Ep 279: Best Laid Plans

We've got so much going on, we're practically a George RR Martin junt. Hilde and Auggie desperately try to find the right words to work with their new "friend", Colon Parentheses. Meanwhile, Squoitle and Pepperwillow engage in some will-they-won't-they while Apostolos and CB do some plot nonsense in the background. And then there's Mackie and Hopper, oh man, you won't even *believe* what's up with that whole deal. It's wild, y'all.PS: If you're a PepperBell truther, we've got a special after credits scene just for youCast ListStardaddy: StanGrace / Hopper / Squoitle Bells: GeoffCommodore Macdonald (Mackie) --burn: ColinDr. Hildegarde Hypatia Cade (Hilde) / C.
