Sam's shitty puns about Beauregard's name, a compilation (some of those are from E54 as well) :

Bonus, Marisha's look at that last one, since Thoreau is Beau's father's name and a weird concidence happened there :

(laura) i like that you scout ahead and you can't see shit. (sam) yeah, it's my one weakness.

(nott) fjord, why did you kill me? (fjord) nott? nott?? take my spurs, but not my goblin girl! cry out, nott! cry out!

(sam) we're having three different encounters here. i'm on a different map. you're at butchery class. (marisha) fjord's having a mental breakdown.

(caleb) fjord, nott wants you to know that she's dead, that you killed her.

(sam/nott) i took all my perception points and put them into drinking!

(matt) your dick sense does not tell you that these are phallic in design in any way.

(caleb) the rest of the cat is in my heart. (jester) so you've got a big heart.

(succubus) light them up, pretty.

(laura) oh no, nugget's dead. (sam) hey, more food for the 'bounder.

(liam) i'm living out my fantasies of killing all of you. for four years i've been waiting. i've been waiting.

(laura) my things are wisdom saves and caleb's wisdom is super high. (sam) i assume his intelligence is super high, too. (travis) yeah, well, his jaw save isn't super high. knock that fucker out.

(matt) that's my bad. i looked at the wrong thing. fjord, take that back, since you didn't really do anything, that's fine.

Nein Again music for Episode 55: Duplicity under the cut! This had a new playlist for the boss fight, so it took a bit. 56 should be up a little later this week.

At about 12:10, Matt switches to Winds of Vol'dun from World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth for the recap.

At 16:50, Matt switches to the Whispers of the Old Gods Theme from Hearthstone. I've timestamped it in a compilation below. This is a remix of Yogg-Saron's theme from WoW: Wrath of the Lich King.

At about 21:45, Heart of Sethraliss begins as the players roll initiative.

At 25:50, the PvP Mix (2-4) from World of Warcraft plays as Beau takes her turn. I've timestamped PvP 2 below.

From there, those two sets repeat throughout the combat. Heart of Sethraliss repeated at 37:15.

At about 43:45, Matt switches to Cave from Diablo II once combat ends and Nott runs off alone.

At 1:03:30, Matt starts up the PvP Mix again after he has Caleb throw a fireball at the party. Heart of Sethralis replays at 1:22:00 when Fjord uses Control Water to try to take out the Wall of Fire. These continue in a shuffle through the break, with Heart of Sethraliss replaying at 1:36:50.

At 2:16:25, Matt changes to a different combat playlist once Jester takes the first attack in the boss fight. I'm pretty confident the first song is from Diablo because of the vocals and guitar, but I'm still hunting for it.

At 2:20:30, Enmity from WoW: Battle for Azeroth plays as Caleb takes his turn. This is the song with chanting and military-like brass.

At 2:26:30 or so, Xaxas from World of Warcraft: Cataclysm plays as Fjord takes his turn. This is the soundtrack version of the trailer for the Cataclysm expansion. Some trivia: I'm 100% sure the final boss (Deathwing AKA Xaxas) was a key inspiration for Thordak the Cinder King in campaign 1.

At 2:28:45, the music that sounds like Phantom of the Opera at the start of Yasha's turn is actually Waycrest's Curse from WoW: Battle for Azeroth.

At about 2:31:55, Before the Storm from WoW: Battle for Azeroth plays as Nott takes her turn. This is a very long soundtrack-only song that samples from numerous key themes of the expansion, so you'll hear melodies from a handful of the earlier listed songs and a few Matt didn't include in the playlist.

At 2:45:50, What Makes Us Strong from WoW: Battle for Azeroth plays as Beau stuns the minotaur fiend. Like Xaxas, this is the soundtrack version of the trailer for the Battle for Azeroth expansion. A sample also featured in Before the Storm.

At 2:50:10 or so, Before the Storm replays Nott decides to shoot at the stunned minotaur.

At 3:05:30, Waycrest's Curse replays as Caleb gets knocked out by lightning.

At 3:08:40 or so, What Makes Us Strong replays as Caduceus gets out of dodge.

At 3:13:05, Enmity repeats as the demon-charmed Yasha makes one strike at Caleb and then chases Caduceus.

At 3:21:45, Xaxas repeats as Caduceus tries to command Yasha to flee.

At about 3:28:00, What Makes Us Strong repeats as Fjord attacks the minotaur.

At 3:35:05, Waycrest's Curse repeats as Taliesin reminds Matt that he stabilizes because of the Periapt of Wound Healing.

At 3:38:25, Enmity repeats as Nott tries an unarmed strike and fails, then Caleb fails a death save.

At 3:44:20, Xaxas repeats as Yasha takes her first turn after escaping the charm.

At about 3:46:30, Before the Storm repeats as Jester misses with a guiding bolt instead of healing anyone.

At 4:01:45, Xaxas repeats as Sam and Matt work out whether Nott would have sneak attack on the incubus through the realization that the explosive arrow would kill Caduceus.

At about 4:04:40, Matt switches to Val'Sharah from WoW: Legion as Jester revivifies Caduceus. Funnily enough, Matt says, "and the breeze blew east," during Caduceus's vision as the second half of the song plays, and the first half of this song was split off as Winds Out of the East.

At about 4:08:00, Time and Tide from WoW: Battle for Azeroth plays as the Nein react to their wounds and begin looting.

I wasn't able to make out the music for the rest of the episode, so that's all for this week!

Caleb casts Maximilian's Earthen Grasp.

Jester: Like, is the rest of the cat in the rock? Where is it?

Caleb: The rest of the cat is in my heart.

Jester: So you’ve got a big heart.

Caleb: sighs and slumps with a mixture of amusement and sadness, shaking his head slightly

I know they’re actors by trade, but goddamn I love how Liam plays Caleb
