Animal Noises Too

1. Markiplier's Accidental Double Batch of Bread

Timestamp: 00:02:36 to 00:06:40

Markiplier recounts baking homemade bread from scratch because his household was out of loaves for Nutella toast. After intending to halve an online recipe, he accidentally poured in the full two cups of boiled high-protein milk, forcing him to scale the dry ingredients back up. Despite needing slightly more proofing time in his heated oven drawer, both loaves baked successfully.

Significance (Low): Highlights how simple pantry staples can yield impressive homemade results even when measurement mistakes force mid-recipe adjustments.

2. Bob's Underground College Grilled Cheese Empire

Timestamp: 00:06:44 to 00:10:35

Bob reveals he managed a weekly grilled cheese fundraiser for his music fraternity, Symphonia, at CCM for two years. He upgraded the casual stand by keeping accounting ledgers, buying bulk ingredients from Kroger, and offering gourmet cheese upgrades and 50-cent tomato soup add-ons. When a new administrator banned them from the main atrium, Bob relocated the griddles to a back hallway to keep the operation running.

Significance (Medium): Demonstrates how basic bookkeeping and menu tiering can turn a casual student fundraiser into a resilient, profitable campus fixture.

3. Wade Praises Daredevil and Laments Stormy Weather

Timestamp: 00:10:36 to 00:12:15

Asked to entertain the host, Wade shares that he recently binged the new Daredevil series after reading a recap of the original show, marking his first television binge in about two years. He then complains that sunny weekday weather in Cincinnati gave way to heavy weekend thunderstorms, strong winds, and mystery animal droppings across his yard. The banter wraps up as Wade jokes about yelling at clouds from his chair.

Significance (Low): Establishes the relatable contrast between enjoying indoor streaming entertainment and having weekend outdoor plans ruined by unpredictable Midwest weather.

4. Koala Callback and Tasmanian Devil Screeches

Timestamp: 00:12:48 to 00:18:58

Markiplier launches the sequel animal noise game by playing a guttural grunt that Bob initially guesses is a pug and Wade guesses is a boar. After Markiplier reveals it was a repeat from their first episode, Bob correctly identifies the koala, prompting Markiplier to waive the vocal imitation to spare their throats. In the next round, both contestants fail to identify a screeching Tasmanian devil, though Wade wins the imitation point for his snorting scream.

Significance (Medium): Sets the competitive rules for the episode, introducing video verification clips and rewarding physical vocal commitment even when guesses fail.

5. Bob Scrapes a 3D-Printed Koozie for Cassowary Bass

Timestamp: 00:18:58 to 00:23:30

Markiplier plays a deep, rhythmic rumbling sound that Bob guesses is a macaque and Wade guesses is a slender-snouted crocodile or gharial. Markiplier reveals the terrifying video of a cassowary booming in the woods. Allowed to use props, Bob earns the imitation point by scraping a 3D-printed cup koozie hard across his desk, delaminating its plastic layers while Wade laughs through his vocal attempt.

Significance (Medium): Shows how creative foley prop work can outperform vocal cords when mimicking low-frequency avian vibrations.

6. Sweeping the Loon Round and Beating Chair Armrests

Timestamp: 00:23:31 to 00:29:20

Bob correctly identifies the haunting call of a loon and sweeps the round by using his hands to acoustically match its wavering pitch, admitting he secretly practiced animal noises after failing in the prior episode. Next, Markiplier plays a rapid clacking sound resembling gunfire that neither contestant names, though Bob describes a large bird before Markiplier reveals the shoebill. Rather than risking broken teeth, Wade wins the shoebill imitation point by violently slamming his chair armrests.

Significance (High): Illustrates the escalating physical comedy of the contest as both hosts resort to acoustic hand tricks and furniture abuse to secure points.

7. Marmot Taxonomy and Proboscis Monkey Flopping

Timestamp: 00:29:20 to 00:36:25

Bob guesses a high-pitched alarm whistle belongs to a prairie dog, prompting Markiplier to debate awarding a point when the video reveals a closely related marmot. After looking up how both belong to the Sciuridae family under different genera, neither host can hit the shrill pitch to earn the mimicry point. In the following round, neither identifies a honking proboscis monkey, leading Bob to burp into his microphone for the audio point while Wade earns a half-point for flopping under his desk.

Significance (High): Introduces a crucial half-point into the scoreboard that later prevents any possibility of a tie game.

8. Desert Rain Frog Squeaks and Joker-Faced Lemurs

Timestamp: 00:36:25 to 00:41:19

Markiplier plays a high-pitched squeak that Wade jokes is a Skyline Chili date mishap before guessing a baby blue jay, while Bob guesses a baby meerkat. Markiplier reveals an angry, spherical desert rain frog, and Wade wins the imitation point while Bob accidentally mutes his microphone during his best squeak. Next, after both miss a chattering ring-tailed lemur whose facial markings resemble the Joker, Bob wins the vocal mimicry point by hitting the exact high pitch.

Significance (Medium): Keeps the contest tight as Wade and Bob trade imitation points on high-pitched amphibian and primate calls.

9. Rapid-Fire Finale and Bob's 10-Point Victory

Timestamp: 00:41:20 to 00:52:51

For the final round, Markiplier plays four animal sounds in sequence: Wade correctly identifies the laughing kookaburra, while both miss the kiwi, willow ptarmigan, and roaring sea lion. Wade wins the final imitation point for his sea lion roar, bringing the base score to 9 for Bob and 7.5 for Wade. After an unsuccessful 'Unfair' coin flip by Markiplier and four wheel spins that award one point to Bob and two to the viewers, Bob wins the episode with 10 points.

Significance (High): Concludes the competition, cementing Bob as the next episode's host while Wade angrily snacks on chocolate mushrooms in defeat.
