Welcome to our Ted Lasso talk, the Tedcast. Welcome all Greyhound fans, welcome all you sinners from the dog track and all the AFC Richmond fans around the world. It's the lasso way around these parts with Coach, coach and Boss, without further ado, coach Castleton.
Speaker 3:Welcome everybody. Hello friends, hello beautiful people we are. You're hearing a rapid reaction from Coach Bishop after watching Wayne, episode 7, the Last Forever Coach. Yeah, I'm your host, coach Castleton, and with me shaking his head in misery and dying all throughout the episode, is Coach Bishop.
Speaker 2:I don't have anything particularly clever on this one. I'm still. I'm recovering from quite a roller coaster of emotions there in episode 7. Lot went on there in episode 7. Yeah, that was a lot. We can start going through it, but holy shit, that was a lot.
Speaker 3:That was a lot. We start out in Richmond Hill and I guess we end up in Richmond Hill.
Speaker 2:Wait before we say that. You're undoubtedly noting who wasn't introduced, and so Boss is a little under the weather, not feeling well today. So we're going on talking about Wayne without Boss, but she is already missed.
Speaker 3:Yeah, boss texted us not long ago saying hey, listen, I had a real sharp pain and in my midsection and you know I just kept having trouble sitting. So you know I'm just going to take the day off. To which Coach Bishop, of course, replied hey, I don't want a big brother to you, but I feel a lot better. If you know, you checked in with your doctor or you, you know, hit an urgent care and I said you can only constrain pure evil for so long. Come on, man, like like co-auto in in. Oh shit, what was that movie? What was that movie, coach? The Schwarzenegger movie. Oh, I'm going to have to look it up.
Speaker 3:You are like alien, you know you know, an extra stressor being inside of your body can only. It'll be comfortable for so long before they they want out, especially if your boss, especially if your boss right, yeah, no, we boss, we'll miss her. We'll miss her. It won't be the same without her. It'll be happy and joyful and fun there's.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I'll be joyful. This is a dark episode, man, yeah this is okay.
Speaker 3:So this is let's, let's. Let's jump right in on this. We're covering Wayne, episode seven, in the last forever. It's interesting how, you know, we, when we finished off last time, coach, if you remember we were you know we were having a big fight, a big battle, and Bobby, you know, turned around and took on all the kids and school and that sort of thing, and Wayne was sort of in an uncertain position. He really took it, took a real beating, yeah, and we know we can take a punch, we know that, but it seemed like he I don't know he was hurting after this one.
Speaker 2:Well one of the things actually I like about this, even in terms of Wayne being able to take a punch. I mean, it's not. Oh, he's the toughest guy in the land. You punch him and he doesn't feel it.
Speaker 2:It's that he decides to absorb the pain. I mean, we met him doing that. So, yeah, he takes, you know, he takes his beating, but he is not in great shape. I mean, we talked about the fact that he barely looked like he could make it over to the bike when they took off. So it ain't good.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that was that part was rough and yeah, yeah, I'm going to pause for one second Because oh okay, no, okay, I'm not going to pause.
Speaker 3:I was going to pause for a sec, but I'm going to. Actually, I'm going to take it in from the beginning. We, we open up with Reggie. Of all people, we're in Ocala, florida. As we open up, we get a. We get a chiron, we get like a splash of the location and he is. He is the process of returning a alligator that he has bought, named peanut butter. He has named peanut butter, peanut butter will not eat and so he goes to return it. And it's this very. I'm guessing. The purpose of the scene was to show us how violent Reggie is, unlike most.
Speaker 2:go ahead, coach, you're going to say something Also dumb and I actually I'm serious about that Like it's funny that the character is as dumb as he is, but like that is a particularly dangerous combination, Somebody who is dumb and violent, and that is a specifically dangerous, and so that he wanted a gator, that he bought a gator, that he then decided to feed the gator peanut butter as one.
Speaker 2:like all, of it just sounds like this person shouldn't be in possession of an alligator. This, like none of the like. Everything's bad about this scenario. There's just nothing good about any of it, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, no, no, it is, it is. It's painful. I think he said feed, did it? Like yeah, or something like it's pretty bad.
Speaker 3:I will say that I understand the reason behind the scene. It's one of the very few Wayne scenes I don't buy. And the reason I don't buy it is because the gentleman who sold him, the alligator, who's like, do you have a receipt? No, I don't have receipt. That's because I don't give receipts, because I don't take things back, Right, and he's like I got to go, I'd like this for this to be over.
Speaker 3:When Reggie rolls up on this guy and gets right in his face, the guy doesn't back off at all and I was like, okay, I'm reading the body language and like, is this where Reggie gets whooping? Is this where we see, okay, Reggie bit the wrong dog's leg, kind of thing? And because the guy did not, he didn't feel worried about this at all. Like I'm like, does he, does he have a gun on him? Like what is it that he feels so confident in being? Like he matched Reggie's energy to the point where he was like poking Reggie in the chest with both, both hands and saying like I'd like this to be over, and Reggie, of course smiles turns around, and then you know cheap shots of the guy puts him in some water and screaming at him while he's holding him underwater.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's interesting you say I also thought what I thought was going to happen was that Reggie was going to try something right at the poking in the chest not a service I offer. Yeah, I thought Reggie was going to try something and was going to get fucked up one way or another. That's what I thought was going to happen here. And then to have Reggie just aside to punch the guy and then dunk him in that water and see him like, at least for what we got to see, that was the end of it. Now, for all we know, the next time we see these two, my man will be in possession of a shotgun and we'll feel a lot different about this. But as far as how this scene played out, I was surprised he got away with that. I also was surprised at a guy who is obviously selling animals, if not illegally, something in that direction wouldn't be more prepared for, you know, some asshole coming up and trying something.
Speaker 3:Yeah right, very good point. He was not. He also. He also he looked like a guru. He had a long gray ponytail beads and he's got a huge beard and he had this kind of kung fu energy where you're like I don't know if I want to tangle with this guy. And then he just immediately got his ass beat by a 17 year old and like mm, like a real dumb 17 year old, like you know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, there was nothing. Yeah, there was nothing clever about any of it. He just hauls back and punches them and so, yeah, I'm I. Maybe we will get some insight into that later.
Speaker 3:But when we get back to Jen's house, trish and Jenny are hammered and they are. It's such a weird dynamic here. Dell is trying to help Wayne the couch, he she dumps him on the couch, you know, just to get him over there. She got, she got like her, his arm around her, just couldn't even walk in on his own and he is in suffering and in pain. And the girls in the background are drunk, dancing and having fun. And when Dell looks at him she says like, oh my God, you get more blotchy. She pulls up a shirt and she sees that he's got gross color skin. Yeah, yeah, gross color skin, the regular color skin. We got to get through a hospital. He says no, I can't. She says well, you know what happened to my uncle. He got a splinter and thought he could put Neosporin on it and go back to right, back to being an asshole. Kind of a shock that she'd have someone in her family that's an asshole.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, no definitely.
Speaker 3:Okay, you don't imagine that. And then she says he gets an infection. And well, you know what he got for it. And you know, of course, wayne's like what? What did he get? She's like dead. He got fucking dead when we got to go to hospital. We can't, there's people looking for us. So she says to the girls hey, you guys got any ice? Like Wayne is in, he is in pain, like legit pain, yeah.
Speaker 2:And also she has been around enough violent that she knows she knows the routine. Like she's not like, oh, should I help you walk? Like she knows, like how to help him walk. She knows that he needs some ice. She know, you know what I mean. Like this is not her first rodeo and it wouldn't be with Bobby Lucetti and those brothers as her siblings, so you know what I mean. So I think part of this too is this is like a wild excursion for for our new friends. Oh, it's crazy. There was a fight, we won.
Speaker 3:We won that just kind of like oh my God, this is. This is high excitement.
Speaker 2:Yeah, this is amazing and and but this is. You know they're dealing with life Like. You know what I mean. Like this is not entertaining to Dell. She cares about everybody who has gotten their ass kicked on some level and also they're being pursued by the police and apparently, as far as they've traveled, an awful lot of people know exactly where they are.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's true. I want to point out what a, what a rare and gracious gift it is for a young girl Dell's age to know how to patch up a broken up white guy. You know, I mean, like what a, what a wonderful skill set to bequeath unto a young lady as she's getting ready for you out in the world. You're right that you read her, that she knows what to do.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, no, she's got it.
Speaker 3:Right, yeah, she knows what to do. She feels like, okay, I got it, now I got to take initiative. She has to take agency, because the guy this one happens to be Wayne, but you have a sense, it could have been her uncle who was the asshole, right, I'm sure it was Bobby the shetty, like a million times. And the boys you know, carl and Teddy. I'm sure they've had their bumps and bruises. So, yes, once once, once again, white male rage helping helping everybody out in the community, coach. And so she asked for ice and. And then Trish and Jenny don't have something. But Jenny says she's got something better. And what is it, coach?
Speaker 2:She's. She's got painkillers a bunch of really good shit that our dad got after his botched post divorce vasectomy. There's so much we have learned about this father from the pink suit and the. You know just the house in general, and the third is the is. There's a lot of information we're gathering about this.
Speaker 3:Guy receives very midlife crisis out, so they just just look at that, the beauty of that one sentence. My dad got a bunch of really good shit after his botched right post divorce vasectomy, so you get the sense. He got the divorce and was like you know what no more fucking kids.
Speaker 2:Really fuck this right, also, I'm going to be doing a lot of fucking.
Speaker 3:Yeah, right, of course right, he's gonna be hitting the town.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, no, she's. She's been holding me back. I'm about to do a ton of fucking. I better get ready.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, no, that's true. That's one of the great truisms of life is there's always a somebody better out there? Oh for sure, right, 100%, like almost a guarantee. It's pretty much a lot, it's. There are two great things in this world. One is King Arthur flower and the other one is this certainty of improving your situation Absolutely Post divorce. So anyway, he. Oh, listen, I don't want to belittle that I actually had.
Speaker 2:I improved significantly after my divorce, but, but yeah, you use the spirit with which you went back out into the world. I think is a little different than the word we're describing.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and I did my vasectomy myself. So you know there's there's a, there's that, there's a. There's a funny thing about vasectomies that have some friends who have done them and I have not. I have four kids and, as you know, as everyone listens knows, coach, what is your lovely wife say about me? That's one baby making fool, Correct. And so my friends who have had them always to a man have said the same thing, which is God damn. It hurts a lot more than you think. Like the healing process is something, yeah they.
Speaker 2:I don't know if it's just, yeah, whatever combination of pain, tolerance, understanding of the instructions, slash warnings, I don't know, but I felt I had been duped. I can say you oh, so you have had it. Yes, oh, yeah, I have. I actually have a storytelling piece on the internet where I talk about getting my vasectomy. But, yeah, I definitely felt like, yeah, I'm going to need you all to redefine discomfort.
Speaker 3:Right, right, comfort. Well, because they, they're like oh, it's a day thing, you're in and out, you know a couple of days you pop a couple Advil. Everyone I know has been, like you know, on a couch with their butt in the air, legs over the back going God help me. Oh Jesus, I'm like yeah.
Speaker 2:I've never thought to just put ice anywhere around there, but into my butt, yeah it's like this is not fun. What is happening here? Okay.
Speaker 3:I love it. So he had his post divorce vasectomy, which was botched. Which, God man, you don't wish that on anyone, Nope? And then they do a thing.
Speaker 2:This may be very uncomfortable.
Speaker 3:I know, I know it did and this is amazing. I want to talk about why I made you uncomfortable, but I want to say that with all of your coaching your real life coaching, your life coach, your coach people, your business coach you coach everybody All you do is coach and so I, as I sat watching you watch this episode, I thought I might only have this podcast, so I get to watch, to force coach to watch good TV, and then I sit here and enjoy all the sounds that come out of you Because, like you really hold up the the old stereotype of like a black eye and movie theater, like I'm never wondering what what there's no reaction no, no, you're going not.
Speaker 3:God damn why would you do that? Like, just okay, coach has a question about that, but with this one you're like, no, no, like you're very uncomfortable. Let's set the scene, Tell everybody what we're watching.
Speaker 2:Well, after she says that she's got the you know the painkillers or whatever, she gets a pillow out and goes to put it in and she says I never thought I'd say this, but put it in your mouth, which you know and which is you know that. But Wayne says I don't take pills or I don't take whatever. He makes it clear that no, no, thank you, yeah, no drugs for me, thank you, exactly. And they go to put it in his mouth and my reaction was like that, really, I guess there's a basic body autonomy conversation, right? Second of all, you motherfuckers don't know what the fuck you're doing.
Speaker 2:You're a couple drunk teenagers, right? Like I don't, like I generally wouldn't trust you to understand exactly how medicine should be administered, but certainly not now and then to be forced to take it and then, like it just all seemed dangerous I guess that's the word I would use. It just seemed dangerous to me that you know the way they were doing it. I also worried that Wayne not be like get the fuck off me, I said, and send them flying across the room. I guess that I think about it, but I was very uncomfortable with the idea of forcing somebody to take a pill they actively told you they didn't want to take.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, it's funny. It was a. It didn't hit me that way, the same way it hit you, I think, because I was too busy laughing about Dell's joke. In the middle of it they basically so Wayne is in pain, he's, he's reclining on the corner like the arm or sort of the side of the couch there, and they just go right on top of it Like we know he's in.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, no, his bruised ribs, whatever. Yeah, they're all like, yeah, leaning on him and he can't move his arms Like he wasn't pushing them away because he couldn't get his arms away from his sides to the point where he's raising his chin like a baby or a dog.
Speaker 3:Right trying to avoid them getting access to his mouth. And Dell says what here?
Speaker 2:coach Guys, maybe we can like wrap it in cheese or some shit, which I was like oh my God, that's what you do for a dog or like a horse. That's the I'm like it's so Maybe you could put it in a puppy treat.
Speaker 3:I was like, wow, that is like that's not what you say about a guy that you consider, you know, your personal Hamlet, like she's like, oh, he's like basically an animal, right, you know. But she wasn't fazed at all about she, was like, oh, he should have this. Yeah, what's the best way to get it? To force feed it. If the roles were reversed and this is a guy, two guys yeah, that's stroke. We would be. Yeah, you would be out of your chair. This would be an outrage. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:No for sure, and I think I actually did have that thought as well. Like this, this only doesn't seem absolutely terrifying horrifying all the words because of the gender dynamic.
Speaker 3:I never thought I'd say this, but I really miss boss for this drug conversation because she would I'm certain that she would weigh in and say like, hey, man, like whenever I want ever, I'm being boss now I want everyone to have drugs.
Speaker 3:The more drugs the better as far as I'm concerned. But like you get to pick, yeah, somebody else doesn't like get to pick for you, that's right. I think that would be her take, that's right. I will offer that. My experience with drugs, limited as I as I admit it is, I think there are maybe drug senseis in the world, like I remember when I wanted to smoke weed for the first time and I had gotten through and you know sort of high school where I think I mentioned my high school was all was one or two things. There's jocks and druggies and that's how we split up and I was like no, I'm a jock, but the jocks were so boring to hang out with, my God. So I hung out with the druggies but I didn't do drugs, so it kind of wasn't in fully with the druggies, but I definitely wasn't in fully with the jock.
Speaker 3:You know, it was just sort of this weird nebulous middle ground. But I remember when I wanted to try weed for the first time in college, there was this guy on the floor and his nickname was doobage, and so I went to doobage. He was a good dude and I said, hey, can you kind of walk me through? And he's like I'll take a carry. And then he proceeded to take care of me like a mother hen and I don't know if I stopped smoking for two straight weeks. I think I was like yep, let's continue this. And but the whole time he was like he couldn't. He told me, okay, like I remember we were, it was like the second or third time, you know I tried it and somebody came in and gave weed to us and he was like, oh, listen, make sure you thank them for smoking you down. You know all these different. And I was like, oh, there's like this protocol to it. You know what I mean. And like I thought it was like super cool. And I'm like, okay, maybe there was also a neighbor I had when I got my wisdom teeth out. I was suffering. I had four impacted teeth and I was suffering and he was like a. He was like a Bobby Luchetti kind of guy, but a good guy, the best guy ever, but but a real hard ass like Boston Tough guy, right. Like his idea of a good time was going and picking a fight, which I don't, I'll never understand, but he was, he was great to me and and he said I was like, oh man, I'm dying.
Speaker 3:I was like sitting by the we live on a lake I was sitting by the water and I was just suffering how many of them progress that they give you? And I was like I don't know, you know I didn't count him, you know, but I can take one, you know half of one every six hours. And he laughed and he was like, don't do that guy. He's like, come here and he sat me down at a picnic table. He gave me two full-purchase. He's like, take two of these two and drink two beers. And I was like, okay, I blindly trusted him and I took two first out and had two beers and I didn't feel a thing and it was happy the rest of the day and sat, just kind of sat at the picnic table looking at the, at the lake, and it was heaven, and I'm like he somehow knows that.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and even to this day I wouldn't know, I would still be nervous, I'd be like, oh I don't know, maybe let's just check the dosages I better get on WebMD. And he was like. He was like guy, no, no, no, you're gonna be in pain. Like, don't let doctors, don't know shit. You know, it's like one of those guys I'm like. So when I saw this I guess I sort of defaulted to thinking okay, you know what these are. His, these are Wayne's drug senseis. Right, he doesn't want it, but he needs they know better, he does need it.
Speaker 2:He needs something. But yeah, I mean he's, and they can't go to hospital, like he said. They're looking for us. Blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, anyway, I love that you had that reaction, protective reaction you like really had it, you were like oh, no, no, no no.
Speaker 2:Physically, like I was cringing and they pry his mouth open. They pry Also. There's the energy of people who are just drunk. I mean like, because it's different than high, it's different than whatever, and there's that drunk like, they're still in like woo, find a bone. You know what I mean? Yes, and Wayne and Dell are. If they ever had any of that energy going on, they certainly don't now. And so there's the like, there's also that difference. So this is like an extension of the good times, kind of in a weird way for them, like the party has not ended. For them, absolutely no, no, god no. And so, yeah, there's also that energy to it. But yeah, as a rule, kids, let's not force pills down each other's folks.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, that's a good. That's a good starting premise. They finally get down Wayne's throat. Jenny says you're going to thank me for those later. Dell's like Jesus, jenny like, because she's like Wayne's.
Speaker 2:Yeah, she says good job, or whatever. Good boy, yeah, good boy. Packs him on his ribs. Like a dog.
Speaker 3:Oh God she's. And then on their way out to signify that the party is still going on, she says by the way, if you guys want to hook up or anything, it's totally fine, because I won't hear anything, because I'll have these giant ear muffs on my ears, otherwise known as Jenny's thighs.
Speaker 2:Okay, Like, that answer is mine, Because I know before. I was like are they really? Are they just letting people believe they are? So that was like oh, okay, Well, I guess we're a fish.
Speaker 3:Let me just make a close my eyes and picture what that means. Okay, got it. So now. Now it's interesting because one of the weird things about New England. I talk about how New England's full of meanest people in the world and I've been all over the world and never seen their like or are like, as I am one of them, sadly. But the interesting distinction is as quick to violence and as loud mouthy and as obnoxious as we can be, we are still rooted in the puritanical ethic and so there is a prudishness and something about sexual conversations are unacceptable. So when she says this Dell's like oh yeah, we're good, thanks, I think we're good.
Speaker 2:Yeah. Yeah, it was the laughter of, like, the audacity of saying it, but also like, all right, thanks for telling me there was a bit of. I didn't need to know that.
Speaker 3:Yeah, just not not an acceptable conversation piece. Yeah it's interesting.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you're more likely to hear a sexual reference as part of a threat. Yeah, and you are right to talk honestly about like, hey, if you guys want a little privacy, you know what it would be like. Oh, oh, jesus Christ, oh good, over here. Like it's funny, because Juliana shared with me this, I got to look it up. I'll put it in the community page. It's a woman. Oh, she's so talented. She does situations like oh, here's the bridal shower and here's the. We're going to the ball game for the first time or we're going to go to, you know, the parent teacher conference. But she does it changing her voice every time as women from different parts of the country and in very and she's amazing. I should, I should look her up, but I'll put it on the community site. It's really amazing. She hits it, you know. So it's like the LA woman. And then there's the Midwest. I just sent it in our, in our group text the other day to boss when she was doing the woman that was doing that Midwestern accent.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, total aside, but for some reason Instagram would not let me get to that video. I try to choose it. It would take me to something else. I was like oh yeah.
Speaker 3:I hate that.
Speaker 2:Why is that happening?
Speaker 3:The reason I bring her up is whenever she does a woman from Boston, it's like the person. So it'll be like there was one where they were getting dressed up for they're going to a wedding and shows what all the different women wear and they all approach it differently and the invariably, whenever she does a Boston woman, her reaction to any woman from anywhere else in the country doesn't matter New York, palm Beach, dallas. She does all these different characters Chicago. The Boston woman is always like are you fucking kidding me? Like everything is this. You're like oh, my God, it's such a limited scope of you. Know, it's like you can't put up with you know. You're like, oh, you fucking say like it reminds me of your, your talk about George Carlin and how everybody on the road is, either what is it?
Speaker 2:A lunatic or an idiot?
Speaker 3:Yeah Right, If they go slower than you, they're an idiot. Clearly, If they're going faster than you, they're a lunatic. And that's the purview that people from New England look at the world with. Like we have a, we have a slut is how we. We're comfortable inside this narrow little path and if you're anywhere outside of it, like Trish just, was totally unacceptable.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, it's also there's something and they did a good job with Trish and Jenny and in creating this, there's a, there's a way of being as a teenager where you're almost cosplaying adulthood, right, yes, right. So like we're so mature that, like we drink alcohol and we have sex, we're totally grown up and it's very, it's a very interesting energy and they very much have it, whereas Wayne and Dell really have been forced into brands of adulthood in their like as kids, so they don't have to play at it. They don't have, they don't need any signifiers that they can handle things or that they're so grown up because, like, yeah, they're fucking grown up, like both of these human beings only eat because they are resourceful. That's how they eat?
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's how they sleep, that's how they move around. Yeah, no for sure. Yeah, yeah, jenny and Trish love this because it's the most fun thing that happened in Richmond Hill, south Carolina, and people will be talking about this for years, you know. Yeah, so we pivot to. Wayne falls asleep. We do a nice. There's a nice beautiful shot where we pull back and watch Dell, sort of watching Wayne, and then we cut to her waking up in the in the in the bathroom. She slept in the tub and what does she wake up?
Speaker 2:here to coach. She wakes up to Wayne probably a bit close to her face, to be honest, and he's obviously been watching her sleep for some amount of time, whether it was a second or an hour, and he says good morning. His face is uncharacteristically relaxed is what I would say and I immediately knew where we were going. So I'm curious if, when you first watched this, you knew what him covering in the focus was telling us, because I immediately was like oh he is high.
Speaker 3:Yes, 100%, they did a great job. There's an extreme close up, and when I say extreme close up, usually when you say that you go oh, it's the top of the head to the no, no, no, it is chin to forehead. You don't get that. Yeah, that's how close we are and it's a wide lens.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so the depth of field like his shoulder behind his face is out of focus. So it's that the depth of field. Is that Right? So you really are like boom his face, yep.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and she does not pick up on it right away. No, she's. Why are you looking at me like that? He blinks very slowly, like a very slow blank. Like what. And he says like what? And she says what.
Speaker 2:Like you want to roll me up in a fucking rug, which one is a very funny line, but also it's sort of it again speaks to her life experience. Like that is not what I saw on his face. I did not see serial killer or any kind of killer on it. But like to her, you're being weird, you're maniac. Like it's not, like well, it's a, it's a threat, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you know what I mean. Like yeah, yeah, yeah. Threat analysis.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so it's really interesting. That's where she goes automatically, even as a reference, is like you look like someone's going to kill me and I'm just happy to see, I'm just happy to see you. He asked why she's in a tub. Reasonable question. I couldn't sleep with Jenny and Trish going at it all night, so you know that they followed through on what they had to say. I swear. I think I heard Jenny say she lost her tooth in the middle of it, which I've shared before is the kind of joke I never tire of because it just makes whoever's hearing the joke fill in. Whatever insanity would happen in your brain, right? So I think you know what I mean, and so I don't know what sequence of events could cause one to lose a tooth, or sound like then losing a tooth, or say something similar to I've lost a tooth. But whatever it is, it's crazy. And that captured all the crazy of the night, right there, right, I saw it. Anyway, I never bore of that.
Speaker 3:You said out loud, like what the hell does that mean? Did I say it yeah? Right out of you said it out loud. What the hell does that?
Speaker 2:mean Lost a tooth, yeah, so that's yeah, that's a very interesting sound here he.
Speaker 3:You know his voice is a little different here too, coach.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's very soft and Anyway, and the intensity we've always gotten from him.
Speaker 2:From the first moment we met him getting off a bike throwing rocks through a window. We've never seen a placid version of Wayne. He says you're pretty. So his guard is totally down. Now he's saying his thoughts, so that's always interesting. And then she stops. What's pretty is what gets her and she goes wait a sec. And she goes you're high as shit. And she's kind of a little bit excited, like it's funny. Now Like oh, this is the adventure we're on. Yeah, yeah, your high is fucked, and go back and forth. So in come Jenny and Trish. Jenny's dad is here. Wayne and I love things like this, where we set things in motion and it's the complication is further complicated by the thing that's already set in motion. So Jenny and Trish gave Wayne the drugs. Wayne is now forced him to do that. Wayne is now high. Now Jenny's dad is home and Wayne's reaction because he's feeling good about everything on God's green earth is I should introduce myself, yeah, so here we go.
Speaker 2:So shush, shush, shush. I should do Wayne do fucking not from tell. He says don't open the door. He does open the door. She says I'm putting in a tampon.
Speaker 3:Right, she tries to get to buy time, right, yeah.
Speaker 2:So she's mad out of a room I'm putting in a tampon is pretty foolproof. So she says don't open the door. Of course he does open the door. So this man gets to see a boy with no pants on in his wedding shirt next to his daughter who's facing away from him pulling her pants up, and she has panties on. So let's meet dad.
Speaker 3:This is ideal. It's a subjective point of view from the dad, because the camera's actually tilted down.
Speaker 2:We don't need to, we don't need to. We just see the heads or faces. Yeah, this is all about everyone's in underwear is basically the message of this shot.
Speaker 3:And then what happened to?
Speaker 2:you All right. So, sir, I'm Wayne. It's an honor. He reaches out and he's so high, like his depth perception, or whatever is no good. His hand hits the man's chest so and dad immediately like chuckles and smiles and immediately I realized he's just happy, it's a boy. Yes, well, hey young man, like I could, I thought for a minute like oh, this guy's gonna go get his gun.
Speaker 3:And well, that's the natural right. If he's a popular Chetty, we're in trouble Right.
Speaker 2:Right, we got a problem. So well, you must be Jenny's boy. Relief, relief, relief. Look at Jenny Like boy. This is bad, she's processing, yeah, and then he says it. So if there's any doubt as to what just is what is transpiring here, you're a boy and you just see the relief. Jenny's dad laughs. And then we were thanks for letting me stay here in your really nice home. We're still on the rails, though he clearly did not let him stay there, although, if I'm being honest, I went upstairs in the nighttime and ate a bunch of your sandwich meats, and for that I'm sorry. He's like oh God, please, no filter, please stop talking, stop talking, yeah, please stop talking. And he says oh.
Speaker 3:Wait for those people who don't know, who aren't watching along with us. Dell and Trish are hiding in the corner. There's nobody. It's like a bathroom, and they're hiding behind the shelf. So the only people that at this point, that the dad can see are Wayne and Jen.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they're barely being blocked. I mean, if the man really just sort of looked around and he'd see them. But they're not, just they're huddled. Trish has got her arm around Dell, dell's holding onto that arm. Trish's other hand is on top of Dell's. I mean they look like you know they are afraid. It's not just hiding, it is, oh dear God, right. So, dad, lunch meats I could give a shit about. Oh no, no, think nothing of it. I want to thank you for taking my daughter to the dance. It is morning, yeah, so whoa, I mean, you're welcome here. He is so happy right now that there's some heterosexuality going on that nothing, literally nothing else matters, right? He's basically just said anytime you want to come by and screw my child, you feel? Free yeah.
Speaker 3:Basically the message here and we talk about how Trish and Jenny are, you know, sort of role-playing, cosplaying adulthood. Jenny, this is not a conversation she wants to have right away. When she sees half your dad, she puts her arm, her hand on Wayne, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:She's like rubbing his shoulder. She's like, oh yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3:This is totally my guy.
Speaker 2:Can't wait to get some more sex from him. Yep. And then, oh no sir, this is Wayne. Oh no sir, your daughter and the lesbian girlfriend friend Not only says that, but he looked over to the hiding spot as they went to the dance to the gather, cos they're lesbians. In case you didn't catch that in the first part of the sentence, I went with my friend Del. Dad has been gut punched. And then Wayne finishes up I want my friend Del. We're not lesbians, but any ex-hails. Yeah, it was an honor, sir, and no one's in trouble because dad is too crushed.
Speaker 2:Dad is too crushed by the fact that wait, your penis wasn't in my daughter. That means she actually is the lesbian I feared she was. And dad just drifts back upstairs, crestfallen, and that's the end of that Amazing scene. Amazing.
Speaker 3:I mean James Madge plays Jenny's dad. He does such a good job of going from delight to. He doesn't even say bye to Wayne Once he hears him, it's like he's in a coma.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, because it's all his fears realized. Right, he is terrible as that, whatever we can get in that conversation.
Speaker 3:Well, no, I want to say, we don't want to make light of this, because this is a brutal situation.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and people suffer within all the time.
Speaker 2:Yes, yes, but you know I love that Jenny's like sell it, sell it, oh God, we might get out of this and then we cut. So we cut to Dell and Trish sort of untangling, but also like what the fuck just happened and we cut back to.
Speaker 3:Trish bangs her head against the closet door.
Speaker 2:We are so busted like no more sleepovers for us. And then we cut back to a shot of placid faced Wayne, still sort of gazing to where dad was, and Jenny says, did you just out me to my fucking dad? Which again is not funny in a real world way, but was funny in the context of the show. Anyway, part of why it was funny for me was everyone had a hand in making this happen the way it happened. Yeah Right, so it's sort of just chaos.
Speaker 3:Well, again we're not saying like, oh, she deserved to be outed to her father because she gave him drugs.
Speaker 3:But it started off a sequence of events that this show particularly does a good job of making comical. So we switched over to now we're in the hospital. We get a shot of the show. It's like a Mexican soap opera that is playing up on the screen. It's one of those rooms where there's a shared room with a curtain in the middle but one TV. So we start on this Hispanic family that looks like the dad is in bed and there's a lot of family and friends around him, including a little girl, which is significant.
Speaker 3:Yeah, beautiful little girl and the family, the countenance, the faces of the people around the debt. They're all happy, they're all nice, they're all friendly, right.
Speaker 2:Lot of love there.
Speaker 3:Lot of love, lot of love and we talk about how the show just casually mixes diversity and it's like, yeah, okay, this is. You have this very interesting commentary, because we have this happy Hispanic family and then the camera. We do a little track tracking shot or dolly shot over to the other side of the curtain, the wrong side of the tracks, as it were, where you got three Trump voters. I mean, it's like the thing is, sean Simmons is white, but if he wasn't, the depiction of this family would be like a war crime, because you're like you know what I mean? You're just like, oh my God, these are the most disgusting white people, they are, they're terrible.
Speaker 3:I mean, they are Bobby Luchetti is he is. He is like if filth could talk.
Speaker 2:Oh no, it's horrible. It's each sentence more deplorable, more disgusting than the last. It's unbelievable. He is a utter contemptible gutter trash, so he's trying to figure out what's going on in this show and he asked what the Horry one said.
Speaker 3:Like, just like he's not even angry right now.
Speaker 2:This is just how he talks in life. Horry is like a word.
Speaker 3:Yeah, the Horry one with the mustache in the hat. And then the boys, the boys clean it up for, or clear it up for him. And what do they?
Speaker 2:say. They said the old white ball fuck will always have our heart. That's nice.
Speaker 3:This is good. Yeah, that's nice. This is a good family bonding Like watching a Disney movie. Yeah, of course.
Speaker 2:I'll bet she's banging that guy with the boat. I don't know what this story is, but this telling of it is unbelievable. And so, yes, we are in the hospital. Bobby Luchetti is definitely worse for wear, as they say His forehead stitches right, cheek stitches left, eyebrow bandage over nose bandage wrapped around head in a way that's almost like three Stooges brand of you know in the hospital, and the arm is wrapped up as well.
Speaker 3:So probably some stuff going on there.
Speaker 2:He's a mess.
Speaker 3:He's not that far, Like if you said, hey, let's do a film where a dead person comes back to life. He's not that far. No, he's a hop skip and a jump. He's got veins showing in his face. Yeah, reanimated. Yeah yeah, yeah, he is repugnant to look at and Dean Winters is a handsome man, so they did a nice job. You know?
Speaker 3:these are all the most fun roles to play. Yeah, exactly, they're all the most fun roles to play when you get to be this unbridled. And there's this old adage in film industry like the guys that play the worst people are usually the best people. Right, right, right. And the guys that play the best people are usually the worst people. And I was trying to think through that and I was like, yeah, you know a lot of truth in.
Speaker 2:that Makes sense.
Speaker 3:So also a commentary on lest we forget how good the writing is. I bet she's banging that guy with the boat. The perspective of victimhood that is pervasive with the luchettis, you know, like someone's always out to get you always something.
Speaker 2:Right right, right right.
Speaker 3:Nothing can just be straight up. Someone's always out to get you and you're a fool if you're not suspicious of everyone and everything. So yeah, he says what's the next one here? The?
Speaker 2:fucking rack on her, though, right, and I mean full voice doesn't even capture how they're talking and they very much are aware of these people right next to them. So again, just one. You're talking to your sons and, like you know, my son is an adult. But I don't envision any time really ever, but certainly not now that I'm going to turn to my son and talking about some woman, say the fucking rack on her, though, right, like what? What is this? This is this, but this is how they live Anyway yeah, no.
Speaker 3:Well, it's right. In the way person handbook you just got, a projectification of women is page page 11. And so it's so. It is so brutal, but the boys react in tandem by doing what coach?
Speaker 2:They both put their hands like in front of their chest, like to pantomime breasts, as one does, and right off of that we have Geller and J walk in and Bobby, of course, is a charmer and says oh, jesus Christ, what was it? What do you call them? These two bozos, miss Lucia? These fucking knob jobs are bozos would have been way too clean. No, no, no, no jobs. Let me guess the two of you jumped in your, into your smart car, right which is funny because he would hate smart cars and then you drove down here as fast as you could, just to tell me that you didn't find my daughter again, right? He's then corrected Uh, go, let them know, nissan Leaf's are, which I laughed out loud because I don't think that that clarification is going to change how Bobby sees all of this. But okay, at least we clarified it. He says, and Bobby says what? And he goes is that a car? That's a car, he asks his kids. It's a fucking ferry, car for fucking ferries.
Speaker 3:Is there a car?
Speaker 2:Yeah, car also is that too, I mean Jesus Right. Have they said anything that wasn't offensive? They?
Speaker 3:are I mean this is what I'm saying the representation of this family of white people is they are. So they are just crude and just unabashedly offensive.
Speaker 2:Everything that comes out of their mouth is offending someone, I mean my God, so yeah, so it's a fucking ferry car for fucking ferries. Okay, so we go in.
Speaker 3:You love this line.
Speaker 2:This killed me. If 151 miles per battery charge makes me a ferry, then fit me for a pair of wings. So that broke me. I laughed. It wasn't just like, oh, I'm taking in the show, we're going to discuss this. That broke me. That he was like yeah, 151 miles per charge sound like something. A ferry with that, I mean, it was great.
Speaker 3:Well, I'm like how are these people both from Brockton, you know it's like, these are both like, even in jest, the response from Carl and Teddy is like yeah, no, that doesn't. First of all, I don't understand what you said. One Fit me for a pair of wings, like I don't even understand what you're saying.
Speaker 2:I think you're okay with it.
Speaker 3:And that makes you a ferry. And they're not. Look at the disapproving.
Speaker 2:look Well, no one would ever embrace being called a ferry. Like they can't even process like where do you go next with this conversation? What's great, though, is all from there. Looks to each other like what is very juicy. Is Jay looking at them like I don't get it either and shaking his head?
Speaker 3:That was my favorite part of it. Coach made me rewind because Jay, just Jay's also. Like I don't know man, like I don't. That's not the response I would have given either. Like I don't get this guy.
Speaker 2:But so far we go. Go now and following up on last night's events, when you was savaged by the school children Whoa, whoa, whoa, you know what? Slow your fucking roll ginger. Now, I think it's great that Bobby Luchetti is definitely going to have to set the record straight, because there's no getting around the fact that there was a fight. He was in a fight, there were some high schoolers in the fight and somebody's in a hospital bed, and it ain't none of the teenagers. So we got to, we got to figure out how we're going to tell this story. So there was like 50 of those little fucking shits running.
Speaker 3:Well, it's a slow your roll ginger, yeah, which is great, he can't even like say hold on a second without offending.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, no, he's got it because he's got red hair and and that actually weirdly which we, which you don't see very often that there was an insert shot of Geller reacting to that, where he was like like right there, that one moment where he's like really didn't like, didn't like that like, didn't like that one. He's been called a lot by Bobby Luchetti but I don't think he like, I think he like ginger, the least weird, and he says nobody beat me up, what does he say here, coach it was like 50 of those little fucking shits running all over the place which you know.
Speaker 2:Okay, like little people, but not that type of little. I love. We're going to clean that up now. That's what we're going to clean up, but okay.
Speaker 3:Yeah right, yeah, still very, very powerful. Not very big, but powerful in large numbers. Teddy adds.
Speaker 2:And Bobby says what here? You know, I blame you for this. This is your fucking fault, right, yeah?
Speaker 2:And then that's, that's great, I've known guys in at least the direction of a Bobby Luchetti, and I blame you. That's like a thing, like to say to somebody I blame you, like some shit's going down and it's like it's the like if you had never blah, blah, blah, none of this shit would have ever happened. It's built into I blame you. And so, daddy, you were right, the hat lady is begging the guy in the boat. So we're back to gazing. We're in a conversation, but I got to catch you up on what's going on in the Spanish movie, with misunderstanding and then unbelievable, and then he, then Bobby's, got to take control. So you go down into the hallway and you find that fucking nurse lady with the goddamn side burns Sideburns, what and find me some fucking morphine and you get it. Now, the both of you, and then, of course, these two idiots both try to move their wheelchairs at the same time, so they're tangled and not able to move. Get the fuck out of that wheelchair.
Speaker 3:Bobby says but they're in wheelchairs, not cause they're injured, just cause they took the place to sit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's a place for them each to sit and I'm all right, I'm going geez. All right, Mr Luceti Geller, listen to me, you fucking British dipshit which now I'm just like what is happening.
Speaker 3:That one was the one for me that that felt like a fine wine. That because he is like moderately articulate he's got to be British like what? Just cause he doesn't speak, every third word is not fuck you fucking.
Speaker 2:British dipshit.
Speaker 3:So okay, listen to me, you fucking British dipshit. I love that.
Speaker 2:And then Jay asks Jay, is really like trying to keep you British, which that may be. Laugh. If you, bobby, if you're done your job, I wouldn't be tracking my kidnapped daughter all over the goddamn country. Excuse me, I'm sitting in a fucking hospital bed. Geller, now pipe down. All right, if you want to find your daughter. Sharing information is only going to work to your advantage. Yeah, I have to hold on a second here, though, because, bobby, he has a fascinating like I'm actually serious about this he has a fascinating way of processing what's going on, right Cause all the insanity he does he's got to do, cause the rest of you are fucking up, yeah.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, he's the only one that's got a line on anything. That understands the goddamn thing.
Speaker 2:Everybody's an idiot, yep, and he like that. He that his take on why Dell ran off with a boy she'd met 15 minutes earlier and all of this, and why he's missing part of his nose and why he got the shit kicked out of him and why he's in this hospital bed and all the things is that they fucked up because they couldn't find Dell in time, like that's. That's some total of what's going on here, yep Wow, everything wouldn't.
Speaker 3:would be totally fine if the government didn't take so much of my money, coach.
Speaker 2:There you go, there you go, and so, all right, we should share the information. So there are people next door, you know, living their lives, being a loving family, but Bobby definitely clocks it All right. Okay, yeah, all right, come here. So he leans in Geller.
Speaker 3:Lee, were you worried about violence here at all? I did, I was.
Speaker 2:I thought he was going to like bite him or do something really insane yeah, because what condition to expect violence?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was scared here. And then tell you what you can start your job by filing through and checking out how many. So he starts screaming now how many visitors you're allowed to have in this fucking hospital, because I'm pretty sure it's not fucking 12. Now there are five people there and I'm sure they're not allowed to have five people, but sweet Jesus man. So we've got covering of the little girl's ears by what I'm assuming is our mom or some woman in the family. One of the guys turds with his face completely crinkled, like what is happening, and then we cut to Jay who says damn, he went the other way with that one. Not that what, like? There's such chaos in this show, it's just chaos. Let me know what it's happened and then but he did, he did, he really did.
Speaker 3:I was like you know what?
Speaker 2:I didn't see that coming and let me know if you think of anything helpful. Mr Luchetti Geller trying to maintain some level of decency, Somebody in this fucking white shit box? Oh, wait, wait, but what?
Speaker 3:is it? Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Why don't you go fuck yourself, as one says? That's what he says to the pop A dude.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, I've been your fun farewell in Luchetti style. Yeah, why don't you go fuck yourself? Fuck yourself, okay. The guy has driven to South Carolina.
Speaker 2:To try to find his child.
Speaker 3:His child that he drove out, because he's an absolute psychopath and yeah, the thanks he gets is yeah, why don't you go fuck yourself? Okay, so, yeah, so that from some fucking white shit box Get me some fucking drugs or a fucking drink, something, and it's just so after they go, after they go around the corner, we're hearing Bobby as if we can hear him clear as day when we're in, we're over by the reception desk.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and he's like he's in some rooms away.
Speaker 3:Yeah, he starts, he starts. They don't have the subtitles on here. Yeah, but he says we're in Georgia or we're in in South Carolina or whatever Richmond Hill yeah. So, Georgia, and and he says, you know, somebody should be able to get me some crack, crack. What the fuck he's like, because, on top of being clearly, he's with having withdrawals from he's not in a good way. He's not in a good way. He chooses to also be just like, just straight up racist while he's at it, which is always really nice.
Speaker 2:So, yeah, so he's shouting, shouting, shouting. We go over to the nurses station. You know they, they, they comment on. You know what a lovely guy he is. Gala says I've seen worse we get. What's the status of his injuries? A couple of broken bones, collapsed lung, not clinging to life or anything. So you know, not great, but he'll be fine. At least he's from out of town. I don't have to put up with any visitors. A lot of times the only people who visit assholes are other assholes, yeah.
Speaker 3:Makes sense. And you made, you made noise at that line. You're like huh, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 2:Like, yeah, it felt like two things to me the writer and me because we're looking at the way we are said that that line's there for a reason. So, okay, like I was like that's a very specific choice to make for that nurse to say that. But also, just thinking about it, there is like a birds of a feather kind of thing, like I remember being told like you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, and while that may not be exactly true, like a lot of things in life, it's enough of a rule that I think you can start there.
Speaker 3:And so we spend a lot of time with boss coach.
Speaker 2:That's not a lot. I would describe as bringing up my average. I think you might describe as bringing down your every brain down everybody's average.
Speaker 3:My apologies to all of you who listen to this. You're spending a lot of time with us and we can only be lowering your curve but but, yeah.
Speaker 2:So I thought okay, yeah, that makes sense, let's see how this plays out. And you see that hit Geller too, and so has anybody come to see him since he's been here, not that she's seen. And Geller keeps thinking, and now he's got an idea. All right, thanks guys. Meanwhile, jay has grabbed a tray with some hospital soup and is you know, of course, got to got to make sure his couple is a following. So he's got this cup.
Speaker 2:You know his cup of soup there, copper soup. Excuse me, so I'm about to make a star out of this. Chicken and stars soup, Really.
Speaker 3:I mean. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:And Geller says I don't know. I know I laughed out loud at that. I definitely reacted to that Like Geller's. Like what? So it's great? Like everybody's crazy is ratcheting up here and like it's causing all the misfires. Like why are you still paying attention to this crazy detail of his goofy soup? And Geller still doing this wild goose chase? And Bobby is down the hallway screaming at the top of his lungs about all the drugs he wants to mighty bring him. So but Geller continues on his path.
Speaker 2:Your father, where you told me you two didn't exactly have the best for you. How you said it. You told me you two didn't exactly have the most smooth sailing relationship. There you go, my pops. You could definitely say that if he wasn't beaten on me, he was beaten on my sisters. Son of a bitch was mean all the way to his grave. So no love loss there. I love him. He was a pain in the ass but I still miss him every fucking day. We put process that. He's still my pops. Geller's still processing and he turns and we move in a little bit as Claire is thinking and he turns to the cop who was at the nurse's station. Hey, sarge, you got a moment.
Speaker 2:So, whatever, whatever was was brewing is coming together and he's ready to enlist Sarge with with this. We cut to a high angle shot, looking down at a King Conan comic book, what appears to be a jug, a liter or so of orange juice and a 25 cent bag of snacks. Looks like pretzels, but there's something else in there. But at any rate, breakfast champions. We cut to behind the counter. Wayne's there counting money.
Speaker 2:It's Wayne shopping and Dell pops up from under the counter with a long licorice which he is interested in buying, plops that down. Come on, this licorice is huge, it'll last forever. She's definitely selling him on the idea. I don't think it's got good for you, stuff in it like vitamins and all that. So he's trying. He at least thinks they should be doing it like orange juice and pretzels. So that takes a turn and we can see the woman behind the counter is like what is this conversation? Yeah, what's happening? Yeah, pretzels don't got vitamins. I'm pretty sure they do. Wayne responds to which Dell says right, pretzel vitamins, because she's just always smart ass. And then she takes the licorice which she's now draped around her neck, plops it down on top of the Conan comic. No big licorice, I got a piss wicked you pick, so she's done. She's done her selling job. It's up to. A lady behind the counter probably doesn't hear people talk about pissing wicked on a regular basis, not every day.
Speaker 2:No, she seems to react to that lovely language.
Speaker 3:And that was I have not heard that. I will say I've not heard. Oh really, I'd say wicked bad. I would hear I'm not. I would say I'm not a somebody who uses wicked all the time. But but I've heard wicked. I got a piss wicked bag. I got a piss wicked hat. I got a piss wicked something. I've never heard I got a piss wicked. That I've never heard. I got a wicked as a standalone measure of the amount of yeah. Yeah, it's mostly like it means you know tremendously of something. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 3:By the way, the, the. There's no lines for the, for the clerk, but she's got amazing facial expressions and she, just she like, looks at their stuff. They literally had her standstill, look at the items and look back up at them and that was enough. And, like she, she conveyed disbelief and like you're, like that is I mean, that's just good acting, it's just it's excellent.
Speaker 2:I'm with her cause I'm like yeah, oh no, you're, you're right, this is bonkers. What the hell's going on here? And then finally but I expect this is Dell but I expect you to have big pretzel vitamin muscles when I come back. So she's just like pretzel vitamins. Get the fuck out of here. Give me a break, I'll take this and the rest in gas. He puts aside the comic and the licorice and keeps the pretzels and the orange juice Very. Take the cannolis. And then we have the TV. Police are trying to understand why a group of teenagers from a local high school transformed into a violent angry mob, leaving one Boston man clinging to life. Now, it's interesting because we just heard that he was very much not clinging to life.
Speaker 2:No, he was still ruining everybody else's life coach and then we have our serge. We don't have all the details as to what role the victim one, bobby Luchetti, played in the incident, but we are looking for thoughts and prayers because, well, it could go either way. So we're being convinced that this could go poorly. So there are unconfirmed reports of two other victims who were also, and we get the licorice being slid into what's going to be purchased and Wayne says I'll also take the licorice cut to Dell coming out of a disgusting gas station bathroom Someone who's been in one knows it could be disgusting beyond anything that any of us wants to discuss Jesus, it smells like everything died in there, which is great, not something. Everything died in there and we've got licorice. What's this Licorice? Okay, so we're on the bike.
Speaker 2:We're ready to go. I know, but why? He says you wanted it. So she says huh, you are a gentleman, so we're having a little fun. You did this for me. Isn't this sweet and cute? You got me the sweet candy I wanted. She gets on the back of the bike.
Speaker 3:He's ready to pull off. Now wait, a second Coach. I saw this as a real like he dodged a bullet here because she did not expect him to get the licorice Right. But she has enough of a lock on him that she thought you know what, he's not going to get that licorice. But she was very pleasant. She came out, she was very Boston. She was very disgusted and as soon as she saw it there was a gift for her. She was like huh, yeah, like a tone, change her voice, change her physicality, change. You are a gentleman Like wow, deep down in there, like something clicked Right. And we're like I was like, oh crap, nothing clicked.
Speaker 2:He really would have gotten rid of the licorice, but yeah, so you see, you go in front of the bike so you can see Wayne's face. You see Dell, you know, over his shoulder with the helmet on and you can see him weighing. I should say something. And she asks we going? He starts the engine to go. They go maybe two yards. I wish pointy stops. She asks is that all two bucks gets you being funny? That's a good joke, it's a good. It's a good joke, that's good yeah.
Speaker 3:Is that all two bucks gets you like 10 feet or whatever. I was with her, I was like okay.
Speaker 2:And then he's looking, she's trying to figure out what's going on, and so what? And finally he says your dad's in the hospital. How do you know? She asks. I saw him on the news in the store. It must be real bad, I guess. They're asking people to pray and stuff. So and we now, tied on music starts, we're now tied on Dell. Fuck them, that's strong. Yeah, that's the first reaction is fuck them, fuck them Right, Like he and you know, in a way, he she's Bobby's, she's Bobby's child in that moment. That's right. Right.
Speaker 2:I just like that's what he raised her to be. Music's still going all right. And he said I got to say goodbye to my dad. I'm just thinking it might be good, you know, for you. You know I'm not saying that he's well, you know he might be. And what I love about that piece of dialogue is he says absolutely nothing and he says everything with it. Yeah, he says you didn't get to say goodbye to your mother and I know that was a big deal. I know what it was to lose my father. You may be losing your father and I know he was Bobby Luchetti, but he was still your father and you might want to go say goodbye. I mean, like he doesn't say any of that, but he says all of that, plus I care about you, yeah, within the context of all that rambling.
Speaker 3:It's not my call to make. I can't just drive on and pretend like now that I have this information. It's got to be up to you and you know. I want to point out that. Just you know the tremendous acting by Sarah Bravo here, where she absorbs this and processes it. She doesn't say a word After. She says fuck him, it's all Wayne doing the talking, and the facial expressions, how she's processing this. She locks up her jaw, she's you know. It's just really interesting how she processes that excellent acting.
Speaker 2:I have to say right here, I thought they were going to leave.
Speaker 3:Oh really.
Speaker 2:I thought they might leave. I didn't know what then, but I thought that she might. I felt that she might decide look, what's done is done. She said goodbye, daddy, back when his nose was bleeding, and she's done, so I was. This was interesting for me, but we cut to them on an open road, interestingly on the wrong side of the road for part of that. So there's a little bit of, you know, rule breaking just right there. We've got music playing, more dynamic sort of road shots that all works, and then we cut to them, pulling into a lot.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it was. Yeah, we don't get these like wide open shots very much and I want to point out that we got. You know, we haven't mentioned the cinematography, for this series is by D Gregor Haggy, h-e-g, h-e-g-e-y Haggy, and it's only him in under cinematographers. Oh wow, sometimes with a series you know you get 10 different people or at least two or three, but it's this one guy and I think it's a guy, gregor probably. I don't know. I don't know the person, but Right.
Speaker 3:And this one was a departure because we got some. You know it's like a beauty shot on the road. You know they had to lock off this road probably.
Speaker 2:That's so funny, because the thought I had when you said that was they made a decision here. Oh yeah, you gotta have you got. Now. You got vehicles. Yep, vehicles means drivers. Like you said, they probably had to lock off the road. Plus that high angle shot, I guess it could be some sort of crane situation, but it feels more like drone to me.
Speaker 3:I think these days it's all drone, but this was shot back in. It was interesting enough that it still was like with a production like this, you might go, man, we just gotta use a crane. You know, my cousin Charlie's got a crane, he'll loan us for whatever. Or you know, you know gorilla filmmaking, you go. Hey, I guess you see this all the time with people who are like oh, you know, my nephew works for the gas company, he's got his own bucket truck.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm gonna say you gotta take a picture, you gotta just come over for a half hour at lunch and just get us one shot, so who knows?
Speaker 2:but they definitely wanted that in there and I wonder if it was placed there to give us a moment to process the question of where they're going.
Speaker 3:Yeah that's true, they don't call it out specifically. They didn't make a decision, we just cut to them drugs. We don't know if they're continuing on the way to Florida or if they're backtracking to the hospital, but we do then cut to the hot.
Speaker 2:the lot they're pulling into is a hospital lot. There's a police cruiser in the parking lot, so there's that automatic reminder. And then you of course wonder like what was that cop looking for them, are they, you know, like, get off the bike, wayne, you nervous. Dell, now I'm good, thanks for coming in and supporting me, or whatever.
Speaker 3:So she, you know, here we go, let's go in Again every time there's even the remote possibility of vulnerability. If you throw a whatever at the end, it softens it a little bit, yep.
Speaker 2:And you're supporting me or whatever. And then Wayne is what you mean? Like coming in the hospital? Apparently that was not his plan. He's like I thought I was in charge of transportation. She says I can't do that. And then she says, well, why the hell not? Well, people die in there, which I was like Wayne. So she's there and she says yeah that's why we're here.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like, don't say that. And then so she says, yeah, I know Underscoring, like, yeah, my father's in there, that's why we're fucking here. And she storms away Dell, he calls after her but she's on her way and he doesn't follow her and it's not great. Cut to walking into the, into the hospital general people milling about, doctors, nurses, people waiting, the whole deal. She's walking down the hall and you can see her kind of looking down, avoiding eye contact. Am I going to be recognized? But also, let me see if I can figure out where my father is. And this isn't going to go great. We cut to Geller, step up to Jay. I'm starting to feel like this plan is a big old way we got to call it yeah.
Speaker 2:So Jay is just so bored, but also he's so. He's so oddly present in the same way that he took the time to take a picture of that suit. Like he's just like, oh, look at this, look at that, like whatever's in front of him. He's a bit of a child in this way. So right now he's really fascinated. The traction on these hospital socks is unreal. We see open on these goofy orange and white socks tilt up.
Speaker 2:Geller comes walking up. Jay said I'm starting to feel like this plan is a big old waste of time. Yeah, I don't know, geller isn't sure, but we've been one step ahead, but one step behind it every turn. Maybe it's time we let him come to us. So they've laid their trap, they've put the, they've put the, they've dangled something out there that's counting on a lot of things. And then the kids got to watch the news and even then Del's got to care about her father enough to stick her neck out for his crazy ass. Geller, yeah, you said it yourself. Never underestimate how complicated, uh before, the child bond can be. Okay, which, by the way, is not what he said. Like I thought it was funny that in capturing the wisdom of Jay, geller like dresses it up. That's not what. That's not what Jay said, um, but is it?
Speaker 3:I'm not. No, no, that is right, he definitely does. And this is not a great plan, no, but it's all they got. What are the odds of, yeah, what are the odds of them actually seeing the thing? And then you know but but at least it's, uh, it's something they're trying to. You know, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different response. So at least Geller's trying to mix it up.
Speaker 2:So I feel like I could walk up the wall in these bad boys Jay's now I can walk up a wall in these bad boys.
Speaker 2:He's back to looking at these goofy high traction hospital socks that he's now fascinated with, and then he says he can walk up a wall. Geller says physics will prove you wrong, which says to me that somewhere inside Geller he thinks that's a crazy thing to say. But just because it's Jay, I've got to be sure that I let him know that he shouldn't try that. Which is great, right, um, all right. So we cut tight shot of, uh, a vending machine. We got moon pies, we got Frito. Well, this is how you know you're down south right coach.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Moon pies.
Speaker 3:I was like wow you don't get a lot of moon pies in vending machines. No Up in Rhode Island, Um yeah. Yeah, so that's what that was. That was the last time we were joking around about Fritos, like straight up Fritos. Yeah, Because when's the last time you had a? I was curious when's the last time you actually had a?
Speaker 2:Fritos when we were growing up were pretty big, I think they were pretty, pretty common, you know what I can tell you, and it was probably two years ago, it was probably at the draft, as we've shared. Uh, listeners, we have a fancy football draft, and so what I'm sure was the case is that we had ripped through the snacks All the good ones, all the good ones and so I was like, all right, screw it, I'll go with the.
Speaker 3:Fritos. Somebody once told me um Fritos. Look like old people's toenails.
Speaker 2:That's funny.
Speaker 3:Since then, I've never had the ability to adjust them.
Speaker 2:That didn't make you want a whole big old bowl of them.
Speaker 3:No, it's for some a bowl Uh Frito toenails. Fritos yeah, so yeah, we have that insert shot. And then we pulled back and we got Wayne standing. What An inch.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's got like like essentially, nose against the glass, like old school you know, uh, starving kid or whatever, and he puts his head against the glass.
Speaker 3:Um, and so we're standing there Cause he just wants to stay and he's starving yeah, he's starving.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, you know those pretzels ain't going to last all day. Um, so they've ripped through the pretzels and licorice, and God, those look delicious. Um, and so he's leaning there and he's startled by uh fuck, and we've got a guy in a young white guy's striped shirt Shit, my bad, just feeling a little upset over here. Wayne has leapt I don't know how many feet away from the vending machine after being startled when we cut back to him. He's got his hands up ready to fight and he's trying to like gather himself from being startled. Shit, my bad, just feeling a little upset over here. Okay, so this guy's a a wound up. He feels bad. Let me get you something. He's going to make it up to him Cookies, chips. What do you want? But he's just talking fast and talking crazy. Anything you want, all right, you know what? Too late, you got cookies, right, he's what's?
Speaker 3:going on. I love how you did that coach, because he is at a different speed than Wayne is like uh, he's like in slow motion, he's dragging ass. This guy comes out like he's on, cope Like he is so far he's he is at at. You know it would use to speed up a record to make it sound like the, it's like, it's like whoa, yeah. So, before Wayne, he had a word in edge wise, this guy's got, you know, three paragraphs and based on setting you go oh shit, something like something's going on.
Speaker 2:He tosses Wayne the cookies. There you go, and he goes and sits down on this bench and pass him on the shoulder.
Speaker 3:Pass Wayne on the shoulder, as he goes by.
Speaker 2:You're all set now. I scared you. I got your cookies, we're good, so, wayne, thanks. Hey, man, sit hang out. So now we're friends and I. Now I need something from you, I need to talk, so we're going to sit down. Coach, I wondered if this you thought this was significant. They both sit between seats and I was like, is this me doing too much? Because it felt like just one more way of like not fitting in being off, being in transition. They, because they both do it almost perfectly.
Speaker 3:I, that's funny, I didn't. I love that, that, that tick. It's something I did not notice and something I would have to, like it would track thematically. You don't say it. For me it was like the way Bradley sits. Bradley is the is. We thought. Well, we will come to find out. This is Bradley. He sits sort of at a position where I was like, okay, you have another guy over it. Reminded me of like urinal, yes.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 3:You know what I mean. You go into a urinal, you go to the bathroom. You don't take the one next to the guy Although, although I had a friend who used to do that and I would. Just I'm like why? Why would you? It just pisses people off. He's like I just like to know that I'm getting a rise out of people. I'm like these are just just leave people alone in the bathroom. It's a horrible thing to do.
Speaker 3:But, yeah, a horrible thing to do. Just just go you. This is for for for women listening who don't have the pleasure of a male restroom. All those smells are just effervescent, and those urinal cakes. It really adds something to your life, right, coach? Not to mention that they don't have never managed to design except of one urinal. One time there's like this, this phenomenon, where, like, no matter where you aim in the urinal, you get back splashed. I'm like what? Like why can't they?
Speaker 2:make. It seems yeah, it seems like you're in all design should be in the rear view for us at this point. It doesn't feel like we should be still sorting out the angle at which that, that bit of porcelain is existing.
Speaker 3:I did. I will say there was a. There was like a urinal I went to one time. It was like it looked like a giant salad bowl. It was like set really low, it wasn't like a wall face. It was on the wall but it was like a real like I don't know, like salad bowl size big bowl and I think they had figured out the the aerodynamics of it. Yeah, the hydrodynamics.
Speaker 3:It was like bravo, you know, I was like good, thank you, Like was this so hard, Right, I wanted to be like. You know, I think I took a picture because I was so happy about it.
Speaker 3:I wanted to like write an email to the company and be like dear Kohler, a long time listener, first time caller. Really appreciate you not making me smell like urine. Anyway, you have this. You have this moment here with Bradley sitting down, and I thought that Wayne chose the proper guy distance on the bench. That was like still cognizant of the invite to sit and talk to a stranger, but at the same time far enough away that I'm not.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm not violating your guy space. But I love that you use that phrase, because in that urinal situation, that is exactly what I say. I'm like what are we dating? Like what? Which makes no sense. It's not like like would I invite Daphne to come stand next to me at a urinal. I don't know what that I don't know why, are we dating, is my reaction.
Speaker 3:What a romantic gesture. Yeah, I know.
Speaker 2:But that is, that is my exit. Those are like I'm like what are we dating? Like why are you what's happening here?
Speaker 3:You are so stupidly conditioned to be aware of what, like, what, I don't know.
Speaker 2:Some man being too close to us when our penis is exposed mostly, I guess.
Speaker 3:This is a bench, though, coach. Oh, I know, I know, this is a bench.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, you just go what? Yeah, the urinal thing, for sure. But yeah, no, even, yeah, I think yeah, if we go to a movie theater and it's not packed and I sit down and you sit in the seat next to me, I'm like what?
Speaker 3:Why, what? Oh, for sure. But what if it's? What if you and I go to a movie theater? I still sit one seat away, yeah, like we're even with a friend. Yeah, we've been friends 30 years. Yeah, what are you doing? It's just because you don't smell great.
Speaker 3:That's fair, no no no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no no no no, no, no no.
Speaker 3:But in the same way that Dell is conditioned to look for violence and be aware of violence or be aware of threat you know threat assessment this guy's not stable and so Wayne sits far enough away that, like if the guy jumps at him or something like he doesn't know if he's getting baited into it, Like you didn't know this guy, right, the guy just bought him cookies, what's actually happening here. This guy is definitely going through something, so walk us through this.
Speaker 2:coach you ever get a girl pregnant. The guy asks so, no, wayne says nothing, by the way, no, yeah, wayne says nothing. Well, I fucking did. And we're like, oh, okay, I get it. Here we go now. So he says, yep, 19 and my life's fucking over. Are I fucking pee? You know how young that is? And Wayne, very factually 19. Oh my God, these two are made for each other. So fucking young bro. So this guy is freaking out. He is impregnated someone. And, oh, boy, so I mean, I'm a kid still.
Speaker 2:By the way, pause this for a second though, because I love this piece and it's reserved for guys. I'll never forget Ryan Lochte, when the Olympics were, I want to say in Brazil, and they were like oh, this kid, this kid everybody's talking about this kid and what this kid did. And he was like 30, something, like he was literally in his 30s. And they were like this kid is kid, and white men specifically, but men in general can. The ability to be reclassified as boys, where we don't want to, where we don't feel like stepping up and we don't want to be adults anymore at this given moment, is fascinating to me. Like, oh, now you're a kid, I'm sure you aren't like, hey, young lady, I'm just a kid, let's have sex. I'm sure you were all man then, but now that that the shit hits the fan, I'm just a kid.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know what. I'm saying While you were saying you didn't have protection. I still wanted to get laid. Oh man, I would love to, but I'm just a kid. You were like yeah, yeah, baby.
Speaker 2:I'm a man, I want to feel whatever, so, like it's interesting when you're a man, when you're a kid and getting the shoes Situational manhood oh yeah, it's a real thing.
Speaker 3:So anyway, he's, he's Wait before we go on. Before we go on, I always talk about the casting and the stuff and everything in here. This guy's name is the actor who plays Bradley, this white kid. His name is Peyton Meyer. He has listen, I take a lot of pride in being able to be honest about who's beautiful. This fucker is beautiful. He has the prettiest eyes he has. This guy, he is like leading man, good looks, and I was like holy shit, like I looked him up, it looks like he has been in since Wayne. He was in American housewife and he's all that like bit parts. But I was like wow, it is funny it because he does a good job here. If you look at exactly, you go oh, it wasn't his skill that has kept him from. He did a good job as Brad.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, no, no, no, I bought him. If you told me like, oh, this is the guy they found in South Carolina and he would, I'd be like, oh yeah, okay, great, like I totally bought him yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, right, yes, and he had. It's funny he had that I had some. I made some friends living in Boston went to the old iron sides, which is the tall ship in Boston Harbor. My dad used to like to go there so I went there one time with him and we were bringing some family members from out of town and I ended up I don't know, it's just joking around with some of the sailors on the ship and they were just nice. They were like they remind me of this Bradley guy. That's why I bring it up. They were like good, clean, cut.
Speaker 3:All American boys, and there's one guy especially. I just thought, oh. So he just started really cracking me up and I said, listen, I know you guys are going to sound weird, but I know you're. You know away from home or whatever. If you guys ever want a home cooked meal, you know we live, you know right outside the city and and the lake you can come water skiing and just get. So he showed up how nice he's like. He's like that sounds nice. And he showed up. Maybe it was like a weekend later, two weekends later, whatever showed up like four or five guys ready to beat me up if I was gay. This is like the story they tell. They're like we didn't, we weren't sure.
Speaker 1:If you're hitting on it, you know like, oh my God.
Speaker 3:And then they were like when they found out like I was just like you know whatever.
Speaker 3:You know I'm lucky for them that I was not attracted to them because I'm a real people pleaser coach. But then we ended up having, we remained friends this day, oh nice. You know, 30 plus years ago. And this guy probably reminds me of that friend. He's from Omaha, nebraska, and you know, just like you know all American kid, and handsome and but kind of a knucklehead, right, and you know a five cent head, no experience, kind of thing, right, but not a bad kid.
Speaker 2:That's what I was going to say. Like there's nothing bad about that. I'm sure he's like you know what he didn't say. Like fuck her. Like I can't believe she got pregnant. You know what I mean. Like it's not. He's not. No, he is appropriately freaked out. Like he's freaked out. He's like oh shit, I have to be a father.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm going to be a dad. He, to the show's credit and to his credit, he does not say one bad word.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, it's none of that bullshit. None of that bullshit. Yeah, fuck you ever been. So he's, look at the. He's like all the things in life he's not going to experience now. So that made me laugh. Fuck you ever been bungee jumping.
Speaker 3:Yeah, this specific bungee, this specific bucket list. Wayne Wayne cracks open the cookies that Bradley bought them. He's about to take his first bite before he can get it there. You ever been bungee jumping? And keep going. Listen to this list.
Speaker 2:All right, so so, uh, so wait, let's go. Huh Me neither. What about water skiing? You ever been water skiing? Fuck, that sounds fun, doesn't it? What about sushi? Ever tried? Sushi what. I mean, there's like word association, like what.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, yeah, what.
Speaker 2:How'd you get the fucking sushi? He finishes up with what? No, what about a butter? What about a water buffalo? You ever seen one of them? Oh God, like he is so freaked out His nervous system, everything is just. I like. What the fuck? Like, how'd you do water ski sushi, water, like just things associated with water, I guess. Like he is freaked out and he goes fuck, like, this is all. Like he is. He is in that initial moment of he still actually doesn't believe he's going to be a father. He's still processing that piece of information. The five stages of grace or whatever.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like he is in pure denial shock right now, like he's like get me some sushi. I didn't even know I wanted to see a water buffalo, until I realized my life was over. Like it's great.
Speaker 3:Listen, Wayne never said a word throughout any of that and did not also eat the cookie he like had brought it up to his mouth and the guy was like hammering him so much that he just kind of slowly brought it down. And is it any wonder? I just love this beautiful shot here of two young white men with a brick wall behind them and nothing else, and I was like, oh man, these guys are trapped in such different ways. You know, it's just a barrier.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's also clearly a choice visually, because this, I mean, we're just talking about the open road and whatever. This show makes choices visually. We may get why certain choices are made or not guess what they are, but to put them against a flat wall, albeit a brick wall, is a choice and we are supposed to experience the trappedness of these two. I feel pretty confident in saying that. I mean they are literally back against the wall both of them, but then we can't like. Then there are also some contrast in the shot. So you have eyes wide open, hyperactive, you know talking. And then Wayne, by the end of all this ranting, wayne's eyes are just closed, like he's just sort of like sitting there and just like a lot like absorbing all this crazy energy coming at him.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I don't feel like a threat. Like he's like he's calmed down. He's like, oh God, this guy is just a guy going through a lot of shit.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:And we cut back to the hospital bed. Bobby's in there and the nurse who was talking with the sheriff I mean the sergeant is in his room. The boys are back in the Teddy and Carlyle back in the wheelchairs by his side. And Bobby says I'm fucking dying over here, dying. He's dying. I'm gonna pin the nurses. You need to get yourself together. I will restrain you. Why don't you give me something for the fucking pain? She says, hey, he's supposed to be helping me out. I need some fucking morphine. And she says what, coach?
Speaker 2:I can't give painkillers to an alcoholic Like she wasn't going to say that she's just doing her job, but he has worked her nerves to where she's like look motherfucker right, so I can't give painkillers to an alcoholic Like. What's funny about that is when she said that before the cut to Bobby Luchero, because we cut to him immediately and you see him process what she just said Before the cut. I went ugh.
Speaker 2:Oh, it is yeah yeah, yeah, I was like, oh boy, because one, he is absolutely an alcoholic and two, you are absolutely not allowed to call him an alcoholic. I knew both those things. Yes, I was like oh God, no.
Speaker 3:If you. If there's, no, I don't know what the numbers are. I wish there were numbers. But this is when I talk a lot about how amazing women in their 50s are and some of the stuff you know. I know so many in this particular area. You'd be surprised I guess you wouldn't be surprised at what percentage of them have functional alcoholic husbands, who this is what they have. This but you cannot ever bring it up. If you bring it up, it's a war, you're making a battle. It is like a line of demarcation, at least in this region. And you know you talk about denial, about poor Bradley outside, like these guys would never process that they have a problem drinking because that's a weakness. That would suggest that they're not real men. They need something to get through the debt. That's bullshit. That's what they did to what men do and therefore you know some horseshit version of that.
Speaker 2:It's also. I'll never forget. I wish I could remember where I heard it, but I'll never forget the phrase. And they said every pimp will tell you at least I'm not a drug dealer and every drug dealer will tell you at least I'm not a pimp. There's something about However fucked up you get with stuff. If you drink every day, then it's oh, but it's not like I drink X, y or Z, or it's not like I'm fall down drunk every day. And if you're fall down drunk, it's like well, I'm not like I'm fucking homeless. If you're homeless, there's always like it's not, as if I'm not as bad, as it's no big deal. And I mean we have seen Bobby in action. Like that's like a perfectly reasonable conclusion for anyone to reach. But here we go.
Speaker 2:So anyway, we cut to Bobby Luchetti. He's processing what was just said. And so what did you just call me? And she says I did not call you anything. Well, who the hell did? Whoever the hell filled out your intake forms and and we have the look of we're dead. Yeah, from Carl and Teddy. From Carl and Teddy. They both know, oh, this doesn't go well. There's even some slouching in the seat. Bobby looks over at them. Why the fuck did you say I was an alcoholic, to which they respond honestly? We didn't. I just said that you enjoy eight drinks a day. Now pause it for a second. The use of the word enjoy, that cracked me up. That cracked me up because I mean to enjoy a drink. You know to me, you know I see palm trees swaying, or I see. You know what I mean. Yeah, no, no sure. Enjoy, like one doesn't enjoy eight drinks a day. Sorry, like that's not how we describe that, but it was great, and Bobby Lachetti doesn't enjoy anything.
Speaker 2:No, right. So the idea of right him enjoy right, that just cracked me up. You said what?
Speaker 3:Like if you said, like, if you used the verb assault for eight drinks a day, you did yeah, that makes more, yeah, that feels in line with who Bobby is.
Speaker 2:So you said what we can't lie these official government papers we could get sequestered. What Like? Just word, just a word, just like. What are you talking about? So, of course, as a father, as any good father does, responding to that admission, he throws his pudding and we get that's tapioca.
Speaker 3:Yeah, teddy, that's tapioca, tapioca.
Speaker 2:And actually it's funny because in the closed caption here it says that Bobby says that's it, but I think the nurse says it oh right, yeah, yeah, yeah right, because she's like I have had it with this fucking guy and now he's throwing shit, so we're done. But the other side of this chaos is they're making more and more noise, and so Dell recognizes that brand of chaos up in front. I don't want to get stabbed. I'm stabbing your fucking eyeballs out. I mean, it's full Luchetti lunacy going down. They're running. He's throwing shit.
Speaker 3:That seems to be his chart that comes flying out of the room. I thought it was his food trade. Maybe it was the food. I actually forgot we had my exam makes more sense.
Speaker 2:I was trying to figure out what that was that flew out behind them. You stupid cock fucks, which is apparently a word.
Speaker 3:These are his boys.
Speaker 2:He's talking about. These are his beloved children, the twins. I'll burn down this fucking hospital, but not just that, I'll fuck every nurse. Whoa, there's a birthday party going on.
Speaker 3:There's a birthday party going on in the next bed.
Speaker 2:And so they're all staring with the birthday hats on. I'll fuck every nurse, including the fucking male ones. Like what? What Are you saying? It's truly just like. How vulgar can I be? The vulgarity is the assault. Like it's just like there's no rhyme, or what do you mean? I'll burn it down and fuck the nurse and fuck it. None of all it means is I am vulgar and I will assault you with my vulgarity. That's all it actually means, because it doesn't even make any fucking sense. And so we've got the family reacting to this lunatic screaming.
Speaker 2:The show does innocent families reacting so fucking well, yeah, and it reminds you that the world is not like because you can get sucked into, this is the other's and fuck this and that, and to put it next to like a normal family, come to say you're in the hospital, but we all love you. Happy birthday Just reminds us like this is not OK.
Speaker 3:This is crazy. There's a I don't know what this, I don't know what this is, but you know, like they used to say, like oh, trump is a poor person's version of what a rich person is.
Speaker 2:Yes, you never hear those, those, yeah. A weak, yeah, a weak man's version of what a strong man is. Yeah, yeah, right.
Speaker 3:Exactly, or whatever that is. And, and I was looking at this one shot of this, this super nice Hispanic family next door having the party hats on, oh my god. And now there are how many? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12. And there are actually 12 people. Which is that? Is it? I just got that.
Speaker 2:So I didn't think of that. Yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 3:Because that's what he complained about before, when there were five, but now they're actually are 12. So fuck him. And they're just looking, you know it's like, oh, it's like, ok, this is. He's validating like the worst version of what a white man oh yeah.
Speaker 3:You know what I mean. Like it's like, oh yeah, they make you still like that, you guys still exist. So I don't understand. I'll fuck every nurse, including the fucking bill ones. What I don't? I don't even the level of depravity, and like sexual violence and I'm like how does your brain produce that sentence Like I don't like.
Speaker 2:Even given, even given the situation, even given you being upset about what I like, how does your brain give you that as the way to express I'm furious. Not I'll beat all your asses, not what, I'll fuck every like I will go on a rape spree. Like what? What are you saying out loud, do?
Speaker 3:I guess even the male ones is like oh, this is how mad I am, yeah yeah, just so you know Right. Yeah, yeah, so you understand, I'll hold my nose and continue sexual violence with the gentleman I just got, like he is. I mean, lest there's any doubt whatsoever, what.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, so, so, yeah, this is and this is all a decibel 11. So we cut to poor dough, who is like slunk around the corner. She's down now like kind of like squat sitting on the ground. You can just see like this is my life written across her face.
Speaker 3:Well, is there, did you? Did you register it? Ok, so she thought she was going to find her dad on death store Right and she she finds peak, violent Bobby Lachette like making the fool of himself, and and and doing it, doing so loudly, and it seemed to me like she had a traumatic reaction. Oh, yeah. Like you know, being like a sort of you look at like trauma, sensitive, mindfulness kind of thing. Yeah, she is. She was not prepared for the she is having some instant reaction.
Speaker 3:She leans against the wall. She slides down to the floor like squats down against the wall.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm glad you pointed that out because I guess I did. But yeah, there is the little scared kid Also. Like I was thinking of it more as like sad and like how is this my life? But I think you're right that, like she knows, like actually, when he starts acting like that, I bet she has needed to take cover and learn to do it quickly and quietly and just wait for the storm to be over, like I'm yeah, make sense, it's got to be one of her learned behaviors.
Speaker 3:I swear to God, you turn on my fucking kids. Yikes, I don't know who you're fucking, mother fuck, who you're fucking mother fucked. But it wasn't me, it wasn't fucking me.
Speaker 2:So pause it there because, again, like the vulgarity as its own point, if there's one human being we are sure this man loved, it is the woman he is talking about in that sentence. Yeah, and what he says is I don't know who you're fucking, mother fucked. Wow, like, it's just such like, but you just like it's who the man is for, whatever his you know, I don't get the sense that he exactly was born with a spoon in his mouth either. So, okay, but it's just so violent, it's all so violent. And what a horrible thing to say to them about their mother who died and for some reason, at the very least, we know Dell didn't get to go to a funeral. I don't know what else went down, but like, really, that's like a thing you say out loud about your late life.
Speaker 3:It's, it's stunning. You know they say that old term in in. Well, we say you know the pronunciation, latin is with the W. But they say you know whether you say in vino veritas or in vino veritas, whatever whatever you say take it in wine. There's truth.
Speaker 3:And in this case, his, his lack of wine, his, his like, he is becoming laid bare. You know what I mean. It's like the wine serves to shield him and put on armor, and his like, the truly despicable thoughts that he has, or his attacks in our coming out. You know he's not able to.
Speaker 2:Yeah, instead of truth serum, this is like truth sobriety.
Speaker 3:Yeah, like he, just you just get the sense, and I don't know if he actually believes that or something, but like no, under certain circumstances he might be able to at least control that impulse. Yeah, and look at Del's face in this shot. She's she is. It looks like borderline to spawn it. She's got her hands on her, on the sides of her face, yeah, and she looks very small.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yes, she seems very small, yeah, so she sighs. Bobby's yelling here come Jay and Geller. Hey, these two motherfuckers there. So Geller, hey, put a cork in it. I like that. Even though he drives a Nissan Leaf like he's seen a thousand, bobby Luchetti's put a cork in it. Bobby does not put a cork in it. Now we've got, now we've got Del. She turns, she gets her courage up. She's going to head that way. And Bobby yells will somebody please get me a goddamn fucking drink? So he's, he's, he's crossed out of whatever to now. He's being super clear. Like this is starting to hurt way more than the collapse lung. I need a drink. She turns and walks away and just in time because out of the room, calm Jay and Geller, and Jay's explaining that it's three leches. That means three milks, which I'm already.
Speaker 3:Okay. Is he talking about the food? I think he's talking about the shit that he threw.
Speaker 2:Okay, yeah, I think he is. I was what I assumed, which is like, but that's not the point anymore than the stakeout point was the sticky sock, you know, I mean like the traction of the socks, like he's just very funny where he gets distracted.
Speaker 3:Now once again I'll say that we miss boss now again. Didn't think I'd say it twice in one episode and they never say it, but I think she would. She would talk about the reference she made to God. I forget who it was it was. I forgot who the comedian was. Was a female comedian who said oh, don't worry, she can. She can hear the type of drunk that he is. So this is not a violent drunk.
Speaker 3:And what I saw, right before Del turned and walked away, she heard him say well, someone, please get me a fucking drink. And she heard pain in his voice and she realized the violence is coming. He needs to be vulnerable and he's hurting Right and you know you watch this as a sentient human and you go, good, fuck him Right. But if he's your dad, right, and you hear him suffering right, it lands completely differently for her, and for her, I'm sorry. And she turns and walks the other way before the officers come out.
Speaker 2:And it also begs the question I think the rest of this episode speaks to this question, without you know saying what has happened before it happened of what does love look like? Right, like what does love look like? Love, you know, like love might look like getting you to the hospital but not going in, or should it be going in and you fucked up and didn't show up. You know what I mean. And in this moment, you know my dad's dying. They're asking for thoughts and prayers. All right, he's, you know all the things, but he's still my dad. I just think there's a lot of like what is required, what is required of me and to have a guy you know going oh, my God, my life's over, I'm going to be a dad again. Yeah, you know like there's a lot of what is required.
Speaker 3:Well, you look at that scene with Bobby and it's like a Rashomon kind of kind of vibe, because you say, oh, the hospital staff is hearing one thing, you know, the cops are hearing another thing, the boys are hearing another thing. They're running for their lives, right. The family next door is hearing another thing and Dell hears something completely different. It's all the same thing he's saying, right, right, she's able to discern something totally different than everybody else. So we're back outside with that great shot of the boys, wayne and Bradley, on the bench against the wall. And what do we have here, coach?
Speaker 2:All right. So we're at this point. Brad's got his cookies now, so we've settled in, we've gotten the first wave out and these little butter cookie bitches are addictive, which, as long as we're talking about addicts, you ever do cocaine? I did cocaine once. By the way, I hear sugar is hard as hard to kick as cocaine. They've studied it which I thought was like really deep. But anyway, god, I love cocaine. How old are you? Again? He is still kind of reeling. I'm sort of surprised I'm not a cocaine right now, 16,.
Speaker 2:Wayne says fuck me. And Brad is looking around man, that's what I'm talking about. And he points and what's he pointing? To Wayne's bike. And it's so funny, right? Like, talk about grass is greener. Yeah, he's like man, whoever owns that bike, right? So jumping on the back of that thing, leaving the bullshit behind, or just like living like an outlaw, it's like, oh, wouldn't that be just so easy and free. I mean, we're like we've been with Wade, not exactly. Yeah, he's got it made, he's got it made. And Wayne says you never know.
Speaker 2:And then this hit me in a specific way and this is about my own life. A bus pulls up to a bus stop there and when my mother was at her wit end. She would sometimes say that she thought about that. How she would say it. She says sometimes I just want to leave everything. Just get on a bus and I'll tell anybody where I went. Like she's just like you're buying me should say this. She said that, yeah. She said that, yeah, every Tuesday she said it. But she expressed that there were just times where it was just also overwhelming and she just wants to get away. And so when that bus came around, I immediately was like Black woman in America.
Speaker 3:Yeah great, Exactly Throwing up at that time Easy Shree Right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, seriously.
Speaker 3:Yeah, put your wine in mom.
Speaker 2:Right, exactly, everything's going to be super easy, exactly, and he looked at. I thought he was going to get on that fucking bus Before there was any whatever, he'd just been talking about the bike. It feels like the whole world just crashed out around him. I thought this guy was going to be like laid away.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and it's not a casual thing. They insert the bus pulling up. They show people getting on and off, they cut back to him staring.
Speaker 2:He's clearly thinking Longly at the bus, yeah, yeah, people getting on, people getting off. See a nurse get off her whole deal. You never know, right. He asks as the camera pushes in. We can still see Wayne over his shoulder. He's breathing a little heavy. My mom left, I was fine.
Speaker 3:He had said oh yeah, here's what we missed. While we were talking that up, he said my dad left me and I turned out all right, Mm-hmm, which it's one of those things people say.
Speaker 2:I always find it an interesting assessment because people be like hey, I got beat, I turned out all right and I'm always like, says you Like. It's a very interesting assessment to put forth, like, oh yeah, I turned out fine, like. But did you turn out fine Like? By what measure are you fine, sir? Like who?
Speaker 3:said you turned out fine, like you. Never even seen a water buffalo, we haven't had sushi.
Speaker 2:Listen, right now we are sharing butter cookies in a fucking hospital park a lot, because you got some women you didn't mean to get pregnant, pregnant, so did you turn out fine? Like I'm not saying you didn't turn out fine, I'm just saying it's an interesting thing people say when they're processing whatever it is.
Speaker 3:And to this point, other than saying his age, wayne has said nothing, right.
Speaker 2:And now he's going to share, which is sort of un-Waynish behavior anyway, and it's interesting framing because we have Bradley real tight in the foreground and.
Speaker 3:Wayne in the over his shoulder blurry you know 10, 12 feet behind him sitting on the bench still.
Speaker 2:Good point and not looking at Bradley. It's almost visually like the old school cartoon angel on the shoulder position.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, no, I didn't even think of that. That's right, actually. Wow, that's a really good observation.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying, Like, not that you just said. I'm like oh, look at that.
Speaker 3:So it looks like that. Right, that's a hell of. If they did that intentionally. That's a hell of a hell of a choice, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2:But we go then to Wayne. My dad stayed. He didn't have to, but he did Right what is required. Well, if you said, I'm sorry, I went too far, coach.
Speaker 3:Before that he said my mom left when I was five. I think he said something like that let's see it up up here. What do we got? Wayne says yeah, here we go.
Speaker 2:My mom left when I was five, right, and then we cut into him. And then he says my dad stayed. He didn't have to, but he did. We go back to Bradley, who's still thinking breathing Wasn't always the best dad, but he stayed Back to the bus now Tighter. Shot on the bus, tighter oh boy.
Speaker 2:Oh boy, now we hear the bus break. You know, like we know, the bus is about to take off. That hiss, and then Bradley turns around and comes back. Decision made, bus gone. I might be a shitty dad, but for now it looks like I'm going to be a dad. How many girls had sex with you?
Speaker 3:You know, as I say, you wonder if Bradley's going to have a real breakthrough moment. And then what does he start up?
Speaker 2:with how many girls he had sex with. And again, no answer. I think I'm up to nine. No way. Tonya Boyd, 10, which I was like oh God, but it feels a bit more of an assessment of life up to now, because life's about to be over. So it's like it felt to me like wait, does this mean I'm never going to have sex with any other women ever again? Like there was some of that in that assessment. Yeah, yeah, yeah and so. But right off of that we get Dell marching in on a mission that walks, she gets when she's like something's going to happen right now, walks up to Wayne and says we got to go to the packy, which took me a second to process what happened there. I was like, really, do you know what? Do you know what a packy is I? I, yeah, a package store, I assume.
Speaker 3:Package store, which is which is the what they call liquor stores up here in this region.
Speaker 2:So but yeah, I had to. I had to walk through what you just did, because it's not a phrase I would use, but I was like, oh, okay. And so in that moment I'll share what my in real time reaction was. Oh no, she only knows one, she's only seen one way to process overwhelming emotions. Yeah, right, and I thought, oh boy, please don't. Yeah, yeah, yeah, please don't. So that's where that left me. And of course, bradley, who only knows Wayne as the guy who was waiting to chat me up at the vending machine, yeah, says well, hello, aka my best friend. Yeah, we are. Yeah, what's your name again? And then, well, hello, there he stands up, little lady, he's hands on hips like what the fuck, bro?
Speaker 3:This is where boss would be just flaying me alive. Right now she's like oh, castle, then you said he was a good boy. He's like not a bad guy. And he's got a presumably a girl pregnant and the other thing. And as soon as he's another pretty girl, he's like, oh, hello, right, so he's not a good boy. You know, and neither are you for thinking.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and he's happy to make it 11 if things go the way they could go.
Speaker 3:It's just again, really, bro, reinforces what a horse's ass he is. And she's like who's this? What's this? Who's this? Jack off, which was great, who's this? She doesn't look at, said.
Speaker 2:Jaguar no, no, like she's like I got, I got shit going on and I don't need bullshit from this Jaguar. Like it's just like yeah, because it's also fuck off right. Like it's. She's asking Wayne, but she's also letting this guy know, like Back away, don't bother me. To which Wayne answers that's Bradley, he's having a baby, sure, yeah.
Speaker 3:That's a and she says sucks for him. Yeah, it does yeah it does.
Speaker 2:We got to go get booze, yeah, and she walks away Like there's no, explaining there's no, that's it. What about your dad? Is he in there?
Speaker 3:Bradley goes fuck yeah, we do, we do. Listen, listen, listen. People go OK. You call Ted Lasso a masterpiece because I believe it is. You say what you call Wayne a masterpiece. Here's one of the reasons why you'll get if you had to twist my arm. Why do you think this is a masterpiece? Because nobody takes the time with small moments like this. If this is a network show.
Speaker 3:This is gone. You never meet Bradley, you never meet ancillary care, you never give them personalities, you never waste time away from the MacGuffin, from your A plot, because you assume people are dumb enough, are too dumb to absorb it and they're not nuanced and they won't be able to discern the importance of the interwoven plot lines. But all of that setup is like perfect for this outcome. Fuck, yeah, we do. It's like, yeah, we weren't. We had no knowledge that Dell was going to need alcohol. But once she does, bradley is fully on board and Wayne's like wait, wait, what about your dad? Is he in there? She's, he doesn't know what's happening.
Speaker 2:Yes, and he's not dead. I mean, wow, like to have that stern, angry slash, sad slash, determined look on your face at the news that your father is not dead. Right, like, if you're Wayne right now, you, even you still got to be like what the fuck is happening. So he says so why are we getting booze? We should go now, which I love, because if your father were dead then I understand the booze thing. But since your father's not dead, why are we getting booze? Interesting, like there's so much everybody's logic and where everybody is, and Bradley, of course, is just sorting out like I didn't know, it was my lucky day, but apparently we're drinking now, so let's get it done. I'm going to get some Yeager. Oh, we should get some cocaine, maybe like whoa.
Speaker 3:What Bradley Bradley reminds me. You ever have a friend where whatever advice they got last is the best advice they've ever got. That's funny. Yeah, and so he was sitting there pouring his heart out to Wayne. Wayne gave him a tiny bit of advice that didn't get him on. It kept him off the bus problem.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 3:Right. And as soon as Dale comes out like let's get fucked up or let's get alcohol, he's like yes, we should go right now. Like he's fully.
Speaker 2:And, by the way, I'm pretty sure he found out inside said hospital about the pregnancy. So is there someone waiting for you, mr? Let's go get some cocaine, right, right, what is so crazy? Why is he here? And he again, factually correct. He bought me some cookies. Can he buy us some booze? As long as you're going to be running that fucking trap of yours, are you useful Cause I got something to do? Yeah, I got a fake ID. So of course now we're a team Says I'm a foot taller and 40 pounds fatter.
Speaker 2:But, by the way, did I ever tell you real quick on this, I had a fake ID. This is old school, new York, Right? I wanna tell people I'm from New York, because some folks here may have been to Times Square more recently and so they think it's like an extension of Disneyland. It was not when I was growing up. It was the opposite of that. It was the seediest, grime-iest shit ever. There were just like triple X theaters and it was a fucking catashree.
Speaker 2:And I went to that lovely area to get a fake ID and just to show like how bullshit the whole system is. This ID that I went on to use to buy alcohol on more than one occasion simply on the top said identification, like it was even like an attempt to be like by this authority or that authority. It just said identification, that's it. Oh, here's my identification card. Here you go. And yes, I always laugh that like the whole thing was such bullshit. Like who did I hand? How do I hand that to somebody in a liquor store? And they go yeah, checks out, you're all set.
Speaker 3:It's all. It was a different, it was the Wild West. Back then it was crazy. By the way, the only place I ever got a fake ID was there. Also Is that fun? And I was in school in New York city at the time and I my best friend there and I we gave this dirt bag some money on the street and he ducked into a photo shop and then we waited for a while and we're like what's taking so long? We go in and he must have. Just there was a door up.
Speaker 2:How he went back, just took our money.
Speaker 3:And so then we figured out this thing where went to this? We're like, oh shit, we don't have IDs. But we went to this. We were in a theater program and so we had access to a ton of costumes. And it was amazing because we were in acting school at the time, and so what they would do is they would give you any shows that were playing in town that didn't have, that weren't to capacity. You could get tickets in the very, very back for six bucks, and so we would do all that and we had access to a bunch of costumes. And we found these tweed blazers and we realized we didn't need IDs.
Speaker 3:If you had those on If we put on these fake glasses like these see-through, like no, you know, the glasses didn't wear, they were just frames and these tweed that no one carded us Like we never got carded Because they're just like yeah, and that's, there's New York cities, but it was, but again it was insane, it was a wild way, it was totally different than it was totally insane.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, and it's not like, it's not anything like it is now with that kind of stuff, there's completely nuts yeah.
Speaker 3:So Dale has no time. Can we just hurry the fuck up, please? She's just, yeah, like he's talking about his ID. Makes him 40 pounds.
Speaker 2:She doesn't give a fuck about anything other than the mission she's on Now. This line crushed me Because he's Bradley, just straight up, and it's actually not Well, cause she walks away.
Speaker 3:She's like, can we just go? And she turns and just walks, she goes like she's you know right.
Speaker 2:And he and Bradley says to Wayne, as they both watch her walk away, do not get her pregnant. That is so fucking funny and just like so, like he's, like you, like you'll get your ass kicked. Like it was just so good, it was just a great line. Like Bradley's, like she is a house of fire.
Speaker 3:She's a pit fight. She is tough as nails.
Speaker 2:If you will be siding on for a life of getting your ass kicked, sir. If you do that, be careful. So anyway, I just thought that was great.
Speaker 3:So we do a little time cut to after they've already gone to the parking lot, I mean to the, to the packy, and you know it's funny, just when you don't have a lot of money for locations like look where this shot is taking place. It's like you know what I mean. You just at the back door of the hospital, just it looks like there's no one in the parking lot. They must have waited. It looks like sun's going down. It's one of those shots You're like let's see if we can get this shot. Like we have to shoot this somewhere. We don't have a specific location. Let's put them on the like, just you know on the the part kneeling on the asphalt of the parking lot, and let's roll, probably a grand total of seven feet from where we were just shooting, by the way.
Speaker 3:Right, yeah, yeah, exactly, and just what you have to do with a limited budget and what happens here.
Speaker 2:So, bradley, we've got bottles on the ground. It did look from a distance. A former bartender and me immediately was like oh, what are they drinking? I saw something that looked like, had like a fireball vibe to it. I'm trying to figure out what they've got, but I'm not making sense of it. And on cube, bradley says what do you make? You know what the fuck are you making? And she's, and as she pours what seems to be milk into what seems to be juice, she says it's a Cape Cod. Coolly, my dad invented it. So immediately I'm like dear God.
Speaker 3:Sometimes so Cape Codder is a vodka, cranberry Right. So I think there's vodka and I think there's cranberry Right. Yeah, there's also half and half. There also appears to be grapefruit juice, right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and fireball, like I don't know why that's sitting there, or whatever that, whatever whiskey that is. And so apparently this was invented at Bigfucks. Over the summer we had a friend, a big fuck, who would rent a trailer, or dad would rent the trailer from Bigfuck, excuse me, and so he was very big. Wayne asks so, just in case anybody was wondering. And they park it down at the trailer park down by the beach for a couple of days. This was high living. They go swimming, all that, and she's still mixing this thing and I'm getting sick watching her mix. I'm like, oh my God, like why don't I just stick your finger in your throat and save the money? And then they park it down my trailer swimming all that. She's pouring the whiskey in. At this point she's mixing the whole thing in the juice bottle. Yeah, so this is like you do.
Speaker 3:As one. Exactly. This feels like a glimpse into Boss's childhood too, by the way. You know you have like is this? Just feels like she would really relate to this this impromptu mixers. She thinks it's just made of stuff Bigfuck had lying around the trailer, right, but my dad would let me make these for him and I thought it was so cool because I was nine or 10 and it was booze. But you know, he probably just let me make him because he was lazy.
Speaker 2:Which is also like even whatever halfway pleasant memory she had of somehow this being like a thing she did for her dad. In the darkest we might find it. At least she had some warmth around it. Even that's been ruined over time, right, like it's not. Oh, he loved me, or blah, blah, blah it's. You know he was lazy, he's probably just lazy. So she walks off with her mixed drink. We now understand what's happening. She's making the Cape Cod Cooley for Mr Withdrawal over there and she walks away. Wayne follows Del wait and Bradley because you know he came for the booze takes a taste of the Cape Cod Cooley, which I was like you really gotta be interested in getting fucked up to do that, yeah, and he goes oh God, that's rude. And then goes for Swallow number two.
Speaker 2:So I'm like, dude, you are not the bastion of great decision making at all.
Speaker 3:And Wayne's chasing after Del and calls after I think we're gonna leave it there for today. Coach man, oh God, that's rude. And then takes a bit of a slug and that's a Swallow.
Speaker 2:It's a different time in life Like I get it. I definitely drank some things over the years. At looking back on what in what version of reality, was that a good idea or what was that? But yeah right now my stomach is definitely like sympathy. Sympathy sickness Like right now.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you wanna yell at your screen Please do.
Speaker 2:Oh, you don't wanna do that. No, yeah, yeah, no, this ends poorly Amazing, so yeah.
Speaker 3:We have about, I'd say, probably 10 or 12 minutes left from the episode. We'll get that next time. This is Wayne, episode seven. It'll last forever. And coach, where do people find you if they wanna find you?
Speaker 2:Come through. We aligned. We aligned out of line pcom. We're actually working on some plans right now to revamp things and build up the community, but just trying to make it work for everybody Live better lives. And we're getting there, we're getting there.
Speaker 3:Love it, love it, love it, love it. And I was just looking up yeah, total recall, that's the name of the one where Kuatu comes out of the dude. I couldn't think of the name total recall that. We wish Boss the best. Hope she feels better. And yeah, thanks to everybody for listening. Thanks for joining us on this exploration of Wayne. It has been, man, never a dull moment. Coach.
Speaker 2:I mean really this episode maybe above all, never a dull moment. Everything was like bam bam bam bam.
