** And at the third time they examine The Events Of The Past, Mari ''correctly'' guesses that [[spoiler: that the true villains of the game are Wendigos.Wendigos, eventually leading her to also guess that Hannah has become a Wendigo from eating Beth's corpse, and that Josh is out to get the rest of the party for revenge.]]



* By now suspecting that Josh is a serial killer in disguise, the two begin panicking as they descend into the lodge's CreepyBasement, and speculate that Josh will be waiting for [[EnsembleDarkHorse Sam]], ominously whispering "[[YouWillBeSpared Only you. Only you.]] [[VillainousCrush You will be my QUEEEEEN!]]" [[spoiler: Again, they're partly right about Josh being a bad guy.]]

* By now suspecting that Josh is a serial killer in disguise, the two begin doing as many nice things as possible for him so as to avoid his wrath.

* The pranks Jessica plays on Mike brings up an incident in which Mari scared Stacy by hiding under her bed for an inordinately long period of time, and another one in which Stacy scared Mari by hiding a life-sized cutout of Captain Jean-Luc Picard in her shower.
* When they finally get to the cabin, both Stacy and Mari begin suggesting possible controls for the inevitable sex scene.
-->'''Stacy:''' Pull trigger to rub butt-cheeks!
* When the killer/monster throws Jessica's phone through the cabin window just as Mike and Jess are about to get it on, the two speculate that it's going to say one of two things: "I HAVE COME TO SLUT SHAME YOUUUUUUUU!" or "I LIKE THAT YOU CONNECTED ON A DEEP LEVEL, HERE'S YOUR PHONE BACK!!!"

** On a similar note, Stacy also expresses confusion at the number of sex puns being exchanged by Mike and Jessica, only for Mari to confirm this is the case, citing herself and her boyfriend as an example.
-->'''Mari:''' I make sex puns at my boyfriend and he, like, groans at me and then [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext I make the dog high-five me]]. [''both crack up'']
* Latching onto the idea that Wendigoes are the true threat of the game, Mari used the animal skulls decorating the lodge as proof of her theory, noting that ''real'' cow skulls don't look like that - and are secretly Wendigo skulls. [[StatingTheSimpleSolution Stacy counters by suggesting that the game designers just didn't know how to draw cow skulls]]. [[spoiler: It later turns out that Wendigos don't have skulls like that at all.]]
* By now suspecting that Josh is a serial killer in disguise, the two begin panicking as they descend into the lodge's CreepyBasement, and speculate that Josh will be waiting for [[EnsembleDarkHorse Sam]], ominously whispering "[[YouWillBeSpared Only you.

[[spoiler: Doubly amusing is the fact that, due to mistakes made during the big chase in Chapter 4, Jessica really is the first member of the group to get killed off.]]]] Also, when Jessica's re-introduced in Chapter 1, Mari is immediately unnerved by the weird grin on her face during the freeze-frame introduction and declares her to be insane; for added fun, Stacy is annoyed by this because Mari had already gotten unnerved by the [[MemeticMolester skeevy-looking grin]] Chris was wearing in his introduction, and worries that she's going to do this for every character in the game.

** And it happens ''again'' when they discover a totem that predicts Mike [[{{Fingore}} getting his hand caught in a bear trap]].

* Seconds after meeting [[{{Tsundere}} Emily]], the two correctly predict that she's going to get into a fight with Jessica because she was once romantically involved with Mike, Jessica's current boyfriend, and Mike isn't going to do a damn thing about any of the arguments that will ensue... but then Mari theorizes that it's going to end with [[LesYay Jessica and Emily discovering that they've been nurturing crushes on each other all this time]] and [[SlapSlapKiss entering into a committed lesbian relationship]], to Mike's dismay.
** On a similar note, when Matt decides to be diplomatic with Mike rather than antagonizing him, Emily sarcastically asks if the two are gonna make out... and Mari can be heard enthusiastically exclaiming ''"yes!"''
* Stacy's utter bewilderment over Josh's bro-tastic mannerisms, in which she wonders aloud if people actually talk like this - only for Mari to confirm that, yes, there are people who do indeed talk this way. Eventually, Stacy just gets annoyed and grumbles "can you just talk like a human?"

* More than once, the duo's efforts to make jokes to ease the tension are derailed by jumpscares or genuinely creepy discoveries, resulted in some pretty funny reactions. In one case, Mari tries to make light of blood on the edge of the bathroom vanity by claiming that [[PlayerCharacter Thomas]] was trimming his pubes in the skin... only for a close-up shot to reveal that the sink is ''full'' of blood and teeth - prompting both Stacy and Mari to let out ''perfectly-synchronized yells of alarm.''

* The discovery of their first totem does ''not'' go over well with Mari: even before she sees the premonition of Beth Washington's violent death, she declares "[[ThisIsGonnaSuck fuck, we're fucked]]."
** On a related note, the discovery of The Events Of The Past; while messing about with the totems screen in Chapter 1, Mari happens to press the triangle button and is given a look at the two segments of the video they've unlocked so far: a perfectly sedate glimpse of "some dude" and a terrifyingly-edited split-second montage of bloody eyes and teeth while an ominous voice proclaims [[AC: "And driven mad!"]] Again, it's all down to the reaction of the two: Stacy is clearly bewildered and alarmed, while Mari is cracking up at [[MoodWhiplash the sudden change in tone]].
* Stacy "not having the chill," and jumping at every little noise - at one point jumping out of her chair at the unexpected sight of a deer, contrasted by Mari's total lack of reaction. For good measure, this becomes the key reason why Stacy insists that Mari handle the controller, especially when it turns out there are sections in which the player must stay perfectly still '''at all costs.'''
* Mari is halfway through explaining that she and Stacy are going to play ''Until Dawn'' until dawn, when the Mystery Man shows up with a machete in hand, prompting a loud exclamation of "WHAT THE FUCK."

* ''Everything'' about the Giant Demon Babies. For one thing, Stacy and Mari have decided to hide in a wardrobe when one of them shows up, causing horror-struck screams as they realize that they would have gotten caught and killed if they hadn't gone for the wardrobe. Then, not long after they leave the area, another one punches though the wall behind them, prompting more terrified screams as they try to escape; then, [[HopeSpot just as it looks as though they're getting away]], [[JumpScare the ground gives way under Thomas]].
* Soon after, the two of them get scared in quick succession by both their dog ''and'' the CreepyDoll that they were examining, resulting in screams and exasperated yells at AJ.
* Upon finding themselves in an asylum, Mari relates the story of how she was sent to a psyche ward for depression, only for the staff to treat her as if she was an untrustworthy psychopath. As depressing as this is, Stacy manages to brighten up the moment by quipping "[[Film/ANewHope These aren't the crazies you're looking for]]."
** After checking the every observation window on the cell doors so far, [[GenreSavvy Mari warns that they're probably going to find something fucked up in one of them]]. ''Immediately after,'' they find a cell covered in bloody scratches with the words "[[ArcWords MY GOD WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?]]" written on the wall in blood. And they get jumpscared by the eyeless inmate leaping in front of the window.
-->'''Stacy:''' You mean like ''that'' one?!
** In the final section, having ended up in the "Destroyed Dreams" pathway, the two are reduced to near-total silence by the terrifying atmosphere and the stress of being hunted down by [[EvilTwin Nightmare!Thomas]], and eventually have to apologize on the grounds that "we're trying to survive, here!"

[[folder: Heavy Rain]]
* The relentless piss-taking of ''VideoGame/HeavyRain'', ''VideoGame/HeavyRain's'' overall plot especially once [[CloudCuckooLander David Cage]]'s distinctive directorial quirks set in.
** * Early on, Mari notes that Ethan's wife is mourning for Jason even though Ethan took the full brunt of the oncoming car, and Stacy replies that "once you have children, your spouse doesn't matter anymore. [...] He's just a sperm donor at this point."

** Upon seeing Ethan waking up in the rain with an Origami figure in his hand, Mari concludes that he's actually a [[Film/BladeRunner Replicant]].
** The duo's hysterical astonishment over Norman Jayden's [[AugmentedReality ARI]] [[CoolShades glasses]], leading to giggled demands to know precisely when the game is set [[note]]2011[[/note]] and claims that "this is what Google Glass could have been!"
*** Eventually, this leads into a hilarious warning from Mari to avoid dating guys who own a collection of Oakleys sunglasses, citing it as a sure sign of said boyfriend being a complete and total tool. She also recommends that anyone in possession of an Oakleys collection change their ways while there's still time. For good measure, this segues into a skit in which collection owners end up seeing the Lets Play and then hurry off to the Oakley forums (AKA [=OakleyChan=]) to warn the members that someone's cracked the secret code of Masculine Douches.
** In a series-wide RunningGag, Stacy and Mari's growing amusement over the fact that almost ''none'' of the game's characters can correctly pronounce the word "Origami," instead mangling it into "Orrygammy." For good measure, the only character to get it right is Scott Shelby, [[spoiler: who turns out to be the Origami Killer.]]
** The drama of Shaun's disappearance is promptly [[{{Narm}} undermined]] by the slackjawed ThousandYardStare Ethan pulls while suffering a fugue state - and again when he wakes up to find himself just about to be run over by a truck, prompting Stacy to declare "''Heavy Rain:'' A Game In Which You Can Be A Complete Derp."
** [[TokenFemale Madison]]'s [[MsFanservice introduction]] immediately results in a cavalcade of irritated questions over how rich Madison must be if she can heat her [[FriendsRentControl massive loft apartment]] to the point that she can just wander around almost-naked. This leads to further annoyance over the fact that Madison drinks glass-bottled sparkling water - or, as Mari puts it, "she's one of ''those'' people." Later continued at the motel, when Madison arrives on a classic motorbike and Mari comments "I swear to god, if she's a waitress, I'm gonna be pissed."
** The extended "stopped time" hallucination sequence at the train station prompts Mari to conclude that Ethan is, in fact, an [[Franchise/XMen X-Man]].
** The two quickly declare [[HardboiledDetective Scott]] [[NiceGuy Shelby]] to be the only character in the entire game they actually like, later prompting them to theorize that [[AngelUnaware he's actually an angel of some kind]]. Also, they remark on how disappointed they'd be if it turned out that Scott turned out to be the Origami Killer, citing the fact that his hands are too big to make origami figures. [[spoiler: Guess who Scott turns out to be? For good measure, a commenter spoils the reveal for them well in advance, leaving them even more annoyed at the game's dodgy writing.]]
** In a prelude to another extended critique of the game's treatment of Madison, Mari remarks "[[BlatantLies I hate to complain]] - [[ImmediateSelfContradiction actually I don't hate to complain]], I ''love'' to complain..."
** Stacy and Mari ''completely lose it'' during the chase scene when Miroslav Korta [[{{Narm}} starts throwing live chickens at Jayden]], prompting the two of them to hysterically ask why live chickens would be for sale at a grocery store. [[note]] It's actually a farmer's market, but that isn't made clear anywhere except the chapter menu.[[/note]]
** Sometimes, the rather unconventional camera angles in the game cause some particularly hilarious mistakes.
--->'''Mari:''' [''while trying to navigate Scott's apartment''] How do I get to the front door? [''opens a door''] [[NoSenseOfDirection I'm in the bathroom]]! [''everyone cracks up'']
--->'''Stacy:''' HOW DID I GET HERE?!
** After taking note of how the Origami Killer contacts the fathers of the missing kids and gets them to participate in his death traps in the hopes of rescuing them, Stacy and Mari wonder why the killer only contacts the dads... and come to the conclusion that it's because the dads would naturally insist that ThisIsSomethingHesGotToDoHimself and go off on a Creator/JohnWayne-style [[TestosteronePoisoning lone wolf fantasy]]. If the killer sent his letters to the mothers, [[WomenAreWiser they'd go straight to the police]] and the killer would be caught ''immediately.''
** Following at least two scenes of Madison treating Ethan's wounds - [[StrangledByTheRedString and apparently developing a relationship with him]] - after just meeting him a couple of scenes ago, Stacy and Mari come up with the theory that Madison is actually the Origami Killer and using the kidnapping of children in order to hook up with their fathers.
** While genuinely disturbed by the events of the Lizard Trial, Stacy and Mari immediately crack up when they realize that the next clue to Shaun's location was right under the table - meaning that Ethan could have skipped the entire trial if only he'd taken a split-second glance under the table he was sitting at, [[StupidityIsTheOnlyOption which he didn't]].
** At one point, Mari ends up so flummoxed by the [[PlotHole unexplained existence]] of Jayden's ARI glasses and withdrawal-induced hallucinations, she actually starts to wonder if the glasses are completely imaginary and Jayden's hallucinating the whole thing - if only because it makes about as much sense as anything else in the game.
** Part 13. All of it. More specifically, it kicks off with the reveal that, in order to convince Stacy and Mari that ''Heavy Rain'' really is good, [[InsaneTrollLogic fans have decided to spoil the entire story for them]]. As a result, Part 13 is titled "Complaining A Lot," and consists mainly of the two dissecting just about every bit of stupidity they've encountered so far, and pointing out just how badly the game's aged compared to other major releases from 2010 like ''VideoGame/MassEffect2'' and ''VideoGame/Bioshock2''. Why is this funny? ''Because the game seems determined to prove their point'': Mad Jack jumps Jayden before they can find any of the clues that would have normally set off the confrontation with him, [=NPCs=] talk like they've been [[Franchise/MassEffect indoctrinated]], ten-year-old kids talk like thirty-seven-year-olds, a gravedigger remarks that AStormIsComing - ''[[CaptainObvious in the middle of the pouring rain]]'' - and Lauren Winter talks like a malfunctioning robot, prompting laughter and mimicry from Mari.
** Though otherwise deadly serious, Mari's [[ReasonYouSuckSpeech utter rage]] over the "female empowerment scene" of [[DudeNotFunny Madison being forced to strip naked at gunpoint]] before knocking Paco out with a lamp does offer up a few gems.
*** "[[ItMakesSenseInContext We like consenting boobs]]! Is that too much to ask?"
*** Among other things, she points out the double standard that, where Madison has been harassed, assaulted and almost raped throughout the game, none of the male characters have ever been subjected to ''this'' brand of treatment. For example though Ethan was forced to [[spoiler: [[{{Fingore}} slice his finger off]] ]], he didn't have to do so naked with the camera focusing on his asshole or erect penis while a female character laughed creepily in the background.
*** Also, she gets extremely annoyed at the choir of supporters trying to change their minds.
---->Everyone's like, "ugh, you guys missed so much," and I'm like "[[DeadpanSnarker Oh yeah? How many rape scenes did we miss?]]"
*** The follow-up scene, in which Madison torture Paco by crushing his balls with her bare hands... which, as Mari points out, looks as though Madison has reached too far and started fingering his butthole.

*** ** The follow-up scene, in which Madison torture Paco by crushing his balls with her bare hands... which, as Mari points out, looks as though Madison has reached too far and started fingering his butthole.



** The response to the [[FetishRetardant infamous sex scene]]; due to the assorted memes surrounding ''Heavy Rain,'' Stacy and Mari were well aware that there was a terrible sex scene in the game during the previous chapters, and practically rejoice at the sight of it. While cracking over Mari's inability to work the awkward controls, they not only draw attention to the fact that Ethan and Madison are wasting precious time while Ethan's son ''is literally drowning in a gutter,'' but the fact that the wanted fugitive and the renegade journalist [[WhatAnIdiot haven't even bothered to shut their motel room door while they screw!]] And in the aftermath, upon discovering that Ethan's thoughts indicate that he plans to leave while Madison is still asleep, the two just about die laughing.
--->'''Stacy:''' So realistic that you can fuck a girl and then leave before she wakes up! This is real life!

* Their utter bewilderment over the long, ''long'' red corridor leading to the final trial; Stacy compares it to walking through a vagina, while Mari compares it to the ending of ''Film/TwoThousandAndOneASpaceOdyssey'' and they'll end up an alien fetus if they travel all the way to the end.
* Stacy and Mari's growing annoyance over [[PoliceAreUseless the cops]]' - AKA "these assholes" - continuous inability to notice Jayden and the Origami Killer's epic duel to the death ''[[NoPeripheralVision right above their heads]].''
* The CPR scene on Shaun.
-->'''Mari:''' [''thoughtfully''] I wonder if I can fuck this up...
-->'''Stacy:''' Oh ''Mari.''
** For good measure, the game deliberately makes it look like they really ''did'' fuck it up, fooling them for a minute. Also, the two point out that, given that he's been sitting in filthy water and on the verge of drowning for the last few days, [[FridgeHorror Shaun is probably going to die anyway]] - and given all the improperly-treated injuries he's suffered over the course of the game ''plus'' the "poison" he's taken, Ethan isn't long for this world either.
* Madison's "BigDamnHeroes" moment.
-->'''Mari:''' NOW I'M BATMAN, BITCH!
[[/folder]]

* In their first podcast of 2016, Mari and Stacy give VideoGame/TheOrder1886 the dubious honor of "best game if you don't pay attention anything that they're saying and doing and just look at them and [[ShippingGoggles insert a lot of sexual tension]]."
* Mari utterly freaks out after Stacy unwittingly [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_QCcIE1PLs&t=10m24s kills a virtual ballerina in a VR game]].
* After talking seriously about the morality of killing in ''VideoGame/RiseOfTheTombRaider'', they completely abandon it and spend the rest of the game gleefully killing everyone they can and talking about how much fun murder is. Might also be a TakeThat to the idea of MurderSimulators.
** Likewise Stacy's theory that the reason [[spoiler:the Deathless Ones]] never left their city, even though it would have gotten very boring in Kitezh, is that they were all having an orgy.
