We are SO back! Emma is back from vacation, AND we are beginning a whole new show, Young Royals.

Listen this week as we begin our journey with Wilhelm, a member of the Swedish Royal Family, who is being sent away to a boarding school. While at this new school, we meet Simon, the cutest cutie patootie to ever exist. Also has the voice of an angel. Upon first glance, Wilhelm and Simon could not be more different. Could these differences keep them apart, or could they draw them closer together?

So sit down, relax, and join us as we talk through Wilhelm and Simon's first glances and conversations.

SPEAKER_00

Um, hello. Um, my name's Emma. I'm Meredith, and this is the season!

SPEAKER_01

Woo!

SPEAKER_00

That was not rehearsed. That was not rehearsed, guys. By chance. And um, Emma's back. I am Woo! She's back from Japan. She's been a little out of the loop. She just tried to start talking instead of introducing herself. Um so that happened. Yes, my name's Emma. Um sorry. But I'm so glad she's back because I tried to do two solo episodes. I didn't try, I did. I did do them. And I did do them, and um, I did creep one and two, and I found out there's a show. There's a whole show. There's a show. There's a creep show. And I think it has like two seasons. When did that even air? I didn't even know that. I don't know. Interesting. But I was looking for movies, and I I was like going down the list, and I saw that, and I was like, oh my god, that would be funny because the first time I watched this, it was with you. Yeah. And we thought it was like the weirdest shit ever. It's because it is. And it is. But it's like also good, like it's also kind of good. Mm-hmm. And it cause it's in that like documentary style. Yeah. Um, so I've covered those, so I hope people enjoyed it. I I enjoyed it. I have not listened to them yet, personally. Um, so I'm gonna have to see how it is with you just talking by yourself, you know. Yeah. Did you find enjoyment just talking to yourself? Um, I guess it was okay. I mean, originally Teresa wanted to do it, but because of our like she wanted to do it with me, but because she teaches so much, and like when I have free time, she's at work. So we we just couldn't coordinate it. And I also that movie isn't her vibe. She doesn't like scary, scary stuff, she doesn't like macabre stuff, she doesn't she doesn't like anything creepy or like gross, like grotesque or anything like that. So, um, she's also not a true crime person. So, all of that combined, she just wouldn't have liked it. No. Um she would have been fun on the podcast. Don't get me wrong. She wouldn't know what she was talking about because she wouldn't have watched it. She yeah, she'd have been like Yeah, no. No, she would have watched it and she'd be like, Meredith, what the fuck is this? She would have been like, I don't want to watch this again. Exactly. Exactly. So I just did them by myself. She she wanted to be on it originally because she thought I was gonna talk about heated rivalry. But no. But that has since that's already gone from the past, unfortunately. It is. Um move on to other things. But also, I hope I can upload this because my card is missing, so we might have to put your card on okay, that's fine. On it, because um I had my card lost. We talked about this a couple weeks ago, and then I got a new one, and then it fell out of my purse. And because I have one of those like side cross purses, and it fell out, and I don't know where it went. So then I had to get a replacement, then it got lost in the mail, and so I just had to replace it yesterday because Emma and I went to the bank, and lo and behold, they don't print cards in person anymore for Bank of America. So if you use Bank of America, they don't do it, and you're trying to get a card, you better hope it comes in the mail because they don't do it in person anymore. Which is a fun fact, because I did not know that. We did not know that either. Um because I was telling her, I was like, my bank still does it. Because I've gone to my bank many times because a lot of people, you know, fraud. I've gone to my bank multiple times and gotten printed out the same day. Well, yeah, and I've like had I've had other banks that I've gone to where I have cards at and they print them off there.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Like I don't I didn't understand what the problem was. I was like, hello. So I've been without a card for like three weeks. I'm do I'm doing it somehow. Um I would be losing my mind, honestly. I am losing my mind. Oh, well. But it's okay. Then there's that. I'm using Teresa's card and I just sell her everything that I can buy. And it's been working, but I feel bad because I want my own card. Yeah. So I can like, you know, buy stuff without having to worry about it. You want your independence. And having to ask somebody every single time, hey, can I use your card? Oh, can I do this? Hey, can I do this? You know. Right. So it's fine, everything's chill. Um, but we're gonna get into our new show that we're starting that I'm so excited about. I know. Um, which is Young Royals. Young Royals! Um, for those who have not heard of the show before, which I feel like many of you probably have not, um, it is a Swedish show. Yeah. Um, I don't remember exactly where it aired on. I think it just aired on Netflix. I think it's just I think it's just a Netflix show. Um, and it came out I think right around COVID time or like right after COVID. It was like one of those. It was something around there because you told me about it, and you're like, oh my gosh, I just found this new show. I mean, I watched it in like a day. Yeah, like it was just that good. You you told me about it, I was like, oh, okay, I'll check it out. I think I also watched it in one day, and I was like, holy shit. Yeah, it's just it's just that good. It's so good. And I am going to state my opinion. I like this a lot more than heated rivalry. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Um it's just the storyline is more cohesive. I guess there's so many more like little details. Yeah, and I feel like the story itself is also just a lot more relatable in a certain sense to a lot of people. You know, right. Because I don't play hockey. Yeah, I don't play hockey. I mean, I'm not a royal either, but I feel like the idea in the storyline itself is very much. But uh, this is episode one titled Episode One. Meredith is like, what's the title? Like, or what's the episode called? And I said episode one. She's like, no, no, no, what's episode one call? And then I looked at the TV and it literally says episode one. I said, Oh. Okay. Because usually, like, there's something. Shows always have something. They always have like a title. And usually the first episode's always like the pilot episode. At least it says pilot. No, it just says episode one. So, yeah. But I'm really excited to talk about this. This show is my heated rivalry, like 100%. Me too. I'm absolutely obsessed. And I will say, if this episode, you know, brings you to end up watching the show, please do yourself a favor and watch it in its original language. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. Do not watch it in English with the dove. It's not bad. I've tried to I no, just don't do it. It's just, it bothers me when their mouths don't line up. Yes. That's one of my biggest with pet peeves. Yes. And then I feel like also because it's two different languages, then the inflections on their face don't line up. They don't line up. With the voice emotions. Yes. And it just So, I mean, if you want to watch it English, that's fine. Like, I'm not hating. If that's what gets you to watch it, then go for it. But the original language suggests to you. The original language is where it's at. 100%. So So, um, but anyways, without further ado, let's get into it. Let's jump into this episode. Yeah. Um, so we start out with Willem. Mm-hmm. Just out partying, right? We have this sense of back and forth where he's clearly in the back of this car, somebody's driving him. You don't know who he is yet, right? Like you know nothing about him at this point. Yeah. Um, but you can clearly see he's somebody of some sort of like fame, right? Because people are taking pictures of him. Yeah, they're outside the car, and there's this lady in the car, and he's like, Do I have to make this press really like this announcement? Like, do I have to say this? And she's like, Yes. You have to say basically part of your job. Right. And in the flashbacks, he like all of a sudden starts getting into a fight at this party and he like headbutts someone or something, which is so like crazy guy. That's so crazy. Imagine his headbutting someone. Yeah, so that was actually crazy. I thought, okay. Um, but yeah, just the fact that he's clearly going through it. Oh, yeah. We don't know anything about him at this point, other than the fact that he's clearly somebody of importance. Yes. Because of these people trying to take pictures of him and that he's gonna be doing this like conference. This like exactly so then he gets back to his like family's house and everything, and they're basically getting him ready for like a big old speech. Right, and there's that's destiny. There's journalists and cameras everywhere, there's a whole makeup team trying to cover up like the scratches on his face from the fight. Yeah, like I'm guessing the night before. Yeah, and it it's just so hectic. Like, there's so many people milling around and just doing things, trying to get this all set up just in just to take a video, just one video, just for him to apologize in front of everybody. And so basically, we find out that they're a royal family and his parents are making him they created the speech for him and just handed it to him. And they're like, you have to read this, basically. And in this address to the public, they are enrolling him in a boarding school. Yeah. And being he's gonna be sent away to a boarding school, and they basically give him no choice. They're like, Well, everything you do reflects on the family. Yeah. So basically we're like, hey, you fucked up way too many times. Uh we're just sending you. We're sending you, and he's like, I'm not going. And his mom's like, just be quiet. Yeah. Like, just she's like, literally, just shut up. Just stop talking. Anything you're saying right now means nothing to us. Um We've already made up our minds and you're you're gone. You're gonna go. And he this entire episode, he does not want to be there at all. No. But even in the address, they're like, okay, you can start whenever, and you can tell that he's just checked out. He just has he he he clearly doesn't want to do it. No, like at all. But he has to make it seem like he also helped make that decision. Like, my parents and I came to the conclusion and I'm going to enroll at this new boarding school. Yeah. Even though it was not his decision at all. And it was the fact too that also the parent, I think it was the mom that said it. She made it very rare. She's like, Eric is the crown prince, but he used to have responsibilities now. Yes. And in all of this. So it seems like the summer before, whatever, he didn't have any responsibilities. And all of a sudden he's having all these responsibilities. Yeah. No. So because Eric is his brother, the older brother, so he's the crown prince, he's next in line. Yep. But Wilhelm still has stuff. Responsibilities. He still has things he still proved with said family. And you know, they basically say to him that being a prince is a privilege and you need to start acting right. Yeah. Tis the boarding school. Exactly. And then after the address, the way he looks right into the camera, mm-hmm. Ooh. It gets me every time. I'm just like, this is good. Like he he stares right into your soul. Yeah. Well, and then about him staring into the camera, like, as he's speaking, I like how the camera just like zooms in on his face. Like that's all you're paying attention to, right? Because before you were looking at the whole family, you're seeing how they were as he was speaking, but then they really just make you focus in on how he's feeling and what he's feel like looking like and all that kind of stuff. Because I really like that. When you look into his eyes, you can tell that he's so detached from what's happening. He's just not even there. He's just going through the motions because he has to.

SPEAKER_01

Yep.

SPEAKER_00

Which is probably something he's always had to do because they're always in the public eye. Oh yeah. So they always I'm sure that's it. No. Like at all. So like every decision they make, people know about it. So I just think he's this is just like a routine thing. Yeah. He's just like, okay, whatever, I'm gonna do it. But then they pull up to the school and they're just doing photo ops. Like everyone. Wait, actually, yeah, can you just hold that suitcase real fast for for the print? And then, okay, you just do that, and then we're just gonna do this. I'm like, right? Are you kidding me? I'm like, so I I didn't realize this was a whole photo op. Mm-hmm. Like, I thought he was just going to the school and you know being dropped off, whatnot. But they're like, okay, let's repeat that, let's go back, and now I want you to hold the bags. Okay, stand there, stand there. And they like, and it just reminds me, like, every single day, like all these like influencers or people like out and about, they just do that stuff. They'll show up to a place, take a couple pictures, snap a couple pictures, and leave. Yeah. And like that's their day. And they're like, Oh, I was here, it was so much fun. I'm like, No, you weren't, you left, you know, like actually you weren't there. You didn't do anything, that never happened. Like the same thing with these pictures that they're taking, right? Right. That never happened. Wilhelm wanted to carry a suitcase, he wanted to do his own thing, he wanted to not do those pictures. Well, because he wants to feel normal. Yes. Like he literally just wants to feel normal. Yes. And all this stuff is going on, and it's doing the exact opposite of what he wants. Exactly. Like everything is staged, everything has to look a certain way. Oh, and he hates it. Yes, he absolutely hates it. Hates it so much. So then we get inside and they're shaking like all the hands of like the headmasters, the uh professors, all that kind of stuff. Yeah, and then there's another photo op. They're like, okay, we need to go back and we want to get a picture of you shaking hands with the house mistress or whatever it is. Yeah, they basically just kept going down the line again. Yes. Taking all the pictures. And I'm like, this is so tiring. No wonder he's crashing out and getting into fights. He has all this pressure, and he's expected by the public to act a certain way. His family expects him to act a certain way, and he has no desire. I know if that was me, I'd crash out for sure. Oh, I would also crash out. I'd be like, so what do you mean? Like you can figure it out, edit something, I don't know. And he also like stuff. He also just doesn't have an outlet to express that at all because again, he's surrounded by people who are just going through the motions. Like, in my head, I'm just like, do they not feel the same way? Do they not also feel this frustration with being in a royal like the royal family and they have all these responsibilities and they have all these photo ops, or are they just like used to it? I feel like they're used to it, but also they probably do think about it, but I don't know. I I don't know how people go through the emotions. I don't know. I wonder if it's also because he's the youngest. So and then all of a sudden, like all these responsibilities were just put on him, so now it's just overwhelming. Yeah. And it's causing him to crash out. I don't know. I would crash out too though. Yeah. There's so many different reasons to crash out. Right. And then they have a whole ceremony just to welcome him to the school, and they walk into this church and everyone's looking at him and they're whispering and whatnot. And going back even to the like the photo op, that's where we meet August. God damn, I hate that man. And fucking hate him with a passion, a burning passion. Well, you'll find out why. But he's just he's just a fucking snob. Okay, even if you know nothing about him and you just watch the first 15 minutes of the show, you would automatically already hate him. Like he just He's a privileged little piece of shit. He's a little bitch. Like, I I just I can't stand him. I he he has such an ego about him. He his face pisses me off. Like just the his smug little face. It's a smug little face. He reminds me of like a rat troll. I don't know. Because he he's really close with Eric, the brother, and so he thinks he has like all these like cool, cool responsibilities, and he's so noble and all this shit. Which is crazy because low-key he is. That's the thing. Like, like August as a whole, he actually has a lot of responsibilities in the family. They just don't talk about it a lot until later. A lot later. But uh he does. So like the entitlement, yeah, it's kind of there, like, because he does have it. But I hate the way he goes about it. But yes, it's the way he goes about it. Yeah. Like Eric, you can't, like, he knows that he's important. Yes. But he's respectful about it. Respectful, noble, uh. And he's kind. Yes. Yeah. That's the thing about August. He's mean. No, he's mean as fuck. There's nothing about him. He just gives like spoiled frat boy. Yes, he's a little he's a little brat. And he's got he's he's a fucking snake. Yes. He is the worst. I cannot stand him. It's just the way he acts. He acts like a little bitch, and I can't stand it. Unfortunately, it only gets worse. Oh yeah, it only gets worse, guys. It only gets way worse. Um only way worse. Way, way worse. But we're in the church or whatever, and this is the first smile we see from um Willem is when he sees Felice for the first time since and he was like, Well, why are you smiling at her? And uh they were he was like, Oh, I just know her from preschool. Right all the way back then. But that's the first smile you see. He's like, he saw somebody that he knew. It reminded him to me, I think it reminded him of a time where it was just like not royalty, just normal, just a kid. Yeah. So I think for him, like he saw her and it was like, oh my gosh, like, yeah, I remember her from that time. Like that was a good time. And she like waves at him and it's like, but that's just like a cute little like interaction with each other. Yeah, and I really like that moment. Yeah. Um, but then we they start singing and everything. Mm-hmm. We hear um Simone for the first time. Oh my god, he is so cute! Adorable. He's the cutest person I've ever seen in my life. Like, I don't know if it's the curls on top of his head with his smile, with his name. Is this everything? His nose is so cute. He's just a cutie patootie. He is the most cutie patootieist um person. So they're all singing, he starts singing, and the guys behind are like, you need to sing louder. I can't hear you, be louder. Because everyone at the school is a fucking snob. Yes, they're little rich bitches. And so someone's just like, okay, sure, whatever. And starts singing louder. And he sounds so good. It does. He's beautiful, he's a pretty healthy voice. And as he's singing, Will him smile gets so! Oh my god, my butthole is literally clenching right now. Like I this is so fucking cute. He really said, um, so I want him, JK, he doesn't know what is going on through his head. He just knows that he likes him singing. He's just like, I I love this. This is bringing me peace. Like he's just enjoying the moment. Yes. And Simon or Simone is singing this beautiful, beautiful solo, and it keeps zooming in on their faces. And it's just it's just such a cute moment. It's just the first moment you get between the two of them, and it cannot be beat because there's not even a word spoken between the two of them yet. And I'm already just like sitting here like, yes, thank you. I know, I know.

unknown

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_00

Ugh, so good. And then after this performance, this is when we find out that Smoone is a um what do they call it? A non-res? Non-res kid. Or he basically a commuter. Yeah. In in short words. He's he commutes to school. He doesn't live on campus with everybody else. Yeah. So it's basically like a college, you know, when people would stay on campus, live on campus, versus live off campus. But like they think it's like a dirty thing. Well, because it this is me, quote, I have air quotes right now. This isn't it is a dirty thing because if you're living off campus, it means you can't afford to live on campus, which means you're poor. So therefore you are a dirty person. Therefore, you don't even you shouldn't even really be there. Yeah. So they they view him as someone who's like a big outsider, dirty. Yeah. And you can just tell, and you're just like they treat him so poorly. They're terrible to him, like, oh no, and then the audacity of August to go up to him and be like, hey, you you're you're non-res, right? You probably have all these connections for for alcohol and shit. And I'm just like, are all these non-res people like just pack mules? Are they just like basically they just have connections to all these drug dealers and all these people selling alcohol? Yeah. Like, what? I'm so confused. What where does that equate? They're the rich ones, can't they just go out and buy alcohol? I don't know, but they're wild for that. I was like, the rich people, I feel like they're they're the ones who are gonna have all the connections. They're always doing the shady shit. Always. Always. I mean, I mean someone doesn't even he doesn't even drink. No, at all. But like the audacity to think he's dirty, and then all of a sudden be like, hey, so I know you probably. Have like connections to like drugs and yeah and alcohol. And then the other friends to be like, they're like like whenever he walks away and they're like, oh man, he remember when he tried to say what's up to us or tried to say hi to us, like, oh god. God forbid. Hi. I was like, what the fuck? God forbid someone say hi on the first day at school. Holy shit. What? Somebody fuck off. Like I would say that to anybody like in high school or college or whatever. I'd be like, if somebody looked at me or whatever, or we were just passing by and I like any of them from class or something, I'd be like, hey, or like, hi, what's up? You know? I wouldn't expect them to be best friends with me. No. But it's just like a thing you do. It's like a friendly, like, hey, what's up? Like, how's it going? Right. Like he's just trying to make friends with us. Let him live. Yeah. And for them to live. And for them to be like, oh, ugh, it's disgusting. He said, what's up? Like the ada audacity to say that when you look like that, bro. Shut up. Literally, you are so ugly. Shut up. Yes. Like, I can't. The the really badly bleached looking hair of the guy that said that. First of all, fix your hair before you speak about someone like that. Ugh. The odd literally everyone in the screen. You can never have someone's hair. Never. No. But so many people at the school, all they have is the audacity. Like, that's all they have. They they have nothing else to live for. No, they're all like stingy, rude people. Yeah. So I'm just like, okay, cool, cool, cool, cool. Um, and then there's the part with Eric and Wilhelm, like when they run away, there's like reporters. Oh, yeah. To me, that was like a really cute part because you don't see much of Eric really in like a lot of this, and so you're like, okay, like genuinely, like, Eric's a good brother. Yeah. He looks out for his brother while also doing his royalty. And you can tell he's also frustrated by all like the cameras and the the photo ops. You know, he's just like, okay, yeah, you just gotta do it. It's it's like he knows, like you were talking about earlier. It's like, well, do they understand that they're in royalty, that they even like it, do they whatever? And it's like for Eric specifically, I think he doesn't like it, but he knows that's what he has to do and he'll do it. Yeah. And that's just the difference between the two of them. Exactly. Like, he he doesn't like it, but he's gonna do it. And he finds a way to kind of navigate it. He's like, Alright, I'm gonna give you your photo ops, but not too many, because this is ridiculous. And so he's like, Okay, on three we run away. And then they oh they run away. They run away. So weird, by the way, uh, the way they all ran. I know. They were all running like their arms straight out, like, shh. I know. I was like, why are we running like this? It was all of them. It was it was Willem and Eric and also the guard that was running after them. Yeah. They were all running like that, and I stuff like they're trying to get away real fast. They also like fell up the hill.

unknown

They did.

SPEAKER_00

I was like, okay. Alright. I think they did that and then they just kept it in. Yeah. Like when they were filming. Which is funny. Because like I like it when they do that stuff. That would happen. Another thing I like is you can see their actual skin textures. Like it's not like all skin. Oh my gosh, yes. Like you can actually see every single person. Yeah. Like you can just tell they're just a person. Like their natural skin texture. We I again talking about things we don't see in shows a lot is that. Yes. Because it's always like super polished. Oh, everyone in this show looks super. Or everybody's wearing makeup all the time. Yes. And in the show, they're not. I mean, for me personally, I don't wear makeup every day. No. I don't have the energy to do that every single day. No. And in the show, you can clearly tell that everybody's not wearing makeup. Yeah. Like if they are, it's very minimal. Yeah. And if they aren't wearing makeup, you can just tell, yeah, they've had a rough ass day. A terrible day. And even if they are wearing makeup, you can still see their natural skin textures. And like if they have freckles, you can see that under the makeup still. Like it it's just it's just nice to see. It's just a beautiful moment, honestly. And then we get to um them going and dropping Villemov. Yes. In in the dorm. That was such a sad scene. Um because those dorms, those little dorm rooms are like prison cells. Yeah. They're so small. I mean, like the room we're in right now, it was like half the size. Half the size. Because there was enough for a bed and to like and like a desk. Yeah. That was it. So I'm just like very small. Yeah. And when Willem was like, oh man, three years, I have to spend three years here of my life and everything. Eric's basically just like, yeah, do it, get it done, you know. Like I did it. Yeah. You'll be fine. It'll be yeah. At least you don't have a roommate. Like, cause Eric was saying, I didn't get my own room until I was in my year three here. But you get your own room now. So like you don't even have to share. Mm-hmm. Like, just it's a good one. Which I also think is really interesting. Yeah. Because like, why why is he getting his own room? They're like giving him his like special privileges. Yeah. Versus Eric. Because Eric is the crown prince. So in royalty aspect, Willem really means nothing. Yeah. So t f for to understand how bad like Willem's messed up to get his own room like that after Eric had a share of room and he was the the crown prince. So literally is crazy. They said, Oh, this guy though. They said, so he needs his own room. He's gonna crash out. We're gonna have a guard outside at all times. He n No for real. They really made it prison for him. Yes. And crazy word. The the guard is outside and like they're inside and one's like, don't leave, don't leave. And he's like clinging onto them and they're like giggling and like laughing. This guard's probably like, what the fuck? He's probably like, what the hu- He's probably used to it. But you can just tell that they have a lot of love for each other. They do. And through and through it all, you know. Mm-hmm. They they care. And then we get to the horses. Yes. This is where we finally get to meet Felice a little bit more, and we get to meet Sarah, which is uh Simon's sister. Yes. Um, both two very different people. Very different people. Yes. Um so in this scene we get to see Sarah really working with the horses, and she clearly has a better connection with these horses. Because she takes care of them. Yeah, God forbid. Like she's in the stables like taking care of the horses. Horses know, animals know that thing. Yeah, you know. So um, and you know, Sarah's just trying to be nice, and she's literally like, fuck off, get away. She she realizes that she's bad with the horses. Yeah. She knows she's not good with them. No, and so she hates Sarah for that. Yeah, for sure. Because she has a connection with her horse. Uh-huh. It's supposed to be Felice's horse. Uh-huh. And so she's upset because the horse likes Sarah better. And it's because Sarah takes care of them. Yes. She takes care of the horse. And so she's in there like grooming the horse afterwards. And Felice is like, I can groom my own horse. Like, I I can do it. I bet you it's the first time she picked up a brush. Probably. And she like ripped them off of her hands. Yes. I was like, damn, chill out, bro. And I was like, calm down. Literally, calm down. Calm, calm down. And then Sarah's like, oh, do you want me to like scrape the hooves out or something? And Fleece says something snarky. She's like, Yeah, there's but probably a bunch of dirt in there after five minutes in the in the room. Yeah, like okay. She just wanted to clean your horse up. Right, and so and so she starts doing it and she's like, I said no. I'm like, so actually you didn't? Yeah. Say no. She's she's like, uh no, what? Like, what are so Sarah's just like, okay. Whatever. And Simone's right there. He shows up and he's like, alright, are you ready to go? Like she's like, yeah. Because they gotta go to the bus. They gotta make it, and they do. They run. They do. They run to the bus. They get they get on the bus. And we um we then get to that one scene with felice. Literally, right as it showed up into the screen, I remembered instantly, I said, oh god, like this scene just gives me secondhand embarrassment. I totally forgot that this scene was real. Um so this is a scene of Felice just masturbating. Which literally, literally, in any other context, I've been like, okay, sure, whatever. But it's just to a fucking fact that it's to a singular picture of the print. Only clothes. And it's from him that day arriving at the school. Mind you, window open, and she has a roommate. The roommate's in the shower. The roommate just walks in and she's got her hand in her fucking pants. And I'm like, girl, what are you doing? Um over over a picture. Mind you. Like, like she she we even see in this first episode, she is down bad. Um, yes. It's so bad. It's kind of terrible. Um, so bad that she's literally masturbating to a fully grown. Fully grown, fully clothed. Fully clothed picture. Sure. And it's the picture of when he's out by the suitcases and he's like standing by like the standing emoji by himself. I'm like, what? I'm like, so that turns you on. I'm like, what is that? That's that makes you want to rub your vagina right now. Like, that's what's happening. Rub your vagina. That makes you want to stick your hand in your pants. Yeah. And and do a little dance. Are you serious, right now? Yeah. Apparently. That's crazy. That's what made me embarrassed about the entire scene. I'm like, what do you what do you mean you're I just can't get over the fact that her roommate can walk in at any time, and there's also the window's just wide open. Yeah. Someone could see. And then her whole conversation with her roommate. Which, mind you, I forgot that the actress that plays her roommate, she speaks only English. I don't know if you noticed the entire time. She speaks only English. If you go back and watch that entire scene, you'll notice she's the only one that speaks English the entire scene. I didn't realize that. Oh my gosh. Um No wonder I understood her so well. Bro, I'm a dumbass. Literally, what the fuck? Because anytime uh Felice would be speaking in like uh the Swedish language or whatever, she would answer back in English and it would keep going like that, back and forth, back and forth. Now that you say that, I do real. And so, like whenever she pops up in any other scene throughout the series, you'll just know she only speaks English. It's at the fun it's a fun little fact. I'll have to keep an eye out for that. But even she was like talking about, oh well, you know, you're over here watching porn. So I know she's a regular act, I guess, because Oh, I guess, I guess it is. Because that's probably not the only picture she did that to. I mean, there's plenty of them. Yeah. Plenty of them. She probably has one for every fucking day. God damn. A different picture for every day. That's cool. He gets that many photos taken, so probably. She's like, oh yes, we'll have on Monday, we'll have on Tuesday, we'll have on Thursday. Literally every day of the week, she has a different picture. She's like, This is my Monday picture. Maybe that's why she doesn't get bored. Maybe that's why she's able to get off with one picture. I guess, because there's a different picture every day. She's like, oh my god, new picture update. Mm-hmm. And her roommate's like, Okay, are you gonna come to dinner? She's like, No. And then we see her posting like great day at the stables with her and a horse, and she looks so sad as all these comments are being like, Oh my god, what a great life, or you look like you're having so much fun. And you can tell she's not. No. Well, those photos are fake. Anyways. Anyway, past that, then we get to the house of Sarah and Simone. Yes. And they're like trying to set up for dinner, and Sarah's in there, she's like, make sure, make sure the knife is facing to the left or towards towards the plate. You gotta do this, you gotta do this. And she's trying to take all these practices from the school and take them home because I think she feels ashamed and she wants to fit in. So she's trying to get her family to like mold into this or form into this mold of like all the all these rich people because she wants she wants to fit in. I think that's she wants to fit in. Well, I think it's that, but also you learn a little bit later that she has like Osbergers and everything. Yeah, she's autistic. Yeah. Which also puts into place a lot of needing to fit in, or people do this, so I must do this. No, literally, so she like sees all these people doing this, she's like, well, if all these people do it, then we should do it. So she's doing that, and even as they're like eating dinner, she tells her mom to sit up. Well, her mom had her foot practically on the table, or like she the way she was sitting, her knee was like all the way up or whatever. Oh, I didn't even see that. Yeah, her knee was like all the way up, kind of like like up like that. Oh my god. Like she told her basically to put it down. Yeah, so she put her leg back on the ground. Yeah, but the fact that her mom listened to her and then didn't say anything about it was crazy. I said, Oh, it's probably a regular occurrence of her being like, um, you need to do this, you need to do this. And they're just kind of like chatting at the dinner table, and is that is that one of their friends that's there at dinner? Yeah. So one of their friends is there that lives around the area, and they're just kind of like eating dinner, and her mom is like, So, have you made any friends? And all of a sudden she just like starts crashing out. Well, she specifically said she doesn't ask if she if there's any friends, she specifically asked, and she says, Are there any new girls? Oh, yeah. She specifically asked, she's like, Are there any new like girls? Have you made any girlfriends or whatever? Yeah. And Sarah's first remark back is she's like, Mom, there's also boys there. Which I'm like, that's a weird thing to say. Like, yeah, yeah, there's boys there. Yeah. So like she was just asking if you made any new, like, you know, had any new friends that were girls, and she's like instantly crashing out being like, there's also boys there. Like, I wonder if she has problems trying to become friends with other girls. I I don't know. I I I can't say stuff. Okay, um, I I don't remember the show very well because I watched it a while ago. You watched it multiple times. I've only seen the show once. So I think we'll we'll come to that, I guess. She she's got some stuff. Emma Emma will tell me after we're done recording. So and then and then I'm gonna be like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Um but yeah, they're eating dinner and they're dinner just in general. Like if I was there, I would love it. Yeah. I would love to sit there and eat pasta. It looks very homey, very good. It is very homey, very just family oriented. Yeah, and it's a very cute little house. And it's just like a comfortable little community that they have. Like even Sarah having her crash out, family moment, you know. Like the family is just like, yeah, okay. Yeah, okay. Even their friend was just like, okay. Yeah, they're like, alright, typical. Like, I think they're just moving on, you know. Yeah, they it's just it's just a nice moment from like what this dinner is like, and then we pan over to the dinner at the school. Yeah, very different. Nine day they're all standing there waiting for their headmaster so they can actually eat. Yeah. And the craziest part to me is they don't all don't just eat, they wait for each class. Yeah. So the people that have been there longest, they get their food first. It's like it's a hierarchy. Yeah, and I'm like, what the fuck is this? Yeah, and they like sit in order of like class one, class two, class three. Yeah. So like the class threes are like at the head of the table, and then class ones are all the way down, and Willem walks in, and August is like, yeah, you gotta go sit at the end of the table with the year once. Because I remember when I first watched that, I said, to me, or at this point, I already figured August always wants him right next to him. Like he wants him as close as possible. Yes. So when he's like, hey, you gotta go all the way down there, I was like, oh. I was like, oh, this is new. You know, I was like, oh, you don't want him right next to you, like a little puppy dog? Like Right, because like earlier in in the episode, he's always around him constantly. Like he's like, I have to take care of him. You know, I want to have him at the side, at the side, at the side. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, bro, till you come to realize how formal dinner is. Yes. Because breakfast seems to be very informal, lunch is very informal, but the dinner is formal. Yeah. Because I I think that's the meal that has like the housemaster or the house every time mistress or whatever they call him. So they they have to wait, and then they all like he he he's talking to the first years. Yeah, and this whole thing was he's talking about you know, what do we do after dinner? Like, what do we do during meals? And they're kind of talking to him, and after dinner, they're like, Yeah, we do this and this and this, it's kind of boring. And he was like, Oh, that sounds fun. And they're like, Oh yeah, yeah, it is fun. And he's like, I was just joking with you guys, and they're like, Oh, we were just talking to, and then he's like, You guys can have your own opinions. Like, every everyone is like trying to like agree with him as if they're he's gonna cut their head off or something. Like this, bro, he's like, You guys can have your own opinions, you don't have to agree with me. Yeah, which I think is a nice thing to see because I feel like going into the school, everyone's just like, oh my god, like oh my god, he's so perfect, he's so he literally doesn't give a fuck. He's just like, what the fuck? And he also knows he's not perfect, clearly. That's why he's just why he's there. He literally got into a huge fight at a party. He's just like, okay, you guys are stupid. He's just like, you guys can have your own opinion. Like he's just doing his own thing, he's just trying to make it through. Poor guy. And then to him back in the dorm room, him looking at himself in one of the pictures, and then texting his mom, being like, please, literally, please, mom, can I come home? Literally tore me apart. I said, no, stop. Because he was just looking at one of the pictures from the photo ops and he's just like damn. He's like, I hate this shit. No, literally, he and his mom is just like No, you're gonna say. Uh I felt I feel bad for him though. Oh, instantly, yeah. Like, he's just he just wants to go home. Yeah. Which, if my parents randomly told me, hey, we signed you up for boarding school, have fun, I'd be like, damn, what the hell? I'd be like, so what do you mean? I'd be like, what do you mean? You just signed me up for boarding school and you just shipped me away. That's how it kind of felt when I moved, low-key. Cause they didn't ask for our opinion, they just said, hey, we're moving. What do you what do you mean? What do you mean if we're moving? You didn't. So for any kid out there that's moved because maybe of like a military family or whatever or whatnot, um, you probably know how that feels. Um, it's not great because they don't ask your opinion because you don't really have a choice. No, they're just like, alright, in the map, whatever. They'll be like, so we're leaving. Okay. Oh, okay. Um can't really argue with that because I'm 16 years old and uh you're my income. So I guess I'm gonna go. Um, bye-bye. No, literally. So I I understand him for sure. Yeah. This is when we get to class the next day. This is one of my favorite scenes. And okay, it starts off so weird though, because they're ranking like crimes, and they put murder as the worst, and then right under that was rape and child molestation, and I was like, personally, I feel like those are worse than murder. That's just me. I mean a lot of times with murder that stuff also happens. Yeah. So they're kind of like collectively all in one. I mean, I wouldn't necessarily say one's worse than the other. They're all just kind of terrible. I mean. Yeah. I agree with that. A lot of people, you know, that have been raped, they want to die, so therefore you basically murdered somebody anyways, you know what I mean? So I don't know, it's just like a lot of murder their spirit. Yeah. I was like, they may be alive in a sense, but they're not really there anymore, you know. Yeah. So I don't know. I feel like they're kind of like at a standstill. Because like if somebody were to be like, hey Emma, would you rather this happen right now to you or this? I'd be like, neither. Neither. I don't want either thing to happen to you. Because the fuck? No, not really. So it was just wild sweet. We were ranking all of this in class, and I was just like, so which makes you just put you in even to more perspective that they don't know the real world. Yeah. Right? Because like they they don't understand the the real world out there. No. And how one thing could be worse than the other. Oh, murder, obviously it's the worst thing, you know. Yeah. They probably haven't seen the other thing. You know, or like just the different hierarchy stuff that they start talking about. Like, and getting into like the welfare or um tax fraud. Yeah. And all these people are saying, like, well, you know, all these poor people just want handouts from the government and all blah blah blah blah blah. And then Simone, like, he bashes real hard. He's like, he's like, so we know that there's only one person in this room that benefits from taxes and welfare and all that kind of stuff, and then literally turns around and looks Willem straight in the face, and he's like, mm-hmm, you buddy. And literally, he's like and he's like, So why can rich people commit tax fraud, but when poor people do it, it's the end of the world. Like, no, but he's so blocking that team. He's so real though, because why? Why did they why did they get to do whatever the fuck they want, but when poor people, you know, use welfare or something like that, you know, they they're called handouts from the government and they're lazy and all this other stuff, like the hypocrisy is oh, it's diabolical. Fucking crazy. Um, so I loved his call out moment so much. And apparently Wilhelm did too. Yeah. Because then we get to the next scene, and he's like, I wanna go sit by him. Yeah, like he was so drawn to him, and I said, Yes, go do because it's just a cutie little bitch, and he just sat down, he Just like hey. He's like, I uh he's like, uh, I didn't know you were uh I forget what the actual term was, but he's like, Oh yeah, um, I didn't know you basically like stayed here, you ate here. Oh yeah, because he's like I didn't know you were part of this house because they had different houses. That's what it was, and he's like, I'm not, but he's like non-re res kids have to eat somewhere, right? And it just silenced him instantly. And Wilhelm was like re it was basically like you could see in his head he was trying to restart. Yes. He was just kind of like, Okay, he's like, Well, I don't think we actually formally introduce ourselves. Um I'm Wilhelm, you know, what's your name? Yeah, and so they like kind of introduce themselves, and he's like, I like I like what you said in class. Yeah. And someone's just kind of like, Okay, okay, cool. And then he's like, Well, why didn't you say anything in class? And then he's like, Well, I can't really get political. And I was like, Bro, yeah. Okay, and August, fucking August, he sees that Wilhelm is talking to Simone, and again, we've talked about this, but he's seen as dirty because he's non-res. Yes. And August is like, hey, Wilhelm, why don't you come sit up here? Mm-hmm. You little jealous bitch. Bitch. You little slut. I was like, that was so rude. Just let him talk to him if he wants to. I don't see what the fucking issue is, bro. Like, what's what's the big deal? What's the fucking hoop? Oh, I don't even. He makes me so mad, but I love that scene. That's no, for real. And then and then August is like, yeah, sorry, I had to rescue you from your situation. Rescue Rescue from what? He's not a damsel in distress. Literally, I'm like, he's just talking to him. Yeah. Like, like, what's the fucking issue with these people? Holy shit. Yeah, no, it's wild. And we go outside. Oh god. And this is when Simone's like, hey, I'll get you booze for this party and initiation for Wilhelm if like to August if you let me and Sarah come to the party. Yeah. And Wilhelm's just not Wilhelm, August is just like, yeah, okay. Like, look out for your DMs then, cool. Get it, get it. Like, get it then. Yeah. And so before this, we we hear someone talking to his friend about, you know, going and his dad's, right? Mm-hmm. And he's like, you know, I wouldn't, I wouldn't go there, even though you're looking for alcohol, I wouldn't go there, because every time you go there, like, it fucks you up, man. Mm-hmm. Um, he decides to go there anyways. Yeah. And his dad is clearly an alcoholic. And he goes into the apartment, and his dad's just like, oh my gosh, it's like really good to see you. And you can tell Simone's just very detached. He's just like, yeah. He doesn't want to be there at all. No, he does not. And like his dad is trying to clean up everything. He's like, sorry, I didn't realize I was gonna have such a distinguished guest over today. And he's picking up these liquor bottles, and there's like trash. All of his cigarette buds. Yes, and there's like lighters everywhere. And Simone's like trying to pick up the lighters and put them away. And you can tell he feels awkward just sitting there. And his dad's like, so how's how's school? Like, how's the new school? And so he he at least knows, like, he's kind of updated on what's going on what's going on in his life, yeah, but they don't have a good connection, they don't have a good relationship. No, no, and and that whole thing with him just I mean, blatantly being able to ask him for alcohol is crazy. Uh-huh. First off. And then second, the fact that the dad's like, okay, yeah, sure. No, literally is crazy. I said, What? Because at first his dad was like kind of concerned, and then Small's just like, Well, I don't drink. And it's not for me. It's not for me. And then his dad's like, okay, yeah, I can get you some. Bro, what the fuck? Yes. Like, and the fact that he was so confused and he was like, he's like, I remember a time when uh, you know, you get alcohol to uh impress some girls, and it's like he's like dad on the gay. He's like, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, well, some cute boy then. And Song just kind of like smirks a little bit. He's like, Okay, yeah, it's funny. But like, even though his dad sucks, at least he's supportive of him being gay, he literally does not give two fucks. Yeah. Which is nice. Yeah. That alcoholic, good father, er, but alcoholic, yes. Um, supportive of the gays, yes. Yes. So, um, where do we draw the line? Um exactly. But the thing is, it's like we never get anything more from his dad. No. Like ever. He's just kind of like outcast as a as a bum and an alcoholic. Yeah. And that's it. That's exactly all you ever get. Yeah, we don't really get anything else. Um, and after this, we cut to the craziest fucking shit I've ever seen in my life. Um Miranda's face was so unreal. So they're they're basically hazing. Yeah. It's like it's like a big frat party. It is a frat hazing. It's a big frat hazing event. And August and his little third-year buddies kidnap the prince. Wilhelm, yeah. They're all in clown masks. They're dragging him.

SPEAKER_01

Enough.

SPEAKER_00

Yes, and he's like screaming, and they're dragging him, and they like tie him up to the statue, and they're like throwing shit at him. And oh my the part that's so disgusting. Fucking god, they're all spitting in this cup, and then they make him drink it in a way. I would I know. And it cuts to them like walking him like a dog, and they have him gagged, and they're like walking him around this pool. Holy shit, it's so bad. It's so degrading. It's so bad. I would literally feel disgusted. I'm sure he did. He looked disgusted. Like, oh god. Because then afterwards they're like, alright, you made it through. And August is kind of like, hahaya, I thought, you know, you wouldn't want to be treated any different. And he's like, Yeah, but like, not like this, bro. This is crazy. It was so disgusting. I forgot it happened. Yeah, no, it's pretty bad. It was so nasty. And so then they're like, Okay, well, uh, you're officially part of the brotherhood. Here's your um your outfit. Your outfit go change, party starting. And okay. Like, whoa, whoa, whoa! Everything's moving so fast, I just got hazed, and now you want me to party? Yeah, exactly. Like, what the fuck? So he changes into this, and we cut to the party. Got all the lights going, everything. It looks like a bumping party. It does. And Velom is sitting next to August, and August is just like, you know, you're you're not meant to fit in, you're not meant to be normal. This is this is where you belong, and you know, you you can party, but you were in the wrong environment. You know, if we murder someone, no one's gonna bat an eye. And I was just like, whoa, whoa! So we're just saying shit now. He's like, so we're murdering people now, huh? We're just saying shit. We're just doing whatever the hell we want. Like this, no Wilhelm was like, well, I'm just like, what the fuck are you talking about? And the thing is, is like he's talking about how like he's not normal here or whatever, but he's not normal anywhere. No, it didn't matter where he was. No, no, nobody treats him regular, like never, you know, he wasn't gonna get that no matter where he was, whether he's at this boarding school or at some regular school back where he lives. Exactly. He wasn't gonna get treated normal anywhere. No, and that just feels very obvious. Yes, and so then Simone walks in and with his sister and Volum sees him instantly his eyes just lit up. Yes, like a Christmas tree. He's just like, oh, I can enjoy this party now, okay. Yeah, he's like, oh, now I can enjoy this because that little cutie patootie's here. And again, I don't think he realizes like no why he feels like that. He's just like, oh, awesome. Like a guy's here. Yeah, he almost just sees because his life is shit, he hates it. Yeah, no. I feel like he sees someone, he's just like, My little sunshine, my little ray of something that makes me feel human, makes me feel a little bit normal. Cause he doesn't treat him differently, like he doesn't worship at his feet, like he has his own opinions, like he's not doing what everyone else is doing or treating him like everyone else is treating him. So and I think that's why he gets so drawn to him. Yes, because he's like, oh, he makes me feel normal. And then he goes to talk to him and everything. Yeah, and he's like kind of awkward, like, hey, hi, yeah, you know, and uh someone's just like, okay, I'm gonna go now. Right, and he walks out and Willem's just like, oh hell no, uh uh. And he runs after him and he's like, So, um, I was actually gonna go outside. Do you wanna get some fresh air? Get some fresh air with me, come outside. He's like, alright. And so they like climb out of this window, yeah, and they're like going through and they hi they're behind this like cement wall, and they're just kind of talking to each other, um, like just asking each other questions, and someone was like, So, what did you think of my singing? And Volum was like, It was nice, I really liked it, you know. Yeah, he's like, you know, I could hear everyone else singing, but when you sang, I could tell it was from your heart. And he's like, I liked it. Yeah, it was so cute. Oh my god. And someone's like, Well, he asked Simone, you know, do you like it here? And Simone's like, well, do you like it here? He just Uno reversed on him. And he villain very obviously lies and says yes. Yeah. And he's just like it's so unconvincing, yeah. Well, and both in that moment, you can just tell they both don't like it. Mm-hmm. Like Simone didn't answer for a reason. Exactly. He reversed it on him for a reason. Exactly. And then him taking 30 seconds to answer yes, a three-letter word. He clearly loves it, yeah. Clearly loves it, loves it so much. And as they're talking, August and his stupid little buddies are like, Willie, or whatever the fuck they call him. Willy, Willy! Like they're like, Where are you? Where are you? And that's when um Wilhelm's like, oh fuck. Because he does not want to be around them, he does not want to talk to them. And no, so he he like pushes Simone's head down, they're like trying to hide, and he's like, shh, shh, and Simone's not even talking, he's like, shh, she's just that paranoid. He's like, like, he's like, I don't want to talk to them, I don't want to talk to them. And then Simone starts mocking August. He's like, Willie, we and oh my god, their faces are so close. Yes, I felt the tension. I did too. So bad. Well, and the fact that uh what's his face? Uh blah blah oh my god, um, August. He's like, Oh, I wonder if he's out kissing a girl. And they're just staring at each other. Like I'm just like, Yeah, he's out kissing a girl, right? He sure is. Sure, yep. Got him. He clocked it. Got him! And then he like has his hand over his m over someone's mouth, and then he like kind of puts it down and he's like grabbing his face. The chin grabbing. Oh my fucking god! Like literally the fact that there's so much tension, they've barely talked. I mean, you can probably fit an entire conversation out of that entire 45-minute episode into like 30 seconds. Yes. And they've looked at each other a couple of times, and yet there's all this tension. What are you talking about? Oh my are you kidding me? God, oh my god. I'm literally so tense right now, like it was so cute. Yeah, and then it and then the episode ends, yeah, and that's it. And oh, we also forgot to mention um Sarah's interaction with Felice with the party. Yeah, so Felice is like out in this hallway, like throwing up, yeah. And Sarah comes out and she's like, oh my gosh, let me help you. And Felice is like, no, like, go away, blah blah blah. Did you notice how Felice said immediately to Sarah, don't tell anybody? Yes. Did you catch on to that? I did. Do you know why she said that? No. Why? Think about think about earlier. She didn't go to dinner. Oh! Yeah, she wasn't drunk at the party. She was making herself throw up. Oh my god. That's why Sarah, that's why when she saw Sarah, she's like, don't tell anybody. Because why would you be embarrassed if you're throwing up if you're drinking at a party? Everybody does it, you know? Oh my god. She was in the corner there by herself because she was doing that. Yeah. Oh. My god. Oh my god. Wow. That um, so yeah, that's that whole scene. That's why Felice was instantly so defensive, and she was like, Oh my god, like, don't tell anybody. I'm not doing anything. Oh my god. Sarah also was just like, Who the fuck am I gonna tell, bro? Yeah, like literally don't talk to anyone. Yeah. And like, and so then when Sarah was calling her like pretty and everything, like, you look so pretty, like all this kind of stuff. You could just see like the genuine like excitement or just like happiness like that Felice had in her eyes. She was like, Oh wow, like thank you, you know? Yeah, and she didn't say thank you, but she was just like, Oh wow, okay, somebody thinks I'm yeah, you know, and so Sarah's like, let's get you some fresh air, and she like opens the window and like they're having like a little a little girlhood moment. Like, I think this in this moment Felice's like, oh okay, like she's actually like really nice. Yeah. Which why wouldn't she be? Just because she's a non-res. Yeah. But people put stuff in your head sometimes, you know? Uh-huh. But I think like in that moment she's just like, oh. Okay, okay, yeah. This is like she's not gonna say anything, and she's helping me, okay, cool, you know. Exactly. But um, this first episode is so crazy, yes. And I can't wait to watch the second one. I know, me too. And then one more thing I forgot too. Uh-huh. Um, which I I pick on more as I watch this show, but um, Wilhelm clearly has like anxiety, some a lot of stuff that we don't they don't even really talk about ever in the show, which is one thing. If I were to critique anything about this entire show, is they don't talk about his mental health that well. But you'll see a lot, he puts his hand over his heart, like a lot. Yeah. Like a lot, a lot. Like through a suit, he'll go through and just kind of like rub a little bit. Yeah. It's almost like a self-soothing. A self-soothing. Or just like kind of like see, like, okay. Like, I'm still alive, I'm still breathing, everything's fine. Like, you know. So, but you'll notice he does that a lot. Yeah, like they don't really talk about it, but you can definitely see. And he has different like uh tick ticks and stuff like tells. Yeah. Yeah. So fun. I'm excited to get through all that. But anyways, yeah, first episode, um Episode one. Ooh ooh. Party. I'm excited to do more. I know. There are a total of three seasons to get through. So this is gonna be exciting, guys. We actually have a final, like a finished series that we're getting through this time. Yes. Um, I'm sad that it's finished, but it's okay. I can watch it as many times as I want. Exactly. Free will. Exactly. Free will, just like I did with heated rivalry. I haven't watched it in a hot minute. I kind of heated rivalried myself out. Whoa. I know. That's crazy. That's a crazy sentence right there. That is crazy. I still love the show, but oh yeah. Sometimes you need a break. I should come circle back around to it. Yeah, I'll come circle back around to it. Don't worry, guys. I mean, when season two comes out, hell yeah. Oh yeah. You'll be watching season one over and over and over again, and season two will come out and you watch that over and over and over again. Exactly, and then I can watch it both together. Exactly. That's exactly what I'm saying. Problem solved. So, yeah, but I hope people like I hope you guys watch the show because it is so good. Like, heated rivalry is good. Don't get me wrong, but this show, oh my god, it's just like a next level to it. I don't know, there is it is, and I think it's because there's so much more detail that happens. Um, because in heated rivalry, there's so many time skips, yes, and it becomes a lot sometimes, I feel like. Yeah, but this one, like it's a steady storyline that you can see progress, it grows, um, you can see the progression personalities of the characters more. So And I feel like the side characters have a lot to do with the plot in the show. Yes, they do, they definitely have more of a purpose. I mean, not to say that the characters in Heather Love really don't have a purpose, but it's not as like travel through. Yeah, it's not as shown. Yeah. So we shall see. But we hope you guys tune in for the second episode. Which is called episode two. Bitch. Holy shit. Watch it be called something different. We didn't even look yet. It's probably watch it be like actually called something. We'll have to see. Probably not. It's probably episode two. Oh, okay. Well, we will see you guys next time, or you will hear us next time. Yes, tune in next time for episode two of Young Royal. Yes. And I always forget this, but we have one social media account. It's on Instagram, it's Tis the Season Pod.
