* FullyAbsorbedFinale: Episodes 92 and 93 are effectively this for [[spoiler: the Crown Keepers and the first season of Exandria Unlimited, concluding their story arc within the main Critical Role campaign. Unfortunately, it's mostly a DownerEnding for the group, as Opal is taken over by the Spider Queen, Cyrus dies, and the rest [[BreakingTheFellowship are forced to go their separate ways.]]]]

** Episode 93 picks up from the cliffhanger of the previous episode. [[spoiler: Opal tries to bargain with the Spider Queen, but she is adamant: either Opal convinces her friends to leave peacefully, or she will have her kill them. Eventually, Opal manages to charm Dariax and Dorian into going look for Orym; but she defies the Spider Queen as she is watching them leave, and the goddess retaliates by killing the already injured Cyrus. Morrighan, seeing her companions leaving and following the order of the Raven Queen, leaves too with Cyrus's soul and some uncorrupted crystal memory from Opal. Fy'ra Rai stays to realize that taking the Circlet from Opal would kill her, but she manages to bargain with the Spider Queen to remain as Opal's protector for as long as her interests align with the Wild Mother's. [[BreakingTheFellowship It's the end of the Crown Keepers.]] A couple of days later, Dariax and Dorian reach Zephrah: Dariax is tired to fight against gods and monsters, but [[RageAgainstTheHeavens Dorian wants revenge for his brother's death]]. Dorian leaves Dariax in a tavern to find Keyleth, and thanks to her [[TheBusComesBack he comes back to the Bell's Hells]] just as they return from their mission on the Moon.]]

** A short-range one at the start of episode 93, witn an all-new [=NordVPN=] "Nordverse" sketch, where Laura and Ashley are hackers who bring up a female President that they answer to. Just before the game starts, Aabria Iyengar [[spoiler:who's the temp DM for the final chapter of the Crown Keepers' tale]] claims she's "reading for the part of madame President."

[[spoiler:Imogen manages to separate Otohan from her backpack that summons her Echo Knights early on, but things become don't really get easier as Chetney is killed in the first round of combat, though is later revived, little of what the Bell's Hells utilizes makes much effect, and Otohan is able to power up some nasty new perks and abilities with her Exaltant Fury.

* TurnsRed: It turns out the big bad guy has been recruiting powerful people who have the ability to become "Exaltant" when subjected to near-death experience. That means that when fighting a random group of his minions, there's a chance one of them will start glowing and gain a whole bunch of new abilities to challenge the party with. This power also extends to the bad guy's Exaltant generals, giving an in-universe explanation for the bosses in this campaign to have a second phase.
