Synopsis
Graham becomes seriously ill and is unable to attend the M15 prerelease. When Cam dominates and wins a pile of packs, Kathleen suggests that they have Graham open four of them and play a mini sealed game against Cam to make up for missing the actual event. However, Graham has still lost his voice. He enlists multiple crew members to help him, but to no avail - Kathleen attempts to backseat-pilot his deck, James acts as if he were doing event coverage and begins revealing what Graham has in his hand, Beej, not knowing how to play Magic, cannot properly narrate Graham's behavior Alex mishears everything Graham tries to have him say. He relegates them to a corner labelled "unhelpful jerks".
Trivia
- Though this is Beej's first speaking appearance in Friday Nights, this is not his first overall appearance; he can be seen in the background at the Parsonage in The Return.
- The "Unhelpful Jerks" sign is one of the many script-specific set dressings from various videos that have remained up after shooting; it can be seen most prominently in the Kickstarter "Tennis Balls" video, which was shot much later in the year.
