995	1	"A Sitcom Episode"	18:56	John	Rick	9 October 2017 (2017-10-09)
After finishing Mega Man Battle Network 4: Red Sun, Rick connects the game to Mega Man Zero 3, allowing the use of the Z-Saber as a chip in-game, which he briefly demonstrates. In a live-action intro, Rick and John introduce Zero 3, discussing its plot as well as new and changed gameplay mechanics compared to previous Zero games. After John expresses his relief that the game isn't an RPG, Rick suggests that he play it to start off. In-game, the two watch the opening cutscenes before John begins playing the intro stage. He reaches a brief cutscene where Harpuia appears, and later another one which introduces Omega. John narrowly defeats Omega in a boss fight, and Harpuia appears again to finish him, but they are interrupted by the arrival of Dr. Weil and Copy X. The group leave, and Zero is transported back to the base.
996	2	"Attacking the Babies"	22:09	John	Rick	10 October 2017 (2017-10-10)
While Rick switches the SNES controller used for gameplay, John manages to accidentally reset the game. Having only just saved, he is able to reload right where he was before. He goes and speaks to Cerveau to receive his rod and boomerang weapons, then returns to the command room to pick one of the first four real levels in the game. He chooses to start off with the stage of the bizarrely-named Blazin' Flizard. Early on in the stage, he finds a way to enter "cyberspace", which is populated with Battle Network 4 enemies due to Rick linking the games. He dies several times in both the cyberspace and normal variants of the level, but eventually manages to get all the way to the end of the stage, only to be immediately killed by Blazin' Flizard and given a game over.
997	3	"Don't Stub Your Balls"	17:40	Rick	John	11 October 2017 (2017-10-11)
After remapping the controls, Rick takes over for an attempt at Blazin' Flizard's stage, starting from the beginning due to the game over. While he plays through the stage, he and John discuss a musical similarity between Sonic Mania and Sonic Forces, and their feelings on the upcoming release of the latter. Rick reaches Blazin' Flizard, but the boss proves to be extremely difficult, and he soon gets another game over. He makes his way through the level from the beginning once again, but has more trouble dealing with a platforming segment over lava and dies several times. By the time he reaches Blazin' Flizard again, he only has a single life and less than half of his health left, and is almost instantly killed, giving him yet another game over.
998	4	"Were We Ever Really Friends?"	11:12	Rick	John	12 October 2017 (2017-10-12)
Rick attempts Blazin' Flizard's stage yet again. While he plays through it, he and John discuss the future of the Mega Man franchise and The Mega Let's Play. He reaches the boss, and almost defeats him on the first try, but is killed right before he lands the final blow. His second attempt goes much better, and he is able to finally defeat Blazin' Flizard. After getting his rewards for beating the stage, he returns to the base. He talks to Cerveau again, and explores the other rooms of the base, before heading back to attempt another level.
999	5	"Super Gingerly Boy"	14:19	John, Rick		13 October 2017 (2017-10-13)
John takes back control of the game, and heads to Childre Inarabitta's stage, a water level. He soon runs up against an enemy who is after the Dark Elf, and is told to run and hit a switch that "lowers the oceans water level" to stop him, an idea he and Rick make fun of. He gets a short way in, but then immediately jumps into an instant death spike and gets a game over. After a few more attempts, he gets fed up and hands the control back to Rick. Rick dies a few times, but eventually makes it through the section and finds the Dark Elf. This starts a difficult boss fight, and Rick soon gets a game over. He attempts the level again from the beginning and eventually gets back to the boss, but is still unsuccessful and runs out of lives once more.
