Live on stage at NerdCon: Nerdfighteria, Hank performs his punishment: the audience votes for Pop-Tarts, hot dogs, sriracha, baked beans, pudding, peanut butter and mustard, John and Maureen Johnson help blend them, and Hank drinks the result; in a voice-over he says he survived, it was worth it, and thanks everyone who came.

What is said

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

00:00:00 — At NerdCon: Nerdfighteria about to be punished; the audience votes on what he will blend

  • ★★ Hank says he is at NerdCon: Nerdfighteria about to be punished, and the audience is voting on the things he will blend. — 00:00:00 · Punishment

00:00:23 — The chosen ingredients go into the blender one by one

  • ★★ The audience-chosen ingredients are announced in turn: Pop-Tarts, hot dogs, sriracha, baked beans (with a little beef), pudding, peanut butter and, last, mustard. (playful) — 00:00:23
  • ★ Hank says everyone was rooting for a vegan blend, but it's not happening this time. (playful, hedged) — 00:00:35

00:01:27 — Peanut butter face chant, almond milk, blending and smelling the slurry

  • ★★ Mid-chug Hank recites the rule that when a Vlogbrother messes up, a Vlogbrother must be punished. (playful) — 00:03:02 · Punishment, Vlogbrothers

In the description and comments

Humor (dominant)

  • As the crowd chants for peanut butter face while peanut butter goes into the blender — 00:01:27

    “That's spoken like people who've never done peanut butter face, frankly.”

  • Watching the Pop-Tart disappear into the blender — 00:02:02

    “I am deeply regretting some decisions I've made in my past.”

  • After sniffing the blend before Hank drinks it, a co-host (unlabelled; not Hank) wishes for smell-o-vision — 00:02:26

    “and we could just pump the whole auditorium full of what I just smelled.”

  • Maureen Johnson, retreating from the smell — 00:02:33

    “You guys, this was not in my contract.”
