00:00:02.919 --> 00:00:15.919
First time to first time to Welcome
to podcast joint host Hoho as he discusses

2
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:27.199
the rinting Netflix original series Black Mirror. Now Here he is for broadcasting from

3
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:32.159
the Cottage Studio Welcome to Black Mirror
Podcast and as always, I'm your host.

4
00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:35.520
So hi, y'all was doing.
I hope you've done good. I

5
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:41.719
really do, because today we are
on episode two of season six titled Locke

6
00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:46.079
Henry. Oh. Yeah. Now, this one I was a definite fan

7
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:50.039
of. I really was for for
a few different reasons. You know.

8
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:54.280
One, it was more of a
suspense thriller kind of a thing, and

9
00:00:54.359 --> 00:01:00.399
it had, you know, a
few different filming styles in the you know,

10
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:03.719
I mean, you had the regular
filming style that you know, we've

11
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:08.000
come to love and appreciate with Black
Mirror, and and we also had the

12
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:15.439
documentary film style, which which I
I do enjoy. I like a good

13
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:22.599
documentary. And then it slid into
a found footage type of a show.

14
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:26.319
And you know, I'm I'm a
fan of found footage things. I really

15
00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:30.799
am. I like found footage films
very much, so, you know,

16
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:36.959
because you know, it's one of
those things that you know, for an

17
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:42.719
indie film producer It's something that you
can do without spending a lot of money

18
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:48.319
on you know, gear, camera
equipment and whatnot. You know, I

19
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:53.920
mean you can do you know,
with with a you know, a handful

20
00:01:55.000 --> 00:02:01.560
of friends, a you know,
a a thousand to twelve hundred dollars worth

21
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:09.319
of gear, you know, prosthetics, lateax, you know, dy homemade,

22
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:15.840
you know, fake blood, a
great idea, a really good writer

23
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:21.840
and and an amazing filmographer. You
can do a really really good found footage

24
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:24.039
film. I mean, it doesn't
it's not going to break the bank,

25
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:28.479
and you can make quite a bit
of money, you know, especially just

26
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:34.039
you know doing you know, streaming
services or what have you, or you

27
00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:37.879
know, subscription based kind of thing
using Patreon or locals. I mean,

28
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:42.280
you can you can do a pretty
decent job, make some money on that,

29
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:44.560
and you don't have to spend a
whole heck a lot that That's one

30
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:46.840
thing I think that's really cool about
doing you know, found footage films.

31
00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:51.039
You know, it's it's really intriguing
to me. I like the aspect of

32
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.199
it. Maybe one day I'll do
my own. I don't know, I

33
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:57.039
have no idea, you know,
I mean, I do got some documentary

34
00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:00.479
stuff that I'm wanting to do and
have some idea. Idea is that a

35
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:04.159
buddy of mine and I've been working
on for doing a found footage type of

36
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:07.080
a thing. But whether it'll actually
ever see the light of day, who

37
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:13.039
knows. But that's one of the
reasons why I really did enjoy this film.

38
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:19.360
So this episode starts off with with
a couple, you know, a

39
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:25.960
you know, a guy by the
name of Davis in college and his a

40
00:03:25.960 --> 00:03:31.199
friend that's in his same class filmography. I guess her name is Pia,

41
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:39.319
and you know that they are going
on a road trip to you know that

42
00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:46.719
they're going to do a project for
their film school. Okay, that's what

43
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:51.120
they're doing. They're in college,
okay, And you know along the way

44
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:55.800
they stop off at Davis's mom's house
and we meet Janet for the first time,

45
00:03:57.800 --> 00:04:01.159
and you know you in the opening. Oh yeah, and by the

46
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:05.800
way, before I go any further, and I'm sorry it took me this

47
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.520
long to get here, but spoiler
alert, we are going to be talking

48
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:14.520
about the episode. We we really
are, man, spoiler alert. Y'all

49
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:21.079
know how this works. So,
you know, we meet Janet Davis's mom,

50
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:27.199
and you know that there's some things
kind of immediately that we find out

51
00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:33.759
and some things that give me pause. Not because it's it's more of a

52
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:40.079
suspense thriller type of an episode,
there are certain things that you expect out

53
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:44.439
of them, and you know,
a little bit less of a oh I

54
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:46.879
didn't see that coming, you know, because I mean, let's face it,

55
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:51.160
you know, whenever it comes to
the genre, you know, there's

56
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:56.639
certain things that we expect to happen, and we kind of we look at

57
00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:00.720
it, and when things don't quite
look right, it's a little more noticeable

58
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:04.560
because it's such a well known type
of a genre. Certain rules that just

59
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:09.800
play. And I'm not just talking
about the movie's scream, but there is.

60
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:14.720
I mean, there's a certain level
of expectation that comes along with it,

61
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:18.160
and this one was no different.
So although in a matter of speaking,

62
00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:25.000
there was a little bit fewer surprises
and it didn't take us as long

63
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:30.519
to figure out what was going on, there was still that oh, okay,

64
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:33.600
well, I knew something was up. I kind of had it figured

65
00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:38.480
out, but they took it in
a direction that I really wasn't expecting.

66
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:41.680
I don't know about you, but
you know, some of it was a

67
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:46.759
surprise. But others of it wasn't
so early off in that in that first

68
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:49.720
sequence where they're at the house and
you know, they we meet Janet Davis's

69
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:54.399
mom. You know, there's there's
a couple of things that we find out.

70
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:59.120
You know, we find out that, you know, Davis's dad is

71
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:01.639
no longer in the picture. He
was a police officer that that died.

72
00:06:05.959 --> 00:06:11.360
We don't know how just yet,
but we know that he died. And

73
00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:16.800
there was something that I noticed pretty
early off that gave me reason for pause,

74
00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:24.040
like, oh, that's not right, okay. Whenever we go to

75
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:30.879
the shelf that has all of those
recorded VHS tapes that just has the Burger

76
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:35.279
Ak word on it, you know, the the name of the miniseries that

77
00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:41.600
that all of them were, and
there was like fifteen or so of these

78
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:46.639
VHS cassette tapes, and I'm like, oh, there's something off about that.

79
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:55.839
There's a story behind those or you
know better yet, those cassette tapes,

80
00:06:55.920 --> 00:07:00.560
those VHS tapes has a story to
tell. Because I don't know about

81
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:06.120
you, but you know, when
you're talking cassette, you know VHS cassette

82
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:10.720
tapes that you are recording yourself,
you know, you never just put the

83
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:14.879
series name on it, and that's
it, especially whenever you're talking so many

84
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:18.120
stinking ones that just say the same
thing, Burger Act. There was something

85
00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:20.759
wrong there, and I picked up
on in the media. I know about

86
00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:24.879
you, but I picked up on
that immedially. I'm like, there's something

87
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:28.759
off about that, you know,
because you're going to have more information on

88
00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:31.600
there, so you know what is
on the tape. You know you're going

89
00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:35.000
to have episode numbers, you're going
to have season numbers. There's just there's

90
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:42.000
things in there that you're going to
put You're not just going to put the

91
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:45.680
name of the series and leave it
at that. Especial whenever you have fifteen

92
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:51.920
VHS tapes or so I'm guessing on
the amount that I'll say the same thing.

93
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:57.480
There's something going on there, you
know. I picked up on that

94
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:03.240
right immediately, you know. And
of course we learn whenever they are outside

95
00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:07.439
the door at Davis's mom house,
you know it's it's there's there's that.

96
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:11.879
Oh okay, so they're doing a
documentary type of a thing. Okay,

97
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:15.240
And I got excited about that again
because I like I like documentaries. I

98
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:18.519
like watching documentaries learning about things.
You know, I very much of a

99
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:24.360
fan of the genre. I like
learning things. Documentaries to me are fascinating,

100
00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:28.079
you know, it really is.
It's fascinating. I'm like, oh

101
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:30.720
cool, okay, so I like
where this is going. I'm liking this.

102
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:37.960
And then that night when they're up
in the room and pe sees and

103
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:46.279
notices that camera, I'm like,
oh, okay, now we're talking found

104
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:50.200
footage type of a thing. All
right, let's see if they actually play

105
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:54.960
into this. Let's see what see
what happens. And then you know,

106
00:08:54.080 --> 00:09:00.840
he uh. I don't remember if
it was that day, you know,

107
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:03.879
that that first day, or if
it was the second day that they were

108
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:11.120
there, But Davis takes Pia to
the lock and it's gorgeous out there.

109
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:13.360
I mean, it really is,
you know. I mean, it's it's

110
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:18.840
the thing that landscape pictures come from, you know. And they talk about

111
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:22.240
that, you know, and one
of the other things that they talk about,

112
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:24.039
at least Pia talks about. It's
like, dude, this area is

113
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:30.399
gorgeous. This area is beautiful,
you know, But why is there no

114
00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:37.879
tourism? Why is there nothing going
on? You know? And it's like

115
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.360
you can tell by Davis's reaction to
this, that there's a story behind this,

116
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.000
and he is intimately aware of it. And you can just tell this

117
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:52.879
by his reaction to it. You
know, it's just he's you can tell

118
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:58.720
that he's distraught about it, that
it affected him in his life personally.

119
00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:03.440
You can tell this. It's like, okay, okay. And then,

120
00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:07.320
and I'm pretty sure this was day
two, you know, Davis takes Pia

121
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:11.399
over to the only bar this left
in town, I guess, you know,

122
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:18.639
there were originally three and now down
to just one. And we come

123
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:31.679
to find out why the dark secret
behind this nice little town that should be

124
00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:37.799
by all intents and purposes, just
like a hot spot for tourism. And

125
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:46.840
it's not what's the dirty little secret? Well, it's the story of and

126
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:52.919
I'm going to probably mispronounced this name, but Ian Adair, a serial killer

127
00:10:54.080 --> 00:11:01.159
whom his father, Davis's father was
directly involved with taking down, with bringing

128
00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:09.080
him to justice and finding the gruesome
dungeon in the basement of his parents house,

129
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:16.879
which just so happened to also be
where a triple well a double murder

130
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:24.720
suicide took place. And so,
you know, p had decided that she

131
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:33.399
really wanted to do a documentary based
off of that the serial killer in Adair,

132
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:35.960
you know that's She's like, dude, here's the house. You know,

133
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.840
let's tell this story. Let you
know, maybe we can you know,

134
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:46.440
bring some tourism back to this town. Maybe we can tell the story

135
00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:50.960
of you know, your father and
you know how he was, you know,

136
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:58.720
the last victim of the serial killer
that whom you know shot his father.

137
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:03.000
Granted he didn't die of those wombs. He died from complications while being

138
00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:07.279
at the hospital and getting sick and
die in that way. I mean,

139
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:13.879
it was a indirect death caused by
the serial killer. And it's like,

140
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:16.759
dude, let's tell the story.
Let's get this out, let's do this.

141
00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:18.559
You know, you know, we
got you know, we have a

142
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:22.519
really good idea here. Let's do
it. And he's very like, I

143
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:24.360
don't want to do it. You
know, he did not want to do

144
00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:28.759
it whatsoever. You know, it
just it hits a little bit too close

145
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:33.679
to him, you know. I
mean, it's a childhood scar that hasn't

146
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:39.679
quite healed with him, and not
just because of his own situation, but

147
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:45.480
with his mother because she had never
been the same since you know. So

148
00:12:45.559 --> 00:12:48.399
he's like, no, I don't
you know, I don't want to do

149
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:52.840
that. Well, she talks him
into it, but not just her,

150
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:56.320
because you know that night going to
the bar talking with Stewart, which is

151
00:12:56.399 --> 00:13:01.279
Davis's friend, the son of the
owner of the are, it's like,

152
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:05.159
oh, well, you know,
let's you really should do that. You

153
00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:09.039
really should do the documentary on this
serial killer. And who knows, maybe

154
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:15.159
doing this story can bring some tourism
back to town and we can save the

155
00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:20.679
town because you know that's where Stuart's
you know, that's that was his motivation

156
00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:26.279
behind doing this. You know that
they all have different motivations in this.

157
00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:30.399
You know, Pia wants to tell
an awesome story because you know, the

158
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:33.360
story they were originally going to do
was kind of blow, kind of bland.

159
00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:37.559
You know, it really wasn't going
to go anywhere. It wasn't going

160
00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:43.120
to give them you know what what
Pia was wanting. You know that that

161
00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:46.799
fifteen minutes of fame, if you
will, It wasn't going to go anywhere.

162
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:48.720
And she kind of knew that.
You know, it was kind of

163
00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:50.879
boring, boring, and it just
wasn't going to go anywhere. But this

164
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:58.919
was something that really has that potential
if done right to really go somewhere,

165
00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:03.559
you know, and she had that
visionary aspect about it. She can see

166
00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:05.840
it without seeing it yet you know, it's like, this is a good

167
00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:09.320
story. We can do this.
It'll be awesome and amazing. And Stuart,

168
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:13.080
you know, his motivation was simple. He wanted to bring tourism back

169
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:20.639
to the town. He wanted to
save the town and in essence save the

170
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:28.799
bar, save the business that his
dad had built. And so you know

171
00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:33.559
Stuart's mom, who passed away four
years before you know, the the the

172
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:43.519
goings ons of the episode. You
know, she apparently followed the news on

173
00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:52.200
this story with with Ian Adair,
followed it okay, and had a bunch

174
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:56.720
of stuff, you know, newspaper
clippings, you know, pictures, different

175
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:03.000
information of that nature. And you
know, it was around the same time

176
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:05.960
frame two that we find out that
you know, Stewart's dad, the owner

177
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:11.519
of the bar, you know,
he was he really was not keen on

178
00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:15.120
what was going on. He didn't
want them doing this documentary. He really

179
00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:24.200
didn't. Okay. Now, following
logic on this, okay, there was

180
00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:30.639
some things or at least I guess
you could say, following the normal trends

181
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:37.200
of the genre that we're talking about
here, with a murder mystery, suspense,

182
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:41.039
thriller, found footage kind of a
thing. Okay, I automatically had

183
00:15:41.799 --> 00:15:54.799
suspicions about what's going on. Okay, because of all those Burgerac tapes,

184
00:15:56.159 --> 00:16:04.000
the TV series that the apparently Davis's
dad was really into and his mom as

185
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:08.559
well, was really really into those. To me, had a story to

186
00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:15.720
tell. There was something off about
all those cassette tapes sitting there and this

187
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:22.600
being roughly what fourteen years after the
fact, because you know, he's Davis

188
00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:27.159
is in college. Davis's dad died
whenever he was I believe eight, and

189
00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:33.360
so all this took place went down
when Davis was, you know, seven

190
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:41.000
ish years old. So we're talking
to good fourteen fifteen years since the fact,

191
00:16:42.080 --> 00:16:47.200
and with Stuart's dad, the owner
of the bar, with how he

192
00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:52.879
was you know, destroyed, you
know, just defeated he was, he

193
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:59.200
was a drunk, and how he
was angry and upset about them doing this

194
00:16:59.279 --> 00:17:07.000
documentary on this. My suspicion was
he was involved. My suspicion was that

195
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:10.200
he was, you know, a
co conspirator in this whole thing. That

196
00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:18.359
Ian didn't act alone. And that
somehow Janet was involved Davis's wife because of

197
00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:22.200
all those cassettes being there. She
was, in fact a fan of this

198
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.039
series, Burger acting, I'm like, she's got to be involved in this

199
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:36.880
somehow, because those tapes are very
suspicious to me. And what if Davis's

200
00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:52.240
dad was collateral damage, you know, somebody that found out too much and

201
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:59.839
they had to deal with it,
tie up loose ends, if you will.

202
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:03.000
And that's that's where my mind went. Okay, that's where my mind

203
00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:06.640
went. I'm like, this is
you know, there's things going on.

204
00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:11.160
This makes sense, that fits the
pattern of the genre of what we would

205
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:19.480
normally expect with this. I wonder
just how right I really am. So

206
00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:26.880
they're talking with somebody about their new
direction for the film, going from what

207
00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:34.599
they were going to do to doing
this documentary and offering something new, something

208
00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:42.480
that, you know, a part
of the story that hasn't been told before,

209
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:48.720
something that they could offer the went
beyond what is already known. Do

210
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:53.599
you have access to the house?
Oh? Absolutely so the trio, you

211
00:18:53.640 --> 00:19:00.319
know, Davis, Pia and Stuart
they break into the house Ian at There's

212
00:19:00.519 --> 00:19:06.680
house and they go to the location
where they know the the dungeon of death

213
00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:11.799
is in the basement of the house, and they go in there and you

214
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:18.599
know that their their their thought process
was, you know, this isn't going

215
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:21.920
to be all that bad. We
need to make this look a lot worse

216
00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:26.039
than what it really is. And
Stewart, for some odd reason, kind

217
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:30.039
of knew how to make that happen, you know, by by putting lemon

218
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:36.720
juice on surfaces and it being black
light reactive and it will look, you

219
00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:41.279
know, pretty nice. So they
put some lemon juice down and then they

220
00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:45.559
turned the lights out. They turned
the black lights on, and oh,

221
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:57.359
holy crap, because they didn't need
to use the lemon juice because that basement

222
00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:03.440
under a black light lit up like
a Christmas tree. There was that much

223
00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:12.039
remnants of biological material down their blood
that there was no need to doctor anything.

224
00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:18.160
So they're in they're in the space, they're in the area where the

225
00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:22.720
whole thing takes place, and it's
like, wow, you know, this

226
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:30.799
is kind of creepy. You know, this is kind of creepy. On

227
00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:41.119
the way back home to Davis's mom's
house, they get into an accident.

228
00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:48.079
They're at the hospital. The only
one really injured was Davis he was the

229
00:20:48.079 --> 00:20:55.119
one that was driving. Stewart was
okay, Pea was okay. But you

230
00:20:55.160 --> 00:20:57.039
know, Davis had a neck brace
on and he was going to be staying

231
00:20:57.079 --> 00:21:02.200
overnight for you know, observation.
He had a concussion. So they were

232
00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:04.400
like, we're going to keep you
overnight for observation, make sure nothing's wrong.

233
00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:08.920
And you know, no big deal, is just precaution. You're fine,

234
00:21:10.039 --> 00:21:14.240
but you know, we want to
keep you under observation just in case.

235
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:18.880
And for some reason, and I
don't remember what that reason was,

236
00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:23.160
but Stewart's dad was there, the
owner of the bar, and you know

237
00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:32.640
he's he's mean mugging or at least
paying a lot of attention to Davis and

238
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:45.559
Stewart and Pia. And after Stuart, Pia and Janet leave, Davis is

239
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:53.759
all by himself and there's some cutting
back and forth going on because whenever Janet

240
00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:56.720
gets Pia back to her house,
you know she's going to be making the

241
00:21:57.559 --> 00:22:03.200
shepherd's pie and nice dinner for them, and you know, Pia retreats to

242
00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:07.640
the upstairs wherever where they were staying
at, you know, Davis's room,

243
00:22:07.680 --> 00:22:11.160
and she's like, you know,
I got some stuff that I need to

244
00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:15.039
you know that I need to go
over. I need to digitize some of

245
00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:17.680
these cassette tapes. I need to
do this, you know, and work

246
00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:19.720
on this, so you know,
let me know when when supper is ready,

247
00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:23.880
and I'll be up here doing this. And she's going through and digitizing

248
00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:30.359
the cassette tapes because you know,
they use the same camera that her dad

249
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:37.640
had, or that that Davis's dad
have in order to do the documentary.

250
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:41.559
That's the camera they decide that they're
going to use. And apparently they ran

251
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:52.039
out of VHS tapes and well they
popped in one of the Burger AC tapes

252
00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:59.200
and recorded over it. Oh no
big deal. Mom will never know.

253
00:23:00.440 --> 00:23:08.960
So she's digitizing this cassette tape and
then it cuts back over to and I

254
00:23:10.079 --> 00:23:14.079
might have some of my you know, factoids in here, a little off.

255
00:23:14.160 --> 00:23:18.559
But you know, we got two
things going on simultaneously. We got

256
00:23:18.559 --> 00:23:25.839
Pia digitizing the VHS tapes, and
we have Davis alone at the hospital,

257
00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:29.200
laying in the bed and he's perusing
you know, he's got a cell phone,

258
00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:34.359
he's looking through social media, you
know. And Stuart's dad gets out

259
00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:42.559
of the bed and walks over to
where Davis is he sits down on the

260
00:23:42.599 --> 00:23:49.759
bed and he's like, I you
need to stop what you're doing. You

261
00:23:49.839 --> 00:24:03.039
need to quit because there's something about
ian Adair that just never quite sat right

262
00:24:03.160 --> 00:24:15.880
with me. And roughly at that
time, in the process of Pia digitizing

263
00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:22.759
the VHS tape, the part that
they record is done, and now you've

264
00:24:22.799 --> 00:24:29.200
got the ending to you know,
whatever episode was on that Burger Act tape

265
00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:32.119
and I'm probably not pronouncing that right
either, it doesn't matter, you know.

266
00:24:32.200 --> 00:24:34.680
And then next thing, you know, the end of the episode,

267
00:24:36.079 --> 00:24:45.319
and now you've got a home recording
at the end of that, and who's

268
00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:52.319
in the camera frame other than ian
A Dare? What's he doing there?

269
00:24:56.039 --> 00:25:02.119
This is Janet's VHS tape? What's
going on here? Oh? Holy crap,

270
00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:10.279
there's there's Davis's dad. You mean
he was involved in this. And

271
00:25:10.319 --> 00:25:15.720
then they talk about, you know, because you have the missing couple that

272
00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:19.680
was there, you know, the
story that brought all of this to light

273
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:25.960
and start started the ball rolling on
all of this. You see that couple

274
00:25:27.000 --> 00:25:33.759
in the dungeon of death at ian
Adair's house, and then the camera pans

275
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:42.240
over and then you have Janet coming
in through the door. Davis's mom.

276
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:51.400
Oh, holy crap. This wasn't
just one person whom was a serial killer.

277
00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:59.079
This was a trio of them.
And although I was right on my

278
00:25:59.240 --> 00:26:04.480
assumption to a point with Davis's mom
being involved, I mean, of course,

279
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:07.680
you know, she's the one,
you know who was a fan of

280
00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:12.839
this TV series that there's like fifteen
VHS tapes on there. But you know,

281
00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:23.240
I was wrong in my assessment on
Stuart's dad's involvement and with Davis's dad

282
00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:27.039
his involvement, because I was wrong
on that. I didn't think he was

283
00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:32.359
a co conspirator in this, you
know, I thought he was collateral damage.

284
00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:34.640
I thought he was, you know, just a loose end that had

285
00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:38.440
to be tied up. I thought
that Stewart's dad was involved, not that

286
00:26:38.519 --> 00:26:42.720
he you know, he really had
some deep, rude of suspicions that he

287
00:26:42.799 --> 00:26:48.920
never could prove, and that's why
he didn't want them to do this documentary.

288
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:51.799
I was wrong on that, you
know, I was. I was

289
00:26:51.839 --> 00:26:56.079
definitely surprised on it. I really
was, you know, I mean,

290
00:26:56.079 --> 00:27:02.799
there was like not entirely surprised.
You know, I'm used to the genre,

291
00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:06.119
man, I'm used to some of
the curveballs they liked to throw at

292
00:27:06.160 --> 00:27:14.160
you. But they definitely went a
direction that, although good, surprised me

293
00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:18.440
a little bit. I was like, huh, this went a little bit

294
00:27:18.559 --> 00:27:26.079
deeper than what I thought. It
did a little different of a direction.

295
00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:37.480
And then they went and surprised me
more because well, now Pan knows the

296
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:48.279
truth. Pan knows that Davis's mom, or wait, hold on, I

297
00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:59.359
misspoke. Pian now knows that ian
A Dare didn't act alone, that both

298
00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:08.119
davis mom and dad were directly involved
in this. So she now is terrified,

299
00:28:08.240 --> 00:28:17.960
and rightfully so. And then wouldn't
you have it? Janet walks through

300
00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:25.039
the door, Hey, supper's ready
now quickly. You know, Pia shuts

301
00:28:25.039 --> 00:28:29.039
the computer screen down, shuts that
puppy down there. You go, okay,

302
00:28:29.640 --> 00:28:34.240
but she couldn't she Pia can't play
poker. Let's just put it that

303
00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:37.640
way. She can't play poker.
And I mean, come on, I

304
00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:41.000
don't blame her. Would you be
any different? You just found out something

305
00:28:41.119 --> 00:28:48.599
that horrifying, you know, being
in a house all alone, basically nobody

306
00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:52.960
to Janet. You know, she
didn't know. You know, Janet didn't

307
00:28:52.960 --> 00:28:56.759
know Pia. You know, Davis
wasn't there. It was a two of

308
00:28:56.799 --> 00:29:02.200
them alone. She can do whatever
she wanted to to Pia, and nobody

309
00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:07.400
would be the wiser. Oh,
I don't know what happened she you know,

310
00:29:07.559 --> 00:29:11.920
she just left, took her stuff, she's gone. I don't I

311
00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:15.319
don't know. She got upset about
something. I have no idea. And

312
00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:19.720
why wouldn't they believe her? You
know, Pia wasn't part of that town,

313
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:23.400
wasn't part of that community. She
was a stranger to everybody. The

314
00:29:23.480 --> 00:29:30.240
only only three people that knew her
really was Davis, Janet and Stewart,

315
00:29:30.279 --> 00:29:33.119
the only people that really had contact
with her. Other than that. No,

316
00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:41.519
she could come up with any stories
she wanted to and get away scott

317
00:29:41.599 --> 00:29:49.480
free. So Pia obviously is and
and rightfully so she's terrified now she knows

318
00:29:49.599 --> 00:29:56.279
that she is in danger. You
in danger, Molly, you endanger girl,

319
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:11.640
Like holy crap. And then they
threw the loop in there because Jane

320
00:30:11.720 --> 00:30:15.519
is now suspicious because you know,
Pia has a horrible poker face. Pia

321
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:19.319
ends up leaving, walking down the
road trying to get cell phone services she

322
00:30:19.359 --> 00:30:26.480
can call Davis and tell him what
she just found out. Janet is suspicious

323
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:36.839
of Pia's sudden change in her mood, character, demeanor, the whole nine

324
00:30:36.920 --> 00:30:45.160
yards. She gets this, Oh, looking upstairs, I wonder what was

325
00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:52.240
going on. She goes into Davis's
room and at this point, the VHS,

326
00:30:52.319 --> 00:31:00.079
the VCR just finishes rewinding the cassette
tape that Pia was digitizing, and

327
00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:08.440
it ejects the VHS tape and lo
and behold, she sees what has written

328
00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:21.160
on the label Burger AC and Davis's
mom knows full well what's on that tape

329
00:31:23.839 --> 00:31:32.119
and knows that Pia knows she's got
to do something about it, hops into

330
00:31:32.160 --> 00:31:34.000
the car, drives down the road. But pa is smart enough and she

331
00:31:34.039 --> 00:31:40.119
gets away from her. Unfortunately,
in the process of getting away from Janet,

332
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:44.920
she slips, she falls down,
she you know, tragic accident,

333
00:31:44.920 --> 00:31:52.839
and she dies. But Janet,
not knowing Pia's demise, thinks that Pia

334
00:31:52.920 --> 00:32:00.680
got away and knows now that the
truth will come out, and so she

335
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:09.000
goes back to the house. She
takes every one of the Burger Ac vhs.

336
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:15.279
She stacks him all up. She
writes on a note, along with

337
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:22.319
other memorabilia and trophies that she had
kept over the years, and for your

338
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:40.680
film mom, the only thing written, the only explanation given, and then

339
00:32:40.759 --> 00:32:52.519
she hangs herself. Davis, of
course, now finds the truth, finds

340
00:32:52.519 --> 00:33:00.920
out the truth. He is dead. Davis's dad was not the hero that

341
00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:07.200
he had grown up thinking that he
was. His mom was not the woman

342
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:16.720
she or he thought she was.
His whole life now is flipped upside down.

343
00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:29.680
Holy crap, you know, a
an ideal of who you are?

344
00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:36.599
Your own identity is now it's been
destroyed. Everything you thought was true is

345
00:33:36.680 --> 00:33:40.920
now nothing. And he feels now
as though his entire childhood, everything,

346
00:33:45.519 --> 00:33:54.079
his very identity was based off of
a lie. Wow, he wins the

347
00:33:54.279 --> 00:34:02.039
film award and all is right in
the world. Tour comes back to Locke.

348
00:34:08.480 --> 00:34:19.000
Yeah, just an awesome, awesome
episode in a awesome awesome episode.

349
00:34:21.599 --> 00:34:23.400
So a few questions here, you
know, let's let's get right into this

350
00:34:23.440 --> 00:34:30.400
portion of it. So how do
you feel about found foot and how do

351
00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:32.800
you feel about Found Footage films?
Are you a fan? You like him,

352
00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:36.519
you don't like him? How many
of you seen? Which one is

353
00:34:36.599 --> 00:34:40.559
your favorite? I'll tell you mine
if you tell me yours. And honestly,

354
00:34:40.639 --> 00:34:46.280
I'm I'm a huge fan of the
Hell House LLC series. There's three

355
00:34:46.320 --> 00:34:51.159
of them right now. You take
the last twenty minutes out of the third

356
00:34:51.159 --> 00:34:54.719
one, and you've got like the
perfect found footage series right there. Loved

357
00:34:54.760 --> 00:34:59.559
it, really did, But I
gotta I gotta be honest with you,

358
00:34:59.599 --> 00:35:05.280
though. I hear they're making a
part four and I'm curious. Can't wait

359
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:07.480
to see that one. I hope, I hope I got I got the

360
00:35:07.559 --> 00:35:10.159
right one. But I heard they
were doing a part four. I'm hoping

361
00:35:10.159 --> 00:35:15.039
I got my my facts right on
that one, because I am definite fan

362
00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:19.840
of the The Hell House LLLC series
one, two, three, awesome,

363
00:35:20.320 --> 00:35:24.480
awesome shows. So you're a fan
of found footage? If so, what's

364
00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:30.280
your favorite? I'm curious, now, what's your favorite? And do you

365
00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:34.719
think that would be something you would
like to do? You know, not

366
00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:37.559
not your own found footage, although
you know, hey, if you would

367
00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:38.719
like to do that, let me
know on that one too, why not,

368
00:35:38.880 --> 00:35:42.840
let's throw that one in there too, But as far as doing some

369
00:35:42.960 --> 00:35:45.039
type of a documentary thing, because
that that's the thing. Man, you

370
00:35:45.079 --> 00:35:50.320
know, a camera is easy to
come by. I mean, come on,

371
00:35:50.360 --> 00:35:54.039
you know your your cell phone takes
good pickers, amazing videos. I

372
00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:59.920
mean it wouldn't take a whole heck
of a lot to create some awesome kind.

373
00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:05.360
And we all live in places.
We all know things about our own

374
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:10.119
hometown or area that we live,
or our own block or something. Every

375
00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:15.360
town has an Elm Street, every
town has horror stories, has a history,

376
00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:22.199
whether it be dark, whether it
be inspiring, whether it be whatever.

377
00:36:23.800 --> 00:36:28.679
We all know people or have people
in our families that have an amazing

378
00:36:28.719 --> 00:36:35.119
story to tell. Would that be
something that you would like to do a

379
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:37.000
passion if you will, that you
would like to pursue. Let me know.

380
00:36:38.920 --> 00:36:43.960
I'm I'm curious on that. You
know, do you have a hero

381
00:36:44.199 --> 00:36:51.679
in your family, a dark history
maybe that nobody would like the light to

382
00:36:51.760 --> 00:36:55.079
be shined onto. I mean,
I doubt you'll let me know on that

383
00:36:55.079 --> 00:36:58.280
one, but hey, please do
you know? Let me let me know

384
00:36:58.440 --> 00:37:02.760
in the comments, let me know
at Black Mirror podcast dot com. We're

385
00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:06.800
sending an email, let me know. I'm curious, let me know in

386
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:10.280
the discussion board. When I finally
get season six, episode two put up

387
00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:23.440
there. How would you feel if
everything you thought about your childhood you're growing

388
00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:29.840
up, you know a person in
your family that you know it had previously

389
00:37:29.880 --> 00:37:31.920
been a hero, for the whole
thing to come crashing down and for you

390
00:37:31.960 --> 00:37:37.199
to realize that everything was a lie. You know, has that ever happened

391
00:37:37.239 --> 00:37:42.320
to you? How did you take
it? Is that something that you think

392
00:37:42.400 --> 00:37:45.800
you would be able to handle very
well? I personally, I don't think

393
00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:49.519
so. I don't think I would
handle something like that very well at all,

394
00:37:50.719 --> 00:37:54.880
you know, just to shock,
especially coming from somebody whom you know,

395
00:37:55.039 --> 00:37:59.639
fresh well not even out of college
yet. I mean, he's not

396
00:37:59.719 --> 00:38:04.159
even made his own way in the
real world, if you will. I

397
00:38:04.159 --> 00:38:07.440
mean me, I'm in my mid
forties, I've you know, lived a

398
00:38:07.480 --> 00:38:13.760
life outside of childhood and college into
adulthood. So I mean for me that

399
00:38:14.320 --> 00:38:22.800
it wouldn't be as near of a
life and identity crisis as it had to

400
00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:29.000
have been for Davis. I mean, dude, could you imagine something like

401
00:38:29.039 --> 00:38:36.199
that? I mean, how a
man? I can't even imagine what that

402
00:38:36.760 --> 00:38:38.519
had to have done to his psyche. I mean, and you can just

403
00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:44.239
tell by how the you know,
how the episode ended, and how you

404
00:38:44.280 --> 00:38:51.719
know Davis was just kind of just
there through the whole end of the show,

405
00:38:52.920 --> 00:39:00.320
and that his world had completely been
destroyed. I mean, I don't

406
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:04.559
think I would handle it any better. I really don't, you know.

407
00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:14.880
Wow. So that is really all
I have for you today. I'm still

408
00:39:14.880 --> 00:39:20.079
