## Loop 3

### Pre-Loop Setup

#### Do-Over

Emmy called for **Heads.** The result was **Heads** so a do-over was awarded.

### Deaths and Revives

Everybody died because there was a Weather 20.

## Loop 4

### Pre-Loop Setup

#### Do-Over

### The Game Starts

#### **The Morning Begins**

Sweet Potato wakes up with the brain cell, being able to feel the presence of Brie the Ghost Horse. Alto Goeman wakes up in alert mode and gets himself ready for the morning. Brie the Ghost Horse trips over nothing and dies. The group decide to use The Do-Over to bring Brie back to life, still as a Ghost Horse. Brie possesses a suit of armour in order to walk around the house. Sweet Potato picks up his purple mouse by the tail and carries it through into the kitchen. He goes to the cupboard to get some cat food and attempts to get himself some breakfast.

Mother asks Sweet Potato if he wants any breakfast and he slips into her accent by mistake, which upsets her. Mother offers him some cat food which he accepts. Alto Goeman checks he has all of his equipment with him and slowly walks downstairs. Mother explains she has no idea why Brie the Ghost Horse is in the house. Mother asks for a Number 6 scratch card, which she explains was eliminated in the Great Number War of 1990, which is never expanded upon. Mother berates Brie the Ghost Horse for no reason.

Sweet Potato tries to butter Mother up by rubbing his head against her leg and asking for money. Mother only has £9 but reveals the scratch card is £14. She gifts Sweet Potato some cabbage flavoured cat food. Mother makes Alto Goeman a cup of tea at his request, some cat milk for Sweet Potato and some Ghost Milk for Brie.

```
"I haven't got any sugar cubes but I can give you some ... ghost ... milk, I guess" - Mother

```

Brie tries to drink the Ghost Milk and it spills everywhere. Brie rolls an Unfair 20, but wins with a 19 and doesn't spill on the Ghost Milk. Everyone enjoys their tea and milk, Alto Goeman asks for more so Mother makes another cup of tea, cat milk saucer and container of Ghost Milk. She finds a Thermos and rolls an Unfair 20 whilst pouring the hot tea into the thermos. Emmy, acting as the aggressor, rolls a 6 but Mother rolls a 4 - her hands fall off and she melts to death. Because Mother is dead, the game cannot be won!

## Trivia

* This is the first episode that Alex edited
* This is the first episode that's part of a batch recording session
* This is the first time a Weather 20 was rolled. Eddie deemed that a new loop should start regardless of using a do-over, however in future games a do-over is allowed to be used after a Weather 20.
* This is the beginning of the Snowy 20 curse - Weather 20's tend to happen on Snow.
* There is a reference made to the Sit-Canned Podcast in this episode, which Emmy and Eddie co-host.
* This is the first episode to contain more than one loop.
* This is the shortest episode of Budgens and Dragons to date.
* Mother does not say 'I've Got A Little Task For You' in this episode.
* Emmy references Cameron and Cannibal De Hells in this episode by saying "I know we don't have as many pockets as we did before" - this is a rule break which was missed by Eddie during recording. Alex picked up on it in the edit, but it was ultimately decided that as this was the Beta Phase of the show, it would be ignored.
* This is the first time Mother dies on screen.
* This is also the first time another character was indirectly responsible for Mother's death.
* This is the first episode to have a post credits scene
