Seeing Terry Crews not only play D&D, but get so hyped and have so much fun is all I could ask for. I really could feel his energy, I hope he keeps playing!
Well the dude bought a gaming PC, just to spend some quality fun-time together with his son. He also likes to draw and paint. Looks can be deciving, I mean Vin Diesel, who played D&D since his win-years is another great example for this!
@@kanedonnahue2712 I watched it again specifically screenshotting all moment's where his eyes are clearly visible, just because I felt the need to factcheck and you are a bleeding liar
They are playing D&D 5th edition, looks like the DM took the spells and Classes from WoW and adapted them; or took them from the Warcraft RPG. ask @matthewmercer on twitter, maybe you'll get an answer.
warchief..... of the night elf mohawks?!?!? though for real do miss that wacky event. actually yes! we need NIGHT ELF MOHAWKS BACK! the horde comes and destory tiedressal (if mispelled that then sorry) and the ancient gaurdians must reawaken to give mohawk justice. leading them is terry crews the next champion chosen by war party leader Tee to aid their ppl! the ones that question him being war leader because he has no hair YOU FOOLS just grab malfurian moon ointment and splash that over his head and boom magic! how you think mal has that massive beard hm.
I know I'm gonna catch hell for this...but this is why I like watching/playing with newbies...Unlike half the veteran players I've run with, whose gaming consists of number crunching an obscenely single purpose build, or trying to mary sue as hard as possible...New players tend RP more and do things just because they sound fun or cool, which often leads to far more entertaining sessions.
D&D ASMR i totally agree, vets tend to tryhard a bit. I like to make really good characters but i also like to RP, and mess a bit. I see a dragon im gonna try to punch it. Doing that lets me see if my group is cool or not. They laugh and agree then they’re good and ill stay. They groan and act fed up i usually leave depending on the amount of groans.
To each their own, and I actually enjoy the RP bit, but I've actually noticed the opposite. New players tend to get too invested in the numbers, attempting to kill, rob, or gain any loot or XP that they can, while also trying to deal as big numbers as possible. On the opposing hand, I've noticed players that have played every type of every class ever tend to not care too much about the numbers they can get, because they already *know* the numbers they can get, so they try to flavor it up with crazy roleplay. I mean, Critical Role as a whole is a good evidence of a bunch of vets playing to roleplay and not number-crunch. This is coming from me who just recently breached out from "munchkin"ing too hard because I didn't feel comfortable playing D&D for awhile, I focused on the numbers because I was afraid of being seen as weird or "too into it". Roleplayed a bit more for the first time a couple months ago and I'm settling more and more into it!
I think Terry Crews was the most compassionate Orc Warrior I have ever seen. I really enjoyed how excited he got over everything. Then I got chills when Troy Baker first introduced his character, I loved how seriously he took it. Was an awesome show. Cannot wait for BfA and would love to play a tabletop WoW adventure some day.
I like the idea of having two opposing parties who must choose to either fight each other, or fight a common enemy, and deal with the interaction of it all. Great game to watch.
And it's surprising to me that this comment (and yes, I've scrolled a bit here) doesn't have more upvotes. I can't think of any moment where A&H actually had to fight a single enemy whilst annihilating each other for the loot in the actual WoW game, PvP mixed with PvE would be awesome, Let Blizz Know!
@@aaronaticx Well, Island Expeditions were a thing (they were on an island expedition in this one-shot), but that didn't work out quite like they thought lmao
I saw this post, and doubted the Mercer thinking ah man this is going to be forced and awkward. But he killed it as he is known to do. I apologize for my lack of faith.
Every word troy says in character is just beautiful, like a script, and it's so authentic that it's wild he is a VOA and not on screen way more...i mean look at that head of hair. Lol incredible
I am so happy this is "uncut"! Two and a half hours is way more than I expected, to be quite honest, just based on previous CelebriD&D installments. This whole thing is extremely my shit!
Since this episode was "sponsored" by Word of Warcraft, they probably had a bigger budget to work with and were able to to leave this one relatively uncut. It's literally a two and a half hour promo for Blizzards new expansion.
I was just thinking this. His immediate sense of RPing and fun is amazing. What an awesome episode. Terry Crews and Troy Baker having all the fun with Mercer as DM
It's like how many Rottweilers and pit bulls are trained as ferocious guard dogs, but those that are raised as pets in loving homes are sweet and lovey.
Damn Terry was such a great sport. I've only known him from those po po po po power commercials. I expected an over hyped barbarian yelling all the time, but he was actually so respectful, a fun innovate player. Props to you Terry
Bruh... Terry Crews is one of the coolest people in Hollywood, right up there with Keanu Reeves. Check out more of his work he's actually more of a comedian than a macho man.
"I am a human" "I am a dwarf" Yeah seems pretty basic alliance, let's see what Talesin has up his slee- "I am a void elf" OF COURSE you are, Talesin, of course you are.

"I gotcha Cap'n!" The Ritz is just such a brilliant character. I thought the Horde characters were just perfect as a team. Alliance were good but didn't have the same chemistry.
He took to it so naturally, I wouldn't have guessed it was his first time, love how he insisted on not helping the Horde at the end, real roleplay there.
I always love seeing people play dnd for the first time. Everybody always seems to feel awkward, right up until they get their first high damage roll. The smile that goes across their faces are worth it. Everybody always has fun, and it’s fantastic to see.
This is my first time watching a DnD campaign, ever. Terry Crews brought me here, and now I'm hooked. The DM was great, loved the characters, and the way the story played out was a lot of fun.
maybe next time Vin Diesel can be sober for the game because he was high as fucking hell in his one shot with Critical Role. Also was a bit shit at first watching him try and act like Mr I gotta Be Tough all the time but then when he finally decided to join the game later in the one shot you could see him ACTUALLY be a player and not hollywood tough boy.
@Josh Shin Admittedly a high player is a bit of fun in its own way albeit a sober player is a nice comparison (Vin actually is there for more of the session rather than just physically).
LOSING MY COMPOSURE Troy's my fave VA, and it's ABOUT DAMN TIME I imagine that conversation (#542) went something like: Matt: Hey you know I keep taking over your abandoned anime character roles, I think it's time to turn in that favor and play some D&D Troy: Ah hell if it'll shut you up *later* Troy: WHAT TOOK ME SO LONG?
Jonathan Holt - No spoilers, but the video description says "Terry Crews is Thodak the Blacksmith- joined by Troy Baker, Ashly Burch, Jessica Chobot, Taliesin Jaffe, and Marisha Ray with Dungeon Master Matt Mercer". I'd keep watching ;D
every time I find out something new about Terry Crews the guy becomes more talented, relatable, amazing and nerdy... there's just nothing to dislike about him.
I really like Terry Crews. I saw him on Hot Ones and he's a real genuine dude. This video cemented that for me. I'd love that guy in my DnD group any day.
The best I ever read about was a mage who shrunk down cannon balls and then mounted a magic ring on the end of his gun that would remove the shrinkage. Loaded the cannon balls like bullets and fired. As they passed out of the end of the gun they reverted back into cannon balls.
i find it ironic that neither Laura Bailey, who plays Jaina Proudmoore or Liam O'Brian AKA Illidan Stormrage in WoW are not present for a World of Warcraft-themed campaign
I like that the way you worded your comment indicates that Laura only portrays Jaina in the games, but Liam is literally Illidan, just under a different alias in-game as opposed to real life.
@@Dorokill And Taliesin voices Darion Mograine. I forget the others, but several of the CR main cast is in WoW, sometimes in multiple roles. To be fair, half the industry is probably in WoW. It's a big game with a huge cast of characters.
First time watching an actual D&D sesh. Pretty cool and really awesome to see Terry, he is such a humble guy. Thank you for this. Glad to see everyone having a good time.
I like that they show you what they ROLL + The modifier + any other bonus's.. so i really like this format. I wish they did this on regular crit role upon editing.
First of all, this was amazing. Terry was so energetic and I loved all the characters. Marisha's Ritz shined to me, though. So, here are some personal timestamps for when I want to visit this awesome oneshot again (spoilers): 2:00 The Horde 2:13 Goblin Fights 3:57 Elvis 15:42 Undead?

Matt is always making all this homebrew stuff for these games :) WOW style fireball with an attack roll, and the warrior gaining rage on his hits... So good. Matt is such a gift.
Ragegeneration on auto-attacks has been a thing since at least wrath if not TBC. It’s ‘only’ translation to d&d terms. Still fantastically adapted though
ROLES 18 +4 survival. "You shout and the trees move out your way, they are very respectful of your presence here" amazing RPG visual aid for an amzing role. This is why i love playing a RPG the use of the imagination to create these world's is simple blissful
I love how into it they all got about halfway through, then getting bummed by the rolls of terry and his team, ive been there so many times. 😂😂 that ending tho....😮
OMG what an amazing Episode. Terry was awesome, and Troy simply amazing with his role playing. Everyone else did such a great job with their characters. I would love to see Troy play in Critical Role's current campaign at some point in the future. Please bring us more CelebriD&D episodes. I can't get enough of them. Matt as always you are a national treasure to the D&D fans. Thank you to everyone behind the scenes and in front for this amazing story.
Terry, I love how diverse and open minded of a person you are, not only for doing this show but all the other things you speak out for and participate in.
Man... how i never had stumble on it before? Thats a lot of fun going on through this, and i only watch to the first part till now! The undead "Elvis"; Crews as "The Blacksmith"; the bargain with the ghost/troll ("we'll get you latter" LoL). I also almost saw some lost oportunity for some Old Spice merchandise when Terry loud thought about Thodak's armor when they drop at beach. Plus, the guy are amazing - as the whole group! A sense of humor so great or even bigger than his own bulky body - and not that boring dark kind of humor everyone wrongly abuse nowadays; it's really motivating to see how they face the situations lead by a so inspiring smart spirit while things untangle at Matt's top notch ruling.
@@K_i_t_t_y84 I think they were referring more to the general tones of the playerbase. Just the vibe of the factions tends to attract different types of players. Horde players tend to be more interested in being chaotic, and thus more fun-loving and freestyling (also has more trolls and griefers), whereas alliance players are the ones who want to be noble and magnanimous. (obviously there's plenty of both on both sides, this is just in terms of general vibe-check)
Highly enjoyable. Also it's good to know ahead of time why I'm going to see a ton of Mag'har orcs named Thodak, Tthodak, Thodakk, Thodaak, Thodank, etc in-game.
I - Love - it!!! “... and that’s what we get for having a drunk captain!” Awesome new players! Always fun to watch newcomers get heart palpitations from playing DnD. 💞💖💯
"Thodak, the Blacksmith" "Thordak, the Cinder King" Blacksmiths work with fire... a really good blacksmith might be called a king. Terry Crews confirmed to be Thordak!
Fjord unfortunately doesn't have the required levels of PURE UNADULTERATED TESTOSTERONE (POOOOOOOWWEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!) to play with the big boys
Best part has to be Terry telling the Ghost demanding it's body "We'll get you later" is funnier than most sessions I play and mine has a giant farting chicken.
That was so good, loved the warcraft theme!!! Terry Crews rocks! It must've been hard for Troy too but he did a good job as well, he has an epic voice and personality when he turns it on.
Terry subtly hinting they shouldve provided snacks for the session through constant roleplay
Bruh😭😭😭
Snacks are part of the game. I feel you T-Man
@@dukemarlar1740
They probably didn't want crunching on the mic.
Jogurt snack ;-)))
Terry loves yogurt.

That would be epic. Especially Troy Baker.
I love how much Terry Crews looks like he is having fun.
I know, right!?
Almost like d&d is fun or something lol
Rolling dice is always fun.

So Taliesin Jaffe playing as Taliesin Jaffe
I main a Void Elf Rogue, so im happy to know im playing as Taliesin

I've heard Matthew Mercer speak in a Jamaican Warcraft troll accent. My life is complete.
Abelhawk He actually voices a troll in WoW
General Vezax, Halion, Captain Drok and Kilrogg Deadeye are the voices hes done, non of which are trolls.
He's done a lot more voices. Usually orcs, humans, and the occasional other race. But this is his first troll that I know of.
I saw this post, and doubted the Mercer thinking ah man this is going to be forced and awkward. But he killed it as he is known to do. I apologize for my lack of faith.
Timestamp?
Holy crap I knew Troy Baker was a good voice actor but wow! That character intro. That's why that guy gets hired for all the big roles in games.
Troy - "I've dreamt of this moment for 2 years!"

"I gotcha Cap'n!" The Ritz is just such a brilliant character. I thought the Horde characters were just perfect as a team. Alliance were good but didn't have the same chemistry.
I also loved that Marisha quoted some of the generic goblin lines (like "Time's money, friend."), seems like she played horde in her days ;)
They never do.
Just like in the game!
You have to Admit that it was all Terry's energy and passion for his Orc character that made this session turn out the way I'd hoped it was going.
Goddamn can we PLEASE get Troy Baker on Critical Role!!!
He took to it so naturally, I wouldn't have guessed it was his first time, love how he insisted on not helping the Horde at the end, real roleplay there.

It's been 4 years and I still find myself watching this great adventure every once in a while. I wish there were more adventures with Terry in 'em.
Big movie actor has not alot of time to play. But it be fun to see him again in DnD session
Now we just need terry crews and vin diesel to play dnd together with mercer. Just another step toward the greatest buddy cop movie never written.
With Stephen Colbert as the Chief of Police!
Add in Joe Mangianello and the game would become a geyser of awesome.
And Danielle Radcliffe as the villain! But he's played by Elijah Wood
maybe next time Vin Diesel can be sober for the game because he was high as fucking hell in his one shot with Critical Role. Also was a bit shit at first watching him try and act like Mr I gotta Be Tough all the time but then when he finally decided to join the game later in the one shot you could see him ACTUALLY be a player and not hollywood tough boy.

Terry Crews is one of the greatest gifts this planet has ever been given.
1:23:37 Probably one of the most ingenius plays I have ever witnessed in D&D .. force them to be honest...to cause in-fighting.
That's why D&D is the best game!
I mean, it didn't work, but a cool strategy for more disagreeable groups... I liked the obvious Dr. Phil moment, and Troy did a very good imitation!
The best I ever read about was a mage who shrunk down cannon balls and then mounted a magic ring on the end of his gun that would remove the shrinkage. Loaded the cannon balls like bullets and fired. As they passed out of the end of the gun they reverted back into cannon balls.

I love how mercer was making the other 2 players call out their rolls and what they are adding so terry could get the hang of it
i find it ironic that neither Laura Bailey, who plays Jaina Proudmoore or Liam O'Brian AKA Illidan Stormrage in WoW are not present for a World of Warcraft-themed campaign
I like that the way you worded your comment indicates that Laura only portrays Jaina in the games, but Liam is literally Illidan, just under a different alias in-game as opposed to real life.
but what about Travis? he voices Gazlowe
@@Dorokill man even after seeing his video on him voicing gazlowe i just can't understand how he does it so well
@@Dorokill As well as Turalyon
@@Dorokill And Taliesin voices Darion Mograine. I forget the others, but several of the CR main cast is in WoW, sometimes in multiple roles. To be fair, half the industry is probably in WoW. It's a big game with a huge cast of characters.
I have a hard time imagining Thodak doing all this. I imagine Terry with dreadlocks doing all this
Bj Bulgherini Thodak is just Disguise Self. It IS Terry the entire time.
FOR THE HORDE! Terry actually jived really well with the crew, that was awesome!
I see what you did there
Terry Crews in a D&D game...I literally couldn't click fast enough on this
And Mercer DMing too
Dude same I was bought at the thumbnail
CORRECT
First time watching an actual D&D sesh. Pretty cool and really awesome to see Terry, he is such a humble guy. Thank you for this. Glad to see everyone having a good time.
Those final words were absolutly PERFECT! :'D 10/10 couldn't have spoken better words!
I like that they show you what they ROLL + The modifier + any other bonus's.. so i really like this format. I wish they did this on regular crit role upon editing.

(Everyone comment so this goes up the thread)
Thanks for this
Bless.
Do you have the timestamp for when Matt says to Terry that he is so lucky at rolling dice. It was right when they were fighting the alliance.
Up up up we go
Matt is always making all this homebrew stuff for these games :)
WOW style fireball with an attack roll, and the warrior gaining rage on his hits... So good. Matt is such a gift.
Ragegeneration on auto-attacks has been a thing since at least wrath if not TBC. It’s ‘only’ translation to d&d terms. Still fantastically adapted though
Pretty sure fireball is just a reskinned fire bolt, since at level 5 the cantrip would deal 2d10. Still, the warrior gaining rage is a nice touch.
Why am I imagining a massive orc with rippling muscles just yelling at me to buy the wow version of old spice when I look at terry?
Honestly Terry Embodied the spirit of the horde perfectly, its the alliance that always seems to falter it's honor every time...
Taliesin the Void elf X)
It's seems so obvious to me now
First vin diesel... Now terry crews? Love it.... MORE!
behold! The mighty NEIN-NEIN!
Edit: holy shit, that’s a lot of likes. Thanks for liking my dumb joke guys!
Hahaha yes!!
well played
Hell Yes! Nein-Nein!
Someone make the fanart NOW
Mitchell Hanna BOOM! Nailed it!
ROLES 18 +4 survival. "You shout and the trees move out your way, they are very respectful of your presence here" amazing RPG visual aid for an amzing role. This is why i love playing a RPG the use of the imagination to create these world's is simple blissful
It's his fluidity with storytelling that adds to Matthew Mercer's outstanding prowess as a DM.
Never thought I would want ogre marital disputes.
but I gotta say, I'm not disappointed
I came for Terry Crews, but then I came for Troy Bakers acting.
I just simply came.
"That sentence didn't make s-... oh..."
W-wha... I... n-not...

This episode officially made me brave enough to invite my friends to play D&D with me. Thanks Terry
How did it go?
@@burrito_overlord8638 I only got 1 to play… then I impregnated her. Now I have a baby boy lol.
@@johndotcom9648 MY MAN!
I feel like I’ve stumbled into a wonderful celebration here lol
@@johndotcom9648 That is my favourite fucking comment of all time! I so hope that’s true 😂 🎉
I just want more T&T playing D&D, Troy and Terry were both just so amazing players here!
I love how into it they all got about halfway through, then getting bummed by the rolls of terry and his team, ive been there so many times. 😂😂 that ending tho....😮
“You bruised my heel, now I shall crush your head...” That is an epic way to use this text
Angelos 42 its extra fitting when you realise that its a biblical quote spoken by a priest who is drunk
I didn’t get it when I heard it but definitely got it seeing it text form. Good catch on you, and great use of the words by Troy
DEFINITELY and INFINITELY better to leave these (almost) uncut and unedited. Give us the full 2 hours long game instead of 15 to 30 minutes snippets.
These were heavily edited though ;)
You can find the full episode on Project Alpha
They have to edit it for PR reasons
Bull poop.
@@korenn9381 Not as cut up as Vin Diesel's.
The synchronized “oooOOOooo” at 23:08 is one of the cuter things I’ve seen in a while haha
"ayyyyyyy."
I found a new notification for my phone!
I say start at 23:00 so you can see what caused the synchronized oooOOooo... 😉
theRISEundaunted OMG thank you that is awesome!
OMG what an amazing Episode. Terry was awesome, and Troy simply amazing with his role playing. Everyone else did such a great job with their characters. I would love to see Troy play in Critical Role's current campaign at some point in the future. Please bring us more CelebriD&D episodes. I can't get enough of them. Matt as always you are a national treasure to the D&D fans. Thank you to everyone behind the scenes and in front for this amazing story.
Finally talked Troy into it eh?!! And dang Terry, never cease to amaze.
I love Terry. He brings such positive energy and charisma to everything he does.
He doesn't use the axe, he just shouts at the tree and it moves out of the way. He's orc Chuck Norris.
Correction, He's Orc Terry Crews. We all know he has a Charisma score of like 40...
Only 40? Charisma's not his dump-stat, man ;)
Chuck NORKis!
Terry Crews is such a legend. They should get him on again with Vin Diesel again
Crews vs Diesel
We need to make this happen.
Seein Matt and Troy near each other is amazing. I wish we could see more of them together
Now THAT was an epic D&D adventure. That table was so cool to watch they were all epic players. So awesome to see. ❤❤❤
Man, Troy Baker is amazing 😃
Terry loves his D&D games
Watching someone create their D&D character is the same as seeing into their soul. They create who they would most like to be. Love it!
Terry, I love how diverse and open minded of a person you are, not only for doing this show but all the other things you speak out for and participate in.
Man, Matthew's Goblin cracked me up. This guy is a legend
Literally anything this guy does, becomes a legendary story.
"Here's the thing, he took my eye..." Made me laugh so dang hard.
Ashly and Marisha play off each other so well; you can see it with Beau and Keg but even better on here!
"I know your wife. Just keep that in mind."
Thomas Wang xD best intimidation EVER
Best because she is literally Matt's wife.
Ravyn Darksong thank you for the explanation
Ravyn Darksong oh that makes it even better
I rolled high on my insight check, and I think I saw fear in Matt's eyes at that subtle threat.
Man... how i never had stumble on it before? Thats a lot of fun going on through this, and i only watch to the first part till now!
The undead "Elvis"; Crews as "The Blacksmith"; the bargain with the ghost/troll ("we'll get you latter" LoL).
I also almost saw some lost oportunity for some Old Spice merchandise when Terry loud thought about Thodak's armor when they drop at beach.
Plus, the guy are amazing - as the whole group! A sense of humor so great or even bigger than his own bulky body - and not that boring dark kind of humor everyone wrongly abuse nowadays; it's really motivating to see how they face the situations lead by a so inspiring smart spirit while things untangle at Matt's top notch ruling.
While the Horde is a bunch of jokers with a lot of joy, the Alliance is damn serious all the time - just like ingame.
YES
It helps that Terry Crews and Co. Are all 3 pretty naturally funny people.
Someone has to defend Azeroth and it sure isn’t gonna be the Horde
Gnomes, Dwarves and Draenei are all really cheerful people full of jokes and joy but let's ignore that for some reason.
@@K_i_t_t_y84 I think they were referring more to the general tones of the playerbase. Just the vibe of the factions tends to attract different types of players. Horde players tend to be more interested in being chaotic, and thus more fun-loving and freestyling (also has more trolls and griefers), whereas alliance players are the ones who want to be noble and magnanimous. (obviously there's plenty of both on both sides, this is just in terms of general vibe-check)
That after credits scene, absolute gold :D
Highly enjoyable. Also it's good to know ahead of time why I'm going to see a ton of Mag'har orcs named Thodak, Tthodak, Thodakk, Thodaak, Thodank, etc in-game.
"Anyone need a drink?" ...such a Captain Barbosa moment. That was so much fun to watch!
The new guys did well but kudos to Taliesin and Marisha for guiding them through and encouraging them to try things.
I love how both groups used diplomacy for their first encounters.
whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat
I knew i was going to have to stay on UA-cam for a few more minutes, yes!!!!! This is gonna be good.
Just a few more minutes, like 150 of them
minutes...
Ya minutes= hours
Nicholas Demichele hours = days
days = years
I - Love - it!!!
“... and that’s what we get for having a drunk captain!”
Awesome new players! Always fun to watch newcomers get heart palpitations from playing DnD.
💞💖💯
I'm half way through Terry Crews' book, he is quite a character himself and has helped me be better overall in many facets of my life.
Sorry but which book ? If you remember lol
Really love Matts ability to narrate and carry the storyline
"Thodak, the Blacksmith" "Thordak, the Cinder King" Blacksmiths work with fire... a really good blacksmith might be called a king.
Terry Crews confirmed to be Thordak!
If they make critical role a tv show y'all know who's gonna voice Thordak
Imagine Thodak, Grog, Fjord, & Arkhan meeting each other ;)
Altyrell my body is ready for this
Fjord unfortunately doesn't have the required levels of PURE UNADULTERATED TESTOSTERONE (POOOOOOOWWEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!) to play with the big boys
I am okay with this. Terry, Thordak, Thodak. He's a Triple T
Terry Crews: "I AM THODAK!"
Me: ...
Me: You mean Thordak???
Bianca Arcand it's Thodak now. Don't spoil things
the R is silent
Edit: meybe Terry is roleplaying a british orc, in which case the R is ofcourse silent
Whoa! Terry crews and Troy Baker I spent years of my gamer life confusing Matt and Troy voices I love this soooo much
2:29:32 Noticed how huge Terry's hands are going in for that high five.
I like this format of two teams having their own session first separately and then combining them at the end, hope to see more of that in the future.
Best part has to be Terry telling the Ghost demanding it's body "We'll get you later" is funnier than most sessions I play and mine has a giant farting chicken.
That was so good, loved the warcraft theme!!! Terry Crews rocks! It must've been hard for Troy too but he did a good job as well, he has an epic voice and personality when he turns it on.
