32:09 The way Mephone4 is like a little kid who still wants to play their games but Cobs was like a dad who told them it’s time to go home, after everything just got deleted…and there was quite literally nothing left other than Baxter and Soap’s phone… something about that last scene just made me shocked. bro this episode broke me.

"Oh, look, a WIRE! I AM THE PERFECT ASSISTANT!" was the PERFECT way for toilet to go out. im shaking

[Its_Boki]

The end scene where everything is gone feels so surreal. No weird mountains, no trees, nothing...
It's like we're back to season 1.

1:04 I love how "British" is one of taco's traits

[tnnyn]

so THATS why yin yang is swapped
MEPHONE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE YIN AND WHAT WAS YANG

[septthestar]

AINT NO WAY I JUST SAID "they are gonna give us a ending with everyone alive and happy, right?" AND WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT, NO ONES HAPPY AND EVERYONE ELSE IS DEAD

[poke_ms]

The fact that Toilet was able to wipe out almost the entirety of Inanimate Insanity is legitimately SHOCKING.
Definitely the best ending for this hilarious character.

Hi OSC! I'm the voice actor of everyone's soaked eyes, and I really hope you enjoyed this episode! We've been working so hard on it, thanks to the II crew out there!

[Sally-gq]

The idea of "fakeness" and a persona being built habitually has probably been my favorite thing to dissect after all this. Taco's deceptive stupidity, Balloon's jerkiness, Knife's change from brute to caring, how much they all intended to do it or not alludes even themselves and it's so wonderful.

I also really loved the way Knife and Suitcase faked the drama in order to buy Toilet time. I think it really brings out the whole message of "fake it 'till you make it", which I think is meant to be the ultimate point. Really great stuff.

[Gecko_ilkygoo]

That paintbrush crying scene absolutely broke me. I never thought inanimate insanity could make me cry this much. Especially that scene that scene genuinely broke me.

[PGWK]

Y'know what I just thought of ? Those "best of" compilations aren't compilations anymore, they're memorials.

[wyldxstyle]

I’m completely floored right now-this finale was beyond anything i could've imagined. Every moment of the episode felt cinematic, like a full-on movie. At some points it even gave me chills...
Cobs telling MePhone4 to return home with him is such a thought provoking scene because the weight of MePhone4's reality hits hard: he has nothing left to return to, no real home. Everything he built is gone, and all he can do is accept what’s left-now that's some seriously professional storytelling.

When you realize that Toilet basically just erased the entire II universe:

32:08 I love how this line is delivered it really feels like a parent who’s just disappointed with their kid not mad just disappointed

[Have_Guy]

I think this represents a child playing with toys at a playground and then they're parents taking them home

[tankengineexpress]

This is either the coldest ending in history or the most insane cliffhanger ever

[CommonDrawings]

16:23 props to Paintbrush's voice actor, their crying genuinely broke me

[OliverSmithVAVO]
