Welcome to teen Girl Talk. Teen
Girl Talk. I'm Susie Cota, I'm

2
00:00:24.320 --> 00:00:32.799
FRANKN Coota, and this week we
are gently debutante a movie that I just

3
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:38.479
like, I loved it. Don't
get me wrong, amazing, I just

4
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:45.079
I had a hard time parsing it. I guess is what I'll say.

5
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:51.560
Frank, do you think that you're
more of an Anna Sophia or amya?

6
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:58.679
I'm a Miss Dennison all the way. No, Okay, I know that

7
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:02.159
I texted you early on that I
was like, I think I know who

8
00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:04.079
the villain is, and then it
turned out that was the villain. Did

9
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:11.959
you kind of catch it thatter?
Really? I mean I was not on

10
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:17.640
Miss Dennison's side from the jump because
Miss Dennison was horrendously inappropriate with Sophia,

11
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:21.000
like from the get go. Well, I was hoping to not give away

12
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:23.719
that it was Miss Dennison, but
cats at the bag, Miss Dennison is

13
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:32.959
raving, Like, I mean,
we have seen high school revenge movies before,

14
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:38.439
but this is a whole other level. What the thing is The one

15
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:42.879
I most thought of was of like
the most because these are the most petty,

16
00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:48.200
petty like steaks and the one I
was thinking about was the one when

17
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:52.359
the woman comes back to high school
to be a cheerleader again, and like,

18
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:56.519
gosh, I'm trying to remember this. Shed she like coach the team

19
00:01:56.959 --> 00:02:02.840
or something. No, she just
pretended to be a teenager. I made

20
00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:07.840
a whole list. I can pull
it off. But yeah, and like

21
00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:15.360
she ends up murdering like three people
as so yeah, I'm like I'm trying

22
00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:20.240
to I'm really racking my brain.
I usually I would just say it's my

23
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:24.599
memory, but like, I don't
really I can't blame my memory. These

24
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:31.000
are all so similar. It was
identity Theft of a Cheerleader. No,

25
00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:36.319
that was the name, wasn't it. What a clunky name. And I'm

26
00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:40.240
looking back at our month of cheer
movies and if I remember correctilate nobody died

27
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:46.599
during that month, despite one being
called Cheercamp Killer. Yeah. Okay,

28
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:52.159
so I flooded this by Frank before
we started recording, and I know I

29
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:59.080
mentioned this last week. I think
that Lifetime has a new model of like

30
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:06.960
aspiring filmmakers can basically shop out their
films to Lifetime because the and I can't

31
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:14.400
even put my finger on exactly what
the Lifetime sort of style is but this

32
00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:21.319
week's movie and last week's movie The
Rachels, they don't have that sort of

33
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:30.400
lifetime vibe about them. We're not
seeing completely empty model homes. There have

34
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:39.840
been no single moms. We got
a single dad, but usually it's single

35
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:47.159
The movie focuses more on single moms. It's single mom moving with teenage daughter.

36
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:53.960
The teenage daughter usually takes a back
seat to the action to the mom,

37
00:03:53.560 --> 00:04:00.759
and we're always focused on the heroin
this movie, Deadly Debutante focuses on

38
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:06.439
I think I would say, like
the anti hero. This movie could also

39
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:12.400
just be called gaslighting. Gaslighting a
debutante as hard as we can, I

40
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:15.279
know, gaslighting a girl that kind
of seems like she sucks but genuinely hasn't

41
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:23.800
done anything terrible yet. Yeah.
So, even though you didn't ask,

42
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:29.279
I'll tell you, I'm a Maya. You're just constantly calling up youples bullshit

43
00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:34.199
and demanding a big leather line fur
coat jacket. Yeah, leather line.

44
00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:42.920
That sounds awful, and I fall
out of windows, you off balconies.

45
00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:47.959
I mean, she was health.
Here's the other part, the ad R.

46
00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:55.279
There's so much ADR in this movie. And again, ADR is audio

47
00:04:55.600 --> 00:05:02.920
or something dialogue recording like you've got
I'll look it up. If they're filming

48
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:09.120
a scene and the onset dialogue is
muffled or they want to change the line,

49
00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:17.759
an actor will go into the studio
afterwards and like during the editing process

50
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:21.519
and re record the line or record
a new line. And you can usually

51
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:28.120
tell, especially on movies where they
maybe don't have as much money to spend

52
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:36.040
on the audio engineering, because the
room tone is different and the line sounds

53
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:45.360
like it was recorded somewhere else.
So I think that Fia being pushed out

54
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:49.480
the window was actually an addition later, or maybe something else happened to Mia.

55
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:56.680
Mia got pushed out of a window
and has a bloodless injury, which

56
00:05:56.800 --> 00:06:00.360
I found interesting. It does seem
like she only fell one flu, which

57
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:02.720
is not nothing. I'm not,
you know, trying to dismiss me A's

58
00:06:02.759 --> 00:06:09.519
injury, But in a lifetime movie, Mia would have perished, whereas in

59
00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:15.360
this movie, Mia ends up being
sort of a red herring. That's that

60
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:20.040
plot line is never kind of closed
out, where she starts spreading gossip about

61
00:06:20.040 --> 00:06:26.639
Anna supposedly over the hospital Wi FI. Yeah, I mean a lot of

62
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:32.120
things don't kind of pan out in
this movie, Like, we have loose

63
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:35.480
plot threads that just kind of go
into the ocean, and I'm just like,

64
00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:40.319
we'll see them some point in Europe. Yeah, So, Frank,

65
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:45.519
do you want to introduce us to
the world of deadly debutants? Also,

66
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:48.560
I just want to say eight hours
stands for automated dialogue replacement, Okay,

67
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:54.800
And thank you for looking that up
for us before that, Sissy. Yesterday

68
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:59.639
was Jake Jillen Hall's forty third birthday, and had I had this question,

69
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:02.120
if you had to get Jake Jillenhall
present, what present would you give him?

70
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:09.240
Ah, So he's kind of a
bookworm and he's rich, so it'd

71
00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:12.560
have to be a thoughtful present,
as if I have money where I could

72
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:18.079
buy him like an extravagant present.
But I think I would buy him a

73
00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:23.199
book plate in a New York Public
Library book because I think he would be

74
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:28.040
touched by the sentiment. And also
he seems like the type of person who

75
00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:34.040
supports public libraries. And he just
wrote a book about being an aunt or

76
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:40.560
uncle, like a kid's book called
Like the Stupor. This sounds like a

77
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:43.759
commercial for Jake chellen Hall, But
I just follow him on Instagram and I

78
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:51.720
find him incredibly whimsical, so I
would maybe buy a bookplate. Buying a

79
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:55.959
book plate for his own book would
be weird. I really like the pigeon

80
00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:59.759
books, like the kids books that
focus on the pigeon. So I would

81
00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:03.600
buy Jake Jillen Hall a book plate
at the New York Public Library and one

82
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:09.600
of the pigeon books. Maybe don't
let pigeon ride the roller coaster while he's

83
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:18.319
out. My gift for him is
while he's out, Uh, I have

84
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:24.319
like his birthday dinner with his partner. I dating anyone, I don't know.

85
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:26.480
I just assumed. I always assume
all these you know, rich famous

86
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:31.159
people are dating people. Maybe he's
taking this year to work on him.

87
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:39.440
Uh. I know he has a
girlfriend named Jean Cardu. Okay, okay,

88
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:46.279
cado c A d I e U, and she she's writing. She

89
00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:50.000
writes about fashion, parenting, and
pop culture. According to people dot Com,

90
00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:54.519
Okay, but I would as there. I would hire an opera singer

91
00:08:54.600 --> 00:09:01.080
to sing a beautiful aria and then
while that's hop yeah, and then while

92
00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:05.360
that's happening, I would fire off
a T shirt cannon and when he goes

93
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:09.159
to collect the T shirts, it
would be a twe would go to conelect

94
00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:13.240
the T shirt because every time I
fired one, I chell, this one's

95
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:20.600
for you, Jackie boy. If
I was at a romantic dinner with my

96
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:24.519
partner for my birthday and a man
came in and started firing off a T

97
00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:31.279
shirt cannon, I would immediately crawl
under the restaurant table and call nine one

98
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:35.279
one. I wouldn't be scurrying around, especially if I was a millionaire.

99
00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:39.000
I mean no, I could be
broke as out. I could be living

100
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:41.960
up the street. If I was
in a restaurant and a man started firing

101
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:46.600
off a T shirt cannon, I
would still crawl under the table and call

102
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:50.120
nine one one. No, I'm
not he's not getting He's going to just

103
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:54.240
pick up the pile later, so
you said, as he's going to get

104
00:09:54.320 --> 00:10:01.720
them or in between the firing of
the T shirt cannon so hectic and alarming,

105
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:09.559
was like, oh, okay,
this one's for you. Jacob Ollet.

106
00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:11.679
So when he goes to pick up
his product for a singer, is

107
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:16.120
gonna be okay with this? He
goes to pick up his twenty one T

108
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:20.279
shirts because it's twenty one T shirt, can sloot? I know he's turning

109
00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:24.759
forty three. Okay, I continue, I'm not gonna like that would just

110
00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:26.679
be too awkward to stand there and
shoot forty three T shirts. Oh,

111
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:31.200
I'm sorry. Twenty one T shirts
versus forty three forty three is a bridge

112
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:35.240
too far. I do think T
shirt cannons are like single shots, so

113
00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:39.120
I'd have to like reload every time, like I'm a minute maman, and

114
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:46.240
like the Revolutionary War packing a musket. Yeah, and then like when he

115
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:50.759
picks up his twenty one T shirts, you would see they're all just pictures

116
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.879
of their white T shirts with pictures
of him at my twenty one favorite crying

117
00:10:54.960 --> 00:11:01.759
Jake jill in home moments. Okay, Frank, do you think that Jake

118
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:05.720
Jonenhall doesn't have a bodyguard. Well, I'm not attacking him with the T

119
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:11.919
shirts. I'm just attacking the sense
of peace in this restaurant. Do you

120
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:16.360
think this is happening in an army? It's where do you think they're eating

121
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.879
a birthday dinner? Well, it's
probably somewhere of a balcony, and I'll

122
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:26.759
be firing T shirts from that balcony
to wear until like an open area in

123
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:31.879
the restaurant. You'll be firing from
the balcony into the restaurant, these fancy

124
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:39.440
la hotspots they all have, Like, okay, even better, I'll just

125
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:41.840
be firing off into the streets in
New York City and the people in New

126
00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:46.720
York be like, same shit as
always. I Frank, I'm gonna have

127
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:52.759
to think you would be arrested before
you got twenty one T shirts off.

128
00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:58.559
Well, it's gonna be like no, no, let him cook, just

129
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:05.559
let it go. Well, we'll
see what happens anyway, and then you'll

130
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:11.039
end up on the front of the
New York Post. And meanwhile, all

131
00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:13.799
our swifty fans are just staying there, just like all I hope is that

132
00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:18.720
he got tears for his birthday.
Oh my gosh. I mean, like,

133
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:24.720
Frank, I just I you know, I always want to encourage a

134
00:12:24.759 --> 00:12:33.480
plan that is based on flamboyance and
presentation. This plan, I think I

135
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:37.720
could definitely use a second pass.
Okay, more T shirts? Got it

136
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:43.399
all right? So I mean,
yeah, he's starting forty three, you're

137
00:12:43.440 --> 00:12:48.840
not gonna do twenty one T shirts. Speaking of flimsy plans, Oh,

138
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:54.000
I see what you did there.
Let's go into the deadly debutante, and

139
00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:58.480
none of these debutants are actually all
about deadly. No, actually none of

140
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:01.919
them are deadly. Yeah. Uh
so, okay, well here's okay.

141
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:05.159
Here's my thing is I saw that
we were going to get like a spy

142
00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:09.879
verse spy kind of thing where like
it turns out like everyone's trying to off

143
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:15.159
each other, and it's like I
sort of thought so too, and I

144
00:13:15.159 --> 00:13:18.480
think they could have gone that way. I just want every movie to end,

145
00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:22.679
like every Lifetime movie to basically end
like Clue, where it's like,

146
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:28.000
here's how it could have happened,
here's how it actually happened. Okay,

147
00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:39.159
huh. So you know, I'm
trying to think of the parts where like

148
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:46.039
sort of like you said, there
there are threads that don't you don't get

149
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:50.279
tied in. So at the beginning, right, well, the constantly showing

150
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:56.000
Anna in like the evil mood lighting
that they normally have, like we don't

151
00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:01.399
get any shots of our actual attacker, like or he's stalking somebody, or

152
00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:05.919
we don't get to see anyone stand
in the bushes, which is one place

153
00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:13.200
I'm going to give this movie and
needs improvement. The hallmark of a Lifetime

154
00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:22.200
movie is we see our antagonist standing
brightly lit in a bush outside a house

155
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.480
in clear view of anyone who looks
in that direction. I missed that.

156
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:33.639
I love that. And with this
one also, the motivation is a little

157
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:39.759
money. Usually we get a one
to one, right, like my husband

158
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:43.960
left me and now he's with this
new woman. I'm gonna murder her.

159
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:50.200
And first I'll do it like the
orbit of people who are kind of close

160
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:54.039
to her, and then I'll get
closer. I'll kidnap her daughter, and

161
00:14:54.080 --> 00:15:01.080
I'll attempt to murder my husband's new
girlfriend. Or it's the opposite. No,

162
00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:07.000
it's usually that. Sometimes we get
a flip, but rarely so with

163
00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:13.559
this one. The movie opens with
like old timey footage of debutantes and sinister

164
00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:18.639
music. Then we meet Anna.
Anna is in a word, unlikable.

165
00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:26.799
She is a queen bee that does
not seem to have a very loyal court.

166
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:33.919
She is surrounded by friends Nicole,
who will kind of come in and

167
00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:39.159
out of the movie. She's not
super consistent. Mia, who's mentioned before

168
00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:43.080
we meet her, and then once
we meet her, I'm in love with

169
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:48.240
her because she's kind of shitty to
Anna, and it's funny because Anna's mean.

170
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:54.000
And then we see the new girl, who is Brunette and her name

171
00:15:54.039 --> 00:16:03.960
is Sofia, and Sophia is bland. She is given no character arc.

172
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:10.440
We know nothing about this woman other
than that she during an exposition dump between

173
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:15.360
her and her English teacher, who
is like, so strangely invested in her

174
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:19.120
future. But at first I thought
they were family friends. But then as

175
00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:22.840
the movie goes on, it becomes
clearer and clearer that this woman has just

176
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:29.600
fixated on a student and decided that
she's going to back her in the race

177
00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:34.960
of debutant fall Like immediately, there's
no mystery with Miss Dennison, the English

178
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:41.200
teacher, she's creep So Miss Dennison
is like, Sophia, you should go

179
00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:44.279
to the debutante be part of the
debutante ball, and Sophia is like,

180
00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:49.039
I have no interest in that.
And Miss Dennison manipulates her by saying,

181
00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:53.399
but don't you want to go to
Webster College. It's pretty expensive, right.

182
00:16:53.960 --> 00:16:56.720
She stopped short of being like,
and your family's broke as fuck.

183
00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:03.319
There's nothing to get to us that
her family has, like any sort of

184
00:17:03.319 --> 00:17:07.200
financial trouble. She lives with her
dad. He seems like very there for

185
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:11.799
her. They talk about how the
death of the death of her mother has

186
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:17.440
affected both of them. He seems
super supportive, and she goes to a

187
00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:23.759
private school through scholarship. But Miss
Dennison, because so, Miss Dennison is

188
00:17:23.799 --> 00:17:30.519
playing the long game more than any
other lifetime villain we've ever seen. Because

189
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:38.079
Miss Dennison helped facilitate Sophia's scholarship,
got her into this private school, I

190
00:17:38.119 --> 00:17:45.559
guess set up the sort of machinations
to eventually position Sophia don't want to be

191
00:17:45.640 --> 00:17:51.119
part of the debutant ball. Miss
Dennisen will go as far as to apply

192
00:17:51.839 --> 00:17:59.559
for college for Sophia forging her father's
signature. I Am going to say it

193
00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:03.680
now, and I'll say it loud. Miss Dennison needs a hobby, like

194
00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:07.440
no bad. I've never seen a
person so in need of a hobby.

195
00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:14.720
Miss Dennison is on some miss habit
Sam shit right here for sure, for

196
00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:19.400
sure, Like I'm like, I'm
concerned about you. I really need you

197
00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:22.319
to get a hobby. This is
too much. You're doing too much,

198
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:32.960
so excuse me. We mostly are
going to focus on Anna for I would

199
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:37.759
say like three fourths of this film. She will have consistent confrontations with Sophia

200
00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:45.799
based on nothing, and they lead
nowhere. So Anna's mom is kind of

201
00:18:45.839 --> 00:18:51.119
like the least overbearing lifetime mom we've
ever seen. She reminds me more of

202
00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:56.960
Kate Wallace's mom, Maven. Kate
Wallace's mom and Cruel Summer is more overbearing.

203
00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:06.400
Anna's mom is kind of like like
sort of neglectful. Like her husband

204
00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:11.640
is a high powered lawyer in this
small town of Newton, and they go

205
00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:18.400
out to dinner a lot. Anna's
feeling like kind of forgotten and they have

206
00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:23.599
like pretty normal problems. As part
of the debutant, Paul is trying to

207
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:30.960
like keep up with modern day trends, and they require an essay. Uh,

208
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:33.799
They're going to be interviewed by the
judges. It's not just all looks

209
00:19:33.799 --> 00:19:40.039
based. So Anna has to write
an essay. She O, go ahead.

210
00:19:40.440 --> 00:19:45.599
I just want like just I really
want to drill home just how inappropriate.

211
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:51.440
The interaction with Sofia and miss miss
Dennison is, Yeah, like there

212
00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:56.200
is a they are talking by themselves
in an empty classroom that's like, oh,

213
00:19:56.240 --> 00:20:00.200
that's number one. Miss Dennison puts
her hand on Sofia. She'll I'm

214
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:03.240
like that's number two, And I'm
like, if I hear the door open,

215
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:10.359
that's like strike number three of like
teachers don't do this, not good

216
00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:17.400
teachers. Yeah, but the Yeah, there was a point I did think

217
00:20:17.480 --> 00:20:22.279
maybe so like after last week's movie
where it was just like roxy slash Rachel

218
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.799
also did not help other help blonde
Rachel. I thought there was like,

219
00:20:27.160 --> 00:20:30.680
maybe we're gonna get another twist and
Sophia is there, like no, Sophia's

220
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:37.039
not doing anything, and yeah,
but like they do a point out that

221
00:20:37.160 --> 00:20:42.759
what they do like a bit of
visual trickery with Sophia because she comes home,

222
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:48.640
we have her first before we get
to the essay scenes. She shows

223
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:59.160
up at the debutante like introduction or
whatever, and she explains to the judges,

224
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:02.519
oh, I lost my mom and
all these other things. Well,

225
00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:06.440
because someone's like, you know your
parents, and she's like, unfortunately,

226
00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:10.279
my mom passed away and here's okay, so here's the other one. We'll

227
00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:17.160
bring this up consistently as Sophia's sob
story. All Sophia said was my mom

228
00:21:17.240 --> 00:21:22.559
passed away. And Anna's like,
ew, this is why Anna is so

229
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:26.240
unlikable. There's a lot of people
who shit talks of me in this movie

230
00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:33.319
for having a dead mom, Like
I mean, miss Dennis and herself is

231
00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:37.559
like in her dead mom and I'm
like, whoa her said, mommy story?

232
00:21:38.079 --> 00:21:42.559
Oh my god, yes that is
exactly what she says. It's brutal.

233
00:21:42.680 --> 00:21:47.680
And I was like all this woman
did, all Sophia did was exist.

234
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:51.720
And then everyone's like, I'm gonna
project all of my step onto you,

235
00:21:51.880 --> 00:21:57.240
and Sophia's like they're like too late. It is we're taking how fuck

236
00:21:57.319 --> 00:22:07.240
Sophia's life gets throughout this movie and
again she's done nothing. But I think

237
00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:10.640
it's interesting is her dad says like, oh, she's just getting back to

238
00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:14.599
herself, you know, it's been
really hard for her. And Miss Tennison's

239
00:22:14.599 --> 00:22:17.640
like, yeah, yeah, but
I brought her this dress, like this

240
00:22:17.799 --> 00:22:22.039
is a pretty supportive dad character.
Yea. So, but the thing is

241
00:22:22.079 --> 00:22:25.200
they do some visual like I was
gonna say, they do some visual trickery

242
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:32.240
where like she shows up after the
introduction thing and like a bunch of girls

243
00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:36.200
were like no, Like Sophia's very
pretty and like, you know, she's

244
00:22:36.240 --> 00:22:38.480
smart. She definitely has a chance
to win this. And Anna's just like

245
00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:47.720
and it's like, should I use
witchcraft and destroy Sophia. I think there's

246
00:22:47.759 --> 00:22:51.039
the other party. Anna says to
her friend Mia, why don't you just

247
00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:52.960
drop out? And MEA's like,
what, get in? I'm gonna be

248
00:22:53.000 --> 00:23:00.000
involved. Yeah, Mia also like
should talks, so feel a little bit.

249
00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:07.880
It's true she's a bookworm. It
wouldn't I would like I did.

250
00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:11.400
I also did like mea, I
would like me a more of like And

251
00:23:11.519 --> 00:23:15.119
I was just like heard her dead
moms and he was like whoa. Yeah.

252
00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:21.440
Me was like, I go after
her hobbies like it because I was

253
00:23:21.559 --> 00:23:26.240
raised right Jesus, you know she's
literate. That's something to you know,

254
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:38.640
to ride. I guess gross,
you take your stupid kindness and go to

255
00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:44.319
hell. I'd be really bad as
a bully because I just feel like,

256
00:23:44.640 --> 00:23:47.720
yeah, you and your cousinly stung
your nose in that book. By the

257
00:23:47.720 --> 00:23:48.759
way, show me what that book
is. I might want to read it

258
00:23:48.759 --> 00:23:55.799
too, Yeah, would you recommend
it? That's always a problem I have

259
00:23:55.880 --> 00:23:59.000
where I'm like, oh, that's
an interesting looking cover. Can I read

260
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:02.519
the title? No? OKAYVE been
doing this too long? Look like a

261
00:24:02.519 --> 00:24:07.519
creep, Go go go. You
run away firing a T shirt cannon?

262
00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:11.839
You were like, what was that? I shoot the T shirt cannon and

263
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:17.359
then I break a window and then
jump out of the window and fire more

264
00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:23.200
t shirts like a grappling hell can
swing away. Yes, broken windows?

265
00:24:25.039 --> 00:24:30.000
Sorry no, I So Sophia,
Like I keep wanting about this visual trickery

266
00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:33.960
thing where I thought they were living
in like a tiny apartment, Sophia and

267
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:37.759
her dad, and like she comes
home because they only like kind of show

268
00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:41.400
this tiny table and a window,
and he's like, here, I got

269
00:24:41.480 --> 00:24:48.480
us some burgers from that place.
You Like, you're like, oh man,

270
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:52.039
they're eating a meal at a bag
for no, Like I thought like

271
00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:56.240
that was there, that was their
kitchen table, Like that is like the

272
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:59.519
best they had, you know that
that is always kind of a shorthand of

273
00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:03.839
like, yeah, you have Lifetime
movies. If you're not eating at a

274
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:10.319
twelve person table, they're like unfortunate. Huh. Well then they showed this

275
00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:15.720
like these like when later shots are
at the house, it's once again another

276
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:19.559
giant Lifetime movie house. And I'm
just like, how do they not afford

277
00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:26.759
this? And like they only have
one car, you know, like a

278
00:25:26.880 --> 00:25:33.240
bright and shiny like giant SUV that's
clearly like maybe a two years old and

279
00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:42.359
looks very similar to Anna's car.
Yeah, So Narry. A conversation goes

280
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:47.039
by about Anna where someone does not
mention she is rich. I just also

281
00:25:47.079 --> 00:25:52.000
want to point out something about the
ad R. Is the ad R whoever,

282
00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:56.319
like whatever actor was doing it,
and it's a fair number of the

283
00:25:56.359 --> 00:26:02.079
actors they were not putting their whole
heart into it, like because like the

284
00:26:02.599 --> 00:26:07.640
when the ADR comes in, it's
so off kilter to the scene where somebodyle

285
00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:17.200
like look out and like you know, it's bonkers. So yeah, so

286
00:26:18.519 --> 00:26:25.400
about this essay. Anna doesn't want
to write this essay, and she's just

287
00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:27.240
like, hey, parents, can
you guys stay here and eat dinner with

288
00:26:27.279 --> 00:26:30.720
me? And they're like, no, go write your essay. We have

289
00:26:32.519 --> 00:26:36.160
we have stuff to do that doesn't
involve you. You don't get to come

290
00:26:36.160 --> 00:26:41.720
to dinner with us because we are
neglectful. I'm like, guys, I'm

291
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:45.200
really gidding that they're neglectful. I
got it. Cool. And also,

292
00:26:45.279 --> 00:26:49.200
the thing is with Anna's house is
Anna's house is constantly in shadow, which

293
00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:55.240
is another reason I think so dark
in that house at any time of Oh

294
00:26:55.279 --> 00:27:00.039
wait, we completely forgot about the
party. That's why I brought up the

295
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:03.559
broken window. Okay, sorry,
thank you. Do you want to talk

296
00:27:03.599 --> 00:27:07.720
about the party. Okay. The
party is strange because at first I thought

297
00:27:07.720 --> 00:27:10.519
it was just the four girls and
they called it a party, and I

298
00:27:10.599 --> 00:27:15.759
was like, guys, because the
scene opens with the four girls looking at

299
00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:25.880
Anna's mom's debut tanmpball Tiara in the
box woo. Nicole tries it on and

300
00:27:25.880 --> 00:27:30.000
Anna's like, seriously, don't break
it. My mom can't know him having

301
00:27:30.039 --> 00:27:33.599
a party, which is strange.
I thought the point of not breaking the

302
00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:37.640
crown is because this family's obsessed with
the debut Tompball, but no, it's

303
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:44.519
not. And so then the guys
get in from the football game. There's

304
00:27:44.640 --> 00:27:48.880
like beer, No one seems to
be drinking. They're mostly like sitting around

305
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:52.920
in the living room and then the
lights click off and we see a dark

306
00:27:52.000 --> 00:28:00.440
shadowy figure outside and the guy.
No one thinks about calling the They're just

307
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:07.240
like, let's go check the circuit
breaker and then Kenny, who is just

308
00:28:08.880 --> 00:28:12.960
a weenie, like I don't,
I don't. I don't like to say

309
00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:18.359
this normally, but he's just such
a weenie because they're like, oh,

310
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:22.759
did you find the breaker box?
And he says yes, and they're like,

311
00:28:22.880 --> 00:28:25.680
why did you not put the power
back on? And He's like,

312
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:30.000
I didn't want to mess with the
electricity. It's a breaker. Just flip

313
00:28:30.039 --> 00:28:33.240
it. What do you mean mess
with the electricity? Why did you go

314
00:28:33.440 --> 00:28:37.200
find the box? It makes Joe
sense, I guess, just to be

315
00:28:37.279 --> 00:28:40.319
able to come back and tell us
he saw it. I don't know.

316
00:28:40.720 --> 00:28:44.559
Hey, got guys. Let's now
call the electric company and have them send

317
00:28:44.559 --> 00:28:48.920
somebody out and I can show him
where the boxes and he can flip the

318
00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:55.559
switch because you know electricity. So
it's strange. I would have a pre

319
00:28:55.839 --> 00:29:02.079
appreciated Kenny Moore if he was like
like upper society, look down my nose

320
00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:04.640
at the poor kind of people.
He's like like, why did you flip

321
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:10.480
the switch? Like the help,
like I can are the character like that

322
00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:15.680
in Wonka. It's one of the
evil Chaka tears where whenever someone says the

323
00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:22.160
word poor, he goes and they're
like, sorry for listening for our listening

324
00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:27.599
audience, how was Wonka? I
liked that. I think I'm the only

325
00:29:27.680 --> 00:29:33.920
person in the world I really liked
it. I'm not and I'm not I

326
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:37.440
did not ask you that to like
make fun of you. I actually like,

327
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:41.839
I'm very curious about this film because, like I don't really want to

328
00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:45.920
see it. Like, I love
Timmy shallow May, He's very funny,

329
00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:48.920
but I'm just like I just can't
care about a non gene wild or Willy

330
00:29:49.000 --> 00:29:55.400
Wonka. I know, and like
Johnny Depp really messed it up for everyone

331
00:29:55.480 --> 00:30:00.279
honestly with his Wonka. But I
can really forgot about that Wonka movie.

332
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:03.480
I did too. I did not
see it, but I watched the honest

333
00:30:03.480 --> 00:30:10.960
trailer about it and it looks so
off funny. So Hugh Grant plays an

334
00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:21.440
Opallompa in Wonka and he is mad
at Timothy Chalomey because on the Opalompa Island

335
00:30:22.680 --> 00:30:30.079
it's very hard for them to grow
cocoa beans and Timothy Chalomey stole their three

336
00:30:30.359 --> 00:30:37.000
cocoa beans and which were like comically
large in the movie The Props. So

337
00:30:37.160 --> 00:30:44.440
now he is owed one thousandfold and
so Hugh Grant shows up and like basically

338
00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:51.039
as an Opolova best Timothy Chalomey multiple
times, which is kind of funny.

339
00:30:51.440 --> 00:31:02.680
But Slugworth is the one that is
bribing the police chief played by Michael Keane

340
00:31:02.839 --> 00:31:10.279
Is it Michael kean Key yes,
uh, he is addicted to chocolate.

341
00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:18.079
Mister Bean plays an evil priest who's
addicted to chocolate. It's a weird movie.

342
00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:25.039
Is everybody just addicted to chocolate in
this Yes? Okay, chocolate is

343
00:31:25.160 --> 00:31:32.079
like drugs in this movie. I
nearly went down the road of Bummerville,

344
00:31:32.160 --> 00:31:34.680
but like, I justn't want to
say. I read on a thread where

345
00:31:34.680 --> 00:31:38.960
people talking about their interactions with celebrities, and somebody talked about how he met

346
00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:45.039
Gene Wilder, and Gen Waller is
very nice. Oh that's good. Did

347
00:31:45.079 --> 00:31:48.160
mister Bean get canceled? I don't
think so. I haven't really heard anything,

348
00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:53.400
okay, because I like Rowan Axinson
and I couldn't remember if it was

349
00:31:53.440 --> 00:31:57.200
him or someone else. And I
was like, he's getting to that age

350
00:31:57.200 --> 00:32:07.160
where it's treacherous and he definitely could
be prone to saying something problematic. From

351
00:32:07.160 --> 00:32:15.440
what I can say, I know, I think there's h he I know

352
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:23.200
it doesn't anything too bad. The
thing is like the one, the one

353
00:32:23.240 --> 00:32:27.160
thing. The first thing that popped
up was a Reddit thread, and it's

354
00:32:27.240 --> 00:32:35.559
like he's a fake free speech advocate
who believes that like people's yeah, you

355
00:32:35.559 --> 00:32:38.079
should have free speech of your opinions. Agree with his that kind of thing.

356
00:32:38.079 --> 00:32:47.240
I mean, that's everybody. Yeah, So yeah, I'm not sorry.

357
00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:50.960
I was just cham going back to
the movie. I'm just thinking about

358
00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:53.240
something like the Powers Off. It
would have been also very fly, Like

359
00:32:53.359 --> 00:33:00.440
how can you tell? It's like, literally it's already so dark in that

360
00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:04.160
house. I think it's because they're
like watching TV or something that they know

361
00:33:04.240 --> 00:33:08.839
the power went out, but there's
the room was mostly lit by fireplace anyway.

362
00:33:10.039 --> 00:33:17.599
Yeah, and somebody throws a rock
through the window and scampers off,

363
00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:27.799
and it's kind of the least threatening
form this interaction could have taken. Yeah,

364
00:33:27.960 --> 00:33:35.359
I mean, like none of these
threats are overly like that. They're

365
00:33:35.480 --> 00:33:38.440
like it's I mean, if you
if you're a rich white person, I

366
00:33:38.480 --> 00:33:43.400
think they're very bad, but like, you know, I feel like for

367
00:33:43.480 --> 00:33:47.440
other people, like I've seen worse. Yeah, I mean, Anna is

368
00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:55.480
not necessarily the most resilient person.
So then Kenny's like, I think we

369
00:33:55.599 --> 00:34:00.160
need to call your parents, So
they get everyone out. They call her

370
00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:06.440
parents home from the lake house,
and her parents are confusingly non poluced by

371
00:34:06.640 --> 00:34:13.320
like this entire situation. So then
they're kind of like, oh, well

372
00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:19.719
that was strange whatever, Like they're
not they're not super interested, which really

373
00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:25.440
does make the case that Anna has
been pushing that they're incredibly neglectful. So

374
00:34:27.079 --> 00:34:30.079
the thing is like, I'm just
like, why doesn't this giant house have

375
00:34:30.239 --> 00:34:35.000
multiple cameras? That is the other
confusing part, because she's like, well,

376
00:34:35.000 --> 00:34:38.400
my parents can't know about the party, And we see her push a

377
00:34:38.440 --> 00:34:44.000
beer bottle under the couch with her
foot, which like rows she and then

378
00:34:44.039 --> 00:34:47.840
she's like I'm going to bed,
and I'm like, wait, just would

379
00:34:49.079 --> 00:34:53.960
have like security cameras was the lake
house like next door, because like why

380
00:34:53.960 --> 00:34:59.599
didn't she think to like clean up
all the beer bottles? Like you know,

381
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:06.679
Anna does not seem like a character
that is concerned, is detail oriented,

382
00:35:06.880 --> 00:35:08.920
Let's say that. So I just
want to say, yeah, going

383
00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:13.840
back to one of my peers statements
about like I don't like everybody goes through

384
00:35:13.880 --> 00:35:17.800
their own trials and tribulations, but
like I'm just saying for these people's privilege,

385
00:35:17.960 --> 00:35:22.599
like this would these would be a
bigger deal, like should be a

386
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:25.599
bigger deal than they're considered throughout this
movie. Well, this is the other

387
00:35:25.679 --> 00:35:30.679
part. As the movie escalates and
Anna is becoming more and more paranoid,

388
00:35:31.079 --> 00:35:36.039
her parents are becoming more and more
frustrated with her, asking for them to

389
00:35:36.079 --> 00:35:40.320
take her seriously. Yeah, they're
like, oh my god, Anna again

390
00:35:40.440 --> 00:35:45.679
with this people trying to kill you
stuff. We're over. It's like basically,

391
00:35:46.119 --> 00:35:50.559
like there's a line from the mscuther
k movie Space Children, it was

392
00:35:50.599 --> 00:35:54.000
like we had you, isn't that
enough? Like it feels like that,

393
00:35:54.239 --> 00:36:00.960
And even like the mom's fixation on
the debutant ball does not feel all encompassing

394
00:36:01.480 --> 00:36:06.239
in the way we're used to it
in these movies. Yeah, like this

395
00:36:06.280 --> 00:36:07.920
doesn't seem like an obsession. It
just seems like, do this for the

396
00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:16.000
family more miss Dennison's obsession. So
sorry, Speaking of mothers, I have

397
00:36:16.079 --> 00:36:22.800
a theory. I don't think in
half of these movies there's a dead parent

398
00:36:22.519 --> 00:36:27.239
because we need it for the plot. I just think they won't want to

399
00:36:27.320 --> 00:36:31.800
hire one more actor. I would
one agree with that, you know,

400
00:36:32.239 --> 00:36:35.679
like, and that's like one more
plot line we have to deal with.

401
00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:42.559
It's like, no, there we're
missing one, you know, that's less

402
00:36:42.599 --> 00:36:51.320
parent we have to pay. Well, you know, there's actually a bit

403
00:36:51.400 --> 00:36:53.840
like that in the movie. It's
at the Once upon Time in Mexico or

404
00:36:53.840 --> 00:37:04.800
Desperado where this guy uh gave the
two actors truros. Well, they were

405
00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:07.480
filming a scene and they were just
like, we can't stop. We don't

406
00:37:07.519 --> 00:37:10.639
have the much film left. And
they're like, oh, I'm glad somebody

407
00:37:10.719 --> 00:37:15.920
gave us these as. I kept
talking in their lines and eating the churros.

408
00:37:17.079 --> 00:37:24.440
That's amazing. But yeah, so
we had we go to the we

409
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:29.960
they now we're getting to the like
we're talking about the essay writing and doesn't

410
00:37:29.960 --> 00:37:34.920
want to write her essay, so
she hires this other classmate named Marvin,

411
00:37:35.320 --> 00:37:39.119
I mean kind of hires him.
Like Marvin's like, oh, hennah,

412
00:37:39.519 --> 00:37:44.719
like what's going on? And she's
like, you're super smart, I need

413
00:37:44.719 --> 00:37:49.000
you to write an essay and he
immediately Marvin's like, quid pro quote,

414
00:37:49.039 --> 00:37:51.199
what do I get? And and
it's like, what do you want?

415
00:37:51.400 --> 00:37:54.440
He's like a date, she says. She's basically like nice, try.

416
00:37:54.559 --> 00:37:59.079
I'm with Kenny. I haven't dumbed
him yet, like I'm going to do

417
00:37:59.320 --> 00:38:05.519
tomorrow and he's dumped him off over
nothing. Yeah, I mean, so

418
00:38:05.679 --> 00:38:13.360
like Kenny kind I am gonna say
poor Kenny, like for real, I

419
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:15.320
called I know, I called him
a weenie not even ten minutes ago,

420
00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:23.400
but I know my previous statements like
he doesn't seem like a bad guy.

421
00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:27.280
He just seems like somebody I would
just not want to hang out with.

422
00:38:27.760 --> 00:38:32.639
Like he gets shot for her,
yes, Like, but at this point

423
00:38:32.760 --> 00:38:40.800
I'm just like but like, you
know, like also, well we'll get

424
00:38:40.840 --> 00:38:45.320
there. But like so he's like, what about tickets to the sold out

425
00:38:45.360 --> 00:38:49.400
Billie Eilish show? So, and
she's like, like, how am I

426
00:38:49.559 --> 00:38:54.320
supposed to get tickets been sold out? He's like exactly. Frank's just like

427
00:38:54.400 --> 00:39:02.400
what this dialogue it is so off
kilter. It feels like it was translated

428
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:07.079
from a different language, translated into
a different language, and then translated back

429
00:39:07.119 --> 00:39:12.639
to English. I love it.
It's so good. She's like, okay,

430
00:39:12.679 --> 00:39:20.280
whatever, And Marvin, Daddy Marvin
is just like, do I see

431
00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:23.320
these tickets will turning in an essay
that's not mine or that I've turned in

432
00:39:23.400 --> 00:39:32.760
earlier. Yeah. Also, so
miss Kenny is having problem with story outlines.

433
00:39:35.599 --> 00:39:38.920
So Miss Dennison's like, oh,
Sophia, will you tutor Kenny on

434
00:39:39.000 --> 00:39:45.159
this? And Sophia's like yeah,
sure whatever. And he's just like,

435
00:39:45.239 --> 00:39:51.039
oh, hey, Sophia, you
know maybe we could like discuss this over

436
00:39:51.159 --> 00:40:00.360
pizza. And she's like yeah,
sure, whatever, Sophia do not have

437
00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:02.800
time for Kenny, and I'm all
for her not having time for Kenny.

438
00:40:02.920 --> 00:40:07.119
This movie, though, loves a
tracking shot, and we go from the

439
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:13.199
two of them just down the hallway
up some like up a half lay of

440
00:40:13.239 --> 00:40:16.199
stairs to me and Nicole, who
are just kind of standing there. And

441
00:40:16.199 --> 00:40:19.719
what's so funny is they're like,
oh my god, we have to tell

442
00:40:19.760 --> 00:40:22.639
Hannah. She's gonna be so mad. They literally say that, and it's

443
00:40:22.719 --> 00:40:27.480
just like bad over what It's not
like he's like Savilia, well igo on

444
00:40:27.559 --> 00:40:30.360
a day, he's like, please
help me not fail English? Yeah,

445
00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:40.039
pizza me fail, me fail English? That's unpossible. So they tell they

446
00:40:40.079 --> 00:40:45.880
tell this Anna. Anna goes from
Sierra to one hundred. Immediately she's like

447
00:40:45.920 --> 00:40:49.559
it's over, Kenny, You're done, And the camera's just like I'm a

448
00:40:49.599 --> 00:40:54.960
friendly ghosts hanging around you. I
mean, it's not bad cinematography, but

449
00:40:55.000 --> 00:40:58.880
I'm like, this needs to be
a dragon shot because I fear those are

450
00:40:58.960 --> 00:41:06.360
kind of hard. So that scenes
done with Kenny and Anna are broken up

451
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:14.480
with the principal, who was also
off kilter dialoguing pretty hard and he's just

452
00:41:14.599 --> 00:41:16.199
like, I know you have a
lot, Like you know, I won't

453
00:41:16.199 --> 00:41:20.239
get this principal credit for being like, teachers have a lot of work,

454
00:41:20.679 --> 00:41:25.119
and I'm not going to volunteer in
my teacher without offering about talking to her

455
00:41:25.119 --> 00:41:31.880
about it. He's like, they
need us somebody to read the debutante ball

456
00:41:32.159 --> 00:41:37.199
essays, and Miss Dennison is just
like, oh, I have a little

457
00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:43.480
arp, but sure, it's so
weird that they wouldn't set this up beforehand,

458
00:41:44.239 --> 00:41:50.639
that they're farming it out to whomever. Yeah. My one of my

459
00:41:50.719 --> 00:41:54.239
other favorite things is just like,
you're really telling me because being an English

460
00:41:54.280 --> 00:42:00.280
teacher is hard because you have to
read like thirty to forty essays about the

461
00:42:00.320 --> 00:42:07.039
same goddamn thing without your mind like
bleeding out of your ears. Yeah.

462
00:42:07.079 --> 00:42:15.079
So she agrees to read these debutante
essays and she's just like, hmm,

463
00:42:15.760 --> 00:42:22.079
I totally remember this one student's essay
from however many months ago. It's definitely

464
00:42:22.079 --> 00:42:27.360
the same one, and I haven't
saved on my computer. I know.

465
00:42:27.480 --> 00:42:31.199
She immediately pulls it up and she's
like, this sounds like Marvin's work,

466
00:42:31.480 --> 00:42:36.280
and I'm like, okay, you're
not turned it in dot com. You

467
00:42:36.360 --> 00:42:43.800
don't necessarily know, like off the
dome that it's Marvin's work. I Like.

468
00:42:44.119 --> 00:42:47.199
One of my favorite things about this
is I'm sure she was like,

469
00:42:47.280 --> 00:42:51.119
boy, I can't wait to wait
to fuck over. Oh she did it

470
00:42:51.280 --> 00:42:57.199
for me. I mean. This
is the other part is that Anna completely

471
00:42:57.320 --> 00:43:04.239
teed her up, like she's like, I'm gonna knock this. I'm gonna

472
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:07.840
knock this sabotage out of the park. Then she gets out and like she's

473
00:43:07.960 --> 00:43:10.559
like drops the weights off her bat
and then a t ball in front of

474
00:43:10.599 --> 00:43:17.960
her like Okay, She's like,
oh cool, thanks Annah, I guess

475
00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:22.920
I mean. And the funny part
is Anna has the audacity to act like

476
00:43:22.000 --> 00:43:28.840
this is the thing happening to her, not that she cheated and got caught.

477
00:43:29.840 --> 00:43:34.320
Yeah, and she's like, I
thought I could just pay my way

478
00:43:34.360 --> 00:43:37.039
through things. That's how you guys
taught me. And they're like, yeah,

479
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:42.400
if she yields it her parents,
how do you think I've learned that

480
00:43:42.639 --> 00:43:51.320
money solves everything? Yeah, mom, dad. So she goes up to

481
00:43:52.039 --> 00:43:55.159
the she goes up to her room
because her parents are like, we're gonna

482
00:43:55.199 --> 00:44:00.440
go out have dinner by ourselves again, and you can just right your essay

483
00:44:00.480 --> 00:44:02.880
in your room plenty, Like write
your dumb essay, isn't it dude.

484
00:44:04.639 --> 00:44:12.000
Yeah, well they the like our
debutante representative shows up and she's just like,

485
00:44:12.159 --> 00:44:14.599
look, your daughter is too blonde
a wife for us to kick her

486
00:44:14.639 --> 00:44:17.519
out. We're going to keep her. Well, it's like nepotism for sure.

487
00:44:17.960 --> 00:44:22.199
She's like we've been friends so long, and his's mom and and his

488
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:30.719
mom's like we have thank you.
Yes, So instead of writing her essay,

489
00:44:30.840 --> 00:44:38.119
she still calls me to steal her
essay, and again we get like

490
00:44:39.079 --> 00:44:43.920
a deal. You know, Me
as like what are you going to give

491
00:44:44.000 --> 00:44:47.760
me? And Anna is like just
give me your essay. You're not gonna

492
00:44:47.760 --> 00:44:53.199
win. And Me is like,
I want your jacket and Anna says it's

493
00:44:53.239 --> 00:44:57.760
two thousand dollars and Me is like, yeah, I know, that's why

494
00:44:57.800 --> 00:45:02.400
I want it. He is a
shark. The funny part is Me is

495
00:45:02.480 --> 00:45:06.920
like, you're the ding dog and
then wants to trade this jacket for my

496
00:45:07.000 --> 00:45:12.639
dumb essay about world peace, which
again Bean is not wrong. Nanna's like

497
00:45:13.079 --> 00:45:17.559
I have to hand it in now, and it's just like Hearing is bringing

498
00:45:17.559 --> 00:45:22.800
that jack and tomorrow idiot. Yeah, and so when they I mean,

499
00:45:23.000 --> 00:45:30.960
this will be me as unraveling though. Yeah. Well, so Anna shows

500
00:45:30.039 --> 00:45:39.719
up wearing the jacket and like it's
I don't know, I don't I'm obviously

501
00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:44.360
not a fashion plate, but I
was like, this doesn't look like a

502
00:45:44.400 --> 00:45:52.960
good jacket. It's just like it's
very big and bulky. And so Mia

503
00:45:52.159 --> 00:46:05.079
takes the jacket from Anna and like
we didn't see Anna and class and she

504
00:46:05.599 --> 00:46:07.679
like we hear everybody, like we
go to a slow motion show, like

505
00:46:07.679 --> 00:46:12.360
everyone's like, oh my god,
Mia has been pushed off of a balcony.

506
00:46:13.559 --> 00:46:21.800
Anna immediately blames Sophia, and so
far we have had no proof,

507
00:46:22.960 --> 00:46:29.239
like this is an idea that she's
just kind of floating, right, No,

508
00:46:29.480 --> 00:46:37.079
there has been no proof that Sophio
wants to win, you know which

509
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:45.400
m call it any Like, obviously
she entered the Debutante ball competition, so

510
00:46:45.639 --> 00:46:50.280
presumably she wants to win, but
there's no proof that she will like win

511
00:46:50.400 --> 00:46:53.199
by any means or is out to
get Anna for any reason. Like the

512
00:46:53.280 --> 00:46:58.920
other part is it seems like Anna's
chances are not that great. She's unlikable.

513
00:46:59.679 --> 00:47:02.079
She's does a bunch of off putting
stuff in front of the judges,

514
00:47:02.960 --> 00:47:07.760
like buying a bunch of toys for
children that you know, no one asked

515
00:47:07.760 --> 00:47:14.159
her to and then it's like here, kids take these toys, and so

516
00:47:15.719 --> 00:47:19.920
you know, this kind of comes
out, This is created out of whole

517
00:47:19.960 --> 00:47:27.880
cloth for Anna to start talking about, Like when Anna's locker is the face

518
00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:30.559
she's yelling at me about it,
and me is like, I don't care,

519
00:47:30.800 --> 00:47:35.519
it could have been anyone. You're
mean, and She's like it was

520
00:47:35.559 --> 00:47:38.960
so fiah and Mea is like,
there is literally no reason for you to

521
00:47:39.000 --> 00:47:43.719
think that. Nana's like, why
aren't you on my side? Do you

522
00:47:43.760 --> 00:47:50.880
remember? Do you remember that up
Happy Deaf Day where like Tree and her

523
00:47:50.960 --> 00:47:55.199
paramore whose name I forget, were
coming up a list of possible suspects,

524
00:47:57.000 --> 00:48:02.280
Like she's listing like a dozen different
people. That is basically Anna like like

525
00:48:02.440 --> 00:48:07.719
it could have been anyone. A
lot of people think you're the B word,

526
00:48:08.079 --> 00:48:13.559
And have we gotten to the point
where they somebody spray painted drop out

527
00:48:14.360 --> 00:48:19.760
like on her garage? First Yeah, okay, I mean that's that's barely

528
00:48:19.800 --> 00:48:22.280
a scene. The parents are just
like whatever, we're gonna leave you go

529
00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:28.159
like jet skiing or whatever. I
guess I met water skiing, but or

530
00:48:28.239 --> 00:48:37.639
like whatever, I really forget about
actual jet skis. My brain is like

531
00:48:37.679 --> 00:48:42.599
that's a different things, like no, it's called the jet ski You're like,

532
00:48:42.719 --> 00:48:47.599
or is it water skiing? Panic? Panic, start yoshing. But

533
00:48:50.079 --> 00:48:52.519
so, yeah, I want to
talk about that scene where she buys all

534
00:48:52.559 --> 00:48:59.840
the toys. So the the the
debutantes are supposed to mentor and talk to

535
00:49:00.039 --> 00:49:04.599
little girls. So I guess who
want to be debutants themselves? Oh no,

536
00:49:04.679 --> 00:49:07.599
I guess are there? Uh?
They call them less fortunate, but

537
00:49:07.639 --> 00:49:14.000
they never actually define why they are
less fortunate, Not that I need to

538
00:49:14.039 --> 00:49:17.920
know, like a backstory, but
it's just sort of strange in that,

539
00:49:20.039 --> 00:49:23.039
you know, Anna's like, shouldn't
these kids have everything? And I'm like,

540
00:49:23.159 --> 00:49:27.800
I really, I don't have any
context for why these children are here

541
00:49:27.960 --> 00:49:32.000
or why this event is happening at
all. Yeah, So Sophia like jumps

542
00:49:32.000 --> 00:49:35.800
into this. She's like talking to
the kids. She's having a good time.

543
00:49:35.880 --> 00:49:38.119
All the other debutantes are having a
good time. Anna is grumpily on

544
00:49:38.159 --> 00:49:44.079
her phone and she calls brooding.
She calls a toy store, says like

545
00:49:44.199 --> 00:49:46.079
put this on my daddy's account,
Like why does your dad have an account

546
00:49:46.119 --> 00:49:54.239
at the toy store? That is
strange her just call it so we'll see

547
00:49:54.280 --> 00:50:01.320
us a couple instances where Anna is
interacting with grown men very confidently, throwing

548
00:50:01.360 --> 00:50:08.039
around her dad's name and when the
because later she'll go to a lawyer to

549
00:50:08.159 --> 00:50:15.239
tell the lawyer that is he a
lawyer or a private detective? I think

550
00:50:15.239 --> 00:50:19.760
he's a private eye. Okay,
he'll go. She'll go to this private

551
00:50:19.800 --> 00:50:25.119
eye and tell him that, uh, another woman is attempting to murder her,

552
00:50:25.320 --> 00:50:31.119
and he takes her completely seriously.
And I feel like this is a

553
00:50:31.159 --> 00:50:37.559
really good case of a fake it
till you make it. Uh. So

554
00:50:37.880 --> 00:50:44.320
Anna walks in with supreme confidence,
says the wackiest shit, and everyone's like,

555
00:50:44.400 --> 00:50:47.920
yeah, okay, checks out.
So here's the thing about that Private

556
00:50:47.960 --> 00:50:52.960
eyes office. I want to talk
about that and get to the bonkers flash

557
00:50:52.000 --> 00:50:59.519
tire scene. And you know,
he is living like I've seen a fair

558
00:50:59.519 --> 00:51:02.239
amount of TV and movie private eyes, and I the thing is, I

559
00:51:02.239 --> 00:51:07.360
don't know how well a private eye
pays. I think that's his office,

560
00:51:07.400 --> 00:51:10.360
Frank, I don't think that's his
house. Well, That's what I'm getting

561
00:51:10.400 --> 00:51:15.239
at, is like I've never seen
a private detective live in an office that

562
00:51:15.360 --> 00:51:19.639
clean like, So I'm just like, he must be the most successful private

563
00:51:19.679 --> 00:51:24.119
eye in all of North Carolina.
Isn't it funny too though that she knows

564
00:51:24.159 --> 00:51:29.679
exactly which private eye to go to. Why would her dad have an affiliation

565
00:51:29.760 --> 00:51:34.960
with this man? I mean a
lawyer having affiliations with private eye especially is

566
00:51:35.159 --> 00:51:37.639
that I can understand, because like, if you have like an insurance case,

567
00:51:37.679 --> 00:51:45.440
you need somebody to like follow your
opposing party. But if you're representing

568
00:51:45.440 --> 00:51:47.039
an insurance company, you would need
to hire private eye to be like are

569
00:51:47.039 --> 00:51:54.159
they really disabled? Are you know, like injured, because like I was

570
00:51:54.800 --> 00:52:00.119
reading about, I was listening to
a ask Reddit post about like lawyers,

571
00:52:00.119 --> 00:52:02.840
like what's the case that you won
pretty easily? And they hired a private

572
00:52:02.880 --> 00:52:07.480
eye to look into this guy who
was saying he fell off his roof while

573
00:52:07.519 --> 00:52:12.280
he was working, and then they
showed him like taking off his neck brace

574
00:52:12.280 --> 00:52:17.719
and doing all these fun activities he
said he couldn't do. So I don't

575
00:52:17.760 --> 00:52:25.519
have that episode of the Office where
Dwight yells at Daryl's sister. Yeah,

576
00:52:28.079 --> 00:52:34.960
so still one of my favorite bits
of Dwight detectiving is when he tries to

577
00:52:35.000 --> 00:52:40.480
figure out if Oscar is faking being
sick and he's like, I found out

578
00:52:40.519 --> 00:52:45.559
something about Oscar today. He wasn't
really sick. Meanwhile, Oscar and his

579
00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:54.599
partner are kissing or something equally romantic. Now they're like holding hands and they're

580
00:52:54.639 --> 00:52:59.679
all sitting on the couch and like
Dwight sitting there like a child eating popcorn.

581
00:53:00.440 --> 00:53:05.039
Yeah there, I think, like
I was listening to like a commentary

582
00:53:05.079 --> 00:53:08.480
on it, and they're like,
like the explanation was that? Dway was

583
00:53:08.519 --> 00:53:10.599
later like what are you guys doing
it? Like, I'm gonna watch up.

584
00:53:10.639 --> 00:53:13.159
He's like, oh cool, can
I watch them? Like yeah,

585
00:53:13.159 --> 00:53:20.679
sure, whatever. But so Anna
brings in four hundred dollars worth of toys.

586
00:53:21.920 --> 00:53:24.639
These are big toys for little kids. Yeah, like there's a there

587
00:53:24.760 --> 00:53:29.559
is a little girl like standing next
to a Teddy Bear that's bigger than herself.

588
00:53:30.320 --> 00:53:37.119
Yeah. And then she leaves and
somebody has slashed her tires. Just

589
00:53:37.159 --> 00:53:42.719
happens to be driving by, and
Anna yelled, it's like plus this by

590
00:53:42.800 --> 00:53:47.320
Anna and Anna Yil's did you do
this? Just drives you know, it's

591
00:53:47.360 --> 00:53:52.239
even more crazy than that. So
feels like what happened? And then Anna

592
00:53:52.320 --> 00:53:57.320
yells like you don't know. He's
like all right, boy, I know,

593
00:53:57.639 --> 00:54:00.360
and it's like Anna read the root. She might have been able to

594
00:54:00.400 --> 00:54:06.840
help you. And this is the
other crazy thing is Anna is so rich,

595
00:54:07.440 --> 00:54:09.159
why wouldn't she like, why wouldn't
she be like like, hey,

596
00:54:09.239 --> 00:54:12.480
dad, I need somebody to come
by and pick up my car. My

597
00:54:12.519 --> 00:54:15.400
tires got slash. I'm gonna get
an uber home and stays She's like I

598
00:54:15.440 --> 00:54:17.880
had to wait for the tow truck. And I'm like why I have to

599
00:54:17.880 --> 00:54:22.119
wait for the tow truck so I
don't have us the money spent on ubers,

600
00:54:22.159 --> 00:54:27.199
Like why didn't you, like,
you know, just leave, I

601
00:54:27.280 --> 00:54:31.800
mean I kind of the dynamic between
Anna and her family is very confusing.

602
00:54:32.199 --> 00:54:36.599
Anna is that level of rich where
if she just like ran out of gash,

603
00:54:36.639 --> 00:54:37.480
she'd just leave the car behind me, like, well, I'm trying

604
00:54:37.519 --> 00:54:45.400
to go buy a new one.
Well, yeah, you know. So,

605
00:54:45.400 --> 00:54:51.719
so she fully thinks this is Sophia. Yeah, and she's willing to

606
00:54:51.800 --> 00:54:58.480
yell at at anybody present. Yeah. So she uh texts Sophia, and

607
00:55:00.599 --> 00:55:05.679
Sophia like like like oh, she's
talking to her dad, and her dad's

608
00:55:05.719 --> 00:55:07.760
like, hey, being supported,
being supportive, and she's like, oh,

609
00:55:07.760 --> 00:55:09.559
it looks like they need me for
another Q and A. I have

610
00:55:09.599 --> 00:55:13.719
to go back, and he's just
like, oh, take the car,

611
00:55:13.960 --> 00:55:16.199
because Sofia is willing to take the
bush. And this is what I did

612
00:55:16.360 --> 00:55:20.760
enjoy, where they were actually discussing
like the dynamics of this car. So,

613
00:55:20.920 --> 00:55:22.880
but I've had the car all day, don't you need it? He's

614
00:55:22.920 --> 00:55:24.960
like, no, I'm good.
Yeah. That felt like a very real

615
00:55:25.039 --> 00:55:31.400
conversation, bitter bit unnecessary, but
sometimes conversations in life are unnecessary. Then

616
00:55:32.639 --> 00:55:36.960
I just think that's a sign of
somewhat good writing, is when you just

617
00:55:37.400 --> 00:55:43.039
show the minor points in a life
of yeah, you know. So,

618
00:55:43.039 --> 00:55:47.239
Sofia goes back. Anna has set
up like a villain entrance, like or

619
00:55:47.440 --> 00:55:52.960
like her own villain meeting. So
Sophia comes back, Anna's sitting behind this

620
00:55:53.079 --> 00:55:58.679
giant table, just like we need
to discuss things. Sofia would then like

621
00:56:00.000 --> 00:56:09.159
even stranger than that, Anna has
made like pretended that she was the judges

622
00:56:09.440 --> 00:56:19.320
wanting to have a conversation with Sophia. I presumably gave Sophia her address and

623
00:56:19.480 --> 00:56:22.840
had Sophia travel to her house.
Well I don't think that's her house.

624
00:56:22.880 --> 00:56:28.519
I think it's a debutante place because
like so Anna leaves it later that's where

625
00:56:28.559 --> 00:56:34.159
she Neil gets run over. How
does she Oh, why is she?

626
00:56:34.599 --> 00:56:37.559
Okay? This is so confusing?
How did she get there in the first

627
00:56:37.559 --> 00:56:45.559
place. I'm as soon as she
took another uber or something, they're like,

628
00:56:45.119 --> 00:56:47.960
where are you? Where have you
been all day? She's like,

629
00:56:49.599 --> 00:56:52.440
my tires got slashed. Okay,
I gotta go. I gotta scheme cooking.

630
00:56:53.000 --> 00:56:57.159
I have a scheme in the works. And they're like, we have

631
00:56:57.239 --> 00:57:04.920
to go get massages done by Octopi
and so then, because I was wondering,

632
00:57:04.960 --> 00:57:07.480
I was like, why this is
the problem with having too many palacial

633
00:57:07.519 --> 00:57:15.480
homes in a movie. Is I
need something to demarcate what is the debutane

634
00:57:15.480 --> 00:57:22.239
house and what is their palacial home? Because I just assumed she was wandering

635
00:57:22.280 --> 00:57:28.519
around in front of her own house. No, she almost got run down

636
00:57:28.559 --> 00:57:34.119
by a car, kind of like
the car is so far away from her

637
00:57:34.239 --> 00:57:37.639
and she throws herself in a ditch. And it's so funny because she's seen

638
00:57:37.880 --> 00:57:43.880
Anna's car. She knows what Anna's
car looks like, but then decides that

639
00:57:44.039 --> 00:57:47.159
this car is also Anna. And
everyone's like, bro, you got a

640
00:57:47.320 --> 00:57:52.559
chill and she's like, Nana.
It's so what's even more confusing in this

641
00:57:52.639 --> 00:57:58.599
scene, It's like Sophia is being
Sophia is doing what you should do if

642
00:57:58.639 --> 00:58:00.880
you are, like to talk to
the police or something where she's just giving

643
00:58:00.920 --> 00:58:06.679
a little information as she needs to
answer the question. And at the end,

644
00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:10.119
like and SOA's like, how much
hurdling Towards the end of this movie?

645
00:58:10.679 --> 00:58:15.440
Somehow there's still so much movie left. There's still little plot left,

646
00:58:15.960 --> 00:58:20.280
but there's still a fair amount of
movie left. Well, I mean,

647
00:58:20.320 --> 00:58:25.679
because it goes like this, right
like animes a now landish declaration. Everyone

648
00:58:25.800 --> 00:58:32.119
tells her that's kind of nuts.
Anna doubles down rints and repeat until we

649
00:58:32.239 --> 00:58:37.119
get to the d because so she
goes to the Private Eyes office. He

650
00:58:37.239 --> 00:58:42.599
tells her, you have a lot
of enemies for a teenager. She parked

651
00:58:42.639 --> 00:58:49.320
in the wrong place and there's this
random guy who is trying to tell her

652
00:58:49.519 --> 00:58:52.000
you got toad because you parked in
a space you shouldn't have. But she

653
00:58:52.199 --> 00:58:59.320
runs this man with so little self
awareness. Yes, she runs away from

654
00:58:59.400 --> 00:59:01.960
him and he he's like, hey, I'm just trying to let you know

655
00:59:02.039 --> 00:59:09.159
your car got todd And it is
creepy because he just he's like, I'll

656
00:59:09.199 --> 00:59:12.960
stay with you. Do you want
to ride? And she's like no,

657
00:59:12.960 --> 00:59:17.400
no, no, and he I
mean, she doesn't say no, she

658
00:59:17.519 --> 00:59:22.000
accepts him staying there with her.
Well, she doesn't like she says no

659
00:59:22.119 --> 00:59:27.199
to the ride, but then doesn't
really respond to the him staying there.

660
00:59:27.280 --> 00:59:30.159
So I, as the viewer,
I am like, is this guy bad

661
00:59:30.199 --> 00:59:37.239
news? I don't know. So
then well he chases her down three flights

662
00:59:37.239 --> 00:59:43.679
of stairs in a parking garage.
I'm like, dude, und if a

663
00:59:43.679 --> 00:59:45.400
woman ran away from me, I
just feel bad for of the day.

664
00:59:45.519 --> 00:59:52.679
I would not pursue her. Yeah, it's like that, what do you

665
00:59:52.840 --> 00:59:58.199
call it? Yes, there is, like I thought she heard the trade

666
00:59:58.960 --> 01:00:12.719
through her feet. Like, so
then she like continues this sort of reign

667
01:00:12.960 --> 01:00:21.840
of just making everyone oh sorry,
I forgot. She confronts Mia in the

668
01:00:21.920 --> 01:00:28.599
hospital and it says, you have
to call the police. So she ends

669
01:00:28.679 --> 01:00:32.920
up in the hospital with a little
scrape after the supposed attempted running down with

670
01:00:32.960 --> 01:00:39.239
the car. She tells Mia,
you need to call the police and tell

671
01:00:39.320 --> 01:00:45.119
them that Sophia is the one who
pushed you, and Mia responds, I

672
01:00:45.239 --> 01:00:49.800
don't know that she did. I
kind of think it was you. And

673
01:00:51.719 --> 01:00:59.840
Anna's like, no way and storms
out and then goes back to school and

674
01:01:00.000 --> 01:01:05.639
and the private eye tells Anna Oh
that all of the rumors being spread about

675
01:01:05.639 --> 01:01:08.679
you online they're coming from the hospital
WiFi. That's never a resolved. We

676
01:01:08.719 --> 01:01:13.800
don't know if miss Dennison went and
hung out at the hospital or me it

677
01:01:13.920 --> 01:01:16.079
was just sick of Anna being a
brat and it was her. We don't

678
01:01:16.119 --> 01:01:22.320
know. So then this movie is
the complete destruction of two young women.

679
01:01:22.960 --> 01:01:30.559
It really is, because then Miss
Dennison shows up at Sophia's house and it's

680
01:01:30.599 --> 01:01:32.280
like, I brought you a dress. It's my dress from when I didn't

681
01:01:32.320 --> 01:01:37.679
win, and I got some alterations
made, and Sophia's dad's like, hey,

682
01:01:37.719 --> 01:01:40.559
maybe pump the brakes. This is
a lot, you know, like

683
01:01:42.000 --> 01:01:45.559
Sophia's kind of just getting back to
herself after everything that happened with her mom,

684
01:01:45.280 --> 01:01:50.079
and Miss Dennison's like, yeah,
get out of my way. I

685
01:01:50.119 --> 01:01:55.559
don't care. And so then it's
finally the Debutant Fall, the much Valleyhood,

686
01:01:57.079 --> 01:02:00.800
much discussed Debutant Fall. There are
minutes left in this movie. Yes,

687
01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:08.679
the dads are going to be escorting
the debutantes. Uh, Sophia's dad

688
01:02:08.800 --> 01:02:14.159
is there, Anna's dad is there, MEA's dad is not there because me

689
01:02:14.360 --> 01:02:20.400
is still in the hostel, so
Miss Dennison is there. We get a

690
01:02:20.679 --> 01:02:27.760
getting ready compilation where we do not
see Miss Dennison's face, but is obviously

691
01:02:27.840 --> 01:02:37.719
her with a gun because everybody is
wearing tacky white elbow length gun guns gloves.

692
01:02:37.320 --> 01:02:45.639
And the scene ends montage ads with
someone reaching into a satin lined box

693
01:02:45.880 --> 01:02:50.039
with a little pistol in it,
which is very dramatic and very nutty,

694
01:02:50.119 --> 01:02:53.519
and I appreciate that we don't get
a lot of lifetime antagonists with guns.

695
01:02:54.119 --> 01:03:01.440
No, it's they're usually they're bludgeoners. They're Uh, what's that thing called?

696
01:03:02.760 --> 01:03:08.679
Is it defenestration when someone falls out
of a window. I don't think

697
01:03:08.719 --> 01:03:17.440
it's defenestration, but googling it the
action of throwing someone out of a window,

698
01:03:17.599 --> 01:03:23.280
boom, suck it. It's a
phrase that hargins back to sixteen eighteen.

699
01:03:24.559 --> 01:03:29.559
So, uh, we have our
finger on the polls of sixteen eighteen.

700
01:03:30.119 --> 01:03:32.679
Oh. It also is the action
of dismissing someone from a position of

701
01:03:32.719 --> 01:03:38.039
power or authority, which is where
it was first used in Prague. The

702
01:03:38.079 --> 01:03:44.119
first governmental defenestration occurred in fourteen nineteen, the second and fourteen eighty three,

703
01:03:44.199 --> 01:03:49.760
and the third and sixteen eighteen,
I guess like overthrowing, throwing someone out

704
01:03:49.800 --> 01:03:58.000
of a window, whatever. So
immediately Miss Tennison is called out by an

705
01:03:58.119 --> 01:04:02.199
unfore woman we have not seen before
or she is apparently the EMC of the

706
01:04:02.280 --> 01:04:09.800
debutant ball as well as the head
of it, and she is really ramping

707
01:04:09.880 --> 01:04:15.440
up the uh suspense by saying,
for the first time ever, the judges

708
01:04:15.639 --> 01:04:20.280
are gridlocked on who is gonna win, and the only way they can decide

709
01:04:20.719 --> 01:04:26.960
is seeing daughters walk with fathers down
a runway. And she also has to

710
01:04:27.000 --> 01:04:32.199
tell uh, Sophia's dad, Hey, your daughter's suspicious as fuck. We

711
01:04:32.280 --> 01:04:41.079
figure she sus because someone paid the
pageant photographer, which really makes you wonder,

712
01:04:41.519 --> 01:04:45.039
like, how is the pageant being
run if the photographer's like, yeah,

713
01:04:45.119 --> 01:04:49.559
yeah, I also do the web
authoring slide me a little bit extra,

714
01:04:49.719 --> 01:04:56.400
like the judges that easily sweethe we
saw a picture on the website.

715
01:04:56.400 --> 01:04:58.239
I don't know, we had no
choice. It had to be her,

716
01:04:58.440 --> 01:05:01.360
had to be Sophia, and didn't
even win it for her. And then

717
01:05:01.559 --> 01:05:09.599
also somehow they got a hold of
Sophia's college application that was written by Miss

718
01:05:09.599 --> 01:05:15.199
Dennison, where it mentions how she
will pay for college, which is strange.

719
01:05:15.920 --> 01:05:20.559
So immediately Sophia's Dead's like, excuse
me, Miss Denison, this is

720
01:05:20.800 --> 01:05:25.119
like real weird. Why did you
do this? And Miss Dennison's like,

721
01:05:25.199 --> 01:05:29.000
I'm so busy. She literally says, I'm too busy for this, walks

722
01:05:29.000 --> 01:05:35.159
it into a foyer that's empty,
bludgeons him of heavy objects. Yes,

723
01:05:35.360 --> 01:05:40.039
so yeuse. Later we will see
another heavy object obtained in this foyer,

724
01:05:40.239 --> 01:05:45.159
so she immediately takes Anna hostage.
We hear some ad rs. Anna says,

725
01:05:45.199 --> 01:05:50.679
my dress because part of the tool
has gotten ripped off and stuck in

726
01:05:50.719 --> 01:05:57.480
the door. Also, we get
the reveal that Kenny was the one who

727
01:05:57.760 --> 01:06:03.159
in the Ultimate Active betrayal called in
Anna's hard to get towed. After a

728
01:06:03.199 --> 01:06:11.639
little bit of lights talking yes and
this is not super important, Kenny will

729
01:06:11.679 --> 01:06:15.679
be shot shortly after this. Also, Anna Park's like it's just going back

730
01:06:15.679 --> 01:06:19.320
to the I know we're like talking
about versus that moment. Anna Park's in

731
01:06:19.400 --> 01:06:25.119
front of the toeway zone sign and
the camera's like do you see it?

732
01:06:25.440 --> 01:06:29.159
Do you see it? So like
really, yeah, Kenny's being a jerk,

733
01:06:29.280 --> 01:06:34.719
but this one's on Anna. Yeah
anyway, so yeah, so Mss

734
01:06:34.719 --> 01:06:41.239
Dennison is talking about how because Anna's
mom paid off the judges. So the

735
01:06:41.280 --> 01:06:45.960
Dennison women had won every year,
every generation up until Miss Dennison, and

736
01:06:46.039 --> 01:06:51.280
it's like I paid them off,
like your mother paid them off, and

737
01:06:51.639 --> 01:06:58.119
like that dad brought the judges to
his private country club. Apparently they weren't

738
01:06:58.159 --> 01:07:00.599
that hard to win over. I
don't know what I mean. The judges

739
01:07:00.639 --> 01:07:03.920
this year see a picture on a
website and they're like, what that's interest

740
01:07:04.000 --> 01:07:13.639
it? So like the pageant is
judged by ding dongs. We're now having

741
01:07:13.760 --> 01:07:16.920
zoom issues, so we're just gonna
wrap up this movie. Kenny comes out

742
01:07:16.960 --> 01:07:25.199
as I'm here to save you.
Mealy gets shot up, like it's like,

743
01:07:25.239 --> 01:07:30.119
what, you guys had a fight. You shot Kenny and then you

744
01:07:30.239 --> 01:07:33.599
shot yourself from four feet away in
your gut. I don't know how that

745
01:07:33.639 --> 01:07:40.000
works. It doesn't matter. And
so Sophia goes to find her daughter,

746
01:07:40.239 --> 01:07:43.320
or goes to find her dad because
she's just like, why is my dad

747
01:07:43.360 --> 01:07:46.239
not here? She's like, my
dad's been knocked out and nobody decided to

748
01:07:46.280 --> 01:07:53.840
pick him up. Anna's mom,
I mean, it's Anna's mom did check

749
01:07:53.880 --> 01:07:57.480
in with him, he said,
I'm okay, and then Anna's Mom's like,

750
01:07:57.639 --> 01:08:01.920
okay, cool, I gotta go
find my daughter. Yeah, So

751
01:08:03.039 --> 01:08:10.920
Anna's mom and Anna fight off MS
Dennison. Like we then cut to like,

752
01:08:11.840 --> 01:08:15.000
you know, Anna, ye,
Kenny's dead. Turns out Kenny's not

753
01:08:15.119 --> 01:08:19.760
dead. Kenny's gonna make it.
Don't worry about Kenny. Yeah, And

754
01:08:20.239 --> 01:08:30.000
basically there's just like it's over,
and I really hope there's a sequel.

755
01:08:30.319 --> 01:08:32.960
Yes, and I just okay,
So I just want to just go over

756
01:08:33.000 --> 01:08:38.239
real quick before we close out how
fucked over both Anna and Sofia are.

757
01:08:39.319 --> 01:08:43.199
Sophia is out a lot of time
and money that she's spent on these dresses.

758
01:08:44.159 --> 01:08:46.399
She is not going to win that
scholarship. She now also has medical

759
01:08:46.399 --> 01:08:49.720
bills that she has to pay for
her father, who that has suffered a

760
01:08:49.880 --> 01:08:57.359
brain head injury for real concussion.
Yeah, so you know, hey,

761
01:08:57.399 --> 01:09:00.680
I hope we maybe we can sell
this giant house and like moved to a

762
01:09:00.720 --> 01:09:06.960
smaller place. Would sense the downsize. Anna found out that all of her

763
01:09:08.000 --> 01:09:15.880
friends hate her. Yes, she
sorry said that's true. Yeah. She

764
01:09:15.039 --> 01:09:19.079
found out that her her boyfriend got
shot. She didn't find that out,

765
01:09:19.159 --> 01:09:25.119
she saw it. Her boyfriend.
She somehow discovered that her boyfriend got shot,

766
01:09:26.079 --> 01:09:30.840
she was nearly killed and yeah,
so everybody, and she didn't also

767
01:09:30.880 --> 01:09:34.960
win Belle of the Ball. Nicole
won. Nicole seemed very nice because she

768
01:09:35.000 --> 01:09:40.960
was constantly defending Sophia and Anna being
like, Anna, you're acting like a

769
01:09:41.079 --> 01:09:46.720
nut. Sophia's really so Cyphia's really
nice. Nichole said that with her whole

770
01:09:46.720 --> 01:09:51.880
heart. So yeah, so good
for Nicole Bell the Ball. Watched this

771
01:09:53.000 --> 01:09:58.640
movie. It's so bonkers. It's
yeah, it's very fun. What are

772
01:09:58.720 --> 01:10:01.840
we doing? You can actually and
this into a like fun like I don't

773
01:10:01.880 --> 01:10:06.279
want to say drinking game, because
drinking games are, but like eat eat

774
01:10:06.279 --> 01:10:10.880
a piece of candy every time the
eighty R gets bad and you'll feel really

775
01:10:10.880 --> 01:10:13.079
good. My god, they'll throw
off Frank. It's the same as the

776
01:10:13.159 --> 01:10:17.439
drinking like, yeah, but for
eating M and m's to do with shops.

777
01:10:18.039 --> 01:10:23.079
Next week, we're doing a suzy
pick for Deadly December. It's a

778
01:10:23.079 --> 01:10:28.680
wonderful knife. Yeah, awesome.
This was the whole reason we started doing

779
01:10:28.680 --> 01:10:30.920
Deudley December. So it's like we
should do this movie. It's like,

780
01:10:30.000 --> 01:10:34.000
that's not we gonna fit into o
Disney December theme because we're going to do

781
01:10:34.199 --> 01:10:40.479
like live action princess movies, and
so we're just gonna do April, uh,

782
01:10:42.239 --> 01:10:48.359
the April Cinderella Month. I just
to force I am going to show

783
01:10:49.520 --> 01:11:01.039
or to Okay, someone photo shopped
Michael My into the It's a Wonderful Life

784
01:11:01.840 --> 01:11:16.319
DVD cover. Also, I want
to I'm really looking for a picture of

785
01:11:16.840 --> 01:11:26.039
Justin Long in all of the like
makeup, because it's so good. While

786
01:11:26.039 --> 01:11:30.479
you while you find those for me
to react to, I want to talk

787
01:11:30.479 --> 01:11:34.319
about how It's a Wonderful Life is
was not actually that popular when it first

788
01:11:34.319 --> 01:11:44.359
came out. Okay, wait,
now keep my yellow fresh ast. So

789
01:11:44.560 --> 01:11:46.479
when It's a Wonderful Life came out, it was a box office kind of

790
01:11:46.479 --> 01:11:51.960
flop and they're just like, okay, well whatever. But this is when

791
01:11:53.000 --> 01:11:56.880
TV started having, like you know, there were different channels and there was

792
01:11:56.920 --> 01:11:59.960
all this programming that needed to be
filled, and they're like, well,

793
01:12:00.000 --> 01:12:02.960
well we need a Christmas movie,
and we like, the licensing for It's

794
01:12:03.000 --> 01:12:06.720
Wonderful Life is actually very cheap because
nobody liked this movie. So they just

795
01:12:06.720 --> 01:12:12.600
started showing it a whole lot at
Christmas and people start watching it and being

796
01:12:12.680 --> 01:12:23.800
like, what is this I mean, this is a big theme and it's

797
01:12:23.840 --> 01:12:30.239
a wonderful knife. Okay, I'm
really into this. Yeah, it's a

798
01:12:30.279 --> 01:12:34.479
strange movie. I'm really glad we're
having a Justin Long renaissance. Oh what

799
01:12:35.239 --> 01:12:42.000
