Episode 43 opens in the prison halls of Death Row, with Scoti_Garbidis walking ahead down a torch-lit corridor. The deaths sidebar reads Scoti_Garbidis 60 and BasketMC 45. The hallway ahead has mobs on both sides, and the plan is simple: "So I guess we just have to block out both sides." The mobs seem busy with each other, and one of them spots the reason: "Oh, there's actually a spawner in there."
Burnt to a crisp
Getting through the hallway means getting hit by whatever is being thrown. "They were hitting me with poison and like anti-poison." One of them drinks "a regeneration potion," and Basket digs into the wall with a stone pickaxe to find a way around: "If we go up and over, maybe."
It does not go to plan. Chat reads "Scoti_Garbidis was burnt to a crisp whilst fighting Undead Warden (Ranged)," and the sidebar ticks to 61. The complaint comes right after: "Let me know next time I'm dead."
A special guy
Basket pushes on into a room of iron bars, stone stairs and vines. Chat shows "You can only sleep at night." Then: "There's a special guy here. Butcher." A zombie villager in an orange apron appears among the cells with a name tag reading Boltoc the Butcher.
"Oh, there's a boss here. He takes a beating." The fight turns to fire fast. "Oh, he just teleported somewhere else." Flames fill the screen, and chat repeats the earlier line: "Scoti_Garbidis was burnt to a crisp whilst fighting Undead Warden (Ranged)." The sidebar moves to 62, and chat shows "Scoti_Garbidis Teleporting to: Intersection 1." The hope for the boss's loot is quoted, not shown: "He drops at least bottles of enchanting."
Torches and lost gear
Scoti's gear is still back where Scoti died. "Could you get my stuff?" The answer: "I'm trying to kill the guys by your stuff." Later a name tag reading Undead Warden (Melee) passes overhead in a dark cell, followed by an Undead Prisoner behind the bars. The plan for the rest: "I'm just gonna charge in there, run around and drop torches."
Not all of it survives. One of them reports "I got a respiration book and a fire protection book and an iron sword," but a pile of dropped items does not last: "I think it all just despawned." Once the room is lit: "I think this area is secure."
Down the sewer
A side passage looks like "someone tried to escape through the sewers." The usual chest check follows, "one, two, three," and the prize is "a fishing rod and fish." On the wall, a row of signs gives directions: "These sewers lead to Intersection II. I recommend you come back here after getting all the wool from Intersection I."
Right beside it is a checkpoint. Chat shows "Teleporting to: The Nexus," and the episode ends with both of them standing on the checkered floor there. No wool goes on the monument this time, so the count stays at three wools of 16 and two emerald blocks of 16. Next time, the plan is to "butcher the butcher." The sidebar ends at Scoti_Garbidis 62 and BasketMC 45.
