Last time ended with a chest spotted on an island out in the lake. This one starts there. The deaths sidebar reads Scoti_Garbidis 35 and BasketMC 31.
A chest for the next level
Basket sets down a chest on the near island first, with a Splash Potion of Healing still in Basket's inventory. The plan, in their words: "I'll drop this chest right here," so the things they need for the next area don't go out over the water. Then the read on the lake: "a skeleton spawner in the water and then at least two creeper spawners." The island chest "might just be a regular loot chest," but "I want to try and get as many emeralds as we can before we get to next level."
The spawner in the water
It goes wrong fast. "I'm in the water and I'm dead," and at about 3:20 chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was shot by Skeleton." The sidebar ticks to 36. "Every episode starts with me making another bow and losing gear," one of them says. Basket keeps shooting, but the skeletons come faster than they drop. "Can't believe this one skeleton spawner in the water is too much for us to handle."
Two more trips back
Around 10:40 it's Basket's turn: chat reads "BasketMC was blown up by Creeper," and Basket wakes up in the stone base and digs food out of the big chest. "You had a lot of gear on you, didn't you?" A minute later chat adds "Scoti_Garbidis was shot by Skeleton" again. "I ruin everything." Then: "Let's play this on hard, he said. It'll be fun, he said."
Picking it all back up
Back at the water, the gear is scattered across the bottom. "Wow, my stuff is everywhere." Some of it is gone for good: "I had the cool power one bow," and now "this is a crappy bow." One of them does fish out something useful: "I just picked up a potion of swiftness."
The island chest
This time it works. Basket digs out a spawner with the Golden Pickaxe, and they reach the chest sitting on a stone pedestal on the island. It's packed with cobwebs, and an emerald ends up in Basket's inventory. "Emerald, grab it." "All right, let's get the heck out of here."
Counting emeralds
On the way home: "We need nine emeralds?" "Yeah, I believe we need nine." At a chest on the way, one of them spots a payoff: "Hey, there's the stake you promised me." Back at base, under a sign that says "Set spawnpoint," Basket sorts a chest holding two white wool, emeralds, slimeballs and iron ingots. "We've had the wool for a while," one of them says, and later: "Another iron ingot."
Three deaths this episode, two of them Scoti's. The sidebar goes from Scoti_Garbidis 35 and BasketMC 31 to Scoti_Garbidis 37 and BasketMC 32. No wool is placed and the monument isn't shown, so wools stay at 0 of 16 and emerald blocks at 0 of 16.
