A sorry Wales were a distant second best as Scotland finally got one over on Warren Gatland in emphatic fashion, winning 35-7.
If Ireland in round one was bad, then this was somehow worse. The sight of Scotland running in five tries past their bogeyman Gatland's hapless side far outweighed the disappointment of losing to Andy Farrell's men in Cardiff on opening day.
Tries from George Turner, Blair Kinghorn, Matt Fagerson and a brace from Kyle Steyn banished the ghosts of Gatland and meant, for the first time since 1996, they had won the first two matches of the championship.
