Fandom Hybrid Podcast #41 - The Stand (2020) Ep. 5
On this episode of the Fandom Hybrid Podcast, Hanako and Anthony discuss episode 5 of The Stand. We are now at the halfway point of the story, and we finally get a look at what Randall Flagg's followers are doing in New Vegas. Tom Cullen is successfully hiding in plain sight, while Dayna's ignorance of the definition of the phrase "low-key" raises a lot of questions. Harold takes in the "news" of Teddy's death with mixed reactions. Fran sets a plan into motion with unexpected results. Nadine tries to change her tune. Larry is forced to make some hard choices. Dayna comes face-to-face with the Dark Man.

What's up hybrids?
Welcome back to another episode
2
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,000
of Venom hybrid podcast.
This is hanako.
3
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:34,600
And I'm here with Anthony and we
are discussing episode 5 of The
4
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:39,100
Stand.
And, you know, I've been
5
00:00:39,100 --> 00:00:43,400
spending this evening editing
the previous episode, where we
6
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,400
discussed episodes, three and
four.
7
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,400
And there were some things that
we talked about in that show
8
00:00:48,500 --> 00:00:52,900
that completely fell flat in
this episode.
9
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,800
And I just feel Some kind of way
about it.
10
00:00:56,500 --> 00:01:02,900
What do you feel flat?
So in the Shell that we did four
11
00:01:02,900 --> 00:01:05,600
episodes three and four we were
talking about some of the events
12
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,300
that happened and we talked
about some of the characters and
13
00:01:09,300 --> 00:01:12,300
one of the characters that we
brought up was Dana our
14
00:01:12,300 --> 00:01:16,500
introduction to her and how you
know, she was a badass in this
15
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,700
in that episode and you know,
how they sent her to New Vegas
16
00:01:21,700 --> 00:01:24,100
is what they're calling me, but
they sent her to New Vegas.
17
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,800
To be one of the spies because
you know, she's such a badass.
18
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,000
She can handle herself.
And I have to say I was so.
19
00:01:33,100 --> 00:01:36,800
So very disappointed with her
character in this episode.
20
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,000
It was.
Now the thing is, I like the
21
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,700
actress.
I liked her when she was in
22
00:01:44,700 --> 00:01:50,500
Boulder. but when she got to New
Vegas, almost from the
23
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:55,600
beginning, just the way that
they talk about her character
24
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,300
life from the beginning, the
first scene of the episode, we
25
00:01:58,300 --> 00:02:03,300
get Julie and Dana and Lloyd.
And of course, Julie is the
26
00:02:03,300 --> 00:02:07,900
little cowgirl that we met in
the last episode who first
27
00:02:07,900 --> 00:02:12,900
encounters Nick, and Tom before
they leave to go to Boulder and
28
00:02:12,900 --> 00:02:16,800
she obviously ends up in Vegas,
which we figured anywhere the
29
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,300
Husky, right?
So she comes down to find Dana
30
00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:23,300
where Dana has already.
She's We made it to Vegas.
31
00:02:23,300 --> 00:02:26,600
She's already been put on a work
crew and she goes to find her,
32
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,000
you know, to ask if she's like,
so word around town is you've
33
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,000
been asking a lot of questions
about flag, you know, about the
34
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,600
big man and blah, blah blah.
And you, you know, you've been
35
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,400
making a, you know, making some
noise and people people are
36
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,000
saying you're being nosy or
whatever.
37
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,800
Immediately.
I'm like, Dana supposed to be
38
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,600
smarter than this.
This is one of the reasons why
39
00:02:49,608 --> 00:02:52,500
they said to her, she's not
supposed to draw attention. into
40
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:57,500
herself and like, literally That
was one of the things that they
41
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,700
mentioned about her throughout
the whole episode about her.
42
00:03:00,700 --> 00:03:05,100
She's asking a lot of questions
and even when she meets Lloyd
43
00:03:05,100 --> 00:03:09,600
for the, for the first time and
they're taking her up to their,
44
00:03:10,100 --> 00:03:13,300
you know, their Penthouse.
She still asking questions a
45
00:03:13,300 --> 00:03:15,000
winner.
What am I going to meet him?
46
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:20,700
And that I and I was just like,
I was literally holding my head
47
00:03:20,700 --> 00:03:24,600
in my hands this whole episode
because I was like, one, you are
48
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:31,200
not subtle in the least, right?
So you have the worst control of
49
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:36,000
facial expressions.
I have ever seen on a character
50
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,400
ever.
Literally.
51
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,400
They are not really good at
reading people's expressions.
52
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,000
Like they were halfway to paying
attention to.
53
00:03:45,100 --> 00:03:50,700
Can I get that?
But still, it's like she didn't
54
00:03:50,700 --> 00:03:54,600
even try.
It's like, she looks scared.
55
00:03:54,600 --> 00:04:00,000
She looked nervous.
She looked afraid of being found
56
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,300
out.
Like I said, she was too eager.
57
00:04:02,300 --> 00:04:06,800
She kept asking questions.
She seemed uncomfortable the
58
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:11,200
whole time.
It just, I had so many hopes for
59
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:15,800
her character when we were
introduced to her in, like, from
60
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,800
the beginning.
Meaning of this episode all the
61
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,000
way to the very end.
I was just disappointed.
62
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:29,000
I was just like Really?
This is what y'all did with
63
00:04:29,900 --> 00:04:33,800
character her character was.
It wasn't that different?
64
00:04:33,900 --> 00:04:37,700
Well, she's a little different
in the books, right later.
65
00:04:37,700 --> 00:04:42,100
The book in the books.
She like she what she basically.
66
00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:45,500
Well one.
That's pretty most right beside
67
00:04:45,900 --> 00:04:49,300
a little bit longer.
Shit.
68
00:04:49,300 --> 00:04:53,900
Actually worked her way up to
being Lloyd's girlfriend.
69
00:04:53,900 --> 00:04:56,400
The the heart that Julie is
playing now.
70
00:04:56,700 --> 00:04:59,100
She had worked her way up to
being a lawyer's girlfriend, and
71
00:04:59,100 --> 00:05:03,500
literally had him.
Fooled, had them all food for a
72
00:05:03,508 --> 00:05:06,000
long time.
And then I think flag kind of
73
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,200
found it out and told Lloyd, and
then that was comes to sleeping
74
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,700
with Lloyd in the book.
She was like, yes, she's
75
00:05:12,700 --> 00:05:15,400
sleeping over the top.
Right, right.
76
00:05:15,700 --> 00:05:20,100
And, you know, as she did it to
the point where he was really
77
00:05:20,100 --> 00:05:23,300
pissed off, because she fooled
him.
78
00:05:23,300 --> 00:05:25,600
Like he really thought she was
into him.
79
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,700
Yeah, house.
The way that they did it with
80
00:05:27,700 --> 00:05:31,000
this character again.
I know that there are some
81
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,500
changes.
Like I said, you know, Julie was
82
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:37,100
lawyer's girl and then they did
this whole thing where they were
83
00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:42,200
bringing her in for threesome.
And then you know, the vibe of
84
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:47,100
New Vegas was very almost
hedonistic.
85
00:05:47,300 --> 00:05:52,600
Kind of almost.
Yes, it was Sodom and Gomorrah.
86
00:05:52,900 --> 00:05:55,700
Yes, but you know what?
One of the things about Hedonism
87
00:05:55,700 --> 00:05:58,600
is this supposed to be Like
ultimate pleasure without pain.
88
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,400
And there wasn't painting that
because you had the fighting
89
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,200
pits where they were literally
hacking each other to death.
90
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:09,600
So that's why I say almost, but
yes, like Vegas, Randall, Flags,
91
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:14,300
Vegas is the epitome of sex
drugs, and rock, and roll, you
92
00:06:14,300 --> 00:06:17,400
know, you know, what?
I thought of I thought this is
93
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:22,800
basically Lloyd's wet dream
because it seemed like
94
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:28,400
everything was with Lloyd would
want in A place right there.
95
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,000
Seems to be something that would
be like this.
96
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,800
This is this was his vision of
how everything should be.
97
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,300
Alright, you know, when you
know, Randall, just hope knock
98
00:06:38,300 --> 00:06:44,100
yourself out right now.
I was not one of the thing.
99
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:46,300
I know you're talking about her
character.
100
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,700
I'm very disappointed in Lloyds
character.
101
00:06:49,700 --> 00:06:53,400
Like McGill.
No for real.
102
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,500
No for real would be like roll.
Over in his grave, as in like,
103
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:01,500
what did you guys do with this
character?
104
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:05,300
Like, well, he's one.
He's younger.
105
00:07:05,300 --> 00:07:10,400
He's a younger version of the
character and all of them.
106
00:07:10,500 --> 00:07:14,600
I mean, think about it in the
original and in the books.
107
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,500
Again, we're talking about a,
we're talking about stories that
108
00:07:18,500 --> 00:07:23,900
are about 30 years apart.
So wouldn't you excuse me?
109
00:07:23,900 --> 00:07:26,500
40 years, apart.
I keep forgetting because I was
110
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:32,200
17 when I started reading it.
So but you know, you're talking
111
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,700
about a book that takes place in
like the 80s.
112
00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:38,800
So it was a little more toned
down.
113
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:43,800
As far as that, like, Randall
Flagg was, he was the, he was
114
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,700
the boogeyman, he was the guy
who was getting them out of
115
00:07:46,700 --> 00:07:52,400
situations and, you know, there
was a little bit of a hierarchy
116
00:07:52,700 --> 00:07:56,400
in the original version, but it
wasn't.
117
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:01,200
What it is now, you know, it
kind of hinted at like the Vegas
118
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,300
Vibe or the sexual Vibe, but it
wasn't anything.
119
00:08:04,900 --> 00:08:11,500
So blatant as this iteration is
I don't mind that as much.
120
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:16,000
There's that that I'm totally
okay with, I'm just not.
121
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,000
Okay.
With Lloyd being a clown, he was
122
00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:27,000
literally a clown and, and
there's a way I would I think
123
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,900
there's a way that you could
could modernize Lloyd in a way
124
00:08:31,900 --> 00:08:38,900
where he's not a clown, you
know, well, this list be so
125
00:08:38,900 --> 00:08:43,200
Lloyd is in a position where he
is Flags right-hand, man, so,
126
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:49,200
he's got the position and he's
now got the ego to go along with
127
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,300
it.
And, you know, he's kind of
128
00:08:52,300 --> 00:08:54,800
drunk off of Power.
I know.
129
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:59,300
But I think I think Power.
They act like clowns it will
130
00:08:59,300 --> 00:09:02,600
absolute power corrupts.
Absolutely some common theme in
131
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:08,500
this show, but we talked about
it in every episode of every
132
00:09:08,500 --> 00:09:13,100
series, but I think it's
probably more or less my own
133
00:09:13,100 --> 00:09:20,900
fault because I had, I had kind
of put Lloyd in the category of
134
00:09:20,900 --> 00:09:25,100
people who were put in positions
where they had no choice to to
135
00:09:25,100 --> 00:09:30,300
choose to be with Randall.
Flag that maybe in him was a
136
00:09:30,300 --> 00:09:34,500
good person since you know, he
didn't want to kill anyone in
137
00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:37,800
the robbery.
He was upset when someone
138
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,600
actually died, but I understand
he would be into Fame.
139
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:45,500
But like I said, I thought I was
thinking there was no way they
140
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:47,800
could have done the portrayal
without him coming off as a
141
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,400
clown.
Like I say, it's probably have a
142
00:09:50,408 --> 00:09:53,300
little more dignity.
This is a little bit more.
143
00:09:53,300 --> 00:09:56,400
Like you can still have the fun
and beautiful.
144
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:01,800
And guy but not be like, just,
he just seemed to be just a
145
00:10:01,808 --> 00:10:07,100
complete, filthy nasty animal,
who deserves whatever he gets
146
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:13,400
right, you know, snorting coke
and again you're impotent at the
147
00:10:14,100 --> 00:10:16,100
dimension of random.
Is this?
148
00:10:16,900 --> 00:10:19,500
And you can't tell me that.
Julie doesn't know what she's
149
00:10:19,500 --> 00:10:20,900
doing.
She do she does.
150
00:10:22,300 --> 00:10:24,900
She's see our business is doing
it on purpose.
151
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:34,700
She was like, are you okay?
And, you know, I said this, the
152
00:10:34,700 --> 00:10:38,300
last episode, I said, I
absolutely love cat McNamara as
153
00:10:38,300 --> 00:10:40,500
Julie Lowry.
And, you know, when we were
154
00:10:40,500 --> 00:10:45,800
introduced to her in the last
episode, in this episode, I have
155
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,600
to say, I think, Julie Lowry
might be one of my favorite
156
00:10:49,700 --> 00:10:54,300
characters of hers ever now.
Like, she no one can pull out
157
00:10:54,300 --> 00:10:58,500
for dignified skank, as well as
Oh my gosh, he's doing such a
158
00:10:58,500 --> 00:11:01,100
great job of it and it is
amazing.
159
00:11:01,100 --> 00:11:04,000
I'm loving it.
Absolutely.
160
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:10,000
Loving it and then her wardrobe,
you know, she is like all
161
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,500
glammed out and she is living it
up for.
162
00:11:13,500 --> 00:11:17,400
She's like, okay if I have to
suck up to the right-hand man to
163
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,800
get this Glitz and glamour, I'm
going to do it but I don't have
164
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,600
to necessarily like it.
So it's like she's sucking up to
165
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:29,000
him and at the same time.
I'm bringing him down like like
166
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,000
when they were there on the bed.
They were trying to make out
167
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,100
with Dana and they're kissing
and stuff.
168
00:11:33,100 --> 00:11:37,400
Is she said something about flag
and he's like, you know, I don't
169
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,600
like it when you say his name
will we're about to fucking.
170
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:45,100
She's told she turns the Dana
but she's like, oh, I forgot.
171
00:11:45,500 --> 00:11:49,600
He doesn't like it when I say
mister flags and and she
172
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,900
literally turns this visit in
his face like several times and
173
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,800
he's just he can't get it up now
and Goes to the bathroom and
174
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:02,600
he's embarrassed and she is like
silently cracking up, because
175
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,600
this is so funny to her.
It's funny.
176
00:12:04,900 --> 00:12:07,300
This is not going to happen.
We can go shopping know.
177
00:12:07,300 --> 00:12:09,800
What's funny is.
He says, he says, I told you
178
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,200
this like five times and I'm
thinking to myself, multiply
179
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:18,400
that times for he's probably,
he's probably told her about 20
180
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,700
times.
What I am absolute.
181
00:12:22,700 --> 00:12:26,200
Okay, so I talked about how much
I didn't like the way they did,
182
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,900
they Has character in this
Julie's cares.
183
00:12:29,100 --> 00:12:33,600
It's absolutely loving.
Absolutely love her.
184
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:39,400
You you mentioned, you mentioned
Julia's worship.
185
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,600
Dana's were Drew was just as
good as wardrobe was good to
186
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,800
that.
That last outfit she had on the
187
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:51,000
glittery pants.
Repair answer like they were
188
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,300
dressed to the nines and New
Vegas and they were in even even
189
00:12:55,300 --> 00:12:58,100
Lloyd's soup.
Your head on it for fight with
190
00:12:58,100 --> 00:13:01,300
Pretty Fly.
He was he was just looking, they
191
00:13:01,300 --> 00:13:05,900
were all looking good.
But it was it was just Again,
192
00:13:05,900 --> 00:13:08,400
characters.
That's one of the things that
193
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,600
makes the stand the story that
it is and I just felt like, they
194
00:13:13,300 --> 00:13:16,700
just felt like they did
anything.
195
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,700
Yeah, but Dana thing was, was a
little strange and odd.
196
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,800
I could have gotten over a
little bit of it, except for her
197
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,600
facial expressions.
Her facial expressions took me
198
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,100
out of the whole story like
because it was such a
199
00:13:31,100 --> 00:13:33,500
distraction.
I was like, why are you looking
200
00:13:33,500 --> 00:13:36,500
so obviously uncomfortable.
Like you're supposed to be
201
00:13:36,500 --> 00:13:39,600
undercover.
You're supposed to be blending
202
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,700
in.
You're not supposed to be making
203
00:13:41,700 --> 00:13:46,800
yourself stand out.
You know, and it's just like it,
204
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,500
just, it, it took me out of the
story.
205
00:13:50,700 --> 00:13:53,500
It was odd because it was
completely opposite in the book
206
00:13:53,500 --> 00:13:57,200
in the book.
She didn't stand out and flag
207
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:04,200
was the one that sent for her.
So that it I wonder if it was
208
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:12,100
just just a change because
because they, I don't want to
209
00:14:12,100 --> 00:14:15,900
say that they, they don't.
The try.
210
00:14:15,900 --> 00:14:19,400
It seems like the writing the
story really for people who
211
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,500
haven't read the book because
that change ever.
212
00:14:24,500 --> 00:14:28,100
So subtle, just if you read the
book, it would just make you
213
00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:30,800
think what what are they doing?
Dana?
214
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,000
You're at me.
Like, that's not how she was
215
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,200
supposed to be.
Yeah.
216
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:39,400
She she didn't stand out and I
don't know.
217
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,000
I don't know if they want
because I'm trying.
218
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,800
How am I supposed to do this?
Like, remember, I think I said,
219
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,400
how do they not have this flag?
Not know they're coming.
220
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,700
You know, that would be the
question you would have watching
221
00:14:53,700 --> 00:14:56,100
this, but if you read the book,
he knew they were coming.
222
00:14:56,100 --> 00:14:59,700
And they were they who knew they
were and here is almost as if
223
00:14:59,700 --> 00:15:02,700
they're like, well, we're going
to kind of make it look like he
224
00:15:02,700 --> 00:15:07,200
doesn't know but we in reality.
No, he does know.
225
00:15:07,300 --> 00:15:10,600
Right?
Whoo-hoo, the spots are and
226
00:15:10,700 --> 00:15:13,100
thing I have ever tried.
Yeah, they're trying to I don't
227
00:15:13,100 --> 00:15:16,200
want to use words to Verde.
Expectations again, but he kinda
228
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,400
wanted to have it where with
made her stand out.
229
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,100
Was her asking questions as
opposed to him already knowing?
230
00:15:24,300 --> 00:15:29,800
Yeah, I mean to build up to the
climax of the episode, you know,
231
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:34,600
when see go was he finally meets
him because then he's like aha.
232
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,400
I knew all along.
I mean, as opposed to we already
233
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,800
know he knew that mean this is
like this is trying to mess with
234
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:46,900
our expectations, but you didn't
The way where you took away,
235
00:15:46,900 --> 00:15:50,400
everything that we kind of liked
about Dana, you just kind of
236
00:15:51,500 --> 00:15:55,000
whitewashed it all the way and
made you relevant.
237
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,900
Right?
The other thing since you since
238
00:15:57,900 --> 00:16:02,700
you mention about him knowing
who the spies were, so the other
239
00:16:02,700 --> 00:16:07,100
thing that I did not like was,
of course, once she goes once
240
00:16:07,100 --> 00:16:10,900
flag calls for her and they push
her out the elevator basically
241
00:16:10,900 --> 00:16:13,700
at this point, you know, flag
pretty much his figured out
242
00:16:13,700 --> 00:16:17,300
which We saw, he probably, he
kind of sort of looked at her
243
00:16:17,300 --> 00:16:21,200
when they were there watching
the fight, you know, he was
244
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:25,900
making a speech to everyone and
his face kind of singled her
245
00:16:25,900 --> 00:16:28,000
out.
He looked at her and was still
246
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,400
talking, right?
Right.
247
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,600
So we know that was only her
sing.
248
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:36,800
It like saying that he saw her,
so she goes up to his Penthouse
249
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,600
and he asks, her about the
spies.
250
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,700
He tells her that he knows that
she's a spy.
251
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,300
He's not, he's been watching her
ever since she left Boulder.
252
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:49,900
Okay, which that made sense?
Because this is Randall Flagg.
253
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,800
He's supposed to be all-knowing.
And one of the things about him
254
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,800
is that he couldn't see what was
going on in Boulder.
255
00:16:57,100 --> 00:16:59,600
So, of course, he would see them
once they come out.
256
00:16:59,700 --> 00:17:07,300
This is what I didn't like.
So she sees Tom Cullen down in
257
00:17:07,300 --> 00:17:10,400
the pits.
He's one of the people that
258
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,300
cleans up the body parts in the
dead bodies.
259
00:17:13,300 --> 00:17:16,700
After they do this little
hacking fight that they, you
260
00:17:16,700 --> 00:17:21,800
know, that they do, the fighting
ring, and she makes an excuse to
261
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:26,500
go down into the pits, to talk
to him because she wants to warn
262
00:17:26,500 --> 00:17:32,300
him about leaving.
This bug me so much because The
263
00:17:32,300 --> 00:17:37,400
main things about the story.
The original story is that the
264
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:44,500
spies could not know who they
who each other were, because
265
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:49,600
Randall Flagg can read minds.
So all he has to do is just look
266
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,200
and see what you're thinking
about or look, you know, look
267
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,200
for the answers that he wants,
and he be able to get it.
268
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,100
That was one of the big things
about sending them separately
269
00:17:59,700 --> 00:18:01,900
and them, not knowing who the
other person.
270
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,400
One was.
Yeah, and it seemed like a
271
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,200
failure.
I hope her part to kind of
272
00:18:08,300 --> 00:18:11,300
single him out for something.
Right?
273
00:18:11,300 --> 00:18:15,200
I mean, and and like you say
that, I don't know.
274
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,500
I don't understand why they
wrote that in there.
275
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:21,800
I don't understand why that was
part of the story and why should
276
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:26,300
have him a note likewise, ER,
give him a note and he can't
277
00:18:26,300 --> 00:18:27,900
read.
And, I understand that she might
278
00:18:27,900 --> 00:18:30,600
not know that he, she doesn't.
She doesn't, she doesn't know
279
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:31,900
him, really.
She has seen.
280
00:18:32,100 --> 00:18:35,200
Him, but she doesn't know him.
But again, this is this is the
281
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:39,500
part where I say that was a
change to the original story
282
00:18:39,700 --> 00:18:41,800
that you didn't have to make,
didn't have to make.
283
00:18:42,100 --> 00:18:45,400
And even in the contest, even in
the context of this story.
284
00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:49,700
It's not even important.
It's not even, it's not even
285
00:18:49,700 --> 00:18:53,900
relevant.
Like, what have we gained by her
286
00:18:53,900 --> 00:18:56,800
going to him?
We as the people watching, as
287
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,500
the viewers, we know who he is.
We know that he's there.
288
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:02,400
You already shown this that he's
Is there.
289
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:07,800
So what was the purpose of that
whole scene other than to, to
290
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,900
let us know that now Julie and
Lloyd have seen the last person
291
00:19:11,900 --> 00:19:14,000
that she was talking to, so
right.
292
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,800
It starts making inquiries.
Well, I need to know who the
293
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,600
first spy is.
They'll be like, oh, well, she
294
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,600
was talking to this dude, and
she was making it very, you
295
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,600
know, she was being very
adamant.
296
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:29,800
We write it was again, so out of
character for who Dana was
297
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,600
supposed to be.
Yeah.
298
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:36,700
And from from the then seems
like something really stupid to
299
00:19:36,700 --> 00:19:42,900
have to write into the show to,
to set us up for Randall, trying
300
00:19:42,900 --> 00:19:46,100
to figure out, figure out, who
the third is five years.
301
00:19:46,100 --> 00:19:50,400
It's just, I don't know.
You would think they could do
302
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,400
better.
They really could be better
303
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:57,100
without making Dana's character
appear even worse than she is,
304
00:19:57,100 --> 00:19:59,700
right?
And we've seen her in a pressure
305
00:19:59,900 --> 00:20:01,800
situation, make really good
decisions.
306
00:20:01,900 --> 00:20:06,300
Asians, you know, we've seen her
in a life-or-death situation
307
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,500
making good decisions.
So all the decisions she made in
308
00:20:10,500 --> 00:20:16,400
this, since she went to Vegas
seem to be dubious at best,
309
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:22,100
don't dump dubious at best them
at the worst.
310
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:28,400
And any other the last thing
with Dana is when she she thinks
311
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,700
she's killed.
Randall Flagg, you know, she
312
00:20:30,700 --> 00:20:33,100
take some scissors and shears.
Was it into his neck?
313
00:20:33,300 --> 00:20:37,500
He pretends like he's dead and
he gets up and he still asking
314
00:20:37,500 --> 00:20:38,600
her.
Who's the third spot?
315
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:43,000
Who's the third spot?
That doesn't fit with what we're
316
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,300
supposed to know about flag
because flag, went need to ask
317
00:20:46,300 --> 00:20:48,000
her.
He could have tried to read her
318
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,600
mind and then the way that they
set this up with her going to
319
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,800
meet Tom.
He would have seen that.
320
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,200
So none of that made sense from
a story point of view.
321
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,300
It just didn't flow, right?
Right.
322
00:21:02,900 --> 00:21:07,400
Well, Let's give them the
benefit of a doubt.
323
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,000
I'm getting antsy steer from
Hanukkah.
324
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,300
The main one always talking
about, we are giving the writers
325
00:21:18,300 --> 00:21:20,900
too much credit.
And now you want to give them
326
00:21:20,900 --> 00:21:22,900
some credit.
Let's give them a this.
327
00:21:22,900 --> 00:21:27,500
This this is, let's try this.
Try this.
328
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:33,300
Let's just the same.
Let's say he can read minds, but
329
00:21:33,300 --> 00:21:38,500
Dana doesn't know, Tom's name.
She went after nose.
330
00:21:38,500 --> 00:21:40,500
Now.
She'll all he would have to do
331
00:21:40,500 --> 00:21:44,600
is see his face.
Well all he's seeing, if he read
332
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,500
her mind all he would see with
she was asking asking for a
333
00:21:47,500 --> 00:21:51,900
bracelet that she lost and then
he was see Tom's response and
334
00:21:51,900 --> 00:21:55,800
how he is and everybody calling
him dumb it all he has to all he
335
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,600
would have to do literally is Go
Ask.
336
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:03,500
Okay where the dummies.
Well good, but if you think
337
00:22:03,500 --> 00:22:08,800
about this, if you see did you
talk to him if They assume that
338
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,800
that may have been the spot.
Maybe you tried to read his
339
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,400
mind.
And, you know, Tom's brain.
340
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,800
Is he going to be just this
going to be a mess?
341
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:24,500
Anyway, so this say this, this
is a, the Raptors are just
342
00:22:24,500 --> 00:22:30,400
seeing Tom, Cullen is so dumb.
That Randall reads his mind and
343
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:31,900
doesn't realize.
He's a spy.
344
00:22:32,300 --> 00:22:36,300
So that's why he stumped.
He stepped because he can't
345
00:22:36,300 --> 00:22:39,100
figure it out.
Because he can't really read Tom
346
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:41,200
Collins mine.
And when you tries to read his
347
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,400
mind, his mind is a mess.
So he doesn't dig any deeper.
348
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,400
He can't possibly be the spot.
He's already assumed that
349
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,900
they're all smart because he's
like, oh, yeah, you got the old
350
00:22:51,900 --> 00:22:55,000
lady outside the town and you
know, yeah.
351
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,700
Y'all had to staggered entry.
Right?
352
00:22:58,700 --> 00:23:02,200
So he's ready when issues come
into contact with.
353
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,300
So you probably use like what?
Maybe they haven't spoken to
354
00:23:06,300 --> 00:23:09,000
each other and don't know.
We took, you know, have have
355
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,900
actually talked to each other
since since they've been there,
356
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:13,600
then he would just be like,
okay.
357
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,700
Well, it can't it's not this guy
because he's an idiot.
358
00:23:17,100 --> 00:23:18,900
That's how overconfident
Randall.
359
00:23:18,900 --> 00:23:21,200
Flagg.
Is this, how cocky he is.
360
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,100
He's like he just glanced at
times of mine.
361
00:23:24,300 --> 00:23:27,100
No, no possible way and moved on
to the next.
362
00:23:27,100 --> 00:23:30,200
That's why he stumped.
He doesn't make any sense to him
363
00:23:31,100 --> 00:23:34,700
and they're not going to figure
it out because there's no
364
00:23:34,700 --> 00:23:36,700
possible way.
They would have sent someone as
365
00:23:36,700 --> 00:23:40,700
dumb as time.
I'm coming to to spy on them and
366
00:23:40,700 --> 00:23:42,400
let me just let me just make it
clear.
367
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,200
We're not calling Tom Cullen.
Dumb where it words.
368
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:49,100
No.
No, we're not calling him dumb
369
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,000
recalling.
We're saying with the people in
370
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,400
context think of him.
Yeah.
371
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,200
I just wanted if there's
something completely different.
372
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,000
Yeah.
I'm glad you made that clear.
373
00:23:59,300 --> 00:24:01,100
I don't think Tom Cullen is
dumb.
374
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,900
That's that's not even what
we're talking about is is how
375
00:24:04,900 --> 00:24:10,600
he's perceived by the Leave the
bastards who are running lost
376
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:14,700
Vegas, where that lady at the
front desk, when he was checking
377
00:24:14,700 --> 00:24:19,100
in on, exactly reach through the
TV and punch her between her
378
00:24:19,100 --> 00:24:21,700
Escape.
Well, hey, it's so bad.
379
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,900
The guard was like, wait, is the
guards?
380
00:24:23,900 --> 00:24:25,500
Both of them?
Like, wait a second.
381
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,600
We don't treat any mood is
coming here.
382
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,200
They're free wheel like that, no
matter who they are.
383
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,200
Yeah.
I mean, I give them credit for
384
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,200
that because they saw enough to
her her place in sorry.
385
00:24:36,300 --> 00:24:37,000
No.
No.
386
00:24:37,100 --> 00:24:40,100
We Just not gonna throw him in
the slave pain because you don't
387
00:24:40,100 --> 00:24:41,400
like them, right?
Yeah.
388
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,400
I'm saying.
So I'll give him credit for
389
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,200
that.
Yeah, but you know because that
390
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,600
they basically saying, no, no,
no, you can't just no, we're
391
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,200
just talking to treat people any
kind of way that come here.
392
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,600
So, I'm okay.
At that.
393
00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,600
That was like the one bright
spot in the whole episode.
394
00:25:00,900 --> 00:25:05,700
When these two random security
people like, no, no, no.
395
00:25:05,700 --> 00:25:07,200
No, that's not what we're going
to do with him.
396
00:25:07,500 --> 00:25:10,400
Anyone who comes here with their
Free Will is treated with
397
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:11,900
respect.
They're, they're, they're
398
00:25:11,900 --> 00:25:16,000
considered a citizen.
That's right, and I'm okay with
399
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,500
that.
But we are not calling Tom
400
00:25:18,500 --> 00:25:23,000
coming down that, that is the
perspective of the people who
401
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,800
don't know any better.
Yeah.
402
00:25:26,300 --> 00:25:27,800
Okay.
I just have one more thing to
403
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,500
say about Vegas.
And then we can go back to
404
00:25:29,500 --> 00:25:32,900
Boulder cook because I mean,
really Vegas, this episode was
405
00:25:32,900 --> 00:25:40,400
Danna Lloyd, and Julie for the
most part. yeah, but We're
406
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:47,800
seeing more and more of Randall,
Flagg, and Alexander Skarsgard
407
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:53,200
as Randall.
Flagg is like, probably the best
408
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,400
casting decision.
They did for this show.
409
00:25:56,700 --> 00:26:01,300
I think he's perfect.
I keep thinking of all the times
410
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,900
when he was playing Eric and
Trueblood right, where he went
411
00:26:04,900 --> 00:26:10,200
from soft, sweet and caring,
Eric to I'm Going to rip your
412
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,900
head off.
Exactly.
413
00:26:11,900 --> 00:26:14,500
There it is.
He was doing it and I'm like,
414
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:17,600
wow, that this guy is, he's
incredible.
415
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,000
Incredible.
And I mean he he has that kind
416
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:28,100
of Charisma that you think of
with Randall Flagg like yes,
417
00:26:28,100 --> 00:26:30,400
Randall Flagg is supposed to be
terrifying.
418
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,600
You know again, he's the boogie
man.
419
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,100
He's the dark man.
He's the walking dude.
420
00:26:35,300 --> 00:26:40,000
He's supposed to be all of these
terrifying things, but He has to
421
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,300
be charismatic to because you
can't be terrifying and bring
422
00:26:44,300 --> 00:26:48,300
people over to your side
willingly and they're, and
423
00:26:48,300 --> 00:26:52,100
they're happy to be there.
No, you have to be a charismatic
424
00:26:52,100 --> 00:26:55,800
person.
And he exudes that in this
425
00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:02,700
character, but then when, when
he gets dark, he gets dark, like
426
00:27:03,100 --> 00:27:08,800
there's nothing.
In the original miniseries.
427
00:27:09,900 --> 00:27:16,400
Randall Flagg to me was more
comical and I don't mean that in
428
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,000
a good way.
It was like, very cheesy.
429
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:23,500
Hmm, you know, I mean, it was
okay by early 90 standards, but
430
00:27:23,500 --> 00:27:26,700
when you go back and you look at
the series, that's one of the
431
00:27:26,700 --> 00:27:29,200
things about the series.
I'm like, oh, if I could just
432
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,900
take, you know, certain things
out of the original miniseries
433
00:27:32,900 --> 00:27:35,200
and change it.
That's like one of the main
434
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,000
things because that Roundup.
It was not scary to me.
435
00:27:38,300 --> 00:27:40,000
He was cheesy.
Hmm morning.
436
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:45,400
And it was more comical, more
comical, this version of Randall
437
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:50,400
Flagg.
He has some humor, but it comes
438
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,000
with that Charisma.
It comes with that like deadpan
439
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,400
humor, and he's kind of, he's
kind of sarcastic, and he's kind
440
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:01,700
of a smartass.
But again, he's very he's very
441
00:28:01,700 --> 00:28:04,200
approachable.
At the beginning.
442
00:28:04,500 --> 00:28:08,800
Hmm.
And he draws people to him and
443
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,400
then it gets to the point where
he reaches like, with his
444
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:19,000
people, kind of like Messiah
status, but one of the best
445
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,500
parts of the casting of the
show, yeah.
446
00:28:22,300 --> 00:28:26,500
Yeah because he's like that in
that they cable series big
447
00:28:26,500 --> 00:28:30,500
little lies.
He's an abusive husband, and he
448
00:28:30,500 --> 00:28:34,200
does that he's really sweet and
Extreme.
449
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,600
He has this Darkness to them
that just comes out.
450
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:40,100
Yeah, in a sec.
He's really good at that.
451
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,300
Yeah.
Yeah.
452
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,600
All right.
Let's go to the boulder free
453
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,100
zone.
So we're going to we're going to
454
00:28:48,100 --> 00:28:50,700
start from the end of last
episode.
455
00:28:50,700 --> 00:28:55,500
So the end of last episode we
saw Harold and Nadine, they were
456
00:28:55,500 --> 00:28:59,600
finding explosives to kind of
put their plan together for
457
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,900
murdering the boulder, five and
mother Abigail per row.
458
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,600
Randall Flags orders and they
get caught by Teddy, who is
459
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:10,400
Harold's friend, and they being
shoots him and he dies.
460
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:15,800
So we pick up in this episode
with Nadine and Harrell.
461
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,000
And they are basically taking
off their clothes because I, you
462
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,100
know, there's blood on the
clothes and they've they've done
463
00:29:22,100 --> 00:29:28,400
something with Teddys body and
Harold is, you know, freaking
464
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,300
out a little bit and they'd he's
trying to calm him and keep him
465
00:29:31,300 --> 00:29:37,600
together and We find out is that
they have taken Teddy's body to
466
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,200
the amphitheater and set them up
in a chair and made it look like
467
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:47,100
a suicide.
Now, I don't know about y'all
468
00:29:48,700 --> 00:29:53,400
but one they made him look like
a suicide when they didn't shot
469
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,800
him in the chest.
So they moved his body into the
470
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:02,300
chair at the Amphitheatre to
make it look like he committed
471
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:04,600
suicide.
There's no blood.
472
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,400
Splatter.
There's no, you know, it's just,
473
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,300
it was one of those things where
it is.
474
00:30:09,500 --> 00:30:11,200
There's no CSI.
There.
475
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:16,500
There's, there's no Crossing.
Syd, I mean Larry Larry thought
476
00:30:16,500 --> 00:30:19,700
about it, he was like, oh, that
there is, I fill this hole.
477
00:30:19,700 --> 00:30:23,100
So I feel that he's dubious of
the whole thing's dubious about
478
00:30:23,100 --> 00:30:26,100
the whole thing, but he's about
this doesn't seem right?
479
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:31,800
And then so what happens is they
still send someone out to look
480
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,900
for Harold and of course, they
find Harold and he breaks the
481
00:30:34,900 --> 00:30:38,800
news to Harrell about or, you
know, will somebody else broke
482
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,600
the news?
He's there to confirm that Teddy
483
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:48,300
is dead and how Harold has he
has a good reaction at first,
484
00:30:48,300 --> 00:30:51,900
you know, he's kind of shaking,
he's upset, he turns and he
485
00:30:51,900 --> 00:30:58,200
looks like he's about to cry and
then he says He took the
486
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:03,400
coward's way out, and then
immediately goes into, you know,
487
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,600
what he was talking about
building a movie theater with
488
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,600
all the movies.
We found in the homes.
489
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:13,200
Maybe I can do that now like and
language looking at him like,
490
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:13,900
yeah.
Okay.
491
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:18,200
Before that, though.
He looked like he turned and
492
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,800
tried to summon tears and the
tears are not coming.
493
00:31:22,300 --> 00:31:24,900
So he decided, okay.
This is not going to work.
494
00:31:24,900 --> 00:31:29,000
So when we go the other way, you
know, But you can see that Larry
495
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,000
was just like yeah.
What is Love you Till There?
496
00:31:33,300 --> 00:31:35,500
Larry wasn't feeling it like
this?
497
00:31:35,500 --> 00:31:40,700
Some about this in, right?
He can't he doesn't seem to be
498
00:31:40,700 --> 00:31:44,900
like really upset.
But at the same time he doesn't
499
00:31:44,900 --> 00:31:50,500
seem to care either.
I think well, I will say this.
500
00:31:52,300 --> 00:31:54,700
Looking at it from an
outsider's, point of view.
501
00:31:54,700 --> 00:31:56,900
Like if I didn't already know
what was going on.
502
00:31:56,900 --> 00:32:00,500
I would probably look at
Harold's reaction as one
503
00:32:00,500 --> 00:32:03,900
everybody already knows.
He's kind of sort of he's kind
504
00:32:03,900 --> 00:32:09,200
of sort of an introvert and not
very socially Adept.
505
00:32:10,100 --> 00:32:15,700
So I would kind of look at it as
maybe he's processing it and
506
00:32:15,700 --> 00:32:18,900
he's processing it differently
than other people would process
507
00:32:18,900 --> 00:32:21,100
it.
I would probably look at it.
508
00:32:21,300 --> 00:32:25,200
If he's in shock because
sometimes when people, you know,
509
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:29,400
when people deal with that, they
don't know how to react.
510
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:33,000
It's kind of like one of those
things where it's like there is
511
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:40,700
a brains of expected reactions.
It seems as though Larry is is
512
00:32:40,700 --> 00:32:44,800
looking like he's not showing
anything in their brains are
513
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:50,000
reactions isn't as in.
We expect you two to be either
514
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,000
upset.
To be even if you're a person
515
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,200
who was somewhat aloof, like
Carol D is, they're still going
516
00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:00,600
to react a certain way, but hair
is reaction is so against
517
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:05,400
whatever should be on that range
that instinctively Larry's like.
518
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,200
Cuz you know, there is good at
reading people.
519
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,000
He instinctively was like, you
the look on his face.
520
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:18,000
Like I don't know about this cat
but I feel like when it's still
521
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,800
would be still would be on that.
And still be like, oh, They were
522
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,800
Harold is a little bit
different.
523
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,600
So he's going to take a little
bit differently.
524
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,500
That was his friend.
Larry's like yeah, that was his
525
00:33:28,500 --> 00:33:31,300
friend.
But his reaction ain't on the
526
00:33:31,300 --> 00:33:36,700
spectrum of expected Reactions
where he first reacted when he
527
00:33:36,700 --> 00:33:40,600
first talked the stew.
I felt like he had an
528
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,700
appropriate reaction and then it
I think it was when he turned
529
00:33:44,700 --> 00:33:47,900
around and then turn back and
immediately went into the movie
530
00:33:47,900 --> 00:33:50,300
theater thing.
That was the thing that would
531
00:33:50,300 --> 00:33:53,300
have said that would Have been
like okay, something's not right
532
00:33:53,300 --> 00:33:55,100
about him.
Yeah, because it looked like he
533
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:59,600
was going to cry and he couldn't
pull up the tears.
534
00:33:59,900 --> 00:34:04,300
So he went to plan B.
I think he had the tears at the
535
00:34:04,300 --> 00:34:09,199
beginning.
No, he turned around almost like
536
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,100
to do more.
He started out.
537
00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:14,000
I agree with you.
He started out like he was
538
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,600
going.
He looked like he was going to
539
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,900
be sad and upset and he turned
around to close the deal.
540
00:34:20,699 --> 00:34:23,000
And the tears didn't come out,
right?
541
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:28,500
Hey, you like The Herald mode
which was very detached being.
542
00:34:28,500 --> 00:34:32,500
Yeah, whatever, you know, so he
was talking about opening a
543
00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:34,000
movie theater.
Maybe I can do that.
544
00:34:34,300 --> 00:34:38,000
Yeah, because he's natural
reaction was with Nadine.
545
00:34:38,100 --> 00:34:41,900
When they were changing clothes.
He was that would have been if
546
00:34:41,900 --> 00:34:44,900
you had acted that way.
They would have Larry would have
547
00:34:44,900 --> 00:34:47,800
accepted that because that's how
you truly feels, right?
548
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:52,800
A little weird, a little And you
know, and like what is this
549
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,199
really mean?
And you know, I'm kind of upset
550
00:34:55,199 --> 00:34:57,900
about it, but I don't really
kind of know how I should really
551
00:34:57,900 --> 00:35:01,000
feel about it.
No, because it's my fault, but
552
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,700
then he didn't want to show that
he did.
553
00:35:02,700 --> 00:35:07,000
It seem like he was overthinking
the situation and I think Larry
554
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,900
picked up on that but I agree
with you.
555
00:35:08,900 --> 00:35:11,700
He started out like looking like
okay, I guess.
556
00:35:12,100 --> 00:35:15,200
Yeah, this this is my friend and
I'm sick of seems like that was
557
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,400
we know that was your friend.
Y'all are really close, but then
558
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:22,000
you turned around and it's like
He was thinking about okay, I
559
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,800
guess I should cry.
Okay, that's not working.
560
00:35:28,500 --> 00:35:31,400
It says round.
Oh, yeah, you know he was gonna
561
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,800
have because this because that
was when it seemed like he was
562
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,300
formulating an idea.
And I think that is related to
563
00:35:38,300 --> 00:35:43,700
the bomb.
You know, if you've got in in in
564
00:35:43,700 --> 00:35:47,100
his memory, I'm going to show a
movie in the Amphitheatre and
565
00:35:47,100 --> 00:35:50,600
blow everybody up.
Yeah, I think that's that's why
566
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:55,000
he went into that mode of.
I have an idea because you know,
567
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,000
he is who years?
Yeah.
568
00:35:57,500 --> 00:36:04,200
Yeah, but so later on he
confronts mating about shooting
569
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:05,700
Teddy.
He was like, you didn't have to
570
00:36:05,700 --> 00:36:07,800
kill him.
He was like, I was his friend, I
571
00:36:07,808 --> 00:36:09,900
could have, you know, I could
have talked to him, I could have
572
00:36:10,300 --> 00:36:14,900
You know, I don't know if he
thought he might be able to make
573
00:36:14,900 --> 00:36:18,000
him understand or if he was
just, you know, would have found
574
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,800
a way to deflect, but he was
like, I could have handled this,
575
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,300
I could have handled this, he's
upset.
576
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:29,000
And at first Nadine, seems not
necessarily condescending to
577
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:32,100
him, but she's basically, like,
look, we're here for a purpose.
578
00:36:32,100 --> 00:36:37,200
We have to do what he tells us
to do, and that's it, that was
579
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,000
going to get in the way, and he
goes to grab.
580
00:36:40,100 --> 00:36:46,300
Are around her neck and she uses
that to kind of, you know, do
581
00:36:46,300 --> 00:36:50,600
her little seduction thing, you
know, sweet-talk him.
582
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,400
This is what we're supposed to
do and blah, blah blah.
583
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:57,600
And you know, then we're going
to go to him and you know, she,
584
00:36:58,700 --> 00:37:01,900
you know, give them a hand job
or whatever and then as they're
585
00:37:01,900 --> 00:37:08,000
getting ready to leave.
Here Comes Frannie to find him
586
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,600
like someone's told her told her
that Harold was at the school.
587
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:18,100
So Nadine highs while she talks
to Harold and she's being like
588
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:22,700
really overly friendly with him,
you know, she's inviting him to
589
00:37:22,700 --> 00:37:26,700
dinner and she's like, yeah.
I saw, I heard about Teddy.
590
00:37:26,900 --> 00:37:28,600
I'm so sorry.
Why don't you come to dinner?
591
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,700
And it's just like, really
awkward like it.
592
00:37:30,700 --> 00:37:32,800
Even at one point.
They were standing so close
593
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,200
together.
Look, like they were about to
594
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,800
kiss.
I was Like what is going on in
595
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:41,200
this scene?
It's just weird, you know, but
596
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,200
then immediately after that, she
goes to Larry's house.
597
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:48,200
And she's basically like hey, we
invited Harold to dinner for
598
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,400
tomorrow night and I need you to
go Snoop in his house while he's
599
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,000
at my house, what?
It's like.
600
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,200
Yeah, like the worst the worst
idea of all ideas.
601
00:37:58,100 --> 00:38:00,900
But then when she said she had
she was like, you know, I'm just
602
00:38:00,900 --> 00:38:02,800
kind of worried.
I feel like he was going to do
603
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,000
something.
He she was like, I know, I know
604
00:38:05,008 --> 00:38:07,000
it sounds ridiculous.
And he was like, nope.
605
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:08,700
It doesn't.
I've been thinking the same
606
00:38:08,700 --> 00:38:12,000
thing and I was like, yeah, like
I felt something when I first
607
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,200
met him and then Joe and I was
like, oh, yeah.
608
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:19,200
So at this point, you kind of
Wonder, is this all of them
609
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:23,400
really being smart and piecing
this all together, or if you
610
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:27,200
know the powers that control
mother Abigail or if God is kind
611
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,200
of planting those ideas in their
heads and making them.
612
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,200
Because other than that you
really Okay, I was gonna save
613
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,900
this.
Well, I think, I know, I think I
614
00:38:37,908 --> 00:38:46,200
know you were gonna go.
I think, I think, I think the
615
00:38:46,300 --> 00:38:50,900
these group of this group of
people were chosen for a
616
00:38:50,900 --> 00:38:56,300
particular reason, for different
reasons mostly is because of
617
00:38:56,300 --> 00:38:59,800
their instincts, you know, Stu
has good instincts.
618
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:03,000
He's good with people.
Larry has good instincts, he is
619
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:09,700
Good at reading people.
Same thing with Nick, Nick has
620
00:39:09,700 --> 00:39:13,300
that ability to kind of see
people for who they really are.
621
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,600
And I think that is something
that is sort of like this Common
622
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:23,300
Thread.
I don't think because a lot of
623
00:39:24,300 --> 00:39:28,200
I'm trying not to get off way
off base here.
624
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:33,900
But a lot of what most of us
tend to understand about the
625
00:39:33,900 --> 00:39:39,800
Christian God is that he has
given us Freewill like not since
626
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,900
the Old Testament, you know, the
in and he doesn't give his
627
00:39:42,900 --> 00:39:45,600
Visions.
He doesn't kind of tell us what
628
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,500
to do.
He kind of gives us the choices.
629
00:39:48,500 --> 00:39:52,000
He gives us the options and
these people all have Choices,
630
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,300
they all have options and it's
up to them to make the choice in
631
00:39:56,300 --> 00:39:59,400
what they do.
Like Larry is presented with
632
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,600
choices and you chooses.
You know, what do you want to
633
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,300
do?
Same thing with what's-her-name.
634
00:40:06,300 --> 00:40:09,700
She didn't have to go to a,
Larry to break into Harold's
635
00:40:09,700 --> 00:40:11,700
house.
But that's what she chose to do.
636
00:40:12,100 --> 00:40:16,000
And even when, you know, you
haven't gotten to that yet.
637
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:21,000
But when movie Abigail goes off
on Nick, about the spies, that
638
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,900
was a choice that they made and
they have to deal with the
639
00:40:23,900 --> 00:40:26,700
consequences.
That's where all of this is
640
00:40:26,700 --> 00:40:28,600
about.
These people are making choices
641
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,000
and we have to do with
consequence.
642
00:40:30,300 --> 00:40:35,500
So I don't think it's as much as
God giving giving her no
643
00:40:35,500 --> 00:40:38,600
knowledge or giving her vision
about something.
644
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,300
It's just that she's choosing to
follow her Instinct and same
645
00:40:42,300 --> 00:40:45,100
thing with Larry.
There's something not right with
646
00:40:45,100 --> 00:40:48,600
Harold right now and they they
have this desire to figure out
647
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:51,200
what it is and they're making
choices.
648
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,500
Towards that end.
Does that make sense?
649
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:58,100
It does it does?
Yeah, but while we're on that
650
00:40:58,100 --> 00:41:01,500
subject, so I'm going to talk
about my other, my second
651
00:41:01,500 --> 00:41:04,200
character gripe for this
episode.
652
00:41:04,500 --> 00:41:09,600
Franny Franny.
I love that girl.
653
00:41:11,900 --> 00:41:15,700
Oh.
Let's talk about and this is
654
00:41:15,700 --> 00:41:18,800
another recurring theme in our
podcast.
655
00:41:19,100 --> 00:41:26,000
Let's talk about not being able
to read the room with Miss Fran
656
00:41:26,900 --> 00:41:32,200
goldsman.
So Franny goes to invite Harrell
657
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,900
over for dinner.
She's being exceedingly
658
00:41:35,900 --> 00:41:39,300
friendly.
He comes over for dinner the
659
00:41:39,300 --> 00:41:42,800
next night.
She's dressed up.
660
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,600
She's lay it out, you know, nice
dishes.
661
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,500
She's being overly friendly.
Overly chatty.
662
00:41:48,500 --> 00:41:51,400
She gives Howard a hug when he
gets there.
663
00:41:51,900 --> 00:41:59,200
First of all, that's anybody's
first clue, that something
664
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:05,400
suspicious is going on because
she has not hugged Harold ever,
665
00:42:05,700 --> 00:42:09,000
ever in the court.
No, not ever.
666
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:15,500
Okay, second.
You've spent most of the first
667
00:42:15,500 --> 00:42:19,900
four episodes.
Being such a bitch to him,
668
00:42:20,700 --> 00:42:25,300
correction correction back
before the left.
669
00:42:25,300 --> 00:42:28,600
The hometown.
When they were talking in the
670
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:29,700
house.
She did.
671
00:42:29,700 --> 00:42:36,700
Let her head on you.
Okay, one moment.
672
00:42:37,700 --> 00:42:41,700
She did seek comfort that but
try to comfort him.
673
00:42:41,900 --> 00:42:50,000
One head not does not a friend
make, so then they're doing all
674
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,600
of this talking and they're
doing all of this chattering and
675
00:42:54,300 --> 00:42:58,200
he's talking, you know, hair was
just running off at the mouth
676
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,900
doing this thing again.
If you can't tell that Harold is
677
00:43:00,900 --> 00:43:05,600
being fake, something is wrong.
I think Stu is just giving him,
678
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,200
you know, the benefit of the
doubt because still is oblivious
679
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,700
to Fran he's playing.
So he doesn't know that Larry is
680
00:43:12,700 --> 00:43:16,400
searching Harold's house.
While Harold is that there's and
681
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,100
also students giving him the
benefit of the doubt because he
682
00:43:19,100 --> 00:43:21,100
just lost his best friend.
Right?
683
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,600
So students, taking the position
that we're doing this to kind of
684
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:28,300
help come for him and let him
reassuring him and let him know
685
00:43:28,500 --> 00:43:30,900
that were there for him.
If we need if he needs us,
686
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:32,500
right?
So they do you do.
687
00:43:32,700 --> 00:43:34,500
Doesn't know what a friend is
doing, right?
688
00:43:34,500 --> 00:43:38,200
And then here's what frame
really messes up because first
689
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,600
of all, she's kind of sort of
zoning in and out of this
690
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,200
conversation.
So you see parts of the
691
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,900
conversation where Harold is
talking and she seems really
692
00:43:46,900 --> 00:43:50,600
engaged overly engaged again.
She's not getting faking.
693
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:54,600
She's being like overly
everything at this point and
694
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,500
then other parts of the
conversation she's kind of zoned
695
00:43:57,500 --> 00:43:59,400
out.
She's kind of like you can look
696
00:43:59,700 --> 00:44:02,900
and see that something else is
on her mind or that she's Into
697
00:44:02,900 --> 00:44:06,700
the conversation.
So how about starts telling this
698
00:44:06,700 --> 00:44:12,600
story about when he was eight or
nine years old and his sister,
699
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:17,000
Amy and friend, they take them
to the carnival and, you know,
700
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,200
he's telling them about he's
telling still about them playing
701
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:22,300
games and about this ice cream
thing.
702
00:44:22,300 --> 00:44:24,100
He's like, yeah, we went to go
get ice cream.
703
00:44:24,100 --> 00:44:27,100
And this guy is looking at me,
you know, kind of weird and
704
00:44:27,100 --> 00:44:31,000
their friend walks in, you know,
he sees that face and he ends up
705
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,000
giving her three ice cream.
Ames and one of them had
706
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,300
chocolate on it as she gives me
the chocolate and he looks at
707
00:44:37,300 --> 00:44:39,100
her and he's like, right, you
remember that story?
708
00:44:39,100 --> 00:44:42,800
You remember she was like, well,
I guess I just felt bad because,
709
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,700
you know, he gave us the ice
creams for free and Harold was
710
00:44:45,700 --> 00:44:49,700
like, yeah, but you know what?
That didn't happen because I
711
00:44:49,700 --> 00:44:54,200
wasn't there and as soon as he
said that I was like, oops.
712
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,700
And still is just there.
Looking like he doesn't
713
00:44:57,700 --> 00:45:01,200
understand and she was like,
what he was like, I wasn't
714
00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:02,700
there.
That didn't happen.
715
00:45:02,900 --> 00:45:05,800
And she's like, yes it did.
He said, no.
716
00:45:06,300 --> 00:45:08,700
He said, you never took me
anywhere.
717
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:10,800
You never invited me to go
anywhere.
718
00:45:10,900 --> 00:45:13,600
He was like, my sister came home
and told me that story.
719
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:18,000
He was like, you know, and then
he goes into this little thing
720
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:22,800
like, literally, at this point,
friend should be able to read
721
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:28,300
the room.
Harold's voice is almost hostile
722
00:45:28,300 --> 00:45:30,900
at this point.
He's like, yeah, I just sat here
723
00:45:30,900 --> 00:45:34,700
and told a big fat ass lie about
you being nice to me and you
724
00:45:34,700 --> 00:45:37,800
didn't even like, you didn't
even catch it, that it wasn't
725
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:42,300
true, you know, and then he
starts talking about his sister
726
00:45:42,300 --> 00:45:45,800
and how everybody loves Amy.
He was like, you know, I'm kind
727
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,400
of glad my parents went with her
because they wouldn't have been
728
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:53,000
able to survive without her.
And instead of hearing the
729
00:45:53,000 --> 00:46:00,100
bitterness in his voice about
being the odd child out Francis.
730
00:46:00,500 --> 00:46:05,000
I miss her so much.
Are you stupid?
731
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,300
Do you not hear the hostility in
voice?
732
00:46:09,300 --> 00:46:14,500
When he talks about his sister
and then he just called you out
733
00:46:14,500 --> 00:46:19,900
for lying and then you take that
whole conversation and
734
00:46:19,900 --> 00:46:23,000
everything that he just said
about how his parents made him
735
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:27,600
feel and how his sister made him
feel and you make it about her.
736
00:46:29,300 --> 00:46:32,400
I was like, I was like, you know
what?
737
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:40,500
Hair, just go ahead and blow the
house up now just like so, Our
738
00:46:40,500 --> 00:46:45,800
character is supposed to be
smarter than that if I may not
739
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:50,000
be remembering this, but I
thought that was a story that
740
00:46:50,500 --> 00:46:54,400
that her sister was telling
people that was it wasn't true.
741
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,800
But she was telling people that
story to make Fran the good.
742
00:46:59,100 --> 00:47:04,800
And I know I think that the
story was this happened with Amy
743
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,100
and friend.
When they went to the carnival,
744
00:47:07,100 --> 00:47:09,800
she friend was able to get like
the free ice cream.
745
00:47:09,900 --> 00:47:12,900
Whatever, but Harold, wasn't
there with them.
746
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,200
Hey, hold him.
The story about what happened at
747
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,000
the carnival.
Okay, but I thought Amy was
748
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,400
going around telling people that
the story that she was lying
749
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:27,100
about Harold being there.
And that the story had been told
750
00:47:27,100 --> 00:47:30,900
so many times that it's has sort
of become true.
751
00:47:31,900 --> 00:47:35,400
I don't, I don't remember maybe
that maybe that happened in the
752
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,000
book of the original, but that's
not the way it was being.
753
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:39,700
Yeah, that's not the way it was
being towed.
754
00:47:39,900 --> 00:47:44,100
Told this time and it just don't
use why I brought it up was if
755
00:47:44,100 --> 00:47:47,200
I'm remembering that correctly.
Either from the book of this
756
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,900
miniseries that for the original
miniseries.
757
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:53,100
That's another change that
there.
758
00:47:53,100 --> 00:47:55,700
I guess they're change.
Wouldn't be so bad because
759
00:47:56,100 --> 00:48:00,100
there's a shows, how friend
wasn't really paying attention
760
00:48:00,100 --> 00:48:03,900
to that would have been in the
original miniseries because the
761
00:48:03,900 --> 00:48:08,100
way it was in the original
miniseries, like Fran was never
762
00:48:08,100 --> 00:48:12,200
mean to Harrell like, She might
have had a minor annoyance about
763
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,600
him having like the Schoolboy
Crush, but that's one that I
764
00:48:15,607 --> 00:48:19,100
mean, first of all friend was
played by Molly Ringwald.
765
00:48:19,100 --> 00:48:23,000
I don't know if Molly Ringwald
has it in her to be a mean hair.
766
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:28,900
But her version of Frannie was
like, the All-American Girl.
767
00:48:28,900 --> 00:48:29,900
Yeah.
Yeah.
768
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:34,100
Nice, you know, gives people a
chance, like, she was really
769
00:48:34,100 --> 00:48:37,000
sweet to Harold.
Even though Harold was a little
770
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,700
bit weird.
She was never mean.
771
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:43,800
Two hands ever mean to him.
So even the story, he told about
772
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:48,000
the nail about her tilling, you
know, she didn't even remember
773
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,900
that, right?
Tell him to put, you know, those
774
00:48:50,900 --> 00:48:54,400
reject Slater's on the nail and
then I said something about it
775
00:48:54,408 --> 00:48:59,800
and she's like, oh, yeah, I
remember so is it was just one
776
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:05,800
of those and I was just like
Franny is supposed to be smarter
777
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,800
than that because like how do
you go from treating somebody
778
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,600
like there?
The bottom of your shoe, like,
779
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:13,400
literally that's how she treats
her.
780
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:17,800
For the most part to all of a
sudden, you're Chatty Cathy and
781
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:21,000
inviting him over and giving him
hugs and blah blah.
782
00:49:22,100 --> 00:49:26,500
No Harold's not stupid.
That's that's the one thing that
783
00:49:26,500 --> 00:49:31,000
she does under it.
I mean, If he hasn't shown you
784
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:37,100
from the beginning, how smart
and intuitive he is, you know,
785
00:49:37,100 --> 00:49:40,700
he was the one that came up with
the plan to leave Ogunquit and
786
00:49:40,700 --> 00:49:45,400
to go to the CDC.
He was the one who literally
787
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,100
saved her life.
He was the one who got her to
788
00:49:48,100 --> 00:49:51,300
Boulder.
Safely Harold is not stupid by
789
00:49:51,300 --> 00:49:55,400
any stretch of the imagination.
But yet she's treating him like
790
00:49:55,400 --> 00:50:01,300
he is And I have a problem with
that because it's like, she's
791
00:50:01,300 --> 00:50:05,600
not supposed to be that dense.
And that's how she's coming
792
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:12,500
across in this episode, like
just under, I don't know.
793
00:50:12,500 --> 00:50:18,400
It just it bugs me so much.
Well, obvious characters in
794
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,400
Boulder have made poor
decisions.
795
00:50:21,700 --> 00:50:26,200
Think of the spies was a poor
decision, having Larry break
796
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:30,500
into his house, you know, was a
poor decision, right?
797
00:50:30,500 --> 00:50:34,000
Especially considering that
Harold has surveillance camera.
798
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:38,800
It was cameras and he's a lot
more and of course, they don't
799
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:41,100
know this.
But this is a, this is a guy who
800
00:50:41,100 --> 00:50:45,600
is planning murders, not just
made murder.
801
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:49,800
He is planning murders.
And and my thing is, if you
802
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:55,100
suspect this about him, do you
think they would be easy to
803
00:50:55,100 --> 00:50:57,100
figure it out?
Like he's just going to leave
804
00:50:57,100 --> 00:51:02,100
stuff lying around for you to
find, you know, and I don't
805
00:51:02,100 --> 00:51:05,400
know.
I think I think I think we're
806
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:11,800
bothers me and maybe you also is
that everyone seems to be under
807
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:16,600
estimating Harold.
And like if you kick a person,
808
00:51:16,900 --> 00:51:22,600
you know, as much as he's been
kicked and he's still surviving
809
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,200
like he's one of the last people
left on the earth.
810
00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:30,400
He's gonna feel a little bit
more power, you know, especially
811
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:34,000
after being beat down by that
dude was side of the road.
812
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:37,800
He's not going to be so easily
taken down anymore.
813
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:39,300
Right?
What's the right though?
814
00:51:39,300 --> 00:51:41,100
Fran?
This this?
815
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:46,000
I don't know at the meeting when
they were talking about what
816
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,400
they should tell, the people
about the crucified guy.
817
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:51,800
That's when I realized that her
character was not going to be
818
00:51:52,900 --> 00:51:55,400
Was it was not going to be
written very well when she was
819
00:51:55,400 --> 00:52:00,400
like, oh, you know, because
we're Larry say, I mean, am I
820
00:52:00,408 --> 00:52:04,200
the only guy who saw that guy's
eyes turned black and she's
821
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:07,700
like, who knows what we saw, you
know, and I'm thinking myself,
822
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:11,800
really sees season complete and
other than that.
823
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:15,600
Now, so, yes, she would be
stupid enough to tell Larry, to
824
00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:19,200
breaking it, to Harold's house
and try to figure out what's
825
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:20,700
going on.
Even though they have no idea
826
00:52:20,700 --> 00:52:22,500
what they're looking for.
It's different if you know,
827
00:52:22,700 --> 00:52:25,100
You're looking for.
If you know, it's again to try
828
00:52:25,100 --> 00:52:29,000
to find but you have no idea.
I just kind of think that he's
829
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:31,200
doing something.
Well, maybe we can bring this
830
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:36,300
house and get a clue.
That's not specific enough that
831
00:52:36,300 --> 00:52:39,700
isn't and as soon as this
skipping here, soon as Larry
832
00:52:39,700 --> 00:52:43,100
broke into the house, where you
guys have been locked door and
833
00:52:43,100 --> 00:52:45,200
he can get in.
You know, what?
834
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:46,700
I guess.
I'm not going to find what I
835
00:52:46,700 --> 00:52:48,100
need.
Get out of here.
836
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:52,300
And let me also mention.
This is off the subject.
837
00:52:52,700 --> 00:52:56,500
But I always have an issue when
they put Brothers in this
838
00:52:56,500 --> 00:52:59,700
situation with Larry because
he's black.
839
00:52:59,700 --> 00:53:02,900
Why, because what?
He has experience with breaking,
840
00:53:02,900 --> 00:53:08,200
the people's houses.
Can we can we not can we not do
841
00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:11,100
that?
You like I do have an issue with
842
00:53:11,100 --> 00:53:13,600
subliminal stuff.
I know I'm being overly
843
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:17,500
sensitive to this but that sends
out your terrible.
844
00:53:17,500 --> 00:53:21,800
Subliminal message to everyone
watching this show that you can
845
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:24,000
ago.
Going to recruit the black man
846
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:27,400
to break into somebody's house,
and then he don't even do it.
847
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:30,400
Right.
He's got the flashlight shining,
848
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:36,300
that goes around the house, do,
okay, make it any more obvious
849
00:53:36,300 --> 00:53:38,700
that you've never broken into
anybody's house.
850
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:42,900
But let me stop.
I just want to say no, you were
851
00:53:42,900 --> 00:53:45,000
right.
Appreciate them.
852
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:48,500
Have the black man breaking in
some white boys house because
853
00:53:48,500 --> 00:53:53,200
then all of a sudden you seen
that this subliminal message, To
854
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,500
us that.
That's, that's what we do.
855
00:53:55,500 --> 00:53:57,600
He got on the hoodie has, I'm
sorry.
856
00:53:57,600 --> 00:53:59,400
I'm sitting here watching on the
screen right now.
857
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,600
He's breaking into the house.
He's got a hood.
858
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,200
Onto walking around with a
flashlight.
859
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:06,500
Come on, guys.
We got to do better.
860
00:54:06,500 --> 00:54:09,300
I thought that too.
I really did because I was like,
861
00:54:09,300 --> 00:54:11,600
okay, you could have gone to.
You could have gone to Glenn.
862
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:15,600
You know, Glenn is not Glenn is
not a 70 year old man in this
863
00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:19,600
version.
No, he's not, you know, he could
864
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:27,200
have done it but Anyway, so as
you said, as Larry is clumsily
865
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:30,800
going through Harold's house.
He goes upstairs.
866
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:35,100
He opens up a drawer.
He finds a shirt that he
867
00:54:35,100 --> 00:54:39,800
remembers Nadine wearing and
this shirt is in Harold's drawer
868
00:54:40,900 --> 00:54:45,500
and he gets a call on the radio
from France, saying hey, he's on
869
00:54:45,500 --> 00:54:46,800
his way back, get out of there
now.
870
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:49,900
And like literally Harold is
running to the house because at
871
00:54:49,900 --> 00:54:52,300
this point Harold his kind of
Get out.
872
00:54:52,300 --> 00:54:57,400
Something is going, you know,
something's not, right.
873
00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:59,500
So he's literally running into
his house.
874
00:54:59,500 --> 00:55:02,100
Like he's expecting to catch
someone there.
875
00:55:02,100 --> 00:55:09,000
Okay, and as he's coming in the
door now, or as Larry closes the
876
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:12,400
drawer, he knocks over a book
and it knocks over the chess
877
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,900
pieces that are on Harold's
dresser.
878
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:22,200
So he tries to put the pieces
back in the right place.
879
00:55:23,300 --> 00:55:26,400
So this is Harold.
We're talking about Harold who
880
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:31,200
is meticulous Harold, who is
probably a little OCD Harold,
881
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:34,600
who shined his shoes and combed
his hair and made sure
882
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:38,800
everything was in place before
he went to go ask this girl who
883
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,100
literally kicked him out of her
house that.
884
00:55:41,500 --> 00:55:42,000
Yeah.
Hey.
885
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,300
You want a ride?
Cross-country with me, you know,
886
00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,500
he's very meticulous about his
things.
887
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,700
You can even see that in the
house that he's staying in,
888
00:55:49,900 --> 00:55:52,700
everything is in place.
Nothing was out of place.
889
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:57,300
The door that he needed, secure
was locked something.
890
00:55:57,300 --> 00:56:02,000
I should have told you.
Don't Snoop around here, but he
891
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,900
knocks the stuff over.
He gets out just in time Harold
892
00:56:05,900 --> 00:56:08,100
comes into the room.
He looks around, and he looks at
893
00:56:08,100 --> 00:56:14,200
the, he looks at the chessboard
and he noticed his one of his
894
00:56:15,100 --> 00:56:17,700
chess pieces is facing the wrong
direction.
895
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,400
Meticulous about that kind of
stuff.
896
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:26,500
They notice stuff like that.
Okay?
897
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:32,800
Props to Larry, forgiving Every
piece back to exactly where it
898
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,100
was.
Except the night.
899
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,300
Yeah, the night facing the wrong
direction, but props to him
900
00:56:39,300 --> 00:56:42,800
forgetting every piece because
they could have been missed but
901
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,400
he saw it.
He put everything back exactly
902
00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:47,900
where it was.
I used to be a chess player
903
00:56:47,900 --> 00:56:50,600
because he probably was like,
okay this needs to go here blah
904
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,500
blah, blah, blah, blah.
I mean literally that, that that
905
00:56:53,500 --> 00:56:56,600
can be the only thing because
somebody like me who does not
906
00:56:56,600 --> 00:56:59,100
play chess.
I would have just looked at it
907
00:56:59,100 --> 00:57:04,400
board and be like, fuck it.
I'm doing because we did.
908
00:57:04,900 --> 00:57:09,200
But at least he also sought a
Deans shirt, which that's going
909
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:11,100
to come back up.
Yeah, it's going to give him a
910
00:57:11,100 --> 00:57:15,900
clue, especially considering the
conversation that hair earlier.
911
00:57:15,900 --> 00:57:20,700
We'll get to that, too.
But then Back to the dinner
912
00:57:20,700 --> 00:57:24,700
before Harold leaves after he
has this little meltdown about
913
00:57:24,700 --> 00:57:28,600
Amy or whatever.
He excuses himself from the
914
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:32,700
table, to go to the restroom,
and he goes upstairs, where the
915
00:57:32,700 --> 00:57:34,800
restroom is supposed to be.
First of all, you want a
916
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:40,200
two-story house in a luxury
subdivision because I saw what
917
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:43,100
the houses looked like.
When they Dean walked out,
918
00:57:43,100 --> 00:57:45,000
looking for Joe early in the
episode.
919
00:57:45,300 --> 00:57:48,400
You can't tell me there's not a
powder room on the on the
920
00:57:48,900 --> 00:57:50,500
bottom.
For why would you send him
921
00:57:50,500 --> 00:57:53,700
upstairs?
There's almost always The Powder
922
00:57:53,700 --> 00:57:56,500
Room on the bottom for the.
Why would you, you know, oh, I
923
00:57:56,500 --> 00:57:59,000
need to use the restroom.
Yeah, up the stairs into your
924
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,400
what?
However, it's not a, it's not
925
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,800
unheard of houses, not having
powder rooms on the first floor
926
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,400
is not unheard of house that
big.
927
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:13,600
No, I'm sorry.
Those are luxury homes when I
928
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:16,900
live in Georgia homes like that.
Okay.
929
00:58:16,900 --> 00:58:19,900
Well continue.
Can t continue With this story.
930
00:58:19,900 --> 00:58:23,200
And I'll, I have a bone to pick.
He goes upstairs.
931
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:28,100
Those upstairs walks into their
bedroom sees a teddy bear, and
932
00:58:28,100 --> 00:58:33,100
they focus on the teddy bear.
And I thought they were going to
933
00:58:33,100 --> 00:58:34,100
folk.
I thought they were going to
934
00:58:34,100 --> 00:58:35,800
take the test.
He was going to take the teddy
935
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:40,100
bear for something else.
But no, he plants a camera in
936
00:58:40,100 --> 00:58:43,700
the teddy bear.
No, he didn't plan the camera.
937
00:58:43,700 --> 00:58:46,100
The camera was already.
There was a nanny cam.
938
00:58:46,900 --> 00:58:53,200
So, how did he get the?
How did he get the I'll have to
939
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:58,100
do is open it up, open it up,
and get the and get the, the
940
00:58:58,100 --> 00:59:02,500
school code off of the OKC, as
The Nanny, cams were way after
941
00:59:02,500 --> 00:59:04,100
my kids were in.
That's now.
942
00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:07,100
I don't know.
Well, bomb to pick.
943
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:16,100
Okay, one it has a battery.
And and I'm not gonna, he must
944
00:59:16,100 --> 00:59:19,000
be like, I don't want to see a
high level hacker, and it
945
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:23,900
probably didn't take that much
skill to do but who knows how
946
00:59:23,900 --> 00:59:26,600
long the battery happening and
he can't because I'm sure he's
947
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:29,800
not walking around with
batteries in his pocket and
948
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:34,400
active cameras batteries don't
usually last, you know, more
949
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:39,100
than six months at the bat best,
if it is always on.
950
00:59:39,500 --> 00:59:41,100
It's not going to Last six
months.
951
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:44,100
Well, they probably haven't been
there six months yet.
952
00:59:44,100 --> 00:59:46,500
So what?
But I think we can probably
953
00:59:46,500 --> 00:59:48,000
there.
Yes.
954
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:53,600
Before that, secondly, who puts
a nanny cam in their bedroom.
955
00:59:56,200 --> 01:00:03,800
Well, maybe one of the maybe
whoever was living in the house
956
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:06,200
before.
Maybe one of the maybe the
957
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:09,400
spouse was suspecting another
spouse of cheating and that's
958
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,600
why it's in there.
You see it all the time.
959
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:14,300
Now you give his Riders too much
credit.
960
01:00:15,300 --> 01:00:17,000
No, no.
No, you're not gonna do that to
961
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,300
me.
You, I would I would have been,
962
01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:23,100
I would have been more likely to
believe him bringing cameras and
963
01:00:23,100 --> 01:00:25,400
planting them as opposed to him
fine.
964
01:00:25,500 --> 01:00:30,900
You nanny, cam that he can
hijack and add to his Wi-Fi
965
01:00:30,900 --> 01:00:33,700
network because Vinny like,
okay.
966
01:00:33,700 --> 01:00:38,500
Well then how far?
I just have a lot of questions
967
01:00:38,500 --> 01:00:43,800
because we've got some Wi-Fi
cameras around my house to see
968
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,800
the in Blackwell house.
His house is far enough away to
969
01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:50,400
walk.
For him to walk in just a few
970
01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:55,900
minutes, but is it Wi-Fi that
strong to pick up that Nanny
971
01:00:55,900 --> 01:00:58,500
cam, right?
Because if not been in any
972
01:00:58,500 --> 01:01:01,800
cameras on the network, he was
able to hack that Network and
973
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,400
why isn't their work still up at
the house and wives?
974
01:01:05,100 --> 01:01:08,800
I just have a lot of questions.
We are in a post-apocalyptic
975
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:12,800
world and my scenario would have
made more sense.
976
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:14,400
Here.
Scenario would have made more
977
01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:18,600
sense, the camera in the bed,
but, but the camera was on.
978
01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:23,800
Dear.
Yeah, I'm just saying I have I
979
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:27,000
don't know there's a lot of
stuff to kind of like about this
980
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:32,000
episode and a lot of stuff to be
like, what the hell, what we are
981
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:37,300
thinking, like what we, we not
ask questions watching this.
982
01:01:39,700 --> 01:01:41,200
I'm sorry.
Go ahead, Casino.
983
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:43,500
You're you're you're right.
You're right.
984
01:01:44,500 --> 01:01:49,100
But any and then he Cam and the
bedroom, who does that?
985
01:01:49,100 --> 01:01:52,800
I'm telling you somebody was
cheating before before they got
986
01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:55,800
you know, off by the superflu.
Somebody was cheating.
987
01:01:55,900 --> 01:01:58,100
They was trying to catch
somebody bringing somebody to
988
01:01:58,100 --> 01:02:02,000
the bedroom.
That's what it was because other
989
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:04,100
than that, you're right.
I don't see why they would have
990
01:02:04,100 --> 01:02:05,700
that in there.
Unless it was one of those
991
01:02:05,700 --> 01:02:08,500
things where they have the nanny
camera.
992
01:02:08,700 --> 01:02:11,500
They keep it in the room.
And then when they, you know,
993
01:02:11,500 --> 01:02:14,500
when they go out or when they
have the babysitter, they put
994
01:02:14,500 --> 01:02:17,000
they put the bed there before
the babysitter gets there.
995
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:18,800
But that seems like too much
work.
996
01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:22,300
It's too much work.
So you're doing it either.
997
01:02:22,300 --> 01:02:25,100
Mental heavy lifting for the
show.
998
01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:28,900
It seems we've been doing that
since the first episode.
999
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,400
Yeah.
Yes, it's a lot of work.
1000
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:34,500
This shows a lot of work.
Okay, so let's talk about
1001
01:02:34,500 --> 01:02:38,600
Nadine.
So Nadine at the beginning of
1002
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:43,200
the episode, when we first see
her, she's having a dream.
1003
01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:45,900
It's like night time.
She's sleeping Joe sleeping.
1004
01:02:46,100 --> 01:02:51,300
She's having a dream and this
dream, and I won't even call it
1005
01:02:51,300 --> 01:02:55,100
a flashback, but it's actually
the only flashback we get in
1006
01:02:55,100 --> 01:02:58,900
this episode, which is great,
because we're not doing a whole
1007
01:02:58,900 --> 01:03:02,100
bunch of whiplash mess going
back and forth, back and forth,
1008
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:05,500
but she's having a dream, and
it's basically her.
1009
01:03:05,700 --> 01:03:09,400
Her and Larry kind of making out
or kissing some.
1010
01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:13,800
I'm guessing they almost hooked
up at some point on the road and
1011
01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:18,400
then knowing what I know about
Larry, that might be true.
1012
01:03:20,500 --> 01:03:22,600
That might be true.
And, you know, if you think
1013
01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:25,700
about it, when they first got to
Boulder and they went to the
1014
01:03:25,700 --> 01:03:28,900
house, he asked her, he said, is
this what you want?
1015
01:03:28,900 --> 01:03:30,900
He said I can crash down on the
couch.
1016
01:03:30,900 --> 01:03:33,200
It wouldn't, it wouldn't have to
mean anything.
1017
01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:35,500
So obviously at some point,
something there.
1018
01:03:35,700 --> 01:03:39,900
Happen and then it kind of
fizzled off, probably because of
1019
01:03:39,900 --> 01:03:44,500
her, you know what to say for
yourself for flag.
1020
01:03:44,700 --> 01:03:49,500
But while she's having this
dream flat comes to her and in
1021
01:03:49,500 --> 01:03:52,800
her dream and he says, oh the
old mother's magic is wearing
1022
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:56,000
off, because I can come to you
now, you know, and I can see
1023
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,600
things now, so he comes to her
in the dream and they have a
1024
01:03:59,607 --> 01:04:03,500
conversation because she, he
said something about oh, you
1025
01:04:03,500 --> 01:04:05,200
were dreaming about your little
toy.
1026
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:09,500
You You know, talking about
Larry and she makes a comment
1027
01:04:09,500 --> 01:04:12,000
about, I don't understand.
Why, why do you care?
1028
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:14,400
You gave me the herald and he
was like, hold up.
1029
01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:17,700
I ain't give you the nobody.
You know, he makes that very
1030
01:04:17,700 --> 01:04:21,900
clear but then he also confirmed
something we discussed in the
1031
01:04:21,900 --> 01:04:26,400
last episode.
He basically tells her you
1032
01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:32,300
belong to me, you have, since I
found you 12 years old years
1033
01:04:32,300 --> 01:04:34,000
old.
I thought about you when I saw
1034
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:37,000
that.
Go, here we go.
1035
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:42,500
Wasn't I, your friend wasn't I
there for you?
1036
01:04:43,300 --> 01:04:45,700
Do we not have this conversation
when we talked about this?
1037
01:04:45,700 --> 01:04:51,300
The last show that we did about
him coming to her as a child as
1038
01:04:51,300 --> 01:04:54,700
opposed to in the books.
When she's a little bit older is
1039
01:04:54,700 --> 01:04:59,800
this and then for it to be to be
confirmed, right here.
1040
01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:06,100
I was just like and and I was
thinking about it and even if We
1041
01:05:06,500 --> 01:05:10,900
instead of assuming even worse,
we can do at best.
1042
01:05:10,900 --> 01:05:16,500
He was just grooming her.
But even grooming her at 12:00
1043
01:05:16,500 --> 01:05:21,500
is kind of disgusting.
Terrible grooming, her to be
1044
01:05:21,500 --> 01:05:30,400
your bride when she comes of age
as like, Terrible this step
1045
01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:33,800
again, real life example, but I
don't want to do that.
1046
01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:38,700
But yeah, that is, but that is
even even being a change for her
1047
01:05:38,700 --> 01:05:42,500
being in college.
It's like why we know that he's
1048
01:05:42,900 --> 01:05:44,300
we do.
I'm not going to rehash, we
1049
01:05:44,300 --> 01:05:48,100
talked about before but we know
that he's a terrible evil
1050
01:05:48,100 --> 01:05:50,500
person.
We know that he's evil, you
1051
01:05:50,500 --> 01:05:54,000
don't have to make her 12 to
reiterate the point, right?
1052
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:57,100
We know that he has sway in
influence over people.
1053
01:05:57,400 --> 01:06:02,200
So coming to her in college,
would have been just as
1054
01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:07,100
effective a more seamless creepy
coming to her at 12:00.
1055
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:09,800
Mhm.
It would have made more sense.
1056
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:12,100
She's saving herself for the
perfect person.
1057
01:06:12,300 --> 01:06:14,800
Right?
And he comes to her and college
1058
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:18,500
and he's his perfect person, and
it would also go along with her
1059
01:06:19,100 --> 01:06:22,000
already.
Being sort of, I don't want
1060
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:25,700
this, use were bad, but you
could've at least because of me,
1061
01:06:25,700 --> 01:06:28,900
like, well she was going to be
on his side.
1062
01:06:28,900 --> 01:06:31,200
Anyway.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, I don't
1063
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:32,700
know.
Cuz I'm trying to remember, I
1064
01:06:32,700 --> 01:06:34,400
think the way it was in the
books.
1065
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:38,300
I think when she was younger and
she was in position.
1066
01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:41,300
Is where she might have had sex
like as a teenager, whatever.
1067
01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:45,400
I don't think it was necessarily
him that came to her.
1068
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:48,600
But I think she said something
about she always had a feeling
1069
01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:50,500
that this was not what she was
supposed to do.
1070
01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:53,200
She was supposed to be saving
herself for something again.
1071
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:57,900
I haven't read the book in like
years so I don't remember but I
1072
01:06:57,900 --> 01:07:01,300
don't remember it being, it
wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't
1073
01:07:01,300 --> 01:07:02,600
him?
Because he didn't come there
1074
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:07,900
until she was in college.
So but anyway, so this kind of
1075
01:07:07,900 --> 01:07:10,000
leads.
To a conversation, she has later
1076
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:12,400
on.
So she's looking for Joe.
1077
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:14,900
She's trying to give him some
lunch and he's not in the house.
1078
01:07:14,900 --> 01:07:18,600
So she goes to look for him and
she finds him at mother
1079
01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:22,300
Abigail's house and he's sitting
there and he's playing the piano
1080
01:07:22,900 --> 01:07:26,200
and you know, she fusses at him
for leaving without telling her
1081
01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:27,800
and she's like even some other
Abigail's.
1082
01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:30,800
You can't come here and mother
Abigail is like, oh, you know,
1083
01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:32,000
we were just you know, I'm
sorry.
1084
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:33,600
We were just having a
conversation.
1085
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:36,400
She's like he talked to you and
she was like, well, there's
1086
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:41,400
talking and there's talking So
this is one thing I do want to
1087
01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:44,600
say, as far as Jose character,
you know, I know we've mentioned
1088
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:48,700
before the fact that he's
nonverbal right now and we've
1089
01:07:48,700 --> 01:07:54,100
made, we've made assumptions
that he is autistic.
1090
01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:58,100
I don't think he's actually
autistic just going by the
1091
01:07:58,100 --> 01:08:02,500
things that mother Abigail says,
I think he's just traumatized
1092
01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:06,400
and his nonverbal in this is a
symptom of PTSD.
1093
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:10,200
You know, she said something
about You know because Nadine
1094
01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:12,800
says, is there anything that I
shouldn't, you know, did he say
1095
01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:14,900
anything?
I should know like what his real
1096
01:08:14,900 --> 01:08:18,500
name is and mother Abigail says
no, we didn't get that far.
1097
01:08:18,500 --> 01:08:22,100
She said but you know, there's
some you know, there's some
1098
01:08:22,100 --> 01:08:26,700
things a child should not see,
you know, he's been through some
1099
01:08:26,700 --> 01:08:29,500
things, a child should not have
to go through and that's what
1100
01:08:29,500 --> 01:08:32,300
he's seeing some things that no
child should say.
1101
01:08:32,700 --> 01:08:36,300
Yeah.
Yeah, so that makes me think
1102
01:08:36,300 --> 01:08:39,500
that he is.
I know that he's just
1103
01:08:39,500 --> 01:08:43,200
traumatized but obviously we
have some clues about him.
1104
01:08:43,300 --> 01:08:48,300
We know he's good at spotting
people who are not necessarily
1105
01:08:48,300 --> 01:08:53,000
good, because he has this thing
about Harold, you know, and that
1106
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:55,500
could have something to do with
whatever it was that he
1107
01:08:55,500 --> 01:08:58,600
witnessed while he was out on
his own, before Nadine found
1108
01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:00,500
him.
We know that he's musically
1109
01:09:00,500 --> 01:09:04,700
inclined because he picked up a
guitar and played something back
1110
01:09:04,700 --> 01:09:08,200
to Larry perfectly when Nadine
finds him that much.
1111
01:09:08,300 --> 01:09:11,800
ER Abigail's, he's playing the
piano and he's playing like he's
1112
01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:14,399
played before.
So that gives us a little bit
1113
01:09:14,399 --> 01:09:19,899
more of a clue to his character.
But you know, Nathan and and
1114
01:09:19,899 --> 01:09:23,300
mother Abigail have a
conversation and the
1115
01:09:23,300 --> 01:09:28,100
conversation is about choice and
mother Abigail.
1116
01:09:28,700 --> 01:09:31,600
I think she kind of lets Nadine
know.
1117
01:09:32,399 --> 01:09:37,200
That she knows about flag
without letting her know that,
1118
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:40,899
you know, she basically says,
you know, we all have a choice
1119
01:09:40,899 --> 01:09:44,899
until we don't, you know, she
was like, everybody has a choice
1120
01:09:44,899 --> 01:09:47,899
to do what they want to do, to
be who they want to be.
1121
01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:51,300
Yeah, because mother Abigail
with know, if whether or not she
1122
01:09:51,300 --> 01:09:56,700
had been in their dreams.
Exactly, right, so, and that
1123
01:09:56,700 --> 01:09:59,700
that's mother.
I think instead of her calling
1124
01:09:59,700 --> 01:10:04,100
her out on that mother abbess.
Gail is taking that to mean that
1125
01:10:04,100 --> 01:10:08,100
she chose to be there and they
got on that conversation because
1126
01:10:08,500 --> 01:10:12,600
mother Abigail comments about
how she cares about Joe and how
1127
01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:14,300
she takes care of them.
And she's like, well, I really
1128
01:10:14,300 --> 01:10:15,600
didn't have a choice.
Did I?
1129
01:10:15,700 --> 01:10:18,000
And she was like, everybody
always has a choice.
1130
01:10:18,300 --> 01:10:21,300
She said, you made a choice to
take care of him.
1131
01:10:21,300 --> 01:10:25,600
You made a choice to stick with
him and you guys take care of
1132
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:27,800
each other and it's a beautiful
thing and you know, she's
1133
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:31,500
basically I think at this point
trying to give Nadine some hope
1134
01:10:31,500 --> 01:10:35,600
that Look, your life doesn't
have to go down this path that
1135
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:38,500
you are on.
You can make a choice to change
1136
01:10:38,500 --> 01:10:42,700
and because of that Nadine finds
herself right after Larry gets
1137
01:10:42,700 --> 01:10:47,400
the call from friend to go to
Harold's house as he's walking
1138
01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:50,500
out the door and they deem is,
you know, coming to his doorstep
1139
01:10:50,700 --> 01:10:55,200
and she's basically throwing
herself at him like she wants
1140
01:10:55,200 --> 01:11:00,700
him to have sex with her and
he's a little confused because
1141
01:11:00,700 --> 01:11:02,500
he was like, you didn't want
Want this before.
1142
01:11:02,500 --> 01:11:04,400
Like what's what happened?
What's going on?
1143
01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:08,700
And she's like, you know, she
very plainly explicitly I need
1144
01:11:08,700 --> 01:11:11,600
you to fuck me.
He was like, this is not how you
1145
01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:14,800
usually talk.
This is not you what's going on
1146
01:11:15,100 --> 01:11:18,900
and you know, he makes it a
point to say I don't want to do
1147
01:11:18,900 --> 01:11:20,800
this and you have regrets in the
morning.
1148
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:22,700
I don't want, you know, I don't
want this to be.
1149
01:11:22,700 --> 01:11:24,100
I don't want to take advantage
of you.
1150
01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:27,500
What's going on.
Tell me he Jen, you can tell he
1151
01:11:27,500 --> 01:11:31,500
genuinely cares for her.
But she's doing this out of
1152
01:11:31,500 --> 01:11:35,000
desperation like she feels like
if she has sex with Larry that's
1153
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:38,600
going to break whatever whole
random flag has on her and this
1154
01:11:38,600 --> 01:11:44,600
is the first time that we see
that she seems scared, you know,
1155
01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:49,000
or is trying to change her fate.
And she basically says to him,
1156
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:51,000
she was like, this is the only
way.
1157
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:52,700
This is the only way he'll let
me go.
1158
01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:56,400
And Larry again is confused.
He's like who?
1159
01:11:56,600 --> 01:11:59,300
And then of course at the end of
the episode, when he's in
1160
01:11:59,300 --> 01:12:02,700
Harold's house.
These mating shirt, he's going
1161
01:12:02,700 --> 01:12:04,800
to automate.
He's going to think is Harold.
1162
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:08,600
Mmm, you know, that's about it.
That's about to become an issue
1163
01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:12,500
because he's going to think that
he is forcing Nadine to stay
1164
01:12:12,500 --> 01:12:15,100
with him or something, or do
something.
1165
01:12:15,900 --> 01:12:17,800
So.
And that's probably what's going
1166
01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:21,600
to be kind of the match that
that starts.
1167
01:12:22,700 --> 01:12:26,400
You know, Harold's plan in
Boulder.
1168
01:12:26,700 --> 01:12:30,000
Okay, so, I just wanted to say a
couple of things about Larry
1169
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:35,200
real quick.
So Larry II want to give Larry a
1170
01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:37,700
little bit of crazy.
I know he was really trying not
1171
01:12:37,700 --> 01:12:40,500
to do anything because he had
something else he needed to do.
1172
01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:44,400
Because this was, when he was on
his way out to go break into her
1173
01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:49,700
parents house, because I would
like to think that if he didn't
1174
01:12:49,700 --> 01:12:54,600
have that task before him.
He would have told her, you know
1175
01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:56,600
what, I'm not going to do that
with you right now.
1176
01:12:56,700 --> 01:13:00,200
But if you come in, you can sit
down and we can talk about it
1177
01:13:00,700 --> 01:13:04,600
because I think that's what she
really needed at that moment.
1178
01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:09,200
I mean, I know where she thought
she wanted, but I think knowing
1179
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:11,900
Larry and knowing how he
normally would be, he normally
1180
01:13:11,900 --> 01:13:13,400
probably say, you know, what
coming here.
1181
01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:16,900
Let's talk about this and maybe
one thing was late to another,
1182
01:13:17,100 --> 01:13:19,400
who knows?
But at least I like to think
1183
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:23,100
that he would have.
He would have at least Tried to
1184
01:13:23,100 --> 01:13:26,100
talk to her and figure out
what's going on with it, because
1185
01:13:26,100 --> 01:13:28,700
obviously something is terribly
wrong.
1186
01:13:28,700 --> 01:13:31,500
And then she also said to him,
you are the only person in the
1187
01:13:31,500 --> 01:13:32,400
world.
I trust you.
1188
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:35,700
I trust.
So yeah, so then he started out
1189
01:13:35,700 --> 01:13:37,600
the conversation with what is
this?
1190
01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:39,700
Not something that wait till
tomorrow because I got something
1191
01:13:39,700 --> 01:13:43,400
else, I need to do, you know
that that is not going to.
1192
01:13:43,500 --> 01:13:46,000
It's not going to help the
situation at all.
1193
01:13:46,100 --> 01:13:49,100
Right, but he tried to recover
the say, you know, this is not
1194
01:13:49,100 --> 01:13:52,100
true.
You know, this this is what is
1195
01:13:52,100 --> 01:13:53,900
going.
All that you did ask her that,
1196
01:13:53,900 --> 01:13:56,200
but I really think he would have
a sort of come in and sit down
1197
01:13:56,200 --> 01:14:01,200
and talk talk about it because
she, she seemed like that there
1198
01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:04,400
was something really going on.
He seems to really care about
1199
01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:05,400
her.
Yeah, he does.
1200
01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:09,800
And, to be honest with you.
He almost seems sort of out of
1201
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:15,800
character for him because it is
almost as if, I think he would
1202
01:14:15,800 --> 01:14:18,900
have rather have talked to her,
then go break into Harold's
1203
01:14:18,900 --> 01:14:19,500
house.
Yeah.
1204
01:14:19,500 --> 01:14:22,300
Definitely.
I think, I really do think that.
1205
01:14:22,400 --> 01:14:26,800
It's sort of that sort of those
that and him breaking into the
1206
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:30,700
house of the two things that
kind of put me off this episode.
1207
01:14:30,700 --> 01:14:35,400
It's like Him not actually
really talking to her.
1208
01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:38,900
This person that you spent time
with on the road that just said,
1209
01:14:38,900 --> 01:14:41,600
she trusts him.
That is basically saying she
1210
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:45,200
needs to get away from somebody
and he doesn't take the time out
1211
01:14:45,200 --> 01:14:48,800
to find out who it is.
So he go breaking someone's
1212
01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:54,500
house then just that kind of
bothered me and you know, there
1213
01:14:54,500 --> 01:14:56,800
are a lot of things to like
about this episode with there
1214
01:14:56,800 --> 01:15:05,900
are more things to dislike and
and I hate to see, you know, the
1215
01:15:05,900 --> 01:15:10,200
person who lives with me, not
really related to me by marriage
1216
01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:18,700
while we watch the show because
he listens to us in the
1217
01:15:18,700 --> 01:15:20,600
background.
It's like, you don't like the
1218
01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:22,700
show.
So why are we wasting our time?
1219
01:15:22,900 --> 01:15:36,000
That's not the point?
Had enough of DragonCon animals.
1220
01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:40,600
All this has been, somebody, she
knows knows.
1221
01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:44,300
That's her.
We still we're going to watch it
1222
01:15:44,300 --> 01:15:47,000
because on some level, it is
entertainment.
1223
01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:50,900
There is some value there as
entertainment.
1224
01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:54,600
It can be bad and entertainment,
but it's entertainment.
1225
01:15:54,700 --> 01:15:57,900
Nonetheless.
I'm a fan of the stand.
1226
01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:01,500
I can sit there and say there's
some things I don't like about
1227
01:16:01,500 --> 01:16:03,800
it.
If you really pay attention like
1228
01:16:03,800 --> 01:16:07,200
our listeners are doing,
hopefully they can hear as point
1229
01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:11,700
out things that we like, we do
that, but we also point out that
1230
01:16:11,700 --> 01:16:16,500
he's better bad and there's a
lot of bad about this and there
1231
01:16:16,500 --> 01:16:21,800
is good, but the good is enough
to keep me watching it, you
1232
01:16:21,800 --> 01:16:24,500
know, a lot of these people we
talked about this early either
1233
01:16:24,500 --> 01:16:29,100
the characters, they get enough
to keep us watching it, but the
1234
01:16:29,100 --> 01:16:32,100
Larry thing, I'm like hot and
cold with his life.
1235
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:35,200
One hand.
He's like the best can see I've
1236
01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:38,800
got in the show and then the
other hand, y'all do some stupid
1237
01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:39,700
myths.
Like this.
1238
01:16:39,900 --> 01:16:44,800
That's completely turns me off.
Yeah, you know, and I like I'm
1239
01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:47,300
going to repeat this because I
want everyone to hear this.
1240
01:16:47,900 --> 01:16:51,800
I really think that the
character that we have known up
1241
01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:56,500
until this episode would have,
had her come in and talk to her,
1242
01:16:56,500 --> 01:16:59,700
find out what's going on with
her because that, that is the
1243
01:16:59,708 --> 01:17:02,700
kind of person he was because he
wouldn't have let It really kill
1244
01:17:02,700 --> 01:17:07,000
herself if he was awake.
No, he was wrong.
1245
01:17:07,000 --> 01:17:09,300
He was wrong for leaving her but
that was about
1246
01:17:09,300 --> 01:17:13,200
self-preservation.
But if he saw her as desperate
1247
01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:16,800
as she was, maybe he didn't
really notice it.
1248
01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,100
But if he had known that, it's
what she was going to do.
1249
01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:20,800
He would have talked to him like
no.
1250
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:24,800
No, we're in this together.
We're going to figure this out
1251
01:17:25,500 --> 01:17:30,600
because you wouldn't.
Yeah, he's a same person who
1252
01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:35,700
took his mother out of the
Hospital put her in his bed and
1253
01:17:35,700 --> 01:17:40,700
sat there with her, as she died,
right, you know, the same person
1254
01:17:40,900 --> 01:17:44,300
that went outside to the guy
that wanted to kill him and
1255
01:17:44,300 --> 01:17:46,600
tried to help him find Comfort,
right?
1256
01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:48,200
Yeah.
That's who that is.
1257
01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:52,100
Who Larry is Larry is not the
guy who's going to blow off the
1258
01:17:52,100 --> 01:17:54,300
friend of his who's in
desperation mode.
1259
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:56,400
So you can go break into
somebody's house.
1260
01:17:59,100 --> 01:18:03,000
And we're especially not after
going through what he went
1261
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:05,900
through with Rita.
Yeah waking up to find out.
1262
01:18:05,900 --> 01:18:10,000
She killed herself.
I mean you can see Nadine was
1263
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:14,900
desperate at this point, you
know, the fact that she was
1264
01:18:14,900 --> 01:18:17,600
trying to get you to do.
The one thing that she was like
1265
01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:20,900
that she had told you before she
couldn't do.
1266
01:18:22,100 --> 01:18:28,200
Nobody makes that kind of
turnaround a list are scared or,
1267
01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:33,100
unless they're being pressured,
and she look like, like, when
1268
01:18:33,100 --> 01:18:35,800
she walked in his house.
She looked like something the
1269
01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:41,300
cat had drugged, and she was,
she was her hair was stringy.
1270
01:18:41,500 --> 01:18:45,000
She was shaking.
She was, she just looked
1271
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:48,200
horrible.
She looked like somebody with
1272
01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:52,200
the weight of the world on her
shoulders and It was basically
1273
01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:54,300
that she was, like, I have a
choice.
1274
01:18:54,500 --> 01:18:57,700
I can change my fate if I do
this one thing.
1275
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:00,800
I can be free.
Hmm.
1276
01:19:01,100 --> 01:19:04,500
But it's like now and I mean,
did you okay?
1277
01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:10,000
And I will say this again, don't
then don't particularly care for
1278
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:15,800
her but ever heard, right?
But in this and don't usually
1279
01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:19,600
care for her acting.
But in this episode, especially
1280
01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:24,400
that scene, I felt for her like
when she turned around and
1281
01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:27,300
walked out of Larry's house and
she was like, I'll be fine.
1282
01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:32,100
I mean just Monotone voice.
She was walking like a zombie.
1283
01:19:32,100 --> 01:19:37,100
Like she had no.
It was, it was heartbreaking to
1284
01:19:37,100 --> 01:19:41,500
watch her, walk out that door
knowing what that, what fate,
1285
01:19:41,500 --> 01:19:46,700
that was going to resign her to.
Yeah, that was a really, really
1286
01:19:46,700 --> 01:19:50,700
good piece of acting that she
did and I've seen it really was.
1287
01:19:50,900 --> 01:19:55,400
It was the first time that she's
sort of summon that Loris
1288
01:19:55,400 --> 01:19:57,600
Andrea.
San Giacomo.
1289
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,200
It was such a great Nadine in
the original.
1290
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:06,700
It was like, this was the first
time I actually saw Solve the
1291
01:20:06,700 --> 01:20:10,700
character of me being, like, in
all her glory, you know, that
1292
01:20:10,700 --> 01:20:17,300
pain that she has and that, that
desperation that she has fy'y
1293
01:20:17,300 --> 01:20:20,200
psychic.
Finally saw what I was looking
1294
01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:24,300
for, in a character and see how
I give her props for that.
1295
01:20:24,300 --> 01:20:25,600
That was really good.
Yeah.
1296
01:20:26,700 --> 01:20:29,900
She was good in that.
I know you like.
1297
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:35,600
But it's Amber Heard though.
So let's get the one care.
1298
01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:38,900
So we haven't really talked much
about this episode.
1299
01:20:38,900 --> 01:20:41,700
Next mother Abigail.
So we did mention her a little
1300
01:20:41,700 --> 01:20:45,100
bit earlier because she has
found out that they sent spies
1301
01:20:45,100 --> 01:20:50,400
and she is like whoo.
She was like, did you feel it?
1302
01:20:50,700 --> 01:20:54,700
Haha.
Did you feel when she was
1303
01:20:54,700 --> 01:20:58,200
fussing at Nick like that poor
baby.
1304
01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:01,700
He was just sitting there like,
with his head hung, like he
1305
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:06,600
didn't do nothing.
You can say, And there's
1306
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:08,100
nothing.
I mean, literally, there's
1307
01:21:08,100 --> 01:21:09,900
nothing.
He can say, there's nothing he
1308
01:21:09,900 --> 01:21:12,600
can do.
When, when the old folks talking
1309
01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:16,400
about having your ears boxed.
He was asking boxes.
1310
01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:27,100
Like, that's what that means is
by seeing his, you know,
1311
01:21:27,100 --> 01:21:29,600
whatever, I've done to offend
you.
1312
01:21:29,900 --> 01:21:33,000
Please give me, you know, please
give me the means to atone for
1313
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:34,400
a.
Tell me what you would have me.
1314
01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:37,100
Do you know?
Because she's taking this is her
1315
01:21:37,100 --> 01:21:40,100
responsibility as her
responsibilities.
1316
01:21:40,100 --> 01:21:44,300
Like, they're supposed to be
following her and doing what he
1317
01:21:44,300 --> 01:21:47,500
is commanding, and they've done
something behind her back.
1318
01:21:47,500 --> 01:21:49,400
They've done something against
her wishes.
1319
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:53,900
So now she feels like she has to
be the one to repent for it and
1320
01:21:53,900 --> 01:21:57,200
as she's doing this praying, the
wolf comes to her.
1321
01:21:57,600 --> 01:22:00,800
Now, I would say that that wolf
kind of scared me a little bit.
1322
01:22:01,200 --> 01:22:03,400
He was just sitting there.
He's just growling and she's
1323
01:22:03,400 --> 01:22:08,500
just like and and then the next
thing we know, ray goes to her
1324
01:22:08,500 --> 01:22:12,000
house and there's a note on the
door and she's basically telling
1325
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:16,800
them that she's left.
Don't come looking for her and
1326
01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:21,600
it's just kind of like wait a
mother, a go Andrei.
1327
01:22:21,900 --> 01:22:24,200
Poor thing.
She's just like screaming in the
1328
01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:27,700
streets for her and you know,
she's calling on the radio.
1329
01:22:27,700 --> 01:22:29,900
Hey, do you have eyes on mother
Abigail?
1330
01:22:30,300 --> 01:22:32,500
Hey, cendre up to her house to
look for.
1331
01:22:32,500 --> 01:22:34,500
She was like damn it.
I am ready.
1332
01:22:36,300 --> 01:22:41,400
You know and of course Stewart
and Franny here this while
1333
01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:44,100
they're making out in the
bedroom and hair with his
1334
01:22:44,100 --> 01:22:46,300
creepily watching on the nanny
cam.
1335
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:50,700
And you know, he hears that
mother Abigail is missing and
1336
01:22:50,700 --> 01:22:53,800
then he has this really creepy
smile on his face and then it
1337
01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:59,400
cuts to black but that smile at
the end. he looked hella creepy
1338
01:22:59,500 --> 01:23:07,100
like, This do here.
He does, I did not really care
1339
01:23:07,100 --> 01:23:10,400
for him too much at the
beginning because I felt like
1340
01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:13,700
Carol was supposed to be a more
nuanced character.
1341
01:23:13,700 --> 01:23:18,700
He was supposed to be kind of
awkward from the beginning and
1342
01:23:18,700 --> 01:23:23,600
then kind of gradually going
into that psychopath phase.
1343
01:23:23,600 --> 01:23:27,900
And this guy has been giving me
psycho vibes from the beginning
1344
01:23:27,900 --> 01:23:30,700
from the beginning.
But now at this point in the
1345
01:23:30,700 --> 01:23:34,800
story, it works like this is
where Harold is To be right now,
1346
01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:37,700
especially you just found out
that, you know, the girl that
1347
01:23:37,700 --> 01:23:42,000
you love, she basically set you
up so that somebody can spying
1348
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:45,200
your house and it's just getting
to the point now where he's
1349
01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:47,600
like, okay, you know what?
I'm about to kill this bitch and
1350
01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:50,400
this is what these are the Vibes
that I'm getting from him now
1351
01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:55,800
and it's appropriate now, so I'm
feeling Harold louder as a
1352
01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:58,400
character.
Now this is where we're supposed
1353
01:23:58,400 --> 01:23:59,800
to be with him.
Yeah.
1354
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:03,700
So, you know, like you said
there was some good things about
1355
01:24:03,700 --> 01:24:06,200
the f.
Pisode there was not good
1356
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:10,100
things.
Again the and the best wax at
1357
01:24:10,100 --> 01:24:14,200
the decimation of Dana and
Friends characters in this
1358
01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:17,600
episode.
It's just that that's just
1359
01:24:19,400 --> 01:24:21,700
that's just going to be that's
going to be the one of the big
1360
01:24:21,700 --> 01:24:24,400
things that bothers me about
this series because those two
1361
01:24:24,400 --> 01:24:28,400
characters in these two settings
should have been so much more
1362
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:31,000
than they were.
Dana is specially friend.
1363
01:24:31,000 --> 01:24:36,500
I can I can get especially if
Fran is Not I can put her
1364
01:24:36,500 --> 01:24:41,700
behavior down as to the whole
she's not used to being fake
1365
01:24:41,900 --> 01:24:45,200
type thing or she's not used to
being you know, she's not used
1366
01:24:45,200 --> 01:24:48,800
to subterfuge or you know trying
to do that kind of thing.
1367
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:52,400
So I can I can kind of sort of
say I still like the way it came
1368
01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:54,500
off but I can kind of sort of
see it.
1369
01:24:54,500 --> 01:24:58,800
Dana just character.
Assassination is just yeah, just
1370
01:24:59,700 --> 01:25:02,700
well.
Yeah, but I mean well we don't
1371
01:25:02,700 --> 01:25:03,900
have to worry about your
character.
1372
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:07,300
Anymore.
So, sees sees gone, you know, we
1373
01:25:07,308 --> 01:25:10,800
don't have to worry about that.
At least she died in a nice
1374
01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:12,500
outfit.
She did.
1375
01:25:12,500 --> 01:25:15,500
She was looking fly.
I can fly.
1376
01:25:17,100 --> 01:25:20,500
But I do want to talk about one
of the great things about this.
1377
01:25:20,500 --> 01:25:24,000
Episode is there was no time
jumps none.
1378
01:25:24,300 --> 01:25:27,000
There were no times up none.
Absolutely none.
1379
01:25:27,100 --> 01:25:30,500
No time job.
So that that that lip lash.
1380
01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:33,900
Yeah, no times.
It's no hour ago.
1381
01:25:34,100 --> 01:25:39,300
Time jobs, right?
Um, but but I will say, you
1382
01:25:39,300 --> 01:25:43,400
know, again speaking with the
person who gives me I'm related
1383
01:25:43,400 --> 01:25:48,700
to by marriage.
She told me, you know, we had a
1384
01:25:48,700 --> 01:25:52,500
discussion about the time jumps
and and she's like because we're
1385
01:25:52,500 --> 01:25:55,800
watching American Gods plug for
upcoming show.
1386
01:25:55,800 --> 01:25:57,200
We're going to be talking about
American Gods.
1387
01:25:57,800 --> 01:26:03,800
So American Gods, they also do
flashbacks and I was trying to
1388
01:26:03,800 --> 01:26:07,900
say that the flashbacks,
American Gods arm, Like
1389
01:26:08,300 --> 01:26:10,900
character filler.
They give you insight into the
1390
01:26:10,900 --> 01:26:14,500
characters.
And she's like, nobody does the
1391
01:26:14,508 --> 01:26:17,400
same thing, is tells you how the
characters ended up where they
1392
01:26:17,400 --> 01:26:20,200
are now.
I'm like, well, sort of but not
1393
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:22,600
really like we don't really
know.
1394
01:26:23,300 --> 01:26:26,400
They're not telling us where the
characters, how the characters
1395
01:26:26,400 --> 01:26:30,000
that telling a separate story of
how, the carriage is all ended
1396
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:35,100
up in one place, giving us
information about the characters
1397
01:26:35,100 --> 01:26:37,000
like they given us a history
lesson.
1398
01:26:37,000 --> 01:26:41,700
Yeah, like how they came to be
not how the ended up hooking up
1399
01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:45,700
with.
Z and even when they do give us
1400
01:26:45,700 --> 01:26:50,300
flashbacks, like if you think
about last season season 2, we
1401
01:26:50,300 --> 01:26:54,700
did get some flashbacks from
like when Shadow moon was
1402
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:59,900
younger and with his mother, but
the way that they do, their
1403
01:26:59,900 --> 01:27:04,800
flashbacks makes sense within
the confines of this kind of
1404
01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:07,600
sponsor, the story follows,
right?
1405
01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:11,700
It's a flow to it.
It's not like it's not something
1406
01:27:11,700 --> 01:27:14,000
that's so jarring.
I mean that you have to sit
1407
01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:17,600
there and look like what the
hell just happened, you know?
1408
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:24,100
Yeah, and I was also saying that
they weren't telling a separate
1409
01:27:24,100 --> 01:27:27,900
story.
Like the reason why the
1410
01:27:27,900 --> 01:27:32,500
flashbacks in to me understand
this withdrawing is that they
1411
01:27:32,500 --> 01:27:38,200
are following a different plot
than the plot of what we're
1412
01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:40,000
supposed to be watching
currently.
1413
01:27:40,200 --> 01:27:44,600
Like it's two separate Stories
being Told about to serpent
1414
01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:50,100
times and and because your
prison story is structured the
1415
01:27:50,100 --> 01:27:55,000
same way as a flashback stories.
Like we're seeing different
1416
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:57,700
characters, different points in
time.
1417
01:27:58,000 --> 01:28:00,000
All this journey to get to
Boulder.
1418
01:28:00,300 --> 01:28:04,400
We're seeing the same characters
in the prison point in time in
1419
01:28:04,400 --> 01:28:09,300
Boulder if the same story.
But in two different times and
1420
01:28:09,300 --> 01:28:12,000
sometimes in three cuz you'll
sometimes the three kids you
1421
01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:22,000
get. - exactly more like lost if
everyone can can bear with me
1422
01:28:22,000 --> 01:28:25,000
for a second.
If you go back to Los lost, sort
1423
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:28,400
of did the same thing with their
flashbacks.
1424
01:28:28,400 --> 01:28:30,100
It was sort of a blend of the
two.
1425
01:28:30,100 --> 01:28:32,800
They were giving information
about the characters, but they
1426
01:28:32,800 --> 01:28:35,200
were also showing you have the
characters ended up.
1427
01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:36,700
There were times.
They were showing you how the
1428
01:28:36,700 --> 01:28:37,800
characters ended up on the
island.
1429
01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:42,000
And they were showing you how
characters met each other before
1430
01:28:42,008 --> 01:28:46,700
they got to the That was more,
like, what we get in the stand,
1431
01:28:46,700 --> 01:28:52,100
but they did it so much more
effectively and lost because
1432
01:28:52,100 --> 01:28:55,300
they were also giving you
details and information about
1433
01:28:55,300 --> 01:28:58,300
the characters.
And a lot of times the stuff
1434
01:28:58,300 --> 01:29:02,100
that was in the past was
relevant, was important to the
1435
01:29:02,100 --> 01:29:03,200
story.
They were telling in the
1436
01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:08,200
episode.
I wasn't getting that really in
1437
01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:12,000
the stand.
It seems like they filmed the
1438
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:15,800
season.
In episode 1 through 8, and then
1439
01:29:15,800 --> 01:29:19,100
they chopped it up and it is
what it felt.
1440
01:29:19,100 --> 01:29:20,500
Like.
That's what it feels like.
1441
01:29:20,500 --> 01:29:25,000
Because now we're at the
midpoint of so 5 where we don't
1442
01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:30,200
get any, because of this point.
Everyone is there, you know, we
1443
01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:35,600
had assumed that they were show
us how Vegas came to because I
1444
01:29:35,600 --> 01:29:38,700
thought maybe they were just
start with Vegas, which they
1445
01:29:38,700 --> 01:29:41,600
did.
And that the next two or three
1446
01:29:41,600 --> 01:29:45,700
episodes will be about Vegas
with flashbacks on how all these
1447
01:29:45,700 --> 01:29:50,100
people ended up there.
I mean they feel they go there
1448
01:29:50,400 --> 01:29:52,800
but it doesn't seem like that's
going to be the case.
1449
01:29:52,900 --> 01:29:57,500
It doesn't.
Yeah, honestly with the white
1450
01:29:57,500 --> 01:30:00,200
they introduced New Vegas in
this episode.
1451
01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:04,900
I don't think we need it because
we pretty much can tell that
1452
01:30:04,900 --> 01:30:07,000
most of these people who are
there.
1453
01:30:07,500 --> 01:30:10,700
They are there.
Because I mean he even said it
1454
01:30:10,700 --> 01:30:13,700
in his speech.
He said, you know, The the
1455
01:30:13,700 --> 01:30:17,700
people of the old world, they
tried to tell you that sex was
1456
01:30:17,700 --> 01:30:22,900
bad, that that violence was bad.
And he was like, and it's not
1457
01:30:22,900 --> 01:30:25,200
and those are the people that
are there with him.
1458
01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:29,600
The people who Revel in this?
I mean, when Dana was brought
1459
01:30:29,600 --> 01:30:34,500
out to the floor to, you know,
with Lloyd and Julie to see
1460
01:30:34,500 --> 01:30:37,000
everything.
I mean, there's a full-fledged
1461
01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:42,400
orgy going on, everywhere in the
hotel every time you see them
1462
01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:45,000
going.
Going down the elevator.
1463
01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:47,400
And in the next elevator, next
to them.
1464
01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:51,600
There's a couple having sex in a
glass elevator going up and it's
1465
01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:53,700
just kind of like it's all over
the place.
1466
01:30:53,700 --> 01:30:57,900
Like literally people when you
say, people are just having sex
1467
01:30:57,900 --> 01:31:01,000
in the streets.
No, they're literally having sex
1468
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:04,300
in this to me beer, like,
everywhere.
1469
01:31:04,500 --> 01:31:11,000
It was like it reminded me of
even like Eyes Wide Shut or like
1470
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:14,400
the orgy scene in.
The Witcher it was just like
1471
01:31:14,500 --> 01:31:17,200
everywhere everywhere
everywhere.
1472
01:31:17,200 --> 01:31:19,400
And just random people like
walking.
1473
01:31:19,700 --> 01:31:21,500
I'm bored with you.
Let me go to this person.
1474
01:31:21,500 --> 01:31:25,000
Next here and it was just random
walking through.
1475
01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:27,500
Walk you through one a little
fingers brothels.
1476
01:31:28,100 --> 01:31:33,000
Exactly, exactly.
And then on top of the orgies
1477
01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:36,700
and everything taking place like
right there in the middle, at
1478
01:31:36,700 --> 01:31:39,100
the bottom.
You've got a fighting pit.
1479
01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:42,600
And instead of just fighting to
the deaths there, literally.
1480
01:31:43,200 --> 01:31:48,100
Hacking each other to death.
So, you've got legs over here in
1481
01:31:48,100 --> 01:31:50,700
arms over here and torsos over
here.
1482
01:31:50,700 --> 01:31:54,700
And it's just like and then
you've got people even having
1483
01:31:54,700 --> 01:31:58,500
sex in the midst of that.
I think, you know, in the same
1484
01:31:58,500 --> 01:32:01,500
on the same floor.
So it's just like, we already
1485
01:32:01,500 --> 01:32:04,700
know what kind of people he's
attracting and obviously, if
1486
01:32:04,700 --> 01:32:07,800
they're not in Boulder then
that's where they are.
1487
01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:11,600
I don't really think we need a
back story at this point if we
1488
01:32:11,600 --> 01:32:13,700
already have Lloyd's.
A backstory.
1489
01:32:13,900 --> 01:32:16,900
He seems to be the most
important person being and we
1490
01:32:16,900 --> 01:32:19,800
sort of got an idea about Julie
right now.
1491
01:32:19,800 --> 01:32:24,600
We may get some of her backstory
but at this about it, I don't
1492
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:28,000
think that's important.
Like I want to see what they're
1493
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:30,900
doing now because now you've got
Dana dead.
1494
01:32:32,300 --> 01:32:37,800
You've got Tom there who may be
figuring out that it might be
1495
01:32:37,800 --> 01:32:41,700
time for him to leave.
Who knows the judge is not there
1496
01:32:41,700 --> 01:32:44,000
yet, but they know she's on her
way.
1497
01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:50,000
So if we're going by the cannon
and the old store, she's not
1498
01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:52,400
going to make it.
She's not even going to make it
1499
01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:55,400
to Vegas.
So you've got mother, Abigail
1500
01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:58,500
who has disappeared.
So now, of course, she told them
1501
01:32:58,500 --> 01:33:00,700
not to find her.
So what are they going to do?
1502
01:33:00,700 --> 01:33:02,700
They're going to go.
Go look for her before.
1503
01:33:02,700 --> 01:33:09,000
Yeah, I go look for her and then
we still have the, you know, the
1504
01:33:09,000 --> 01:33:11,700
main characters they have to
journey to Boulder.
1505
01:33:11,900 --> 01:33:14,900
We have to have, I mean, we have
to have these different little
1506
01:33:14,900 --> 01:33:20,400
things happen and we've only got
what four episodes, or %.
1507
01:33:20,700 --> 01:33:22,800
Yeah.
So there's this, there's a lot
1508
01:33:22,800 --> 01:33:25,600
of ground to cover for the next
round.
1509
01:33:26,700 --> 01:33:31,300
So, I'm afraid, I'm afraid not
only of waste going to get cut,
1510
01:33:31,300 --> 01:33:34,500
what's going to get changed?
And the way in, which is going
1511
01:33:34,500 --> 01:33:40,400
to be changed is, is is my fear
and, and just a little insight.
1512
01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:43,400
I know we don't talk about other
reviewers, but I know there were
1513
01:33:43,407 --> 01:33:46,200
a lot of people, a lot of
reviewers got this guy, these
1514
01:33:46,200 --> 01:33:51,100
episodes early.
Most of them that I've seen have
1515
01:33:51,100 --> 01:33:55,800
said that this is where every
this episode episode 5.
1516
01:33:56,000 --> 01:33:58,300
I've is where everything kind of
went off the rails.
1517
01:34:01,900 --> 01:34:08,700
So we will see will see coming
up but that that has been the
1518
01:34:08,700 --> 01:34:11,600
best but that's been the
consensus for the most part.
1519
01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:15,300
Get out now, so we gotta finish
that but for the most part the
1520
01:34:15,300 --> 01:34:18,700
consistencies this is where
everything went off the rails.
1521
01:34:18,700 --> 01:34:21,800
And I tried not to watch your
views because I want mine to be
1522
01:34:22,200 --> 01:34:27,400
pretty untainted, but like you
said between Dana and Franny,
1523
01:34:27,900 --> 01:34:33,700
and And really just Dana there.
That whole thing.
1524
01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:38,600
Just her whole Arc just seems
completely and utterly
1525
01:34:38,600 --> 01:34:42,300
ridiculous.
I just like, yes, her story up.
1526
01:34:42,300 --> 01:34:47,000
Yeah, and then Larry and the
dean their whole thing.
1527
01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:54,400
Is this so strange and weird.
It's his at I really really
1528
01:34:54,900 --> 01:35:00,600
hopefully I want to say things
get better but I'm not I'm not,
1529
01:35:00,900 --> 01:35:03,900
I'm not counting on it.
I wonder what the numbers are
1530
01:35:03,900 --> 01:35:06,500
for them.
I wonder how many people started
1531
01:35:06,500 --> 01:35:09,500
watching your hands have just
abandon it and I wonder, I
1532
01:35:09,500 --> 01:35:12,500
wonder what the numbers are,
like and I know Amazon is Never
1533
01:35:12,500 --> 01:35:15,300
Gonna never going to release
that information.
1534
01:35:15,300 --> 01:35:19,400
Yeah.
I am people who, when I posted
1535
01:35:19,400 --> 01:35:21,800
like checked in on Facebook that
I was watching it.
1536
01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:25,700
I've had a few people be like,
yeah, we started it copped out
1537
01:35:25,700 --> 01:35:27,600
after episode one like one
person.
1538
01:35:27,600 --> 01:35:30,300
He was like Yeah, my mom started
watching it.
1539
01:35:30,300 --> 01:35:32,200
She didn't even get through the
whole first episode.
1540
01:35:32,200 --> 01:35:34,500
She hated it.
She hated absolutely everything
1541
01:35:34,500 --> 01:35:36,800
about it.
She refused to watch the rest of
1542
01:35:36,800 --> 01:35:38,500
it.
And then I do know, a few people
1543
01:35:38,500 --> 01:35:41,100
who are still watching it, but
they don't like it.
1544
01:35:41,200 --> 01:35:44,500
Like there was a actual thread I
think a couple of times I've
1545
01:35:44,500 --> 01:35:47,700
tweeted about something and
literally everybody abundant the
1546
01:35:47,700 --> 01:35:49,500
Tweet have been like, yeah,
you're right.
1547
01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:54,800
I don't like this either and I
have not I'm not really seen
1548
01:35:55,400 --> 01:36:00,300
anybody who is watch this.
And said that they loved it.
1549
01:36:00,300 --> 01:36:04,500
Not if they were fans of the
original Source material.
1550
01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:07,900
I have not said, I literally,
and I'm not exaggerating that.
1551
01:36:07,900 --> 01:36:14,100
I've not seen anybody yet, you
know, you know, that I'm friends
1552
01:36:14,100 --> 01:36:16,400
with.
Yeah.
1553
01:36:16,400 --> 01:36:22,200
I love it.
You know, you and I for years,
1554
01:36:22,200 --> 01:36:26,300
he'll talked about if you if you
was just starting to show you
1555
01:36:26,300 --> 01:36:31,000
got to give it about four or
five episodes before you can
1556
01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:34,000
pass judgment.
It's been five episodes.
1557
01:36:34,600 --> 01:36:38,100
I'm passing sugar is kind of
bad.
1558
01:36:38,800 --> 01:36:45,000
It really is, is that me what I
was expecting and I was really
1559
01:36:45,200 --> 01:36:50,600
hopeful for this one because,
you know, We live in a time now
1560
01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:56,600
where almost everything in
Hollywood is a remake or reboot?
1561
01:36:56,700 --> 01:37:00,100
Like there seemed to be no
original ideas coming out of
1562
01:37:00,100 --> 01:37:02,700
Hollywood.
Now, for the most part, a lot of
1563
01:37:02,708 --> 01:37:05,900
things have been rebooted.
A lot of Stephen King things,
1564
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:09,300
especially the last few years.
I mean, they re done it, they've
1565
01:37:09,300 --> 01:37:16,100
redone pet cemetery, you know,
other things have come out, and
1566
01:37:16,900 --> 01:37:22,500
it's kind of like, I like the
originals and I understand the
1567
01:37:22,500 --> 01:37:26,200
reason for remakes.
I mean this day and age that we
1568
01:37:26,200 --> 01:37:27,800
are not the only ones to do
remakes.
1569
01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:31,600
I mean they've been doing
remakes almost since the history
1570
01:37:31,600 --> 01:37:37,300
of Hollywood, you know, um,
sometimes the remakes work, you
1571
01:37:37,300 --> 01:37:41,400
know, sometimes they don't this
one.
1572
01:37:41,700 --> 01:37:45,700
I was really, really looking
forward to it just because I
1573
01:37:45,700 --> 01:37:49,500
wanted to see what they would be
able to do with the The story
1574
01:37:49,600 --> 01:37:55,700
with new technology with new
grafic, CGI, whatever.
1575
01:37:55,800 --> 01:37:58,400
Because like you said, there
were some things about the 94,
1576
01:37:58,400 --> 01:38:00,800
like the whole hand of God thing
that thing was, that was
1577
01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:03,400
horrible.
It was really looking forward to
1578
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:05,500
like, okay.
I want to see how they're going
1579
01:38:05,500 --> 01:38:08,600
to improve on this.
And there are some things that I
1580
01:38:08,600 --> 01:38:11,800
really, really do like about
this show.
1581
01:38:11,800 --> 01:38:16,400
Like I said, as far as casting
Alexander, Skarsgard, perfect,
1582
01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:21,600
as Randall, Flagg Catman, The
mirror perfect as jewelry, you
1583
01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:26,200
know playing Larry undo it.
Yeah, he's great.
1584
01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:34,000
Um, James Marsden is growing on
me is too but I don't feel like
1585
01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:39,400
we cease to enough in this
version for me to be like, oh,
1586
01:38:39,400 --> 01:38:40,800
yeah.
I absolutely hate him.
1587
01:38:40,800 --> 01:38:43,900
I absolutely love him.
Like he's kind of a is too
1588
01:38:43,900 --> 01:38:47,700
plain.
He's a yeah.
1589
01:38:58,500 --> 01:39:06,100
And the other really gotten any
Glenn and we're not getting near
1590
01:39:06,100 --> 01:39:08,100
as enough.
It near enough.
1591
01:39:08,300 --> 01:39:15,300
Nick know, Nick was like a main
character in the original and
1592
01:39:15,300 --> 01:39:20,800
Rob Lowe was great as Nick.
And he's one of my favorite.
1593
01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:22,300
He was evil.
He was one of my favorite
1594
01:39:22,300 --> 01:39:26,800
characters in the book is well
when I get enough of him and I
1595
01:39:26,800 --> 01:39:30,300
feel like at this point with
only four episodes left.
1596
01:39:30,500 --> 01:39:35,000
Those are some of the characters
that we really should be seeing
1597
01:39:35,000 --> 01:39:37,800
more of now.
I will say this, we do know that
1598
01:39:37,800 --> 01:39:42,100
still has a big part in towards
the end of the, towards the end
1599
01:39:42,100 --> 01:39:46,800
of the show, so we may see more
of students care to if they hold
1600
01:39:46,800 --> 01:39:49,200
true to the source material.
Material.
1601
01:39:49,500 --> 01:39:53,300
But at this point, I can't
really make much of a judgment
1602
01:39:53,300 --> 01:39:56,000
because he's been very neutral
in this.
1603
01:39:56,400 --> 01:40:03,200
Yeah, and it's almost as if for
me, the only thing keeping the
1604
01:40:03,200 --> 01:40:10,000
train going, are the actors, you
know, working with with a god,
1605
01:40:10,200 --> 01:40:13,200
they seem to be through their
acting performances.
1606
01:40:13,500 --> 01:40:18,400
Just carrying us through.
Yeah, and that seems to be the
1607
01:40:18,400 --> 01:40:20,300
case.
This is and maybe Amber Heard is
1608
01:40:20,300 --> 01:40:24,400
kind of helped the saddle stupid
with his last episode.
1609
01:40:26,100 --> 01:40:29,700
You heard me we've heard
characterization of Nadine
1610
01:40:29,900 --> 01:40:32,300
because again, they really
screwed it up with Dana.
1611
01:40:32,900 --> 01:40:35,800
I mean and like I said, I like
the actress that was playing
1612
01:40:35,800 --> 01:40:40,600
her, but it was just this
episode felt so unlike that
1613
01:40:40,600 --> 01:40:45,600
character.
Like I would, I'm sorry.
1614
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:47,900
I would have picked her out
first day.
1615
01:40:48,800 --> 01:40:52,000
You see the only person walking
around asking about Randall,
1616
01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:53,900
Flagg.
Oh, something about you, ain't
1617
01:40:53,900 --> 01:40:58,200
right and light like Lloyd said,
Captain trips happened.
1618
01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:01,800
Long time ago.
Where have you been until now, I
1619
01:41:01,808 --> 01:41:04,100
was thinking she could.
It just been honest.
1620
01:41:04,300 --> 01:41:08,800
Well, I was, you know, trudging
along and I got kidnapped by
1621
01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:12,100
some crazy pervert who raped me
every night.
1622
01:41:12,500 --> 01:41:16,700
And I finally was able to kill
his ass and this is where I
1623
01:41:16,700 --> 01:41:19,700
ended up being that would have
made the for a better story
1624
01:41:19,700 --> 01:41:23,700
because of the like, wow, that's
what made them like.
1625
01:41:26,100 --> 01:41:29,500
Oh, how did you kill him?
I bashed his brains and there
1626
01:41:29,500 --> 01:41:32,200
was nothing left of his hair.
Oh, yeah.
1627
01:41:32,200 --> 01:41:35,300
Come on, let's go party.
That would have made so much
1628
01:41:35,300 --> 01:41:38,600
more sense.
And Julia could have like oh,
1629
01:41:38,608 --> 01:41:42,100
this is my girl, you know,
because that she's all about.
1630
01:41:42,200 --> 01:41:44,500
That and Julie was feeling her
anyway, Julie.
1631
01:41:44,500 --> 01:41:48,300
I think it was in to Dana more
than she was in before but you
1632
01:41:48,300 --> 01:41:52,800
know, but I thought that was a
wasted opportunity right there
1633
01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:56,600
just have her to just to
embellish her truth a little
1634
01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:59,600
bit.
That's how seeing of this I
1635
01:42:00,100 --> 01:42:00,800
after all.
This.
1636
01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:05,700
Should I even if you got some
stuff, you know, if you want
1637
01:42:05,700 --> 01:42:09,500
saying something do that, you
know, lean into it.
1638
01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:15,400
You got to lean in lean into
that decision.
1639
01:42:15,400 --> 01:42:23,100
You made follow through.
So we'll see how this we only
1640
01:42:23,100 --> 01:42:25,900
got another month and it'll be
all over.
1641
01:42:27,200 --> 01:42:30,300
We move on to bigger better.
Things will start talking about
1642
01:42:30,300 --> 01:42:32,900
American Gods and we'll put this
all behind this.
1643
01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:39,400
Yeah, but I you know, halfway
through I have to say I'm
1644
01:42:39,600 --> 01:42:43,400
probably more disappointed than
I am pleased with what they've
1645
01:42:43,400 --> 01:42:49,200
done so far, so, I don't know.
Let's just Let's just say, okay.
1646
01:42:49,200 --> 01:42:54,000
We've hit that for episode 5
episode hump and from here on
1647
01:42:54,000 --> 01:42:55,800
out.
They're going to blow our minds
1648
01:42:55,800 --> 01:42:59,000
out the water.
I mean, I don't know if I should
1649
01:42:59,000 --> 01:43:02,000
go that route because then I'll
be more disappointed.
1650
01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:04,800
If it doesn't come out that way
especially given what you've
1651
01:43:04,800 --> 01:43:09,100
said the critics are saying, but
I kind of there's a part of me
1652
01:43:09,100 --> 01:43:12,100
that really wants to have hope
that this is going to be better.
1653
01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:16,300
Anthony shaking his head like
nope.
1654
01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:24,300
We're kills my with.
We kills it for me and this is
1655
01:43:24,300 --> 01:43:26,100
going to sound like, out of left
field.
1656
01:43:26,800 --> 01:43:34,700
Is where the hell is my VIP ago?
Like, when, what where are you?
1657
01:43:35,200 --> 01:43:42,700
We got four episodes left and,
and Now, I remember in the
1658
01:43:42,700 --> 01:43:45,400
original story.
She left because as she said,
1659
01:43:45,400 --> 01:43:47,500
she had to go make her Penance
to God.
1660
01:43:47,500 --> 01:43:53,600
I know she but for some weeks
and then she came back and she
1661
01:43:53,600 --> 01:43:58,700
told she told the boulder, five
what God said they had to do.
1662
01:43:58,700 --> 01:44:02,600
And then after that, I believe
she dies, so we probably will
1663
01:44:02,600 --> 01:44:04,700
only see what be in, maybe one
more episode.
1664
01:44:04,700 --> 01:44:08,600
But I mean, we didn't eat, we
didn't even get enough of
1665
01:44:08,608 --> 01:44:10,500
mother.
Gail and know.
1666
01:44:10,500 --> 01:44:17,500
And I think that's, that's from
going, like you, I don't know.
1667
01:44:17,700 --> 01:44:21,600
I guess you took the main
characters of the show and you
1668
01:44:21,600 --> 01:44:27,700
and you relegated them to
secondhand neutral or just kind
1669
01:44:27,700 --> 01:44:31,900
of almost throw away characters.
Because again, we haven't really
1670
01:44:31,900 --> 01:44:37,200
seen much Nick and Nick Nick was
a huge huge, huge part of the
1671
01:44:37,200 --> 01:44:42,900
book and of the original Because
at this point, it's really a
1672
01:44:42,900 --> 01:44:48,400
show about Nadine Harold and
Franny.
1673
01:44:49,100 --> 01:44:54,100
And and Larry that is your core.
That's it.
1674
01:44:54,500 --> 01:44:56,000
Right?
Everybody else.
1675
01:44:57,300 --> 01:44:59,500
Derek.
They did not even co-stars, you
1676
01:44:59,500 --> 01:45:05,600
just background characters.
They were a episode 5, your
1677
01:45:05,600 --> 01:45:10,100
shows really if you really want
to be me and crew, it's is
1678
01:45:10,100 --> 01:45:13,700
really the herald and Franny
show everything revolves around
1679
01:45:13,700 --> 01:45:18,100
here on their Franny, with his
side story that's happening in
1680
01:45:18,100 --> 01:45:19,700
Vegas.
That's it.
1681
01:45:20,400 --> 01:45:27,600
This all you've given us and
it's one thing that this show is
1682
01:45:28,600 --> 01:45:30,800
making me want to do.
Now.
1683
01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:33,600
I really do want to go.
Back and reread the book and
1684
01:45:33,600 --> 01:45:37,900
re-watch the original series.
There is a series, I think
1685
01:45:37,900 --> 01:45:40,200
Utopias are you to find YouTube
YouTube.
1686
01:45:40,900 --> 01:45:44,500
So, I think at this point, once
I'm done with this, I'm going to
1687
01:45:44,500 --> 01:45:49,700
go back and revisit those
because You know, the the
1688
01:45:49,700 --> 01:45:54,700
original miniseries, it had its
faults, but I feel like it was a
1689
01:45:54,700 --> 01:46:01,800
truer adaptation than most of
his stuff is, you know, and I
1690
01:46:01,800 --> 01:46:08,400
remember a lot of the book being
put on that screen for those.
1691
01:46:08,400 --> 01:46:11,400
What was it?
Six and a half hours hours.
1692
01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:15,300
Maybe I do.
Eventually want to go back and
1693
01:46:15,300 --> 01:46:18,100
watch that especially if this
one doesn't turn out.
1694
01:46:18,800 --> 01:46:22,000
To be what I wanted to be.
I'm going to need something to
1695
01:46:22,000 --> 01:46:27,200
cleanse, my palate me back into
and put me back into the mindset
1696
01:46:27,200 --> 01:46:28,800
of this.
Being one of my favorite
1697
01:46:28,800 --> 01:46:33,100
all-time stories ever.
I just don't think this that
1698
01:46:33,100 --> 01:46:35,700
this miniseries is doing it for
me.
1699
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:40,500
I think they just stopped doing
Stephen King adaptations.
1700
01:46:40,600 --> 01:46:45,200
I think this is just stop.
There was some good ones like
1701
01:46:45,300 --> 01:46:47,700
The Shining but that was Stanley
Kubrick.
1702
01:46:47,900 --> 01:46:51,900
He was He hates that, but he
wasn't going to mess it up
1703
01:46:51,900 --> 01:46:53,200
there.
Either.
1704
01:46:54,200 --> 01:46:54,700
You me.
Stephen.
1705
01:46:54,700 --> 01:46:56,500
Yeah, Stephen King.
Good like Nathan.
1706
01:46:56,500 --> 01:46:58,700
Yeah.
Well that's about egos.
1707
01:46:58,900 --> 01:47:02,600
No one's ego is larger was
larger than Stephen, King's been
1708
01:47:02,600 --> 01:47:05,500
in Stanley Kubrick's and you're
not going to tell Stanley
1709
01:47:05,500 --> 01:47:07,800
Kubrick what he's going to do in
his movie.
1710
01:47:08,200 --> 01:47:10,700
That's number one and Stanley
Kubrick's.
1711
01:47:10,700 --> 01:47:15,000
Version of the signing is better
than Stephen King's version of
1712
01:47:15,000 --> 01:47:17,600
The Shining.
Because when he was able to do
1713
01:47:17,600 --> 01:47:20,400
The Shining, And be involved in
it.
1714
01:47:20,500 --> 01:47:25,200
It wasn't nearly as good as the
original and that's because of
1715
01:47:25,208 --> 01:47:28,800
Stanley Kubrick either.
I mean, there's there's there's
1716
01:47:28,800 --> 01:47:33,100
a difference between I'm
speaking like, I'm an expert in
1717
01:47:33,100 --> 01:47:36,900
Authority obvious, but taking a
book and put it on the screen.
1718
01:47:37,100 --> 01:47:40,300
I'm sure it's not easy thing to
do, but you're going to have to
1719
01:47:40,300 --> 01:47:46,000
have someone pretty good to do
it and to do it, right?
1720
01:47:46,000 --> 01:47:48,200
It's like there's some things
it's just not going to.
1721
01:47:48,600 --> 01:47:51,900
This in the book second work on
screen, but there's some things
1722
01:47:51,900 --> 01:47:54,100
I can do on screen this kind of
going to work.
1723
01:47:54,100 --> 01:47:59,000
You know, I mean, the firm by
John Grisham is the excellent
1724
01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:01,900
book.
The movie has a different ending
1725
01:48:01,900 --> 01:48:05,400
in the book.
And guess what, is almost better
1726
01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:09,000
than the book the movie is
really, really good.
1727
01:48:09,400 --> 01:48:12,600
I mean, we can go on and on
maybe we should do an episode
1728
01:48:12,600 --> 01:48:16,100
about our favorite book to film
at their patients.
1729
01:48:17,300 --> 01:48:20,700
And some point, but like it's
not an easy thing to do.
1730
01:48:20,700 --> 01:48:25,000
And the reason why I had high
hopes for the stand is Nine
1731
01:48:25,000 --> 01:48:30,700
episodes, you know, nine hours.
You got you got a lot of time to
1732
01:48:30,700 --> 01:48:34,000
do it, right, you know to is a
lot of characters, a lot of
1733
01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:37,700
story.
You got nine episodes, you know,
1734
01:48:37,700 --> 01:48:39,300
you can do it.
No commercials.
1735
01:48:39,500 --> 01:48:44,100
Well, it does have commercials,
but you got a solid hour.
1736
01:48:45,700 --> 01:48:51,000
Well, well, yeah, Amazon throws,
commercial Co okay.
1737
01:48:51,100 --> 01:48:54,000
Okay.
Yeah, see, I watch mine on CBS
1738
01:48:54,000 --> 01:48:57,800
access.
But yeah, yeah.
1739
01:48:57,800 --> 01:49:01,700
And I mean, even if you were
going to do this, why stop at
1740
01:49:01,700 --> 01:49:05,400
night, just make it a one season
show.
1741
01:49:05,700 --> 01:49:08,400
Give it a full 10 episodes.
You could have thrown a little
1742
01:49:08,400 --> 01:49:10,400
bit more with the extra 60
Minutes.
1743
01:49:10,900 --> 01:49:11,900
Hmm.
Yeah.
1744
01:49:12,600 --> 01:49:15,300
Hey, you in the path, to
relegate these.
1745
01:49:15,500 --> 01:49:19,700
To is to basically just being
Side characters, especially
1746
01:49:19,700 --> 01:49:24,000
student, you know, you started
out strong and being just kind
1747
01:49:24,000 --> 01:49:26,600
of abandoned in some, for the
remaining episodes.
1748
01:49:26,600 --> 01:49:31,200
But like I said, he's character
picks up his involvement towards
1749
01:49:31,200 --> 01:49:35,500
the end of the story.
So, yeah, but been hoping
1750
01:49:35,700 --> 01:49:37,900
that'll pick up in the show as
well.
1751
01:49:38,300 --> 01:49:41,800
Yeah, but people who are still
fans after that first episode
1752
01:49:41,800 --> 01:49:45,900
we'll bill bill just like well
damn, he's not hitting it so Why
1753
01:49:45,900 --> 01:49:51,000
ever go past episode 4, episode
3 when he's hardly even in it.
1754
01:49:51,100 --> 01:49:54,900
Yeah, you know, I mean and and I
don't like Carol.
1755
01:49:55,500 --> 01:49:57,500
So people who think Harold is a
creep.
1756
01:49:57,500 --> 01:50:00,500
Why would they keep watching it?
Like, oh, he's terrible.
1757
01:50:00,600 --> 01:50:05,600
He's terrible, but he's on the
screen 50% of the time I'm done
1758
01:50:05,600 --> 01:50:07,500
with this and they stop watching
it.
1759
01:50:07,800 --> 01:50:10,600
That that that's what happens.
You know, Franny.
1760
01:50:10,600 --> 01:50:12,800
Oh my God, she treats her like
crap.
1761
01:50:12,900 --> 01:50:14,600
Why are we seeing them all the
time?
1762
01:50:14,700 --> 01:50:16,800
They're not occur.
Coat off.
1763
01:50:16,900 --> 01:50:18,900
I'm done with it.
Oh Larry.
1764
01:50:18,900 --> 01:50:22,300
That's a nice guy.
Wait, no, Larry this episode.
1765
01:50:22,400 --> 01:50:23,700
I'm done.
Yummy.
1766
01:50:24,000 --> 01:50:27,100
There's a this lot of places
where people would just jump
1767
01:50:27,100 --> 01:50:32,400
ship because you're not giving
us, you know knows a lot of the
1768
01:50:32,400 --> 01:50:34,000
characters and I understand what
you're saying.
1769
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:38,500
You're going to give this more
stew later, but you you it's
1770
01:50:38,500 --> 01:50:45,300
almost like the pacing is such
that you don't get enough of it.
1771
01:50:45,400 --> 01:50:47,400
Anything.
It's like you gave me a plate
1772
01:50:47,400 --> 01:50:50,400
with a whole bunch of food, but
I like, I like the Thousand
1773
01:50:50,400 --> 01:50:52,300
Foods.
So I'm going to get like a
1774
01:50:52,300 --> 01:50:54,600
little tiny droplet of each
piece.
1775
01:50:55,100 --> 01:50:59,300
That's not satisfying, you can
feel me up and I'll be bursting.
1776
01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:04,200
But there wasn't anything else,
the things I truly enjoyed.
1777
01:51:04,200 --> 01:51:08,200
I didn't get enough of right.
Looks like Thanksgiving you ever
1778
01:51:08,200 --> 01:51:11,900
go to Thanksgiving and your eyes
are so big and you see all the
1779
01:51:11,900 --> 01:51:14,300
food in like, okay.
I'm just gonna get this Boon for
1780
01:51:14,300 --> 01:51:18,200
the greens.
Before the potato salad a little
1781
01:51:18,200 --> 01:51:22,400
spoonful of potato souffle.
A little piece of turkey, a
1782
01:51:22,400 --> 01:51:25,800
little piece of ham, a little
piece of fried chili, you sure
1783
01:51:25,800 --> 01:51:27,800
your plate up with all this
food.
1784
01:51:28,200 --> 01:51:31,100
You don't enjoy any of it.
Yeah.
1785
01:51:31,300 --> 01:51:35,800
That's how I feel.
The stand is Thanksgiving dinner
1786
01:51:38,400 --> 01:51:41,300
at Grandma's house where she
could everything.
1787
01:51:41,500 --> 01:51:44,400
Yeah.
And not enough all the same
1788
01:51:44,400 --> 01:51:50,300
time.
Why don't you want to enjoy it?
1789
01:51:50,900 --> 01:51:54,900
You want to delete the things
about it that you like, but
1790
01:51:54,900 --> 01:51:58,300
there just isn't enough Fair
Justice.
1791
01:52:01,300 --> 01:52:09,000
Well, I have four more episodes.
And at this point, it's too late
1792
01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:10,800
for us to pull out.
Like we got, we got to see it
1793
01:52:10,800 --> 01:52:12,400
through now, so I will see you
through.
1794
01:52:12,600 --> 01:52:15,400
Oh, good or bad.
We're here for the ride.
1795
01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:21,700
So, I think at this point, we
said all we needed to say and
1796
01:52:21,800 --> 01:52:25,300
we'll just pick this up next
week, for the next episode.
1797
01:52:25,300 --> 01:52:27,600
So for now, that's it for our
show.
