@@Lostadvent It's definitely dip. He does the thing with his hand that people do when they are trying to pack the dip into the side of the can so it's easier to grab.
Well, Chidi would be perfect for that -- he's a teacher in Moral Philosophy. He could exploit his own indecisiveness to have the torture flip between scenarios.. :)
I hate that it took Kristen talking about it for me to realize this was Dax Shephard. I love how he's actually in the show now (though a minor character).
This episode was way great b/c Dax Shepard guest starred in it who was formerly from Parenthood on NBC as well as being Good Place co star Kristen Bell husband :)

I was thinking about how to _actually_ maximise Brent's misery, and it was a fun puzzle. My analysis: Guys like Brent don't respond to traditional torture because they're _reactive_ -- that is, they have _enemies,_ and most of what they do is to stick it to one of them: parents wanted them to get a "real" job, got the dodgiest one they could find; college turned them down, staunchly anti-intellectual; common decency frowns upon them, offends as many people as possible. Traditional physical torture makes _you_ the enemy, which does nothing but validate their worldview, so regardless of how much _pain_ you cause, there's a limit to how much _misery_ results. The trick to it is that their rebel instinct needs a target, and in the absence of one, it will turn inward; so, your job as a torturer is to _deny him an enemy._ In other words, to make him _torture himself._ An initial idea: take everything he raled on in life, be that smart people, sensitive minorities, functioning members of society etc., and condense all those traits into two people (there _must_ be more than one, so he's a minority voice; three or more is unnecessary). These people will wake him up in a house designed exactly to _their_ tastes (which means _against_ his), and explain to him that he's dead, the two of them are humans, and they're in the Good Place. They will tell him that he can't leave the house, despite the _wildest_ rager of all Eternity blaring right across the street, because he's not meant to be there: he was initially slated for the Bad Place, but they smuggled him out. That is all they will _directly_ tell him, at least at first, but the environmental story will be: the traits of his that landed him in the Bad Place were _exactly_ the ones that he agreed were flaws (whether they were good or bad); these two took a chance on him because they believed he had the potential to be good, and they did this at _great_ personal risk; and their objective is to teach him, through compassion and instruction, how to be a better person. Here's the dark twist: what they try to teach him, the challenges they set, will be presented as if they are basic; but in reality, they will always be just _slightly_ beyond what he can understand and achieve. As he gets better, the challenges get harder, and he never _quite_ succeeds, but he always gets close enough to want to keep trying. This whole time, the two people show obvious disappointment, but never anger or resentment, and they frequently miss opportunities they wanted to take because of their responsibilities with him. He may even try to expose himself to escape, but they will always cover him up by the skin of their teeth, clearly distressed but never turning on him. Thus, the only one to blame for his current situation, his failure, his hosts' misery, is himself. You want _misery,_ that's how you do it. (Note: this will _not_ work as a mutual torture scenario like Michael attempted, as no human possesses this degree of patience. This is, however, _much_ more efficient in both personnel and output. And it only takes a _slight_ modification to work under the new system.)

It's a shame that the next scene with Chidi and Chet isn't on youtube. It's so damn funny, especially with Chidi saying "Peep this, dawg.", and then saying "Yeah... I don't know... Mayb- **BALLTAP** "
My favorite part is when Dax's character tells Kristen's character "smash you later", I was like, for real though 😂😂😂
Lmao
Omg that was Dax right?!
Tato Plays It is, Kristens real husband 😂
@@xjenus7144 no ik it her husband but I was like...wait what?! Dax is in this?! 😂😂
Tato Plays oh lol, yea same! When i watched it for the first time i had the same reaction! 😂
I love how effortlessly Jason fits into/kinda enjoys the bad place haha
I mean he did come from Florida
Man, Jason looks good in that suit.
Jason looks good always
@@katiesowden4968 fr fr
That guy's Kristen's real life husband haha!
oh yeah! Dax Shepard, right?
My Crosby Braverman
Lololoolololol
I'll forever see him as Frito from Idiocracy lol
Dax shrepard
Jason could probably get away with ‘being a demon’ for a couple centuries
Until he actually has to torture
In the bad place i am pretty sure they have an phone like the galaxy phone but called it *MOTOROV* instead of Motorolla.
@@Wolfsbane909 I think that's just the Note 7.
I love that one line that Dax has when talking to Eleanor, i love this real live couple so much

Omg the foreshadowed Brent! I didn't even realize that! The writing... man.
That wasn't Brent. Brent died in a plane crash.
the best part "NNNNOOOOOO"
Jason's rhyme at the beginning and Chidi's "NO!" 😂😂
1:20 clever at managing to let out that "no"
Notice dax spitting his drink back in 1:07 Just noticed died instantly
na i think he has dip and thats just his spitting glass, or even nastier drink and spitting glass.
Roofied?
@@Lostadvent It's definitely dip. He does the thing with his hand that people do when they are trying to pack the dip into the side of the can so it's easier to grab.
I just knew there would be toxic masculinity in hell.
As expected
Toxic masculinity hell is Jason heaven. We haven't seen him this happy since the Pokémon balloon.
How to Faint And the sparkler
Well, that confirms it - we live in hell.
lonetruthseeker I was your 999th like
This episode was the best of the series this far. omg I am dead.
Me @EveryEpisodeEver
Jason being badass is everything hahahaha 🤣
Well, Chidi would be perfect for that -- he's a teacher in Moral Philosophy. He could exploit his own indecisiveness to have the torture flip between scenarios.. :)
Nah I’d say moral philosophy student Michael is the most dangerous tormentor he got the ideas and creativity to make it so much worse
Yeah, seemingly his friends found being friends with him torture, so...
I love when Dax and Kristen do things together 😂
1:00 He might be the same Brent from season 4
As cool as that'd be, I'm pretty sure they said he died in a plane crash when he tried to fly it himself.
I was thinking the exact same thing!
What's really quality about what Dax is doing? Anyone else notice that he's spitting his dip into a glass? Just classic D-Bag...good details!
I hate that it took Kristen talking about it for me to realize this was Dax Shephard. I love how he's actually in the show now (though a minor character).
Jason was so excited about the ball tap, lmao.
I love how Jason fits right in!
I freaked out when i saw dax and kristen talking to each othejrt!!!!h
"I know how I would say no, I'd be all like 'NOOOO!'" Gets me every time
The 'so weird' with a look of disgust and fascination after personally gets me
Hold on, is that a jazzy version of "Grandma got run over by a reindeer" playing in the background? XD
Very in character for hell
0:22 - _Fiiiirrrmmm_ balltap, bro.

Ball tap!
It’s funny af when chidi did the nut tap 😭😭😭
Omg i just realised that chet is dax shepard 😂 what?!
The levels of "oh, so you're the guy who is kissing my girl everyday" on top of a toxic masculinity theme are cracking me up 😂😂😂 #icannotsayno 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I didn't know that's Dad Shepard until I searched up "Dax shepard the good place"
Ball tap!!!!
Dax Shepard giving off big Frito Pendejo vibes here
I really hope some guy out there isn't going to try to start a ball tap trend, if it hasn't started already.
It was a thing ~2013, if I remember correctly.

Is the Brent the other guy was talking about, the same brent in season 4?
0:59
Is no one gonna point out that Brant might be the one in season 4?
Spoiler alert; it's a different Brent. Season 4's Brent died when he flew a helicopter while drunk
@@jaredliew998 Yeah, I thought about that
But 4 humans got revived and Michael meddled with human affairs, so maybe it also changed the way he died?
It kinda makes me wish the real Trent had appeared so we know if William Jackson Harper also played him. Who is the guy?
Hahaha, Dax!
0:06 NutriBoom exists in The Bad Place confirmed. No changes made whatsoever.
He sounds like Eric Andre’s “legalize ranch” character.
What season is this
Season 2 Ep 10
I just realized Chidi being confused for Trent is a play on how racist think all black people look the same. 😭 I never caught that.
Except... That is never really implied...
You are jumping to a conclusion purely based on Chidi being black... That is actually racist
Yeah it makes sense that all the demons would be racist.
It's a shame that the next scene with Chidi and Chet isn't on youtube. It's so damn funny, especially with Chidi saying "Peep this, dawg.", and then saying "Yeah... I don't know... Mayb- **BALLTAP** "
