0:00Tom explains the envelopes: two contain genuine facts, while the blank card requires a bluff.
0:44Natalie presents her non-vegan fire-extinguisher claim, followed by Chris's ketchup proposition and Gary's Coronation Street story.
1:28The panel explores fire suppression, kitchen fires, Gary's barbecue incident and keratin foam systems.
9:20Chris expands on tomato ketchup pills and their historical promotion as medical cures.
12:35Gary adds a television campaign, a date and a tattoo to his account.
17:48Tom makes his choice, and the blank card is revealed.

Two genuine facts and a blank card ought to be enough to keep everyone suspicious. On The Technical Difficulties, they also provide an excuse for a long conversation about what comes out of a fire extinguisher.

The week's only new upload, "\"The goose isn't going to be happy!\" | One Of These People Is Lying 2x03", has reached about 120,000 views. Natalie Gray presents the proposition that some extinguishers aren't vegan, explaining that their foam contains keratin sourced from cow hooves. Soon the table is discussing kitchen fires, foam systems and Gary Brannan's barbecue incident. Tom Scott has a bluff to identify, but there is quite a lot of fire-suppression knowledge to get through first.

Chris Joel supplies the historical ketchup-as-medicine claim, while Gary offers a story about complaints over a T-shirt on Coronation Street. The pleasure is in the cross-talk: viewers discuss how everyone supplies details that support everyone else's propositions, giving a potential liar more thinking time. Others single out the animated subtitles or admit the episode has sent them towards fire-suppression test videos.

The new episode is the channel's busiest upload right now, with the previous two instalments also continuing to attract views. Across the channel, the week brought roughly 181,000 views and an unchanged subscriber count. Today's viewing is well below its usual daily level, though that describes the day rather than the whole week.

For this little run of One Of These People Is Lying, the subjects have travelled from perfume and UFOs to elections and extinguishers. The format keeps finding room for a proper rabbit hole before Tom has to make his choice.

If you get an urge to watch fire suppression test videos after this one, that's understandable.

Round about the 8 minute mark this just becomes an interesting chat about fire extinguisher technology disguised as a game show. And that's exactly why I love this stuff.

The flashing subtitle text at 2:40 is incredible. Nobody subtitles like Tom Scott and Co.

I like how in "two of these people are lying", the metagame was "try and confuse Tom by pretending to lie when you're not and vice versa", and this one is "try and confuse Tom by everyone vomiting information that supports the other two's points, to give everyone more time to think of convincing lies should they need it."

I would've titled this episode "I forgot about the existence of powder"
