Hey, fucking Katie, man.
What is this?
This is obsession has rocked my world.
Really?
Yeah.
I can't wait to talk to you about it.
It's happening right now.
Okay, I don't even have to.
No waiting.
No waiting included.
All right.
So this was your first time watching.
Wow, we got right the fuck into this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're not even going to fuck around a little bit?
Let's fuck around and find out.
Okay.
Sorry about losing power and not being able to record last.
week.
Sorry about losing power, says a man who lost power during a storm.
Who, who are you, how are you responsible for this?
Oh, I should have been more of a man.
I could have kept the power going.
You should have been holding the broken parts of the wire one in each hand as we
recorded.
Oh, no, you were just watching it.
Yeah, I hadn't even watched it yet.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
Everyone's really mad at you.
I know, I know.
Think about that in the middle of night.
I know.
Sorry I went out of town.
We couldn't report over the weekend.
I had to celebrate labor.
Never apologized for celebrating Labor Day.
The laborist of laborists.
The laborists.
Okay, so we're back.
We're watching Obsession.
This is my third time watching it.
Sweet, Christ Almighty.
Yes, I saw it once in the theater on a date and he had a very emotional reaction to it.
As well, he should.
Yeah.
Every man should have a very emotional reaction to this move.
Yeah. I watched it on vacation with Vicky, who had a less emotional reaction, but more kept being like, oh, what is that?
And then I wasn't going to- That's a very Vicky reaction. It's a very Vicky reaction. I wasn't going to watch it again for this podcast because I thought Jesus twice as enough. And then I saw that we got a two-star review on Apple podcast that criticized me not watching the movies. And I was like, fuck it. I will watch it again. We sure did. Two stars.
You got nothing? I watch it when I want to.
Dog?
Dog.
You got nothing fucking better to do than to leave a two-star review on a podcast.
Look, they're letting others know that I'm not going to watch these movies all the way through.
There are fucking unhoused people who need to be fed.
There are babies who need a suckler in this world.
But what if someone wants to leave us a five-star review?
Fine.
Pop on and do it.
Hop on to MapQuest.
or whatever website you used to leave reviews.
So this is my third round.
And I have to say, I think this is enough.
Yeah, I have seen this one and a half-ish times
because they fell asleep the first time I watched it.
Yeah, it's a very boring movie.
And I never, ever want to watch it again.
Really?
Just like out of the gates.
And that is not a condemnation of the movie.
No.
It might actually be...
That's why I thought about backrooms.
I never want to watch it again.
Okay.
But not a condemnation.
So we will not be doing backrooms on this podcast.
I will.
Yeah.
We're doing another movie called Bathrooms.
Bathrooms.
Like it.
But if we do backrooms...
It's a port-a-potty at a NASCAR race.
If we do backrooms, I get to say Chewetail Edgiafor.
You have been practicing that one.
I love saying his name.
Say what we're saying?
Say it all right.
Just for that, we can do it.
Not for it.
Give me a few weeks.
Give me a few weeks.
I don't want to see it because I'm just like,
what is Gen Z scared of?
I'm just an old man who doesn't want to like see things.
Isn't this movie also made by a Gen Z?
year? Yeah, yeah, he's like 26. Yeah, so where are you on that?
Or we'll get to it in the ratings. Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure. Okay, I have to,
also one thing before we get into the film itself. Bloom House. Yes, the Bloom House reminded
me. You sent me a text message yesterday evening with a photo of a snack and I replied in all
caps, what the fuck is that? And you just didn't reply. So I need you to tell me about what this is.
This is the Cheetos Bloomhouse Fear the Flavor of Cheetos.
Can I tell you what the flavor is?
Fearful.
It's cinnamon?
What?
No, it's not.
And unbelievably hot spicy.
Really?
Where did you get these?
They just showed up at gaming.
My gaming group, one of our things that we do is like, let's bring their most ridiculous
snacks to each other.
I cannot believe you didn't put some in a baggie for me.
I would not subject you to this because they were straight up disgusting.
Really?
Yeah, they were bad.
Like, I ate one and halfway through it.
I was like, if I was the type of person who threw food away, I would not finish the other half of this Cheeto.
Cheetos are not that substantial.
Yeah.
I mean, it was a cheesy poof.
It was a, it wasn't of like, cheese curl.
Yes.
Okay.
But a Cheetos brand cheese curl.
Got it.
That is affiliated with, I thought your what the fuck was just a general, what has
this world come to.
Oh, no.
And I had no response to that.
All the details.
For your scary appetite.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry that I'm not going to call you out for not answering my text.
I'm calling you in.
All right.
Let's get into this movie.
Bloomhouse.
Bloomhouse.
Everything.
Everything is Bloomhouse.
So we start off with a young man, a handsome young man.
Yeah.
One Michael Johnston.
Mm-hmm.
It feels like you come up with a stage name, but that's just me.
A.k.a. Barron, aka. Bear.
Right.
Who is, I don't like that Wikipedia describes him as a shy music store employee,
because that does not encapsulate who this man is.
Yeah, he's a bit more complicated than that.
I don't know.
That lets him off, and I don't like that at all.
No, he should not, yeah, no.
So he's giving a monologue about how much he likes a woman.
He sounds, might you say, obsessed.
you might say obsessed and that obsession is with himself.
How she makes him feel.
How she makes him feel.
That's all men care about.
It's true.
I'm not arguing with you.
I think this is what upsets me about this movie.
Too real.
It's that it really,
really, really, really hits home.
Yeah.
I watched multiple YouTube reviews of this film that were like three hours plus long.
Really?
Is that how long this episode is going to be?
Because I was hoping to catch the NFL kickoff
and or the Republican midterm conventions tonight.
Also, to both.
Ew.
Yeah, I know.
I don't really like myself a lot.
When did you become football person?
Well, it's because of fantasy football.
It's back, baby.
Oh, it's back.
Yeah.
I have bones to pick this year.
Well, we'll get you out of here.
No, I would recommend people to check out a review
that was done by Jesse Jenner.
on YouTube where they went
very hard on this movie and
a movie called Companion and
Ex Machina.
And talked about how all of these movies are
kind of a retelling of the Pygmalion story
of like creating your own like
perfect woman who has no personality
and is only there to serve you.
Also on the plot of possession by with Sam Neal
and that lady that you love.
Isabel Anjani.
Isabel Anjani, another name you love to say.
Yes.
Possession.
Yeah.
Danzig.
I've been talking and thinking a lot about Danzig lately.
It's strange.
No, I love it.
Yeah, I think it's because the weather's getting cooler.
Sure.
It's a Danzigian time of year.
It's going to be Danzig season before you know it.
Also, do yourselves a favor and do a search for Danzig, which is a cartoon that someone
did that is Ziggy as Danzig.
I love that.
Ziggy's the saddest little motherfucker on the planet.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So is that little cat litter carry motherfucker.
So he's telling this woman how much he cares for her.
And then we kind of pull back and realize that he's telling a server at a restaurant
who is not actually affiliated with him and his best friend, Ian, or friend.
Maybe not best friend.
This guy might not have best friends.
I don't understand the character of Ian at all.
Why does he sometimes dress like a middle-aged golf dad?
He's like 15.
One point he's wearing a windbreaker shirt.
Are kids wearing windbreaker shirts?
I got a new windbreaker in the mail the other day.
Yeah, you're 52, my dude.
You are a middle-aged non-golf not dad.
It does say ether rich on it, though.
It does not.
You got a windbreaker that says ether rich.
My friend said it to me because he ordered a size too big for himself,
so he sent me the size too big one.
Incredible.
I can't even believe we came to this naturally.
I look like if an anarchist JV.
soccer team had a coach, I would be him.
That sounds like an incredible job.
So this guy, Ian, is trying to explain to bear how to pick up Nikki.
Right.
He says that he needs to invite romance essentially by negging her.
Sure, 100%.
I don't think that really works.
But I also think that, as we'll learn later on in the movie, Ian has alternative motives for this.
Sure, I guess so.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He tells him to call her Freaky Nicky, which is a nickname that we understand that she hates.
Yeah.
Who the fuck wouldn't hate that?
No, I don't.
If I started calling you Freaky Katie, you would be like, can you not?
It sounds like they all went to high school together, and that was a high school nickname, which
why that sounds terrible.
Sure.
Yeah, she's basically the hot dog girl from high school.
The hot dog girl.
Yeah, the hot dog girl.
The girl that the rumor goes around high school that she was pleasuring herself.
with a frozen hot dog and then it broke off inside of her.
You did not have that one of those?
No.
Oh, she had to go to the emergency room to get it removed.
I'm sorry, you could get half a hot dog out of your pussy.
They're not that, they don't go that far.
What are you talking about?
Listen.
Listen, no wait, let me tell you something.
I'm sorry, pussy expert is what they call you, Dr. Pussy over here.
This is from 40 years ago, no bullshit.
Yeah.
No cap, as they say.
Is that what that means?
I don't know.
I was hanging out with friend of the podcast, Sarah, this weekend.
And she was, like, asking me what bodied meant.
And I was like, I think it meant you killed it.
I think you meant you did a really good job.
You bodied something.
Okay.
And it's basically like you knocked something out of the park.
Oh, fuck yeah.
You bodied it.
Right.
Yeah.
But it was very funny that, like, two 50-year-old people were like, what is body to me?
What is bodied?
Well, I haven't heard about it on Ira Glass's program yet.
Science Friday has not gotten into Baudy, the etymology of Bauding.
We learn that they go to trivia, but Nikki always invites the other co-workers, which means she does not want to be alone with this man.
Which he should take as a hint, but does not.
He is nonstop not understanding social cues.
Yeah.
Do you think he's got a touch of the tism?
No, I think he's just.
just a dude.
Okay.
Yeah.
We're not great.
And especially when we're young, we're really not great.
Like, non-fully formed dudes, bad.
Bad, bad looks.
Not bad.
Subhuman, frankly.
Sorry for men under the age of 27.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, in my case, men under the age of 40.
I mean, it took me a long time.
Men my age are jaded and cynical and awful.
That's why you won't date them and you only date 20-year-olds.
I'm only dating high school students.
My child bride.
Who was watching something recently that had a woman who was a former paramour of Leonardo Caprio.
She's one of the ones that he dump when she turns 25.
Yeah, well, that's a bit too.
And I was like looking at pictures of the two of them together and I was like, you look like a father and daughter.
Yeah, that's your dad.
Yeah, because he's my age, if not a little bit older.
I would think around your age, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
So a woman who is like currently 25?
Yeah, that's your perfect match.
You know what, you know what that?
No!
Why, she's probably got a lot of insight into life and how things work.
Oh man, I went out on one hinge day with a dude who was like 30 and he was trying to explain to me how I needed to like look at the positive side of life.
and I was like, I will glass you.
I have to go home now.
I wish.
My greatest wish is that I be allowed to go on dates with you
and just like be in the background
and then slowly just like loudly squeak a chair
into this frame and be like, nah.
You just hit like the buzzer from the game taboo
that you've been holding this whole time.
While making eye contact with the day.
dude just be like,
mm-mm,
mm-mm,
her grandfather says no.
You're 10 years older than me.
Okay, so at this point,
though,
we're not sure if Bear is,
like,
sweet and shy and misreading
and, like,
not able to read a situation,
or if he's,
like,
wretched.
I mean,
bear is what I call my cat.
My cat is bear to me.
Okay.
So it's just like,
it's an adorable little nickname
for an adorable little boy.
Oh,
not something to be taken seriously.
Exactly.
he's a little bear he's a little bear oh little bear oh that's very infantilizing isn't it yeah yeah yeah and that's like
kind of where he is yeah like everyone's just like oh him he doesn't get it yeah yeah yeah so ian tells him to
neg nicky and then we get a hard cut to him going home yeah and what is he discovered in his home his
his dead cat sandy and what is his reaction to find in the dead cat he cleans it up and sobs
and puts it in a trash bag.
Oh, yeah.
Well, if you live in the, I guess they don't live in the city, do they?
No.
No.
I've never found a pet dead.
I've always had to euthanize.
I found a cat dead.
I do have two tattoos for that cat.
Iqabod?
Yeah.
Oh, he was a sweet boy.
He was a sweet boy.
I came home and found him dead,
and I definitely, until I could take him to be cremated,
had him resting on towels inside of like a nice, like a nice, like a sweet boy.
apartment, so he was warm and safe.
I would not put my fucking cat in a trash bag.
I would also not say, what did you do?
Because I left pills out that this cat got into.
How does a cat get into pills?
Because he didn't close the lid.
Because he's been taking his grandmother's medications off label.
Uh-huh.
And just left them laying around so the cat was able to access.
Does not strike me as an oxy guy.
Okay.
This is the thing.
This is the thing.
Okay.
He's an irresponsible.
fucking pet owner.
Then we see him sobbing,
but he's not sobbing about the cat.
He says,
why can't she just?
Exactly.
Yeah,
because he sucks.
And back to when I came home
and found my cat dead,
I almost broke the floor
when I found him
because I was punching it so hard
because I was so sad.
He was an old boy.
I was 13.
Oh, I thought he was an old boy.
No, no, no, no.
Let's not talk about this.
Let's not get into this.
But I'm just saying,
I did not immediately turn around
and go, why doesn't she like me?
I know.
Yeah.
He just like, he's, he's so self-centered.
Yeah.
And I'm just harping on this because there are people out there that watch this movie and go,
I think he might be the victim.
It's really shame of what happened to him.
He might be the victim of this situation.
I don't like that Nikki is like walking around at Fright Nights or whatever, Universal Studios.
She's like, she's a horror movie costume now, like a villain costume.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh, that's the fucking bar.
Yeah, like haunted house, you know, like,
Michael Myers.
Yeah.
Like, haunted thing.
I would love to wear that sweater he's got on.
Oh, yeah.
His sweater game is.
So, yes, he cleans up the cat.
He, uh, and he cries and then he's creeping on this girl's Instagram.
Right.
And then she calls.
Yes, and then she calls.
To tell him, she just, I guess to get him to come to trivia.
Yeah, because she needs his brain.
And then she tells him that she had something to say, to tell him.
And he thinks it's going to be that she likes Sam.
Yeah.
But no, it's that she's quitting the job at the music store.
She says, we're kind of running out of time here, Bear.
Because his friend had said to him that he has nothing but time,
which means that she doesn't want to talk to you after she isn't your coworker anymore.
Yeah.
Again, whoop.
Also, all of his friends are his coworkers.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But they also seem to have been high school friends.
They do.
Yeah.
They do.
They do.
So yeah, she's going to put it in her two weeks.
And while they're on the phone,
she drops her crystal necklace down the drain.
Fucking people who believe in crystals.
Hard agree.
Yes.
Like, what do you believe?
Anyway, let's not go down that route.
Yeah.
So he goes to a store to buy her a new crystal necklace.
Does he buy her a new crystal necklace?
us? Which would actually be a thoughtful thing to do.
It would be a very sweet thing to do.
Does not. No.
Bies a one wish willow.
He buys a one wish willow.
And he is like,
then the woman working about on the counter is like,
just don't come back and complain about it.
Yeah.
Because she is fresh out of give a fucks
and having a completely different conversation
while she's talking to him.
Also, at some points there's a dick-shaped candle
on the counter in front of her,
and then sometimes it disappears.
And I like that a lot.
Because I was like, look at that dick-shaped candle.
Now it's gone.
So he buys the one wish willow.
Well, ostensibly to give it to Nikki.
In lieu of a necklace.
If he had just given it to her,
I feel like she would have made a great choice.
Like, I want to just have the time to work on my book.
I'd like to have endless pizza.
Yeah.
Always good, always fresh pizza.
God damn.
Forever.
Never, never, never, never.
Is that really what your one would be?
I don't know.
It's not a bad wish.
It's not a bad wish.
It's not a bad wish.
Because you can give it away.
You can feed people with it.
You know, it's not like it's entirely selfish.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Oh, man, me and the Gaza soup kitchen going and just giving pizza out to people?
Flinging slices, baby.
So we do learn that people complain about this.
This is a thing that people complain about their one wish.
So he goes to Trivia night.
He's all morose because his cat died.
Yeah, but he's kind of like hamming it up.
You think so?
doesn't actually care about this cat.
No, he's playing it to get Nikki's sympathy.
Okay.
Interesting.
Interesting.
Yeah.
Because I, as I said, I watched this movie with Vicky who came up with like a whole other
theory of the movie.
Oh, really?
Based around the cat.
Yeah.
We'll get to it.
Why is she not on this episode?
I actually thought about it and then I was like, I actually can't.
So Ian the whole time does not want him to ruin trivia by telling Nikki how he feels about
her.
Yeah.
But you're right, ulterior motives.
Yes.
And while they're like chatting at the bar, he like rolls up talking about a gun that Sarah's dad keeps in the store safe.
Sure.
Yeah.
I'm so stoked about who plays Sarah's dad.
Andy Richter.
I would love to watch him do anything, you know.
So Nikki makes fun of him for ordering a Pina Colotta.
Yeah.
Because he doesn't like the taste of alcohol.
Yeah.
I mean, strong opinion.
Pita Ciladas are gross.
I love a Pia.
a lot of but I also I like the taste of alcohol so I'm kind of all over the place.
You're hard to nail down.
I'm actually easy to nail down.
It's because I've drunk too much and I'm lying on the floor.
Humber hammer hammer.
I took shots this weekend.
They take shots.
I took shots.
They two teach shots.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Last time I took a shot, it was a beer.
Were you doing power hour?
A friend of mine wanted to give me a shot for my 50th birthday and I was like, I didn't
really do a hard alcohol.
She's like, we'll do a fucking beer.
and I was like, in.
Pour me an icy light.
So,
um,
he doesn't get to tell them that Sandy died,
but he is able to tell Sarah who reacts with the kind of horror and sadness.
A friend should react with her.
Sarah's great.
She's a fucking catch.
She's a catch.
And as a couple of these videos that I watch pointed out,
they are the couple that has chemistry.
Yeah.
Sarah and Bear have good chemistry together.
They do.
But she's just not as like conventionally hot.
but also very hot
She's a goth girl
Yeah
Everybody knows
Do you have a fucking septum piercing?
Yes, thank you, I'm in
They end up leaving
They're going to like drive to another bar
Which is like why I live in the city
So then I never have to do this
Sure
But Nikki's like I do not want to go to another bar
I just want to go home
So Bear agrees to take her home
Yeah
Then she takes money from Sarah
And gives it to the homeless person
Which is meant to show us how great she is
It's a real save the cat moment
Not only does she give him money, but she takes time to speak to him.
Yeah, that's true.
Yeah.
So it's really, it's like, oh, you're a kind human being.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
In the car, she says that she's not feeling love and she wants to feel love so she can write her book.
Yeah.
And he's, of course, offended by this.
Yeah.
Why?
Because she should love him.
Oh, right.
Yeah.
When she actually reads from it later, is that the book she's been working on or has, like,
new Nikki?
written that because that is not a love story.
I miss, so,
I think it's old Nikki,
like coming through new Nikki.
Okay.
So we can get into that.
You think that is her love story.
No, I think that is like her horror story.
I see.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean,
it's about getting fucked by a brother,
which is,
right,
which is what Mickey refers to him as being
when she's talking to Sarah,
which is related to him by Ian.
Yeah.
So he's going to take Nikki's home and he tells her I've got a gift for you and her reaction is,
Ew.
Why does that make me nervous?
And he says that's an odd reaction, which it is not.
It is not.
You're a weirdo.
No, you should be stoked that you have a friend who's so honest with you about how she feels about that.
They have like a little tip when they get out of the car.
He calls her freaky Nikki.
She gets upset.
Yeah.
And then she says, do you like me?
Because if you do, now is the time to tell me.
And also she tells it, she asks him this, after she has closed a door, so there was an entire car between the two of them.
Right.
Yes, because as, was it Margaret Atwood who pointed out that men are worried that women will reject them and women are worried that men will kill them?
I think it might have been.
Yeah, I think it was Margaret Adwood.
So it's like she has put a buffer betwixt the two of them before she asked him if he likes her.
Yeah.
He says, I think we're good friends.
Yeah.
Because he's a puss.
Right.
Yeah.
And a coward and a dickhead.
Because if he had just said it, she could have turned him down and then it would be over.
The movie would have ended right there.
Yeah.
And he could be like, oh, well, maybe we could just be friends because you're actually a really
rad human being who I shouldn't want to be friends with.
No, men aren't friends with women unless they want to fuck them.
Except you would meet because we're platonic life mates.
Yeah.
Yes.
Doi.
So he pulls out the one which Willow says, I wish Nikki Freeman love me more than anyone in the
fucking world and then snaps it.
Yeah.
And then cut to she is standing in silhouette.
Yeah, backlet.
Outside of her house.
Yeah.
She comes down to the window and says that she wants to go home with him, I think.
She says, I did just lose my cat.
Oh, wait.
I mean, you lost your cat.
Yes.
Yeah.
We can have some drinks and talk about your cat.
This is like where she's still aware that something is wrong.
She's like, I'm acting so weird.
This is so weird.
What the fuck?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
And he's still like, what are you doing?
What the fuck?
fuck this is so weird yeah what did you yeah what weird how that happened huh because is this a world
in which magic is real yeah i mean yes just based on the billion dollars right right yeah but like
does he know this prior to the one wish willow oh i don't think so okay okay so uh so she comes up with
she concox a impossible fable or story or
tall tale about her father being dying of cancer.
Yes.
And she's like puts her head on the dashboard crying and then turns her head to like look at him to see how he's reacting.
And it's very uncomfortable.
Yeah.
He still takes her home with him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What are we doing, guys?
He takes her to his house.
Which is his grandma's house because she died.
And he lives in it.
Yes.
And then her medication is the medication he's been taking that killed his cat.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Um, she asks him to sleep there and then takes her shirt off.
Yeah.
To which I've written, God, he really is just awful.
But he, like, when she's taking her shirt off, he turns away from her.
I think he just doesn't know what to do.
I don't think it's like out of a, uh, a sense of, like, propriety or morality.
And he's just like, tuts.
Then, what em tits?
They're kissing.
Yeah.
And she, like, leans back, pulls back and then, like, freaks out.
out like what the fuck so i i wonder if it's because she closed her eyes to kiss him and then
when she closed her eyes he wasn't there anymore he wasn't there anymore so like it broke the
spell for a little bit and she was able to like scream and figure out what the fuck was going on
yeah because she breaks through a couple times but they get sort of like rarer yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah so
uh he he does the the the the chivalrous thing he sleeps on the floor
while she sleeps in the bed.
Right.
And he can't sleep so he's investigating the one-wish willow to see if it's real or not.
On a website called Threadit.
So clever.
I love that.
You love to see it.
So he goes to the bathroom and then he comes back and she's awake and asks him what he's been doing.
Yeah.
He, he, when she's made breakfast.
No, no, no.
This is just in the middle of the night and she asks him to come lay with him.
Oh, right, right, right.
Yeah.
Now it's morning.
Now it's morning.
And she has made breakfast and there's a little something on the floor.
It's a little memorial to his cat.
Yeah, except what?
Except it's got the whole cat body in it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Memorial to the whole cat.
And you don't, you don't open casket a cat.
Listen, if you're a demon, probably don't know what's going on.
I don't think she's a demon.
I don't think she's a demon.
No?
No.
She's in like a sunken place or something though, right?
She is just a version that he's,
created of what he wants.
She's not possessed.
It's like her real self is suppressed, in my opinion.
Sure.
She's suppressed and that the version of her that he invented is the one that's like taking
center stage.
Because later she's like, she's sleeping right now.
Please kill me.
Like I can't live with this anymore.
And I took that as being something else was inside of her suppressing her.
Yeah, this other version of her.
But it's not a demon.
Okay.
Demons are like, you know,
Pizzou.
I'm thinking Pizzuzzi.
I'm thinking Pizzuzzi.
I'm thinking Pizzuzzi here.
You're always thinking Pizzuzzi.
I am regularly thinking Pizzuzu.
He doesn't like the memorial to his cat.
He's not into it.
He's very upset by it.
Not upset enough.
Sure.
She's like, he says, this is fucked.
And she goes, well, I don't know if it's fucked,
bear.
And he just is like, okay.
Because I'm not of this world.
Yeah.
But also, like,
Like, you hadn't done anything about the situation.
You hadn't, like, called anybody to take care of the situation.
Maybe he was going to bury the cat later.
We don't know.
We don't know.
He wasn't.
He's a piece of shit.
Okay.
So he goes to work and who works with the music story.
It's our guy, Andy Richter.
Andy Fugger Richter.
Andy Richter is Sarah's dad.
Yeah.
And I just love Andy Richter.
He's fucking great.
Yeah.
American Treasure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So he has this con, they come in together, which obviously everyone's like,
Yeah, Ian's very like, oh, you fucked her?
You fucked her?
And they're having this conversation in like the break room while she is in the background just staring at them the entire conversation.
Yes.
Very good.
Yeah.
I like that a lot.
Yeah.
This actor is fucking phenomenal.
She's phenomenal.
And I think a lot of the shots are, I mean, you know, I'm not, I don't know much about film.
Sure.
But, uh, you taught me about the Dutch angle.
And then I promptly forgot what it is.
And then when you brought it up to me, I was like, I've never heard this before in my life.
It's shot really well
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
What is the guy's name
Curry Barker
Currie Barker
Fucking
He's a good filmmaker
Great eye
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
So yeah
We kind of like
Speed run to the work day
Um
And Ian like says that he talked to her
And she's fine
That she was like on Molly or something
Yes
Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
MDMA
MDMA
MDMA
MDMA
Mm-hmm.
SMD-H.
SMD-H.
M-D-M-A.
So he goes home and then there she is at the door,
wearing like a red cocktail dress.
Sure.
As you do.
Do you?
No, I don't.
No, no, no.
So she says she knows that he likes her.
And her eyes are glowing.
Like she's shot in the dark with like a light behind him.
So you just are getting this like glint in her eye.
I think this is what's giving me the demon vibes.
I think it's just glinty.
Sure.
Sure.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think both things can be true.
Yeah.
Yeah, she says, I know you like me, Bear.
And he's like, no, because he's a fucking pose.
And then he's like, why?
Do you like me?
Like, are they 11?
How old are these children?
35.
35, I forgot up.
No, like early 20s and like, yeah, I mean, I get it.
Like, no, I don't like you.
Do you like me, though?
Is that a thing you like?
I don't think I've ever been that, that, what's the word,
coy.
That's not my vibe.
I'm coy as hell, Doc.
You are probably coy as hell, aren't you?
Yeah, probably.
You're a cad.
I think that's what, what upsets me about this type of thing is like, oh, yeah, no, I see
myself in this stuff.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
I wasn't great.
I've gotten better as I've gotten old.
I mean
I would hope so
One would hope
One would hope
So we get this montage of fucking
And kissing and looking at a comic
That says I want to wear your skin as a sweater
Goofing off, you know
Sure
Sarah hates it because of course she does
This is oh this is why I have the
Fun rom-com type shit that's going on
Yeah
Yeah they're like cooking together
And it's
Fucking shit
Yeah
So they go out to dinner.
Yes.
During this montage.
And Ian keeps calling while they're at dinner.
And so he has to finally take the call from Ian.
And she gets annoyed that he has to take the call.
For sure.
Don't touch the laptop, buddy.
Ian's like, I looked into her dad having cancer.
He's been to work every day.
Who'd you call?
He says he called the hospital.
And he says he called, yeah, his work and the hospital,
because they'd never heard of him.
Why would they give you his records?
You're a kid from music shop.
Oh, PPI doesn't exist in this universe.
Seriously.
He also tells Bear that Sarah said that Nikki had friend zoned him, basically.
Yes, that she thinks of him as a brother.
So, yes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
She gives him a gift.
It's a tiger's eye.
It's a tiger's eye.
That belonged to her mom for confidence and willpower.
Yes.
And she says,
Stop being a fucking pussy.
Bear, I love you so, so, so much.
I don't think I could live without you.
Yeah.
He asks if her dad has cancer and she flips.
This is the first time we get to see her like go baddie.
And this is superior acting at this point.
She's great.
When she stands up and goes, no, no.
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, which reminded me of...
Don't do that. I thought we were having a nice date.
It reminded me of the no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. So, I mean,
there are a lot of get out parallels in this, I think. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, I thought that
was, like, fucking, like, oh, oh, oh, this is bad. Yeah.
And the scene ends with, like, her asking him if she, if he cares either way.
He's like, I don't care either way.
Yeah, she's like, then why does it matter?
And he's like, it doesn't.
Cut to them having sex.
No, he is fucking her.
No.
Nay, he is raping her.
She is just staring to the side and he does not notice.
Yeah.
It's fucking awful.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
And I was like, I don't want to be watching this movie.
No.
I don't like this.
This is not fun.
And then she goes, that was amazing baby.
And my heart broke.
And he takes it as, yeah, it was.
Yeah, I'm pretty good at this.
I did that.
Yeah.
I didn't even look at you.
But just, yes.
He's a bad dude.
He's a bad person.
He falls asleep after this coitus.
And when he wakes up, she's not next to him.
She's not next to him.
Where is she, Alan?
She's sitting in the corner of the room.
She's just staring and whispers, go back to sleep.
I'm watching you sleep.
She does.
She does like a little dinosaur walk in slow motion.
It's very creepy.
And then slides back into the corner.
But there's like a second of him having this like post nut clarity right before he falls
asleep of just being like, this isn't good, right?
I mean, no.
But I'm going to go to sleep anyway.
But I'm not going to like figure anything out.
Why would I fix this?
Well, he's going to have to, because she wakes up in the middle of the night and says,
I don't like my dreams and then start sobbing and says, I feel like you don't love me as much as I do.
Like, it's not mutual.
Why don't you love me?
And then she, like, moves sideways across the room holding a vase of flowers in front of her face.
It's so good.
I got these for your cat.
It's so good.
She's so good.
Why is it so scary that she's got him for his cat?
I don't know.
for Sandy.
And then she just goes back to bed and goes to sleep.
Well, no.
First he tries to leave and then she goes, stay.
And I do think there's some element of this that like irks younger men in terms of having
women having behaved like this towards them, which I think is what's confusing men on
the internet where they're like, you know, have had a controlling girlfriend.
Sure.
And then see her as a villain.
as a result of that.
There's a bit of like,
I don't think there's ambiguity,
but I can see how people might.
Huh.
Okay.
I've never had a girlfriend in my life
that was anywhere near controlling like that.
No.
I wish you would have just said,
I've never had a girlfriend in my life,
and we could just pretend you were a virgin.
I mean,
women don't exist, so.
There we go.
He wakes up in the morning,
and she has cut his hair.
She has cut his hair.
He says,
let's not do that. She says, okay. Where'd that hair go? Did she do it because she was doing
something with the hair? Or did she do it because his bangs looked stupid? I don't know, but he doesn't
even freak out the fact that she's fucking duct tape the door shut. No, neither of them really addresses
it except then she's like, well, if you're having trouble, you should just stay here. I really like
that shot, though, of like him turning and like it's kind of like a pulling back. And there's a
wall over the like duct taped door. Yeah. Yeah.
But I felt like it's played for like a comedy beat.
Oh, I didn't think so at all.
Okay.
Yeah.
I think it's like, oh shit, how long has she been at this?
Because you know how long that would take?
I do.
I have duck takes the door.
You can't leave.
I was like, jump out the window.
She has packed him a lunch.
She's packed him a lunch with photos.
And she's practicing her big smile.
Oh, I hated it so much.
I hate it, but I love how expressive she is.
Sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, she's great.
She's a fucking fantastic.
like apparently she was just like a TikTok person.
Yeah, I guess.
And she made like no money from this.
But now she's going to be in like a, I don't know, she's going to be Wonder Woman or something.
Sure.
Why not?
Whatever the fuck.
Why wouldn't you be?
She's going to be the next James Bond's.
She M. Al Jers.
Elba.
Yeah.
James Bond's for life.
Oh my God.
So.
Oh, no, please.
No, please.
No, please.
So we see him at work and he's got his lunch.
Wait, no, she pisses herself first.
Oh, that's right.
So this is where Vicky came up with the cat thing.
So she stands by the door and just stands there and pisses herself.
And when he gets home, she is also vomited on the rug.
Right.
So Vicki's theory, hold on.
With the way, she explained it to me, I was like, actually, that's pretty good.
And now that I want to say it out loud, it sounds insane.
Is it that she's possessed by the cat?
No, it's just that she becomes like the replacement.
to the cat.
And then at the end,
he tries to kill himself
with the same pills that killed the cat.
She thinks the cat is well more wrapped
into all of these emotions than I did.
But, you know, cats just pee-and-puk on your rug, so.
Constell.
Freya, my cat, puked between the couch cushion
and the couch the other day.
Good for her.
Great spot.
Like she had to, like, push the cushion.
She was like, I'm going to save this for later.
Like Vicky does with chips when she's
some on your couch. Shove them into the couch cushs them onto the couch. She sure does.
But I just assumed it was that when he's not there, she stops. I think that is it.
Yes. But I like the idea, the Vicky theory of obsession, that somehow he has become, she has
become the new cat. And then when he has to end the relationship, he ends at the same way the cat
ended their life. I would believe it if at any point she made biscuits on him.
Maybe she did in that cute little montage scene.
I wouldn't be surprised if she was making biscuits on him.
Anyway, yes, he opens his lunchbox and there's Polaroids.
There's a Polaroid of him.
Labled you.
And then a Polaroid of the two of them.
Labeled not me.
Not me.
It's a bit unnerving.
And he takes it in stride.
He's taken a lot of things in stride at this point.
So Sarah tells him that she thinks it's super weird, that they're super dating.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And that Ian is having a party.
Yeah.
That they're not invited to.
They're not invited to.
And then she gets a letter from a college from Andy Richter.
She has not gotten in.
She has not gotten accepted.
At this point, I realize there's a no playing stairway to heaven flyer up in the music store.
And I thought, Wayne's World.
Cute.
Cute.
So his lunch smells weird, Sarah tells him.
Yeah.
There's a note of posted on it that says, for my little food critic.
Yeah.
It's on a C-3.
Lid.
Yeah.
Sarah turns the lid over.
Yeah.
What's it say?
Uh, it says, no detached.
Says, what's the verdict on the cat?
What's the verdict?
Cat?
What's the verdict?
Cat?
So he looks at the sandwich.
Yeah.
realizes it's made of the cat.
And fur.
And fur.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he turns and starts vomiting into a trash can.
Uh-huh.
And Ian screams from off camera, Bear, what the fuck?
And I thought about in Hell House.
Hell House.
I'll see when the one guy is running.
and then vomits and the other guy just goes, what the fuck?
And I thought, fuck, I wish I was watching that.
That's a chill movie.
That's a chill fun movie.
It's a chill fun movie where I don't have to feel bad about men and women interacting with each other.
Yeah, it's true.
They sidestep that by having one woman.
And Paul's theme.
I think it's Paul who pukes.
I think it is.
So Ian kind of questions him about his relationship with her.
Right.
And talks to him about how he might be taking advantage of her because he talked about how she was having a mental breakdown.
Yeah.
He says it looks like Nikki's going through something and you're taking advantage of it.
Yeah.
And he's like, what?
She's all over me.
Yeah.
He says to Ian, why are you trying to ruin something good?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
So he says, I'm having a party.
Why don't you come?
It's just bros.
Just a boy's night.
And if your relationship is healthy, then it's okay for you to just have some space.
Yep.
So this is when he calls the one wish line.
Yes, he hears the song from the, like the little melody that it plays before you break it.
Out of the box.
He finds the box and calls.
and the guy is like, it's a very strange voice
and he says like,
you want to cancel it.
And he's like, no, no, I want to keep the wish.
I just want to alter it a little.
I want to keep this woman subjugated
to a relationship with me
where she does not want to be in it.
But like differently.
Yeah, where I have crushed her autonomy.
But differently.
Yeah.
A little bit different.
Just like a little.
Like maybe.
I just want her not to be weird.
I just want to not have to clean or be embarrassed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Can't you just be cool while I'm,
subject,
subject her autonomy.
And then he's like,
no,
no,
fine,
let's cancel it.
And the guy says,
that's not really
something we do.
No,
that was pretty funny,
actually.
That apparently is
the director of the movie.
Oh,
nice.
Yes.
And then he says,
just because you chose
this for her
doesn't mean
it's any less real.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And how can he
break the curse
or break the wish?
He can,
he can die.
He can die.
Yeah.
He says,
do you want to talk to her?
And then it's just
Nikki screaming.
Screaming in hell.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not in hell.
Just, you know.
What are you going to call it?
Not hell?
Yeah.
Your autonomy has completely been taken away from you.
I mean, that's being an American woman, really.
Just kidding.
I drove a car over here.
It's true.
But I will need your credit cards before you leave.
Oh, yeah.
I haven't had those for six months.
But, yeah, he comes inside.
Yeah.
And she's standing in the same spot.
Covered.
and piss and vomit.
And when she goes to walk to him,
the carpet slashes,
which is a wonderful touch.
It did look like she had been puking up cat food,
if I'm honest with you.
Yeah, it looked like kibble.
It looked like cat poop.
Either kibble or like Reese's buffs.
Yeah.
He says, what the fuck is this?
And she says, I ate a bug or I have a stomach bug
or I don't know.
She's just like short-circuiting.
Because she's a demon and doesn't know how human.
I don't think that's it,
but I appreciate your take on this.
Yeah.
She says, I'll go shower and I'll clean it up, I promise.
And she goes into the bathroom and like slams the door.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
And he says, you can't cook the cook or can't cook the cat.
And her response is, okay, honey.
Okay, honey.
I'm very upset about that, he says, yeah.
I like what he says, Ian invited me to a boy's night tonight and then the water just like screeches stopped.
Yeah.
And you can hear the curtain open on the shower too.
So scary.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She's great.
And then she screams?
Just screams.
Yeah.
So she goes.
She's doing this like,
if you would want me to go,
you would have told me to go.
And then they're at the party.
If you didn't mean to do it,
you wouldn't have done it in the first place.
Yeah.
Okay, I have an issue with this
because you can't just pull a jenga block from the top.
That's not how jenga works.
But do jenga with things you have to do on it?
Yeah, drinking jenga, I guess.
I guess.
That's weird.
They're kids, you know.
Sure.
You play Fortnite.
Yeah.
I love Fortnite.
You should understand.
I found this whole scene to be incredibly fucking stressful.
Like, it builds so much tension and it's so awkward and uncomfortable.
And, like, you're so on edge during it.
Just because they're playing jenga wrong?
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know how I feel about rules.
I rules lawyer jenga.
So the, the, the, there's, like, something gets pulled where they're like, you have to switch seats with somebody.
So a guy switches seats with bear.
And then bear pulls a jenga that says you have to kiss the person to your left.
This is after she's read from her book.
Oh, she already read from her book, the Hansel and Gretel story.
It's a Hansel and Gretel story where in Hansel and.
Hansel is trying to, or excuse me,
Gretel is trying to fuck Hansel.
I am more than your wife.
I am your sister.
Brother, you will be inside me tonight.
Something about filleting his meaty forearm and jerking off with it.
It's fucking wild and she's doing this crazy little voice and I fucking love it.
She's so upsetting.
It's so weird.
It's so funny.
Then she like sits down just like, just a book I'm working on.
There wasn't a prompt to read the last story that you've written, was it?
I don't know.
Yeah, because she's like, I did the thing.
I don't have to drink.
Huh.
Drinking jenga is weird.
Drinking and literary jenga.
So he pulls a jenga that says he has to kiss the person on his left.
Which is Sarah.
Which is Sarah.
Which causes Nikki to stand up.
Pull Sarah backwards.
She stands behind her for like a very,
long second where like Sarah doesn't
dare look behind her
and then pulls her backwards.
Yeah. And kneels down and
puckers up. Yep. It's so
uncomfortable. It's so good.
Yeah. And then she does
this really sad like little kid
face.
Where she's pulling like the super frown.
Yeah, she's got the super frown.
This is when she thinks he's going to kiss Sarah.
Yeah. It does like a monologue about
the strength of their connection.
Oh, and then
She's just like, I'm just messing around, except I'm not.
You guys will never know this love that we have between each other.
Deal with it.
Oh, it's so good.
No one on earth will ever comprehend how it feels to love someone like I love you and everyone will die,
never feel in the strength of a connection I have with my bear.
Yikes.
Ian says he wants some jello shots, which is a great icebreaker.
Tension in that room is so thick.
You could cut it with a knife, get the jello shots.
Do you know the only person I've ever done Jello shots with?
It's definitely me.
You know why?
I love Jello shots.
I really do.
What's not to like?
It's Jello, it's liquor.
Jello and shots.
Who's mad at this?
Who's mad?
So what does she do with a bottle in her face?
She's smiling at Bayer.
And then she like catches herself, realizes what she's doing and gasps.
She screams, it's not me, it's not me, and starts hitting herself in the face.
Yep.
Mm-hmm.
And Bear's reaction is to do nothing.
Everyone's like, Bear, she needs your help, Bear.
Help her.
Help her.
And he's just staring straight ahead.
He's not even looking at her.
He sucks.
Yeah.
Now, in my first watch of this movie, I was kind of like, God, like, is he just, he just
doesn't know what to do.
Like, he has a secret that he tricked her into this.
He can't tell anyone.
No one would believe him anyway.
Like, almost, like.
like, oh, wow, what would you even do?
But on the third watch, I'm so over him.
Yeah, yeah.
It's not that.
It's that she's not doing what he wants her to do.
This isn't the love he wanted.
Yeah, so he's just disassociating.
Yeah.
So they go home.
They go to the ER and for some reason she's like dancing and prancing
while he's arguing with someone?
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Then they go home.
Okay.
Sorry.
Yes.
Um, and he gets up to go to the,
bathroom. She says, can I stand outside, but I wish she had said, can I hold it while you pee?
You ever had a woman ask if they could, if she could hold it while she'd be? Of course.
What is that urge? What is that urge? I mean, why not? I mean, no, it's not you people.
It's us people. I wonder why we want to do that. Because you can't do it yourself.
Yeah, like, it's not ever, you know, it's not ever really negatively impact me.
You can let me know whether or not you want that cut from the podcast.
Oh, no, you can leave that in.
I mean, everyone's nodding along with this, right?
All non-penis havers are agreeing.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
Is this when she says that she knows that Sarah likes him?
Yeah.
And then he asks, do you like me?
Is Nikki happy?
Does Nikki like me?
Yeah.
Love it when you're third person this shit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Until like this moment, I think he really believed it was real.
Do you?
Yeah.
Oh.
I thought he just wanted it to be real.
Maybe.
What's the difference, really?
One is understanding that you've done a bad.
Ah, yes.
That's why he made that phone call to see if he could fix it.
And I was like, I don't actually want to fix it because if I fix it,
then I'll have to acknowledge it.
I'm a fucking piece of shit.
Well, in order to fix it, you have to die.
Which is a big ask.
I guess.
Who doesn't want the sweet release?
Please come for me, death.
One last caress.
He tells her to be normal and tells her to just be Nikki.
Yeah.
He says we need space from each other.
And she's doing like, and I don't want space.
I think this is the bit that gets men upset.
Do you see what I'm saying?
Yeah, I think this is the thing that men think women are going to do that women don't actually do.
I mean, I've never experienced it.
I've never liked a man this much.
I've never experienced it.
And I've been a man this whole time.
This whole fucking time.
But you've never had a girlfriend.
You're a virgin.
Your lived experiences.
Is she a little?
version?
Is she a version?
We should have done Monster Squad again.
There's a good scare here where she's like,
I love you in every reality bear,
and then she like walks backwards in slow motion
with weird sort of indistinct speech.
Like, okay, fine.
And then he's like, I'll just go and sleep at Ian's.
Yeah.
And she tells him what will happen if he does.
Yeah, I don't, she starts with, I don't need your attention, and then she comes back with a knife.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She gives a very disturbing monologue about killing herself.
Mm-hmm.
Yep.
Darkness is, there's, it's not darkness.
No, sweetie.
Darkness is a color.
There's just nothing.
Yeah.
Or you could stay.
So he gets a text from Sarah.
turn off your phone sounds bro it's 2.30 in the morning
yeah you can set up your phone now but do not disturb after like 10 p.m.
My phone has been on silent for like 15 years.
I know yours never is because it goes off all the time while we're recording and I get mad
because you're not being professional.
Well, I'm a millennial.
I mean I'm Jed Z. I'm Jed Z. We love having a ring around.
Try again.
But yeah, Sarah says if he doesn't meet her then she's coming over.
Yeah, yeah.
And then we get to the most, one of the most disturbing scenes in the movie.
What's that?
sleeping, Nikki, talking to him as Nikki, saying, bear, kill me.
Please, she's sleeping.
It's me.
Please don't wake her up.
Just kill me.
Yeah.
So let's just say, let's just say hypothetically.
Yeah.
You're in bed with your partner and they say that to you.
Yeah.
You're just going to go meet your friend.
You say, you make it about you by saying what would be so bad about being with me.
How can you see that line delivery and still go, he's just a man trying to
through this world.
I think a lot of men on Reddit
have a lot of reasons to
feel that way.
Or so they believe.
I know that this will be detrimental to my own
livelihood, but men
get the fuck offline.
Turn the internet off.
We need them. We need them. That's how we make money.
Yeah. Or just be chill on the internet.
Just be chill everywhere.
Just be cool.
It's not going to have.
Just go read some like
fucking Ursula Kayla Gwyn
and go chill out for a while
Read some bell hooks
What are you guys doing?
Bell hooks
Come on Alan
These are big asks for people
Bell hooks fucking changed my life
I'm sure actually
Read some bell hooks
Go read some bell hooks
I've never been with you bear
Just kill me please please please please
I've never been with you
Yeah
I've never been with you
Yeah
How is that not the end of this
movie.
Well,
because we gotta get
Sarah smoking with
the windows up.
Come on.
You're too young and
beautiful for this.
How does he just
not fill his pockets
full of rocks
and walk into the ocean?
I don't know.
Oh.
Sarah has now
tried to tell him
twice that Ian and
Nikki have been
fucking.
Yeah.
She tried to tell
him once in the
store and now
once at the beginning
of this conversation.
Sure.
And it's like they've been
fucking and it's a
totally casual thing
and they don't actually
care about each other.
But now she's taking advantage of you.
And he's like, she's not taking advantage of me.
Oh, yeah, y'all.
They've been hooking you up for years.
Yeah, two years.
Yeah.
She's got the letter from Luther.
You think she's going to get into Luther?
She's going to get into Luther.
Of course, she's going to get into Luther.
Yeah.
Speaking of Idger Selba, great Idriselba TV show, Luther.
Yeah.
And that baby, what did you call that guy who's like sidekick who's a hunky baby?
Hot Ziggy.
Hot Ziggy.
Hot Ziggy.
Hot Ziggy, hunky baby.
You can see my confusion.
Of course, of course.
What's Nikki do?
What's Nikki do?
So they have this,
there's this moment where she and Bear have great chemistry.
Yeah.
Of like, she's like,
well, I was the one on your left.
And he just like smiles at her and she smiles back.
And it's really cute and sweet.
And he's like, you can give me a tattoo.
You know, I don't know if that happened before.
but they really do have good chemistry.
Sure.
Nikki runs up with a brick and puts it on the steering wheel
and smashes her face and do it like a million fucking times
and the horn honks every time
and then her eyeball is all the way out.
And tore her teeth.
Her teeth, her eyeball.
And he's just covered in blood.
Yeah.
And Nikki says, this is your fault.
Yeah.
Just remember that you wanted this,
but I'm so happy you did.
You wished for this.
Oh, so they hide the body.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
And he goes back to the crystal necklace, one wish Willow store.
Uh-huh.
The guy who's working now is like my favorite character in this movie.
Oh, fresh out of give a fucks?
Fresh out of give a fucks.
And the guy's like, what did you do?
And he says, she's obsessed with me.
And the guy goes, well, that's not so bad.
He's covered in blood.
He says you could kill yourself.
I mean, I'm just spitballing here.
he can't make another wish.
No, he tries.
But maybe she can.
But he thinks maybe he can get Ian to do it
because he doesn't want to confront the fact
that he has to explain to Nikki
what he's done to her and that it's wrong.
Oh my God.
Yeah, dude.
So what does Ian wish for?
Ian is having none of this
and says, I want a billion dollars
and it just falls from the sky.
It falls from the fucking ceiling.
His bear screams and falls to his knees.
This is like, people were describing this
as sort of like a monkey's paw.
story, but it's pretty evident that if you make a good wish, it's not a monkey spot.
Like, he wishes for a billion dollars.
He just gets a billion dollars, you know?
It's not a, yeah, yeah.
It's not a watch what you wish for.
Right.
It's a like, only wish for a good thing, maybe.
Exactly.
Although I don't think having a billion dollars is really a good thing either.
I mean, I think the director has said multiple times, like, it's not the one wish willow
that's evil.
It's the thing that Bear does that it's evil.
Yeah.
and men are like,
nah,
nah,
nah,
nah,
is that bitch?
I know that's what you're saying.
And I hear you
because you're also a fellow man.
Your words ring.
Anyway,
he goes back to his house.
Yeah.
And she is in the corner of the living room
so that he doesn't see her
when he walks in,
which is also a great shot.
Sure.
That she's like behind him,
having made a terrible shrine.
Yeah.
It's like candles and trash?
Mm-hmm.
And Sarah's naked body is around here, too?
Yeah, because she's wearing the dress that Sarah was wearing at the party the night before.
And she's drawn Sarah's tattoos on herself.
And she's trying to smoke, but doesn't smoke.
Like her body doesn't smoke, which I thought was a very, like, creepy idea.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Can I say, though, that I love the vintage vice flamingo, uh, cigarette poster that's
behind him?
It's real good.
Okay.
So he locks himself in the bathroom.
Because she's going, why don't you love me?
And then she shoots Ian.
She does shoot Ian.
And then she says she's going to shove the barrel of the gun in her pussy, and then she
barfs on him.
Yeah.
As you do.
That's when he locks himself in the bathroom.
I'm sorry.
Yes.
So he's going to, he, she says she's thinking maybe they should break up.
Yeah.
What is that?
I just, I guess to like torment him, I'm not sure.
Okay.
And he's going to kill himself with the gun, but he can't do it.
He can't figure out where to shoot.
He's like trying to find his heart and then he puts it in his mouth.
Sure.
I don't know.
If Charlie Kirk is any indication, I think I'm going for my neck.
Quick, quick and easy.
Oh, no, Alan.
No, no, no, don't take your glasses off.
So he instead decides to take the pills that killed his cat, reinforcing.
Vicki's she has the new cat theory.
Yeah, she thinks it's somehow full circle with the cat.
Sure.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He takes a bunch of them.
And then he tries to make himself barf because, again, he's a puss.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Then he hears the melody and the snap.
Yeah, the one wish willow.
And then he walks out and smiles at her and she smiles of him.
Because she has wished that he would love her as much as she loves him.
Uh-huh.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
And then the, the, the, the, he died.
and the spell is broken and her life is utterly destroyed amongst the bodies of our friends.
Right, because she's going to go to jail for all of this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then it has to go upside down to TV static because this is elevated horror.
You got to go upside down at some point.
Yeah.
And then the credits roll with her scream sobbing over top of them.
Yeah.
Last note?
Last note is the credits roll with her scream sobbing.
Mine is, I don't think I need to see this a fourth time.
No.
No.
No, I'm sad.
No, baby.
three times.
No, I'm done.
I think I'm done.
That's a lot of times.
It's a lot of times because it only came out like this summer.
That's a lot of times for me to see any movie, let alone a new movie, let alone this movie.
I'm going to have to say it's your favorite movie.
I feel like we didn't do a great job making yuck yucks about it.
How you make yuck yucks about this movie?
I don't know.
Isn't that our fucking job?
Can that what they pay us for?
This is free, dog.
Yes, we want to pay us.
We want to get where we actually make jokes.
Patreon.com back slash Whirlfambulence.
Katie.
Alan.
Rating's face.
Do it.
What did you think of this?
I'm so tired.
I think it's a really good movie.
Same.
I think the reaction, my only beef with it is the reaction of some people who watch it,
and that's not the film's fault.
Sure.
Nine and a half?
Oh, wow.
Yeah, I think it's really good.
Okay.
Yeah.
I don't know if I can go that high.
Okay, where are you going?
Nine.
Okay.
I think it's really good.
really good movie. It's really good. I would say if you're a fan of the genre and a fan of film, watch
this movie. And if you're not a fan of the genre or film, what do you do, you don't listen to this
fucking podcast? It's certainly not for the laughs. Just like to hear it for two friends getting together
and yucky yuck yuck yuckin it up. I feel like you got to like something. But it's a movie I don't
think I ever want to watch again. Yeah. Yeah. Like that's my hereditary benchmark. I saw it once.
It was great. Yeah. I'm never watching it again. Yeah. Yeah. That's how I feel about most porn.
Yeah.
Actually, once I've seen it once I've seen it once, it doesn't quite do it for me again.
It's like I know what you're going to say.
Hey, to everyone who's been getting in touch recently about going through separations, divorces, all of this stuff.
Yeah.
I'm so stoked that this podcast can be a safe space for you.
Totally.
Like, I am, this is like, no bullshit.
I'm so glad to get these messages.
I don't always respond to them because I don't always know what to say.
I have responded to some, but I can't respond to all of them because I am still a raw little baby.
Right.
Yeah.
But like, we're here for you.
I'm glad that this brings you joy.
I will reiterate that I think saying yes to whatever is offered to you is the best advice I can give you when you're ready to get back into the world.
Yeah.
Say yes.
Yeah.
Even if it sounds like it's going to be dumb.
Yeah.
Until then, if you just need to watch every episode of Friday Night Lights and Supernatural to get yourself through the day.
That was how I did it.
I watched every season of Broken Wood Mysteries on Acorn TV.
Yeah.
What?
We do what we got to do.
We do what we got to do.
We do what we got to do.
And it gets better.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It'll get better.
You're going to be all right.
So, speaking of getting better.
You want to do another movie next week?
I do want to do another movie next week.
Let's do a movie you chose a few weeks ago that we've been pushing down the list.
Yeah.
For reasons unknown.
Yeah.
Well, we wanted to do it.
do something more topical.
Yeah, that's true.
And then, uh...
I feel like everything that it could ever be said about obsession has already been said,
and we were a little late to that party.
Yeah.
So let's do a movie that's even older.
That no one has talked about ever.
Really?
I don't know if anyone ever talking about this movie.
I mean, it's not like there's other horror movie comedy podcasts.
There's not like there's other podcasts.
What are those?
What?
We're going to do dissent to.
That'll be fun.
It'll be great.
It'll be a little more fun than this.
Hopefully.
Yeah.
I recall it being stupid fun.
Yeah.
Okay, great.
Like I said, Patreon.com back slash wherealv ambulance.
We've got a bunch of action movies over there.
We've got to get back to Nice One, Mate.
Yeah.
This season, we've been going too slow.
We've been going too slow.
That's on me.
I don't know if that's true because the first season, it was like a year between episodes one and two.
Really?
I didn't know that.
Okay.
God, how long have we been doing Nice One, mate?
A long time.
Seriously?
You were 14 when we started.
You know, next month.
they'll be our 12 year anniversary
13 year 12 year 12 year 12 year you're right
I just want everyone to know Alan farted
he's like a foot and a half from me
I've been holding it in for a really long time
it's like the word anniversary sets him off it's like a
it's like a fucking Pavlovian
does it not smell I'm sorry
no it's fine well rad
everything just fell apart guys
we were almost done we're doing the close
bit. You could have held the fart a little bit longer.
I couldn't.
You didn't shit yourself, did you?
Long story shard over here.
Let's wrap this up.
Please for listening to another episode of Weirville
I guess that's it. Bye.
