Short filmTranscript
00:00We have food out here, and we're trying to get people, trying to recruit assistants,
00:18so hopefully some people will answer the call and do scat things.
00:23I'll admit that for all I say it, I haven't fully adjusted to working with a smaller team,
00:28but I'm liking what I'm seeing when it comes to people finding items they like
00:33and taking off in all sorts of different directions.
00:35Roll up a car.
00:37Roll up.
00:41500 points.
00:42I mean, Tom, 20 points.
00:43Wait, wait, wait.
00:49You've never tried lighting your hair on fire?
00:51No.
00:52OK.
00:54We got to feed mother again.
00:56Oh, we got the Relatio Cherry Gatorade, Scarry, and Pink Lemonade.
01:02Let's do it.
01:02I have this one.
01:03Tom, what pair of heads?
01:04Wait.
01:04I have Relatio Cherry.
01:05No way.
01:06Yeah.
01:07This is huge.
01:08Can you text me the list of items?
01:10I guess I can see it in the Scav Mother channel.
01:12Jennifer, I have a quick question.
01:14How does the Scav Mother thing work?
01:18I have no idea.
01:20I just got some texts about it, like, oh, God, all the time.
01:23Item 103, the Scav Mother is hungry, and you do not want to disappoint her this close
01:28to Mother's Day.
01:29When she posts her cravings in the Discord, you would do well to assemble and respond with
01:33her cursed concoction as quickly as possible.
01:36Is there Starry in the Zen Englishes?
01:41Check.
01:42Go check for Starry.
01:43Be warned, her cravings are as unpredictable as they are unhinged.
01:46Five, three, two points for first, second, and third.
01:50Pink, gold nade, new chances to win that.
01:52I have an favorite.
01:53Do you have any of this stuff?
01:54Oh my God.
01:55I don't think you have to call a nade one, any of this.
01:57Love it.
01:58I don't think so.
01:59I don't think it's worth it.
02:01Yeah, Airhead's right there.
02:03Yeah, okay.
02:04There is no Starry, but there is where that's not...
02:07There's Sprite.
02:08That's not Starry.
02:10They do not have Starry here, which could be a problem.
02:14In the interest of submitting something, I'm going to grab that's Sprite.
02:18Come on, Katie.
02:19We're going on a trip.
02:19We're going on a trip.
02:20We're going on a trip.
02:21Okay, where can we go to get Starry?
02:23There's CVS and there's Walgreens up by 53rd.
02:26Hey, for Magnus.
02:28This is, like, this is real.
02:30This is nerve-wracking.
02:32Don't be...
02:33You ever had nerves before?
02:34No.
02:35For this item, I am the scab mother.
02:37Whenever I have a little craving, I send it in the Discord,
02:41and teams must make it as quickly as possible and send a photo.
02:48How about you?
02:51Oh!
02:51Oh, my gosh.
02:52I actually want to drink this one.
02:55Can we come with?
02:56Sure.
02:57They didn't have Starry, so I got Sprite instead.
02:59That's okay.
03:00I'm seriously...
03:01I meant it when I said I was dehydrated.
03:03There's so many balloons in Mother's Day.
03:05People have moms.
03:07I have a mom.
03:13Do we just...
03:14Do we just pour it?
03:15No, I'm buying this first.
03:17Yeah.
03:18Hello.
03:18Hello.
03:19Hello.
03:20Hello.
03:20Hello.
03:20Our substitute, Sierra Mist.
03:26I appreciate your services.
03:29You got it.
03:32There you go.
03:32Wait, we need pictures.
03:34Yeah, yeah.
03:34Okay, I'm going to do the airhead first.
03:36What do you do?
03:38Oh, my God.
03:38Can we change, ma'am, sir?
03:42Shit, shit, shit, shit.
03:44Retake, retake, retake.
03:45Okay, don't drink that.
03:53I'm going to drink it.
03:54You should drink it.
03:55I'm going to drink it.
03:56Very easy.
04:00That's so good.
04:01I'm not drinking it anymore.
04:12First, first, second, or third.
04:21I don't know if anyone has sent a photo of an actual story yet.
04:24One person.
04:25Okay, so we're second.
04:27Second.
04:27We're close to my house.
04:28Oh, good.
04:29That's better than last.
04:30That is better than last.
04:31I think we have hit this so hard.
04:44We hit the ground running on Thursday, and we have not slowed down.
04:46I mean, as you can probably look behind me, the room is full.
04:49It is almost one in the morning, and the room is full, full, full.
04:52It's usually busy, but not at this point on a Friday night.
04:55This is the big batch, the one that we started later.
04:58And if you look at, like, the edges, like, it's pretty like ice cream, like this little
05:02bit.
05:02The edge, like, it's, the texture is good.
05:04It's actually frozen.
05:05The specific prompt is, like, a native Greenland wood carving up the shoreline.
05:11So this is, like, maybe pure right here.
05:13Just carving that and then trying to paint it to make it look more, like, not a two-by-four.
05:18How's your morning profit?
05:20Pretty good.
05:21We're testing it right now, as soon as I make it not garbage.
05:27This is going to be a first time.
05:29Oh, that's so annoying.
05:30Okay.
05:31Nothing ever works on the first try.
05:33You write what you think will work, and then you try it, and then, like, nine things happen.
05:38This Friday is insane.
05:39This Friday is busier than last year's Saturday.
05:42So there's more people here doing stuff today than there was, like, for any given two days
05:50last year, which is pretty crazy.
05:51Now, I don't know whether that actually translates to finished items or whether that just means
05:57a lot of energy and, you know, partial progress on things and pie-in-the-sky ideas about how to
06:03blow up cars.
06:03So it could be a lot of noise and not a lot of actual productivity, but people seem to be having
06:09a lot of fun.
06:10Right now, we're walking on an annotation of my brother, Minnie, my neighbor, my cousin, Minnie,
06:16that's what, my cousin, Minnie, but in Mario.
06:20She's the next friend of the night out of Bowser's castle.
06:23Yes, I am.
06:24He's kidnapped me many times.
06:26Objection.
06:26The witness shows bias.
06:28That's me.
06:30I'm not a student voice.
06:32I'm so sorry.
06:32So the three big-ticket items I would say this year are the moon, which is worth 50 septillion
06:41points, blowing up a car, which is worth 500 points, and an ethically-sourced totem pole,
06:48which is worth 600 points.
06:50That is really swingy, given that I think last year we won with 1,600 points.
06:56We found a seller, an indigenous Alaskan who hand-carves totem poles.
07:01They said they would sell it to us.
07:03Tomorrow we're going on a quest to try an ethically-sourced totem pole, which is a very
07:07big issue for a few reasons.
07:09Firstly, like, an authentic ethically-sourced totem pole is a few thousand dollars minimum,
07:15and we don't have that kind of funny name.
07:16I mean, the one we have now is, what, second-hand bought from?
07:21Second-hand bought from an Alaskan company.
07:24That seems pretty legit.
07:25They do mass-produce totems.
07:27It's unclear whether or not the workers are actually indigenous Americans.
07:31Yeah, we're well compensated.
07:33So it's tough to know.
07:35I think, yeah.
07:36So we'll try and get any documentation we can.
07:38I don't know.
07:38We're picking it up at this guy's house, like, two hours away.
07:41We're taking the train tomorrow, so.
07:43Should be a fun journey.
07:43We're working on attempting to find a car and a place to blow it up and a way to blow it up.
07:49I will say, I think if we blow up a car, an actual car, and no one else does, and we
07:53get full credit, full points, I mean, that's scav.
07:56Like, that's enough points that you just win scav.
07:59The amount of energy that people have spent talking about the goddamn car is driving me
08:16nuts, right?
08:16I want to just plan to inflate a car, then drive it over firecrackers so we'll blow it
08:21up.
08:21That's not what the judge wants, but it's, like, creative and it's interesting and we
08:24can actually start doing it rather than spending endless hours on the telephone trying to figure
08:29out how to go somewhere and blow up a car.
08:31No one's getting the moon.
08:32That's, that's, that's not happening.
08:34Um, even if we take the other idea, which is, like, moon rock, moon rock is so hard to
08:40come by that, that is, blowing up a car is easier.
08:45I don't think that's actually going to end up swinging anything.
08:49Any frustrations?
08:50Anything that you think is not going well?
08:52I think my sleep schedule, which is a little concerning because I plan to be pulling an
08:57all-nighter tomorrow, Saturday night.
08:59Um, yeah, I, I, I need to go to bed soon.
09:03I have not got enough sleep.
09:11So the art gallery event was tonight.
09:14Going forward, I believe Gabe is organizing, trying to get groups together for the showcase
09:19items and then also trying to put together, like, oh, these are the sort of big point items
09:24that are on the actual list.
09:26Let's get some teams together for that as well.
09:28We also have two pretty big events with Scavolympics and Scavenfeast tomorrow.
09:34So I'm expecting headquarters to be pretty busy.
09:37We've got a lot of digital items that are in the works right now.
09:40So I know a lot of people are working on those separately.
09:42I'm sure the kitchen will be back in action tonight.
09:47Tonight, I want to get started on Scavenfeast because that's tomorrow evening.
09:51I don't have a cutting board, so I'm using a paper plate.
09:55Are there any other, um, food items in the kitchen right now, Savera?
10:01There are many food items.
10:03Shall I take you on a tour?
10:04I wanted a tour, yeah.
10:05All right.
10:06In the freezer here, we have a baguette.
10:10Frozen, um, because we are going to use it for baguette fencing tomorrow.
10:14We also have a copy of the Scavenger Hunt list, which has been tongue-hool-ed.
10:19It's covered in, uh, molten sugar.
10:21This is the beginnings of a Jell-O Frisbee.
10:25This is going to be, uh, meat gummy bears.
10:30It's not in the gummy bear form yet, but it is going to be.
10:32I'm really happy with the energy.
10:35Hopefully tomorrow we get even better turnout, but the energy is incredible.
10:41We're all running off of, like, three hours of sleep and red vines.
10:45Now that I actually know how to cut tape and now that I'm using more than, like, a centimeter-long strip,
10:50this is actually, like, coming together.
10:52Here we go.
10:53It's coming together.
10:53I'm seeing visions, and they're the good kind.
11:11How are Snitchcock's completions looking Friday?
11:16Um, it is not too bad, but at the same time, I think we could be making a lot more progress.
11:22I think it's been a little hard to tell who's officially started things versus who has just, like, brought it up.
11:28But nonetheless, I think we're doing steady.
11:31Lee, are you working on any SCAV stuff?
11:34Or is this homework stuff?
11:35Working on my organic chemistry lab.
11:38Okay, then we won't bother you.
11:40I'm not feeling super great about SCAV this year, to be honest.
11:43I had a very stressful last three weeks because I participated in another big U Chicago tradition, which is Hope LARP, which is a class where you role-play the people election of 1492.
11:55So that consumed my life for the last three weeks, and frankly, I'm not really ready to be like, oh, let's do another life-altering thing for four days.
12:03I'm more thinking about, I have a menstrual tomorrow I haven't studied for.
12:06Um, you know, I have lab tomorrow.
12:08Last year, it was just 100% SCAV.
12:11I didn't think about a single thing that was not SCAV.
12:13This year, I would say SCAV is maybe 10, 20% of my brain.
12:18It's not ideal.
12:20I mean, I just feel like I've lost, like, the motor behind SCAV.
12:23You seem to be feeling guilty.
12:26Yeah.
12:27I know I'm not doing as much as Sarah is in any way, and I feel like I should be helping her out more.
12:39But as of this moment, I'm not overly invested in it, I guess.
12:45I'm probably just too cynical.
12:46Lee is something of a dedicated pessimist, but I also think what into it for Lee looks like is going to involve a lot of claiming not to be into it.
12:58But she's been putting in great work for the team, and I'm happy to be working with her.
13:16How are you feeling right now?
13:25Not great.
13:26Um, the come down from the Pope stuff is just intense.
13:29Although, the Pope stuff has me very excited, actually.
13:31Like, from Chicago, wow.
13:33Did you hear that?
13:34I did, yeah.
13:35Big, big deal.
13:36What's it?
13:36Pope Leo, the 14th?
13:3814th, yes.
13:39I did predict Leo, so I feel very happy about that.
13:42Here is proof.
13:44Yes, and you can see that on May 1st, I predicted Leo.
13:49And I was right.
13:50I just vibrate around Pope stuff.
13:51Like, I would literally think of it all day.
13:57So sometimes they'll announce items as the hunt goes on.
14:00It's like TBA on the list.
14:01And one of them was, uh, apparently Gritty has passed away.
14:04And because he was never baptized, we need to baptize him so we can get into heaven.
14:09Is that the one item that you're focused on right now?
14:11Um, yeah.
14:12I guess also, um, I'll do some research for the Doge one.
14:17I mean, really, I should just skim through the list and see what items I can focus on
14:21more so.
14:22And start coming up with a plan for the big event tomorrow.
14:25Are there other people on the team, like, doing stuff off on their own?
14:28I have no idea.
14:29Yeah.
14:29Do you think that there is a world where you come out of scam this year and you were like,
14:35that was a great scam?
14:37I think so.
14:38Like, today, for example, I would have been like, I'm going to do this for scim, I'm going
14:41to do this.
14:41But instead today, like, because of the people election, I basically spent the last three
14:45hours talking about Pope stuff with my Pope friends.
14:47So it's a lot of, like, ups and downs for me.
14:49Like, sometimes I feel it.
14:51And sometimes I don't.
14:52We'll see.
14:53It's Saturday morning of scab, pretty early in the morning, and I'm feeling pretty energized.
15:11Jen said she was going to sleep in.
15:14There is no sleeping in in scab.
15:17Good morning.
15:17Good morning.
15:18For today, I think I'm going to try and get a better idea of kind of what's going on.
15:23What events are today and making sure I can help manage the team all day.
15:27Honestly, how do teams do it with less than, like, we have four captains and I feel like
15:31we need more.
15:31People don't have this many people.
15:33Yeah.
15:34You have 53 people, I think, on the first night.
15:37Yeah, we have 190 people under this part.
15:39Oh, my God.
15:41That's why.
15:42I was talking to Paul Moore and Paul Moore was like, yes, this is equally her, this is
15:46her job and I'm glad I'm not you because there's so many more people.
15:51Yeah.
15:51I was like, I'm glad that I'm not going insane and this is just a hard job.
15:56Hello.
15:57Hello.
15:58We get more and more organized and each day goes on because each day gets more and more
16:03chaotic.
16:05Yeah, each day we start out trying to be organized and then it just all goes to hell very quickly.
16:10Yeah.
16:10One of the projects for this morning is to clean up the space because we have HQ visits.
16:15The judges are coming around to visit our HQ at some point in the evening.
16:19Well, we haven't even begun the making the, like, the theme for the HQ visit.
16:25I don't even know what the theme is at this point.
16:28I am scared to say this.
16:32However, I'm feeling pretty confident.
16:35I feel like as someone who's on the team last year, I think that we are doing probably better
16:41than we did last year.
16:42And concerning the fact that we won last year, I think we're in a pretty good spot.
16:45I also think that going to some events, some of the other teams that we expected to be
16:52threats to us coming into the season have not had as strong of showings as I expected.
16:57However, I also think there are several very big ticket items that could make or break a
17:03scav team.
17:04And if we don't get those items done, that leaves a door open for other teams.
17:08We have a possibility of land in Indiana, which we need to get to and get a car to.
17:20And then we have a possibility of a car in Michigan, which we need to get to and get a car from.
17:27We are planning to get Tannerite probably somewhere going from Michigan to Indiana if it's not too
17:36late for Lowe's to be open.
17:37The land is actually not locked in.
17:39The land is empty.
17:41The land is the biggest issue right now by far.
17:43I mean, and where to put the car after it's closed.
17:46So at the start of looking at the list, on list release, we saw, okay, blow up a car.
17:51And we knew this was the long shot item.
17:53What I was thinking is, okay, how can we do it near UChicago as much as possible to get
17:59it done quickly?
18:00We were seeing, okay, can we use fireworks to blow it up at a junkyard?
18:04I was not particularly thinking about safety, which is why Legal stepped in and told Max
18:09P no to one of their plans.
18:11And through them told us that it's a no-go.
18:14I took that night off.
18:15I gave up on kind of the idea of getting the car item done.
18:20Just it wasn't happening.
18:21Gideon came in and was like, let's get this done.
18:24Little did I know that he was going to start reaching out to people, sending some Hail Marys.
18:29They were going out.
18:30I mean, I think, like, for scab, like, we, if this gets done, I think we win.
18:37If it doesn't, we're kind of cooked.
18:39That's true.
18:39I think his man respond.
18:41Okay.
18:41And I think, honestly, I think, like, we'll know whether our, how cooked our scab is in
18:47the next, like, 40 minutes, because we need to, like, be moving by four if, like, if this
18:52is going to happen, because we don't have an incredible amount of time.
18:57Um, call the guy?
18:58I only have, like, access to him through Instagram.
19:02Got it.
19:02So we, we wait and see?
19:05Wait and see?
19:06We need Brandon Dillon to pull through.
19:08Yes.
19:08Uh, where's our, where's our, where's our scab poke?
19:13We need, we need scab poke blessing.
19:15Scab poke.
19:17Scab poke.
19:18Can we get your blessing to the car?
19:19Yes.
19:20I am blessing this mission to blow up a car.
19:23In nomine patria, e fili, e spiritus sanctus.
19:27Amen.
19:34Okay.
19:35Tell us what's going on.
19:35So, I went to my professor Ada Palmer's office, and I got some stuff, um, and she's a professor
19:42of medieval and renaissance Italian history, so this is that kind of thing, and she also
19:47teaches the pope class that I was in, so I have an in with her, as the kids say.
19:52That's, like, the doja's crown of Genoa.
19:54I got King Henry VII's, uh, costume, and he's from Wales, so I'm going to use that for
19:59the Welsh idea.
20:00There's something else I was going to pick up, but I've totally forgotten about it.
20:02Oh, yeah, more baptism materials, so we can DX and communicate and baptize Gritty.
20:07That'll be really exciting.
20:08I got the dagger there.
20:09Maybe she'll have some other stuff that just seems useful.
20:11She probably will.
20:12Um, yeah.
20:14Item 303, complete a giant grid of baseball players with your dad.
20:28Item 200, at 1 p.m. on Saturday, send a woman to 1528 East 55th Street.
20:34Item 268, a new scabby is joining your team.
20:37Your long-lost nephew, Clifford.
20:40Apparently his name is Bear.
20:42You going to yawn, bud?
20:43You going to yawn?
20:46You going to yawn?
20:48No yawn?
20:50No yawn?
20:51There is a daily game called Immaculate Grid, in which there is, like, a 3x3 grid of players,
20:57and what this does here is it uses all 30 teams, and you have to find intersections
21:01between every team in Major League Baseball.
21:04So it's a collective total of, I believe, 435 squares that these scabbies are filling out,
21:09and in order to be here, they had to also bring their dads.
21:11Hi, I'm Mark Tomalko.
21:12Um, I guess I'm an honorary member of this scab team.
21:15I am a dad.
21:16Are we supposed to talk about favorite players?
21:18What this actually is, is I have gathered this group of women
21:21to go find something at Trader Joe's that I've never seen before.
21:25It's based on a Chris Lemming sketch where he says that women can find things that nobody else can at Trader Joe's.
21:30I present to you one single.
21:33Cherry lime beer.
21:35Wow, I really have not seen that before.
21:37Would you like to see more of them?
21:40I think I'm good.
21:41Designate your team, Clifford, who must report to Hutch immediately after craft services to learn more.
21:46My name is Clifford.
21:47I'm Clifford.
21:48I'm Clifford.
21:49My name is Clifford.
21:50Hi, I'm Clifford.
21:51Hi, I'm Clifford from Snitchcock, and my favorite item is Clifford.
21:56Throughout the hunt, the Cliffords are given specific tasks that they have to do to sabotage their teams,
22:01just like Clifford does in the movie Clifford to his Uncle Martin.
22:05But this particular event is just to watch the movie Clifford, because it's fun,
22:08and to celebrate the effort that the Cliffords are putting into the item throughout the hunt.
22:14I know you're a discolk.
22:16Do you know anyone who was on both the Mets and the Orioles?
22:19So when you saw the legs?
22:20Oh, that is really marvelous, and I have not seen that before.
22:23I've never seen it before either.
22:24So two days ago, I announced to everyone that Gritty was hit by a car.
22:42He has died.
22:43This is very sad.
22:44It is time to elect a new mascot for the Philadelphia Flyers.
22:48Everyone here has come up with a new mascot along with a new liturgical direction for the Philadelphia Flyers.
22:56They will all have around 90 seconds or so to introduce their mascot PowerPoint style.
23:02After that, there will be five minutes for mingling, and then we will do voting.
23:06So, I believe that so far, everybody has been talking about taking the Flyers in the wrong direction.
23:12What we need is a less inclusive church.
23:15We need to be as aggressive as possible in persecuting all those who do not agree with us.
23:20To this end.
23:22See, you guys are going to be first on the chopping block.
23:27And that is the direction we need.
23:29I haven't decided on a name yet.
23:30We can do that collectively in the spirit of openness, of disopenedness.
23:34Yeah, I think that's our saying.
23:36Yeah.
23:37Tyranny.
23:39Yes!
23:40Yes!
23:40Yes!
23:42Tyranny!
23:42Yes!
23:44Tyranny!
23:44Open tyranny.
23:45Together, we will be tyrannical.
23:48Democratic tyranny!
23:49We're not even a pope, we can't do that!
23:51I too fear we have lost our way.
23:53As a gardener, we must look to see what Gritty did right.
23:57Fear.
23:57And what he did right is he struck fear into the children of Philadelphia.
24:02Yes!
24:03He struck fear into the children of Pittsburgh.
24:07I present to you bludgeoning.
24:09He is terrifying.
24:11He is a figure of power with a cape.
24:13Gritty would not want softness.
24:15Gritty would want a figure of strength.
24:17Gritty would want something more.
24:22Bludgy is that something.
24:25Herald of wrath.
24:28Support his claim.
24:30Grummen.
24:32Grummen.
24:32Grummen.
24:33I just have a really strong attachment to the way he's taking the church.
24:47I just don't think any other candidate will be able to follow.
24:50If it's an eight, we have seven votes.
24:52I'm not paying myself, right?
24:54Three times six is 18.
24:55I have seven for me.
24:56Why not?
24:56Why not?
24:56Why not?
24:58It's time to vote.
24:59It has to vote, too.
25:00Have a miss.
25:01We had two votes for The Nameless Beast.
25:22Three votes for Blizzy.
25:25And seven votes for Bludgy.
25:28Most importantly, Bludgy will be a backup goalie.
25:37He will be huge.
25:40And that is Bludgy's will.
25:41Additionally, two points from the 25-point involvement will be given to the same six houses
25:47who supported my claim.
25:50And we will cage the beast.
25:51No!
25:51Do you feel like this was an important item?
26:13It was important for me.
26:16I enjoyed it a lot.
26:18Yes, this was a very fun item for me specifically.
26:21It was semi-accurate to, I would say, maybe like an early conclave.
26:25I'm definitely in better spirits.
26:27It was fun being in handball out of the room by the functionaries, aka judges, who refused
26:31to accept my bribes, which I was offended by, even though my bribe was not eating them.
26:36So I guess more of a threat than a bribe.
26:38Three, two, one, wrong claim.
26:39Wrong claim!
26:41Ecstatic.
26:42Could not have gone better.
26:43I truly expected the worst.
26:45Everyone was like, I'm from Philly.
26:46I care lots about Gritty.
26:48Which I conveniently didn't mention that I am from Boston.
26:51Flyers hit the penguins.
26:52It's a thing.
26:56How did it go?
26:57It was amazing.
26:58What?
26:59I just crushed.
27:00It was crazy.
27:01The wrong claim?
27:02Yeah.
27:02We have the papacy and 23 points.
27:04All of our supporters have 12 points, which I thought for sure if you're going to win
27:08this thing, you're going to be value points from the right to your supporters.
27:10No.
27:11And then all the people who didn't support us, who rejected my claim, had only five points,
27:16which includes Snitch Dog.
27:17Relevant.
27:19What was the question?
27:19That is a great question.
27:20So we crushed.
27:21That is a great question.
27:22The wrong claim was thoroughly good.
27:25So the totem pole item on the scav list required ethically sourcing a totem pole for 600 points.
27:37Most items are around 5 to 10 points.
27:40So 600 is worth a lot.
27:42It's a very important item.
27:44Item 218.
27:45Ethically sourced totem pole.
27:46600 points.
27:47So I am looking for the most ethically sourced totem pole.
27:52And the perfect completion of this item is a 25-foot-tall totem pole delivered to judgment.
27:56So I spent hours and hours searching various second-hand marketplaces on the internet.
28:01Craigslist, eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and even reaching out to American Indian associations
28:06in Chicago.
28:08From all of the research, I narrowed down a few sellers.
28:11I messaged them, contacted them, asked them about the provenance of their items.
28:15So we found a totem that was designed as a decorative item.
28:19It was designed as a souvenir, essentially, which is signed and has provenance.
28:24We can link it to a company and a manufacturer so we know where it's from.
28:28And we believe that's the best ethical solution to the problem.
28:31We left at 11.30.
28:33We took a bus to somewhere in Englewood.
28:36Oh, okay.
28:37All right.
28:37So we've made it to the metro stop here at Halstead.
28:40We've got about seven minutes to catch our train.
28:44It should be pretty doable.
28:48And then we're on for another hour.
28:51And then we got to somehow find this guy's house.
28:53And then we got on the metro, took that about an hour south, napped a bit on the way there,
28:59Ubered to this guy's house.
29:01It was contactless.
29:02He left it on the front door.
29:03All right, please, tell them what we got here.
29:05All right.
29:05Here we are in Downers Grove, Illinois, with the totem pole.
29:08And we just picked up from the seller's house and went ready to take the metro back to Chicago.
29:14Amazing.
29:15Wait, can we see the signature and everything?
29:17Oh, sure.
29:17He has a signature.
29:19In total, 30 bucks spent, five hours, but worth it for 600 points or some fraction of 600 points.
29:26I think the judges kind of think they're looking for a large-scale totem pole.
29:30And we've heard that they're pretty inclined to giving partial credit.
29:34Like, the item that's the moon is worth a lot of points, and they said partial moon is partial points.
29:39And so we kind of hope the same thing here.
29:40We don't necessarily anticipate full points.
29:43I'm hoping for 300.
29:44Yeah, I think, yeah.
29:45Anywhere from 100 to 300 feels reasonable for this.
29:47Definitely.
29:48Max P's commitment to making the totem pole acquisition ethical was very impressive.
29:53The size of the totem pole was a massive ding in points for them.
29:57How massive of a ding?
29:59About, it was about a 550-point ding.
30:04Unrelated, have you heard any progress about blowing up a car?
30:08We are trying to figure that out.
30:10I have, I have been urging people to work on that.
30:13As, as we were on a trade most of the day, we couldn't really.
30:16Yeah, we feel that, I don't know, it's important to tackle a lot of the big point items.
30:21So it'd be nice, even if we can't get an actual car and actually blow it up, to do something.
30:26Because it is, what, 500 points?
30:27500 points.
30:28So it's worth making an attempt for partial credit.
30:30I mean, even a tenth of that is 50 points, which is, you know, several items combined.
30:36I'm pretty confident South is doing it.
30:38Blowing up a car?
30:39Blowing up a car.
30:40Yeah.
30:45Do we have anything to update?
30:46He says...
30:47He says something?
30:48Yeah, yeah.
30:48Okay, so we found this guy.
30:50Basically, I searched the keywords, uh, Tannerite, Explosion, and, like, car on Instagram.
30:58And that's how we found this van.
31:00Uh, he, like, filmed basically, like, a reel doing exactly this on some other guy's property.
31:07He seems, like, willing.
31:09Like, he, he asked how much money we were willing to pay, which I think is a good sign.
31:12What did the response say?
31:14Uh, I said $300.
31:16Oh, so he hasn't responded since then.
31:17Okay.
31:18Okay.
31:18Okay.
31:19Hey, uh, we were messaging on Instagram about the, uh, the car.
31:33I have a bunch of people, like, anxiously gathered around me awaiting news.
31:37So it's, for, uh, UChicago is something called scab, which is, it's, like, the world's largest scavenger hunt.
31:44So the items are, like, you know, bring the dean of the college bound and gagged and, and a lot of weird shit.
31:50And one of the, uh, one of the items this year is to explode a car, and it's worth 500 points, which is, uh, an obscene amount of points.
31:59It's, like, enough for our team to win, clear the game, win the game.
32:02So we need, basically, private property in, uh, Indiana.
32:06Um, so we have, I think, a car or a car chassis that we can, we can tow down there.
32:13Um, we have a rifle, I think, we've been, an SKS.
32:18I don't know if that's, like, high enough caliber to set off the, okay.
32:22Okay.
32:23Um, okay.
32:25Perfect.
32:25Yeah.
32:27I wish you guys had plenty of stuff.
32:31Oh, it's, it's gonna be, uh, today, I think.
32:33Of course, of course, yeah, feel free to record.
32:44After the, done, done.
32:46Yeah, yeah, yeah.
32:46We can't even get there until, uh, pretty late, I think.
32:50Do you think you could help us?
32:52So we don't have that much experience with, uh, firearms or, or munitions.
32:57Do you think you could help us purchase the, the Tantalite and, and get everything set up?
33:01Uh, Tantalite, uh, yeah.
33:08Holy shit.
33:11Oh, yeah, amazing.
33:13Thank you, Brandon, that you've actually saved us.
33:15Yeah, all right, perfect.
33:16Send me the address.
33:17We'll, uh, we'll get everything together.
33:19Everything's in motion.
33:24Holy shit.
33:25Holy shit.
33:27Oh, my God.
33:58Holy shit.
34:02All right.
34:08All right.
34:09Vot.
34:10All right.
34:11All right.

34:13All right.
