further ado, let's jump into this episode. We've got a lot to talk about, and I think it's a good
discussion. I mean, of course I would, but I think it's actually good, not just because I like
Greg and Coy and I was there too, and you get the point. Anyway, roll the buck.
the end of the timeline yeah no more marble canon event it's over
that kevin foggy reboots coming sooner than we thought it's great to go to the handheld
oh shit god what a shot to end on ended it's darkness the darkness of that oh my god
Aaron and Justin directed that one.
Yeah, that's why it felt like the first episode.
And they directed the first one, too.
That's why it felt perfect, you geniuses.
Damn, that was an expertly crafted episode.
I'm exhausted.
I am so tired.
That was ex-perately.
Not only was their mom's spaghetti, my palms are so sweet.
That is one of the best episodes of all of MCU television.
Period.
Heart stop.
That stayed taught the whole way.
It also fixed my issues with episodes two and some of three.
It was so good.
it retroactively, like, got me there.
Wow, you have no, like, that was exceptional.
But you still have, you still have the ability to go to RejectnationShop.
And get yourself some teas to support the chat.
Get your own nipple chills.
I got nipple chills.
I got nipple chills.
The Space Babies of the Galaxy.
This Loki inspired merch, this other Marvel merch that we got, too.
and then this shirt right here
and then that shirt right there
and then every single one
helps to support the channel in great ways
and man there's some sinister credits playing
before us right now. This is ominous and new
and that monkey was terrifying. Oh yeah
monkey shines boy.
Ooh. Oh you get the
that Victor timely there at the shot. I'm wondering if
there's Easter eggs for future stuff
or like references that will catch
because now we're back to the beginning
of the show because it's an Orboris
and the death of Victor
I think brings about
another kang
oh it must
because untethering him from all time
I'm curious how that relates
but also the idea that
he was a good
kang and he stayed good and I didn't trust
him I love how much of a horror
show this is man
like I got spaghettied
well and on loki
I mean he who remains is obviously dubious
but like the kangs we've met directly
via loki are like
not overtly
evil whereas you know quantum mania is pretty clear cut i mean he must have been i don't know if they
mean he was killed then because they were all caught up in that in that final moment so they must
have been transferred somewhere there's no way they just killed them but there is that loki who was
pruned yeah the one that loki pruned himself right so that loki i think that's how the time
messiness happens with him getting yeah because unfortunately there is
one trailer shot that I remember
that we still haven't yet to see.
I think that's what caused Loki to be
time displaced.
Yeah.
Is him zonking himself.
Oh.
So we're literally back to now
round zero.
Boroborous.
But time itself imploding.
Man, if this leads to an actual
cleansing of canon and timeline
for Kang Dynasty and then Marvel can do,
I've been saying from the beginning,
give Marvel the DeusX Machina to clean up
any storylines that didn't work,
and this episode could do that.
I mean,
I don't know if they're going to do that, man.
And then Deadpool just goes out,
killing universes that are unwanted,
but not on purpose.
Deadpool post credits in episode six.
I mean,
we all thought that
the end of Loki season one
would lead to a craziness of...
I will stay optimistic
until Marvel closes their doors.
But in terms of what this episode did alone,
like just thinking about what the episode did,
this is one like I feel like,
I would have to process a little bit just because of how well done it is.
Like, they have just brilliant debates all around right from Loki and Sylvie discussion of the power that they hold and what does the TVA ultimately represent.
Like, this was a fight for power and choice and what the consequences of that could be despite your intentions.
You know, like that's what was happening with Ravona.
That's what was happening with Docs.
That's what was happening with Loki and Sylvie.
Victor's whole character is about the consequences of actions
That's his whole ass character
Yeah
I loved the it's a big cautionary tale
His minutes got murked
Victor got murked
Yeah
A Loki caused himself to be time distorted
And displaced
We still have all the ominousness
Of when Mobia sees himself on a jet ski
I did
It just really stands out to me that in episode three
They said in case he died
You give this to Victor timely
I still feel like we are watching he who remains big plan
because the way they frame this show
especially when Justin Aaron direct
there's constantly this voyeuristic presence
as if there's something greater power watching
and I'm not saying he who remains is alive
I'm saying I think we are watching something else unfold
that was part of he who remains big plan
I think we're seeing a Kang watch over I think it was an act of subterfuge
of what he was doing when he was saying that
oh you i want you loki and sylvie to run the tv a and you guys do whatever you want i don't think
that was the reality of the situation why else would he be like if i die give this the war's got
to start everything over yeah and i think this is a big part of the clenzing and i definitely think
that the shots where they pull back and they show a lens of someone watching something on a tv
someone watching something pull out of another time that's the voyeurism you're describing but i think
it's a kang being aware it's not him literally watching tv like the matrix but it's him
It's thematically watching over a thing that he is put in place.
Yeah, we'll go into the Kang architect room next episode and he'll be like,
this is the sixth version of the TVA.
I hope we finally meet.
If we meet Real Kang next week, I think we meet Real Kang next week.
I think we meet a Kang powerful enough to survive ants.
Yeah.
And what will he have to say about that?
I mean, like I took my name, it wasn't me.
God, I hope so.
I really thought we were going to watch like something with Victor timely.
It is like, like,
that I didn't trust him ever.
It's crazy.
He's not the major trials.
So good.
Coming up soon.
So we're going to have to ignore that for right now.
But it is crazy how he's managed to play three distinct different kings.
And if you count quantum mania, like, 46.
Oh, yeah.
Which I totally do.
The last is quantum.
Definitely felt unique and not like a bunch of people watching football game.
I'm like an S&L.
Those guys were totally.
The counselor king scene suddenly becomes a little bit more questionable to me now that when I factor in what they're doing here.
I'm like, they're up to something entirely different than what's happening here.
I feel like Loki is much like Wanda Vision where it's like someone watched half of something they needed to.
Like, this feels like the follow up to Loki, but does not feel like it acknowledges Quantum Mania at all.
And like Quantummania feels like it didn't acknowledge Loki at all.
Yes.
Which could exist with multiple timelines.
And if you destroy a bunch of them in this episode, quantum mania.
Yeah, I like ants.
And I look at the end of Paul Rudd going like, did that really happen?
Maybe not, bro.
Carry on to the next Avengers.
don't acknowledge that movie um clenced back to the yep the the the the whole thing with
rvona rentslayer i i feel like rising um up in like realizing what she really was before it is
cool to see i want i want to see more of that side of her because rvona and depending on what like
the only thing i really read was the one thing you recommended that that brilliant game comic yeah
where where nathaniel richards does learn about himself his meet about is greeted by a
King.
It's written by Jackson.
And he's like,
I gotta stop myself
from becoming this
that he ends up
just becoming it.
He becomes a
time machine.
The act of trying
to stop it is what causes it.
It is an or a boris.
And I thought that like maybe
that's what was happening
with Victor Timely.
Same.
Oh,
is he accidentally
going to become himself
but like trying to prevent
himself from becoming.
Especially that Miss Minutes line.
When Miss Minutes is like
it's what you want
or like you won't get it.
Yeah.
It's never be him.
There it is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then but Ravona is very much
featured in that and they do hint at that with
he who remains like he did
have this sorrowful regret when he says
I'm sorry when he's by himself
after you know giving the order
to wipe everyone's memory he says
I'm sorry in a way that does seem
like sorrowful about it like he had to make a hard
choice there
and I don't know if they're implying that they're lovers
you know because like
traditionally
there's a romance there's a love
but maybe not that king because he who remains
was definitely more of an isolated character than a lot of
And then there's, like, other Ravonis throughout time that it can be very much, like, fierce warriors.
And we're going to meet one because she just got proved.
And I want to see that version.
I mean, but if you've been proved, you're putting it to the void.
And if you're putting it to the void, right, that's what happens.
You're putting it where.
At the void at the end of time.
Yeah.
But I don't think she, oh, she did come back from that once just now.
So I guess it's possible.
Yeah, she got back because of Miss Minutes.
Right.
But Miss Minutes when she reboots, might be able to bring it back again.
Perhaps.
So, yeah, I mean, I feel like she'd be going to the end of time.
And that's probably where that Loki is.
Right.
And they would, and maybe, I mean, my theory is that our, that Loki who got pruned might be able to, because in that last, up, in last season, they had to enchant Eliath to distract, right?
Right.
Right. That's what they did.
Which one's Eliath?
The big smoke mom.
Thank you.
Yeah.
They had to enchant Eliath.
And I think, but he had to team up with Sylvie to do that.
Yes.
And so maybe, but that was all wasn't strong enough.
No, no, no.
They did do it because then they had Richard E. Grant distracting with creating the ASGAR.
Yeah.
So anyway, I don't know what they're going to do.
But that Loki still has to exist.
Right.
Because there is one trailer shot that everyone was screenshoting.
I don't want to remind you.
Remember enjoying things for the internet?
But that's the only other shot I can think of.
That we haven't seen too far.
Yeah, that's the only other shot I can think of.
There's nothing else that comes to mind.
like we haven't seen this we haven't seen this that was the only shot i'm like oh yeah there is
one specific shot we haven't seen yet um and it's like there's no way they would kill all these
people off so that's why i'm thinking maybe they weren't killed yeah that they were actually
displaced somewhere else i wonder what the rules are of the little jailbox thing in that regard
then yeah i think they're smushed i mean it seemed like there was residue there seems like
well i think jail box people are dead yeah i'm saying i'm saying at the very end here like what would
happen with all them.
Yeah.
Oh,
oh,
got you.
I think Sylvie.
With the loom
burst open.
I mean,
it's a very,
like this is maybe
the biggest
cliffhanger episode
in Marvel TV, right?
Because like that,
that could literally
go anywhere.
Well,
not for a finale episode,
like for episode
four and five.
Like, for a singular
episode.
Like this feels like
a huge gap
in anything
to come back in episode five.
I don't know.
Let's not forget
before he was Ralph Bona
he was quick.
Oh,
too shay.
For those beautiful
10 seconds. That's fair. That might
be the biggest cliffhanger between episodes and that are not
a finale. That was bananas.
All right. In recent memory, this is quite
the like... Only second to Ralph Bowen. Right
right after Boner entrance.
I loved how they manipulated
our expectations throughout that episode. I really love
that I didn't trust Victor and I should have.
This is really well crafted
though. I think from a directing
standpoint, a cinematography standpoint,
the way they clue us in through what these characters are
experiencing through their emotionality
via lighting choices, when to go handheld, how to make objects and items like feel larger than life
and have this sense of wonder and fate, yet with this tinge of like Darren Aronoski
fantasy sci-fi qualities to it where it does feel dark and wondrous, but also kind of menacing
underneath and unsettling.
There's a lot of whatchowski and agree with like the mirrors and the camera tilts and poles.
There's also a really interesting element of like the philosophy of like what extends beyond the trolley problem.
like what's the trolley problem for gods
and you've got gods discussing
the elements of the trolley problem but
what's the scope of like mortals
to immortals
you know what's a king to a god
I feel like
nicely doing
I feel like
Mobius I feel like everyone probably
got back I feel like a big reset
happened for everyone at the TVA and a lot
and whoever was still alive
and I think Mobius
has probably planted back to who he was.
Interesting.
That's what I think happened.
Okay.
I think we're going to see some really fun,
because they keep talking about that.
Yeah, no, but I think next episode is definitely
some Mobius timeline stuff.
And I think it opens under Jetsky.
And I think we're going to be relying on,
and I feel like the opening shot of next episode
is going to be that one trailer.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
I don't.
I honestly think the opening the next week is going to be Mobius Hunter.
Do you know what I don't remember it now?
After this episode.
I only saw the trailer, I think, the one time.
No, I'm not even kidding.
Marvel loves to do big climax and then jump cut to something you don't expect.
Very specific shot.
Damn, but I won't remind you guys about it.
We get to live in bliss.
But damn.
You guys must know what I'm talking about.
Especially with the sheet.
You guys are mentioning right now.
I really feel like I know what the opening shot of next one is going to be.
Loki is the end of time.
Loki in the void.
No, I don't want it.
I don't know Jetsky sound like.
It sounds like up here.
What's fun about this is whatever the opening.
shot is next week, I could just
be like, that was it. Yeah, I'd like to say
a specific thing that everyone can say
coercion of you. I can be like
called it because I didn't
actually say you. That was the trailer shot.
No, that was the trailer shot.
Actually, that was the Celestials.
And you're like, I knew the Celestius
was something totally out of the field.
I knew Thanos is coming back.
By the way.
Man, this is great.
Also, I love that 20 minutes in. I was like,
this reminds me of the first episode and that's how good
there is directors. Aaron and Justin are so
good that like it was so
their style, but I didn't assume it was theirs because they just
have this tone and pace they mastered.
There's a great call. You call that right away
of that Loki pruned himself. Yeah, I called episode
one, and then I love that they came back before. But great job on the
misleading of shots to make it
look like Sylvie might have just
one, boop! Right? Yeah.
Also love that the auriboris of the
season they let Justin Aaron direct both
ends of the snake eating its tail. Yeah. I love that
they let the style reflect the director's
take. I do
think that
there's that he who remains
there's something very like there's something
about Oroboris the character
not the not what it means
the concept of Oby
the character of Oby
because there were similarities
between him and he who remains of characters who are
isolated waiting for visitors and the
first visitor they get it hundreds of years as Loki
oh and they have
all this knowledge and this
passing of information that's why I was like
will Oroboris recognize Victor timely
in some capacity
but he also didn't seem to have his memory wiped entirely.
Like, I don't know.
There was, like, something there.
Like, because he was remembering shit about Mobius
and when they had an encounter in that first episode.
So he's beyond the wipe.
He's above it.
But the end of Ant Man implied the nexus level being
that means all Kang's look alike.
So I don't think he's a Kang,
but what if he's a construct like Miss Minutes
that he is something removed from time?
So he's the oral...
He's the self-reflecting art of Kang's concepts.
I mean, why would you name him Orabor?
Like, his name is Oraboros.
It's a little on the note.
You can't spell Robot without OB.
Like, that is not just some name given.
Do you know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
Well, yeah, they're talking to each other is the Oroboros.
Like someone had to have named him that.
Unless when Kang slash he remains slash timely knew all these events would occur, they knew he was the center of the auriboris and thus named him that because he's the one that has to help them get time solved.
So he's the center of this cycle.
a plant, a robot, an OB.
He's got to be, yeah.
He's the center of the snake.
The loop, I think.
Or he's can't.
And I know they say Tom works differently in the TVA, but he seems like he's been
around board for like hundreds of years.
400 or whatever they said, yeah.
Yeah, no, yeah.
Living, but I know time works differently in the TVA.
I think he's, I think he's something made.
That's what I'm saying, yeah.
Yeah, I think we're saying the same thing.
I feel like he who remains made him.
Yeah, I think he's a miss minutes.
I mean, we know he can make convincing.
animatronics.
Yeah.
And what's more narcissistic than a guy
that wants to conquer time itself
than by making something
that would be the thing that solves it?
And that it mirrors him greatly.
Like the mirror to him, right?
Like, let me bounce my ideas off you
off this mirror of my own creation.
Who loves me?
And then he's Herbie and Fantastic Four confirmed.
Hey, yeah.
That was so...
Easter eggs.
I'm so excited by this show again.
Yeah, no, I mean, it's fun
to be left in a place
where you're like breathless
and like overjoyed,
but also like, no, no, two more, it's only two more episodes.
Yeah.
And then I'm going to have to wait another, like, three years for this feeling again,
however long it takes them to do more low-key.
I do wish we had a little bit more time with docs and all them.
Yeah.
That's the one part of the show that I was like, ooh, that would have hit a lot,
a lot more, and that choice would have been more felt.
Agreed.
I'm like, we didn't really, we didn't really spend much that.
If episode two was seven minutes longer.
Like, episode two, feeling rush really is affected a lot.
I feel like that is something that was significantly paired for this because I think there's a lot of interesting stuff you could do and they represent an interesting side of the conversation about all of this in terms of certain people learn the truth and are immediately like, oh my God, what have I done?
But other people take a long time to deprogram or, you know, to build the trust to see past the, you know, paradigms, blah, blah, blah.
And so like I appreciated more in this episode that they went swiftly about it because that created a lot of unexpected situations.
and a lot of great things to respond to.
In isolation, I think the brevity of it here
and the directness of it here was good,
but at the same time, especially in light of episode two,
I think, yeah, you could have experienced a lot of that.
Well, that's what I'm saying, putting it there
would allow the wait to be here.
I think this episode was appropriately paced,
but if that had been earlier,
we'd have to be.
And I,
and I feel like I've been bringing this up
every episode since episode two.
As much as I love this one,
I put it up there with episode one,
for me i put it up there with episode one i still feel like like i love watching tom
hittleston because he's tom hitleston sure he is still just kind of straightforward dramatic
resigned intense staring guy and i like i get the arc he i want an arc i want it i want the art
to stay through i'm not asking for him to go back to being like god of just be mischievous you know but
It's just kind of a straightforward dramatic performance now.
And I'm missing some personality layers of the things that made me fall in love, that make all of us fall in love with Loki.
This does feel.
He is like essentially just a really, really good TVA agent now.
And I am missing, I am missing that.
Like, I appreciate the arts and the lines and the dialogue.
I appreciate all that.
That closing shot, so much emotion.
I could have two feelings about it.
I can appreciate a lot, but I'm like, but I also.
feel like we're missing
a lot of, we're missing this complete
other layer of the thing that got us
on board with Loki to begin.
I respect the duality. It feels like
Asoka only in so far as
this is much more an ensemble than it feels
like it's about its title character.
Not just that. It's just
a very straightforward, like
dramatic character now.
You know what I mean? He's not as impish.
Yeah, he's not as like
rascally. There's no fun
with Loki. He's not a
It's certainly not the god of mystery.
Well, I think there's not, there's no, it's not a, there's no fun with him.
Well, because he's not at odds anymore with like the bottom line of what's happening.
But I love the intensity.
That's the thing.
I love the intensity at the same time.
I'm like, with Mobius, they still manage to be, have intensity, but also keep that level of fun.
You know, it'd be fun, but impossible to do because everybody needs the namesake of Loki.
Imagine if this show was called Kang, and it was a Kang TVA agent trying to stop himself from becoming Kang.
so you replace the Tom Hiddleston part
with another Jonathan Majors
and it's Jonathan Majors
as a TV agent.
But imagine if Jonathan Majors
is playing a straight-laced TV agent
that is a Kang variant
that was trying to stop himself
from becoming Kang.
So he's trying to stock Victor Timely
and he who remains
from ever becoming the Oroboris
that is Kang and then dealing with
OB so all that intensity
would build out both characters.
I'm kind of questioning what I said
because I'm like
it wouldn't make sense
that he's a little bit more
dramatically resigned after everything
he's been through. Like Thor?
I mean, he has been
significantly changed
by the things he has seen.
He knows the truth of everything.
It's so little of anything before matters.
The whole scene with the pie.
You gotta get hope.
You gotta believe in something.
A heartbreak of Sylvie.
I mean, it does
character-wise line up.
My ridiculous idea just fixed Loki
for you. You're welcome.
That's what it was.
My thing that had nothing to do with Loki.
Here we are.
You're welcome.
That idea is so bad that I like this show more.
It wasn't a bad idea.
I'm saying that it did.
No, I think, yeah, no, no, I think both things can still be true.
It's like, I'm not upset because the placement of his character
and the emotionality of his character tracks.
But, you know, that's like a quintessential part of Loki
that makes him distinct in the MCU pantheon,
as well as the comics pantheon that he is this mischievous figure
and there's not as much opportunity for misty-o.
I thought when he was able to do magic.
With Brad, yeah.
Yeah, like that kind of brought me closer to that place again.
So part of me is like, well, you know,
the TVA, you can't use powers unless you shut off all the security.
So, like, maybe if we could get back out in the field,
there's, like, more opportunities for that.
But at the same time, I'm like, clearly, like,
everything worth happening right now is at the TVA.
So I cannot wait for next week.
Yeah, I'm not even asking for it to be, like, mischievous or devious in any way.
That's not even what I'm really asking for.
It's just more fun.
A little bit more personality.
Like there's some glimmer of that old Loki charm in there.
I guess that's the one simple way to put it.
Look, that old charm would be nice.
Yeah, no, totally.
Some charm.
It's a glimmer in his eye or something like that because he is the most,
even Mobius at times, and I think they confronted that nicely in this episode
because he's so removed from everything, can have that.
Whereas Loki is like so aware of everything going on and his involvement in all that.
that, yeah, I think he is burdened.
With glorious purpose?
With glorious consequences.
All righty, guys, well, what did you think about this episode?
Leave your thoughts down below.
What would you rate it?
I would give this, like, a solid.
I mean, I liked that.
I loved it.
I was like a 10 out of 10.
I loved it.
Yeah, I was going 9-7.
Like, I was, muw.
Big fan.
Nothing's perfect.
Going 10.3, all right?
Just even a little better than perfect.
I would really remove from it, man.
I thought that was, like, one of the most, that was, like, genuinely, like, it was
exciting and rare as the day I say with anything with Disney Plus shows, especially, like, that was
actually not just, a lot of times it's like, oh, exciting, intriguing, I'm gripped, but I rarely
say suspenseful.
And, like, that was actually, like, this is, this is intense.
Yes, this is suspenseful shit.
I don't know what's going to happen, and there are surprises that just.
kept happening like and and it wasn't like fucking easter egg surprises you know it was it it was
serious and it ended in a way like i just don't expect yeah um and i i thought that was actually
actually suspenseful and i i i don't think i've said that for any of the disney plus show
episodes yeah not even loki episode one no season one um i don't i don't even think i said that for
season one it's got tension it's got suspense and it beautifully uses the disconcertion of all the
timey whimey strangeness like it has that eerieness that only this kind of sci-fi can bring you
that then like when you have those moments that's like you know rafa going down the hall or whatever
like those read as more traditional horror but yeah there's just there's yeah that's 70s paranoia there
are all those like subtle stretch and crush zooms that they do like there's so much they do to
to just make you feel like everything is off somehow and i think that is beautifully rendered here
and also accentuates every single other emotional flavor they go for.
Loki's back on top, my number one MCU show again.
Hondo P.
I'm just hoping it sticks to sixth.

Okay.
Write me a scene.
Only dialogue
of them
encountering each other
of them doing purge night together
where a huge conflict
arises between them
halfway through the scene
between
them in the middle of the scene
that may be the destruction of their friendship
oh drama
oh this is going to be heavy doc
all right let's see what goes down here
let's see what's going on people
it's not letting me scroll okay here we go
it's just building suspense exterior purged night
abandoned alley night
street lights flicker and the distant sounds of
chaos reverberated through the valley
the alley somewhere close
we hear the sounds of Geo's engine purring
you gotta do this racist style John
okay
am I fleaer who's
whose race in my obscuring
all right
Ricardo this is nuts
never thought I'd see the day
where we'd be teaming up for the purge.
And you as Madhatter, bold choice.
Ricardo, with a rose question is Tis smirking.
Johnny Debtzda, my friend.
You know, you as Dr. Strange, is pretty ironic.
Especially given what you're planning tonight, man.
Everybody has the advice.
A few pirated movies won't hurt anyone.
Besides, I need enough movies to last me the year.
Flav.
I might be anti-Mexam.
medical science and a conspiracy theorist, but pirated movies.
That's crossing the line, I say.
Come on, Ricardo, it's the purge.
And, hey, didn't you just hotwire the Gio?
I owe a lot of money, especially to my mom's.
Need to save every penny.
But pirating, that's someone's hard work, man.
Look, I understand that.
And honestly, I didn't want to bring this up.
But you're constantly talking about your STD.
And yet you won't see a doctor that someone's health we're talking about.
Hey, it's my choice.
At least I don't keep secrets about having a girlfriend and a boyfriend.
What's going to happen that they find out tonight, man?
That's personal.
Ricardo, how did you even find out?
Am I ways, you're not the only one with tricks up his sleeve, I say.
I know.
I need to sort it out.
I just can't bear the thought of it.
losing either of them. And I can't bear
the thought of you stealing artists' hard work.
Plus, I must
I might love churros and burritos.
But I have valued.
So what's that you?
You heathens out there
enjoying your churros.
So what now?
We go our separate ways tonight.
Look,
Cleve, I cherish our friendship.
But this, this might be the breaking point.
Suddenly, the distant roar of an approaching gang interrupts their confrontation.
We need to move now.
Agreed.
Let's survive the night and deal with our issues tomorrow.
The two make a hasty retreat.
Their unresolved conflict looming over them as they navigate the deadly night all gather.
Oh, my God.
That was brilliant.
Yeah, man.
I think every script should be written by Chad.
If you want good comedy, Chad GPT is unbeatable.
It's just terrific stuff.
My favorite line is I might look churros and burritos, but I have values.
Yeah, you can't have values if you're chero and burrito eater.
That's just the heathen food right there.
Oh, that's my favorite.
Yeah, I really wish I could ask the machine what it was thinking about when it wrote that line.
Let's ask it.
What do you mean by I might love?
Churros and burritos, but I have values.
That sounds like people who generally love churros and burritos usually have a low moral standard.
I apologize for that oversight.
The intention was to contrast the lighter humorous aspects of Ricardo's character.
character with a more serious stance on movie piracy, but the phrasing was off.
It was not meant to imply anything negative about people who enjoy churros or burritos.
Let's me rephrase it.
They've rephrased it to, look, I might have my quirks, but I stand firm on some things.
Piracy is where I draw the line.
You're right, Chad, GBT.
This rewrite is just not as funny.
Yeah, yeah.
Sometimes, you know, you've got to smear a community of, you know, food enjoyers to get the comedy.
Okay.
I understand.
Finding the right balance between humor and clear communication can be a challenge.
If you have any other specific directions or ideas for the scene, I'm here to help.
Otherwise, thank you for the feedback, and I'm glad to assist it further in any way I can.
Can it end with Ricardo leaving the scene to go fart, but he doesn't want to specify that.
absolutely all right let's see let's see what they do all right to pick it up from the end
fleb we need to move now agreed let's survive tonight and deal with our issues tomorrow as they
prepared to navigate the dangerous street chariotes suddenly looks uncomfortable actually
uh flev i need to um take a quick detour you know like personal reasons just giving like
even like 30 minutes
30 miles
30 30 miles
really
now yes now it's urgent it's urgent
with that Ricardo hastily rushes off leaving
Flev chucking to himself
as he imagines the true reason for Ricardo's hasty
much better ending yeah yeah that's true
it's an Easter right yeah that's quality
well we did it
we did it guys thanks guys we love you both
dearly
stay safe on perch night
It's.
