"If I'm me I'm _just_ gonna be an asshole." "That's very observant." I like Beau's double-take after that, like she takes a moment to realise what Fjord was implying
The expression on Matt's face when the guard gets blown off and thinks he still has a chance was so real, it hurt 😭😝😂😂 I'm really happy he got the girl, in real life 😂😂🥰🤩
I like his "Noooooo..." during Fjord's distraction of Avantika and then one of them, I think either Sam or Liam (essentially the same person in my book), says "make a constitution check" or something of that variety, and Matt just sits there and morrowfully moans, "Noooooo."
Either that or he's just a really good actor in portraying an insecure guy who is being flirted with for possibly the first time. Or maybe he's genuinely taken aback, having never seen this side of Marisha.
There is also the distinct possibility that she knows exactly what buttons to push to get that reaction. In truth, it's likely an amalgamation of all these factors.
If you, in a medieval setting, see a well-muscled person carrying a stick that they clearly don't use for walking, you can surmise pretty quickly that it's a weapon. Also, pun not intended, but that makes it even better
GOD i love marisha ray. this is so much better than i expected it to be. That laugh after “where are you staying?” and “i get off my shift in 40 minutes” was golden
I seriously expected Beau to mention something about her girlfriend that she's staying with and see the heart of the guard shatter to a thousand pieces.
The best part of this is that she told him the real name of the hotel that they're staying at. This poor guy is gonna re-appear out of nowhere when they least expect it! XD
He'll show up outside calling her "name" and she'll groan to everyone before she sticks her head outside the window to greet him in her Traci persona. 100% he'll be standing outside with a mystical "Box of Boom" raised above his head playing Wham and say in his very distinctive accent "Traci I Love You"
@@ShayneRawls I get the feeling it's that awful tactic of not liking something but wanting to make it sound more serious than it is. Like in this case they just hate Beauregard but rather than admit that they for some reason want to attack Marisha's roleplaying ability. Honestly if they hate Beau so much I think that's evidence that Marisha is REALLY good at her job.
@Jesse Mathis her best characters are those that are well outside of her characteristics. Beau and Keyleth are introspective characters on her part and are only fun in rare moments and are more deeper and personal as a norm (not a great fit for many players to watch because they may not appreciate melodrama). However, her dettached characters (Edna, Snizzler and Rhinestone) are utterly bonkers.
i'm hoping the guard shows up at some point later on and recognizes "Traci" - this could quickly become some running joke with the guard turning out to be connected to Someone Important later on.
Guys, I have this new ship, call me crazy, but I think Matt X Marisha is a thing. No evidence, obviously. Nothing in reality, but I think it could work in some insane head-canon setting.
you know it occurred to me when i saw this the first time. If this was a regular TV program or anime, there would be one ep (maybe when Marisha is away?) when Beau gets hit by mind flayer's attack or something and she spends the rest of the time AS Traci. With the rest of the Mighty Nein trying to keep her from: flirting with the monsters/pirates/criminals/city guards, spending all of Beau's coinage (at the beauty salon, clothing boutique, jeweler, etc), and so on. And Jester would probably be encouraging her every step of the way.
The entire scene is gold, but my favorite part is actually the banter at the start between Fjord and Beau. It's awesome to see Travis and Marisha's chemistry when playing off one another.
This was amazing. For whatever reason it reminds me of the arc in Legend of Korra where the avatar state starts haunting korra and stalking her through the streets. i can picture Tracey haunting Beau like "Hey gurl! let's go do shots!"
What I like most about this is that Matt did find a way to turn it on her by having the guard start trying to ask her out. Beau had to do a little verbal shimmying to both get the guard to give her the information and then get him to go away.
Ok so I love this entire exchange but thinking ahead she told a guard she was looking for an entrance to sluice weave where a bunch of highly punishable shit went down immediately afterwards and told him where they were staying.
It’s Marisha pretending to be Beau pretending to be Tracy pretending to flirt while talking to Matt pretending to be a guard. These two are married. I love D&D
Here's my thought: when Beau is called away for extended period of training with the Cobalt Soul, Marisha can play a character from Beau's past who Tracy was definitely based on. As to what that character's class, or classes, might be? I'd say Bard, College of Glamour, with just a hint of Rogue. If leveled up enough in Rogue, go the Inquisitive. A fun, flirty, seemingly vainglorious young woman who graduated with honors and is traveling the world to find herself, kinda bitchy and shallow, but room to grow. Wait. Pretty sure that's how Tary's arc went too. Huh!
That moment when Liam just takes off his glasses and drops them to the table. He knows it's time for a flurry of complete bullshit, and he's just going to sit back and enjoy it.
Why does it feel like Traci is who Beau would be without the justified daddy issues? She sounds a lot like what I would expect a slightly-spoiled wine heiress on vacation would sound like.
Liam thumbing through the PHB makes me think of Caleb pretending to thumb through his book out of sight but just within earshot to act as backup just in case things go sideways
Oh TRACI! HI- *beau back round house kicks a guy in the face then catches and throws 3 arrows killing three men* ...Traci? *beau's hair is out of the bun and she just drops the ....b- stick* "Heyyyy~... you...?" *poor soul is just confused and aroused*
This scene is such a hilarious subversion of expectations. It's so typical that between Keyleth and Beau to try being charismatic and fall on their faces, but then lesbian Beauregard totally seduces this poor guard lmao
I can't. I laughed like almost through the entire scene and only stopped once to take a breath. In the short pause I heard the oblivion "awkward npc dialogue" theme in the background and I was just dying. Great stuff, holy shit.
Hearing on talks that Tracy was essentially Beau channeling all the women she hated most growing up makes so much character sense.
"You know this person, don't you?"
You were on the right track there Travis
Insecurity is a terrible thing, yo
"who the F&$% is Tracy" this is the best way it could of ended even beau doesn't know where this came from
It really makes the "something deep down inside of me that I actually really hate" part make sense
On what?
I must have been amazing for Matt to finally get a chance to flirt with his wife instead of like, Travis. lol
Yeah Oskar needs to get with the program. lol
Watch talks Machina from last Tuesday he talks about it
Is it possible to watch Talks for free?
@@GeeGe. RUclips critical role channel
Nope, no Talks Machina there. I wish.
"If I'm me I'm _just_ gonna be an asshole."
"That's very observant."
I like Beau's double-take after that, like she takes a moment to realise what Fjord was implying
I mean, she DOES know she's an asshole. She admitted as much to Dairon.
Like at least sixty percent of this is Marisha flirting with Matt and getting him flustered and I love every part of it.
resdamalos ikr
huh
So, I guess we know who really rolled the Insecurity Check...
The expression on Matt's face when the guard gets blown off and thinks he still has a chance was so real, it hurt 😭😝😂😂 I'm really happy he got the girl, in real life 😂😂🥰🤩
Ashley's "Oh... Buddy..." is all of us
Agreed. 8:37 for the timestamp for others.
She's all of us and the last of us.
@@tomaszskowronski1406 Too soon! & yet, I wonder if we'll get a Part 2?
Lol.
What I love most is Matt seems more flustered by being flirted with by his real-life wife than any other PC ever.
I like his "Noooooo..." during Fjord's distraction of Avantika and then one of them, I think either Sam or Liam (essentially the same person in my book), says "make a constitution check" or something of that variety, and Matt just sits there and morrowfully moans, "Noooooo."
Either that or he's just a really good actor in portraying an insecure guy who is being flirted with for possibly the first time. Or maybe he's genuinely taken aback, having never seen this side of Marisha.
Veloziraptor111 I reckon he’s channelling how he felt when they started dating, just taken aback and shy
There is also the distinct possibility that she knows exactly what buttons to push to get that reaction. In truth, it's likely an amalgamation of all these factors.
@@jamiedodger2361 he confirmed your statement in an interview, shy awkward DND player that he started out as came through in that moment 🥰🥰
This is even funnier if you remember that Beau has the shaved undercut hair and muscles. Probably an 8 pack abs showing. Lol.
And is also clearly well-armed
@@alexv3357 Is this a pun? If so I applaud you. If not she actually only has a stick
If you, in a medieval setting, see a well-muscled person carrying a stick that they clearly don't use for walking, you can surmise pretty quickly that it's a weapon.
Also, pun not intended, but that makes it even better
@@yooooo8600 hey staffs are no joke. You can't even spar properly with them they're so dangerous.
Tomboy. Means he was a man of culture lol
GOD i love marisha ray. this is so much better than i expected it to be.
That laugh after “where are you staying?” and “i get off my shift in 40 minutes” was golden
I am REALLY hoping she gets more named roles going forward in non-CR things.
If only Molly could’ve seen that...
I like to think that he was in ghost form...just going "oh....my god...YES! YES MY ANGRY DISASTER LESBIAN CHILD!!"
I like to believe that the sheer force of Beau's resentful self disgust pierced through the veil of death and alerted Molly in the afterlife
Silver Ackerman add a basket of fruit that he would be munching on as he watches everything go down and it would be perfect.
he would be so proud
God, I miss Molly
Oh god why did Fjord teach Beau how to smile and seem sincere? She has too much power!
I was going to like this, but it has 69 likes, which is too perfect for Beau
@@kyliesparks1435
Implying Beau isn't in deep cover 24/7
Secret Agent Double Beau-7
I seriously expected Beau to mention something about her girlfriend that she's staying with and see the heart of the guard shatter to a thousand pieces.
I was 100% waiting for the girlfriend card lmao
Damn that would have been so fucking good!
Tbh, that would have been a lot kinder than just standing him up like that and letting him stew on whatever he did wrong 😅
@@Snowie7826 this is true...
I'd like to imagine their real flirting also involves Matt explaining Exandria lore minutia
Discussing the minutia of my world's DnD lore is also how I flirt.
I'm so lonely....
Laura hears 'loose entrance', starts giggling.
Laura has at least a full 3 hours of "phrasing" if someone wants to make a compilation.
I should make a playlist.
I love her, I love her, I love her she's awesome.
When is this?
6:35 'Sounds like it's got a lot of suctionnn'
The best part of this is that she told him the real name of the hotel that they're staying at. This poor guy is gonna re-appear out of nowhere when they least expect it! XD
I know. And it's gonna be beautiful.

No one gets to say Marisha is a bad role player anymore
That's a thing? I just had issue with her characters. She can totally roleplay
She's never been bad, people are just mean
@@ShayneRawls yeah, if you linger around the comments you'll find there's some very unpleasant comments made about her. It's not cool.

*game getting tough*
Marisha: time to do what I do best
Flirt with my nerd to get what we need
Matt: CRITICAL SUCCESS
Liam throwing his glasses down like "well, this is it folks"
2:29 Yeah, he's like "Yup, I fold."
I like that the moment the glasses drop coincides with “moist” 😂😂
I love the way all the guys cringe. You know they've all been that guy at some time or so close that it is uncomfortably familiar.
I love how Laura joins their cringe haha It’s like she’s either been friends with this type of person _or has been them at some point_
The guard gradually being charmed by Tracy is E V E R Y T H I N G
when the DM is married to the player flirting with them....
Well, you earned this from the video title:
"Tracy sends her regards."
(stabs metaphorical knife through guard's heart).
i'm hoping the guard shows up at some point later on and recognizes "Traci" - this could quickly become some running joke with the guard turning out to be connected to Someone Important later on.
@David Sianghio Because my master told us to. King Beau sends her regards.☺
Travis was as red as a tomato for the entire bit I loved it
7:33 even in Tracy Mode she's still a monk; giving one-strike deathblows to whomever she meets.
Don't forget the Stunning Strike at 4:58

I love the fact that Travis and Laura made the exact same face
In more ways than one... *jiggles eyebrow*
Flurry of Blows at the end...pop. pop.
7:17 forced giggling close up is so hilarious
imagine if that guard developed a relationship with tracy for several episodes and it was all an illusion
sounds like a Mrs. Doubtfire situation with the bus driver
THIS CAKE NEEDS MORE LAYERS!
Aw, that would be too cruel!
Guys, I have this new ship, call me crazy, but I think Matt X Marisha is a thing. No evidence, obviously. Nothing in reality, but I think it could work in some insane head-canon setting.
Garrett... Matt and Marisha are married.
McBain: That's the joke.
@@garrettcarter2959 Ok. Didn't know you were being sarcastic.
No idea what you are talking about, don’t see it. Now, Sam x Liam? Totally canon. Laura x Dicebag? Irrevocably a fact. Matt x Marisha? I don’t see it.

Good to see those charisma lessons from fjord finally paid off
Ain't no chance in hell Fjord could teach that form of charisma
I think it’s Traci, with an I. Because she sound like that kind of Traci.
Fjord sounds like the kind of Ford to have a silent J in his name
With a heart over the "i".
@@EHLarson Obviously.
Like on her birth certificate is Tracey but she wanted to be unique and different so she’s “traci”
You're right and I hate it.
It is now canon that beau is a method actor
I really want Liam to chime in with Caleb's accent "Please do not make us part of your love play Matthew."
Matt had to play Gilmore for all the hours Vax'ildan spent flirting with him. I'd say it's fair turnabout.
I didn’t know Matt and Marisha were married until I saw the comments on this video and it made this whole encounter a THOUSAND TIMES BETTER
@dark zeratul Laura and Travis are married.
Later that night Matt is like, "Hey, Marisha, you know that thing you did at the game? Do that."
The eternal struggle: I want to like this post, but with the amount of likes it already has, it wouldn't fit. Have an approving comment instead 👍
Tease him for 15 minutes and be like "actually I need to go"

they did a thing with a mind flayer lowering Grog's wisdom to 0 once
3:48 I love Matt rolling an insight check for the guard. "Let's give this poor sucker a chance..."
Well he obviously rolled a 1
I soo want the guard to return as like an escort character and Beau has to act as Traci for like the whole trip whilst the others just get creeped out
this cake needs more layers, girl :D
erbgorre I read this as soon as he said it lol
The entire scene is gold, but my favorite part is actually the banter at the start between Fjord and Beau. It's awesome to see Travis and Marisha's chemistry when playing off one another.
That was some Dr. Jekyll / Miss Hyde moment.
When she goes 'You gave me a little smirk, they're totally haunted!' Matt was as red as his vest

Honestly, Marishas transitions between Beaus and "Tracis" mannerisms and talk is impressive as fuck.
As an IRL disaster lesbian, I have my own version of a Traci, and this bit was equal parts hilarious and painfully relatable
i can relate
traci is diabolical
We ALL know a Traci...
Truth. Way too many over way too many years...
There were so many Tracis at my old high school…
I think maybe Molly posessed Beau lmao
Please let that be canon, it would be a thing Molly would do.
Well this was prophetic...
Editing. On. POINT!
Or since this is tracy I feel like I should say "on fleek" instead
All up in dis bich
gon get cronk
editing on fleek
da fuc
Ok so I love this entire exchange but thinking ahead she told a guard she was looking for an entrance to sluice weave where a bunch of highly punishable shit went down immediately afterwards and told him where they were staying.
Yeah. I _cannot wait_ until this bites M9 in the ass!
You know Matt's not just going to let that tidbit go. That's why he had the guard ask.
Inb4 they kill a bunch of people and steal a ship XD
I love how Fjord just commenting ''You know this person dont you'' 1:02 :D
It’s Marisha pretending to be Beau pretending to be Tracy pretending to flirt while talking to Matt pretending to be a guard. These two are married. I love D&D
Flirting with your spouse through multiple layers of roleplay is the nerdiest thing ever. I love it.
This scene always reminds me of captain Holt pretending to be straight in that one episode of Brooklyn nine nine
Laura's face at 7:33: °O° XD
Man, they're killing me.
Legendary editing skills
Whoever edited this clip is a hero.
Is it just me or is Marisha’s highlight like POPPIN
Honestly say what y'all want about Marisha's roleplaying but you have got to admit her fashion and makeup are fly af
Here's my thought: when Beau is called away for extended period of training with the Cobalt Soul, Marisha can play a character from Beau's past who Tracy was definitely based on. As to what that character's class, or classes, might be? I'd say Bard, College of Glamour, with just a hint of Rogue. If leveled up enough in Rogue, go the Inquisitive.
A fun, flirty, seemingly vainglorious young woman who graduated with honors and is traveling the world to find herself, kinda bitchy and shallow, but room to grow. Wait. Pretty sure that's how Tary's arc went too. Huh!
Annnnd give me just a moment to copy this down…
Whenever Yasha was mind-controlled and forced to fight Beau she just saw Tracy.
1:01 Fjord's 'I've created a monster' face had me rolling.
I want so bad for them to be walking through Nicodranus when Beau just hears a voice go "Tracy?"
#WhoTheFuckIsTracy
BoojumFed i dunno who Tracy is, but this Traci bitch is way too flirty for our liking.
tracy, the last millimeter shred of beau's heterosexuality

Watching this live was fucking AMAZING.
Yoko318 the comments were all just people screaming.
7:16 THE ZOOM THO XD
Could have suddenly benignly dropped the "Oh my boyfriend will blahbahblah" bomb as a way to instantly shut the conversation down xD
traci is the new Burt Reynolds esq.
Marisha is always gorgeous, but her hair falling like that at 2:35 is just too perfect
I can’t wait for the artwork!
(I found some of this moment, it was worth the wait.)
Also, I love everyone was genuinely sympathetic toward the guy after the "you probably couldn't afford it" line.
I love that both Travis and Matt blush when they flirt with their own wives, it's adorable.
I love how the longer it went on, the higher pitched it got.
i find it extra funny since theyre married llol
Why does it feel like Traci is who Beau would be without the justified daddy issues? She sounds a lot like what I would expect a slightly-spoiled wine heiress on vacation would sound like.
7:17 I've come back to this video multiple times for that insane laugh to buy time while she tries to think of an exit
2:26 Travis/Fjord stifling laugh LOL
Liam thumbing through the PHB makes me think of Caleb pretending to thumb through his book out of sight but just within earshot to act as backup just in case things go sideways
liam just throwing his glasses on the table in resignation is everything xD
Oh poor guy... He is up for a rude awakening should he show up later.
Oh TRACI! HI- *beau back round house kicks a guy in the face then catches and throws 3 arrows killing three men*
...Traci?
*beau's hair is out of the bun and she just drops the ....b- stick*

Beau is Traci... Traci is Beau...
(My thoughts when Beau speculated on where that all just came from.)
i absolutely LOST it at Liam taking off his glasses and dropping them, those fucking dorks
Your editing makes this so much better
Critical Role is everything amazing about playing D&D with your best friends...not least of all demonstrated by clips like this, oh my god.
7:24 *Internal Screaming Intensifies*
I'll be Traci...
I'm already Traci

This scene is such a hilarious subversion of expectations. It's so typical that between Keyleth and Beau to try being charismatic and fall on their faces, but then lesbian Beauregard totally seduces this poor guard lmao
Another one of them fun goofy moments that makes me love Critical Role. Thanks Marisha! Throwing back to Campaign 1, Episode 2 @(52:42)
I love how Marisha just turned into Alexis Rose for that scene
marisha’s highlighter was ON POINT in this episode 10/10
The quiet "who the fuck is traci?" Killed me XD
What gift has just been bestowed upon us all...
I can't. I laughed like almost through the entire scene and only stopped once to take a breath. In the short pause I heard the oblivion "awkward npc dialogue" theme in the background and I was just dying.
Great stuff, holy shit.
I so badly want them to go back to Nicodranas and all of a sudden one of the guards starts yelling Tracy and starts running towards them.
the juxtaposition of this voice and mannerisms with how shredded Beau looks
7:34-7:39 someone should mace a gif out of this!
love the editing style.
"Where, did _that,_ come from?"
That was Travis asking Marisha, not Fjord asking Beau.
Best Marisha Crit Roll moment right there. lol
Yasha: I...am.... *in love*
Poor guard gonna get ghosted xD
