A possible concise summary is:
Adam Savage and Simone Giertz have a video chat about Simone's project of making a popcorn helmet that can feed her popcorn while watching a movie. Adam helps her by making a pair of vacuum-formed hands that can swing around and deliver the popcorn to her mouth. Simone works on the trapdoors, the motors, and the microcontroller that control the mechanism. They test the helmet and enjoy the hilarious results.
