Fuslie was a tiny bit late in joining the stream, and when she was reminded of her tardiness by Peter Park, she replied that she knew the stream would start late because Peter's account had been hacked. She also added that she was the one who hacked the account, saying:

"I predicted that Peter's YouTube account would be hacked because I was indeed the hacker herself."

Peter played along and threatened to turn her over to Google for illegal activity and responded by saying:

"You were the hacker? Wait, wait. Let me go into intermission quick so that I can send the Google contact that Rae sent me and let him know that you were responsible."

The friendly banter ended with Leslie telling her chat that she had blown her cover:

"They're onto me, they're onto me."

Peter Park and Leslie have been long-time friends and share quite a tight bond. After the announcement of Park joining the 100 Thieves went live, she even posted a sweet picture of the two and congratulated him:
