Molly's card is very terrifyingly accurate given the context of this conversation if this turns out to be true. albeit the card read itself was early.

Arguably, the "clue" she had apparently already found was Beau. Beau, who later stole the letter that led them to the Gentleman. Beau, who later still got the password to the Evening Nip from that webbed-up thug in the sewers of Zadash (post-blink spider encounter). Beau, whom Jester had known for all of a day by that point. Such is the power of carny bullshit. EDIT: AHHH IT GOES DEEPER! BEAU WAS THE ONE WHO CRACKED THE JOKE ABOUT THE GENTLEMAN, THAT LED JESTER TO ASK HER MOM AHHHH!

My favourite thing about this is just the image of classy and reserved Marion having to deal with this massive revelation and a bunch of hyperkinetic, heavily armed, extremely over-enthusiastic teens/twenty-somethings freaking out about her decades old romance. That and watching Marisha's reactions to all this. She still has my favourite facial expression journeys of the entire cast.

In older editions, it was possible to perform all kinds of divination spells if you had a pinch of someone's hair, an amount of their skin, some of their spit, or finger-nails, or their blood. Nott doesn't know the particulars, but was probably trying to suggest Marianne try some magic on the spit. Except, the Ruby of the Sea isn't a magic user, beyond her base tiefling abilities.

I like how everyone reacts how most players react when a bombshell like this drops. It's very human of them, and I like it.

I love how this whole time Fjord never used mask of many faces to just look like the gentleman
Just the journey of facial expressions on Marisha’s face is a whole mood.
The best part is with a Disguise Self they could have confirmed it earlier than they did
Marisha kills me in this scene. Her reactions are amazing.
Matt is such a good world builder, he basically had this exact conversation planned before the mighty nein knew about the gentleman
"This is the best episode of Maury ever!"XD my sides
They immediately forget most of them can cast disguise self. Travis at will.
I love that Sam actually gets Matt to break character with the vial of spit question lol
You can see Matt's eyes jump back and forth like his brain knew this was coming and how to prepare for this. He is amazing at hiding plot.
6:05 table completely loses its s^^t
“Your dad’s name is Bob!?”
I genuinely love how when Marisha puts her hands on Liam and Travis's shoulders Liam puts a hand to his ear preparing to shield it from a Marisha quality freak out.

I have watched this scene like ten times since first watching the campaign at the beginning of Quarantine and every time it gets funnier and funnier. Watching Travis, Sam and Marisha clue on really fast and even Taliesin though he plays it off like he doesn't for the sake of rping Cad. Laura's acting is the funniest of all. Poor Jester. What a way to find out this information!

love that they played pictionary with this despite many of them having desguise self
I wonder if Marisha, being married to Matt irl, knew his mind well enough to put it out there and see what happened.
Jester is so good in the episode when she opens her eyes so wide. And the way she says yes at 1:10 is cute. Travis is a lucky man to have such an amazing girl. I'm really jealous of him.
