Speaker 1: Hello, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome back after a very
long time to the last of us review. But now
we're at season two, episode one. I'm the little Sadie Tress.
Speaker 2: Now I'm joined by I'm the viper to Compotser.
Speaker 3: I'm the Daddy's Home Taylor Fields.
Speaker 1: I specifically asked Taylor when we're in a business setting
not to call himself daddy at all. And now here
he's saying daddy's home. You know, I don't. I don't
need set can call him daddy, Madison call him daddy.
I don't need to call him.
Speaker 3: He's saying a business sitting. You're like, don't call yourself
daddy in these parts ever. Again, that's these parts of this.
We're just business Western are you from again?
Speaker 1: We're not friends outside of us, all of us were.
We signed a fifty year contract. Big mistake there. You know,
some people couldn't take the pressure. Kyle, Amber, Jessica. They
all left because like.
Speaker 4: Forty nine years they could do, but not fifteen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're like, oh no, but here we are. It's
us three. We don't know what happened. Dylan's hopefully a okay,
he might not he might have told he's not joined
for Last of Us, and we might have forgot. There's
a lot of things that happened and like that. There's
lots things happening at Geek first, but I'll tell you
all about that after the AD break. Yeah, we got
a slew of stuff happening in May, lots of good content,
lots of good episodes, fun times, so you can check
those all ouh. But like I said, I've talked about
that after the ad break, which if you go to
Patren you could avoid that. But let's get into this,
so Kirkland give like a brief synopsis in case we
got some new listeners of what you thought about season one.
I'll clarify that Kirkland and Tay have not played the games,
so we're not gonna talk about any game spoilers.
Speaker 4: They're too hard.
Speaker 1: I meant this, sorry, I meant specifically two Part two.
They've not played this game, so we're in uncharted territory now,
so we're not gonna talk about any game spoilers until
obviously they happen within the show. Same thing, we do
have a discord, the same rules there, we're talking strictly
the show. I'm going to dance around them because there's
some stuff that's a little tough, some stuff that's not.
It's kind of tricky. I'll wait till my overalls. But
Kirkland brief synopsis elevator pitch in case people are new
and don't know what you thought about season one, and
then what do you think about the premiere of season two?
We got a nice sixty minute girthy episodes. It's always nice.
You can pull that up. It's like, oh, yeah, we're
an HBO land, you know so, and yeah we'll be here.
We're viewing it to every week. So Kirkland, the ball's yours.
Speaker 5: The balls are mine. Uh yeah.
Speaker 2: Season one, Last of Us, I real really enjoyed it.
I thought it was just really well crafted to that
HBO standard where there's just something special about getting like
Sunday evening HBO like new show.
Speaker 5: Like it's just a.
Speaker 2: Nice uh like it's almost like an event like Sunday
night football, but you know, Sunday night to HBO.
Speaker 1: And I can only for two shows so halfway I
think right, Last of Us and Game of Thrones, So
those only two shows we've done the HBO Sundays.
Speaker 3: Like in person, you're saying no, I mean you you,
Me and Kyle gathered for I think the premiere of Game,
the final season Game Throw.
Speaker 1: So I mean it all and that's it would still count.
That would still count. I say, any show other than
Last of Us, Game of Thrones, because Kirkland's because we
did the Dragon.
Speaker 5: That's different.
Speaker 1: The Peacemakers on Thursdays.
Speaker 4: Next, that New Sea that was on HBO.
Speaker 2: Wasn't it It's on Crave and I considered, yeah, I
h continued, I don't have an HBO channel. I just
have Crave and that's what I watched on. But we digress. No,
but I I thought it was just really well crafted.
I thought it was really engaging story. I'd only ever
played that first game about halfway, so I knew some points,
but pretty much just kind of like the setup of
the characters, and then from that point on, it was
just what the storytellers of this show were able to
give me is what I got. And uh, big Pedro
Pascal fans, so I'm I'm always in his corner and
I thought he was just fantastic and pretty much everything
around that first season I really really dug. I didn't
rewatch that first season going into this, and I felt
like this is just kind of crept up on me.
You know, we're doing a lot, We're doing Daredevil right now,
We're doing a bunch of other things, and I just
feel like this, Uh, this slipped through the cracks. It
was a little bit surprised. You told me last night
that that it was coming in.
Speaker 5: I'm like, all right, yeah, but no, I watched season one.
Speaker 2: I'm really excited to just keep yeah, just keep watching
these every Sunday from here on out, going forward. And uh,
I had a really good time jumping into here. I
I think it was a little bit of like a
I don't want to say, like a slow build up
because it's like, well, it felt like an episode one
of like a new season. Like I felt like the
pacing kind of it was on par with what I
maybe would have expected, at least for the Last of
Us show like it. It has its high intensity moments,
but for the most part, it's Uh, I don't know.
Maybe I want to say some things, but maybe I'll
just I'll say them for when.
Speaker 1: They definitely take their time in the games like that too.
The game's pace in a way where you're supposed to
really feel what's going on? You know?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, but uh yeah, no, I think this
is really good. I definitely have many many questions because
because I didn't rewatch that first season, I can't remember
what like was revealed and what wasn't because there is
a new new faces to me at least, and maybe
I just am misremembering and I just don't remember seeing
certain characters. But for me, it felt like we got
introduced to a lot of new faces and uh just
dynamics between our characters that we already know of. So yeah,
I'm really looking forward to seeing how that builds going forward.
I'm expecting like a very heavy season of emotion wise.
I think the first season delivered on that, and I
can only imagine this season going to be just doubled
down in on that, on the emotions. And but no,
I thought it looked looked really good and uh yeah,
but I felt like the runtime, it felt like it
went pretty quick for the amount of minutes that were
actually on the episode. Maybe that is partly because I
just wanted a little bit more, But yeah, I think
I could have taken a two episode or on this
first week, I mean, getting that in the last couple
of shows I've been watching and maybe I'm just I'm
a glutton.
Speaker 1: Now, HBO, don't do that. You know, they want to
make you feel that, they want to make you they
want that subscription, the numbers, you know, so fair enough,
mister Field.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh boy, that first season. Thank god for doing
the rehash at the start. I really appreciate it when
shows do that, just give me a little bit of
a recap because a lot of stuff I don't remember.
I remember the sinkle and the zombie clickers come out.
Speaker 4: What do you call them in this They're called clickers?
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, yeah, everyone's got everyone's got their own name. Zombies,
the walkers, fuck clickers.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Anyways, that season was great, and from what I had
known from the first game, it was really cool to
get these spot on identical scenes in the show compared
to the game.
Speaker 4: Really enjoyed it.
Speaker 3: That aside, when the show went further than what I
was aware of in the game storyline, I.
Speaker 4: Just really enjoyed it.
Speaker 3: It's just really really good writing and good development of
these characters, and it has a lot of emotion and
tension and just it just feels hopeless. Well, let's say
in time like there's a beacon of hope in here
with one like trajectory of this character, but again, everything
else just feels hopeless and terrifying. And we get into
this it yes, it's a continuation of the previous season,
but uh, heck, I would never suggest this. I'd say
go watch the first season because the first season is great,
but the way that just starts off, I feel like
you don't even have to watch that first season because
it's just you're just here and it's just like diving
in with these characters, like, hey, this is I feel
like you say.
Speaker 1: That though if you, let's say, they couldn't watch the recap, though.
Speaker 3: I think you could because they this is not spoiling it.
But they immediately just shed light on a few things
where if you I feel like, again if you missed
that first season, like okay, well this with this character
explains this, Oh, this with this that explains that. And
they tackle a few things and not in a way
that a backtracks and backpedals where they're redoing things over again,
and it's like, oh, like, what is an equivalent to
that with Captain America Brave New World where you have
if you you have have Buck, you have Sam Wilson
going through things in that movie and it's okay, this
is an apparent relapse of what he's already conquered in
the show.
Speaker 4: That sucks.
Speaker 3: But in here you have them not rehashing it and
reconquering these issues. It's okay, these issues are still present
and they're going through these things still, but they've explained
it in a way that hey, that's just this is it,
and I just I like it. It's it's it's building off
of the recap, but it's also it's independent in its
own way, if that makes sense. It's I'm probably getting
a bit confusing with it. I just really like how
they they kicked this off. I think it was really
well done. And I think how we get to the
end of this episode too, it was. It was an
absolute banger. It definitely does feel a little bit of
a slow burn getting to where we're at. But I've
only been aware of some things with the game. I
remember when the second game came out, and I remember
seeing lots of streamers and lots of people putting up
the cut scenes and whatnot. So there's only a few
things that I could recognize. A lot of scenes in
this I recognize, but there was a few other things
that really freaked me out moments too, where you're just
like using your perperal vision. It just like those things
are great to really appreciate those, and it just does
a great job at being comedic and dramatic and horrific
at the same time, with that horror element always looming
in the in the background. So I'm excited to break
it down and get into the spoilers aspect because there's
definitely some questions I have too. But when the way
this episode ended was just banger, holy shit, I'm I'm
so stoked to see what happens next.
Speaker 1: Banger, he says. Yeah, one, I hate that you brought
up Brave New World because I just rethought of Bruce
Banner's ex girlfriend Highlight, so that was that was something
going on there. But you know, check out our Captain
America a Brave New World review. But yeah, this is
a very interesting and tough review for me to do
in a non spoiler sense. I'm gonna do my best
somemer professional you know, been doing this for ten years.
But there you go through it, Mike, you know, fantastic ping.
When was a sun HBO show there. We got ten
stars for super Bad Mic right there, So you'll be
happy to know, Mike, my kids were listening to Wicked today.
We'll brushing their teeth so shut out to you. Uh
it is a good show. Yeah, it's tough because all
I'll say about the second game not specific exployers, even
broad strokes, just like the way the game is paced
is it's not told in a in a like a
point A to point B. It's not chronological. So that's
the difficult thing for me. Where there's all and it's
multiple the game two games spans multiple years. You guys
already saw when they did the five years later, right,
They've done that right away. And that's where it's tough
for me because there's gonna be certain things that happen
at the beginning this game the middle of the end
that are all jumbled around. So that's tough for me
as far as not only to talk about like certain
choices and why they're doing this way, just in the
sense of already some of the things I feel they're
doing now I think are better in the game. And
you can go check out not to pit myself, but
top ten episode of all time, Last of Us too
sol overview this guy. It was a great episode. I
think I want I talk like two hours about that
game because it is a very controversial game. They do
lots of choices, lots of new characters that make a
lot of choices, like they take some swings, and I
think they're gonna do that. There's just certain things that's
the time about Mike and other people, probably in the
discord when we get there, that I'm just worried that
they're doing because they may have been like, oh, in
the game, people didn't like that, so let's not do
this anymore. Let's change it up. And I just I
hope they go full Monty and I'm not. I already
think there's certain things. I think there's certain things with
the Abbey characters. I'm like, oh, I feel like they've
reeled this back. There's certain things that I don't want
to say that I think they've reeled back. So I'm
just a little worried. It's kind of like a if
it's not broken, don't fix it. And there's many people
like at least Kurkul and Teara in the bubble, there's
many people that have no sense of what happens in
the game. Don't know. It's the same way as like
a book, right, You're adapting something no one's ever seen before,
and I guess they might go, oh, well, some people
don't like those choices. The problem with a lot of
those people that didn't like those choices were a bunch
of the like red eye thumbnail people. That's a thing
where it's like, oh, you know, strong female characters this
and that. It's like, like, I'm really worried. They're like, yeah,
you know what, they didn't like that when we did
that in the game, so let's not do that here.
So for me, oh man, they got them. Yeah. But
so for me, it's it's very tough to not so
much with season one because season one they changed them
stuff and added some stuff, but that felt there, there
was a clear path that's a point and a point
B story. Game two is covering so much space it's
very tough and for me, even the first scene like Okay,
why is this here? So I'm gonna try my best
to not kind of bring I will bring that in
later on because there's certain things I can't even talk about. Example,
because I know we have listeners too that haven't played
the game. So to talk about where it is. I
think everything's so great. The show looks great, acting is fantastic.
They're carrying stuff over from the game that I still
really enjoyed down to like the little bit of like
when Ellie and Dina dance, they play Little Sadie. That's
the song I'd never heard until I got to Last
of Us. That's like a one of my favorite songs
was Past Decade. I love that song so much. So
the stuff was like, okay, fields here, they're definitely adding
some stuff, and that's what's interesting too. I feel like
there's like about two things that they're adding that weren't
in that second game, or they're very minor and they're
gonna expand upon them. And I just wonder, because there's
certain areas we go to if they're kind of like eh,
because they've already said this is not a spoiler. They said, hey,
we've taken it the second game, and it's gonna be
at least two seasons, maybe three. So again, that's why
it's like, it's not a spoiler when I say that
the second game spans a lot of time. It's just
the thing of like do they not is there certain
things that go, ah, we want to say for season two,
so we're gonna pad this, We're gonna pad that. I'll
give examples when we get there that don't spoil anything
of Oh that's that that to me is completely new,
or oh that to add on, that's gonna give us
some more time and everything. So overall, really liked it.
For me, it's like a wait and see for some
of the changes. But there's one change in particular that
I can't talk about till maybe the end of season
that I go, I don't know if I like what
we're doing here. But everyone's great. The score is great.
But again it's like it's just like taking the video game.
Like the scores pretty much what the video game is, right,
they for a one to one adaptation for what it
looks like and sounds like that's still top notch. All
the actors are still great, like everyone still feels the
person that plays God, I can't remember her name. It's Isabelle. Yeah,
what's her name?
Speaker 2: Is all fantastic, Yeah, Mercid or something like.
Speaker 1: That, Mrcanna, Mercedes, it's not spell anyway, Isabelle. I can't
remember where else I saw her. I know she was
alien Ramla. She was the pregnant one. She was fantastic
in that movie. She's gonna be a Hawk Girl and Superman,
so I hope she's great in that. And there's something else,
And yeah, she's somebody that's like, oh what.
Speaker 2: She was live action Dora, not that one didn't watch.
Speaker 1: Didn't you do a review for that? Taylor?
Speaker 4: There is a review for there.
Speaker 1: You go check that out. But she's definitely somebody like watching. Luckily,
she's already been cast as Hawk Girl, so I don't
really gotta worry about like the superl draft. I just
like the next few years, just like watch her. I
think she's gonna really blow up and she's just very effortless.
And I really like the Dina character in the game too,
so and that the chemistry might last on spoy with
her and Ellie is something you have to nail, and
I think they're already nailing that. So yeah, no, I
think it's a I have some questions. I don't thin
excited to hear your guys's questions, but there's lots of
things that I it is like a wait and see
and it's interesting to because we all knew they were
gonna do something different because you couldn't tell the way
the game works you can. I don't think you could
do that in a TV show. I don't think the
audience has made for that. And I even think there's
some things you can go back to my review. My
is so many people had issues of oh my god,
Ellie's gay, but it's like the whole first game, like
there's fucking all these sens. Oh my god, there's a
strong female character as muscles. It's like, I don't know, dude,
like go to the gym, like all my issues, just
to clarify. And it was listening in the room and
I said issues last was too. It's none of that.
It's like pacing stuff, and there's even some stuff in
the second game. I go, uh, like, I don't know
if I like X, Y and Z that direction. We
went as far as like this scene there and this
scene there kind of messes up with the pace. But
then there's certain things that it does. Dude, it's kind
of like pulp fiction or we watched it this year
right for strange darling that it's out of order, but
the way it's told, you go, oh, I see why
they tell it this way. That's really clever. Where there's
some things it almost feels like they're kind of like, oh,
here's the It's like a magician being showing you a
trick and then right away being like, well, here's how
I did it. So for me, there's things that I
think are gonna have less impact. Multiple things that they
introduced that in the game did it in a different way.
So we'll get there when we get there. Fuck, we
might not even get there to like another four years
if it's some stuff in season three. But and if
they spend in the three season, I don't even know
what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna be fucking like snape,
like attracted to Harry Potter's mom just hold my tongue
for years and all the ways, you know. But that's
what we're gonna be doing right now. So we're gonna
take our first ad break and then we'll be right
back and we're back. So we're talking full spoils for
episode one the show. As I said, check out everything
you need to know is down below the links for
the video, the audio. Lots of big stuff this week

He said, you know some nags, but you had some
questions or some things you wanted to bring up. So
maybe let's start there and uh open this can.
Speaker 2: Before I get there, I'll say Isabella merced Isabella.
Speaker 1: Mar said, yeah, I foresee her in many Golden Geek
categories in the future.
Speaker 2: You know, she's fantastic, and she did.
Speaker 1: She We gave her one this year to think right
for the pregnancy scene. Yeah, we did.
Speaker 5: I don't think I I voted for that. No, No,
I mean nominated you.
Speaker 1: No, that's I mean she got a nomination. She's on
the board. You know, that's that's a start, you know, not.
Speaker 2: The pregnant cousin with the incest baby. But no, I
like maybe some of my hesitations I have on just
like seeing so many new like pieces on the board
and just like trying to figure out where they like,
where they fit together, and just just things like that,
because like right at the start, we get introduced to
this Abbey character. That's her name, right, Caitlyn Den. Now I.
Speaker 1: Think's got two names of my Caitly.
Speaker 5: That sounds right anyway, it sounds right.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I'm just gonna keep talking to somebody. Correct. There you go,
Thank you.
Speaker 2: You get introduced to this character, and I've I've heard
about her reputation just because it was a very talked
about character around the time when Last Best Part two
came out, and I I was just very confused because I, well,
you'll have to fill me in here. Was anything like
shown about this character in the previous season or like
her No.
Speaker 1: She's completely a season two character.
Speaker 2: So her just vendetta against that's something that's just gonna
be revealed this season. Like nothing that I would have
caught in the previous season.
Speaker 1: Uh no, so like it's not a spoiler or rape,
but like.
Speaker 2: No, I'll say no, he's wronged her in some way,
shape or form to the point that she wants to
kill him slowly and violence.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I didn't love the way that this started.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 2: I have like no attachment or like biases with the
character whatsoever. But it just felt me like kind of confused,
and it's like, Okay, this is just gonna be this
impending doom that is eventually gonna catch up to Joel
or like like this is gonna happen at some point.
I would imagine they're they're gonna interface, and I can't
imagine it's gonna go to too nightly with just how
furious she she's seeming in this quick scene, we don't
really detail too much of what happened, other than I
don't know, maybe Joel killed someone that was close to
her because they're they're starting it at some sort of
it was like a firefly like funeral, right, Like is that.
Speaker 5: What those pens?
Speaker 1: Yeah? It was? Yeah, yeah, and stack cast there forgot
like that was that was New Falcon there, right, Danny Ramirez.
I'm pretty sure he was with the squad.
Speaker 2: There oh yeah, yeah, that was him, right.
Speaker 1: I think he was not in like falcon shape because
he didn't look as Jack. But there's that. And then
there was that girl I think her name was Tatty
Gabrielle from You. So it's like that's a stack little
firefight cast right there. So I was when I saw.
I'm sure they were announced and we maybe talked or
heard about that, but I was like, oh, I forgot,
So it was like instantly, It's like, Okay, I like
three out of these five actors, so I'm excited to
see more of them.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm like going into this season, I knew
that this character was going to be in here. I
knew about the casting obviously, but I was just curious
how they were going to handle it and and just
the way that it started. I don't think I'm necessarily
the biggest fan of it, but like, I can't even
judge it because there's nothing really like beyond that that
was shown other than the moment right at the end
of the episode when it seems like they're getting pretty close.
Speaker 4: But yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I was just I was pretty confused because this was
a moment where I'm like, should I be remembering something
uh and and like it it happened a few times
throughout this episode, like just Ellie's pure just furiosity towards uh,
like Joel, like like.
Speaker 5: Is that something I'm missing? Or she's just moody teen
like that's.
Speaker 1: Just well, no, okay.
Speaker 2: So like maybe I wouldn't be feeling this way if
I actually just watched the first season and then everything's
like fresh in my mind.
Speaker 5: It's like, Okay, this.
Speaker 2: Is just something that's uh that they're they're starting, especially
doing like a five year jump, like clearly maybe they've
just been slowly pulling apart.
Speaker 5: But I don't know. It seems like Joel's doing trying
to better himself. He's going to.
Speaker 2: Therapy, he's uh, he's got a lot of a lot
of weight to the whole township on his shoulders. But
I I think just the way that we picked up
the pieces from last season, it just didn't seem like
it was the the cleanest transition over. But again, I
I I haven't seen that season since since it was
on air, so maybe that's my own disservice.
Speaker 1: Well, and there's even stuff like the the therapist when
she mentions Eugene, I was like, because it's a minor character. Yes,
it's because I had some of those. Chris, It's like
it's a minor character in Last of Us two that
you do like plays a role at some point. It's
kind of like the Bob character, remember from last year
was the couple. That's what they're doing with that character,
where in the second game it's a very minor character,
and this they're gonna expand it and do like an
episode of that, which makes sense. You got Catherine O'Hara,
who's like a bigger actress, right, But when they said Eugene,
I was like like, oh, you killed my husband. I
was like, what the fuck? Like I've played the game,
I watch the show, but I'm like, who the fuck?
Like what am I missing this whole big support like
from last year. I'm like, Oh, I guess it's someone
we're gonna dive into now. So I will say, like,
I think the stuff you brought up is nothing that
you should have known from last season, stuff that happens
kind of all over and whatnot. And I will say, like,
who knows, Like we're you know, I just talk about
my bubble. But Chris and Joe, who's played the game
and Mike who's played the game. We're all on iffy
on the start of the show because there's certain things
that are ever that were like, I don't know if
this really works being here. It's like because there's certain
aspects with the Addy character of things where it's like, oh,
this works really well here. Some people have some issues
with her. I never did. It's a you know, I'm
kind of bummed that they didn't go and get like
a very big lady. I think they just thought that,
oh while people memed us to death for this very
muscular girl, but it's like there's millions of body lifters
and this and that in the world, like and it
makes sense in a post apocalyptic world that somebody would
be like a little more juiced up and on, you
know whatever. Especially when they did like the five years
later jump, it's like she didn't look any different like
she like they it was her at the funeral in
the episode. It's like it just looks like it's you
may as well say five weeks later at least with
Bella Ramsey, they like they they don't. That's the unfortunate
thing with the TV show Pedro. I think they've definitely
put some old age makeup on him, because in real
life he does not look this old than this kind.
Speaker 4: Of crusty fantastic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like, man, dude's gonna kill him off like
a movie one. But like the thing is with her
or with they with them, sorry they Bella like they
don't look that much all they did. But the thing
is at least from the they show that same scene
to start the season, right of the first one where
it's like, hey, tell me, you know, did you do
anything back there? You tell the truth and they know
of course, like I told you everything, and then you
go away and then you get the fire Layer jump.
At least Bella looks somewhat aged, like it does look like, Okay,
it hasn't just been a week for Ellie, you know,
she looks like she has you know, grown somewhat, where
Abby just looks the exact same in five years. So
that to me was a little, uh, a little disappointing.
I almost thought they should have got like a different
actress made for that five years. But that's tough. I
know they're setting upside characters and whatnot and everything. So yeah,
it's interesting with there. It's a weird thing where Bella's grown,
Pedro has makeup, and Deaver doesn't look any different at all.
So it's just it's like a weird like time travel
situation right now the ages. But I digress. So am
I am I going?
Speaker 4: I go?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you go, okay, I go, uh yeah.
Speaker 3: The whole idea, just with people being pissed off and
whatnot with these like I guess tweet his own. I
don't have that strong connection, but I can understand people
being upset when things are not represented properly in a
game adaptation.
Speaker 4: I e.
Speaker 3: Halo seasons one and two specifically on showtime.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna say I don't think at least it's
that level. I've not talked to anybody that's like, I
think we're all just like, oh, that's an odd choice.
It might not work. I don't think anyone's talk. We
don't got a Master Cheeks single.
Speaker 4: That's all it comes to my is fucking Master Cheeks.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think so far with the time jump,
I was not expecting that, and from what I know
about this game and what I thought, for some reason,
I thought, okay, Ellie and Abby were going to become
a couple. I knew that Ellie has a somewhat of
interest in here, but I did not know it was Dina, right, Yea, yeah,
I did not know it was Dina.
Speaker 4: I was just waiting the whole time. Okay, So Abby's
pissed a Joel, but.
Speaker 3: He's gonna somehow get here and like five years later
they're gonna become a couple. But no, I am assuming
that's definitely not the case now because she's just out
for fucking blood.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true, that's true.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I so far like, I like the dynamic,
and I think that there's there's.
Speaker 4: It's just it's intense.
Speaker 3: And so what I'm trying to pick up on was, Okay,
so we haven't had a real discussion between Ellie and
Joel since the hospital, So it's been five years since
that had happened, right, they just haven't talked it out,
and she's pissed at him for saving her.
Speaker 1: So we're supposed to I'm supposed to believe man, maybe because.
Speaker 3: I just don't fully understand why she's mad at him.
And we get that session with Gail and he's like,
oh I saved her, and he's crying, and then he
leaves and I thought, well, I find this, this is
I'm not sure, this is confusing.
Speaker 1: I think you're right to be confused. I think I
think you're I think you're you're you're correct in your confusions.
That's the confusion. I'll say, the way you're feeling those
certain ways. I think that you did feel in the
video game as far as you weren't. They did drop
in a place you're like, Okay, we're kind of and
there was a time jump, like like I said, spam
many years, but you're kind of like, hey, what's exactly
happening here? Even the community, like they got a good
community going on for the most part, you know, like considering.
Speaker 4: Where we're the first Nope, they got to build faster.
Speaker 1: Right the die on it. But I mean like considering
where they were last from place to place, even where
Joel was with the the I can't remember the lady
as love interests of the lost, but like they're in
a community, but it just felt more dangerous and stuff,
so that they got that going on now and everything.
Speaker 2: So can you imagine you like you're you're in therapy,
you're supposed to be just like opening up. You're so
vulnerable and then your your therapist is just like just hammered.
She's just been like drinking hard liquor, don't know.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you fuck, I hate you.
Speaker 2: You shot my husband Like it was just such a
crazy turn, Like, man, page, get the fuck out of there,
like she's not I help you.
Speaker 1: Also the guy that like, they're not another therapist around,
Like I think she shouldn't be the one to be
helping this.
Speaker 4: Guy conflict of marijuana to.
Speaker 1: That's what yeah, I was gonna say, is she not
accepting his help and then he's paying, Because that's what
I was gonna say. In that community, I would assume
like in real world, money would not be a thing anymore, right, No, God, yeah,
so the way that they trade for services. But I
would have thought that, Okay, if someone's a therapist, it
wouldn't be like, well, you're gonna have to give her
something for to help you. I would think like, no,
if someone needs your help, you're gonna have to help them.
So I was wondering if the weed was just like
a tip or what not. But I was like, no,
like it makes sense where Ellie's like, hey, I trade
my boots for holster. I'm like, okay, I can see that.
But I don't think like Catherine O'Hara is getting paid.
It's just like, hey, you to do therapy and we'll
make sure there's food on your table stuff like that.
Like I don't know. So when he gave the weed,
I was a little surprised, but maybe it is just
kind of like to mull over the sorry I killed
your husband there, you know.
Speaker 4: So definitely her and see for sure, thank you.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Mike. I don't envy Tip twenty for spoils.
And that's what sucks is because if they did the
game route of how the game starts, I don't think
I would have to because they're messing with timeline stuff.
I'm like, okay, I'm gonna have to just walk on
this glass. You're like Ellie was in this episode, but
you know it's all good.
Speaker 3: Can you take me back to who the Eugene character
was and what context they got killed by Pedro in
the first season because.
Speaker 4: Did you already cover it?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I covered it by saying, oh, that didn't happen
in season one, and we get there at some point.
I had a whole we had a whole conversation being
Kirk and I thought you were a part of it,
but I guess not how that character is a minor
character in ce in the Game of two, but they're
expanding the role so we'll learn about the same way.
Speaker 4: But I thought you were talking about Abby when you
said that, Oh.
Speaker 1: No, Abby's like a main She's like the third main character.
Because it's funny the very the first thing they showed
of last of a Season or last of two of
the game was just Ellien and Joel playing guitar to
announce what was coming, and then the next scene was
like an action scene with Abby. For the longest time,
the theory people thought that Abby was Ellie's mom, and
the thing was because obviously not now because you guys know, oh,
she's after Joel. But with the game where it was
like non chronolog logical order, you could think that for
a while you would think, oh man, this Abbey character
could be your mom. But he said this game, this
show completely no same world, same timeline, five years old
and everything. But yeah, for a while people thought she
was Abby's mom, and that was like a working theory
but not not not not happening.
Speaker 2: So know that there's an image of the Eugene character
in this season. He appears later on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he comes to clicker. Yeah, just to update weekly
pizza bet we were watching. Can you bring the image
up again? There?
Speaker 5: Yes, I'm looking out for this scene.
Speaker 1: There's a pizza bet that Kirkland says, this scene's gonna
happen in the show. It's a clicker standing over Ellie
in a very provocative way. And Ellie he looks like
she's a bunch of makeup on because of ai CGI.
So if that image appears.
Speaker 5: She begins to make up at some point, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: Her get a pizza. And if not, which is not
gonna happen terribly getting a pizza, it could maybe do
Even Tonight episode. In even Tonight, I was walking around
in that like grocer, grocery marker or whatnot. I thought, oh,
maybe that could happen. So they introduced although this guys,
they introduced the uh they haven't named them yet. I'm
not sure if they will. In the games, they call
them stalkers. They're smart clickers, which I was like, I'm
talking chrismic smart clickers. They changed them like a little bit.
They made him sound like a bit more human. But
they are supposed to be like faster and high. What
do you guys think about the concept of our we're
goett a new type of morphed person.
Speaker 5: So I loved it.
Speaker 2: It was it was a really freaky scene, very much
reminiscent of a certain hereditary scene with like crawling in
the background.
Speaker 5: And uh, yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I I thought there was gonna be like a little
bit more to the scene. Like I thought it was
actually gonna like communicate or something with Ellie. Maybe that
will happen later on, because it seems like this is
like the first time well I don't know about the
first time, but it seems like a big step and
just kind of the evolution of these like infected where
they like it's just a different type than they've seen
in the past. It's like a classic video game, you know,
like game two old now there's there's different types of zombies.
But I don't know, I am intrigued by seeing more
of them because it it was a cool scene.
Speaker 5: It had some good suspense to it.
Speaker 2: Freaky look especially it's just like kind of like a
childlike body, which makes that much more terrifying. But yeah,
and then bit Ellie and yeah, you.
Speaker 3: Say, like you know it'd be you're thinking it was
gonna like communicate with her or something like that, like
talk or yeah.
Speaker 2: He.
Speaker 4: Just here's that in the distance.
Speaker 1: You can't get off the Yeah, but tround just perkangle.
He's a soccer now in shadow.
Speaker 5: You just see that.
Speaker 1: Run at me a faster man. Yeah.
Speaker 4: That all scene was great.
Speaker 3: I understand like that they're pros and all that kind
of stuff now. But it's funny because when me and
Madison watching Attack of the Clones earlier and itticipation for
Revenge of the Siths dropping at theaters in a couple
of weeks, there's one scene there where Yoda's like, oh,
you know, too sure of themselves, like the younger ones, YadA, YadA, YadA,
And I'm just thinking, man, this is just this is
right here, Like they're these younger Yes, they're like nineteen
twenty whatever, but they're younger and they're too sure of themselves.
They pull out their knives and think, oh, we got this, yeah,
YadA YadA. I don't know why I would actively be
going into an enclosed area like this knowing, okay, yes
there's two, there could be more.
Speaker 4: You guys are definitely really confident.
Speaker 3: You guys are you've experienced this world, I have not,
so you guys have picked up some extra things and
know how to deal with these situations. But I just
think going in there like that, leaving your backup outside
like this is just so risky and dangerous.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you gotta remember, like for the most part,
Ellie's playing with a god mode on, right, she can't
get affected from.
Speaker 3: The Yeah, but she's putting others at risk by doing
it too, And that's again just a cocky factor that
and again it's just the way the character's written. And
I think that's great. Like, I'm not docking at points.
I just know for me watching it's just it irks
me because I think, man like they she shouldn't be
and they all they shouldn't be encouraging her and enabling her.
Like it's just it's dangerous. But at the end of
the day, it's just the way the story is. And
I'm not docking at points.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, what I was gonna say, Because it's been
a while, you can remember they did this in season one,
but they did a reminder even at the beginning of
this episode where she's fighting that big guy has been
an armbar and he taps and she keeps like like
like reckon the arm and everything like that. Ellie's a
character that is very aggressive and has a lot of
pent up frustration, and it just takes it in the wrong way.
So it's like she just wants to find these clickers,
not even for the good of like, oh, we'll take
them out. She just wants to fucking stab something and
murder like she's yeah, and she.
Speaker 3: Does that when she stabs the one and she's like yeah,
nice and sees the blood coming out of its head.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that is anytime that like can do violence. Ah,
And that's something especially they'll dive into this season is
just like how kind of disturb Elie can be and
how far that can go and what the line is.
I was gonna say that's one thing where I didn't
mind that. I think there's that was good chemistry building
the hole. You got the horse ride and you got
them going in there. I thought the scene of them
like going to the clickers when they split up was
way too long when they're doing like, yeah, the knife
and I was like, cut like a minute, a minute
half is out like that you do this and they're
like the ball. It's like it's just fine. I can't
remember the game if there's something like that, if because
the ball is like a big thing the game you
can throw. So I'm not sure if there was like
a tutorial moment they're like, oh, we should put this
on the show. But I was like, I'm already buying
the chemistry. I understand what's going on here. And it
wasn't like so funny. It was like, oh, this is
great stuff. So it just that's the only thing that
killed the tension for me. And now that was too
tension filled because you know, okay, these are the main
characters episode one, but also just like they're only in
here kind of hunting for sport. I just thought it
was paced oddly at the beginning, took too long, but
then after the fact it was it was good and
you got the little counsel there and stuff that you
know now knows about the stalkers.
Speaker 3: So I have a question about the cordyceps virus after
this uh thing. I want to mention with them going
in there and with this evolved stalker clicker. Again, I
really like that concept, and I know you see it
in many different zombie iterations and whatnot. I think it
is an absolute like I feel like it's like a
staple when you're in these situations. Eventually, like something like this,
it's not going to just come to a standstill. And
these things aren't dead like zombies. It's it's an evolving
thing and you're gonna get something that's smarter, and when
will be In Madison, we're watching this matter, it's like,
why is it just toying with her and whatnot? I'm
thinking no, like it's it's hunting her and stalking her
and the thing just being underneath the Yeah go on, yeah,
I'll crawl out from underneath the table behind you.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So I just I thought everything about that was really good.
And the peripheral vision too, when it's like it's crawling
on the ceiling behind her and then like she's going
down the aisles and it's moving adjacent to her.
Speaker 4: Just just freaky, freaky shit. But I liked it. I
liked everything about it. I thought it was really really good.
Speaker 3: Now regarding the virus, so the I didn't have an
answer for this, and I wasn't sure. So they eat
obviously wildlife and animals, but it's not transferable. It only
is in humans. Correct, That bear is not gonna get
infected or I.
Speaker 1: Can't remember if it was. But at the same time,
like they completely like tore that bear apart, So I
feel like maybe there was.
Speaker 3: They were eating a deer earlier too, and that's again
another reason I thought, well, do the animals get infected?
Speaker 1: Yeah, for some reason I thought there was like a
clicker bear at some point, but maybe I'm wrong. Maybe
it's on animals, or again, maybe they just that bear
was too far gone, like you can't I know, that's
like a zombie sort of thing. But maybe it was
just like, Okay, it's completely stomach's gone, Like what's it
gonna do, It's gonna walk and just like split apart
in two, right, But god, a bear got fucked up
big time that whole situation. And yeah, those three that
were hanging back, they really don't have much leadership there.
You know, they're been pretty useless.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, you're really gonna let them just go. Oh,
I'll give them, I'll give him five minutes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that was definitely longer than five minutes. But yeah,
they sat up there that that was like at least
a fling or someone that Ellie used to date. And
then now they've we get this a little bit here
where they started to set up some in the chemistry.
Diana I can't remember her former boyfriend's name, Jesse Jesse. Yeah,
he pops up a couple more times, established that she's
broken up with him, and then we get to the
dance later where you know, he's like, oh, she's really
showing off and she's kind of Ellie kind of implies like, oh,
it's for you and you'll be back together. It's like, oh,
we're not getting back together. And then after Dina's making
her move and rubbing herself or stinky self on her
and everything like that, and this is where we got
little Sadie the dance scene, which I was like, the
set has pretty much one for one of the game.
She picked her the back ground here and then yeah,
they kiss, so it's kind of establishing. Okay, Dina is uh,
you know, down to go multiple ways, and then we
get you know, fucking I don't know, I have many
descripting words, but I don't want to offend any of
the podcast. We get something it's not for He does
the whole like, oh there's a family event. You know.
Speaker 2: It's so hard when it like they're like embraced each
other and then it just goes to this guy.
Speaker 5: He just got like a disgustive face.
Speaker 2: No, he's like, it's a family event.
Speaker 5: It's just like, oh my god.
Speaker 2: His his like I I didn't even take it like
he was like being like a homophobe in that moment.
He was just like, it's family event, guys. And then
he had to d word.
Speaker 1: That showed his cards right there, like maybe Jim has
a point that is okay, No, he's Jim's lost, like
he can't like he's gone. And then yeah, they go
to do that and then Ella or then that's where
Joel comes like fucking batman nowhere and push the by
the ground and then they have a big fight. But yeah,
what are you guys thoughts of this situation. But then
just Ellie and Dina in general. Uh, we talked about
a little bit of Isabelle, but just a relationship they're
sending up here.
Speaker 2: No, I think they have fantastic chemistry, just like Dina
is just fantastic Isabella mer I like even just her
dynamic with every other character, whether it was Joel or Jesse,
like just just seems like she's she's just able. I
don't know to just uplift, like like just the dialogue
between like just boring characters, like she she just seems
so like dynamic of a character. So I'm very much
excited to see how how she evolves. Hopefully it's it's
not too sad and and and things that might happen,
but we'll we'll get there when we get there. But
specifically between her and Ellie, I think it's really fun.
I think I was really surprised by Dina bean so
like gung ho and like ready to go on this
dangerous adventure because like I get it for Ellie as
yourd mention is basically playing with god Mo. She can't
get infected. But it seems like Dina is just like
almost leading the charge like into this building, like like
even without Ellie's willingness, uh to get in there. I
guess she was kind of hesitant initially when you know,
Ellie was like, oh, there's one clicker, and then she
realized that there's two, and then she's just a little
bit slow to get in there. But right away she
just holstered her weapon, pulled out the knife, ready to
jump right in there. And not something I would do, no,
but uh, not at all I guess I'm a coward.
I would be I would be on on gate duty.
I think I wouldn't be on the recon five year
old men.
Speaker 1: You know, we're also three year old men were there
like in their nineteen early twenties, right, so that's true.
You guys are gonna be thirty soon. So already you're like, well,
you know, I got I got things to do. I
don't know if I only get a bit right now?
You know where they you know, Ellie has God mode
and dina' is a single lady. It's just like, ah,
fuck it whatever, but yeah, the knife away. I'm Mike,
But I guess at the same point, though, you still
probably live in a world where you have to consume
amo you don't. You probably only want to use that
gun when you have to.
Speaker 4: If you're in God mode, you're blowing fucking amal.
Speaker 3: They're doing practice targeting on the hillside for five That's.
Speaker 1: The practice that to me is different than just like
if you know, the click because at this point they
don't think there's a smart clicker, right, so they know, okay,
there's one clicker, they can easily just throw a body
comes over, they kill them. If you know it's that
easy with the knife, why waste any am? Yeah, the
sniper they're working on headshots everything like that, so I
can kind of get that degree. The question is just like, hey,
would you still even go in there? Like even the ladies,
like you don't need to go in there, Like what
if a baby's in there? Like a baby's not in there,
Like there's no reason, Like I don't think they're like
we really need this food, Like it's not mission based
at all. They're just like, oh, we're gonna see those people,
and like they're just lying to the group because they
want to go and have some fun. But yeah, so
I guess that's maybe the thought behind the knife. Even
though Ellie's just a sick fuck who like she wants to.
Speaker 3: She becomes Mac from the Predator, like i'd be some fun.
Speaker 1: She's gonna be shaved with that knife.
Speaker 6: Yeah, bald heads, I wasn't intrigued by, uh, like the
conversation between Dina and Joel, like the first time you
even see Dina.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: It just seems like I don't know, there's some underlying
untrustworthiness I think to this character. Just yeah, just from
that scene, it just it just seemed like, I don't know,
if she's trying to get something out of Joel, I
don't know, just just she's overly friendly. Maybe that's the
way that I received that, just the vibe of that sequence,
But who knows, I am reading into it too much.
Speaker 1: I did like the transition where they started with Ellie
and at that point they hadn't talked about the tension
here and Joel, and they cut to Joel work on
something and it's like a young girl lady voice being like,
oh hey, and then he's like, oh, how's it going,
And they cut and it's not Ellie, but they make
you think like it's all good, and then you kind
of learn like, Okay, there's some stuff going on there.
They're not talking Dinas. Dina and Tommy are kind of
like the middleman between them too, like either feeding information
or not feeding the right inform, like whatever is happening there.
So I like that transition to kind of make you think, like, oh,
ell he's gonna be here, but she's still living there,
she's still in the garage. We got that established, and
then yeah, we met Catherine O'Hare. We choked a little
bit about that therapy stuff. That's stuff that's not in
the game. So I think this is just kind of
more like I think they want to add more stuff
to do with this town and flesh it out. So
that's where I think they're like, Okay, well let's give
Joel therapists and maybe other people have the therapy sessions too, right,
but that was not something because the game you still
you have this area. I don't think it's like you
leave the town of venturing. There's an adventure they go on,
and that's where I think they're I think because they
want it's a TV show kind of pad some stuff out.
I think the therapist is gonna be used for that.
And there's another thing as well too. But I thought
that was really good scene. I thought Pedro's scene was
really good too, when he's when she's say, hey, I'm
gonna say this thing. I don't like it. You know,
we already talked about the husband thing. But then it's
like you say your a bit and he says, like
as much as he's willing to say, but he still
never gives the full story to the people there, so
and he also doesn't want people know he's in therapy.
But because I'm not sure, maybe he still thinks, like
I understand people might get it like, oh, he had
to save Alley, but he still killed a bunch of
scientists that maybe could save the world because he didn't
want to lose his adopted daughter. You know. So it's
a maybe if that gets around town, maybe maybe Joel
won't be invited to the New Year's party anymore.
Speaker 4: You know, secret.
Speaker 1: There's too much happen there.
Speaker 2: I just said, especially if he doesn't if he keeps
on shoulder checking.
Speaker 1: People, absolutely they're going to worry what you're saying.
Speaker 3: Now, well them trying to keep the secret of her
being immune, right, I mean the brother knows, so there's
probably the only two. Her love interest Dina does not know,
and the council obviously doesn't know because they're when the
brothers on the council are like, oh.
Speaker 4: Why does it matter with her? Why they got to
keep extra protection with her?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yea dada, And they're looking at him and he's
like he just kind of hutches up about it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't think that secrets as big though as
Joel killed dozens of people, though, because like if they
don't know about the scientists will be like, oh, Wow,
Ellie can't get affected. That's crazy where it's like, oh,
Joel killed, like how many innocent people?
Speaker 3: I think they'd carve her up though, if I think
they'd be the same as the fireflies.
Speaker 1: But I know it doesn't look like they get the
scientists there, you know that's one.
Speaker 3: That's right, Joe, you killed the last scientist on planet Earth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, I don't maybe there's somebody there, but I
guarantee you if they were scientists and they hear the story,
they're probably like, you know what, I'm a retired scientist.
I don't. I don't believe in that anymore, you know.
So let's take our last ad break and they'll beat
right back and we are back. So, yeah, you guys
have anything to add on the therapy scene or moving
on or.
Speaker 2: It's just really well done. Cathrone Hair was fantastic. It's
it's funny. I like the think I've seen her in
most recently is just in Shit's Creek, and her character
of Moira is like just so like over the top
of the way that she talks, so to have her
just talking normally in here kind of trip me out.
But no, she she played that scene really, really well, yeah.
Speaker 1: No, she's a great actress, great to have the show
page you always delivered, So it should be interesting dam
to see throughout the season. What have we not talked
about so far? And that was the end thing, but
we can leave that anything else that specifically we haven't
touched upon yet.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Just it was interesting that the tackling the
topic of like, you want to help people, that's what
this place is supposed to be, but like they're literally
bringing in too many people. So yeah, just uh, that's
just always like a tough idea and these like post
apocalyptic survival stories, so it's uh, I like how they
they highlighted that on just like the difficulty of that
decision and the reality of it, And I imagine that'll
be well maybe not, but I imagine that'll be something
that kind of just evolves as we keep going on
with this show, we interact with more survivors, and we've
already had like the the man versus man threats of
the previous season, not necessarily the infected, So yeah, that's
gonna be an interesting threat to tackle.
Speaker 1: He's stills just his cutthroat just about scientists. He's like, yeah,
well came out there is.
Speaker 5: A white coat a sign.
Speaker 2: Just honey, that's the first scientist that they see in
the village that they all come in and and everything.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the house is just over there. Joel's can
come check on you later, And then like, hone, either
fucking kid. Yeah, Joel's just there like they just specialized
in chicken pox. That's it. Leave us alone, like they're
just here to help us with the pots. But yeah, no,
that'll be good. And then we got too because I
can't remember for the life of me, I don't think Tommy, yeah,
because that kid's younger. I don't I don't even know
if any girlfriend. But they all also stashed. Tommy's married
or with a lady and has a kid now. So
now Joel's like an uncle. And I thought that was
a fun scene too. I think it's great when you
have Joel in one scene talking about just letting in
and some people die outside the wall, and then it
be like are you killing the monsters? Like he's just
like this the fucking uncle mode and everything. So h
I like that dichotomy mm hmmm uh. And then we
ended up with so we had the shove happen. Ellie
just in front of everybody because fucking Pedro's like, oh
you know, or Joe's like, oh you should one just
I love always like oh, your your strings are whatever
whatever the term is. I'm not a guitar has but
there your bird is baked. Yeah, and then then she's like,
oh that's fine, I'll fix it, and he just like
fucking rushes out of there the guitar like a thief.
But then so that happens, and then we get the party.
They appear there we talked about that, he pushes them,
comes up, but then she motherfuckers Joel in front of everybody,
which is like, you know, Joel's one that want her
to go to make an appearance. But now it's like
if it's even a hush hush of like oh what's
going on this, you know, it doesn't even just look
like oh it's them fighting. It's just like she's tell
them leaving the fuck alone, so like, oh, you live
with the guys, that's an interesting thing. But then yeah,
they go back. Joel's on the deck, fix the guitar,
playing the guitar. Ellie doesn't want anything to do with them,
just b lines and goes right to right to your
bedroom and then we kind of get some transition and
panning to that pipe or whatever someone was working on
the beginning of the episode or near the beginning of
the the first sequence of the episode, and now you
zoom in, it looks like there's some core steps grown
out of there. Uh, that is something that's not in
the game, and that's why I think there's gonna be padding.
I think you might get a full episode of like
the City's Overrun with X, Y and Z, because like
it's the city has a role to play, but it's
not how big. I think it's gonna be. And I
think that's gonna be at least one episode of City
Versus because they're so making like they're taking ones that
are out. They got people watching the wall, they're not
thinking about like, okay, what's coming within. So I think
you might get an episode like I feel like every
zombie undad show does that where somehow something gets in
and kind of fucks everything up, and I think they're
gonna something's gonna happen there. So yeah, that's unpressed territory
for me that they've never done anything with, like the
city gets hit with something like that. Most of the
big events happen when they leave.
Speaker 3: So well, I remember watching some comparison stuff and I
thought the video shows, like in the game, the city
gets attacked at some point.
Speaker 1: I don't recall that though, like I don't recall being within.
I thought I was talking about.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not saying within like they they attack from
the outside, and I'm only saying that because this was
a pipe from the outside going in. And remember in
season one they said, well that the like the ends
of these quarter SEPs. Fun guy, Yeah, when it detects
something in one spot, it sends a signal to all
the way to them miles away, and they'll respond to it.
So I think, Okay, these in this pipe, it's just
like the tips of these quartersteps. It's not going to
become anything further. But then when this flair dropped there,
it's it tingled with them, like oh shit, so it's
gonna send a whole horde of these clickers to their base.
I think, Okay, that's how I'm interpreting.
Speaker 1: It might be a variation. Yeah, you could be right, Yeah,
it could be. It could be that then, because yeah,
if it's I don't think it's attack on the inside.
So yeah, it might be that because I know there
is a situation that gets them kind of leaving and
moving around. But yeah, you might be right on that,
so I have to I'd have to think about that.
I'm looking. Of course, they don't see anything like that
goes to that specific of it, and I always remember
more of the human baseball points. So yeah, we'll see.
If it's just that, then then we're fine. If it's
something gets inside, that's that's definitely something new. But again,
with it being a show, they might they might padd
some stuff out and add some stuff, but hopefull everyone survives.
Speaker 4: You know, Yeah, I'll have to wait and see.
Speaker 1: Yeah, anything else before we get out of here.
Speaker 2: I like the breakdown of the breakers that uh springs
good old you know, electrical knowledge. There he was, he
was spitting some some good knowledge.
Speaker 4: Is that true, Kirkling. I got to just go and
place the springs.
Speaker 2: I've never I've never done that, but I've never been
in the apocalypse. Normally, if if one's broken, I just
toss it and go buy another one. So uh yeah,
maybe you should test it.
Speaker 1: And then come back and give the show one.
Speaker 5: So he fucking lied, try to fix it. It doesn't
fix it just lights the whole house on fire.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've lost everything, thanks Last of Us. But uh well,
there you go. We'll be back next week at some point.
We're figuring that out, uh date wise, because it's a
same night as WrestleMania two or resume at night two,
and I don't we we don't know, assass of telling
me all these reviews that Tara will be gone. Maybe
so we'll we'll go back and see what's happening. So
uh yeah, until then, promise you it'll not be boring
