at this point we know it's not gonna happen, but imagine if this whole situation did actually turn out to be a "we pranked the internet" thing by the try guys

like imagine how awkward it would be having to go forward like nothing happened after everyone already talked about how ned was their least favorite, he was the only one they could picture doing this, they always had a bad feeling about him, blah blah, etc.

imagine being in that office and having to look ned in the eye and say "it's okay though i'm sure they don't actually mean it"
