Right. Timestamps under the cut because fuck it I got some time:
1:18 - a shot of Phil's snotty tissue bin is not something I needed in life.
1:33 - 'Danny'
1:51 - so he took Phil's phone out all day to film on lol. If that doesn't scream trust, I don't know what does
2:15 - shots like this, in confined spaces, really show how tall he is. Slobber.
3:05 - 'this is gonna be an attractive video' *inserts Walter White You're God Damn Right meme*
4:17 - the way he says 'a fucking pokemon' really reminded me of when he says 'fucking Nosepass' in that OG vid of him and Phil playing Sonic in like 2010. Strangely discussing pokemon both times.
4:33 - 'does your queen care about you as much as you care about her?' ... perhaps the closest thing we'll get to a political statement from Dan :lol:
4:54 - that side profile. Fuck my mind.
5:06 - I love the way swearing just rolls off Dan's tongue. I consider swearing an art form and his casual swearing is top drawer.
5:15 - hairy leg. Nice.
6:15 - 'do much people watch youtube in Hong Kong' I really, really hope that was a joke. Like. Please.
6:41 - that noise of desperate frustration is brilliant
6:46 - that passing 'put a shirt on' had me fucked up, I replayed it like 6 times :lol:
7:08 - good boyfriending, caring with just the right amount of ribbing. A+
7:28 - name a few of them Danny, I dares ya 8-)
8:42 - 'should I use an ultra ball' ... did anyone else feel like normally that would have been Phil's line with the silly voice lolz
11:15 - that's just soundbite fodder and don't they know it

And finally, look at the moment they used for the annotation of the Impossible Quiz vid. They know they're cute I hate them.
I wonder how biology can explain the physical pain you feel in your chest when all you want to do is talk shit on IDB

I laughed quite a bit. Lots of Dan-sass.
At 10:55 you can see it at the foot of the bed

Anyone know what hotel they stayed at? (Assuming that's allowed to be said because they're no longer in HK?) I would love to see how close the beds are normally :sideeye: (From the video it seems like they didn't move the beds at all, but I can dream.)

Also - was Dan filming with Phil's phone?

Im with you bluebox-way. The way those reading lights are positioned and the suspect way that phils bed weirdly overshoots the headrest by a few inches (if Dan's is also then that makes up the space between) how many hotel rooms have you seen that happen? Not to mention, the lack of a second duvet. goodlord....i think i have entered the "yup, they are" area of the phandom again. I was starting to doubt i would return there. Been in the friend zone for a while.

After going through multiple tabs on Trip Advisor, I'd say the room matches The Peninsula hotel.

i did not expect another pokémon go video so soon but i'm definitely not complaining!

i though it was great, it might even be my favorite one so far. i actually laughed out loud a few times and the parts at the hotel were really cute tbh.
also i loved the hair. :D

and there were so many great parts but lmao the "NOT THE BIRD I'M LOOKING FOR" parts

Yeah seems legit. The hotel website literally gives you floor plans of the rooms doing the Lord's work on our behalf

I'd like to add : 9.34 : the way Dan says Farfetch'd is pretty .... monster-y (?) and it made me laugh

You're right. But if you look at the pics on the site that bed is within the bounds of the single headrest and there is a space between it and the nightstand. Which there always is, so the maids can change the beds faster.... ;)

It was phils cough medicine and there was a thing that i believe is ointment for rash but there was something else there.

In my opinion, it's an extremely crammed room for it to be a 5-stars hotel

Yep, thanks so much!

It seems to me like they got the "Grand Deluxe Harbour View Room"?
Image
It doesn't look like it from the photo the hotel shows (http://hongkong.peninsula.com/en/~/medi ... shx?mw=952) but it seems like it from the floor plan.
They only offer one floor plan though, they don't show it with the twin beds :roll:

Bitchy, whiny, hobbit!Dan. I like. Embrace the curls!! Look at PJ and Anthony.

Dan, I live in Asia and still don't have that Pokemon. I think its fair that you didn't catch one. I am in HK but I didn't even see you. Jk should have asked that as a bday gift

Bed: How did they even sleep on those?!! Even if they pushed those beds together, they needed to be cuddling af to fit. They're too tall for those beds.

Medicine: I wonder how he asked for those medicines. I tried buying from those shops before but gave up coz most vendors didn't speak in English. He should have bought the medicines without the English label. It will burn as hell but it will work in minutes.

There is an appropriate in-between, between a white t-shirt that gets see-through and a satanist sweater-dress that goes to your knees. Patterned t-shirts are the solutions Dan, for exemple the handkerchief shirt would have been perfect. (Still I think Dan has a good body heat regulation because he really didn't sweat that much considering the weather and what he was wearing).
Agree. No sense whatsoever but I sort of admire his dedication the fact that he didn't faint. If I wore what he wore in that video in that heat I'd be gone within minutes.

Forgot who of you beautiful people called Dan's behaviour in this video diva-like but I think it's a spot on phrase. And for the most part I loved it. He was amusing. But 6:46 actually irritated me a little bit... it's 30 degrees, don't be so judgey Dan! Not everybody has superpowers and can wear big black jumpers in this weather.
7:28: your reaction and my reaction were exactly the same
11:15 yeah buddy, you bet it is! And if this shit isn't our next thread title then I'll be severely disappointed in all of you ;)

A lot of hotels make a "king" with two twin beds and still consider it a single bed.

I liked it but at the same time I have mixed feelings?? I'm into their PoGo vids for their chemistry and interaction while they chase Pokémon in a park. Mini DITLs. So I'm kinda 'meh' about it. That's really just my dumb problem with not being very interested in them individually anymore though.

That said, it was a good video :D Definitely rewatch worthy together with the other episodes. Dan was genuinely funny talking to himself (oh boy you're so funny when you're not trying so hard) and he was quieter because he was in public in a foreign country and he has enough common sense to not be too much of an obnoxious loud tourist. :thumb: And it did have some D&P cuteness, Dan buying medicine for Phil ("there you go you needy little shit" he says while not being able to hide the fondness in his voice and just the entire beginning and end of the video) so I can't complain too much.

DanDuhDanDan…all I really have to say is I can’t get enough of this chatty, grumpy, sweaty, messy-curly, ever so slightly jealous, judge-y (“put a shirt on”/”leather pants”), “reluctantly” fond little fucker. Damn, I loved him in this video. Just mad love.

As for the pair of ‘em…too many precious moments to name but these stood out:
- Phil coughing and hiding behind the blanket and weakly smiling in the background with Dan in the foreground…just something about the contrast in their energies but it still being sort of in their usual format
- Dan venturing out alone in a foreign city where he doesn’t speak the language to buy medicine for Phil just :wahh:
- How pleased he was to see Phil dressed when he got back
- And, of course, joint custody!
