The team talk about Chile and a socialist scheme to bring the computer revolution decades early.
Article of Conversation: Project Cybersyn
Tropes:
- Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!: Tom and the rest of the panel get sidetracked by a theoretical takeover from robot pigeons, for a good two minutes, before Tom tries to get everyone else back onto the topic of Project Cybersyn.
- Comically Missing the Point: Chris misinterprets "Coup D'état" with "Croupe D'état"; miniature classy Hors d'oeuvre's, and it leads into a tangent on food decorated like a military coup.
- Happy Birthday to You!: Chris and Gary sing a rather dark one for Chile:Chris: Happy birthday to you...Gary: Here's a military coup*everyone laughs*Gary: You've 5 minutes to leave... and your family too!MYSTERY BISCUITS
- The Coup: Cybersyn was used for the early parts of The '70s in Chile; a few jokes in the show revolved around this.
- Glasses Pull: Tom mimes the action when talking about roboticised pigeons.
