That's what it's all about. Oh, I'm gonna turn it to glue. But um, yeah, you should really just like get in line with like the holidays.

SPEAKER_07 2:42

It's just I'm a little more excited.

SPEAKER_11 2:44

They're just so magical.

SPEAKER_07 2:46

Magical's not the word. I'm a little more excited this year since my job is not there's no deadlines involving Christmas time, which is nice.

SPEAKER_11 2:54

Well, there you go. There's no tax deadlines. There you go. It's getting a little bit better every year. Sure. Okay, what's going on? Have you watched anything? Any news updates? You're married? Is your husband still y'all aren't getting a divorce or anything, right?

SPEAKER_07 3:10

It's not on the docket this day.

unknown 3:13

Okay.

SPEAKER_04 3:13

No separations we need to be worried about.

SPEAKER_08 3:16

Excellent. We saw me, you saw Wicked together.

SPEAKER_11 3:19

Oh, we did see Wicked. Wasn't as good as the first one.

SPEAKER_07 3:24

I think it's just I think you just gotta watch, we should have watched the movie right before. It's my emotions.

SPEAKER_11 3:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10 3:30

Because you you just have to you have to continue it. Because it's just it's like it's not like a sequel, it's just like I should have watched it. This is not a se we're just picking up where we left off, and I should have I should have watched it the day the day of.

SPEAKER_11 3:44

And like watching the second one, I just felt like I was just like rolling. It just felt like they were rolling through the storyline. Like this happens, this happens, now this happened, it now this happened, and now it's over. It just I was like, uh I didn't I didn't feel it didn't feel like it just felt like I was I don't know, it just felt like the story was just tumbling on along. Um but Jonathan Bailey is hot as hell.

SPEAKER_07 4:08

I don't get the appeal. Doesn't do it for me.

SPEAKER_11 4:10

Oh my god, he's so stunning. Every year he gets finer and finer and finer and finer. I remember when he was on chewing gum, and I was like, this is a really weird episode, but he is cute. And then he popped out on Bridgetton and they made him ugly. They gave him them crazy looking sideburns and an ascot turtleneck shirt. Which is how they dressed. But then when it was time for his season, ooh, they got rid of them sideburns, they made his shirt 17 times see-through so you can see his abs, and it was just perfect. And I was like, ah, there it is. And then he just kept on getting finer and finer and finer and finer.

SPEAKER_07 4:54

That was so funny. It's not good for me.

SPEAKER_11 4:56

Remember, I told you I slid into his DMs. I'm just hilarious. So waiting on a reply one day.

SPEAKER_07 5:04

That's so funny. Ooh, my fate one of my favorite um characters in the movie, Wicked For Good, was Jeff Goldblink Goldblum.

SPEAKER_11 5:14

He is that same thing? He really killed Jeff Goldblum. Yeah, he really killed it as a wizard. He's just so believed. Excellent class. Like I just I just give someone, he just gives someone who's like, do, do, do, I'm evil, and no, I'm evil, but you know, love me. Listen to my song. But I'm adorable. I'm adorable. He's so good at it. Yeah. And fucking Ariana's boyfriend slash ex-boyfriend, I'm really sure. When he turned to the Tin Man, terrifying. He ate that up. He did. He did a good job. He did. He he did a great, he's a good actor. Like, I think his role, like the role he played, he did really good with it. Yeah. And him, oh, when he turned to a tin man, I was like, he's kind of scary. Yeah, I'm a little terrified. This is a wee bit frightening. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 6:00

And I feel like because we didn't watch part one sooner or like closer together to watching, but good for good, that's why we didn't cry at the closet scene. Because I feel like I would have been rolled in if I would have just watched.

SPEAKER_11 6:11

What closet scene?

SPEAKER_07 6:14

And Ariana's in the closet and she's like holding a wall.

SPEAKER_11 6:16

I cried.

SPEAKER_01 6:17

Don't cry and cry for nothing.

SPEAKER_11 6:19

I cried if she I'm I can't remember what parts I cried. I know I cried for that part.

SPEAKER_01 6:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11 6:24

And then I think I cried when did I cry when she was hugged up with Jonathan Bailey and he was No, I cried when he came into the became the Scarecrow and she was like, You're beautiful. He was like, You don't have to lie. I started crying. I said, oh my god.

SPEAKER_05 6:39

That's so funny.

SPEAKER_11 6:40

I I I got teared teared up when um Gelinda found out Scarecrow Guy died, even though I know he wasn't dead, but just her reaction was just like and then it pulled on my heartstring when she said, I'm limited. I said, bitch, not right now. She said, I'm limited. I was like, don't give up. Wait, when did she even say that?

SPEAKER_10 7:05

When they're singing for good, at one point she's silent.

SPEAKER_01 7:09

I'm limited.

SPEAKER_10 7:11

She's no longer unlimited.

SPEAKER_01 7:12

She says I'm limited or I'm unlimited. I'm limited.

SPEAKER_10 7:15

Because at this point she realized that?

SPEAKER_11 7:17

Alphabet. Because at this point she realizes she is limited. I can't, she's like, I can't help these people. I gotta go. You know what? I really like how long was she fighting this fight? Like two months. I was like, bitch, you haven't even been editing.

SPEAKER_07 7:33

Jade the smear.

SPEAKER_11 7:33

Why are you giving on the smear campaign?

SPEAKER_01 7:36

This was the only one they had. They put hundred that lady was on, was spinning up propaganda, propaganda. She was propaganda.

SPEAKER_11 7:43

She was she was powerful enough to combat it. I just she didn't try hard enough. I was just like, why are you already getting why are you already throwing in the towel? I didn't like that. And I think she just was tired of fighting. She's like, you know what, fuck y'all. She only been fighting for a month and a half. They hated her, Jade. They wanted her dead. When she died. Yes, they did. They said, that's all they said, get her kill her. She didn't even go to court yet. They were trying to kill her bitch. She didn't kill nobody. They hated her guts. She didn't kill nobody. She hurt nobody. No one died. She could have easily. But she was. It only took it would it would have only taken like another month for her to her name be cleared. I think I think if she um would have gotten the wizard's approval, or like he would have brought her out, I think she would have been able to make a comeback, but maybe with Glinda by her side. But I don't think she wanted to try anymore. I think that's a like I don't think she I think if she would have came out with Glinda or the Wizard and she'd be like, hey guys, she's not that bad. I think she would have, but I don't think she would have to be. Well that wasn't gonna happen. But she once Fiero came to her side and then the monkeys, you know, she had the monkeys behind her. I was like, this is this is all you need. I just always think she's doing it. You're not the fine guy. Anybody would believe him because he's so fine, and now you have these flying monkeys, they don't hate you anymore.

SPEAKER_07 8:55

So you can you can think she should fix this. I think she should have just lived in the castle. I'll give you that. I don't think she needed to go to Never Neverland or wherever the hell it was going.

SPEAKER_11 9:02

Yeah, I'm where are y'all about to be wandering to? Y'all wandering into nothingness for the rest of your life. Is this so boring?

SPEAKER_07 9:08

Is this the way to regular earth? Um I was concerned, I was like, where is this going to?

SPEAKER_11 9:13

Right. I'm like, y'all, love isn't gonna last you guys forever. Y'all are gonna be sick of walking and nothingness, okay? Y'all are like in permanent purgatory. But I do hope that one day, I'm assuming that I think the only people who know she was good is the animals.

SPEAKER_07 9:26

And I think five to ten years are gonna tell her story for the truth, and everyone's gonna be like, you know what? She wasn't that bad. She honestly didn't do it.

SPEAKER_11 9:33

I think it'll just be like rumors, like, like like kind of like talk. Like, oh, I kind of like her like back in the day, like she wasn't that bad, and it was the wizard who was really like fucked up on, and it was all propaganda. That's where it on the street, that's what I'd be hearing.

SPEAKER_07 9:45

But then someone's gonna do a journalism, you know, like a full op-ed on it. In an investigation.

SPEAKER_11 9:50

But see, I always wonder, are the people of Oz stupid?

SPEAKER_02 9:55

Yes.

SPEAKER_11 9:56

Cause I feel like but I feel like you know, the animals are smart. I've seen smart animals. But just like are all y'all just like I didn't understand what's the problem with like animals talking and working. Like, why are we so anti this?

SPEAKER_07 10:10

You just they just needed a common enemy. They need someone to blame everything on. Very much how like we do in America right now.

SPEAKER_11 10:17

Oh, this was very much. I was like, someone needs to force Donald Trump to watch this.

SPEAKER_07 10:22

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11 10:23

This is about you, sir. You're the wizard. You're the you're the wizard of all that's here.

SPEAKER_07 10:30

But he's gonna get us some ideas and make it worse or something.

SPEAKER_11 10:32

You're the dummy who actually can't do anything. And you're forcing people out who are innocent. This is about you. And you're blaming everything about it. And the the problem isn't them, it's you. It's the billionaires. You're the problem. Also, what was going on in Oz that was so bad? Like, was taxes like what was the real estate prices up? What are y'all what is they they have to blame the animals for for what? What is y'all's problems? What are y'all blaming the animals for?

SPEAKER_09 11:01

Because they were different.

SPEAKER_10 11:03

But I just don't they were like they had to blame they we had to put the blame on animals.

SPEAKER_07 11:07

But what what is the negative in Oz?

SPEAKER_04 11:10

I don't know. You need a villain. What are you guys struggling with? There must be a villain.

SPEAKER_11 11:14

What else have you seen? Um that's late.

SPEAKER_07 11:19

You said you watched Freckenstein for the first time. How'd you think?

SPEAKER_11 11:22

Oh my god, it was so good. Oh my god. I wish I could unsee it so I could watch it again for the first time. When I was watching it, I was like, I am going to be so sad when this movie ends because it is so good. That's so surprised. I loved it so much. It's like the first 20 minutes, I was like, I'm gonna be devastated when this movie is over because it'll be fucking over. It was so good. It was so good. I loved everything about it. I loved the set design. I loved when he was like in the castle making the monster. I love Jacob Bellorty even when he's dressed up as a monster. Oh my god. I too want a monster boyfriend. It was just so good. I was surprised that you liked it. Oh my goodness, I love it. I enjoyed the book when I read it in high school, and I think it did a decent job of following the storyline. Even though I I don't remember it's been so it was 10 years ago when I read the book in high school, and I haven't read it since. Not an avid reader. Um, but I don't re the whole thing where he like goes into the forest and he's like taking care of like the old man. I remember him going into like the forest, and I kind of remember like I think I remember like the wolf's storyline, but I am almost certain. I don't remember the old blind man. He might be in there, but I am I think he is, but I am almost certain he kills a child. Like that's in the story.

SPEAKER_07 12:52

Let's look it up.

SPEAKER_11 12:52

I'm almost certain he like in the book. Is it book or he didn't do it on purpose, it was like a mistake, but I'm almost certain he kills he kills a child.

SPEAKER_07 13:04

That would make sense.

SPEAKER_08 13:06

It says he does.

SPEAKER_11 13:07

I knew it!

SPEAKER_08 13:09

Why is that not in here? The monster strang strangles Victor's Victor's younger brother of revenge for Victor.

SPEAKER_07 13:17

No, that's not it. Hold on, say put it in the book.

SPEAKER_11 13:19

It was like a little girl or something. I do remember the the child dying by strangulation. So maybe I'm getting him confused with the brother.

SPEAKER_07 13:27

But this one's saying Because in the movie, his When Pin Source Book, his brother shot?

SPEAKER_11 13:33

The No The Monster Force the The Monster like pushes him, the brother. Yeah. And he hits like his head and dies. I'm almost where did I get this from then? It says he kills his younger brother. Yeah. Maybe I thought when I was reading it, maybe I just thought like the younger brother was like Some Random Kid. Little Like a little child. Yeah. Like, no, but I think I might have thought his like brother was a child. Maybe he is a child, or he is a child in the book. Yeah. Cause that that girl's not in the book. That's like not a storyline. Oh, really?

SPEAKER_07 14:08

Yeah, maybe maybe he was a child.

SPEAKER_11 14:13

Because I distinctly remember him strangling a child. I was like, oh, this nigga losing it. Oh like he's he's off his rocker now. Now he's really fully fledged, crazy.

SPEAKER_08 14:22

Maybe they had a much bigger gap in age than the movie.

SPEAKER_11 14:27

Yeah, that must have been it. I think that's what it was. His brother he played he was younger in the book. He wasn't a grown-ass man. So maybe the movie doesn't follow the book as well as I remembered, but it was good. And I loved it.

SPEAKER_10 14:46

Did you get a new mic stand? I noticed that.

SPEAKER_11 14:49

Your father broke the original one, and then so he had to purchase a new one. I don't know. He's touching shit. But it was fantastic. I loved it. It made me, I was like, oh my god, what else can I watch that will resemble this exact movie and make me feel the exact same that this movie made me feel? It was so good. You didn't like it. I did like it. You thought it was slow. I didn't think it was slow. It told a story. It told a fantastic story. I thought you were not liked it. I thought it was pretty though. Yeah, I thought it was great.

SPEAKER_04 15:22

It was like, oh my god.

SPEAKER_08 15:23

I think my favorite story, though, was I didn't I don't think I was as into this Frankenstein's monster. No, Frankenstein's story, but Frankenstein's monster story, I really enjoyed it. Especially when he got to the old the old man. That was really sweet. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_10 15:38

And when the old when the people came back, I was like, he's ha he's already having a bad day, guys.

SPEAKER_11 15:41

Why you guys gotta like I know when the wolves got to the old man?

SPEAKER_10 15:46

I was like, not the wolves.

SPEAKER_11 15:46

I was like, was why was wolves doing shit like that, Frank?

SPEAKER_01 15:49

They were gonna really eat you.

SPEAKER_11 15:51

Right. I was like, well, wolves cutting up like that? I'm like that. Is the sheep?

SPEAKER_01 15:55

I guess they do.

SPEAKER_11 15:57

Right.

SPEAKER_01 15:58

They're like, what y'all like? Why are you trying to come indoors? Jesus. That's why I'm giving that's Katie Gallas.

SPEAKER_11 16:04

Okay, what else have you seen? You know what I wanted to talk about? Oh, and I I keep on forgetting to talk about it. Have you watched, I don't even know what it's called. Kim Kardashian's the new show. Oh awful show, by the way. Terrible.

SPEAKER_02 16:18

You're on what's it called?

SPEAKER_04 16:21

Without a reasonable doubt, I don't know.

SPEAKER_08 16:23

You know what? I watched the first episode. I will say it's not as bad as people make it out to be.

SPEAKER_11 16:30

It's bad. Not game. But it's not, I'm like, there's people who like these vibes of shows. But there's no like, it's so boring. Like, literally, nothing happens. I just all's fair.

SPEAKER_08 16:46

I didn't feel like I didn't I didn't feel like putting much more energy into it, but I did watch the first episode, and I was I was like, oh, I wish I was that bored to finish this because I am curious to see how Tiana's Taylor's character.

SPEAKER_11 16:58

Me and mom hate watch it. She's in like five minutes. She's uh me and mom hate watch it. Well, mom generally watches it. I watch it to hate watch it. Yeah. And it's just so bad. Like her acting is bad. It's not like horrible, but like it is just flat. Like she's giving us nothing. And then like the storyline is also nothing. Like, literally, they're just lawyers and they take on cases, and that is it. You know, just like where is the plot to their I think it's supposed to be like it kind of reminds me of the same um vibe of like the sh like supernatural. Like each episode is a new case, but their problem is all is fair, is that it's too serious, so I don't know. Each episode is like a new case, and then they have like the cases aren't interesting, you know, issues. The cases are not interesting. Um and it's just like the cases aren't interesting, and then we go to the next episode, and it's a new case, and that's also not interesting. So I'm just watching these boring cases, and then their individual individual lives are also boring. It's like one of them is deciding if she wants to get married or not.

SPEAKER_09 18:03

Whoop-ty fucking woo! Like, where's the murder? Where's the sex? Where's the scandal? And where's the tandem? Whoop. Like, where is that?

SPEAKER_11 18:12

She is, but that still wasn't even interesting either. I was like, this isn't. I was like No, of course I would have guessed that the secretary is sleeping with her boss's husband. That's obvious. I'm very disappointed in Ryan Murphy. This is one of his worst work. And it's just like I would have expected so much better from him. No, thank God for Sarah Paulson. She's barely holding a ticket.

SPEAKER_08 18:34

Once I'm I'm more disappointed in the actors that signed up for this, this, this move, this show. Had it been like more like random people, I'd have been like, okay, whatever, fine. But it the caliber of actor that signed up to it, I'm like, especially, especially um Sarah, like, girl, what are you doing?

SPEAKER_11 18:54

Well, she's like, she's, you know, Ryan Murphy's. Well, we have a but he knows it's bad. Muse. I know she's bad. I know for a fact that he knows it's bad. I know he knows this is bad. He has to. I don't think he's an idiot.

SPEAKER_09 19:05

I think he thinks it's just can't be.

SPEAKER_08 19:08

And it's and then you know, maybe in a year, maybe five, ten years, a generation be like, I love it.

SPEAKER_11 19:14

But I don't think I don't I think it's bad, but I I I think there is a uh a a person, the people who watch like BT original shows, they didn't eat the shit out of it. You know what I'm saying? Like, there's people who like this caliber, like this this caliber of show. Um I think they're gonna eat it out. It's not for me. I invested. I keep on watching it thinking it's gonna go. I'm like, oh, when is it gonna get good?

SPEAKER_02 19:44

Like, please.

SPEAKER_11 19:46

It doesn't.

SPEAKER_08 19:46

Those doesn't rarely do those shows do. The only show that I ever watched, and I was like, this fucking sucks.

SPEAKER_11 19:51

And the last episode got me, it was Riverdale. And then I then I I bent to its will, and I said, you know what? This is a terrible. Show and you must hate watching it.

SPEAKER_08 20:01

And ever since then, I I've loved it. And I need to finish it because it was so bad. It was so good. But they're they were good actors. I will say.

SPEAKER_11 20:10

I mean, Riverdale looks like my my gi, but I would watch it.

SPEAKER_05 20:14

Jane is based on teenager drama and their supernatural afflict.

SPEAKER_11 20:19

That is so stupid. And I think I think they try to make pixie sticks. What was the name? They had a drug going around and it'll say something.

SPEAKER_05 20:27

It's like very dust or something.

SPEAKER_11 20:29

But it wasn't like, I don't know. I know it was in like a pixie stick, somebody we call it something. But they have they'll have a serious conversation. And then the drug will be sugar sugar bugs. The sugar bug is out there. We must stop it. I'm like, y'all can't, y'all can't be serious right now.

SPEAKER_04 20:42

The show is so good. Beware of the sugar bugs. Yeah. Get you.

SPEAKER_11 20:47

It was it was good. That first season when I'm trying to figure out who killed that girl twin. Ate that shit up.

SPEAKER_07 20:55

That was shit. I'm not doing I don't even go finish it. I'm not. I know they go back in time at one point to the 1950s.

SPEAKER_11 21:03

And I think they also and I think they also get superpowers. So like I'm just not ready.

SPEAKER_07 21:10

Like it's already a super show. So I'm just not ready for that kind of jump of uh just stupidity.

SPEAKER_11 21:17

But I'm determined to finish it. After maybe after Duke. Yeah, you should. I'm almost done with Buffy. Last season of Buffy, second last season of Angel, and I'm taking a break from Supernatural because it pissed me off.

SPEAKER_08 21:29

But I'm back on it after.

SPEAKER_11 21:30

Finish, finish them all through.

SPEAKER_07 21:33

I think you should watch Buffy. I think you'll really like it.

SPEAKER_04 21:36

Maybe. Maybe.

SPEAKER_07 21:37

It's really good.

SPEAKER_04 21:38

I'm thinking about watching Charmed again.

SPEAKER_07 21:41

I think that will be something I watch maybe after this.

SPEAKER_04 21:45

But uh, it's just like I already know. Like every episode they just fight a mythical creature, and then at the end they go into hiding.

SPEAKER_11 21:52

See this. But see, I like those kind of episodes. I like those kind of shows where it's just like there's a there's a part in the background and we follow that slightly, but the but each episode is like, we're following this thing, we're fighting this thing. I like those.

unknown 22:04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11 22:05

Like my only issue with it's very 19 yeah. My only issue in this part's in Buffy and Angel where they get to like the thing that they keep, like the I'm just like, can we just keep this light? Can we just solve a mystery or something each episode? Like, I don't want to get into like I love you and you love me. My mom died, and Tara's dead, and it's just too much. I don't want all that.

SPEAKER_00 22:28

Too much.

SPEAKER_05 22:30

Well, is all I have?

SPEAKER_07 22:32

Maybe. Let's think. Speaking of I want to see Zootopia this weekend. That's the last thing I wanted to say.

SPEAKER_08 22:39

Okay, well, that doesn't work with my segue.

SPEAKER_09 22:42

Speaking of it does.

SPEAKER_11 22:45

It doesn't.

SPEAKER_07 22:45

She's a bunny. Speaking of anything, she's an animal in the movie in the city that we're in has tons of them. Animals, rats, that is.

SPEAKER_11 22:54

Oh, I don't know. The movie was set in New York. Speaking of movies set in New York and sorry, it's not set in New York. But it's it's a zootopia. Stop talking.

SPEAKER_07 23:06

You're you're not setting me out to win here. This is the New York of animal world.

SPEAKER_11 23:12

Speaking of 1990s and keeping it light, because you said that earlier.

SPEAKER_04 23:19

There you go. Gotcha.

SPEAKER_11 23:21

Speaking of 1990s, I want you to shut the hell up because you were getting all the track. Okay, thank you. Go ahead. Do your little show. Speaking of 1990s. Is he a showgirl? Is he a showgirl? Speaking of 1990s and keeping things light, think 1992. Think New York Titty. The big apple. Think Christmas time. Think holiday cheer and holiday fun. Think families. Think family dynamics. Think this is a big ass family, and there's a lot of kids running around. Think everyone's ganging up on the cute, adorable, innocent youngest kid of the bunch, and it's not fair and it's not right. Think negligent mothers who should probably have their kids taken away. Think holiday gone wrong. Think airport traffic.

SPEAKER_09 24:20

Think airport issues and airport mishaps. Think for getting your kid on your holiday vacation.

SPEAKER_11 24:28

Think two dumb robbers. And that brings us to Joe, please. Home alone. Home alone two. Lost Lost in New York.

SPEAKER_01 24:44

One bag. No. Two bucks, one bag, one me. No, excuse me. NYC. Just got here this morning. Three bucks, two bags, one me.

SPEAKER_10 24:58

I feel like watching Annie.

SPEAKER_01 25:00

Annie Christmas movie.

SPEAKER_11 25:01

Good old Orphan Annie.

SPEAKER_03 25:05

Stony.

SPEAKER_11 25:07

Okay. After Little Youth, Kevin McAllister loses track of his father. After it said snarky. It said snarky, so I said little youth. I didn't I didn't like snarky. So I just changed it. Okay, sorry. I didn't write a summary, so I just had to Google one quickly. I forgot to do that. After little youth, Kevin McAllister, played by um Macaulay Calkin, loses track of his father at the airport, he mistakenly gets on a plane headed for New York City. While the rest of the McAllisters fly to Miami, Florida. Now alone in the Big Apple, Kevin cons his way into a room at the Plaza Hotel and begins his usual antics. But when Kevin discovers that the sticky bandits, Marv and Harry, are on the loose, he struggles to stop them from robbing an elderly man's toy store before Christmas. The film is an American Christmas family comedy sequel. Directed by the original duo from Home Alone One, Chris Columbus, and written and produced by the one, the only John Hughes. We love John. He's giving us so much. He's giving us so much. Principal photography took place from December 9th, 1991, to May 1st, 1992, over a course of 144 days. The film, so you know, a lot of my information that we gathered was all based in the first one. So, you know, I just kinda I had to work with what we had for the second one, which wasn't much. The film was shot in Winteca, Illinois, O'Hare International Airport in Chicago, Evanston, Illinois, Chicago, the Rockefeller Center, the Plaza Hotel, and the original World Trade Center in New York City. I don't know about the Trade Center. I don't know that that was accurate, but I was like, I'll go with it. Um, John Hughes finished writing the film by February 1991 after signing a six-picture deal with 20th Century Fox. And this was part of the deal, obviously. Macaulay Culkin was confirmed to return in May, and the rest of the cast was finalized soon after. Only one member of the McCall. Uh get his first name and his fictional last name confused. Only one member of the McAllister clan, Kevin's older sister, Leany, was played by a different actor. What? I didn't know that.

unknown 27:53

Right.

SPEAKER_11 27:57

Right. Right. Macaulay Culkin was paid$4.5 million for his role, plus 5% of the film's gross to appear in the sequel. Compared to the 110,000 for the original. Quite the increase he got there.

SPEAKER_02 28:15

Hell yeah. Um that sure is.

SPEAKER_11 28:18

As we know, the film is set in the Plaza Hotel. And at the time, Captain Orange owned the hotel back in those days. And in 2021. 2021?

SPEAKER_00 28:32

2021?

SPEAKER_11 28:33

2021? Whatever. Following the January 6th Capitol Insurrection, a petition circulated to target, um, circulated, excuse me, to get Trump's cameo removed. Some fans even began to edit him out or replace him with other celebrities. That's awesome. Culkin seemed to approve of the edits. When a fan tweeted a version without Trump, Culkin replied, Bravo. And when another He's not on Disney yet, right? He is in there.

SPEAKER_02 29:04

So didn't last long.

SPEAKER_11 29:06

And when another said Trump should be replaced by Culkin's adult self, the actor said, sold. Because I remember them saying that, and I remember him being taken out. Like I remember him being taken out.

SPEAKER_01 29:18

I don't I'll be typing sometimes.

SPEAKER_11 29:20

I remember him being taken out. I guess that don't last that didn't last long at all.

SPEAKER_07 29:24

I just don't remember I might have been looking down, but I don't remember seeing him. I just rewatched it the other day.

SPEAKER_00 29:29

No, he's he's in that bitch, because I remember like We watched it on Disney Plus. Fucking slime ball. I watched it on Disney Plus.

SPEAKER_07 29:37

Also, I think he's on the World Trade, um, the World Trade Center when he's you know at the top of the building, he's looking over New York City. I think that was on him on the trade building.

SPEAKER_11 29:47

Oh, okay. Maybe so. Maybe so. Um The film was just distributed by 20th Century Fox and was released November 20th, 2022. Budget. Budget!

SPEAKER_10 30:05

Released in 2022.

SPEAKER_11 30:08

Oh, I'm sorry. Silly me. The film was distributed by 20th Century Fox and it was released November 20th, 1992. Why the fuck did I put 2022?

SPEAKER_07 30:24

Yeah. Concerned. I was like, wait, what am I listening to? Budget. 50 or 50. No. 50. No, excuse me. Jesus.

SPEAKER_06 30:37

Come into a number and say with your chest. Be confident in Jesus.

SPEAKER_07 30:42

Uh budget.

SPEAKER_05 30:44

Is your husband squirming around back there?

SPEAKER_07 30:47

He is.

SPEAKER_00 30:48

He's making a lot of noise. Don't know why you can hear that.

SPEAKER_07 30:51

Um, 100k. No. 1 million. 100k? I'm sorry, I'm confused about the fact he got paid 4.1 million. Because I want to say 30 million, but he only got paid.

SPEAKER_05 31:00

4.5.

unknown 31:03

4.5 million.

SPEAKER_07 31:04

I want to say like 20 million. For the budget? Yeah. The too high? Okay. 30.

SPEAKER_00 31:12

28 million dollars.

SPEAKER_07 31:14

I'm gonna say 30, but for whatever reason, the fact that he only got paid 4.5 million was throwing me off.

SPEAKER_00 31:19

Only? Bitch, that's like$15 million for it. Just like I'm the star.

SPEAKER_11 31:26

I am that's a lot of money for a child to receive.

SPEAKER_00 31:30

Jennifer Lawrence only got paid like$1 million for the first hundred games, so that's a number of that I recall in comparison.

SPEAKER_02 31:39

So I saw this$100 million. No.$150. No,$180. No.$200? I don't do how? No. 300 million? Keep going. Keep going. What'd you say? 300?

SPEAKER_11 31:55

Keep going.

SPEAKER_02 31:57

400 million.

SPEAKER_11 31:59

359 million dollars. No, that's good enough. Good enough.

SPEAKER_09 32:11

See, you've gotta pay the other actors.

SPEAKER_11 32:13

You've gotta pay the producer. Right.

SPEAKER_09 32:17

The people who bring out the crafts table.

SPEAKER_11 32:20

But there's one. Everyone's gotta get a paycheck here, not just him. Right, but this$350 on the prop or whatever the profit is, waiting. Um, and who get probably one man. Probably get all that money or in the studio. He'd probably pay people fairly. Percentage-wise, the movie received mixed reviews from critics who praised performances while criticizing its darker tone and violence, as well as its similarities to the first. It is a bit violent. I didn't think so. I don't know. I don't when they brought the gun into it, I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Was there a gun that last one? I did Well, yeah, I I do remember thinking, like, is he like relatively killing a child? No, that's what I was. I feel like this one, he was really gonna kill him.

SPEAKER_04 33:06

Like, I don't think he was playing with it.

SPEAKER_11 33:08

I was like, y'all need to Yeah, I did think they needed to lay off of like the we're gonna kill him. Yeah. It's like all right. And I feel like if they would have said in the last one, I'd be like, he's joking, but I think if he would have got his hand on him, they would have actually put him in the lake. Like, I don't think he was joking. I mean, yeah, he yeah, they should have laid off with the king. Yeah, and because at first it's like, is he is is he just trying to scare the kid? And he's like, I got a gun. I was like, well. And they were trying to take him to the park. I'm like, what you gonna do with the kid in the park?

SPEAKER_05 33:35

What do you mean? Oh, leave him alone.

SPEAKER_11 33:37

They're like actively trying, they were active because in home alone they're trying to rob the place and he just happens to be there. But this one, they're actively trying to get him alone to hurt him. Because it's like Well, he was they he was still fucking up their shit.

SPEAKER_07 33:49

Right, but but I mean when they first found him, oh yeah, they basically They were like, I got a gun. He was gonna take me to the people shooter. It's a little darker.

SPEAKER_11 33:59

SPEAKER_00 36:02

He's getting ready to take it all over. Like, oh my brother. He's prepping. Getting his mind right.

SPEAKER_11 36:10

Get his mind right.

SPEAKER_08 36:11

For sure.

SPEAKER_11 36:12

Okay. The movie begins, similar to the last one, how the last one begun. When the McAllister family prepared in the McAllister home, getting ready for Christmas time. Once again, they're not spending Christmas in their beautiful home in the city of Chicago, which is perfect for Christmas. They're going out the country. No, sorry. They're going out of town. But this time, instead of going to Paris, they're going to Florida, which is stupid. Kevin is so on to something. Kevin's the only one that's like, why the fuck are we going to be?

SPEAKER_10 36:42

Why is his family so hell bent on going out of country for Christmas?

SPEAKER_11 36:46

Vacation, right. Have y'all never heard of summer vacation?

unknown 36:51

Right.

SPEAKER_08 36:52

And then Florida.

SPEAKER_11 36:53

That's the time to do it. Why are y'all always well? Because last year's previous phone.

SPEAKER_07 36:58

I'm not.

SPEAKER_11 36:59

Yeah, it was like, okay, we're going to Paris. And then their brother lives in Paris.

SPEAKER_01 37:02

So they're so it made sense.

SPEAKER_11 37:06

But like this time, we're just going to Florida to get away from the cold. Like, no.

SPEAKER_01 37:10

No.

SPEAKER_11 37:11

Florida sucks. Yeah. Okay. Also, who's not happy with this idea is Kevin. He uh verbally uh announces this to his mother and he's like, uh uh. Why are we going to Florida? It's not a few. What if we didn't have Christmas trees? It has palm trees. He's like, what is it with you and Christmas trees, Kevin? Right. They're already irritating each other. They're already irritating each other. Actually, I think she's being noticeably nicer to him in the trees in the clue. Okay. She is being nicer to him. She's like, Kevin, did you pack your stuff? And he's like, why do we have to go to Florida? She's like, Because go pack your stuff. Well, she's being nicer to him. Sometimes she's like, get ready for your recital. Maybe. Because maybe at first off I was like, he has to be. His mom probably hates him the most. But maybe she loves him the most.

SPEAKER_07 37:58

I don't know.

SPEAKER_11 38:00

I don't, I she doesn't seem to like him though. I'll say that much. I think she loves him, but I don't I don't think she likes him that that much. I feel like I never get like a super like nurturing, super close. I love like I love him. He's my pride and joy. I don't really get that from him either. Like, oh, I love my mommy. She's the best mommy. I don't get that from either of them.

SPEAKER_07 38:23

Until the end. I don't know.

SPEAKER_11 38:24

I think they only like each other when they can't find each other.

SPEAKER_05 38:26

Like that's the only thing.

SPEAKER_07 38:27

I think they have an understanding.

SPEAKER_11 38:29

I feel like they get each other.

SPEAKER_07 38:30

They're like brother and sister. Almost. I don't know.

SPEAKER_05 38:33

Right, right.

SPEAKER_11 38:34

That's that's really what their relationship is more like. As if she's his older sister and he works on her fucking nerves. And he he's not holding anything back. He's giving us a chance. One day he wakes up missing and she realizes how much she loves him.

SPEAKER_07 38:46

It's brother and sister vibes. That's what it is.

SPEAKER_11 38:48

Yeah. So while so while Kevin and his mom are arguing about their Christmas location, Kevin's dad walks in. I don't remember his name. Um, he's fooling around with Peter. He's fooling around with his camcorder. He's trying to get the batteries forward. But for some reason, he unplugs the alarm to get to get batteries forward. I was confused by that.

SPEAKER_00 39:07

I didn't understand.

SPEAKER_11 39:08

But he unplugs the alarm, plugs it back in.

SPEAKER_08 39:11

But he doesn't realize that he he has restarted the alarm clock. It either turns it off so he has to restart it, or it cleared out their alarm clock. Either or the alarm clock will not be helping them in the morning.

SPEAKER_11 39:22

Um Kevin's also playing with this, like, I don't know. I don't know what those things are called. Like a camcorder? Yeah. But it like doesn't, it's not a camcorder. Oh. Oh, um cassette tape?

SPEAKER_07 39:36

No. No. Microphone.

SPEAKER_11 39:40

It like records people's devices.

SPEAKER_08 39:45

Camcorder, no. Cassette tape, no. Tape recorder. That's what's called tape recorder.

SPEAKER_11 39:52

He's got this old tape recorder that he's playing with. Um, yes. I guess it's his Christmas present. So after all of this is Um, aired out. Kevin goes to take a shower. He goes into the shower. His cheapskate uncle. What is that guy's name?

SPEAKER_07 40:09

Don't you worry about Uncle Peter, Uncle Babe, Uncle Uncle.

SPEAKER_11 40:13

Uncle. Oh, that guy sucks. Frank, Uncle Frank. The cheapest cheapskate in all the land is in the shower, taking a shower. He's like singing the song. He's like, I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 40:27

He's like really jingle.

SPEAKER_08 40:28

I know that guy's gonna hide him.

SPEAKER_00 40:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11 40:31

And Kevin uses the cam recorder to record him before Uncle Frank scurries him off and tells him to get out or he's gonna whoop his ass. So then, that night, however, the whole family, McAllister family, is there. Frank's got his kids as well. They're gonna leave for Miami the next day. But tonight, they have a school recital that Kevin is in. Kevin's older brother, Buzz, is also in said recital. Why? I don't know.

SPEAKER_07 41:00

No, no, it makes no sense.

SPEAKER_11 41:02

Buzz is in high school, Kevin's in the fifth grade. Well, whatever. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 41:06

The only thing you can think of is maybe this is a church choir, and age doesn't matter. That's the only thing I can think of.

SPEAKER_11 41:12

Maybe so. So, um, family, parents, Peter, Kate, Uncle Frank, Uncle Frank's wife, they're all in they're all in the audience, and it's it's time for Kevin's solo. His solo's coming up. Buzz his big brother's standing right beside him. Behind behind him. Just as he's about to, you know, start his little solo, all of the members of the choir are holding these fake candlesticks. They're not real fire, but it's like these fake candlesticks are all holding it. So now it's time for Kevin's solo. He has an angelic voice of a 10-year-old sweet innocent boy, and he begins singing, he sounds like a precious angel sent from above. But Buzz, being the dick that he is, he takes the two candlesticks that he has and he like puts it against Kevin's ear, and like everything thinks it's so hilarious, and then he starts using them as drumsticks on Kevin's head. So funny while he's singing, and everyone in the audience thinks this is so funny. And Kevin is like, why is everyone laughing at me while I'm having my solo? He turns around, he sees what Buzz is doing, and of course he reacts and he punches his brother, causing a ripple effect because his brother is a drama king and he falls to the ground, which causes the person next to him to fall, and then before you know it, the whole choir somehow falls down because Kevin punched the everyone is unbalanced, apparently.

SPEAKER_09 42:36

And then somehow the pianoist also fell on her back. She's 20 feet away, but somehow she fell too.

SPEAKER_01 42:42

Concert. They stick evening apparently ruined.

SPEAKER_11 42:47

So back at the house, now it's time to unpack all of this. You know, Buzz is in front of his family, and he's giving this very BS speech, and he's like, you know what, guys, it's holiday season, it's the holiday spirit. I'm so sorry. To to you guys for ruining the concert, to my little brother Kevin. And everyone's like, oh my god, Buzz, what an amazing apology. Thank you so much for apologizing. Kevin says, Kate, Kevin's mother, do you have anything you'd like to say? No. And right before Kevin can even like say anything, Buzz goes up to him and he's like, beat that little twerp. And Kevin's like, you know what? Kevin's like, you know what? Fuck this. You know what? Buzz does not mean what he just said. And I don't regret punching him. And I hate being part of this family because y'all believe everything he says. And Kate's like, Kevin, if you have that attitude, you can sleep upstairs tonight in the basement or the attic, whatever. And he's like, that's perfectly fine. I don't want to spend any time with you people. You guys suck. And then Uncle Frank chimes in, and Kevin calls him a cheapskate because he is one. And now he's really banished to the attic.

SPEAKER_09 44:04

And so Mommy Dearest goes upstairs, she checks on Kevin, and she's like, you know what, Kevin?

SPEAKER_11 44:10

This behavior is exactly similar to the behavior that you had last year, and look how that ended up work. And he's like, Okay, yeah, it started with all of y'all shitting on me. And she's like, that's not what's happening here. Buzz apologized to you and to the rest of the family. And if you can't do the same, you will spend the night up here. And he's like, that is fine. I do not fuck with y'all.

SPEAKER_09 44:33

And she's like, you know what? Kevin, you got your wish you last year. If you keep it up, you might get your wish again this year. And he's like, Good.

SPEAKER_11 44:43

I don't want to be with you guys.

SPEAKER_04 44:44

And I surely don't want to go downstairs.

SPEAKER_11 44:45

And she's like, she's like, okay, fine. Why can't you have a good night? Why can't Kevin ever stay in his room? Why he must have to say?

SPEAKER_05 44:53

Right. Why he must always go to either the basement or that's his punishment. You don't have to go in the attic.

SPEAKER_11 45:00

What am I, the hunchback in Notre Dame?

SPEAKER_08 45:02

Leave me alone.

SPEAKER_11 45:03

Right. What is this? Flowers in the attic? Get me out of here. I don't know that one. So, um, the next day, it's time to go to the airport. Like Jordan mentioned, Peter fucked up with the alarm clock. So they wake up late, already off to a bad start. Their flight probably leaves in the next like 50 minutes. They got limited time to rile up a house full of 14 people, get in their vans, check in, go through security, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So everybody's ripping and running.

SPEAKER_07 45:34

I don't understand why they're always okay. I get the alarm went off. But it only takes me like 10 minutes to get my shit together. When you know, bags are packed. I'm just waking up, brush my teeth.

SPEAKER_11 45:43

When you got 17 people.

SPEAKER_07 45:44

No, no, they're not. Only one of them. Only two of them are like small children.

SPEAKER_11 45:48

Don't brush your teeth. Let's go. The bus is outside.

SPEAKER_07 45:51

Your bags should be packed. Throw some clothes on and let's walk out the door. I don't understand what they be doing.

SPEAKER_11 45:56

Stay air cool. It's hard when you got I I understand. It's hard when you're hard.

SPEAKER_07 46:00

But everyone needs to be out this fucking door.

SPEAKER_11 46:03

That's an impossible feat.

SPEAKER_08 46:06

It was hard when we were five and we were children, but that's because it made it work.

SPEAKER_11 46:11

I don't remember being like, that just gave me anxiety, but think about how negligent Kevin's family is. So right. So of course they can't get it together. And also I didn't, I did not like how Uncle Frank Frank was blaming the dad.

SPEAKER_05 46:36

Shut the fuck up.

SPEAKER_11 46:37

But my thing is, there's a there's 18 people in this house. No one has a morning alarm clock. No one like is stressed about. Like we're all we're off. We all need one alarm clock to get up, and that's my alarm clock. It's absolutely not. Right. Absolutely not. Absolutely not. There's just there's just no way that 15 or having people in this house like 15, but there's probably eight of them all over sleep. It's just like, what are you contributing to? What are you contributing? Besides the negativity and whining.

SPEAKER_04 47:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11 47:02

So when they get into their individual like van to the airport, Kate seriously, someone reproduced with him. Kate into this, like, where's Kevin? Kevin's like, I'm here. They're like, oh, thank God. He grabs his ticket, they're in the van, they make their way to the airport. They get to the airport, they start checking in their luggage. For whatever reason, Kevin is messing around with that camcorder. Kevin, for whatever reason, really wants to have batteries in his camcorder. He didn't get them last night. And once he gets to the airport, everyone's freaking out. And he's like, Dad, where are these batteries? He's like, I need batteries. I need batteries. And he's like, Kevin, how are we literally gonna miss our flight? He's going through his call out. He's going through his dad's bag looking for the batteries. He finds his dad's cash. And at this point, he's like, you know what? I'm gonna hang on to the bag. And his dad's like, okay, you hang on to the bag. Whatever, Kevin, let's go. So they start running. And then so they're ripping and running through O'Hare, Chicago O'Hare, whatever it's called. Catherine O'Hare Airport.

SPEAKER_00 47:59

They're ripping and running through there. Kevin is insistent on putting these batteries in his camcorder.

SPEAKER_11 48:05

So in the middle of them mid-run, mid-haul ass to their gate, which is at the all the way at the end, their gate's like the last gate in the airport. In the middle of them hauling ass, he decides to stop so he can put batteries into the damn camcorder. So he does that. He thinks he can still see his father and his eyes view. He don't realize his father is all the way down the hall, and who he thinks is his father is just a strange man that he doesn't know. And so he's trying to keep an eye on his dad while putting in the batteries. And once he's done, he starts following what he thinks is his father, but is really just a man dressed up similar, like his actual father.

SPEAKER_09 48:47

So the McAllisters, they hang right. Kevin is following the wrong guy, and they hang and Kevin hangs left.

SPEAKER_11 48:55

So the McAllisters get to their gate, they're the last ones there. Kate is trying to make sure everyone gets on the plane, but the stewardess is like, ma'am, you've got to get on the plane. We'll make sure everyone gets on. She's like, Okay, fine. Stay all but Kevin get on the plane.

SPEAKER_09 49:11

So then Kevin is following this guy who he thinks is his dad. He gets on to the flight, and the stewardess closes the doors.

SPEAKER_11 49:21

Close the doors. Close the doors. Anywho, so the stewardess closed the doors. Kevin's like, wait, wait, wait, wait. And he bumps into the lady. His ticket, amongst with all the other passengers, their tickets fall to the floor. And the lady's like, are you on this flight? And he's like, Yeah, I had my ticket. It's right in this pile of other tickets. And she's like, Okay, are you flying by yourself? She's like, No, my dad. He's like, No, my dad just went on there. And another gentleman comes out and he's like, Who's this? And she's like, he lost his ticket. His dad just went on the plane. The guy's like, Okay, get him on the plane, get the kid to have a seat, make sure he locates his family so we can take off. The stewardess brings Kevin onto the plane. She's like, Do you see your dad? He sees the man who he thinks is his dad. And he's like, Yeah, he's over there. She's like, Okay, find your seat. And then, cool. Good luck, have fun. That's the end of that. He gets in the seat, he sits next to this random French man. He asks him, Hey, have you ever been to Miami before? The French man responds in French. Kevin says, I don't want to talk to you because you speak French and I only speak English. He puts on his headphones.

SPEAKER_07 50:29

It's also funny that, like, you know, last movie they went to Paris.

SPEAKER_11 50:33

Oh.

SPEAKER_08 50:34

I guess.

SPEAKER_11 50:36

I guess. So Kevin puts on his headphones and he is unable to hear the announcement on the intercom that says, Welcome to flight 387 non-stop to New York City. Kevin's supposed to be going to Miami. He's on the wrong flight. He's on the wrong flight. He's headed to the Big Apple, NYC. Kevin probably takes a nap. But then the McAllisters came, is like, oh my goodness, something feels off. Something feels wrong. And Peter's like, we didn't forget anything this time. Like, everything's good. She's like, I just had this like weird feeling. He's like, everything is okay. Mother's intuition, I guess. And she's like, okay, fine, you're right.

SPEAKER_07 51:14

And then he says a whole bunch of stuff and he's like, oh yeah, we let myself the garage open.

SPEAKER_11 51:18

I think that was in the first one.

SPEAKER_10 51:20

I don't know. Well, whatever he breasts her mind because she doesn't realize he's not on that plane. I you would think that if you lost your child, same situation last year, you're just like, let me just make sure he's on this plane.

SPEAKER_09 51:29

Right.

SPEAKER_11 51:29

Why wasn't she like, well, let me just make sure Kevin looked at me. Let me see him. Let me live in his seat. Put my eyes on this man. Also, another thing is that the parents in a first class that kids sit in the back class, which I don't think when you have little kids, you should do. But I guess they have older kids with them. I don't know. I just feel like you gotta watch everybody get to their seat.

SPEAKER_08 51:43

Anywho.

SPEAKER_02 51:44

Right.

SPEAKER_11 51:45

So Kevin's plane makes it to New York City. Also, I just want to point out. If Kevin doesn't have a ticket, maybe it's not like a sold-out flight, but if he doesn't have a ticket to this New York City flight, like he shouldn't have a seat. Right. And like they, I don't know if they did this in 90%. Assigned seating, right? But you know, they they check seats. Like, oh, like the the flight attendants check to see if the person who's in that seat is in their seat. Mm-hmm. Assigned, like assigned seatings, and that's it. Right. Someone would be like, Well, why is this kid in my seat? They'd be like, well, Kid, where are you going to sit? Like, I don't know. Right, because when they when the flight attends see that someone's sitting in a seat that's supposed to be empty, they'd be like, Why are you here?

SPEAKER_07 52:27

Right.

SPEAKER_11 52:28

Right, why are you in a seat? Sorry. Right. One is to sit next to my friend, one in an aisle. Sorry. So why why didn't that happen? But nonetheless. You ain't lying. True. And it also, where back that time, they really had like paper tickets. Like if your ticket was gold, honey. Like you really needed it. It wasn't wasn't really looking up in the system.

SPEAKER_08 52:47

Because now if like I don't have my boarded plastic, they'd be like, oh, maybe look you up in the system. Are you so-and-so?

SPEAKER_07 52:52

They would just be like, I guess you found this flight.

SPEAKER_11 52:55

I guess so. Which is a crazy way.

SPEAKER_07 52:57

They should have just gone through the paper files. I'd have been like. Especially the child.

SPEAKER_11 53:01

Right. They really should have. So Kevin's flight gets off of the plane to New York City. He walks out and he looks a little, a little concerned. He turns his back and he watches all of the. He's like, Buzz Mom. Yes, he's watching as all the passengers exit the plane. And some lady comes out, she's like, Yep, I'm the last one off the plane. Everyone's deported. And he's like, Well, what the fuck? He takes a peek outside.

SPEAKER_08 53:23

He goes to he goes to like a um a flight attendant that's working behind the desk. And she goes, for whatever reason, which really pissed me off, she goes, Yes, sir, sir, he's a child.

SPEAKER_11 53:33

Um he explained, Is this New York City? He's like, Yes, sir. Okay? And he's like, Okay, she's like, is everything fine? Why would you why would you let this kid just walk by himself? If this kid's like, am I in New York City? She's like, Yeah, you idiot. It's a child. What then she had an attitude where he was like, What city is this? He's like, Are you Are you dumb? Like, why don't you know where you are? It's tense. Do you realize you know the difference between a 10-year-old and an adult? Is that worried about how the desk? Because I'm the first. Do you know that 10-year-old numbers? Well, she doesn't. And she's not concerned for his safety. But after hearing this, you know, Kevin takes a deep a brief moment and he's ecstatic. He's like, I actually love that I'm in New York. Love this for me. Meanwhile, in Miami, Kevin's family has gotten off the plane. Their baggage clean, they're collecting the bags. Um, Kevin's mom picks up the bag and he's like, hey, this one's for Kevin, keep asked to Kevin.

SPEAKER_08 54:26

They do like a line of, um, give this to Kevin. This is for Kevin. This is for Kevin, this is for Kevin, this is Kevin. And then someone goes, one of the uh uh Kevin's youngest brother looks at an old people, like an old couple.

SPEAKER_01 54:37

Cousin.

SPEAKER_08 54:38

Because cousin. I'm saying brother, because he's really nice. His cousin looks at his old couple next to him. He's like, Kevin isn't here. Kevin's not here, Kevin's in here, Kevin isn't here, Kevin's in here. The I think the only one who who has the most concerned face to my to buy was like um the other wife that's there. She's like, Kevin isn't here. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_11 54:56

Which is Frank's wife. She's like, She's like, I don't feel like dealing with this. And she's and then at first the mom, Kevin's mom's like, oh, okay. And then she's like, Kevin! She like realizes that we have her child with us. Which is also crazy. You've been all the way to Baggage Clay. That's a walk. And you didn't realize Kevin wasn't there. Right. They did make it all the way to back.

SPEAKER_01 55:19

If Kevin packed lightly and packed the backpack, when were you gonna realize that Kevin wasn't there?

SPEAKER_11 55:23

Because honestly, like, okay, the excuse prior to landing was like, oh, it was very chaotic. We were trying to hurry up and like make our flight. The flight has now been made and you've landed. So like as soon as you got off the plane, you should have noticed. So much. At the very least. I just know what I'm saying. Like baggage claim that is crazy.

SPEAKER_01 55:39

This kid needs a buddy. Y'all need to do buddy system with this child.

SPEAKER_11 55:41

Like, why aren't why aren't y'all paying attention? But yes, Kevin, they are freaking out because they realize Kevin is here. Meanwhile, Kevin's in New York City, and he celebrates that he gets to have Christmas his way in New York City. He's ecstatic. He goes sightseeing, he goes. Christmas is in New York. There's nothing better in the world. Exactly. And there's Christmas trees. He loves Christmas trees. He runs it to like a uh a Santa on Stiles, which I do not like. It was giving me horror. I did not like that saying on Stiles. He goes sightseeing on the um the uh I forgot what it's called.

unknown 56:15

Nothing.

SPEAKER_11 56:15

The World Trade Center.

SPEAKER_10 56:16

The World Trade Center, I've got to call it the Empire Center.

SPEAKER_11 56:18

Yeah. The World Trade Center. He's having a great time. Um, and at one point he realizes, hey, I'm gonna stay at the Plaza Hotel because earlier in the movie he saw a commercial for the greatest hotels I ever stayed at, which is the Plaza Hotel, which is right outside Central Park.

SPEAKER_07 56:33

If you've been in Central Park, you know what you see it. It's very iconic. Never been in it, wanna go. Um, but also on on Kevin's way to the Plaza Hotel.

SPEAKER_01 56:43

I don't know if I've been inside. Have I?

SPEAKER_11 56:45

You've been inside.

SPEAKER_00 56:45

Didn't we see when we went to New York? We saw Miss Macrey in the Plaza Hotel. Oh, did we?

SPEAKER_02 56:50

So long ago.

SPEAKER_00 56:51

You don't remember that?

SPEAKER_02 56:52

No. I do not.

SPEAKER_11 56:55

Um, but uh while another part I want to mention, while while Kevin is walking to the Plaza Hotel, he passes a fish market, he almost gets hit by a c a car and continues on his journey unbeknownst to him. He just uh crossed paths with two old villains, stabbing Harry and Marv, who have just broken foes, who have just broken out of prison.

SPEAKER_07 57:15

They're hiding in the back of a fish truck, and they are excited about their new freedom and plan to, you know, do one big score and live their lives out of the country with with their new money. Um, but they don't know fuck Risa Foot.

SPEAKER_10 57:31

Um Kevin continues his way to the Plaza Hotel. He runs into a lady who is um immersed or by pigeons and they're surrounded her and they lay on her, they feed her.

SPEAKER_08 57:42

These are her pets, these are her family, and he's freaked out about it, rightfully so. That's weird, lady.

SPEAKER_11 57:47

Um, while that's going on while he's having a grand time making his way to Plaza Hotel. Kevin's parents are at the police station and they're trying to alert the police that, hey, um, we lost our child. And police ask, like, is this is this something he does often? And they're like, no. I mean, this situation happened once before we left him in Chicago. Um, I think at first they think that Kevin's gotta be somewhere in Chicago's airport. Because he couldn't have gotten on a flight that he shouldn't have been on. So they think he's on Chicago's airport, no big deal. They don't know that Kevin's gotta he's just gotta wait to fuck shit up. He's got a hidden agenda. He's got a hidden agenda. So yes, at this point, Kevin makes it to the Plaza Hotel. Um, he knows that he can't just check into a hotel as a how old is he? 10-year-old? Whatever age he is, um, that he has to, you know, finesse his way into this hotel. But don't don't I he's Kevin's gotta be the highest, I guess. Don't count, don't count him out. He's got a plan. It's just funny that it's funny that he had this plan. But it's like, did you just it just came to him? So his plan, he is a he's like a voice translator or like a voice um I think he like the camcorder has like a feature to where you can disguise like a voice or disguise a recording. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he, before he even like goes to the counter and tries to like book a room, he records himself on his camcorder saying, My name is Peter McAllister. I would like to book a room at the Plaza Hotel for this night in this suite. Here's my credit card information. Already knowing like what the booking agent would ask him, so he kind of just says it in that order. Calls up the 1-800 toll number that he needs to call to book a hotel at the plaza. The booking agent is like, What's your name? He re runs that recording, but this time the voice, using the effect that the camp quarter has or the feature, the voice is like disguised as like very deep and like monotone and it's Sounds like it could be not really, but it sounds like it could be old man for the sake of the storyline. And she's like, Okay, cool. The booking agent books it's like, when you check in, just make sure you have that credit card with you, and you should be good. Cool. So now we got a reservation. So Kevin Mosey's on up to the desk and he's like, Hi, I'm checking in. And the lady's like, You're checking in for yourself. And he's like, ma'am, I'm 10 years old. Are you crazy? Like, 10 years old in New York City. Why would I be checking for myself? Kevin gaslights anyone who questions if he's by himself. He he gaslit the shit out of her. And then she's like, I'm confused. And he's like, I'm checking in on behalf of my father. He's a very busy man. He's at a meeting. He couldn't come to check in. So I have his credit card. And I'm just doing what he can't do right now. I need to go to sleep. I need to take a nap. And the lady's like, okay, well, do you have a credit card? She takes a credit card down. It works. Kevin himself is surprised. And the lady's like, okay, well, just please make sure when your father does arrive that he comes here because he has to sign like paperwork. While this exchange is exchange is happening, one of like the hotel managers, played by Tim Curry, is I feel like he's a hotel manager, but we could call him a concierge.

SPEAKER_09 1:01:26

The concierge hotel manager, Tim Curry, is watching Kevin and watching him check in, and he's very confused and very perplexed.

SPEAKER_11 1:01:34

Meanwhile, one of the bellhops is right next to him, played by Rob Schneider, and he's sitting there counting his tips. And the concierge, Tim Curry, tells Rob Schneider, his name is Cedric, she he tells him, watch out for that little boy. Because he's up to something. And Rob Schneider's like, okay, sure, fine. And so Rob Schneider goes over to Kevin, gets his bags, takes him up to the hotel room, um, gets him all situated. Kevin catches him looking in his bag, and Kevin's like, give me my fucking bag. And he gives him a piece of gum as a tip, and Rob Schneider's on his is on his way. And Kevin is now in New York, in the Plaza Hotel, staying unsupervised in the suite by himself as a 10-year-old. Yes. And he's having a ball. His first activity, he goes down to the pool. He asks politely. He's such a polite kid. He asks politely, is it okay if I practice my um Is it okay if I practice my cannonball?

SPEAKER_10 1:02:31

And he does. Um he loses underwear.

SPEAKER_11 1:02:33

Everyone says yes.

SPEAKER_10 1:02:35

White privilege, because little black kid is like some calling security.

SPEAKER_11 1:02:39

They're gonna be like, getting out the pool. Someone can you can you even swim? Can you even swim someone and have handcuffs? I'm confused. Um yes, Kevin does a pool day. He goes back up to his hotel room, he orders uh room service galore, crazy amount of resource room room service. He watches, is it the same movie he watched in the first one?

SPEAKER_10 1:03:02

Or is it like a sequel? It is the sequel.

SPEAKER_11 1:03:04

It is Angels with Even Silthier Soul. What he's watching.

SPEAKER_10 1:03:11

It's just hilarious.

SPEAKER_11 1:03:12

Is it the same actor? And we see Johnny, he's talking to his his one-time gal, and he's like, Where you been? She was like, Johnny, I was down at the hotel lobby. And he's like, No, you've been smooching my brother. Kissing my brother. You're the only bird in my pond. And he's like, get on your knees and tell me you love me.

SPEAKER_10 1:03:36

I thought that was an appropriate.

SPEAKER_11 1:03:37

I love you more than the sun itself. I love you more than that a fat kid loves cake. Ah, I believe ya, he says.

SPEAKER_10 1:03:45

And then he shoots her. He kills her. He kills her. She got five seconds to leave.

SPEAKER_05 1:03:49

One, you got three seconds to get your ugly, yellow, no good keister out of my face.

SPEAKER_11 1:03:59

And she's moving so fucking slow. She's moving. She's moving at like snail speed. By the time, by the time three happens, she's still on her knees. So he shoots her up and she dies.

SPEAKER_07 1:04:11

She did. Meanwhile. But this is this is just the movie. This is an inappropriate movie for y'all to watch.

SPEAKER_10 1:04:17

Meanwhile, in Florida, the McAllister family has arrived to the dumpiest of dumps of motels. I don't my my question was, did y'all purposely book this, or is this where y'all are staying to be close to the airport? What happened? Because there's who's who's in charge of travel?

SPEAKER_11 1:04:36

They booked that hotel.

SPEAKER_07 1:04:37

How there's there's just no way that you actually booked it.

SPEAKER_11 1:04:40

Because the cop is like, do y'all have like somewhere to stay while you're here? And they're like, yeah. And then they pull up at that freaking Motel 6. And then it's pouring raining out there. Pouring raining. Did you get for going to Florida? Did he think he was making a having like he's they think he was giving a great deal? What's the room rate?

SPEAKER_05 1:04:59

What they thought they were happening. What they thought they were happening.

SPEAKER_08 1:05:02

That really pissed me off. And once again, because similar to the first movie, they're in Paris to watch the TV and everything's in French. While they're watching TV in Florida, everything's in Spanish.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:10

Oh, that's hilarious. I didn't even notice that.

SPEAKER_11 1:05:21

But they were in Paris that's all they did was sit around and watch T. Just do it in Chicago. Back at the Plaza Hotel, um, Mr. Hector, who is not with the shits with Kevin, he thinks he's oped to something, he sneaks into Kevin's room, which is inappropriate to tell. He's got a key, so he he helps himself inside.

SPEAKER_10 1:05:39

Kevin is on the alert, so he jumps into action. He goes into the shower, starts to shower. He's an inflow inflatable inflatable like clown thing that his mom gave him earlier in the movie to like play while they were in Florida since they were gonna be like by the pool and whatnot.

SPEAKER_11 1:05:54

So he I guess he already had it staged, he turns the shower on, he gets that little thing moving, and he plays a recording that of his that his uncle was singing in the shower earlier, and he makes it Uncle Frank. So basically, to miss to Mr. Hector, it sounds like he caught Kevin's father, quote unquote, in the shower, sing the song, and at the end, um he hears him say, get out of here, you fucking perv. And um Mr.

SPEAKER_07 1:06:20

Hector thinks that he's being talked to himself, and he runs out as he should because why are you sneaking into people's rooms?

SPEAKER_11 1:06:28

I don't understand why he was so on the alert. I mean, I guess it is peculiar, like a young kid like checking in. But like, why are you so invested?

SPEAKER_10 1:06:36

You know, it's very Karen of him. Just are they paying you that much money?

SPEAKER_11 1:06:40

It's very Karen of him.

SPEAKER_10 1:06:42

He actually might have been paying well back then.

SPEAKER_11 1:06:44

Kevin gets one over on him, makes him think that he's his father when he's not, and Mr. Hector hits the hits the door. Yes. Because he's like, fuck, I've been caught. Right. The next morning, Kevin makes his way onto his next adventure, and he's trying to, I guess he's trying to stick with the hotel, or thinks Mr.

SPEAKER_08 1:07:04

Hector's gonna leave him alone, but he goes up to Kevin, he's like, Hey, I just is your father around? I'd like to apologize for yesterday's debacle. And Kevin's like, Well, I don't think he wants to see you.

SPEAKER_07 1:07:13

He left early this morning, and I don't think he wants to see someone who just saw his spare ass or something like that. And Kevin, and Mr. Hector's like, Oh, yeah, you're on to me, buddy.

SPEAKER_11 1:07:21

You got me there.

SPEAKER_10 1:07:22

Um, and then Kevin had a transportation a limo prepared for him to take him to a tour store so he can go shopping. At this point, Mr.

SPEAKER_11 1:07:33

Hector is not done with his his research, and he decides to run, he try he decides to run Kevin's card. While Kevin's out and about, uh, Mr.

SPEAKER_10 1:07:42

Hector he gets the alert that this card is stolen. He's very happy, and he's just gonna wait until Kevin to come back to, I don't know, punch a kid in the face. I don't know what the joy he gets out of this, I'm sure.

SPEAKER_11 1:07:52

Right, to just take down too. To belittle this little boy. You thought you had a dad, didn't you? So Kevin gets in his limo, courtesy of the Plaza Hotel. Also in his limo, he has like a free pizza. I read that the plaza offers this, like you can get like the home alone 2 special, and you can get like a private limo and like a pizza if you pay for it. I'm sure hundreds of thousands of dollars. I'm sure it's probably like$900. That's a whole that's not I lied. I'm sure it's like$5,000. Home alone.$900.

SPEAKER_10 1:08:25

That was a plaza offers a home alone fun New York package that includes four-hour limousine tour of movie, film, and locations, a large sheet piece of doing the core, and a giant ice cream sundae derive delivered to the room upon return. Guests also receive one of the hotel rooms and packages starting at you wanna guess the starting price for all of that. So a four-hour limit drive and a hotel room.

SPEAKER_11 1:08:50

$3,000.

SPEAKER_10 1:08:53

Not bad. Three it's from starting at$2,200 to$3,400 per night. Per night.

SPEAKER_11 1:09:01

But who would do that two nights in a row?

SPEAKER_10 1:09:03

I guess not.

SPEAKER_11 1:09:04

Like, why the fuck would I do that two nights in a row?

SPEAKER_10 1:09:06

They really have it on here as special offers.

SPEAKER_11 1:09:09

So yeah, Kevin's living the life of luxury on his Jet's card. Um, meanwhile, while he um he acts the limousine driver to take him to like a good toy store. Meanwhile, we see Marv and Harry wandering the streets of New York. They are talking about what they're gonna do. They're talking about how they escaped from jail during a prison riot, and now they are now transitioning to the sticky bandits instead of the wet bandits. But now they have to come up with their next big scheme, and they have decided, well, Harry has decided, that they are going to rob a toy store because Harry believes that something about Christmas Eve, they're not gonna deposit all of the money until like the next day. So like Christmas Eve is like the the best time to like rob a toy store, whatever.

SPEAKER_10 1:10:01

Thanks for close, they have a lot of cash. Um, and no one thinks you're gonna who's gonna who thinks you're gonna rob a toy store.

SPEAKER_11 1:10:08

Mm-hmm. So this is this is now their plan. So, oddly enough, the toy store that they plan to rob is the toy store that Kevin is currently on his way to.

SPEAKER_01 1:10:18

Dunkin' Toy Chess.

SPEAKER_11 1:10:19

So Kevin arrives at the Duncan's Toy Chest, which is the most magical-looking toy store in the world. It's amazing. So cute. There's trains and planes and toys and trees and all this fun stuff. And he's like a kid in a candy store. He picks some things up to purchase. Meanwhile, Marv and Harry have also made their way to this the toy store. They don't see Kevin. Kevin doesn't see them, but they are just staking out the place, seeing, you know, the lay of the land before they rob the place. So Kevin grabs all the items that he wants to purchase. He goes to the register, and he begins speaking with the cashier at the register. He's an old man, an older guy. And the guy asks him, Are you here by yourself? And Kevin's like, Sir, I'm 10 years old in New York City. Of course I'm not by myself. And he's like, Oh, okay. And then so he's he's gaslighting me. So then Kevin pulls out like a lot of cash. And then the man's like, Where did you get all that cash from? Kevin's like, I have a lot of grandmothers. Also. Um, and he's like, Yes, yes, of course, that makes sense.

SPEAKER_08 1:11:29

I can't, Kevin can't be the only rich kid walking around the plaza holding about himself.

SPEAKER_11 1:11:34

Yeah. Well, the other ones are walking with their nannies.

SPEAKER_02 1:11:39

Okay, sorry. That's what it is.

SPEAKER_11 1:11:41

That is what it is. So, um, then Kevin is complimenting the cashier. He's like, you know, this is a really nice toy store. This Mr. Duncan guy, he must really, you know, be a great guy to allow all these kids to come in here and, you know, buy these toys. I'm just like, it's not like he's giving the toys away for free, but whatever. And then Mr. Duncan is like called the the guy at the register. He's like, yeah, Mr. Duncan, he's a really great guy, you know, really cares about the kids. He does all of this. He doesn't say he's a great guy. But he's like, No, he does. I think you're right. He does a great guy. But now that you're repeating it, he sounds like such an artist. Because spoiler, he is Mr.

SPEAKER_05 1:12:21

Duncan.

SPEAKER_11 1:12:21

He's never thought about he's like, Yeah, Mr.

SPEAKER_08 1:12:23

Duncan's, he does this great thing every year where he donates money.

SPEAKER_11 1:12:27

He's like, Oh, you think it's great, huh? He he loves the kids, he does it all for the kids, and you know, all the sales from today, all of the proceeds, are going to go to the children's hospital up the street. And Kevin's just like, wow, that is amazing. That is beautiful. And Kevin is like, you know what? I shouldn't be giving this to you, but I'm gonna give you this$20 because I'm probably gonna spend it on junk food that's gonna rot my brain anyway. That's right, that's right. I'm gonna give you this$20 to add to the donation for the children's hospital. And Mr. Duncan, the guy at the register, is like, oh my goodness, that is so sweet. That is so kind. Um, you know, to thank you for your generosity. I am going to allow you to pick any ornament of your choosing from this tree right next to us. And Kevin's like, oh my god, an ornament for me? And he's like, You betcha, kid. And then so Kevin is like, I'll take these turtle doves. Mr. Duncan's like, great choice! I'll tell you why. Because these two turtle doves represent something very important, they represent friendship. So this is what you should do, Kevin. You take one and you keep it for yourself, and then you give the other dove to someone very special and very important to you. Okay, a true friend. And as long as you each have your turtle doves, you will remain friends forever.

unknown 1:14:00

Okay.

SPEAKER_11 1:14:01

And Kevin's like, oh wow, that's beautiful. He said, I know. I came up with it right now. He's like, I eat that shit up. I did that shit up. And Kevin's like, well, you know, it was really nice meeting you. Um, tell Mr. Duncan he has like a really nice place, and I really appreciate what he's doing. And he's like, Yeah, sure, cool. On the way out, Kevin sees a portrait of this old guy, and it says Mr. Duncan. It was the guy he was fucking talking to the whole time.

SPEAKER_07 1:14:26

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11 1:14:27

Oh, yeah. I peeped in. Okay. And then Kevin's like, oh, cool. They look familiar. Um, so Kevin, Kevin um goes on about his way. He exits the store.

SPEAKER_02 1:14:37

Meanwhile, yeah.

SPEAKER_11 1:14:39

Marv and Harry, remember, they were scoping out the scene. They're also leaving the store. Marv and Harry, they were walking up the streets earlier. Unbeknownst to both of them and Kevin, that they actually bumped Kevin. And Harry was like, oh, that looks like that kid. He looks familiar. Uh, but I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna give it too much thought.

SPEAKER_09 1:15:00

Then as he's leaving the store, he sees the back of Kevin again. And he's like, I think that's that little motherfucker. And then Kevin turns around. And then Harry looks to Marv and he's like, Marv, look who we have here.

SPEAKER_11 1:15:15

Look, it's the kid. So they walk up on Kevin. Kevin sees him, he screams in terror. Of course, a little boy screaming as two large men are towering over him, would cause the scene.

SPEAKER_09 1:15:27

So they can't really like snatch him up. So Kevin then starts to run. They now run after him.

SPEAKER_11 1:15:33

Kevin's gotta think quick. He's gotta think alight on his feet. How can he outrun these two fucking buffoons? So he sees this Jamaican immigrant. Immigrants get the job done. He's on the street selling his jewels. He's selling like pearls and jewelry and blah blah blah blah blah. Kevin goes up to him. Kevin's got all the cash in the world. He goes up to the Jamaican jeweler and he's like, Give me all the pearls you got. Jamaican jeweler says, if it's the pearls you want, it's the pearls I got. He gives him the pearls. Kevin begins running with the pearls. He breaks the pearls, throws them behind them, causing Marv and Harry to slip and fall, fall on their backs, and Kevin is able to get away.

SPEAKER_09 1:16:12

Kevin, but not for long though. Because eventually they get up. Kevin is running, running, running, running, running, running, running, running, running to the plaza.

SPEAKER_11 1:16:19

And Marv and Harry are not far behind. He runs. Mr. Hector, Tim Curry, the concierge, just standing outside the door waiting for him. And Kevin's like, you gotta help me. These two guys are chasing me. He ain't trying to hear none of that shit. He said, This credit card is stolen, you little, you little turd.

SPEAKER_09 1:16:38

And you're gonna go to jail.

SPEAKER_11 1:16:40

I wonder how the police will like to know that you have a stolen credit card and you're ringing it up. And Kevin said, I ain't got time for this. Now he gotta run for Mr. Hector. And Mr. Hector running after him. He said, Why are you going?

SPEAKER_09 1:16:52

He running. He's running. He runs into the lobby. Mr. Hector is like, stop that boy. Cedric sees Rob Schneider. So he's running after him. The same lady who checked him in is also running after him. And Mr.

SPEAKER_11 1:17:06

Hector, the three are trying to stop Kevin. Kevin, luckily, is so tiny and so small, they just can't catch him. He's too small, he's too quick, and he's able to get on the elevator. He gets on the elevator, he goes to his room. Quickly, packs up some snacks, packs up some things, and he said, I'm over this Christmas vacation, I'm ready to get home. He knows that these three people, Mr. Hector, Cedric, the Bellhop, and the lady who checked him in, and some like security guards, are on his tail. So what does he do? He he pulls out filthy angels with even dirtier souls, whatever the hell the movie's called, and he puts it on in the background.

SPEAKER_09 1:17:41

The mob that is chasing him, they bust into the hotel room. He plays this scene that we just described of Tony talking to his number one gal, his good time gal, and he's like, Stop!

SPEAKER_11 1:17:55

He tells the group, he's like, Stop right there. Get on your knees and tell me you love me. They get on their knees, tell them that he loves them. And he's like, I believe you, you got three seconds to get out of here. They hear gunshots, and they think this guy is in this hotel room with a gun, and they're ducking for their lives. They make it out in the hallway, they're crawling, they tell all the guests to stay in your room. There's a man in the hotel room who's deranged with a gun. Johnny says, Merry Christmas, you filthy animal, and a happy new year. And Kevin makes his way out of the hotel through the loading dock.

SPEAKER_08 1:18:36

So as he's exiting the loading dock, he runs it unexpectedly the back door. He runs it to Harry and Marv, who are perfectly sitting there waiting for him.

SPEAKER_11 1:18:44

They say, Hey, buddy. Um, in his hand, Kevin's got his plane ticket, I guess, to go to Florida still, even though I think they're fine to that. Anyway, they're like, Oh, you trying to go to Florida? I guess you got the wrong ticket. Um, you're going to hell because they're gonna kill you. Um so as they're walking, Marv, who can't keep his mouth shut, um, he's automatically I love how he's like giving them like a life update. He's giving Kevin a life up. He's like, you know, we thought we were down and out after you because like we ended up in jail, but we were able to break out, and now we've we're doing great. We're at the top of the world, but that's a great plan. We're actually gonna rob this toy store, then we're gonna get some fake passports, head to Cuba. And Kevin's like, I don't know.

SPEAKER_08 1:19:25

Meanwhile, Kevin's recording the whole thing. He's got the tape recorder, he's always on it.

SPEAKER_11 1:19:29

He's he's retorting we've seen this podcast, he's recording the whole thing. And Marv is telling Kevin's the genius. Kevin, Marv is the game. I didn't notice he was recording. He's recording. Uh Marv is telling the whole story.

SPEAKER_08 1:19:39

I think at this point that Marv and Harry are lovers.

SPEAKER_11 1:19:43

Because I just don't understand I just understand why only because I just understand why Harry Harry would hang around with Marv so much. I feel like he's got a deep affection for him. I don't know. Because why why maybe they're brothers?

unknown 1:19:58

No.

SPEAKER_11 1:20:00

And I was thinking that, but I think it's just gotta be something deeper. Maybe they grew up in the foster system together. It's a love. It's a deep love. Because there's no reason why Harry should stick around with Marv. Because Harry would be a great thief. He would have survived everything was it for Marv.

SPEAKER_00 1:20:13

He would be a I think they're from the same orphanage.

SPEAKER_08 1:20:16

I don't know, but I think it's a deep love.

SPEAKER_11 1:20:18

It's a deep love. I like to say it's a deep gay love, but whatever. I think it's a deep love there. Anywho. Mar Harry tells Marv, shut up, stop talking, stop giving him the plan. And Harry is about business. He said, Hey kid, we're gonna drown you with the fishes. I got a gun. Don't run. And he points a gun to Kevin, the back of Kevin's body, which is a bit much for a kid's movie. But at this point, they're standing at a street light, and before them is a young lady. And Kevin's like, How do I gather the situation? So he reaches and he squeezes the lady's butt and pretends like he didn't do anything. And the lady turns around and she looks at Marv, a man she saw earlier, Googling her, and she's like, I know it was you, you fucking weirdo. And she smacks him in the face. And then Kevin goes, It was him. Oh, she punches him. Then Kevin goes, No, it wasn't him. It was Harry. So the lady punches Harry and Kevin makes it out of this situation. Um, while that's going on, back in Florida, Kevin's parents have been alerted that they found uh Kevin's credit cards and they know that he's in New York City. Whatever. They know that he's in New York City, they know that Kevin's in New York City, and they're he's staying at the Plaza Hotel. They know that they don't have Kevin, unfortunately, but they make plans to go there. They tell everyone to backpack their bags. The family says, Yeah, I don't know why you guys are so fucking excited. I lost my child. Oh, so at this point, Kevin, who earlier found his uncle's address in his dad's like address book.

SPEAKER_08 1:21:46

Um, because Kevin's uncle lives in New York City.

SPEAKER_11 1:21:51

They live in New York, but those are the same, that's the same uncle that they were went to Paris to visit. So in another scene, Kevin's dad is like, Do you think you'd be smart enough to go to my to my uncle, no, to my brother's place?

SPEAKER_07 1:22:05

I know he's in New York City and it's under reservation under like renovations. If you think you'd be smart, smart enough to go there.

SPEAKER_11 1:22:11

They're like, maybe. So, of course, that's where Kevin went. He goes, knocks on the door, and he calls Rose Anne and Uncle. They're not there. We get on the inside of the house, and it's like abandoned. So no one's at home at all after this. So at this point, Kevin runs inside of Central Park, and he's he's hiding behind a tree. He sees a pigeon, he starts feeding it, and then creepily, the pigeon lady that I saw earlier like pops her head up. But the pigeon lady slowly pops her head up, and he's like, Oh, this bitch again.

SPEAKER_10 1:22:43

Um, he tries to run away.

SPEAKER_08 1:22:44

He's like, He tries to run away, but his foot is stuck like somewhere in like the tree branches, and he can't get away.

SPEAKER_11 1:22:50

But the pigeon lady grabs his foot, releases him, and at this point, Kevin runs, but he stops. He thinks about what's happened.

SPEAKER_08 1:22:58

He's like, goes back to her and he's like, I'm sorry for running. Um, what you did back there was really nice. I will say I was a little off-putted by the pigeons and everything, but you seem like a really nice lady. Um, I happen to be here by myself.

SPEAKER_11 1:23:11

Can I offer you a cup of cocoa? He's like, Am I bothering you?

SPEAKER_05 1:23:14

Am I talking too much?

SPEAKER_11 1:23:15

He's so sad.

SPEAKER_05 1:23:16

And she's like, No. No, you're fine. He's like, okay.

SPEAKER_11 1:23:19

Um, can we go get a cup of cocoa on me? And she's like, Yeah, sure. He's like, Do you know any places we can go to grab some? I don't really know. I don't really know the city. I'm not really from a few. And the nice pigeon lady takes Kevin to the attic of some like opera house or theater. Um, and below is some kind of play going on, and the pigeon lady goes on about how she sees all these plays here, and she loves to come here often. And I think Kevin asks, Do you bring your friends here a lot?

SPEAKER_01 1:23:47

She's like, Well, I don't have any friends. And he's like, We don't have any friends. That's crazy. Why don't you have any friends?

SPEAKER_08 1:23:52

And she shares how her life fell apart because she's been in love with this man or her husband, I guess, and they fell all in love and he betrayed her, and it really did a number on her, and now she doesn't have any friends, and she stopped talking to people, and she moved to the Central Park, and now it's only friends with pigeons.

SPEAKER_11 1:24:10

The pigeons can hurt. Yes, and then Kevin's like, that's weird that you don't have any friends because like you seem like a cool person. Like, you know, spit when you talk, you a great conversation, you make great conversation.

SPEAKER_07 1:24:21

Um, you should try to get out there, talk to people. And she's like, I don't want to get my heart broken. He's like, That's stupid. You already got your heart broken.

SPEAKER_08 1:24:28

What's there to lose? Nothing to lose.

SPEAKER_11 1:24:30

And Kevin basically encouraged her to trust again. And Kevin tells her, no, the pigeon lady tells Kevin a piece of advice that in order to make up because Kevin, I don't know, he feels bad about his bad deeds that he did, which I don't think he did anything wrong. Besides Besides, take a credit card.

SPEAKER_05 1:24:47

I mean, I guess he could-be running maybe running up their credit card, but and I guess I think I guess he could have called somebody to do.

SPEAKER_07 1:24:53

I guess he could have called somebody and said, Hey guys, I'm I'm in New York City.

SPEAKER_11 1:24:56

Um, 911 for whatever the kid never calls 911. But he's like, I I feel bad for all the bad deeds I did. And the in the pigeon lane is like, hey, you can you can make up for your bad deeds.

SPEAKER_10 1:25:07

And he's like, I did a lot of bad ones. And so she said it's Christmas. You could cut compound the interest on the good deeds during Christmas. He's like, really? He's like, yeah. And then Kevin's like, you know what? I gotta, you know, I gotta go. Thank you for your company. Um, hope to see you around. But I gotta jet. Let's stay in touch.

SPEAKER_11 1:25:22

They had some good conversations. That was really long. I really could not regurgitate everything he said. I was like, I have they were just going on and on and on. It felt like they were talking about everything under the sun. They probably talking about the freaking purpose of life. They were. But after this conversation, um, I thought this I thought it was really sweet. So he walks past the children's hospital that Duncan was gonna donate all that money to. And he sees a little boy, a sick little boy looking out the window, and Kevin's walking, and the little sick boy waves at Kevin, and Kevin waves back at him, and they're like the same age, and it was so freaking cute. And then the the thought of Marv and Harry robbing Duncan and stealing the money is like playing in his head, and he's like, uh-uh-uh-uh-uh. The last thing you're gonna do is steal from sick kids on Christmas. Yeah, he says you can mess with a lot of things. But you can't mess with kids on Christmas. He says you can mess with a lot of things we can't mess with kids on Christmas. Like, in that moment, he's like, you know, I'm gonna put an end to these motherfuckers. So he's back on his bullshit that he was on in 1990, and he is about to set these mothercluckers up. He is about to ruin their good time. So, before he heads to Duncan, he goes to his uncle and aunt's Peter's father's brother's house or brownstone in New York that is under construction. And he went there earlier looking for them and they weren't there. So he goes there again, he knows it's under construction, and he's going to use this house like he did with his actual house in the first movie. He's gonna use this, set up booby traps to, you know, leave Marv and Harry. Render them useless. Is that what's in Mar?

SPEAKER_08 1:27:13

Render them hurt.

SPEAKER_11 1:27:16

So that is what he does. He sets up all kinds of booby traps. He's putting fire, he's putting gasoline in the toilet bowl, he's putting grease on the floor, he's putting tools in the sky, he's drilling holes in the floor, he's doing all this stuff.

SPEAKER_09 1:27:32

Meanwhile, Kevin's family has now landed in New York.

SPEAKER_11 1:27:36

They're at the plaza. Frederick, Cedric, the lady who checked Kevin in, and Tim Curry, Mr. Hector, are all standing at the desk while Kevin's mother and father are like getting the scoops, and they're really ripping them a new one. Which is crazy. And they're like, you mean to tell me you let a little boy check into a hotel unaccompanied without any adult, and you didn't think to call anybody, the police, see who his parents were, etc. etc. And the lady's like, well, ma'am, he had a very convincing story. And then Peter's father is like, what kind of idiots do you have running this hotel? Tim Curry, Mr. Hector says the finest in all of New York. And it's a crazy thing to tell someone who lost their kids. And then Kate the mom is like, Why did you let him leave? And then Mr. Hector is like, well, he started running. And she was like, Well, he was probably scared because he's a child. And they offer them a free room for the night. They tell the family they can check in. Meanwhile, Kate is like, I'm gonna go out, hit the streets, and I'm gonna go look for Kevin. And Peter's like, no, you can't do that. And she's like, I'm his mother. I am gonna do that. You stay here with the rest of the family, I'm gonna go look for Kevin.

SPEAKER_07 1:28:51

He goes to the police station. I'll say that.

SPEAKER_11 1:28:53

He goes, Peter goes to the police station.

SPEAKER_07 1:28:55

But another the rest of the family offers to do nothing. What are y'all doing here?

SPEAKER_11 1:28:58

Do they ever offer to help help? Why do they vacation?

SPEAKER_08 1:29:02

Half of y'all are adults. There's only one kid left. One is in New York City and this other kid, some of Grabb's hand.

SPEAKER_11 1:29:06

They they got 14 kids between them. They have a lot of children in the bunch. But they're not they're not Kevin's age. They're like 13. They can y'all can walk the streets of New York City together and find my child. Right. They're almost just like the the kids are tired. Let them sleep.

SPEAKER_07 1:29:23

They're not tired. They haven't done anything. And you only got this hotel because I lost my son. So get your ass out there in the streets.

SPEAKER_11 1:29:29

Mm-hmm. Exactly. So, ironically enough, the first place that Kate goes to check for is Peter's brother's home that's under renovation, the Brownstone. Unfortunately, she sees that no one's there and she leaves. Meanwhile, Kevin is at Duncan's place, the toy store, where he sees Marv and Harry in the window, stealing and stashing the cash. He's like, hey guys, over here, you who smile, takes a picture of them. Now he has photographic evidence that they are the robbers. And what does he do now? He takes a brick and he's like, This is it, there's no going back after this. I'm locking in.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11 1:30:15

And the brick does have a note attached to it, and he throws the brick through the window, breaking and shattering the glass, which sets the alarm off. So now the police will be notified, etc. etc. Now begins the booby traps. Kevin's already set up his very first booby trap. He puts a little booby trap for Marv and Harry to step on as they run out of the toy store. It's like a a a seesaw type of thing. Like he puts like a plank of wood and then he puts like a barrel underneath it. So when like Marv steps on it, one in Harry launches in the sky like 10 feet, and then he lands on a car on his back. Um as we mentioned last time, experts have said that the all of the ticks and the booby traps that they've incurred, they should have serious injuries, if not death. And Harry being launched 15 feet into the air and then landing on a car on his back, he should be, if not paralyzed, his back should be broken. If not dead.

SPEAKER_10 1:31:26

And at this point, just let the revenge go, because you got the money.

SPEAKER_11 1:31:29

Just go home. Just run the other direction. Why y'all trying to run around and kill this kid? Because he's got the evidence.

SPEAKER_10 1:31:36

I guess so. Oh, and he does that episode. Um Kevin lures them back to uh Kevin's uncle's place where he has a preferen of booby traps, which I've listed here. Let's go through them. So Ket so they arrive, um, downstairs in the street, Kevin's on the roof, and he throws about three or four bricks, all hitting Marv in the head. That's strike one. He should be dead after that.

SPEAKER_09 1:31:59

If not concussed, dead. Dead. If not unconscious, dead. Dead.

SPEAKER_10 1:32:04

So Marv then tries to open the front door.

SPEAKER_11 1:32:06

Um, but there's another booby trap that every time he pulls on the handle or something, when he pulls on the handle, he gets uh his get his he gets his butt stapled by a staple gun.

SPEAKER_10 1:32:16

Harry goes around back, tries to enter the home via the fire escape, but uh Kevin has greased the ladder and he falls and hits his head, another concussion. Uh Marv then somehow makes it inside the house, but as he makes his first step in, he falls like three floors into the basement um via the hole in the floor. What kind of renovations are going on in this home?

SPEAKER_05 1:32:39

Why is there a hole?

SPEAKER_07 1:32:40

These don't seem like regular renovations. This seems like you should just tear down the house.

SPEAKER_11 1:32:46

I guess they were trying to like get get rid of a floor. I don't know.

SPEAKER_10 1:32:49

I don't know what they were trying to do. Um, but then Harry finally makes it inside the house. When he opens the door, a bag of uh tools falls on his head, another concussion.

SPEAKER_07 1:32:59

Um uh Marv, who is now in the basement, he tries to get up and he slips and slides on a uh uh a floor coupled with grease and he runs into like a shelf of paint, all of which that fall on him.

SPEAKER_10 1:33:13

Um Marv in a different area of the house gets electrocuted. Oh no, I'm sorry. Same with Marv. Marv also gets electrocuted. I don't know how he gets electrocuted. He touches something, Kevin turns on something.

SPEAKER_11 1:33:24

He tries to like wash the paint off of his face.

SPEAKER_07 1:33:27

How does that electrocution?

SPEAKER_11 1:33:28

And then he turns, he turns on the sink, and then somehow Kevin has like I don't know. I don't know how that is how the the vaults or the bolts and jolts, the wires, whatever, how that causes him to get electrocuted, but he's got his hooked up to some sort of mechanism that as soon as his hands touch it, he's electrocuted.

SPEAKER_08 1:33:50

Yes, and there's even one scene where he like goes from marv to like a skeleton, and somehow still alive.

SPEAKER_11 1:33:56

Harry um enters like the bathroom, and as he enters, his hair gets set on fire. And when he tries to put it out this in the sink, there's no running water, he sees that the toilet is filled with water, he dunks his head in there. Oops, I think it's filled with like gasoline, and like the house has a little minor explosion. He should be dead. Everyone should be dead after that one. Um Marv, who's still in the basement, um, sees a robe and he's like, Okay, I can climb out of the basement. He pulls on the rope, it's attached to a bag full of like I don't know, some kind of like powder, powder, like semen.

SPEAKER_10 1:34:30

I don't know what happens in construction, but I fall on the top of his head and he's covered in white dust, and that should have gave him another concussion.

SPEAKER_07 1:34:36

Um, but Marv eventually is able to like stack some things.

SPEAKER_11 1:34:40

Marv is getting it the worst.

SPEAKER_04 1:34:43

Harry ain't getting touched as nearly as much as Marv.

SPEAKER_11 1:34:47

Yeah, Marv is getting two times. So Marv like stacks things on top of each other, and he's able to climb out of the basement. Um, at this point, he he finally makes it to wherever Harry is, and they both see Kevin go up a ladder. Kevin like taunts them and says, Hey, you big idiots, come get me. Um, but uh Marv is still trying to climb up, but Harry's fully on this floor. So he sees Kevin, he runs up this ladder, but Kevin has like cut like a slit in it that's only strong enough to hold a child's body weight. So when Harry runs up it, the ladder splits in half and Harry falls.

SPEAKER_10 1:35:22

Another concussion. Um Harry and Marv then go up a flight of stairs. Um, but at this point, they're on to him.

SPEAKER_11 1:35:31

They're like, you remember what happened last time? In the last movie, Kevin breaks attaches the cans of paint to the staircase railing. Yes. And as they're walking up the stairs, he pulls it back and it swings and hits them in the face. Yes. So he tries that again, and then Marv and Harry are onto him. So they're like, nope, this is not gonna happen. So when Kevin pushes it, they're like, they make it like a fake, like, oh, you got me. And then Kevin pushes another one. They're like, oh no, you got me again. And then at this point, Kevin. They think that's it. They're like, oh, one, two, that's it. You ain't got no more.

SPEAKER_07 1:36:09

And then Kevin pushes some kind of like long, I don't even know what it is, like some long two metal.

SPEAKER_05 1:36:15

It's like an iron bar.

SPEAKER_07 1:36:17

Yes, and he pushes that, and that that just that sends them from they might have been on the third floor all the way back to the basement.

SPEAKER_10 1:36:24

They fall through the the floors and they're back where they well, back where Marv started.

SPEAKER_11 1:36:29

But at this point, Marv and Harry made another basement by stacking things up once again, and they see Kevin has gone up another flight of stairs, a different flight of stairs. So they follow Kevin up this flight of stairs. They try to open the door, but they're not unable to open it. Um, as they pull on the doorknob, Kevin has rigged at the top of the staircase a full tool chest. So whenever Marv and Harry pull on it, the tool chest is slowly coming down. They're leaning on the door, they're like, you know, what is what is that sound? What am I hearing? Unbeknownst to them, it is the tools, the tool chest, and it comes smashing through the door, setting them, like hits them in the face, sends them to like the other side of the door. There's a scene where their noses get like like uh broken, but obviously not broken because none of this is real. But at this point, Kevin finally makes it to the roof, and so does Marv and Harry. Kevin has shimmy down this rope onto the street, and he sees Marv and Harry finally on the roof, and he's like, Come, come and get me, you you big idiots. Marv has to throw a brick at Kevin, but misses it. Um this point, Kevin, no, Harry and Marv, they're like, Okay, let's go down this rope, we're going. So they start to climb down. Marv is like, I smell something. Harry's like, I don't know what you're talking about. And then Kevin sets the rope on fire, is covered in some some type of flammable uh substance, and the the rope is set on fire. Um, Harry and Marv go falling to their not death, but to their pain. They land on the ground, and they you think it's the last bit of thing, but whatever Kevin's got on the roof, it all like all kind of paint and like gas and like oils falls on top of them. And somehow they still survive this. But this is the last of their pranks. Kevin finds like a pay phone, he calls the police, and he says, Hey, I have the people who broke into Duncan's toy chest.

SPEAKER_10 1:38:22

They're going to Central Park and they're gonna be at here and here, look for the fireworks. And then he leads Harry and Marv to Central Park.

SPEAKER_11 1:38:31

Well, he was doing good at first, like he was outrunning them, then he slips and falls. Like he had the other hand, then he slips and falls on his back. And then now they've kind of like snatched him up. So they lead him into the park. And um just when they're in Central Park, it's night, it's dark time, it's dark time. So Harry's like, This is it. The moment I've been waiting for. He pulls out his gun and pointed at Kevin. He tells Kevin, he said, You know what, kid, I've never made it to the sixth grade, and it looks like you're not either. And um, I think like some pigeons start like flying around or something. And Marv is like, Harry. And Harry's like, shut up. I'm gonna enjoy this. And then Marv's like, Harry, but like, look, and he's like, shut the fuck up. And Harry's like, be quiet. And Marv's like, we gotta get out of here, we gotta get out of here. And he's like, no, I've been waiting all my life for this. And then the pigeon lady comes and she like sends like a flock of pigeons on him.

SPEAKER_08 1:39:38

She she throws uh pigeon feed on on them.

SPEAKER_11 1:39:41

On season, and they're like covered with in like this oil, the sticky stuff, so it kind of just sticks on them. And then her gang of pigeons just attack them. It's disgusting because pigeons are like rats with wings. Um, sorry, to the pigeons community. But they are especially New York pigeons, could you imagine?

SPEAKER_09 1:39:58

Yes, they're covered in dude.

SPEAKER_11 1:40:00

These. They are. But yes, they are covered. So what harder is free health care where they're going. So ha ha ha ha. Nice one. So Marv and Harry are covered in pigeons. Uh Kevin has gone away and he sets the fireworks like five feet away for them to alert the police. And he tells the pigeon lady, Thanks, you rock my socks. I think earlier he said, I'm never gonna forget you too. Sorry, that comes back completely. Anyway, him and this pigeon lady, they're on the same page. They got a bond. Um, and then Kevin takes off. The police are coming in. He's like, run, Kevin, run. The police are coming in. Kevin's leaving. He does not like the police. The man does not like the police. He don't want to deal with them. He does not want to deal with them. Um, so back at the tour store, Mr. Duncan has arrived to the you know, the broken windows and the cry. Um, and the police say, hey, we see we we found this brick, we found this note, in the note is in the note is the note is from Kevin, and in it he says, Hey, sorry about the window. I did it to stop the the burglars. Um, if you need some cash, there's some cash attached here. If you need some more cash, um, let me know and I'll get back to you. And he tells him, Thanks for the turtle doves. Kevin McAllister.

SPEAKER_01 1:41:15

Kevin McAllister. Shout out to him.

SPEAKER_11 1:41:18

Meanwhile, Kate, she's looking all over New York. She's running up and down the streets, going up to bombs and strangers and people. And she's like, Have you seen my son, Kevin? It's New York, so people are rude, they're ignoring her. Then she runs into um this cop in his patrol car and she asks him, like, hey, have you seen my son? And he's like, Did you report it to the police? Your missing son? And she's like, Yes, of course I did. And he was like, Well, trust that we're handling it. Oh. She's like, So off. She turns to him and she's like, Do you have kids? And he's like, Well, yes, I do. And she's like, What would you be doing if your child was lost in the streets of New York? And he was like, you know, I'd probably be doing exactly what you're doing. And she's like, Okay, exactly. Thank you. But he's like, you know, this is a needle in a haystack, you're going against. But then he tells her, Okay, like, think up, think about what your son would do. Put yourself in his shoes. How would he operate? And she was like, girl, if this was me, I would be a nervous erector. But oh, not Kevin. Not my sweet Kevin. He's so brave, he's so tough, he's so amazing. But at the end of the day, he's still 10, so I'm concerned. Com's like, okay, where do you think he'd be? And she's like, shit, I don't know. Christmas, he could be anywhere.

SPEAKER_01 1:42:35

You know what?

SPEAKER_11 1:42:36

I don't know. But you know what?

SPEAKER_01 1:42:38

He loves a Christmas tree.

SPEAKER_11 1:42:39

I know exactly where he is. The Christmas tree. He loves Christmas trees. I need to go to Rockefeller Center right now. And he's like, get in. He gets in.

SPEAKER_10 1:42:50

So weird.

SPEAKER_11 1:42:51

They pull up at 30 Rock 30 Rock Plaza. And Kevin is standing in front of the 30 Rock Christmas tree that is lit up all beautiful and nice. And he is talking to the Christmas tree as if the Christmas tree is God. And is saying, you know, please bring black bring back my family. I miss them. Even if you can't bring back my family, please let me see my mom. Even if it's for five minutes. He's like, he thinks he's like never gonna see her again. Like all he has to do is go to a police station. That's the best part. I watch one regular looking adult. I'm a lost child. I think it's hilarious that he's like, I guess I'm gonna have to live on the streets of New York. Right. He's like, I'll have to live this life forever. He can stop like burglars, but he can't deduce that all you have to do is go to the police station.

SPEAKER_10 1:43:49

Walk into any business and say, hey, yes, you can tell up a white kid, call my mom.

SPEAKER_05 1:43:53

And I'm lost.

SPEAKER_11 1:43:54

All the police. I'm important. Send the FBI. I need help.

SPEAKER_05 1:43:59

Send the FBI. I'm on milk carton. So he tells the tree.

SPEAKER_11 1:44:05

He's like, even if it's two minutes, please let me see my mommy. And then here comes Kate and she's like, Kevin. And Kevin's like, wow, that was fast. They run to each other, they embrace. They apologize to each other. They say, I'm sorry for what I said. I'm sorry for what I said. And they said, and they reconcile and they bond. And I this better be the last time she played in this kid's face. Because we don't have a home alone three starring Kevin. And you know what? At first I was like, why don't you got a home alone three?

SPEAKER_07 1:44:33

But you can only lose a child so many times.

SPEAKER_11 1:44:35

They do have a home alone.

SPEAKER_07 1:44:37

I know, but with I'm sorry, with the not with him. Yeah, not with him.

SPEAKER_11 1:44:40

I did read that they were trying to make a third one with him as a teenager. But he was retired from acting at that time.

SPEAKER_01 1:44:46

Oh he was. As a teenager, can I get lost? If he he wasn't getting lost at 10.

SPEAKER_08 1:44:51

He was just going on an adventure at this point.

SPEAKER_01 1:44:53

Right, at that point.

SPEAKER_08 1:44:54

And yeah, I feel like he just can only lose a I mean, I guess they could have made it work, but I feel like you can only lose a kid so many times before he's like, guys, come on.

SPEAKER_00 1:45:00

Yeah, before it gets old.

SPEAKER_07 1:45:02

Strap this nigga down to the bed because he can't go on.

SPEAKER_11 1:45:05

This is getting ridiculous.

SPEAKER_07 1:45:07

Yes.

SPEAKER_11 1:45:07

But um Kevin goes home to his family the next morning. It's Christmas Day. They wake up, they have like a two-four. They wake up in the plaza hotel. In a two-four suite. In a suite. It's gotta be the president of the suite. With stairs. For whatever reason, all ten of the kids are sleeping in one room, which I think is so cute though. They're like all just like all by each other. They're all that they're all sleeping. And I think it's so cute that there's you know cousins.

SPEAKER_05 1:45:34

I I thought that was like really ridiculous. I was like, why are they all on top of each other when they're in a two-star, two-floor suite?

SPEAKER_11 1:45:41

There's a king-sized bed and the smallest child sleeping in it. And then like half of them are like, and then I'm about to say the pitsy, the pitsy one, uh, what's his name? What's that little boy's name in him? Uh-huh. Fuller. He got the bed to himself. Uh-huh. I guess because he pisses the baby. Yes, that's true. Um, he wakes up and he's like, oh my god, guys, it's Christmas. And Kevin says, Hey kid. I wouldn't spec much. We're like, well, he tells Fuller he's like, a lot's going on. Like, we're supposed to have Christmas in Miami. Yeah. Now we're in New York. Like, I would not expect any type of Fuller's like, are you crazy? It's Christmas. This is the magic that it brings. So Fuller runs to the Christmas tree, and the Christmas tree is loaded, filled, stacked with presents upon presents upon presents upon presents. You get a present, you get a present, you get a present, you get a present. Of course, they're all like, Where do all these presents come from? Even the parents are like, what the fuck? And they came from no other. The one, the only, Mr. Duncan. He somehow, somehow, because he's supposed to be like Santa Claus in this movie, got all them presents under the Christmas tree when they were sleeping. Yes. How do you know where he's at? Right. Right. And he filled up their Christmas tree. That was so sweet. I love how Fuller was like, are you crazy? Santa Claus is omnipresent. That's a big ass word for you.

SPEAKER_07 1:47:05

That's a big word for you. But he's not lying because, like, obviously, Santa would know everything about everyone.

SPEAKER_11 1:47:11

It's a Christmas miracle. And then everyone is like, yo, like, how did all these presents get here? Like, it was Mr. Duncan. And then Kevin's older brother, Buzz, is like, you know what? Can't stand it. I have something to say. Because Kevin calls all of this and his reason why we had to go through this ridiculous mess.

SPEAKER_06 1:47:34

He's also the reason why we got all these awesome, wonderful presents underneath the Christmas tree, and why we're in this sick ass hotel suite. So I think he should have the honors of opening the first present. Shut up, you fucking loser. I can't stand him.

SPEAKER_11 1:47:48

I feel like, okay, what why do I whatever. I get to open the first present. It's not that big of an omnipotent.

SPEAKER_08 1:47:56

These are all my presents, actually.

SPEAKER_11 1:47:58

And honestly, these presents aren't for everyone. Um, because these are from a toy store, and only half of these are gonna work first. Right. This is a gamble. This is a gamble. This is a gamble. Because there's 18 crayon boxes in here, and I'm 45. Like, I'm a I'm a dad. Right. Where's my present? Right. There's a dollhouse, and I wanted GI Joe. Right. Um, but yes, the family's happy, they're opening gifts, and at this point, Kevin's like, you know what? There's someone I need to see today. So he sneaks out. We see him running back to the area that he saw Pigeon Lady the like the first day in New York City, and he goes up to her and he he gives her one of the torto doves and he says, Hey, because she got trust issues. She's like, she thinks that if she meets someone, they're gonna abandon her tomorrow. So Kevin does the nice thing of giving her the opposite torto, or one of the other torto doves that he has, and he says, Hey, this is a token of our friendship. Because you, because I'm giving you this torto dove, we will never forget each other, and I'm never gonna forget you.

SPEAKER_07 1:48:57

We might not talk, but I'm never gonna forget you. And that part almost made me cry because that was sweet. And she goes, Oh, Kevin. The girl, the lady beats us. I think she's gonna get a shit together after this. I think she's gonna leave Central Park, leave the pigeons behind, and find her man. What did this man do?

SPEAKER_00 1:49:16

He's like, I'll never forget you. This that that part got so sad because he'll never see her again.

SPEAKER_11 1:49:24

And she's never gonna forget about him. He literally will never forget her. He's gonna be like, and I will always remember that lady in Central Park that saved my life. And she's gonna be like, I'm always gonna think about the little boy who saved my life, you know? Right, they saved each other's lives. They saved each other's life. Um and it's really sweet. Back in the hotel suite, Buzz gets a knock on the door, and it's um Cedric, the Rob Schneider. Bry Schneider, and he's like, This is the bill for you know the Mercallister family, and he's he gives them this tiny book of paper, and he and and Buzz opens it, and at the very bottom he sees a total of$967 for room service. And while Kevin$2,000, yeah. It's like$2,000. Adjusted for inflation, adjusted for inflation. It's like$2,000. Kevin's dad hears this and he screams so loud from his hotel room that Kevin hears it from across the street in Central Park. He's like, Kevin, you spent$967 on room service. And Kevin can hear it because the dad's got full, you know, dad madness, and Kevin runs back to the street. What the fuck is dad madness?

SPEAKER_05 1:50:30

That that scream made up dad magnus.

SPEAKER_11 1:50:36

Because Kevin he acts like he can hear it in switch apart. He he's got the full strength of whatever dad is a good thing. That's what it's wearing. I feel like you mixed you mixed magnitude and madness. Madness? What did I say? Dad, dad. You said dad magnus. Oh, I said madness. Oh, I thought I said madness. Magnus? No, you said magnus. I thought you were it sounded like you were combining madness and magnitude.

SPEAKER_07 1:51:04

I meant to say madness. Um, but yes, Kevin can hear this scream from across the uh the street, across the park, and he runs back and he's like, Yes, I gotta go deal with it. Because$2,000 on room service is crazy.

SPEAKER_11 1:51:15

Also at first when I saw it, I was like,$900 is literally nothing. I was like, y'all are staying in this room for free, big wood. But then I was like, oh wait, inflation. And then I Googled it. I was like, ah,$2,000. They are staying in it for free. There is something. Because it won't.

SPEAKER_09 1:51:31

It's just like you don't I would ask to have that shit comp. I said, Y'all need a comp after this. They leave.

SPEAKER_11 1:51:36

And as as Mr. Hector, I just said, hell no. Not the way you berated maybe it was nice and we on a prone arrival, but no.

SPEAKER_08 1:51:43

I'm not coming, not a damn thing.

SPEAKER_07 1:51:46

Also, um, fuck you and your kid. Also, what I'm confused about your money, Lane. Because you flew everyone to Florida. You flew in black from Florida to New York City. He got this shit. Exactly.

SPEAKER_11 1:51:56

That's why he ain't got$2,000 for room service. He doesn't spend all his money. He ain't got no more. And you know what?

SPEAKER_08 1:52:01

You know who's drawing her right? Their brother, who lives in Paris. He's like, I do I absolutely never want to see them.

SPEAKER_00 1:52:07

They didn't even show him in Paris.

SPEAKER_08 1:52:10

I don't know. They act like he was in Paris, but I never saw him.

SPEAKER_00 1:52:13

He was in Paris in the first movie. That was them in the back that was hanging up the Christmas tree. They was putting up the ornaments on the Christmas tree.

SPEAKER_10 1:52:21

He called, they called this bluffed.

SPEAKER_11 1:52:23

He was like, Y'all can just come to Paris and we're like, yeah, we're gonna come. He's like, fuck. Well, he paid for it. He's the one who paid for them to go to Paris.

SPEAKER_07 1:52:29

Well, he paid for them to go to Paris. I think the dad always paid for them to go to Paris.

SPEAKER_11 1:52:33

That's a common misconception. The brother paid for them to go to Paris. And that's why there's a huge difference between the first movie and them going to Paris and the second movie that ends up in a motel in Miami.

unknown 1:52:47

Oh.

SPEAKER_11 1:52:49

Because it's not it's not the same credit card, it's being swiped here. Oh, so who's the cheapsteak now? Is it broken? That's why you gotta split stuff. Right. But why would he book that? We had this big ass. I don't think he knew it was a shithole. He had. I think that's I think it probably was one of those situations where like this is not what it looked like on the website. I don't know. I don't even like it. I feel like that was an easy thing back in the 90s. I feel like as a wife, I'd be like, this hotel room is$50 a night. He's like, yeah, what a deal, huh? I'm like, well, no.

SPEAKER_05 1:53:20

There's something wrong here.

SPEAKER_01 1:53:24

It's only$10 a night. He's like, well, um, I think that's a no. He's like, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_02 1:53:28

This is great.

SPEAKER_07 1:53:29

God bless them. Well, this is what blue will come out.

SPEAKER_09 1:53:32
