Go To

  • Simon insisting on Lovely Island being better than Craggy Island even though he kept dying there.
  • Their first goal, owing to their name? Do what Dwarves to best and dig deeply and greedily. Coincidentally, there's an item that lets you teleport to something called "The Deep Dark", which Simon excitedly begins working towards.
  • Simon's impression of Barry Scott.
  • Duncan's attempt to make a golf course cause the server to constantly lag.
  • In "Come O Diggers", Duncan forgets to pay attention to Simon's mission briefing, causing Lewis and Simon to be somewhat frustrated.
    • Duncan keeps arguing that the golf course needs to be a priority, while Lewis and Simon think it needs to be delayed. This results in Duncan stubbornly insisting on keeping it on the list, putting several signs on that Simon trashes anyway, which causes him to later freak out when a golf buggy is not on the list.
    Simon: I'm not taking any of your shit, Jones.
    Lewis: So, we can make a golf buggy as well, Duncan. Out of...
    Duncan and Lewis: A moon buggy!
    Lewis: We don't have...
    Simon: Hang on, hang on! We don't have... hang on! (hushes the others)
    Lewis: What?
    Lewis: (laughing) Oh, I'm sorry, okay, good. Come with me, so Simon, you know our goal is to...
    Simon: (without warning, kills Duncan with the Atomic Disasembler in a single hit)
    Duncan: OH GOD!
    Lewis: (clearly surprised) WOW!
  • In Episode 19, titled "Duncan Can't Breathe," Duncan begins to run out of air on the Moon. His absolute panic at his slowly depleting oxygen is hilarious, and his voice gets increasingly hysterical as it gets lower.
    • Even further, when Duncan only has about 30 seconds of air left, Lewis physically runs into Duncan's office to try and find a solution.
  • Episode 20, when Lewis and Duncan are preparing to launch a pair of rockets and return to Earth.
    Lewis: I don't want to ride the 66% fueled, full one.
    Duncan: Now look, leaving Earth takes the most fuel, getting back there is basically fuel-free.
    Lewis: (Beat) You sure?
    Duncan: Yeah, I play Kerbal Space Program. Getting out of the atmosphere, that's where all the fuel goes.
    Simon: The worry is, I've seen you play Kerbal Space Program. And, um...
    Duncan: Hey, I'm good at it, man.
    Simon: Yeah, but, how many little Kerbals lost their lives?
    Simon: Hundreds?
    Duncan: Hundreds. You ready to go, Lewis?
    Lewis: Uh...
  • In Episode 21, titled "Sparkle Farts", Duncan randomly seems to fart sparkles for whatever reason.
  • In Episode 23, titled "Dirty Business", Sips arrives on the island and begins being a jerk to the guys. Simon eventually has enough and launches into a massive rant about Sips, imitating him all the while.
  • A lot of Episode 33.
    • Simon tries to take off and join Duncan in space with an unfueled rocket, which promptly disappears into nothingness after failing to launch. He angry-cheerfully tries to scoop out a handful of diamonds and assemble it in a rocket shape to build a replacement. Lewis notes that they just launched a rocket right next to their nuclear reactor, and their extreme good fortune it didn't explode and wipe out everything they've built.
    • Simon learns nothing.
    Lewis: Don't jump in it yet. (as Simon jumps in it) Okay, uh... (rocket starts to shake) SIMON! What is wrong with you?! Can you not wait ten fucking seconds for us to-
    Simon: LOOK, IT'S LIKE TWENTY SECONDS TO FILL IT WITH FUEL!
    Lewis: I've only got sludge, I've only got sludge, I haven't enough oil-
    Simon: It's got 26% fuel in, it's fine. I'll see ya later, shitlords. (takes off)
    Lewis: Bye!
    Simon: Bye! My planet needs me!
    Lewis: ...Did that actually work? Fuck-ing hell. Wow. (Simon flies sideways) Where are you going, it's not that way!
    Simon: I'm going to button moon.
    Lewis: Space is up, not right!
    Simon: Shit, okay. Sorry!
    Lewis: For god's sakes... I think he's coming to you, Duncan, you'd better give him an oxygen tank as soon as he arrives there, otherwise he's gonna suffocate to death.
    Simon: Alright, get ready for me, Duncan, roll out the red carpet, son! Daddy's coming home!
    Duncan: Uh...
    Simon: Get me pipe and slippers ready! (Beat) Was that a bit creepy?
    Duncan: Little bit.
    Simon: (engines stop, gravity ensues) Ohhh fuck.
    Duncan: What?
    Lewis: What's happened?
    Simon: I've run out of fuel! (BOOM)
    (several seconds of Simon laughing hysterically)
    Lewis: (also laughing) Well, I don't want to say "I told you so," but, I told you so. Why did you go right instead of going straight up?! You knew you didn't have a lot of fuel! We are the worst, like, we are the worst fucking players at this game.
    Lewis: We'll cut that.
    Simon: What'd'you mean "we'll cut that?" Fuck you! That was fantastic!
    Lewis: That was the worst advert-
    Simon: WE NEED THE MONEY, LEWIS!
    Duncan: (snickering) ...to buy a new rocket.
  • Episode 36 Duncan and Simon are talking about how someone's using an ender chest with the same code as them and Duncan, in his haste to check to see what code Simon's has, runs right into the electric fence, dying instantly. Lewis immediately regrets adding them back in the prior Extras section.
  • In Episode 37, Simon and Lewis give Duncan a What the Hell, Hero? moment after he kills a Light Mage.
    • Duncan runs repeatedly into the electric fence, and when he blasts off he barely misses Simon's redstone torus.
  • Lewis and the caterpillar in his broccoli story.
  • Duncan's... erm, trouble with his clones in episode 61.
