Episode Date: June 14, 2016

On this week's episode, the #SBE2016 rolls on with the 1991 cult classic, Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead! As the guys chat about this "We Love Movies" selection, questions come up including: What was with that deleted story arc where one of the kids killed the babysitter? Is that teenage kid really flying the Confederate flag? And what is with that Mr. Egg fella? PLUS: What if Star Wars never took off and George Lucas was forced into menial office work? It might sound... a little something... like this. Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead stars Christina Applegate, Joanna Cassidy, Josh Charles, Keith Coogan, David Duchovny, Kimmy Robertson, Danielle Harris, and John Getz; directed by Stephen Herek.Unlock Exclusive Content!: http://www.patreon.com/wehatemovies See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And on today's program, we're going back to the great decade that was the 1990s. We're talking, Don't Tell Mom the Babysitters Dead. I'm Andrew Jupin. Stephen Sadek. Eric Sisker. And we hate movies. Hello everyone. Welcome to We Hate Movies on the Side Show Network.

Thank you for tuning in, as always. This week, the summer blockbuster extravaganza rolls on. We're talking about Stephen Herrick's 1991 film. Don't tell Mom, the babysitter's dead. I think this might be my favorite of all Kid Power movies. Well, because it's like Kid Power with just the right. Splash of raunch. Well, and also elbow grease.

You get to work. You clean that house. So I appreciate that message. Well, yeah, you're right. There's work ethic in this film, for sure. We're getting jobs. We're cleaning houses. We're learning how to cook waffles. We're cutting our mullets at the end. We're getting that mullet right off. Thank God. And, you know, right out in front, I dig this movie. I dig this movie too. And, you know, I just want to say that up front.

You know why? It was the mobs. Oh, yeah. The pitchforks and the torches and whatnot. I don't even at the mafia. The mafia doesn't like when you talk about Christine. Don't talk about Christine Applegate that way. Oh, hey, I love the filmography of talented director Stephen Herrick. Well, while we're talking about the mob, you know, special shout out to friends of the show, the Costa Nostra. Dude, we've said it before and we will continue to say it. We hate movies. It's a mob-friendly show. This is the safe space

for the secret underground crime units. Yeah, we are firmly pro-mafia. This episode's brought to you by the mafia. Use promo code WHM. Getting $5 of your first hit. Or like protection money. Get protection money back, I guess.

If the mafia was really involved, we'd be doing better than some other podcasts. Do with that what you will. Dude, so I got to tell you, I know that this is like a a very special movie for a lot of people. My wife goes,

hey, what movie you guys doing next week? I go, don't tell mom the babysitters. Do divorce papers. Almost written up. Right, right. A glass breaks. Before the title was even out my mouth, she couldn't believe it.

And I couldn't believe it either. But this is, it's going to be a little bit of a we love movie situation this week. Because I've seen this movie. I don't know about you guys. 8,000 times. At least. It's a basketball short.

You want to talk about summer? this is a fat kid summer classic oh yeah it's it's everything you want and to that end about like raunchy your kid power here's why i mean we're smoking cigarettes we're smoking a ton of weed in this movie drinking beer drinking beer left and right we're getting felt up by 40 year old man at our office making chili dogs oh making tons of chili dogs uh so for those of you unfamiliar i guess because i feel like oh there's tons because this is a generational thing If you weren't around when people gave a shit about this movie You probably don't give a shit about this movie And if you were probably a little older than us You probably don't give a shit about this movie Also that it's a real like window in time picture

Yeah I mean so this the movie is about Christina Applegate's mother is a monster Yeah this woman sucks and decides to leave like Her four kids just like Is it four it's a five? Is it five hold on let's probably see Christina Applegate the metal head the pretty boy, the girl from the latter Halloween sequels,

and then the little turd kid who I thought was a Culkin for 45 minutes. Right, so it's five. That's five kids. And they all live in a shoe. Is that right? They live in a pretty sweet, like, country farmhouse. Where's this taking place, by the way? It's got to be California.

Yeah, it's Los Angeles. I think it's like the outer rim of Los Angeles. Oh, so she decides to leave for two months to go to Australia. Down Under, she says. Her boyfriend's paying for the trip, okay? Yeah, who you never see. Uh-huh. Yeah, why can't we cast this cool guy?

I mean, you'd have to cast Jim Belushi, right? You'd have to just... Oh, man. That's a separate movie that I want. Like, I'm taking you away from your rotten kids. Hong Kong. Getting the convertible, babe. We're going down under.

Oh, man. Good day, mate. Oh, gee, I'm going to throw up. Dude, I'm sure. You know, we got a lot of listeners in Australia. I'll tell you what, Australians listening. You see Jim Belushi hit your shores. You got to let us know, ASAP.

Yeah, let us know how many kangaroos he eats. Gee, you put these things on a big old potato roll. Put some spicy mustard on them. It's great. It would be great because it would be like the inverse of Crocodile Dundee. Oh, I love it. That's how you remake that movie. Fat American Pig Ruins Australia.

And instead of... Also called Johnny Depp's Vacation. So how do you think? thwart the villains instead of being outdoorsy and manly like Crocodile Dundee, what would he do to thwart the villains? He would just throw money at the problem. That's kind of how we roll. Maybe some physical comedy, a well-timed fall. Oh yeah, a classic

American pratfall, that would do it. You think he'd get arrested for like urinating on a Yahoo Sirius Memorial? I don't, I think maybe. I mean, he's a great filmmaker. Jim Belushi or Yahoo! Young Einstein, right? Right? All-Cy listeners.

It's classic. It's classic. I will say, man, those first two Crocodile Dundee movies? Special place in my heart. Wait, and how many are there? Three. Okay.

I saw that third one in theaters. I boycotted it. He's like an animal wrangler or like a stuntman in Hollywood or some such. Is he Berwin in that movie? No. I'm thinking of the crocodile. film that he had. Well, there was, of course, Crocodile Hunter Collision Course.

Uh-huh, which is what you want. Wait, what? There was a Crocodile Hunter movie. And was that with Jay Leno and Pat Morita? No, that's just a movie called Collision Close. No, it's crocodile. Steve Irwin watches collision course. It's kind of like a mystery science theater. It's him and a crocodile.

A puppet crocodile. Yeah, I love it. Dude, Steve Irwin was a fucking treasure man. I loved that guy. I was heartbroken when he passed away. Jim Belushi's still walking around FYI God God and cardiologist by the way Scratch at their head to that one

What we're saying is God and cardiologist Thank you for keeping them alive And keep it up So she goes to Australia Yeah They get a babysitter And then we're going to talk about the rest of the movie Right well

And I realize this the other day Last night watching this And again you know I've seen this a thousand times But I never really thought about it It's really great that this babysitter dies almost immediately. Yes.

But quickly, there's a cartoon intro. Oh, right. Which is a classic of, you know, your 1987 to 1991 comedy. It's like, you're right to say like 91 being the back end of this. Because this is like, well, this whole movie. It's almost unacceptable. It's totally unacceptable in Weekend at Bernie's 2 because that's like 93, 94 or whatever. Definitely.

But like this whole movie feels like it's 1989. Yes. What was the same? Slickers, because that's got a big, fucking stupid cartoon opening. So you're right. City Slickers is like 93, maybe? Is it really? I think something like that.

So then what is Curly's Gold? I mean, I'm thinking, I think Curly's Gold might be a 93, 94. Does it have like a fun like... Oh, you're right. City Slickers won, 91. City Slickers dose the legend of Curly's Gold, 94. So the cartoon intro fever was still alive. Can't fever.

The babysitter that will eventually be. dead in the cartoon intro I don't know if you guys caught this or not I stuck around for the credits waiting for Thanos Dude you know what You were right to do so Eric because you never know When in cinema history Thanos is going to rear his

burnt hot dog face You never know And turns out Dan Castanella TV's Homer Simpson plays the babysitter In the cartoon intro I prefer to think of him as TV's the genie From Aladdin

Oh fuck I was just going to say TV's Grandpa Simpson. That's how I always think of him. Oh, fighting hellfish. What, but what the fuck? Like, as far as I could tell, there was money to throw at these.

There were little cartoon studios that all went under. But, like, Dan Castellaneta is not, like, saying things in this intro. It's kind of like, he's kind of just doing crazy cat lady from the Simpsons. He's kind of on Frank Welker's

here a little bit. You know what I mean? Professional noise maker, Frank Welker. We love Frank Welker. We'd love to have him on the show. Well, the thing is, like, he might have, like, bumped Dan from his turf or something. Or maybe it was just the one time Dan beat him out. Like, he made the right noise at the right time. And, like, you know, you see.

Well, you know what? A squeak in the right place could change history. At the Cassin-Olletta household, it turns into, like, the insider for a little while they're getting all these phone calls it's really dark and scary it's just like all right we're never doing that again i'm talking in everything i'm ever doing didn't he also i was trying to think of something uh recently that we did where dan castellanetta like kind of had a role and it was like you have no business being in this oh it wasn't something we did on the show but we've kind of talked about it he's in that fantastic four reboot for half a second oh right he's like the science fair greater teacher whatever it's stupid

so yeah so cartoon opening cut to I'm going to Australia cut to here's this babysitter Cut to It's a really nice house But it's a fucking shithole Oh this is at the moment It's a pig style

This is hoarders Yeah This is big time There's dead cats in this house We're talking stacks of newspapers On this staircase And this woman's cool with it And I mean like look

Being a single mother's tough You got five kids. That's a rough road. I know. I'd be tempted to kill at least half of them. You sell a couple, you know? Yeah, definitely. Get a pretty penny for that. Hire a fucking housekeeper. There you go.

Solved your problem. Don't go to Australia with your house in shambles, lady. Like, you got to, you want to come home to a clean house, or you'll leave with a clean house. She's praying that she comes back and this house is in ashes. Or did she need this? This is an insurance scam? Totally, dude. This is like the plot of a fucking 1940s film noir, right?

she's paid this babysitter to light this house up and kill those kids but the woman died before she could get the job done you know if you hire the right babysitter five deaths five dead children equals five life insurance policies all cashing out at the same time could go to australia no law in australia it's down with me johnny you gotta come with me we'll make a new life down under sure we'll only have to kill 50 I'm not saying we have to. It's just part of the deal to get me down there. It's the 1940s and that's what we do.

It's the sport. But yeah, right? I mean, like, this interesting note about murder, the early drafts of this film, which I didn't know until today, had one of the kids... Oh, wait, kill the babysitter and it was a who-done-it. What? Walter.

Wait, one of them definitely did it? Or maybe that's a, it was implied for a while. Or is this an internet legend? It might be an internet legend. Wait, now, now on We Hate Movies, we like to cite sources, 250-plus episodes. Tell me, Steve, did you get this on the IMDB Tribune? I am not sure.

I don't remember it. They kind of, this ain't a cool news. Is it Wikipedia? An older boy in school told me. He then told you he would. was going to bring the code in tomorrow. That fucking liar. No, I don't remember. It was either

Wikipedia or Julian Assange, one of those guys. Well, that's why he was locked in that embassy for a while. Oh, no. The babysitter news is happening. It's breaking. He would have to be. Christopher Lambert

Julian Assange movie, come on. He'd be better than Benedict Cumberbatch. That movie's rotten. Just make a movie where it's like the future, like the future of Assange. That could be the title, too. Oh, sure. It's just Christopher Lambert playing him in the future of how they think it might go.

Yeah, yeah. You don't know. Yeah. Oh, you know. Dying in prison, who knows? That's weird. That she was possibly murdered. Yeah, the idea was like it was basically like, oh.

And that's why in the beginning, that's why the babysitter has a moment with each of the kids fucking them over. Oh, no. To give a motive? Yeah. Oh, right. Oh, what the fuck? And in this sequence, there's also that scene where she goes into Kenny's room. Oh.

And it's just too extreme. Dude, that's, I love that. Whoa. I love that part because it's after she's like, she makes Danielle, whatever her name is, the girl from a couple of those later Halloween sequels. And she's also then in the Halloween remakes. she is like you know kind of like the tomboy plays baseball Danielle Harris she's like oh you're going to dress like a girl and all of a sudden she's in this like ridiculous Easter dress

the what's the little the little turd kid has to stop watching TV yeah you have to go do a book report little turd kid in future episode Mr. Nanny by the way oh he's one of the kids of Mr. Nanny I believe so nice I didn't recognize him I seriously thought this was a Culkin for 45 minutes He looks like a Culkin, and he also looks like a gremlin a little bit. I'll buy it. And then you got, like, this other boy who's kind of like the handsome, suave kid.

He's like forced to... Yeah, he's like making out in this car, which is weird. He's getting to 15th base in this car, and this lady breaks it up. Listen, the one time this kid's making a mistake, though, he's listening to fucking Frank Sinatra. Come on. What 13 to 14-year-old girl cares about Franks Anatra? Yeah, and he's calling this girl a moon goddess. Oh, man.

Man, not the pedal's still over. So, yeah, he's forced to, like, break up with her, at least, like, send her home or whatever. Yeah, and then, yeah, Kenny, who's played by somebody. It's the dude. Hilariously. You are correct. He's the dude from Adventures in Babysitting. Keith Coogan.

Oh, yes, definitely. He's also in one of my favorite movies, Toy Soldiers. What's that movie? Is that Phil Hartman? No, this is... Oh, I'm thinking of small soldiers. Dude, that's exactly what I was thinking of, but I knew I was wrong, so I kept my mouth shut.

Wow, good job. It came out the same year as this, so in the early 90s, it's a prep school with Sean Ashton and Lugosz Jr. as a hard-nosed whatever, Dean. It's invaded by, like, Latin militants for some reason. It's got that bang and soundtrack.

Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah. I remember that. Nice. That might be a state too. It might be a stay tuned. He's not home, but yeah, it's hilarious. Like Eric mentioned, she opens the door to, like, yell at him. And, like, she just gets hit in the face with weed smoke and, like, heavy metal that's been left on.

And here's a very... And pornography on the walls. Oh, right. There's pornography. There's a bunch of, like, Slayer posters and whatever else. And a Confederate flag. Is it really? Yeah.

He is flying the fucking stars and bars in bars in this. Rebel yell. I don't understand. Dude, it's just right there for all to see. Because he's like a lovable pothead whatever, and then there's that play. I think it's the anti-establishment thing, you know? Yeah. It's sort of like why you wear the swastika to symbolize losers, right?

I read that about what, the sex pistols? Sure. That's the reason why they. Johnny Rotten did that. Or no, Sid Vicious, I believe. Sid Viscis. Right, R-R-P-D. American Hero.

Sid Vicious. Well, the British hero, I think. So, and Christina Abilgate's deal is all of her, like, friends, she just graduated high school, and all of her friends are, uh,

going to Europe because they're all rich kids. Yeah, which I was trying to figure out, like, she's hanging with all these rich kids, but they themselves are not rich. Correct. Yes. But this house is like banging, man.

I mean, if it wasn't such a pigsty, it's a pretty cool house. Yeah, but they, do mention how they're out in the boonies so maybe they're far away from their friends I don't I don't know yeah it's just amazing that these like nice rich girls would be friends such a peasant as Christina Apple well I guess she was cool enough you know you work hard enough in this country you can get somewhere because remember kids poor is cool well the mother also on her way out she's like yeah buy kids do the dishes blah blah blah

yeah the little boy is like eight years old not even like six he's like are you call me every week mom and she's like mom's on vacation i'll see you i'll see you i'll see you when i see this is like i'm leaving forever right yeah i i'm shocked she comes back i mean i think it's only because of like a weird turn of heart i think she was going to leave these kids oh you think so she's gonna go like live in the bush yeah no i think the the the the the coke money ran out and like oh and like basically her boyfriend jim belushi got like uh Australian easy ridered essentially, like they were sleeping on the street and somebody bashed his head in?

Sorry, babe, I'm getting my brains bashed in with an Australian rock. All I did would walk around playing this didgerie do everywhere I win. Yep, oh yeah. I got all this Coke, buddy. Oh, no. Come on, Australians. Meet America's

most successful drug dealer. Do, do, do do. I'll buy you two foster, slit his throat. Fosters, it's Australian for... Well, I guess I go home. I guess I'm going to go back to my Northern California farmhouse. Jim Belushi finally got that Columbia necktie mentioned in canines.

Totally. So, the babysitter dies in her sleep. All the kids are like, hey, let's confront her, blah, blah, blah. We're going to tell this all brought off. And she's just dead. Now, there's a problem I have with this. Uh-huh. One of my most cherished video store memories is the box cover for this movie where these kids are out on the front porch, they're looking down, and this lady's little old lady legs are just up in the air.

This movie needs to have them, like, yelling at her, and then she's like, And then she's like, and another thing, you little monster. And then she just falls backwards like a cartoon character. Legs up in the air, dude. This is a disappointing death for the titular dead babysitter. But the thing is, I think they're trying to limit the amount of class one felonies that happen in this film. There are plenty of shit. Oh, sure.

Like, you know, inciting a death versus what they actually do to the corpse, which isn't a real fucking crime. Oh, you could be doing some sweet time for this. So, yeah, Christina Applegate walks in, like, hey, you know, Mrs. Whoever. Sturak, which also, by the way, the babysitter in the movie should not have a name. They just should keep calling her the babysitter. So anyway, she's like, oh, Mrs. Sturach, we got to talk to you. And this lady's like dead knitting. She falls on the floor, which is like kind of funny, but like not that funny.

And it's like, oh, so what do we do? And of course, the whole conundrum is like, well, we can't call the police. Mom's going to come back. Blobbidi-blow. So what do they do? They do one of the biggest laughs of the movie for me. Speaking of the mafia. They give her a California raisins funeral.

If you don't know what this is. This is when you pull up a dirty old California raisins twin bed sheet over an old lady's corpse to cover her face. Well, I mean, you know what? If things don't go well for me in a little bit, that might be where I'm headed. Should I be looking up California Raisins' bed sheets on eBay? I think you should, yes. That's awesome. I didn't even notice it was California Raisins.

I think we should all get California Raisin's Funerals. Sure, why the hell not? It's cheap as hell. And you're in like a shallow grave like two and a half feet down. Of course, yeah, because we're going to stuff you in a suitcase after that. Because that's what they do to her, right? It's like a trunk. They put her in this trunk, which also, I'm thinking,

why do you have this trunk in the first place? It's probably Kenny's, you know what I mean? It's a serial killer trunk, man. Or maybe it was hers. She brought her stuff over and, you know, I'm trying to go to get it. I always travel with a wooden box big enough to fit me if I'm folded accordingly. They sent my

husband Johnny home in it. Oh, God. They could have. So they like, they stuff are in this thing. And I could have used... We don't see this scene. We don't see this scene. I could have used some weekend at Bernie's-esque corpse

crammon. I love corpse cramming. It's a favorite part about committing murder. Well, the weird thing is the little girl, uh, uh, the The baseball player girl Halloween's like, let's hack her head off. And I'm like, wait, where are you coming from? She made too many horror movies.

Dude, that was a fucking improvd line. That was pretty creepy. She just shouted it out. She's like, I'm sorry, that's just natural. She's like, oh, should we call the cops? Should we just, let's cut her fucking head off? And I'm like, oh, okay. Christina Applegates like, one step at a time.

Let's make her our zombie. Quiet, Jeffrey Dahmer. Let's eat her. Oh, that's one of the kids in this house, right? There's so many kids, you never know. Yeah, there's a little Jeffie Dahmer there. I think there might be people under the stairs. Oh, that's possible.

You get, man, listen, these like little kid critters you got run around the inside of your walls. Yikes, that's a real problem. Well, you could, like, see a dark power coming over these kids and then, like, start eating people and stuff like that. Oh, easily. If this movie was directed by an Italian in the mid-70s, that's how this movie would go. Guaranteed, that's how this movie would go. they try to barrier and then like they awaken some demon and then they're all possessed yes exactly and they all fucking butcher and eat josh charles later in the movie because yeah applegate doesn't

get it she's older it's got something to do with a menstrual cycle maybe no it's dude here it is it only affects you if you haven't lost your virginity oh nice yeah that's what all them kid zombie movies do that's how you justify a kid zombie yeah They just take this crate. They drive it up to, like, the morgue and ring the doorbell and kind of just drive away. And these two dudes just find it. And they write, like, nice old lady died of natural causes or whatever. It's kind of a national impugns vacation a little bit.

Yeah. Yes. Oh, that's right. Oh, I forgot it. Where do they leave that? I mean, they leave it either in a morgue or something. I can't remember, but that rings true to me. But here's the thing.

Like, the rest of the movie should be them being worried about. the fuzz coming down because two things one obviously you can't do that to a dead body two they are stealing this car like it's all right like they killed this woman for that car i think it's what you're saying yes well that that's the story that i would if i'm a prosecutor that's what i'm going down oh i throw the book at him christina ablegate does have a line like i loved that car meanwhile it's like that weird 1940s serial batman shit car that he drives around in because they couldn't license the Batmobile for whatever strange reason. So Batman just drives around in a fucking town car.

That's what it looks like. Or something like maybe a Munster would drive, like a member of a Munster family. Or maybe a guy in a film noir trying to pull off an insurance scam. Oh, it's her mom's boyfriend's car. Yeah, her mom's boyfriend, Walter Neff. By the way, I love that we posit that she's got a 1940s noir boyfriend and Jim Oh, yeah, man. You got to keep all your options open.

Hey, are you two-timing me or what? Two-time traveling. We've been two-timed. She's trying to work us against each other. Let's kill her. Okay. Hey, you talk funny. Pot call on the kettle, Blackjack.

Yeah, so she's dead. And then it's they, so the whole thing is they realize that this woman has been dropped off at the morgue with the money the mother gave to the woman, you know, to the babysitter for, you know, to sustain this family for two months. But here's, and they're like, oh man, all this money, I imagine with this fucking shit he'll mother, it's like 40 bucks. You know what I mean? Like, just

enough for approximately four to five, 1991 large pizzas. Make it last shit heads. Or just like three things of Skippy peanut butter and a whole lot of wonder bread. Hey, a lot of cheap sandwiches. See,

these koalas don't come cheap. So Christina Applegate Right Has to get a job Well first they flip a pizza box For the Mama Celeste I got a mad craving

For some Mama Celeste Sweet thin crust Pemperoni By the way I saw this movie 8,000 times And I ate 16,000 Mama Celest While watching it

I'll tell you this If it's one thing I've been impressed about Over the decades How good Mama Celest looks No, no, the stain power, right? That's what you're saying. I was going to say the evolution of the quality of frozen pizza. Really?

It's just getting better, dude. Have you been having Mama Celeste? I've had Mama Celeste. I've had Paul Newman. I've had Amy. I've had them all. Are you getting visited by the Red Baron or what, man? No, no, no, no, no.

We don't do Red Baron in this house. That was the only guy that visited my house, besides the Mama. I think they were married. Paul Newman was their farm hand. assistant. Yeah, Mama Celeste was married to the Red Baron. And they lived in Tombstone. Yeah.

We actually, we did a few visits to Tombstone in my day. I've never had a tombstone. It's kind of the worst of the bunch. Is it really? It is. Honestly, I'd let Red Baron in this house before I let a fucking tombstone frozen pie. What is the best one? And a side question.

How is Mama Celeste today? Mama Celeste today I think is still totally fine It's been a few years I'll tell you one of my personal faves man It's a tie Amy's and Paul Newman Like Newman's own frozen pizzas

Not bad All right But Mama Celeste is in this movie She makes a camera So they flip her Because And this is you can tell This family's on hard times

Man there's not a fucking coin between them I mean Mama Celeste is kind of currency At that point Hey, you got any coin, kid? Yeah, yeah, you got five Mama Celeste. All right, I'll kill your baby's set it for 35 lodge pizzas from Mama Celeste. Cheese or higher. I'm not going to have one of those sauce-only pizzas.

Oh, man, sauce-only pizza. Which I imagine existed during wartime. Yeah, you had to. Well, all the cows were out fighting. Before the victory gardens grew in. The cows we said to WW2? Yeah, dude, those were the greatest bovine generation. Yeah, I was at the battle of Dunkirk.

So what? I wrote a cow in the battle. I gave that a cow in early retirement and had a hamburger. Dude, you want to confuse the enemy right up to the battlefield on a bunch of cows? He won't know what's coming. So they flipped the pizza. box, and it lands that Christina Applegate has to get a job in order to support the whole family. And it reminded me of a little bit of hippie lore from the Catskills. Now, I don't know if this is true or if I was messed with.

Okay. Because I tried to find evidence of this on the Internet today, and I couldn't find it. Could this have something to do with the pipe? No, but I'm intrigued. Yikes. Well, I'm just saying, you know, you. You get your stories crossed. Oh, yeah.

Well, the pipe's always ever present. All right, so tell this story. I'm sorry. Well, no, no. The idea, you know, like a house of hippies, right? Yeah, like a commune, maybe. Sort of, yeah, but like a micro-commune, right? Bad smell.

One house of hippies. And one of them would work for one year to sustain everyone. They'd be the mule of the year, and then the next year someone else had to get a job. Mule of the year! The theory is then you would only have to work one year out of five or so. Interesting. Yeah. So we can maybe start that up here.

That's not bad. Yeah, right? We'll be living up each other's ass, though. That's the problem. And you'll be in slime and grime and, you know. If that story ended with people getting their face bashed in with pipes, then that would have been the Wonderland killings, which is actually a true story. Well, that's not what's going on here.

I do think that that might have happened. But what's going on here is you go, one woman. working for everyone where Kenny could obviously get a job. This kid. One of these other kids, this fucking little Zach, the moon goddess kid, you could get a work paper. Or a paper route? I think that's what

Eric meant by work paper. No, I meant like when you get like a permit to work when you're 16 or under. Yeah, yeah. Those are called working papers. Right. You can mow lawns, man. You can, listen, the littler kids can build a lemonade stand. That's adorable $5

a glass. Yeah, sure. I mean, that's You need his fucking water and a pitcher. Hey, kid, this ain't lemonade. This is, is that, is this, is this Mama Celeste juice? Yeah, now all of a sudden we're in Child's Play 2. Or a problem child, too. Wrong movie. It's all the same.

No, but that's, it's the part of the movie that always kills me. Because, like, Christina Applegate is like, all right, I'll get a job because I lost the Mama Celeste pizza toss of 1991. So, Sam, you stay home and watch these fucking mongoise. Rolls. Kenny, by the way. Kenny, yes. But then they're all like taking advantage of her and like treating her like shit.

Because they're all shit, you're little fucking monsters. They're all little evil dead. Not evil dead. Dead alive kids. Diagnosis, bad parenting. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Because even at the beginning, they're stealing from the mom. Zach is like, oh, I got to buy Melissa a new chain.

And the mom's like, are you stealing from me, you little piece of shit? See you in Australia. Oh, no, I won't, because I'm leaving you all behind. Me and Jim are going down under. Yeah, you better believe I'm going down under. I heard about it in a song. You know, men at work? I thought you meant Jimmy Buffett.

He was just stupid. Oh, that Australian guy, Jimmy Buffett. Which way to Margaritaville in Australia? I sure hope when we get to Perth, Austin. Australia, there's a cheeseburger in paradise. I'm going to be starving. Dude, I did some boardwalk mini-golf. You need some more songs.

It was, they had like the, they had like the Jimmy Buffett XM station on or whatever the fuck. Put a golf ball through my fucking head. I heard cheeseburger in paradise like six times and it's like an hour-long game. The fuckers got like nine songs. But like, what about songs inspired by Jimmy Buffett? motherfucker, like, you know what I mean? Who else? Inspired by?

Yeah, music by and inspired by Jimmy Buffett. He inspired someone? It's a compilation record called Songs to Kill Yourself, too. Or just be lazy in a pool or something. Oh, yeah, the lazy in a pool playlist. Dude, we ate at a cheeseburger

in paradise at the Cancun International Airport. Oh, I got drunk. Are they doing diarrhea? No, I got I got some, no, I did not get diarrhea, thank God. Are you sure? I'm pretty sure.

Now you got me doubting myself. Think back. I ordered something that they called, like, something to the effect of like a premium margarita or something like that. And it's like this frozen thing. And they're like, oh, yeah, it comes with like three different kinds of tequila in it. It was just a brown slush puppy, a huge brown slush puppy. Did it come with dipping sauce?

Dude, we had guacamole made table side. What are you kidding me? At the airport? Yeah, dude, I ate airport table side guacamole and somehow wasn't dead when we landed at JFK. But yeah, I got so drunk at this cheeseburger in Paradise. It was awesome. I love getting the buzz on before a flight. Oh, yeah.

You're going to go down. That's the way to go down there. It's true. So Christina Applegates's first job that she gets to continue talking about. don't tell mom the babysitter's dead She's making like chili dogs At this like terrifying clown hot dog palace Oh disgusting

I mean it's just your classic like 90s riff On McDonald's or whatever And everyone's got to act like an asshole You know what I mean? We can't just have a fucking fast food restaurant That's a fast food restaurant And everybody hates their life Like a Wendy's or a McDonald's or a burger game

Well and that's the thing right Let's just use the example of McDowell's from coming to America. That's how you do it. Or fast times at Ridgemont High. Yes. Yeah, exactly. It's just a Burger Shack, whatever. Totally. But no, the guy's got to be like, you got to do it

with a smile. I'm surprised no one was wearing a clown-sized tat or anything stupid to that ilk. It's a, it's clown dog is the name of the, and their mascot is John Wayne Gasey. Who was a dude who, you know, did, was

a child's clown for birthday parties. killed people and also I'm taking a guess loved hot dogs oh you could tell isn't there a photo of him like shaking hands with Nancy Reagan or something I believe it is Nancy Reagan and it's him as a clown I think isn't it

Oh I don't know about that That might be a secret service issue But he did have hot dog grease all over his hands There is a picture of him and Sean Conner and he said you're the clown now dog that clown That's how they got it Mommy that clowns smelled like hot dogs

I'm hungry now mommy Feed me mommy He's really chatting up Ron Jr. You noticed that? But this is You're right Here's the other thing that annoys me about it I think you didn't just mention it

But it's like the boss Who loves that he operates A fucking hot dog restaurant Yeah. This dude's name is Mr. Egg, first of all. That's not what it used to be two towns over. I'm doing that much. Gee, Mr. Egg, you should look like a guy who's picture I saw in the newspaper last year.

Gee, Mr. Egg, your name sure sounds fake. Yeah, I want the Mr. Egg movie, dude, because that is... You can't handle it. You think you could watch that movie? You can't handle it. That's him, like, applying for, like, a... a food service industry job and then looking around the kitchen.

Yeah, Egg. Mr. Egg. He fucking Kaiser Soze at the Hot Dog Palace? Yes. Dude, I think Mr. Egg, you can also see the Mr. Egg prequel as the protagonist in the German film Necromantic.

That was Mr. Egg's previous employment was fucking dead bodies. It's a living? it's an unliving yeah uh no there's no zombies in that movie uh so yeah she hates this job it's like day one she's working with clickety clack talkity talk josh charles oh whatever he is like a baby in this movie a dreamboat is he no no no but he's you know he's presented as the inoffensive young gentleman a proper suitor for one christina This is three- or post-dead Poets Society.

Was he even in that movie? There's just so many white guys in that movie that I just assume he's in it. Well, that's a white guy movie, Steve. It's a white guy classic. Coming up on TCM. Another white guy classic. Well, I was thinking of ESPN, ESPN classic, the white guy classic, the 1941 basketball finals. He wasn't Dead Poets Society, which was 89.

By the way, this is about as white as it gets, playing a character named Knox Overstreet, Jesus Christ. Knox Overstreet? Knox Overstreet. Probably pronounced, actually, I'm sorry, apologies to the Overstreet family. Actually, probably pronounce Knox Overstreet. But that is a Kaiser-Sose name. That's something you saw off the back of a porcelain plate.

Yeah, it was Knox on a plate And he saw like an overpass in the back room Overstreet Yeah Well now I'm just thinking of like You get fucking Robert Sean Leonard And Josh Charles sharing the screen How did that but not blow your TV out?

Like, oh the fucking white balance is off Ruin one of my tubes In my tube television So she hates working at this hot dog palace There's this obnoxious moment Where she's like Trying to clean this greasy pan. And it's like

it's being made to look like, oh, isn't this job horrible? When the reality is, this girl doesn't know how to clean a pan. It's the infomercial where it's like, isn't it so hard to clean a pan? Use water. It would make a really good thanks Obama gift.

Yeah. I've heard just like dropping this greasy soap fluid everywhere. Exactly. But also, so they're kind of chatting it up. He's talking her up a little bit. He's playing hockey with garbage on the floor, which is always cool. Well, he's having a fun time. He's a guy who really...

He's a fun guy. Because he does the whole like, oh, yeah, you just got to make it fun. Like, this dude kind of loves working in hot dog land or whatever. You got to be careful, man. That's a slippery slope towards hot dog palace lifer. It might be Mr. Egg, you think? Dude, Mr. Egg comes up to this dude one day and he's like, you know, you keep this up, Josh Charles. I could see you becoming my new assistant manager.

Then you're on your way to hot dog hell. And you know what, Josh Charles? I appreciate you haven't reported me to corporate for the phone sex, which I really, really appreciate. That's assistant manager material right there. Yeah, I'm going to need you do phone sex on Saturday. I'm going to need you to call in to do phone sex. They pick up a phone sex shift.

And then slowly he's turning him out, and now he's phone sexing other people. Oh, no. And it's like a whole racket. 1-800 egg or something. Or it's like that movie Compliance. Did you see that movie? No, yeah. It's where...

That's not a movie's not about phone sex. No, it's not about phone sex. But it's about... Well, it's a fast food restaurant. And it's about a dude who calls in. Pat Healy. It's... Yeah, the great Pat Healy in voice only

until the very end of the movie. But it's basically like Pat Healy calls in and starts like making these people do shit over the phone. He pretends to call in to be like, Oh, I'm this guy from the corporate office and we got to check in with blah, blah, blah. And the movie basically turns into like, we suspect this employee of shoplifting. And now you got to take her shirt off because we think she might have money in there. And it's corporate policy that you got to just frisk this little girl.

Based on true events, also turned into an SVU starring Robin Williams. Oh, wow. Well, to tie it back to Dead Poets Society. There you go. So whatever. She quit. First day quitting, by the way. So she quits in the middle of work. And also, like, kind of sticks Josh Charles with the rest of the cleanup.

Like, bye, buddy. She tells Mr. Egg to beat it. Mm-hmm. Oh. It's an egg joke. I get it. So, um, speaking to Mr. Egg and how no one checks backgrounds. Oh, man.

It's just over easy for everyone. She gets this job. We do some good old-fashioned looking for a job in the newspaper. Oh, yeah. We're circling all sorts of things. But she finds one of the fashion company. When you're down there, can I borrow those Help Wanted pages?

It's really hard working on these breadlines. I'm from the 40s. Not much has changed between now and then. Sorry. Speak the pavement. So she finds this listing for like secretary at this like fashion

somethingish business. It's kind of impossible. Like the factory is. there. Yeah, I don't know. The idea of this company is a little scramble for my taste. They do mention, like, there's like a, like, the head office in New York kind of thing. Yeah.

Yeah. So I think this is more maybe the production wing. Right. And this company, what it does is it's not like a traditional fashion whatever. It's like they make uniforms for jobs. So, like, I don't know, like janitor's outfits, waiter, chef uniforms. School uniforms, et cetera, et cetera. And that's the big account that they're working towards, by the way.

Joanna Cassidy's working towards getting a school district on board for uniforms. So she, like, fakes his resume, wears this enormous outfit, all of the fucking clothes. You could put three David Burns in these fucking jackets, man. Oh, man, it takes you right back. This designing women. Nine to five. It's all there. The shoulder pads.

I mean, it's fabulous. They'll be back. Someone's listening to this right now in the future and shoulder pads are the rage. They're like, what are they talking about? They're already here. Oh, this show's so antiquated. God, President Trump's wearing one on TV right now. That's just this fucking hair.

So, yeah, she does the old resume fake out. And it's so impressive. She's about to apply for this receptionist gig, Joanna Cassidy. You're supposed to go to personnel. Yeah, oh, that's a good one. That's on the first floor. There's a big sign, and it says personnel. man if this person like if someone is that condescending to me yeah they're getting a big fat old go fuck yourself this woman is so rude to christina applicant i can't even take it i was getting so revved up man she's just so condescending for no fucking reason and as she's about to say that uh Joanna cassidy's like oh let me see your resume here's this great $37,000 a year in 1991 which i believe is two point

one million dollars. I think that's how that works out. Yeah, I think you're about spot on with that inflation. Say there, you got a good grip going. I thought it was a thousand large, my God. What are you the president? What if you kill my boss and I kill yours? Chris Koss.

The old switcheroo. Strangers on a train. It's kind of unbelievable, and I'll tell you why. Oh, you think so? Well, I'll tell you why. Where I work, you know, we do a lot of of like outreach to like high schools and stuff so like class like classes come to see movies

and things like that during the day you know what a 17 year old kid looks like yes a fucking child a little baby child person okay i apologize to our teen and tween listeners no it's okay because you're supposed to then let's all right christina applegate is not 17 in this movie okay this is this is like at the height of her awesome kelly bundiness i fucking loved Christina Applegate, still do to this day, although that vacation remake fucking P-U and a half.

I did not see it. You're fine. You know what? You're totally fine. I'll probably live my whole life of that scene. Do not, do not see that movie. But she's great. She's totally awesome.

I was actually a big fan of Up All Night with her and Will Arnette. Anyway, she's not 17 years old in this movie. 17-year-olds look like kids because they are kids. There's no way she could walk in and be like, oh, I've worked in this fashion office

in Tokyo, this fashion office in Paris, this that, the other thing, and have this grown woman be like, oh, you'd be fabulous for my executive assistant position. You know what's great about this is we have a little safety net. Maybe she gets past this one woman, right? Joanna Cassidy. Yeah,

we also have these things called social security cards and identification. Well, they do. This company does have a big factory. I'm guessing a lot of people are getting under the table. Oh, you think so?

She has health benefits, though. Later in the movie, she uses health benefits. Not only is she, like, grifting this company for money, she's grifting the health insurance company? Uncle Sam, he's getting grifted, that poor little old patriotic man. Yeah, sure. I'll sell you some social security cards for some Mama Celeste. All right, I'll give you two war bonds for 50 Mama Celeste pie.

Yeah, I'll throw in my identity. I'm not using it. I'm trying to, trying to shed it. The idea of throwing in your own identity to a deal is awesome. Just the sweetened that deal. You got to go in there. Your name is, your name is now Walter Neff. Sure, you could dress it up a little.

Say, Walter's your middle name if all you care. Got to go talk to your boss. Your new boss, Edward G. Robinson. So she takes this job. Yes. before you take that job you got to quit my job for me I want you to go to

Edward D. Robinson's office tell him what's what pretend to be me here take my hat I'll quit my job and you quit yours no wait the other way around Chris cross

we're both unemployed but there's no motive to connect us oh no I'm dead in a pool oh mercy now I just want to watch like old Hollywood classics of course

Don't tell mom the babysitter's dead. Yeah, exactly. Suburban Commando. Sure. Mr. Nanny. Mr. Mom. Why the hell not? Adventures in Babyssey.

All the old classics. I'll tell you what, do you mean the miss is rewatched Adventures of Babysitting not too long ago? Good movie. Never saw it. It's a fun movie, man. Didn't happen in my house. It's another, like, kid power, but like, with a little bit of raunch plot. Get on it. Get on it.

Elizabeth Shue as the babysitter. And a taste of urban terror. With just a healthy dash of casual racism. I was going to say, yeah. There's plenty. Yeah, don't worry. There's plenty of racism to go around. Yeah, so she takes this job.

And, you know, obviously, whatever. Of course, she becomes an ultra success. Well, because she's just, like, grifting this other lead. That's her skill is griff. Right? Yeah. This other like really like the best kid. This is like really a studious and expedient employee.

And she's like, oh, you get to do the big QED report. By the way, this this is a top of the line office because it has Lotus and Word Star. Ooh, I remembered both of those. And a fax machine, which is actually where she meets this lady who is also in Twin Peaks. It's Lucy. Kimmy Robertson, Lucy Moran from Twin Peaks. And also, last week's episode, Speed 2, Cullen Cruise Control, she's the cruise director.

Getting a lot of Kimmy Robertson. Was she in X-Men last time? Because we could maybe retrofit this to have her whole infamography. I don't think so. She may have played Cyclops' mother. Scenes deleted. Yeah, oh, big time, scenes deleted. So, Christina Applegate is introduced to her trying to work the fax machine.

And I just want to highlight this moment for a second Because while she's like trying to figure out the fax machine The dangers of operating a fax machine Exactly because now it's eating the paper And she's like pulling it out I don't know if you guys noticed this But I've noticed it ever since I first saw this movie Oh really?

The fax machine burps Oh yes it does There's a burp sound effect Oh of course there's a burp sound because Yeah You know I'm laughing Because it's got a belly like a little sirelack Little fax lack

Stephen it's almost like Boba fat went into that little fax machine Man that Sarlac doesn't need a burp noise either Now I'm just imagining like really annoying Office boss George Lucas Who like puts a little label maker on the fax machine I call it Sarlac because it ate my fax It's going to be digesting that for thousands of years

Hey Peter Look out for the Sarlac in the fax machine what it eats paper sometimes it eats paper now I'm thinking that this toilet in the men's room on the fourth floor is sarlac too because it ate my wristwatch

whoops there it goes burp you know Meredith over there is a regular job of the hut in the cafeteria hello oh HR why would HR be calling like me.

Oh. Well, while I got you on the line, um, put facilities on. There's an anti-Sarlek toilet. It's always overflowing. Hey, Tom, why don't you shut down all the

manuals in the garbage contractor? Tom. You know what, Barry? I'm not even making a Star Wars reference here. Stop eating my fucking lunch! You fucking asshole, I put George L on it. On the Tupperware. No, there's no Star Wars reference here.

Just fucking stop it. Specialty recipe. I have health issues. I'm beating my fucking lunch. No, it's kind of funny, though. You stole that like a Jawa. I'm still kind of like George Lucas. So, all right, so she's excelling at this job, blah, blah, blah.

And the whole thing is this enormous fucking report. It's like seven pounds. Well, it's a QED report, man. Uh-huh. Whatever that is. I don't know. It's good. You know, it's a thing businesses need for something.

Sure. They got all sorts of facts and figures in there. Well, you know, Cloud City had a QED report. There was a lot of manufacturing. Hey, you know, Peter over there looks a little, and that wheelchair looks a little bit like Lobon. I'm still on HR's hit list for that one. For the fifth time, George,

just because someone is in a wheelchair, doesn't make them a cyborg. Well, that was just imagining. It's basically like Star Wars didn't succeed. He had to, like, go back to rank the regular society. Yeah, yeah, yeah. your stupid Star Wars movie. We remember it.

Man, alternate timeline where Star Wars 77 bombs? Right. Weird. Right. And Lucas is at a clown dog? Oh, hey, Mr. Egg, sorry, I'm late again. Sure hope you don't dock my pay.

And then you'd find out that actually it wasn't written as a trilogy. Yeah, I wrote one movie and it fucking failed. I never had any backstories. I've got to commit suicide off the pier next Friday if things don't turn up. Oh, man. So, yeah, she's taking advantage of Kimmy Richardson. And what she doesn't understand is, like, you don't immediately start getting paid from a job.

So she starts, like, stealing from petty cash. That's a great idea. Yeah, I mean, well, like, Joanna Cass says, yeah, whatever, just register her seat. I'll approve it, whatever. How much money is in petty cash? At one time, probably, what, $200? $200? Yeah, $3,000, right?

Three grand. Because, again, if I'm doing my math right, that's like $480,000 now. I think you're accurate. But it's weird because, I mean, here's your big mistake, Christina Applegate. You're bringing this petty cash envelope home with you, this black box with the petty cash in it. No, no, you take what you need for the day if you're doing it that way. And you know that your house is full of. fucking goblins. Oh, yeah, all those.

Racists and goblins. Racists and goblins in Gotham. Yeah, and that's what she does. And they fucking steal from her. And they buy, like, a diamond ring for the girlfriend, this entertainment center. That, by

the way, by 2016 standards, looks pretty lame. It looks like a fucking garbage dump. It's just this enormous tube television. I'm like, no, that's what's really pathetic. It's not even that enormous of a television. It's like a substandard tube

television. It's like 17 inches. It's really, like, I want a like floor to wait, you know, floor to this kid's head, like big projector TV. One of them big old you got to put them in a big wood case. Yeah, you call that a carpet denter.

That is. Dude, ruining carpets since 1976. These huge ass TVs. This is also a lesson in. You're going to, okay, you're stealing from Petty Cash. at the office. Who hasn't?

Who hasn't? Don't bring the whole fucking box of petty cash to your house. It's rookie mistake. Exactly. So, and she's also like getting John Gets is in this movie. Now, what is this dude's deal? He's a creep. Well, no, not the character.

The character is a creep. But John Gets himself, is he someone I should know? If you've ever seen another classic film on Turner Classic Movies, is made at work? Is he the bad guy? Yeah, he's the bad guy in that. That's a classic too. Dude, I saw someone posted something on Twitter the other day.

It was like a double-packed Blu-ray of Men at Work and Something Else Terrible. Let me tell you what. $6.99 was too high of a price tag for my taste. That sounds exactly right. That sounds exactly the Saturday I want to have. Yeah, it might wet my appetite. Well, because I think the other movie was not as great. But Men at Work, I've seen quite a lot.

That's enough much like this movie is a, Heavy rotation on HBO movie. When I was 11 years old, John Gets was the biggest star in America. Just because he was at this end-minute work. Playing Gus in this movie. And he's like, He wants to have a sex lunch.

Where he takes you out for lunch and then has sex with you. Do these slunches that he's trying to play in here. Buffet style. He's in some kind of a relationship with Joanna Cassidy who plays her boss. And it's like fine, but like... They're like established. like boyfriend, girlfriend,

they're going away for weekends. Well, they're using the whole, like, well, we never said we're exclusive muffy, you know, that kind of fucking horse hockey. And, you know, he keeps coming up to her and going, la la, la, la, and she's like, ew.

Yeah, it's a real, like, you want to share this used gum with me? Like, he's really disgusting in this movie. No one told her what human resources. I guess there is no human resources, because I'm not checking your social security card. Listen, it is, it is, it's, it's, you take the go to bed. Well, dude, listen, Joanna Cassidy, she's at the top floor of this organization. You might not have noticed, but this office is quite spectacular. She's breaking all sorts of rules, okay? You know, you don't need social security cards. When you're working for Joanna Cassidy and this uniform fashion office or something. They come back from vacation one week. And this is one of the, she's,

She has a couple of awkward lines in this movie Joanna Cassidy does. She comes back from vacation. She's like, oh, so great. It's just me and Gus. Sue Allen, which is, what's her name? Christine Abba. It's characters. Suelle, did you ever have a 48-hour orgasm?

I'm just like, hey, man, I got that QED report to do. I'm really fucking swamped here. Yeah, I don't need to do this. You don't know this, but I'm 17 years old, and that's gross. Let me just tell you that every girl over the age of 20. 25 needs a cucumber in her house. Dude, that's a, that was a, I never, I've seen this movie a million times. I never caught that one.

Yeah, you know what I mean? I was always just like, oh yeah, to relax the eyes. You cut it up, you put it on your eye. Dude, no, it's for something else. Well, that's the genius. Thanks, Google Image. Wait. I'm joking.

I was going to say. I'm joking. That is the genius of a film, like, don't tell mom the babysitter is dead. This is like a majestic onion. of sexual intrigue and innuendo and every time you watch it you just peel back these sexy layers. Would you call it a bloomin onion?

What did I call it? No, would you call it a blooming onion because of the Australian connection? Oh, well, blooming onions. Just my favorite part of Outback Steakhouse. That's what she's really just like living above an Outback Steakhouse doing meth with her boyfriend.

Oh, I'm going to Australia. See it too much. That's exactly what's happening. Dude, yeah, they're hitting the slopes, which is cocaine binges and death and whatever else. Maybe we do a little bit of rock climbing, too. Yeah. And, yeah, then we're going to Australia, which is downstairs going to Outback Steakhouse. Two bloomin onions will be filled for two days.

We'll lose all sorts of time. You've got to be high on Coke on meth. Coke and meth in order for that food to taste good. Oh, man, Outback Steakhouse. No rules. Just fucking deadly food poisoning. I think they're going to say deadly farts, because that's just like a... That's the blooming part. Yeah, the farts come right before you start vomiting blood.

Little turd blossoms. Hey, Poppy, can we take turd blossom out to Outback Steakhouse for his birthday? Not going to do it, Barr. Not going to drive all the way out to the Outback Steakhouse. Got a TGI Friday's right here in town. Got a blooming onion on the menu just as good bar. I've had both. I just, I like the potato skins a little bit better bar.

It's all I'm saying. I'm not in the mood for a steak, right? I'm not going to spend $60 on this kid's birthday party when he's pulling straight D's. Pulling straight D's. Oh, man. So back home, these kids are still just shitty. Yeah, Kenny's smoking. He's getting his pretty awesome corgi, which this dog doesn't have.

enough to do in this movie. You know, pretty good dog acting because he does do a little method acting to be a stoned dog for a little while. Man, and I hate the conceit that this is hilarious. They're getting the dog stone. Christina Applegates, after a long day of stealing from the office and telling somebody else to do her work, is in a bathtub, like, trying to just mellow out. They're listening to really awesome, like, 91-era shitty hair metal, which is my favorite

shitty hair metal, because I'm not a hair metal guy. But that, like, Bill and Ted shit? like where it's all like kind of light and poppy. The soft-ass version. Just like right before that shit turned over, choked, and died. That's the era you like... The last gasp of hair metal. So they're listening to some of that.

And she's like, turn it down. She goes in. I was looking at the IMDB message board tribune. And there's like this guy going off. He's like, guys, I watch this movie a bunch. How does end a room full of guys let Christina Applegate walk in with a towel? and nobody says nothing. And I'm like, well, it's her brother.

Yeah, well, one of them's her brother and everyone's like, I don't know people. Well, yeah, except here's the thing. If it was, in fact, if there was no sibling connection there, this is a movie that's making comments like that. Sure. We're getting all sorts of Auga's wolf calls the whole thing. It's because that there is a brother in the room.

No dude is going to be like, hey, baby. when your buddy's sister is the girl who's standing there. It's the brother's code, right? Now when you're out, now you catch her in the hallway on her own, that's a different ball game. Also, when all these deadbeat friends finally leave this house for the night,

all they're talking about is that towel. Well, sure. These kids are like a day away from becoming lost boys, is kind of what I was noticing. Dude, all they need to do is ride their bikes to the peers, and they will become members of the living undead. Right. Guaranteed.

They need their neck sucked. Yeah, exactly. By like, you know, Alex Winter and all the rest of them down there. Jason Patrick. Oh, right. Ah. Yeah, so I guess I do like at least one movie that he's in. It just, it actually just subtracted that movie in my head a little bit.

I mean, it takes points off. Yeah. So, um, uh, but basically like Kenny's being really irresponsible. There is a very famous to me scene where it's like, oh, let's do the dishes, they're doing a little skeet shooting and it's like dishes are done, man. Yeah. Now, here's the thing.

I'm sure it was fun as hell to skeet shoots some plates. But what are you going to eat Mama Celeste off? The kitchen counter? Doesn't it come with that gross little plate that you get to use? Oh shit, that little gray plate, man. Put it on that little gray plate.

Wash that little gray plate. Oh, no. Keep that little gray plate. Oh, ew. Mama Celeste, a little grape plate. Well, that's what you would do if you were shooting your shotguns. You'd be a hillbilly. You'd be washing your grape plates, washing your mayonnaise jars for

glasses. You know, man? Like, this is not the upscale place it's supposed to be. This grape soda still tastes like Hellman's bra. Dude, this house is disgusting. Every time they cut back to this house, I'm like,

please get back to that office with rapey David Doecoveny walking around. Oh, yeah, we can get into him a little bit. This is his first ever movie role, man. We're still two years away from my beloved Fox Malter. It's kind of interesting because he hadn't found his instrument yet. He's actually

like not completely monotone. Right. No, yeah, you're right. It's weird. He's doing a voice for this character. Which you would never do after this. I said this on Twitter. He's got this like professional soccer player like half ponytail horse shit

haircut. He looks like a Real scumbag. And he's a dating Carolyn, who's the receptionist that hates Christina Applegate's character. Who is the older sister of Josh Charles, by the way? You know what, Andrew? That's a complication I don't need in this script. No, I... Because as Christina Applegate and Josh Charles start talk-to-talk dating...

Mm-hmm. Which they do have a walk-and-talk beach date, by the way. They're watching the Grunion run, man. Yeah, but... What is that, man? Hold on a second. What is that? That's when fish fuck and you hang around.

So anyway. All I needed to know. The good thing about that relationship is it's showing how her and Josh Charles are so perfect together. But the fact that she has that double life that involves his sister is the wedge between them and makes them kind of split up. But they're so perfect together. He also like, it comes up with it, they have this argument where he's like, like, oh, my sister has these great box seats to the Dodger game. What do you come with us?

And he's like, oh, no, I can't. And, like, it comes to light that he's been talking shit about his sister's co-worker, like, it's trickling down into their relationship. Like, dude, I don't want to hear about your sister's fucking coworker, man. Seriously, find, like, listen, I'm sure she might be just a little more curious what Mr. Egg is up to. Yeah. She definitely does not care about your older sister's shitty co-op. worker man yeah that is that is wow also also the date they go on when you were you mentioned the fish

fucking oh sure this this this creepy let's walk under the boardwalk yeah that's a quick way to get killed by the lost boys exactly under a california pier look out man right or any number of desperate men oh mr egg is that is down there you dude that's where mr egg lives oh hey kids He's like eating a foot, like a dead body. Doing his laundry in the sand. The sand gets all the chili stains out. He has to quickly pull his pants up for some reason. Oh, yeah.

Just like how the sand feels on my cheeks. What are you boys doing down here? Mr. Egg wasn't expecting company tonight. While you're here, do you got any chili? It's just like, oh, man, Sue Ellen, do I have the latest hot gossip from my sister's office? Oh, you don't want to fool around? No, no, no. I want to hear about your sister's office.

What else is going on there? They have like a big fight and it's like kind of a little bit of a like breakup situation. It's amazing because Josh Charles has my favorite line in this movie, which is, I'm out of here. and just kind of walks away. That was a good Josh Charles impression. That's it. That's all I could do is just, I'm out of here. So, I mean, whatever.

Let's flash forward a little bit. Sue Ellen realizes that, like, the company's kind of on hard times. They lose this account from this, like, school district. Because the school district, the kids, are very much against the new uniforms, blah, blah, blah. Right. They, like, burn them an effigy, it's told, which is fun.

That's kind of. of a scene I want to see. Agreed. Sue Ellen, you know, has to go with Joanna Cassidy, like, to this presentation. The kids run a muck, you know. It's like, it's maybe a scene out of, like, kindergarten cop, you know? They realize how flammable their uniforms are. Well, that went up quick.

The finger thing means the money, because not only do we not, we don't get that Dodger game either, you know what I mean? It's like, oh, this Dodger game's good. Yeah. There's essentially two and a half locations in this movie, the farmhouse where they live, the office where she works, and then sort of that chili a dog stand, the chili dog stand for a few minutes. We don't even get to see Australia. Not even like the bad, like it's the mom. She's on a pay phone. You know, what's going on?

Dude, so much so. There are several instances where this mother calls to check in. We don't even get like a voice on the other. It's just like, what's that mom? Yeah, things are totally fine. Gotta go. Hang up. That's what you call the Suzanne Summers' Three's company call.

Like, oh, Chrissy's having a great time in a new apartment, click. Do you and she? Chrissy just never came back. She never did. That's all right, though. That show, that show soldiered on. So, yeah, they're on hard times. She's also realized that, oh, my God, the kids have stolen all.

all my money. I'm really in a pinch. Yeah, spent three grand, man. Right. And, oh, she also has to go and go to the doctor's office for Walter, breaks his whatever. It breaks his leg and fill up the house. And this is sort of, like, all this shit's adding up to be like, hey, Kenny, get your shit together. Yeah, please stop smoking weed and watching Julia Child.

At the very least, be drug dealing. Could you do me a favor and become a drug dealer, buddy? Yeah, you know what? You got, like, your five loser friends that keep coming over to, like, ogle your older sister. Actually, at the start of this movie, he's bringing up a marijuana plant to his room. Oh, yeah. It falls off the window or whatever that he's trying to prop on. It's a perfect business opportunity.

It is a perfect, yeah. You should, if your parents run away, it's just something to consider, consider it. I mean, you're just, like, living in that pretty California son, man, you can get that little plant going, make other little plants out of it I mean that is a business plan man if you're able to shoot a shotgun and destroy all your plates the cops are not coming by

your house that's just make yourself a little grow area in the backyard you know great point now if you want to make your own grow area test the waters by shooting a shotgun a few times yeah if anyone comes snooping around

yeah but if they don't you are free and clear to start a little grow operation Yeah, just a little grow area. Instead, he just starts cooking Belgian waffles, and it's the only food he cooked. And I hate this, right? This is this losers' like turnaround. It's like, oh, I'm going to start perfecting, like, how to make waffles.

And then what the movie turns into, which is very odd. And they're trying to play it for jokes, but it's weird, is like, Kenny and Sue Ellen become, like, the married couple with the traditional, quote, gender roles reverse. Yeah. So, like, she's bringing home the bacon. He's home cooking. They're having fights about, like, you don't spend enough time asking how my day was at home with these kids. And I'm, like, at no point would these two people, like, ever forget that their brother and sister. Like, this, it's, I know it's being played for jokes. I'm not stupid. Yeah. Like, it doesn't work. It's weird.

It's also, they are, they are sleeping together. Oh, yeah. Oh, well, that's, yeah, that's a given. That's a given. That happened. Deleted scene. It is the oldest joke in the book, though. It's the, I made a pot roast, you didn't call. And like, it's always funny when two guys are doing it on television, right, guys? I'll tell you what, there's an episode of Seinfeld where that happens.

And I think it's, I actually, I always, that always bugged me. I was like, it's a little complete the day, Seinfeld for the, you know, I burned a roast gag. Well, the thing is, like, in this movie, I'll argue that it kind of works. It's not, maybe not well. Yeah, yeah. This is like, this is the time to do it. Yeah. The water is receding.

Yes. But this is the time to do it. Those finish are fucking or whatever's going on. The grunion or running, bro. That's disgusting. I also like the casual swearing in this film. Oh, sure. It comes up in the scene because, like, it is, this is why the scene kind of works for me.

Because they're doing the, you know, blah, well, we don't go out together anymore. And she's like, oh, you know, we'll do something tomorrow and he goes, eat shit and walks away. It's a real good eat shit. It's a great eat shit. Eat shit is like... Underrated. It's an underrated insult to throw at somebody because the comeback to eat shit is very difficult. It is.

You know, because it's like a, no, why don't you? You know, that doesn't work. Like, yeah, fine, I will. You're what? You're going to eat shit. Go ahead and eat shit. I got you. So underrated.

Folks at home, please feel free to toss that around in your personal lives. I think eat shit needs a whole. hardcore comeback, man. When I was growing up, my mom would tell people to eat shit all the time. Oh, she did. Oh, she did.

Oh, she did. Just people. Like, grocers and pharmacists? No. No, just like people she had problems with. Like, this person today, you know, at the bank was giving me problems. And I wanted to tell him to eat shit.

Oh, okay. No, she wasn't, like, physically going around yelling, eat shit at people. Eat shit. Did you hear they finally put away eat shit lady I'm also imagining the eat shit in your personal lives

all right well anyone else have to right before you got a couple of rough minutes in the meeting anybody have any new business eat shit well I guess I'll be putting that in the ledger thank you I have another moment

I eat shit you know guys the great plate of the mama Celeste, kind of looks like a money in Falcons. Kind of it does. Guys, it's not, I just want to say one more time, it's not a pod race to get your reports done, okay? Ah, see here, it turns out that I've been in a shock corridor.

It's trapped in the booby hatch with the eat shit lady and George Lucas. Oh, man, but yeah, each, it just, and it just, and it just hits you. That's an insult that sticks to the wall and it's not going anywhere. You're right. It's a Klingon. Hashtag we want war. So, like, the last act of this movie is like, oh, we lost this big account. We're actually going to close the office. Holy shit. And Christina Applegant's like, hey, I've got awful fashion sense. Why don't? Because

at one point, she's dressed like a fucking husked out Christmas tree. We don't talk about fashion enough on this show I'll tell you that much Yeah she looks weird So she's like Oh I have awful fashion sense I can throw a fashion show at my house And that'll save the company

And it'll be hip And like Joanna Cassie's like Oh those are great ideas Let's do it So Kenny and the gang Are cleaning the house And all this stuff And they apparently have this amazing

Fucking pool Where was this pool The whole movie Because you know what will add to Fun in the sun in the summertime. Yeah. A functioning swimming pool. Or like you're skateboarding inside of it, maybe?

That could have happened. Yeah, big time. Where's this idiot Kenny skateboarding in this pool? Or that little fat kid can break his arm in there. That's what it should have been. He falls off that roof into the empty pool. And the whole thing's like, man, if that pool was filled, Kenny wouldn't have broke his leg.

Or maybe the other kids dry humping in there. That's possible. Or, sure. Or it's, you know, it's full of water. And it's like, I don't know, I've been shot. floating up down in this pool. Who got me? This is how I die.

Let's go back a few weeks. I wish it was Norma Desmond's house. That old brood kept a clean pool. Floating face down in algae here. I'm dying. I'm bleeding out in this pool. What's that a bug in my mouth? I'm surrounded by Mama Celeste gray plates.

Also, we should mention that the only reason they have to have this fucking dumb fashion show at the house is because Joanna. Cassidy's like, oh, rent the usual banquet hall we do for these things, just take it out of petty cash. And she's like, ah, how about my house? Oh, no. I'm your boss, and I know

that these businessmen aren't going to go to your fucking split level in the fucking boondots. Your white trash palace. Thank you, but no thanks. Oh, the place you tell me about with all the old newspapers. But here's where her embezzling becomes ingenious. Because Bruce and

Clown Dog's sister Once they want to try to catch her Fucking up on this job So many times You know They've always been told to eat shit themselves But they go into the petty cash thing Thinking you know

Because they overheared that she's been spending petty cash And they find all the receipts For stuff that's actually for the party Which is like $600 for an ice sculpture Which is just Kenny's friend Taking an axe to a axe to piece of ice. Which is so stupid because...

So she's covering it up in this party. Oh, right. It's fake receipts. Exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But some of them are, and when you look at them, written naturally in crayon, where you're like, well... It's like a napkin. The old napkin receipt, I've been there.

They think they get her because they find her ID that she left in this body house. Her driver's license. What are you leaving your driver's license at work for? where you're driving it drove me up a wall i can tell also we didn't mention uh the babysitter's car is stolen by three drag queens at one point while they filed under w for whatever while they are dining at a charles entertainment cheese establishment by the way and what is what this is this the like it's like a random gay villainy strike you know it's just bizarre it's weird it's we've got Marilyn Monroe, Liza, and somebody else.

And it's your classic R for random, because it's funny because these people don't exist in the world. So it's like, you know what I mean? Like it's just so weird. It's just like, let's dress up three men for a big fat gay joke in the middle of this movie, which now this is where it was, it's enough already. Yeah. We can make jokes about, you know, who's doing the housework and what and who's bringing home the money. But these, like, drag queen jokes, come on. And it's also just the dumb world of celebrity impersonators.

That's something I've got no time for. Well, the weird thing about this scene and many scenes is the ADR is out of control in this movie. Then anyone else catch that? Because it's like, there's an R-rated cut, but they're probably saying shit a lot more or, you know, whatever else words are showing up. I was wondering what was going on. Because this scene that's like, those, I'm like, drag queens are stealing our car. And I'm like, hold on. Yeah, when Kenny's saying, am I watching a basketball game?

When drag queen is said by Kenny, it looks like his mouth is starting with. Yeah, exactly what I mean. It's like if somebody just miss a free throw and I'm watching it on ABC and I can't hear what they're saying, but I know what they're saying. Dude, that is the best professional sports swear slip-ups that get through the sensors. that's a fun time caught most frequently when the NFL does the dumb ass like let's listen in on the huddle

because we got a microphone hooked up to the quarterback's helmet and they're just like you fucking fuck baby well that was really interesting Eli Manning thanks a lot now back up to the booth with Kenny moose and goose enjoy Thanksgiving

man the NFL loves Thanksgiving they do they really love Thanksgiving I love it. I know it's been an hour since we talked about a diarrhea, but Tony Syracusa, right? The guy's a fucking turd sandwich. He sucks, man.

So what's the other gate joke? I miss that one. Oh, well, it's coming up. Well, now, okay, so basically what starts to happen in this thing is they start, they do the party. It's coming up. We got a build to it. Okay. The fashion show is happening.

It's happening. She gets all her friends who are back from Europe now to be models. down the runway. Got all the other dirtbag kids friends to be like waiters and house cleaners and whatnot. Exactly. And Kenny cleans himself up. He gets rid of his, you know, his Nikki Six mullet gets himself a John Ritter mullet. That's what you want. Everyone loves him now. He's going by Kenneth. His sister's friend Nicole wants a date. Nicole starts looking Kenneth's way. And you know the thing is, Kenneth, you can still be smoking all that weed. Man, it's still cool.

She knows that. You're just not a fucking outward asshole anymore. You think the stars and bars are staying up, or does that come down when he grows up a little bit? Well, you know, Kenny will eventually learn lessons from the past, but probably not right away. The pornography comes down. The Stars and Bars hangs for a couple more years.

Well, pornography before Stars and Bars, huh? In 91, definitely. Just the whole idea, by the way, of, like, pornographic posters in your house. But you've got like a little sister, an older sister, a mother and a young brother. Just, you know, people in a house. Yeah, I guess I thought I was getting at.

Was it there were other human beings in this house? Yeah, I'm offended by this too. I believe that anything sexual should be shamed to a degree. Sure. Like, keep it in a book. Okay, so Josh Charles comes around playing

his stupid clown music. Oh, right. It ruins the party. With this guy, man, what an asshole. Because he goes, I'm out of here and leaves the movie, essentially, for about an hour. Right. My favorite hour of the movie. There's a great montage, by the way, not to derail us, where it's like the things are going bad montage. In where Christina Avilgate drives up to the hot dog palace.

Oh. And she's like longingly looking at him mop up grease and puke. I was more impressed with the getting things done montage, which I really appreciated. Yeah, that's a clean in the house. Also, the great dating montage we didn't mention when they're bouncing balls. They're bouncing on balls. Oh, right. At a Kmart?

Yeah. Dude, you know what? You know what screams great date going to Kmart? Sure. When you're 17, yeah. Great underdog performance in that scene of that came out and play. Hey, you can't do that in here. Yeah, that guy was bound for the big time.

I love that guy. So he drives by. He's, like, on the megaphone. Yeah. Kind of blowing the party a little bit. That's what I'm saying. He's a maniac because he hasn't talked to... Look, I love you.

It's months. There's all these people at her house. And she's like, what the fuck? It's totally obvious from the front lawn that something is going on. There's spotlights. You know what I mean? There's a valet there. There's fashion show music.

You just have to drive by and be like, oh, let me park my car and go talk to her. Yeah. So when he finally finds out all the shit that's going on. right her double life and everything like that yes he says well what else are you hiding are you really a guy yeah are you a guy yeah that's just whatever yeah it's just a thud so um uh caroline his older sister uh goes up to joanna cassis like hey here's the idea of this high school kid you hired you fucking idiot i shouldn't say that but like oh and she's like oh i should have checked her at all. I realized

I didn't ask for any identification. But so she kind of tells Carolyn off, she's like, you're a vindictive little shit, you know that, eat shit. Tells her to grow up. Yeah, yeah. That's the adult version of each shit. Grow up's a really good

one. It is a good one. But you got to be careful with grow up because it can sound whiny and you're like, oh, grow up. That's true. You sound like Louis Anderson. You got to do the, like, stop it. Hey, hey, hey. why don't you grow up See that's why don't you

You have to preface with that If it's oh grow up Guys grow up That you sound like a fucking baby Right If you're veering that way Don't you If you're

If you start a grow up And it sounded like a wine Immediately abandoned it and say each shit Okay so here's I just created a new version of hell for myself Sure You're in an office in like 1994.

Sounds hellish so far. You're stuck between, you're in a cube yourself. You've got two cubes next to you. One is a failed comedian Louis Anderson who never made it. Oh, no. And on the other side is failed George Lucas. Oh, no. And they're just calling out Star Wars jokes back and forth to each other, like talking over your cubes.

So the first movie came out and Louis Anderson was a big fan. Yeah, and then just. And they're both working. So it's like a cult classic, is that the idea? Yeah, but you never made any money off of it. I think I could live with this. Yeah. I think this might, actually, I think that might be in my wheelhouse.

Hey, George, I think I'm going to try to run and reheat this burrito in the community kitchen in under 12 bars, thanks. Louie, you are funny. You should still do stand-up. You should keep it going, man. You got it. What do you do if you're in this scenario? Steve is you record all their conversations and it becomes like shut up little

man that documentary about that tape that's circulated forever those two people arguing in San Francisco yeah oh god yeah you're right and you'd make a fortune off of it no I'd make a fortune off my own suicide I think I'm dead I got my own insurance money so the mom

comes home blows up the spot and here's the thing mom so stupid if you come home to this and it's not like an obvious raging party, okay? It's like a sophisticated thing. There are press there. There's press.

It's clearly, first of all, it's clearly a fashion show. There's a spotlight. There's this not the other thing. There's like catered hors d'oeuvres being put around. The house is cleaner than you ever saw it. The pool doesn't have fucking diarrhea in it. It's got fucking clean blue water. You know what?

The kids are all right. Like, listen, listen. You just got to let this play out. Hang back. Exactly. Hang back. Hang back. And when the dust settles, when everyone is gone, you go up and you just go, so what the

fuck was that? Yeah, exactly. That's what you do. You don't humiliate. Your daughter is at a podium giving a presentation. You essentially heckled this woman. What does she yell? She yells like, you're in big trouble.

Yep, yep, like a fucking jerk. Yeah, thanks for nothing, Mom, yet again. It's outrageous. And it's like, I get it. I get it, Mom, you're upset. Yeah, just we'll figure it out. We'll all be adults here and we'll figure it out. Hey, Mom, why don't you grow up?

Why don't you go back? Or no, you know what? The good line is, why don't you go back to Australia? Yeah. But the costumes, and I do call them costumes because they're supposed to be uniforms, but they're like, they're all like in living color fly girls. I don't understand. She couldn't quit.

the fly girls for an additional seven seasons of a living color. Because it's supposed to be school uniforms, but everyone's dressed like hip hop bellhops and hip hop nurses. Well, it's, here's the thing, it's not just school uniforms. School uniforms is a big part of it, but it's also like chef's coats

and waiter, this and that, you know, nurses, medical uniforms. It's like that. Everyone kind of looks like beetle juice a little bit, just sort of... Well, and here's what it is, Steve. It's like any other stupid fashion show. It's a bunch of crazy shit that no one would wear in public anyway.

Well, I mean, it's all irrelevant the second it ends. It's like, oh, wait, it's 1992. Well, that's it. Clinton's in office. This shit's out. Throw out all those neon costumes.

God damn it. Billy boys in the house now. You look like shit, fly girls. Teach you how to dance. Billy style. Slick Willie on the dance floor, y'all. You sure you don't want to use any of these big bellhop outfits there, Bill?

No, throwing them all out, Grandpa! I would have loved to see George H.W.'s White House with a bunch, all the people working there are wearing these like neon bellhop outfits. Sounds about right. I don't know, Bill. They all look pretty sharp to me.

The morale around this White House is great, and I got kicked out after one term. Look how happy they are. So it's this whole, Like, this is basically the end of the movie. And here's another thing that I do love about this movie. It just wraps up. It really wraps up.

I do need Carolyn, who's the Josh Charles' sister, needs a pie in the face and something, and we need some do Covney Ball trauma. Here, Steve, I'll tell you what, I think I appreciate the pie in the sky dreams that you may have for these characters. But who would I offer you a simultaneous, good old. fashion grade A USA fall in the pool I'll be in the middle there that's the cheaper option it's something about they're trying to run over this very dangerous fashion show runway bridge

that they have put over the pool they're on that thing and it's like whoa whoa whoa whoa and the two of them fall in the pool well they do get a version of their comeuppets it's not as good as either of those food poisoning from the hot dog king yes but no it's You know, they get their car back from the valet, which is the other dirtbag friends of...

Oh, right. Kenny, yeah. And their car is covered in shaving cream and toilet paper and whatnot. So that's the pie in the face. That shit'll take pain off. Yeah, that's true. I mean, one of the kids calls him DeCovety Metallica breath? Is that a compliment?

I don't know. Well, I thought, I mean, these dudes are, like, rocking out constantly in this movie. And I was like, why are you using presumably one of your favorite? bands, like, as an insult. Also, what the hell is Metallica breath? I don't know. I'm sure we'll get, like... You smell like James Hetfield? No, that's a bad situation.

We'll get a mailbag entry, I'm sure. So, someone will fill us in on what the Metallica Breath is. At WHM podcast. How did you not know that Metallica Breath means block on Twitter? Obviously, you guys are a little younger and didn't go to Judas Priest's concerts. Oh, man. And so, like, you know, she wraps things,

Christine Applegate that is, wraps things up, you know, with Joanna Cassidy. Joanna Cassidy is offering her a job, and she's like, nah, I think I'm going to go to college. And I'm like, she's offering you, like, this killer job, man. And she's telling you how, like, you saved the company. We're making all this money. All these people want these stupid, crazy uniforms.

And I'm just thinking, okay, so wait a second, this business was about twofold. Yeah. You brought it back from that brink into this big profit for Rose. We also have to mention it, I'll be right on top of it, Rose. Yeah. We have to mention that. Sure. It's a great catchphrase.

So she saves the company and she gets maybe three paychecks out of it. Yeah. I was wondering that same thing this time around. I was like, you get residuals for these fly girl uniforms? But the thing is, they've got her over a barrel For the stealing the petty cash, so it's kind of it's all No one knows that though She faked it right, right?

Like that all those receipts supposedly Like fucking with a life insurance policy man She did this thing by the numbers. Yeah. I think that path's covered up nicely. It's good, yeah. Hey, George, you know what makes doing invoices go faster? If we sing

Dun dun dun dun da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da Imagine if we had a few droids working on these numbers Think about how fast it'd go then Louis Hey Louis, look at my droid I have Holds up a Texas Instruments calculator I call him TR for Texas Instruments Oh, George, you're a genius.

I'm in T-I. Texas Instruments. Let's call them T-R-T-I. Let's just go with it. So a clown dog for lunch. You got it, Bon. All right, so eventually the mother says, Where's the baby sinner?

Cut to credit. And then he's rock and roll. We get our little stinger. Oh, yeah, dude. There's a little bit of a thano stinger in this movie. Just let that, dude, sizzle like a steak at Outback Steak house. Yeah. So there's a tombstone that says...

Oh, a Tombstone Pizzeria? No, no, no, no, no, no. It's a tombstone grave that says a nice old lady died of natural causes. that these morgue workers apparently just buried her without knowing anything about her or doing an autopsy or finding out who she is whatsoever. Listen, let me tell you what,

worse things could have happened. I don't know. Mrs. Sturach was a real pain in the neck, right? Christine Abelgate. Is that entitled her to an unmarked grave? What's marked? Sort of? No, it's not.

It might as well be just an empty... It might be a shallow ditch. But by the way, this is the movie. I always want. This is the movie I want. She's coming back to life in the hand comes up. Morg workers gone rogue. Oh, yeah.

And find a bunch of money in a trunk full of corpses or a corpse. A trunk full of corpses. And they just cover it up, dude. And it's just them covering up deaths. Isn't that that night shift movie or no? Oh, probably. Oh, with the Ron Howard movie? Yeah, the one with what's his favorite, Michael Keaton?

and Henry The phone Henry Winkler No, that's not that I mean we're like sort of doing Morg stuff, yeah but no No, but it's not like

the horror show that Eric's envisioning Which I think is a pretty great movie Also, for some reason The Stars and Bars comes up to that one too Ah well and that's it That's the end of the movie Can I take a guess here And say that this is an around the horn

Recommend? Oh absolutely Hard recommend. It's a fun movie. It holds up. Like, there's, it's just, you know, it moves pretty quickly. It's an hour and 45 minutes. It could and should be maybe 90 minutes.

I could use a lot less of, like, her at the office. Her, like, talking to that fat guy in the basement. Franklin? Yes, Franklin. You what's great. Solid Franklin name recognition. You see the scene of her meeting him? And then, like, Rose is like, we're going to have to fire everyone.

Go tell Franklin he's done. And then it's like him crying in her lap. And I'm like, what is her relationship with Franklin? She doesn't have one. And that's why it could just be a scene left out of the movie. Yeah, that's fair. But it's a hardcore recommend. I was actually surprised.

I probably rewatched this movie maybe like two, three years ago. And didn't really like give it much thought. It was kind of just like a real tall glass of water hanging out situation. Yeah. But this movie. does hold up. It's a watchable movie. It is. And it's testament a lot to just

Christina Applegate being awesome. I'm a Christina Applegate Superfan. Yeah, we haven't talked about her enough. She really holds this movie down. She's got great comic timing. I think Kenny, she's pretty she's pretty much every scene. Kenny's good. That dude is good. Keith Coogan holds up. Do Covney holds up, man,

with that fucking shitty ponytail. Like that's the thing. Most of this movie does just totally hold up. And I think it's because it's not like a bullshit house arrest kid power movies. We've got a little bit of an edge to it. By the way, we're smoking cigarettes this entire time. We haven't talked about that yet.

Oh, she's smoking in the office. I think she's even smoking in the hospital when she goes to get the kid. Yeah, of course you're smoking in this movie. It's a noir. That's Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead. Directed by Stephen Herrick. If you want more, we hate movies,
