kahuna, you can have her.
Or am I just in a peanut bag gallery in the back and just saying to myself, like, they're going to take it anyway.
He kind of like, holds, like, tries to grab your hand to hold it, and he goes, listen, you were one of the best cabin boys I've ever had.
Listen, I know things were uneven between all of us, and sometimes we were friends, and sometimes we were enemies, but we were always one crew.
yes and you sorry hold on you board the bow you board the kahuna the kahuna is now yours Neelix stands beside you patches and he goes now where to sir as captain of the ship co-captain squish juggles this is quite orthodox it is it is I'm trying something new I think it's got to be revolutionary I think it's got to change the world it's going to change the ship that's for sure all great all great countries should have three rulers all great that's why we have three popes I never really thought about why we have three popes where would you gentlemen like to go don't you have to deliver Neelix I was making sure I was listening to you guys's needs and you know I'm trying to be cool here yeah I'm just gonna go to sleep yeah I'm gonna well I'm just gonna lay down for a little while oh all right well I'm gonna set sail towards uh lockport yeah okay whatever just let me sleep dang just let me lay down I didn't have to fucking argue that one too hard did I I'll argue when I wake up argue over there you're at the helm I'm at the helm patches you're at the helm and you you set your sails out for lockport it's going to be a little bit of a journey um the three of you are watching uh teacher rose kind of fade in the background and then you hear behind you the foot heavy footsteps heavy boots somebody walking down the stairs and as you turn there is the ghostly vision of captain fitz oh no now he's a ghost get a bottle to put him in I don't have a spare bottle just any bottle will do and that's why you always have a spare bottle boys you never know when you'll need to catch a ghost and he uh from his ghostly flat leg pulls out a ghostly flask and just downs it in one big swag patches it's like gets three quarters of the way up the stairs and he's like guys that lemonade hit me hard he's gotta run back down the stairs was there a bathroom down there just go off the side of the go off the side of the tower you don't need to go all the way back down you're probably gonna drink more lemonade you could be a never ending circle this is why you don't drink the lemonade before you fight drink it after i don't know whenever i'm drinking kind of like lemonade margaritas that's a type of lemonade right isn't it it's like a alcoholic limeade yeah it's mexican mexican lemonade lemonade lemonade
