Speaker 1: by Brad Buckner and Eugene Ross Lemming and directed by
Speaker 1: Tim Andrew. Yeah, there we go.
Speaker 2: That's that. That's that stuff aired on four twenty.
Speaker 1: It did air on four to twenty, Yes, and everyone
Speaker 1: got high and realized what a good episode this is.
Speaker 2: And we were only a few weeks away from the
Speaker 2: end of the world.
Speaker 1: Yep, thank god that it ended when it did.
Speaker 2: Yep, No, man, that was what a time to be alive.
Speaker 2: When that was like, ah, silly things, and now it's
Speaker 2: like every day is like, oh no, it could really.
Speaker 1: That's the that's the diary entry for this year. Every
Speaker 1: day is like, oh no, every day.
Speaker 2: Is living like that guy thought made twelve twenty twelve
Speaker 2: was going to be or whatever it was. What are
Speaker 2: the rules of this episode.
Speaker 1: Chrissy, Well, the rules of this episode are as follows.
Speaker 1: Rule number one, smooch City just to keep it going.
Speaker 1: It only happens once, but I just couldn't bear to
Speaker 1: not have smooch City. One of our rules. Got to
Speaker 1: keep it in there. Next if a ghost appears, now
Speaker 1: this is going to be up to your discretion. I'm
Speaker 1: thinking like they appear in that like sketchy, like not
Speaker 1: not just like, oh look there's a ghost, because there's
Speaker 1: a ghost in every scene.
Speaker 2: And everything scene. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's when they sketually appear.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Uh. Take a drink every time someone dies. What's the
Speaker 1: classic rule? Take a drink anytime someone describes being foxhold
Speaker 1: with Annie, talk about swoot City.
Speaker 2: And Abby was reading through the rules and she's like,
Speaker 2: does this say fox Holes? And I was like, my
Speaker 2: pen must have been giving out because there's just a
Speaker 2: bunch of like strokes missing off of it. And I'm like,
Speaker 2: I think so. I was like, I don't know. My
Speaker 2: handwriting sucks. I can't read it. And then yeah, we
Speaker 2: got an episode. We're like, ah, there it is. It
Speaker 2: is foxholes.
Speaker 1: Yep, there it is. Take a drink anytime Bobby says balls,
Speaker 1: take a drink, any time he says his other catchphrase
Speaker 1: it gits in there. Yep, take a drink, Take a
Speaker 1: take a drink for a ghost BM scene when the
Speaker 1: ghosts have boy mellow drama, Take a drink ghost BM scene,
Speaker 1: take a shot or finish your drink or double drink
Speaker 1: or whatever multiplier you like to use when there is
Speaker 1: a swazy reference. And then finally, take a drink whenever
Speaker 1: a ghost gets ganked.
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it, And it was a fun,
Speaker 2: fun little game. I can't wait to go over it.
Speaker 2: At the end. All right, then.
Speaker 1: It's mostly Bobby highlights, reminding us of how much we
Speaker 1: love Bobby and how much he's there for the boys,
Speaker 1: and how much he is a huge part of the show. Then,
Speaker 1: of course Bobby dies. Then we have Garth, who in
Speaker 1: the previous episode is concerned about Bobby haunting the boys.
Speaker 1: We see all of the evidence which we're being shook,
Speaker 1: been being shown constantly of why Bobby is haunting them,
Speaker 1: and we end with the boys being like, we would know.
Speaker 1: We it's just wishful thinking. We would know if it
Speaker 1: was Bobby. We would know. Now the boys are eating
Speaker 1: tacos on the hood, and I love that. Dean is
Speaker 1: like one thing I know for sure, no matter where
Speaker 1: we go, every time we eat at this taco place
Speaker 1: which is called like Taco's MACHOs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's definitely meant to be Taco Bell.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, it was like called like Taco Macho tacomachos.
Speaker 1: He's like, everywhere we go in this wonderful country, the
Speaker 1: tacos always taste the same. And I'm like, Okay, at
Speaker 1: least you take pleasure in that, Dean and don't like
Speaker 1: feel frustrated by it.
Speaker 2: There is there's something to be said about that, though,
Speaker 2: especially for people who travel a lot and travel the
Speaker 2: country a lot, there is something to be said. Is
Speaker 2: there anything like that for you Chrissy that you're like
Speaker 2: if you're out of town, you're in a strange place,
Speaker 2: you're wherever, and you're just like, Okay, I don't want
Speaker 2: to look up where to go. I don't want to
Speaker 2: look like I just need something quick, fast, easy. I know,
Speaker 2: I know if I go to this place, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: I know what I can expect. Is there a place
Speaker 2: like that for you?
Speaker 1: I would say, although it's not ever my first choice,
Speaker 1: you can always count on Chipotle mm hmmmm. And someone
Speaker 1: I travel with frequently are our friend Amy. It's one
Speaker 1: of her favorite places to eat. So when we were
Speaker 1: visiting Chicago together a couple of years ago, we ate
Speaker 1: at Chipotle twice.
Speaker 2: Nice. Yeah, I mean, hey, it's it's solid, It's I
Speaker 2: I will not besmirched Chipotle, im So, I mean, I
Speaker 2: I think there's like a numerous places like that for me,
Speaker 2: but the one, I don't know if I like bringing
Speaker 2: it up necessarily. But like my parents, we drove, we
Speaker 2: did a lot of road trips as kids growing up.
Speaker 2: My parents drove us all around this awesome country up
Speaker 2: into forty seven states.
Speaker 1: Oh nice, and.
Speaker 2: The one like the one place again, like where you
Speaker 2: can take a family of four or five depending on
Speaker 2: when it was on the cheap, And I'm sure it's
Speaker 2: still probably been pretty inexpensive today compared to most restaurants.
Speaker 2: That is going to look the same everywhere you go,
Speaker 2: but it's also going to be like it's always gonna
Speaker 2: have a place to like, you know, for kids to
Speaker 2: do stuff and adults. Like is the cracker barrel?
Speaker 1: Oh, the cracker barrel?
Speaker 2: Sure, cracker barrel? Is you have the store that obviously,
Speaker 2: like you know, we can you can always peruse or
Speaker 2: send the kids to run off in while, you know,
Speaker 2: bow off a little energy, blow off a little steam.
Speaker 2: They got they got the table games as well. But
Speaker 2: like every single one looks the same.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're all exactly the same.
Speaker 2: Sometimes you'll get a reversed I love you ever been
Speaker 2: to a reversed cracker barrel?
Speaker 1: What's a reverse cracker?
Speaker 2: Or the store where the store is on the other
Speaker 2: side where you walk the dining room, you know how,
Speaker 2: Like I mean everyone I can think of most of them,
Speaker 2: especially in Arizona or at least in town here, Like
Speaker 2: you walk in and it's store and then dining room
Speaker 2: on the left. Yeah, no, there are some. I've been
Speaker 2: in this country, there are some that are reversed.
Speaker 1: No, that seems wrong.
Speaker 2: It is the trippiest thing. You're like, No, this is
Speaker 2: not how the dimension if I entered, So I do
Speaker 2: I empathize with the Dean's and and like, there's obviously
Speaker 2: plenty of fast food around the country that is all
Speaker 2: kind of falls into this category too, And obviously that's
Speaker 2: what he's talking about. But I do think there is
Speaker 2: something to be said for having some sort of where
Speaker 2: chain restaurants have their place in our lives.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love local. I try to eat as local
Speaker 2: as I can most every day, you know, Like, but
Speaker 2: like there is a place for chains in our lives,
Speaker 2: and it is when I'm traveling, I know this is
Speaker 2: gonna taste this way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, to expect. Yeah. When I visited our daughter Zoe
Speaker 1: and Traverse City, one of our first stops was to
Speaker 1: go to the Olive Garden.
Speaker 2: Interesting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she was like, Mom, can we go to the
Speaker 1: olive Garden? And I was like, sure, they had a
Speaker 1: cracker barrel too.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think we went there.
Speaker 2: Does she go to the olive Garden here a lot?
Speaker 2: Is that like one of our places to request to go?
Speaker 1: It's one of my mom's places to request to go.
Speaker 2: So there is a little nostalgia there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. Yes, So okay, all right, we're barely
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 2: Sorry, sorry, I just I wanted to I'm glad that
Speaker 2: you pointed that line out, because I really that line
Speaker 2: did hit home with me. I was like, I feel that,
Speaker 2: I feel someone has driven around the country a bunch,
Speaker 2: Like I definitely feel that. Like you know, these always
Speaker 2: taste the same no matter where we go.
Speaker 1: You can count on you.
Speaker 2: Can count on it. So I wanted to highlight it
Speaker 2: and highlight it. We've done.
Speaker 1: Chrissy next, all right, uh Annie calls she heard about
Speaker 1: Bobby and she's like, I have some of his old books.
Speaker 1: Do you want them? And the boys are of course
Speaker 1: like yes, and she's like, great, then let's meet up.
Speaker 1: Let's have lunch tomorrow at some seaside bistro which they
Speaker 1: all seemed to know. At one o'clock. Okay, it's a plan,
Speaker 1: it's a date, it's a scam, it's whatever. The kids.
Speaker 1: Then we cut to two kids making out in an
Speaker 1: abandoned house Smooch City. Take a drink for going to
Speaker 1: Smooth City. Someone pulls up. Is it the cops? Oh?
Speaker 1: We got to hide. But it's not the cops, it's Annie.
Speaker 1: A ghost appears, take a drink because he sketches in
Speaker 1: and he says, you shouldn't have come here, and he
Speaker 1: barrels at them. Annie finds the kid's bodies. Take a
Speaker 1: drink because we have two dead kids, which I thought
Speaker 1: was pretty harsh because they're just young teens.
Speaker 2: Yeah they got him, they got him, Yeah, he got him.
Speaker 1: And then she sees the ghost you shouldn't have come
Speaker 1: here down the hall and we get the title cards
Speaker 1: Splash supernatural. It's our Leviathan season, so it's splashy, splash
Speaker 1: all over the place. At this cute little seaside bistro,
Speaker 1: Sam and Dean are waiting and he Dean says, Dick
Speaker 1: room and is fun another archaeological dig. Oh, Dick Roman
Speaker 1: is up to something, and as always, it's no good.
Speaker 1: I can't remember what he's digging for. Do you remember
Speaker 1: some sort of Leviathan artifact?
Speaker 2: I thought, oh wait, yeah, is it like the demon tablet?
Speaker 2: Is it?
Speaker 1: I don't remember.
Speaker 2: I don't remember. Order well, I know they said that
Speaker 2: he's like setting up all these factories and stuff to
Speaker 2: like process people. But because I was hope they had
Speaker 2: said earlier or is that whenever they say is that
Speaker 2: when they say the episode There some point in this
Speaker 2: episode they say like he's building these factories to process,
Speaker 2: you know, like slaughterhouses essentially.
Speaker 1: M m uh.
Speaker 2: Bobby is the one. He's like, oh yeah, I checked
Speaker 2: it out. Slaughterhouse.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gross.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Annie is late and they're like, it's not like her
Speaker 1: to be late. But I also don't believe the boys
Speaker 1: have ever eaten in this cute little sea side b
Speaker 1: stro with like actual menus. There's no way they have
Speaker 1: their little Hunter's meetings here.
Speaker 2: No, No, maybe they heard about it yelp something.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, uh, Sammy is like, you know, she and
Speaker 1: Bobby had a thing, and Dean's like, wait, she and
Speaker 1: Bobby had a thing. She and I had a thing.
Speaker 1: It was like a Foxhole thing and Dean and Dean
Speaker 1: is like, well, we Hemmingway too, and Sammy's like, well
Speaker 1: I did too, and I didn't have a soul. And
Speaker 1: so they've all had a Foxhol thing with with our Annie.
Speaker 1: So take a drink three times for everyone who had
Speaker 1: a Hemingway Foxhoul situation with Annie. So the boys are like,
Speaker 1: are we being stood up and they're like, let's hope
Speaker 1: that's all this is. Uh, And we get a tight
Speaker 1: shot on Bobby's flask, which Dean still carries around with
Speaker 1: him everywhere.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Now they're trying to find Annie. Uh. Sammy is like
Speaker 1: put that flask away, Dean, and Dean's like, no, not yet,
Speaker 1: I'm not ready yet. So they go check her hotel room.
Speaker 1: And I really wonder like did they ever get their
Speaker 1: security deposits back? Because they had stick tack and like
Speaker 1: yarn and they like just fill the walls with holes.
Speaker 2: Do you think I mean, do you think they're staying
Speaker 2: in places that are gonna notice?
Speaker 1: Well, this place was like a cute little seaside. It
Speaker 1: wasn't like the dark, dank, plaid walls that we usually
Speaker 1: get for them. It was like seashells and it was
Speaker 1: very open and full of light.
Speaker 2: We never use any of their their IDs, and O
Speaker 2: their money's fake too, so like once once it was
Speaker 2: like oh, yeah, we just hack all our money.
Speaker 1: Yeah, then it didn't matter. They'll pay that twenty five
Speaker 1: dollars deposit. They're not going to be using like reusable money.
Speaker 2: Seasons ago, I think they like basically were like Okay,
Speaker 2: we got to stop spending time on how the boys
Speaker 2: afford Dollar's gonna come up with some sort of thing.
Speaker 2: It's like, yep, they haven't limited money and limited money
Speaker 2: and resources.
Speaker 1: Well, they're about to meet her, all right. So they
Speaker 1: go to check her hotel room, and Bobby's in the backseat.
Speaker 1: At her hotel, she was looking into some disappearances and
Speaker 1: the van Ness Home, which is now being listed at
Speaker 1: one of the one hundred most Haunted Places, and Dean's like,
Speaker 1: let me guess all the disappearances started after it was
Speaker 1: put on that list. And they're like, yeah, Bobby is
Speaker 1: sitting there trying to move curtains and such, and what
Speaker 1: I thought was a really lovely scene because Bobby's like,
Speaker 1: will you look in the right place at the right time.
Speaker 1: I just made that curtain shimmy, and the boys are
Speaker 1: just like ignoring him, talking about their own thing. That
Speaker 1: must have been a challenging scene to shoot.
Speaker 2: I I was thinking, like, this is some of Jim
Speaker 2: Beaver's best, right is this episode? I mean, there's so
Speaker 2: many moments in necessarily does it, and he always does
Speaker 2: a really great job and anything he's in, But like
Speaker 2: this right here, I just yeah, this episode. The scenes
Speaker 2: is some of the scenes he's got to do in
Speaker 2: this episode. I really really love.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great Beaver episode. Yeah wow, is put
Speaker 1: this in the Beaver Hall of Fame, And yeah.
Speaker 2: It's a Bobby episode. This is a Bobby episode, all right.
Speaker 1: So the boys go to the van Ness House with
Speaker 1: Bobby and there's ghosts all over the place. He sees
Speaker 1: them all over the place. They're all from different times
Speaker 1: in different eras. They're wearing different clothes, and Bobby sees them,
Speaker 1: but they won't look at him or talk to him.
Speaker 1: The boys walk through the house. The AMF is blaring.
Speaker 1: It's redlining all over the place, and they call Annie
Speaker 1: and they find her phone. It rings and they follow
Speaker 1: the source and they find her phone. Meanwhile, Annie sees
Speaker 1: Bobby and uh oh, he's a door nail, so if
Speaker 1: you can see him, you are too. Annie is bummed
Speaker 1: she never saw a reaper, but Bobby tells her that
Speaker 1: he dodged his and she's like, you shouldn't have done that,
Speaker 1: Like we gotta go on after whatever this is, and
Speaker 1: he's like, well, I just thought it could still help,
Speaker 1: and she's like, is there a fun aspect to all
Speaker 1: of this and I love that question. And she's like, no,
Speaker 1: not as so far that I can't crack the code
Speaker 1: as to how to interact with the boys or move
Speaker 1: stuff or do anything as a ghost. So the boys
Speaker 1: can't have they can't find anything in the house, but
Speaker 1: they find a voicemail on Annie's phone asking for help
Speaker 1: free me, and it's from a number that's all just
Speaker 1: stars like asterixes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so normal. Normal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so super normal, supernatural if you.
Speaker 2: Will, I believe that's what dean. Isn't that what Dean
Speaker 2: says too. When he's like that's that's normal.
Speaker 1: He says, you ever seen a phone number like that?
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, yeah, there's a different thing. Oh it's something else,
Speaker 2: he says in this episode, he's like, oh, yeah, I
Speaker 2: forget what it is.
Speaker 1: It's are kind of weird.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So a dapper man ghost comes in and moves a chair,
Speaker 1: but he's ignoring Bobby and Annie balls says, Bobby take
Speaker 1: a drink.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's when the it's when the camera slides.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he goes, Yep, that's totally normal.
Speaker 2: It's totally normal.
Speaker 1: Uh, And the dapper man goes just like, no, you
Speaker 1: all make the same mistakes, and we learn that he
Speaker 1: is Haskell the Ghost, and Bobby and Annie interrogate him
Speaker 1: as to how to move objects the way that he's doing,
Speaker 1: and he's like, you must calm yourself, and Bobby's like,
Speaker 1: you mean to tell me that in order to move objects,
Speaker 1: I need to get zen, and he makes a swayzy reference,
Speaker 1: So take a shot or w drinks or whatever modifier
Speaker 1: you like to use for the Swayzy reference. And meanwhile,
Speaker 1: a ghost screams and runs at them. So there's like
Speaker 1: a blood curdling scream, and the ghost runs at them
Speaker 1: and poofs away right at the last second, and Haskell says,
Speaker 1: that's what you're going to become. We all deteriorate at
Speaker 1: different rates, but that's what becomes of all of us.
Speaker 1: And they see ghosts in the corner that look like
Speaker 1: Victorian ghosts that have their faces all chewed up and grody,
Speaker 1: and he's like, we all deteriorate at different rates, but
Speaker 1: you can be sure that's what's waiting for ever, every
Speaker 1: single one of us. And it's like, oh, okay, gross,
Speaker 1: we'd never seen such a collection of ghosts in one
Speaker 1: house before, all just rotting away.
Speaker 2: But also like, we don't get to see this guy
Speaker 2: never comes back in this episode.
Speaker 1: No, he never comes back. He's just he's just inn
Speaker 1: exposition machine.
Speaker 2: Don't like it. I don't like it. That guy should
Speaker 2: have come back at some point. It felt unfinished.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what happened to Haskell? Justice for Hastal Good.
Speaker 2: Good Like dramatic scene there and everything with them. You'd
Speaker 2: think that maybe he would have like teamed up or whatever. Nope,
Speaker 2: that was his only scene.
Speaker 1: Yep, that was his only scene and he disappears after that. Uh.
Speaker 1: Sam and Dean can't find anything in this house. They
Speaker 1: look and look and look. They can't find any bodies.
Speaker 1: They can't find any blood, which I find hard to
Speaker 1: believe that the ghosts are like wiping up blood because
Speaker 1: everybody's been bleeding out of their mouth and eyes. Uh.
Speaker 1: And Victoria the ghost comes up to Bobby and Annie
Speaker 1: and says she knows what kind of work they did,
Speaker 1: and Annie's like, I'm still doing it. You got to
Speaker 1: help us, and Sam and Dean leave and zip zap zop.
Speaker 1: Bobby has to go too, because he's attached the flask
Speaker 1: that's in Dean's pocket, all right, So they go to
Speaker 1: a museum to get the history of the house, balls says, Bobby,
Speaker 1: take another drink. They learn that Whitman and the Big
Speaker 1: Guy lived in the house when it was a brothel
Speaker 1: and a lot of people died there. People dying left,
Speaker 1: right and sideways in this house. Um, and the old
Speaker 1: man who's telling them what's up, is like, the house
Speaker 1: is very popular this week. And they're like, what do
Speaker 1: you mean? And they're like, have you seen a redhead
Speaker 1: in our thirties? Did she come asking about it? And
Speaker 1: he's like, yes, and I'll tell you the same thing
Speaker 1: I told her. Stay away. The house is monstrously unsafe.
Speaker 1: But are they gonna listen? No, they're not gonna listen.
Speaker 1: At their hotel, it has a lovely seaside thing. And
Speaker 1: Bobby keeps trying to move change on the counter. He's
Speaker 1: trying to like move a quarter here and there in
Speaker 1: perfect swazy fashion. Uh. Dean is taking a shower as
Speaker 1: the boys talk to each other, and Bobby says into
Speaker 1: the steamy mirror, Okay, I can kill werewolves, fix a pinto,
Speaker 1: and make corn bread. I'll be damned if I can't
Speaker 1: get zen. And I thought that was one of the
Speaker 1: best lines I wrote it down. Meanwhile, back at the house,
Speaker 1: two nerds are making a video of going into the
Speaker 1: VanNess House to find the couple that was killed. They're like,
Speaker 1: our friends came in here and this was the lap
Speaker 1: final stop for their love, but we're gonna find them
Speaker 1: here at the van Ness house. And it's like, why
Speaker 1: are you videotapic it?
Speaker 2: Yeah? That was weird, I I guess, to be able
Speaker 2: to literally just get a video camera into the house,
Speaker 2: like yeah, oh the whole purpose of these guys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but like they're youtubing it or whatever.
Speaker 2: I don't know. It was contrived device.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought so too. So back at the hotel room,
Speaker 1: Dean sees the message in the mirror and he trapped
Speaker 1: in house and he's like, Sammy, tell me you did this,
Speaker 1: and Sammy's like, nope, I didn't do it, and then
Speaker 1: he says who are you And in the mirror he
Speaker 1: writes Bobby. He suddenly got so good at it that
Speaker 1: he's never going to struggle again with having ghost powers.
Speaker 2: Got As he's now back.
Speaker 1: At the house, the door slams on the kids and
Speaker 1: the big guy runs at them, but the dapper mister
Speaker 1: Whitman kills the kids take a drink. They're both dead,
Speaker 1: and then he ghost kills the big guy, so take
Speaker 1: a drink. That's when we learned that Whitman is in
Speaker 1: fact the bad guy, and the big Guy was just
Speaker 1: trying to warn people to stay out of the house.
Speaker 1: Oh no, it's Whitman. He's the big bad for this episode.
Speaker 1: Annie sees the whole thing and she tries to get
Speaker 1: the video camera, and she learns that Whitman killed them all,
Speaker 1: So where are the bodies? And the ghosts are like,
Speaker 1: we don't follow him around, he can kill us all
Speaker 1: at any time. Victoria grabs the camera at Annie's urging,
Speaker 1: and Whitman comes to drag the kids away. Annie stays
Speaker 1: to spy. The boys come back. Bobby steals his flask
Speaker 1: out of Dean's pocket and hides it in a drawer
Speaker 1: so that he can stay at the house with Annie.
Speaker 1: This is the moment where the camera slides out to Dean.
Speaker 1: She just like yoinks it at him or hurls it
Speaker 1: or like eats it at him. Yeah, but she's like
Speaker 1: it's not enough. I need you to go tell him
Speaker 1: what's going on. So Victoria appears to them and they're like,
Speaker 1: it's Annie here, and she's like, yes, Whitman van Neess
Speaker 1: is killing us, but you can free us. And then
Speaker 1: she gets ganked take a drink. She gets ghost killed
Speaker 1: by Whitman van Ness as she's trying to tell the
Speaker 1: story of what's happening to them all, which is like,
Speaker 1: I felt like they played pretty loosey goosey with her character,
Speaker 1: but I liked all the time. So when she was like,
Speaker 1: I lived here, I was a fancy lady, and both
Speaker 1: Annie and Dian are like, you mean a hooker, and
Speaker 1: she's like, no, a fancy lady. And it's like, yeahh
Speaker 1: don't shame her. For God's sake, she was a fancy lady.
Speaker 1: Let her be a fancy lady. She's dead now anyway,
Speaker 1: both in the real world and the ghost world. But
Speaker 1: I find it hard to believe what we learned later
Speaker 1: is that Whitman the Ghost salted and burned her bones
Speaker 1: to get rid of her. I mean, she seems like
Speaker 1: a lot of work for a ghost.
Speaker 2: He's able to put his own cursed object into the
Speaker 2: boys' pocket, like he he's a pretty powerful ghost.
Speaker 1: It seems like he is a pretty powerful ghost. It's true.
Speaker 1: So they're like, Okay, we get it. We gotta go
Speaker 1: and salt and burn Whitman's bones. But Whitman is like mahaha,
Speaker 1: ha ha, and he slips a key into Sammy's pocket
Speaker 1: so that he can ride with them to the graveyard.
Speaker 1: And I think it's hilarious when we get the shot
Speaker 1: of him just sitting in the backseat and he looks
Speaker 1: at Bobby and he's like, bye bye, Nina Niner. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm in the car with the boys.
Speaker 2: T Yeah.
Speaker 1: So Bobby's like complaining that. He's like, oh, man, if
Speaker 1: I hadn't done that trick with the flask, I'd be
Speaker 1: with boys right now. And she's like, well, you can
Speaker 1: either keep pouting, Bobby Singer, or we can take this
Speaker 1: time that he's gone to figure out this nonsense. And
Speaker 1: she's He's like, fine, okay, let's figure it out. So
Speaker 1: they will do it your way. They go to Whitman's
Speaker 1: room and they find a fire burning with Victoria's bones inside,
Speaker 1: and they're like okay. And Bobby really quickly figures out
Speaker 1: to look for a secret passageway from when the place
Speaker 1: was a speakeasy, and he finds it right away, and
Speaker 1: what do you know, we see all of the bodies
Speaker 1: are inside. We did. We saw it in a previous scene.
Speaker 1: All the bodies are inside, including Annie, which this room
Speaker 1: must just be so stinky. How did they not find
Speaker 1: it based on the stink alone? If it has hundreds
Speaker 1: of years? Oh you think ghost can't smell? Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: well how did Sam and Deed not find it?
Speaker 2: I think there's probably a lot of smells in the house,
Speaker 2: and it's probably like I don't know deep, like how
Speaker 2: deep is that room into it? Like, I don't know,
Speaker 2: But yeah, you're right, that's got to be a pretty
Speaker 2: putrid smell coming out of there.
Speaker 1: There's got to be dozens of bodies in there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Yeah, it's probably gross.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So Annie says that they better get to work
Speaker 1: because she wants a hunter's funeral. Uh, And they have
Speaker 1: a little ghost BMC and take a drink. Sam and
Speaker 1: Din aer in the car. When the car starts to accelerate,
Speaker 1: Whitman's ghost appears and tries to drive them off the road.
Speaker 1: They pull over really quickly, find the key in Sam's
Speaker 1: pocket and blast it, sending Whitman back to the house.
Speaker 1: Bobby and Annie are going to use the fire in
Speaker 1: Whitman's rule room to put the souls that are trapped
Speaker 1: here to rest. But Whitman comes back as the boys
Speaker 1: are searching his mausoleum. Bump bump bump bum. Bobby and
Speaker 1: Annie hide from Woitmen and he catches them and he's like,
Speaker 1: did you enjoy the view from my room? And they're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we went in your room. What's the big deal? So
Speaker 1: he starts to zap Bobby in that way where he
Speaker 1: reaches into his chest like we saw him do with
Speaker 1: the Big Guy before. But the boys get the jump
Speaker 1: on him and salt and burn his bones and he's like, no,
Speaker 1: I won't go, but zipity zapp at the zoo. He
Speaker 1: goes and Bobby is still laying on the floor. He
Speaker 1: comes to and Annie's like. He's like, Annie, how long
Speaker 1: was I out? And She's like awhile. So the boys
Speaker 1: come back to the house and Bobby says hi, and
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden they can see him and
Speaker 1: he says, suck on that swayze take a shot, And
Speaker 1: the boys are like finally talking to Bobby and they're like,
Speaker 1: what happened? Did you get stuck? And he's like no,
Speaker 1: I want to just stay. I wanted to help, but
Speaker 1: the boys don't want him to be a ghost. Here's
Speaker 1: a ghost BM scene. They're like, that's not the it's
Speaker 1: not the right way, it's not the natural order of things.
Speaker 1: You need to move on, Bobby. You can't stay behind
Speaker 1: just to help us. What's gonna happen to you, What's
Speaker 1: gonna happen to your consciousness? What's gonna happen to your soul?
Speaker 1: And he's like, well, let's talk about it later. Let's
Speaker 1: lay all these ghosts to rest. Fine. Afterward, Bobby's like,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna miss Annie and the boys are like us too,
Speaker 1: and he's like, you didn't know her like I did,
Speaker 1: and they all sort of roll their eyes. And finally
Speaker 1: Dean's like, what were you thinking? And Bobby's like, we
Speaker 1: still have work to do, and Dean says, but it's
Speaker 1: not right, and Bobby goes, you're right, what was I thinking?
Speaker 1: And in a hissy fit huff, he disappears. Do you
Speaker 1: think that was Bobby? Some of the ghostiness is starting
Speaker 1: to get to him, because that's like way more pissy
Speaker 1: and babyish than I think of Bobby as being.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think so a little bit. I Mean
Speaker 2: he gets a little petty sometimes, so maybe he's also
Speaker 2: but yeah, I think he's just getting to be at
Speaker 2: a grumpy ghost.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So the boys have their own BM scene in
Speaker 1: the car Boy melodrama scene, and they're like, what do
Speaker 1: you think can we make this work? And Dean is like,
Speaker 1: it's not right. Everything is supposed to end. What are
Speaker 1: the odds that this ends well? And that's the end
Speaker 1: of of Grave Importance. Pop up a bun.
Speaker 2: I love this episode.
Speaker 1: I love this episode too. I think it's a really
Speaker 1: good episode. I thought the game was fun and I
Speaker 1: really enjoyed watching it the three times I watched it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd watched this one again. This is an enjoyable episode.
Speaker 2: It's not too scary, not too gross, has but has
Speaker 2: like good fun moment like you know, a little horror
Speaker 2: moments and stuff.
Speaker 1: And we've got great great stars Jamie Luner is, Annie Hawkins,
Speaker 1: Antonio Kopos Whit made van Ness, Alicia Routaro as Victoria Dodd,
Speaker 1: Derek Gilroy is Dexter O'Connell, Craig Erickson as Haskell Crane,
Speaker 1: and they're all great.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, super very memorable episode. I mean you put
Speaker 2: it on and you're like, ah, yes, I know this
Speaker 2: one if you've already seen it, and if you haven't
Speaker 2: seen it, you're gonna love it.
Speaker 1: Yep, walked away. Okay, So how did our rules play out? Yes,
Speaker 1: smooth city, of course happens once. Yep, a ghost appears.
Speaker 1: How many times did you count? And I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: be mad if we have different counts on this, because
Speaker 1: there's it's so open to interpretation.
Speaker 2: Oh good, because Abby's the one who did all the counts. Okay,
Speaker 2: so we watched it together, but she's the only to
Speaker 2: have the notebook and the other accounts.
Speaker 1: Six okay, I got eight.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, we're.
Speaker 1: Not too far off. We're not too far off. Yeah,
Speaker 1: someone dies five times five times is exactly right. Someone
Speaker 1: foxhold with Annie three times. Bobby says balls four times,
Speaker 1: four times, exactly we're nailing it. Bobby says, idgits two times,
Speaker 1: two times. That's exactly right. Uh, there's a ghost BM
Speaker 1: scene three times.
Speaker 2: Yep, that's what I got.
Speaker 1: Two swazee shots yep, and a ghost gets ganked three times?
Speaker 2: We have four?
Speaker 1: Oh really, okay, maybe I missed one. Oh you know what,
Speaker 1: I bet I didn't count Whitman van Ness.
Speaker 2: Yep, Lady by Dexter by Victoria by van Ness.
Speaker 1: Okay I missed VanNess. Good notes, Abby.
Speaker 2: Yeah right, She's some much better keeping notes than me.
Speaker 2: Mine's usually like scribbled in there and then I can't
Speaker 2: read it and I give up. But this was a
Speaker 2: fun game. I liked it a lot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so unseal the mystery. What's coming up next?
Speaker 2: Okay, coming up next? The episode after this that we
Speaker 2: just did is The Girl with the Dungeons and Dragons tattoo.
Speaker 2: Though that episode is amazing and I do love it
Speaker 2: and we will do it someday. I didn't want to
Speaker 2: go right after years and especially like we may do
Speaker 2: like a whole anyway. It's a really culmination of a
Speaker 2: lot of like Lebath and Dick Roman stuff in that episode.
Speaker 2: So but it is a classic. Again, we will do
Speaker 2: it someday. But I am actually skipping not just one
Speaker 2: but a couple up I think two Charlie episodes ahead,
Speaker 2: because we have done LARP in the Real Girl, which
Speaker 2: is the next one we have, yeah Charlie episode, So
Speaker 2: the one right after that, I would say is probably
Speaker 2: one of my might be my favorite Charlie episode honestly,
Speaker 2: Season eight, episode twenty pac man Fever.
Speaker 1: Pac man Fever. Yeah, I love it. I can't wait.
Speaker 2: Uh, someone, here's our rules. This one's like, this one's
Speaker 2: a long all right. Someone asked Sam if he's okay
Speaker 2: or he has like a spell, he's sick. He's like
Speaker 2: looking rough, visibly rough because he's just gone through the
Speaker 2: second trial. Okay, So that's like a longer explanation of
Speaker 2: the rules. It's not like a name to put on that.
Speaker 2: Just like anytime he's like he's looking rough or someone's like,
Speaker 2: are you are you good? This one's gonna be a
Speaker 2: big one. Anytime there are gunshots okay, yep, your double drink,
Speaker 2: finish your drink, take a shot is for montage montage.
Speaker 2: Anytime someone says, dude, yeah, I love it. Yep. Anytime
Speaker 2: someone says I hate that thing and I want one.
Speaker 1: Hate that thing and I want one, Okay, got it.
Speaker 2: Anytime we get some blue eyes okay, anytime people are
Speaker 2: doing some research research, anytime Dean says kiddo.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: And then normally we call them bm scenes, but in
Speaker 2: this episode we're gonna call them BroMans.
Speaker 1: Romans.
Speaker 2: Yes, So anytime we get a bromant, which when you
Speaker 2: watch this episode, you will understand why we call it that. Okay,
Speaker 2: that in this episode at least of our show.
Speaker 1: Okay, perfect.
Speaker 2: So yeah, let's like most of them aren't gonna hit
Speaker 2: a lot. One will hit a ton, and then yeah,
Speaker 2: that'll it's gonna be a fun game. I'm excited. I'm
Speaker 2: excited to talk about it with you. I really really, really,
Speaker 2: really really really love this episode. Yeah, and I'm yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm pumped, pumped.
Speaker 1: Excellent. Well, I can't wait to uh watch it and
Speaker 1: play the game and discuss it with you. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.

Speaker 2: the moment, or at least this part of itself.
Speaker 1: It's physically cooler, and it's emotionally cooler. It's it's so
Speaker 1: hot right now, it's so hot.
Speaker 2: And tomorrow it's supposed to be the worst day, which
Speaker 2: will be in the past by the time people say
Speaker 2: to this, but like it's supposed to be the worst
Speaker 2: day that like when seventeen. Yeah, it's like it's like
Speaker 2: forecasted the worst. Oh, at least it's gonna so there.
Speaker 2: Then and then cloud started rolling in today and I'm like, oh, great,
Speaker 2: so it's gonna be miserable tomorrow and humid. Oh and
Speaker 2: then and then it's supposed to cool down to only
Speaker 2: like one oh five or eight or seven whatever.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but tomorrow it's gonna be one seventeen suck with
Speaker 1: a low of ninety, a low of ninety.
Speaker 2: And that's the thing is like we're getting into though,
Speaker 2: Like so far the summer, it's been kind of still
Speaker 2: cooling down at night and it's been nice, but like
Speaker 2: we're getting into that time when it's not getting cool
Speaker 2: at night and the heat bakes into the concrete. And like,
Speaker 2: if you come to Phoenix in the summer, come in June, y'all.
Speaker 2: If you come middle of July or later, the heat's
Speaker 2: baked into the city and it is. It's physically oppressive
Speaker 2: every day.
Speaker 1: It is. It's hard to be here. Come in October,
Speaker 1: for God's sake, coming Octobber.
Speaker 2: That's one of our slowest months at the theater. Come
Speaker 2: in October. Come to a show in October.
Speaker 1: Because everyone's like, we're free, we can go back out again.
Speaker 2: Everyone goes back outside. But there's not enough snowbirds back yet,
Speaker 2: so like, yeah, the balance isn't right, and it's yeah,
Speaker 2: October is always one of our slowest months. And I'm like, so, yeah,
