What is said

The parts of the video and what is said in each (★ — how much it matters to the video).

00:00:00 — Greeting; fifth anniversary vacation on San Juan Island, Washington; 'another five at least'

  • ★★★ Hank says he and Katherine are on San Juan Island, Washington, on vacation for their fifth wedding anniversary; they have been married five years. — 00:00:02 · Katherine Green
  • ★★ Katherine Green: Katherine says she could stay married for another five years at least, and tells Hank to ask her again in five years. (playful) — 00:00:21 · Katherine Green

00:00:44 — The toilet bowl brush as a sign of how nice the place is; Hank voices the brush

00:01:08 — Interview: Katherine on Hank since the wedding and on Nerdfighteria (appreciative, a little jealous)

  • ★★ Katherine Green: Asked whether her view of Hank has changed since the wedding, Katherine says no: they dated a long time before marrying, so she already had a formed opinion of him. — 00:01:08 · Hank Green, Katherine Green
  • ★★ Katherine Green: Katherine says she is appreciative of Nerdfighteria but, loving to hang out with Hank, is a little bit jealous of it sometimes. — 00:01:20 · Nerdfighteria, Hank Green, Katherine Green

00:01:33 — HankGames and video games as a social thing: Battletoads, online-only multiplayer, Ocarina of Time, Pikmin

  • ★★ Katherine Green: Katherine says she enjoys HankGames and rewatching the episodes; she never played video games alone, and growing up the fun was playing Battletoads on the NES with friends. — 00:01:33 · HankGames, Katherine Green
  • ★★ Hank calls gaming a social thing and finds it sad that some games' multiplayer can only be played online, not locally; even watching Melissa play Ocarina of Time was social. — 00:01:54

00:02:20 — Ferry/fairies; slugs (Lemon's garden slugs, Washington banana slugs); going for a hike; thanks for being married; sign-off

  • ★ Katherine Green: Katherine says she hates tiny garden slugs (Lemon gets up from the grass with slugs on her legs) but enjoyed meeting the much bigger slugs in Washington. — 00:02:33 · Katherine Green

Humor (significant)

  • Katherine says she could stay married for another five years at least. — 00:00:24

    “I don't think that's how marriage works.”

  • Hank asks what the luxury toilet bowl brush would sound like if it talked, then voices it himself. — 00:01:02

    “I clean the loo!”

  • Katherine praises the little world of Pikmin. — 00:02:13

    “Them happy little guys dying for you.”

  • A fog horn sounds; both shout 'A ferry!' and Hank asks Katherine what she thinks about ferries; she says she doesn't believe. — 00:02:31

    “She doesn't believe in fairies!”
