WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Can I tell you about an ad that I heard

2
00:00:02.600 --> 00:00:03.759
<v Speaker 1>on this very podcast.

3
00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:06.040
<v Speaker 2>Sure you get ads, I do get ads.

4
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:09.039
<v Speaker 1>I do, I do get ads. Okay, it's a dog

5
00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:12.199
<v Speaker 1>food ad and it's a dialogue between two people, okay,

6
00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:15.000
<v Speaker 1>and one person says, is your dog's food human grade

7
00:00:15.080 --> 00:00:17.719
<v Speaker 1>or feed grade? And they go on they say feed

8
00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:19.839
<v Speaker 1>grade is meant for cattle and livestock that can only

9
00:00:19.879 --> 00:00:22.600
<v Speaker 1>live a few years. And the other person says, this

10
00:00:22.679 --> 00:00:24.800
<v Speaker 1>one's human grade. Wow, Can I have some?

11
00:00:26.120 --> 00:00:26.879
<v Speaker 2>Are they gonna eat it?

12
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:30.800
<v Speaker 1>That's that's that is that's the implication, Like the dog

13
00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:33.719
<v Speaker 1>food's so good. The owner is like, you know what, good?

14
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:36.600
<v Speaker 2>Yum? For real?

15
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:40.479
<v Speaker 1>For real though, for real? Though this this cow liver.

16
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:43.240
<v Speaker 2>My doctor has told me I don't eat enough protein.

17
00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Maybe that's how I do it?

18
00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:47.240
<v Speaker 1>Just alpo.

19
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:49.719
<v Speaker 2>Maybe farmer's friend is now my friend too.

20
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Do you think the dog food that Crystal Connors Ain't

21
00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:52.759
<v Speaker 1>and Showgirls was human grade?

22
00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:59.799
<v Speaker 2>No, that bitch was eating puppy chow, the actual kibble,

23
00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:04.319
<v Speaker 2>breaking your teeth if you had to, would you eat

24
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:06.599
<v Speaker 2>dog food or cat food if you had to pick?

25
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:09.359
<v Speaker 1>Oh, it's wet we're talking the West. Yes, the wet

26
00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>food in my experience. The dog wet food smells better

27
00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:15.120
<v Speaker 1>yes than the cow.

28
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:17.439
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna say if we had the same like yes,

29
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:21.680
<v Speaker 2>because cat food smells horrible, like really horrible, and dog

30
00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:25.319
<v Speaker 2>foods sometimes every once in a while it kind of

31
00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:26.040
<v Speaker 2>looks like steak.

32
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Throw it in a frying pan. Every time, when I

33
00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:31.159
<v Speaker 1>feed Oliver in the morning, I have I have a

34
00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:33.159
<v Speaker 1>little spoon and I because he doesn't get a whole can,

35
00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:35.400
<v Speaker 1>so I have to scoop some out. And I swear

36
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:37.560
<v Speaker 1>this has never happened. But I'm so used to cooking,

37
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:39.480
<v Speaker 1>and usually when I cook, you like taste, and I'm like,

38
00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:41.920
<v Speaker 1>one of these days you're going to use it. I'm

39
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:44.680
<v Speaker 1>going to just absent mindedly put this in my mouth

40
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>and then I'm going to scream at the top of

41
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:48.319
<v Speaker 1>my lugs.

42
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:06.840
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Paul America, And this is that aged well yesterday's

43
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:08.000
<v Speaker 2>pop Culture.

47
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:21.479
<v Speaker 2>felt them a thousand percent?

48
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:22.919
<v Speaker 1>They felt the jazz hands.

49
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:27.120
<v Speaker 2>Right, I'll intro that with like, full chested jazz hands, full.

50
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:29.919
<v Speaker 1>Chested yes, what is the over under on the number

51
00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:31.960
<v Speaker 1>of times this month that I'm going to sing. God,

52
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm a dancer so many times A dancer dance.

53
00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Too many times?

54
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, conservatively seventy six.

55
00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:42.319
<v Speaker 2>Don't ruin my favorite month, Dance Month.

56
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Don't worry, Erica, I can ruin this one. We are

57
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:48.680
<v Speaker 1>mere weeks away at this point from Spooky Movie Month,

58
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:51.960
<v Speaker 1>followed by Classics Movie Month, followed by Holiday movie.

59
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Just what I think that nothing can beat those like

60
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:56.520
<v Speaker 2>three last months of the year. We fucking kill it

61
00:02:56.560 --> 00:03:00.520
<v Speaker 2>with dance dance movie. Look, spoiler. Last month was slog

62
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.319
<v Speaker 2>for me. I'm not gonna lie, it's not It wasn't

63
00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:02.719
<v Speaker 2>my month.

64
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:03.360
<v Speaker 1>It's fine.

65
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:10.479
<v Speaker 2>This month is for me. I love a fucking dance movie.

66
00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:12.120
<v Speaker 1>All right. Before we get to the first dance movie

67
00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:14.199
<v Speaker 1>of the month, though, Erica, we have five star Apple

68
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:16.800
<v Speaker 1>podcast reviews. Erica, do you want to read the first one?

69
00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Sure thing? This first review comes from Diane five one

70
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:23.919
<v Speaker 2>seventy nine. In case anyone needs to know her pin

71
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:24.960
<v Speaker 2>code for her ATM.

72
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:28.639
<v Speaker 1>I think that's her birthday, say it? She is almost

73
00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:29.719
<v Speaker 1>exactly our age.

74
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:31.919
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, pretty sure that's the pin code for

75
00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:35.599
<v Speaker 2>at best. Though, whenever she's in a hotel room. That's

76
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.080
<v Speaker 2>what's going in the scene. Oh yeah, just say it,

77
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:42.560
<v Speaker 2>Just say it, Diane writes, I've got a golden podcast.

78
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Do it right, I've got a golden podcast.

79
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Who needs a Wonka bar when you can have this

80
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:53.879
<v Speaker 2>podcast as a prize instead. I'm not sure when I

81
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:57.479
<v Speaker 2>last saw a recent movie. I love the hilarious recaps

82
00:03:57.479 --> 00:04:00.360
<v Speaker 2>and analysis of movies from my youth. I love Paul

83
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:03.199
<v Speaker 2>and Erica, even though they don't share my affinity for

84
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:09.599
<v Speaker 2>I've got a golden tick and song. Wonka is my

85
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:12.960
<v Speaker 2>favorite slot machine to play, and the song makes my

86
00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:16.160
<v Speaker 2>heart sore when the Opa Loompa feature is activated.

87
00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:17.160
<v Speaker 1>That's so specific.

88
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:21.240
<v Speaker 2>I love this person so much. Diane, you're the best.

89
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Diane. Are you in Atlantic City or Vegas?

90
00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:25.959
<v Speaker 2>You're in Oh? I want her to be in Atlantic City.

91
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:28.160
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to be an Atlantic City friend. I wanted

92
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:30.680
<v Speaker 2>to be a Jersey girl, but it could this could

93
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:31.680
<v Speaker 2>be I'm in love.

94
00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:33.399
<v Speaker 1>We're the Jersey Girl.

95
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:38.560
<v Speaker 2>Ye, no joke. I was going to open the top

96
00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:40.800
<v Speaker 2>of this episode with Dancing in the Dark. I love

97
00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:43.600
<v Speaker 2>that song and I don't have it in me straight.

98
00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:45.920
<v Speaker 2>I started. I've started to do the Springsteen voice. I

99
00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:46.680
<v Speaker 2>was like, I don't have it.

100
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:49.879
<v Speaker 1>I don't have it. Not today, Not today, Satan, not today.

101
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:53.040
<v Speaker 1>We have one more review for today. This is from

102
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:56.800
<v Speaker 1>short Worker, and they write love it. I really enjoyed

103
00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:59.360
<v Speaker 1>this podcast. I was hooked by the episode on Willy

104
00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Wonka and the Factory. I love the banter, and even

105
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:04.600
<v Speaker 1>though there is some talk that is off topic, it's

106
00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:07.480
<v Speaker 1>not too much. Some other podcasts been half the show

107
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:09.759
<v Speaker 1>or more talking about politics, which is annoying.

108
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:13.360
<v Speaker 2>We only spend about five minutes talking about politics.

109
00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:14.360
<v Speaker 1>And then we become too depressed and move on.

110
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:16.680
<v Speaker 2>And then we move on. I don't think anyone's like,

111
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:18.000
<v Speaker 2>wonder what their thought is.

112
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:19.680
<v Speaker 1>That's my that's my take on it. I'm like, no

113
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:21.319
<v Speaker 1>one's listening to this and be like they might be

114
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:23.480
<v Speaker 1>like they might be getting getting for both sides.

115
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:25.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, who knows. Maybe they're fair and balanced.

116
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:30.480
<v Speaker 1>So I appreciate the funny back and forth and for

117
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:32.839
<v Speaker 1>the great review of the movie. Thank you for being great.

118
00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:36.000
<v Speaker 1>You have a subscriber for life. Ah well, this this

119
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:38.639
<v Speaker 1>does put me off Presidential Movie Month because I don't

120
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:39.800
<v Speaker 1>want to upset short Worker.

121
00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:41.839
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna, yeah, I was gonna suggest we do

122
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:42.959
<v Speaker 2>right wing as.

123
00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:47.959
<v Speaker 1>Possible movie by Canal legislators that work month. Oh wait,

124
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:48.600
<v Speaker 1>there's no movies.

125
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:52.319
<v Speaker 2>There's no movie. Aaron Sorkin wrote something.

126
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:57.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure at some point some fantasy short worker. Diane

127
00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:00.439
<v Speaker 1>five one seventy nine, Thank you so much that you

128
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:02.800
<v Speaker 1>both love Willie Wanka and the Chocolate Factory. We can

129
00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:05.360
<v Speaker 1>we can place about where we are in reading these reviews,

130
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:08.319
<v Speaker 1>because apparently these came out right after we did Willy

131
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:09.319
<v Speaker 1>Wank on the Chocolate.

132
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:11.560
<v Speaker 2>Factory on the podcast, like what like five seven years.

133
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:13.959
<v Speaker 1>Ago something like that. I don't know. Time has no meaning.

134
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:16.160
<v Speaker 1>If you would like a that age bel tope bag,

135
00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:18.839
<v Speaker 1>please go ahead, give us a shout out, let us

136
00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:20.759
<v Speaker 1>know it's is you, and I'll send it off for you. Erica.

137
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:25.079
<v Speaker 1>What is the dance movie that we are first doing

138
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:26.040
<v Speaker 1>for this month?

139
00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:29.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, today's film, you guys. Today's film is

140
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:34.319
<v Speaker 2>the two thousand and one Coming of age drama dance

141
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:37.240
<v Speaker 2>slash dance film Save the Last Dance.

142
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:40.319
<v Speaker 1>Save the Last Dance, which before we even get started to.

143
00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:43.399
<v Speaker 2>Paul was voguing. By the way, as I would say,

144
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:45.959
<v Speaker 2>I was trying so hard to pay to not break,

145
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:48.720
<v Speaker 2>but Paul was giving me the full fucking vogue and

146
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:49.800
<v Speaker 2>it was everything.

147
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:52.839
<v Speaker 1>But does that title make any sense? No, it doesn't

148
00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:53.600
<v Speaker 1>no sense.

149
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:55.920
<v Speaker 2>Right, No, that's gonna happen a lot this month. Yeah,

150
00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:57.759
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna get a lot of things that don't make

151
00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:00.480
<v Speaker 2>any fucking sense. When you try to shoehorn the world

152
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:04.480
<v Speaker 2>of dance into any logical storyline, it just doesn't. Like,

153
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:05.879
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't make any sense.

154
00:07:05.959 --> 00:07:08.879
<v Speaker 1>Yes, and Save the Last Dance. The song is so

155
00:07:08.879 --> 00:07:11.399
<v Speaker 1>so creepily threatening when you really think about it. But

156
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:16.600
<v Speaker 1>don't forget who's taken you home? Arms you're gonna be

157
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>oh d Save the Last Dance?

158
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:25.920
<v Speaker 2>I guess it? Okay, weirdo? Can I just maybe go

159
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:27.040
<v Speaker 2>home with my girlfriend? I?

160
00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:32.040
<v Speaker 1>Actually, I genuinely so much live all those.

161
00:07:31.839 --> 00:07:35.639
<v Speaker 2>Like weird, misogynistic songs from the fifties, like it just fine,

162
00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:37.319
<v Speaker 2>it's fine, whatever, it's fine.

163
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:42.319
<v Speaker 1>By the drifters, shut up, different time, all right. Save

164
00:07:42.399 --> 00:07:47.439
<v Speaker 1>the Last Dance was requested by Parker, Robin Christy, Laurie Mikey, Aaron, Danielle,

165
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.959
<v Speaker 1>Chris and Meghan Another, Laurie Miggi, Emily Ellen, Austin RuSHA,

166
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:55.920
<v Speaker 1>Mary Melissa Another, Emily Alase, another Melissa Cee end Amanda.

167
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:59.000
<v Speaker 2>This was so requested, y'all. This was the winner win

168
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.160
<v Speaker 2>Winter Chicken Dinner A deluge. Yeah.

169
00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. This movie was written by Dwayne Adler and Cheryl Edwards.

170
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:08.560
<v Speaker 1>It was directed by Thomas Carter and stars Julia Stiles,

171
00:08:08.600 --> 00:08:12.959
<v Speaker 1>Sean Patrick, Thomas, Kerry Washington, Fredro or Freedro Star. I'm

172
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:15.480
<v Speaker 1>not sure to say that first name, Bianca Lawson and

173
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Terry Kinney. I think it does bear just pointing out

174
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:21.439
<v Speaker 1>before we go on, Hm, this was directed by a

175
00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:24.160
<v Speaker 1>black man. I think that is good for everyone to know.

176
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:26.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh good, that's that is actually you know what that

177
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:27.920
<v Speaker 2>does help help?

178
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:29.000
<v Speaker 1>It helps us.

179
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:32.960
<v Speaker 2>This movie does not age as poorly as you would

180
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.200
<v Speaker 2>think given the like if you just read the logline,

181
00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:38.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm actually spoiler, I'm pretty fine with it.

182
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:40.399
<v Speaker 1>Basically, I agree, I think it. I don't know that

183
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:42.559
<v Speaker 1>age is well, but you can see all the ways

184
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:44.879
<v Speaker 1>it's really trying, and it's it's almost like that whole

185
00:08:44.919 --> 00:08:47.080
<v Speaker 1>thing where like friends want to glad Award like friends

186
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:49.039
<v Speaker 1>at the first lesbian wedding ever on TV and now

187
00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:51.320
<v Speaker 1>we're like friends is super homophobic or like, Yeah, this

188
00:08:51.399 --> 00:08:53.279
<v Speaker 1>movie was definitely a step forward.

189
00:08:53.399 --> 00:08:54.759
<v Speaker 2>It was pushing the needle.

190
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:57.440
<v Speaker 1>In representation and it should be celebrated in honor for that,

191
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>even if some things make me want to curl up

192
00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:00.919
<v Speaker 1>and die when I hear them.

193
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:04.320
<v Speaker 2>Now, yeah, some of it is so like retrograde, but

194
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:07.720
<v Speaker 2>also at the same time, they're like trying something. Hey man,

195
00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:09.879
<v Speaker 2>you've got to get a movie through the studio system. Exactly,

196
00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:13.879
<v Speaker 2>it's not easy. Carrie Washington was working as a substitute

197
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:17.559
<v Speaker 2>teacher when she booked Save the Last Dance. That's amazing.

198
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:20.200
<v Speaker 2>I love that. Can you imagine, like, Carrie Washington, is

199
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:23.679
<v Speaker 2>your is like English sub for today? You know? She tried,

200
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.919
<v Speaker 2>she was. She wasn't like, let's watch the movie. She

201
00:09:27.000 --> 00:09:28.960
<v Speaker 2>was like, what chapter of Little Women are you on?

202
00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:30.519
<v Speaker 2>Open your books? Were getting into it?

203
00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:34.080
<v Speaker 1>She didn't when nature calls to her summer school classes.

204
00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:37.000
<v Speaker 2>That was not, by the way, a substitute teacher. That

205
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:40.200
<v Speaker 2>was the teacher teacher, that was the main ass teacher.

206
00:09:40.759 --> 00:09:43.600
<v Speaker 1>Remain's one of my favorite stories. I will bring it

207
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:44.720
<v Speaker 1>up every chance I get.

208
00:09:45.159 --> 00:09:48.080
<v Speaker 2>She apparently made so little money on this job on

209
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:50.159
<v Speaker 2>Dave the Last Dance, and she had to go back

210
00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:54.399
<v Speaker 2>to uh substitute teaching after the film finished. She did, however,

211
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:57.559
<v Speaker 2>switch to elementary school subbing, as she had high school

212
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:01.360
<v Speaker 2>students showing up to her classes to quote unquote watch

213
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:06.759
<v Speaker 2>Shanil teach French. Excellent, excellent, everything about this.

214
00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:10.080
<v Speaker 1>Every high school student who did that kudos well done.

215
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:12.320
<v Speaker 2>Also, of course that bitch top French. Of course she

216
00:10:12.399 --> 00:10:14.639
<v Speaker 2>did Washington, You magnificent woman.

217
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:17.919
<v Speaker 1>Erica Save the Last Dance has a fifty four percent

218
00:10:17.919 --> 00:10:21.080
<v Speaker 1>critical rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a fifty nine percent

219
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:24.519
<v Speaker 1>audience score, and has a fifty eight percent critical rating

220
00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:26.039
<v Speaker 1>on Cherry Picks.

221
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:28.639
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a little more enjoyable than a fifty

222
00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:31.360
<v Speaker 2>nine percent. Look, I get it. Dance movies are not

223
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:34.320
<v Speaker 2>for everyone, sure, and I am deeply in the pocket

224
00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:37.600
<v Speaker 2>of big dance. So like, honestly, you give me a

225
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:40.240
<v Speaker 2>few good dance scenes and I'm happy. I'm happy like

226
00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:40.960
<v Speaker 2>like a pig and shit.

227
00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:42.960
<v Speaker 1>So it made you happy in this movie because I

228
00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:45.200
<v Speaker 1>didn't think that, you know what it was?

229
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:48.200
<v Speaker 2>Honestly, truly, it wasn't even that like the dancing was

230
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:50.960
<v Speaker 2>so good because it wasn't like a step up situation.

231
00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Well what could be? Because step up is special.

232
00:10:53.720 --> 00:10:56.240
<v Speaker 2>Because step up films are excellent because they hire dance,

233
00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:57.600
<v Speaker 2>professional dancers.

234
00:10:57.279 --> 00:10:59.360
<v Speaker 3>And the like cannot act except for Channing Tatum and

235
00:10:59.399 --> 00:11:01.360
<v Speaker 3>then they're like, try acting and see what happens.

236
00:11:01.799 --> 00:11:03.639
<v Speaker 2>But the dance scenes are spectacular in this one. They

237
00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:07.480
<v Speaker 2>hired professional actors yea to then teach them how to dance.

238
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:10.320
<v Speaker 2>So you're right, genuinely, it's not as like it's not

239
00:11:10.440 --> 00:11:12.559
<v Speaker 2>directly in my wheelhouse. But I love the effort.

240
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I do.

241
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:15.120
<v Speaker 2>I am here for the effort absolutely.

242
00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:18.279
<v Speaker 1>I would actually say, all this is a little low

243
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:22.000
<v Speaker 1>critically like it. It's a very silly movie, but like

244
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.120
<v Speaker 1>it's one of those ones that like its heart's very

245
00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:27.159
<v Speaker 1>much in the right place. I don't know, fifty fourth

246
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:28.600
<v Speaker 1>to see feels low to me. I would probably give

247
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:30.440
<v Speaker 1>it like a sixty five percent critical rating. I'd be

248
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:34.000
<v Speaker 1>like the charm of Sean Patrick Thomas and Kerrie Washington.

249
00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:36.960
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna float a lot of stuff. And Julia Styles

250
00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:38.919
<v Speaker 1>as well, like actress or movie star. I think Julia

251
00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Styles has the movie star more than the actress in

252
00:11:40.879 --> 00:11:43.399
<v Speaker 1>this movie. I think she's a better actress now than

253
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:44.320
<v Speaker 1>she was back then.

254
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:47.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she's a little flat in this movie, but I

255
00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:50.480
<v Speaker 2>think yes, charisma either, Paul, I don't think she's either

256
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:52.919
<v Speaker 2>of those things. I love yes, charisma, I like her.

257
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:55.720
<v Speaker 2>I just she's she's never like impressed me. I have

258
00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:57.200
<v Speaker 2>to say, she's never blown me away.

259
00:11:57.360 --> 00:12:00.759
<v Speaker 1>No, But but in this movie, like I do for Sarah,

260
00:12:00.799 --> 00:12:02.600
<v Speaker 1>like there is something about her and it's not like

261
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.240
<v Speaker 1>forgive me, like the depth of performance that I do

262
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:09.639
<v Speaker 1>like root for her. Yeah, and I like her and

263
00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:11.960
<v Speaker 1>like and Sarah makes mistakes and I forgive Sarah for

264
00:12:12.000 --> 00:12:14.039
<v Speaker 1>making mistakes. So like to me, that means like there's

265
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:17.440
<v Speaker 1>an X factor in Julia styles that I just like Erica.

266
00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:19.960
<v Speaker 1>When did you first see Save the Last Dance?

267
00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:23.559
<v Speaker 2>I think probably like ten years ago, maybe.

268
00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:25.159
<v Speaker 1>Like, okay, it's kind of been a odd time.

269
00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:27.120
<v Speaker 2>Would not have seen this in the theater. I don't

270
00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:29.559
<v Speaker 2>know if I knew I was like into dance movie honestly,

271
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:31.399
<v Speaker 2>I swear to god, it's the Step Up movie that

272
00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:33.519
<v Speaker 2>like made me realize how much I love dance movies.

273
00:12:34.960 --> 00:12:37.240
<v Speaker 2>You would have thought like Footloose or Dirty Dancing for

274
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:39.639
<v Speaker 2>when I was a kid, would have done that and liked.

275
00:12:40.039 --> 00:12:41.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it was until I saw A Step

276
00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:43.679
<v Speaker 2>Up in the movie theater and I was like, oh

277
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:46.559
<v Speaker 2>my god, I want to watch every dance movie ever made.

278
00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:49.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't honestly remember why I saw it. It was

279
00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:51.919
<v Speaker 2>on TV and I was like, all right, I'll watch it,

280
00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:55.039
<v Speaker 2>and I thought it was fine. That was so stupid. Yeah,

281
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:57.039
<v Speaker 2>but in the best way. I think that's that was

282
00:12:57.080 --> 00:12:58.799
<v Speaker 2>the first and only time I'd seen it, and now

283
00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:03.320
<v Speaker 2>yesterday that was the second time. How about you.

284
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:06.360
<v Speaker 1>I had never seen this movie. Weirdly, I don't know

285
00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:09.120
<v Speaker 1>why I didn't see it. This is very much my wheelhouse.

286
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:11.080
<v Speaker 1>I should I should have seen this movie. I have

287
00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:13.759
<v Speaker 1>to presume it was like on this on the docket

288
00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:15.200
<v Speaker 1>to see and I got distracted.

289
00:13:14.840 --> 00:13:16.919
<v Speaker 2>And one, we're busy, We're busy.

290
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:17.559
<v Speaker 1>We're in college.

291
00:13:17.559 --> 00:13:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Were full aid, I'm out of college, even like we're

292
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:22.720
<v Speaker 2>full ass adults at this point. Yeah.

293
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:26.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So i'd never seen it before. I basically i'd

294
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:28.879
<v Speaker 1>seen like all of the dance scenes, just because I mean,

295
00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:30.759
<v Speaker 1>there's a there's a whole SNL sketch about the final

296
00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:32.559
<v Speaker 1>dance scene in this movie. At this point, it's pretty

297
00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:33.399
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty iconic.

298
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:34.240
<v Speaker 2>It's amazing.

299
00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:38.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And I enjoyed it by and large. Like I said,

300
00:13:38.559 --> 00:13:42.000
<v Speaker 1>there's some really cringey two thousand and one moments, but

301
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:44.759
<v Speaker 1>the movie's trying something and I respect it, and I

302
00:13:44.799 --> 00:13:47.639
<v Speaker 1>was never bored. No, it did make me wonder why

303
00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:49.879
<v Speaker 1>Sean Patrick Thomas isn't a bigger star, because I think

304
00:13:49.919 --> 00:13:53.039
<v Speaker 1>he's He and Kerry Washington, for me, were the two

305
00:13:53.039 --> 00:13:53.840
<v Speaker 1>that like popped.

306
00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:55.559
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I have a thousand percent agree.

307
00:13:55.639 --> 00:13:58.000
<v Speaker 1>I looked up his IMDb. He actually has worked very.

308
00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:00.879
<v Speaker 2>Steadily because he had had this same attorney where I

309
00:14:00.919 --> 00:14:02.679
<v Speaker 2>was like, why don't I see this guy everywhere? He's

310
00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:06.600
<v Speaker 2>so hot? Yeah, and spoiler alert, he's aged really beautiful,

311
00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:07.879
<v Speaker 2>Like he looks hot still.

312
00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's like even hotter now than he was two

313
00:14:10.039 --> 00:14:10.600
<v Speaker 1>thousand and one.

314
00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:12.879
<v Speaker 2>Get ugly or like like you're like, oh, I guess

315
00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:15.039
<v Speaker 2>you're a character actor now, buddy, Like, no, no, he's

316
00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:18.639
<v Speaker 2>still super hot. He does like like procedurals. Yeah, he

317
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:20.480
<v Speaker 2>does like TV shows that you and I don't watch,

318
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:21.559
<v Speaker 2>which is why we don't know him.

319
00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And I literally wonder. I always think when people

320
00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:25.919
<v Speaker 1>do that, they're like, you know what I have, I've

321
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:27.879
<v Speaker 1>done this. I want to be an actor, but I

322
00:14:27.960 --> 00:14:29.200
<v Speaker 1>also want to have a life and I'm going to

323
00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>go get a job where I book three procedural guest

324
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.080
<v Speaker 1>starring roles a year and like do one Hallmark movie.

325
00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:36.919
<v Speaker 2>But he was in like one I don't remember the

326
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:37.919
<v Speaker 2>name of it now, so I don't have an in

327
00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:39.440
<v Speaker 2>front of me. But he was in like one procedural

328
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:42.399
<v Speaker 2>for like two hundred episodes. Really, so he had a job.

329
00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:45.120
<v Speaker 2>Hold on, I'm going to look him up. While you're talking, Paul,

330
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:46.360
<v Speaker 2>keep going.

331
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.399
<v Speaker 1>Keep talking. I'm not even going to pretend to pay

332

334
00:14:53.039 --> 00:14:56.919
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I found it. The TV show is called The

335
00:14:57.000 --> 00:14:59.600
<v Speaker 2>District and I'm wrong. It's eighty nine episodes. That's a

336
00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:02.279
<v Speaker 2>little shit ton and it ran for like four years. Okay,

337
00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:04.039
<v Speaker 2>So like, yeah, that's what he's been doing.

338
00:15:04.039 --> 00:15:05.840
<v Speaker 1>He made his bank. He's like, I saved, I save

339
00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:07.039
<v Speaker 1>my money. I have a nest egg, I have a

00:15:12.759 --> 00:15:14.639
<v Speaker 2>Also, I didn't realize this. I didn't see this. I

343
00:15:14.639 --> 00:15:16.279
<v Speaker 2>still haven't seen this. But he was in that like

344
00:15:16.480 --> 00:15:20.519
<v Speaker 2>Macbeth that you loved, the Cohen brother remember brother, It's

345
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:22.080
<v Speaker 2>like one Cohen Brother made that one.

<v Speaker 1>only person you need to be is yourself.

<v Speaker 1>it yet, and i'd like to get your live reaction

364
00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:13.960

00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:17.639
<v Speaker 2>So excited, Have we ready, kids, Here we go. Sarah

366
00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:20.080
<v Speaker 2>wants to be a ballerina, but her dreams are cut

367
00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:21.919
<v Speaker 2>short by the sudden death of her mother.

368
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:23.759
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so far, so far, so good.

369
00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:26.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's correct. That is what happens in the film.

370
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:29.000
<v Speaker 2>She moves in with her father, who she has not

371
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:34.559
<v Speaker 2>seen for a long time in Chicago. Oh no, I

<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry there from the top of the sentence. Give

374
00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:41.360

<v Speaker 2>She moves in with her father, who she has not

376
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:50.919
<v Speaker 2>seen for a long time in Chicago, mainly the ghetto.

379
00:16:58.879 --> 00:17:03.039
<v Speaker 2>the ghetto. Are we Are we comfortable saying ghetto?

380
00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:05.240
<v Speaker 1>I am not. I will only be quoting it.

381
00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:07.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't feel like this is a ghetto. I feel

382
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:09.440
<v Speaker 2>like this was written by someone who does not understand

383
00:17:09.480 --> 00:17:13.400
<v Speaker 2>what like working class families live. Like, yeah, I'm like,

384
00:17:13.480 --> 00:17:17.279
<v Speaker 2>they look like my apartment building, you guys. She gets

385
00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:23.400
<v Speaker 2>transferred to a new school where she is the only white.

386
00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:27.240
<v Speaker 1>She was just reading blind. She didn't read on that one,

387
00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:29.279
<v Speaker 1>and I.

388
00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:32.359
<v Speaker 2>Tried to fix it. My brain was like, there's another

389
00:17:32.400 --> 00:17:36.079
<v Speaker 2>word that we're missing here. I'm gonna read it as written.

390
00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:40.000
<v Speaker 2>She gets transferred to a new school where she is

391
00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:45.880
<v Speaker 2>the only white there, not person, not girl, not transfer,

392
00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:51.000
<v Speaker 2>just white, the only white there. And no, she it's

393
00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:52.880
<v Speaker 2>not true. There's like four other white kids in this

394
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:53.640
<v Speaker 2>school at least.

395
00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes, they make a point of having a white table

396
00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:56.839
<v Speaker 1>in the lunch room.

397
00:17:56.960 --> 00:18:00.640
<v Speaker 2>We're like five, that's true. I really did love that though.

398
00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:02.640
<v Speaker 2>How many fucking high schools in this country have a

399
00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:06.160
<v Speaker 2>black lunch table? Like, yeah, they should have a white

400
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:06.720
<v Speaker 2>lunch table.

401
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:10.799
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Eric, I'm gonna give you this next sentence is amaze.

402
00:18:10.839 --> 00:18:12.799
<v Speaker 1>I want you to really try to read the words

403
00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:15.440
<v Speaker 1>on the page. Don't fix them, read the words as

404
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:18.519
<v Speaker 1>they are. Her life, oh.

405
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:21.279
<v Speaker 2>God, Okay. Her life takes a turn for the better

406
00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:31.319
<v Speaker 2>when she is friends with Shanil period new sentence later, Comma,

407
00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:34.759
<v Speaker 2>she falls in love with her brother, Comma, Derek.

408
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:35.759
<v Speaker 1>Now the problem with.

409
00:18:35.720 --> 00:18:37.440
<v Speaker 2>This is tell them what she's calling in love with

410
00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:38.640
<v Speaker 2>her own brother.

411
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Don't worry, listeners, there's no incest in this movie.

412
00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:47.359
<v Speaker 2>And I know this was written before AI, so we

413
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:51.119
<v Speaker 2>cannot blame the robots for this. O human person wrote

414
00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:55.480
<v Speaker 2>this actual synopsis I've never seen, and I've forgive me

415
00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:58.440
<v Speaker 2>for using this phrase. A magical Negro who is also

416
00:18:58.519 --> 00:18:59.960
<v Speaker 2>the main character of the film.

417
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:01.559
<v Speaker 1>It's true.

418
00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:04.440
<v Speaker 2>He is both the main character or one of two,

419
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:09.119
<v Speaker 2>and the magical black person helping the white person. It's

420
00:19:09.279 --> 00:19:11.960
<v Speaker 2>it is the mental gymnastics they must have done to

421
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:15.119
<v Speaker 2>create the character of Derek. I understand it, like they

422
00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:17.799
<v Speaker 2>don't want him to have a single flaw because like

423
00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:21.000
<v Speaker 2>the America is what it is, and so they don't

424
00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:23.839
<v Speaker 2>want the black male character to have a single goddamn flaw,

425
00:19:23.880 --> 00:19:26.799
<v Speaker 2>and so he is perfect in every single way. Yeah,

426
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:28.759
<v Speaker 2>and to the point where he's almost not human.

427
00:19:29.039 --> 00:19:32.119
<v Speaker 1>I have another actual synopsis for you and the listeners.

428
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:37.400
<v Speaker 1>Does this movie know there's a difference between dancing hip

429
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:40.440
<v Speaker 1>hop and dancing to hip hop?

430
00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:41.680
<v Speaker 2>No?

431
00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:44.119
<v Speaker 1>No, there's no difference in this.

432
00:19:43.759 --> 00:19:45.359
<v Speaker 2>He barely understands what ballet is.

433
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:52.720
<v Speaker 1>It's barely barely. All right, listeners, stick around. We're gonna

<v Speaker 1>All right, So Save the Last Dance opens on a

449
00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:46.519
<v Speaker 1>train where Sarah Johnson played by Julia Stiles, is sitting

450
00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:49.079
<v Speaker 1>amongst your bags and staring out a window. She's the

451
00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:49.920
<v Speaker 1>girl on the train, y'all.

452
00:20:50.119 --> 00:20:51.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she's forlorn.

453
00:20:51.400 --> 00:20:54.279
<v Speaker 1>I would say, I'm gonna, I'm actually just gonna stop

454
00:20:54.359 --> 00:20:55.720
<v Speaker 1>right here. I'm gonna I'm gonna put a pin in

455
00:20:55.799 --> 00:20:57.880
<v Speaker 1>everything right now, right away. I will admit this is

456
00:20:58.079 --> 00:21:00.799
<v Speaker 1>very East Coast count content was about to what I'm

457
00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:06.160
<v Speaker 1>about to say. I saw this, I immediately presumed New

458
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Jersey transit.

459
00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:09.960
<v Speaker 2>I will admit that, okay, and then that's not crazy.

460
00:21:10.039 --> 00:21:12.720
<v Speaker 1>It's not crazy, FYI, listeners, They're not New Jersey. This

461
00:21:12.799 --> 00:21:15.559
<v Speaker 1>is Chicago. This entire movie takes place within Chicago and

462
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:18.519
<v Speaker 1>the Chicago suburbs. But we're about to see her flash

463
00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:22.799
<v Speaker 1>back to a Juilliard audition, and I assumed for far

464
00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:26.200
<v Speaker 1>longer than I should have, that this movie was taking

465
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:30.000
<v Speaker 1>place in New York City, and the amount of notes

466
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:33.519
<v Speaker 1>I took of being like, that's not New York, that's Chicago.

467
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:38.240
<v Speaker 1>They're doing Chicago accents before I presume to question my

468
00:21:38.319 --> 00:21:40.759
<v Speaker 1>own assumption, Oh to where they were?

469
00:21:41.240 --> 00:21:43.119
<v Speaker 2>You know what? That is the journey one's supposed to

470
00:21:43.160 --> 00:21:45.319
<v Speaker 2>take while watching this film. Now, you did it wrong,

471
00:21:46.279 --> 00:21:48.799
<v Speaker 2>but you still took the journey I did. You were like,

472
00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:51.079
<v Speaker 2>you know what, let me challenge my own assumptions about

473
00:21:51.119 --> 00:21:52.720
<v Speaker 2>what I think the world should look like.

474
00:21:54.839 --> 00:21:58.680
<v Speaker 1>So Sarah is sitting on the train. A very kind

475
00:21:58.720 --> 00:22:01.319
<v Speaker 1>woman comes up. She asks if is a seat taken?

476
00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:03.880
<v Speaker 1>Sarah says no. She moves her bags, Girl, put your

477
00:22:03.920 --> 00:22:06.400
<v Speaker 1>lugs on the legg of track, and the woman notices

478
00:22:06.440 --> 00:22:09.400
<v Speaker 1>a ballet magazine sitting atop her things, and she says, oh,

479
00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:14.119
<v Speaker 1>do you dance? And Sarah says, I used to Jesus

480
00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:14.559
<v Speaker 1>Christy And.

481
00:22:14.519 --> 00:22:17.440
<v Speaker 2>The woman's like, okay, I guess we're not having a conversation.

482
00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:22.160
<v Speaker 2>Never mind, I've never seen anyone know and someone it before,

483
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:23.240
<v Speaker 2>but okay.

484
00:22:23.480 --> 00:22:26.359
<v Speaker 1>So Sarah continues to stare out the window as we

485
00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:31.079
<v Speaker 1>flash back to the extremely recent past. I cannot stress

486
00:22:31.160 --> 00:22:33.680
<v Speaker 1>enough how what is about to happen could not have

487
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:38.240
<v Speaker 1>taken place more than a month ago. Yeah, we learned

488
00:22:38.279 --> 00:22:40.279
<v Speaker 1>that Sarah used to live in the Chicago suburbs with

489
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:43.880
<v Speaker 1>her supportive single mother. She was best friends with this girl, Lindsay,

490
00:22:43.960 --> 00:22:46.279
<v Speaker 1>who is an extremely prayer forward young woman.

491
00:22:46.519 --> 00:22:49.880
<v Speaker 2>That actress is doing the Lord's work. I'm just gonna

492
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:52.480
<v Speaker 2>say say because Lindsay has like three lines in the movie.

493
00:22:52.519 --> 00:22:54.960
<v Speaker 2>They are all the lines of like the white girl

494
00:22:54.960 --> 00:22:58.240
<v Speaker 2>who does not understand black culture at all, and she

495
00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:02.279
<v Speaker 2>leans hard to them and they're funny every single time.

496
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:04.720
<v Speaker 2>She's like, the movie's like punching bag a little bit.

497
00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Lindsay. At one point, she's with Sarah and Sarah's

498
00:23:06.920 --> 00:23:08.480
<v Speaker 1>about to go to a Juilliard audition. It's like her

499
00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:11.000
<v Speaker 1>last day in school, and she like grabs her hand

500
00:23:11.359 --> 00:23:13.480
<v Speaker 1>and she starts She's like, I'll pray, I'll pray, and

501
00:23:13.519 --> 00:23:16.119
<v Speaker 1>she starts like loudly praying in the public school hallway,

502
00:23:16.240 --> 00:23:19.359
<v Speaker 1>and the look on Julia Styles's face excellent, excellent.

503
00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:21.359
<v Speaker 2>It's a perfect look of like I'm gonna let you

504
00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:23.559
<v Speaker 2>do this. It seems important to you, but I am

505
00:23:23.599 --> 00:23:26.920
<v Speaker 2>mortified and confused. Yeah exactly, which again, like I'm like,

506
00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:28.920
<v Speaker 2>has this the first time Lindsay's done this?

507
00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:31.799
<v Speaker 1>It's definitely not. Lindsay's way too comfortable for it to

508
00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:35.039
<v Speaker 1>be the first time. So we learned that Sarah's dream

509
00:23:35.079 --> 00:23:37.799
<v Speaker 1>was to attend Juilliard for dance, and her big audition

510
00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:40.440
<v Speaker 1>is coming up. Her mother promised to take her, but

511
00:23:40.519 --> 00:23:42.880
<v Speaker 1>she wound up needing to work on that day, and Sarah,

512
00:23:42.920 --> 00:23:45.480
<v Speaker 1>being a seventeen or eighteen year old, girls like, come on, mom,

513
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:48.000
<v Speaker 1>you promised, and she can't go. So she gets herself

514
00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:50.599
<v Speaker 1>to the audition and we see her mother like putting

515
00:23:50.640 --> 00:23:52.359
<v Speaker 1>her on the bus and saying I will be there

516
00:23:52.359 --> 00:23:54.480
<v Speaker 1>before you take the stage. Sarah's waiting for her mother

517
00:23:54.559 --> 00:23:56.720
<v Speaker 1>in the holding area, but she's called in before her

518
00:23:56.759 --> 00:24:00.799
<v Speaker 1>mother arrives. She starts to dance. Okay, I'm just gonna

519
00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:03.920
<v Speaker 1>say really quickly, U huh. Julia Styles does a lot

520
00:24:03.960 --> 00:24:05.759
<v Speaker 1>of her own dancing in this, not all of it,

521
00:24:05.799 --> 00:24:08.440
<v Speaker 1>but a lot of it, And from what I read,

522
00:24:08.480 --> 00:24:11.680
<v Speaker 1>she took like an intense two months of like dance

523
00:24:11.720 --> 00:24:13.839
<v Speaker 1>training to try to look as good as she possibly could.

524
00:24:13.880 --> 00:24:14.880
<v Speaker 2>Two months, that's it.

525
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:15.680
<v Speaker 1>Two months.

526
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:16.519
<v Speaker 2>That's not enough time.

527
00:24:16.839 --> 00:24:20.640
<v Speaker 1>It's simply impossible. If you if Mikhail Barishnikov had never

528
00:24:20.759 --> 00:24:23.920
<v Speaker 1>danced before and you put him in two months of training,

529
00:24:24.079 --> 00:24:26.440
<v Speaker 1>he would not look like a professional dancer after two months.

530
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:27.920
<v Speaker 1>That is a lifelong pursuit.

531
00:24:28.279 --> 00:24:30.599
<v Speaker 2>Like, they should have black swand this and just put

532
00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:33.359
<v Speaker 2>another fucking dancer in every time they like cut away

533
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:33.920
<v Speaker 2>from her face.

534
00:24:34.039 --> 00:24:35.039
<v Speaker 1>Yes, they should have just done it.

535
00:24:35.079 --> 00:24:37.799
<v Speaker 2>They should like and that's fine. Like, honestly, that doesn't

536
00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:40.920
<v Speaker 2>bother me when movies do that. No, it's very difficult

537
00:24:40.920 --> 00:24:43.920
<v Speaker 2>to find a ballet dancers who can act. Might I

538
00:24:44.119 --> 00:24:45.839
<v Speaker 2>show you all centricity stage?

539
00:24:45.960 --> 00:24:49.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Zoe Saldana was an actor who used to dance.

540
00:24:49.400 --> 00:24:52.599
<v Speaker 2>Ballet, Yes, and you can see that. And then the

541
00:24:52.599 --> 00:24:54.680
<v Speaker 2>rest of her castmates excellent dancers.

542
00:24:58.839 --> 00:25:01.880
<v Speaker 1>So Sarah is dancing, and we cut between her audition

543
00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:05.039
<v Speaker 1>and her mother speeding through the streets of Chicago to

544
00:25:05.079 --> 00:25:08.240
<v Speaker 1>meet her. Sarah stumbles in her audition just as her

545
00:25:08.240 --> 00:25:12.240
<v Speaker 1>mother gets into a fatal car accident. We do meet

546
00:25:12.279 --> 00:25:14.599
<v Speaker 1>the auditioner here and he does not know that her

547
00:25:14.599 --> 00:25:15.359
<v Speaker 1>mother just died.

548
00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:18.799
<v Speaker 2>But also this actor again, Lord's work because he has

549
00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:21.880
<v Speaker 2>two scenes and the direction is I need you to

550
00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:25.200
<v Speaker 2>be the biggest bitch ever. And he's like done.

551
00:25:25.279 --> 00:25:27.480
<v Speaker 1>He's like, I know exactly what facial hair to wear

552
00:25:27.519 --> 00:25:27.799
<v Speaker 1>for that.

553
00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, He's like, I know the look I want to have.

554
00:25:29.799 --> 00:25:31.599
<v Speaker 2>I know this sneer I want to have in my

555
00:25:31.680 --> 00:25:33.920
<v Speaker 2>voice when I talk to a child. Yep, I just

556
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:35.920
<v Speaker 2>really quickly want to have a little PSA right here

557
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:37.440
<v Speaker 2>at the top of this episode. For those of you

558
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:39.640
<v Speaker 2>who are still in high school, or for parents of

559
00:25:39.759 --> 00:25:42.960
<v Speaker 2>kids who are still in high school, considering like post

560
00:25:43.039 --> 00:25:47.240
<v Speaker 2>high school dreams, please have a safety school. Juilliard cannot

561
00:25:47.240 --> 00:25:50.480
<v Speaker 2>be her only option because bitch, you're not good enough,

562
00:25:50.519 --> 00:25:52.720
<v Speaker 2>and it's so awkward to watch her and be like,

563
00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:58.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to Juilliard. No, you're not. Juilliard is very hard.

564
00:25:57.880 --> 00:25:59.960
<v Speaker 1>To get into, famously difficult.

565
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:02.799
<v Speaker 2>There are so many dance schools that'll take you, like

566
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:05.759
<v Speaker 2>or like colleges that have a dance department, and you

567
00:26:05.759 --> 00:26:09.599
<v Speaker 2>can also study to be a veterinarian justin King like girl.

568
00:26:09.920 --> 00:26:11.519
<v Speaker 2>So Sarah arrives.

569
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:14.039
<v Speaker 1>In Chicago mainly the ghetto.

570
00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:18.839
<v Speaker 2>Mainly the ghetto, the ghetto. Oh my god, it's so

571
00:26:19.480 --> 00:26:23.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm so uncomfortable, like I'm sweating saying those like what

572
00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:27.880
<v Speaker 2>is that? Anyway? Moving on, she has met at the

573
00:26:27.920 --> 00:26:31.720
<v Speaker 2>bus stop by her jazz musician father Roy played by

574
00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Terry Kenny Field just in left like Sam Rock well

575
00:26:34.240 --> 00:26:36.519
<v Speaker 2>that For a minute, I was like, is this is that? No?

576
00:26:36.640 --> 00:26:38.519
<v Speaker 1>Never mind, I want to say something right now.

577
00:26:38.759 --> 00:26:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Uh huh.

578
00:26:39.519 --> 00:26:42.240
<v Speaker 1>What this movie does to Terry Kenny is not fair

579
00:26:43.000 --> 00:26:48.960
<v Speaker 1>because they they want him to be the guy who

580
00:26:49.039 --> 00:26:50.880
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a bad guy, but wasn't ready to be a

581
00:26:50.880 --> 00:26:52.640
<v Speaker 1>father and wanted to be a musician and was a

582
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:55.400
<v Speaker 1>shitty father, but is a good guy fundamentally, Yeah, and

583
00:26:55.400 --> 00:26:57.680
<v Speaker 1>they want him to learn to be a good father

584
00:26:58.559 --> 00:27:02.079
<v Speaker 1>over the course of this movie. But because this is

585
00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:04.079
<v Speaker 1>how they've introduced him, and they give him the line

586
00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:06.400
<v Speaker 1>that's like, oh sorry, I couldn't stick around after the funeral,

587
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:10.119
<v Speaker 1>had to get back for a gig. He it's impossible,

588
00:27:10.200 --> 00:27:13.279
<v Speaker 1>he can't climb this mountain. He didn't go pick his

589
00:27:13.400 --> 00:27:16.200
<v Speaker 1>daughter up and drive her back to or even go

590
00:27:16.279 --> 00:27:18.359
<v Speaker 1>like take her bags and take the train back with

591
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:22.200
<v Speaker 1>her to meet him in Chicago Mainland, the ghetto. Mainly,

592
00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:26.079
<v Speaker 1>they have so over peppered the sauce on this guy's

593
00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:27.839
<v Speaker 1>a dick that. I don't think they can get it back.

594
00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:29.759
<v Speaker 1>They need some acid or dairy and the sauce to

595
00:27:29.880 --> 00:27:31.559
<v Speaker 1>like take out the pepper.

596
00:27:31.759 --> 00:27:33.599
<v Speaker 2>I didn't put together the fact that you're right, he

597
00:27:33.640 --> 00:27:36.359
<v Speaker 2>missed he like left right after the funeral for like

598
00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:36.920
<v Speaker 2>a gig.

599
00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:38.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Like who's shut down the house?

600
00:27:38.680 --> 00:27:42.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean honestly though, like seeing how he's how he's living, Yeah,

601
00:27:43.000 --> 00:27:46.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm guessing like he needed that money from that gig.

602
00:27:46.279 --> 00:27:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Like he's like, well, I had to pay the rent,

603
00:27:48.640 --> 00:27:51.480
<v Speaker 2>so I needed that fucking gig. Yeah, who shut down

604
00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:51.960
<v Speaker 2>that house?

605
00:27:52.200 --> 00:27:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

606
00:27:52.519 --> 00:27:55.200
<v Speaker 2>What happened to that house? Maybe they were renting also

607
00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:55.920
<v Speaker 2>in this.

608
00:27:55.920 --> 00:27:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Possibly, but like whatever, there must be some money that

609
00:27:59.000 --> 00:28:01.599
<v Speaker 1>that Sarah and you would think.

610
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:03.480
<v Speaker 2>You would think there's like an ant or something that

611
00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:06.279
<v Speaker 2>she could go yeah with a grandparent. Yeah no, no,

612
00:28:06.640 --> 00:28:08.680
<v Speaker 2>just to day. The movie's not interested in any of that.

613
00:28:08.720 --> 00:28:11.200
<v Speaker 2>There's never a line where they're like, your grandparents are

614
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:13.440
<v Speaker 2>a home, so they couldn't take you in. So Roy

615
00:28:13.519 --> 00:28:15.920
<v Speaker 2>takes Sarah to his apartment. Look, it looks like a

616
00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:18.440
<v Speaker 2>dude who's been living there for thirty years and doesn't

617
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:20.759
<v Speaker 2>know how to do anything. He has one bedroom that's

618
00:28:20.799 --> 00:28:24.480
<v Speaker 2>set up and another room. I don't understand what this

619
00:28:24.519 --> 00:28:25.119
<v Speaker 2>other room is.

620
00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I think he has a two bedroom apartment. And because

621
00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:30.039
<v Speaker 1>he's a dude, he just like threw garbage in the

622
00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:32.480
<v Speaker 1>other room and so he's never like he never set

623
00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:34.680
<v Speaker 1>it up. He probably got cheap because the room, like

624
00:28:34.720 --> 00:28:37.279
<v Speaker 1>the paint doesn't finished. It's not just this brick.

625
00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:40.799
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna say it's exposed. It's not exposed breaking

626
00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:42.880
<v Speaker 2>a hot way in a fun way. It is plaster

627
00:28:43.000 --> 00:28:46.319
<v Speaker 2>has fallen down, yeah, and like has never been fixed.

628
00:28:46.359 --> 00:28:49.279
<v Speaker 2>It's not painted. It looks like there's holes in the floor,

629
00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:51.680
<v Speaker 2>like where mice can get through. He even has a

630
00:28:51.720 --> 00:28:53.920
<v Speaker 2>line where he's like, well, you know, the rent's cheap

631
00:28:53.920 --> 00:28:54.759
<v Speaker 2>and the mice you're friendly.

632
00:28:54.880 --> 00:28:55.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, in this.

633
00:28:55.319 --> 00:28:58.359
<v Speaker 2>Apartment, I was like, I hate everything about this. Poor Sarah.

634
00:28:58.400 --> 00:29:01.119
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, So he basically has his daughter sleep.

635
00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:02.759
<v Speaker 1>On the couch, yeah, on the pull out.

636
00:29:02.839 --> 00:29:05.720
<v Speaker 2>And again I'm like, you had a month, buddy, Yeah,

637
00:29:05.799 --> 00:29:07.799
<v Speaker 2>she passed away a month ago. You've had it. Even

638
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:10.440
<v Speaker 2>if you only had two weeks. You could get a mattress,

639
00:29:10.839 --> 00:29:12.839
<v Speaker 2>you could get a bed, like you can try.

640
00:29:13.240 --> 00:29:16.000
<v Speaker 1>So Roy takes Sarah to her new high school. He's like, oh,

641
00:29:16.039 --> 00:29:17.519
<v Speaker 1>do you want me to come in with you? She's like,

642
00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:21.480
<v Speaker 1>I got it, don't worry about it, Erica. Something is

643
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:24.599
<v Speaker 1>different about this high school from the high school that

644
00:29:24.599 --> 00:29:26.319
<v Speaker 1>we saw her in earlier. I can't put my finger

645
00:29:26.359 --> 00:29:26.599
<v Speaker 1>on it.

646
00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Have you ever been the only white person in a room?

647
00:29:29.359 --> 00:29:31.400
<v Speaker 1>I had been on the only white person on a

648
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:34.799
<v Speaker 1>subway car. Oh, okay, like in college at one point,

649
00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:38.039
<v Speaker 1>like I'm going somewhere in Brooklyn or something and like

650
00:29:38.279 --> 00:29:39.240
<v Speaker 1>looking around at me, like.

651
00:29:39.240 --> 00:29:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I'm I'm the token.

652
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:43.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm the token. And it was a very like eye

653
00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:46.839
<v Speaker 1>opening experience for a kid that was like sheltered and

654
00:29:46.839 --> 00:29:50.160
<v Speaker 1>grew up in a mainly white area and like and

655
00:29:50.200 --> 00:29:52.359
<v Speaker 1>it was fine. To be clear, I wasn't terrified or anything.

656
00:29:52.359 --> 00:29:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I was just like, oh, it's is different.

657
00:29:54.079 --> 00:29:56.680
<v Speaker 2>It actually it's a I feel like it's honestly, I'm

658
00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:58.559
<v Speaker 2>not ketting an experience everyone needs to.

659
00:29:58.480 --> 00:30:01.079
<v Speaker 1>Have, absolutely at some point. It's very helpful.

660
00:30:01.160 --> 00:30:03.920
<v Speaker 2>I have put myself in that situation a couple of times.

661
00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:06.480
<v Speaker 2>Every time it's because it's not an accident, like the

662
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:08.720
<v Speaker 2>subway where I've gone to I'm like, I bet I

663
00:30:08.759 --> 00:30:12.519
<v Speaker 2>won't be the only girl at this poetry slam. I bet,

664
00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:14.319
<v Speaker 2>I bet I won't be the only white girl at

665
00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:16.559
<v Speaker 2>this jazz thing. And I'm like, oh no, I'm the

666
00:30:16.559 --> 00:30:19.720
<v Speaker 2>only white girl here and it's fine, and like I

667
00:30:19.759 --> 00:30:22.200
<v Speaker 2>always walk in being like, well, it's not a big deal,

668
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:24.839
<v Speaker 2>and it isn't obviously, but you do notice it when

669
00:30:24.920 --> 00:30:29.359
<v Speaker 2>you're a odd person out and it's it's absolutely the

670
00:30:29.400 --> 00:30:32.680
<v Speaker 2>most eye opening experience. I cannot stress this enough. Folks,

671
00:30:32.720 --> 00:30:35.640
<v Speaker 2>if you are a white person in America, put yourself

672
00:30:35.640 --> 00:30:38.920
<v Speaker 2>in a situation where you are one or two of

673
00:30:38.960 --> 00:30:41.880
<v Speaker 2>the only white people in the space, just for fun,

674
00:30:42.039 --> 00:30:45.160
<v Speaker 2>just to try it out. I'm telling you, Like and again,

675
00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:47.160
<v Speaker 2>literally no one pays attention to.

676
00:30:47.119 --> 00:30:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Me, no one cares.

677
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Everyone ignored me. And every time, like I've been in

678
00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:54.000
<v Speaker 2>that situation like five or six times, because I keep

679
00:30:54.000 --> 00:30:55.319
<v Speaker 2>putting myself in that situation.

680
00:30:55.720 --> 00:30:58.799
<v Speaker 1>Stop booking yourself into the black, queer, lesbian spaces.

681
00:30:58.920 --> 00:31:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Ericat I'm gonna gonna win at the Apollo one time.

682
00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:08.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna It's crazy how you immediately clock it. And

683
00:31:09.039 --> 00:31:13.319
<v Speaker 2>of course, like my black friends were all like duh, yeah, duh,

684
00:31:13.359 --> 00:31:15.519
<v Speaker 2>you fucking dumb cunt, and I'm like, yeah, I know,

685
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:17.880
<v Speaker 2>but until you live it, you don't realize. You don't

686
00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:20.680
<v Speaker 2>realize how like odd it is and how eye opening

687
00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:22.680
<v Speaker 2>it is. By the way, poetry slams are fucking lit,

688
00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:24.240
<v Speaker 2>So do just do that.

689
00:31:24.359 --> 00:31:27.519
<v Speaker 1>All right? So Sarah, who seems to be a pretty

690
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:30.359
<v Speaker 1>self asshored kid, gets to the office. She's guided to

691
00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:32.400
<v Speaker 1>her first class, which turns out to be English. I

692
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:36.799
<v Speaker 1>would like to give kudos to the filmmaker for making

693
00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:38.720
<v Speaker 1>this a rowdy high school.

694
00:31:39.079 --> 00:31:41.160
<v Speaker 2>Yes, we are not getting a lean on me situation

695
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:44.720
<v Speaker 2>where the high school is like a literal warzone, like

696
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:46.079
<v Speaker 2>like literal war zone.

697
00:31:46.200 --> 00:31:49.279
<v Speaker 1>It is a very normal high school where the kids

698
00:31:49.319 --> 00:31:51.359
<v Speaker 1>are boisterous in the hallways, as they aren't all kinds

699
00:31:51.359 --> 00:31:52.039
<v Speaker 1>of high schools.

700
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:52.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

701
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:52.799
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

702
00:31:53.000 --> 00:31:55.359
<v Speaker 2>By the way, this high school, even though it's called

703
00:31:55.400 --> 00:31:58.440
<v Speaker 2>Wheatlee High in the film, it is supposed to be

704
00:31:58.680 --> 00:32:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Wendell Phillips Academy, which is a real high school in Chicago.

705
00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:04.480
<v Speaker 2>And because there's a moment where she's walking through the

706
00:32:04.519 --> 00:32:06.759
<v Speaker 2>halls and she sees like a picture of like Dinah

707
00:32:06.839 --> 00:32:09.359
<v Speaker 2>Washington and Marla Gibbs and Sam Cook who all went

708
00:32:09.400 --> 00:32:11.200
<v Speaker 2>to this high school. And I was like googling it.

709
00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:12.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, did they really all go to the same

710
00:32:12.599 --> 00:32:15.759
<v Speaker 2>high school. They's sure as shit did, and Wendell Phillips

711
00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:19.799
<v Speaker 2>Academy had an insane number of celebrities that went there,

712
00:32:19.880 --> 00:32:22.559
<v Speaker 2>including nat King Cole. All right, like, it's a cool play,

713
00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:25.680
<v Speaker 2>but the film I should mention is not filmed there,

714
00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:29.759
<v Speaker 2>and in the movie it's called Wheatley. But apparently this

715
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:34.799
<v Speaker 2>was the idea. Yeah, the inspiration behind this high school gotcha?

716
00:32:35.240 --> 00:32:37.680
<v Speaker 1>All right, So she's in English class. She impresses the

717
00:32:37.720 --> 00:32:40.319
<v Speaker 1>teacher by giving a smart answer about in Cold Blood.

718
00:32:40.400 --> 00:32:43.079
<v Speaker 1>She talks about how Capoti mixed true crime with his imagination,

719
00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:45.440
<v Speaker 1>but then she quickly has a run in with Dereck

720
00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:49.559
<v Speaker 1>Reynolds played by Sean Patrick Thomas. He manages to outshine

721
00:32:49.599 --> 00:32:52.000
<v Speaker 1>and embarrass her for her blind spots. Right. He points

722
00:32:52.039 --> 00:32:55.200
<v Speaker 1>out that Capoti's true accomplishment was bringing crime out of

723
00:32:55.240 --> 00:32:58.640
<v Speaker 1>the ghetto and into white society, right because he said

724
00:32:58.759 --> 00:33:01.039
<v Speaker 1>black writers did the whole like mixing true crime with

725
00:33:01.039 --> 00:33:04.000
<v Speaker 1>the imagination thing already, but nobody read them, and then

726
00:33:04.039 --> 00:33:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Truman Capoti got credit for it, and she's like, people

727
00:33:06.680 --> 00:33:08.440
<v Speaker 1>read the black writers. She's like, yeah to you, and

728
00:33:08.480 --> 00:33:09.279
<v Speaker 1>she has nothing to say.

729
00:33:09.319 --> 00:33:11.000
<v Speaker 2>I would have lied, honestly.

730
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:12.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, you've got to lie that one some one calls.

731
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:14.480
<v Speaker 2>Me out that hard. I would have been like have

732
00:33:14.720 --> 00:33:17.759
<v Speaker 2>I of course yes.

733
00:33:17.680 --> 00:33:20.079
<v Speaker 1>And then skip the next class on directly to library

734
00:33:20.119 --> 00:33:24.079
<v Speaker 1>and just mainline James Baldwin the fucking.

735
00:33:23.720 --> 00:33:25.960
<v Speaker 2>Thing James Baldwin ever wrote, and be like, I know,

736
00:33:26.160 --> 00:33:30.039
<v Speaker 2>James Baldwin. Sir. Sarah heads to her locker. She puts

737
00:33:30.039 --> 00:33:32.400
<v Speaker 2>her backpack on the ground behind her, which even in

738
00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:33.960
<v Speaker 2>my school we didn't do that.

739
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:36.759
<v Speaker 1>Even if you're not in a place where it's you know,

740
00:33:36.839 --> 00:33:38.759
<v Speaker 1>it might be stolen. Bitch, that's a tripping hazard.

741
00:33:39.000 --> 00:33:40.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like, what are you doing?

742
00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:41.240
<v Speaker 1>What are you doing?

743
00:33:41.319 --> 00:33:45.559
<v Speaker 2>You have no spatial awareness. You're a dancer. Your whole

744
00:33:45.599 --> 00:33:47.279
<v Speaker 2>personality is I'm a dancer.

745
00:33:47.400 --> 00:33:49.640
<v Speaker 1>She has the same amount of spatial awareness as Sean Conner

746
00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:51.880
<v Speaker 1>does as James Bond, where people are constantly sneaking up

747
00:33:51.920 --> 00:33:52.200
<v Speaker 1>on her.

748
00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:58.559
<v Speaker 2>A cool girl Shan Niel played by Carrie Washington.

749
00:33:58.720 --> 00:34:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, can I interrupt you really quick? Sure? May, I'm

750
00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:04.599
<v Speaker 1>going to read you Kerry Washington's opening line, and I'm

751
00:34:04.599 --> 00:34:06.279
<v Speaker 1>not going to be putting any spin on this. I

752
00:34:06.279 --> 00:34:08.599
<v Speaker 1>want everyone I see the trap that's being laid for me,

753
00:34:08.639 --> 00:34:10.880
<v Speaker 1>and I will be saying this as whitely as I

754
00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:13.960
<v Speaker 1>possibly can, because I am practically translucent.

755
00:34:14.119 --> 00:34:16.559
<v Speaker 2>Because you won't. You won't be saying it any whiter

756
00:34:16.639 --> 00:34:17.920
<v Speaker 2>than Carry Washington does.

757
00:34:20.639 --> 00:34:25.360
<v Speaker 1>Kerry Washington says, opening line, Yo, La Trees, mister Jackson's

758
00:34:25.360 --> 00:34:28.280
<v Speaker 1>civic class, you will have a pop quiz. Do not

759
00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:30.599
<v Speaker 1>front on it. It's mad hard.

760
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:34.280
<v Speaker 2>I that Yeah, that wrote that.

761
00:34:34.519 --> 00:34:36.880
<v Speaker 1>An adult wrote it. An adult took all the nineties

762
00:34:36.920 --> 00:34:38.639
<v Speaker 1>slag he could. He put it in a salad spinner.

763
00:34:38.679 --> 00:34:41.000
<v Speaker 1>He pressed it three times. He threw the magnetic poetry

764
00:34:41.039 --> 00:34:42.840
<v Speaker 1>onto the table. He's like, Kerry Washington, say this.

765
00:34:43.199 --> 00:34:45.440
<v Speaker 2>He gave it to his thirteen year old Sunderraid and

766
00:34:45.480 --> 00:34:47.119
<v Speaker 2>the kid couldn't care less. And he's like, yeah, that

767
00:34:47.159 --> 00:34:47.559
<v Speaker 2>sounds right.

768
00:34:47.639 --> 00:34:49.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's exactly how kids talk.

769
00:34:49.079 --> 00:34:51.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's fine, dad, don't worry about it. So Shaneil

770
00:34:51.960 --> 00:34:53.920
<v Speaker 2>walks behind Sarah and takes the backpack.

771
00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Yep.

772
00:34:54.559 --> 00:34:57.519
<v Speaker 2>Sarah turns around, her bag is gone, oh no, I've

773
00:34:57.519 --> 00:34:59.599
<v Speaker 2>only been here a minute and already I've been robbed.

774
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:02.679
<v Speaker 2>She spins around and Shanil is standing right next to her,

775
00:35:02.719 --> 00:35:04.440
<v Speaker 2>like a few lockers down, and she's holding the bag

776
00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:07.360
<v Speaker 2>out and she's like, be careful like, it's really easy

777
00:35:07.360 --> 00:35:09.480
<v Speaker 2>to get robbed around here. You got to pay attention.

778
00:35:09.719 --> 00:35:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Sarah thanks Shanil for being kind. She turns back to

779
00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:14.880
<v Speaker 2>her locker, and then when she turns back around to

780
00:35:14.920 --> 00:35:17.079
<v Speaker 2>continue to talk to Shanil, Shaneil is gone.

781
00:35:17.239 --> 00:35:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Yep, we cut to the lunch room. Sarah is as

782
00:35:20.000 --> 00:35:22.199
<v Speaker 1>the new girl is trying to find a lunch table.

783
00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:23.719
<v Speaker 2>Who hasn't had this struggle.

784
00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:26.239
<v Speaker 1>Look, forget Saving Private Ryan, forget the first ten minute

785
00:35:26.239 --> 00:35:28.519
<v Speaker 1>of Saving Private Ryan. This is the this is the

786
00:35:28.559 --> 00:35:30.639
<v Speaker 1>worst scene of American cinema.

787
00:35:30.840 --> 00:35:33.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the scene in Mean Girls when Katie's trying to

788
00:35:33.599 --> 00:35:36.079
<v Speaker 2>find a table. Like we've all seen this a million times.

789
00:35:36.159 --> 00:35:38.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, it's horrible enough when you're not the

790
00:35:38.079 --> 00:35:39.320
<v Speaker 1>new kid and just got into a fight with your

791
00:35:39.320 --> 00:35:42.079
<v Speaker 1>friend and then you're like oh oh, it's like oh

792
00:35:42.119 --> 00:35:42.760
<v Speaker 1>my god.

793
00:35:42.719 --> 00:35:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, and then you don't have you have to

794
00:35:44.000 --> 00:35:45.920
<v Speaker 2>find a secondary group of friends and they all know

795
00:35:45.960 --> 00:35:47.960
<v Speaker 2>why you're there, and they know you're gonna leave them.

796
00:35:48.000 --> 00:35:49.960
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna ditch them the minute your other friends take

797
00:35:50.000 --> 00:35:50.280
<v Speaker 2>you back.

798
00:35:50.360 --> 00:35:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Uh huh. Yeah. So she spots the white table as

799
00:35:53.800 --> 00:35:56.000
<v Speaker 1>we reference, there's the white table, and then she sees

800
00:35:56.039 --> 00:35:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Shanil sitting with a bunch of her friends, and she

801
00:35:58.039 --> 00:36:01.480
<v Speaker 1>makes her way over to that table. Sarah, good for you.

802
00:36:01.599 --> 00:36:04.199
<v Speaker 1>I have a question for you, though. Does the movie

803
00:36:04.920 --> 00:36:08.360
<v Speaker 1>pos it a little bit that Sarah does not see color.

804
00:36:09.400 --> 00:36:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Later in the film a little bit? Yeah, yes, But

805
00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:15.079
<v Speaker 2>I think also that's where this movie moves the needle,

806
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:18.079
<v Speaker 2>is that Sarah does see color. She genuinely does not

807
00:36:18.119 --> 00:36:20.760
<v Speaker 2>give a shit. Yeah, she doesn't seem afraid, do you

808
00:36:20.840 --> 00:36:23.119
<v Speaker 2>know what I mean? There's a version of this movie

809
00:36:23.119 --> 00:36:24.960
<v Speaker 2>that could be made where like the white girl walks

810
00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:27.519
<v Speaker 2>into the black school and his like eyes wide and

811
00:36:27.559 --> 00:36:31.119
<v Speaker 2>like clutching her backpack to her and like acting acting

812
00:36:31.159 --> 00:36:35.159
<v Speaker 2>like a fucking idiot, And that's not Sarah Creara. Sarah

813
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:37.400
<v Speaker 2>is miserable because of all the shit that's gone on

814
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:39.719
<v Speaker 2>in her life. So she's not exactly thrilled to be

815
00:36:39.880 --> 00:36:42.920
<v Speaker 2>anywhere right now. But yeah, she's She's walking through this

816
00:36:42.960 --> 00:36:45.800
<v Speaker 2>high school as normally as one would in any situation.

817
00:36:45.960 --> 00:36:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Agreed. So she makes her way to Shanil's table, but

818
00:36:48.920 --> 00:36:51.239
<v Speaker 1>the last seat is taken just as she arrives. To

819
00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:54.400
<v Speaker 1>be clear, not a blocking situation, just bad luck, bad timing.

820
00:36:55.159 --> 00:36:58.360
<v Speaker 1>She turns away but not before Shanil notices her trying

821
00:36:58.400 --> 00:37:00.639
<v Speaker 1>to like make a connection, and she walks away. She

822
00:37:00.679 --> 00:37:03.159
<v Speaker 1>winds up at a table full of nerds, and Shanil

823
00:37:03.360 --> 00:37:06.400
<v Speaker 1>goes over and rescues her. She's like, come on, stand up,

824
00:37:06.440 --> 00:37:08.639
<v Speaker 1>come sit with us, but provide you never sit this

825
00:37:08.679 --> 00:37:12.400
<v Speaker 1>table again. And they're black nerds, which is nice representations.

826
00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:14.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, and that black nerd was super funny.

827
00:37:14.800 --> 00:37:17.039
<v Speaker 2>That kid, she sits down and he is like angry

828
00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:19.800
<v Speaker 2>at the world. He's like the Internet before the Internet

829
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:23.119
<v Speaker 2>basically is that kid. He's like, our entire generation is

830
00:37:23.159 --> 00:37:27.199
<v Speaker 2>completelyda from the neck up. It's like nobody even reads anymore.

831
00:37:27.239 --> 00:37:30.079
<v Speaker 2>And she's like, my name is Sarah, Will you calm

832
00:37:30.119 --> 00:37:30.920
<v Speaker 2>the fuck down?

833
00:37:31.800 --> 00:37:34.360
<v Speaker 1>So Shanil brings Sarah over to her group of friends.

834
00:37:34.719 --> 00:37:37.599
<v Speaker 1>She introduces her around, and Sarah sits down, and that

835
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:40.159
<v Speaker 1>makes the very bold choice, And this is the first

836
00:37:40.199 --> 00:37:42.440
<v Speaker 1>real rookie era that Sarah makes. She makes the bold

837
00:37:42.519 --> 00:37:46.760
<v Speaker 1>choice of spotting Derek and proclaiming him an asshole. Now look, kids, PSA,

838
00:37:46.840 --> 00:37:49.599
<v Speaker 1>for this episode, you're anew in a group, You're trying

839
00:37:49.639 --> 00:37:54.360
<v Speaker 1>to make connections. You don't have opinions for no less

840
00:37:54.400 --> 00:37:57.199
<v Speaker 1>than two weeks. You smile and nod, and they may

841
00:37:57.280 --> 00:37:59.320
<v Speaker 1>express opinions that you don't agree with and make you

842
00:37:59.360 --> 00:38:01.039
<v Speaker 1>decide you don't want to be friends with them, and

843
00:38:01.039 --> 00:38:04.159
<v Speaker 1>then you can remove yourself from that situation. But you

844
00:38:04.239 --> 00:38:06.199
<v Speaker 1>don't come in look at a stranger and be like

845
00:38:06.280 --> 00:38:08.719
<v Speaker 1>that person over there that I don't know your relationship to,

846
00:38:09.079 --> 00:38:09.880
<v Speaker 1>that's an asshole.

847
00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:12.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah that was a mistake. Yeah, you agree with what

848
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:15.199
<v Speaker 2>they say basically, and they're like that girl sucks, that

849
00:38:15.239 --> 00:38:17.199
<v Speaker 2>guy sucks. You're like done and done. They're on my

850
00:38:17.239 --> 00:38:17.639
<v Speaker 2>shit list.

851
00:38:17.719 --> 00:38:18.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I hate them?

852
00:38:18.400 --> 00:38:20.360
<v Speaker 2>Who else do I hate? You point out everyone I

853
00:38:20.400 --> 00:38:21.079
<v Speaker 2>hate in this room?

854
00:38:21.079 --> 00:38:23.679
<v Speaker 1>To me, you are a sympathy hater. You tell me

855
00:38:23.719 --> 00:38:24.400
<v Speaker 1>who I hate.

856
00:38:24.440 --> 00:38:26.199
<v Speaker 2>What grudges do I need to hold for the rest

857
00:38:26.239 --> 00:38:26.679
<v Speaker 2>of y'all?

858
00:38:26.719 --> 00:38:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm ready. I can take. I am at less holding

859
00:38:29.480 --> 00:38:31.880
<v Speaker 1>the world on my shoulders. Only the world is your grudges.

860
00:38:33.039 --> 00:38:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Can we talk real quick about Shanil and her friends?

861
00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:38.079
<v Speaker 1>Whatever could you want to talk about? Okay?

862
00:38:38.199 --> 00:38:43.320
<v Speaker 2>There are three white girls in this entire school according

863
00:38:43.360 --> 00:38:45.920
<v Speaker 2>to this movie, right, there's a table white kids. It

864
00:38:46.000 --> 00:38:48.519
<v Speaker 2>seems to be mostly boys and one girl. Maybe I

865
00:38:48.559 --> 00:38:50.559
<v Speaker 2>missed another girl in there. It could be another girl

866
00:38:50.559 --> 00:38:52.920
<v Speaker 2>in there, but I just clocked one girl there right,

867
00:38:53.239 --> 00:38:55.760
<v Speaker 2>The other white girl at the school is already at

868
00:38:55.840 --> 00:38:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Shanil's table. Her name is Diggy. And then Chanil like

869
00:38:59.559 --> 00:39:02.239
<v Speaker 2>plucks Sarah out and it's like, you can come sit

870
00:39:02.280 --> 00:39:06.320
<v Speaker 2>with us. Does Chanil run a club for wayward white girls?

871
00:39:07.559 --> 00:39:10.800
<v Speaker 2>Does Shanil run like an outreach program? She's like, I

872
00:39:10.840 --> 00:39:13.519
<v Speaker 2>will take the cool white girls, of which there are

873
00:39:13.519 --> 00:39:16.119
<v Speaker 2>two at the school, and I will integrate them into

874
00:39:16.159 --> 00:39:19.599
<v Speaker 2>my society and will guide them into my group, and

875
00:39:19.639 --> 00:39:24.119
<v Speaker 2>I will guide them through the halls of Wheatley High School.

876
00:39:25.639 --> 00:39:28.199
<v Speaker 2>Because I was like, this is weird that she is

877
00:39:28.360 --> 00:39:29.679
<v Speaker 2>so nice to Sarah.

878
00:39:29.880 --> 00:39:32.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and not only that, but the girl playing Diggy

879
00:39:32.679 --> 00:39:34.400
<v Speaker 1>who does a good job, but she goes for it

880
00:39:34.519 --> 00:39:36.519
<v Speaker 1>like this is a This is a white girl that

881
00:39:36.639 --> 00:39:40.559
<v Speaker 1>is fully ensconced in the black culture around her, yeah,

882
00:39:40.639 --> 00:39:44.320
<v Speaker 1>and views herself as absolutely part of it.

883
00:39:44.440 --> 00:39:46.880
<v Speaker 2>She's not doing like a Seth Green and yeah, can't

884
00:39:46.880 --> 00:39:49.960
<v Speaker 2>hardly wait, Like she's not overplaying it and so she's

885
00:39:50.000 --> 00:39:51.960
<v Speaker 2>doing to be fair, Seth Green was supposed to be

886
00:39:51.960 --> 00:39:54.079
<v Speaker 2>overplaying it. She's doing it in a way where it's

887
00:39:54.119 --> 00:39:56.880
<v Speaker 2>like she just kind of fits in with everyone else.

888
00:39:56.920 --> 00:40:00.360
<v Speaker 1>And also, this character is in a community where it

889
00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:04.039
<v Speaker 1>is majority black, so her being of that culture would

890
00:40:04.039 --> 00:40:06.280
<v Speaker 1>make more sense than the people that in my suburban

891
00:40:06.320 --> 00:40:08.559
<v Speaker 1>high school where there was like there's like a I

892
00:40:08.559 --> 00:40:12.400
<v Speaker 1>don't know, ten percent black population and everyone's playing at it.

893
00:40:12.440 --> 00:40:13.360
<v Speaker 1>That was problematic.

894
00:40:13.760 --> 00:40:17.079
<v Speaker 2>Problematic. Yeah I had both of those growing up, in

895
00:40:17.119 --> 00:40:20.920
<v Speaker 2>both situations, but like, yes, yes, yeah, absolutely.

896
00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:25.000
<v Speaker 1>So in any case, Sarah calls Derek an asshole, Shaneil

897
00:40:25.079 --> 00:40:27.480
<v Speaker 1>turns around and she's like, you're talking about my brother,

898
00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:30.440
<v Speaker 1>and Sarah's like, oh fuck, and she knows, like that's fine,

899
00:40:30.440 --> 00:40:31.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. She Neeel's cool about it.

900
00:40:31.880 --> 00:40:33.800
<v Speaker 2>She's cool well because like a sister would think her

901
00:40:33.840 --> 00:40:36.280
<v Speaker 2>brother's an asshole. There is a crucial thing though, Sarah

902
00:40:36.320 --> 00:40:39.920
<v Speaker 2>goes he thinks he's so smart and so cute, and

903
00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:42.800
<v Speaker 2>it's immediately it's like, oh, you're into him. That's why

904
00:40:42.840 --> 00:40:44.800
<v Speaker 2>you're so mad at him for like besting you in

905
00:40:44.800 --> 00:40:46.760
<v Speaker 2>that scene earlier, because you want to quook him.

906
00:40:46.840 --> 00:40:47.239
<v Speaker 1>Uh huh.

907
00:40:47.280 --> 00:40:47.599
<v Speaker 2>Fair.

908
00:40:47.719 --> 00:40:50.719
<v Speaker 1>For God's sake, anyone who is of a proper age

909
00:40:51.079 --> 00:40:54.199
<v Speaker 1>who saw that kid? I mean, and Patrick Thomas is

910
00:40:54.199 --> 00:40:55.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty four or something, if.

911
00:40:55.280 --> 00:40:58.000
<v Speaker 2>He's a minute when they Like. Paul and I both

912
00:40:58.039 --> 00:41:00.360
<v Speaker 2>had a conversation off Mike about this earlier. Were like,

913
00:41:00.440 --> 00:41:03.760
<v Speaker 2>Shneil and Derek are both Best Kid nominees, but we

914
00:41:03.840 --> 00:41:07.639
<v Speaker 2>can't actually nominate them for Best Kid because the actors

915
00:41:07.679 --> 00:41:10.639
<v Speaker 2>playing them are adults, and it's weird. It's weird to

916
00:41:10.719 --> 00:41:14.119
<v Speaker 2>call like thirty year old Kerry Washington best Kid. I

917
00:41:14.239 --> 00:41:15.119
<v Speaker 2>refuse to do it.

918
00:41:15.440 --> 00:41:17.719
<v Speaker 1>She not once does she appear day less than twenty

919
00:41:17.719 --> 00:41:19.760
<v Speaker 1>five movie.

920
00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:23.760
<v Speaker 2>Meanwhile, we cut to Derek and his friends Snooky the

921
00:41:23.800 --> 00:41:24.559
<v Speaker 2>class clowns.

922
00:41:24.559 --> 00:41:26.400
<v Speaker 1>This is not the movie's fault. They couldn't have known.

923
00:41:26.480 --> 00:41:28.559
<v Speaker 1>They couldn't have known that Snooky would become famous on

924
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:29.159
<v Speaker 1>Jersey Shore.

925
00:41:29.239 --> 00:41:31.519
<v Speaker 2>I kind of wonder if, like that, if that woman

926
00:41:31.599 --> 00:41:33.239
<v Speaker 2>took her name from this movie, if this is a

927
00:41:33.280 --> 00:41:35.800
<v Speaker 2>favorite movie of hers and she's like Snooky, I'm taking Snookie.

928
00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Snookie is one of my favorite lines in the movie,

929
00:41:37.920 --> 00:41:40.719
<v Speaker 2>when he's introducing himself to Sarah. Later he goes, they

930
00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:45.159
<v Speaker 2>call me Snook, the Kuci crook everything. And then we

931
00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:49.519
<v Speaker 2>meet Malachi Kai played by fred Rostarr, who is just

932
00:41:49.599 --> 00:41:52.119
<v Speaker 2>at a juvie. He's had a life, He's got a

933
00:41:52.159 --> 00:41:53.920
<v Speaker 2>hard life. This kid, this.

934
00:41:53.920 --> 00:41:56.079
<v Speaker 1>Kid's he's a rapper. He's pretty good in this movie.

935
00:41:56.119 --> 00:41:58.639
<v Speaker 2>He's I thought so too. I did the same thing

936
00:41:58.639 --> 00:41:59.800
<v Speaker 2>where I was like, who are you wife? And I

937
00:42:00.159 --> 00:42:02.639
<v Speaker 2>seeing you before. It's because he's a rapper. Derek is

938
00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:05.000
<v Speaker 2>kind of straight laced. Derek is the smart one. He's

939
00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:07.119
<v Speaker 2>gonna go to college. He's gonna be a doctor. That's

940
00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:10.800
<v Speaker 2>his trajectory, right. He wants to go to Georgetown specifically,

941
00:42:10.840 --> 00:42:13.400
<v Speaker 2>so like he's got high hopes. So it seems like

942
00:42:13.800 --> 00:42:17.400
<v Speaker 2>these two lifelong friends are starting to become an odd

943
00:42:17.440 --> 00:42:19.960
<v Speaker 2>fit for each other. It's clear there's like a lot

944
00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:22.639
<v Speaker 2>of love and there's closeness between them and loyalty between

945
00:42:22.639 --> 00:42:25.199
<v Speaker 2>them because they grew up together. And we're gonna find

946
00:42:25.199 --> 00:42:28.199
<v Speaker 2>out later there's another reason maybe why Derek feels like

947
00:42:28.519 --> 00:42:30.039
<v Speaker 2>he needs to be loyal to Kai.

948
00:42:30.159 --> 00:42:31.119
<v Speaker 1>Homosexuality.

949
00:42:31.239 --> 00:42:35.639
<v Speaker 2>I wish, I wish. We find out that Kai just

950
00:42:35.679 --> 00:42:38.239
<v Speaker 2>came back to school. He had been serving a sentence

951
00:42:38.280 --> 00:42:40.400
<v Speaker 2>for a crime he had committed and now he's back

952
00:42:40.400 --> 00:42:42.280
<v Speaker 2>in school and Derek is trying to keep him on

953
00:42:42.320 --> 00:42:43.360
<v Speaker 2>the straight and arrow.

954
00:42:43.480 --> 00:42:46.599
<v Speaker 1>Yep. We cut to that night at dinner. Roy tries

955
00:42:46.679 --> 00:42:48.760
<v Speaker 1>to be a dad, right, he tries to bond with

956
00:42:48.880 --> 00:42:51.880
<v Speaker 1>Sarah by offering her a Swanson Hungry Man frozen dinner.

957
00:42:52.199 --> 00:42:55.360
<v Speaker 1>She's like, no, thank you. He invites her to come

958
00:42:55.360 --> 00:42:56.800
<v Speaker 1>see him play that night and then they can get

959
00:42:56.800 --> 00:42:59.400
<v Speaker 1>dinner afterwards, and she says it's a school night, Roy

960
00:42:59.840 --> 00:43:02.280
<v Speaker 1>and heads out for his gig. He says, you can

961
00:43:02.360 --> 00:43:04.159
<v Speaker 1>eat her naughtyat and I'll be back when I'm back,

962
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:07.280
<v Speaker 1>and like, look, I know, parenting is incredibly hard, the

963
00:43:07.280 --> 00:43:09.679
<v Speaker 1>hardest job in the world being a parent. You never off,

964
00:43:09.679 --> 00:43:12.280
<v Speaker 1>you never have vacation day. Your heart is walking around

965
00:43:12.280 --> 00:43:14.760
<v Speaker 1>outside of your body. It's difficult, but.

966
00:43:14.840 --> 00:43:16.679
<v Speaker 2>Beautiful way of putting that thank you, thank you.

967
00:43:16.760 --> 00:43:20.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, but some things are easy, and not saying

968
00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:22.239
<v Speaker 1>you can eat her naughty I'll be back when I'm

969
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:24.239
<v Speaker 1>back is one of the things you just shouldn't say

970
00:43:24.239 --> 00:43:24.760
<v Speaker 1>as a parent.

971
00:43:25.000 --> 00:43:29.760
<v Speaker 2>Just man, just try try. The next day, Sarah runs

972
00:43:29.800 --> 00:43:32.039
<v Speaker 2>into Shanil, Derek, and Snook. This is when we get

973
00:43:32.039 --> 00:43:35.239
<v Speaker 2>that great line from Snook on her way into school

974
00:43:35.440 --> 00:43:37.800
<v Speaker 2>and she and Derek have another moment. Then we cut

975
00:43:37.840 --> 00:43:40.639
<v Speaker 2>to gym class, where Sarah impresses Shaneil and her friends

976
00:43:40.639 --> 00:43:42.079
<v Speaker 2>with her abilities on the balance.

977
00:43:42.119 --> 00:43:44.599
<v Speaker 1>But I love, I love that this school has the

978
00:43:44.599 --> 00:43:46.639
<v Speaker 1>same view of gymnastics as Rydell High.

979
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:51.519
<v Speaker 2>Every every high school in these movies has gymnastics. What

980
00:43:51.840 --> 00:43:53.239
<v Speaker 2>did we've run out of money?

981
00:43:53.440 --> 00:43:55.400
<v Speaker 1>I did not have gymnastics in high school, Jim, I

982
00:43:55.519 --> 00:43:55.800
<v Speaker 1>know that.

983
00:43:56.000 --> 00:43:59.679
<v Speaker 2>Dear Dade County School District. How dare you rob me

984
00:43:59.719 --> 00:44:03.199
<v Speaker 2>of my gymnastic dreams? This made me laugh. There's a

985
00:44:03.239 --> 00:44:06.679
<v Speaker 2>girl and they're like not in their circle, but like adjacent.

986
00:44:07.119 --> 00:44:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Her name is Nicky. She is played by Bianca Lawson.

987
00:44:10.840 --> 00:44:13.840
<v Speaker 2>She is a fucking twelve. She is a model basically

988
00:44:13.920 --> 00:44:17.000
<v Speaker 2>walking around this school and she looks at Sarah on

989
00:44:17.039 --> 00:44:20.800
<v Speaker 2>the balance beam and she's doing fine, She's doing some

990
00:44:20.960 --> 00:44:25.519
<v Speaker 2>basic balance beam nonsense, and she looks threatened. Nicky is

991
00:44:25.599 --> 00:44:30.000
<v Speaker 2>threatened by Sarah, and I'm like, no, in no planet

992
00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:33.159
<v Speaker 2>with NICKI look at Sarah on the balance beam and

993
00:44:33.199 --> 00:44:37.039
<v Speaker 2>be like, oh no, there's a new hot shit girl

994
00:44:37.079 --> 00:44:41.639
<v Speaker 2>in town. No, what are you talking about? They're just

995
00:44:41.639 --> 00:44:45.000
<v Speaker 2>trying to shoehorn this, Like yeah, this animosity between these

996
00:44:45.000 --> 00:44:47.719
<v Speaker 2>two girls into this movie so hard and it makes

997
00:44:48.199 --> 00:44:51.119
<v Speaker 2>no sense. Later on they're gonna they're gonna tell us

998
00:44:51.119 --> 00:44:53.719
<v Speaker 2>a reason why, but like there was a better way

999
00:44:53.760 --> 00:44:54.360
<v Speaker 2>of doing it.

1000
00:44:54.320 --> 00:44:56.119
<v Speaker 1>Well, because it doesn't make sense. In this scene, they're

1001
00:44:56.119 --> 00:44:58.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna wind up having a conflict over Derek, right, which

1002
00:44:58.440 --> 00:45:01.239
<v Speaker 1>the fundamental like idea that Nicky used to it. Derek

1003
00:45:01.320 --> 00:45:02.880
<v Speaker 1>wants to get back with him, and now he's interested

1004
00:45:02.880 --> 00:45:06.039
<v Speaker 1>in Sarah as a point of conflict. That's fine, but

1005
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:08.239
<v Speaker 1>like now she's just a girl who happens to be

1006
00:45:08.239 --> 00:45:10.760
<v Speaker 1>like pretty good on the balance beam and Nicky's like, how.

1007
00:45:10.719 --> 00:45:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, that's my thing. No it's not. We've never

1008
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:17.519
<v Speaker 2>seen nick can a balance beam. We will never see her. Like,

1009
00:45:17.639 --> 00:45:18.719
<v Speaker 2>what is the problem?

1010
00:45:18.920 --> 00:45:20.599
<v Speaker 1>Being good on the balance beam can't be your thing

1011
00:45:20.599 --> 00:45:24.599
<v Speaker 1>if you're also a cool girl. I'm sorry. I love gymnastics. Yeah,

1012
00:45:24.599 --> 00:45:26.400
<v Speaker 1>it's just not not in high school unless you're some

1013
00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:27.320
<v Speaker 1>mo fucking biles.

1014
00:45:27.440 --> 00:45:30.119
<v Speaker 2>It's not cool. It's not cool. Yeah, and dude, the

1015
00:45:30.159 --> 00:45:33.159
<v Speaker 2>movie I think smartly does it engage in like the

1016
00:45:33.360 --> 00:45:34.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't like white women.

1017
00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

1018
00:45:35.119 --> 00:45:37.440
<v Speaker 2>So after class she kneels like, hey, you were really

1019
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:39.039
<v Speaker 2>good on the balance beam and Sarah's like, yeah, I

1020
00:45:39.079 --> 00:45:41.480
<v Speaker 2>used to dance ballet and she kneels like, oh, you

1021
00:45:41.480 --> 00:45:44.880
<v Speaker 2>should come with us the steps, which, again, every fucking

1022
00:45:44.920 --> 00:45:48.599
<v Speaker 2>high school movie has this the local club where somehow

1023
00:45:48.760 --> 00:45:51.559
<v Speaker 2>teenagers are just allowed. And I know this movie they're

1024
00:45:51.599 --> 00:45:54.960
<v Speaker 2>getting fake id's yea, but the entire senior class is there. Yes,

1025
00:45:55.320 --> 00:45:58.679
<v Speaker 2>the entire senior class is in this fucking club. So no,

1026
00:45:58.960 --> 00:46:00.800
<v Speaker 2>you can't just be like it's it's a regular dance

1027
00:46:00.840 --> 00:46:03.719
<v Speaker 2>club with regular adults, because I did that as a kid.

1028
00:46:04.119 --> 00:46:06.079
<v Speaker 2>I was able to get into regular dance clubs with

1029
00:46:06.119 --> 00:46:08.719
<v Speaker 2>regular adults, and it was fucking weird and you had

1030
00:46:08.760 --> 00:46:11.239
<v Speaker 2>thirty year old men hitting on you and yes, creepy

1031
00:46:11.239 --> 00:46:13.119
<v Speaker 2>as fuck, and that's not what's happening.

1032
00:46:13.159 --> 00:46:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Instead, this is this is a kid's club, all right.

1033
00:46:15.559 --> 00:46:18.239
<v Speaker 1>So after school, Shanil asks Snookie to help Sarah get

1034
00:46:18.239 --> 00:46:19.920
<v Speaker 1>into the club. So he's like, all right, give me

1035
00:46:19.960 --> 00:46:22.239
<v Speaker 1>twenty bucks, and Sarah's like why and he says it's

1036
00:46:22.239 --> 00:46:24.159
<v Speaker 1>for a fake ID, and he starts to spin into

1037
00:46:24.159 --> 00:46:27.360
<v Speaker 1>this like kind of monologue about how she assumes she

1038
00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:29.119
<v Speaker 1>was gonna get it on her looks. She cuts him

1039
00:46:29.159 --> 00:46:31.400
<v Speaker 1>off with Snook, you talk a lot of shit for

1040
00:46:31.480 --> 00:46:35.440
<v Speaker 1>someone who never says anything, and Shaneil and Derek love it, right,

1041
00:46:35.519 --> 00:46:38.599
<v Speaker 1>so Sarah is validated. Sarah gives Snookie a twenty dollars

1042
00:46:38.639 --> 00:46:41.639
<v Speaker 1>bill and when Derek says that steps ain't no square dance.

1043
00:46:42.000 --> 00:46:45.199
<v Speaker 1>She brags that she'll dance in circles, probably around him,

1044
00:46:45.519 --> 00:46:50.039
<v Speaker 1>and Derek laughs. Right, so this like peacocky, braggadocious energy.

1045
00:46:50.159 --> 00:46:52.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, these kids are great. Next night, Sarah heads to

1046
00:46:52.559 --> 00:46:56.719
<v Speaker 2>Shaneil's apartment. It's warm, it's homy. We find out a

1047
00:46:56.760 --> 00:46:59.719
<v Speaker 2>little bit about Shanil and Derek's home life. They seem

1048
00:46:59.760 --> 00:47:02.360
<v Speaker 2>to not have parents. There's an older woman they call

1049
00:47:02.480 --> 00:47:04.599
<v Speaker 2>Mama Dean who takes care of them. I'm not sure

1050
00:47:04.599 --> 00:47:06.519
<v Speaker 2>if that's their grandmother or just like.

1051
00:47:06.639 --> 00:47:08.280
<v Speaker 1>A foster mother or something.

1052
00:47:08.400 --> 00:47:11.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like someone in their in their life who takes

1053
00:47:11.159 --> 00:47:14.840
<v Speaker 2>care of them. We also meet Chanil's baby, Christopher, who's

1054
00:47:14.880 --> 00:47:18.159
<v Speaker 2>being cared for by Mamma Dean, mostly so that Chanil

1055
00:47:18.199 --> 00:47:20.920
<v Speaker 2>can still go to school and like have a semi normal,

1056
00:47:21.079 --> 00:47:22.360
<v Speaker 2>like teenage existence.

1057
00:47:22.400 --> 00:47:22.519
<v Speaker 1>Yea.

1058
00:47:22.880 --> 00:47:26.079
<v Speaker 2>The girls head out and like, I am so glad

1059
00:47:26.119 --> 00:47:28.039
<v Speaker 2>this happen because I'd forgotten the scene in this movie.

1060
00:47:28.039 --> 00:47:31.039
<v Speaker 2>And Sarah shows up to this apartment wearing a tank

1061
00:47:31.039 --> 00:47:33.920
<v Speaker 2>top with a matching cardigan and like a pencil skirt

1062
00:47:33.960 --> 00:47:36.480
<v Speaker 2>and boots and like, there's a miamiist to my brain

1063
00:47:36.519 --> 00:47:39.199
<v Speaker 2>where I'm like, if you're going clubbing, you'd wear the

1064
00:47:39.280 --> 00:47:42.719
<v Speaker 2>sluttiest thing you own. That's how you go clubbing is

1065
00:47:42.760 --> 00:47:46.280
<v Speaker 2>you wear the absolute trashiest, street walkeryest thing you own.

1066
00:47:46.400 --> 00:47:48.280
<v Speaker 1>Is that why you're wearing that tubetop? Are you going out?

1067
00:47:48.360 --> 00:47:50.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm going out after that? Yeah, I'm wearing the tubetop

1068
00:47:50.519 --> 00:47:51.159
<v Speaker 2>and nothing else.

1069
00:47:51.599 --> 00:47:54.519
<v Speaker 1>No, you know, like a tubtop can become a skirt,

1070
00:47:54.559 --> 00:47:55.360
<v Speaker 1>can pull it down.

1071
00:47:55.320 --> 00:47:58.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah faro, Yeah, my ass my asshole is on this chair.

1072
00:47:59.239 --> 00:48:02.039
<v Speaker 2>My bear asshole is touching the chair that I'm sitting

1073
00:48:02.039 --> 00:48:04.840
<v Speaker 2>on right now. But yeah, it's so like, I'm like,

1074
00:48:04.960 --> 00:48:07.599
<v Speaker 2>that's when you're wearing to go dancing. What's wrong with you?

1075
00:48:08.840 --> 00:48:12.159
<v Speaker 2>So I'm so glad that she asked Shanil and Saniel's like, yeah,

1076
00:48:12.159 --> 00:48:14.000
<v Speaker 2>you look fine because she's trying to be nice. And

1077
00:48:14.000 --> 00:48:16.880
<v Speaker 2>then she's like no really and Saniel's like, okay, no,

1078
00:48:17.000 --> 00:48:19.320
<v Speaker 2>you don't look good. Yeah, we have to fix this.

1079
00:48:20.639 --> 00:48:23.519
<v Speaker 2>So they do a very quick like makeover, honestly all

1080
00:48:23.559 --> 00:48:26.159
<v Speaker 2>Shanil does, and it works. It's enough is she takes

1081
00:48:26.159 --> 00:48:28.440
<v Speaker 2>the cardigan off, she wraps Sarah's hair in it so

1082
00:48:28.480 --> 00:48:30.679
<v Speaker 2>it looks like a head wrap, and then she gives

1083
00:48:30.679 --> 00:48:32.960
<v Speaker 2>her like like a headscarf and then she gives her

1084
00:48:32.960 --> 00:48:35.800
<v Speaker 2>her her whoop earrings. Yeah, so that Sarah looks slightly

1085
00:48:35.840 --> 00:48:38.679
<v Speaker 2>more like a teenage girl and not like someone's actuary.

1086
00:48:40.519 --> 00:48:43.159
<v Speaker 2>They go into the crowded club, Shanil takes a moment

1087
00:48:43.280 --> 00:48:45.519
<v Speaker 2>to like, there's a guy who grabs her in the

1088
00:48:45.559 --> 00:48:48.440
<v Speaker 2>ass as she's walking by. She grabs him by the ball,

1089
00:48:48.519 --> 00:48:51.039
<v Speaker 2>squeezes tight and the guy's like, okay, okay, okay, you

1090
00:48:51.079 --> 00:48:53.320
<v Speaker 2>got it. You got it, like meaning like I'll leave

1091
00:48:53.360 --> 00:48:55.440
<v Speaker 2>you alone, and she goes, got what the right to

1092
00:48:55.480 --> 00:48:58.800
<v Speaker 2>pass by your greasy tickle dick self without your paws

1093
00:48:58.840 --> 00:49:00.960
<v Speaker 2>on my ass? I love this kid.

1094
00:49:01.639 --> 00:49:04.199
<v Speaker 1>The tickle dick, the insult tickle. I've never heard it,

1095
00:49:04.320 --> 00:49:06.159
<v Speaker 1>never heard of it. I've never heard it. And it's

1096
00:49:06.159 --> 00:49:07.639
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a thinker because at first I

1097
00:49:07.639 --> 00:49:09.599
<v Speaker 1>was like, well, what is it? Oh? Oh, it's like

1098
00:49:09.679 --> 00:49:11.639
<v Speaker 1>just a tickle down there. I can't even feel it

1099
00:49:11.760 --> 00:49:13.239
<v Speaker 1>because because you dick so small.

1100
00:49:13.400 --> 00:49:16.119
<v Speaker 2>Oh I'm putting that together now. I just thought it

1101
00:49:16.159 --> 00:49:18.559
<v Speaker 2>was wordplay, and I do love wordplay. I love the

1102
00:49:18.599 --> 00:49:20.719
<v Speaker 2>internal rhymes, and I like better than pickle dick.

1103
00:49:20.760 --> 00:49:22.079
<v Speaker 1>Oh, absolutely, tickle dick.

1104
00:49:22.599 --> 00:49:24.559
<v Speaker 2>Tickle dick is meaner excellent.

1105
00:49:24.599 --> 00:49:27.679
<v Speaker 1>It's better than fickled dick. Fickle you can't count.

1106
00:49:27.440 --> 00:49:30.079
<v Speaker 2>On honestly, fickle dick could be good dick. It could

1107
00:49:30.079 --> 00:49:31.159
<v Speaker 2>still be good dick, but.

1108
00:49:31.119 --> 00:49:32.679
<v Speaker 1>You don't know if it's going to show up.

1109
00:49:33.119 --> 00:49:34.920
<v Speaker 2>What if you grab some guy by the balls to

1110
00:49:35.039 --> 00:49:36.920
<v Speaker 2>like to do this to him, and but it's fucking

1111
00:49:37.039 --> 00:49:40.440
<v Speaker 2>enormous and you're like, oh, I can't use my backup

1112
00:49:40.480 --> 00:49:42.880
<v Speaker 2>tickle dick. I have to think of something else to say.

1113
00:49:43.800 --> 00:49:45.280
<v Speaker 1>A brickle dick, trickled dick.

1114
00:49:46.400 --> 00:49:50.519
<v Speaker 2>You know what, sir, too big? No one wants that.

1115
00:49:50.639 --> 00:49:53.039
<v Speaker 2>Put it away, Put it away, put it away, No

1116
00:49:53.039 --> 00:49:54.679
<v Speaker 2>one wants that. That's uncomfortable.

1117
00:49:54.840 --> 00:49:57.599
<v Speaker 1>Go into sex work immediately, you'll make a million dollars.

1118
00:50:00.159 --> 00:50:03.480
<v Speaker 2>So Sarah is like in awe of her new best friend,

1119
00:50:03.559 --> 00:50:05.960
<v Speaker 2>which as anyone should be. She's like, this is such

1120
00:50:05.960 --> 00:50:08.840
<v Speaker 2>an upgrade from Lindsay, I can't even say. They go

1121
00:50:08.880 --> 00:50:12.880
<v Speaker 2>into the club, they start going around. Sarah officially meets Nicky.

1122
00:50:13.000 --> 00:50:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Nicky openly hates her from the jump again, Nikki could

1123
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:20.119
<v Speaker 2>not be more beautiful. Luckily, we find out Shanil also

1124
00:50:20.199 --> 00:50:23.480
<v Speaker 2>hates Nicky because Nicky dumped Derek and treated him like shit.

1125
00:50:23.800 --> 00:50:26.639
<v Speaker 1>I want to circle back to another PSA for the

1126
00:50:26.679 --> 00:50:30.599
<v Speaker 1>listeners out there. So Sarah again does the thing where

1127
00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:33.880
<v Speaker 1>she engages in the conversation in the play by play

1128
00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:39.639
<v Speaker 1>in the repartee amongst this group of black women and Diggy,

1129
00:50:40.000 --> 00:50:42.840
<v Speaker 1>but Diggy, who's notably not saying anything, just like everyone

1130
00:50:42.920 --> 00:50:43.679
<v Speaker 1>can't we be friends?

1131
00:50:45.159 --> 00:50:46.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Diggy has it right.

1132
00:50:46.519 --> 00:50:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So as a white person, I'm just gonna just

1133
00:50:48.880 --> 00:50:53.360
<v Speaker 1>don't police black people's use of whatever slur they want

1134
00:50:53.360 --> 00:50:56.239
<v Speaker 1>to use that's pointed at black people. Just don't do

1135
00:50:56.320 --> 00:50:59.559
<v Speaker 1>it what they just don't do it? Because Nicki says,

1136
00:51:00.199 --> 00:51:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I ain't walking on eggshells just because you brought the

1137
00:51:03.000 --> 00:51:08.039
<v Speaker 1>Brady Bunch to the Negro club, and before Shanil can respond,

1138
00:51:08.320 --> 00:51:11.320
<v Speaker 1>Sarah says, maybe you came to the wrong spot because

1139
00:51:11.320 --> 00:51:13.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty sure there aren't any negroes here.

1140
00:51:13.960 --> 00:51:17.199
<v Speaker 2>Too, which I admit I was also like, why are

1141
00:51:17.239 --> 00:51:21.079
<v Speaker 2>you talking? Don't talk, Sarah, why are you talking. Luckily

1142
00:51:21.119 --> 00:51:23.719
<v Speaker 2>they cut to Shanil and Saniel's like, oh, yeah, she

1143
00:51:23.840 --> 00:51:26.239
<v Speaker 2>got you, and I'm like, oh thank god, this went well.

1144
00:51:26.320 --> 00:51:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Again. The best kid for Shaneil if she wasn't twenty

1145
00:51:28.519 --> 00:51:29.519
<v Speaker 1>seven years old.

1146
00:51:29.480 --> 00:51:33.119
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, she's easily best kid, best best middle aged woman

1147
00:51:33.159 --> 00:51:36.960
<v Speaker 2>pretending to be a kid. Yes, absolutely, Now now.

1148
00:51:36.800 --> 00:51:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Should she be checking her white friend afterwards? Be like, fy,

1149
00:51:39.639 --> 00:51:44.719
<v Speaker 1>that's fine, but again, don't police our language about each other.

1150
00:51:45.400 --> 00:51:48.800
<v Speaker 2>I like maybe maybe she's like at the two strike policy,

1151
00:51:48.920 --> 00:51:50.280
<v Speaker 2>she gets one, she didn't one.

1152
00:51:50.280 --> 00:51:52.480
<v Speaker 1>It's fine and it was funny, and she landed on Nikki,

1153
00:51:52.480 --> 00:51:53.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna let it go and like and.

1154
00:51:53.800 --> 00:51:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Like Sarah doesn't do it again for the rest of

1155
00:51:55.480 --> 00:51:57.559
<v Speaker 2>the movie, so like we're just gonna let it. She

1156
00:51:57.719 --> 00:52:00.000
<v Speaker 2>kept doing it. Yeah, she was like that white teacher,

1157
00:52:00.000 --> 00:52:07.639
<v Speaker 2>you're an avid elementary, Like Jacob, shut up, Like that's

1158
00:52:07.639 --> 00:52:08.519
<v Speaker 2>that's a different story.

1159
00:52:08.559 --> 00:52:10.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to figure out. If I had a new friend,

1160
00:52:10.400 --> 00:52:12.800
<v Speaker 1>new girlfriend comes in, I introduced her to my friends,

1161
00:52:12.800 --> 00:52:20.119
<v Speaker 1>and the first thing she's like, your fuck? How how

1162
00:52:21.079 --> 00:52:24.159
<v Speaker 1>how forgiving? Would I be like what what's up? Holmost,

1163
00:52:24.880 --> 00:52:26.920
<v Speaker 1>or even worse, if it was a straight male friend

1164
00:52:26.960 --> 00:52:29.440
<v Speaker 1>and he was trying to fit in, it's like, yo.

1165
00:52:29.559 --> 00:52:31.599
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, I would actually love to see that.

1166
00:52:32.280 --> 00:52:34.320
<v Speaker 2>Can we adopt straight? And we adopt?

1167
00:52:34.519 --> 00:52:37.440
<v Speaker 1>And I was really confident that it wasn't like he

1168
00:52:37.639 --> 00:52:40.280
<v Speaker 1>know he loves gay people, he's trying to fit in right,

1169
00:52:40.360 --> 00:52:43.199
<v Speaker 1>like he would get the one. I think I would

1170
00:52:43.199 --> 00:52:44.159
<v Speaker 1>give him the one.

1171
00:52:44.400 --> 00:52:48.239
<v Speaker 2>Well if he's quoting Tricksy and Katya, you know, like Hill,

1172
00:52:48.800 --> 00:52:50.639
<v Speaker 2>if he's doing that and they're like, no, no, you

1173
00:52:50.679 --> 00:52:54.760
<v Speaker 2>don't understand he's quoting Tricksy and Katya. Can we please

1174
00:52:54.800 --> 00:52:57.320
<v Speaker 2>let's adopt a gate a straight man, because we don't

1175
00:52:57.360 --> 00:52:59.639
<v Speaker 2>have any inner circle of friends and we really.

1176
00:52:59.400 --> 00:53:01.599
<v Speaker 1>Need we have we have well, we have husbands.

1177
00:53:01.880 --> 00:53:05.000
<v Speaker 2>We have husbands, yeah, but none of them. I know

1178
00:53:05.079 --> 00:53:07.079
<v Speaker 2>them all, I love them all. They don't have the balls.

1179
00:53:07.199 --> 00:53:08.159
<v Speaker 2>They're never gonna do it.

1180
00:53:08.280 --> 00:53:10.840
<v Speaker 1>My brother hangs out with us sometimes, but alas he's

1181
00:53:10.960 --> 00:53:12.559
<v Speaker 1>he's in old gen X, and I don't think an

1182
00:53:12.599 --> 00:53:13.719
<v Speaker 1>older gen X can pull it off.

1183
00:53:13.719 --> 00:53:16.480
<v Speaker 2>I want him to try, I really want him to try.

1184
00:53:16.800 --> 00:53:19.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he would. I don't think he'd be comfortable.

1185
00:53:20.360 --> 00:53:22.400
<v Speaker 1>My brother was the captain of the football team in

1186
00:53:22.400 --> 00:53:24.239
<v Speaker 1>the eighties and he grew up with a little gay

1187
00:53:24.280 --> 00:53:25.960
<v Speaker 1>brother who is six years younger than him. And I've

1188
00:53:26.000 --> 00:53:27.199
<v Speaker 1>never heard him muse a geysler.

1189
00:53:28.000 --> 00:53:30.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, but not in a good or bad way. No,

1190
00:53:30.960 --> 00:53:35.320
<v Speaker 2>if it's in a good way, all right.

1191
00:53:35.400 --> 00:53:39.400
<v Speaker 1>So, so now the club is bumping as the kids say.

1192
00:53:39.519 --> 00:53:40.559
<v Speaker 2>As the children say.

1193
00:53:40.760 --> 00:53:44.159
<v Speaker 1>Derek arrives at Steps with Kai and Nicky approaches Derek

1194
00:53:44.280 --> 00:53:46.519
<v Speaker 1>right she asked him to dance, and he immediately makes

1195
00:53:46.559 --> 00:53:48.480
<v Speaker 1>it clear he has no interest in getting back together

1196
00:53:48.519 --> 00:53:50.440
<v Speaker 1>with her after she dumped him for a college boy.

1197
00:53:50.480 --> 00:53:51.519
<v Speaker 1>He just shuts her right down.

1198
00:53:51.639 --> 00:53:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she should be dating college man. That's how attractive this.

1199
00:53:55.480 --> 00:53:57.760
<v Speaker 2>She should be dating like a billionaires do.

1200
00:53:57.800 --> 00:53:59.480
<v Speaker 1>I want need to write a letter of what caution

1201
00:53:59.559 --> 00:54:02.239
<v Speaker 1>to Beyonca Lawson to be, Like, if you see a

1202
00:54:02.320 --> 00:54:04.119
<v Speaker 1>Cuba or a Guayan woman staring at you.

1203
00:54:04.119 --> 00:54:06.239
<v Speaker 2>From across trunk room, deeply in love.

1204
00:54:06.119 --> 00:54:10.400
<v Speaker 1>With you, I want you to just calmly stand up

1205
00:54:10.400 --> 00:54:12.079
<v Speaker 1>and walk out and then get to a city place.

1206
00:54:14.079 --> 00:54:18.519
<v Speaker 2>Am I deeply Lawson? No? Yes, maybe shut up.

1207
00:54:18.960 --> 00:54:21.280
<v Speaker 1>So Sarah and Shaneil go to the bar. They run

1208
00:54:21.320 --> 00:54:24.719
<v Speaker 1>into Kenny. Kenny is Christopher's father who Shaneil is pissed

1209
00:54:24.719 --> 00:54:27.079
<v Speaker 1>out because he's kind of a dead beat dad. Not

1210
00:54:27.440 --> 00:54:29.800
<v Speaker 1>really a deadbeat dad, but like he's a kid. He's

1211
00:54:29.800 --> 00:54:31.880
<v Speaker 1>not succeeding at the whole father thing right, Like it's

1212
00:54:31.880 --> 00:54:34.159
<v Speaker 1>not like he just disappeared, but he's like I had

1213
00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:35.719
<v Speaker 1>to work, I couldn't pick him up, but I didn't

1214
00:54:35.719 --> 00:54:37.800
<v Speaker 1>call it like it's it's all the bullshit. She also

1215
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:41.519
<v Speaker 1>unfortunately finds Kenny irresistible. Fair enough. The guy's good looking.

1216
00:54:41.519 --> 00:54:43.880
<v Speaker 2>It's good looking, man, it's very handsome. Is he Lawson

1217
00:54:43.960 --> 00:54:44.840
<v Speaker 2>good looking? No?

1218
00:54:44.840 --> 00:54:47.199
<v Speaker 1>No, no one is no one is it's Bianca Lawson.

1219
00:54:47.239 --> 00:54:48.079
<v Speaker 1>Then everybody else and.

1220
00:54:48.079 --> 00:54:50.320
<v Speaker 2>It's literally the rest of the monsters.

1221
00:54:52.000 --> 00:54:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Shanil goes to dance with him, but she like, she

1222
00:54:54.079 --> 00:54:55.840
<v Speaker 1>gestures to Sarah. She's like, I'll be back in five minutes.

1223
00:54:55.880 --> 00:54:58.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, I just I can't. I can't not do it.

1224
00:54:58.119 --> 00:55:00.239
<v Speaker 1>I can't not do it. This guy's so hot. Yeah,

1225
00:55:00.360 --> 00:55:01.599
<v Speaker 1>fair yeah.

1226
00:55:01.639 --> 00:55:04.119
<v Speaker 2>So Sarah's very cool at being ditched at the club

1227
00:55:04.159 --> 00:55:05.599
<v Speaker 2>by her friend. I have to say. She's just hanging

1228
00:55:05.639 --> 00:55:08.199
<v Speaker 2>out at the bar, being normal. She's just trying to

1229
00:55:08.280 --> 00:55:12.280
<v Speaker 2>order drinks. Derek approaches her. The two of them spar again,

1230
00:55:12.360 --> 00:55:15.920
<v Speaker 2>but it's so like, like just kiss already, just kiss already.

1231
00:55:16.480 --> 00:55:19.119
<v Speaker 2>Derek points out, Hey, I'm supposed to be dizzy from

1232
00:55:19.119 --> 00:55:22.000
<v Speaker 2>all the circles you're dancing around me, remember, And suddenly

1233
00:55:22.039 --> 00:55:27.079
<v Speaker 2>Sarah's like, oh, not tonight. I'm just here to observe tonight.

1234
00:55:27.480 --> 00:55:30.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a narc. I'm definitely not a narc. Don't worry.

1235
00:55:30.920 --> 00:55:33.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm not here to buy drugs. By the way, does

1236
00:55:33.119 --> 00:55:36.679
<v Speaker 2>anyone know where I can buy some drugs? Just wondering?

1237
00:55:36.880 --> 00:55:39.440
<v Speaker 2>Can you point me to the highest step drug dealer

1238
00:55:39.480 --> 00:55:41.559
<v Speaker 2>in the club? I am not a narc, you guys.

1239
00:55:42.280 --> 00:55:45.239
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, she's very clearly like uncomfortable and he's like, no, no,

1240
00:55:45.280 --> 00:55:50.880
<v Speaker 2>come on, get on the dance floor. So she should

1241
00:55:50.920 --> 00:55:53.440
<v Speaker 2>be better at dancing than this. She should be better.

1242
00:55:53.519 --> 00:55:57.199
<v Speaker 2>I am not a trained dancer. I was better at sixteen,

1243
00:55:57.360 --> 00:56:02.039
<v Speaker 2>at seventeen than this at dancing. I was, I believe you,

1244
00:56:02.440 --> 00:56:05.039
<v Speaker 2>like you, like, how are you this bad at this?

1245
00:56:05.639 --> 00:56:08.079
<v Speaker 1>Because the movie posits so like for a long time,

1246
00:56:08.119 --> 00:56:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I was a TA for like movement in dance classes.

1247
00:56:10.440 --> 00:56:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I will say that, like some of the most difficult

1248
00:56:13.840 --> 00:56:18.119
<v Speaker 1>people to teach were the ballet kids. Like the kids kids,

1249
00:56:18.159 --> 00:56:20.360
<v Speaker 1>they were all women, the ballet girls that came in

1250
00:56:20.400 --> 00:56:22.880
<v Speaker 1>and wanted to move in a different way. Right, So

1251
00:56:22.920 --> 00:56:26.840
<v Speaker 1>like I can kind of like understand how she may

1252
00:56:26.880 --> 00:56:29.960
<v Speaker 1>not know how to dance outside of like the very

1253
00:56:30.719 --> 00:56:34.880
<v Speaker 1>regimented way that she's used to dancing. However, she should

1254
00:56:34.920 --> 00:56:37.320
<v Speaker 1>still have basic rhythm.

1255
00:56:36.840 --> 00:56:40.679
<v Speaker 2>That's she's so offbeat, like the whole I'm like, this

1256
00:56:40.760 --> 00:56:43.039
<v Speaker 2>is not even a hard song, No, it's like a

1257
00:56:43.119 --> 00:56:45.920
<v Speaker 2>it's like a one two one too, and she just

1258
00:56:46.000 --> 00:56:48.800
<v Speaker 2>she can't manage to fit, yeah, to catch up to

1259
00:56:48.840 --> 00:56:51.159
<v Speaker 2>that beat. And I'm like, why are you so bad

1260
00:56:51.199 --> 00:56:51.519
<v Speaker 2>at this?

1261
00:56:51.599 --> 00:56:53.599
<v Speaker 1>Because when they start positing that he's gonna teach her

1262
00:56:53.639 --> 00:56:56.320
<v Speaker 1>like actual quote unquote hip hop steps, I'm like, it

1263
00:56:56.360 --> 00:56:57.760
<v Speaker 1>makes sense that she want to be good at this

1264
00:56:57.880 --> 00:57:00.440
<v Speaker 1>because there's a different way you hold your there's a

1265
00:57:00.440 --> 00:57:02.800
<v Speaker 1>different center of gravity, there's a different pose that you

1266
00:57:02.800 --> 00:57:05.440
<v Speaker 1>should be hitting, So all of that makes sense. But this,

1267
00:57:05.559 --> 00:57:08.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, she should be able to like step touch

1268
00:57:08.400 --> 00:57:10.760
<v Speaker 1>to a beat pretty well, like move.

1269
00:57:10.760 --> 00:57:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Your hips just a little bit.

1270
00:57:13.320 --> 00:57:16.880
<v Speaker 1>How white is she? Is? She polar ice cap white.

1271
00:57:17.159 --> 00:57:20.960
<v Speaker 2>Snow white. She is snow white white. Like it's embarrassing

1272
00:57:20.960 --> 00:57:22.840
<v Speaker 2>to watch it. Julia House does a very good job

1273
00:57:22.840 --> 00:57:25.239
<v Speaker 2>in this scene of being like she's embarrassed, but like

1274
00:57:25.440 --> 00:57:28.480
<v Speaker 2>she doesn't let that stop her right from like trying

1275
00:57:28.519 --> 00:57:30.760
<v Speaker 2>at least to dance. It's so embarrassing to watch, and.

1276
00:57:31.039 --> 00:57:32.719
<v Speaker 1>Derek is so much nicer to her than I would

1277
00:57:32.760 --> 00:57:35.079
<v Speaker 1>be if I brought some guy onto the dance floor

1278
00:57:35.079 --> 00:57:36.639
<v Speaker 1>and this is what he was doing. I mean, she

1279
00:57:36.760 --> 00:57:40.159
<v Speaker 1>was insanely hot, which okay, I get it now, I

1280
00:57:40.239 --> 00:57:42.960
<v Speaker 1>understand Like this the movie is positing that Sarah is

1281
00:57:43.000 --> 00:57:45.000
<v Speaker 1>so hot that Derek is willing to look past this.

1282
00:57:45.840 --> 00:57:46.199
<v Speaker 2>She's not.

1283
00:57:46.880 --> 00:57:47.239
<v Speaker 1>She's not.

1284
00:57:47.320 --> 00:57:49.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, she's not. No, I know I would be like,

1285
00:57:49.960 --> 00:57:51.360
<v Speaker 2>you know what, I do want to drink.

1286
00:57:51.440 --> 00:57:54.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's go back. You move. I thought you moving was

1287
00:57:54.320 --> 00:57:55.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna be good, but now I'm just thinking you're gonna

1288
00:57:55.920 --> 00:57:58.360
<v Speaker 1>be a bad leg because you have no rhythm none.

1289
00:57:59.159 --> 00:58:01.880
<v Speaker 2>So okay, so he decides to take pity on her.

1290
00:58:02.159 --> 00:58:05.440
<v Speaker 2>He like helps her stop clapping off beat, which is

1291
00:58:05.440 --> 00:58:08.360
<v Speaker 2>so embarrassing to watch. Hey shows her as simple step as.

1292
00:58:08.360 --> 00:58:10.639
<v Speaker 2>The two of them dance together, and they like again

1293
00:58:10.760 --> 00:58:13.159
<v Speaker 2>like a they're warming up to each.

1294
00:58:13.039 --> 00:58:16.000
<v Speaker 1>Other y R. Meanwhile, Kai notices a drug deal going

1295
00:58:16.039 --> 00:58:17.480
<v Speaker 1>on in like this corner of the club, and he

1296
00:58:17.519 --> 00:58:19.880
<v Speaker 1>considers the club his turf, so he starts a fight.

1297
00:58:20.039 --> 00:58:22.599
<v Speaker 1>Derek sees it. He immediately runs to help his friend

1298
00:58:22.639 --> 00:58:25.599
<v Speaker 1>immediately goes to defend Kai. They beat these two guys up.

1299
00:58:25.639 --> 00:58:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Derek's like, let's go, let's go. He tries to drag

1300
00:58:27.559 --> 00:58:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Kai out. Kai is like okay, okay, and then spins

1301
00:58:29.920 --> 00:58:32.320
<v Speaker 1>around lands a couple of more kicks on the guy

1302
00:58:32.360 --> 00:58:34.960
<v Speaker 1>that he initially started beating up, and they run out

1303
00:58:34.960 --> 00:58:37.239
<v Speaker 1>of the club's back door, all of this hubbub hubbub.

1304
00:58:37.320 --> 00:58:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Sheneel's like, we gotta go. She grabs Sarah. They run

1305
00:58:39.440 --> 00:58:42.840
<v Speaker 1>out the front and they meet up with Kai and Derek.

1306
00:58:43.239 --> 00:58:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Kai heads off and Shaneil starts yelling at her brother

1307
00:58:45.840 --> 00:58:48.440
<v Speaker 1>for fighting. She's like, you need to stop getting mixed

1308
00:58:48.480 --> 00:58:51.000
<v Speaker 1>up with Kai. Like I get it, but like enough,

1309
00:58:51.079 --> 00:58:53.079
<v Speaker 1>he's bad news. You're gonna get in trouble.

1310
00:58:53.199 --> 00:58:53.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1311
00:58:53.760 --> 00:58:56.519
<v Speaker 1>They get back to their neighborhood. Sarah's like, oh, I'm

1312
00:58:56.519 --> 00:58:58.239
<v Speaker 1>just a couple of blocks away, and she knows, like, no,

1313
00:58:58.280 --> 00:59:00.639
<v Speaker 1>you cannot walk home alone. It's not safe. And Derek's like,

1314
00:59:00.679 --> 00:59:03.360
<v Speaker 1>I'll go with you, so he and Channeel's like at

1315
00:59:03.400 --> 00:59:05.559
<v Speaker 1>her house already, it's not like you can walk home alone.

1316
00:59:05.719 --> 00:59:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh you're fine. Yeah, she's already there. So Derek walks

1317
00:59:08.920 --> 00:59:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Sarah home. He offers to meet up with her after

1318
00:59:10.840 --> 00:59:12.440
<v Speaker 1>school to help her work on her moves.

1319
00:59:12.599 --> 00:59:17.199
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Okay, here's what I think the movie wants me

1320
00:59:17.239 --> 00:59:19.360
<v Speaker 2>to think is happening. Okay, what the movie wants me

1321
00:59:19.440 --> 00:59:22.280
<v Speaker 2>to think is happening is that Derek is so enamored

1322
00:59:22.639 --> 00:59:24.960
<v Speaker 2>he's just looking for an excuse to spend time with Sarah,

1323
00:59:25.000 --> 00:59:29.639
<v Speaker 2>which that makes total dramaturgical sense. Yeah, But what I

1324
00:59:29.679 --> 00:59:32.519
<v Speaker 2>think is really happening is that Derek doesn't want to

1325
00:59:32.559 --> 00:59:36.559
<v Speaker 2>be a doctor. Derek wants to be a choreographer.

1326
00:59:36.719 --> 00:59:37.679
<v Speaker 1>I just want to dance.

1327
00:59:37.880 --> 00:59:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Derek just wants to be Debbie Allen. The rest of

1328
00:59:40.920 --> 00:59:43.800
<v Speaker 2>this movie, Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I'm going

1329
00:59:43.840 --> 00:59:47.159
<v Speaker 2>to lay out a case here that Derek's true passion

1330
00:59:47.280 --> 00:59:52.199
<v Speaker 2>is choreography, and the movie is choosing to guess, like me,

1331
00:59:52.760 --> 00:59:56.159
<v Speaker 2>with this romance that's happening with the two of them

1332
00:59:56.199 --> 00:59:58.599
<v Speaker 2>in the movie, which both of these actors have chemistry,

1333
00:59:58.599 --> 01:00:00.719
<v Speaker 2>so there is like a lovely romance in the movie.

1334
01:00:00.880 --> 01:00:03.800
<v Speaker 2>But I feel like that is secondary to the true

1335
01:00:03.840 --> 01:00:07.320
<v Speaker 2>story that's happening here, which is Derek's budding career as

1336
01:00:07.360 --> 01:00:11.559
<v Speaker 2>the next Justin Beck, and like he needs this needs

1337
01:00:11.599 --> 01:00:12.159
<v Speaker 2>to come out.

1338
01:00:12.480 --> 01:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I also, like, I just okay if he's just teaching

1339
01:00:15.440 --> 01:00:17.719
<v Speaker 1>her moves so like so you can go to steps

1340
01:00:17.960 --> 01:00:21.119
<v Speaker 1>and you cannot look like a fool on the dance floor.

1341
01:00:21.599 --> 01:00:23.320
<v Speaker 1>All you need to do is just you just need

1342
01:00:23.360 --> 01:00:25.599
<v Speaker 1>to move a little bit. That's it, you really, it's not.

1343
01:00:25.719 --> 01:00:27.719
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to show off. You will be able

1344
01:00:27.760 --> 01:00:28.960
<v Speaker 1>to freak with somebody.

1345
01:00:29.039 --> 01:00:30.920
<v Speaker 2>That's why. That's why I think he wants to because

1346
01:00:30.960 --> 01:00:33.360
<v Speaker 2>he's showing her like moves, and.

1347
01:00:33.239 --> 01:00:35.679
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and these moves are not hard. There's there's

1348
01:00:35.719 --> 01:00:37.079
<v Speaker 1>one that's almost a great vine, y'all.

1349
01:00:37.599 --> 01:00:40.519
<v Speaker 2>There's a great vine. There is a greapevine one hundred percent,

1350
01:00:40.920 --> 01:00:43.760
<v Speaker 2>but like and I'm just gonna scud ahead, way ahead.

1351
01:00:43.840 --> 01:00:45.880
<v Speaker 2>Later on in the movie, there's a moment where he's

1352
01:00:46.000 --> 01:00:48.639
<v Speaker 2>like hit it, Like why aren't you hitting it? I'm like,

1353
01:00:48.920 --> 01:00:51.599
<v Speaker 2>I'm like why He may as well be being like, girl,

1354
01:00:51.599 --> 01:00:55.000
<v Speaker 2>your extension is off? And then like when did Derek

1355
01:00:55.079 --> 01:00:56.360
<v Speaker 2>become a choreographer?

1356
01:00:56.840 --> 01:00:59.400
<v Speaker 1>So Sarah agrees to meet up with him after school

1357
01:00:59.440 --> 01:01:01.760
<v Speaker 1>to work on her moves, and she thanks him for

1358
01:01:01.840 --> 01:01:05.039
<v Speaker 1>walking her home and they smile at each other. Kiss, kiss,

1359
01:01:05.159 --> 01:01:06.039
<v Speaker 1>kiss kiss.

1360
01:01:06.199 --> 01:01:09.320
<v Speaker 2>Sarah walks in to like, I don't know, it's probably

1361
01:01:09.320 --> 01:01:12.440
<v Speaker 2>like midnight ish, I'm guessing, and it's not that late

1362
01:01:12.480 --> 01:01:14.599
<v Speaker 2>because they had to leave the club pretty fast. Yeah,

1363
01:01:14.639 --> 01:01:17.360
<v Speaker 2>and her father's upset that she wasn't home when he

1364
01:01:17.400 --> 01:01:20.039
<v Speaker 2>came home on a break from his gig at the club.

1365
01:01:20.159 --> 01:01:22.280
<v Speaker 2>He's like, well, I didn't go back to the club

1366
01:01:22.280 --> 01:01:24.199
<v Speaker 2>because I got freaked out that you weren't home, and

1367
01:01:24.239 --> 01:01:26.760
<v Speaker 2>now I missed half a night's work worrying about you.

1368
01:01:27.119 --> 01:01:29.920
<v Speaker 2>And Sarah's like, well, you weren't interested in being a

1369
01:01:29.960 --> 01:01:32.079
<v Speaker 2>father in me for the last seventeen years, so I

1370
01:01:32.119 --> 01:01:34.599
<v Speaker 2>don't know why you care now. And I'm fine. I'm

1371
01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:37.239
<v Speaker 2>an adult. I can take care of myself. He snaps

1372
01:01:37.239 --> 01:01:39.559
<v Speaker 2>at her, and he's like, look, I don't need much.

1373
01:01:39.599 --> 01:01:42.079
<v Speaker 2>I just need to know where you're going and when

1374
01:01:42.119 --> 01:01:45.400
<v Speaker 2>you think you'll be home. These are very basic tenets

1375
01:01:45.440 --> 01:01:48.800
<v Speaker 2>of child adult behavior. Just give me, throw me a bone.

1376
01:01:48.920 --> 01:01:51.599
<v Speaker 1>I read Dadding for Dummies and they say I should

1377
01:01:51.719 --> 01:01:52.440
<v Speaker 1>know where you are.

1378
01:01:52.639 --> 01:01:55.519
<v Speaker 2>But he's not wrong, No, he's not wrong, like leave

1379
01:01:55.559 --> 01:01:58.639
<v Speaker 2>a note, went out with friends, will be back by

1380
01:01:58.960 --> 01:02:01.639
<v Speaker 2>Because honestly, with this dad, if she said we'll be

1381
01:02:01.719 --> 01:02:04.800
<v Speaker 2>back by three am, he'd be like, well I don't love.

1382
01:02:04.679 --> 01:02:07.239
<v Speaker 1>It, but okay, well yeah, he has no standing and.

1383
01:02:07.199 --> 01:02:09.760
<v Speaker 2>As long as she's back by three am, it's fine.

1384
01:02:10.159 --> 01:02:11.440
<v Speaker 2>He's not gonna ground her.

1385
01:02:11.639 --> 01:02:15.960
<v Speaker 1>We cut to our first dance montage, Derek teaches Sarah

1386
01:02:15.960 --> 01:02:17.920
<v Speaker 1>how to stand, how to sit, how to grunt, along

1387
01:02:17.920 --> 01:02:19.440
<v Speaker 1>with some real slick dance moves.

1388
01:02:19.639 --> 01:02:21.760
<v Speaker 2>There's a moment here where he's like teaching her how

1389
01:02:21.840 --> 01:02:25.880
<v Speaker 2>to manspread? Yeah, why man spreading? What part of dancing involved?

1390
01:02:25.920 --> 01:02:26.000
<v Speaker 3>Like?

1391
01:02:26.079 --> 01:02:29.480
<v Speaker 2>Is it because his budding choreographer brain. He's like, I

1392
01:02:29.519 --> 01:02:31.559
<v Speaker 2>need her to be able to open up her hips. Yeah,

1393
01:02:31.559 --> 01:02:32.880
<v Speaker 2>And the only way I could do that is to

1394
01:02:32.920 --> 01:02:34.679
<v Speaker 2>be like, you know how when people man spread on

1395
01:02:34.719 --> 01:02:35.280
<v Speaker 2>the subway.

1396
01:02:35.480 --> 01:02:37.199
<v Speaker 1>Let me show you, you know, when you have a

1397
01:02:37.280 --> 01:02:39.960
<v Speaker 1>real sickle dick and you have to and you have

1398
01:02:40.000 --> 01:02:40.719
<v Speaker 1>to make room for the.

1399
01:02:40.679 --> 01:02:42.760
<v Speaker 2>Curve, you know how, like when men take up so

1400
01:02:42.920 --> 01:02:45.119
<v Speaker 2>much fucking space. I need you to take up space

1401
01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:46.000
<v Speaker 2>right now, Sarah?

1402
01:02:46.079 --> 01:02:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, like instead of.

1403
01:02:47.320 --> 01:02:49.159
<v Speaker 2>Like, don't contract expand.

1404
01:02:49.800 --> 01:02:51.360
<v Speaker 1>So they're in the cafeteria for this one. At the

1405
01:02:51.440 --> 01:02:52.840
<v Speaker 1>end of the session, he tells her they're gonna have

1406
01:02:52.840 --> 01:02:54.679
<v Speaker 1>to find someplace else to practice, and I'm like, why

1407
01:02:54.800 --> 01:02:57.000
<v Speaker 1>what if you could go here? Whatever, it doesn't matter.

1408
01:02:57.519 --> 01:02:58.639
<v Speaker 1>They move on, maybe because.

1409
01:02:58.440 --> 01:03:00.960
<v Speaker 2>It's too embarrassing to be mean.

1410
01:03:03.239 --> 01:03:06.199
<v Speaker 1>She demonstrates a bit of her ballet skills and when

1411
01:03:06.199 --> 01:03:07.679
<v Speaker 1>he's like, what the hell was that because she does

1412
01:03:07.719 --> 01:03:09.239
<v Speaker 1>like an arabesque whatever.

1413
01:03:09.440 --> 01:03:12.599
<v Speaker 2>Don't pretend you don't know those dance moves. Derek, do

1414
01:03:12.639 --> 01:03:14.920
<v Speaker 2>you know why he has today? He's like, we gotta

1415
01:03:14.920 --> 01:03:17.760
<v Speaker 2>go somewhere else. It's because he realizes his friends are

1416
01:03:17.760 --> 01:03:20.039
<v Speaker 2>gonna mock him for being the choreographer that he is.

1417
01:03:20.280 --> 01:03:22.880
<v Speaker 1>God, I'm a dancer like his dancer dancer.

1418
01:03:23.039 --> 01:03:25.239
<v Speaker 2>His friends are gonna ras him to death and be like,

1419
01:03:25.280 --> 01:03:27.280
<v Speaker 2>you were supposed to be a surgeon and now you

1420
01:03:27.320 --> 01:03:29.320
<v Speaker 2>want to be Twila Tharp. Fuck you.

1421
01:03:29.480 --> 01:03:32.199
<v Speaker 1>Man. If Snookie finds out about this, he's never gonna

1422
01:03:32.199 --> 01:03:32.679
<v Speaker 1>hear the end of it.

1423
01:03:32.679 --> 01:03:33.840
<v Speaker 2>He's never gonna hear the end of it.

1424
01:03:34.559 --> 01:03:37.360
<v Speaker 1>So he's very impressed. He's like, what was that? And

1425
01:03:37.400 --> 01:03:38.679
<v Speaker 1>she's like, I don't want to talk about it. It's

1426
01:03:38.719 --> 01:03:40.800
<v Speaker 1>not a big deal, and she walks away and he says,

1427
01:03:41.360 --> 01:03:42.079
<v Speaker 1>I think it is.

1428
01:03:42.679 --> 01:03:45.320
<v Speaker 2>The Next day at school, Sarah's walking into the girl's room.

1429
01:03:45.440 --> 01:03:48.159
<v Speaker 2>She sees Kai in there with a girl and Kai

1430
01:03:48.320 --> 01:03:50.960
<v Speaker 2>is like slamming this girl against the wall and being like,

1431
01:03:50.960 --> 01:03:53.039
<v Speaker 2>where's my money? Where's my money? Yeah, And for a

1432
01:03:53.119 --> 01:03:55.599
<v Speaker 2>minute I was like, are they wait? Oh my god,

1433
01:03:55.679 --> 01:03:58.400
<v Speaker 2>is he supposed to be a pimp. That's fucking horrible.

1434
01:03:58.400 --> 01:04:00.159
<v Speaker 1>I had the same thought.

1435
01:04:00.400 --> 01:04:02.800
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh my god. And then it's like, no,

1436
01:04:02.960 --> 01:04:04.920
<v Speaker 2>she bought drugs from him and then didn't pay him

1437
01:04:04.960 --> 01:04:07.679
<v Speaker 2>back or like pay him for the witch PSA. I

1438
01:04:07.679 --> 01:04:09.559
<v Speaker 2>guess for this episode. I never thought i'd have to

1439
01:04:09.599 --> 01:04:11.760
<v Speaker 2>say this, but drug dealers, if you're listening to us,

1440
01:04:12.280 --> 01:04:14.840
<v Speaker 2>get the money up front. What are you doing? Why

1441
01:04:14.880 --> 01:04:16.519
<v Speaker 2>are you selling drugs on layaway.

1442
01:04:17.320 --> 01:04:19.440
<v Speaker 1>You can't sell drugs on spec That is a.

1443
01:04:19.400 --> 01:04:22.679
<v Speaker 2>Bad business practice. You get the money up front for

1444
01:04:22.840 --> 01:04:26.119
<v Speaker 2>the drugs. I can't believe I have to tell anyone this.

1445
01:04:28.079 --> 01:04:30.239
<v Speaker 1>I thought this was if they teach us in drug.

1446
01:04:30.079 --> 01:04:33.480
<v Speaker 2>Dealing school, in drug one oh one, in drug pushing

1447
01:04:33.480 --> 01:04:34.079
<v Speaker 2>one on one.

1448
01:04:34.199 --> 01:04:35.679
<v Speaker 1>I mean, while we're on this topic, do we also

1449
01:04:35.760 --> 01:04:37.760
<v Speaker 1>tell them not to get high on their own supply it?

1450
01:04:37.880 --> 01:04:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Does he get high of her?

1451
01:04:39.039 --> 01:04:39.119
<v Speaker 1>No?

1452
01:04:39.199 --> 01:04:43.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying just doing that, Oh, fair enough, blanket. Look,

1453
01:04:43.480 --> 01:04:46.320
<v Speaker 2>we should start our own drug dealing one on one podcast.

1454
01:04:46.719 --> 01:04:48.280
<v Speaker 2>I feel like there is a there is a need

1455
01:04:48.320 --> 01:04:50.599
<v Speaker 2>for this in the world. People need to know all

1456
01:04:50.639 --> 01:04:53.880
<v Speaker 2>the all the major pitfalls one can take when entering

1457
01:04:54.119 --> 01:04:57.199
<v Speaker 2>the drug dealing world. Yeah, when opening your own drug

1458
01:04:57.199 --> 01:04:57.920
<v Speaker 2>habitat ury.

1459
01:04:58.039 --> 01:05:01.039
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely everyone likes everyone likes it. A spoke menu. We'll

1460
01:05:01.039 --> 01:05:01.639
<v Speaker 1>just start there.

1461
01:05:01.719 --> 01:05:04.639
<v Speaker 2>We'll start there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, make sure you under

1462
01:05:04.719 --> 01:05:06.280
<v Speaker 2>you know what, don't get high on your own supply,

1463
01:05:06.360 --> 01:05:09.639
<v Speaker 2>but also know what you're dealing with. Yeah, know what

1464
01:05:09.679 --> 01:05:12.519
<v Speaker 2>you have, Know what your product is, know your own worth,

1465
01:05:12.639 --> 01:05:16.320
<v Speaker 2>know your own worth. Yes, yes, let's shark tank this shit.

1466
01:05:18.840 --> 01:05:21.679
<v Speaker 2>But anyway turns out Yeah, girl owes him money for drugs.

1467
01:05:22.159 --> 01:05:25.280
<v Speaker 2>Sarah comes in. She sees Kai slapping this girl around

1468
01:05:25.320 --> 01:05:28.559
<v Speaker 2>and she's like, hey, stop it, as one would. Kai

1469
01:05:28.920 --> 01:05:31.199
<v Speaker 2>does not take kindly to this. The girl runs away.

1470
01:05:31.840 --> 01:05:33.760
<v Speaker 2>All of Sarah's fight kind of drains out of her.

1471
01:05:33.800 --> 01:05:36.159
<v Speaker 2>You see it really quick. She's like, oh fuck, I've overstepped.

1472
01:05:36.280 --> 01:05:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

1473
01:05:36.800 --> 01:05:38.960
<v Speaker 2>He like gets really in her face and he's like

1474
01:05:39.679 --> 01:05:42.480
<v Speaker 2>you do not get in my way. Do you understand?

1475
01:05:42.519 --> 01:05:45.039
<v Speaker 2>And she's like I understand, and then he leaves her alone.

1476
01:05:45.159 --> 01:05:47.280
<v Speaker 1>Yep. We cut to Sarah and Derek. They're walking to

1477
01:05:47.320 --> 01:05:50.440
<v Speaker 1>another dance practice and she asks him about his relationship

1478
01:05:50.440 --> 01:05:52.719
<v Speaker 1>with Kai. She's like, that guy's scary. Why do you

1479
01:05:52.719 --> 01:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>hang out with him? Derek says, look, Kai has a

1480
01:05:55.400 --> 01:05:57.480
<v Speaker 1>good heart. I know. He's like he's had a rough life.

1481
01:05:57.519 --> 01:05:59.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm never going to abandon him, and he explains it.

1482
01:05:59.559 --> 01:06:02.320
<v Speaker 1>A while he and Ki were caught robbing a liquor

1483
01:06:02.360 --> 01:06:05.079
<v Speaker 1>store and they were running and they went in different directions.

1484
01:06:05.079 --> 01:06:07.199
<v Speaker 1>It looked like Derek was gonna get caught, and Kai

1485
01:06:07.320 --> 01:06:10.400
<v Speaker 1>started to make noise and sacrificed himself, so Derek got

1486
01:06:10.440 --> 01:06:13.599
<v Speaker 1>away scott free. Yeah, and then he absolutely refused to

1487
01:06:13.639 --> 01:06:15.480
<v Speaker 1>give up Derek's name to the DA so he went

1488
01:06:15.519 --> 01:06:19.880
<v Speaker 1>to Juvie and Derek saw no consequences. Yeah, which rightfully

1489
01:06:19.920 --> 01:06:21.320
<v Speaker 1>would inspire a lot of loyalty.

1490
01:06:21.440 --> 01:06:23.360
<v Speaker 2>That is good writing, I tell you, because as soon

1491
01:06:23.400 --> 01:06:25.360
<v Speaker 2>as he said that, I was like, oh, because I

1492
01:06:25.480 --> 01:06:28.599
<v Speaker 2>was already with this relationship, just like the two actors

1493
01:06:28.599 --> 01:06:31.239
<v Speaker 2>have good chemistry together, and I believe that they've been

1494
01:06:31.280 --> 01:06:33.599
<v Speaker 2>lifelong friends and one just went one way and the

1495
01:06:33.599 --> 01:06:36.320
<v Speaker 2>other one went the other. But this now is like okay,

1496
01:06:36.719 --> 01:06:38.639
<v Speaker 2>because also I'm like, why doesn't Sarah just say this

1497
01:06:38.679 --> 01:06:40.639
<v Speaker 2>guy threw me up against the wall and threatened me.

1498
01:06:41.239 --> 01:06:43.840
<v Speaker 2>Right after Derek says that you really can't be like

1499
01:06:44.880 --> 01:06:46.639
<v Speaker 2>this guy through we have against the wall and threatened me,

1500
01:06:46.679 --> 01:06:47.159
<v Speaker 2>you have to be.

1501
01:06:47.119 --> 01:06:49.719
<v Speaker 1>Like Okay, she's learning from that first scene, she's not

1502
01:06:49.760 --> 01:06:53.880
<v Speaker 1>calling someone an asshole until she understands the relationship they

1503
01:06:53.880 --> 01:06:56.679
<v Speaker 1>have with the person she's talking to. Good job, Sarah,

1504
01:06:56.840 --> 01:06:59.519
<v Speaker 1>So Sarah backs off the Kai talk. Derek asks her

1505
01:06:59.559 --> 01:07:03.760
<v Speaker 1>about her. She immediately gets extremely defensive, and he's like,

1506
01:07:03.960 --> 01:07:06.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm just like, what, how's your relationship with your mother?

1507
01:07:07.039 --> 01:07:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Like what's she like? You never talk about her? And

1508
01:07:08.800 --> 01:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>she's like she's dead and he's like, okay, sorry.

1509
01:07:14.079 --> 01:07:16.320
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know that Kai killed her.

1510
01:07:18.559 --> 01:07:21.239
<v Speaker 1>So he takes her to an abandoned furniture store that

1511
01:07:21.280 --> 01:07:24.519
<v Speaker 1>he used to work at, and there's another dance training montage.

1512
01:07:24.559 --> 01:07:26.159
<v Speaker 1>She's like, a full this. I think this is the

1513
01:07:26.280 --> 01:07:27.880
<v Speaker 1>where he's like, no, you have to hit it a

1514
01:07:27.920 --> 01:07:29.519
<v Speaker 1>full choreographer.

1515
01:07:28.920 --> 01:07:33.079
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, he is now a choreographer. He basically

1516
01:07:33.159 --> 01:07:35.760
<v Speaker 2>like you cut away from him, you cut back. He's

1517
01:07:35.800 --> 01:07:40.880
<v Speaker 2>wearing like a leotard and like and and like yoga

1518
01:07:40.880 --> 01:07:42.800
<v Speaker 2>pants and he's got a score of heround his neck

1519
01:07:42.840 --> 01:07:47.440
<v Speaker 2>and he's like again again, he's got one of those.

1520
01:07:47.320 --> 01:07:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Walking starts, slamming the walking stick to the beaty you

1521
01:07:52.840 --> 01:07:54.679
<v Speaker 1>will call me Madame Radmanova.

1522
01:07:56.760 --> 01:08:01.039
<v Speaker 2>We cut to Sarah and Shanil hanging out she Neil

1523
01:08:01.119 --> 01:08:03.880
<v Speaker 2>tells Sarah and the audience out their backstory about their

1524
01:08:03.880 --> 01:08:06.199
<v Speaker 2>mother abandoning them when they were young. She does have

1525
01:08:06.239 --> 01:08:08.320
<v Speaker 2>a heartbreaking line here where she talks about her mother's

1526
01:08:08.360 --> 01:08:10.079
<v Speaker 2>past and she says their mom was in jail for

1527
01:08:10.159 --> 01:08:13.960
<v Speaker 2>drugs and things women do for drugs, which I was like, oh,

1528
01:08:14.000 --> 01:08:18.199
<v Speaker 2>that's that's fucking heartbreaking. So yeah, they're on their own,

1529
01:08:18.640 --> 01:08:20.720
<v Speaker 2>and then they start talking a little bit about Derek.

1530
01:08:20.760 --> 01:08:22.720
<v Speaker 2>Sarah's like, so, tell me a little bit more about

1531
01:08:22.720 --> 01:08:24.920
<v Speaker 2>your brother. What's swiss he into? What's he like? Does

1532
01:08:25.239 --> 01:08:26.760
<v Speaker 2>does he like girls? Her offbeat?

1533
01:08:29.840 --> 01:08:31.119
<v Speaker 1>Does he like the other white meat? You know what

1534
01:08:31.119 --> 01:08:31.399
<v Speaker 1>I mean?

1535
01:08:32.720 --> 01:08:36.600
<v Speaker 2>And she kneels like, oh, you like Derek, And Sarah's

1536
01:08:36.640 --> 01:08:39.680
<v Speaker 2>like no. Then of course she can't keep the smile

1537
01:08:39.720 --> 01:08:42.439
<v Speaker 2>off her face. And then at that moment, we hear

1538
01:08:42.520 --> 01:08:45.600
<v Speaker 2>Derek come into the house. He's got the mail, he's

1539
01:08:45.640 --> 01:08:50.920
<v Speaker 2>thrilled he got into Georgetown, celebrating. There's big hugs all around.

1540
01:08:51.239 --> 01:08:54.479
<v Speaker 2>Derek hugs Sarah. Sarah is like red in the face

1541
01:08:54.520 --> 01:08:57.640
<v Speaker 2>from blushing, Like Derek doesn't realize like how much she

1542
01:08:57.840 --> 01:08:59.880
<v Speaker 2>likes him up until this moment is very sweet.

1543
01:09:00.039 --> 01:09:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Yep Erica, that's about halfway through the movie. Should we

1544
01:09:02.800 --> 01:09:03.600
<v Speaker 1>take a little break.

1545
01:09:03.399 --> 01:09:05.520
<v Speaker 2>Here, You know what, let's just stop the movie here,

1546
01:09:05.600 --> 01:09:08.159
<v Speaker 2>let's take a dance break. Everything good has happened. Derek

1547
01:09:08.199 --> 01:09:12.560
<v Speaker 2>got into Georgetown, Sarah's made two best friends. We're good.

1548
01:09:12.720 --> 01:09:14.039
<v Speaker 1>End of movie. End of movie.

1549
01:09:14.119 --> 01:09:15.600
<v Speaker 2>Nothing bad's gonna happen, y'all.

1550
01:09:17.800 --> 01:09:20.039
<v Speaker 1>We'll be right back to finish taking you through. Save

1551
01:09:20.199 --> 01:09:32.079
<v Speaker 1>the last dance, and we're back.

1552
01:09:32.319 --> 01:09:35.079
<v Speaker 2>We come back to find Sarah and Derek on the

1553
01:09:35.159 --> 01:09:38.319
<v Speaker 2>train on the l there now, I think officially on

1554
01:09:38.399 --> 01:09:40.600
<v Speaker 2>a date. They are like kind of snuggling a little bit,

1555
01:09:40.640 --> 01:09:44.039
<v Speaker 2>and they're cheerful and happy. And there's a white woman,

1556
01:09:45.239 --> 01:09:48.800
<v Speaker 2>an older white woman. Actually I'm giving that too much

1557
01:09:48.880 --> 01:09:53.000
<v Speaker 2>like class that inflection. She's bedraggled, she's nasty, she's a

1558
01:09:53.079 --> 01:09:55.880
<v Speaker 2>nasty old white lady, and she's giving them side eye

1559
01:09:55.880 --> 01:10:02.960
<v Speaker 2>because gross interracial coupling miscegyny ew and Sarah notices it first.

1560
01:10:03.600 --> 01:10:06.840
<v Speaker 2>She starts to like get inch closer and closer to Derek, Derek,

1561
01:10:07.119 --> 01:10:09.960
<v Speaker 2>bless him, not noticing it for a while.

1562
01:10:10.520 --> 01:10:13.199
<v Speaker 1>Derek learned at a young age to ignore racist white women.

1563
01:10:13.399 --> 01:10:17.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, who has the time? Who has the time? And

1564
01:10:17.640 --> 01:10:20.279
<v Speaker 2>Sarah finally like she's like, hey, we have an audience,

1565
01:10:20.399 --> 01:10:22.439
<v Speaker 2>and they see and Derek sees her too, and the

1566
01:10:22.479 --> 01:10:25.399
<v Speaker 2>lady's like hoop hooph, and so they decided to put

1567
01:10:25.399 --> 01:10:28.399
<v Speaker 2>on a bit of a show. So like Sarah starts

1568
01:10:28.439 --> 01:10:31.359
<v Speaker 2>to like snuggle up on Derek's neck and then they

1569
01:10:31.399 --> 01:10:34.000
<v Speaker 2>start to kiss. It's very I think they're so cute.

1570
01:10:34.039 --> 01:10:35.039
<v Speaker 2>These two are so cute.

1571
01:10:35.039 --> 01:10:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I like them together.

1572
01:10:36.039 --> 01:10:39.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and the woman is like gross, and she she

1573
01:10:39.880 --> 01:10:42.520
<v Speaker 2>actually stands up and like leaves the train. So the

1574
01:10:42.520 --> 01:10:45.119
<v Speaker 2>two of them laugh. They're like enjoying making the right

1575
01:10:45.239 --> 01:10:49.920
<v Speaker 2>the old racist uncomfortable. Excellent. All good. Right, they get

1576
01:10:49.920 --> 01:10:52.800
<v Speaker 2>off the train, they're they're walking in this neighborhood and

1577
01:10:52.880 --> 01:10:55.119
<v Speaker 2>she's like, where are we going? And Derek's like it's

1578
01:10:55.119 --> 01:10:58.000
<v Speaker 2>a surprise. And she's like, this is your celebration night

1579
01:10:58.039 --> 01:11:00.359
<v Speaker 2>for getting into Georgetown. It shouldn't be my super and

1580
01:11:00.359 --> 01:11:03.000
<v Speaker 2>he's like, well, that's the way it is. He's perfect.

1581
01:11:03.560 --> 01:11:04.960
<v Speaker 2>He is so perfect.

1582
01:11:05.199 --> 01:11:07.359
<v Speaker 1>The worst part about him is that he is too

1583
01:11:07.439 --> 01:11:09.279
<v Speaker 1>loyal to his friend who has gone to a down

1584
01:11:09.319 --> 01:11:09.840
<v Speaker 1>a dark path.

1585
01:11:10.000 --> 01:11:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's the worst thing about him. His flaw, that's

1586
01:11:12.760 --> 01:11:14.920
<v Speaker 2>the only flaw he seems to have. That and maybe

1587
01:11:14.920 --> 01:11:17.119
<v Speaker 2>he's a little too comfortable being kind of a dick

1588
01:11:17.159 --> 01:11:21.079
<v Speaker 2>in English class. Yeah, it's not even that big a deal.

1589
01:11:21.479 --> 01:11:24.359
<v Speaker 2>They walk up to the Chicago Theater advertising a performance

1590
01:11:24.399 --> 01:11:27.680
<v Speaker 2>by the Jeoffrey Ballet, and he's like, surprise, I took

1591
01:11:27.720 --> 01:11:29.840
<v Speaker 2>you to the I'm taking you to the ballet. I

1592
01:11:29.880 --> 01:11:33.600
<v Speaker 2>am a seventeen year old boy. Uh huh, I want

1593
01:11:33.600 --> 01:11:35.399
<v Speaker 2>to I want to say this out loud again, so

1594
01:11:35.520 --> 01:11:39.560
<v Speaker 2>everyone heard that I am a seventeen year old straight

1595
01:11:40.079 --> 01:11:43.640
<v Speaker 2>boy who is taking my girl to the ballet, because

1596
01:11:43.680 --> 01:11:48.239
<v Speaker 2>that's what she's into. This person doesn't exist. Yeah, this

1597
01:11:48.279 --> 01:11:52.920
<v Speaker 2>is a unicorn. Sarah's like, oh no, oh no. She starts.

1598
01:11:52.720 --> 01:11:55.199
<v Speaker 2>She starts to like get even more pale than she

1599
01:11:55.279 --> 01:11:57.640
<v Speaker 2>already is. She's like, I can't go in there. I'm sorry,

1600
01:11:57.640 --> 01:11:59.920
<v Speaker 2>I can't go into the ballet. She acts all weird.

1601
01:12:00.079 --> 01:12:02.079
<v Speaker 2>The two of them eventually do end up going in

1602
01:12:02.439 --> 01:12:07.239
<v Speaker 2>and they watch the performance of the horniest ballet the

1603
01:12:07.359 --> 01:12:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Geoffrey has ever put on.

1604
01:12:09.039 --> 01:12:13.159
<v Speaker 1>I mean like, it's inches from actual intercourse happening on stage.

1605
01:12:13.199 --> 01:12:17.079
<v Speaker 2>She's almost penetration. There's the only thing stopping penetration is

1606
01:12:17.079 --> 01:12:18.079
<v Speaker 2>a well placed dance bell.

1607
01:12:18.279 --> 01:12:20.880
<v Speaker 1>It wells played dance Bell in a thin layer of nylons.

1608
01:12:20.920 --> 01:12:21.239
<v Speaker 1>It is.

1609
01:12:21.399 --> 01:12:23.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm like, it's so funnycause I've seen Jeffrey

1610
01:12:23.960 --> 01:12:26.239
<v Speaker 2>a few times and I'm like, I don't recall them

1611
01:12:26.279 --> 01:12:27.840
<v Speaker 2>being the horniest.

1612
01:12:27.359 --> 01:12:34.079
<v Speaker 1>Dance company ever. Afterwards, Sarah is emotional and Derek asks why.

1613
01:12:34.239 --> 01:12:36.079
<v Speaker 1>She tells him that she just wants to go back

1614
01:12:36.119 --> 01:12:38.640
<v Speaker 1>to when her life made sense, when her mother was alive. Okay,

1615
01:12:38.640 --> 01:12:42.319
<v Speaker 1>so this scene is, this scene's rough, it's it's a

1616
01:12:42.439 --> 01:12:45.520
<v Speaker 1>very difficult scene. The writing is very surface. She says

1617
01:12:45.560 --> 01:12:49.000
<v Speaker 1>exactly what it is to explain to the audience exactly

1618
01:12:49.000 --> 01:12:51.600
<v Speaker 1>what she's feeling, which is not really how people talk. Yeah,

1619
01:12:51.720 --> 01:12:55.439
<v Speaker 1>and it's Julia Styles is doing her level best.

1620
01:12:55.640 --> 01:12:56.319
<v Speaker 2>This is not her fault.

1621
01:12:56.399 --> 01:12:58.159
<v Speaker 1>It's not her fault. The writing is really rough.

1622
01:12:58.439 --> 01:12:59.479
<v Speaker 2>Dancing is her fault.

1623
01:13:00.079 --> 01:13:02.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't even think that because the director should have

1624
01:13:02.399 --> 01:13:04.119
<v Speaker 1>been like, no, we're gonna hire a body double, like

1625
01:13:04.239 --> 01:13:06.720
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna get in intense, We're gonna you're gonna do

1626
01:13:06.840 --> 01:13:09.199
<v Speaker 1>like some things, but like the majority of the dancing

1627
01:13:09.239 --> 01:13:10.039
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be a body double.

1628
01:13:10.119 --> 01:13:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Are you gonna take like six months to learn ballet

1629
01:13:13.119 --> 01:13:13.800
<v Speaker 2>not two months?

1630
01:13:13.840 --> 01:13:16.279
<v Speaker 1>It still wouldn't be enough. It's still like, that's not

1631
01:13:16.319 --> 01:13:18.600
<v Speaker 1>a cut on her, that's a cut on any any

1632
01:13:18.640 --> 01:13:20.439
<v Speaker 1>twenty five year old who's gonna try to look like

1633
01:13:20.479 --> 01:13:22.479
<v Speaker 1>they've been dancing like an eighteen year old who's been

1634
01:13:22.520 --> 01:13:24.439
<v Speaker 1>dancing for seventeen years.

1635
01:13:24.560 --> 01:13:27.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna take six weeks, six weeks worth of ballet

1636
01:13:27.079 --> 01:13:29.119
<v Speaker 2>glasses at the minute we're done with this, and then

1637
01:13:29.199 --> 01:13:32.159
<v Speaker 2>show you up in a month and a half, My friend.

1638
01:13:32.159 --> 01:13:34.439
<v Speaker 1>You would be dead in two days.

1639
01:13:35.159 --> 01:13:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I would be a graceful Missy Copeland's got nothing on.

1640
01:13:41.920 --> 01:13:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Me, step aside, she's retiring anyway, all right. So Sarah

1641
01:13:46.039 --> 01:13:49.079
<v Speaker 1>breaks down. She admits that she blames herself for her

1642
01:13:49.119 --> 01:13:52.199
<v Speaker 1>mother's death. All her mother wanted was for Sarah's dreams

1643
01:13:52.239 --> 01:13:54.720
<v Speaker 1>to come true, and Sarah insisted that she'd be at

1644
01:13:54.720 --> 01:13:58.760
<v Speaker 1>the at the Juilliard audition, and it wound up killing her.

1645
01:13:59.239 --> 01:14:02.359
<v Speaker 1>She's dead because of me, Right, It's the kind.

1646
01:14:02.239 --> 01:14:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Of nonsense that like you wouldn't believe an adult, but

1647
01:14:04.560 --> 01:14:07.079
<v Speaker 2>a seventeen year old would think that. Yes, Like I'm like,

1648
01:14:07.079 --> 01:14:09.439
<v Speaker 2>all right, yeah, that's you're gonna needed some therapy, but like,

1649
01:14:09.479 --> 01:14:10.239
<v Speaker 2>it's not your fault.

1650
01:14:10.239 --> 01:14:13.479
<v Speaker 1>It's not your fault. Derek perfect again is like, your

1651
01:14:13.520 --> 01:14:16.199
<v Speaker 1>mother's death was not your fault and your mother would

1652
01:14:16.279 --> 01:14:18.159
<v Speaker 1>still want your dream to come true.

1653
01:14:18.960 --> 01:14:21.880
<v Speaker 2>Yes, got it right, Derek. That's the thing too, he

1654
01:14:21.920 --> 01:14:24.920
<v Speaker 2>can't be best boy because everything he says only a man.

1655
01:14:26.319 --> 01:14:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Everything he says makes you attracted to him, so like.

1656
01:14:29.079 --> 01:14:32.680
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm uncomfortably attracted to the teenagers in this film.

1657
01:14:32.800 --> 01:14:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Sarah says, I don't think I can do it

1658
01:14:35.680 --> 01:14:39.079
<v Speaker 1>without her, and Derek is like, look, what do you want?

1659
01:14:39.359 --> 01:14:42.079
<v Speaker 1>Do you want to go to Juilliard? And Sarah admits

1660
01:14:42.119 --> 01:14:44.640
<v Speaker 1>that she does, and Derek says, then it's up to

1661
01:14:44.680 --> 01:14:48.359
<v Speaker 1>you to make your dream come true. And he walks

1662
01:14:48.359 --> 01:14:50.720
<v Speaker 1>her home and he kisses her on her front porch

1663
01:14:51.000 --> 01:14:54.920
<v Speaker 1>and he smiles that million watt Sean Patrick Thomas smile,

1664
01:14:55.359 --> 01:14:56.960
<v Speaker 1>and then he heads home with like a spring in

1665
01:14:57.000 --> 01:15:00.520
<v Speaker 1>his step, and basements across the country flooded.

1666
01:15:00.920 --> 01:15:03.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm genuinely how did he not become a huge star?

1667
01:15:03.600 --> 01:15:03.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

1668
01:15:03.840 --> 01:15:06.199
<v Speaker 1>I literally am like, either it was it was like

1669
01:15:06.279 --> 01:15:09.199
<v Speaker 1>the racist system, or he genuinely didn't want to.

1670
01:15:09.520 --> 01:15:12.800
<v Speaker 2>What Shawn Patrick Thomas needs is Shonda Shanda, are you

1671
01:15:12.880 --> 01:15:15.880
<v Speaker 2>listening to me? You made Kerrie Washington a mega WATS star.

1672
01:15:16.039 --> 01:15:17.760
<v Speaker 2>We need you to do the same for for this

1673
01:15:17.880 --> 01:15:20.880
<v Speaker 2>kid too, because this kid, he's literally my age.

1674
01:15:21.159 --> 01:15:22.880
<v Speaker 1>We deserve to get to see that face.

1675
01:15:23.520 --> 01:15:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and that asks. Yeah, let's get really put him on.

1676
01:15:25.760 --> 01:15:28.159
<v Speaker 2>Bridgerton took the words right out of my mouth.

1677
01:15:28.239 --> 01:15:28.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

1678
01:15:28.560 --> 01:15:32.039
<v Speaker 2>So after the date, Sarah's reevaluating her life, her decisions.

1679
01:15:32.079 --> 01:15:34.600
<v Speaker 2>She goes into her closet, she takes out her point shoes,

1680
01:15:34.640 --> 01:15:38.359
<v Speaker 2>she starts practicing again. She tells Derek that Juilliard is

1681
01:15:38.399 --> 01:15:41.039
<v Speaker 2>holding auditions in Chicago next month.

1682
01:15:41.199 --> 01:15:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay, pause, yes, Paul, we have to talk about the

1683
01:15:45.560 --> 01:15:50.800
<v Speaker 1>timeline of this movie. Uh huh, Okay, So her mother

1684
01:15:51.000 --> 01:15:53.960
<v Speaker 1>passed away at this point. Let's say maybe she's been

1685
01:15:54.000 --> 01:15:59.680
<v Speaker 1>in in Chicago out in parentheses two months.

1686
01:16:01.199 --> 01:16:02.840
<v Speaker 2>Ah No, I feel like it's longer.

1687
01:16:02.920 --> 01:16:04.560
<v Speaker 1>You think it's long. So it's like like half the

1688
01:16:04.560 --> 01:16:07.000
<v Speaker 1>school year. Like, let's maybe her perhaps her mother passed

1689
01:16:07.000 --> 01:16:13.159
<v Speaker 1>away in like September October, so she auditioned in the

1690
01:16:13.239 --> 01:16:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Chicago area, presumptively in Chicago, no more than like five

1691
01:16:17.760 --> 01:16:21.640
<v Speaker 1>months ago, and now there's another Juilliard audition for admittance

1692
01:16:21.680 --> 01:16:22.079
<v Speaker 1>that fall.

1693
01:16:22.199 --> 01:16:25.880
<v Speaker 2>Julliard didn't find anyone. They were looking for Julia. They

1694
01:16:25.960 --> 01:16:30.600
<v Speaker 2>needed Julia Styles all right, oh, like they're like, no

1695
01:16:30.640 --> 01:16:33.880
<v Speaker 2>one has used a chair in their audition yet, I

1696
01:16:33.920 --> 01:16:37.239
<v Speaker 2>have thoughts about that chair. I I if the thoughts

1697
01:16:37.239 --> 01:16:39.880
<v Speaker 2>are that chair was perfect, change nothing that I agree

1698
01:16:39.880 --> 01:16:40.079
<v Speaker 2>with you.

1699
01:16:40.239 --> 01:16:46.079
<v Speaker 1>The chair also got into Juilliard. That chair expressed things.

1700
01:16:46.159 --> 01:16:48.439
<v Speaker 2>What if the chair also got it in Juilliard?

1701
01:16:48.680 --> 01:16:50.640
<v Speaker 1>What if she shows up for Juilliard and he's like,

1702
01:16:50.960 --> 01:16:51.800
<v Speaker 1>where's the chair?

1703
01:16:51.840 --> 01:16:54.359
<v Speaker 2>Where's the chair? No, we wanted the chair. We were

1704
01:16:54.399 --> 01:16:57.720
<v Speaker 2>talking to the chair, not to you. So she and

1705
01:16:57.800 --> 01:17:00.760
<v Speaker 2>Derek start to practice now in like in aband furniture

1706
01:17:00.760 --> 01:17:03.239
<v Speaker 2>store that he worked at last summer. Don't worry about it.

1707
01:17:03.359 --> 01:17:05.520
<v Speaker 2>Just don't worry about it. These two are breaking into

1708
01:17:05.520 --> 01:17:08.479
<v Speaker 2>a building, using the fire escape to get into this,

1709
01:17:08.840 --> 01:17:10.880
<v Speaker 2>and I'm like, first of all, how are there not

1710
01:17:10.960 --> 01:17:14.279
<v Speaker 2>already people squatting in there? Second of all, how are

1711
01:17:14.279 --> 01:17:16.279
<v Speaker 2>they not like is how is it not rat infested?

1712
01:17:16.760 --> 01:17:19.159
<v Speaker 2>Find something? Fight a park? I don't know.

1713
01:17:19.399 --> 01:17:23.840
<v Speaker 1>It's an abandoned building in Chicago in the winter, famously

1714
01:17:24.000 --> 01:17:24.880
<v Speaker 1>very cold.

1715
01:17:24.720 --> 01:17:27.039
<v Speaker 2>Fucking freezing in there. Good call. I forgot about the

1716
01:17:27.079 --> 01:17:30.119
<v Speaker 2>fact that it's winter. So he's like, all right, girl,

1717
01:17:30.159 --> 01:17:32.439
<v Speaker 2>we gotta get you practicing. We gotta get your ballet

1718
01:17:32.560 --> 01:17:34.680
<v Speaker 2>up to shape, and she says maybe the funniest line

1719
01:17:34.720 --> 01:17:37.640
<v Speaker 2>in the entire film. She turns to Derek and she goes,

1720
01:17:37.680 --> 01:17:40.039
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm okay with the ballet part of the audition,

1721
01:17:40.399 --> 01:17:45.359
<v Speaker 2>but I need you to help me with my free form. Paul,

1722
01:17:45.479 --> 01:17:47.399
<v Speaker 2>there was a montage you did not put in here

1723
01:17:47.439 --> 01:17:50.520
<v Speaker 2>earlier where she goes to a ballet class. And watch

1724
01:17:50.520 --> 01:17:52.479
<v Speaker 2>her at that ballet class, and I can tell you,

1725
01:17:52.520 --> 01:17:56.840
<v Speaker 2>as someone who has never taken ballets, is not a dancer,

1726
01:17:57.239 --> 01:18:02.479
<v Speaker 2>but has seen ballet, has ballet. Girl, you're not ready

1727
01:18:02.479 --> 01:18:04.439
<v Speaker 2>for the ballet part of that audition. Okay, So here's

1728
01:18:04.439 --> 01:18:06.239
<v Speaker 2>the crazy You are not fucking ready.

1729
01:18:06.560 --> 01:18:09.800
<v Speaker 1>Here's the crazy thing. They put her in a ballet class. Fine,

1730
01:18:10.159 --> 01:18:12.640
<v Speaker 1>and then they I don't know what the move is called,

1731
01:18:12.640 --> 01:18:14.319
<v Speaker 1>the move where you lift your leg back. I think

1732
01:18:14.319 --> 01:18:15.239
<v Speaker 1>it's in our basket.

1733
01:18:15.359 --> 01:18:17.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, because I don't know anything about ballet

1734
01:18:17.960 --> 01:18:19.479
<v Speaker 2>except that she is not ready.

1735
01:18:20.000 --> 01:18:23.119
<v Speaker 1>But they put her with a bunch of girls her

1736
01:18:23.159 --> 01:18:27.359
<v Speaker 1>age who are ballet dancers. So everyone else's leg is

1737
01:18:27.439 --> 01:18:31.079
<v Speaker 1>like two feet higher than Julia styles like, just have

1738
01:18:31.239 --> 01:18:34.439
<v Speaker 1>the other ballet dancers. All right, girls, we're just gonna

1739
01:18:34.479 --> 01:18:36.279
<v Speaker 1>lift our legs this high, so it looks like that's

1740
01:18:36.319 --> 01:18:37.840
<v Speaker 1>what she's being told to do.

1741
01:18:38.119 --> 01:18:41.119
<v Speaker 2>Yes, she looks terrible.

1742
01:18:41.239 --> 01:18:43.319
<v Speaker 1>She looks bad next to them, and it's not her fault.

1743
01:18:43.399 --> 01:18:44.479
<v Speaker 1>You're setting her up for failure.

1744
01:18:44.560 --> 01:18:47.640
<v Speaker 2>And she's like, no, no, don't worry about the ballet. Derek, Derek,

1745
01:18:48.800 --> 01:18:50.960
<v Speaker 2>I got it. What I need you to help me

1746
01:18:51.000 --> 01:18:54.840
<v Speaker 2>with is this? What's hip hop? What is that?

1747
01:18:55.319 --> 01:18:57.800
<v Speaker 1>So we cut to steps there is I believe it

1748
01:18:57.840 --> 01:19:00.920
<v Speaker 1>is an ice cube song that's playing with the line

1749
01:19:01.039 --> 01:19:03.239
<v Speaker 1>I got dick for days, you got asked for weeks

1750
01:19:03.840 --> 01:19:07.119
<v Speaker 1>and I have to say straight adoptee into our friend group.

1751
01:19:07.119 --> 01:19:14.079
<v Speaker 1>That's another one you could try shouting out. So Derek

1752
01:19:14.159 --> 01:19:17.479
<v Speaker 1>takes Sarah back out onto the dance floor. She's much

1753
01:19:17.520 --> 01:19:20.399
<v Speaker 1>more comfortable. They start to gather in audiences they dance,

1754
01:19:20.520 --> 01:19:21.720
<v Speaker 1>and this is one of them, like.

1755
01:19:21.680 --> 01:19:27.359
<v Speaker 2>The I hate this so much because people are like Derek, Derek.

1756
01:19:27.039 --> 01:19:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Go, Sarah, Go Sarah, And I'm like, I don't think.

1757
01:19:30.159 --> 01:19:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I genuinely don't think high school students were

1758
01:19:32.920 --> 01:19:35.199
<v Speaker 1>doing this in two thousand and one. I feel like

1759
01:19:35.760 --> 01:19:38.800
<v Speaker 1>I did this when I was in middle school. That

1760
01:19:38.960 --> 01:19:39.399
<v Speaker 1>was a thing.

1761
01:19:39.600 --> 01:19:41.760
<v Speaker 2>Also, this movie is positing They're not at like a

1762
01:19:41.800 --> 01:19:43.239
<v Speaker 2>high school dance. They're at a club.

1763
01:19:43.239 --> 01:19:43.960
<v Speaker 1>They're at a club.

1764
01:19:44.039 --> 01:19:46.640
<v Speaker 2>There are there people at this club who do not

1765
01:19:46.880 --> 01:19:50.439
<v Speaker 2>know who these two people are erect. There are adults

1766
01:19:50.479 --> 01:19:53.039
<v Speaker 2>on a date at this club. There's two people who

1767
01:19:53.119 --> 01:19:57.239
<v Speaker 2>worked a hard week at their adult jobs. They hired

1768
01:19:57.279 --> 01:20:00.800
<v Speaker 2>a babysitter. They're like, let's go to a nice let's

1769
01:20:00.840 --> 01:20:04.640
<v Speaker 2>go dancing. Yeah that is that is what's in this club.

1770
01:20:04.680 --> 01:20:07.159
<v Speaker 2>And now they have to cheer on two seventeen year

1771
01:20:07.199 --> 01:20:10.960
<v Speaker 2>olds as they're dancing badly at the club.

1772
01:20:11.479 --> 01:20:12.840
<v Speaker 1>You know what, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna run

1773
01:20:12.840 --> 01:20:14.920
<v Speaker 1>and grab a mattress pad for Erica's seat because Nicki

1774
01:20:15.000 --> 01:20:15.319
<v Speaker 1>is back.

1775
01:20:15.399 --> 01:20:18.039
<v Speaker 2>It's fine, I'm fine. I don't need Look. Is she

1776
01:20:18.319 --> 01:20:21.399
<v Speaker 2>is she the most beautiful woman I've ever seen? Maybe? Yes?

1777
01:20:22.479 --> 01:20:27.159
<v Speaker 2>Is she also breathtaking? Yes? Also yes? Can I handle it? No?

1778
01:20:27.359 --> 01:20:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Yes?

1779
01:20:27.800 --> 01:20:30.800
<v Speaker 2>No, No, I can't I can't handle it. I can't

1780
01:20:30.800 --> 01:20:31.239
<v Speaker 2>handle it.

1781
01:20:31.359 --> 01:20:34.159
<v Speaker 1>She notices them dancing. She decides she wants to cause

1782
01:20:34.199 --> 01:20:36.760
<v Speaker 1>little chaos, so she heads to the dance floor, and

1783
01:20:36.800 --> 01:20:39.359
<v Speaker 1>she inserts herself between Derek and Sarah.

1784
01:20:39.439 --> 01:20:41.800
<v Speaker 2>You can't shurt herself anywhere. She wants as far as

1785
01:20:41.840 --> 01:20:43.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm concerned Derek.

1786
01:20:44.119 --> 01:20:47.079
<v Speaker 1>The movie implies that Derek's like not really paying attention.

1787
01:20:47.720 --> 01:20:50.560
<v Speaker 1>So he starts dancing with Nicki and Sarah kind of

1788
01:20:50.880 --> 01:20:53.039
<v Speaker 1>is half dancing with Snookie, but she's also kind of

1789
01:20:53.119 --> 01:20:53.920
<v Speaker 1>left out in the cold.

1790
01:20:54.239 --> 01:20:58.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, okay, this okay. Maybe I was gonna say, like,

1791
01:20:58.239 --> 01:21:00.840
<v Speaker 2>Derek's worst trait is that he's too good. Yeah, he's

1792
01:21:00.840 --> 01:21:03.119
<v Speaker 2>too good of a friend. This I could actually be

1793
01:21:03.159 --> 01:21:03.720
<v Speaker 2>his worst trip.

1794
01:21:04.039 --> 01:21:05.000
<v Speaker 1>This is this is a fuck up.

1795
01:21:05.199 --> 01:21:07.600
<v Speaker 2>This is this is a major fuck up. He starts

1796
01:21:07.640 --> 01:21:10.880
<v Speaker 2>like dancing with her, but like, like he almost gets

1797
01:21:10.960 --> 01:21:13.600
<v Speaker 2>lost in the moment with Nikki. You know this is

1798
01:21:13.600 --> 01:21:16.800
<v Speaker 2>your ex? Yeah, you hate you know what she's trying

1799
01:21:16.840 --> 01:21:20.199
<v Speaker 2>to do. She's not like she's not playing innocent. She's like,

1800
01:21:20.359 --> 01:21:23.239
<v Speaker 2>I am here to cause chaos. And you know your

1801
01:21:23.239 --> 01:21:25.159
<v Speaker 2>girlfriend is watching, bitch, what are you doing?

1802
01:21:25.359 --> 01:21:28.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? So Sarah heads off the floor. She's pouting on

1803
01:21:28.199 --> 01:21:30.920
<v Speaker 1>the sidelines, and Kai spots her and he's like, great,

1804
01:21:30.960 --> 01:21:32.800
<v Speaker 1>here's another chance to put this bitch in her place.

1805
01:21:33.239 --> 01:21:35.560
<v Speaker 1>He walks over and he tells you that you never

1806
01:21:35.640 --> 01:21:37.960
<v Speaker 1>look as good as she does with him. That's oil

1807
01:21:38.319 --> 01:21:41.000
<v Speaker 1>your milk. Ain't no point in trying to mix, and

1808
01:21:41.000 --> 01:21:43.920
<v Speaker 1>Paul screams at the TV it's oil and water. I

1809
01:21:43.960 --> 01:21:45.520
<v Speaker 1>get it. I know it's a black and white thing.

1810
01:21:45.560 --> 01:21:48.239
<v Speaker 1>I understand, but like, find a better metaphor then.

1811
01:21:48.840 --> 01:21:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Also, just just be like you're you're seven at best,

1812
01:21:53.039 --> 01:21:57.119
<v Speaker 2>and she's a fucking twelve. Let's not even bring race

1813
01:21:57.159 --> 01:21:57.560
<v Speaker 2>into this.

1814
01:21:58.760 --> 01:22:01.640
<v Speaker 1>At that point, Derek, he notices that he's been titmatized

1815
01:22:01.680 --> 01:22:04.560
<v Speaker 1>by Nikki and he heads over to Sarah. He says,

1816
01:22:04.880 --> 01:22:07.800
<v Speaker 1>he was just dancing. There is nothing between me and her.

1817
01:22:07.880 --> 01:22:09.640
<v Speaker 1>He's like, you were dancing with Snookie. I was dancing

1818
01:22:09.640 --> 01:22:11.520
<v Speaker 1>with her, not a big deal. I didn't mean to

1819
01:22:11.600 --> 01:22:14.800
<v Speaker 1>hurt your feelings. And he apologizes so like, even when

1820
01:22:14.840 --> 01:22:17.560
<v Speaker 1>he fucks up, this seventeen year old boy immediately is like,

1821
01:22:18.000 --> 01:22:20.800
<v Speaker 1>I fucked up. I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to

1822
01:22:21.119 --> 01:22:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Please forgive me.

1823
01:22:22.680 --> 01:22:25.840
<v Speaker 2>He's so good. God, damn it, Derek, You're perfect.

1824
01:22:26.479 --> 01:22:28.880
<v Speaker 1>So she lets it go. She takes him back to

1825
01:22:28.920 --> 01:22:32.359
<v Speaker 1>her place. She mentions that her father will be gone

1826
01:22:32.479 --> 01:22:35.039
<v Speaker 1>all night. And we know what that means is that

1827
01:22:35.159 --> 01:22:38.119
<v Speaker 1>the express train to a dick down's entrance music.

1828
01:22:38.159 --> 01:22:40.960
<v Speaker 2>I hear, are these two kids gonna bone down? And

1829
01:22:41.039 --> 01:22:44.520
<v Speaker 2>the most uncomfortable mattress have ever made? Yeah, do you

1830
01:22:44.520 --> 01:22:46.359
<v Speaker 2>think they pulled out the couch and they just fucked

1831
01:22:46.359 --> 01:22:46.840
<v Speaker 2>on the couch?

1832
01:22:46.960 --> 01:22:48.399
<v Speaker 1>I hope they fucked on Roy's bed.

1833
01:22:48.760 --> 01:22:51.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, that's worse than the couch.

1834
01:22:52.640 --> 01:22:53.239
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

1835
01:22:53.479 --> 01:22:55.560
<v Speaker 2>I think the couch is better than Broyce Orr back.

1836
01:22:55.479 --> 01:22:57.319
<v Speaker 1>In the Mystic's a thing where like where like what

1837
01:22:57.439 --> 01:22:58.520
<v Speaker 1>is the bigger boner killer?

1838
01:22:58.840 --> 01:23:02.239
<v Speaker 2>There is no chance that the mattress on Roy's bed

1839
01:23:02.760 --> 01:23:05.640
<v Speaker 2>isn't a fucking crime scene.

1840
01:23:05.319 --> 01:23:06.199
<v Speaker 1>You know what. That's fair.

1841
01:23:06.279 --> 01:23:09.359
<v Speaker 2>There's no chance that the mattress on Roy's bed wasn't like,

1842
01:23:09.760 --> 01:23:13.159
<v Speaker 2>wasn't found on the street. Yeah, dragged into that apartment.

1843
01:23:13.399 --> 01:23:15.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and you know what, we did skip over this part,

1844
01:23:15.119 --> 01:23:17.079
<v Speaker 1>but he doesn't mention in the beginning that he put

1845
01:23:17.119 --> 01:23:20.159
<v Speaker 1>a new mattress on the pullout. Yes, so she is

1846
01:23:20.319 --> 01:23:21.800
<v Speaker 1>that mattress is fresh.

1847
01:23:21.760 --> 01:23:24.840
<v Speaker 2>The pullout couch, Like, it's gotta be cleaner than that

1848
01:23:24.880 --> 01:23:25.800
<v Speaker 2>mattress than ratchess.

1849
01:23:25.800 --> 01:23:26.359
<v Speaker 1>Are You're right?

1850
01:23:26.439 --> 01:23:28.119
<v Speaker 2>I want to in my because I don't want to

1851
01:23:28.159 --> 01:23:30.640
<v Speaker 2>think about these two hot people taking their clothes off,

1852
01:23:31.439 --> 01:23:33.319
<v Speaker 2>getting ready for the moment, and then one of them

1853
01:23:33.359 --> 01:23:35.039
<v Speaker 2>being like hang on and like trying to pull out

1854
01:23:35.079 --> 01:23:35.520
<v Speaker 2>the couch.

1855
01:23:35.560 --> 01:23:37.119
<v Speaker 1>You got to pull it out before you start getting

1856
01:23:37.159 --> 01:23:38.319
<v Speaker 1>in the moment, you guys.

1857
01:23:38.520 --> 01:23:40.399
<v Speaker 2>Because there's just nothing sexier.

1858
01:23:40.680 --> 01:23:43.479
<v Speaker 1>I usually don't advocate for the pull out method, but

1859
01:23:43.600 --> 01:23:44.600
<v Speaker 1>in this case.

1860
01:23:44.359 --> 01:23:46.239
<v Speaker 2>You've got to pull out first. You gotta pull out

1861
01:23:46.279 --> 01:23:50.000
<v Speaker 2>early and first. Like, there's nothing less sexy than watching

1862
01:23:50.000 --> 01:23:51.199
<v Speaker 2>someone try to pull out a.

1863
01:23:51.159 --> 01:23:55.119
<v Speaker 1>Couch, porking it up, like I gotta get it this time.

1864
01:23:55.520 --> 01:23:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Come on to get it at the right angle.

1865
01:23:58.199 --> 01:23:59.640
<v Speaker 1>Almost there, almost there.

1866
01:23:59.439 --> 01:24:02.119
<v Speaker 2>You're as out. You're pulling up that couch.

1867
01:24:02.840 --> 01:24:08.159
<v Speaker 1>Just showing full hole of the person behind you. Then

1868
01:24:08.199 --> 01:24:11.159
<v Speaker 1>you slip and you fall over, pressed tam on the floor.

1869
01:24:11.279 --> 01:24:14.680
<v Speaker 2>You just go, God, damn it. The other person's like,

1870
01:24:14.800 --> 01:24:16.279
<v Speaker 2>I told you you got to go.

1871
01:24:16.239 --> 01:24:19.279
<v Speaker 1>At an angle, get your dick caught in it.

1872
01:24:28.880 --> 01:24:31.199
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, let's just hope they just fuck on the couch.

1873
01:24:31.560 --> 01:24:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Young.

1874
01:24:31.800 --> 01:24:33.680
<v Speaker 2>They're young, they're athletic, they can do it.

1875
01:24:33.800 --> 01:24:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

1876
01:24:34.800 --> 01:24:36.920
<v Speaker 2>A couple of things I love about this scene. You

1877
01:24:37.039 --> 01:24:40.560
<v Speaker 2>rarely see a high school movie where there's a sex

1878
01:24:40.560 --> 01:24:44.520
<v Speaker 2>scene where there's not like like agonizing.

1879
01:24:43.880 --> 01:24:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Over it first, or consequences after.

1880
01:24:45.880 --> 01:24:49.760
<v Speaker 2>Or consequences afterwards, exactly where there's like this this. I

1881
01:24:49.800 --> 01:24:51.960
<v Speaker 2>remember even ten years ago. The first time I saw

1882
01:24:52.000 --> 01:24:54.920
<v Speaker 2>this movie, I remember thinking, oh, that's something I've never

1883
01:24:54.920 --> 01:24:55.640
<v Speaker 2>seen before.

1884
01:24:55.880 --> 01:24:59.199
<v Speaker 1>Kudos to not only them getting to bang it out

1885
01:24:59.239 --> 01:25:01.239
<v Speaker 1>on the couch because father's gone all night, but her

1886
01:25:01.239 --> 01:25:03.199
<v Speaker 1>father being gone all night means we were spared a

1887
01:25:03.239 --> 01:25:05.600
<v Speaker 1>scene of the white man explaining jazz to the young

1888
01:25:05.600 --> 01:25:06.079
<v Speaker 1>black man.

1889
01:25:06.359 --> 01:25:09.199
<v Speaker 2>Oh, although honestly I would have loved that. Yeah, would

1890
01:25:09.239 --> 01:25:11.600
<v Speaker 2>have loved that for him to be like, let's talk

1891
01:25:11.640 --> 01:25:17.439
<v Speaker 2>about jazz, okay everyone, sweet sex scene, lovely buckle up

1892
01:25:18.359 --> 01:25:21.439
<v Speaker 2>movies about take a hard turn. We cut to a diner.

1893
01:25:21.680 --> 01:25:24.159
<v Speaker 2>Derek is like walks in. He sits with Kai and

1894
01:25:24.199 --> 01:25:26.319
<v Speaker 2>a couple of their friends. They all start making fun

1895
01:25:26.359 --> 01:25:28.479
<v Speaker 2>of him for dating a white girl and he's like, yeah,

1896
01:25:28.520 --> 01:25:31.199
<v Speaker 2>well you know. And then Kai is like, so, anyway,

1897
01:25:31.680 --> 01:25:37.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm planning a raid across town cause there's some drug

1898
01:25:37.239 --> 01:25:39.800
<v Speaker 2>dealers who are trying to encroach on my territory and

1899
01:25:39.840 --> 01:25:42.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm not into that. And I'm thinking drive by, Yeah,

1900
01:25:43.039 --> 01:25:46.319
<v Speaker 2>what are we thinking? That's no bad ideas in a brainstorm,

1901
01:25:46.840 --> 01:25:50.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna start with drive by. And everyone's like, wait,

1902
01:25:50.439 --> 01:25:51.880
<v Speaker 2>what you want to do a drive by? And he's like,

1903
01:25:51.920 --> 01:25:54.560
<v Speaker 2>I know what you're thinking, don't worry, I have a gun,

1904
01:25:55.000 --> 01:25:59.479
<v Speaker 2>and then he shows that his gun, and Derek's like, ooh, okay,

1905
01:26:00.119 --> 01:26:02.560
<v Speaker 2>this is all terrible. Maybe we don't do any of this.

1906
01:26:02.680 --> 01:26:05.479
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you stop dealing drugs. You just fucking go to

1907
01:26:05.560 --> 01:26:08.600
<v Speaker 2>school like a normal kid, and like try to like

1908
01:26:09.079 --> 01:26:11.960
<v Speaker 2>educate yourself and go to college and get a job

1909
01:26:12.039 --> 01:26:13.680
<v Speaker 2>and just be a person in the world that's not

1910
01:26:13.800 --> 01:26:17.600
<v Speaker 2>like a gun slinging drug dealer. Yeah, and guys like, no,

1911
01:26:17.720 --> 01:26:18.600
<v Speaker 2>that sounds real boring.

1912
01:26:18.640 --> 01:26:21.279
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna do this. I like my idea better, thank

1913
01:26:21.319 --> 01:26:24.039
<v Speaker 3>you for the idea. But no, yeah, no, no, excellent.

1914
01:26:24.079 --> 01:26:26.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm so glad I'm getting all the into this. But

1915
01:26:26.880 --> 01:26:28.079
<v Speaker 3>that sounds so boring.

1916
01:26:28.239 --> 01:26:29.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I don't want to do it.

1917
01:26:30.720 --> 01:26:32.960
<v Speaker 1>We cut to the girls playing basketball in a gym

1918
01:26:33.000 --> 01:26:35.479
<v Speaker 1>class while Derek Kai and the boys play a pickup

1919
01:26:35.520 --> 01:26:36.960
<v Speaker 1>game in the park. I don't know if it's supposed

1920
01:26:36.960 --> 01:26:39.720
<v Speaker 1>to be happening simultaneously. I don't know why the girls

1921
01:26:39.760 --> 01:26:42.399
<v Speaker 1>would be in school while these Maybe maybe it's not

1922
01:26:42.479 --> 01:26:44.239
<v Speaker 1>really simultaneous, but I think.

1923
01:26:44.119 --> 01:26:45.920
<v Speaker 2>It's like to show that, like, look, the boys are

1924
01:26:45.960 --> 01:26:48.199
<v Speaker 2>playing like nicely and the girls are not.

1925
01:26:49.640 --> 01:26:53.039
<v Speaker 1>Tensions escalate in both games with Sarah and Nikki getting

1926
01:26:53.039 --> 01:26:55.279
<v Speaker 1>into a brawl while the boys get hit by a

1927
01:26:55.399 --> 01:26:57.600
<v Speaker 1>drive by, though no one is killed, right, they hear

1928
01:26:57.640 --> 01:26:59.680
<v Speaker 1>the gunshots, they all they all go to the ground.

1929
01:27:00.119 --> 01:27:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Snookie's there, Derek's there, Kai is there, the other like

1930
01:27:03.600 --> 01:27:05.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, bit players are all there, is there.

1931
01:27:05.319 --> 01:27:06.680
<v Speaker 2>No one even gets hit. I don't think.

1932
01:27:06.840 --> 01:27:10.159
<v Speaker 1>So the movie is starting to like it's starting to

1933
01:27:10.199 --> 01:27:14.039
<v Speaker 1>hit the stereotypes really hard, right, Like in the beginning

1934
01:27:14.079 --> 01:27:16.279
<v Speaker 1>of the movie when when shaneil had it had was

1935
01:27:16.319 --> 01:27:18.520
<v Speaker 1>a teen mom, right, I was like, oh, but the

1936
01:27:18.520 --> 01:27:21.439
<v Speaker 1>movie is like not portraying her as like, you know,

1937
01:27:21.479 --> 01:27:24.039
<v Speaker 1>she has no future, Like it's not it. This is

1938
01:27:24.039 --> 01:27:26.119
<v Speaker 1>a thing that happened and she's dealing with it and

1939
01:27:26.159 --> 01:27:28.520
<v Speaker 1>she's still going to school and she has a support system,

1940
01:27:28.600 --> 01:27:32.119
<v Speaker 1>and like there are that's good representation, right, Like it's

1941
01:27:32.159 --> 01:27:34.920
<v Speaker 1>part of her life and there are millions of young

1942
01:27:34.960 --> 01:27:37.600
<v Speaker 1>women out there that are experiencing this. Great right, But

1943
01:27:37.640 --> 01:27:39.760
<v Speaker 1>then we start to get into more of the drug

1944
01:27:39.800 --> 01:27:42.319
<v Speaker 1>stuff and can we deepen this a little bit? This

1945
01:27:42.479 --> 01:27:46.880
<v Speaker 1>is first thought yeah in the hood? Yeah, and and

1946
01:27:46.960 --> 01:27:49.560
<v Speaker 1>like like Kai, I think I think the performance of

1947
01:27:49.600 --> 01:27:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Kai is good, but like he doesn't get much depth

1948
01:27:51.760 --> 01:27:54.600
<v Speaker 1>as a character. He kind of gets depth from Derek's

1949
01:27:54.640 --> 01:27:58.000
<v Speaker 1>story and Derek liking him and wanting to not lose

1950
01:27:58.039 --> 01:27:59.800
<v Speaker 1>him as a friend and stuff, but like he you know,

1951
01:28:00.119 --> 01:28:00.960
<v Speaker 1>learn about his.

1952
01:28:00.880 --> 01:28:02.920
<v Speaker 2>Life now that I think about it, they don't really

1953
01:28:02.960 --> 01:28:06.039
<v Speaker 2>go deep on anyone except for Sarah and Shanil. They

1954
01:28:06.039 --> 01:28:08.079
<v Speaker 2>don't really even good that deep on Derek, right, because

1955
01:28:08.079 --> 01:28:09.640
<v Speaker 2>he has to be perfect. He has to be perfect.

1956
01:28:09.960 --> 01:28:12.039
<v Speaker 1>It's perfect. It's perfection all the way down with that one.

1957
01:28:12.039 --> 01:28:14.399
<v Speaker 2>There's really nothing. Yeah, there's just he likes Sarah. He

1958
01:28:14.600 --> 01:28:16.880
<v Speaker 2>likes school, I guess, and that's it, and he's a

1959
01:28:16.960 --> 01:28:18.840
<v Speaker 2>good friend. Yeah, But like, they don't go deep on

1960
01:28:19.039 --> 01:28:21.199
<v Speaker 2>those two are truly the only characters that get any

1961
01:28:21.279 --> 01:28:24.560
<v Speaker 2>kind of like arc are Shanil and Sarah. None of

1962
01:28:24.600 --> 01:28:27.680
<v Speaker 2>the boys get that, which is a little disappointing now

1963
01:28:27.720 --> 01:28:29.880
<v Speaker 2>that you're saying it, because it didn't super occur to

1964
01:28:29.920 --> 01:28:30.680
<v Speaker 2>me until right now.

1965
01:28:30.800 --> 01:28:33.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and I think, like for two thousand and one,

1966
01:28:34.520 --> 01:28:38.960
<v Speaker 1>this is probably like important representation, like having an interracial relationship.

1967
01:28:39.000 --> 01:28:41.359
<v Speaker 1>It's the head of a rom com, a teen rom com,

1968
01:28:41.520 --> 01:28:44.880
<v Speaker 1>no last like rom drum. Yeah, fair enough, fair enough

1969
01:28:46.239 --> 01:28:49.479
<v Speaker 1>was good. It's not nuanced, is all I'm trying to say.

1970
01:28:49.600 --> 01:28:54.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, a thousand percent. Yeah, there's nothing nuanced though, even

1971
01:28:54.399 --> 01:28:57.000
<v Speaker 2>the stuff that like we do know about that we like,

1972
01:28:57.119 --> 01:29:01.000
<v Speaker 2>oh sure, the ballet stuff is not nuanced. Yeah, the auditions.

1973
01:29:01.119 --> 01:29:03.840
<v Speaker 2>The only times the movie like pulls back a touch

1974
01:29:03.880 --> 01:29:06.239
<v Speaker 2>and it has like the slightest bit of nuance, You're right,

1975
01:29:06.319 --> 01:29:08.760
<v Speaker 2>is when they first show the high school that they're

1976
01:29:08.800 --> 01:29:11.279
<v Speaker 2>all in and it's like a normal high school. It's not.

1977
01:29:11.399 --> 01:29:14.359
<v Speaker 2>It's not the Lean on Me School of Terror and

1978
01:29:14.560 --> 01:29:17.359
<v Speaker 2>like a couple of bits with Shinil and Sarah, but

1979
01:29:17.479 --> 01:29:20.239
<v Speaker 2>there's very other than that. Everyone is just like stereotype

1980
01:29:20.279 --> 01:29:21.399
<v Speaker 2>stereotype stereotype.

1981
01:29:21.479 --> 01:29:25.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And I can't figure out given the genre of

1982
01:29:25.039 --> 01:29:27.720
<v Speaker 1>the movie like this, it might just be more of

1983
01:29:27.760 --> 01:29:30.920
<v Speaker 1>a genre thing, right, Like this is not an indie,

1984
01:29:31.359 --> 01:29:33.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, a twenty four release where they're trying to

1985
01:29:33.800 --> 01:29:38.119
<v Speaker 1>really like go deep, Like, so is it only something

1986
01:29:38.159 --> 01:29:40.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm pointing out because it's since it's not all white

1987
01:29:40.319 --> 01:29:43.560
<v Speaker 1>kids all the stereotypes now, are these harmful stereotypes are not?

1988
01:29:43.840 --> 01:29:47.720
<v Speaker 1>Or is it like it's all the capitol R race

1989
01:29:47.760 --> 01:29:49.279
<v Speaker 1>thing is starting to come up with a little bit.

1990
01:29:49.359 --> 01:29:50.800
<v Speaker 2>A little bit, Yeah, one is about to come up

1991
01:29:50.840 --> 01:29:53.600
<v Speaker 2>a lot. Yeah, so after the fight and like, we

1992
01:29:53.640 --> 01:29:55.439
<v Speaker 2>don't get much of the fight in the movie, but

1993
01:29:55.479 --> 01:29:58.079
<v Speaker 2>the aftermath is real, Like, they don't look good, they

1994
01:29:58.079 --> 01:30:00.760
<v Speaker 2>look beat up. Sarah, nick You're sitting next to each other,

1995
01:30:00.800 --> 01:30:04.720
<v Speaker 2>and Nicki says, this ain't over, bitch, and Sarah's like,

1996
01:30:05.560 --> 01:30:07.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know why it started. What do you

1997
01:30:07.600 --> 01:30:09.800
<v Speaker 2>mean it's not over? What the fuck is your problem?

1998
01:30:10.119 --> 01:30:12.680
<v Speaker 2>And Nicki says the quiet part out loud. She's like,

1999
01:30:13.279 --> 01:30:16.439
<v Speaker 2>white women taking black men. We don't like it. It's

2000
01:30:16.520 --> 01:30:18.359
<v Speaker 2>not it's not a good look for you. She goes,

2001
01:30:18.800 --> 01:30:21.520
<v Speaker 2>the whole world ain't enough. You gotta conquer ours too,

2002
01:30:22.279 --> 01:30:24.319
<v Speaker 2>And this is the first time that it dawns on

2003
01:30:24.439 --> 01:30:27.600
<v Speaker 2>Sarah that it's not just old racist white ladies who

2004
01:30:27.600 --> 01:30:30.359
<v Speaker 2>are gonna have a problem with them, it's everyone else.

2005
01:30:30.880 --> 01:30:33.640
<v Speaker 2>And like there is again, You're right, there's like it

2006
01:30:33.680 --> 01:30:36.960
<v Speaker 2>goes into stereotypes, like Derek is quote unquote the good one.

2007
01:30:37.119 --> 01:30:39.680
<v Speaker 1>This would also be more effective if the backstory of

2008
01:30:39.920 --> 01:30:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Nicki and Derek wasn't that she cheated on him and

2009
01:30:42.960 --> 01:30:46.119
<v Speaker 1>now wants him back. Yeah, Like what if Nicki just

2010
01:30:46.159 --> 01:30:48.159
<v Speaker 1>had a crush on him and he chose Sarah and

2011
01:30:48.159 --> 01:30:50.079
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't interested in her for whatever reason.

2012
01:30:50.279 --> 01:31:00.159
<v Speaker 2>Well cast behind, so Sarah pushes back. She's like, where

2013
01:31:00.239 --> 01:31:02.319
<v Speaker 2>can I like each other? If you have a problem

2014
01:31:02.319 --> 01:31:04.560
<v Speaker 2>with it, screw you, Yes, none of your business.

2015
01:31:04.840 --> 01:31:07.800
<v Speaker 1>That night, at Sarah's apartment, Derek comes to visit, having

2016
01:31:07.800 --> 01:31:10.239
<v Speaker 1>heard about the fight. She opens the door. Roy appears

2017
01:31:10.239 --> 01:31:13.600
<v Speaker 1>behind her, and Sarah's like, I'm fine, Like, we're good,

2018
01:31:13.640 --> 01:31:16.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, go now, I'll call you and Roy helps Sarah.

2019
01:31:16.840 --> 01:31:19.279
<v Speaker 1>Patra bruises with like first aid. So Roy's becoming a

2020
01:31:19.279 --> 01:31:21.720
<v Speaker 1>good father. For track, Roy has an arc. We don't

2021
01:31:21.720 --> 01:31:24.399
<v Speaker 1>really follow it, but it's true he has an arc.

2022
01:31:24.479 --> 01:31:27.840
<v Speaker 1>He's a better father. We cut to steps. Kai is

2023
01:31:27.880 --> 01:31:30.439
<v Speaker 1>again pressuring Derek to join him on his planned raid.

2024
01:31:30.520 --> 01:31:32.359
<v Speaker 1>Like Derek can't say no. He's not saying yes, but

2025
01:31:32.399 --> 01:31:36.439
<v Speaker 1>he can't say no either. Derek doesn't respond, and Snooky

2026
01:31:36.479 --> 01:31:38.760
<v Speaker 1>and Sarah appear behind him. They were apparently like just

2027
01:31:38.840 --> 01:31:41.720
<v Speaker 1>dancing on the floor, and Kai kicks Snooky to the

2028
01:31:41.720 --> 01:31:43.800
<v Speaker 1>ground and mocks him for hitting the deck during the

2029
01:31:43.880 --> 01:31:44.560
<v Speaker 1>drive by.

2030
01:31:44.680 --> 01:31:47.319
<v Speaker 2>Which like everyone did, Bro, that's what you're supposed to

2031
01:31:47.359 --> 01:31:48.079
<v Speaker 2>do in that drive by.

2032
01:31:48.279 --> 01:31:50.159
<v Speaker 1>You're the only one who stood up and started shooting back.

2033
01:31:50.159 --> 01:31:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Because you were the only one with a gun.

2034
01:31:51.880 --> 01:31:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, do you not know how drive bys work?

2035
01:31:54.319 --> 01:31:56.960
<v Speaker 1>All right? He's drug dealing one on one drive bys?

2036
01:31:57.680 --> 01:32:01.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this is two on one, like if you hit

2037
01:32:01.640 --> 01:32:04.119
<v Speaker 2>the drive by part of drug dealing your advanced. Yeah,

2038
01:32:04.159 --> 01:32:06.880
<v Speaker 2>there is a line here that is so goddamn funny.

2039
01:32:06.920 --> 01:32:09.560
<v Speaker 1>I know. Wait, is it funny or is it corny

2040
01:32:09.560 --> 01:32:09.960
<v Speaker 1>and cringey?

2041
01:32:10.199 --> 01:32:13.439
<v Speaker 2>It's funny because someone, an adult wrote this for a child.

2042
01:32:13.640 --> 01:32:17.000
<v Speaker 2>An adult wrote this a for a ostensible Obviously, all

2043
01:32:17.039 --> 01:32:18.920
<v Speaker 2>these people are like twenty five years old, but like

2044
01:32:19.319 --> 01:32:23.159
<v Speaker 2>the character of Kai is supposed to be seventeen years old. Okay,

2045
01:32:23.479 --> 01:32:26.079
<v Speaker 2>Sarah and Snookie come up on their conversation and Sarah

2046
01:32:26.119 --> 01:32:29.640
<v Speaker 2>tries to intervene because there's tension there, and Kai says,

2047
01:32:29.960 --> 01:32:33.159
<v Speaker 2>this is an A and B conversation, So see your

2048
01:32:33.239 --> 01:32:33.760
<v Speaker 2>way home.

2049
01:32:36.399 --> 01:32:38.920
<v Speaker 1>I tripped on that so hard.

2050
01:32:39.560 --> 01:32:41.960
<v Speaker 2>How did that make the final cut of this movie?

2051
01:32:42.119 --> 01:32:44.359
<v Speaker 2>How did the actor not be like, no, I'm not

2052
01:32:44.399 --> 01:32:47.439
<v Speaker 2>saying that. How did the editor not be like, this

2053
01:32:47.479 --> 01:32:48.760
<v Speaker 2>is supposed to be a teenage boy?

2054
01:32:48.920 --> 01:32:49.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he wouldn't say that.

2055
01:32:50.000 --> 01:32:53.279
<v Speaker 2>How did the director not cat like, who is who dropped?

2056
01:32:53.319 --> 01:32:55.880
<v Speaker 2>There's so many balls that got dropped? To the moment

2057
01:32:55.920 --> 01:33:01.000
<v Speaker 2>where Kai, the gun toting drug dealer Yah who is

2058
01:33:01.079 --> 01:33:06.800
<v Speaker 2>seventeen years old in a year two thousand and one,

2059
01:33:07.479 --> 01:33:11.000
<v Speaker 2>says that to another seventeen year old it doesn't make

2060
01:33:11.039 --> 01:33:12.199
<v Speaker 2>any fucking sense.

2061
01:33:13.039 --> 01:33:16.479
<v Speaker 1>So Sarah's like, Hey, I'm leaving, are you coming with me?

2062
01:33:16.720 --> 01:33:18.800
<v Speaker 1>This is when Kai does the whole a B thing.

2063
01:33:19.479 --> 01:33:22.199
<v Speaker 1>Sarah tells him to fuck off, and Kai actually goes

2064
01:33:22.239 --> 01:33:24.920
<v Speaker 1>for her, like he steps at her, and Derek gets

2065
01:33:24.960 --> 01:33:27.600
<v Speaker 1>in his way, so Kai tells him to get out

2066
01:33:27.600 --> 01:33:30.439
<v Speaker 1>of his face and take his trailer trash ho with him.

2067
01:33:30.720 --> 01:33:33.359
<v Speaker 1>Derek punches him and the two stare at each other,

2068
01:33:33.399 --> 01:33:36.199
<v Speaker 1>and then Derek takes Sarah and Snookie out of the club. Right,

2069
01:33:36.279 --> 01:33:39.800
<v Speaker 1>so there's been a break here between these two lifelong friends.

2070
01:33:40.119 --> 01:33:43.239
<v Speaker 2>We cut to Derek and Shaneil's apartment. Kenny has arrived.

2071
01:33:43.279 --> 01:33:47.479
<v Speaker 2>Remember Kenny the father of Shaneil's baby. Until you mentioned

2072
01:33:47.479 --> 01:33:49.640
<v Speaker 2>that she had a baby like ten minutes ago, I'd

2073
01:33:49.640 --> 01:33:52.399
<v Speaker 2>forgotten fully and forgot. I was like, right, she is

2074
01:33:52.439 --> 01:33:56.159
<v Speaker 2>a kid. He comes to take Christopher the baby for

2075
01:33:56.199 --> 01:33:59.880
<v Speaker 2>the weekend. Christopher is freaking out because like he's not

2076
01:34:00.319 --> 01:34:02.720
<v Speaker 2>he's just he's being fussy. Cute kid they cast a

2077
01:34:02.720 --> 01:34:04.399
<v Speaker 2>really cute kid to play Christopher.

2078
01:34:04.439 --> 01:34:06.760
<v Speaker 1>And he doesn't recognize Kenny because Kenny's not there a lot.

2079
01:34:07.000 --> 01:34:09.119
<v Speaker 2>Yes, that's the thing. He's like, no, you can't take

2080
01:34:09.159 --> 01:34:11.199
<v Speaker 2>me away from my mom. Who are you? You weird

2081
01:34:11.279 --> 01:34:13.239
<v Speaker 2>tall man? Yeah, I don't want to be with you.

2082
01:34:13.479 --> 01:34:15.399
<v Speaker 1>And this baby's incredible because he gets all that done

2083
01:34:15.439 --> 01:34:16.039
<v Speaker 1>with subtext.

2084
01:34:16.359 --> 01:34:18.600
<v Speaker 2>He's so good, he's so good. This baby went to.

2085
01:34:18.640 --> 01:34:21.239
<v Speaker 1>Juilliard, and this baby you grew up to be Michael B. Jordan.

2086
01:34:21.520 --> 01:34:25.399
<v Speaker 2>This baby actually like went with the chair to Juilliard. Yeah.

2087
01:34:25.439 --> 01:34:27.680
<v Speaker 2>So Kenny is like, come on, let me, let me

2088
01:34:27.680 --> 01:34:29.279
<v Speaker 2>take him, and he and Shaneil get into like a

2089
01:34:29.359 --> 01:34:33.439
<v Speaker 2>verbal fight. It gets ugly, not physically ugly, but verbally ugly,

2090
01:34:33.479 --> 01:34:35.399
<v Speaker 2>and he's like, fine, fuck off and he just leaves

2091
01:34:35.399 --> 01:34:39.319
<v Speaker 2>without the kid. Turns out the baby is sick, that's

2092
01:34:39.319 --> 01:34:40.319
<v Speaker 2>why it's crying.

2093
01:34:40.560 --> 01:34:43.720
<v Speaker 1>So Schanil winds up at a doctor's appointment with Christopher at

2094
01:34:43.760 --> 01:34:47.399
<v Speaker 1>a very overworked office. Sarah is with her friend, essensibly

2095
01:34:47.439 --> 01:34:50.239
<v Speaker 1>just to help. So Shanil, very stressed out, not in

2096
01:34:50.279 --> 01:34:52.920
<v Speaker 1>a good place, is like, oh, so does Sarah blame

2097
01:34:53.000 --> 01:34:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Derek for the fight with Nicki and Sarah says, no,

2098
01:34:55.640 --> 01:34:58.680
<v Speaker 1>I explained about Nicki, and Shanil's like, oh, so, like

2099
01:34:58.760 --> 01:35:01.520
<v Speaker 1>you don't take any response ability for this, and Sarah

2100
01:35:01.520 --> 01:35:04.000
<v Speaker 1>says what and Sheanil says, maybe Nicky has a point.

2101
01:35:04.359 --> 01:35:07.399
<v Speaker 1>She says it hurts people to see Sarah and Derek together,

2102
01:35:07.520 --> 01:35:10.359
<v Speaker 1>particularly black women. And this is where we say more

2103
01:35:10.359 --> 01:35:12.920
<v Speaker 1>of the quiet part out loud. Derek's a good guy,

2104
01:35:13.399 --> 01:35:16.399
<v Speaker 1>Sarah's poaching one of the few good black men left.

2105
01:35:16.520 --> 01:35:18.920
<v Speaker 2>I hate this argument. Yeah, look, I get it, it's

2106
01:35:18.920 --> 01:35:21.079
<v Speaker 2>a real argument, but I just I don't know. I

2107
01:35:21.119 --> 01:35:24.079
<v Speaker 2>hate seeing it in like popular culture that's meant for

2108
01:35:24.119 --> 01:35:24.680
<v Speaker 2>white people.

2109
01:35:24.840 --> 01:35:25.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

2110
01:35:25.199 --> 01:35:27.119
<v Speaker 2>And the reason I hate that for a white audience

2111
01:35:27.199 --> 01:35:30.680
<v Speaker 2>is because it really like ingrains this stereotype. Yeah again,

2112
01:35:30.760 --> 01:35:33.079
<v Speaker 2>I really do get it. This is the world that

2113
01:35:33.119 --> 01:35:34.920
<v Speaker 2>we're all living in. You have to consider who this

2114
01:35:35.000 --> 01:35:37.600
<v Speaker 2>movie is for and who's probably gonna watch this movie,

2115
01:35:38.119 --> 01:35:40.840
<v Speaker 2>and like it's gonna be probably a majority of white

2116
01:35:40.840 --> 01:35:44.319
<v Speaker 2>girls right watching this movie, and like it's a little iffy.

2117
01:35:44.520 --> 01:35:47.199
<v Speaker 2>There is a really good line here where Shanil says,

2118
01:35:47.199 --> 01:35:49.399
<v Speaker 2>this is what NICKI meant by having you in our world,

2119
01:35:49.760 --> 01:35:53.600
<v Speaker 2>and Sarah says, there's only one world. Shanil right, which

2120
01:35:54.079 --> 01:35:56.560
<v Speaker 2>is a fairly good argument, I will say. And then

2121
01:35:56.600 --> 01:35:59.279
<v Speaker 2>Shanil turns to where she's like, that's what they teach you,

2122
01:36:00.159 --> 01:36:03.000
<v Speaker 2>we know different yep. Also excellent argument.

2123
01:36:03.159 --> 01:36:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, and it's very true because that was what

2124
01:36:04.920 --> 01:36:06.600
<v Speaker 1>I was taught me too, a hundred percent what I

2125
01:36:06.640 --> 01:36:07.119
<v Speaker 1>was taught, right.

2126
01:36:07.239 --> 01:36:08.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

2127
01:36:08.279 --> 01:36:12.079
<v Speaker 1>So she tells Sarah to open up her eyes, look around. Hurt,

2128
01:36:12.319 --> 01:36:15.319
<v Speaker 1>Sarah just gathers her things and leaves, and Shanil kind

2129
01:36:15.359 --> 01:36:16.800
<v Speaker 1>of looks after her regretfully.

2130
01:36:16.920 --> 01:36:19.199
<v Speaker 2>So we cut to the next dance rehearsal. This is

2131
01:36:19.199 --> 01:36:21.880
<v Speaker 2>the moment where Derek. This is where Erica goes Derek.

2132
01:36:22.079 --> 01:36:24.520
<v Speaker 2>Is why is Derek a choreographer all of a sudden,

2133
01:36:24.520 --> 01:36:26.880
<v Speaker 2>Because this is when it dawns on me that like,

2134
01:36:26.960 --> 01:36:29.520
<v Speaker 2>not only is he like teaching her steps, he's choreographing

2135
01:36:29.560 --> 01:36:30.680
<v Speaker 2>her dance for her audition.

2136
01:36:30.880 --> 01:36:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Like I didn't realize that until like the second

2137
01:36:33.640 --> 01:36:34.079
<v Speaker 1>time through.

2138
01:36:34.319 --> 01:36:36.680
<v Speaker 2>He is one hundred percent like and so he gets

2139
01:36:36.840 --> 01:36:39.319
<v Speaker 2>like annoyed with her when she doesn't hit her steps

2140
01:36:41.359 --> 01:36:43.720
<v Speaker 2>and like your extension is off and like what are

2141
01:36:43.720 --> 01:36:47.199
<v Speaker 2>you doing? And she's like, shut up, Balanchine, I'm trying,

2142
01:36:48.479 --> 01:36:50.279
<v Speaker 2>Like she's out of sorts because of the fight she

2143
01:36:50.399 --> 01:36:53.720
<v Speaker 2>just had with Shanil, And Derek is like, Hey, everything's

2144
01:36:53.800 --> 01:36:56.399
<v Speaker 2>going to be okay, Like, you're gonna have the audition.

2145
01:36:56.439 --> 01:36:58.880
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna be amazing at it because my Steps are

2146
01:36:59.000 --> 01:36:59.960
<v Speaker 2>unimpeachably good.

2147
01:37:00.239 --> 01:37:00.439
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

2148
01:37:00.680 --> 01:37:02.880
<v Speaker 2>In fact, after you audition for Julliard, they're gonna be like,

2149
01:37:02.960 --> 01:37:06.000
<v Speaker 2>guess what, girl, you didn't get into Juilliard? But who

2150
01:37:06.039 --> 01:37:09.319
<v Speaker 2>is your choreographer? We want them? Yeah, He's like, hey,

2151
01:37:09.399 --> 01:37:12.680
<v Speaker 2>have you picked out a dress for Main Squeeze night

2152
01:37:13.439 --> 01:37:14.199
<v Speaker 2>at Steps?

2153
01:37:14.239 --> 01:37:16.640
<v Speaker 1>Again? This is this is an actual club, but this

2154
01:37:16.680 --> 01:37:18.760
<v Speaker 1>is not This isn't a prom I don't know.

2155
01:37:18.800 --> 01:37:21.439
<v Speaker 2>I do feel like clubs are cheeseball, though I have

2156
01:37:21.560 --> 01:37:26.399
<v Speaker 2>definitely seen club promote some cheeseball shit, and like, I

2157
01:37:26.560 --> 01:37:29.000
<v Speaker 2>this this might if this club is cheeseball enough to

2158
01:37:29.039 --> 01:37:31.760
<v Speaker 2>have like a mostly high school clientele, it might be

2159
01:37:31.880 --> 01:37:34.439
<v Speaker 2>cheeseball enough to have a Maine Squeeze night. So he's like,

2160
01:37:34.479 --> 01:37:36.520
<v Speaker 2>have you picked out a dress for our our next

2161
01:37:36.600 --> 01:37:39.000
<v Speaker 2>date night? Right? And she's like, I don't know, should

2162
01:37:39.279 --> 01:37:40.920
<v Speaker 2>maybe after the fight we should just cool it for

2163
01:37:40.960 --> 01:37:42.720
<v Speaker 2>a while and not go out in public very much.

2164
01:37:42.720 --> 01:37:46.279
<v Speaker 2>And Derek's like buh, are you embarrassed to be seen

2165
01:37:46.319 --> 01:37:49.640
<v Speaker 2>with me? And she's like, no, you should be embarrassed

2166
01:37:49.760 --> 01:37:53.279
<v Speaker 2>we see with me. You are you forgetting what is

2167
01:37:53.319 --> 01:37:56.720
<v Speaker 2>happening here? And she's like, I don't know what I want.

2168
01:37:57.159 --> 01:37:59.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm just tired of having to defend our relationship to

2169
01:37:59.760 --> 01:38:02.840
<v Speaker 2>every everyone, to the world. And Derek's like, well, that's

2170
01:38:02.880 --> 01:38:06.960
<v Speaker 2>the world we're living in. Shit gets hard. You don't

2171
01:38:07.000 --> 01:38:09.680
<v Speaker 2>just walk away because shit gets hard. You have to

2172
01:38:09.760 --> 01:38:13.640
<v Speaker 2>keep moving forward and persevering. He's such a he's such

2173
01:38:13.680 --> 01:38:16.439
<v Speaker 2>an adult. He's like, he should be a therapist.

2174
01:38:16.479 --> 01:38:20.319
<v Speaker 1>A therapist, choreographer, the therapies you through the dance.

2175
01:38:20.600 --> 01:38:21.880
<v Speaker 2>You know that exists?

2176
01:38:22.119 --> 01:38:22.359
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

2177
01:38:22.399 --> 01:38:25.399
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, Derek would found the studio for that and make

2178
01:38:25.439 --> 01:38:28.960
<v Speaker 2>a billion dollars. And then he kind of hits her

2179
01:38:28.960 --> 01:38:30.640
<v Speaker 2>on like on a nerve. He goes, you know, you

2180
01:38:30.720 --> 01:38:32.640
<v Speaker 2>quit on your on life after your mother died, and

2181
01:38:32.640 --> 01:38:34.520
<v Speaker 2>now you're gonna quit on me, and she's like, do

2182
01:38:34.760 --> 01:38:38.880
<v Speaker 2>not talk about my mother. He immediately apologizes. He's like,

2183
01:38:38.920 --> 01:38:42.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, my bad, and he's like, I've been defending

2184
01:38:42.319 --> 01:38:44.880
<v Speaker 2>your our relationship to everyone too. It's not just you.

2185
01:38:45.600 --> 01:38:48.079
<v Speaker 2>I thought we were in this together. That's why I

2186
01:38:48.239 --> 01:38:50.560
<v Speaker 2>was happy to do so. But if you're not happy

2187
01:38:50.600 --> 01:38:53.119
<v Speaker 2>to do so, if you think this is too difficult,

2188
01:38:53.399 --> 01:38:55.479
<v Speaker 2>then fuck off. And then he leaves yep.

2189
01:38:55.800 --> 01:38:59.039
<v Speaker 1>In the aftermath of the breakup, Derek agrees to go

2190
01:38:59.199 --> 01:39:00.640
<v Speaker 1>with Kai on his raid.

2191
01:39:00.720 --> 01:39:05.239
<v Speaker 2>Buddy, Buddy. The move here is Pint of ice Cream.

2192
01:39:05.359 --> 01:39:08.720
<v Speaker 2>YEP is movie you cry too, absolutely Sandra Bullock movie

2193
01:39:08.720 --> 01:39:10.079
<v Speaker 2>You don't want your You don't want your friends to

2194
01:39:10.079 --> 01:39:11.800

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I did. The move here is to go fuck Nicky. Yeah,

2197
01:39:16.960 --> 01:39:19.159
<v Speaker 2>the move here, that's.

2198
01:39:18.920 --> 01:39:22.680
<v Speaker 1>What you always think. The answer is Erica. Maybe it's

2199
01:39:22.680 --> 01:39:24.760
<v Speaker 1>a good day, Maybe I should go fuck Nicky. It's

2200
01:39:24.760 --> 01:39:26.279
<v Speaker 1>a bad day. Maybe I should go fuck me.

2201
01:39:26.319 --> 01:39:28.840
<v Speaker 2>Maybe I should just like let Nicky hang out, like

2202
01:39:28.960 --> 01:39:33.039
<v Speaker 2>pick out my clothes. But genuinely, I'm like, this is

2203
01:39:33.119 --> 01:39:36.319
<v Speaker 2>such an overreaction to a mediocre girl dumping him, or

2204
01:39:36.399 --> 01:39:39.239
<v Speaker 2>him dumping a mediocre Look. I look, I love this movie.

2205
01:39:39.279 --> 01:39:41.760
<v Speaker 2>I like this movie very much, But Sarah is mediocre.

2206
01:39:43.479 --> 01:39:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Sarah continues to rehearse her upcoming Juilliard audition, and we

2207
01:39:46.920 --> 01:39:49.039
<v Speaker 1>learned that it is now the next day, so time

2208
01:39:49.119 --> 01:39:50.079
<v Speaker 1>has moved forward.

2209
01:39:50.119 --> 01:39:51.159
<v Speaker 2>It's the day of the show, y'all.

2210
01:39:51.199 --> 01:39:54.039
<v Speaker 1>The day of the show, y'all, at home, she's paging

2211
01:39:54.079 --> 01:39:56.800
<v Speaker 1>through a photo album of her mother and Roy comes in.

2212
01:39:56.880 --> 01:39:58.920
<v Speaker 1>He wants to say good luck, and then he shows

2213
01:39:58.920 --> 01:40:00.880
<v Speaker 1>her that he finally fixed up her bedroom so she

2214
01:40:00.960 --> 01:40:03.520
<v Speaker 1>has her own space. Okay, this apartment.

2215
01:40:04.520 --> 01:40:07.399
<v Speaker 2>She walks into this apartment and he like does the

2216
01:40:07.479 --> 01:40:09.880
<v Speaker 2>reveal that he painted her room and everything, and then

2217
01:40:09.920 --> 01:40:11.479
<v Speaker 2>he has a line where he goes, some of it's

2218
01:40:11.479 --> 01:40:15.039
<v Speaker 2>so wet. You're telling me she walked into this four

2219
01:40:15.159 --> 01:40:18.399
<v Speaker 2>hundred square foot apartment and wasn't like, why does it

2220
01:40:18.439 --> 01:40:19.239
<v Speaker 2>smell like paint?

2221
01:40:19.920 --> 01:40:22.079
<v Speaker 1>You're telling me that he was apparently able to do

2222
01:40:22.159 --> 01:40:24.680
<v Speaker 1>it in one day while she was gone at school,

2223
01:40:24.720 --> 01:40:26.600
<v Speaker 1>and it took him three months to do it.

2224
01:40:26.880 --> 01:40:30.079
<v Speaker 2>That that tracks, Actually, that part actually does.

2225
01:40:30.279 --> 01:40:31.960
<v Speaker 1>She should have been like, maybe if you had done

2226
01:40:32.000 --> 01:40:34.279
<v Speaker 1>this earlier, you wouldn't have to sit on my fuck

2227
01:40:34.279 --> 01:40:35.600
<v Speaker 1>couch to watch television.

2228
01:40:36.960 --> 01:40:38.880
<v Speaker 2>I would like you to know that I did a

2229
01:40:38.960 --> 01:40:40.000
<v Speaker 2>doggy style on.

2230
01:40:39.920 --> 01:40:43.800
<v Speaker 1>That couch and I didn't turn the cushions over afterwards.

2231
01:40:43.800 --> 01:40:46.880
<v Speaker 2>Now enjoy your episode of Dateline.

2232
01:40:50.199 --> 01:40:52.840
<v Speaker 1>So Roy says that he knows he doesn't deserve a

2233
01:40:52.840 --> 01:40:55.359
<v Speaker 1>second chance to be her father, but he hopes she'll

2234
01:40:55.359 --> 01:40:58.159
<v Speaker 1>give him one and she starts to cry. She confides

2235
01:40:58.199 --> 01:40:59.720
<v Speaker 1>in him about the breakup. She treats him like a

2236
01:40:59.800 --> 01:41:02.399
<v Speaker 1>dad for the first time, and she says she just

2237
01:41:02.439 --> 01:41:05.960
<v Speaker 1>wants someone at her audition who loves her. And Roy says,

2238
01:41:06.399 --> 01:41:07.800
<v Speaker 1>I love you, and I.

2239
01:41:07.720 --> 01:41:10.239
<v Speaker 2>Gotta say this actor killed him because it got me.

2240
01:41:10.279 --> 01:41:12.800
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh me too, me to this actor

2241
01:41:12.880 --> 01:41:17.000
<v Speaker 2>fucking nailed it. He's so good. Okay, look you like,

2242
01:41:17.079 --> 01:41:19.039
<v Speaker 2>I get it. Like with your mom maybe in the

2243
01:41:19.079 --> 01:41:21.640
<v Speaker 2>beginning of the movie, but by now you've auditioned several

2244
01:41:21.680 --> 01:41:24.600
<v Speaker 2>times for Juilliard. You need to learn how to audition

2245
01:41:24.680 --> 01:41:27.600
<v Speaker 2>on your own. Your mommy and daddy cannot come with

2246
01:41:27.640 --> 01:41:29.439
<v Speaker 2>you on every audition for the rest of your life.

2247
01:41:29.439 --> 01:41:30.399
<v Speaker 2>You needs to tough enough.

2248
01:41:30.520 --> 01:41:30.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

2249
01:41:30.920 --> 01:41:33.479
<v Speaker 2>We cut to the park, Derek is helping she kneel

2250
01:41:33.520 --> 01:41:37.039
<v Speaker 2>with Christopher. She's like, hey, man, I heard about your

2251
01:41:37.039 --> 01:41:39.800
<v Speaker 2>breakup with Sarah. I might have had.

2252
01:41:39.640 --> 01:41:44.239
<v Speaker 1>Something to do that might have been somewhere between fifty

2253
01:41:45.319 --> 01:41:45.680
<v Speaker 1>my fault.

2254
01:41:45.920 --> 01:41:50.000
<v Speaker 2>So she's she's like, listen, I'm really sorry, but I

2255
01:41:50.319 --> 01:41:53.319
<v Speaker 2>told and she tells him everything about her confrontation. She's like,

2256
01:41:53.600 --> 01:41:56.680
<v Speaker 2>I was dealing with bullshit from like with Christopher and

2257
01:41:56.720 --> 01:41:59.279
<v Speaker 2>his father and I and I not the baby's fault,

2258
01:41:59.319 --> 01:42:02.840
<v Speaker 2>Kenny's fault, us dealing with bullshit from Kenny and I lost.

2259
01:42:02.880 --> 01:42:04.880
<v Speaker 2>I lost my head and I took it out on Sarah.

2260
01:42:04.960 --> 01:42:07.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm really sorry. And Derek's like, stay out of my life,

2261
01:42:08.479 --> 01:42:10.800
<v Speaker 2>and he's like, I gotta go. And Chaniel's like, wait,

2262
01:42:10.880 --> 01:42:12.800
<v Speaker 2>are you going to that thing with Kai? And like

2263
01:42:12.800 --> 01:42:15.399
<v Speaker 2>what's funny is like everyone knows. Yeah, this is the

2264
01:42:15.520 --> 01:42:18.359
<v Speaker 2>least well kept secret of this entire school is that

2265
01:42:18.520 --> 01:42:21.560
<v Speaker 2>Kai is going. At four pm on a Saturday.

2266
01:42:21.239 --> 01:42:22.520
<v Speaker 1>We'll be doing a drive.

2267
01:42:22.520 --> 01:42:25.239
<v Speaker 2>We'll be doing a drive ye in West Chicago. Like,

2268
01:42:26.039 --> 01:42:28.239
<v Speaker 2>what about the other kids, the other kids on the

2269
01:42:28.239 --> 01:42:30.199
<v Speaker 2>other side of that drive by? Do you think they

2270
01:42:30.199 --> 01:42:35.680
<v Speaker 2>were told ahead of time? Because fucking everyone knows. So

2271
01:42:35.880 --> 01:42:38.439
<v Speaker 2>she's like, don't don't go help Kai. I know you

2272
01:42:38.479 --> 01:42:40.359
<v Speaker 2>think you owe him, but you don't, and you have

2273
01:42:40.399 --> 01:42:43.479
<v Speaker 2>to move on with your life. And as Derek is

2274
01:42:43.560 --> 01:42:46.039
<v Speaker 2>leaving anyway, Kenny arrives in the park and he and

2275
01:42:46.039 --> 01:42:49.359
<v Speaker 2>Shaniel this has clearly been a thaw for their fight,

2276
01:42:49.399 --> 01:42:50.680
<v Speaker 2>and they greet each other warmly.

2277
01:42:50.960 --> 01:42:53.399
<v Speaker 1>I want to start tracking timing again.

2278
01:42:53.880 --> 01:42:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Huh. This, Paul, was your audition for NYU at ninety

2279
01:42:57.359 --> 01:43:02.000
<v Speaker 2>pm was not? Because this movie posits that her audition

2280
01:43:02.039 --> 01:43:03.960
<v Speaker 2>for Juilliard is at nine pm.

2281
01:43:04.039 --> 01:43:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Because I was trying to figure it out, because it's like, Okay,

2282
01:43:05.800 --> 01:43:09.000
<v Speaker 1>in the park, it's it's daylight and it's still it's

2283
01:43:09.039 --> 01:43:10.760
<v Speaker 1>not spring, because it's still very great. Or if it

2284
01:43:10.800 --> 01:43:12.319
<v Speaker 1>is spring, it does not look like spring. It still

2285
01:43:12.319 --> 01:43:15.840
<v Speaker 1>looks like March at the at the latest. Yeah, yeah,

2286
01:43:16.239 --> 01:43:18.960
<v Speaker 1>but it's light. So Derek runs to meet Kai under

2287
01:43:18.960 --> 01:43:20.720
<v Speaker 1>the bridge to get ready for the for the for

2288
01:43:20.760 --> 01:43:23.640
<v Speaker 1>the public raid and he tells Kay He's not going.

2289
01:43:23.880 --> 01:43:27.439
<v Speaker 1>It's dangerous nonsense. Kai should stop it. Kai says, I

2290
01:43:27.439 --> 01:43:29.520
<v Speaker 1>should have given you up to the police, and Derek

2291
01:43:29.640 --> 01:43:31.800
<v Speaker 1>is like, you can walk away from this. You do

2292
01:43:31.920 --> 01:43:34.600
<v Speaker 1>not have to keep going. Kai says, I have nothing

2293
01:43:34.640 --> 01:43:37.000
<v Speaker 1>but respect and I have to defend it. So Kai

2294
01:43:37.079 --> 01:43:39.239
<v Speaker 1>drives away with the rest of the crew and Derek

2295
01:43:39.319 --> 01:43:41.760
<v Speaker 1>runs to Sarah's house, but she's already left for the audition.

2296
01:43:41.960 --> 01:43:44.359
<v Speaker 1>It is dark out time.

2297
01:43:44.720 --> 01:43:47.359
<v Speaker 2>It's nighttime already. When he goes to meet Kai. Yes,

2298
01:43:47.680 --> 01:43:50.359
<v Speaker 2>like he from the park to meeting Kai, he like,

2299
01:43:51.119 --> 01:43:52.119
<v Speaker 2>daylight has gone.

2300
01:43:52.039 --> 01:43:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Daylight has gone.

2301
01:43:52.840 --> 01:43:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the twilight has ended, and like we.

2302
01:43:55.720 --> 01:43:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Are past the gloaming.

2303
01:43:57.039 --> 01:43:59.199
<v Speaker 2>Why did he even agree to this in the first place.

2304
01:43:59.279 --> 01:44:01.479
<v Speaker 2>I know he like, obviously he's not gonna go to

2305
01:44:01.520 --> 01:44:03.439
<v Speaker 2>the drive by, but like, there are things that I

2306
01:44:03.439 --> 01:44:07.680
<v Speaker 2>could reasonably believe that Derek would agree to because he's

2307
01:44:07.720 --> 01:44:09.840
<v Speaker 2>pissed off at Sarah, because he's pissed off at the world,

2308
01:44:09.920 --> 01:44:11.479
<v Speaker 2>and he just kind of wants to act out right

2309
01:44:11.960 --> 01:44:15.520
<v Speaker 2>like we're gonna go and rob something, but drive by

2310
01:44:15.840 --> 01:44:17.039
<v Speaker 2>equals murder?

2311
01:44:17.119 --> 01:44:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Correct?

2312
01:44:17.600 --> 01:44:21.159
<v Speaker 2>The answer is like, so Kai is reaching out to

2313
01:44:21.199 --> 01:44:23.960
<v Speaker 2>his friend and being like, would you like to come

2314
01:44:24.000 --> 01:44:25.800
<v Speaker 2>with me to murder people?

2315
01:44:25.920 --> 01:44:29.840
<v Speaker 3>To a premeditated murder, to a premeditated murder, to ending

2316
01:44:30.119 --> 01:44:32.840
<v Speaker 3>the lives of several people, whether they're good people or

2317
01:44:32.880 --> 01:44:33.439
<v Speaker 3>bad people?

2318
01:44:33.479 --> 01:44:37.159
<v Speaker 2>Who cares? It's we're going to a murder and like

2319
01:44:37.520 --> 01:44:40.479
<v Speaker 2>and Derek's like, I'm really mad at my girlfriend for

2320
01:44:40.520 --> 01:44:43.439
<v Speaker 2>breaking up with me, So yeah, I'm gonna do that.

2321
01:44:43.439 --> 01:44:45.359
<v Speaker 2>That sounds like a really good way to blow off

2322
01:44:45.359 --> 01:44:49.439
<v Speaker 2>some seam No no movie. I don't believe that Derek

2323
01:44:49.439 --> 01:44:54.039
<v Speaker 2>would ever even get close to agreeing to that, Like,

2324
01:44:54.479 --> 01:44:57.560
<v Speaker 2>this doesn't make any sense. We know now he doesn't

2325
01:44:57.600 --> 01:44:59.199
<v Speaker 2>do it. He goes. He shows up and he's like,

2326
01:44:59.239 --> 01:45:02.600
<v Speaker 2>don't go to the drive by. So we cut to

2327
01:45:02.760 --> 01:45:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Roy driving Sarah to the audition and he waits as

2328
01:45:05.720 --> 01:45:09.960
<v Speaker 2>she warms up, and Derek sprints through Chicago. He's on

2329
01:45:10.039 --> 01:45:13.439
<v Speaker 2>the l he's on the train. He's trying to catch her. Meanwhile,

2330
01:45:13.520 --> 01:45:16.920
<v Speaker 2>we cut to Kai and his crew being so bad

2331
01:45:16.960 --> 01:45:21.079
<v Speaker 2>at drive bys. I get it, drive bys are not easy,

2332
01:45:21.399 --> 01:45:24.359
<v Speaker 2>but you could prepare yourself a little bit better for

2333
01:45:24.800 --> 01:45:28.800
<v Speaker 2>the drive by. So they're trying to execute their drive by. Basically,

2334
01:45:29.920 --> 01:45:33.960
<v Speaker 2>one of the rival gang members hits Kai's like Kai's

2335
01:45:33.960 --> 01:45:37.880
<v Speaker 2>car's gas tank as he's driving away. Because they drive by,

2336
01:45:37.960 --> 01:45:41.439
<v Speaker 2>they miss everyone. All the guys they were aiming for

2337
01:45:41.479 --> 01:45:44.640
<v Speaker 2>are fine. Then those guys are shooting back hard at

2338
01:45:44.640 --> 01:45:47.079
<v Speaker 2>the car. They hit the gas tank in the car

2339
01:45:47.520 --> 01:45:49.520
<v Speaker 2>kind of like I thought, for a minute, I really

2340
01:45:49.680 --> 01:45:51.439
<v Speaker 2>was kind of hoping the movie was going here because

2341
01:45:51.479 --> 01:45:54.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, I'm like, this is so stupid, Yeah, the car.

2342
01:45:54.640 --> 01:45:56.800
<v Speaker 2>I thought the car was going to explode me too.

2343
01:45:56.880 --> 01:45:59.159
<v Speaker 1>I thought they were gonna be and kill them all.

2344
01:45:59.159 --> 01:46:01.399
<v Speaker 2>Which would have been too dark for this. It would

2345
01:46:01.399 --> 01:46:03.159
<v Speaker 2>have been funnier if this was a comedy. But like

2346
01:46:03.439 --> 01:46:07.119
<v Speaker 2>it's too dark. But basically the car kind of half explodes,

2347
01:46:07.199 --> 01:46:10.479
<v Speaker 2>it like gets on fire. Whoever's driving the car like

2348
01:46:10.560 --> 01:46:13.399
<v Speaker 2>swerves and hits another car and now they're like caught

2349
01:46:13.479 --> 01:46:17.880
<v Speaker 2>by the cups. So as that's going on, we see

2350
01:46:17.920 --> 01:46:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Sarah at her audition, we see the ballet piece. In

2351
01:46:23.039 --> 01:46:26.680
<v Speaker 2>your opinion, Paul, again, we are not professionals. If you

2352
01:46:26.680 --> 01:46:29.560
<v Speaker 2>are a professional dancer or professional choreographer, or if you

2353
01:46:29.640 --> 01:46:33.279
<v Speaker 2>even attended Juilliard, reach out and let us know. Do

2354
01:46:33.479 --> 01:46:36.680
<v Speaker 2>you think this is good enough to get into Juilliard? Paul?

2355
01:46:36.800 --> 01:46:41.000
<v Speaker 2>I pause it No, I don't think this is good

2356
01:46:41.079 --> 01:46:45.800
<v Speaker 2>enough to get into the community college. It is the

2357
01:46:45.800 --> 01:46:49.119
<v Speaker 2>weakest ass ballet audition. She at one point does one

2358
01:46:49.159 --> 01:46:52.600
<v Speaker 2>of those like jumps and it just she lands with

2359
01:46:52.680 --> 01:46:58.760
<v Speaker 2>a foot. But that's not why we're here, guys, Paul.

2360
01:46:59.520 --> 01:47:01.479
<v Speaker 2>Let's get into the contemporary dance piece.

2361
01:47:01.600 --> 01:47:05.359
<v Speaker 1>Okay, She brings out her chair. Yeah, for the contemporary

2362
01:47:05.439 --> 01:47:07.000
<v Speaker 1>dance piece. I just want this is one of those

2363
01:47:07.039 --> 01:47:10.359
<v Speaker 1>like old folding metal chairs that that are in like

2364
01:47:10.479 --> 01:47:12.960
<v Speaker 1>every like community rec center. Yep, right, Like that's the

2365
01:47:13.000 --> 01:47:18.079
<v Speaker 1>chair we're talking about. Just as Derek rushes in absolutely

2366
01:47:18.319 --> 01:47:20.319
<v Speaker 1>one thousand percent would not have been able to get in.

2367
01:47:20.359 --> 01:47:24.680
<v Speaker 1>But whatever, he's in there now, the same auditioner as

2368
01:47:24.760 --> 01:47:25.560
<v Speaker 1>earlier in the.

2369
01:47:25.520 --> 01:47:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Movie, same stupid bitch.

2370
01:47:27.920 --> 01:47:31.680
<v Speaker 1>That same guy that looks like he got he got

2371
01:47:31.800 --> 01:47:34.439
<v Speaker 1>he got drummed out of close up magic college.

2372
01:47:36.880 --> 01:47:40.119
<v Speaker 2>That same guy who absolutely sends a coffee order back.

2373
01:47:40.319 --> 01:47:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Yes, that guy, that guy again, and this actor is

2374
01:47:42.960 --> 01:47:46.119
<v Speaker 1>doing such a good job of portraying that guy. He's

2375
01:47:46.159 --> 01:47:48.880
<v Speaker 1>sitting there. There's a couple other people there. Sarah starts

2376
01:47:48.880 --> 01:47:51.760
<v Speaker 1>her piece and she stumbles again. She like does this

2377
01:47:51.840 --> 01:47:54.880
<v Speaker 1>thing where and she's basically doing like like Warrior three

2378
01:47:55.159 --> 01:47:57.520
<v Speaker 1>and she like falls forward as all of us who

2379
01:47:57.560 --> 01:48:00.039
<v Speaker 1>do Warrior three have done. However, we are not a

2380
01:48:00.319 --> 01:48:01.279
<v Speaker 1>for Julliard, and we do it.

2381
01:48:01.319 --> 01:48:03.800
<v Speaker 2>We're I supposed to have the core strength of a seventeen.

2382
01:48:03.479 --> 01:48:06.000
<v Speaker 1>Year old exactly. And then and then the yogi teaching

2383
01:48:06.000 --> 01:48:08.159
<v Speaker 1>the class goes, when you stumble, that's your body learning.

2384
01:48:08.239 --> 01:48:10.119
<v Speaker 1>You're like, thanks, and you can get back up.

2385
01:48:10.159 --> 01:48:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Right. No, that's middle aged, right, that's middle age you're

2386
01:48:11.960 --> 01:48:13.960
<v Speaker 2>talking about. By the way, when she says stumble, they

2387
01:48:14.000 --> 01:48:16.600
<v Speaker 2>cut to the bitch I did. The guy who's auditioning her,

2388
01:48:16.600 --> 01:48:20.039
<v Speaker 2>and he goes, oh, he's sneers he's so mean. This

2389
01:48:20.119 --> 01:48:22.840
<v Speaker 2>is a person who hates children. You should not do

2390
01:48:22.960 --> 01:48:27.000
<v Speaker 2>his job because his job asked like you are auditioning teenagers.

2391
01:48:27.159 --> 01:48:29.399
<v Speaker 1>This is a person whose dream it was to go

2392
01:48:29.439 --> 01:48:32.840
<v Speaker 1>to Juilliard for dance. He didn't get in, and has

2393
01:48:32.880 --> 01:48:35.640
<v Speaker 1>he somehow managed to get a job as the audition

2394
01:48:35.840 --> 01:48:37.119
<v Speaker 1>proctor and he.

2395
01:48:37.039 --> 01:48:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Gets to jerk off every night to the faces of

2396
01:48:39.600 --> 01:48:41.399
<v Speaker 2>disappointment that he's had that day.

2397
01:48:41.760 --> 01:48:45.119
<v Speaker 1>She apologizes and he's like, well, are you ready now?

2398
01:48:45.239 --> 01:48:47.920
<v Speaker 1>And she she can't speak, like, oh my god, all

2399
01:48:47.960 --> 01:48:51.079
<v Speaker 1>of this, her mother and Derek and her father and

2400
01:48:51.119 --> 01:48:54.159
<v Speaker 1>her life dreams crumbling around her. She can't speak. Erica,

2401
01:48:54.199 --> 01:48:58.119
<v Speaker 1>She's speechless, one might say. And Derek shouts from the

2402
01:48:58.119 --> 01:49:00.960
<v Speaker 1>back that she's ready. And the auditioner is what is this?

2403
01:49:01.119 --> 01:49:03.479
<v Speaker 1>What is this? And he runs up onto the stage

2404
01:49:03.479 --> 01:49:05.039
<v Speaker 1>and all the auditioners are like, well, this is not

2405
01:49:05.079 --> 01:49:07.319
<v Speaker 1>how we do things at Juilliard, young man. You get

2406
01:49:07.359 --> 01:49:08.479
<v Speaker 1>him out of here. We'll get him out of here.

2407
01:49:08.479 --> 01:49:10.920
<v Speaker 2>And he ignores them, and he's like, I'm the choreographer.

2408
01:49:11.199 --> 01:49:15.279
<v Speaker 1>Excuse me, I am Alvin Ailey. You twat I shut up.

2409

<v Speaker 2>I have notes.

2410
01:49:17.560 --> 01:49:20.439
<v Speaker 1>So he rushes up to the stage and He promises

2411
01:49:20.479 --> 01:49:23.279
<v Speaker 1>Sarah that she can do it. He tells her, look,

2412
01:49:23.720 --> 01:49:26.119
<v Speaker 1>no one's watching you but me. It's just me and

2415
01:49:42.000 --> 01:49:50.399
<v Speaker 2>Derek goes into the wings and Sarah starts her piece again. Okay, okay.

<v Speaker 2>Derek puts it in the dance. I the only thing

2451
01:51:17.359 --> 01:51:18.800
<v Speaker 2>it would have made it better is if they cut

2452
01:51:18.840 --> 01:51:20.199
<v Speaker 2>to Derek in the back of the room like a

2453
01:51:20.279 --> 01:51:23.479
<v Speaker 2>dance mom doing all that the steps in a half

2454
01:51:23.560 --> 01:51:24.199
<v Speaker 2>like half steps.

2455
01:51:24.439 --> 01:51:25.399

2457
01:51:28.399 --> 01:51:28.960
<v Speaker 2>she hit it.

2458
01:51:30.159 --> 01:51:32.840
<v Speaker 1>I want to talk about this chair, this chair, this

2459
01:51:33.000 --> 01:51:35.600
<v Speaker 1>shitty ass folding chair that she is like stepping on

2460
01:51:35.960 --> 01:51:38.000
<v Speaker 1>and doing all these that is a death trap. That

2461
01:51:38.159 --> 01:51:40.800
<v Speaker 1>is a death Okay, there is a famous there's a

2462
01:51:40.800 --> 01:51:44.359
<v Speaker 1>famous song in Chicago when Velma takes the stand and

2463
01:51:44.560 --> 01:51:49.119
<v Speaker 1>bib Newirth has said that she has like shoulder damage

2464
01:51:49.119 --> 01:51:51.600
<v Speaker 1>from having to carry that chair around because the chair

2465
01:51:51.680 --> 01:51:53.600
<v Speaker 1>was so heavy. Because the chair needs to be heavy

2466
01:51:53.640 --> 01:51:56.239
<v Speaker 1>because you have a grown woman flipping and taking her

2467
01:51:56.279 --> 01:51:58.439
<v Speaker 1>life over in her hands all the way over it.

2468
01:51:58.520 --> 01:52:00.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh so ned have a heavy chair, so doesn't fucking

2469
01:52:00.560 --> 01:52:03.640
<v Speaker 1>fall or move while she's doing that. Right this chair,

2470
01:52:03.960 --> 01:52:06.399
<v Speaker 1>she would be dead. She would have broken her neck.

2471
01:52:06.640 --> 01:52:08.439
<v Speaker 1>Two arabesques into this piece.

2472
01:52:08.600 --> 01:52:10.760
<v Speaker 2>She does that move that you see and like where

2473
01:52:10.760 --> 01:52:12.760
<v Speaker 2>she puts like she like knocks over the chair while

2474
01:52:12.760 --> 01:52:15.520
<v Speaker 2>she's dancing on it. Like yeah, like that that chair

2475
01:52:15.560 --> 01:52:18.159
<v Speaker 2>would have just slipped out from under our and slid

2476
01:52:18.199 --> 01:52:22.920
<v Speaker 2>fifty feet across the stage. Alas, despite the fact that

2477
01:52:22.960 --> 01:52:27.279
<v Speaker 2>Paul and Erica are duly unimpressed, yeah, yeah, the judges

2478
01:52:27.319 --> 01:52:28.840
<v Speaker 2>are all duly impressed.

2479
01:52:28.880 --> 01:52:32.439
<v Speaker 1>They're like, well, what are these? Is that a man spread?

2480
01:52:32.720 --> 01:52:34.159
<v Speaker 2>Is that a man I've never seen it, I've never

2481
01:52:34.159 --> 01:52:34.760
<v Speaker 2>seread that before.

2482
01:52:34.800 --> 01:52:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, I've never seen one in competition.

2483
01:52:36.800 --> 01:52:40.039
<v Speaker 2>What is this hip hop? I've heard of this. If

2484
01:52:40.119 --> 01:52:42.359
<v Speaker 2>my children have told me about hip hop, I've just

2485
01:52:42.399 --> 01:52:46.840
<v Speaker 2>never seen it before. The judges are so into her.

2486
01:52:47.199 --> 01:52:50.640
<v Speaker 2>She finishes and she's like thank you, and Derek's like

2487
01:52:50.720 --> 01:52:54.239
<v Speaker 2>whoa from her side, he rushes the stage, he hugs her,

2488
01:52:54.720 --> 01:52:59.079
<v Speaker 2>Sarah thanks the judges. The absolute prick of a judge.

2489
01:52:59.159 --> 01:53:01.359
<v Speaker 2>He takes his God he's wearing glasses. He moves them

2490
01:53:01.359 --> 01:53:04.159
<v Speaker 2>down on the bridge of his nose. He goes, miss Johnson,

2491
01:53:05.079 --> 01:53:08.600
<v Speaker 2>I can't say this on the record yet, but welcome

2492
01:53:08.760 --> 01:53:12.199
<v Speaker 2>to Juilliard. Look, let's talk about it. Like obviously that

2493
01:53:12.239 --> 01:53:15.239
<v Speaker 2>would never happen, but in my brain. He says that

2494
01:53:15.319 --> 01:53:17.840
<v Speaker 2>to her, and she's like, fuck, yeah, I got into Juilliard.

2495
01:53:17.880 --> 01:53:21.199
<v Speaker 2>And then literally five Misty Copelands come in right after

2496
01:53:21.239 --> 01:53:23.319
<v Speaker 2>her and blow her out of the water.

2497
01:53:24.039 --> 01:53:27.000
<v Speaker 3>And then they're like, oh shit, oh shit, well well

2498
01:53:27.000 --> 01:53:28.239
<v Speaker 3>we can We're never gonna see her again.

2499
01:53:28.239 --> 01:53:30.640
<v Speaker 2>We're only gonna take five girls from the Chicago area,

2500
01:53:30.680 --> 01:53:33.159
<v Speaker 2>and those other five were geniuses.

2501
01:53:33.479 --> 01:53:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

2502
01:53:34.000 --> 01:53:36.399
<v Speaker 2>Then they're like, oh, remember when we said that part.

2503
01:53:36.760 --> 01:53:40.239
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, sorry. They're positing that she is so good that

2504
01:53:40.279 --> 01:53:42.960
<v Speaker 1>there is no way that anyone else. Maybe she was

2505
01:53:42.960 --> 01:53:44.960
<v Speaker 1>the last audition of the day because it is now

2506
01:53:45.079 --> 01:53:46.600
<v Speaker 1>approximately eleven o'clock at night.

2507
01:53:46.640 --> 01:53:50.319
<v Speaker 2>It's they're angry. They're just letting people into Juilliard. They're like,

2508
01:53:50.319 --> 01:53:52.760
<v Speaker 2>like I could murder a deep dish pizza. Let's go,

2509
01:53:52.880 --> 01:53:53.760
<v Speaker 2>let's go quickly.

2510
01:53:53.960 --> 01:53:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Little fact about Juilliard. The dance, the dance. The dance

2511
01:53:57.600 --> 01:54:00.399
<v Speaker 1>section is actually two hundred people, but they cut one

2512
01:54:00.479 --> 01:54:02.760
<v Speaker 1>hundred and seventy five of them the first day. No,

2513
01:54:03.079 --> 01:54:05.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, you weren't meant to be here.

2514
01:54:05.239 --> 01:54:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Sarah and Derek embrace. Yes, victory for all.

2515
01:54:09.119 --> 01:54:12.039
<v Speaker 1>They head back home. They head to Maine Squeeze night

2516
01:54:12.039 --> 01:54:13.680
<v Speaker 1>at Steps, which is definitely not prom.

2517
01:54:13.760 --> 01:54:14.840
<v Speaker 2>And she's not wearing a dress.

2518
01:54:14.840 --> 01:54:18.359
<v Speaker 1>She's not wearing a dress, Hanil, speaking of what people

2519
01:54:18.359 --> 01:54:20.359
<v Speaker 1>are wearing, Okay, I haven't been to a club in

2520
01:54:20.359 --> 01:54:20.840
<v Speaker 1>a minute.

2521
01:54:21.840 --> 01:54:24.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm told one would never know, Paul, Yeah, one would

2522
01:54:24.920 --> 01:54:28.319
<v Speaker 2>absolutely never know based on everything about you, that you

2523
01:54:28.600 --> 01:54:32.119
<v Speaker 2>have not been to a nightclub in a minute.

2524
01:54:32.279 --> 01:54:34.840
<v Speaker 1>However, there was a time in my twenties where I

2525
01:54:34.880 --> 01:54:37.319
<v Speaker 1>did go to clubs and I did like dancing, And

2526
01:54:37.840 --> 01:54:41.680
<v Speaker 1>one of my absolute clearest memories is how fucking hot

2527
01:54:41.760 --> 01:54:42.800
<v Speaker 1>it is inside there.

2528
01:54:42.920 --> 01:54:45.159
<v Speaker 2>Every time they cut to the club. Shanil is wearing

2529
01:54:45.239 --> 01:54:46.319
<v Speaker 2>fourteen layers of clothes.

2530
01:54:46.479 --> 01:54:49.960
<v Speaker 1>She's wearing an actual long winter coat. Looks amazing to

2531
01:54:50.039 --> 01:54:53.039
<v Speaker 1>be clear, but like, you wouldn't wear that in a club.

2532
01:54:53.039 --> 01:54:53.720
<v Speaker 1>It's too hot.

2533
01:54:53.840 --> 01:54:57.720
<v Speaker 2>It's so hot. It's Satan's asshole, is there? Like yeah, absolutely?

2534
01:54:57.800 --> 01:55:02.520
<v Speaker 1>No, okay. So and Neil congratulates Sarah on her acceptance.

2535
01:55:02.640 --> 01:55:05.840
<v Speaker 1>They hug their friends again, and then they all head

2536
01:55:05.840 --> 01:55:08.720
<v Speaker 1>out onto the dance floor to do someone more that

2537
01:55:08.840 --> 01:55:09.640
<v Speaker 1>hip hop dancing.

2538
01:55:10.079 --> 01:55:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Sarah, go Sarah, Go Sarah.

2539
01:55:13.720 --> 01:55:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Oh, white Girl so embarrassing.

2540
01:55:16.600 --> 01:55:19.279
<v Speaker 2>This movie should have been called Go White Girl instead.

2541
01:55:19.439 --> 01:55:21.760
<v Speaker 2>Saved the Last Dance should have been called go White Girl,

2542
01:55:21.880 --> 01:55:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Go White Girl.

2543
01:55:26.520 --> 01:55:29.359
<v Speaker 1>If no one pitched that is that is a That

2544
01:55:29.479 --> 01:55:30.640
<v Speaker 1>is a massive fail.

2545
01:55:30.720 --> 01:55:32.520
<v Speaker 2>It's the same person who wrote It's an A and

2546
01:55:32.520 --> 01:55:35.560
<v Speaker 2>B conversation, So see yourself out and put it in

2547
01:55:35.600 --> 01:55:37.880
<v Speaker 2>the mouth of a seventeen year old boy.

2548
01:55:38.840 --> 01:55:41.439
<v Speaker 1>All right, everyone, That is the end of Save the

2549
01:55:41.520 --> 01:55:43.479
<v Speaker 1>Last Dance. Stick around. We will be right back with

2550
01:55:43.520 --> 01:55:54.760
<v Speaker 1>our random observations and final rankings.

2551
01:55:54.880 --> 01:55:57.279
<v Speaker 2>And we're back. Paul. I'm gonna put my chair away

2552
01:55:57.840 --> 01:56:01.560
<v Speaker 2>and ask you if you have any observations about this film.

2553
01:56:02.000 --> 01:56:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Uh yeah, I'm gonna start with a serious one, and

2554
01:56:03.840 --> 01:56:05.920
<v Speaker 1>then we're gonna we're gonna slide into the stupid.

2555
01:56:05.680 --> 01:56:07.960
<v Speaker 2>Got it, Okay, mine is gonna be all stupid.

2556
01:56:08.000 --> 01:56:09.159
<v Speaker 1>Okay, perfect because you know what we.

2557
01:56:09.199 --> 01:56:11.800
<v Speaker 2>Didn't celebrate enough, I think during the recap portion of

2558
01:56:11.840 --> 01:56:14.800
<v Speaker 2>our show is how completely stupid this movie is true.

2559
01:56:14.840 --> 01:56:17.920
<v Speaker 2>And honestly that's a feature, not a bug. Yeah, like

2560
01:56:18.000 --> 01:56:20.439
<v Speaker 2>you want you want your like Ernest High School for

2561
01:56:20.479 --> 01:56:24.159
<v Speaker 2>dramas to be also pretty stupid, pretty pretty fucking stupid.

2562
01:56:24.239 --> 01:56:26.920
<v Speaker 1>If they get too serious, it's no fun. Yeah, all right.

2563
01:56:27.000 --> 01:56:29.199
<v Speaker 1>So in that very first English class where she first

2564
01:56:29.199 --> 01:56:31.520
<v Speaker 1>meets Derek, there is a moment where the teacher is

2565
01:56:31.560 --> 01:56:34.600
<v Speaker 1>asking the class like what did Truman Capoti do? Like

2566
01:56:34.600 --> 01:56:37.079
<v Speaker 1>what what made him special? Or whatever? Yeah, and Snookie,

2567
01:56:37.079 --> 01:56:39.239
<v Speaker 1>this is when we first meet. Snookie is like, yo,

2568
01:56:39.359 --> 01:56:42.239
<v Speaker 1>he was gay. He had a sweet tooth, right, which

2569
01:56:42.239 --> 01:56:44.399
<v Speaker 1>is pretty funny. And then he keeps going with like

2570
01:56:44.479 --> 01:56:48.119
<v Speaker 1>the the homophobia, you know, like yeah, it's it's not

2571
01:56:48.399 --> 01:56:50.720
<v Speaker 1>like the worst homophobia ever, like, but he's just like

2572
01:56:50.800 --> 01:56:52.520
<v Speaker 1>making fun of the fact that he's gay, right.

2573
01:56:52.439 --> 01:56:55.159
<v Speaker 2>Which means Snookie also never read James Baldwin. Derek.

2574
01:56:55.399 --> 01:56:59.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, good point. So the teacher is like, okay, great,

2575
01:56:59.600 --> 01:57:02.319
<v Speaker 1>we can and we can promote you to kindergarten enough.

2576
01:57:02.439 --> 01:57:04.319
<v Speaker 1>So I would just like to submit that this is fine.

2577
01:57:04.800 --> 01:57:06.199
<v Speaker 1>I am fine with all of this.

2578
01:57:06.600 --> 01:57:09.199
<v Speaker 2>Too, right. I think he's I'm pretty sure he does.

2579
01:57:09.319 --> 01:57:12.279
<v Speaker 1>Again a situation where like, yeah, that's what a kid

2580
01:57:12.279 --> 01:57:15.840
<v Speaker 1>in two thousand and one would say, And it wasn't

2581
01:57:15.880 --> 01:57:18.399
<v Speaker 1>The actor did a good job of It wasn't like

2582
01:57:18.479 --> 01:57:21.079
<v Speaker 1>he was disgusted by it. He was trying to be

2583
01:57:21.159 --> 01:57:24.279
<v Speaker 1>a class clown with it. So it was it was

2584
01:57:24.880 --> 01:57:26.359
<v Speaker 1>low key and the teacher.

2585
01:57:26.159 --> 01:57:27.680
<v Speaker 2>He's clowning on Truman Capoti.

2586
01:57:27.920 --> 01:57:31.399
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yeah, exactly, and Truman Capote would obviously unhinches drawn

2587
01:57:31.439 --> 01:57:34.680
<v Speaker 1>swallow the kid hole, right, but the teacher shuts it

2588
01:57:34.720 --> 01:57:36.359
<v Speaker 1>down and like in a way, and the and then

2589
01:57:36.359 --> 01:57:38.560
<v Speaker 1>the class just drops it. And I just thought that

2590
01:57:38.600 --> 01:57:40.680
<v Speaker 1>was a very good way of like because people are like, well,

2591
01:57:40.720 --> 01:57:42.239
<v Speaker 1>that's how it was in two thousand and one. People

2592
01:57:42.279 --> 01:57:43.760
<v Speaker 1>said that. I was like, true, and this is a

2593
01:57:43.800 --> 01:57:46.560
<v Speaker 1>way to demonstrate how you can shut such a thing down.

2594
01:57:46.600 --> 01:57:48.279
<v Speaker 1>So I just thought that was a it was a

2595
01:57:48.319 --> 01:57:51.439
<v Speaker 1>good moment that didn't in any way like co sign

2596
01:57:51.439 --> 01:57:53.520
<v Speaker 1>any of like the homophobia stuff going on. It was

2597
01:57:53.520 --> 01:57:55.319
<v Speaker 1>like this this is who this kid is. This kid

2598
01:57:55.359 --> 01:57:58.039
<v Speaker 1>would say something like that, yeah, and that's fine.

2599
01:57:58.159 --> 01:57:59.960
<v Speaker 2>Well let me start with my most serious one for

2600
01:58:00.520 --> 01:58:04.520
<v Speaker 2>he's a little out of order. But like that sex scene, great,

2601
01:58:04.720 --> 01:58:06.560
<v Speaker 2>no real problems to it at all. I didn't have

2602
01:58:06.560 --> 01:58:08.640
<v Speaker 2>any real problems with it. I thought it was really

2603
01:58:09.439 --> 01:58:15.399
<v Speaker 2>elegantly portrayed for young people, you know, lots of consent everywhere, wonderful.

2604
01:58:16.039 --> 01:58:20.439
<v Speaker 2>If I had a note, though, it would be for

2605
01:58:20.680 --> 01:58:26.279
<v Speaker 2>the person underscoring the scene with this song true Colors.

2606
01:58:27.319 --> 01:58:30.199
<v Speaker 2>I get it, they're interracial. I see your true Colors,

2607
01:58:30.199 --> 01:58:33.880
<v Speaker 2>but it's about something else. It's so lame and on

2608
01:58:33.960 --> 01:58:36.319
<v Speaker 2>the nose and horrible. And there's no way either of

2609
01:58:36.359 --> 01:58:39.279
<v Speaker 2>these two kids listens to that music. Like neither of

2610
01:58:39.359 --> 01:58:40.640
<v Speaker 2>them is like, hang on, let me put on my

2611
01:58:40.720 --> 01:58:41.920
<v Speaker 2>Cyndi Lauper Fuck mix.

2612
01:58:42.000 --> 01:58:43.279
<v Speaker 1>Well, do you realize that's a cover?

2613
01:58:43.840 --> 01:58:46.319
<v Speaker 2>It is a cover. Yeah, I get that, part two,

2614
01:58:46.319 --> 01:58:47.479
<v Speaker 2>but no, bad.

2615
01:58:47.479 --> 01:58:50.279
<v Speaker 1>Bad, bad song choice fair enough.

2616
01:58:50.399 --> 01:58:52.680
<v Speaker 2>I do not like this song. This song choice killed

2617
01:58:52.720 --> 01:58:53.199
<v Speaker 2>my boner.

2618
01:58:56.359 --> 01:59:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember Lindsay Prayer Prayer Forward Lindsay's second moment

2619
01:59:01.960 --> 01:59:04.800
<v Speaker 1>in the movie, so she has that first scene basically

2620
01:59:04.800 --> 01:59:07.359
<v Speaker 1>disappears from the movie and then we have one phone

2621
01:59:07.359 --> 01:59:12.560
<v Speaker 1>call between between Sarah and Lindsay. This is after the

2622
01:59:12.680 --> 01:59:16.560
<v Speaker 1>first dance montage. So Sarah has just been in the cafeteria.

2623
01:59:16.600 --> 01:59:18.520
<v Speaker 1>She's learned how to stand, she has learned how to sit.

2624
01:59:18.800 --> 01:59:21.119
<v Speaker 1>She has demonstrated some ballet moves for Derek, and he

2625
01:59:21.119 --> 01:59:23.520
<v Speaker 1>thinks ballet is a big deal. Yeah, and now then

2626
01:59:23.520 --> 01:59:25.119
<v Speaker 1>she we cut back to her in the apartment and

2627
01:59:25.199 --> 01:59:27.600
<v Speaker 1>the she is in media res and a phone call

2628
01:59:27.640 --> 01:59:31.079
<v Speaker 1>with Lindsay, and Lindsay says, I'm just going to I'm

2629
01:59:31.079 --> 01:59:34.560
<v Speaker 1>just gonna do this conversation for everybody. Did you see

2630
01:59:34.560 --> 01:59:41.880
<v Speaker 1>anyone get shot yet? Cool? No, I didn't move to Bosnia. Jesus, Sarah,

2631
01:59:41.880 --> 01:59:44.399
<v Speaker 1>you're in the freaking ghetto. Forget about the drive bys.

2632
01:59:44.399 --> 01:59:46.960
<v Speaker 1>How are you supposed to meet anybody? Well? I did

2633
01:59:47.039 --> 01:59:49.840
<v Speaker 1>meet somebody. Actually, he's pretty cool. They got white guys

2634
01:59:49.840 --> 01:59:50.479
<v Speaker 1>at your school.

2635
01:59:52.079 --> 01:59:56.600
<v Speaker 2>Excellent. That honestly is pretty good writing. Except for that.

2636
01:59:56.760 --> 01:59:59.439
<v Speaker 2>Have you seen anyone get shot yet? That's even your

2637
01:59:59.560 --> 02:00:03.840
<v Speaker 2>dumbest Why it's not going to be that dump another

2638
02:00:03.880 --> 02:00:06.560
<v Speaker 2>stupid one. Yeah, this is not This is a little

2639
02:00:06.600 --> 02:00:09.119
<v Speaker 2>the actress fault. We've said wonderful things about Terry Kenny

2640
02:00:09.159 --> 02:00:13.560
<v Speaker 2>who plays Roy. He cannot convincingly carry suitcases up up.

2641
02:00:16.079 --> 02:00:19.239
<v Speaker 2>There is nothing in those suitcases. He is carrying them

2642
02:00:19.239 --> 02:00:22.319
<v Speaker 2>like they are made of air. Like a teenage girl

2643
02:00:22.359 --> 02:00:25.319
<v Speaker 2>didn't cram everything she owns into two suitcases.

2644
02:00:25.479 --> 02:00:27.279
<v Speaker 1>That house was big that she came from too. How

2645
02:00:27.319 --> 02:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>much shit did they did they make her get rid of?

2646
02:00:29.520 --> 02:00:30.319
<v Speaker 1>You live with her dad?

2647
02:00:30.520 --> 02:00:31.079
<v Speaker 2>So sad?

2648
02:00:31.479 --> 02:00:31.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

2649
02:00:31.960 --> 02:00:34.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Like that girl didn't have to jump on that

2650
02:00:34.520 --> 02:00:37.039
<v Speaker 2>suitcase to fit all her shit in there. This guy

2651
02:00:37.119 --> 02:00:39.199
<v Speaker 2>is just like swinging them up the stairs like they

2652
02:00:39.239 --> 02:00:39.920
<v Speaker 2>weigh nothing.

2653
02:00:40.840 --> 02:00:42.680
<v Speaker 1>You notice that in her first Juilliard audition, they have

2654
02:00:42.720 --> 02:00:44.319
<v Speaker 1>a placard out and they misspelled Juilliard.

2655
02:00:44.840 --> 02:00:50.479
<v Speaker 2>No, no, oh my god, No, I didn't see it.

2656
02:00:50.479 --> 02:00:53.279
<v Speaker 1>It's j It's they spell that j u l l

2657
02:00:53.359 --> 02:00:55.239
<v Speaker 1>i a r d. It should be j u I

2658
02:00:55.399 --> 02:00:56.279
<v Speaker 1>l l i a r d.

2659
02:00:57.079 --> 02:00:58.760
<v Speaker 2>Is it the only time anyone spells Julliard?

2660
02:00:59.039 --> 02:01:00.079
<v Speaker 1>I believe so.

2661
02:01:00.079 --> 02:01:02.920
<v Speaker 2>So that means they got it wrong one hundred percent

2662
02:01:02.920 --> 02:01:05.800
<v Speaker 2>of the time correct, not not fifty percent or twenty

2663
02:01:05.800 --> 02:01:08.159
<v Speaker 2>five percent. One percent of the time that they showed

2664
02:01:08.159 --> 02:01:12.720
<v Speaker 2>the word Juilliard is incorrect. Maybe they had to maybe

2665
02:01:12.760 --> 02:01:15.159
<v Speaker 2>like the high school where they can't legally say oh, yeah,

2666
02:01:15.199 --> 02:01:17.640
<v Speaker 2>high school. They're like, it's not that Juilliard.

2667
02:01:19.159 --> 02:01:20.680
<v Speaker 1>This is the other Juilliard in the yard.

2668
02:01:20.760 --> 02:01:23.840
<v Speaker 2>It's the other school named Juilliard. Yeah, I just have

2669
02:01:23.960 --> 02:01:26.479
<v Speaker 2>one more. And it's I'm trying to decipher what the

2670
02:01:26.520 --> 02:01:30.520
<v Speaker 2>fuck this means. There's a scene like after after they're

2671
02:01:30.600 --> 02:01:33.439
<v Speaker 2>dancing in the club the first time, Derek is like

2672
02:01:33.560 --> 02:01:36.399
<v Speaker 2>trying to get trying to like flirt with Sarah and

2673
02:01:36.439 --> 02:01:40.079
<v Speaker 2>he goes, let's go braveheart. What what does that mean?

2674
02:01:40.359 --> 02:01:40.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

2675
02:01:40.800 --> 02:01:42.960
<v Speaker 2>Is it because of her outfits? Because she's wearing like

2676
02:01:42.960 --> 02:01:48.119
<v Speaker 2>like like a Tartan looking like oh maybe She even

2677
02:01:48.159 --> 02:01:49.960
<v Speaker 2>says my clothes are from the Gap, and I'm like,

2678
02:01:50.000 --> 02:01:51.760
<v Speaker 2>maybe the Gap at that point was doing a lot

2679
02:01:51.760 --> 02:01:53.680
<v Speaker 2>of like Tartan colors.

2680
02:01:53.720 --> 02:01:55.399
<v Speaker 1>You know, I heard that line and I think I

2681
02:01:55.520 --> 02:01:58.359
<v Speaker 1>meant it. I think he I think I interpreted as

2682
02:01:58.439 --> 02:02:01.399
<v Speaker 1>him like calling her like scared to dance?

2683
02:02:01.960 --> 02:02:03.199
<v Speaker 2>But how is that brave heart?

2684
02:02:03.279 --> 02:02:03.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

2685
02:02:03.960 --> 02:02:06.880
<v Speaker 2>I was like she's kind of being like pugnacious with

2686
02:02:06.960 --> 02:02:09.319
<v Speaker 2>him at the bar where she's just like, yeah, I'm

2687
02:02:09.359 --> 02:02:11.520
<v Speaker 2>gonna fight back with you or whatever. He's like, let's

2688
02:02:11.560 --> 02:02:13.399
<v Speaker 2>go brave heart, because you're a fighter. I don't know,

2689
02:02:14.079 --> 02:02:15.119
<v Speaker 2>genuinely confused.

2690
02:02:15.239 --> 02:02:17.239
<v Speaker 1>Well, don't you know, she screamed in his face. You

2691
02:02:17.279 --> 02:02:20.239
<v Speaker 1>can take my life, but you can never take my freedom.

2692
02:02:20.800 --> 02:02:22.840
<v Speaker 2>Did forget to mention she came to the club with

2693
02:02:22.960 --> 02:02:24.600
<v Speaker 2>blue covering off her face.

2694
02:02:24.680 --> 02:02:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, she kept calling him sugar ticks?

2695
02:02:26.079 --> 02:02:28.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? No, no, she covered she covered her face in

2696
02:02:28.159 --> 02:02:30.239
<v Speaker 2>blue paint, and she didn't have a broad sword. Yeah. Oh,

2697
02:02:30.239 --> 02:02:32.039
<v Speaker 2>I just got where you came up with sugar tips.

2698
02:02:32.039 --> 02:02:35.840
<v Speaker 2>I think that was absolutely not a movie, brave heart, Paul,

2699
02:02:36.000 --> 02:02:38.439
<v Speaker 2>How shall we rank Save the Last Dance?

2700
02:02:38.840 --> 02:02:43.640
<v Speaker 1>One to ten? Tickle dicks. If you put crazy eyebrows

2701
02:02:43.680 --> 02:02:44.760
<v Speaker 1>on your dick, it's a whipple dick.

2702
02:02:44.840 --> 02:02:48.199
<v Speaker 2>It's a if you if you put if you put

2703
02:02:48.199 --> 02:02:49.760
<v Speaker 2>little dots on it, it's a nipple dick.

2704
02:02:50.920 --> 02:02:52.560
<v Speaker 1>If you hold up, if you hold up two mirrors

2705
02:02:52.560 --> 02:02:53.880
<v Speaker 1>on either side of it, you can make a triple

2706
02:02:53.920 --> 02:02:57.239
<v Speaker 1>deck a trip dick, A trip dick.

2707
02:02:57.279 --> 02:03:02.159
<v Speaker 2>Here, even better, it's an actual trip dick. How about

2708
02:03:02.239 --> 02:03:06.920
<v Speaker 2>one to ten? Eleven thirty pm at night auditions?

2709
02:03:05.880 --> 02:03:09.600
<v Speaker 1>I loved those. I do remember a couple of times

2710
02:03:09.600 --> 02:03:11.720
<v Speaker 1>when I was acting. If you're auditioning for like a

2711
02:03:11.760 --> 02:03:13.880
<v Speaker 1>student film at Columbia, they'd be like, your audition's at

2712
02:03:13.920 --> 02:03:16.279
<v Speaker 1>ten pm, and I'd be like, no, it's not I'm like,

2713
02:03:16.359 --> 02:03:17.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm not doing that.

2714
02:03:17.079 --> 02:03:19.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm not getting co code. I watched Fame. I know

2715
02:03:19.760 --> 02:03:22.840
<v Speaker 2>what happens at ten pm in an audition room. Try again,

2716
02:03:22.960 --> 02:03:24.600
<v Speaker 2>try I'm not taking this shirt off.

2717
02:03:25.239 --> 02:03:27.439
<v Speaker 1>One to ten straight adoptees named Kyle.

2718
02:03:29.600 --> 02:03:30.359
<v Speaker 2>Named Tafur.

2719
02:03:30.600 --> 02:03:37.199
<v Speaker 1>Tofur, that's it, named straight adoptees named Tafur. We got there. Finally,

2720
02:03:37.920 --> 02:03:38.359
<v Speaker 1>One to.

2721
02:03:38.319 --> 02:03:40.279
<v Speaker 2>Ten chairs that got into Juilliard.

2722
02:03:40.720 --> 02:03:43.720
<v Speaker 1>The dancing was incredible, but the chair, that fucking chair

2723
02:03:43.840 --> 02:03:47.560
<v Speaker 1>that transcended. Yeah, I saw God in that chair.

2724
02:03:47.600 --> 02:03:49.720
<v Speaker 2>That chair is the next Martha Graham.

2725
02:03:49.760 --> 02:03:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Did you see it doing the thing from bird Cage

2726
02:03:51.880 --> 02:03:54.840
<v Speaker 1>Martha Graham, Martha Graham, Madonna, Madonna, and he kept it

2727
02:03:54.840 --> 02:03:57.880
<v Speaker 1>all inside, all inside, all inside. Let's do this one, Okay,

2728
02:03:57.960 --> 02:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>this one makes us happy. I think, do you want

2729
02:03:59.920 --> 02:04:01.119
<v Speaker 1>to go first? There? Shall I go first?

2730
02:04:01.680 --> 02:04:03.600
<v Speaker 2>I'll go first on this one, go for it. I

2731
02:04:03.600 --> 02:04:06.760
<v Speaker 2>think it actually ages pretty well. I'm trying to think of, like,

2732
02:04:07.720 --> 02:04:10.600
<v Speaker 2>how many high school films had an interracial romance at

2733
02:04:10.600 --> 02:04:12.680
<v Speaker 2>the center of them up until two thousand and one,

2734
02:04:12.760 --> 02:04:14.680
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know if that I can I really

2735
02:04:14.720 --> 02:04:16.680
<v Speaker 2>genuinely can't think of any off the top of my head.

2736
02:04:18.479 --> 02:04:21.439
<v Speaker 2>We're also they were like this is the thing. Yeah,

2737
02:04:21.479 --> 02:04:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Like it's the point of the movie. It's like, this

2738
02:04:23.600 --> 02:04:29.479
<v Speaker 2>movie's not really about dance, it's about like acceptance. So

2739
02:04:29.600 --> 02:04:32.279
<v Speaker 2>it makes a level of sense that they hit the

2740
02:04:32.359 --> 02:04:35.840
<v Speaker 2>nail on the head a lot about it, right that,

2741
02:04:35.960 --> 02:04:39.319
<v Speaker 2>Like every character seems to have an opinion except for God,

2742
02:04:39.359 --> 02:04:43.039
<v Speaker 2>bless him Roy, Thank God Roy is the only character

2743
02:04:43.039 --> 02:04:45.399
<v Speaker 2>who's like, I have no opinion about you, and you're

2744
02:04:45.399 --> 02:04:49.279
<v Speaker 2>a black boyfriend, But like every other character having an opinion,

2745
02:04:49.479 --> 02:04:53.000
<v Speaker 2>and like the struggle she feels about being judged for

2746
02:04:53.039 --> 02:04:56.039
<v Speaker 2>it and like feeling guilty in a way. Like all

2747
02:04:56.079 --> 02:04:58.039
<v Speaker 2>of that makes sense, even if it is a little cringey,

2748
02:04:58.079 --> 02:05:01.479
<v Speaker 2>because I feel like, hopefully we've moved past this conversation

2749
02:05:02.000 --> 02:05:05.119
<v Speaker 2>in cinema, not even in life, but just in cinema,

2750
02:05:05.239 --> 02:05:07.840
<v Speaker 2>we've moved past this conversation. But you have to give

2751
02:05:07.840 --> 02:05:11.439
<v Speaker 2>the movie credit for possibly being one of the earlier ones.

2752
02:05:11.479 --> 02:05:13.479
<v Speaker 2>And again, I'm talking about the high school genre, so

2753
02:05:13.560 --> 02:05:16.279
<v Speaker 2>I get it. Like, if that's the message, you really

2754
02:05:16.319 --> 02:05:20.000
<v Speaker 2>want to be crystal clear with it, it's cringey now

2755
02:05:20.039 --> 02:05:22.840
<v Speaker 2>to watch it, and it's a little like retrograde now

2756
02:05:22.960 --> 02:05:25.560
<v Speaker 2>because we're twenty five years ahead of it all in

2757
02:05:25.600 --> 02:05:27.359
<v Speaker 2>all the movies, Hard is in the right place. I

2758
02:05:27.720 --> 02:05:31.079
<v Speaker 2>think there are some stereotypes. I'm gonna let you talk

2759
02:05:31.119 --> 02:05:32.840
<v Speaker 2>about that since you brought it up earlier, But like,

2760
02:05:33.640 --> 02:05:35.439
<v Speaker 2>and I agree with you, I think there are some

2761
02:05:35.520 --> 02:05:39.439
<v Speaker 2>like uncomfortable and like first idea stereotypes in the movie

2762
02:05:39.479 --> 02:05:43.920
<v Speaker 2>that maybe we could have finessed nuanced a touch a

2763
02:05:43.960 --> 02:05:48.039
<v Speaker 2>little bit more. But you know what a plus for effort,

2764
02:05:48.239 --> 02:05:51.680
<v Speaker 2>I would say, thank you for Carrie Washington for carrying

2765
02:05:51.680 --> 02:05:54.479
<v Speaker 2>the emotional weight of this film on your back, on

2766
02:05:54.520 --> 02:05:58.600
<v Speaker 2>your very beautiful shoulders. Thank you, Bianca Lawson, just for

2767
02:05:58.680 --> 02:06:02.560
<v Speaker 2>being you, just for existing, bless you. Thank you. I

2768
02:06:02.600 --> 02:06:04.880
<v Speaker 2>hope she did. I hope she agedes well. Like as

2769
02:06:04.960 --> 02:06:06.880
<v Speaker 2>much as I've talked about how much I love this woman,

2770
02:06:06.920 --> 02:06:08.479
<v Speaker 2>I genuinely don't know anything about her.

2771
02:06:08.760 --> 02:06:10.199
<v Speaker 1>I mean, she played teenagers until.

2772
02:06:09.960 --> 02:06:11.720
<v Speaker 2>She was forty two, except that she's so hot.

2773
02:06:14.119 --> 02:06:16.079
<v Speaker 1>We may get a ceasing desist letter from her agent.

2774
02:06:16.199 --> 02:06:19.720
<v Speaker 2>But you know what, it's not a problem. I don't

2775
02:06:19.760 --> 02:06:25.640
<v Speaker 2>have a problem you guys. But good female characters pass

2776
02:06:25.800 --> 02:06:30.079
<v Speaker 2>the Bechdel test with flying colors. Yeah, I'm gonna give

2777
02:06:30.119 --> 02:06:32.479
<v Speaker 2>it an eight. Okay, yeah, I want to give it more,

2778
02:06:32.479 --> 02:06:34.600
<v Speaker 2>but as a white girl, I'm not sure I might

2779
02:06:34.640 --> 02:06:37.279
<v Speaker 2>be missing some shit that I'm like, a black woman's like,

2780
02:06:37.439 --> 02:06:39.880
<v Speaker 2>girl miss that, and I'm like, oh, you're right, I

2781
02:06:39.880 --> 02:06:43.239
<v Speaker 2>did miss that. So I'm gonna tentatively give it an

2782
02:06:43.239 --> 02:06:45.000
<v Speaker 2>eight because I just don't want to fuck this one

2783
02:06:45.079 --> 02:06:49.079
<v Speaker 2>up and be that girl. So yeah, eight out of

2784
02:06:49.119 --> 02:06:53.359
<v Speaker 2>ten chairs that fucking nailed their Juilliard auditions. Okay, how

2785
02:06:53.359 --> 02:06:53.800
<v Speaker 2>about you?

2786
02:06:54.520 --> 02:06:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Uh yeah, I agree mostly with what you're saying, Like

2787
02:06:57.840 --> 02:07:01.239
<v Speaker 1>great female representation, there's no gay representation to speak of.

2788
02:07:01.279 --> 02:07:03.560
<v Speaker 1>The little the little gay moment in the class is

2789
02:07:03.920 --> 02:07:08.079
<v Speaker 1>really all that happens, and I would say it's handled well.

2790
02:07:08.199 --> 02:07:12.119
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what to do with the stereotypes like

2791
02:07:12.119 --> 02:07:15.159
<v Speaker 1>like they are. They are I think broadly considered to

2792
02:07:15.159 --> 02:07:19.760
<v Speaker 1>be harmful stereotypes, but while they are not nuanced, they

2793
02:07:19.760 --> 02:07:22.840
<v Speaker 1>are they are still like stories that are being told,

2794
02:07:23.000 --> 02:07:26.439
<v Speaker 1>and at that time, the one that pops most strongly

2795
02:07:26.520 --> 02:07:28.840
<v Speaker 1>to mind is the teen mother. I think they deal

2796
02:07:28.920 --> 02:07:31.039
<v Speaker 1>with that well because a she's shown being a good

2797
02:07:31.079 --> 02:07:34.199
<v Speaker 1>and caring mother who cares for her child and it's

2798
02:07:34.239 --> 02:07:37.960
<v Speaker 1>not ruining her life. Perhaps there were choices she wouldn't

2799
02:07:37.960 --> 02:07:40.199
<v Speaker 1>have made earlier if this is where it was gonna

2800
02:07:40.199 --> 02:07:42.520
<v Speaker 1>wind up. But like she loves her son, she's very

2801
02:07:42.520 --> 02:07:44.439
<v Speaker 1>happy with her son. She's still going to school, she

2802
02:07:44.479 --> 02:07:45.279
<v Speaker 1>still has a future.

2803
02:07:45.359 --> 02:07:47.319
<v Speaker 3>Like it's it's so, I think that's saving up for school,

2804
02:07:47.359 --> 02:07:48.920
<v Speaker 3>saving up for school for design school.

2805
02:07:49.000 --> 02:07:50.720
<v Speaker 2>She wants to be a clothing designer.

2806
02:07:50.880 --> 02:07:54.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so I think I think that's I think from

2807
02:07:54.279 --> 02:07:56.880
<v Speaker 1>my perspective, that is a net positive. I would say,

2808
02:07:56.960 --> 02:08:01.520
<v Speaker 1>I would say the black kid who's on the wrong path,

2809
02:08:01.560 --> 02:08:03.920
<v Speaker 1>who doesn't get off the path's a drug dealer. And

2810
02:08:03.960 --> 02:08:07.560
<v Speaker 1>the drive by like that stuff I think is a

2811
02:08:07.560 --> 02:08:08.600
<v Speaker 1>little harder to swallow.

2812
02:08:08.680 --> 02:08:09.640
<v Speaker 2>You also go too hard.

2813
02:08:09.760 --> 02:08:12.039
<v Speaker 1>They go too hard on it, right, Like I wish

2814
02:08:12.119 --> 02:08:14.680
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't it didn't escalate to drive bys, like if

2815
02:08:14.720 --> 02:08:16.439
<v Speaker 1>they had kept it more.

2816
02:08:16.279 --> 02:08:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Like selling drugs. Drug that's bad enough, ye talking about

2817
02:08:20.880 --> 02:08:22.239
<v Speaker 2>it like it's not a big deal. It is bad

2818
02:08:22.319 --> 02:08:23.760
<v Speaker 2>enough that he's like just to.

2819
02:08:23.640 --> 02:08:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Have him do that, and like getting into fights in

2820
02:08:25.880 --> 02:08:28.439
<v Speaker 1>the clubs and finally eventually Derek is like, I'm not fighting,

2821
02:08:28.479 --> 02:08:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Like that guy didn't do anything you're just starting fights

2822
02:08:30.680 --> 02:08:32.960
<v Speaker 1>or something like. I get that that like takes the

2823
02:08:33.039 --> 02:08:37.239
<v Speaker 1>drama out of it, but like it it reads as

2824
02:08:37.439 --> 02:08:42.960
<v Speaker 1>very like dare program. I guess, like to me, now.

2825
02:08:42.920 --> 02:08:44.920
<v Speaker 2>You take one puff of weed, next thing you know,

2826
02:08:44.960 --> 02:08:45.760
<v Speaker 2>you're doing drive back.

2827
02:08:46.119 --> 02:08:48.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. If you had told me at seven that if

2828
02:08:48.079 --> 02:08:49.560
<v Speaker 1>I smoke me and I would wind up pregnant, I

2829
02:08:49.600 --> 02:08:51.479
<v Speaker 1>probably would have believed you.

2830
02:08:51.199 --> 02:08:53.640
<v Speaker 2>If you if you smoke weed, you're gonna end up

2831
02:08:53.640 --> 02:08:54.960
<v Speaker 2>in a drive by the next day.

2832
02:08:55.119 --> 02:08:59.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, So I don't like you said. We're two

2833
02:08:59.039 --> 02:09:01.800
<v Speaker 1>white people talking about we might be missing things, and

2834
02:09:01.920 --> 02:09:04.479
<v Speaker 1>we apologize if we are. We're trying to be as

2835
02:09:04.960 --> 02:09:10.359
<v Speaker 1>holistically thoughtful as possible. I think that the movie's a

2836
02:09:10.399 --> 02:09:13.920
<v Speaker 1>net positive, like it is pushing the genre forward. I'm

2837
02:09:13.920 --> 02:09:16.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna give it a seven. I want to give it

2838
02:09:16.960 --> 02:09:20.840
<v Speaker 1>a seven out of ten chairs that absolutely the extension

2839
02:09:20.920 --> 02:09:23.479
<v Speaker 1>on those legs is it's enough. It's enough. You're in

2840
02:09:23.520 --> 02:09:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Juliard already chair with the caveat that we might be

2841
02:09:28.960 --> 02:09:31.680
<v Speaker 1>missing something. But I think it's a net positive, and

2842
02:09:31.720 --> 02:09:33.399
<v Speaker 1>I think that the movie's heart is very much in

2843
02:09:33.399 --> 02:09:33.880
<v Speaker 1>the right place.

2844
02:09:33.920 --> 02:09:35.840
<v Speaker 2>It's a little bit of a time capsule piece. It's

2845
02:09:36.159 --> 02:09:37.199
<v Speaker 2>very two thousand and one.

2846
02:09:37.479 --> 02:09:40.880
<v Speaker 1>It's very like, it's very It reminded me of Friends.

2847
02:09:41.079 --> 02:09:43.079
<v Speaker 1>We talked about. Friends were like, oh, Friends like had

2848
02:09:43.079 --> 02:09:45.319
<v Speaker 1>the first lesbian wedding on TV, and friends like one

2849
02:09:45.399 --> 02:09:49.640
<v Speaker 1>glad Awards, and now we're like, well, Friends is fucking homophobic.

2850
02:09:50.680 --> 02:09:52.000
<v Speaker 1>All things can be true.

2851
02:09:52.359 --> 02:09:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, it reminds me of our conversation years ago about

2852
02:09:54.960 --> 02:09:58.720
<v Speaker 2>American Pie. Yeah, where like, yeah, American Pie is deeply problematic,

2853
02:09:58.760 --> 02:10:01.720
<v Speaker 2>but at the time it was it really moved the

2854
02:10:01.760 --> 02:10:06.319
<v Speaker 2>needle into like sex positivity in a conversation, and it

2855
02:10:06.399 --> 02:10:08.800
<v Speaker 2>really there were a lot of girl characters that you'd

2856
02:10:08.880 --> 02:10:11.800
<v Speaker 2>never see before in like a fun sex romp movie. Yeah,

2857
02:10:11.800 --> 02:10:15.840
<v Speaker 2>it was like that was great and so like so like, yeah,

2858
02:10:15.880 --> 02:10:19.199
<v Speaker 2>there's problems now, but at the time it if it

2859
02:10:19.239 --> 02:10:21.039
<v Speaker 2>moves the needle, I think we should give it credit.

2860
02:10:21.159 --> 02:10:23.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, And I don't think any of this stuff

2861
02:10:23.359 --> 02:10:28.079
<v Speaker 1>in this movie ages into offensive. It just ages into like, okay,

2862
02:10:28.359 --> 02:10:30.760
<v Speaker 1>like it still little retrograde, tone deaf. Yeah, and so

2863
02:10:31.159 --> 02:10:33.079
<v Speaker 1>I think I think it deserves a high score. So

2864
02:10:33.079 --> 02:10:35.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna give it a seven out of ten. Yeah,

2865
02:10:35.560 --> 02:10:37.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to offer a palate cleanser.

2866
02:10:37.239 --> 02:10:39.880
<v Speaker 2>Please watch that Chloe Fine min sketch on Saturday Night

2867

2868
02:10:42.960 --> 02:10:45.279

2869
02:10:46.079 --> 02:10:48.279

<v Speaker 1>nineteen ninety seven. I'm here to thank Heather for being

2932

<v Speaker 1>great producer. Well, darlings, I don't want to say I

2933
02:14:04.680 --> 02:14:08.560
<v Speaker 1>told you so. I want to say Jette laddie, which

2934
02:14:08.600 --> 02:14:11.319
<v Speaker 1>is I told you so in French, at least according

2935
02:14:11.319 --> 02:14:14.720
<v Speaker 1>to this magical typewriter in front of me. Remember, award

2936
02:14:14.800 --> 02:14:18.680
<v Speaker 1>your legends while you have the chance. Hashtag Audre was robbed,

2937
02:14:19.039 --> 02:14:22.319
<v Speaker 1>and keep your coffee decaffeinated.

2938
02:14:22.159 --> 02:14:25.920
<v Speaker 2>For someone who drinks only decaffeinated coffee. She is sprightly,

2939
02:14:26.199 --> 02:14:27.079
<v Speaker 2>yeah that one.

2940
02:14:27.119 --> 02:14:29.920
<v Speaker 1>And she's also dead and dead. Yeah, and dead. You

2941
02:14:30.039 --> 02:14:31.279
<v Speaker 1>keep forgetting dead.

2942
02:14:31.359 --> 02:14:34.159
<v Speaker 2>Shown up here, dead, and she has more energy than

2943
02:14:34.199 --> 02:14:35.000
<v Speaker 2>both of us combined.

2944
02:14:35.119 --> 02:14:38.279
<v Speaker 1>Correct. It is a miracle, a miracle that God himself

2945
02:14:38.279 --> 02:14:39.000
<v Speaker 1>would be proud of.

2946
02:14:39.159 --> 02:14:40.760
<v Speaker 2>Excellent, excellent, Yes.

2947
02:14:40.560 --> 02:14:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Erica, any final thoughts on Save the Last Dance.

2948
02:14:44.920 --> 02:14:47.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm just going to lower my glasses to the bridge

2949
02:14:47.119 --> 02:14:51.720
<v Speaker 2>of my nose and look you up and down and say, Paul, yes, look.

2950
02:14:51.760 --> 02:15:03.800
<v Speaker 2>I can't say this officially, but welcome to podcasting. She

2951
02:15:03.880 --> 02:15:07.000
<v Speaker 2>apparently made so little on Save the Last Dance that

2952
02:15:07.079 --> 02:15:09.439
<v Speaker 2>she had to go back to working as a substitute

2953
02:15:09.439 --> 02:15:13.159
<v Speaker 2>teacher after the film had finished. After the film had

2954
02:15:13.159 --> 02:15:22.720
<v Speaker 2>finished wrapped, we try that again.
