      That's what makes Brennan great... there are 0 rolls here as he's being "interrogated", a spell is cast, and the effects are immediately seen(again, no roll to resist the spell).

    Gunnie needs to learn "don't get high on your own supply." That's why pit bosses don't gamble, at least not on the tables they're overseeing.
    Also, for how many episodes now I've been worried at the shocking accuracy of Lou's RP of gambling addiction that I was concerned he might actually have the addiction and puts it in the game because it's become his personality, like how Orion Acaba (formerly of Critrole) literally had a character named after Quaaludes.
    Thankfully, this scene kinda shows he's self-aware enough and he's only playing a character going on self-destruction, and not because he thinks "gambling is cool and losing all your life savings is a small price to pay for the eventual big win you're bound to get, any day now."

    • @scottdick296
      @scottdick296 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I'm pretty sure pit bosses don't gamble in tables they're overseeing because that's completely illegal basically everywhere. For fairly obvious reasons.

    • @Morhek
      @Morhek 2 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      I don't know about gambling addiction specifically, but it's clear that Gunnie has very poor impulse control and jumps into everything without thinking them through. He's very consistent about portraying that part of Gunnie's problems are brought on by his own refusal to slow down and think - whether it be wanting to be a spacer in the first place, dismissing the need for insurance out of hand, buying an expensive cyborg body with All The Trimmings that he can barely afford to keep up on the interest for, deciding to gamble and then CHEAT at gambling and then just fucking running away rather than let himself be thrown out, etc. And now he's opening up a great big temptation on his own ship. The gambling is just part of the bigger problem. And i think it's pretty clear that this isn't Lou doing his own thing, he chose to play a character like this and is enjoying playing them, even with the consequences of it.

    • @romxxii
      @romxxii 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      ​@@Morhek There are studies that there's a clear genetic component to addiction, so it's not just "Gunny has low impulse control." There's a definite need to fill an empty hole inside you. The addiction tries to fill that hole, either with the empty promise of winning big and getting to throw money at all your problems, or in the case of other forms of addiction, the chance to just forget it for a few hours while you game/drink/shoot up/fuck.
      And I think every other character serves as a counterpoint to the idea that Gunny's main problem is impulse control, because he's not the only one with impulse control problems. Slug Skip is quick on the murder. Riva can't lie, whether explicitly or by omission. Marge is hung up on "her roommate/friend". Big Barry Syxx has unresolved issues about Barry Nyne.
      Out of all of them, only Barry got into the gambling with Gunny, and he _immediately_ regrets it like a relatively functional human.

      I don't know anything about actual gambling addictions but from the other seasons of Dimension 20 I can totally see Lou just being a good enough actor to pull this off.
