I know it's such a cliche at this point to the point of garnering eye rolls, but we really cannot lose sight of the fact that 2x97 is the Most Episode of All Time. You cannot ignore Essek in that episode, obviously, but honestly the fact that that happened only serves to highlight how buckwild everything else was. That was when Veth got her body back. That was when Caleb first directly set his sights on Ludinus. That was when Fjord tried to ask Jester on a date and instead ending up thirdwheeling Yasha and Beau, who WERE essentially on a date. That was when Jester locked Sharpe on the balcony. That was when Cad got Beau SO high and Fjord was forced to babysit. That was when Fjord and Yasha told Marius he had to kill someone to stay on the crew.

If any ONE of these things had happened on top of the Essek reveal, it would've been notable or memorable, but no, the BREADTH of unhinged happenings in that episode is actually stunning.

#critical role #mighty nein #genuinely just. INSANE episode #there is nothing not unhinged in that episode #weren't there also jokes about Marion thinking they were having an orgy. like i don't even remember.#I've definitely written this post before but I'll DO IT AGAIN #like it does sometimes feel like over time people gloss over the fact that this episode has SO much #cuz a lot of the fandom remembers it as the essek reveal episode #and that IS a major turn in the plot of the narrative but #it's really like. one of SO MANY THINGS #also honestly can we all just take a minute to rewatch that conversation with Ludinus at the party.#i feel like it would improve a lot of the c3 discourse.
