What happens

- 00:01:38 Recap by Aabria: the four spent the night at the Knave's Navel in Vertic Alley, took the train, and now stand before Gowpenny Academy of the Arcane Arts, a dark stone castle on a hill, with "hundreds of students" and a 200-yard walk to the castle — 00:01:38–00:03:09
- 00:03:09 Dream is in awe; Evan says he checked in on Digby, apologises for losing it, and the others say Digby deserved it — 00:03:09–00:04:07
- 00:04:21 Phone reception rolls back and forth; Dream rolls Brains (DC 8, with the new "common fucking sense" die, 7 and burns an Adversity token) and traces a sigil: full bars, a hotspot for all; Evan shows his gas station phone with six saved hotlink numbers; Dream traces the sigil on the others' phones too — 00:04:25–00:07:35
- 00:07:35 Eleven-year-old children ask what they are doing; Jammer calls the four of them "the muggles"; a child says "You can't say that." and runs to tell; Jammer chases him (opposed Flight vs a d8 child's 6), grabs him, and scares him into silence by being an American; Jammer rug-burns the back of the child's neck — 00:07:49–00:10:07
- 00:10:23 Entering the Great Hall in black first-year robes; Headmistress Philtrum welcomes everyone and announces the house selection; calls the four the first foreign exchange students who do not possess firearms — 00:10:23–00:13:18
- 00:13:31 The confirmation dais is activated; Philtrum explains the four houses: Hercinil, Aqrabus, Messanteu, Chimeron — 00:13:31–00:16:33
- 00:16:33 Evan objects that sorting by traits is "tracking"; the four keep heckling; a child leaves the dais crying in green robes; Philtrum says that who you are at age eleven is who you will be for life; Jammer asks whether one can pick no house — 00:16:33–00:20:08
- 00:20:08 Philtrum invites them to leave if they disagree; they decide to stay and change the system from inside — 00:20:08–00:20:31
- 00:21:00 Dream steps onto the dais first (Brains DC 6, rolls exactly 6): she sees the first-year breakdown (about 10% red, 10% green, 15% blue, 65% Chimeron); the dais speaks in her head and is surprised she is 17; it says she could fail out of Messanteu into Chimeron; Philtrum interrupts, puts all four in Chimeron — 00:21:14–00:25:52
- 00:25:52 The four decide to embrace Chimeron ("goat house"); a green-robed student speaks urgently to teachers and points at Evan; their robes turn mustard yellow; Chimeron applauds politely — 00:25:52–00:28:33
- 00:28:33 Coggle (twin of Hoggle) explains the houses and that one can fail out of the smart house only; Dream's phone alarms him (he tells her to hide it) and he leads them off to the food — 00:29:08–00:31:42
- 00:31:42 Digby (sunburned) stares at Evan; after Jammer makes goat horns he tells Jammer "You're supposed to be with us." — 00:32:17; Jammer answers "no, I'm with us." and walks over (Evan: "I'm gonna let Jammer go." — 00:32:37) and is offered a place on the scuppers team; Jammer tells Digby to suck it; Fergus catches an eye; talk of wizard sex ed and spells — 00:31:42–00:35:17
- 00:35:17 Coggle leads them through the halls; Jammer's Brains roll (DC 7, d4 exploded) clocks the path to a spot under the Great Hall; a portrait swings open onto the Chimeron common room — 00:35:17–00:38:07
- 00:38:07 Ordering from "the kitchen" by drawing on the table with a wand: shepherd's pie; Jammer's McRib (Charm DC 10, 2) fails; the Oggles' Rib Deluxe attempt (Charm DC 5, "That's a 7") gives ribs on bread; Evan's note to the kitchen (Dream's Charm DC 8, 8) and a hamburger order (Charm DC 7, 10) work — 00:38:07–00:46:17
- 00:43:18 Dream sees a glittering pink diamond core in her wand; she swaps wands with Sam, whose wand conforms the moment they swap — 00:43:18–00:44:12
- 00:47:47 Jammer shows Hoggle emojis on his phone; Hoggle calls Anamica; Sam presents her mukbang; the Chimeron students place orders; Sam's Charm roll (DC 13, 18) sets threads from first years to her — 00:48:00–00:52:25
- 00:52:43 A first year asks to touch Sam's hair; Dream objects; the chewing of cucumbers gets "upsettingly loud"; Evan says he could take over the school; three second years take notes — 00:52:43–00:55:07
- 00:55:07 Peter (age 12) offers Evan a hug; says rumor holds Evan "sent Digby to hell"; Evan answers about hell and Peter leaves upset; Evan says he would like his legend to be that he was "okay" — 00:55:52–01:00:55
- 01:00:56 Next morning in a coed bunk hall, Dr. Norman Boodle, head of their house and History of Magic professor, hands out schedules; first class potions in an hour and a half — 01:00:56–01:02:46
- 01:03:28 Boodle answers the gym and English questions (none), lists classes, gives demerits for "muggle", teaches them a removal spell for dirt (Flight DC 3 with Magic die; all take half) — 01:03:28–01:09:10
- 01:10:57 Dream's wand reaches its final form: bright pink with fluttery ribbons; Theodore honks a horn — 01:10:57–01:13:05
- 01:13:24 Jammer tries to summon weights (Brains DC 16, total 5): an iron spike bursts through the floor; the others make Flight DC 10; Evan pushes Sam and Dream aside and is impaled through the thigh; a blood cobra emerges from the wound — 01:13:46–01:17:25
- 01:17:25 Sam talks the blood cobra back into Evan (Charm DC 10, took half); Dream heals the wound with fire (Brains DC 14, she makes it) — 01:17:44–01:20:47
- 01:20:58 Boodle appears, bans magic before classes, and tells Jammer to meet him with Dream after school; Evan says the snake normally has to be eaten to go back in; Evan bursts into tears and runs from the room — 01:20:58–01:23:07
- 01:23:13 Potions class with Hercinil: the only open table is at the front; Professor Viniscus is the cauldron; the task is a potion of minor healing; Dream asks her phone's assistant to convert milliliters and a "dark and gravely" voice answers; Evan recognises it; his Brains DC 8 roll is 4 — 01:23:22–01:32:50
- 01:33:24 Lemli (a mermaid, goat house) helps with ingredients; collaborative Brains roll to 25 is exceeded; Jammer drinks the potion and gets a "fire inside"; Evan's leg wound is healed by it — 01:33:24–01:43:28
- 01:43:42 Viniscus accepts the potion scraping and lets Jammer borrow a potion; Dream talks about "nuclear warhead"; Viniscus is offended ("I'm a fucking cauldron"); Jammer checks the Hercinil trio's potion (Grit DC 8, 7+1); Tallulah insults Evan — 01:43:42–01:51:31
- 01:51:32 The Frunthwinkle, the natura professor, greets them with branches; Sam's Brains DC 6 roll (3) fails to find the magic; Sam casts (Grit DC 8, 10) to double the branch; Sam's wand finishes: a chrome mirror — 01:52:41–01:59:52
- 02:01:12 Khanh Nguyen (named Cleopatra St. Oppolie at school, Hercinil) speaks with them; Evan's Brains opposed to Dream's/Sam's Charm; a combined Charm roll to 25 changes her mood; she teaches them a paper-airplane message spell (Charm DC 3) — 02:01:12–02:10:27
