Transcript Ep45 2:30:06 Scanlan, how do you do it?

This is one of the best insights we get into Scanlan's core philosophy. Not happy-go-lucky so much as comforting nihilism. In being irreverent towards death, he accepts its inevitability and enjoys what he can. At 2:31:26, Scanlan says, "Everything before this was not as good. This is better, that's why. It's very simple. You had … Continue reading Transcript Ep45 2:30:06 Scanlan, how do you do it? →

Scene Cut Ep79 3:14:42 Thordak flies into the hole, Vax makes a choice

Analysis: My main reason for this (masochistically long) scene cut is to look at why Vax attacked Raishan. I’ve included a handful of other scenes that also show how Vox Machina felt about Raishan. They show that no one trusts Raishan. They were all keenly aware, from the beginning, that the moment Thordak died they … Continue reading Scene Cut Ep79 3:14:42 Thordak flies into the hole, Vax makes a choice →
