Well here’s the thing Snatcher may be a demon ghost But the emperess is a criminal leader that stole stuff from hat kid, and had little reason to. And the snatcher has some sort of ok in him
@@jacketofdiamonds We . The viewers always think the next one of these is gonna be like "death wish" but instead it's rush hour something we didn't expect so just expect the most random ones
Given how Hat Kid was forced to work for both of them while getting her timepieces back from their respective homes,it makes sense that Empress would say something that Snatcher would as well. Also,now I wanna know what Alex was thinking when he wrote the lyrics for these songs XD I'm actually really curious about these~
I like how the first 2 times Empress sings "Lazy paws, do your job." she sounds calm and collective but the third time she sounds outright angry because the cats still haven't caught Hat Kid
Hearing Hat Kid's lyrics, I get the sense of both fear due to the fact that an entire town is coming for her head. But I also get a sense of confidence, as if she's looking at this situation with the feeling of "Just another Tuesday."
*being chased / attacked by thousands of cats who want to capture her for the bounty, and also being chased by cat leader with a diamond rocket launcher* Hat Kid: Just another day at the office.
I mean, when you defeat a mafia, a demonic lawyer ghost, star in some movies and then fight your former boss, defeat a time-traveling vigilante, save an entire city from a plague, and sink a cruise ship, it will be just another tuesday.
Have you ever noticed how the Nyakuza metro is basically a culmination of all the other worlds? (Aside from Time’s End) the cats are the Japanese version of the mafia, the theme of the modern, neon train station/subway is like a hybrid of the two BotB sides, you get hired to find the time pieces like in Subcon Forest, it’s a free-roam world like Alpine Skyline, and it’s a dlc world like the Seal the Deal world. (Edit: it also has the carrying things mechanic from Seal the Deal in the part when you’re picking up all the time pieces)
When you think about it Hat Kid is not the generic hero. Instead of being absolutely pure she still does things like steal, be slightly selfish, and push the mafia off of buildings.
The Empress always scared me more than Snatcher. She can kill you in one hit, she has an entire mafia of cats working under her. In the final battle she has a _rocket launcher._ She just has this cold and calculated air to her that all breaks down during this final battle. Now she’s a pissed and ferocious cat that Brodingles portrays perfectly.
the empress always felt more of a threat to me she was like this threatening figure through the entire dlc then when you open the door of stealing the timepieces and see right their it's so good!
I think one of the most impressive things about MOTI is how well they avert silent protagonists; Frisk, Chrono, Red, and now Hat Kid- all heroes that canonically never speak a peep as far as proper, written dialog goes, yet these songs expand upon what we know of these characters to give them fully-fledged personalities, and it’s done so seamlessly you don’t even bat an eye when they start singing with everyone else. Bonus points to EmilyGo VO as Hat Kid, because she also sounds spot on to Apphia Yu’s portrayal. Like, darn, MOTI; for the first proper Bytes series where you have actual voice acting to reference, I can tell you’ve put time and effort to getting everyone’s voice down just right. Well done, seriously; can’t wait to hear the full package back to back ^_^
Oh geez, I know this would happen... guys, I said “proper, _written_ dialog.” Yes, Hat Kid speaks all the time via voice clips, but she never directly has an exchange with other characters. Like, you could argue Mario talks all the time, too, but he’s still considered a silent protagonist for the most part... ...three people said the same thing, jeez la wheez ^_^;
I could honestly see that as the plot to the sequel. The entire game is trying to keep peace between them, while trying to stop moustache girl and snatcher from messing everything up :D
This reminded me of the fancomic where Hatkid was catching up with Snacher after a few years and revealed that she is a war criminal on multiple planets.
I can’t explain how....I don’t even have a word for it. Everyone did such a good job. Alex and everyone who works on these videos. Lyrics, singing, art, and more. All these Bytes have been so good and I can’t wait for the rest =)
I mean really! The quality of these videos, both old and new, is astonishing. I feel like this channel should have at least A Million Subscribers. It’s too bad that they’re not that well known.

@@drakath5727 But that would quite literally be the opposite of what the phrase means. The phrase "Honor Among Thieves" means that criminals don't interfere with the operations of other criminals. Hence why the Empress is saying "Looks like there never was honor among thieves" because Hat Kid stole the time pieces from her.

Once again, another great song to add to the AHIT musical bytes. But seriously when do we get mafia boss theme, I really like his theme and getting lyrics to it would be awesome
Imakuni_BoomAtack, That is a really good point, I didn't realize for Pokémon and I didn't watch the other one, I'm just guessing since I think it's a bigger song, and since no mustache girl was confirmed, the only ones I can think of are Mafia Boss, but there was already a song for that chapter, and for the cruise ship, I think ship shape has a chance, yet I don't think they're big enough songs.
So to summarise Battle for Award 42 covers Dead Bird Studio Mafia Town covers- well- Mafia Town Peace & Tranquillity covers Seal the Deal Rush Hour covers Nyakuza Metro The bonus is likely Your Contract Has Expired, which covers Subcon Forest If we’re getting one last song, we can expect either something from Alpine Skylines or Moustache Girl’s castle
Sm Beast Whoops, didn't know that was what you meant, also if there's another one it's Alpine Skylines or the Cruise Ship, since Mustache girl was deconfirmed, there isn't really another one.
*Snatcher* : AHAHAHAHAHA! FOOL! SHE SAW THE WARNINGS BUT YOU DIDN'T! SO NOW YOU'LL PAY THE PRICE, UNLESS YOU WANT A CONTRACT WITH ME, I COU-WAIT, ARE YOU STAYING INDOORS?! NOOOOOOOO! I'll GET YOU NEXT TIME! MARK MY WORDS! I'LL MAKE SOMETHING EVEN WORSE! REALITY TV!
4:27 is such a small detail to make her scream louder, but i love how it shows how she progressively gets more agressive towards her minions because shes such a powerful figure but cannot catch a child who stole from her
My favorite part is, "Learn this, Hat Kid, Better Run and Hide. Tried to steal from the queen now you're gonna die." It's so menacing and ominous in song. I love it.
Rush Hour: I'm the best song with lyrcis of A hat in Time! Battle of award 42: NO! I'm the best song with lyrics! Your contract has expired: Wait, you guys doesn't had already a video with lyrics? Pd: If you see that I writed something wrong is because I:m not english, also sometimes when I write my english grammar sucks
Every singer did an absolutely fantastic job, but the job done by Brodingles for The Empress has captured my ears. I could honestly envision the character singing like this, and it's fantastic.
0:26 I love this part because it acts like a pretty intense transition from the normally calm music of the metro to intense and adrenaline inducing tunes of rush hour(really love the chorus and cat lines as well)
I've been listening to this ever since it came out, and I just wanted to say some things. 1. When the chorus, Hat Kid, and Empress all sing together, they all kinda overlap eachother. The chorus is the quietest and hat kid and Empress kinda overtake everything, it's kinda hard to listen to after a while but feels really hyped up the first few times. Maybe one could overtake the other by a slight bit like how BOA42 did with the Conductor slightly overtaking DJ Grooves. 2. The first time I saw this I forgot at some points the purple text was the Empresses voice, it sounded more like one of the cat criminals tbh 🤷 3. I wish they changed the last line in the chorus after a few times of repeating, kinda like how genocide Hotland from UTTM did it. For example, instead of repeating "It is the Empress who wears the crown" near the end it'd change to "It is the Empress who'll take you down". I actually expected this the first time, and was surprised it didn't happen. But still, I really love this song. Emi did even better at Hat Kid's voice than she did at Mafia Town, and her lyrics are perfect. And near the end when she repeats the lyrics, she does them at higher notes. And I like how whenever the Empress says "Lazy paws, do your job!" she gets angrier every time.
This song is absolutely puuuurfect. The oriental theme, the rhyming in perfect timing with the theme and the story is presented across the song just to give context. It really is a great song and I look forward to the eventual 1-hour version Also: "Lets do a test, see if you've got nine lives, *then take them all 'till your paying the price*" Shivers, man. Shivers. Specially on "Then take them all" in a different infliction.
Play It Play It Play It. It's so worth the money. make sure you have a decent PC thought because the game is harder to run than it looks. especially the nyakuza DLC, I have like a really good pc and it dropped to around 40 FPS in some areas
@@berrybee9242 Or you could get the Switch Version, it's not really as bad as people say it is. (and this is coming from a guy who 100% both the Steam and Switch Versions with the DLC)
It has been 4 years and I still love the little details, like a subtle chorus effect I can faintly notice on the backup singers (making it seem like there's more voices than there are), the way Hat Kid seems scared during her first verse, but sounds a bit more confident afterwards, and the fact that Empress gradually gets more annoyed every time she says "Lazy paws, do your job!"
One of my favorite songs and levels in the game. These lyrics are perfect too. It actually sounds like a crime organization trying to catch and kill this kid who’s just desperate to get home.
Rush Hour is my second favorite song, and this is absolutely amazing!! I love the lyrics so much!!! I really wish The Empress had a backstory, she's such an intimadating and intriguing character, but instead they gave a backstory to Rumbi! I really really hope we learn her backstory some day. Like, where did she get all those scars? How was she able to take over the metro? Amazing job on this!
Wait so the Empress shoots out rockets That have heads literally as a diamond So if the diamond doesn't shatter after the explosion Does that mean you can get Stonks by taking the diamond and selling it without Empress' knowledge?
Uh, i never head nothing about this channel, and the youtube simple give me this on a silver plate on my recommendeds...I think i have a new favorite channel.
For some reason this song makes me think of the second half of John Wick 2, where every assassin in New York tries to take a pop at Wick for the bounty. Especially at the verse that begins "Sound the alarm, nobody gets away!", I can imagine the cats all arming up to run down Hat Kid with every weapon they can muster.
Everyone did such a great job with this one, and the blending between the three parts is lovely! Special mention to Brodingles, who absolutely knocked it out of the park! I love it!

1:28 Calm Enough.
3:17 Annoyed.
4:26 Just Plain Mad.
Coincidentally every time she says it she sounds more like Undyne.
Hearing Hat Kid's lyrics, I get the sense of both fear due to the fact that an entire town is coming for her head. But I also get a sense of confidence, as if she's looking at this situation with the feeling of "Just another Tuesday."
*being chased / attacked by thousands of cats who want to capture her for the bounty, and also being chased by cat leader with a diamond rocket launcher*
Hat Kid: Just another day at the office.
her lyrics in a nutshell is basically,”No thanks,gotta go,bye!”
Which is perfect.
Tuesdays are fricking scary

Sm Beast And win. Unlike the Empress, he got a proper boss fight.
I have a headcanon that Empress tried to extort money and blackmail The Conductor but he grabbed his knives and gave Empress her scar
That would be interesting but don’t cats hate birds so he would probably outnumbered
Plot twist: Maybe hat kid is allergic to cats and that's why she instanly dies to the empress, she has a lot of fur!
Hmmmmm.....
@@azurimiratheblueaddict9560 yep
Oh maybe become she has fucking rocket launcher
@the Jevil A rocket launcher that fire cats
The beginning gave me Major genocide Hotland vibes.
Glad I'm not the only one who thought that XD
The human tries to attack the Nyakuza Metro...
But the cats aren’t backing down without a fight!
That was how it started but instead of empress it was Alphys
Genocide Hotland but Susie isn't having any of the Humans shit and forces them into a duet.
Bandana Dee
And she inspires a mob of other monsters to fight with her.
this is great i feel like i'm about to be beaten to death by creepy singing cats
Y'know, only the best of fealings
The art for this one was really fun to do! Empress's rocket launcher thing was the hardest part lol.
Excuse me, that's a ROCKET LAUNCHER. Not a gun, not a cannon, a pecking rocket launcher.
@@m90e Yes
Helga M. you could just say ‘thanks’ to the artist for making the art for free for the video. Not a big deal. I’m gonna call it ‘just a huge gun’ now.
@@m90e Good to know!
My bird started singing along to this midway through. I guess not all birds hate cats.
Cuttteee!
I think I know one who might.
Interesting
That Bad BLU Spy and who?😉
@@carolrickroll767 He goes by the name "Conductor".
“Looks like there was never honor among thieves” was that a sly cooper rephrase witch btw you should definitely do some sly cooper songs
the phrase "honour among thieves" existed way before sly
Yeah I guess sly was just the first thing I thought of when I heard it
Well yes but actually yes
Imakuni_BoomAtack Imagine Man on the Internet making lyrics for “A Strange Reunion”. That would be a really interesting performance.
@@drakath5727 But that would quite literally be the opposite of what the phrase means. The phrase "Honor Among Thieves" means that criminals don't interfere with the operations of other criminals. Hence why the Empress is saying "Looks like there never was honor among thieves" because Hat Kid stole the time pieces from her.
this needs a one hour version, this is way too good
You could even say it'd be a Rush _Hour_
get it?
c- cause hou-
ill leave now

Chorus:
You should know
Who runs this town
It is the Empress
Who wears the crown
Learn this, Hat Kid, better run and hide
Tried to steal from the queen, now you’re gonna die
Stick your hand in the jar, you’re gonna get fried
‘Cause no one gets away from the Empress tonight
Empress:
No mistakes, time to pay for your childish greed
This is what you get when you try to cross me
Looks like there never was honor among thieves
This is what you get for stealing from the queen!

Hat Kid:
Gotta run, I gotta go
Ticket’s punched, ride the metro
The cat’s got the claws out
Got no time left to pause now
Evading her power
Running through rush hour
Now I’ve done the crime
I’m taking back my time!
Empress:
Could have been something more staying at my side
Take the jewels like a fool, I take your hide
Lazy paws, do your job, now we’re out to ride
Show her who makes the trains run on time!
Make an example of every treachery
This is what you get when you try to cross me
Took a piece of the pie for your gluttony
But I’ll carve out what’s mine, no one steals from the queen!
Let’s do a test, see if you’ve got nine lives
Then take ‘em all, ‘til you’re paying the price
You should have known this wouldn’t be nice
You can’t escape from the Empress Eyes!

Put on a bounty, we’d retire in days!
Saddle up, cats, we’re gonna get paid!

When you take from the vault, you will grind to a halt
You will bow and exalt, or you’ll taste the asphalt
No one challenges the crown, turn the place upside down
You can’t hide from my eyes ‘cause the cats run the town

At least we have rush hour, it compest peace and tranquility.
I never knew that the Empress was secretly Susie Deltarune.
Empress Susie : Time pieces are just save states that go across space and time! You'd do well to bow!
Lol funny. But yeah I think they used that voice actor.
hat kid is secretly ralsei deltarune meaning hat kid is asriel undertale
What
Omg wow Susie was secretly playing as EMPRESS for the musical!
Once again, another great song to add to the AHIT musical bytes.
But seriously when do we get mafia boss theme, I really like his theme and getting lyrics to it would be awesome
I agree, Mafia Boss's theme is amazing, and I would really like to see it, but since the final package comes on July fourth, it probably won't happen.
Imakuni_BoomAtack, That is a really good point, I didn't realize for Pokémon and I didn't watch the other one, I'm just guessing since I think it's a bigger song, and since no mustache girl was confirmed, the only ones I can think of are Mafia Boss, but there was already a song for that chapter, and for the cruise ship, I think ship shape has a chance, yet I don't think they're big enough songs.
The thing is, all the bonus songs so far have been songs already on the channel, so the one for this package will most likely be Snatcher
So to summarise
Battle for Award 42 covers Dead Bird Studio
Mafia Town covers- well- Mafia Town
Peace & Tranquillity covers Seal the Deal
Rush Hour covers Nyakuza Metro
The bonus is likely Your Contract Has Expired, which covers Subcon Forest
If we’re getting one last song, we can expect either something from Alpine Skylines or Moustache Girl’s castle
Sm Beast Whoops, didn't know that was what you meant, also if there's another one it's Alpine Skylines or the Cruise Ship, since Mustache girl was deconfirmed, there isn't really another one.
Everyone in the Empress's gang had masks on....
She knew.
She predicted this epidemic before it started
*Snatcher* : AHAHAHAHAHA! FOOL! SHE SAW THE WARNINGS BUT YOU DIDN'T! SO NOW YOU'LL PAY THE PRICE, UNLESS YOU WANT A CONTRACT WITH ME, I COU-WAIT, ARE YOU STAYING INDOORS?! NOOOOOOOO!
I'll GET YOU NEXT TIME! MARK MY WORDS! I'LL MAKE SOMETHING EVEN WORSE! REALITY TV!
Japan always had the habit of frequent mask wearing long before pandemics were ever a thing...
The Nyakuza were prepared for the Alpine Skyline finale.

The greatest Cat-Related Musical that's been released between 2019 and 2020.
*Hmmmmmmm*
No other cat related musicals have come out, not at all, nope!
What about...
Oh wait, that one sucked. Never mind. 😅
4:27 is such a small detail to make her scream louder, but i love how it shows how she progressively gets more agressive towards her minions because shes such a powerful figure but cannot catch a child who stole from her
My favorite part is, "Learn this, Hat Kid, Better Run and Hide. Tried to steal from the queen now you're gonna die."
It's so menacing and ominous in song. I love it.
Rush Hour: I'm the best song with lyrcis of A hat in Time!
Battle of award 42: NO! I'm the best song with lyrics!
Your contract has expired: Wait, you guys doesn't had already a video with lyrics?
Pd: If you see that I writed something wrong is because I:m not english, also sometimes when I write my english grammar sucks
And where are ya from ?
I love how neither Mafia Town nor Peace and Tranquility made it on this little tier list
Quick note: Doesn't should be didn't. Keep working on it though, English is dumb so I can't blame you for getting it wrong.
@@dragonace5177 German is harder
Edit : I'm German
You Are All Bad Guys: "You guys are getting lyrics?"
i love the cat that drops down at 2:39 and bops hat kid before vanishing
Hey at least the empresses cats are following quarantine rules with the masks
Except for that one cat who has hole you can see him screaming/singing
(No Offence to the people who made the amazing art for this song)
@@BlazeGalaxy25 I'm pretty sure that's just a design on the mask, similar to the cat face design on Hat Kid's mask in-game
You know it's bad when videogame cats are better at quarantine than most of America
And yet she isn't wearing a mask herself. Talk about hypocrisy.
ME WHEN THE VOICE ACTOR OF THE EMPRESS SINGS
Every singer did an absolutely fantastic job, but the job done by Brodingles for The Empress has captured my ears. I could honestly envision the character singing like this, and it's fantastic.
The empress doesn’t sound exactly like the original version but I quite like the change and feel like her “new” voice sounds better
Canon Empress sounds intimidating, while this Empress sounds scary.
Ether way she's still out to get you
"You should have know this wouldn't be nice" Sounds similar to the line in Your Contract has Expired "Should've know I wasn't nice"
Yo when she puts her finger up at 0:11 is *S Y N C E D*
1:57 H m m m that seems awfully familiar as well
THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT TOO!
Hat Kid: "HEY SNATCHER DO YOU WANT ANOTHER SOUL? WELL I FOUND SOMEONE IS STEALING YOUR LINES!"
3:56 This might be my favorite piece of art work for this series. Props to the artist
Is time to rush.
Nyoom
VROOOM
You should know who runs this town...
Neeeeeeeerrrooom
Ptchooooo
That’s one bad kitty kat
I love the voice for the Empress tbh, it fits perfectly.
Missed opportunity not rhyming "I'm taking back what's mine" with "This is A Hat in Crime"
0:26
I love this part because it acts like a pretty intense transition from the normally calm music of the metro to intense and adrenaline inducing tunes of rush hour(really love the chorus and cat lines as well)
when you want to listen to the bangers this channel puts out but you also don't want to spoil the game for yourself...
Why can i relate to this comment on a personal level.
Anyone realize there’s two papyrus in the comment section? Fight for the title.
The “Your Contract has Expired” cover is what actually inspired me to try the game and I love it now, so it’s not the worst thing
Good news, A Hat In Time is now 50% off on Steam...I think
@@SenkingFar Oh no, he's papyrus, i'm just the cooler papyrus.
Forget the musical bytes! We want a musical!
Agreed
from random encounters?
3:30
everyone : or you'll taste the asphalt
me: or you tasty as bald
lol XD
Hat Kid in Mafia Town: Come on, let’s be friends?
Hat Kid in Rush Hour: Fuck off, got a ship to fuel
Especially hilarious because this happens after she’s beaten Mustache Girl, meaning she probably has plenty of Time Pieces
I absolutely adored that. Everyone singing did phenomenal, the tension just kept rising and rising and it was amazing! Great work everyone!
I've been listening to this ever since it came out, and I just wanted to say some things.
1. When the chorus, Hat Kid, and Empress all sing together, they all kinda overlap eachother. The chorus is the quietest and hat kid and Empress kinda overtake everything, it's kinda hard to listen to after a while but feels really hyped up the first few times. Maybe one could overtake the other by a slight bit like how BOA42 did with the Conductor slightly overtaking DJ Grooves.
2. The first time I saw this I forgot at some points the purple text was the Empresses voice, it sounded more like one of the cat criminals tbh 🤷
3. I wish they changed the last line in the chorus after a few times of repeating, kinda like how genocide Hotland from UTTM did it. For example, instead of repeating "It is the Empress who wears the crown" near the end it'd change to "It is the Empress who'll take you down". I actually expected this the first time, and was surprised it didn't happen.
But still, I really love this song. Emi did even better at Hat Kid's voice than she did at Mafia Town, and her lyrics are perfect. And near the end when she repeats the lyrics, she does them at higher notes. And I like how whenever the Empress says "Lazy paws, do your job!" she gets angrier every time.
This song is absolutely puuuurfect. The oriental theme, the rhyming in perfect timing with the theme and the story is presented across the song just to give context. It really is a great song and I look forward to the eventual 1-hour version
Also: "Lets do a test, see if you've got nine lives, *then take them all 'till your paying the price*" Shivers, man. Shivers. Specially on "Then take them all" in a different infliction.
Why is this so good it wants me to play this game badly
Play It Play It Play It. It's so worth the money. make sure you have a decent PC thought because the game is harder to run than it looks. especially the nyakuza DLC, I have like a really good pc and it dropped to around 40 FPS in some areas
@@berrybee9242 Or you could get the Switch Version, it's not really as bad as people say it is. (and this is coming from a guy who 100% both the Steam and Switch Versions with the DLC)
Beautiful..So beautiful..I really loved this OST in the Nyakuza DLC.
Y o u
@@kobieharrison8931 yes me
Double Dimentio channels.
Dude I found you after years! I found this and snatchers song awesome as I was playing a hat in time!
It has been 4 years and I still love the little details, like a subtle chorus effect I can faintly notice on the backup singers (making it seem like there's more voices than there are), the way Hat Kid seems scared during her first verse, but sounds a bit more confident afterwards, and the fact that Empress gradually gets more annoyed every time she says "Lazy paws, do your job!"
mafia boss: *duel cleavers*
the queen: *one handing a bazooka*
"Got no time left to pause now"
Meanwhile player: *oh yea?*
One of my favorite songs and levels in the game. These lyrics are perfect too. It actually sounds like a crime organization trying to catch and kill this kid who’s just desperate to get home.
Why does this song literally give me chills
Edit: I get chills when the cats say "saddle up cats were gonna get payed!"
Every time I watch this, I always watch the gameplay. Every time I watch, I always wonder how hat kid survived this. 1:41
Rush Hour is my second favorite song, and this is absolutely amazing!! I love the lyrics so much!!! I really wish The Empress had a backstory, she's such an intimadating and intriguing character, but instead they gave a backstory to Rumbi! I really really hope we learn her backstory some day. Like, where did she get all those scars? How was she able to take over the metro? Amazing job on this!
I think you meant "Could have had a backstory" and not "had a backstory" because...she didn't
@@alexandalicefromtwitter8769 ok???????

Wait so the Empress shoots out rockets
That have heads literally as a diamond
So if the diamond doesn't shatter after the explosion
Does that mean you can get Stonks by taking the diamond and selling it without Empress' knowledge?
Yes. Get those *stonks.*
Please put this on Spotify. I love your music, and I want to be able to listen 24/7. Plus, this song is blazing blue fire!
Me: Comes back after 10 times of watching it
My Mom: Maybe you should lay off of watching this..
Me: *YoU sHouLd KnOw WhO rUns tHiS toWn....*
This is the best one of these memes I've seen!😂
Fido and The cakes thank you so much!
Joey Hill that is funny but I put it on full volume and no one cares so...
Relatable.
I would definitely be interested in a full musical for A Hat in Time, so far I've loved the musical bytes of it. You never seem to disappoint MOTI!
Uh, i never head nothing about this channel, and the youtube simple give me this on a silver plate on my recommendeds...I think i have a new favorite channel.
For some reason this song makes me think of the second half of John Wick 2, where every assassin in New York tries to take a pop at Wick for the bounty. Especially at the verse that begins "Sound the alarm, nobody gets away!", I can imagine the cats all arming up to run down Hat Kid with every weapon they can muster.
After the last one I was honestly wondering how they'd do this. Not a week through and they already did it!
The Masters at work!
Perhaps this cat Queen is actually Queen Elizabeth. That would explain why she is still alive. after all, cats have nine lives.
Wasn’t Marie Curie the one that was executed
Gmegaboy Pretty sure Marie Curie was the one who died of radiation.
@@gmegaboy4873 It was Marie Antoinette that got executed. Marie Curie died due to radiation.
Everyone did such a great job with this one, and the blending between the three parts is lovely! Special mention to Brodingles, who absolutely knocked it out of the park! I love it!
