00:00:06,520 --> 00:00:09,160
Hello and welcome to Big GAY 
Energy. 

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:13,200
I'm Caitlin and I'm Fiora. 
Come along with us while we dive

3
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,320
into the fun and nuances of 
queer media. 

4
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,600
Representation matters and we're
here to talk about it. 

5
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,640
Cheers, queers. 
What's on the big agenda today, 

6
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,720
Theora? 
Today we are concluding Pluto 

7
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,280
the series in our scene by scene
breakdown format. 

8
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,960
Today will be the final 
breakdown of episode 12. 

9
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,560
Oh my gosh, we made it, 
everyone. 

10
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:42,080
It has been a journey. 
I can't believe we're on the 

11
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,120
last episode. 
What are we gonna do? 

12
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:49,040
We're gonna take a break from 
scene by scene breakdowns for a 

13
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,160
bit because our schedules are 
about to get crazy. 

14
00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:53,600
And then the next scene by scene
breakdown we're going to pick 

15
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,640
things up with is Clarabelle the
series because there's so much 

16
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,240
to dive into. 
It's going to be super fun. 

17
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,280
So everyone's homework is to go 
watch Clarabelle if you haven't 

18
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,640
after this airs. 
Yes, get ready for those epic 

19
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,600
breakdowns. 
Yes, get ready for that. 

20
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,320
And then in the meantime, we're 
going to be doing just like a 

21
00:01:11,320 --> 00:01:14,360
few episodes of Girl Love series
that have come out. 

22
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,440
We're going to start up book 
clubs again and just have a 

23
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,960
little bit of fun before we get 
into our next scene by scene 

24
00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:23,880
breakdown. 
Yes. 

25
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,640
So don't go anywhere. 
And before we get into this. 

26
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:32,000
Episode Just a reminder that we 
are doing this fun little 

27
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,960
contest of How long do you think
our notes are? 

28
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,400
So how many? 
Pages are our notes for Pluto. 

29
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,880
Yes, for Pluto. 
Leave them in the comments 

30
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,040
wherever you can comment. 
You can even comment on Spotify.

31
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,440
So how long do you think our 
notes are? 

32
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,160
Even if you submitted a guest 
previously, please just do it 

33
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:53,960
again. 
That'll help me make sure that I

34
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,560
don't miss you. 
I want to make sure that you are

35
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,520
included in this contest if you 
would like to be. 

36
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,560
In it. 
Yes, and just give us, if you're

37
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,520
not submitting this on social 
media, give us like a social 

38
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,800
media handle or a way that we 
can reach out to you if you're 

39
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,560
submitting on YouTube or Spotify
because we can't contact you 

40
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,000
through those platforms. 
So just give us a way to contact

41
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,840
you if you win, because who 
knows, it could be you. 

42
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,120
It could only you can make the 
guess. 

43
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,840
Only you, only you. 
All right, and with that, I 

44
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,600
think let's get into our 
corrections and clownery 

45
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,920
segment. 
Yeah, All right, so we have two 

46
00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:36,840
and they're both from Patreon. 
And this is for our episode 11 

47
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,800
Part 4 discussion. 
So White CAT112 says Oh, no, 

48
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,520
another vocab challenge. 
Serendipitously. 

49
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,080
Yeah, it was. 
It was serendipitously. 

50
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,120
That makes sense. 
Yes. 

51
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,520
Good try my cat. 
Appreciate you. 

52
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,320
Good trying. 
I really do appreciate you 

53
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,640
trying. 
It makes me not feel like I'm 

54
00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:03,920
talking into a void. 
PIM was also sulking at by the 

55
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,800
and by the river. 
Saw the bike and took it back. 

56
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,360
So that's how the bike got back.
Makes sense. 

57
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:14,000
Makes sense. 
I'm gonna say Casola has DID 

58
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,520
which is dissociative identity 
disorder and that's why he 

59
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,160
sometimes seemed very wise and 
sometimes does dumb stuff. 

60
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,360
Same with Paul. 
Yeah. 

61
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,360
So they could have gone to 
therapy together, met in 

62
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,440
therapy, fell in love in 
therapy, and we could have had 

63
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,640
that story going on. 
But no, we were robbed. 

64
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,120
So robbed. 
All right, so white cat has a 

65
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,040
question for us. 
Well, you got White Cat and they

66
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,000
asked who was your favorite 
characters before the analysis 

67
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,920
started and who is it now? 
Like before we started doing the

68
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,640
breakdown episodes. 
Yes, my favorite character 

69
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,000
before going it is probably I 
and my favorite character after 

70
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,560
is OOM. 
I think OOM is it just 

71
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,520
interesting? 
I feel like eyes all around my 

72
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:09,800
favorite character. 
Oh my God. 

73
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,480
Yeah. 
I will say Jan bumped up because

74
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:12,440
of all the fan fiction. 
Yeah. 

75
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,600
Yeah. 
And her big gay energy. 

76
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:17,240
Yeah. 
Jan's pretty awesome. 

77
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,600
I think before it would be AI 
and Pang just 'cause I like 

78
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,880
their dynamic too. 
Like that makes sense. 

79
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,600
Yeah. 
You love chaotic friendships. 

80
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,880
I do. 
They're they're just so fun. 

81
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,080
I don't know how much it's May 
has gotten lower, May got worse.

82
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,600
But May was never my favorite 
character to begin with. 

83
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,080
Like I always was drawn more to 
Ayoon than May when it came to 

84
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,200
just like sussing out what her 
motivations always were cause 

85
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,920
May is consistent but I is like 
all over the place. 

86
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,600
So I find her more interesting 
as a character. 

87
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,880
I think before it May might have
been before UMM and like now 

88
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:58,280
Umm's before May. 
I don't know my ranking 

89
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,840
completely. 
Mostly because it's been so. 

90
00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:04,120
Long and I like I don't even 
know my thoughts before our 

91
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,840
breakdown. 
It was many years ago it was. 

92
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:12,760
But White Cat has answers of 
their own, so they think for 

93
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,640
them. 
It was before the breakdown. 

94
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:21,080
Number one, I #2 May. 
Number three, Officer Hottie. 

95
00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:23,920
Oh, my God, Officer Hottie. 
I'm so sorry I Plutoed you. 

96
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,000
I forgot about you getting 
Pluto. 

97
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,880
Or she's interesting, but she's 
never like my top Yeah 

98
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,120
characters 'cause they don't 
give us anything. 

99
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,720
But I feel like with our fan 
fiction, she's gotten higher 

100
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:36,080
afterwards. 
Sure. 

101
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:43,280
And then #4 is Jan? 
After the analysis, it's more #1

102
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,120
Jan. 
Fuck, yeah. 

103
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,480
Yeah, that's valid #2 I also 
fair. #3 umm. 

104
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,640
Hell yeah, Hell yeah #4 May, 
yeah, that's fair. 

105
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,840
May is also super interesting. 
Like when you really have to get

106
00:05:56,840 --> 00:06:00,040
into her. 
I mean, if I'm picking top spot,

107
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:06,000
though, I know, yeah. 
All right, so our. 

108
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:12,200
Next comment is from Kasi M 
right and they said it took me 

109
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,600
almost a week to get through 
this podcast alone. 

110
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,480
Valid like of episode 11? 
Because yeah, we were gonna, I 

111
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,200
think it was just Part 4. 
Hmm. 

112
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,080
OK. 
But maybe, I don't know. 

113
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,960
Only you can tell us, Cassie. 
Only Cassie. 

114
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,480
They continue. 
Thanks for dissecting episode 11

115
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,400
in epic detail. 
I still don't like episode 11 

116
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,320
and Oom's ultimatum. 
I don't like it either, and it's

117
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,720
OK. 
Nobody likes it. 

118
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,640
Nobody likes the ultimatum, 
even, um, doesn't actually like.

119
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,960
But I understand her now a 
little better and realized that 

120
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,080
she was not acting rationally. 
No, not at all. 

121
00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:00,320
She was not okay, not no okay 
that I would choose her sister. 

122
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,880
I never doubted, but I 
previously indeed likened UMS 

123
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,680
actions to Disney type villainy,
whereas you opened my eyes to 

124
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,920
her depression which I only 
peripherally acknowledged but 

125
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,120
not considered to be the main 
motivation behind the ultimatum.

126
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,360
That was the perception of all 
the characters as well Cassie, 

127
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,920
so you're not alone. 
Now I would just. 

128
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,000
I just would like for UMM to 
rescind this ultimatum once she 

129
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,280
feels better as she perfectly 
knows what I feels for May. 

130
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,160
As for Caitlin's word, 
serendipitous. 

131
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,480
Great job Cassie, it certainly 
fits the episode, especially 

132
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,720
this part if you use the meaning
relying on chance purely with no

133
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,000
positive connotation, as the 
latter part on episode 11 

134
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,000
happened in large part by chance
and not by design. 

135
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,240
How? 
This is in. 

136
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,560
Question to how eyes bike 
returned home? 

137
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,080
How eyes bike returned home? 
I don't know. 

138
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,480
No one knows. 
Do we see that once again in the

139
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,840
rest of the series? 
That's a good point. 

140
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,840
Or her bike just returns home. 
No. 

141
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:10,000
Do we see the bike at all? 
Well, no, hold on me. 

142
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:11,880
Yeah. 
Well, in the flashback, yeah. 

143
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:16,240
When they're going through umms,
the reason, umm, got therapy was

144
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:17,360
'cause Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 
yeah. 

145
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,000
So she did get the bike. 
Comes back after the lake, but 

146
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,400
like, in like sequential order 
when they're not doing 

147
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,640
flashbacks. 
No, we don't see it again, but 

148
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,400
in a flashback that happened 
after the late the river 

149
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,640
incident, yes. 
So yes, she did get she does get

150
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:38,039
the bike somehow mysteriously. 
And tan probably has a location 

151
00:08:38,039 --> 00:08:39,919
Finder app for her phone. 
Absolutely. 

152
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,360
Otherwise he wouldn't have never
made it in time. 

153
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,280
It's true. 
I mean like he's like I'm so 

154
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,600
sick of your shit. 
So he started tracking her a 

155
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:53,280
long time ago. 
He had to again, like he has to 

156
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,480
go to her aid so much. 
That's what I mean. 

157
00:08:55,560 --> 00:08:58,240
He just has like, well, he's 
like her life alert. 

158
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,200
All right. 
And that's that's the end of our

159
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,040
corrections of Connery. 
Thank you so much White Cat and 

160
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:11,160
Cassie for commenting and 
submitting. 

161
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,840
Keep we this is our last Pluto. 
Episode. 

162
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,720
So we won't be reading them out 
loud, but we'll respond to you. 

163
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,840
So please keep your comments 
coming in. 

164
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:25,080
It helps the engagement on the 
video as well and audio platform

165
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,520
and it just helps us reach a 
wider audience. 

166
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,800
So keep doing that. 
And if you could also just share

167
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,720
this with somebody who also 
loves Pluto or hasn't hasn't 

168
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,680
seen Pluto, but you want them to
watch Pluto, tell them to watch 

169
00:09:37,680 --> 00:09:41,120
Pluto and then watch this 
because or listen to this. 

170
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:42,880
How do they consume? 
Especially if there's a 

171
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,720
oomhater, see if we can change 
their mind. 

172
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,600
Yes. 
All right. 

173
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,120
And with that, yeah, thank you 
for coming along on the journey.

174
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:54,040
This is our final episode for 
Pluto, so let's get through this

175
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,240
together because this is the 
happy part, all right? 

176
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,440
And so episode. 
So the second-half of the 

177
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:05,360
episode essentially where we 
left off, we start up with some 

178
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:10,120
heterosexual propaganda because 
we have UMM in the auditorium of

179
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,240
Maze Rehab Center just like 
pondering life and stuff when 

180
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,520
Kasol saunters in all casual 
like and shit and sits down 

181
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,280
beside her. 
And this is like the first time 

182
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,800
these two have ever interacted 
solo. 

183
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,800
So like the scene kind of comes 
out of nowhere. 

184
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:31,520
However, off screen in the 
interim of the ultimatum to now,

185
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,600
they've allegedly been 
interacting through the rehab 

186
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,360
center because Casol works for 
May at the rehab center. 

187
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:41,720
UMM found out about the rehab 
center somehow through Casol, 

188
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,360
and so they've been mingling 
over the past year. 

189
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,320
So that's how we get this scene 
that if we hadn't known, that 

190
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,920
seems to come out of nowhere. 
Yes, it it. 

191
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,160
Seems to come out of nowhere so 
much that remember I don't 

192
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,640
notice clothing. 
I thought this was I for a 

193
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,200
second until like we got like 
into the seat. 

194
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:00,560
I'm like, oh, wait, wait a 
minute. 

195
00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:09,400
No, that's not I yes, my bad. 
All right, so this is OM, and 

196
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,680
Kasol sits down and tells UMM 
that she did a good deed when 

197
00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:15,560
she was talking to May. 
And Umm's like, what the hell, 

198
00:11:15,560 --> 00:11:17,960
You saw that shit? 
And he's like, casually like, 

199
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,400
yeah, yeah. 
Which means that Kasol was 

200
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,840
spying on UMM and May without 
either of their knowledge. 

201
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,640
Which means canonically, Kasol 
is a better spy than I. 

202
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,520
He's the best spy, apparently. 
I think UMM is the Best Buy, but

203
00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:37,560
he's better than I, which tells 
you how bad of a spy I was. 

204
00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:39,880
And that was her plot for 
several episodes. 

205
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,080
I I said Barb really low, 
though. 

206
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,800
I was really bad at this, which 
just. 

207
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,280
Which makes the show all the 
more ridiculous when you're 

208
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,040
like, I can't believe I was 
fooled by the fact that made 

209
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,000
quote didn't know any of those 
because I was so bad at it. 

210
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,280
Yeah, well, I mean, like, even 
in our reaction videos, we were 

211
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,320
like, there's no way she doesn't
know. 

212
00:12:04,680 --> 00:12:07,040
I forgot we even said that. 
But I'm just saying, like, 

213
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,920
you're led to believe that May 
doesn't know these things, and 

214
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,080
then in hindsight, you're like, 
wow, there's literally no way 

215
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,240
because I was so bad at this. 
Really, really bad. 

216
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,920
She's so bad. 
OK so then when Casola is 

217
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,120
sitting next to Oom after he 
tells her she did a good job 

218
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,480
with apologizing to me and 
setting things straight, pun 

219
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,440
intended here. 
Casol then mentions that he's 

220
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,200
disappointed that he came all 
the way to this book signing and

221
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:39,560
he did not get I's autograph. 
Like poor puppy dog Casol, he 

222
00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:43,720
came here to support his friend 
and like give him props for 

223
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,600
that. 
Like he already had the book 

224
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,800
which is how he gave it to May. 
And then he, like I's family 

225
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,440
members came here to physically 
support her. 

226
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,560
But like, again, May must have 
shown up, derailed the whole 

227
00:12:55,560 --> 00:12:57,600
book signing. 
And then Por Casol was probably 

228
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,240
in line for like an hour before 
the publicist is like, yeah, she

229
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:01,720
gone. 
And he's like, oh man, like I 

230
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,360
came here. 
I just like Por Casol. 

231
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,800
I think this proves that 
everyone in line behind May did 

232
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,560
not get AI Agree. 
I think everybody got fucked. 

233
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,320
I was at the book signing like 
she didn't. 

234
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,960
She was completely blinded by 
love and was just like, OK, 

235
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,040
let's go walk into the sunset 
together. 

236
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:20,240
I forgot about her own book 
signing. 

237
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,840
Yes, which I mean, it's her day 
and she could what she wants, 

238
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,920
but like Casol was like, man, 
she left so quickly, meaning 

239
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,920
everybody got screwed. 
Just they're just pointing that 

240
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,560
out. 
OK. 

241
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:35,000
And then they get into this 
really deep kind of conversation

242
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,080
because again, this is because 
puppy dog Casol and wise Casol 

243
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:42,600
where umm reflects and says, 
today I learned that letting go 

244
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,640
can mean loving someone 
basically, which means that she 

245
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,520
read I's novel and like actually
learned the point of the novel. 

246
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,160
So good for you. 
Umm. 

247
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,000
Umm has reading comprehension 
skills. 

248
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,560
She's the book smart one, the 
book smart one. 

249
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,800
And then she took that lesson 
and put it into action, which 

250
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,280
goes to show you that like you 
can learn like fiction can teach

251
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,440
you shit. 
Like I hope you've learned 

252
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,280
something on this journey of 
Pluto with us. 

253
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,160
Depression is real and don't 
underestimate it. 

254
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,600
There are many lessons. 
Just go re listen if you want 

255
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,400
any of them OK. 
And then so while UMM is 

256
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,160
explaining all of this cuz soul 
is looking at UMM with hard eyes

257
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,240
and I love that UMM clocks that 
shit and she's like oh hell no, 

258
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,440
not this again. 
I'm swearing off men, women love

259
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,520
all of it. 
And like good for you UMM cuz 

260
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,160
you just complete. 
She just completed a very long, 

261
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,280
very bitter, very difficult 
healing journey. 

262
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,560
You deserve to take time to love
you and just have peace. 

263
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,320
That way when you meet Officer 
Hottie later, you'll be ready 

264
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,280
for it. 
Yes yes, because this right here

265
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:58,400
is some propaganda. 
OK, so the so I think one reason

266
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,200
she has every right to be like 
absolutely not romance. 

267
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,680
It's not for me right now 
because her healing journey, but

268
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,320
the other reason is she's like, 
I'm really tired of sharing 

269
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,720
romantic partners with I, which 
is fair. 

270
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,680
She's like enough. 
I want somebody who has never 

271
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:13,200
met. 
I own. 

272
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,640
It's just for me. 
I can't have this weird. 

273
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,000
Oh, you're in love with my 
identical twin, my accent 

274
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,880
situation. 
That's what Boom is expressing. 

275
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:27,040
We're going to go back to her 
not introducing her significant 

276
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,120
other to her family for like 
years again. 

277
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,040
Yes. 
But also I love that she's 

278
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,000
lamenting. 
I love and hate the fact that 

279
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,320
she's lamenting on this. 
And then the writers are like 

280
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,040
yeah, about that room with the 
rest of this conversation. 

281
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,960
So. 
OK, so then GMMTV in console 

282
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,360
surprised us all when he reveals
that. 

283
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:52,040
OK, well you know, I definitely 
fell into the witch twin twin. 

284
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,600
Am I into misunderstanding 
trope? 

285
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,680
Because apparently he was into 
whom and tried to court her but 

286
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,040
then started courting I instead.
And that's how we ended up 

287
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:10,120
dating I So OK, to me, I think 
very this isn't purely GMMTV 

288
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:11,400
thing. 
This was absolutely not in the 

289
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,560
novel because it was actually a 
terrible person in the novel and

290
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,440
basically was a point of drama 
between May and I. 

291
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,720
But here they made him a human 
being, which I appreciate. 

292
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,760
But then also we're like, OK, 
how about we add an extra 

293
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,440
bookend into this conversation 
slash parallel. 

294
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,760
So basically what he's 
explaining here is supposed to 

295
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:36,440
mirror the I, umm and May 
triangle where like oops, I fell

296
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,160
in love with the wrong twin. 
That trope happened with the 

297
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:45,200
misunderstanding and it didn't 
work out here because and then 

298
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,320
so we go back in time to when 
Casol and I were dating and it 

299
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,160
didn't work out. 
So it's similar in a similar 

300
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,000
vein to when May was with UMM, 
not I it didn't work out because

301
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,800
they were not compatible. 
Same thing happened with so he's

302
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,880
like, yeah, this is not. 
And same with I, she's like, 

303
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,720
yeah, this is no. 
Which means, which is supposed 

304
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:07,319
to imply, if you follow this 
train of thought, OK, it's 

305
00:17:07,319 --> 00:17:11,560
supposed to imply that Casol and
Umm are an end game ship the way

306
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,640
that I and May were an end game 
ship. 

307
00:17:14,319 --> 00:17:18,400
And to that I say Officer Hottie
makes way more sense. 

308
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,720
She does. 
They seem more compatible, it 

309
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,200
feels like. 
But yeah, they're definitely 

310
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:32,560
trying to show that first of 
all, I and UMM are the same. 

311
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,520
Like they go on the same 
journeys. 

312
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:39,600
We just don't have time to flush
out like Umm's part of this. 

313
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,000
It's just they're it's not her 
story. 

314
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,440
Yeah. 
But yes, they were trying to set

315
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,960
up a love triangle parallel with
a twin misunderstanding very 

316
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,320
quickly at the end to be like, 
by the way, this was going on 

317
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,200
the whole time. 
So there's that, which I don't 

318
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,640
love. 
It again, feels rushed and kind 

319
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,560
of out of nowhere and it's just 
cool, whatever. 

320
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,480
And it's heterosexual propaganda
in my mind. 

321
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,560
But something I do like about 
this rewrite of Kasol AI and UMM

322
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,160
with this whole situation is 
that if you again, if you take 

323
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:11,680
them at as comparisons in at the
end of all of that, like what 

324
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,800
happened with Mae and UMM, 4 
alarm fire, right? 

325
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,640
Really bad stuff, but when you 
take the Kasol I and UMM 

326
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:23,640
situation, Kasol remained 
friends with I despite harboring

327
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,960
a crush for UMM, which says a 
lot about Kasol. 

328
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:32,480
OK in comparison to the way the 
women handle everything and so. 

329
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,920
But again, if you were to 
continue to follow that and say,

330
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:39,000
OK, canonically Kasol they can 
remain friends despite all the 

331
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,360
stuff, then that also would 
imply that at the really at the 

332
00:18:42,360 --> 00:18:47,440
end of all of this, that may Umm
and may and umm really could end

333
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,000
up being friendly eventually. 
But the difference really 

334
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,200
between these comparisons is 
that the the triangle with all 

335
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,560
the women, there's a lot more 
baggage there than there is with

336
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:02,960
the Kasol AI Umm situation. 
So it would make Boom and May's 

337
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,000
reconciliation like a true 
friendship, a lot more difficult

338
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,800
and would probably take a lot 
more time to achieve versus like

339
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,520
Casol being like, I'll, I don't 
want to date you, but let's be 

340
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,320
friends. 
Like that happened really fast. 

341
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:17,000
Like there was never any 
implication that Casol and I 

342
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,160
remained on the outs with each 
other for any extended period of

343
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,760
time. 
They just became friends pretty 

344
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,560
quickly. 
Versus like Mei and Umm, it's a 

345
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,880
year later. 
They're not friends, but they're

346
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:33,400
not enemies because they just 
did their final part of the 

347
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,760
healing journey at the beginning
of the last, you know, the last 

348
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,920
part of the episode. 
So that's kind of like the foil 

349
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,800
comparison I have with these 
things. 

350
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,960
But like, I don't believe the 
propaganda that Casol and our 

351
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,040
end game at all. 
Personally, I don't care what 

352
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,280
you say GMBT rewrite. 
I mean, they can say whatever 

353
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,560
they want, but like, eventually 
Umm's going to find her way to 

354
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,840
Officer Hottie. 
That's what I'm hoping because 

355
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,160
again, we're doing this whole 
thing like where he's like, oh, 

356
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,400
I saw you, you're the one I was 
interested in. 

357
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,960
And like, that just means that 
they're supposed to be together.

358
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,760
But like, that's not how that 
works. 

359
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,680
At least I assume so. 
Like, you don't just see 

360
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,800
someone, you're like, Oh my God,
I'm connected to them. 

361
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,040
That's who I'm going to be with 
them. 

362
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,680
I mean, but is that not the 
whole narrative between me and 

363
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,080
I? 
Oh, I know, I'm just. 

364
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,200
Choosing to ignore that part, 
but that's what I mean Like 

365
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,720
they're they're trying to set 
them up to be the same story 

366
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,160
again and like, but I don't 
choose to believe it. 

367
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,480
Honestly, it just feels too 
forced for these guys. 

368
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,400
But go OOM for like she's always
like no one picks me first and 

369
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,520
he's like, no, but I picked you 
first. 

370
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,200
But then I ended up in the 
whoops, I'm with the wrong twin 

371
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,960
trope where I was with I and I'm
like, you're not Oom. 

372
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,480
So like, at the very least I 
hope Oom is flattered by that. 

373
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:53,040
Yes, like this is just showing 
her because like again, foil 

374
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,680
with I like they always felt 
like they were the second 

375
00:20:55,680 --> 00:21:00,160
choice, correct. 
And now this is her seeing now 

376
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,640
knowing that she wasn't the 
second choice, right. 

377
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,640
All the time. 
Oom was somebody's first choice.

378
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,440
Yeah, exactly. 
So that's what I get from that 

379
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:18,920
scene, to be honest with you. 
So from this propaganda, it then

380
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,400
cuts to I and May walking away 
from the book signing, ditching 

381
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,480
all of her fans and walking hand
in hand. 

382
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,080
And so my question to you guys 
and my challenge for you is at 

383
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,640
this stage where they're walking
away hand in hand, how many 

384
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:34,000
people were waiting in line when
I ditched the book signing? 

385
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,200
All of them, but how many? 
I want a number. 

386
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,840
That's fair. 
Because again, we cannot 

387
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,320
canonically heard from Casol 
that he did not get his 

388
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,320
autograph because I left so 
quickly. 

389
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,360
So how many other people did 
not? 

390
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,560
And it's like it had to be 
enough that they didn't notice 

391
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,080
that Casol was there. 
Oh yeah. 

392
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,280
I don't think I recognized a 
goddamn thing. 

393
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:59,760
Once May showed up, she had 
blindness, but like, and Nemo 

394
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:01,680
didn't either. 
So she had love is blind. 

395
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,080
OK, so as they're walking away, 
I says to May, you still haven't

396
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,240
told me why you came to my book 
sign. 

397
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,280
So like, again, they had no 
communication. 

398
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,880
This was just Oh my God. 
I see you. 

399
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,760
Literally everything else flades
away. 

400
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,760
And then 30 minutes later when 
they're walking, I was like, oh,

401
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:24,440
yeah. 
Why are you like I come on, it's

402
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,840
been a year. 
She's a sick puppy. 

403
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:31,720
It's fine and then kudos to May 
because then she then tries to 

404
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,520
flirt with I and she's like, 
well, I loved your novel and I 

405
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:38,360
wanted my favorite writers 
autograph and you know what, 

406
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,920
good for you May the way she 
instantly starts flirting 

407
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,480
immediately with I once she's 
given the opportunity. 

408
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,400
I good for you. 
It's been a year. 

409
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:47,800
Appreciate that. 
Hydrate for me. 

410
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,600
So here's me trying to flirt 
with I but then I is out of 

411
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:56,920
practice when it comes to 
flirting. 

412
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,840
It does not take the bait and 
instead says was it umm? 

413
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:07,480
It's always umm oh God. 
So, and I think like, OK, first 

414
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,800
of all, umm, on the brain, 
valid, but then also like in the

415
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:16,440
interim of them not seeing each 
other and or not communicating 

416
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,960
directly with one another. 
I, I think I never doubted the 

417
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:25,360
fact that May loves reading and 
loves her novels because again, 

418
00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:27,600
that is a thing that has 
connected them since the 

419
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,520
beginning. 
And I has dedicated her novels 

420
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,600
to May. 
The very first one that she 

421
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,400
published was written with May. 
I don't think she doubts that 

422
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,920
for a reason. 
She's like suddenly coming to me

423
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,720
because of a book. 
Great. 

424
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,360
But I feel like there's more to 
that. 

425
00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:50,920
And and honestly, like again, 
the reason that they're 

426
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,800
separated is because of the 
ultimatum that umm set. 

427
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:59,000
So the only person who could 
rescind those rules is umm. 

428
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,520
So like good logical conclusion.
I honestly, and if you look at 

429
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,040
May after I brings us up, she 
does look a little guilty. 

430
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,400
She like kind of looks away and 
starts like fidgeting a bit. 

431
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:11,600
So she's like, damn, you caught 
me. 

432
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,080
I can't flirt my way out of this
like normal. 

433
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,920
And I do wonder like because May
doesn't tell I immediately, Oh, 

434
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:22,600
your sister intervened, blah, 
blah, blah. 

435
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:30,240
I So I do wonder if this is a 
little bit of a callback of a 

436
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,880
like a reflection to like the 
ultimatum itself. 

437
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,480
In that scene where May was 
like, she had that one part 

438
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,960
where she was really upset and 
like finally got the speaker 

439
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,120
base and she's like, well, 
nobody asked me what I wanted. 

440
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:44,680
And during that monologue, part 
of what she was upset about is 

441
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:50,080
that I kept doing things because
of, Oh, she's like, you came to 

442
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,800
me because of, Oh, you left me 
because of oh. 

443
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,840
So I wonder if this is a little 
bit of a call back to that 

444
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,600
because I was like, you're here 
to see me, not because you love 

445
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,120
me and love my novels. 
Are you here to see me because 

446
00:25:00,120 --> 00:25:03,120
of like, has the have the tables
completely turned here? 

447
00:25:06,120 --> 00:25:09,600
OK, so which is valid? 
And again, if we're doing all 

448
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,720
this parallel foiling, maybe 
that's what the writers 

449
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:13,440
intended. 
Who knows? 

450
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,040
OK, so after that I gets all emo
and continues like oh you 

451
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,320
wouldn't have had the courage to
come see me if UMM wasn't 

452
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:26,000
involved, You know, just like I 
didn't have the courage to ask 

453
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,240
you to wait for me because I 
didn't know when UMM was going 

454
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:33,440
to forgive me. 
So what you're saying I is that 

455
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:38,040
if we honored Umm's, we honored 
Umm's ultimatum not out of 

456
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,920
respect for UMM, but because we 
are all too cowardly to do what 

457
00:25:42,120 --> 00:25:47,840
we Yes, that's what that says. 
But like I of course that's 

458
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:52,600
because UMM, like it's because 
of UMM that May knew it was OK 

459
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,840
because like again, she knows 
that I would never do something 

460
00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:04,280
if UMM wasn't OK with it. 
So like, OK, that's true, but 

461
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,040
not true because OK. 
But then I think about how we 

462
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:12,400
get to this book signing event. 
I did reach out to May in her 

463
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:16,160
own way, which is the novel she 
published, especially the very 

464
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:23,240
explicit dedication to May. 
So like I always breaks around 

465
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,080
rules. 
And then we have the flashback 

466
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:29,840
evidence of I going to see May. 
So like, she does not actually 

467
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:34,880
honor the ultimatum. 
Like she doesn't particularly. 

468
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,680
The flat doesn't count as seeing
her if she doesn't see her back,

469
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:40,680
though I think it does 
personally, Yeah. 

470
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:42,720
But. 
I don't know. 

471
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:51,880
So I'm lying as hoe. 
Would you anyway, OK. 

472
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:56,400
And then I basically confirms 
what I've been saying is that 

473
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,280
she's like, well, you know what?
I'm glad you're here because I 

474
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,320
really hoped that one of my 
books would bring you back to 

475
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:07,280
me, which is super romantic 
because like I've mentioned many

476
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:08,840
times, like. 
The the books are. 

477
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,680
What they bonded over first, 
like truly bonded over OK, 

478
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,000
because it was one of the first 
I and May memories that was 

479
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,160
independent of whom? 
Because up till up till that 

480
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,960
point when they started talking 
about stories, everything was 

481
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,920
very interwoven with I 
pretending to be Oom and trying 

482
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:26,760
to fill in the blanks, be like 
what would Oom say in this 

483
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,680
situation? 
But when it came down to their 

484
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,520
love of stories, that was very 
mutual and very much between 

485
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,880
them. 
Because then if you go back when

486
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,880
UMM and May were dating and 
talked about stories, UMM was 

487
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,640
like, I like them because of my 
sister. 

488
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,760
So there was no bonding over 
stories between the two of them.

489
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,560
That was a purely I and May 
thing. 

490
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,280
So I do love the full circle of 
being like the stories or what 

491
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,480
brought you back to me because 
that's kind of what they fell in

492
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:55,240
love over really. 
Plus May was the inspiration for

493
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,600
and instigation for I to 
complete the value of love. 

494
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:03,240
And so implication is that same 
was true of this novel also. 

495
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,600
And I think that May gets what I
is trying to say here and is 

496
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,880
really happy that I is still 
writing novels for her and only 

497
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,800
her. 
And I love that May says I'm 

498
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:21,760
back now, Miss Famous Writer. 
And the way she smiles so hugely

499
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,760
here is, is adorable. 
And I think there's two reasons 

500
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,240
for this. 
One, she's really, really happy 

501
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,000
because she's 3 inches away from
I's face, so how could you not 

502
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,600
be happy? 
But two, I think she's very 

503
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:37,520
genuinely proud of I. 
And since the beginning, May has

504
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:42,040
been consistently very 
supportive of I's pursuit of 

505
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:46,480
becoming a novelist. 
And here's like the fruits of of

506
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,080
like eyes labor again. 
She has a second book. 

507
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,400
So I think that May is just 
genuinely proud of eyes 

508
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,080
accomplishment here, too. 
So she is a famous writer. 

509
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:55,480
She's not just a published 
writer. 

510
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,920
Like look at all the fans that 
we ghosted. 

511
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,760
I is I is very sick. 
Is a successful writer, which 

512
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,800
like goes kind of beyond like 
the original goal I had of 

513
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,080
writing. 
She's just I love it and I want 

514
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,080
to do it. 
And May because of that was 

515
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,280
like, yeah, do it. 
But here's I being like super 

516
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,320
successful while doing it. 
So I think she's genuinely proud

517
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,880
of I yeah, May saw her potential
very early on. 

518
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,440
And it's, it's not just because 
like she loved her either, 

519
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:23,720
because like she was. 
Reading the whole. 

520
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,760
Thing like she could have been 
like, oh, this sucks, but she's 

521
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:32,200
she knew that this would happen.
Oh, in the novel May was like, I

522
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,000
this is a terrible book. 
You need to like, you need to 

523
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,640
rewrite this bitch. 
Like she was giving her honest 

524
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,080
feedback while I was going 
through the writing process. 

525
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,480
So like she was doing that, but 
it ultimately made IA better 

526
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:44,920
writer. 
Remember, we had those lessons 

527
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,440
where she's like, you need to 
get indentured to your emotions.

528
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,200
I for some reason, you need to 
get naked and be in a bathtub. 

529
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,120
Like, you know what I mean? 
We did all those things. 

530
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:57,240
So May was again, the 
instigation of the the writing, 

531
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,880
the way she kept like pushing I 
to be better. 

532
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,320
But here's the second novel, 
honestly, like May wasn't there 

533
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,480
for that journey. 
So like, here's I who continued 

534
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,360
to improve and get better and 
better. 

535
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,600
Now she is independently 
successful with. 

536
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,640
And May, while she was the 
inspiration of this novel, she 

537
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:17,480
wasn't the influence, like the 
daily influence of like here's 

538
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,040
feedback, here's like, you know,
things like that. 

539
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,120
So she's proud of I for kind of 
doing this one more so on her 

540
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,880
own than like the first novel 
where they kind of wrote it 

541
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:33,880
together, honestly. 
So then after all of that, I 

542
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,680
pulls May and close and like 
this is the first time they've 

543
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,680
been in each other's personal 
space in over a year. 

544
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:44,280
And I says welcome back in this 
very gentle and lovingly kind of

545
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,720
way. 
And then and then now we are in 

546
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:52,560
each other's spaces. 
So then I very sweetly starts 

547
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,680
caressing May's face, almost 
like she needs to convince 

548
00:30:55,680 --> 00:31:00,640
herself that this isn't a dream.
Like I'm surprised the OSD 

549
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,720
Somewhere Only We Know didn't 
start playing because that's 

550
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:07,000
their dream sequence song. 
And if you notice that I's 

551
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,120
reaction here when they're in 
the hug is very tender and 

552
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:15,840
romantic while Maze is super 
thirsty, which is my favorite 

553
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,960
reaction. 
I'm May is my favorite in this 

554
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:24,160
scene because yeah, girl, if you
watch what May is doing, May is 

555
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:30,000
like checking out I's arm and 
she grabs and squeezes it almost

556
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:34,080
like she's like feeling eyes 
muscles through the sweater and 

557
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,400
having inner thoughts. 
That's like, yes, she can still 

558
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:37,840
lift me off the ground if she 
wanted to. 

559
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,400
Like May gets thirsty in the 
sauce, which it's been a year, 

560
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,240
so I love that. 
If you did not notice that, go 

561
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,880
back and watch May. 
It's real thirsty actually, and 

562
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:54,560
she keeps doing it. 
OK so they're not on the same 

563
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,680
page. 
Like I seem romantic May as 

564
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,760
being thirsty. 
I does not notice this and so 

565
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,880
keeping the romance going I 
softly begs May basically never 

566
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,440
to disappear again and like to 
be with her forever essentially.

567
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,760
And then I explains that 
basically loving May and losing 

568
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,960
her was worse than never having 
loved her at all. 

569
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,200
Hold on because like she says, 
don't disappear again. 

570
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,160
Isn't it really I that 
disappeared on May because she's

571
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:25,960
the one who left her? 
I mean, yeah, but basically 

572
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,400
she's like, OK, now that we 
don't have the barrier of umm 

573
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,360
anymore, please never leave me 
again. 

574
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:33,680
I think that's what she's 
saying. 

575
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,880
But yes, it was I, I has 
amnesia. 

576
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,240
I this was you and I walked away
from me. 

577
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,200
You're not innocent in 
everything. 

578
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:44,240
Like you do some stuff, OK. 
And also, like ultimatum aside, 

579
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,440
you've been the one consistently
that runs away from me. 

580
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,720
So if anyone should be begging 
anybody, it should be me to be 

581
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,920
like, you disappear. 
You're on her all the time. 

582
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:57,240
You are never allowed to go to 
your car unsupervised. 

583
00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:58,920
Like also she doesn't have a 
car. 

584
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,480
You're never allowed to like, 
leave me for more than five 

585
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,200
hours at a time because then you
just disappear. 

586
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:11,000
I'm putting AGPS tracker on you 
so I know where the fuck you are

587
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,880
at all times because you cannot 
be trusted. 

588
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,400
I that's how they got the soul 
sync thing. 

589
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:22,640
Yeah, exactly. 
OK, so anyway, back to the 

590
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,960
statement where I was basically 
saying to, you know, to have 

591
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,080
loved you and lost you is worse 
than never have loved you at 

592
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,120
all. 
Like please never leave me. 

593
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,600
This was really hard living 
without you or trying to. 

594
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:37,520
And after all they've been 
through and like all they've 

595
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,960
been through, if this 
declaration doesn't prove eyes 

596
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,200
love and devotion to me, I don't
know what will. 

597
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,520
Because this was like, let's 
never be a part for it even a 

598
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,800
second ever again, which is 
really what May was after since 

599
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,880
episode 1. 
So this is a scene where May 

600
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,800
May's finally restarting her 
winning streak when it comes to 

601
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:04,760
I Congratulations May. 
It's you've been through so much

602
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,600
to get here. 
I hope it was worth it. 

603
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:11,800
I think she'd say yes. 
And then after hearing that her 

604
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,440
Prince Charming struggled to 
live without her, Mane's mind 

605
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,159
drums straight in the gutter. 
Because look what her hands are 

606
00:34:16,159 --> 00:34:18,679
doing. 
She's checking out eyes muscles 

607
00:34:18,679 --> 00:34:20,719
again. 
I see you May. 

608
00:34:22,679 --> 00:34:26,199
And then May responds. 
You know, if this was a novel, 

609
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:30,239
this would be the part where the
Prince and the Princess kiss and

610
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,040
Mae's mind does not say, you 
know, and other stuff too. 

611
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:38,280
I because those arms, she's so 
thirsty in the scene. 

612
00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:40,920
Because she's always focused on 
what she wants. 

613
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,440
I don't blame. 
I don't blame you. 

614
00:34:45,679 --> 00:34:47,679
Good for you, Mae. 
It's been so long. 

615
00:34:47,679 --> 00:34:52,880
Put that thirst on display. 
It's been a year and no one has 

616
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:58,280
to pretend they're blind, like, 
you know, OK. 

617
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,080
And then I liked it. 
OK. 

618
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:05,240
I also like that May pivots into
book nerd flirting, which is 

619
00:35:05,240 --> 00:35:08,800
really cute because that's I's 
language, which is adorable. 

620
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,040
And I is really cute here 
because she's like, well, what a

621
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,200
coincidence, There's a Prince 
and Princess right here. 

622
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,240
And he's like, OK, well, let's 
do it. 

623
00:35:18,240 --> 00:35:22,080
Kiss me, damn it, I dare you. 
So then I leans in and sweetly 

624
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:26,320
kisses May in a very chaste way 
like the gentlewoman she is. 

625
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:32,280
And then I love the realism of 
what happens next because it's 

626
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:38,080
it's been a long ass year OK? 
And I is basically like OK this 

627
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,640
little Peck is not enough to 
properly hydrate for lesbian 

628
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,560
Jesus. 
So then I totally catches me off

629
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,960
guard where she leans in again 
for a far less chaste kiss that 

630
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:53,160
involves eye cupping May's face.
And the cutest part about this 

631
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:54,840
too. 
First of all, I gets thirsty 

632
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:56,480
when it was May who's been 
thirsty the whole time. 

633
00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:01,000
Good for you I, but I love that.
May then steals the kiss from I 

634
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,080
at the end like and she's 
smiling like a little kid on her

635
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,400
birthday. 
It's like the cutest thing ever.

636
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:11,760
Anything to say about this, 
Caitlin? 

637
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:18,720
Well, when we shift a slightly 
more, we see the bridge and I 

638
00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:22,000
just find that it's like very 
poetic how like this takes place

639
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,840
in the same place where I was 
when she was getting rejected to

640
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,320
all those jobs and like who 
resumes were flying like it's 

641
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:33,120
just her life was crumbling. 
She was at her lowest point at 

642
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,640
this place and now she's at her 
highest. 

643
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,840
That's a good point. 
So it just like rewrote the 

644
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,920
story of this place and like 
what it means to her. 

645
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,400
That's a really good point. 
And then keep going here. 

646
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:51,560
I do like how we transition from
the bridge in the daytime to the

647
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:55,280
bridge in the night time to 
actually prepare us for the next

648
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:59,200
scene of the at night rather 
than, you know, just jumping and

649
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,280
be like, OK, time's passed. 
Valid, valid. 

650
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,240
OK, so then, yeah. 
So then we basically recede into

651
00:37:07,240 --> 00:37:09,840
the distance as I and May 
continue to make out beneath the

652
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,120
bridge. 
To your point, and honestly, I'm

653
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,560
really surprised the amount of 
PDA on display from these two. 

654
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:19,320
Like they're out in public. 
Oh, they don't see public. 

655
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,840
They they see they're, they're 
in a box. 

656
00:37:22,720 --> 00:37:24,200
I guess. 
I guess that's it. 

657
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,920
Maybe that speaks to just how 
they don't see anything else 

658
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:30,080
because usually they're very 
like, or at least culturally, 

659
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,840
it's very much like PDA is rare 
and chased if anything. 

660
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:39,040
And like, I'm just surprised the
amount of like like public 

661
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,120
display of affection they have 
going on in this scene because 

662
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:43,760
it's not like people can't see 
them. 

663
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,520
It's they're next to a bridge 
where there's cars and people 

664
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,080
and like they're they're 
visible. 

665
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,880
So I'm just surprised that they 
did so much PDA here. 

666
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,720
But I think they're just so 
blinded. 

667
00:37:55,360 --> 00:38:00,040
That's fair, just again, 
surprising in a tie drama to see

668
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:07,000
that just in general. 
OK so then later that night, to 

669
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,800
your point, We then head back to
Meemaw's where Oom is pondering 

670
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:15,760
life all alone on the couch 
until Meemaw joins her. 

671
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,320
And when the scene begins, to me
it's very reminiscent of the 

672
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:25,120
flashback scene in episode 8 
where UMM was crying over Mei on

673
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,480
the couch at night and Meemaw 
comes in to comfort her. 

674
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,320
OK so we have that scene where 
basically UMM sitting on the 

675
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:37,320
couch and it's kind of like the 
camera is far as further away. 

676
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,400
So you get like some of the 
hallway and then UMM sitting on 

677
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,440
the couch versus the close up of
her on the couch. 

678
00:38:42,720 --> 00:38:45,360
And in episode 8, it starts off 
the same way. 

679
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,080
And if you remember when we 
talked about that scene, if you 

680
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,080
don't remember, go back and re 
listen to that episode. 

681
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:55,920
But in that sequence of events 
where UMM is being comforted by 

682
00:38:55,920 --> 00:39:00,240
Neemaw, I talked about how like 
the camera basically like slowly

683
00:39:00,240 --> 00:39:03,240
zooms out as that conversation 
is going on. 

684
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,360
So it makes UMM look smaller and
smaller and smaller on the couch

685
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,320
as that's happening. 
Because umm, that's how she was 

686
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:12,800
feeling in that scene. 
Very small, unloved kind of 

687
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,560
thing. 
But here we have the opposite 

688
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:18,360
thing happening, where the 
camera is actually zooming in 

689
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:22,440
slowly on UMM and she looks 
bigger because UMM feels better 

690
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,080
in this scene. 
And so when Mima comes in, she 

691
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,160
acknowledges how difficult it 
was for UMM to let go of the 

692
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,680
past so that I and May can be 
together. 

693
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,680
And she's incredibly proud of 
UMM for doing it. 

694
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:41,040
And Mima smiles and beams and 
calls great and pulls her into a

695
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,000
hug. 
And I'm really happy that 

696
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,600
somebody acknowledges Umm's 
accomplishments with her mental 

697
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,360
health and just how far she's 
come with all of that. 

698
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,720
Because Mima's right. 
Like it wasn't easy for UMM. 

699
00:39:52,720 --> 00:39:55,760
That was the whole reason we 
ended up on this journey. 

700
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,880
That's the whole reason episode 
11 happened, because it was so 

701
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:03,240
hard for UMM. 
But UMM did overcome it and let 

702
00:40:03,240 --> 00:40:07,960
it go. 
Yeah, and we'll see just how far

703
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,800
she's come with what she says 
after this. 

704
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:15,120
OK, so then UMM kind of explains
what she learns to your point. 

705
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,600
So in the cycle of everyone 
hurting each other and to try 

706
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,640
and get what they want, UMM 
learned that love is not always 

707
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,080
about prioritizing your own 
happiness. 

708
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,960
Love can also be about 
facilitating happiness for the 

709
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:32,480
people you love. 
And I do wonder what reflections

710
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:36,680
UMM had when she was in therapy 
to get to this place. 

711
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:40,720
Like I'd like to think that she 
was in a better emotional space 

712
00:40:40,720 --> 00:40:46,040
and able to think rationally. 
And she when she revisited the 

713
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:50,520
May stuff and realized that 
denying I access to May was 

714
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:55,520
equal yet opposite to UMM being 
with May when May didn't want 

715
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,440
her. 
And I wonder if she really 

716
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,600
thought to herself, is the price
of monopolizing I's love worth 

717
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,120
all this pain? 
Which is the same rationale I 

718
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:11,280
has for walking away from May. 
And it's just interesting to me 

719
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,440
how much, because you brought 
this up earlier, it's just 

720
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:17,280
interesting to me how much I and
Umm's journeys really do 

721
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:21,040
parallel one another, even 
though they're, they rarely 

722
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:25,280
intersected as adults, but they 
were just on such similar paths.

723
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,280
Granted, they're going through 
they're in different scenarios, 

724
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,440
but what they were dealing with 
is pretty similar. 

725
00:41:32,240 --> 00:41:34,920
Yeah. 
And it also shows how like, 

726
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,400
yeah, they're twins and like, 
there's their siblings. 

727
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,360
But like, it just shows that you
aren't alone. 

728
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,520
Like your experiences aren't 
unique. 

729
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,240
Like there's someone else going 
through similar situations as 

730
00:41:46,240 --> 00:41:47,480
you. 
It's not going to be exactly the

731
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,520
same, but they are learning the 
same lessons. 

732
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,200
They're struggling with the same
feelings. 

733
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:59,440
And like, you're just not alone 
in your, I don't know, it makes,

734
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:01,880
at least to me, it makes you 
feel less alone. 

735
00:42:02,240 --> 00:42:04,160
Yeah. 
Cuz as human beings, we have 

736
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,960
more in common that we do have 
differences. 

737
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,840
And people forget about that, 
about that, which is how you get

738
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:13,560
racism and homophobia. 
Yeah, I'm serious. 

739
00:42:13,720 --> 00:42:17,920
No, I know. 
But like to your point, I don't 

740
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:22,440
know what exactly Oom discovered
in therapy, but you can tell 

741
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:26,160
that UMM has done a lot of work.
Yes, because she is thinking 

742
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:30,760
more positively rather than like
negatively like doom everything 

743
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,360
and she's seeing the bigger 
picture of everything and 

744
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:36,880
thinking about how others feel 
rather than how she feels. 

745
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:40,160
She's thinking rationally also 
like think about the way she's 

746
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,840
describing stuff. 
She's like, I now see that, 

747
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:48,600
like, you know, what I was doing
was harming people and not worth

748
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,360
it for that because like I was 
thinking I was so lost in my 

749
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,360
feelings. 
I wasn't considering other 

750
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,920
people's, as you know. 
And then when I stepped, stepped

751
00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:00,280
back and thought about it, like 
thought about it, not felt about

752
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,040
it, thought about it, I realized
it wasn't worth it. 

753
00:43:03,720 --> 00:43:06,320
Like my happiness could come 
from other people's happiness, 

754
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,080
not just like my. 
But again, that's the, that's 

755
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:13,520
the logic of a depressed person 
who has not felt happiness in a 

756
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:17,000
like genuine happiness in a 
really long time and is like, I 

757
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,120
just need to feel happy. 
So I don't feel like this 

758
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,480
anymore. 
Like so kudos to how they wrote 

759
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,680
UMM because they really did 
capture like what a depressed 

760
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:30,800
person goes through and how it 
just really warps her reality so

761
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:35,760
much that like to outside people
like it her, what she's saying 

762
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,880
and, and and what she's trying 
to communicate is unrecognizable

763
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,320
because they cannot empathize 
with her. 

764
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,800
So I love that we have here to 
wrap this all up. 

765
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,160
Yes, UMM learned a ton of 
things, but like what's going on

766
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:48,880
with Meemaw? 
So if you watch Meemaw during 

767
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,520
the scene, she's beaming very 
proudly at UMM. 

768
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:57,320
Like clearly she's proud of all 
the healing that UMM has, all of

769
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,040
the healing that UMM has, and 
like the journey she went on. 

770
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,080
And then when UMM is finished 
explaining what she learned, 

771
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:07,720
Mima says whenever you feel 
unhappy, just let me know when I

772
00:44:07,720 --> 00:44:12,680
will come to you right away, OK?
So that's Mima acknowledging 

773
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:16,600
that sometimes UMM needs help 
when she's falling back into a 

774
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,680
depression, OK? 
And I love that we have Mima 

775
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:25,480
speaking like this about Umm's 
mental health and she's not 

776
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,720
speaking punitively about the 
depression, which we've seen in 

777
00:44:29,720 --> 00:44:35,240
some Thai dramas, like go back 
to The Secret of Us, when Worm's

778
00:44:35,240 --> 00:44:40,440
character Earn is getting 
depressed and suicidal, and then

779
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,480
she gets shamed because of it. 
And this is a cultural thing. 

780
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,760
It's a, it's a form of weakness.
And like, how dare you do this? 

781
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,360
Because if you harm yourself, 
that harms me. 

782
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,480
And like, that was the the 
cultural perception of that 

783
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,040
scene. 
But if you have a different 

784
00:44:56,040 --> 00:45:00,760
perception of like mental health
as this, like, you know, as a, 

785
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,280
you know what it is something 
that you can treat something 

786
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,240
where that person needs help. 
Like if you have a different 

787
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:09,360
view, which again, we can sit 
here now in 2026 and be like, 

788
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,080
wow, I can't believe people 
respond that way. 

789
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,880
But like, OK, being empathetic 
towards people with mental 

790
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:19,240
health issues is a new thing. 
We're the outliers historically 

791
00:45:19,240 --> 00:45:21,920
by having that view. 
So like, it's easy for us to 

792
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,280
judge other people's reactions 
like that. 

793
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:29,040
So I say that to say that like 
Mima, who is of an older 

794
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,200
generation than UMM, again, we 
didn't fully get her story, but 

795
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,440
it would have been really 
interesting to see how Mima 

796
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,440
really came to terms with the 
fact that her precious 

797
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,600
granddaughter is having this 
really severe mental health 

798
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,960
crisis. 
Because like Mima's generation 

799
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:45,600
would be expected to react the 
way the secret of us reaction 

800
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,520
was to blame UMM for it and not 
support her. 

801
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:51,720
So I love that Mima off screen 
must have came a very long way 

802
00:45:51,720 --> 00:45:54,560
to just be here and be like, 
umm, the next time you need 

803
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:58,160
help, come to me and I will 
support and help you when you're

804
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:01,760
feeling sad, when you feel like 
you're going to get depressed 

805
00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:04,600
again to come to me first and 
let's, I'll support you through 

806
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,440
it. 
So basically she's saying I'm 

807
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,520
I'll be your safe space when 
you're in like this situation 

808
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:12,520
again. 
And I love that she gets there. 

809
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,240
I do too. 
Yeah, that's a really good 

810
00:46:15,240 --> 00:46:21,800
point. 
I'm just very happy for UMM and 

811
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:26,000
the way Eyes Eyes Family also 
had to come on this journey. 

812
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,640
Not had to, but they chose to 
come on this journey with UMM 

813
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:33,440
and not just like financially 
support her through the rehab 

814
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:35,280
center, which I'm sure they were
doing because UMM wasn't 

815
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:40,400
working, but they were 
emotionally there for physically

816
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,720
there for UMM. 
And I think that like again, the

817
00:46:42,720 --> 00:46:47,600
ultimatum was crazy, but I think
that this family needed that 

818
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:49,760
time. 
They needed that break away from

819
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:53,680
the May drama to like they 
needed to all heal because 

820
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,680
that's how you get this scene. 
Yeah. 

821
00:46:55,680 --> 00:47:00,400
And by supporting UMM through 
this journey, like I feel like 

822
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,520
they've had to have at least one
family session. 

823
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:06,160
So like they're all working on 
themselves as well to be there 

824
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,800
for UMM. 
So really it was just. 

825
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,880
A beneficial. 
I forget what the word is 

826
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:17,120
situation for all of them 
because they're all able to 

827
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:18,080
grow. 
Yeah. 

828
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:21,480
I, I, I, I agree because again, 
I, I anticipate that like, 

829
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:25,240
Meemaw had to learn all about 
this mental health stuff from 

830
00:47:25,240 --> 00:47:29,840
the rehab center also. 
And like so did I, it would have

831
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,920
been really cool and like 
totally not necessary for the 

832
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,200
show because this revolves 
around I but like to see like 

833
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:41,520
family education classes at the 
facility, just teaching family 

834
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,320
members about like what people 
like what their family members 

835
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,240
are going through. 
Like these are the terms. 

836
00:47:46,240 --> 00:47:50,120
This is how they're feeling. 
This is how you can help them 

837
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,440
through it, because that's also 
a big thing. 

838
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,800
Like they had to learn how what 
to say to because without 

839
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:59,440
triggering correct exactly. 
And that's something huge that 

840
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:03,040
but people like, people don't 
know what to say and a lot of 

841
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,440
times they end up making things 
a lot worse. 

842
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:07,480
So I think that would've been 
cool. 

843
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:09,840
But that was just that's pure 
selfish. 

844
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,920
Like I just, I think that's 
that's needed in general. 

845
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,600
Yeah. 
And a Thai girl of drama that 

846
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:19,760
did do that is Mate, which was 
written by Chaplainoy too. 

847
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:24,880
So yeah, they had good one of 
the character. 

848
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:26,680
No, it's no spoilers. 
One of the characters goes 

849
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:28,800
through like a really bad 
trauma. 

850
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,840
And like, the main plot does 
revolve, well, not the main 

851
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:36,280
plot, one of the plots. 
And her arc revolves around this

852
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,800
going to therapy. 
And so they do have sessions 

853
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,280
with the therapist that are 
pretty good. 

854
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,640
That's awesome. 
But that was a main plot. 

855
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:48,440
Whereas GMMTV did all of this 
independent of the novel. 

856
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:50,040
Like, UMM doesn't go to therapy 
in the novel. 

857
00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:57,840
OK, All right. 
So after we, after they talk 

858
00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:02,480
about all that, I and umm, umm 
and Mima then say I love you to 

859
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:06,240
each other. 
OK, My favorite part, because if

860
00:49:06,240 --> 00:49:08,480
there's one lesson you should 
take away from Pluto, it's to 

861
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,360
tell people you love them now 
and often. 

862
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:13,240
And don't wait until one of them
is in a coma. 

863
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:17,160
Tell them now. 
Again, I've said this in another

864
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:20,280
episode, but if you do anything 
today, go tell someone that you 

865
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,760
love them. 
Look yourself in the mirror and 

866
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,240
also say I love you. 
Yes, I mean it. 

867
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,720
Yes, we'll know that's we'll 
know you Don't do it. 

868
00:49:28,720 --> 00:49:31,400
Don't ask us out. 
Do it, but do it for yourself, 

869
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:34,200
not for us, because you're 
supposed to be doing it for 

870
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:35,880
yourself. 
Yes, but let us motivate you. 

871
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,040
OK, so then after that, really 
poignant, an amazing scene, we 

872
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:41,840
then transition to a noodle 
scene. 

873
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,880
I'm convinced it was unscripted.
Me too. 

874
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:47,480
I'm convinced there was no 
script for this. 

875
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:52,320
OK, so then here we go. 
The premise here is that I spent

876
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:55,360
the night with May because 
lesbianism, and then May is 

877
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:59,160
making food because parallels. 
And instead of their special 

878
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:03,800
omelet, which would have made 
more sense narratively, GMMTV 

879
00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:05,360
needed these bitches to sell 
noodles. 

880
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,800
So here we are. 
The omelet really would have 

881
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,560
made more sense. 
I know you think you would think

882
00:50:10,720 --> 00:50:13,800
that when they've been separated
for a year, they would make 

883
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:17,440
their special meal together, 
especially in the morning, but 

884
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,120
they don't. 
They make noodles because they 

885
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:22,920
need to sell shit. 
OK, all right. 

886
00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:27,160
And then based on how ridiculous
I in particular is in the scene,

887
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,200
I'm not convinced this was 
scripted. 

888
00:50:29,240 --> 00:50:32,280
And I, I don't think Nam Ton is 
actually in character. 

889
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,480
I think she's just being her 
high energy, ridiculous self 

890
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:39,040
while film is cooking. 
And I love it because in this 

891
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,520
scene, Nam Ton is a ridiculous 
human. 

892
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,880
And it makes the scene really 
funny because at one point she 

893
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:49,480
starts chanting Chef May and 
starts weaving her hands almost 

894
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:53,160
like they're on a cooking show. 
Yeah, I love that part. 

895
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,320
I love it. 
But it's not just her, though. 

896
00:50:56,320 --> 00:51:00,120
Film is just as playful because,
like, at the end when I when I 

897
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,160
is doing that, like hyping her 
up to the crowd, that doesn't 

898
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:05,480
exist. 
Like film does this like power 

899
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,560
pose as if she's like, yeah, 
right, Damn right. 

900
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:09,560
I'm a master chef for making 
these noodles. 

901
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,960
But like, kudos to may in this 
scene because she didn't just 

902
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:16,240
make noodles. 
She just like she like adds ham,

903
00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,680
she adds scallions. 
It's like it is professional as 

904
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:24,360
fuck looking. 
She makes I wait for it and I, I

905
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,880
it's just really cute to see how
I just watches may put stuff in 

906
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:30,520
the noodles and like instead of 
complain that it's taking too 

907
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,920
long, Like no, she wants to be 
in this moment being like, oh, 

908
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,680
this, she's taking care of me. 
She's showing me that she loves 

909
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:37,760
me. 
Exactly. 

910
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,720
Doing all this effort. 
Yes. 

911
00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:46,520
And then my other favorite part 
is at the end where Nam Tom 

912
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:49,160
initiates the Lady of the Tramp 
moment where they share the 

913
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:50,440
doodles. 
Yeah. 

914
00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:53,320
I was like, was that scripted? 
None of this was scripted. 

915
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:55,720
I'm just it. 
They couldn't have been. 

916
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:58,680
But OK. 
So it's basically them being 

917
00:51:58,720 --> 00:52:01,760
ridiculous, which is funny and 
cute after all we've been 

918
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:03,520
through. 
OK. 

919
00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:06,200
But what I do like about this 
scene that is relevant to the 

920
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,360
story is that I and May are 
actually cooking together. 

921
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,800
If you actually watch them, 
like, yeah, it's mostly May, but

922
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:16,120
I does help May, like, get the 
noodles out of the pot. 

923
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:19,320
She also adds the seasoning. 
And this is the first time 

924
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,360
they've done this together. 
OK. 

925
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,400
Like cooking at the same time 
because up till now, it's been 

926
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,440
one person cooking for the other
person. 

927
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,680
So I think that's important here
is that like, they're they're 

928
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:31,800
A-Team now. 
They're not just like 

929
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,400
individuals trying to court each
other like they're on the same 

930
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:36,760
page. 
Finally. 

931
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:43,360
Yeah, that's the only actual 
analysis I have of the scene 

932
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,440
that I think was unscripted and 
ridiculous. 

933
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,560
Yeah. 
This this is mostly just for 

934
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:51,600
product placement. 
I do think it's a better way to 

935
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:54,080
work in the product placement 
than those random scenes at the 

936
00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:57,840
end, 100 million percent, which 
is why I think they're random at

937
00:52:57,840 --> 00:52:59,200
the end. 
I don't know that where they 

938
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,640
actually fit in when they aired 
the episode. 

939
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,920
OK. 
After the improvised ad, we then

940
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,600
transitioned to domestic, I and 
May living their lives. 

941
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:10,440
And I walks into May's study 
with a mountain of her own 

942
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:14,680
novels and is like May, why did 
you buy 20 copies of my books? 

943
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,440
We're married. 
I don't get this. 

944
00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:19,400
May is single. 
Handedly trying to get I on the 

945
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:21,800
bestseller list. 
She is and May is like, listen, 

946
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:23,840
I see my wife's book on a shelf 
in the shop. 

947
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:25,280
I buy the book. 
It's simple math. 

948
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:26,840
I, I don't, Why are you 
confused? 

949
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:31,480
And then she tries to like, 
again, turn this into a flirting

950
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:34,160
session because I look kind of 
upset. 

951
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,480
And she's like, well, don't you 
like me buying your books? 

952
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:42,440
Am I not being sweet? 
And she hangs her head like, May

953
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,840
and like, pinches her brows and 
she's like, aw, like, are you 

954
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,680
really going to get mad at me at
first supporting your writing 

955
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,320
career? 
I'm just trying to be nice. 

956
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:56,360
And then maybe this was 
unscripted too, because then I 

957
00:53:56,600 --> 00:54:00,280
pinches the corner of Mae's 
mouth into a smile, kind of, and

958
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:02,880
then lifts her head up and says 
you're being sweet but it's a 

959
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:07,120
waste of money. 
And then Mae does the cheek 

960
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:10,240
pinching thing right back when 
she tells I for you the word 

961
00:54:10,240 --> 00:54:14,280
waste doesn't really apply. 
And then I love that I gets 

962
00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:18,040
really serious and commands May 
to never say that to anyone ever

963
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:21,560
again and May freezes like she's
like OK shit I thought we were 

964
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:25,880
flirting I did something wrong. 
I thought we were flirting and 

965
00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:28,560
being silly. 
And now it's been less than 24 

966
00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:30,800
hours and I've already fucked 
this shut up Oh my God. 

967
00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:36,960
But I just being an ass and says
it's too cute and it's really 

968
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:40,160
nice to see them being playful 
and cute because we've been 

969
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:43,480
through emotional hell during 
act three of the story and I 

970
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:46,560
needed this tooth rotting fluff 
that is currently on display. 

971
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:49,320
Personally, it's it's quite 
nice. 

972
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,800
It was quite nice. 
Finally, this whole part minus 

973
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:58,160
what's about to happen is just 
very happy and just feel good. 

974
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:01,640
Tooth rotting fluff. 
Go see a dentist everyone. 

975
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,360
OK so to your point, they're 
giggling. 

976
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:10,440
Gay fest ends abruptly when May 
gets a text from her father and 

977
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:16,160
it's a meme I guess of a yellow 
orchid flower at a text that 

978
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:21,800
says hello happy Monday which is
so random to get when from your 

979
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:26,160
estranged father. 
Yes, 100%. 

980
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:31,240
OK, so May is about to like, 
transition back to like battle 

981
00:55:31,240 --> 00:55:33,520
mode in a minute and try to 
decipher the code of whatever 

982
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:35,040
this is. 
And so I'm going to help her out

983
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:38,040
a little bit because yellow 
orchids, and this is a yellow 

984
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,280
orchids will keep coming up. 
So like, what the hell does it 

985
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:43,920
symbolize? 
So yellow in general can mean 

986
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:47,360
joy, friendship. 
Yellow orchids can mean that 

987
00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:49,240
too, but they can also mean new 
beginnings. 

988
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:53,760
And I'm sure that's what the 
writers wanted us to pick up on.

989
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:58,760
But I'm with May in this scene, 
OK, When she's looking at this, 

990
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:02,480
and thanks to trauma, May's 
initial reaction is suspicion 

991
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:05,320
because what the fuck is this? 
And also what does it mean? 

992
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,320
And what does he want? 
And does he know I'm back with 

993
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:09,680
I? 
Is this a threat? 

994
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:12,440
I feel like all of those 
questions are going through her 

995
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:15,280
mind when she's looking at this 
flower that says Happy Monday. 

996
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:19,640
And I think that's fair. 
I think that's fair, knowing 

997
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:22,200
what we know about I and May's 
father's relationship since she 

998
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,760
was a child. 
Don't you agree? 

999
00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:31,200
OK, and then I is looking at 
this and she's like, well what's

1000
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:34,240
going on? 
And May immediately tells her 

1001
00:56:34,240 --> 00:56:38,160
and by and hands over her phone.
So finally these two were done 

1002
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:42,240
keeping secrets from each other.
And then May crosses her arms, 

1003
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:44,640
closing herself off while I 
inspects the text. 

1004
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:48,640
And I concludes that this random
Monday mean is pretty normal for

1005
00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:51,040
boomers to send because 
apparently meanwhile does it all

1006
00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:55,920
the time. 
OK, so first, I love that I put 

1007
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:58,920
Mima and May's father in the 
same age category. 

1008
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:00,800
They're nowhere near the same 
age. 

1009
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:04,760
I do love that. 
But also, she's not wrong. 

1010
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:08,440
My father also sends me this 
type of stuff for like holidays 

1011
00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:12,120
and my birthday. 
I'm like, OK, you figured out 

1012
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:18,680
the gifts and the graphics. 
Great job, dad, Right. 

1013
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,600
So random, right. 
So like, it's not, again, just 

1014
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:25,520
looking at that being like, my 
dad, my dad sent me this with no

1015
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:26,560
context. 
Yeah. 

1016
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,240
I's response is like, yeah, 
that's what people who didn't 

1017
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,680
grow up with the Internet do. 
Sure. 

1018
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:35,960
OK. 
But again, trauma and the 

1019
00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:38,520
context. 
I Who is sending this text? 

1020
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:41,960
So May insist that it's never 
that simple when it comes to her

1021
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:46,800
father because he's never done 
anything like this, meaning that

1022
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:50,960
her father has never done 
anything kind to her just for 

1023
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:56,160
the sake of being kind. 
And that is supremely fucked up.

1024
00:57:56,520 --> 00:58:00,240
And the root of May's insecurity
is when it comes to love and 

1025
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:03,840
relationships. 
It's that deep. 

1026
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:08,760
OK. 
And according to May, her father

1027
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:12,800
is an elitist self-serving 
bastard that views people as 

1028
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,320
pawns on a chess board. 
Her words not mine. 

1029
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:17,680
She's not wrong either. 
Absolutely not. 

1030
00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:21,320
That is what we have been shown 
consistently throughout the 

1031
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:25,720
series. 
For once I'm on May's side. 

1032
00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:30,040
100,000 percent on May's side in
the sea I think. 

1033
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:31,800
Eyes being insane, but also 
eyes. 

1034
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:34,920
And that's fine. 
OK. 

1035
00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:40,840
And then hearing all of this, I 
decides to ask May if she's seen

1036
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:43,280
her father at all over the last 
year. 

1037
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:48,080
And it's like, what do you mean?
I you're acting like you've 

1038
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:50,960
never met May's father. 
I know, right? 

1039
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:53,160
You don't even want to be in the
same room as him, right? 

1040
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:55,680
You've met this man multiple 
times. 

1041
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:59,160
You've seen this man interact 
with May before. 

1042
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:05,040
And like I get that right now I 
own is in a better place with 

1043
00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:08,600
her family and wants that for me
because she loves me. 

1044
00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:12,120
And obviously in a perfect world
you would want your girlfriend 

1045
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:16,760
and her family to be whole and 
lovey dovey the way yours now 

1046
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:19,760
is. 
But you and your whole family 

1047
00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:24,480
went to therapy I so your family
healing after years of 

1048
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:28,920
dysfunction makes sense. 
The plot with me and her father 

1049
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:32,880
at this point does not and it 
never will because I was almost 

1050
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,240
like gaslighting man in this 
land, which like, how does it 

1051
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:38,040
feel me? 
But also like, this is fucked up

1052
00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:40,800
because I, you've met this man 
before. 

1053
00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:44,760
You've met him. 
You, you heard the whole story 

1054
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:47,120
from me where she was like, you 
know, the reason I got into all 

1055
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:48,960
this shit in the 1st place is 
because my father was 

1056
00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:52,440
threatening Umm's life. 
And so I ended up in the Batman 

1057
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:54,840
case because you heard all of 
that. 

1058
00:59:54,840 --> 01:00:00,040
Like, what is this? 
And May thinks this is weird 

1059
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:04,160
because it is weird. 
It's super weird, and you can't 

1060
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:08,200
convince me otherwise. 
OK. 

1061
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:10,640
But something that I do think is
important. 

1062
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:15,000
In the scene that May says when 
I asked this really stupid 

1063
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,240
question, I'm like, have you 
seen your dad in the past year? 

1064
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:22,520
May reveals that like, well, 
I've seen my mother, but not my 

1065
01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:26,600
father. 
And that makes sense given the 

1066
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,720
entire back story of May and her
parents. 

1067
01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:33,600
Like her mother is trapped in 
that marriage and like has done 

1068
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,280
little things in the past to 
support May. 

1069
01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:39,240
It hasn't always been enough. 
But it makes sense that May and 

1070
01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:41,560
her mother would see each other 
but not her father because her 

1071
01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:44,360
father was on his fuck shit her 
whole life. 

1072
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:48,640
I really hate this part. 
Same. 

1073
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,240
This also does not happen in the
novel. 

1074
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,760
GMMDV designed the freestyle. 
This too. 

1075
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:54,440
And why? 
To what end? 

1076
01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:56,760
To what end? 
Gmail TV You. 

1077
01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,320
Usually nail it. 
What the hell was this? 

1078
01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:02,680
Show me the receipts, but we'll 
get into There are none. 

1079
01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:04,720
There are no receipts here. 
OK. 

1080
01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:11,240
And then I it says OK, maybe 
your dad misses you. 

1081
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:15,280
And then may tries to reason why
her father is reaching out to 

1082
01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:18,120
her out of nowhere and comes to 
the conclusion that he must be 

1083
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:20,640
so I'll that his brain is 
malfunctioning. 

1084
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:24,920
And honestly, that is a much 
more plausible scenario than 

1085
01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:27,000
what Pluto the series is trying 
to give us. 

1086
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:33,280
OK, Honestly, yes, I, I'll say 
this in the next part that we 

1087
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:41,200
like the cover anyway, but like,
I would take, I would, I would 

1088
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:46,720
take over what happens that he 
has a tumor and like, we have to

1089
01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:50,480
support him through that. 
And like, because that makes 

1090
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:52,040
more sense. 
That makes way more sense. 

1091
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,720
And then she has to visit him on
his deathbed in the hospital and

1092
01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:58,480
we kind of make amends because 
what, even though it's unearned 

1093
01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:00,760
because like, what did umm just 
do? 

1094
01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:03,920
Umm let go of the past to make 
amends and forgive people so 

1095
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,320
that she can relieve herself 
with the burden and make them 

1096
01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:08,880
happy. 
And like, sure, that would make 

1097
01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:11,240
way more sense than whatever the
hell this was. 

1098
01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,320
So I'm super with me on this in 
this whole scene. 

1099
01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:20,000
And then this scene ends with 
May's mind racing 100 miles a 

1100
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:23,440
minute trying to mastermind her 
way out of this scenario and 

1101
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:25,160
figure out what the fuck her 
father is doing. 

1102
01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,960
Well, I watch as helplessly and 
looks really concerned because 

1103
01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:30,920
yeah, this is concerning. 
I what the fuck? 

1104
01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:36,080
And then we hard cut to I and 
May driving to Korat and May is 

1105
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:40,760
rubbing her hands together like 
clearly agitated while I drives 

1106
01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:43,600
and then asks I do we really 
have to go? 

1107
01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:46,200
I could just call them instead. 
Why I must be physically drive 

1108
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:49,840
there, gas money, I etcetera. 
And I responds, if you could, 

1109
01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:51,400
you wouldn't have gotten in the 
car with me. 

1110
01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:54,320
Like you need to go see for 
yourself and know what's going 

1111
01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,800
on with him, which is true. 
Like I knows Mae well enough to 

1112
01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:01,440
know that she needs all the 
facts and all the information, 

1113
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:05,280
even if the facts you yourself 
don't know about, she needs to 

1114
01:03:05,280 --> 01:03:06,320
know them. 
OK. 

1115
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:11,640
And then this car ride ends or 
the scene ends with them driving

1116
01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:14,200
intense silence all the way to 
May's family's house. 

1117
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:18,160
Poor May. 
I, you know, I feel bad for May 

1118
01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:20,120
in the scene. 
I do because I feel like she's 

1119
01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:24,400
kind of be, she's being gaslit 
by the writers, you know? 

1120
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:29,680
And I think this is like a time,
like, she's feeling anxiety too,

1121
01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:32,600
because, like, now she has to 
see her father that she hasn't 

1122
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:35,160
seen, like, and that is 
terrible. 

1123
01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:38,360
And she doesn't know what's 
going on. 

1124
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:40,440
Like, is she about to lose her 
father, too? 

1125
01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:42,840
Like, yeah, no. 
Does she care about losing her 

1126
01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:44,160
father also That. 
Yeah. 

1127
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,880
Like, what about her mom? 
Why doesn't her mom say 

1128
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:50,080
anything? 
Yeah, that's what I mean. 

1129
01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:52,240
I think her brain is just 
running through a million 

1130
01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:54,920
different scenarios right now. 
And I think that's why I is 

1131
01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:57,760
like, OK, I see. 
I see that look on your face. 

1132
01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:00,760
I know when you're strategizing,
let's go. 

1133
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,480
We have to physically go there 
because even if you got on the 

1134
01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:05,400
phone with them and talked to 
them, you're not going to fully 

1135
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:07,560
believe what they're saying. 
So I have to physically take you

1136
01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:09,400
there. 
So from I's point of view, like 

1137
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:12,120
driving her to crack actually 
does make a lot of sense because

1138
01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:14,760
she knows may well enough to 
know that like a phone call is 

1139
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,640
not going to satisfy you. 
Even if you were to call them. 

1140
01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:19,840
She's like, you could have 
called him right after you got 

1141
01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:21,760
that text and you didn't. 
So I don't think you're going 

1142
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:23,800
to. 
But it's also not going to 

1143
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:25,800
satisfy you. 
So, like, let us let's just go 

1144
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:29,600
there and just take all the 
mystery out of this, even though

1145
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:33,360
this is a mysterious scenario. 
Yeah. 

1146
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:36,080
And that concludes that scene. 
Yes. 

1147
01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:40,560
Before we get into Part 4, we're
going to take a brief pause to

1171
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:15,760
Excited so picking up with. 
Part 4 of this episode May and I

1172
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:19,840
arrive at May's parents house 
and as soon as May enters alone,

1173
01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:24,720
she is greeted by her father 
silently watching with his hands

1174
01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:28,360
in his pockets. 
And to me, it resembles weak 

1175
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:32,640
confidence, like with his hands 
in the pockets, it kind of 

1176
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:35,440
signals that he doesn't really 
know what to do or how to act 

1177
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:37,000
right now. 
'Cause this is. 

1178
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:40,080
New territory for him, this is 
new territory for us as well. 

1179
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:42,000
Like what the hell is happening?
What is happening? 

1180
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:48,440
Meanwhile, May's mom immediately
goes to May and asks her what 

1181
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:51,680
she wants to eat, and she will 
cook it for her right now. 

1182
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:56,600
Here's the deal though. 
Mae's mom was so happy to see 

1183
01:06:56,600 --> 01:07:00,320
Mae when she walks in this room.
And honestly, it to me, it felt 

1184
01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:04,600
really jarring giving where we 
left off with Mae's family, like

1185
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:06,840
the last time we had a scene 
with all of them. 

1186
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:11,400
And I, yes, I know a year has 
passed, but I I feel like we 

1187
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:13,800
could have had a few more scenes
with them prior to this 

1188
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:15,920
encounter to make this feel less
weird. 

1189
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:17,880
Like, even from Mae's mom. 
Yeah. 

1190
01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:23,360
I mean, like, you know, so Mom's
very eager to please and, like, 

1191
01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:26,400
show her how much she loves her.
And but that's. 

1192
01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,360
Too eager but like this is 
something that hasn't changed. 

1193
01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:34,160
Like she has always been like 
loving her daughter. 

1194
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:38,120
Oh I know but it's never been 
this like unrestrained like in 

1195
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:40,440
the presence of the dad. 
Like, that's what I mean by 

1196
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:43,920
jarring cause usually mom 
shrinks next to dad. 

1197
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:49,000
So like, this scene felt very 
jarring to me based on where we 

1198
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:51,200
left off with all of them. 
And if you look at Mae, Mae 

1199
01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,440
looks terrified of her parents 
in this scene because this is 

1200
01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:56,240
weird. 
And this all, all of this is 

1201
01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:58,360
behavior is atypical for them. 
Like all of it. 

1202
01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:01,640
Like in the context of 
everything, it's very strange. 

1203
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:07,560
Yeah. 
Anyway, yeah, But like, with the

1204
01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:11,920
way that mom is being very 
eager, like, I feel like, and 

1205
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:14,880
like she has been like this when
the father wasn't involved with 

1206
01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:16,880
me growing up. 
And I feel like she's just been 

1207
01:08:16,880 --> 01:08:20,359
trying to overcompensate for her
father's lack of love and like, 

1208
01:08:20,359 --> 01:08:22,279
the fact that she never stood up
for her. 

1209
01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:28,120
So especially now that she feels
comfortable being like this in 

1210
01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:30,920
front of the father, like she's 
trying to make up for all this 

1211
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:32,800
lost time. 
But to May, who doesn't 

1212
01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:34,920
understand the context of all 
this, it's fucking weird. 

1213
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,000
It is and it it will. 
It's still. 

1214
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:38,520
Weird. 
No matter how it keeps getting 

1215
01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:40,399
weird and it keeps getting 
weirder. 

1216
01:08:41,399 --> 01:08:47,960
OK, but May is too focused on 
her father right now, and she 

1217
01:08:47,960 --> 01:08:52,399
looks to him. 
Who gets this weird facial? 

1218
01:08:52,399 --> 01:08:57,160
Expression on his face. 
Like he is agreeing with her 

1219
01:08:57,160 --> 01:08:59,080
mother and wants May to answer 
her. 

1220
01:09:01,880 --> 01:09:05,800
And May tells her mom that she's
just passing by and so she stops

1221
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:10,120
to visit. 
But my miss mom is very focused 

1222
01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:13,520
on feeding her because that is 
how she can show her that she 

1223
01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:18,040
loves her. 
So she says that she should make

1224
01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:22,359
May something delicious, and I'm
just glad that she doesn't want 

1225
01:09:22,359 --> 01:09:23,880
to give her something 
disgusting. 

1226
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:27,000
Well, I think she's trying to. 
The other thing about the food 

1227
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:29,960
is like, yes, it's love 
language, but also if she cooks 

1228
01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:34,200
for her and May eats the food, 
that's a longer visit than May 

1229
01:09:34,319 --> 01:09:36,319
passing by. 
So I think she's trying to 

1230
01:09:36,319 --> 01:09:38,880
entice May to stay at the house 
longer. 

1231
01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:41,120
That's what this is. 
So she's just really selling it.

1232
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:44,439
Yeah. 
But Mae is like, I don't wanna 

1233
01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:47,319
be here in the 1st place, right?
She's rightfully suspicious of 

1234
01:09:47,319 --> 01:09:48,880
all this shit and looks fucking 
terrified. 

1235
01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:51,920
She's like, who are you that you
guys get abducted by aliens? 

1236
01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:55,120
Seriously. 
Since the last time we were all 

1237
01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:57,040
in a room together, Like. 
Yeah. 

1238
01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:59,360
So Mae tells her that it's OK 
and she's. 

1239
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:03,120
She was not gonna stay long. 
And Mae's response kind of makes

1240
01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:07,800
her mom's eyes go a bit wide, 
and she looks to her father, 

1241
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:11,960
prompting him to speak. 
And the first thing out of his 

1242
01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:15,360
mouth is to say that there are 
Chinese pears in the kitchen 

1243
01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:19,640
that are from Mae's favorite 
merchant and he bought them this

1244
01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:25,400
morning. 
And OK, if we have to have this 

1245
01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:28,800
arc that is about to happen, 
apparently we do. 

1246
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:34,680
At the very least, he didn't 
make the first thing out of his 

1247
01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:37,480
mouth. 
Something about him which is 

1248
01:10:37,480 --> 01:10:39,320
weird. 
Yes, it is weird from everything

1249
01:10:39,320 --> 01:10:42,160
we know about him. 
But yes, it was truly focused on

1250
01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:46,160
the conversation and about 
something that May likes and 

1251
01:10:46,160 --> 01:10:49,000
like he could have been like, I 
want to talk to you, blah, blah,

1252
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:50,520
blah. 
This is how I'm feeling. 

1253
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:59,880
Yeah, right. 
And the question is, did May's 

1254
01:10:59,880 --> 01:11:03,800
dad remember her favorite 
merchant and go there like, and 

1255
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:07,120
the and about the Paris or was 
it really her mom telling him to

1256
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:10,400
go get them? 
Because her mom talks about 

1257
01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:14,560
remembering how much she loved 
them as a kid and offers to peel

1258
01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:17,960
some and pack them to go. 
I'm going with that one. 

1259
01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:22,320
Yeah, probably. 
But you know, so during all 

1260
01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:27,280
this, May looks so confused and 
a little concerned because what 

1261
01:11:27,280 --> 01:11:32,240
the hell is happening? 
Seriously, She has IMA in these 

1262
01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:36,720
two scenes and all these scenes 
and like, like we just brought 

1263
01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:39,400
up like, yes, her mom's usually 
like this, but her father 

1264
01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:42,560
usually stops the mom from 
actually being nice to her. 

1265
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:46,240
Yes, it's like too much. 
And I would be even more 

1266
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:48,040
suspicious of this because it's 
almost like they're 

1267
01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:50,960
overcompensating and 
overcompensating for what? 

1268
01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,360
Like if I was May, I'd be like, 
what the fuck are you guys 

1269
01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:55,400
hiding? 
Who is dying? 

1270
01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:57,320
Like, you know what I mean? 
Like this is all. 

1271
01:11:57,320 --> 01:11:59,800
It seems like there's something 
they're trying to smooth 

1272
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:03,680
something else over by being way
too nice because they've never 

1273
01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:08,080
been this, this nice to her. 
Like even the mom, like mom has 

1274
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:13,200
been nice and loving to me, but 
not this strongly, you know what

1275
01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:15,040
I mean? 
Like this is a lot coming at her

1276
01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:17,720
even from mom. 
Mom's been more subtle, you know

1277
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:19,200
what I mean? 
In the scenes that we've gotten 

1278
01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:24,000
previously, this is unrestrained
and it's very weird given her 

1279
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:27,440
conservative household. 
Like it's just this is like the 

1280
01:12:27,440 --> 01:12:30,640
equivalent of like PDA, you know
what I mean? 

1281
01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:33,960
Where it's like this is very. 
You guys have never done this 

1282
01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:37,920
before, ever. 
Yeah. 

1283
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:41,840
So May just politely smiles and 
nods because. 

1284
01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:44,120
What else do you do? 
When you enter an alternate 

1285
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:45,160
universe. 
Serious. 

1286
01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:47,560
No, seriously, It's like she 
entered. 

1287
01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:49,240
Yeah, yeah, that's exactly what 
this is. 

1288
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:55,760
May's face goes back to 
confusion when she's left alone 

1289
01:12:55,760 --> 01:13:01,040
with her father. 
And she looks like a small child

1290
01:13:01,560 --> 01:13:04,560
a bit here because, like, she 
doesn't know how to act in front

1291
01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:06,920
of him or even what to say right
now. 

1292
01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:14,000
And we go to a wide shot here, 
like, where we see the father 

1293
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:15,760
and may I forget the father's 
name. 

1294
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:17,080
It doesn't. 
It's just the father who cares. 

1295
01:13:17,480 --> 01:13:20,440
And they like, And there's a 
sizable gap between them and, 

1296
01:13:20,440 --> 01:13:22,360
like, the cameras further away 
from them. 

1297
01:13:22,680 --> 01:13:26,680
And this is giving the audience 
the feeling of awkwardness and 

1298
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:29,800
just the amount of distance 
between these two emotionally 

1299
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:30,440
right now. 
Yeah. 

1300
01:13:30,440 --> 01:13:33,440
Yeah. 
Not on the same page. 

1301
01:13:35,280 --> 01:13:38,760
And May starts by saying that 
she saw his message and asks him

1302
01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:41,760
if he wants something because 
like, yeah, valid. 

1303
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:43,880
That that's what usually 
happens, Yes. 

1304
01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:50,800
And her dad fidgets a little and
then says wasn't it pretty? 

1305
01:13:52,360 --> 01:13:54,720
Which confuses me even more. 
And her. 

1306
01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:56,760
Face. 
Kind of stutters before she asks

1307
01:13:56,760 --> 01:14:00,720
what because what? 
OK this? 

1308
01:14:00,800 --> 01:14:03,880
It reads like this is his first 
human conversation. 

1309
01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:06,480
You know what I mean? 
It reads like this is the first 

1310
01:14:06,480 --> 01:14:08,600
time he's having a conversation 
with another human being. 

1311
01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:12,600
He's just so awkward about it. 
Yeah, It's like, this is my 

1312
01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:14,920
first human conversation. 
Like, it is, though, because 

1313
01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:17,040
trying to learn how to be a 
person, that's how this reads. 

1314
01:14:17,440 --> 01:14:19,560
He's usually demanding something
from somebody. 

1315
01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:23,400
So this probably is the first 
conversation he had out of 

1316
01:14:23,400 --> 01:14:27,840
nowhere and like. 
OK, so back to May being like 

1317
01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:28,800
what? 
Like. 

1318
01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:31,560
He just shows up out of the. 
Blue sending her a message 

1319
01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:37,080
because it was quote pretty and 
like hold on to your what's May,

1320
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:41,200
because the what's are about to 
keep on coming and they can't 

1321
01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:47,680
stop and they won't stop. 
But May's face is hilarious 

1322
01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:50,360
because she's she's genuinely 
confused here. 

1323
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:53,600
I bet she should be. 
And her father? 

1324
01:14:53,600 --> 01:14:57,560
Clarifies that he is talking 
about the flower photo and he 

1325
01:14:57,560 --> 01:14:59,440
thought it was pretty so he sent
it to her. 

1326
01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:05,080
And. 
Sorry, May's just like that 

1327
01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:09,120
cannot be the reason his brain 
is broken. 

1328
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:13,440
I use May in her mind being 
like, I think he's got three 

1329
01:15:13,480 --> 01:15:16,080
months left to live. 
Like, yeah, definitely. 

1330
01:15:18,560 --> 01:15:23,520
And like, May isn't sure how to 
respond, so we go back to a wide

1331
01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:27,200
shot of them again. 
And so I want to talk about that

1332
01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:29,480
for a second, like now. 
When you go. 

1333
01:15:29,480 --> 01:15:31,840
To a wide shot in the middle of 
a scene. 

1334
01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:34,920
So usually wide shots are like 
establishing at the very 

1335
01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:39,200
beginning that and then we get 
closer to like be to really get 

1336
01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:42,400
absorbed into the scene. 
So when you go to a wide shot in

1337
01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:43,160
the. 
Middle of the scene. 

1338
01:15:43,160 --> 01:15:46,400
It is meant to take the audience
out of the emotion that is 

1339
01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:49,120
happening. 
Yeah. 

1340
01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:52,000
And here it's used to show the 
disconnect between me and her 

1341
01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:54,880
father because they're still not
on the same page. 

1342
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:57,960
Because Mei can't figure out her
father's intentions. 

1343
01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:02,160
Since this is all new territory 
for everyone involved, it's 

1344
01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:07,760
valid, very valid, Mei. 
And if her father wasn't being 

1345
01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:10,600
out of character enough, let's 
keep going. 

1346
01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:14,200
He then tells her that her 
friend doesn't have to wait out 

1347
01:16:14,200 --> 01:16:19,800
in the car and is then concerned
because it is hot and May is 

1348
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:21,280
probably like, oh, is this a 
threat? 

1349
01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:23,400
You know, Umm's here. 
I mean, I, I mean, oh, shit. 

1350
01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:24,880
Is he you're going to try to 
murder them again? 

1351
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:28,880
Like, again, I would love to 
know the inner monologue in her 

1352
01:16:29,040 --> 01:16:33,760
that May is having at the scene.
Oh, yeah, seriously. 

1353
01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:37,680
And like, here he is caring 
about someone else and it 

1354
01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:41,400
doesn't directly affect him or 
seems to care about somebody 

1355
01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:43,840
else or, or does it? 
It might affect him. 

1356
01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:44,240
All right. 
Right. 

1357
01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:47,400
Because now that I think about 
it, it could be a lot like how 

1358
01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:48,800
we are reading into May. 
Absolutely. 

1359
01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:52,440
And like, her father might not 
actually care about I, but May 

1360
01:16:52,440 --> 01:16:54,920
does, which means he has to as 
well. 

1361
01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:56,200
Correct. 
If he wants to get to May. 

1362
01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:57,280
This is where she learned it 
from. 

1363
01:16:57,280 --> 01:16:59,120
It's genetic. 
Yeah. 

1364
01:16:59,440 --> 01:17:00,920
No. 
Yes, absolutely. 

1365
01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:06,080
I cosign that read and when and 
when he tells her to tell her 

1366
01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:09,800
friend to come inside, Mae's 
face is the most surprised out 

1367
01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:11,960
of this whole conversation. 
Because this has. 

1368
01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:17,040
Never happened because who is 
this man and what has he done to

1369
01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:20,360
her father? 
Yes, think about the last again.

1370
01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:24,440
The last time that they were in 
a room together that we saw, 

1371
01:17:24,440 --> 01:17:26,960
remember, that's when Mae was 
like, oh, there's going to be a 

1372
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:29,200
new Batman case. 
I'm not representing him. 

1373
01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:31,200
He's going down. 
You're going down too, for your 

1374
01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:35,480
shady shit. 
And then I shows up and then 

1375
01:17:35,480 --> 01:17:37,680
what does he say? 
He's like you again. 

1376
01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:39,640
You have the nerve to come into 
my house. 

1377
01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:43,920
That's how he treats I and umm, 
or whoever he thinks she is. 

1378
01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:48,240
And so, like, here he is being 
like your friend, You know, the 

1379
01:17:48,240 --> 01:17:49,840
one I hate. 
She should come inside because 

1380
01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:51,760
it's hot outside. 
It feels like a threat. 

1381
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,000
Like, if I was a man, I'd be 
like, are you threatening her 

1382
01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:56,760
right now? 
Like, because he was like, how 

1383
01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:58,240
dare you come into my house the 
last time? 

1384
01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:03,520
Yeah, So it's just all seems 
really crazy coming from it. 

1385
01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:06,880
Like if you're may in the scene 
and and us because what is this 

1386
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:09,080
and why? 
But like seriously, what is 

1387
01:18:09,080 --> 01:18:11,680
happening like this makes no 
sense, makes no sense in the 

1388
01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:15,160
context of the show. 
And like, we aren't even into 

1389
01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:17,960
the craziest part of the 
so-called redemption work yet. 

1390
01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:22,640
We're just. 
Getting started and we've also. 

1391
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:27,760
Talked a lot about how May likes
to be in control and is always 

1392
01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:33,240
10 steps ahead of everyone. 
She she's right there before 

1393
01:18:33,240 --> 01:18:34,600
you're even thinking about 
something. 

1394
01:18:35,480 --> 01:18:39,760
Right now she's feeling like 
she's 100 steps behind and 

1395
01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:42,680
doesn't even see how to figure 
out what is going on right now 

1396
01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:44,480
basically. 
May. 

1397
01:18:44,480 --> 01:18:46,080
Is the audience right now? 
Yes. 

1398
01:18:49,440 --> 01:18:51,120
All right. 
So we then cut to. 

1399
01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:55,600
These family photos on the 
mantle and the photos we see 

1400
01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:58,960
have no emotion in them. 
The faces are expressionless 

1401
01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:03,440
and, like, more typical of what 
we see from the father. 

1402
01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:07,560
There is also distance between 
the three of them. 

1403
01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:09,280
And like, the group family 
photo. 

1404
01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:13,600
And like, even in the photo of 
just her parents, it's her mom 

1405
01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:16,000
who has to reach out to her 
father, who is not even 

1406
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:18,880
reciprocating. 
Classic conservatism and a 

1407
01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:20,000
patriarchy. 
Yeah. 

1408
01:19:20,920 --> 01:19:24,640
And these photos. 
Are being used to contrast how 

1409
01:19:24,640 --> 01:19:27,400
the father is behaving right now
like but I don't understand why 

1410
01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:29,320
they did this because it just 
makes it even more out of 

1411
01:19:29,320 --> 01:19:32,920
character for that's exactly. 
It just reinforces not helping 

1412
01:19:32,920 --> 01:19:34,240
their case for this redemption 
art. 

1413
01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:38,560
It reinforces how there's no 
receipts for this scene at all. 

1414
01:19:39,720 --> 01:19:45,040
Seriously. 
OK, so we then go to May with 

1415
01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:49,000
her mom in the kitchen and May 
still seems confused and 

1416
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:52,080
concerned and tells her mom that
she has a serious question, 

1417
01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:57,040
which is is her dad doing OK or 
is he like sick and not telling 

1418
01:19:57,040 --> 01:19:58,880
her? 
Because like, here's the deal. 

1419
01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:01,960
I think that May came to the 
conclusion that her father is 

1420
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:05,640
now suddenly trying to rack up a
bunch of good merit because he's

1421
01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:07,880
on his deathbed. 
And that's why he that's why 

1422
01:20:07,880 --> 01:20:11,720
she's so insistent in the scene 
that he's not well, like health 

1423
01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:14,120
wise because she's like, I feel 
like he's trying to change his 

1424
01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:17,040
karma before he is reincarnated 
or some shit. 

1425
01:20:17,040 --> 01:20:19,440
Like, yeah, that's like, that's 
a great point. 

1426
01:20:19,440 --> 01:20:23,840
And that's a very valid 
conclusion to come to if based 

1427
01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:25,800
on literally everything that has
happened at the show. 

1428
01:20:28,480 --> 01:20:33,080
And then like her mom seriously,
seriously asked, why would you 

1429
01:20:33,080 --> 01:20:36,240
think that? 
I think the fact that mom is so 

1430
01:20:36,360 --> 01:20:40,600
uncurious about dad's change in 
behaviour is wild. 

1431
01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:42,960
Well, apparently we do address 
that in like a second. 

1432
01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:45,040
But like I still don't buy it 
but like. 

1433
01:20:45,240 --> 01:20:47,440
I don't know. 
Why she would she think that? 

1434
01:20:47,440 --> 01:20:50,400
Because there's a friendly alien
that has possessed his body. 

1435
01:20:52,040 --> 01:20:53,160
I know. 
But like, mom does not think 

1436
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:54,280
twice about it. 
She's like, I don't know, he's 

1437
01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:55,400
in a good mood. 
Let's move on. 

1438
01:20:55,560 --> 01:20:59,440
Because like, I think that she 
has been so abused by this man 

1439
01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:03,200
that she's just happy he's isn't
emotionally and physically 

1440
01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:05,360
assaulting her anymore. 
And she's just trying to keep 

1441
01:21:05,360 --> 01:21:07,080
him happy. 
So she's like, I don't want to 

1442
01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:08,920
poke. 
We got a good thing going here. 

1443
01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:11,000
Why ask questions? 
That's Mom's energy. 

1444
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:12,560
Yeah. 
Like, she's just tired of having

1445
01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:15,760
to live this terrible life. 
But like, Mom's energy being 

1446
01:21:15,760 --> 01:21:20,040
uncurious about this 180 pivot 
makes sense because she's had 

1447
01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:23,520
Stockholm syndrome the whole 
show when it comes to this guy. 

1448
01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:25,440
So like, Mom's behavior makes 
sense. 

1449
01:21:25,440 --> 01:21:28,440
So like, so babe's never going 
to get answers out of those 

1450
01:21:28,760 --> 01:21:30,120
conversations, is what I'm 
saying? 

1451
01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:37,120
Like real ones. 
OK, so her mom then goes back to

1452
01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:39,960
peeling pears like everything is
normal, which it isn't. 

1453
01:21:40,520 --> 01:21:46,120
So May emphasizes that he sent 
her a photo of flowers, flowers 

1454
01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:50,640
mom. 
And her mom smiles and says that

1455
01:21:50,640 --> 01:21:53,960
he sends them to her too and 
that he has been into planting 

1456
01:21:53,960 --> 01:21:56,760
flowers lately and maybe he just
wanted to share it with her. 

1457
01:21:58,120 --> 01:22:03,600
So has my question is, has he 
also gone into a treatment 

1458
01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:06,160
center where like they told him 
to get a hobby to use as a 

1459
01:22:06,160 --> 01:22:09,640
coping skill or something like 
mom did not come from? 

1460
01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:11,520
Mom did not mention that. 
That's what I mean by mom is 

1461
01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:13,760
uncurious about what happened. 
She's like, I don't know, he 

1462
01:22:13,760 --> 01:22:15,760
plays Flowers now. 
But. 

1463
01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:17,240
Why? 
When did this happen? 

1464
01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:18,920
What is he doing? 
Yeah, that's what I mean by 

1465
01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:21,560
she's not curious about why he 
changed his behavior. 

1466
01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:23,760
She's just like, I don't know. 
It is what it is now. 

1467
01:22:25,480 --> 01:22:27,440
Yeah. 
Mae's like, this is weird. 

1468
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:32,720
Yeah, anyway, this this whole 
thing doesn't make it a goddamn 

1469
01:22:32,720 --> 01:22:34,240
sense and it never will. 
But anyway, can do you. 

1470
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:41,480
May isn't convinced that this is
normal and asked her mom when 

1471
01:22:41,480 --> 01:22:43,640
the last time he had a health 
check up was. 

1472
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:45,000
I know. 
Yeah, I'm with May. 

1473
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:49,880
And like, it's, it's a valid 
concern because your mom's left 

1474
01:22:49,920 --> 01:22:52,760
like we talked about, like this 
guy could have a tumor affecting

1475
01:22:52,760 --> 01:22:54,320
his behavior and making him 
nice. 

1476
01:22:54,320 --> 01:22:56,560
But again, the mom just like 
just wants to go with it. 

1477
01:22:56,560 --> 01:22:58,320
Again, mom again, dad is 
selfish. 

1478
01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:01,440
So he could be like, I'm trying 
to make amends before I leave 

1479
01:23:01,440 --> 01:23:04,040
this world. 
That way when I'm reincarnated, 

1480
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:09,360
I'm not a bug or whatever. 
So he's like, again, it's that 

1481
01:23:09,360 --> 01:23:14,680
would be a self motivated reason
to be nice because if May and 

1482
01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:18,880
her dad share that in common. 
But of course, May would be 

1483
01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:21,520
like, if this were me, that's 
what I would do. 

1484
01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:25,040
So like, yeah, like, you know, I
think maybe she's projecting a 

1485
01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:29,400
bit here too. 
There's no way this is selfless 

1486
01:23:29,400 --> 01:23:31,440
is what May is getting at. 
And mom's like, I don't know, 

1487
01:23:31,440 --> 01:23:32,280
he's being nice. 
Just. 

1488
01:23:32,440 --> 01:23:33,840
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

1489
01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:36,440
She does say, like, she also 
wondered the same thing at 

1490
01:23:36,440 --> 01:23:39,000
first, but he is healthy and she
doesn't know what changed him. 

1491
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:42,600
Again, I'm curious. 
She's uncurious about this. 

1492
01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:45,440
Anyway, it's ridiculous. 
Sorry. 

1493
01:23:45,440 --> 01:23:46,640
I kid you. 
It's just the same. 

1494
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:51,800
Pisses me off, her mom 
continues. 

1495
01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:55,920
And like brings up when May told
him someone made him blind and 

1496
01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:58,400
that she thinks that he has been
cured. 

1497
01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:00,640
Now all our problems have gone 
away. 

1498
01:24:00,640 --> 01:24:07,360
Just let's focus on that. 
And this is a lot for May to 

1499
01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:12,560
take in, and she still seems 
confused, but maybe her words 

1500
01:24:12,560 --> 01:24:15,480
had a positive effect on him. 
She's like, he's never once 

1501
01:24:15,480 --> 01:24:17,680
listened to me in my entire 
life, why would he suddenly 

1502
01:24:17,680 --> 01:24:19,920
listen to me now? 
Also makes no sense. 

1503
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:25,000
Yep. 
All right. 

1504
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:28,800
So we then cut to eye walking 
around the outside of the house 

1505
01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:37,040
and she starts to admire all the
plants when well, no, she 

1506
01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:43,280
gravitates to the yellow orchid.
Yes, because the writers are 

1507
01:24:43,280 --> 01:24:45,440
trying to symbolize something 
here, but I don't believe it. 

1508
01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:50,360
New beginnings, that's what this
is supposed to be, this whole 

1509
01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:52,440
scene, but I don't buy it 
because it came out of nowhere. 

1510
01:24:53,640 --> 01:25:01,680
Yes, as I is admiring this 
yellow orchid, May's dad comes 

1511
01:25:01,680 --> 01:25:05,560
up behind her scaring the shit 
out of her when he asks do you 

1512
01:25:05,560 --> 01:25:07,920
like them? 
Hein. 

1513
01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,200
Quickly. 
Stands up and greets him as he 

1514
01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:13,920
smiles weirdly. 
Like his smile isn't weird, it's

1515
01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:17,840
just weird that he's smiling. 
Yes, which makes it a weird 

1516
01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:20,960
smile. 
Then he says something 

1517
01:25:20,960 --> 01:25:24,000
stereotypical, which is the 
least surprising part of this 

1518
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:27,400
whole thing, which is that she 
is a girl, so she he assumes 

1519
01:25:27,400 --> 01:25:31,920
that she likes flowers. 
Yeah, I will say that this 

1520
01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:36,600
conversation is the weirdest 
combination of sexism and 

1521
01:25:36,600 --> 01:25:40,640
chivalry that I've ever seen 
because, yeah, it starts with, 

1522
01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:44,200
hey, you're a girl, so you like 
flowers, which is the sexism 

1523
01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:46,960
part. 
And then it transitions into the

1524
01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:50,160
use of poetic language in a 
plant to say I give you 

1525
01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:53,120
permission to marry my daughter.
Like, it's the weirdest fucking 

1526
01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:56,520
thing I've ever seen. 
Yeah, it's so weird. 

1527
01:25:57,360 --> 01:26:01,720
That's basically the same. 
Yep, moving. 

1528
01:26:01,720 --> 01:26:03,040
On to the next scene. 
I'm kidding. 

1529
01:26:03,120 --> 01:26:05,280
We're going to keep going with 
the scene, all right. 

1530
01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:08,760
So he continues to say that he 
doesn't think May does though, 

1531
01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:13,680
because apparently his yellow, 
the one meme he sent her, didn't

1532
01:26:13,680 --> 01:26:20,400
go over well. 
And it's like, Sir, I looks 

1533
01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:23,080
concerned herself here because. 
How do you react? 

1534
01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:27,320
To May is Dad being nice? 
Apparently I has amnesia about 

1535
01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:30,600
who this man is, which is like 
you haven't seen your dad in a 

1536
01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:33,840
year. 
I do not remember him like what 

1537
01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:39,360
the hell I, and like she does 
tell him that May does like the 

1538
01:26:39,480 --> 01:26:45,400
like flowers and. 
And there is a couple seconds of

1539
01:26:45,440 --> 01:26:50,640
awkwardness before May's dad 
grabs the orchid that I was 

1540
01:26:50,640 --> 01:26:54,960
admiring and asks I to help 
plant it at May's house. 

1541
01:26:56,880 --> 01:27:00,520
And I'm going to stop describing
the confused faces now because 

1542
01:27:00,520 --> 01:27:03,320
we should all just assume I and 
May both look confused the 

1543
01:27:03,320 --> 01:27:05,480
entire time the dad is involved.
Yes. 

1544
01:27:07,120 --> 01:27:14,040
And I nods, agreeing to help 
plant it, and May's dad hands 

1545
01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:18,040
the plant over to I and tells 
her to take good care of it. 

1546
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:22,760
He isn't talking about the 
plant, though, because the plant

1547
01:27:22,960 --> 01:27:25,400
is a metaphor for May. 
Also. 

1548
01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:27,720
I does not plant plant it. 
She. 

1549
01:27:27,800 --> 01:27:29,720
No, she doesn't. 
They also don't take care of it.

1550
01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:31,160
Right. 
But anyway, that's beyond the 

1551
01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:33,680
point. 
Yeah. 

1552
01:27:33,800 --> 01:27:37,200
So like, she was the the plant 
is the metaphor for May. 

1553
01:27:37,440 --> 01:27:40,840
She was admiring something that 
he cherished the plant and May. 

1554
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:44,720
And this is her dad giving his 
blessing and asking I to take 

1555
01:27:44,720 --> 01:27:48,640
care of his daughter. 
Yes, and like now that I think 

1556
01:27:48,640 --> 01:27:53,600
about it, maybe plants were like
his way of redeeming himself 

1557
01:27:53,600 --> 01:27:57,680
with raising may cause like 
maybe maybe. 

1558
01:27:57,680 --> 01:27:59,200
He. 
Thought that if he could, like, 

1559
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:04,120
raise these plants and give them
a good life, then he can prove 

1560
01:28:04,120 --> 01:28:07,280
to himself that he is a better 
person and he can make up for 

1561
01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:08,960
the things that he's done in the
past. 

1562
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:11,800
Yeah, it involves a lot of 
reading into that to get there. 

1563
01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:15,920
But it is plausible because he 
also picks orchids, which are 

1564
01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:19,720
notoriously difficult plants to 
take care of. 

1565
01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:22,440
Like, they're absolutely the 
worst. 

1566
01:28:22,440 --> 01:28:26,000
My wife takes care of her kids. 
They're babies, like, worse than

1567
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:27,640
babies. 
Like, you have to give them 

1568
01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:30,000
filtered water or they'll get 
viruses and, like, do all. 

1569
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:31,640
They're ridiculous to take care 
of. 

1570
01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:34,960
So he picked a very challenging 
group, like plant to take care 

1571
01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:38,520
of and then gives this to I and 
me, who I'm not confident or 

1572
01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:41,000
that thing was dead in a week. 
Yeah, they're not equipped to 

1573
01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:43,800
take care of an orchid because 
organs are temperamental. 

1574
01:28:44,360 --> 01:28:49,800
But to your point, like, maybe, 
maybe no, eventually, like it 

1575
01:28:49,800 --> 01:28:54,080
starts dying and eyes like 
giving it to Pang. 

1576
01:28:54,680 --> 01:28:56,320
Yeah, that's it. 
Also like, to be fair, like 

1577
01:28:56,320 --> 01:28:58,920
organs do natively grow in 
Thailand. 

1578
01:28:58,920 --> 01:29:02,920
So it's also like, but still 
they're they're challenging 

1579
01:29:02,920 --> 01:29:05,240
plants to take care of just in 
general because they're very 

1580
01:29:05,240 --> 01:29:08,520
susceptible to like viruses and 
diseases and things like that, 

1581
01:29:08,520 --> 01:29:13,040
even in Thailand. 
So yeah, maybe that's your read 

1582
01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:15,440
is you're on to something with 
what the writers are trying to 

1583
01:29:15,440 --> 01:29:17,320
say. 
But again, I needed more 

1584
01:29:17,520 --> 01:29:20,200
conversations and words for it 
to be believable. 

1585
01:29:20,200 --> 01:29:21,680
But like, maybe that's what's 
happening. 

1586
01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:28,040
Yep, who knows? 
What I do know is this is dad 

1587
01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:31,600
accepting the boyfriend. 
That's what this is, Really. 

1588
01:29:32,960 --> 01:29:35,720
Yeah. 
And I and May's dad connect in 

1589
01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:38,840
this moment. 
And I knows exactly where what 

1590
01:29:38,840 --> 01:29:42,080
he is saying here. 
And like she says, of course, as

1591
01:29:42,080 --> 01:29:46,840
May's dad finally let's go of 
the plant, I then sincerely 

1592
01:29:46,840 --> 01:29:49,360
thanks him. 
And he once again smiles weirdly

1593
01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:52,720
and puts his hand in his pockets
because where else should he put

1594
01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:56,040
them? 
And I looks at the plan in her 

1595
01:29:56,040 --> 01:29:58,200
hands and just smiles because it
is beautiful. 

1596
01:29:58,360 --> 01:30:03,520
And so is May, and I guess what 
she wants, which is family 

1597
01:30:03,520 --> 01:30:05,040
acceptance, 'cause that's 
important. 

1598
01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:08,720
Yes, it is. 
All right, so the next scene. 

1599
01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:10,360
I. 
And May are saying goodbye to 

1600
01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:13,600
May's parents. 
And May is generally smiling 

1601
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,520
now, and she tells her dad that 
she will take good care of his 

1602
01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:20,000
flower. 
And her dad awkwardly smiles 

1603
01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:22,960
back at her, because he is. 
Also. 

1604
01:30:22,960 --> 01:30:26,400
Not used to being like this and 
is learning how to be a friendly

1605
01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:28,320
human. 
Yeah, he's learning how to be a 

1606
01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:33,520
human, but May looks really 
happy here and like, you can 

1607
01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:36,920
tell that this is something 
she's always wanted but like, 

1608
01:30:36,920 --> 01:30:39,640
never even dreamed. 
Like it could be something that 

1609
01:30:39,640 --> 01:30:42,520
she could actually have. 
I think she's also really 

1610
01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:47,960
excited about the dad accepting 
I probably more than anything, 

1611
01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:51,760
to be honest, because it was 
tumultuous to say at least what 

1612
01:30:51,760 --> 01:30:58,000
it came to. 
Yeah, so I was like, this has 

1613
01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:01,080
been enough and excuses them and
they leave the house. 

1614
01:31:02,120 --> 01:31:07,800
And after they leave, we cut to 
Mae's parents and her mom tells 

1615
01:31:07,800 --> 01:31:11,800
her father that he seems happier
and he also genuinely looks 

1616
01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:15,120
happier. 
And he he even reaches out to 

1617
01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:17,120
touch his wife's shoulder and 
bring her closer. 

1618
01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:19,600
That is huge. 
Oh my God. 

1619
01:31:19,600 --> 01:31:21,920
Physical affection from the 
father. 

1620
01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:25,680
What? 
And a genuine smile. 

1621
01:31:27,040 --> 01:31:32,080
I don't get it, but sure, sure. 
Yeah, that's all I got to. 

1622
01:31:32,120 --> 01:31:36,800
Say this is them. 
Trying OK moving on. 

1623
01:31:37,240 --> 01:31:39,320
Glad me and I are happy. 
We cut to May's. 

1624
01:31:39,320 --> 01:31:41,960
House where I is keeping her 
promise of taking care of the 

1625
01:31:41,960 --> 01:31:46,800
flower by spraying water on it. 
OK, yes, but she's not planting 

1626
01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:48,640
it. 
I mean, to be fair, it's pretty 

1627
01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:51,160
close to when they got it. 
Like, to be fair, the dad also 

1628
01:31:51,160 --> 01:31:53,880
didn't plant it, so there's 
that. 

1629
01:31:57,800 --> 01:32:03,480
I then opens her laptop to start
writing as May enters the room 

1630
01:32:03,520 --> 01:32:08,160
smiling at her phone and I 
assume that she's been texting 

1631
01:32:08,160 --> 01:32:10,920
with her dad and just exploring 
that new relationship. 

1632
01:32:10,920 --> 01:32:13,560
I wonder what kind of ridiculous
shit he's sending her now. 

1633
01:32:15,520 --> 01:32:19,520
May sits down close to I with 
her arms around her and asks her

1634
01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:23,360
what she is doing, to which she 
replies that she is writing her 

1635
01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:27,800
novel. 
And their song starts playing in

1636
01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:32,520
the background as we get a 
voiceover where I says I'm 

1637
01:32:32,520 --> 01:32:35,760
writing my new novel just like 
everyone else who is starting 

1638
01:32:35,760 --> 01:32:36,880
their new chapter. 
OK. 

1639
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:39,480
And I have to say the song that 
is playing is the acoustic 

1640
01:32:39,480 --> 01:32:41,240
version of Somewhere Only We 
Knows. 

1641
01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:43,520
We know because that was the 
dream song. 

1642
01:32:43,520 --> 01:32:46,120
And like it's like they're 
everybody's dreams come true. 

1643
01:32:46,120 --> 01:32:48,760
And that's the song that plays 
throughout the whole montage 

1644
01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:51,120
when we're about to catch up 
with everybody in the future. 

1645
01:32:51,480 --> 01:32:55,280
So I thought that was a 
appropriate song, and I like the

1646
01:32:55,280 --> 01:32:58,040
acoustic version because also it
makes it easier to facilitate 

1647
01:32:58,040 --> 01:32:59,800
the voice over. 
And it's just nice, the 

1648
01:32:59,800 --> 01:33:02,120
acoustic. 
Yes, it's a very beautiful song.

1649
01:33:02,120 --> 01:33:04,000
It is. 
OK. 

1650
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:07,040
So we cut to this montage of 
scenes showing the characters 

1651
01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:12,840
starting their new chapter. 
And May is with Ben, helping him

1652
01:33:12,840 --> 01:33:15,280
talk about the rights of people 
with disabilities. 

1653
01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:18,880
Now, why Ben couldn't have said 
this himself instead of May 

1654
01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:23,040
saying it for him, I don't know.
I think what this is is it's 

1655
01:33:23,160 --> 01:33:24,920
because if you look at who the 
other people are, I think 

1656
01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:26,280
there's supposed to be other 
lawyers. 

1657
01:33:26,440 --> 01:33:30,200
So I think this is May's lawyer,
the lawyer association that she 

1658
01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:32,360
was involved with when she was 
disabled. 

1659
01:33:32,360 --> 01:33:34,920
And now she's like, OK, well, 
I'm no longer a good 

1660
01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:38,760
representative of this group. 
How about he's the poster child 

1661
01:33:38,760 --> 01:33:42,040
to help us advocate because he's
living is the rest of his life 

1662
01:33:42,040 --> 01:33:43,800
with a disability. 
And I think this is her 

1663
01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:47,720
introducing Ben into this 
organization because I think 

1664
01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:50,960
this is the lawyers group. 
Yeah, that's fair. 

1665
01:33:54,080 --> 01:34:03,000
OK, so the next scene is Ploy. 
No, sorry, I is playing nice and

1666
01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:06,240
tries to get along with the 
terrace will twosome by giving 

1667
01:34:06,240 --> 01:34:10,760
them a copy of her book and Ploy
and Ploy is there too, but she 

1668
01:34:10,760 --> 01:34:13,720
probably already had a copy and 
like they're already on good 

1669
01:34:13,720 --> 01:34:15,440
terms. 
Yeah, I agree. 

1670
01:34:16,280 --> 01:34:17,880
She's still dating Tom as far as
we know. 

1671
01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:20,840
Personally, I think that this 
new chapter could be left 

1672
01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:23,000
unread. 
Yeah, same with me as Dad. 

1673
01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:24,040
I feel like I got these 
chapters. 

1674
01:34:25,360 --> 01:34:28,720
Yeah, the terrible twosome don't
deserve to be friends with. 

1675
01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:32,720
Why did they get her redemption 
at the end out of nowhere? 

1676
01:34:32,720 --> 01:34:37,960
Also, especially now that I as 
an author and like they can use 

1677
01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:41,040
that to their advantage. 
Also, like why does may care? 

1678
01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:42,560
Like why does may try to be 
friends? 

1679
01:34:42,560 --> 01:34:44,880
I guess the connection, she's 
like I we got to play nice with 

1680
01:34:44,880 --> 01:34:46,960
these motherfuckers because 
they're influential still, I 

1681
01:34:46,960 --> 01:34:48,800
guess. 
I guess that's like she's more 

1682
01:34:48,800 --> 01:34:52,320
influential than any of them. 
No, but still, like connections.

1683
01:34:52,320 --> 01:34:53,960
How? 
Yeah, it's how you have 

1684
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:56,080
influence. 
If you burn bridges, you lose 

1685
01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:57,680
influence. 
Nobody knows that. 

1686
01:34:57,800 --> 01:34:59,680
I know. 
So it's terrible to some, like 

1687
01:34:59,680 --> 01:35:02,840
especially the way that they 
say, like one of them says wow, 

1688
01:35:02,840 --> 01:35:04,520
you've become a serious writer. 
Right. 

1689
01:35:04,520 --> 01:35:06,000
Because they didn't change 
enough. 

1690
01:35:06,520 --> 01:35:08,120
No, so terrible. 
Yeah. 

1691
01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:13,840
I think this is May bragging 
about I more than anything, but 

1692
01:35:14,160 --> 01:35:17,040
whatever. 
Yeah, that's fair to those to 

1693
01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:19,640
May because, like, that's fair 
for her to brag. 

1694
01:35:21,120 --> 01:35:23,720
All right. 
Next scene is Jan and Pang are 

1695
01:35:23,720 --> 01:35:25,800
celebrating a three-year 
anniversary. 

1696
01:35:26,440 --> 01:35:30,200
I need to ask you, Theora, what 
of what of the plant shop Jan's 

1697
01:35:30,200 --> 01:35:33,680
business? 
No, this is the third year 

1698
01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:38,360
anniversary of this event where 
they have the job U hauling. 

1699
01:35:38,480 --> 01:35:41,520
So this is so the last time we 
saw this was the first time they

1700
01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:44,960
did the buy a plant get your 
fortune read situation. 

1701
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:47,240
They've been doing this. 
This is the third year now that 

1702
01:35:47,240 --> 01:35:49,840
they're doing this. 
So Congrats to Jan and paying 

1703
01:35:49,840 --> 01:35:52,480
for making it through at least 
three years as a couple. 

1704
01:35:52,760 --> 01:35:54,520
So it's the anniversary of this 
event. 

1705
01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:56,280
Got it. 
Great job. 

1706
01:35:56,440 --> 01:36:00,760
Guys. 
And Jan made it onto the poster.

1707
01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:04,200
It's a picture of Jan and some 
tarot cards. 

1708
01:36:04,200 --> 01:36:07,960
There's no plants on there. 
That's how proud of her 

1709
01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:11,160
girlfriend. 
That's why it says free fortune 

1710
01:36:11,160 --> 01:36:14,280
reading plus auspicious tree. 
But also, like, you would have 

1711
01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:15,240
to come here. 
Yeah. 

1712
01:36:15,240 --> 01:36:16,160
That. 
That was the event. 

1713
01:36:16,200 --> 01:36:18,640
You would have to be at the 
plant shop to see the signs. 

1714
01:36:18,640 --> 01:36:21,440
Would also make sense that 
you're mostly seeing the fortune

1715
01:36:21,440 --> 01:36:26,680
reading and the fortune teller. 
But Jan and Pang are still 

1716
01:36:26,680 --> 01:36:32,400
happily together and I assume 
living at Jan's I assume and 

1717
01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:34,640
Pang still looks like the one 
who fell the hardest in the 

1718
01:36:34,640 --> 01:36:35,480
relationship. 
Absolutely. 

1719
01:36:35,880 --> 01:36:38,240
Still fair. 
And the voice over. 

1720
01:36:38,960 --> 01:36:42,360
Then we get to a scene. 
Yes, the voice over continues. 

1721
01:36:42,360 --> 01:36:45,760
I learned that every time one 
story ends, the next begins and 

1722
01:36:45,760 --> 01:36:48,080
it's more fun, better and 
happier. 

1723
01:36:48,440 --> 01:36:50,160
OK, and then this. 
What is the scene? 

1724
01:36:50,240 --> 01:36:53,800
Then we check in with Officer. 
Hottie who is reading an. 

1725
01:36:53,800 --> 01:36:57,320
E-mail where the person says 
that they have reflected on 

1726
01:36:57,320 --> 01:37:00,200
their wrongdoing and deeply 
regret their actions. 

1727
01:37:00,920 --> 01:37:03,320
The person then offers their 
quote. 

1728
01:37:03,320 --> 01:37:07,760
Sincere apologies to her and I. 
Still want to know what the 

1729
01:37:07,760 --> 01:37:08,520
hell? 
Happened. 

1730
01:37:08,520 --> 01:37:10,960
Seriously what the fuck was 
this? 

1731
01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:15,000
Like you just randomly give that
to us? 

1732
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:18,600
There was no lead up. 
I mean there was 1 slight lead 

1733
01:37:18,600 --> 01:37:21,160
up to it but not really. 
No, no. 

1734
01:37:21,160 --> 01:37:25,240
OK, we could have ditched the 
dad redemption arc and actually 

1735
01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:31,760
explained this, but we made the 
choices that we made. 

1736
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:35,960
And that's the last we see of 
Officer Heidi is her crying, 

1737
01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:41,560
reading an e-mail that makes no 
sense to us, where she underwent

1738
01:37:41,560 --> 01:37:44,560
A wrongdoing off screen that 
nobody knew about. 

1739
01:37:45,440 --> 01:37:46,480
We need a. 
Spin. 

1740
01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:48,920
Off to actually. 
Explain what the hell happened. 

1741
01:37:50,240 --> 01:37:54,520
Yep, so she just got plutoed by 
the people that created Pluto 

1742
01:37:54,520 --> 01:37:56,640
the series. 
That was ridiculous. 

1743
01:37:56,760 --> 01:37:59,200
The terrible twosome. 
Get more time in this montage I 

1744
01:37:59,360 --> 01:38:02,720
do. 
Oh my God, because we go back to

1745
01:38:02,720 --> 01:38:06,600
the boys. 
Restaurant now so stupid and 

1746
01:38:07,200 --> 01:38:11,640
yeah, so I will go with Officer 
Hottie. 

1747
01:38:11,640 --> 01:38:15,840
In my mind, I should have been 
the montage. 

1748
01:38:17,320 --> 01:38:20,600
All right, so we're at Floyd's 
restaurant again, and I and May 

1749
01:38:20,600 --> 01:38:24,040
are being teased for being so 
cute together, which is valid, 

1750
01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:28,080
but and like Tan is now here and
unfortunately, the terrible 

1751
01:38:28,080 --> 01:38:34,480
twosome are as well. 
So ignoring them, the I and May 

1752
01:38:34,480 --> 01:38:37,320
are the happiest they have ever 
looked, especially I, whose 

1753
01:38:37,320 --> 01:38:39,200
smile literally can't be 
contained. 

1754
01:38:39,480 --> 01:38:42,160
Like their joy is radiating 
throughout the entire room. 

1755
01:38:42,160 --> 01:38:45,000
That's very cute. 
Oh God. 

1756
01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:48,280
And then our little montage ends
with I finishing printing out 

1757
01:38:48,280 --> 01:38:51,480
her new novel titled You Are My 
Caron. 

1758
01:38:51,760 --> 01:38:53,520
Hold on before you get into 
that. 

1759
01:38:53,960 --> 01:38:56,200
So I has just finished a new 
novel. 

1760
01:38:57,160 --> 01:39:02,720
So what is the reward that I 
gets from May for this new 

1761
01:39:02,720 --> 01:39:04,880
novel? 
Feel like it's marriage. 

1762
01:39:05,960 --> 01:39:08,760
That's why she had to finish it 
today. 

1763
01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:12,240
That that was the urgency. 
I feel like the reward was we 

1764
01:39:12,240 --> 01:39:15,000
get to get married when you 
finish writing this. 

1765
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:17,480
That's that's my take. 
But the fact that they planned 

1766
01:39:17,480 --> 01:39:20,880
it before she even finished, 
well, that's the deadline. 

1767
01:39:20,880 --> 01:39:23,640
She is impatient. 
So yeah, the deadline that 

1768
01:39:23,960 --> 01:39:28,160
attracts and like referring to 
the title, we're going to go 

1769
01:39:28,160 --> 01:39:32,440
over a little bit of what Caron 
and when I explains it to May in

1770
01:39:32,440 --> 01:39:35,640
the next scene. 
So look forward to that. 

1771
01:39:36,000 --> 01:39:37,440
All right, so. 
Meanwhile. 

1772
01:39:37,440 --> 01:39:41,280
Then interrupts I printing her 
novel and she tells her that May

1773
01:39:41,280 --> 01:39:43,920
is waiting for her and umm said 
she needs to hurry. 

1774
01:39:43,920 --> 01:39:46,680
So yes, you're I think you're I 
think I'm right. 

1775
01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:49,480
Thing is plausible like this was
her deadline. 

1776
01:39:49,840 --> 01:39:52,240
And. 
She's late now to her wedding 

1777
01:39:52,520 --> 01:39:54,840
girl. 
OK. 

1778
01:39:55,560 --> 01:39:59,240
And then we are going to 
transition into a scene I think 

1779
01:40:02,400 --> 01:40:05,080
that I may or may not have 
brought up in the very first 

1780
01:40:05,080 --> 01:40:08,680
episode. 
So Pluto loves the parallels, 

1781
01:40:08,680 --> 01:40:13,760
and we're about to get a scene 
that parallels the first time I 

1782
01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:16,840
and May met as adults. 
OK. 

1783
01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:21,360
And I'm going to go through this
scene by scene, so. 

1784
01:40:22,640 --> 01:40:32,000
OK so the scene I'm talking 
about is when is when I went to 

1785
01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:36,800
go see May to cosplay as UMM to 
break up with May. 

1786
01:40:36,800 --> 01:40:41,040
OK And the maid lets her inside 
and goes and tells May UMM is 

1787
01:40:41,040 --> 01:40:44,120
being weird. 
And then UMM, air quotes starts 

1788
01:40:44,120 --> 01:40:49,000
wandering around the mansion and
then I as UMM, ends up at this 

1789
01:40:49,000 --> 01:40:52,600
like side table where there's a 
candle and she leans in and 

1790
01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:55,280
smells the candle. 
And then eventually she's going 

1791
01:40:55,280 --> 01:41:00,120
to see May for the first time. 
If we go back to where we're at 

1792
01:41:00,120 --> 01:41:03,200
now, we're getting going to get 
the exact same scene beat by 

1793
01:41:03,200 --> 01:41:05,760
beat, but it's May smelling the 
candle. 

1794
01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:08,000
I is the one who's revealed to 
her. 

1795
01:41:08,000 --> 01:41:10,360
But I'm going to break down how 
they're similar and different. 

1796
01:41:10,800 --> 01:41:13,000
And so first, let's start with 
the wardrobe. 

1797
01:41:13,000 --> 01:41:16,880
So obviously this scene in 
episode 12 is the wedding scene.

1798
01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:19,480
Or like they're at least going 
to do their wedding photo shoot 

1799
01:41:19,480 --> 01:41:21,480
or something. 
It's really unclear. 

1800
01:41:21,560 --> 01:41:24,480
I think this is the wedding, but
like, I'm just going to call it 

1801
01:41:24,480 --> 01:41:26,160
the wedding. 
If it's wrong, it's wrong 

1802
01:41:26,360 --> 01:41:30,040
Anyway, so this is the wedding. 
OK, so May is obviously wearing 

1803
01:41:30,080 --> 01:41:31,880
a white dress because it's a 
wedding. 

1804
01:41:32,200 --> 01:41:35,880
But if you go back to the first 
meeting between I and May as 

1805
01:41:35,880 --> 01:41:39,480
adults, I was also wearing white
or like a cream color. 

1806
01:41:40,440 --> 01:41:42,080
Granted, it was Zoom's wardrobe,
but still. 

1807
01:41:42,280 --> 01:41:45,040
So they're both wearing similar 
colors and similar scenes. 

1808
01:41:45,760 --> 01:41:50,360
And if you go back and watch 
them like back-to-back and 

1809
01:41:50,360 --> 01:41:54,400
listen to the background music, 
it's like very, very similar 

1810
01:41:54,400 --> 01:41:57,280
background music. 
It's like this like soothing 

1811
01:41:57,280 --> 01:42:03,480
humming melody that I think is 
supposed to heighten senses or 

1812
01:42:03,480 --> 01:42:07,560
signal a heightening of senses 
because there's like a sensory 

1813
01:42:07,560 --> 01:42:09,520
thing going on with smelling the
candle, right? 

1814
01:42:11,120 --> 01:42:14,000
And if you were to also look at 
the way the two scenes are lit, 

1815
01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:17,000
they're both very golden 
looking. 

1816
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:20,640
OK, Because gonna be gonna be 
golden. 

1817
01:42:21,120 --> 01:42:25,040
Gonna be gonna be. 
But yeah, it's very hopeful type

1818
01:42:25,040 --> 01:42:28,720
of lighting, right? 
Very warm, loving, which makes 

1819
01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:30,440
sense for both of the scenes, 
right? 

1820
01:42:30,440 --> 01:42:35,040
The the wedding, obviously, it's
like a new beginning because 

1821
01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:37,720
we're going to start our next 
chapter of our lives as married 

1822
01:42:37,720 --> 01:42:40,320
people. 
And then the other scene at the 

1823
01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:43,040
beginning was also a new 
beginning because I and May are 

1824
01:42:43,040 --> 01:42:46,960
being reunited as adults where 
they can actually end. 

1825
01:42:47,600 --> 01:42:50,800
May knows I is I and they can 
like start a new chapter also. 

1826
01:42:51,480 --> 01:42:54,920
So very similar. 
OK, so then let's get into the 

1827
01:42:54,920 --> 01:42:57,360
sequence of events because 
they're very, very similar. 

1828
01:42:57,360 --> 01:43:00,400
So this was clearly pre planned 
by the Pluto team. 

1829
01:43:01,000 --> 01:43:06,040
So in the wedding scene, we have
May, who then leans in to smell 

1830
01:43:06,040 --> 01:43:07,280
a candle. 
OK. 

1831
01:43:07,640 --> 01:43:10,800
And then if you go to the first 
meeting, I leans in to smell the

1832
01:43:10,800 --> 01:43:12,960
candle. 
And the framing of them as 

1833
01:43:12,960 --> 01:43:15,040
they're doing this is exactly 
the same. 

1834
01:43:15,040 --> 01:43:18,040
OK, because the actors on the 
left side of the frame candle is

1835
01:43:18,040 --> 01:43:20,480
on the right side of the frame 
exactly the same. 

1836
01:43:21,680 --> 01:43:25,160
Then when they go to smell in 
the candle, we then transition 

1837
01:43:25,160 --> 01:43:28,280
to a tight shot of noses and 
lips. 

1838
01:43:28,360 --> 01:43:32,440
OK, Key the little bit of 
difference here is when it's I 

1839
01:43:32,440 --> 01:43:35,800
UN in the first episode, it's 
mostly like it's much much of A 

1840
01:43:35,800 --> 01:43:38,760
closer shot where you just have 
like her nostrils and her lips 

1841
01:43:38,760 --> 01:43:42,480
are in of the frame. 
But then if you cut to May, you 

1842
01:43:42,480 --> 01:43:45,080
get more of her face. 
But it's a similar thing. 

1843
01:43:45,080 --> 01:43:49,000
It's a very close up shot when 
they're inhaling the scent from 

1844
01:43:49,000 --> 01:43:51,320
the candle, because remember, 
May has scented candles. 

1845
01:43:52,040 --> 01:43:55,920
And I think that the point of 
doing that is to show that each 

1846
01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:59,760
character was very fixated on 
the scent from the candle and 

1847
01:43:59,760 --> 01:44:02,040
like the rest of the world faded
away. 

1848
01:44:02,040 --> 01:44:04,240
Hence, like the sensory music 
that's going on in the 

1849
01:44:04,240 --> 01:44:08,360
background, like that person is 
just fixated on how the candle 

1850
01:44:08,360 --> 01:44:11,440
smells, how it makes them feel, 
OK, and they close their eyes. 

1851
01:44:11,440 --> 01:44:15,200
OK. 
So then when we transition out 

1852
01:44:15,200 --> 01:44:21,080
of that tight shot, we then get 
a little bit of a wider ish shot

1853
01:44:21,560 --> 01:44:25,960
where that the person inhaling 
the candle scent is like in the 

1854
01:44:25,960 --> 01:44:29,280
middle of the frame and their 
eyes are closed, OK? 

1855
01:44:29,280 --> 01:44:31,920
And while they're doing that, 
somebody approaches from the 

1856
01:44:31,920 --> 01:44:35,120
background. 
OK. 

1857
01:44:35,640 --> 01:44:38,680
And then in both scenes, as the 
other person approaches from the

1858
01:44:38,680 --> 01:44:43,120
background, whoever that person 
is says their name. 

1859
01:44:44,400 --> 01:44:48,440
And that's when the person 
smelling the candle opens their 

1860
01:44:48,440 --> 01:44:50,440
eyes. 
And there's this clashing noise 

1861
01:44:50,440 --> 01:44:55,720
that happens in both instances. 
Now, one of the key differences 

1862
01:44:55,720 --> 01:45:00,360
is in the wedding, AI says May, 
when she approaches May, who's 

1863
01:45:00,360 --> 01:45:02,640
smelling the candle? 
But in the first meeting, May 

1864
01:45:02,640 --> 01:45:08,120
says, oh, so in the first 
meeting, when AI opens her eyes,

1865
01:45:08,120 --> 01:45:11,560
it almost reads like she's 
getting into character as umm, 

1866
01:45:12,440 --> 01:45:15,880
and like she's leaving reality 
and entering this fantasy where 

1867
01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:18,960
she is cosplaying her twin and 
about to break up with the side 

1868
01:45:18,960 --> 01:45:20,160
piece because that's why she's 
here. 

1869
01:45:20,520 --> 01:45:25,080
Whereas when Mae opens her eyes,
it's almost like she's exiting 

1870
01:45:25,080 --> 01:45:29,160
the fantasy of her mind where 
she was fixated on the scent of 

1871
01:45:29,160 --> 01:45:32,120
the candle, and now she's going 
back into the reality of her 

1872
01:45:32,120 --> 01:45:34,040
life, which is marrying her true
love. 

1873
01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:40,280
And then in both instances, the 
instrumental from your story 

1874
01:45:40,280 --> 01:45:44,000
starts playing, and then the 
person that was smelling the 

1875
01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:47,920
candle then turns 180° to spot 
the person that says their name.

1876
01:45:48,360 --> 01:45:49,880
But there's a key difference 
here, too. 

1877
01:45:49,880 --> 01:45:54,040
When Mae does it, she spins 180°
to the left. 

1878
01:45:54,920 --> 01:45:57,000
And then when I does it, she 
spins to the right. 

1879
01:46:00,160 --> 01:46:02,240
And that's where the comparison 
ends. 

1880
01:46:02,760 --> 01:46:07,240
OK so in the first meeting I 
then spots Mae on the staircase 

1881
01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:09,640
and we get the glorious sequence
where she descends. 

1882
01:46:09,720 --> 01:46:14,840
They orbit then collide. 
In this scene Mae is elevated 

1883
01:46:14,840 --> 01:46:17,760
height wise compared to I 
because there was a power 

1884
01:46:17,760 --> 01:46:19,800
imbalance going on between the 
two of them. 

1885
01:46:19,800 --> 01:46:22,440
They were not on the same page 
cause deception. 

1886
01:46:22,920 --> 01:46:25,440
Whereas when we get to the 
wedding, when Mae turns the look

1887
01:46:25,440 --> 01:46:29,880
at I, I is on the same level 
with May and they are now each 

1888
01:46:29,880 --> 01:46:32,480
other's equals. 
They are fully themselves and 

1889
01:46:32,480 --> 01:46:35,840
they're about to become equal 
partners in the marriage. 

1890
01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:40,560
Beautiful. 
So great job, Pluto. 

1891
01:46:40,560 --> 01:46:44,440
They did an amazing job of 
setting up these two scenes, 

1892
01:46:44,440 --> 01:46:48,720
choreographing them, shooting 
them to really, really harp on 

1893
01:46:48,760 --> 01:46:53,000
the like bookend of their 
journey with this amazing 

1894
01:46:53,000 --> 01:46:55,480
sequence. 
So thank you everybody involved 

1895
01:46:55,480 --> 01:46:56,720
with us. 
I really loved it. 

1896
01:46:56,720 --> 01:47:01,640
I really was well done. 
So was your description. 

1897
01:47:01,640 --> 01:47:07,800
I'm just saying. 
All right, so with that said, 

1898
01:47:08,640 --> 01:47:15,880
let's continue with the scene. 
So May tells I that her bride is

1899
01:47:15,880 --> 01:47:20,840
beautiful and I disagrees, 
saying that no, her bride is the

1900
01:47:20,840 --> 01:47:24,880
most beautiful and they both 
smile and May is a little 

1901
01:47:24,880 --> 01:47:28,200
bashful from calling from I 
calling her beautiful. 

1902
01:47:28,960 --> 01:47:31,280
They're cute, they're being 
cute. 

1903
01:47:31,280 --> 01:47:36,160
They're they're being very cute 
finally, and May walks towards 

1904
01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:40,840
eye and eye reaches for her hand
and like this setting is very 

1905
01:47:40,840 --> 01:47:44,760
fairy tale esque and like a 
perfect representation of them. 

1906
01:47:45,120 --> 01:47:48,080
Like you got the fairy like the 
little lights hanging. 

1907
01:47:48,080 --> 01:47:52,960
There's like this free branch 
thing, just greenery. 

1908
01:47:52,960 --> 01:47:55,120
It's really cute. 
It's just, it's beautiful. 

1909
01:47:55,360 --> 01:47:57,560
And it. 
Just kind of reminds me of like 

1910
01:47:57,560 --> 01:48:01,640
their fairy tale sequins when 
they were like in the forest 

1911
01:48:01,760 --> 01:48:03,840
area. 
Yeah, no, I was going to say 

1912
01:48:03,840 --> 01:48:05,800
this a little bit later when we 
get a different wide shot, but I

1913
01:48:05,800 --> 01:48:10,040
just yeah, I agree. 
This scene is so, so beautiful 

1914
01:48:10,280 --> 01:48:14,200
because to your point, you have 
the the hanging lights in and 

1915
01:48:14,200 --> 01:48:19,000
then also you have candles in 
the foreground and like, it's so

1916
01:48:19,000 --> 01:48:23,800
romantic the way this was done. 
And I also wanted to talk very 

1917
01:48:23,800 --> 01:48:28,040
quickly about their wardrobe 
because like their dresses are 

1918
01:48:28,040 --> 01:48:30,320
really perfect for the 
characters. 

1919
01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:34,560
Like I especially on I because I
doesn't wear dresses normally. 

1920
01:48:34,840 --> 01:48:38,960
So I really think they captured 
a good style of wedding dress 

1921
01:48:38,960 --> 01:48:42,160
that fits I in the character and
the piece that I love the most 

1922
01:48:42,160 --> 01:48:46,360
is that little like swooping 
thin scarf Cape thing that I has

1923
01:48:46,360 --> 01:48:48,440
going on. 
I think it fits her style and 

1924
01:48:48,440 --> 01:48:52,360
her personality extremely well. 
So again, kudos to wardrobe. 

1925
01:48:52,360 --> 01:48:56,600
I think the dresses fit the 
personalities of the characters 

1926
01:48:56,760 --> 01:49:00,760
really, really well, Especially 
I who doesn't wear dresses like 

1927
01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:04,680
I think she had to wear a dress.
This one it's it's has her 

1928
01:49:04,680 --> 01:49:06,520
personality in it. 
So it was great. 

1929
01:49:06,800 --> 01:49:08,920
Like it's, it's like they did a 
great job setting up this 

1930
01:49:08,920 --> 01:49:13,280
wedding sequence that feels real
for these characters. 

1931
01:49:14,200 --> 01:49:17,560
And it's hell of romantic. 
It really is. 

1932
01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:24,800
Speaking of romantic, Mae tells 
AI that she has such a sweet 

1933
01:49:24,800 --> 01:49:27,880
tongue. 
And like, that's what happens 

1934
01:49:27,880 --> 01:49:31,520
when you marry a writer. 
First of all, like and like but 

1935
01:49:31,520 --> 01:49:33,520
I love eyes response though. 
Because. 

1936
01:49:34,000 --> 01:49:37,880
It's such a cheeky thing for her
to say and she tells me, of 

1937
01:49:37,920 --> 01:49:44,280
course you've tasted it before. 
Oh my God, which like, I don't 

1938
01:49:44,280 --> 01:49:47,280
know if this is a translation 
thing to be like, oh, you've 

1939
01:49:47,480 --> 01:49:51,600
heard me sweet talking before, 
but the literal translation of 

1940
01:49:51,600 --> 01:49:55,040
it in English just sounds like a
sex joke and it makes it really 

1941
01:49:55,040 --> 01:49:58,840
funny if that is the intention 
for I to make a sex joke at 

1942
01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:02,040
their wedding, which is really 
fucking funny actually. 

1943
01:50:02,440 --> 01:50:06,040
I love it. 
It's so funny. 

1944
01:50:06,040 --> 01:50:10,160
All right so May chuckles and 
tells I that she is so full of 

1945
01:50:10,160 --> 01:50:14,160
herself and calls her Miss 
Famous Writer and at parallels 

1946
01:50:14,160 --> 01:50:16,640
when she says that to her after 
they reunite. 

1947
01:50:18,080 --> 01:50:21,960
And but like I tells Mae that 
she isn't a writer right now and

1948
01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:26,440
is just her eye. 
And I love that she does this 

1949
01:50:26,440 --> 01:50:30,600
because she is leaving that 
persona that everyone else knows

1950
01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:34,160
and truly being the person that 
May fell in love with right now.

1951
01:50:34,560 --> 01:50:38,400
Yes, I agree with that. 
And also if you were to compare 

1952
01:50:38,400 --> 01:50:41,240
it to episode 1, 'cause there's 
still a few more parallels to 

1953
01:50:41,240 --> 01:50:43,520
that first meeting scene in 
episode 1. 

1954
01:50:44,520 --> 01:50:50,800
In that scene, I was cosplaying.
She didn't come there as I own, 

1955
01:50:50,800 --> 01:50:53,080
but I showed up to the wedding 
as herself. 

1956
01:50:53,080 --> 01:50:56,400
So I appreciate that. 
Like I is also conscious in this

1957
01:50:56,400 --> 01:51:01,960
moment that it's this moment is 
for them, for I and Mei without 

1958
01:51:01,960 --> 01:51:06,000
any outside influences. 
So there's also that read to it.

1959
01:51:07,240 --> 01:51:09,720
That's true. 
Good point. 

1960
01:51:10,680 --> 01:51:14,480
So I then tells Mae that she 
finished her novel You're My 

1961
01:51:14,480 --> 01:51:19,880
Caron. 
And Mae asked her what it means.

1962
01:51:20,600 --> 01:51:24,120
And this makes I smile and look 
at their hands holding each 

1963
01:51:24,120 --> 01:51:30,040
other. 
And I tells Mae that Pluto 

1964
01:51:30,400 --> 01:51:35,240
always has Caron by its side. 
And it's the moon that stays 

1965
01:51:35,240 --> 01:51:39,480
with Pluto forever, regardless 
of whether Pluto is in the solar

1966
01:51:39,480 --> 01:51:42,400
system or not. 
Oh my gosh. 

1967
01:51:42,440 --> 01:51:48,360
OK, the line whether Pluto is in
the solar system or not gets me 

1968
01:51:48,920 --> 01:51:53,600
because that means I knows that 
may will always be by her side 

1969
01:51:53,600 --> 01:51:56,840
whether she is like seen by 
other people or not. 

1970
01:51:57,680 --> 01:52:03,880
Because like she started and 
felt like an outsider looking 

1971
01:52:03,880 --> 01:52:06,480
into like the relationships 
going on around her and like 

1972
01:52:06,480 --> 01:52:09,360
situations. 
She felt like she was never good

1973
01:52:09,360 --> 01:52:11,640
enough. 
And like now even when she may 

1974
01:52:11,640 --> 01:52:14,520
start feeling like that, she 
knows she will always have may 

1975
01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:17,720
by her side, which will help her
get through anything. 

1976
01:52:19,760 --> 01:52:23,960
And I continues to say that it 
means that we don't have to be 

1977
01:52:23,960 --> 01:52:27,360
special to everyone. 
We just need to find our own 

1978
01:52:27,360 --> 01:52:32,840
Caron while and like while 
saying this, I caresses Mae's 

1979
01:52:32,840 --> 01:52:36,320
hair to reinforce the fact that 
she has found her Karen. 

1980
01:52:36,920 --> 01:52:41,720
Yes, all right, because I is 
Pluto in a scenario. 

1981
01:52:42,400 --> 01:52:47,520
All right, so some more Karen. 
I I'm not so it can be 

1982
01:52:47,520 --> 01:52:53,040
pronounced Karen or Sharon, 
Sharon, Sharon, but it's more 

1983
01:52:53,040 --> 01:52:57,680
common to know Karen and that's 
how they pronounce it in this 

1984
01:52:57,680 --> 01:52:59,400
show. 
Here's some more. 

1985
01:52:59,400 --> 01:53:01,600
Knowledge about that that no one
asked for. 

1986
01:53:02,480 --> 01:53:07,440
So Karen is a satellite of 
Pluto, can be called a moon and 

1987
01:53:07,440 --> 01:53:11,520
is locked in its orbit. 
It's the largest moon of planet 

1988
01:53:11,520 --> 01:53:15,800
and it was discovered in 1978 by
James West Christie and Robert S

1989
01:53:15,800 --> 01:53:18,280
Harrington of the United States 
Naval Observatory. 

1990
01:53:18,280 --> 01:53:22,080
It is a very large relative to 
Pluto and it's roughly half its 

1991
01:53:22,080 --> 01:53:26,800
diameter, causing them to act as
a double dwarf planet system. 

1992
01:53:26,800 --> 01:53:31,720
So like what I said, they're 
always locked together, they're 

1993
01:53:31,720 --> 01:53:36,080
always in orbit, they're always 
facing each other, so they're 

1994
01:53:36,120 --> 01:53:41,880
always on the same page. 
So that's literally is what's 

1995
01:53:41,880 --> 01:53:45,280
going on right now. 
They are getting married and 

1996
01:53:45,280 --> 01:53:49,440
they are the Karen and Pluto are
married in real life. 

1997
01:53:51,520 --> 01:53:54,200
Moons be like that. 
Moons be like that. 

1998
01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:58,200
All right. 
Are you talking about like the 

1999
01:53:58,200 --> 01:54:02,520
names though, like Pluto and 
Karen? 

2000
01:54:03,880 --> 01:54:10,320
So they're technically they're 
like, they're like Greek slash 

2001
01:54:10,320 --> 01:54:13,160
Roman mythology. 
Yeah, I have that little later. 

2002
01:54:13,160 --> 01:54:16,920
Yeah, not like the. 
Yeah. 

2003
01:54:17,560 --> 01:54:19,240
And like who they were in the 
mythology. 

2004
01:54:19,400 --> 01:54:20,880
Yeah, a little bit. 
In a little bit. 

2005
01:54:20,920 --> 01:54:21,480
So, Yeah. 
Good. 

2006
01:54:21,480 --> 01:54:25,280
All right, so then I and May are
basically just a puddle of 

2007
01:54:25,280 --> 01:54:28,400
smiling, loving messes. 
I mean like, well, not messes, 

2008
01:54:28,400 --> 01:54:30,240
but like it's. 
Tooth rottingly sweet. 

2009
01:54:31,600 --> 01:54:32,960
And their wedding, as they 
should be. 

2010
01:54:33,680 --> 01:54:34,880
Yeah, this, this shot right 
here. 

2011
01:54:34,880 --> 01:54:36,960
This is the romantic one with 
the the candles. 

2012
01:54:37,240 --> 01:54:41,840
Yeah, that's beautiful. 
All right, so. 

2013
01:54:42,160 --> 01:54:48,320
I puts her hand on May's neck 
and goes in to kiss her. 

2014
01:54:49,720 --> 01:54:51,960
OK, so I have to talk about this
because this is the last 

2015
01:54:51,960 --> 01:54:54,280
comparison to the first episode 
in their first meeting. 

2016
01:54:54,280 --> 01:54:58,800
So at the wedding, to your to 
your point, I initiates the kiss

2017
01:54:58,840 --> 01:55:03,000
hand on the back of May's neck. 
And after they're done kissing 

2018
01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:09,080
here, it then ends with forehead
touching, OK, and more kissing 

2019
01:55:09,360 --> 01:55:14,000
where if you go to the first 
kiss, OK, May is the one that 

2020
01:55:14,000 --> 01:55:18,920
initiates the kiss, but this 
kiss starts with forehead 

2021
01:55:18,920 --> 01:55:24,040
dutching. 
Then we get to a kiss and it's 

2022
01:55:24,040 --> 01:55:27,440
Mae is the one leading the 
interaction with her hand on the

2023
01:55:27,440 --> 01:55:31,320
back of AI's head. 
So again, it's like this reverse

2024
01:55:31,360 --> 01:55:35,360
parallel situation that's 
happening between the two 

2025
01:55:35,360 --> 01:55:38,520
meetings, which I really love. 
And then like this kiss gets 

2026
01:55:38,560 --> 01:55:42,640
really thirsty but but by both 
parties, whereas in the first 

2027
01:55:42,640 --> 01:55:44,320
one we got the gay thoughts 
from. 

2028
01:55:46,440 --> 01:55:50,480
But like, also in the wedding, I
starts with her gay poetic 

2029
01:55:50,480 --> 01:55:52,200
thoughts. 
Because some things don't change

2030
01:55:52,800 --> 01:55:53,640
and I love. 
That. 

2031
01:55:54,360 --> 01:55:56,080
She's got a journal about that 
later. 

2032
01:55:56,080 --> 01:56:01,600
We all know it. 
Yes, I like during this kiss we 

2033
01:56:01,600 --> 01:56:06,880
get more voice over and the 
voice over says AS2. 

2034
01:56:06,880 --> 01:56:11,760
Galaxies intertwined. 
I'd be Karen right by your side.

2035
01:56:12,240 --> 01:56:16,200
I stare across water rippling at
your door, whispering through 

2036
01:56:16,200 --> 01:56:20,680
vast space of forevermore. 
First of all, Writer Eye came 

2037
01:56:20,680 --> 01:56:23,560
out. 
I feel like that was probably a 

2038
01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:26,920
line from the latest novel. 
Yeah, because I was way too 

2039
01:56:26,920 --> 01:56:32,720
polished and like the way that 
she says all this makes me think

2040
01:56:32,720 --> 01:56:37,560
of the other representation of 
Karen, which is a psychopomp God

2041
01:56:37,680 --> 01:56:42,120
in Greek mythology who is the 
fairy man of the Greek 

2042
01:56:42,120 --> 01:56:44,920
underworld. 
He carries the souls of those 

2043
01:56:44,920 --> 01:56:47,400
who have been given funeral 
rites across the rivers. 

2044
01:56:47,600 --> 01:56:52,520
A Koran, Aish Karen. 
It's usually River Styx and 

2045
01:56:52,520 --> 01:56:56,640
Styx, which separate the worlds 
of the living and the dead. 

2046
01:56:57,200 --> 01:57:00,240
Styx is also one of Pluto's 
moons names. 

2047
01:57:00,560 --> 01:57:05,760
It was named after these, 
obviously, because who's Pluto? 

2048
01:57:08,200 --> 01:57:08,920
Yeah. 
So. 

2049
01:57:08,920 --> 01:57:12,280
Something else that I found that
really cool while digging into 

2050
01:57:12,280 --> 01:57:17,240
this is that in Greek mythology,
Pluto is the ruler of the 

2051
01:57:17,240 --> 01:57:19,760
underworld. 
It's Yeah, it's actually, I 

2052
01:57:19,880 --> 01:57:22,040
realized that after Haiti, it's 
the same. 

2053
01:57:22,040 --> 01:57:24,800
It's basically the Romans stole 
the mythology from the Greeks 

2054
01:57:24,880 --> 01:57:27,520
and yeah, put a twist on it. 
But in Greek mythology, it's. 

2055
01:57:27,560 --> 01:57:30,760
Hades is the God of the 
underworld in Greek myth. 

2056
01:57:30,760 --> 01:57:33,680
In Roman mythology, Hades is 
renamed Pluto. 

2057
01:57:33,680 --> 01:57:37,680
Yes, but Chiron stays the same. 
Wikipedia was wrong. 

2058
01:57:37,680 --> 01:57:39,880
I had to. 
Look into it more than just 

2059
01:57:39,880 --> 01:57:43,480
going to Wikipedia for Yeah, but
the Chiron, the the Ferryman is 

2060
01:57:43,480 --> 01:57:47,320
the same, weirdly, yeah and 
Greek and Roman, they didn't 

2061
01:57:47,320 --> 01:57:50,560
care enough to rebrand him. 
River Styx also stays the same. 

2062
01:57:50,560 --> 01:57:54,520
So like, yeah, they they renamed
the gods, but apparently Pluto 

2063
01:57:54,520 --> 01:57:58,560
represents like a more positive 
concept of the God who presides 

2064
01:57:58,560 --> 01:58:02,760
over the afterlife because like 
Pluto is about like the wealth 

2065
01:58:02,880 --> 01:58:08,960
of it and like, I don't know, 
like this is my very quick sure 

2066
01:58:08,960 --> 01:58:13,720
yeah, yeah. 
And like, yeah, like they said 

2067
01:58:13,720 --> 01:58:16,320
something about like, Hades 
became like, the word for the 

2068
01:58:16,320 --> 01:58:20,400
underworld itself. 
Yes, because human beings fear 

2069
01:58:20,400 --> 01:58:27,080
death is what it is. 
And then, yes, over time because

2070
01:58:27,080 --> 01:58:31,480
Greek Roman mythology eventually
gets taken over and colonized by

2071
01:58:31,480 --> 01:58:35,680
Christianity. 
And then that uses the concept 

2072
01:58:35,680 --> 01:58:39,240
of dying to scare people into 
following the religion. 

2073
01:58:39,520 --> 01:58:43,800
But really, at its core, Hades, 
Pluto plays an important role. 

2074
01:58:43,800 --> 01:58:46,720
Like death is a part of the 
circle of life. 

2075
01:58:46,720 --> 01:58:49,320
It's just we're conscious of it 
and afraid of it as human 

2076
01:58:49,320 --> 01:58:51,800
beings. 
But like, it is a it is. 

2077
01:58:52,920 --> 01:58:56,760
It is part of nature. 
And so like Hades is not and 

2078
01:58:56,760 --> 01:59:02,640
Pluto is not evil, it Hades and 
Pluto as figures of mythology 

2079
01:59:02,760 --> 01:59:07,320
play an important role in 
cycling of the death cycles, 

2080
01:59:07,320 --> 01:59:10,840
which is part of life. 
So like they're not evil gods, 

2081
01:59:10,840 --> 01:59:14,320
they're just this God is his 
dominion is the underworld. 

2082
01:59:14,840 --> 01:59:21,760
Fun fact though, if you want a 
amazing Greek retelling of Hades

2083
01:59:21,760 --> 01:59:26,160
and Persephone myth, which is 
the wife of Hades, there's a 

2084
01:59:26,160 --> 01:59:30,960
sapphic version of that called 
the Dark Wife, which some 

2085
01:59:30,960 --> 01:59:32,840
awesome people on our Discord 
recommended. 

2086
01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:34,960
It's one of my favorite books 
ever. 

2087
01:59:34,960 --> 01:59:39,560
It's just so in my mind, Haiti 
slash Pluto is a really hot 

2088
01:59:39,560 --> 01:59:42,040
woman. 
So if you want that, go read 

2089
01:59:42,040 --> 01:59:43,960
that book. 
It's excellent. 

2090
01:59:43,960 --> 01:59:47,040
It is so, so, so, so, so good. 
But yeah, there the, the myth of

2091
01:59:47,200 --> 01:59:50,000
mythology around in Hades is and
Pluto is really interesting. 

2092
01:59:50,000 --> 01:59:52,640
But yeah, that's. 
So if you notice that the, the 

2093
01:59:52,640 --> 01:59:55,400
planets in our solar system are 
named after the Roman gods. 

2094
01:59:55,400 --> 01:59:58,520
Jupiter is the king of the God. 
Mars is the God of War, like so 

2095
01:59:58,520 --> 02:00:00,640
yeah, it makes sense that 
they're naming satellites and 

2096
02:00:01,080 --> 02:00:03,640
moons after things that have to 
do with the God. 

2097
02:00:03,720 --> 02:00:11,880
Yeah, actually Karen was named 
like so the person with Christie

2098
02:00:11,880 --> 02:00:16,760
has their last name named Karen 
because their wife's name was 

2099
02:00:16,760 --> 02:00:20,120
Charlene. 
So that's why he pronounces it. 

2100
02:00:20,640 --> 02:00:25,160
Sharon leave it to white people,
it's a fuck up everything. 

2101
02:00:25,760 --> 02:00:30,440
So it's like more American, 
well, United States to say 

2102
02:00:30,440 --> 02:00:37,040
Sharon. 
And they actually, I think 

2103
02:00:37,760 --> 02:00:40,560
whoever like names it like they 
suggested. 

2104
02:00:40,760 --> 02:00:44,240
I think Persephone, but yeah, 
because that's the wife of 

2105
02:00:44,240 --> 02:00:48,280
Haiti. 
Yeah, so, but he's like, no. 

2106
02:00:48,280 --> 02:00:51,280
I want to name it after my wife.
I'm going to name it as Karen. 

2107
02:00:51,280 --> 02:00:55,480
So what happened was that 
scientists, while trying to kind

2108
02:00:55,480 --> 02:00:59,000
of low key insert his life into 
this methodology, actually made 

2109
02:00:59,000 --> 02:01:01,320
it gay because he was like no, 
no, no. 

2110
02:01:01,520 --> 02:01:07,400
The everlasting satellite that's
always with Pluto is his 

2111
02:01:07,400 --> 02:01:10,720
ferryman. 
So is he saying that like Pluto 

2112
02:01:10,720 --> 02:01:14,080
and Chiron were lovers? 
Is that what this? 

2113
02:01:14,320 --> 02:01:16,920
Because that's my read now. 
He just made the planets even 

2114
02:01:16,920 --> 02:01:19,720
gayer, which I'm for that 
honestly. 

2115
02:01:19,720 --> 02:01:22,080
Like I'm saying there's a 
sapphic retelling of this. 

2116
02:01:22,080 --> 02:01:25,480
That's my Canon now. 
But like, I'm also here for gay 

2117
02:01:25,480 --> 02:01:26,600
planets. 
Just saying. 

2118
02:01:26,600 --> 02:01:29,080
I'm just saying there's a lot to
love about Pluto. 

2119
02:01:29,080 --> 02:01:30,800
The planet. 
There is. 

2120
02:01:30,800 --> 02:01:34,440
It's in a gay relationship with 
this moon, so I'm here for that.

2121
02:01:35,080 --> 02:01:38,520
Pluto has like Pluto's already 
my favorite planet. 

2122
02:01:39,160 --> 02:01:42,000
Well, maybe Pluto, but I love 
Pluto. 

2123
02:01:42,080 --> 02:01:45,720
Pluto has become even more loved
by me now though. 

2124
02:01:46,080 --> 02:01:49,080
I'm just saying. 
I love Neptune because of Sailor

2125
02:01:49,080 --> 02:01:52,320
Neptune in the Sailor Scouts who
was also gay. 

2126
02:01:55,240 --> 02:01:58,280
I like Saturn and just because I
had to do a whole project on it 

2127
02:01:58,280 --> 02:01:59,720
in school. 
So that's the one I know the. 

2128
02:01:59,720 --> 02:02:01,240
Best. 
There you go. 

2129
02:02:01,360 --> 02:02:03,360
What's your favorite planet? 
Leave it in the gum. 

2130
02:02:04,960 --> 02:02:08,600
And why? 
Yes, I I'm curious very why? 

2131
02:02:10,560 --> 02:02:21,720
OK, so back to this episode. 
We then cut to wedding photo 

2132
02:02:21,720 --> 02:02:28,160
time, where we first see I hold 
out her hand from May and it's a

2133
02:02:28,160 --> 02:02:30,240
great shot to showcase Maze 
ring. 

2134
02:02:30,720 --> 02:02:32,200
Yeah. 
Which makes me think that's why 

2135
02:02:32,200 --> 02:02:34,720
the wedding actually did happen 
'cause they are wearing their 

2136
02:02:34,720 --> 02:02:38,920
wedding rings. 
Yeah, 'cause it's not explicitly

2137
02:02:38,920 --> 02:02:41,080
explained. 
So that was that was where I got

2138
02:02:41,080 --> 02:02:43,120
like that was the wedding, 
'cause they weren't wearing the 

2139
02:02:43,120 --> 02:02:45,160
rings in the last scene. 
Now they're wearing them. 

2140
02:02:45,200 --> 02:02:47,800
So they actually got married 
somewhere in between these two 

2141
02:02:47,800 --> 02:02:48,520
scenes. 
Yeah. 

2142
02:02:48,560 --> 02:02:49,440
I didn't even. 
Yeah. 

2143
02:02:49,680 --> 02:02:53,080
Of course I didn't notice. 
That's why they have that shot, 

2144
02:02:53,080 --> 02:02:55,440
I think, to be like, look, 
they're both wearing wedding 

2145
02:02:55,440 --> 02:02:56,880
rings. 
Yeah. 

2146
02:02:58,560 --> 02:03:00,840
All right. 
So they both look beautifully 

2147
02:03:00,840 --> 02:03:05,000
elegant and like the 
photographer instructs them. 

2148
02:03:05,960 --> 02:03:08,280
Oh, wait, sorry, while we're 
here. 

2149
02:03:08,320 --> 02:03:10,960
So in the wide shot where 
they're taking photos, we see 

2150
02:03:10,960 --> 02:03:13,840
that they're taking photos and 
then Nima and Umar off to the 

2151
02:03:13,840 --> 02:03:15,520
side. 
And my question is, where the 

2152
02:03:15,520 --> 02:03:18,160
hell are Maze parents? 
No, I can bring that up. 

2153
02:03:18,200 --> 02:03:19,040
I. 
Where are they? 

2154
02:03:19,040 --> 02:03:20,400
I know. 
Because you get the wide shot 

2155
02:03:20,400 --> 02:03:22,520
and you don't see anyone else. 
So it could have been because, 

2156
02:03:22,520 --> 02:03:25,320
like, we're going to close it 
close up on May and Umm, and 

2157
02:03:25,320 --> 02:03:28,560
then they we stay in like closer
shots, but you get the very 

2158
02:03:28,560 --> 02:03:31,200
explicit wide chat that says 
nobody else is there. 

2159
02:03:31,240 --> 02:03:32,520
Yeah, I had to bring that up 
then. 

2160
02:03:32,520 --> 02:03:34,720
Yeah. 
Like, if May has reconciled with

2161
02:03:34,720 --> 02:03:37,080
her parents, why aren't they 
also there with. 

2162
02:03:37,080 --> 02:03:38,920
Right. 
You would think the best dad in 

2163
02:03:38,920 --> 02:03:41,560
the world would move mountains 
to be at his only daughter's 

2164
02:03:41,560 --> 02:03:43,000
wedding slash wedding photo. 
Yeah. 

2165
02:03:43,000 --> 02:03:45,000
Like, that would have made it 
feel more connected. 

2166
02:03:45,040 --> 02:03:46,880
Right. 
May and Umm and Mima are here 

2167
02:03:47,000 --> 02:03:51,200
and they're dressed up as if the
wedding just fucking happened, 

2168
02:03:52,320 --> 02:03:54,160
You know what I mean? 
They are dressed for the wedding

2169
02:03:55,240 --> 02:03:56,560
or they're dressed for this 
photo shoot. 

2170
02:03:56,680 --> 02:03:59,600
But like, even if this was just 
a photo shoot, why the fucker 

2171
02:03:59,600 --> 02:04:02,280
May's parents not in it if 
they're all reconciled? 

2172
02:04:02,880 --> 02:04:04,720
Seriously. 
I feel like they wormed in the 

2173
02:04:04,720 --> 02:04:08,880
reconciliation after the fact 
and, like, already shot those 

2174
02:04:09,160 --> 02:04:10,800
because it doesn't make any 
sense. 

2175
02:04:11,600 --> 02:04:13,560
Yeah. 
Again, This is why there's not 

2176
02:04:13,560 --> 02:04:16,760
enough receipts to make the 
redemption arc make any fucking 

2177
02:04:16,760 --> 02:04:19,600
sense for May's dad. 
Because, like, if you wanted me 

2178
02:04:19,600 --> 02:04:23,520
to believe that they would be at
the wedding photo shoot, but 

2179
02:04:23,520 --> 02:04:26,880
they're not. 
Yeah, at least Megan's mom would

2180
02:04:26,880 --> 02:04:27,960
be here. 
You know what it be it doesn't 

2181
02:04:27,960 --> 02:04:29,480
make any sense that none of them
are here. 

2182
02:04:29,800 --> 02:04:31,640
Like none of them. 
No, apparently they don't care 

2183
02:04:31,640 --> 02:04:34,080
enough because this because 
allegedly like this is the 

2184
02:04:34,080 --> 02:04:36,480
family, right? 
This is the family if the photo 

2185
02:04:36,480 --> 02:04:38,880
shoot with the family. 
So you could also argue well 

2186
02:04:38,880 --> 02:04:42,240
like Ploy and Ton aren't here 
but like they're more in the 

2187
02:04:42,240 --> 02:04:43,920
friends. 
They they wouldn't. 

2188
02:04:43,920 --> 02:04:45,840
Be there. 
I mean, Ton's a cousin, but 

2189
02:04:45,840 --> 02:04:49,200
like, this is, if this was 
immediate family, Megan's 

2190
02:04:49,200 --> 02:04:51,240
parents would be here, but 
they're not. 

2191
02:04:52,000 --> 02:04:53,840
I don't believe that fucking 
reconciliation actually 

2192
02:04:53,840 --> 02:04:56,200
happened. 
You try to gaslight me all you 

2193
02:04:56,200 --> 02:04:59,560
want, I don't flavor. 
Anyway, continue. 

2194
02:04:59,600 --> 02:05:01,240
Sorry I had to bring that up. 
It's ridiculous. 

2195
02:05:02,360 --> 02:05:04,720
All right, so Speaking of Umm 
and Mima. 

2196
02:05:04,720 --> 02:05:08,840
Are off to the side fawning over
the happy couple and UMM is 

2197
02:05:08,840 --> 02:05:11,080
taking her own photos of the 
couple with her phone. 

2198
02:05:11,080 --> 02:05:13,960
So cute. 
And like, this just shows how 

2199
02:05:13,960 --> 02:05:16,840
far UMM has come with her 
acceptance of the relationship 

2200
02:05:17,080 --> 02:05:21,360
because she is truly happy for 
her sister and it no longer 

2201
02:05:21,360 --> 02:05:24,680
pains her to see her with 
someone that she once truly 

2202
02:05:24,680 --> 02:05:26,320
loved. 
Yeah, you can see that UMM is 

2203
02:05:26,320 --> 02:05:28,520
way happier to be at the wedding
than I was. 

2204
02:05:32,040 --> 02:05:33,840
Yeah, she actually showed up for
it. 

2205
02:05:34,200 --> 02:05:35,600
Showed up. 
She's smiling, She's 

2206
02:05:35,600 --> 02:05:38,480
participating. 
Like I was just like in sneakers

2207
02:05:38,800 --> 02:05:40,440
fresh from DoorDash. 
She'd be like, I don't even. 

2208
02:05:40,480 --> 02:05:42,800
I came. 
She was like, she came halfway 

2209
02:05:42,800 --> 02:05:44,600
through the wedding, like. 
Yeah. 

2210
02:05:44,600 --> 02:05:49,360
So like, again, who cares? 
And yeah, fully came here to 

2211
02:05:49,360 --> 02:05:51,480
support I and May at the 
wedding. 

2212
02:05:52,200 --> 02:05:52,600
Yeah. 
OK. 

2213
02:05:53,880 --> 02:05:57,480
I. 
So just one way that is. 

2214
02:05:57,960 --> 02:06:01,920
Better than I know, like she's 
supportive. 

2215
02:06:01,960 --> 02:06:04,560
She's truly being a supportive. 
To be fair, they were on the 

2216
02:06:04,640 --> 02:06:08,040
apps, but still, like it's 
another contrast to the first 

2217
02:06:08,040 --> 02:06:10,600
episode is what I'm getting at. 
Not judging anybody. 

2218
02:06:10,600 --> 02:06:13,080
Like they had different 
contacts, but still, it's funny 

2219
02:06:13,520 --> 02:06:17,000
in hindsight. 
OK, so the couple then takes 

2220
02:06:17,000 --> 02:06:20,560
some photos and like they're 
just really cute. 

2221
02:06:20,800 --> 02:06:23,200
They're happy and loving. 
They got their happy ending. 

2222
02:06:23,600 --> 02:06:27,120
Until I. 
Calls for MIMA and UMM to join 

2223
02:06:27,120 --> 02:06:31,720
them I love the way this is 
clearly two people who've 

2224
02:06:31,720 --> 02:06:37,120
modelled before yeah posing for 
photos they know exactly what to

2225
02:06:37,160 --> 02:06:39,520
do position themselves yeah 
they're. 

2226
02:06:39,520 --> 02:06:42,520
Professionals, but UMM and Mima 
seem like a. 

2227
02:06:42,520 --> 02:06:45,560
Little surprised at first, but 
like, they quickly get excited 

2228
02:06:45,560 --> 02:06:48,160
and eager to join them. 
You know, like hustles over 

2229
02:06:48,200 --> 02:06:49,120
there. 
She's like, let's give them 

2230
02:06:49,160 --> 02:06:51,640
photos. 
And like, that's why 'cause 

2231
02:06:51,640 --> 02:06:53,680
like, maybe they didn't know 
that they were going to be in 

2232
02:06:53,680 --> 02:06:56,120
them. 
No, I think they did. 

2233
02:06:56,120 --> 02:06:57,920
They think they're as excited. 
They're like, yeah, it's our 

2234
02:06:57,920 --> 02:07:00,520
turn, 'cause they're, they're 
dressed for it. 

2235
02:07:00,520 --> 02:07:03,920
It's not like they had no idea. 
Yeah. 

2236
02:07:06,080 --> 02:07:11,000
OK, but. 
Mima and Umm join them and Mima 

2237
02:07:11,000 --> 02:07:15,640
tells I that her dress is 
gorgeous, to which I replies 

2238
02:07:15,640 --> 02:07:18,480
that she is gorgeous too and 
it's so. 

2239
02:07:18,480 --> 02:07:21,240
Weird to not. 
Have I say something cheeky to I

2240
02:07:21,240 --> 02:07:22,720
know. 
I like. 

2241
02:07:22,800 --> 02:07:25,040
What, You're just being sincere 
right now? 

2242
02:07:25,040 --> 02:07:25,720
Marriage. 
Really. 

2243
02:07:25,720 --> 02:07:28,920
Who are you? 
It's been 30, 3 minutes, I 

2244
02:07:28,920 --> 02:07:32,200
already a different person. 
And then Owen joins. 

2245
02:07:32,200 --> 02:07:35,080
May's side and. 
It could have been really 

2246
02:07:35,080 --> 02:07:38,720
awkward if they weren't on 
better terms and like, didn't 

2247
02:07:38,720 --> 02:07:41,240
work on their platonic 
relationship off screen, I 

2248
02:07:41,240 --> 02:07:45,200
assume, because, like, they 
don't look super close, but they

2249
02:07:45,200 --> 02:07:47,240
have definitely gotten past 
things. 

2250
02:07:47,240 --> 02:07:48,720
Yeah. 
I mean, it's been three years. 

2251
02:07:48,720 --> 02:07:50,880
So like, yeah, I think you're 
right. 

2252
02:07:50,880 --> 02:07:55,040
It's evidence that they may 
finally make me mom, first of 

2253
02:07:55,040 --> 02:07:59,240
all, yeah, that awkward meeting.
And then, Yeah, I think UMM and 

2254
02:08:00,160 --> 02:08:02,440
May are in a better place with 
each other, which, Yeah, again, 

2255
02:08:02,440 --> 02:08:06,440
to go back to, like the Kasol. 
I May thing there was hope from 

2256
02:08:06,440 --> 02:08:09,680
that comparison that like, May 
and UMM could be friendly with 

2257
02:08:09,680 --> 02:08:11,880
each other at some point. 
And, like, here it is this at 

2258
02:08:11,880 --> 02:08:13,760
some point. 
Yeah. 

2259
02:08:13,840 --> 02:08:16,360
Yeah. 
And like, logistically, she had 

2260
02:08:16,360 --> 02:08:19,360
to do this absolutely every. 
Everybody had to. 

2261
02:08:19,360 --> 02:08:23,680
Yeah, had to be next to May in 
the because of filming. 

2262
02:08:23,760 --> 02:08:26,200
And like you could argue that 
she could be next to Meemaw, but

2263
02:08:26,200 --> 02:08:29,520
for like photo composition 
purposes too, it had to be the 

2264
02:08:29,520 --> 02:08:31,640
focus is I and May. 
They have to be in the middle. 

2265
02:08:31,680 --> 02:08:34,160
Yeah, because why wouldn't 
Meemaw be next to May? 

2266
02:08:34,200 --> 02:08:36,040
Like that makes no sense. 
It makes no sense. 

2267
02:08:36,040 --> 02:08:38,240
So like out of the two of them? 
It has to be. 

2268
02:08:38,960 --> 02:08:40,320
Yeah. 
Well, you know, we wouldn't be 

2269
02:08:40,320 --> 02:08:42,680
in this situation if May's 
parents were in the fucking 

2270
02:08:42,720 --> 02:08:44,440
photo. 
True, they can stand through. 

2271
02:08:44,960 --> 02:08:48,240
But we're here, aren't we? 
Because that reconciliation 

2272
02:08:48,240 --> 02:08:50,840
never happened. 
We were all gas lit, I'm 

2273
02:08:50,880 --> 02:08:54,400
convinced. 
Mm, hmm. 

2274
02:08:55,360 --> 02:08:58,240
All right. 
So we end this series with the 

2275
02:08:58,240 --> 02:09:02,920
four of them taking a beautiful 
photo together and the last shot

2276
02:09:03,280 --> 02:09:08,400
is of I and Maze heads together 
just smiling. 

2277
02:09:08,520 --> 02:09:13,360
They are truly truly happy and 
finally at peace. 

2278
02:09:13,960 --> 02:09:17,400
Yes, I do love before we get to 
them with their little cute 

2279
02:09:17,400 --> 02:09:20,720
forehead touch that I and umm 
look at each other, which is 

2280
02:09:20,720 --> 02:09:23,840
really cute because like again, 
they everybody here has come to 

2281
02:09:23,840 --> 02:09:27,120
a place of healing with each 
other and like finally we're at 

2282
02:09:27,120 --> 02:09:29,080
this new beginning where 
everybody is happy. 

2283
02:09:29,080 --> 02:09:33,200
They are literally one big happy
family and here we go. 

2284
02:09:33,200 --> 02:09:36,680
We got the happy ending for 
everyone, Really. 

2285
02:09:37,320 --> 02:09:40,640
Exactly. 
I mean, who knows what she? 

2286
02:09:40,640 --> 02:09:45,240
Because she wasn't, actually. 
Smiling like how is she doing? 

2287
02:09:45,840 --> 02:09:50,520
Yeah, that was a crime Pluto 
committed, which was everything 

2288
02:09:50,520 --> 02:09:54,480
involved with Officer Hottie was
some fucked up shit and a damn 

2289
02:09:54,480 --> 02:09:57,040
three-way kiss. 
That was also some fucked up 

2290
02:09:57,040 --> 02:09:58,400
shit. 
That was less of a quite Yeah, 

2291
02:09:58,400 --> 02:09:59,600
there were some crimes committed
there too. 

2292
02:09:59,600 --> 02:10:03,120
But yeah, anyway, great. 
And with that, that wraps up 

2293
02:10:03,120 --> 02:10:06,760
Pluto and self with our final 
part of Pluto the series. 

2294
02:10:06,760 --> 02:10:09,440
What got your big gay energy 
award? 

2295
02:10:10,240 --> 02:10:14,840
I have to OK. 
Well, first. 

2296
02:10:15,000 --> 02:10:19,600
Them getting married, but I 
staring at me while she was 

2297
02:10:19,600 --> 02:10:22,080
making noodles. 
Yeah, that was that was pretty. 

2298
02:10:22,080 --> 02:10:25,640
Some pretty thirsty stuff. 
My big gay energy award goes to 

2299
02:10:25,760 --> 02:10:28,800
the way I kisses Mae at the 
wedding. 

2300
02:10:29,040 --> 02:10:31,000
First of all, 'cause it was 
thirsty as fuck. 

2301
02:10:31,040 --> 02:10:34,280
And then her cheeky line about 
Mae tasting her tongue like that

2302
02:10:34,960 --> 02:10:37,160
was girl. 
But also because you brought it 

2303
02:10:37,160 --> 02:10:43,120
up, the way Mae caresses her 
eyes, biceps, Yes. 

2304
02:10:43,120 --> 02:10:48,560
Also very gay. 
Yeah, All right, So what is your

2305
02:10:48,560 --> 02:10:51,240
final Taylor Swift song for 
Pluto the series? 

2306
02:10:51,440 --> 02:10:53,600
Unless I got 2 for. 
This one, OK, go for it. 

2307
02:10:53,600 --> 02:10:55,800
All right? 
The first one is today was a 

2308
02:10:55,800 --> 02:10:58,400
fairy tale because the wedding 
was a fairy tale. 

2309
02:10:58,400 --> 02:11:00,760
It really was. 
And the second one is the fate 

2310
02:11:00,760 --> 02:11:04,800
of Ophelia. 
Interesting because Umm was 

2311
02:11:04,800 --> 02:11:09,120
saved by Islo. 
So some of the lyrics are I 

2312
02:11:09,120 --> 02:11:10,840
heard you calling on the 
megaphone. 

2313
02:11:10,880 --> 02:11:15,040
You want to see me all alone? 
So like this is what umm thought

2314
02:11:15,040 --> 02:11:18,040
like she wanted her to be alone.
Like as legend has it, you are 

2315
02:11:18,040 --> 02:11:21,040
quite the pyro because, you 
know, arson. 

2316
02:11:21,160 --> 02:11:23,880
Yeah. 
You like the match to watch it 

2317
02:11:23,880 --> 02:11:25,280
blow? 
Yeah, that's. 

2318
02:11:25,880 --> 02:11:27,200
I and if you'd never. 
Come for me. 

2319
02:11:27,200 --> 02:11:30,080
I might have drowned in the 
melancholy or the river. 

2320
02:11:30,800 --> 02:11:36,000
Yeah, yes, quite literally. 
I swore my loyalty to me, myself

2321
02:11:36,000 --> 02:11:39,040
and I right before you lit up my
sky. 

2322
02:11:40,360 --> 02:11:43,920
Before you lit my sky up, all 
that time I sat alone in my 

2323
02:11:43,920 --> 02:11:46,040
tower, you were just honing your
powers. 

2324
02:11:46,200 --> 02:11:47,440
Now I can. 
See it all. 

2325
02:11:47,800 --> 02:11:49,920
So like, she was alone this 
whole time. 

2326
02:11:49,920 --> 02:11:52,640
She thought she was. 
She thought I was like, the 

2327
02:11:52,640 --> 02:11:59,040
enemy, basically, but really, I 
was taking care of her by doing 

2328
02:11:59,040 --> 02:12:01,240
all that work and, like, in the 
background. 

2329
02:12:04,360 --> 02:12:06,240
And then this is about the 
river. 

2330
02:12:06,240 --> 02:12:09,280
Late one night, you dug me out 
of my grave and saved my heart 

2331
02:12:09,280 --> 02:12:13,640
from the fate of Ophelia. 
Keep it 100 on the land, the sea

2332
02:12:13,680 --> 02:12:19,080
or the river, the sky. 
And then, like, don't care where

2333
02:12:19,080 --> 02:12:20,680
the hell you've been because now
you're mine. 

2334
02:12:20,680 --> 02:12:23,120
Like, I don't care what 
happened, but you finally chose 

2335
02:12:23,120 --> 02:12:25,800
me. 
So that's. 

2336
02:12:27,080 --> 02:12:30,160
And like, now she's gotten to a 
better place because of it. 

2337
02:12:31,280 --> 02:12:32,560
Yeah. 
That's good. 

2338
02:12:32,600 --> 02:12:34,080
That's good. 
Again, all the songs are about 

2339
02:12:34,120 --> 02:12:34,640
boom so. 
Like. 

2340
02:12:35,200 --> 02:12:38,680
Make that argument for this last
piece of the episode. 

2341
02:12:38,960 --> 02:12:42,800
I think the best Taylor Show 
song for it is Watch it begin 

2342
02:12:42,800 --> 02:12:44,920
again. 
Because on a Wednesday in a 

2343
02:12:44,920 --> 02:12:49,000
cafe, I watched it begin again 
because after all the separation

2344
02:12:49,000 --> 02:12:52,320
all the time, the year gap, the 
three years later, it's like 

2345
02:12:52,320 --> 02:12:55,240
watching I and May fall in love 
with each other all over again. 

2346
02:12:55,400 --> 02:12:57,760
So I think that that 
encapsulates the second-half of 

2347
02:12:57,760 --> 02:13:01,680
the episode really well. 
All right. 

2348
02:13:01,680 --> 02:13:05,280
And now for the final challenge.
Besides guessing how much the 

2349
02:13:05,280 --> 02:13:08,840
notes are, how long, how many 
pages they are and how many 

2350
02:13:08,840 --> 02:13:12,440
people were waiting in line, how
many people signing, what's your

2351
02:13:12,440 --> 02:13:16,440
favorite planet and why? 
I do have another question. 

2352
02:13:17,280 --> 02:13:22,080
OK, so say May's dad is trying 
to make up for all the time he 

2353
02:13:22,080 --> 02:13:26,880
was awful to her, according to 
GMMTV, what would he try to do? 

2354
02:13:27,240 --> 02:13:30,400
Like would he do something that 
fathers do with children and 

2355
02:13:30,400 --> 02:13:32,480
just be like not realize that 
she's a grown up? 

2356
02:13:32,960 --> 02:13:36,640
Would he like write a letter 
apologizing, take her on a daddy

2357
02:13:36,640 --> 02:13:38,960
daughter date? 
What's going on? 

2358
02:13:38,960 --> 02:13:41,920
Like, what is he doing to try 
and make up for her childhood? 

2359
02:13:42,160 --> 02:13:45,080
Yeah, in the in the three-year 
gap, like when they're like 

2360
02:13:45,080 --> 02:13:48,320
three years later, what was he 
doing to win May over? 

2361
02:13:49,040 --> 02:13:50,880
Or did he not because I say 
nothing. 

2362
02:13:51,120 --> 02:13:52,840
That's my vote. 
My vote is nothing. 

2363
02:13:52,840 --> 02:13:54,600
He didn't do jacked it this way.
It wasn't at the wedding. 

2364
02:13:55,560 --> 02:13:58,000
It didn't stick. 
But anyway, you're entitled to 

2365
02:13:58,000 --> 02:13:59,800
your own opinions and like, 
yeah, let us know. 

2366
02:14:00,920 --> 02:14:03,320
All right. 
And with that, that has been our

2367
02:14:03,320 --> 02:14:05,200
scene by scene breakdown of 
Pluto the series. 

2368
02:14:05,200 --> 02:14:07,640
We hope you've enjoyed this deep
dive format. 

2369
02:14:07,640 --> 02:14:09,440
I know I personally enjoy doing 
this. 

2370
02:14:09,440 --> 02:14:13,840
This is how I like to engage 
with media and really gain more 

2371
02:14:13,840 --> 02:14:17,680
appreciation for the story 
itself, the people that put it 

2372
02:14:17,680 --> 02:14:21,840
all together, you know, the 
actors, the crew, producers, 

2373
02:14:21,840 --> 02:14:25,320
everybody that took this novel, 
even Ciao, who like, we're here 

2374
02:14:25,320 --> 02:14:28,000
because of her. 
So I hope you did too. 

2375
02:14:28,000 --> 02:14:30,000
I hope you learned something. 
Hope it gives you a new 

2376
02:14:30,000 --> 02:14:31,760
appreciation for the little 
things. 

2377
02:14:31,760 --> 02:14:34,240
Yeah, new appreciation. 
And thank you to everybody that 

2378
02:14:34,240 --> 02:14:38,320
gave us your takes on stuff. 
We do appreciate that you were 

2379
02:14:38,320 --> 02:14:41,600
adding to the conversation of 
Pluto and why it's it's such a 

2380
02:14:41,600 --> 02:14:44,720
good series and it really does 
stand the test of time in terms 

2381
02:14:44,720 --> 02:14:47,480
of like being a very quality 
television show because there's 

2382
02:14:47,480 --> 02:14:52,280
a lot to dive into that's, you 
know, worth talking about and 

2383
02:14:52,280 --> 02:14:54,320
worth analyzing. 
And particularly the way this 

2384
02:14:54,320 --> 02:14:56,960
was shot it, it just, there's so
many elements of this that made 

2385
02:14:56,960 --> 02:14:58,880
this a very quality television 
show. 

2386
02:14:59,080 --> 02:15:01,680
Like there was some ridiculous 
shit going on, but like there's 

2387
02:15:01,680 --> 02:15:03,200
ridiculous shit going on in real
life too. 

2388
02:15:03,200 --> 02:15:06,400
So like, you know, and we take 
it when you put it all together,

2389
02:15:06,400 --> 02:15:08,840
Pluto was a very fun show. 
So thank you to our Patreon 

2390
02:15:08,840 --> 02:15:12,720
members that voted for this as 
our next as our deep dive. 

2391
02:15:12,720 --> 02:15:15,080
We're sorry you're not voting on
the next one 'cause we picked 

2392
02:15:15,080 --> 02:15:16,720
it. 
Yeah, I made that. 

2393
02:15:16,720 --> 02:15:19,480
You'll get because Claire Bell's
a master class. 

2394
02:15:19,480 --> 02:15:22,480
You have to talk about that one.
You have to like I can't wait to

2395
02:15:22,480 --> 02:15:25,360
see what things we discover by 
doing this deep dive. 

2396
02:15:25,520 --> 02:15:28,800
I'm really excited about my 
media and like what they're 

2397
02:15:28,800 --> 02:15:33,200
gonna do next because this is 
just an early plug for 

2398
02:15:33,200 --> 02:15:35,960
Clarabelle to get you interested
if you're not already. 

2399
02:15:35,960 --> 02:15:38,400
But like they. 
We've watched a. 

2400
02:15:38,400 --> 02:15:41,080
Few of their like behind the 
scenes documentary for 

2401
02:15:41,080 --> 02:15:46,640
Clarabelle and like it's very 
clear how much the creators they

2402
02:15:46,640 --> 02:15:48,640
cared. 
Not that people don't care, but 

2403
02:15:48,640 --> 02:15:53,080
like they looked at it from like
this very empathetic, holistic 

2404
02:15:53,080 --> 02:15:56,680
perspective and they were very 
artistic about literally every 

2405
02:15:56,680 --> 02:15:59,360
element of the show. 
And that's what makes it unique 

2406
02:15:59,360 --> 02:16:01,480
in our opinion. 
Like every element was very 

2407
02:16:01,480 --> 02:16:04,520
artistic and that doesn't always
happen in a television show. 

2408
02:16:04,520 --> 02:16:07,960
In film, sure, because like you 
usually get more money and time 

2409
02:16:07,960 --> 02:16:11,360
dedicated to that, but like, 
wow, there were so many things 

2410
02:16:11,360 --> 02:16:13,960
on the show that were very 
unique to to TV. 

2411
02:16:13,960 --> 02:16:17,080
And so we're very excited to to 
get into it more. 

2412
02:16:17,240 --> 02:16:19,800
So hopefully you'll join us. 
If you plan on joining us, let 

2413
02:16:19,800 --> 02:16:23,080
us know encouragement. 
But I will warn you that it's 

2414
02:16:23,080 --> 02:16:26,000
gonna be like maybe a couple of 
months before that happens just 

2415
02:16:26,000 --> 02:16:29,560
because our filming schedule is 
crazy. 

2416
02:16:29,640 --> 02:16:34,320
We have like vacations planned 
because life and so we're not 

2417
02:16:34,320 --> 02:16:36,840
going to be able to start 
filming this for a little bit. 

2418
02:16:36,840 --> 02:16:40,879
So I hope you enjoy the stuff we
have coming out in the meantime.
