Synopsis
Graham, Kathleen, Paul, and Beej realize that the weekly sketches were the primary source of income, and wonder vaguely how to rectify the lack of funds. Kathleen tells Paul that she is worried about Graham, claiming that he spends most of the day sleeping and hasn't yet found anything to do with the free time opened up by the sketches. Paul suggests that Kathleen help him find a new pastime. Kathleen attempts to research hobbies for Graham but comes up empty-handed, until James points out that Graham quite likes video games, which Kathleen realizes would make a fine hobby for him. However, when she suggests it to him, she realizes that Graham actually has been playing more video games already, and that the perceived oversleeping was actually a change in his sleep schedule so that he would be online when his Destiny-playing friends were.
Cam and Alex realize that the schedule in the streaming office does not supply either of them with enough time to satisfy their Bloodborne fix. They begin to frantically search for other ways of acquiring a PS4. Hearing that Beej has one, they storm his house only to find that it was actually a PS3. They attempt to work out a plan to buy one jointly, but struggle to think of where to store it. They call Graham and ask where all the PS4s from Four PS4s went; he replies that one of them is now in the streaming office, one is his personal console, and the other two were renderings. Though he refuses to allow them to use his PS4 when he's not playing Destiny, their eventual solution is to sneak into his apartment while he and Kathleen are asleep.
Trivia
- Production error - when Alex is talking to Graham on the phone, the screen on Alex' phone shows that he is not actually calling anyone; the movements of his face can be seen triggering the touchscreen.
