host Enrique Kuto here with my good
buddy and co host doubled David. Yeah,

00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:22.680
it must have been a bet Denoyer
greetings, of course, referring to

10
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:26.719
your shorn head, my shorn head. Yes, it was a combination of

11
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:30.719
I hadn't gotten a haircut and you
lost a match against another wrestler against the

12
00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.400
wrestler with long hair, had not
gotten a haircut since my breakup. Normally

13
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:37.959
Ali was the one who cut my
hair for one Wow, baby needs his

14
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:40.200
bottle. No, it wasn't so
much of that as much as I woke

15
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:42.280
up this past Sunday and I was
just like, ah, let's just go

16
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:46.040
ahead and take it all off and
get ready for summer. Please. No,

17
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:51.799
David, Well, you're subjecting the
folks who watch us on the Patreon

18
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:57.760
and YouTube to the sheen, the
shine, the sad reality have everything.

19
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:02.879
That's yeah, that's happening here today. But we are talking again this week

20
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:09.199
about another film that's relatively recent in
this decade. Yes, and take a

21
00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:15.319
break from the nineties because we just
well we I mean obviously, due to

22
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:21.319
our age and stuff, we lean
into the nineties for nostalgia hit and we

23
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.639
did kind of notice when we look
back, we were like, oh,

24
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:29.319
we did like six nineties movies in
a row. So we decided to try

25
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:35.039
and spread our wings and fly,
much like one of the tableaus in our

26
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:42.840
film, Tonight twenty twenty two's the
Menu, And I'm looking forward to talking

27
00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:46.319
about this because this film, I
feel like, before it even came out,

28
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:51.159
it was a very divisive film.
I would agree with that. I

29
00:02:51.199 --> 00:02:53.759
feel like because we were just getting
back to the theaters around this time,

30
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:58.280
because twenty twenty two is when it
came out. I think the theaters opened

31
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:01.879
back up like twenty twenty one.
No, they open high opened up at

32
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:06.000
the end of October of twenty were
totally right. But yeah, I think

33
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:08.039
this was one that I remember a
lot of people were kind of going back

34
00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:10.199
to the theater for because there was
a lot of buzz about it. I

35
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:14.560
mean, it's also it is it
is labeled as a horror film. Whether

36
00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:17.479
it is one hundred percent is debatable. I mean, it's definitely in thriller

37
00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:22.280
territory. The reason I don't know
about calling it a horror film is because

38
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:27.280
it's not really It's got these little
horrific moments. So I feel like,

39
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:30.319
but then again, if you had
to market it, horror movie would probably

40
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:32.439
be the way to horror thriller.
Yeah, exactly. And I feel like

41
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:37.080
the one thing that we have to
say before we even start this movie is

42
00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:39.560
like a like a nice, you
know, spread out dinner course. This

43
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:44.360
film has layers to it, and
this could also kind of double as an

44
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:47.000
episode of cutting deep into horror because
and that's a fair point, because Dave,

45
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:51.039
you did call me, yes when
you wanted to watch this film you

46
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:53.639
call for the show. You'd called
me at like three in the morning and

47
00:03:53.639 --> 00:04:00.400
you were crying and you were saying, like I just wanted to elevated horror.

48
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.919
And I was like, Dave,
if you really want to talk about

49
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:11.759
elevated horror, we'll talk about elevated
horror. It's not I'll say that.

50
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.719
I mean, thank goodness, because
you're on the warpath against not on the

51
00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:20.360
warpath? Are we gonna talk about
this now? This morning? Before we

52
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:25.399
recorded the show this morning, some
news broke, which may or may not

53
00:04:25.480 --> 00:04:29.079
be true. You didn't see it. What the new update? It's not

54
00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:32.959
canceled, they're retooling it. That
new update is just as as a vague.

55
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:38.519
Yeah, it's nobody got a twenty
four to comment. Nobody got anybody

56
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:42.600
to comment properly. So there's a
rumor going around, a big rumor that

57
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:46.360
A twenty four and Peacock where they
were supposed to make a Camp Crystal Lake

58
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:50.639
series, Jason Vorhey series, and
they now it appears, have pulled the

59
00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:55.279
plug on it. That's according to
some insiders who were unnamed, and then

60
00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:59.560
other unnamed insiders said no, no, they're retooling. But it wouldn't shock

61
00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:03.319
me if it cut, because all
streaming services are cutting. They're cutting a

62
00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:06.759
lot out of their budgets. Yeah, to try and I don't know make

63
00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:12.160
a profit, make a profit.
And I mean I just saw a list

64
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:15.920
of CEOs of film studios was released
and of the ones that took pay cuts

65
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:19.879
were Netflix and one other one that
I was very surprised by it took took

66
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:25.240
massive pay cuts. Oh wow.
So but my point is, Dave was

67
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:28.600
just like good. I didn't say, good, Okay, do you want

68
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:30.839
me to pull up the act show? I don't. I can tell you

69
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:33.519
what I go ahead. Literally,
our good friend Rob, who is a

70
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:36.680
fan of the show, posted the
article and I said, I think I

71
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:40.519
said, Matt. Basically, it
was like, man, like not not

72
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:44.800
a loss to me. And what
I meant by that was I just don't

73
00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:47.639
know if A twenty four is a
company that I want messing with Friday thirteenth.

74
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:50.399
I'm just gonna say that, why
is that, Dave? Because it's

75
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:55.399
a it's a straight up campy slasher
film. Not campy because it takes place

76
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:59.279
at a camp obviously, but just
no, that's why it's camping. Yes,

77
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:01.720
But at the same time, like
I just it feels like it just

78
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:04.879
does not need to be messed with. I don't know, you mean like

79
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:11.639
as in, there should be no
show at all. That's tough for me.

80
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:15.439
I mean, this is mister,
I'm excited for dairy on Max.

81
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:17.839
Welcome to Darry, Yes, welcome
to Darry. I mean I'm excited for

82
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:21.800
that With A twenty four do it
a Friday thirteen series? My biggest issue

83
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:27.680
is just I don't know what story
they can tell at this point that may

84
00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:30.160
or may not pull me back into
it. Also, the first Friday teenth

85
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:35.319
Friday the thirteenth series we got was
fine at best. Well it literally had

86
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:39.759
zero to zero. It's not like
when people talk about Freddy's nightmares and it

87
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:42.480
had just a little to do with
Freddy. Yeah, I mean the Friday

88
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:45.480
thirteenth the series had nothing. I
mean did they even have a hockey mask

89
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:46.439
in their store? You know?
See, That's what I'm saying, Like

90
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:49.920
I had nothing to do with it. I I'm not saying it whether it's

91
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:55.120
good or bad, but I am
saying that A twenty four is known for

92
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:58.000
doing interesting things absolutely, And I
mean there's a lot of eight twenty four

93
00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:00.600
films that I like, and there's
something I don't. That's why you cry,

94
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:05.920
My god, It's it's more so
just I don't know if Friday throughteenth

95
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:09.720
the series is something we need At
this point, I'll just say that what

96
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:12.480
do we need, Dave? What
does the world need now, David?

97
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:15.560
A Slaughter High remake, another Crow
series. When you say Slaughter High remake,

98
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:18.879
you mean a big budget Slaughters like
Platinum, dude. Oh yeah,

99
00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:24.040
oh yeah? And then what was
the other thing? Another Crow series,

100
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:30.199
another Crow series, another TV Honestly, that would be smarter than a movie.

101
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:31.800
I'm kind of surprised, to be
honest, I'm not. I mean,

102
00:07:31.839 --> 00:07:35.720
I'm not, but yeah, I
mean, it's it's difficult because I'm

103
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:41.920
I'm really hoping that movie is good. It's all I'm gonna say. Well,

104
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:45.920
time will tell and it can't rain
all the time, but Edward for

105
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:49.839
long? But no, no,
that's that's But it was just funny because

106
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:55.759
you got so uh, you got
caught up and being kind of not Yeah,

107
00:07:55.839 --> 00:07:58.519
no I was. I wasn't.
I wouldn't say I was grumpy about

108
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:01.519
it, but I would say that
maybe I was grumpy about it, but

109
00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:05.040
smidgeon, a smidgeon. I guess
my biggest point with it is so the

110
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:07.800
first omen we saw and I and
I and I really dug the first Omeen

111
00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:11.920
and that the first film the Oen, but the movie called the First Omen

112
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:16.319
prequel. Yeah, and I'm trying
to think what the Exorcist Believer I It

113
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:20.120
was fine, it was fine.
I liked some of the things they did,

114
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:22.199
but I really got the First Omen
was really good. I like,

115
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:24.879
I love First Omen. No,
that's what I'm saying. I liked.

116
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.199
For someone Exorcist believer, it was
OK. It was fine. And that's

117
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:31.879
why I'm just kind of like with
some of these prequel requel sequels, I'm

118
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:35.120
I'm mid on right now. Well, everything that's old is new again,

119
00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:41.919
including being almost entirely a market full
of remakes, which is basically that was

120
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:45.080
the landscape when I was a teenager. Yeah, so, well, you

121
00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:48.080
wouldn't know you were you were you
were. It was the tail end of

122
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:52.840
that remake craze. I mean,
do you like I remember so so by

123
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:56.399
two thousand and one, two thousand
and two, the average horror fan would

124
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:01.200
say, I am just so sick
of these remakes. Yeah, all the

125
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:05.279
time. It was a very common
sentiment, to the point where when of

126
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:09.360
all things, like when Adam Green's
Hatchet finally got made, yeah, they

127
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:13.840
were literally celebrating that it was and
it was not that it was a non

128
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:18.360
remake in theaters, and Green used
to always say that when he was trying

129
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:20.039
to pitch things that like every students
be like, well, we really would

130
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:24.879
rather have a remake or whatever,
and I'm like, okay, yeah,

131
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:28.480
now you know. Meanwhile, now
Hatchet is now into four films for films

132
00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:33.279
and damn near being remade. Yes, but that's that's life. But my

133
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:37.840
point is that was that was the
mentality then and it seems to be the

134
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:41.399
mentality returning now. It absolutely is, because I mean, when we went

135
00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:43.759
to the theater or or was this
one I had to see Themummy? I

136
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:46.399
can't remember basically when I went to
the theater recently, and I think it

137
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:48.759
was when I went to the retro
screening of The Mummy recently, the nineteen

138
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:52.960
eighty nine it was like they had
oh god, I'm trying to remember what

139
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:56.159
the trailers were, but it was
all remakes and sequels and then there was

140
00:09:56.200 --> 00:10:00.480
like one original movie mixed in.
So like even with the trailer we're seeing

141
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:03.360
in theaters now, it's a lot
of uh, you know, the next

142
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:07.879
installments coming of this, or this
requels coming or this legacy sequels coming.

143
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:11.679
But at the same time, I
mean when I just did an episode of

144
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:15.320
one of my other shows. I
did Monthly Spooky a week or so ago.

145
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:20.480
It dawned on me I had seen
I believe it was six horror films

146
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:24.840
in the theater in a month,
and of those I think two were remakes.

147
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:28.679
Okay, because I saw, of
course the first omen Yeah, Immaculate,

148
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:33.240
which is not a remake or anything. I saw a Sting Yep,

149
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:39.039
I saw Late Night with the Devil, I saw Arcadian, and then I

150
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:46.080
saw The Abigail, So actually only
one of those was a remake. Yeah.

151
00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:48.799
So I mean, I'm just saying
like, at least in the horror

152
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:52.360
space, it doesn't seem like it's
as a wash with remakes as it was

153
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:54.039
in the two thousand it was no
And I'll say and the one thing that

154
00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:58.679
I will say in SPA in spite
of all this is I don't have a

155
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:03.360
problem with new content coming out because
it doesn't diminish anything of the original as

156
00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:07.960
long as you're a true horror fan, which is up to It's like I

157
00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:13.679
remember, I remember, Hen has
known me for a long time, so

158
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:16.240
he knows he has instances where Salty
Dave as he calls it, has made

159
00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:20.679
an appearance yes, and Pure Salty
Dave. I remember Pure Salty Dave was

160
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:28.039
out in full force when Suspiria got
remade. Oh yeah yeah. And then

161
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:30.759
you were like, actually, it's
not so bad. And I sat down

162
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:33.000
and watched it, and it when
I was done watching it, my my

163
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:37.000
Blu ray wasn't broken in half.
I didn't put it in and the picture

164
00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:41.399
was all pixelated. So you were
disappointed destroy the original? No, that

165
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:43.320
was my point was it didn't destroy
the original. So I mean with a

166
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:48.000
Friday thirteenth series, Fredy my god, Friday thirteenth series coming from Peacock and

167
00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:52.960
A twenty four, I would absolutely
watch it. It's just finding out the

168
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:56.200
news of it getting canceled, possibly
getting canceled, which it probably didn't.

169
00:11:56.399 --> 00:11:58.159
It was more so it was just
like, eh, okay, like it.

170
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:01.960
It's not it's something I'm chopping at
the bit for. But I'll watch

171
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:03.360
it. I'll still watch it.
Oh you know, you'd watch it like

172
00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:07.799
the little consumer who you are,
and you you know it. You know

173
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:11.879
you didn't say I love if it
was like only six or eight episodes,

174
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.240
bro, you'd be like, bro, Saturday, you want to just do

175
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:18.919
it? Oh yeah, fuck,
get a chicken. That's literally the kind

176
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:22.159
of text that Dave and I exchanged, by the way, and maybe maybe

177
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:24.559
that's honestly what I kind of miss
too, is that I feel like with

178
00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:26.639
such an oversaturated market because like you
know, great example is like I'm watching

179
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:30.360
Fargo now and you've been telling me
to watch to catch up on Fargo for

180
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:33.120
a couple of years now, Yeah, easily, And it's with the saturated

181
00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:37.639
market, it feels like there's there's
never a there's never a shortage of anything

182
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:39.159
to watch. So with that in
mind of a series, it's like,

183
00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:43.840
yeah, I'll definitely get to it, but it's a matter of when and

184
00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:46.919
how quick and how quickly I'll go
through it. For that matter, did

185
00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:50.399
you hear marvel Is saying they're going
to commit to two to three films and

186
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.440
two series a year. Damn,
that's such a massive scale back. It's

187
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:58.799
a cutdown, Yeah, an incredible
scale back. Yeah, because what they

188
00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:01.840
were averaging like what four a year? I think it was six six,

189
00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:07.000
but they had like nine series come
out like over the course of one year,

190
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:09.000
with something ridiculous like that. That's
not an exact number, but it's

191
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:13.320
close. Yeah, So I get
what you're saying, I mean in the

192
00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:16.919
oversaturated market is a challenge. I
just started watching well, I just finished

193
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:24.200
watching the the the mini series sequel
of Justified City Primeval, which was perfectly

194
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:28.399
fine ended in a way that kind
of pissed me off. Damn it.

195
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:33.039
But I mean because I now I'm
like, well, it kind of makes

196
00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:35.559
you think there's gonna be more,
but there shouldn't be. They said there

197
00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:41.080
wouldn't. Yeah, but I and
now I'm watching Fallout. But I do

198
00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:43.440
have trouble keeping up with all the
shows. Yeah, I do too,

199
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:46.639
And I mean that's that's why it's
taken me several years the back on Fargo,

200
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:48.639
because when Fargo premiered, I loved
that first season, and I watched

201
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:52.080
the second season like about a year
or so after that. I want to

202
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:54.720
say, that's usually how that worked. No, No, let me shut

203
00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:56.919
up. You know what I mean. But yeah, I just fell off

204
00:13:56.919 --> 00:13:58.240
of it. And it's because I'm
just I'm bad at TV. So it's

205
00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:03.519
like with with Ah announcing that it's
possibly getting canceled. It's like it sucks,

206
00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:05.440
but at the same time, like
it's no lost meetings. I call

207
00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:11.039
bullshit. What you're bad at TV? Yet, Lifetime is television that doesn't

208
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:15.679
count. Oh so now you're gonna
piss where you eat. That doesn't count.

209
00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:18.120
You're gonna piss where you eat.
But Lifetime, I love those Lifetime.

210
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:22.000
Yeah, I'll tear through them like
I will watch six and one sitting

211
00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:26.080
sometimes, but god, the sitting
is on the toilet. Damn it.

212
00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:28.679
You got me there, Okay,
I know I got you. Hey,

213
00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:31.039
I mean, I'm bad at My
job is to keep you on it.

214
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:35.759
I'm bad at other TV. I
guess you're you know, I mean,

215
00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:37.720
I don't know. I think a
part of it is that you're just bad.

216
00:14:39.519 --> 00:14:43.519
Bad at six, bad at six. That's the first Holliston reference we've

217
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:46.279
had here on the show for episodes. Yeah, I mean it's only a

218
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:50.000
like fourteen year old show. Uh
but no, no, no, I

219
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:56.240
I get it. There is so
much content to consume. It's it's challenging

220
00:14:56.279 --> 00:15:00.679
sometimes. Yeah, sometimes it feels
like you have to consume it. And

221
00:15:00.679 --> 00:15:03.279
that's like one of the things that
I've kind of had hit me with this

222
00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:09.600
over abundance of sequels remakes stuff like
that, where it's like, you know,

223
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:11.360
one week it's Indiana Jones, the
next week it's another marvel thing.

224
00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:13.519
The next week, it's another Disney
thing, and then it's this and that

225
00:15:13.519 --> 00:15:16.559
that. It used to be.
I did feel not to sound like Jerry

226
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.159
Seinfeld, but it used to be
I did feel like if I didn't go

227
00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:22.960
see them, I was missing out
on a cultural element. And I get

228
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:24.600
that. I don't feel that at
all. I don't either. Now.

229
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:28.080
I'm like, I I just want
to see as many movies in the theater

230
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:30.200
as I can. That look fun. Well, it's like, you know,

231
00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:33.200
going back to the whole thing of
you know, the original days of

232
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:35.000
the first streaming, like Warns of
the New Black. I was talking to

233
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:37.399
somebody about this the other day.
I was one of those people that when

234
00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:41.200
season two dropped, I was watching
it at three thirty in the morning when

235
00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:46.519
we got it originally released over here, because you've got time. I don't

236
00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:50.240
have any show like that anymore that'll
pull me that quick. It feels like,

237
00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:54.039
really, I really don't except for
I mean, god damn it,

238
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:58.440
what below Deck is currently the only
thing that I'm watching as a premiere.

239
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:03.799
Dave likes garbage reality shows more than
work made by hard working people. That's

240
00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.080
it. Dave's like, look,
I want my horror elevated and my television

241
00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:11.440
below deck. You know, that's
the only thing that I'm watching is it

242
00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:14.919
premieres right now that I can think
of at least. But that's not to

243
00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:18.039
say that like I'm trying to catch
back up on stuff, because I did

244
00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:22.919
feel like I've missed out on Fargo
especially and City Prime Evils Won and Mayans

245
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:26.080
Mayans Them is what I want to
start watching the Amazon Prime show and The

246
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:29.600
Boys is coming. So I mean, well, you've watched The Boys up

247
00:16:29.679 --> 00:16:30.679
until now, haven't you. Oh
yeah, I'm all caught up. Yeah,

248
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.759
oh of course you watched. I've
watched the entire series that's available right

249
00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:37.200
now twice. So anyway, all
of this to say Dave is a bad

250
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:42.759
person and we should all shun him. I will absolutely watch the pre through

251
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:47.240
the series if it happens. If
it doesn't happen, I'm not gonna cry

252
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:49.120
about it. You just hope it
doesn't happen. It's not that I'm moving

253
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:56.120
on. Is that what we're doing? Do you even? Movie? Will

254
00:16:56.159 --> 00:17:11.079
be right back? Welcome back to
Do you even movie? It's not the

255
00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:15.200
menu? What is that? It's
a movie? Okay? Well, Dave

256
00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:18.200
give us the poignant deeps. All
right, So we're talking about the menu

257
00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:22.680
in twenty twenty two and it was
one hour and forty seven minutes. RTED

258
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:29.720
R for strong, disturbing, violent
content, language throughout and some sexual references.

259
00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:33.359
I'm such a child whenever I see
language throughout. Yeah, I always

260
00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:34.920
go oh. I hate movies that
have language. Why do they have to

261
00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:40.640
talk? Those talkie pictures? Silent
film for me? So the director of

262
00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:45.039
this film is Mark Milad. Is
it my let or Meelid? Is it

263
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:48.039
my lad? Okay? Mark Mylad? He gets his start in nineteen ninety

264
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:51.359
five directing a show called The Stand
Up Show, then does Cold Feet in

265
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:53.599
nineteen eighty eight, The Royal Family
in ninety eight, Randall and Hope and

266
00:17:53.640 --> 00:17:57.039

thousand, Ali g into House of the

267
00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:00.839
Movie in two thousand and two Are
You Serious? Series? Does that makes

268
00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:04.640
sense considering the producers come from the
comedy world as well. Shameless the UK

269
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:07.799
series in two thousand and four,
The Big White with Rob Williams in two

270
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:11.039
thousand and five, United States of
Tara two thousand and nine, Entourage two

271
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:15.480
thousand and six, What's Your Number
twenty eleven, Once upon a Time in

272
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:18.720
twenty eleven, Shameless, the American
series twenty eleven. I didn't know that

273
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:23.319
that Shameless shared directors The Affair in
twenty fourteen, Minority Reports series in twenty

274
00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:26.839
fifteen, Game of Thrones twenty fifteen, Succession twenty eighteen. Then he does

275
00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:30.839
The Menu in twenty twenty two,
and most recently he has done Last of

276
00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:33.480
Us, The Last, The Last
of Us, excuse me, the video

277
00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:37.519
game series, the video game series
on Max. Yeah. Our writers on

278
00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:40.960
this are Seth rees who did writer. He was a writer on Cheap Seats

279
00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:44.559
without Ron Parker in two thousand and
five, College Humor Originals in two thousand

280
00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:48.519
and nine, Onion Sports Dome twenty
eleven, The Onion News Network twenty eleven,

281
00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:52.839
Comedy Bang Bang twenty thirteen, the
sixty sixth Primetime Emmy Awards in twenty

282
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:56.319
fourteen. Late Night was Seth Meyers
twenty fourteen. And I was also a

283
00:18:56.359 --> 00:18:57.839
writer on the Menu of Course in
twenty twenty two, and The Regime in

284
00:18:57.839 --> 00:19:00.839
twenty twenty four I've not seen is
the Regime out? Yeah? No,

285
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:03.119
I think it's I think it's streaming
right now. Yeah, I've not heard

286
00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:07.160
of it. I want to say
Netflix are prime I can't remember which.

287
00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:11.960
It's interesting because the producers on two
of them are Will Ferrell and Adam McKay

288
00:19:12.079 --> 00:19:18.880
is correct famous for the Gary Sanchez
Production Company and making comedy Yeah, and

289
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:23.880
also founding Funnier Die Yeah Funny,
which is which makes sense that we're seeing

290
00:19:23.880 --> 00:19:27.319
a lot of people working in that
realm of comedy. And our other writer

291
00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:30.440
is Will Tracy. He was a
writer on the Onion News Network in twenty

292
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:34.519
eleven, Onion's Extremely Accurate History of
the Internet twenty twelve, Last Week Tonight

293
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:38.279
with John Oliver twenty fourteen, Succession
twenty nineteen, The Menu twenty twenty two,

294
00:19:38.359 --> 00:19:42.160
and also The Regime in twenty twenty
four went from writing just straight up

295
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:45.640
comedy to like, really intense stuff
because Succession, I've heard is very good.

296
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:48.960
That talk about the show, talking

about I've never seen, Oh you
would love Succession. Oh so Dave's had

298
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:56.079
time to watch Succession? Everybody,
So why aren't you watching the Mayans?

299
00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:59.119
Is it because they're Mexican as not? Why it's because I'm bad at TV

300
00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:03.519
shows. When they're not Succession,
they're not successional or belowdeck. Apparently moving

I thought there was two of them that

324
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:34.599

325
00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:37.680
sure it's not. I'm pretty sure
it was meant to get to get attention,

408
00:26:42.079 --> 00:26:45.880
in physical Well, I still watch
it. Sad locked this thing four hive

409
00:26:48.079 --> 00:26:52.000
very sad first time watching? What'd
you think? What are you talking about

410
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:53.960
now? Now? Well, the
first time we saw this was in twenty

411
00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:56.480
twenty two in the theater. Correct, Yeah, we claim. I was

412
00:26:56.519 --> 00:27:00.319
on my second viewing. That's what
I recall. I don't remember seeing it

413
00:27:00.359 --> 00:27:03.160
twice, but it's possible I recall
that you had already seen it. But

414
00:27:03.720 --> 00:27:10.240
I could be misremembering because I remember
I swear that I had an imitation to

415
00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:12.240
go with you guys, but something
had kept me from going, and so

416
00:27:12.319 --> 00:27:15.759
we went over the weekend. Is
how I remember it. I mean,

417
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:18.440
that could very well have happened.
I only remember going to see it once

418
00:27:18.559 --> 00:27:22.599
with you off the top of my
head. I remembered enjoying it very much.

419
00:27:22.720 --> 00:27:29.880
I did like how layered the story
was. I did like what the

420
00:27:29.880 --> 00:27:36.839
film has to say about the desire
for perfection, what service means, which

421
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:40.240
I think is a big part of
the film, is what it means to

422
00:27:40.359 --> 00:27:45.440
serve. It doesn't, you know, necessarily mean being a slave. But

423
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:49.920
if you don't care about service,
then you're not doing the job. I

424
00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:53.400
kind of like that mentality, that
concept in the film. So I remember

425
00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:56.160
walking out of it and thinking like, that's pretty damn good, yeah,

426
00:27:56.640 --> 00:28:03.720
and praying that Anya Taylor Joy's eyes
don't get any bigger for my own safety.

427
00:28:03.039 --> 00:28:07.279
I remember walking out of a theater
and being like that was it met

428
00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:11.960
all my expectations, but also it
kind of went above them, because I

429
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:14.480
do remember halfway through the film you
were like, oh, this is one

430
00:28:14.519 --> 00:28:18.240
of those and he put a beret
in a scar farm and a very small

431
00:28:18.279 --> 00:28:22.039
tea cups fal tea cup, like
an incredibly tiny tea cup, which you

432
00:28:22.079 --> 00:28:26.400
were which you go, and then
when I go, Dave stopped, You'd

433
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:29.440
be like the an it makes it
taste You're making me think of that freaking

434
00:28:29.559 --> 00:28:36.279
meme I know again, Yeah,
no, I I was really excited for

435
00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:38.160
this movie. I remember when the
trailer first dropped. I don't think I

436
00:28:38.160 --> 00:28:41.799
saw it in theaters for the first
time. I think I saw it online.

437
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:44.440
It just it was one of those
movies that's like, this looks really

438
00:28:44.440 --> 00:28:48.319
interesting and I hope it's good.
You were like, hey, a movie

439
00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:52.240
about overpriced food made by people who
hate you. Finally a film about white

440
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:56.000
experience. Yeah, that's exactly what
it was. How'd you know? But

441
00:28:56.079 --> 00:29:00.200
No, I just remember I was
excited for this movie. I could not

442
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:03.599
wait for it to because I mean, by this point, I can't remember

443
00:29:03.599 --> 00:29:07.839
if we had really gone back to
the theater much. In we were going

444
00:29:07.880 --> 00:29:11.240
a lot, going a long one. Okay, it's kind of a little

445
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:14.759
week, but it's it was a
weird time because it was a lot of

446
00:29:15.480 --> 00:29:19.160
older movie movies and small movies that
don't usually go into theaters going into theaters.

447
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:22.319
That's what we saw a lot of
stuff because the first time I was

448
00:29:22.440 --> 00:29:26.160
back in the theater for a new
release movie was New Mutants. Okay,

449
00:29:26.640 --> 00:29:30.119
because you got to remember in Ohio
they opened the theaters. I want to

450
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:34.680
say it was either in October or
November of twenty twenty was when the movie

451
00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:41.880
theaters reopened and and I went and
saw the the What was that movie about?

452
00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:45.240
Like the War with Grandpa? Oh? Robert neiramyeh, yeah, yeah,

453
00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:47.279
I think it was called War with
Grandpa Granda. I saw that.

454
00:29:47.599 --> 00:29:49.799
I saw a lot of stuff.
We saw that movie the stairs, remember

455
00:29:49.839 --> 00:29:56.039
that. Yeah, I didn't want
to, but you made me. But

456
00:29:56.160 --> 00:30:00.759
no. The menu was one that
I a media knew that I that I

457
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:03.319
loved it, and I was excited
to go see it again. So you're

458
00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:06.000
ready to get into this, puppy. What is it now? The menu?

459
00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:08.279
We already have gotten into it.
We started, Oh now we're starting.

460
00:30:08.279 --> 00:30:15.480
We started already breakdown. Do You
Even? Movie? Will be right

461
00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:30.759
back, welcome back to Do You
Even? Movie? So we are invited

462
00:30:30.839 --> 00:30:33.519
to the menu. That's the opening
credit. That's literally the only credit we

463
00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:37.200
get, and that's we meet up
with Margo and Tyler, and Tyler is

464
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:40.880
scolding Margo for smoking, saying that
it's gonna it's basically gonna deplete her taste,

465
00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:41.440
budg, She's not gonna be able
to taste the food. And we

466
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:45.680
can tell that Tyler is really really
excited about what they're getting ready to do,

467
00:30:45.960 --> 00:30:48.119
high strung and excited. They're waiting
on a boat, waiting on a

468
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:52.000
boat to take them to a restaurant
that is twelve fifty ahead, and there's

469
00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:56.799
only I think twelve people in attendance. I think twelve seats in attendance fifty

470
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:02.000
cents ahead. That's one thousand,
two hundred fifty dollars ahead. Oh yes

471
00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:07.000
to price. No, sorry,
I was thinking Chipotle twenty nineteen, but

472
00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:11.000
you're talking about Chipotle twenty twenty four. Oh yeah, yeah. And that's

473
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:14.279
when we meet the rest of the
people. There's like three tech bros that

474
00:31:14.319 --> 00:31:17.680
are going. There's a washed up
star play by John Leguizamo who's bringing his

475
00:31:17.680 --> 00:31:21.440
assistant along. There's two regulars that
have been to this restaurant like over ten

476
00:31:21.519 --> 00:31:26.559
times an older. There's a food
critic who takes claim for basically giving Julian

477
00:31:26.599 --> 00:31:30.920
the spotlight. It's a critic and
her publisher publisher yep. And they all

478
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:34.119
take the boat over to Hawthorne,
enjoying a nice refresher of oysters on the

479
00:31:34.119 --> 00:31:38.960
boat. Yes, and that's the
beginning of it, because what's Anya Tailler

480
00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:44.640
Joy's characters name Margo. Margo points
out that it's delicious, but she just

481
00:31:44.680 --> 00:31:45.880
likes oyster. Yeah she would,
just like she did really care about the

482
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:52.400
stuff on top of yeah, which
was some reconstituted fluffy, foamy bullshit.

483
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:57.559
Yeah, yes, raw local oyster
in a mignette emulsion with lemon caviar and

484
00:31:57.599 --> 00:32:01.759
an oyster leaf, oyster leaf,
oyster leaf. I have the whole menu

485
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:06.440
pulled up, of course you do. But when she says that her date

486
00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:08.160
is very perturbed, like, oh
no, no, no, it's it's

487
00:32:08.200 --> 00:32:10.920
a whole thing. It all comes
together, and then of course it's big.

488
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:15.160
He's like you, you'll understand it
all when you've eaten all of it

489
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:17.240
because it tells a story and figure
out what the story of the man.

490
00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:22.640
And that's the beginning of what he
of him talking about how it all comes

491
00:32:22.720 --> 00:32:24.400
together. You have to take each
experience and then try to piece it together.

492
00:32:24.400 --> 00:32:29.119
And that's why he's obsessed with the
work of this this guy is because

493
00:32:29.160 --> 00:32:32.720
to him, he's a master storyteller
as well as a master baiter. Yes,

494
00:32:32.839 --> 00:32:37.880
a master baiter. Indeed. So
we arrive on Hawthorne and we are

495
00:32:37.119 --> 00:32:40.039
we are welcomed with a shot of
this island that I basically told you,

496
00:32:40.119 --> 00:32:44.000
it just feels like all the life
has been sucked out of it. Well,

497
00:32:44.359 --> 00:32:46.839
I mean it looks desolate. Yeah, sure, yeah. So the

498
00:32:46.839 --> 00:32:52.160
guest check in and that's when we
meet Elsa. She is a chef Slovak's

499
00:32:52.359 --> 00:32:58.319
right hand person and frost demon or
whatever she is. Yes, it goes

500
00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:00.680
okay, I'll let it go.
So the guest check in, we meet

501
00:33:00.680 --> 00:33:04.759
Elsa, and that's when we find
out that Tyler originally had another date,

502
00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:07.880
but he has replaced her with Margo
and they were not notified ahead of time.

503
00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:12.440
Well you know, awkward, Yeah, awkward indeed. So she takes

504
00:33:12.440 --> 00:33:15.799
them on a tour of the twelve
acre island of forests and pasture. She

505
00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:19.720
points out a boat that's pissing,
pissing, Wow, well done, picking

506
00:33:19.759 --> 00:33:22.119
fresh scallops out of the water.
And she takes them further on the tour,

507
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:24.480
shows them their proteins, shows them
the quarters where they all sleep,

508
00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:28.119
and that's when we kind of get
a first taste of how this is an

509
00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:31.960
odd experience because they go into the
chef's quarters and it's just, I mean,

510
00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:36.440
it looks like a prison. Well
yeah, I mean it literally has

511
00:33:36.480 --> 00:33:38.119
a prison, toilet prison, toilet, prison, shower. Well, well,

512
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:42.559
because prison toilet sinks are a thing. They're at high efficiency. So

513
00:33:42.599 --> 00:33:45.200
it's a sink and a toilet and
there are two of them three feet apart,

514
00:33:45.319 --> 00:33:50.599
which means that they're double occupied.
It gets pretty intimate pretty quickly,

515
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:53.599
it does, indeed. But no, I mean that's where the staff is,

516
00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:57.359
the shot, not the chef.
Yeah, but that's where the staff

517
00:33:57.400 --> 00:34:00.480
lives. And they live on the
island. They mentioned that they are up

518
00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:04.119
at six a m. And that
final dinner service ends at two. Yeah,

519
00:34:04.160 --> 00:34:07.480
and dinner is four hours long,
and they do six hours of prep

520
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:10.599
when they start their day. So
she says it would be silly not to

521
00:34:10.639 --> 00:34:14.280
live there, Yes, because of
how much time they dedicate. Well,

522
00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:15.840
and she goes on this whole thing
about how you know they do this,

523
00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:19.920
they do this, they do this, they gel, they gel, And

524
00:34:20.440 --> 00:34:23.199
that's when we the group goes to
enter Hawthorne, and Hawthorne is a restaurant

525
00:34:23.199 --> 00:34:28.039
that is set right on the water. It's a I mean a modernized slanted

526
00:34:28.119 --> 00:34:30.599
roof. Well it's not modern,
you mean postmodern, postmod Yeah. All

527
00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:38.920
the architecture is extremely post Malone post
Malone architecture. So Tyler is losing his

528
00:34:38.960 --> 00:34:44.360
shit over the restaurant and he sees
the chef's cooking the side chefs and goes

529
00:34:44.400 --> 00:34:45.840
up to them. He's like,
okay, you know, we gotta go

530
00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:46.840
see this. So he goes over
and he's he's like, you know,

531
00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:49.719
are you using such and such on
that? And he's like, yeah,

532
00:34:49.719 --> 00:34:51.480
mister so and such. He's like, oh, you know my name and

533
00:34:51.519 --> 00:34:52.800
he's like, we know everybody.
He's like, we like to know everyone,

534
00:34:53.400 --> 00:34:55.559
you know, go ahead and take
your seat. Dinner will begin shortly.

535
00:34:55.679 --> 00:34:59.360
And Margo gives him crap because she's
like, you know, it seems

536
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:00.320
like he knew you're a but you
didn't ask him his And he's like,

537
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:06.519
oh yeah, he's didn't ask him
his name. Yeah, tells him to

538
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:08.920
take a seat, and that's when
Chef slow It comes out and he steals

539
00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:12.760
the room. Everybody's looking at him, especially Tyler, and he he said,

540
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:15.320
take a seat. I helped Chris
Hansen. U have a seat.

541
00:35:15.360 --> 00:35:16.960
Go ahead, take a seat.
So good news, bad news about this

542
00:35:17.039 --> 00:35:23.639
island. Oh God got him.
That's a screen graph of the episode right

543
00:35:23.679 --> 00:35:29.360
there. My freaking eyes on that. So that's when they introduced their first

544
00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:32.159
dish, which is a mush bush, which is the appetizer. It's compressed

545
00:35:32.159 --> 00:35:38.039
and pickled cucumber, melon, milk, snow, charred lace. Those as

546
00:35:38.239 --> 00:35:42.519
are all words. And we see
the food critic, Lilian making comments on

547
00:35:42.559 --> 00:35:45.199
the tasting that she said that that
they you know, they didn't say what

548
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:46.800
kind of milk it is, and
she thinks she tastes goat. The assistant

549
00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:50.440
is trying to wish like Wasamo best
of luck. The tech bros Are talking

550
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:52.960
about life and being dicks, and
Marco asked Tyler about the food and he

551
00:35:53.039 --> 00:35:57.519
states that chef plays with raw materials
of life, adding that his obsession was

552
00:35:57.519 --> 00:36:00.199
slowly, you know, going on
about how he so impressed to his background,

553
00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:02.519
his pedigree and all the stuff.
And Margo's not impressed. No,

554
00:36:02.719 --> 00:36:07.360
she's like being kind of Braddy at
this at this juncture. She's just kind

555
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:12.159
of like, you really like this
stuff, and it's like, Homie,

556
00:36:12.840 --> 00:36:15.159
of course he does. Why else
would you, well there, well,

557
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:17.199
there is one other reason to be
there for status, yes, And frankly

558
00:36:17.239 --> 00:36:22.880
I think it's less sad to be
there because you like overpriced food then so

559
00:36:22.960 --> 00:36:24.559
that people will see you in an
Instagram. Yeah, yeah, so you

560
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:29.480
can put it on the gram.
So then we get to our first course,

561
00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:31.599
and that's when we see slowly tasting
something and he just has no real

562
00:36:31.639 --> 00:36:36.159
passion. And basically the restaurants run
like an assembly line in this sense,

563
00:36:36.199 --> 00:36:39.519
like everybody is doing one thing at
a time, preparing the dishes for everything.

564
00:36:39.599 --> 00:36:45.159
I have to disagree. Okay,
no, it's not an assembly assembly.

565
00:36:45.519 --> 00:36:51.360
It's it's a it is a hyper
efficient kitchen. Sorry, I would

566
00:36:51.440 --> 00:36:55.599
say that they're they're so obsessed with
efficiency and perfection. That's kind of the

567
00:36:55.599 --> 00:36:59.960
whole thing. Well, everyone's on
the same speed. Everybody's doing the basic,

568
00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:01.440
the same thing, prepping at the
same time with these dishes, and

569
00:37:01.480 --> 00:37:05.960
they're all plating in exactly the same
Yeah, yeah they are. But an

570
00:37:05.960 --> 00:37:08.960
assembly line suggests a degree of disconnection. That's fair. Now, everyone in

571
00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:12.840
there is an expert. Yeah,
that is absolutely fair. So the rest

572
00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:15.719
of the chef's plate and they are
plating the island, which is raw diver

573
00:37:15.800 --> 00:37:22.199
scallop, pickled local seaweeds and algae
placed on rocks from the shore. Ms

574
00:37:22.679 --> 00:37:27.199
so Slowik welcomes everybody telling them,
you know, the one thing I want

575
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:30.000
for you to do tonight is not
to eat. I want you to taste,

576
00:37:30.360 --> 00:37:34.000
savor, relish, consider every morsel, and accept all of it,

577
00:37:34.079 --> 00:37:37.920
and forgive, which I love that
message because on further viewings it's a bit

578
00:37:37.960 --> 00:37:40.280
cryptic. I love that too,
because then I just immediately realized that I'm

579
00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:44.719
just Mason from surviving the game,
Like, yo, you your way,

580
00:37:44.760 --> 00:37:46.400
I'll do it mine, just horking
down food as fast as you can.

581
00:37:46.880 --> 00:37:51.280
So the guests are served and Margo
tries to strike conversation up, but Tyler

582
00:37:51.400 --> 00:37:54.119
is worried that he offended chef Slowick
because at one point he asked him I

583
00:37:54.119 --> 00:37:58.440
can't remember he was slogan was introducing
the dish, and he like interrupts him.

584
00:37:58.440 --> 00:37:59.679
He's like, oh excuse me,
and he's like, oh, no,

585
00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:01.760
shit, go ahead. Yeah,
he wanted to ask something about what

586
00:38:01.800 --> 00:38:05.920
he tasted. It was. So
the food critic is doing her bullshit and

587
00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:08.119
nippicking it, and leg was Amo
is then questioned about what he's going to

588
00:38:08.199 --> 00:38:10.639
do for this food travel show that
he's going to go on. Yeah,

589
00:38:10.679 --> 00:38:15.480
he's clearly playing a washed up actor. We'll get to who he's playing it.

590
00:38:15.599 --> 00:38:17.440
Yeah. Yeah, because leg was
Amo said he kind of based it

591
00:38:17.480 --> 00:38:21.960
on someone he had encountered. Yeah, but he's playing like a washed up

592
00:38:22.000 --> 00:38:25.400
actor who's trying to start a new
part of his career by having a streaming

593
00:38:25.480 --> 00:38:30.360
show about traveling and eating fancy food. Because his assistant ask him, you

594
00:38:30.400 --> 00:38:30.599
know, how is it. He's
like, oh, it's good. She's

595
00:38:30.639 --> 00:38:32.400
like, well, if you're going
to do the show, it can't be

596
00:38:32.440 --> 00:38:36.239
good. It has to be amazing, it has to be great. So

597
00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:38.440
then he pitches this bullshit thing about
how they were going to go to the

598
00:38:38.760 --> 00:38:44.039
hills of El Salvador to Italy and
he'll be on a blue vest bat and

599
00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:45.760
they'll go to where the guy makes
the cheese and he'll go, oh my

600
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:49.159
god, I'll chew on the cheese. I'll close my eyes, I'll fake

601
00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:51.000
an orgasm, and then boom,
we're in Rio. Oh. And then

602
00:38:51.039 --> 00:38:52.280
he talks about, you know,
how racism's bad. Oh. He's like

603
00:38:52.360 --> 00:38:54.760
him, will be at Rio,
I'll talk about how racism is bad and

604
00:38:54.800 --> 00:39:00.000
everything, and then I'll get an
enemy. Yeah. She's not impressed.

605
00:39:00.119 --> 00:39:01.719
So we get to the second course. Slowik claps his hands and that's what

606
00:39:01.800 --> 00:39:05.280
chef Slog does in this movie every
time to bring attention. When they're starting

607
00:39:05.280 --> 00:39:08.440
the dishes. He just brings his
hands together, the one incredibly loud yeah

608
00:39:08.480 --> 00:39:12.519
clap, and he's introducing the bread
course of the film, but with one

609
00:39:12.599 --> 00:39:15.760
change because he talks about how bread
is, you know, the common man's

610
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:17.960
meal. It's been around for as
long as anybody can remember, except this

611
00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:22.679
time they're gonna be served a breadplate
that's breadless. Yeah, no bread for

612
00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:27.559
them, but they do get the
akutrama savory savory accouterment. Yeah, so

613
00:39:28.280 --> 00:39:30.920
yeah, nothing to put it on. Yeah, but yeah, So they're

614
00:39:30.920 --> 00:39:35.559
served a breadless breadplate and the guests
are served these dishes with just the accompaniments,

615
00:39:35.559 --> 00:39:37.039
and the food critic points out that
like this is this is wild,

616
00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:39.920
Like this is this is crazy?
Oh I think I have a split emulsion

617
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:43.719
on the accompaniment, And she's like, well, they shouldn't be serving that.

618
00:39:44.199 --> 00:39:45.400
Tyler, of course, is losing
a shit over the experience, and

619
00:39:45.440 --> 00:39:50.239
Margo states how Slowik is basically insulting
everyone by serving this. Like she's like,

620
00:39:50.280 --> 00:39:52.519
you know, no, I know, I know what insulting is like,

621
00:39:52.559 --> 00:39:54.840
and this is exactly what he's doing. No bread, you don't serve

622
00:39:54.880 --> 00:39:59.360
them not bread. Yeah. So
Margo keeps going on with that, and

623
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:04.000
then Elsa serves the critic another broken
emulsion courtesy of chef Slowan, except it's

624
00:40:04.039 --> 00:40:07.719
twenty times the size the size of
a cereal bowl instead of a little dot.

625
00:40:07.079 --> 00:40:10.000
It's also mentioned as a side note. The tech bros even mentioned because

626
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:14.079
they're getting frustrated yet it's you're asking
for bread, yeah, but the reason

627
00:40:14.199 --> 00:40:17.840
is they mentioned that apparently they're famous
for their bread. They're famous for their

628
00:40:17.840 --> 00:40:22.039
bread, famous for their bread,
and they don't serve it because they're not

629
00:40:22.280 --> 00:40:25.960
the common men. No, you're
you all are anything but common. So

630
00:40:27.440 --> 00:40:30.840
they go and ask for bread,
including some gluten free. Elsa refuses and

631
00:40:30.880 --> 00:40:31.639
the tech bros are like, well, don't you know who we are?

632
00:40:31.639 --> 00:40:34.239
And she's like, yeah, I
know exactly you are. And they're like,

633
00:40:34.280 --> 00:40:36.159
are you sure you know who we
are and she's like yeah, and

634
00:40:36.199 --> 00:40:37.199
it's like, so you know we
work for Doug Verick, who owns the

635
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:40.920
restaurant. And she's like, no, you know, you will eat less

636
00:40:40.920 --> 00:40:44.599
than you desire and more than you
deserve if she whispers that in one of

637
00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:45.800
his ears, yeah, you'll eat
less than new desire, but more than

638
00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:49.760
you deserve. So Margo wants nothing
to do with the plate. Tyler goes

639
00:40:49.800 --> 00:40:52.559
to take it and in doing so, knocks over a wineglass, breaking the

640
00:40:52.559 --> 00:40:55.039
wineglass and drawing attention, and slow
it comes over, asking why Margo hasn't

641
00:40:55.039 --> 00:40:57.800
touched her food, and she's like, you know, I guess I'm just

642
00:40:57.800 --> 00:40:59.639
not really. She said there is
no food. Oh yeah, there is

643
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:00.400
no food. That was her first
point. Yeah, there is no food.

644
00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:02.199
Yeah, And he's like yeah,
He's like oh no, no,

645
00:41:02.280 --> 00:41:05.199
like there's absolutely food there. And
she's like, well, you know,

646
00:41:05.280 --> 00:41:07.320
I'm saving it for the better courses. I don't want to fill up.

647
00:41:07.360 --> 00:41:08.800
He's like, oh no, no, no, I've painstakingly you know,

648
00:41:09.000 --> 00:41:12.920
playing seeing you out fill up.
You won't fill out now. The portions

649
00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:16.480
are perfect, and he tells her
the menu designed specifically so portions won't overfill

650
00:41:16.519 --> 00:41:20.960
you, and then walks over to
the woman's table that we see just guzzling

651
00:41:21.039 --> 00:41:22.719
wine this entire time that he is
not addressed. Yeah, there's a little

652
00:41:22.760 --> 00:41:27.679
old lady just silently pounding wine.
Yeah. So then we get to the

653
00:41:27.679 --> 00:41:30.719
third course and we see the chef's
preparing the next disc. More wine is

654
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:35.400
poured and Margo looks over at one
of the regulars who's Richard, and his

655
00:41:35.480 --> 00:41:37.039
wife asked, you know, do
we know her she looks familiar. He's

656
00:41:37.039 --> 00:41:38.199
like, no, no, no, we don't know her. We don't

657
00:41:38.199 --> 00:41:42.599
know her. So then Slowik serves
the next course, explaining a Taco Night

658
00:41:42.639 --> 00:41:46.239
as the next dish. Basically intell
Taco Tuesday Docco When I was a boy,

659
00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:49.960
which I immediately I was like,
I don't care where you grew up.

660
00:41:50.119 --> 00:41:54.440
Man, he's like some kind of
European European but he's some kind of

661
00:41:54.480 --> 00:41:57.719
European. But He's like, we
had Taco Tuesday, and I don't think

662
00:41:57.719 --> 00:42:00.519
it's like nineteen sixty something in the
middle of the country. Yeah, I

663
00:42:00.559 --> 00:42:04.840
mean maybe I grew up with I
grew up with a Mexican stepdad, like,

664
00:42:05.599 --> 00:42:08.400
but tacos were already ubiquitous to the
world because of Taco Bell. But

665
00:42:08.480 --> 00:42:12.480
I always found that funny. I
was like, we're we're like middle we're

666
00:42:12.480 --> 00:42:15.840
like lower class, middle class white
Americans making tacos in like the sixties.

667
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:19.199
Hoto Tuesday. They might have been. I could just be wrong. I

668
00:42:19.239 --> 00:42:21.119
mean, I was born in eighty
six. What the hell do I know

669
00:42:21.159 --> 00:42:24.000
about anything? Not much. We
never had a Taco Tuesday growing up.

670
00:42:24.800 --> 00:42:28.880
Oh we we didn't. We well, for the record, my family,

671
00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:30.639
we didn't have taco Tuesday either.
Yeah, we had tac taco Monday,

672
00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:37.639
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, but never Tuesday. No

673
00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:42.800
Tuesday was for of course, no
God, But actually we didn't eat tacos

674
00:42:42.800 --> 00:42:45.719
as much as okay, you had
nachos. More. It seems like,

675
00:42:45.039 --> 00:42:47.719
well that was that was a weekend
thing. Oh okay, that was like,

676
00:42:50.239 --> 00:42:52.920
for lack of a better term,
that was when we couldn't afford pizza.

677
00:42:53.719 --> 00:42:58.039
Then it was nachos. We would
have like if we had like friends

678
00:42:58.039 --> 00:43:00.920
coming over or whatever. I mean, I'm very little. We had friends

679
00:43:00.920 --> 00:43:02.760
coming over whatever, they would make
up a bunch of nachos because it was

680
00:43:02.840 --> 00:43:07.480
much cheaper than ordering a bunch of
pizzas. Right now you have you've had

681
00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:10.719
my Yeah, yeah, my nachos
are amazing. And actually that's another reason

682
00:43:10.760 --> 00:43:15.440
I connect with this movie is I
love to cook, and I really love

683
00:43:15.519 --> 00:43:19.480
to make the people eating my food
happy. I don't I don't obsess over

684
00:43:19.519 --> 00:43:23.079
what I think is perfect. I
mean, you do hold a gun on

685
00:43:23.079 --> 00:43:27.760
me half the time. You make
noodles while I'm eating them, but that's

686
00:43:27.800 --> 00:43:30.639
just for fun. I have nothing
to do with the noodles. Are they

687
00:43:30.679 --> 00:43:36.840
good It's like be aware. The
answer may result in things you're not expecting.

688
00:43:36.960 --> 00:43:40.039
They're delicious, but well they'll never
be better. So I have to

689
00:43:40.119 --> 00:43:45.280
end you now. But no,
no, yeah, but so growing up

690
00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:50.400
eating food with a lot of Mexican
and you know, uh inspiration. Yeah.

691
00:43:50.440 --> 00:43:52.079
I mean we just had tortilla on
the table all the time. Every

692
00:43:52.119 --> 00:43:57.079
meal there beat tortilla, and you
could make anything a taco. You would.

693
00:43:57.079 --> 00:44:00.320
We would sit down to breakfast and
instead of toast, you just have

694
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:01.880
a bunch of tortilla. And if
you were really really hungry, you'd be

695
00:44:01.920 --> 00:44:05.519
like, oh, I'm putting my
eggs and stuff in the tortilla and eating

696
00:44:05.559 --> 00:44:08.119
it instead of instead of just eating
it regularly. It was just always an

697
00:44:08.119 --> 00:44:12.159
option to, you know, add
tortilla you want to make you really really

698
00:44:12.199 --> 00:44:15.599
sad real quick. I mean I'm
already very sad, but go on.

699
00:44:15.719 --> 00:44:17.519
So I remember when I was home
for like the first couple of days of

700
00:44:17.559 --> 00:44:21.199
quarantine, when they had sent us
home from work and we were working from

701
00:44:21.239 --> 00:44:23.760
home. I remember that I had
bought like several TV dinners, one of

702
00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:29.559
which I like, the Stofers spaghetti
and meatballs. It's it's not amazing,

703
00:44:29.559 --> 00:44:35.760
but I like it. It is
a four out of ten on sad So,

704
00:44:36.280 --> 00:44:38.920
oh, dear God, I'm scared. I have do shivers. Now.

705
00:44:38.960 --> 00:44:43.239
There was a segment in the show
I Carly where at one time they

706
00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:47.639
made spaghetti tacos and I had tortillas, and I had lost the will to

707
00:44:47.679 --> 00:44:52.199
live being home alone during quarantine.
So I remember I took my my heated

708
00:44:52.199 --> 00:44:55.559
spaghetti out of the oven or out
of the microwave and took the plastic all

709
00:44:55.559 --> 00:44:59.280
the way off and just took a
tortilla and just dumped it right in there.

710
00:44:59.320 --> 00:45:04.719
And I had a spaghetti taco and
it was magical. I mean,

711
00:45:04.760 --> 00:45:07.920
first of all, it's called piata. Have you ever had a piata?

712
00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:15.119
Yes, it's like it's like Italian
burrito pasta inside. Yes, that is

713
00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:19.639
one of the saddest things I've ever
heard. Yeah, the moral come,

714
00:45:19.679 --> 00:45:23.159
I'm sure, but I mean I'm
sure alcohol wasn't involved. Right, you

715
00:45:23.159 --> 00:45:28.280
were drunk, you don't act like
you were. No, izz I was

716
00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:30.360
not buzz for that one. For
the first one. I was not buzz

717
00:45:30.400 --> 00:45:35.519
for the first You made more than
one spaghetti taco. I like the taste

718
00:45:35.559 --> 00:45:38.800
of it. I had like three
of those TV dinners ready to go.

719
00:45:39.519 --> 00:45:45.440
I think you should make a spaghetti
baked potato, like drill a hole in

720
00:45:45.480 --> 00:45:47.639
the potato and fill it with that. I could probably make a very sad

721
00:45:47.679 --> 00:45:52.039
YouTube chef channel. I feel like
you could have stopped half. I can

722
00:45:52.119 --> 00:45:57.800
make it very sad. I can
make it very sad. Do You Even?

723
00:45:57.920 --> 00:46:10.679
Movie will be right back, welcome
back to Do You Even? Movie?

724
00:46:13.280 --> 00:46:15.519
So, he tells a story about
taco night when he was seven.

725
00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:19.800
His father came home drunk, which
was not uncommon, and his mother and

726
00:46:19.880 --> 00:46:23.239
father fought, and he ended up
his father and getting the phone cord and

727
00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:27.079
wrapping it around his mother's neck.
Sloak, being the kid that he was,

728
00:46:27.159 --> 00:46:29.760
went and reached for the first thing
he saw, which was kitten kitchen

729
00:46:29.760 --> 00:46:32.400
scissors, and stabbed his father in
the thigh, provoking a memory, which

730
00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:37.800
is what he calls this dish memory
which his house smoked brizil chicken thigh ala

731
00:46:37.840 --> 00:46:45.679
pastor with tortilla's maid with Heirloomasa green
Salca cubes. And that's it. Yeah,

732
00:46:45.800 --> 00:46:50.440
simple thing, I suppose, simple
thing. Except these tortillas they're well

733
00:46:50.480 --> 00:46:53.280
known for, but this time they're
very special because they use this new photoprinter.

734
00:46:53.320 --> 00:46:58.440
They have to put images on the
laser engraver, Yes, puts images

735
00:46:58.440 --> 00:47:00.920
on them, and each chicken thigh
is served with a scissor. The scissor

736
00:47:00.920 --> 00:47:07.400
in it stabbed into the thigh a
beautiful touch. Yes. So that's when

737
00:47:07.519 --> 00:47:09.519
we are revealed to see what the
pictures are. And at first we see

738
00:47:09.519 --> 00:47:15.239
that the regulars are served and it's
pictures of Richard being out with different women.

739
00:47:15.920 --> 00:47:20.280
The Lillian and her assistant are served
pictures of restaurants that close because of

740
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:24.000
her reviews. We also see the
tech bros are served pictures on their tortillas

741
00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:29.199
that show fraud and embezzlement through the
restaurant. Yeah, it's just straight up

742
00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:34.159
photos of financial records, financial statement
where they've been making invoices that aren't real.

743
00:47:34.280 --> 00:47:36.880
Yeah, and Tyler has served pictures
of him taking pictures of the food.

744
00:47:36.880 --> 00:47:37.880
Because that's one thing that Slowic says
that I forgot to mention in the

745
00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:40.880
beginning of the night, is that
they don't any photos, no photos,

746
00:47:40.880 --> 00:47:45.199
and he can't help himself, cannot
help himself. So also confirms what they

747
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:46.760
are as the tech bros caller over
and she's like, that's a tortilla,

748
00:47:46.880 --> 00:47:51.400
and it goes into the bas that's
my favorite. That's a tortilla. Yeah,

749
00:47:51.480 --> 00:47:54.519
she does the thing tartilla, and
she's like, and this is actually

750
00:47:54.519 --> 00:47:59.639
one showing that you guys have committed
fraud and embezzlement through the restaurant, making

751
00:47:59.679 --> 00:48:05.280
false, false invoices. So yeah, filing paying fake invoices. Yeah,

752
00:48:05.320 --> 00:48:07.199
and so the tech bros Are like, well, how the hell they get

753
00:48:07.199 --> 00:48:08.360
this? It's not good and he's
like, well, they can't show us

754
00:48:08.400 --> 00:48:13.079
this because them showing us this would
convict Doug Verrick, who's the restaurant owner.

755
00:48:13.079 --> 00:48:15.639
We'll get to him later. Yeah. So Tyler scolds Margo for wanting

756
00:48:15.679 --> 00:48:17.320
to send the food back because she's
like, you know, well, they

757
00:48:17.320 --> 00:48:20.639
can't like take your picture without you
know, telling you, so you know,

758
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:22.679
you take your picture without your consents. So she's like, excuse me,

759
00:48:22.679 --> 00:48:25.440
and he, which is so stupid, he's in the restaurant ahead.

760
00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:29.800
He fucking scolds her like a child. Oh yeah, and she's like,

761
00:48:29.840 --> 00:48:31.239
you know, did you just like
snap at me? That's her date,

762
00:48:31.519 --> 00:48:35.679
her dates scolding her like a child, And that's when she gets up to

763
00:48:35.679 --> 00:48:37.440
go to the bathroom and Elsa stops
her before entering one of the doors.

764
00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:38.920
At the end of the restaurant and
she's like, you know, where's the

765
00:48:38.920 --> 00:48:42.679
bathroom and she shows her the right
door. Margo asked, what's behind this

766
00:48:42.760 --> 00:48:47.239
door and she says something very special. Aw So in the bathroom, Margo

767
00:48:47.280 --> 00:48:51.239
sees a man outside carrying angel wings
towards the water, which we'll get to

768
00:48:51.280 --> 00:48:53.000
in a second as well, and
she lights up another cigarette as chef's slow

769
00:48:53.039 --> 00:48:57.000
It comes in asking why she hasn't
eaten any of the food, and he

770
00:48:57.280 --> 00:48:58.960
she asks, you know, why
do you care? And slow It says

771
00:48:59.000 --> 00:49:01.360
he takes it very cigaret seriously and
this wounds him. He cornered her in

772
00:49:01.440 --> 00:49:06.639
the can. Yeah It comes in
the bathroom and Margo states that she's not

773
00:49:06.719 --> 00:49:12.719
very hungry hungry slowic ass she was
very hungry hunky Slok asked her who who

774
00:49:12.760 --> 00:49:15.360
she is and she says Margo Mills
and born in Grand Island to bratt Or

775
00:49:15.480 --> 00:49:19.519
from Great Island, Nebraska. Sloak
isn't convinced, asking who she really is,

776
00:49:19.559 --> 00:49:22.159
adding she shouldn't be here today,
and Margo tells him to get the

777
00:49:22.159 --> 00:49:24.320
fuck out of her way. Well, I mean, you know, she

778
00:49:24.639 --> 00:49:28.960
was a lot kinder to someone following
her into the can than that would be

779
00:49:29.320 --> 00:49:30.719
so. Then the fourth course is
served and we see the chefs roll out

780
00:49:30.760 --> 00:49:34.920
of white tarp as they begin to
decorate it with garnish, and slowg introduces

781
00:49:34.960 --> 00:49:37.440
the course, but the tech brothers
interrupt him and SLOWK you know. They're

782
00:49:37.480 --> 00:49:38.880
like, you know what's going on, and they're like, you know,

783
00:49:39.119 --> 00:49:44.199
can I please finish my demonstration first, so that he introduces chef Jeremy Loudon,

784
00:49:44.400 --> 00:49:46.320
who created the next dish, called
the Mess, and he explains how

785
00:49:46.360 --> 00:49:50.400
Jeremy wrote him a letter to come
work at Hawthorne, adding that he's talented,

786
00:49:50.519 --> 00:49:53.440
he's good, but he's not great
and he'll never be great. Jeremy

787
00:49:53.440 --> 00:49:58.000
confirms this as Slow continues that the
pressure got to him and that there was

788
00:49:58.039 --> 00:49:59.719
no way for him to avoid the
Mess, no way for him to be

789
00:49:59.719 --> 00:50:01.800
perfect. He asked Jeremy if he
wants his life, and Jeremy states no,

790
00:50:02.159 --> 00:50:06.599
Slokton kisses him on the cheek.
He doesn't. This is a point

791
00:50:06.639 --> 00:50:09.400
that I think is super important.
He asks him, do you want my

792
00:50:09.599 --> 00:50:14.519
life? And he's like, not
my success, not my talent, my

793
00:50:14.800 --> 00:50:16.280
life, what I am and what
I do? Yeah, and he's like

794
00:50:16.400 --> 00:50:22.679
no, no, And I love
that that moment because there is a so

795
00:50:22.840 --> 00:50:27.199
as a as a not to brag, but as a person who's had kind

796
00:50:27.199 --> 00:50:30.559
of sort of their dream job for
almost a decade, yeah, uh,

797
00:50:30.960 --> 00:50:34.320
kind of sort of, because I
mean I could talk for hours about you

798
00:50:34.360 --> 00:50:38.440
know how unpleasant and challenging it has
been just this week. But but you

799
00:50:38.480 --> 00:50:45.400
love what you do. You never
work it down. Your life's just just

800
00:50:45.400 --> 00:50:50.119
just freaking stabbing in your thigh with
the record I do because it's a total

801
00:50:50.159 --> 00:50:53.079
piece of fucking lie continue, it's
a piece of life. So no,

802
00:50:53.199 --> 00:50:58.880
But that being said, there was
a fear when I first started doing what

803
00:50:59.039 --> 00:51:00.920
I was passionate about for a living. I was like, oh my god,

804
00:51:01.039 --> 00:51:06.519
once I get successful enough, what
if I don't like it? Yeah?

805
00:51:06.519 --> 00:51:08.039
What if I get the things I've
always wanted? And then I'm like,

806
00:51:08.039 --> 00:51:10.559
oh, this sucks. And I
still have that fear of renow.

807
00:51:10.559 --> 00:51:14.280
And then because some days that I
make for those who don't know, I

808
00:51:14.320 --> 00:51:17.559
make movies for a living. I
produce and direct and distribute films. And

809
00:51:19.880 --> 00:51:22.320
it's a super hard, super competitive
business. You have to be very creative,

810
00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:27.960
you have to be totally ready for
famine versus feast. Feast is rare,

811
00:51:28.679 --> 00:51:31.159
real rare since COVID H. So
you have to be ready for all

812
00:51:31.199 --> 00:51:38.239
of that. And there are totally
days where I'm like, man, I

813
00:51:38.440 --> 00:51:43.440
was this the right cause? Uh, there's a joke I say to myself

814
00:51:43.480 --> 00:51:45.039
all the time, which is I
should have bought the damn juicers. Have

815
00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:47.639
I told you that story? I
don't want to tell the long story of

816
00:51:47.679 --> 00:51:51.000
it. Maybe some other show I
will, but we've already been yeat John.

817
00:51:51.079 --> 00:51:54.480
But at one point in my life
I had a choice between either going

818
00:51:54.519 --> 00:52:00.079
back to Ohio and trying to keep
doing film, or staying in Jersey and

819
00:52:00.159 --> 00:52:04.360
selling juicers on a boardwalk. I
had. I had access to the boardwalk.

820
00:52:04.639 --> 00:52:07.400
The guy who was running that business
was going to quit. He was

821
00:52:07.440 --> 00:52:09.440
going to sell me all his juicies. And all I had to do was

822
00:52:09.480 --> 00:52:13.199
sell my car and I could buy
the juicies, damn. And then I'd

823
00:52:13.199 --> 00:52:15.000
be living on a boardwalk so I
could walk to work and stuff. And

824
00:52:15.079 --> 00:52:19.760
I really thought about it. Yeah, and I came closer than you might

825
00:52:19.800 --> 00:52:22.400
think to doing it. I believe
it. So sometimes when I'm fed up

826
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:28.840
with work, or when I'm stuck
fucking redlining a contract for a whole goddamn

827
00:52:28.840 --> 00:52:34.400
afternoon, because because some companies are
so old school, They're like, here's

828
00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:37.840
our forty seven page contract, and
I'm like, I did business with a

829
00:52:37.840 --> 00:52:42.519
bigger company than you last week and
it was eleven pages. Yeah, but

830
00:52:42.559 --> 00:52:45.880
it's just is what it is.
You have to sit there and redline it.

831
00:52:45.199 --> 00:52:49.000
I will like in my head or
sometimes out loud, I'll just go

832
00:52:49.119 --> 00:52:52.000
should have shows the juice users.
So anyway, not being said, I

833
00:52:52.039 --> 00:52:57.559
really identified with Jeremy's plight. Yeah, because it is scary. To want

834
00:52:57.599 --> 00:53:01.440
to be the best is honestly kind
of a damning thing. That's something I'm

835
00:53:01.519 --> 00:53:07.480
very proud that I've never I've never
thought about being the best. I don't

836
00:53:07.519 --> 00:53:09.320
care, you know, Like no, I believe that you have to know

837
00:53:09.400 --> 00:53:14.760
thyself. And I never even as
a little boy, when I had all

838
00:53:14.800 --> 00:53:16.719
the dreams in the world all I've
ever wanted in life. I wanted to

839
00:53:16.760 --> 00:53:21.280
be a pro wrestler and I wanted
to be a movie director. I never

840
00:53:21.440 --> 00:53:23.119
wanted to be the best at either
of those things. I want to do

841
00:53:23.159 --> 00:53:25.960
them. I just wanted to do
them. Granted, maybe some of that

842
00:53:27.000 --> 00:53:30.280
comes from growing up at poverty,
whatever, but I just was like,

843
00:53:30.480 --> 00:53:31.800
man, wouldn't be cool. If
I could do that and not like live

844
00:53:31.840 --> 00:53:36.519
in a crack house, that was
my goal. That's fair. So anyway,

845
00:53:36.800 --> 00:53:40.000
Jeremy said, are you sure that
wasn't a haunted house. I mean

846
00:53:40.119 --> 00:53:45.320
it's both someone in boys. It's
scary in here, welcome to hell.

847
00:53:46.639 --> 00:53:52.599
So Jeremy has handed a gun then
and chef introduces him and the mess,

848
00:53:52.639 --> 00:53:54.440
and Jeremy blows his brains out in
front of everybody, and they put a

849
00:53:54.440 --> 00:53:58.639
tarp up behind him, so it
makes like a nice artistic well they have

850
00:53:58.880 --> 00:54:01.760
a plastic behind but the tarp under
his body and so he'll fall down there

851
00:54:01.760 --> 00:54:06.159
and bleed out. And they had
like decorated with flowers. Then they roll

852
00:54:06.199 --> 00:54:10.800
it up. Everybody's freaking out.
But they're so jaded, and it's like

853
00:54:10.840 --> 00:54:21.079
a combo of the people there are
so jaded but also so fucking spoiled and

854
00:54:21.639 --> 00:54:23.880
entitled, although I don't know if
you can call someone entitled to pay twelve

855
00:54:23.920 --> 00:54:28.679
fifty ahead to go to a restaurant. I mean they paid, but they're

856
00:54:28.760 --> 00:54:34.199
so like jaded and expecting so much
that they're scared for a second, and

857
00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:37.039
then they're immediately like, well,
this has got to be and it's got

858
00:54:37.039 --> 00:54:38.440
to be part of this. Yeah, that Lilian's the first of the food

859
00:54:38.480 --> 00:54:40.079
creek is the first one to say, oh, you know, it's just

860
00:54:40.119 --> 00:54:44.000
theater. They're such good actors and
it's all part of the menu. As

861
00:54:44.039 --> 00:54:47.000
they are served the mess, which
is she became convinced that her and her

862
00:54:47.000 --> 00:54:51.360
friend were the only not actors.
That comes later. Oh okay, sorry,

863
00:54:51.360 --> 00:54:53.519
I just remember that. That is
what she says. The mess,

864
00:54:53.679 --> 00:54:59.960
which is a pressure cooked vegetables of
roasted filet potato. Is it can can

865
00:55:00.119 --> 00:55:05.239
feet or comb feet comfeet your French, you should get this beef beef jewis

866
00:55:05.440 --> 00:55:07.800
and a bone marrow. And then
and then it says rest in peace.

867
00:55:07.880 --> 00:55:13.360
Jeremy Loud. You Dave would try
saying, jo you, oh you heard

868
00:55:13.360 --> 00:55:17.199
that everybody. Dave took a side
on Israel and Palestine. Ah ah ah.

869
00:55:17.440 --> 00:55:21.199
He's like, please stop, please
stop. No one is dining in

870
00:55:21.239 --> 00:55:24.880
it until slow A shouts eat,
and then everybody starts digging into it.

871
00:55:24.880 --> 00:55:28.599
The regulars go to leave, and
Elsa stops them, and she's like,

872
00:55:28.639 --> 00:55:30.320
you know, we're gonna take the
boat out of here, and she's like,

873
00:55:30.320 --> 00:55:30.639
well, there's no boat to leave
on. He's like, well,

874
00:55:30.679 --> 00:55:32.559
then I'll call a helicopter and she's
like, what, it's gonna be hard

875
00:55:32.559 --> 00:55:35.559
with no phone service. And he's
like, don't worry, honey, I'll

876
00:55:35.599 --> 00:55:37.320
handle this. And she's like left
hand or right hand and he's like what

877
00:55:37.400 --> 00:55:39.760
and she's like, which hand will
you handle this with? And she's like,

878
00:55:39.800 --> 00:55:43.719
would you like us to decide?
Right hand ring finger, left hand

879
00:55:43.800 --> 00:55:46.559
or left hand ring finger? So
we see the chef come out and shop

880
00:55:46.760 --> 00:55:52.679
Richard's ring finger right off, and
everybody for chef the chef. Yeah,

881
00:55:52.719 --> 00:55:55.239
and Legazamo admits that he doesn't know
Sloank at this point because that was one

882
00:55:55.239 --> 00:56:01.760
thing too. Yeah, And Lilian
is also convinced that the whole thing is

883
00:56:01.760 --> 00:56:07.239
for their benefit. Now it was
after the finger chops that she's completely like,

884
00:56:07.239 --> 00:56:08.480
oh, they're all actors, because
she turns the lake withs Amo goes

885
00:56:08.880 --> 00:56:12.840
excellent acting and he goes, what
the fuck are you talking about, lady?

886
00:56:12.880 --> 00:56:15.320
I'm my lady. So Chef's Lowick
summons Margaret to the kitchen and he

887
00:56:15.360 --> 00:56:19.239
asked her again who she is,
adding that he served many margos and she

888
00:56:19.360 --> 00:56:22.400
is no Margo. He has that
the menu has been painstakingly planned and he

889
00:56:22.400 --> 00:56:24.000
needs to figure out where to sit
her with them or with the guests,

890
00:56:24.039 --> 00:56:27.079
and Margo says, well, if
I choose right, do I get to

891
00:56:27.079 --> 00:56:29.880
live? And he's like, oh
no, no, everyone's dying. That's

892
00:56:29.920 --> 00:56:32.360
that's how the menus perfected. So
he gives her fifteen minutes to decide before

893
00:56:32.400 --> 00:56:35.760
sending her back to receipt, and
he tells the chefs that he's playing in

894
00:56:35.800 --> 00:56:37.440
five and that he loves them all, and he does so by going I

895
00:56:37.480 --> 00:56:39.880
love you and they go, we
love your too, Chef. Yeah,

896
00:56:39.880 --> 00:56:45.159
it's very romantic, very romantic.
So Margaret returns the table slapping Tyler,

897
00:56:45.760 --> 00:56:47.840
and he's upset because he's thinking that
she got a crash course in the kitchen

898
00:56:47.920 --> 00:56:50.719
or tasted something that he didn't get
the taste. Yeah, and then she

899
00:56:50.760 --> 00:56:55.119
got some kind of a slap vegetable
or protein. He's such a dick.

900
00:56:55.400 --> 00:56:59.239
Oh, he think, yeah,
because he thinks she got us a spy.

901
00:56:59.320 --> 00:57:01.079
What's next? Yeah, yeah,
no. So that's when we're introduced

902
00:57:01.119 --> 00:57:06.320
to the Palate Cleanser, which is
wild Bergamont and Clover team, and Leguizamo

903
00:57:06.360 --> 00:57:08.199
is trying to inspire the Tech brothers
to break to basically, you know,

904
00:57:08.280 --> 00:57:12.320
break a code and go and take
over the kidchen. Well, yeah,

905
00:57:12.559 --> 00:57:15.719
his attitude, which is honestly not
a bad thought. Yeah, I guess

906
00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:20.840
is that there that with him,
there's four able bodied guys. Yeah,

907
00:57:20.880 --> 00:57:22.679
so if they all the moment they
get their silverware, just go for it.

908
00:57:22.800 --> 00:57:25.360
Yeah, maybe they could make a
fight out. Oh and I just

909
00:57:25.400 --> 00:57:29.840
realized I forgot what Leguizamo was served. He was served on his tortilla.

910
00:57:29.960 --> 00:57:32.559
One of his old movies called Calling
Doctor Sunshine. Yeah, Calling Doctor Sunshine,

911
00:57:32.599 --> 00:57:36.239
which comes up more. It was
a bomb from what That's all he

912
00:57:36.280 --> 00:57:37.760
basically says, is that we said. He said it was like a bad

913
00:57:37.840 --> 00:57:42.280
script, great vacation, he said, great experience, experience. Yea,

914
00:57:42.320 --> 00:57:45.760
he said like bad bad script,
bad role or bad script, stupid role,

915
00:57:45.800 --> 00:57:49.000
greater experience. Yeah. So that's
when he tells them, you know,

916
00:57:49.000 --> 00:57:51.079
when we come back, we can
take the knives and we can get

917
00:57:51.119 --> 00:57:52.639
them all, like that's what I
did in this action movie. So the

918
00:57:53.159 --> 00:57:55.800
chef's come back over and that's when
one of the tech brothers goes to try

919
00:57:55.840 --> 00:57:59.840
and break a window with a chair, but the window does not break it

920
00:57:59.880 --> 00:58:01.280
all, and Helson comes over and
she's like, let me help you back

921
00:58:01.280 --> 00:58:06.079
to your table. So Sloak then
explains the palate cleanser and asking if there's

922
00:58:06.079 --> 00:58:08.679
any questions about him or Hawthorne or
tonight's experience, and that's when Lego Zama

923
00:58:08.679 --> 00:58:12.599
asked about the evening and Slowik tells
him that this is all due to their

924
00:58:12.639 --> 00:58:15.320
consequences. They all should know why
they're here, yeah, pointing out how

925
00:58:15.320 --> 00:58:20.079
Lilian's ego was fed when he when
he said her the imitation, and how

926
00:58:20.480 --> 00:58:22.639
she has boosted the egos of others
as well. Regulars. He goes to

927
00:58:22.639 --> 00:58:25.719
ask how many times they've come here? And I asked him if they know

928
00:58:25.760 --> 00:58:29.519
how many times they come here?
Eleven times they've been at this restaurant,

929
00:58:29.880 --> 00:58:32.800
Well, they know that he's like
six, six, eleven, eleven times

930
00:58:34.039 --> 00:58:37.159
and he can't name a single dish. He's the asking to name a single

931
00:58:37.199 --> 00:58:38.719
dish, and the wife's like,
God, God, God God, and

932
00:58:38.719 --> 00:58:42.800
he's like, it wasn't cod,
you fucking donkey. It was halib it

933
00:58:43.119 --> 00:58:47.440
rare spotted Halibit just for the halibit, just for the haliban Ha. So

934
00:58:47.519 --> 00:58:52.360
he continues that he's been trying to
satisfy clientele who cannot be satisfied, and

935
00:58:52.360 --> 00:58:53.840
that's when the tech brothers bring up
dud Verick like they're like, you know,

936
00:58:53.880 --> 00:58:55.960
well you say this is your restaurant, it's not your restaurant. He's

937
00:58:55.960 --> 00:58:59.519
like, oh no, you're absolutely
right. Doug Verick is the owner.

938
00:58:59.559 --> 00:59:01.480
He's the one that helped me out
with this. But tonight I own Doug

939
00:59:01.559 --> 00:59:07.039
Varick. Yeah, And that's when
he reveals Yes and a man because they

940
00:59:07.039 --> 00:59:12.199
call he's an angel investor. That's
important, Yes, because they have him

941
00:59:12.320 --> 00:59:17.639
tied to a to a ratchet system
being rised up into the sky with angel

942
00:59:17.639 --> 00:59:21.920
wings on that Marcos all he got
carrying in the previews. Yeah. And

943
00:59:21.960 --> 00:59:24.400
then which which is important because that
tells you that, like every second there's

944
00:59:24.440 --> 00:59:28.159
prep going on. Yeah. So
when she's in the bathroom, she sees

945
00:59:28.199 --> 00:59:30.880
somebody taking those wings out, just
like when you're walking through the kitchen people

946
00:59:30.880 --> 00:59:34.199
are cutting carrots. It's all the
same thing. It's all part of that

947
00:59:34.239 --> 00:59:37.760
experience. It's all part of the
kitchen. And that's so he raises up

948
00:59:37.800 --> 00:59:40.519
and then they drop him down in
the guys and then drown him. Well,

949
00:59:40.519 --> 00:59:44.039
the best thing is the reason that
he's drowning is because I mean,

950
00:59:44.119 --> 00:59:45.840
obviously, because he wants to get
his revenge. But he says, you

951
00:59:45.840 --> 00:59:50.199
know, well, he kepts you
over during open during COVID, and he's

952
00:59:50.199 --> 00:59:52.920
like, yeah, he did,
but he also would regularly and make changes

953
00:59:52.920 --> 00:59:58.239
to the menu, ask for substitutions, and there are no substitutions. So

954
00:59:58.360 --> 01:00:00.079
lowers him in the water and he's
like, do you hear that? That's

955
01:00:00.119 --> 01:00:02.880
the sound of be being free?
And the one thing I love about that

956
01:00:02.920 --> 01:00:07.320
scene is fucking Tyler his eyes closed
listening as chef is like, do you

957
01:00:07.360 --> 01:00:10.159
hear that? Oh? Yeah,
he's so he's taking it all in.

958
01:00:13.239 --> 01:00:23.440
Do you even move? He will
be right back. Welcome back to do

959
01:00:23.639 --> 01:00:30.679
you even movie? So the timer
goes off and now it's time for Margo

960
01:00:30.719 --> 01:00:34.159
to speak with Slocan again in his
office, and he asked her if she's

961
01:00:34.159 --> 01:00:36.079
made up her mind. She has
no answer for him, and that's when

962
01:00:36.079 --> 01:00:37.880
he asked, how does she know
Richard? He goes, you know,

963
01:00:37.880 --> 01:00:38.840
I've seen you two looking at each
other. You know, how do you

964
01:00:38.880 --> 01:00:43.840
know her? And that's when we
find out that Margo is a oh I

965
01:00:43.880 --> 01:00:49.639
can't think of the word escortre escort, and that in this case of particular,

966
01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:52.440
Richard was a guy that picked her
up and had her go back with

967
01:00:52.519 --> 01:00:54.599
him, and she was requested to
watch him jerk off and look into his

968
01:00:54.639 --> 01:01:00.639
eyes while he did so, and
tell him that he's well, tell him

969
01:01:00.639 --> 01:01:01.679
good things, agree with him.
That was I agree with him. And

970
01:01:01.679 --> 01:01:05.920
then eventually she mentions that he had
her say he was a good dad.

971
01:01:05.960 --> 01:01:08.840
He was a good dad. Oh, and I love that Sloak is like,

972
01:01:08.880 --> 01:01:12.920
oh, romantic. Oh he's a
romantic. But I don't even think

973
01:01:12.960 --> 01:01:14.960
he's being funny. No, I
think he meant it. He was just

974
01:01:15.000 --> 01:01:17.119
like, oh, he's a romantic. So Slog asked if she enjoys providing

975
01:01:17.159 --> 01:01:20.800
the services, and she says she
used to. So Margo asked him the

976
01:01:20.840 --> 01:01:22.440
same, and Slok says that he
used to as well, but he hasn't

977
01:01:22.440 --> 01:01:25.400
had a desire to cook in ages
which to keep that in mind, so

978
01:01:25.440 --> 01:01:29.440
he invites Margo to accompany him as
they return to the dining room, requesting

979
01:01:29.480 --> 01:01:32.199
everyone to join him out in the
evening air and outside, Slog introduces Sue

980
01:01:32.280 --> 01:01:37.199
chef Catherine Keller, and she explains
that three years ago, Chef Sloac tried

981
01:01:37.199 --> 01:01:39.239
to fuck her. She refused.
He tried again and again, and she

982
01:01:39.320 --> 01:01:42.920
kept refusing him, even to the
point that he didn't speak to her for

983
01:01:42.960 --> 01:01:45.039
eight months, but he kept her
on the team because he can do that.

984
01:01:45.920 --> 01:01:49.440
Yeah, because he's able to do
that. Yeah. And that's when

985
01:01:49.440 --> 01:01:52.920
she introduces the next course, Man's
Folly, before stabbing him in the thigh

986
01:01:52.920 --> 01:01:54.800
with scissords. She takes the blood
off his thigh, wipes it across his

987
01:01:55.159 --> 01:01:59.920
chef's jacket, and Slowak explains that
the male diners now can try to escape.

988
01:02:00.039 --> 01:02:01.719
They're gonna have a forty five second
head start, just like a man.

989
01:02:02.400 --> 01:02:06.159
You forgot the part where he apologizes
to her. Oh, he says,

990
01:02:06.159 --> 01:02:07.320
I'm sorry. Yeah. Yeah,
yeah, she does. She stabs

991
01:02:07.360 --> 01:02:09.559
and does it and he says,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Yeah.

992
01:02:09.639 --> 01:02:13.679
So he explains the diner the male
diners now have a forty five second head

993
01:02:13.719 --> 01:02:15.960
start to try and escape. Of
course, one takes off running and he

994
01:02:16.000 --> 01:02:19.639
goes, okay, that time starts
now, so they all go running,

995
01:02:19.639 --> 01:02:22.679
and that's when Chef Catherine invites the
women back inside of the restaurant. The

996
01:02:22.719 --> 01:02:25.199
timer sounds and all the chefs go
off to find the men. So that's

997
01:02:25.199 --> 01:02:30.679
when we are introduced to the Man's
Folly actual dish, which is dungus crab

998
01:02:30.960 --> 01:02:35.400
fermented yogurt wee du dunganess. Excuse
me, I don't know these terms.

999
01:02:35.519 --> 01:02:40.119
Dungus crab just sounds real appetizing,
dried sea lettuce, and uimbashi kelp.

1000
01:02:42.960 --> 01:02:45.000
So inside, the ladies enjoy a
dishes. Liian tries to win over shes

1001
01:02:45.039 --> 01:02:47.119
Catherine and she's like, you know, this is so good, you know.

1002
01:02:47.440 --> 01:02:50.840
And Catherine's like, you know,
a long time ago that would have

1003
01:02:50.880 --> 01:02:52.360
meant something to me, and she
starts crying, and that's when all the

1004
01:02:52.360 --> 01:02:54.800
women start like, oh no,
it's so good. Well, and she

1005
01:02:54.840 --> 01:02:57.840
even says like you should have your
own place. I can help you with

1006
01:02:57.880 --> 01:03:00.719
that, and she's like, oh
no, no, no. The everyone

1007
01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:05.840
dying was yeah. So Anne asked
Margot how does she know Richard and she

1008
01:03:05.880 --> 01:03:07.519
confirms that she does, and that's
when we see Anne just shoot down her

1009
01:03:07.519 --> 01:03:10.440
wine. The assistant ask if they're
all really dying. That's when Catherine confirms

1010
01:03:10.440 --> 01:03:14.599
that start starting the menu or ending
the menu with them dying was her idea

1011
01:03:14.639 --> 01:03:17.800
and she's really proud of it.
So slowly, slowly, all the men

1012
01:03:17.800 --> 01:03:21.519
are caught, minus Phil, who
is the assistant of Lilian, and he's

1013
01:03:21.559 --> 01:03:23.000
hiding in a chicken coop and he's
given a special bite for the last guest

1014
01:03:23.119 --> 01:03:25.760
being caught, which is an ascid
egg, a special bite for the last

1015
01:03:25.760 --> 01:03:30.880
guest to be caught, which is
egg cram, frushaw and maple man,

1016
01:03:30.039 --> 01:03:34.679
you are not a fine dining air, No I'm not. Or a French

1017
01:03:34.679 --> 01:03:37.519
speaker, No I'm not well.
Enjoy that. That's the only compliment you'll

1018
01:03:37.559 --> 01:03:44.320
get your entire life from me inside
speaker, and Margo admits her name is

1019
01:03:44.360 --> 01:03:46.440
actually Aaron and she's from Massachusetts.
As the men return, and Tyler,

1020
01:03:46.480 --> 01:03:50.760
being the dick that he is,
goes and grabs the men's folly dish to

1021
01:03:50.800 --> 01:03:53.079
try and get it, and that's
when we see that Richard also realizes that

1022
01:03:53.119 --> 01:03:57.000
Margot and Ann have talked, and
he's like, oh no, oh no,

1023
01:03:57.800 --> 01:04:00.159
So slow E states the menu cannot
resume until they deal with the unresolved

1024
01:04:00.159 --> 01:04:04.519
matter, going to Tyler and asking
why is he here, exposing that Tyler

1025
01:04:04.639 --> 01:04:09.320
knew all of the evening's events ahead
of time, eight months ahead of time,

1026
01:04:09.599 --> 01:04:13.840
also revealing that he brought Margo because
the other date fell through and they

1027
01:04:13.880 --> 01:04:16.519
don't have seating for just one.
And Margo gets back because now she's like,

1028
01:04:16.559 --> 01:04:20.199
you invited me to I would die. You knew that I was gonna

1029
01:04:20.199 --> 01:04:25.199
friaking die. So she starts attacking
him, and that's when Chef is impressed

1030
01:04:25.199 --> 01:04:28.000
by Tyler stating that he's a cook, and since he's a cook, he

1031
01:04:28.079 --> 01:04:31.039
belongs in the kitchen because he's clearly
a foodie. He's clearly like, studied

1032
01:04:31.199 --> 01:04:35.079
all of these these styles and techniques. He's fascinated by food. So he

1033
01:04:35.119 --> 01:04:39.440
presents them with the chef's jacket and
slowan personalizes it by writing his name on

1034
01:04:39.480 --> 01:04:43.039
it and marker, and that's what
he tells Tyler to cook, and Elsa

1035
01:04:43.039 --> 01:04:46.199
summons everyone into the kitchen for a
demonstration and Tyler requests leaks, shallots,

1036
01:04:46.559 --> 01:04:49.599
butter lamb. But we got to
back up because one of the things is

1037
01:04:49.599 --> 01:04:54.360
he's trying to get these out as
a chef's like asking him for him At

1038
01:04:54.360 --> 01:04:56.920
one point, he's like, shit, would you like some shit? You

1039
01:04:56.960 --> 01:04:59.960
like some shit? Shit? Please? So he cooks a dish showing their

1040
01:05:00.360 --> 01:05:01.840
showing nerves. He's nervous the entire
time because at one point he's chopping.

1041
01:05:01.840 --> 01:05:04.119
He's like, oh, a new
chopping technique I'm not familiar with. Yeah,

1042
01:05:04.159 --> 01:05:08.400
he's just messily chopping yep, everything, So he starves it to Slowik,

1043
01:05:08.400 --> 01:05:11.519
who acts impressed. He takes a
bite and he's like, wow,

1044
01:05:11.679 --> 01:05:15.559
I'm I'm you know, I'm impressed
to say it's quite bad, and that's

1045
01:05:15.599 --> 01:05:19.280
when Tyler's bullshit is shown on screen, which is under cook lamb, an

1046
01:05:19.360 --> 01:05:23.320
edible shallot, leak, butter,
sauce, and utter lack of cohesion.

1047
01:05:24.039 --> 01:05:27.599
Harsh and it is harsh. It's
actually kind of sad to see something.

1048
01:05:27.639 --> 01:05:30.119
He just go like, oh,
you care about one thing, Well,

1049
01:05:30.119 --> 01:05:31.519
fuck you, and then he tells
him that he's the mystery. He's why

1050
01:05:31.519 --> 01:05:34.119
the mystery has been drained from their
art, before whispering something in his ear

1051
01:05:34.159 --> 01:05:36.719
that we don't hear, and that's
when Tyler breaks down, removing his chef

1052
01:05:36.800 --> 01:05:41.400
jacket and walking off into the back. Slow Sure, he's fine, it's

1053
01:05:41.440 --> 01:05:43.920
gonna be fine. Yeah, he's
probably just hanging around somewhere. Yeah,

1054
01:05:44.000 --> 01:05:46.559
just hanging out. Slowik apologizes to
everyone for the demonstration, as it wasn't

1055
01:05:46.559 --> 01:05:49.079
part of the menu, and he
has Margo come with him, telling her

1056
01:05:49.119 --> 01:05:51.920
that they need to prepare for the
dessert and they need a large barrel that

1057
01:05:51.960 --> 01:05:55.800
Elsa forgot and asking her to retrieve
it. From the smokehouse, which she

1058
01:05:55.840 --> 01:05:58.760
saw earlier on the tour. Elsa
gives her the key and Margo goes out,

1059
01:05:58.760 --> 01:06:01.079
catching sight of Tyler, who's himself
in the back kitchen. So you

1060
01:06:01.119 --> 01:06:06.559
know why Tyler couldn't cook, Why
he has no sense of other people.

1061
01:06:06.679 --> 01:06:13.159
No, he's he's entirely selfish.
He has no desire to make others happy.

1062
01:06:13.239 --> 01:06:15.960
No, it's all about him,
because that's the one thing I picked

1063
01:06:15.000 --> 01:06:18.400
up on this viewing is that he
is. He's telling everybody in regards to

1064
01:06:18.400 --> 01:06:21.360
Margo for the most part of what
he knows about the dish, all the

1065
01:06:21.440 --> 01:06:26.199
expertise about it and everything. But
again, he can't do anything even when

1066
01:06:26.239 --> 01:06:28.800
he's asked to. Well, he
can't. But I really think that the

1067
01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:31.320
point of that is because he just
has no selflessness in him at all.

1068
01:06:31.519 --> 01:06:35.639
He has no desire to make anyone
happy other than himself. So of course,

1069
01:06:35.760 --> 01:06:39.599
if you don't, I mean I, like I said, I love

1070
01:06:39.639 --> 01:06:45.800
to cook. Yeah, and it
takes a degree of love and joy to

1071
01:06:45.920 --> 01:06:48.519
cook, especially when you're cooking something
complex, when you know that you could

1072
01:06:48.519 --> 01:06:53.039
literally just fucking make a box of
macaroni and cheese, but you're with you

1073
01:06:53.079 --> 01:06:56.920
know, a loved one, your
your you know, girlfriend, a friend

1074
01:06:57.280 --> 01:07:00.559
like I cooked. I cooked the
latcause at a satyr a couple of weeks

1075
01:07:00.599 --> 01:07:03.559
back, and I love doing it, and but it is messy and unpleasant.

1076
01:07:03.880 --> 01:07:10.679
I I refuse to use the grading
methods, uh, non traditional grading

1077
01:07:10.679 --> 01:07:14.719
methods on the on the onions.
Yeah. So I'm just like tears and

1078
01:07:14.800 --> 01:07:16.320
burning face because it's like, no, this is how I was taught.

1079
01:07:16.599 --> 01:07:18.960
I want to do it the way
I the family way. I've got it.

1080
01:07:19.000 --> 01:07:20.760
And I've got to give you props
because I know I've mentioned on the

1081
01:07:20.760 --> 01:07:24.639
show before in this episode two,
but like, you're a really good chef,

1082
01:07:24.800 --> 01:07:27.079
thank you. W I'm not a
chef, I'm a cook cook.

1083
01:07:27.199 --> 01:07:30.960
Yeah, you're a whole other.
Still, I still really wish that you

1084
01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:33.320
would make that ghost chili ramen again. That was so I will soon.

1085
01:07:33.480 --> 01:07:38.920
I will tell you what. When
winter starts, you ask for it,

1086
01:07:38.960 --> 01:07:42.559
will go make it happen. Is
winter coming? I don't know anymore?

1087
01:07:43.280 --> 01:07:45.400
But but but all I'm saying is
that that you have to have a desire

1088
01:07:45.440 --> 01:07:49.159
to make another person happy to cook
a great meal, absolutely, and it

1089
01:07:49.280 --> 01:07:54.400
is not always easy. Uh you
have to use butter, That's it.

1090
01:07:54.760 --> 01:07:57.880
That's that's the whole trick. Just
use butter and everyone will love it.

1091
01:07:57.920 --> 01:08:00.239
So Slow goes to introduce the next
dish, but is stuffy like Guzamo asking

1092
01:08:00.280 --> 01:08:03.960
you know, why is he being
punished, and Slow explains he went to

1093
01:08:03.960 --> 01:08:08.320
see Calling Doctor Sunshine on Sunday,
his only day off, and he didn't

1094
01:08:08.400 --> 01:08:13.920
like the movie. Yeah, that's
it, he says, he saw it

1095
01:08:13.920 --> 01:08:15.760
alone in the cinema, didn't enjoy
it, calling him pitiful artist. And

1096
01:08:15.800 --> 01:08:18.760
La Guazamo asked about his assistant,
and he goes, what school did you

1097
01:08:18.800 --> 01:08:24.439
go to? And she goes,
Brown student loans. Sorry, you're dying

1098
01:08:24.439 --> 01:08:28.159
tonight. Yeah, not one of
us. So Margo reaches the smokehouse,

1099
01:08:28.199 --> 01:08:30.960
but instead goes into Slowak's house,
which they saw earlier on the tour,

1100
01:08:30.079 --> 01:08:35.760
revealing an exact setup like Hawthorne Restaurant
inside his house. So his house is

1101
01:08:35.880 --> 01:08:40.760
a bed and a food or like
a couch and like a few of those

1102
01:08:40.760 --> 01:08:45.279
things, and then just the exact
same kitchen, which is sincerely bizarre.

1103
01:08:45.600 --> 01:08:48.399
I remember the first time seeing that, I was like, oh fuck,

1104
01:08:48.800 --> 01:08:51.600
yeah, it tells you everything you
need to know. He goes to sleep

1105
01:08:51.600 --> 01:08:55.479
every night in front of the exact
same place he works every day, but

1106
01:08:55.600 --> 01:08:58.600
it's I mean, it's different but
the same. It's a very bizarre twist.

1107
01:08:58.640 --> 01:09:00.560
So that's what Elsa catches her in, stating no one is allowed inside

1108
01:09:00.600 --> 01:09:03.439
chef's quarters, adding that she takes
care of the customers so chef can take

1109
01:09:03.479 --> 01:09:06.600
care of the menu. And Margo
questions why would she die for her or

1110
01:09:06.640 --> 01:09:09.600
why would she die for him?
And that's when Elsa says, do you

1111
01:09:09.600 --> 01:09:12.159
think he told me about the barrel? And charges at her with the knife

1112
01:09:12.159 --> 01:09:15.279
and starts attacking her. They fight, which ends up with Elsa stabbed in

1113
01:09:15.279 --> 01:09:18.760
the throat. So Elsa is dead
now in inside Sloak's house, and after

1114
01:09:18.800 --> 01:09:24.439
that, Margo goes to another door
and finds a radio inside. But inside

1115
01:09:24.439 --> 01:09:30.119
before that, she sees all these
pictures and articles of Slovak's previous restaurants,

1116
01:09:30.439 --> 01:09:33.279
including one for Hamburger Howies where he
was the employee of the month in nineteen

1117
01:09:33.319 --> 01:09:38.479
eighty seven, and he has a
big smile one so happy. Yeah,

1118
01:09:38.520 --> 01:09:42.279
and I have a lot to say
about this as we get further in Yeah,

1119
01:09:42.359 --> 01:09:44.279
so there's an interesting part I'll get
to when we get to this.

1120
01:09:44.319 --> 01:09:46.560
You're not interesting, shut up?
So like I said. She also finds

1121
01:09:46.600 --> 01:09:49.079
a radio and tries to call out
on it, and that's when Margo returns

1122
01:09:49.079 --> 01:09:53.119
with the barrel as the tech bro
is getting served a birthday kick, and

1123
01:09:53.159 --> 01:09:55.079
that's when he looks at his buddies
and goes, you told him it was

1124
01:09:55.079 --> 01:09:57.600
my birthday, and the guy was
like, about three hours ago this seemed

1125
01:09:57.600 --> 01:10:00.760
funnier, Yeah, about three hours
ago. This scene pretty funny. So

1126
01:10:00.800 --> 01:10:02.640
slowly tells her to take her seat, and then he states that everything tonight

1127
01:10:02.760 --> 01:10:06.039
is egoless and he is releasing his
pain and that he feels good about it,

1128
01:10:06.079 --> 01:10:10.239
demonstrating that a chef's hands, you
know, can contain heat. He

1129
01:10:10.239 --> 01:10:13.279
puts it over a flame and holds
it there, and that's when suddenly we

1130
01:10:13.319 --> 01:10:15.000
hear the sound of a boat.
So Margo got through to the coast guard.

1131
01:10:15.000 --> 01:10:17.000
Have you ever heard the term chef
hand chef Hans, ye oh yeah,

1132
01:10:17.039 --> 01:10:19.439
it just means that you have like
you're able to handle heat. He

1133
01:10:19.439 --> 01:10:23.920
says that you can carry a blazing
pan to your table, like from the

1134
01:10:23.960 --> 01:10:27.000
oven to the table with no issue. What's yeah, which I mean I've

1135
01:10:27.000 --> 01:10:30.600
seen some people with crazy chef hands. Yeah, So slowly tells her to

1136
01:10:30.640 --> 01:10:32.439
take her seat, and he tells
everybody to start cleaning up the dining room.

1137
01:10:32.600 --> 01:10:35.079
And that's when he also says,
you know, don't bring any attention

1138
01:10:35.119 --> 01:10:38.239
to this. You don't want this
coast guard been to die. But also

1139
01:10:38.760 --> 01:10:41.600
one question you should ask yourself is
why didn't you all try to fight harder?

1140
01:10:42.199 --> 01:10:44.439
There's more of us than there are
review you probably could have won,

1141
01:10:45.199 --> 01:10:48.720
I mean, and that's a classic
horror movie conundrum too. It's like,

1142
01:10:48.760 --> 01:10:51.000
you know, if you're stuck on
the ski lift, do you just jump

1143
01:10:51.239 --> 01:10:55.800
or do you wait until you're weak
to jump? God? The guard walks

1144
01:10:55.840 --> 01:10:59.119
in asking if anybody calls for a
stress order. No one moves, no

1145
01:10:59.159 --> 01:11:01.439
one says anything, and he recognizes
like Gazamo stating that he's a big fan

1146
01:11:01.479 --> 01:11:04.680
and one of his favorite movies is
calling Doctor Sunshine. Yes, and I

1147
01:11:04.720 --> 01:11:10.359
think that that's really important. Oh
you think so too, because I because

1148
01:11:10.359 --> 01:11:13.960
it gives a way that he's that
he may or may not be a part

1149
01:11:13.960 --> 01:11:15.880
of this is what I saw it
as. I think it's because Doctor Sunshine.

1150
01:11:16.279 --> 01:11:18.840
And we'll get into it more in
a second. Is like Wasamo's characters

1151
01:11:18.920 --> 01:11:25.600
cheeseburger? Oh okay, okay,
we'll get back to that yeah, yeah,

1152
01:11:25.680 --> 01:11:28.359
yeah. So then he recognizes like
Wazamo states he's a big fan,

1153
01:11:28.439 --> 01:11:30.039
and of course Slowca is like,
would you like an autograph? So leg

1154
01:11:30.079 --> 01:11:31.960
Wasama's like, well, I don't
have a pen and paper. They bring

1155
01:11:32.000 --> 01:11:33.720
it out to him. He writes
it and he's like, you know,

1156
01:11:33.840 --> 01:11:36.359
thank you, and that's when the
notes revealed to say help us. The

1157
01:11:36.399 --> 01:11:40.159
guard draws his gun, telling slog
to put his hands on his head drop

1158
01:11:40.239 --> 01:11:42.520
to the floor, and the guests
are like shoot him, shoot him,

1159
01:11:42.560 --> 01:11:44.920
like he's it's all him, and
of course, philled, the Lilian's assistant

1160
01:11:44.960 --> 01:11:48.520
is like, fuck you, and
he goes to turn the gun on Margo,

1161
01:11:48.640 --> 01:11:51.439
revealing the gun is fake and actually
a lighter as he lights the candle

1162
01:11:51.479 --> 01:11:56.000
on Margo's table. Yeah, it's
a good fake out, and he's part

1163
01:11:56.039 --> 01:11:58.439
of the chef's staff. So he
returns to the kitchen and slow It confronts

1164
01:11:58.439 --> 01:12:00.560
Margo for breaking your bond of trust
and says I was wrong about you.

1165
01:12:00.560 --> 01:12:05.399
You are meant to be with them. So we see the chef return to

1166
01:12:05.439 --> 01:12:10.000
the kitchen. Margo contemplates for a
second before standing up and doing her own

1167
01:12:10.439 --> 01:12:14.520
interpretation of the chef's clap. I
love this part. This is what made

1168
01:12:15.000 --> 01:12:21.560
this is what made the film a
much had the film have a staying impact

1169
01:12:21.640 --> 01:12:25.560
on me. Up until this point, it was pretty damn good. But

1170
01:12:25.640 --> 01:12:29.720
the way the end it is truly
excellent. If you have not seen the

1171
01:12:29.760 --> 01:12:31.279
film, stop, you may want
to just go rent it right now.

1172
01:12:32.159 --> 01:12:35.359
I don't want to spoil it,
but I'm really excited to spoil it.

1173
01:12:35.439 --> 01:12:39.159
So here we go. So Margot
contemplates, she stands up, does the

1174
01:12:39.239 --> 01:12:42.720
chef clap, and that's when she
says that she is not satisfied and she

1175
01:12:42.720 --> 01:12:46.920
would like to send her food back
and execs the kitchen, apologizing, asking

1176
01:12:46.920 --> 01:12:49.960
what about the food is wrong?
And she states he's taken the joy out

1177
01:12:49.960 --> 01:12:53.840
of eating. This food is made
with no love, and slog argues,

1178
01:12:53.880 --> 01:12:58.680
well, you know we cook,
we only cook with love here at Hawthorne,

1179
01:12:58.800 --> 01:13:01.359
and then it says you cook with
love. Yes, It's like that's

1180
01:13:01.439 --> 01:13:05.399
like the most not loving thing ever
that they all have to yell yet che

1181
01:13:05.800 --> 01:13:10.319
so Margo states he cooks with obsession, not love. Hot dishes are cold,

1182
01:13:10.359 --> 01:13:12.880
and she's bored. And the worst
part of it is, I'm still

1183
01:13:13.000 --> 01:13:16.239
fucking hungry and I love that because
the idea you cook with obsession, not

1184
01:13:16.520 --> 01:13:27.119
love. Listen as your style guy, as your lifestyle coach. Folks,

1185
01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:32.119
take a moment and think about some
of the worst decisions in your personal life

1186
01:13:33.000 --> 01:13:39.720
are probably when you did something out
of obsession and not love. That's why

1187
01:13:39.760 --> 01:13:45.760
I love that little moment. Yeah, because she's completely right. And this

1188
01:13:45.840 --> 01:13:48.720
movie has a lot to say about
being in the service industry, which I'll

1189
01:13:48.760 --> 01:13:53.800
dive into in a second. Keep
going. So she says that, you

1190
01:13:53.800 --> 01:13:56.039
know he has what are you hungry
for? We have that? What do

1191
01:13:56.039 --> 01:13:58.199
you have? Well, we have
everything here, and she goes, you

1192
01:13:58.199 --> 01:14:02.439
know what, I would really want
a cheeseburger, And we see Slowick's eyes

1193
01:14:02.640 --> 01:14:05.039
just light up a little bit.
Yeah, yeah, just to smidge it.

1194
01:14:05.159 --> 01:14:09.199
Yeah, And he goes a cheeseburger
and she says, you know,

1195
01:14:09.239 --> 01:14:13.039
and not some deconstructed bullshit, A
real cheeseburger, A real cheeseburger. And

1196
01:14:13.079 --> 01:14:15.600
he's like, well, how do
you want it medium, rare or medium?

1197
01:14:15.640 --> 01:14:17.600
And she and what cheese? American
cheese? Oh, American cheese is

1198
01:14:17.640 --> 01:14:21.319
the best of cheese. Doesn't split
when it melts? Yeah? And how

1199
01:14:21.359 --> 01:14:25.279
much will that set me back?
Nine five? Does it come with fries?

1200
01:14:25.760 --> 01:14:29.640
Is the Friar still on. Yes, Chef creakle cut or Julian I

1201
01:14:29.760 --> 01:14:32.960
love that. Yeah, And that's
when we watch slow It craft a delicious

1202
01:14:33.000 --> 01:14:36.800
looking cheeseburger. And the best part
of this is is he's smiling for the

1203
01:14:36.840 --> 01:14:42.560
first time while he cooks. And
it's simple. Yeah. Two meat balls,

1204
01:14:42.680 --> 01:14:45.159
yep. He puts them on the
stove, flattens them, and then

1205
01:14:45.239 --> 01:14:49.680
puts salt and pepper. Nothing crazy
pepper. He does do a few little

1206
01:14:49.760 --> 01:14:53.239
chefy tricks to make any of the
better. He puts onions on, then

1207
01:14:53.279 --> 01:14:56.399
flips it with the onions so that
the steams the onions into the burger yep,

1208
01:14:56.560 --> 01:15:00.880
which I mean he probably learned from
White Castle. Makes sense, but

1209
01:15:00.199 --> 01:15:03.640
you know those burgers are cooked entirely
as it's so good. I'm I love

1210
01:15:03.640 --> 01:15:09.800
a cover Boss episode of White Castle. Listen, I'm really fucking hungry idea.

1211
01:15:10.000 --> 01:15:12.680
Oh God, I ate leftover pizza
for dinner and it did not take

1212
01:15:12.760 --> 01:15:16.039
but so but my poisy. So
he makes this simple burger, tons of

1213
01:15:16.119 --> 01:15:20.039
cheese, He puts it on the
bun, he scrases it down. It's

1214
01:15:20.199 --> 01:15:26.439
juicy as hell, and then the
subtitle dave, I love it a real

1215
01:15:26.520 --> 01:15:30.399
cheeseburger. Is what we get a
supplemental course, a cheeseburger, Just a

1216
01:15:30.439 --> 01:15:32.199
well made cheeseburger. Yeah, that's
all it says. Yep, none of

1217
01:15:32.199 --> 01:15:38.119
that atrama bullshit. Nope, not
no extra syllables that you get charged eight

1218
01:15:38.159 --> 01:15:41.880
dollars a syllable for. So he
serves it to Margo. And the best

1219
01:15:41.880 --> 01:15:44.560
part of this is is everybody in
the restaurant's watching this happen. Yeah,

1220
01:15:44.560 --> 01:15:47.880
they're all just watching this this moment. I don't know how to describe it.

1221
01:15:47.920 --> 01:15:50.720
And we watch her take a big
bite of it and smile, making

1222
01:15:50.800 --> 01:15:54.479
him smile back more as she goes, that's cheeseburger, and he goes,

1223
01:15:54.520 --> 01:15:58.039
that is a cheeseburger, and the
and she comments that her eyes were maybe

1224
01:15:58.039 --> 01:16:00.560
a little bigger than her stomach,
asking if she can get the rest to

1225
01:16:00.600 --> 01:16:03.359
go, and so he puts it
in a fucking to go box. Yes

1226
01:16:03.399 --> 01:16:08.359
he does, and then she pays, pays, presents her with the to

1227
01:16:08.439 --> 01:16:12.279
go bag, and then they let
her walk out the front fucking door.

1228
01:16:12.359 --> 01:16:15.479
Yeah, she just leaves because she's
done with her meal. Yep, do

1229
01:16:15.640 --> 01:16:28.439
you even? Movie will be right
back, welcome back to do you even

1230
01:16:28.560 --> 01:16:34.680
movie? So slowik then presents the
diners with their bill's stating that they have

1231
01:16:34.720 --> 01:16:38.039
one more course, but he's also
going to include a goodie bag, which

1232
01:16:38.079 --> 01:16:41.319
is the housemaid grains, some of
Doug Verrick's fingers, and a copy of

1233
01:16:41.319 --> 01:16:45.720
tonight's menu. And that's when ladies
and gentlemen we get to the final course,

1234
01:16:45.279 --> 01:16:49.479
which is he talks about how this
has been an assault on the taste

1235
01:16:49.520 --> 01:16:53.279
budge, which is a s'more.
He says, you know that it is

1236
01:16:53.319 --> 01:16:58.520
one of the most atrocious things for
a culinary god. What is I can't

1237
01:16:58.520 --> 01:17:00.359
remember how he says it, but
basically how it's a mess, like how

1238
01:17:00.439 --> 01:17:04.000
this is not like something that should
be cooked in a restaurant. Basically,

1239
01:17:04.039 --> 01:17:06.680
yeah, it's meant for a campfire, meant for a campfire. And that's

1240
01:17:06.680 --> 01:17:11.239
when we see that the restaurant is
about to be the more as they are

1241
01:17:11.319 --> 01:17:15.640
laying Grand Crappers, Grant Crackers,
God Grand Crappers, ladies and gentlemen,

1242
01:17:15.760 --> 01:17:20.680
Graham Cracker crumbs all over the restaurant
floor. They are putting these like marshmallow

1243
01:17:20.760 --> 01:17:28.239
straight jackets onto the guests and also
putting these giant chocolate hats on the guests

1244
01:17:28.239 --> 01:17:30.119
as well. Dave couldn't think of
the word hungry. No, like I'm

1245
01:17:30.159 --> 01:17:32.840
hungry too, Like I didn't think
about this. Oh no, And that's

1246
01:17:32.880 --> 01:17:36.279
when we see Slowick take his hand
into the coals. He grabs the coals

1247
01:17:36.319 --> 01:17:40.239
and we see Margo pulling away on
a boat that she's found. He goes,

1248
01:17:40.279 --> 01:17:41.960
you know, uh, it was
the boat that they saw the coast

1249
01:17:42.239 --> 01:17:44.800
they saw the coast guard brang.
Yeah, and that's when he drops the

1250
01:17:44.800 --> 01:17:45.840
coals down, saying, no,
I love you all again, We love

1251
01:17:45.880 --> 01:17:49.000
you two, chef, and we
see the entire restaurant, the staff,

1252
01:17:49.039 --> 01:17:53.479
the customers all go up in flames
as these marshmallows chocolate are all melting.

1253
01:17:53.840 --> 01:17:57.600
And Margo stops the boat as the
restaurant I Nights, takes out the cheeseburger,

1254
01:17:57.880 --> 01:18:00.720
takes a big bite, watches the
fire, takes the menu out of

1255
01:18:00.720 --> 01:18:03.359
the goodie bag and wipes her mouth
with it. But we also missed that

1256
01:18:03.640 --> 01:18:08.680
they bring up the Smores carb which
says S'mores marshmallow, chocolate, Graham cracker,

1257
01:18:09.039 --> 01:18:14.439
customers, staff, restaurant, and
that, my friends, is that

1258
01:18:14.479 --> 01:18:18.319
menu. And I want to say
one thing before we get into all of

1259
01:18:18.359 --> 01:18:21.279
it. Yeah, the chef what
was his name? Again the chef Julian

1260
01:18:21.319 --> 01:18:28.000
Slowick, Slowick, Chef Slowick.
I think I know why he wanted to

1261
01:18:28.039 --> 01:18:30.600
die in the restaurant, not just
not just because he's sad. Yeah,

1262
01:18:31.439 --> 01:18:38.079
I think he needed to prove he
was not a god. I could see

1263
01:18:38.079 --> 01:18:43.079
that. Think about how he is. He has followers, not just the

1264
01:18:43.079 --> 01:18:45.880
people who work for him, the
people who pay obscene money to eat his

1265
01:18:45.880 --> 01:18:48.960
food. Yeah, he gets to
demand everything. He gets to tell them

1266
01:18:48.960 --> 01:18:53.600
no substitutions, you eat what I
give you. It's perfect in every way.

1267
01:18:54.239 --> 01:18:57.760
He gets to freaking, you know, touch fire with his bare hands,

1268
01:18:57.800 --> 01:19:00.520
and he doesn't care. He has
his own island, his own everything.

1269
01:19:00.560 --> 01:19:04.479
It's it's all self serving. I
think in a way, if you

1270
01:19:04.600 --> 01:19:09.279
look at him and the way he
carries himself, the way he talks to

1271
01:19:09.319 --> 01:19:14.680
everybody, I think in a way
he feels he's a god and resents it.

1272
01:19:15.239 --> 01:19:19.279
You're gonna love some trivia here in
a second. Oh no, yeah,

1273
01:19:19.399 --> 01:19:23.800
you ready? I mean, unless
you wanted to expand on the whole.

1274
01:19:23.920 --> 01:19:26.079
No, no, no, I'm
gonna I'm gonna give you this,

1275
01:19:26.800 --> 01:19:30.359
Okay, I'm down. So one
of the restaurants that they see the newspaper

1276
01:19:30.479 --> 01:19:34.159
article in chef's room shows that he
once worked at a restaurant called Tontulus.

1277
01:19:34.359 --> 01:19:38.920
Tonsulus is the name of a character
in Greek mythology. He invited the gods

1278
01:19:38.960 --> 01:19:41.720
to his home for dinner, but
trick them into eating a stew made from

1279
01:19:41.720 --> 01:19:44.600
the meat of his own son,
who he had murdered and dismembered in order

1280
01:19:44.640 --> 01:19:47.039
to test their omniscience. When the
gods realized what he had done, they

1281
01:19:47.119 --> 01:19:51.119
cursed Tondulus to stand in shallow pool
of water under a fruit tree. Anytime

1282
01:19:51.159 --> 01:19:55.119
he would raise his hand for the
fruit, the tree's branches would rise beyond

1283
01:19:55.119 --> 01:19:57.960
his reach, and anytime he would
bend down to drink, the water would

1284
01:19:57.960 --> 01:20:00.680
recede, much the same way.
The chef has served the elite and sacrificed

1285
01:20:00.680 --> 01:20:03.560
his own dream, and now all
the food and drink is meaningless to him.

1286
01:20:03.880 --> 01:20:06.319
Hmmm, that's interesting. I do
like that. Yeah, yeah,

1287
01:20:06.359 --> 01:20:10.119
but no, I think I think
you're absolutely dead on I think he has

1288
01:20:10.199 --> 01:20:14.520
kind of came to this realization that
since he's lost the passion, since he's

1289
01:20:14.560 --> 01:20:17.319
lost the desire to do what he
loves, that the only way for him

1290
01:20:17.319 --> 01:20:20.680
to go out is the way for
him to go I mean go out with

1291
01:20:20.680 --> 01:20:23.680
his entire staff. He wants to
take it all with it, take it

1292
01:20:23.720 --> 01:20:28.359
all with him exactly, and the
whole thing where he lets the Sioux chef

1293
01:20:28.399 --> 01:20:32.079
stab him and then ruin his shirt
and then he apologizes. I felt like

1294
01:20:32.159 --> 01:20:36.920
that was a part of him trying
to step his way back into mortality since

1295
01:20:36.960 --> 01:20:41.560
he knew that, like I'm gonna
die tonight. Yeah, And that was

1296
01:20:41.600 --> 01:20:43.399
just something I started to pick up
with the way he walked around, the

1297
01:20:43.399 --> 01:20:45.159
way he looked at people, the
way he talked to people, the way

1298
01:20:45.199 --> 01:20:47.000
he was so confused when people didn't
agree with him. I was like,

1299
01:20:47.079 --> 01:20:49.479
man, this guy's got a god
complex and I don't think he likes it.

1300
01:20:49.520 --> 01:20:53.159
Doesn't like it. Yeah, yeah, that's just my thought. But

1301
01:20:54.399 --> 01:20:58.720
so what was it doctor Sunshine calling
doctor Son calling doctor Sunshine. I think

1302
01:20:58.760 --> 01:21:03.640
that calling doctor Sunshine was a metaphor
for the Cheeseburger because leg Waszamo's character says

1303
01:21:03.680 --> 01:21:06.359
when they made that movie like it
was a stupid script, not a great

1304
01:21:06.439 --> 01:21:10.119
role, but a great set to
be on. So he had because he

1305
01:21:10.159 --> 01:21:13.319
smiles when he hears about even though
he's like, I'm not like super proud

1306
01:21:13.319 --> 01:21:16.159
of that movie, but I enjoyed
being there. But then you hear one

1307
01:21:16.239 --> 01:21:21.159
person at the chef who's this hate
filled, jaded creature say like, well

1308
01:21:21.199 --> 01:21:25.199
that movie wasn't very good and it
ruined my whole day. But then like

1309
01:21:25.279 --> 01:21:27.640
some random ass too, chef is
like I love that movie. Yeah,

1310
01:21:28.560 --> 01:21:35.399
because service is subjective, and how
happy you make people this subjective? It's

1311
01:21:35.399 --> 01:21:42.000
also worth considering for a moment,
David, that America is a service economy.

1312
01:21:42.720 --> 01:21:45.680
We shifted. We used to be
a manufacturing economy, now we're a

1313
01:21:45.680 --> 01:21:48.159
service economy. Most people work in
the service industry. But what a lot

1314
01:21:48.199 --> 01:21:51.479
of people forget. And I bet
you didn't know this. You know who's

1315
01:21:51.560 --> 01:21:57.880
in the service industry? What do
you mean? Like, what profession is

1316
01:21:57.880 --> 01:22:03.600
in the service industry? No,
Actors, yeah, filmmakers, that's the

1317
01:22:03.600 --> 01:22:10.359
service industrivice industry. My point is, see how you didn't even realize it.

1318
01:22:10.399 --> 01:22:13.560
And you're not a jaded dude.
I don't really think you're jaded at

1319
01:22:13.560 --> 01:22:15.199
all. No, I mean I
mean, if you are, it's like

1320
01:22:15.600 --> 01:22:17.119
whatever, it's not. Yeah,
it's minor. But like my point,

1321
01:22:17.159 --> 01:22:19.520
I mean, we all get jaded
about something. Yeah, but that's my

1322
01:22:19.560 --> 01:22:21.960
point is, like, but even
you you're like, oh yeah, because

1323
01:22:23.000 --> 01:22:24.319
the second I said that, You're
like, oh, yeah, of course

1324
01:22:24.319 --> 01:22:27.439
their service. Yeah, that's what
I got from this movies. It's like

1325
01:22:28.479 --> 01:22:32.479
when you stop caring about who you're
supposed to be taking care of. And

1326
01:22:32.560 --> 01:22:36.000
don't get me wrong, people in
the service industry they get treated like shit

1327
01:22:36.119 --> 01:22:40.399
all the time. They get crapped
on. It's a really hard job.

1328
01:22:40.479 --> 01:22:43.479
But if you've ever met someone and
I don't know if you have or not,

1329
01:22:43.920 --> 01:22:47.640
who is excellent in the service industry, and I don't just mean they're

1330
01:22:47.640 --> 01:22:53.039
good at there, they like it. There is a joy I am.

1331
01:22:53.439 --> 01:22:55.840
I don't know if I'm one of
them. I actually liked working retail,

1332
01:22:55.840 --> 01:22:59.399
but I only did it for four
months during Christmas. For a long time.

1333
01:22:59.479 --> 01:23:01.319
Yeah, But like I have a
buddy Ray, you know right,

1334
01:23:01.800 --> 01:23:08.359
and Ray is a concierge and a
manager of hotels. He loves making people

1335
01:23:08.439 --> 01:23:12.079
stay comfortable. I bet he loves
going out of the way. He once

1336
01:23:12.159 --> 01:23:15.439
told me a story with this big
grin on his face because he opened the

1337
01:23:15.479 --> 01:23:18.880
pool for an extra hour because this
family had traveled really far and they arrived

1338
01:23:18.880 --> 01:23:21.760
an hour late. So he came
to the room and was like, I

1339
01:23:21.800 --> 01:23:25.960
just want to let you know.
The door will be unlocked until ten thirty

1340
01:23:26.000 --> 01:23:28.680
instead of nine thirty. We hope
you enjoy your state. But he was

1341
01:23:28.720 --> 01:23:30.720
so he was just telling me the
story and he had a huge smile on

1342
01:23:30.760 --> 01:23:33.600
his face because he was like,
I got to make their day by doing

1343
01:23:33.640 --> 01:23:38.199
my job. And I think that's
how a good chef is. I think

1344
01:23:38.199 --> 01:23:41.359
that's how you have to be if
you want to entertain people. You know,

1345
01:23:41.840 --> 01:23:45.880
again, I know how fortunate I
am. I mostly work in movies,

1346
01:23:45.960 --> 01:23:49.920
but now my part time gig is
podcasting this show and Weekly Spooky.

1347
01:23:49.960 --> 01:23:55.039
Weekly Spooky is a really big audience. It's very hard to accrue an audience

1348
01:23:55.119 --> 01:23:58.520
like that. But every day I
sit down, no matter how tired I

1349
01:23:58.560 --> 01:24:02.039
am, I can't help but get
little twinkle in my eye because I'm gonna

1350
01:24:02.079 --> 01:24:06.399
make someone smile. Like literally,
while we were recording the show, I

1351
01:24:06.439 --> 01:24:11.239
got a comment on Patreon from somebody
just saying how much they loved the new

1352
01:24:11.279 --> 01:24:15.680
series that just finished. Yeah,
and it made me so happy. But

1353
01:24:15.720 --> 01:24:20.199
it's so easy to lose that.
And the best way to lose what it

1354
01:24:20.319 --> 01:24:28.720
means to do something for others is
to seek perfection, because then the customer

1355
01:24:28.800 --> 01:24:32.199
is completely secondary. That to makes
sense, so that's just my thought.

1356
01:24:32.359 --> 01:24:36.800
So when I heard the multiple references
to calling doctor Sunshine, yeah, I

1357
01:24:36.880 --> 01:24:41.279
was like, that's his cheeseburger.
That makes sense, and he doesn't like

1358
01:24:41.319 --> 01:24:44.359
that people remember it, yet he
can't help but smile smile when it brought

1359
01:24:44.439 --> 01:24:45.960
up. Ye, Yeah, just
like the chef couldn't help but smile when

1360
01:24:45.960 --> 01:24:50.079
he asked was asked for a cheeseburger, because it's like, how hard is

1361
01:24:50.119 --> 01:24:54.399
it to make a great cheeseburger?
It's not that hard. Well, it's

1362
01:24:54.560 --> 01:24:57.000
the one thing they have to be
hard to be valuable. No, And

1363
01:24:57.039 --> 01:24:59.960
the one thing I love about the
scene when she sees the Hungry Howie's article

1364
01:25:00.239 --> 01:25:02.640
is she sees a picture of him
with his family, like his wife and

1365
01:25:02.680 --> 01:25:06.159
his kid, and he's not smiling. Sees another picture him with a restaurant,

1366
01:25:06.319 --> 01:25:11.039
not smiling, sees this picture from
nineteen eighty seven of him just holding

1367
01:25:11.079 --> 01:25:14.960
the spatula and the cheeseburger, big
ass grint, and she just centers in

1368
01:25:15.000 --> 01:25:17.319
on it because he's making people happy
with food, Yeah, which is what

1369
01:25:17.399 --> 01:25:21.239
he always wanted. Yeah, Yeah, it's it's so good. That's something

1370
01:25:21.279 --> 01:25:26.159
I really love about the film.
And I've been thinking a lot about the

1371
01:25:26.199 --> 01:25:29.800
service economy since. Frankly, my
mind was blown when I found out that

1372
01:25:30.000 --> 01:25:33.880
podcasters and filmmakers are categorized as service. I didn't know, and then all

1373
01:25:33.880 --> 01:25:36.840
of a sudden, I was like, Oh, it actually made me prouder.

1374
01:25:38.079 --> 01:25:39.880
It actually made me prouder. I
was like, you mean to tell

1375
01:25:39.920 --> 01:25:43.960
me that, Like, I'm in
the same business as the person who just

1376
01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:45.520
by being polite to me when I
pick up a pizza makes my day better.

1377
01:25:46.199 --> 01:25:48.439
I like it. I mean,
I enjoy that. I'm okay with

1378
01:25:48.520 --> 01:25:51.760
that I am not better than anybody. Yeah, I like that. So

1379
01:25:53.039 --> 01:25:56.880
because I've always believed that, you
know, a little something can make somebody's

1380
01:25:56.920 --> 01:25:59.319
whole day. Yeah, anyway,
I heard that too. I mean I

1381
01:25:59.640 --> 01:26:02.479
work in a customer service field right
now, and the littlest things that I

1382
01:26:02.479 --> 01:26:05.399
can do sometimes it makes people entire
day. Just makes me feel better,

1383
01:26:05.479 --> 01:26:09.880
Like, even if it's just something
that I don't have to really lift a

1384
01:26:09.920 --> 01:26:12.800
thumb up to do much. It's
like just a simple task of either calling

1385
01:26:12.840 --> 01:26:16.479
a store and verifying something for them, it makes their day incredible sometimes and

1386
01:26:16.520 --> 01:26:19.600
it's just that little extra effort.
Oh yeah, I get praised a lot

1387
01:26:19.640 --> 01:26:23.960
for great customer service at my web
store, because if you like your disc

1388
01:26:24.000 --> 01:26:26.960
arrives broken, I'll send you a
new one like immediately, Yeah, and

1389
01:26:27.039 --> 01:26:30.840
people will get thrilled. You also
ship immediately to truck try to Yeah.

1390
01:26:30.840 --> 01:26:31.720
I mean, I mean like I've
been sitting with you, like when we've

1391
01:26:31.720 --> 01:26:33.560
been watching movies and you're pause it
and you're like, we got I gotta

1392
01:26:33.560 --> 01:26:36.800
take some of the post office for
the post office right now? All right?

1393
01:26:36.840 --> 01:26:40.640
So you're ready to wrap the show
up? Sure? Al right?

1394
01:26:40.800 --> 01:26:45.960
So our budget is thirty million for
this show? Do I get paid now?

1395
01:26:45.079 --> 01:26:48.159
Finally? Because I kind of would
like to be reimbursed for all the

1396
01:26:48.159 --> 01:26:51.239
cameras and microphones. So the budget
of the film is thirty million. It

1397
01:26:51.239 --> 01:26:55.359
opens on November eighteenth, twenty twenty
two. What do you think the box

1398
01:26:55.399 --> 01:27:00.359
office was? I don't think it
was a massive hit, so I don't

1399
01:27:00.359 --> 01:27:04.520
know what the opening opening weekend was. But the box office in total was

1400
01:27:04.560 --> 01:27:06.840
seventy nine point six million, OK. I was going to get some in

1401
01:27:06.840 --> 01:27:10.920
the seventies actually, believe it or
not. Grossing thirty eight point five million

1402
01:27:10.920 --> 01:27:13.960
in the US and Canada and forty
one point one million in other territories.

1403
01:27:14.199 --> 01:27:17.119
That's really good filming. Began September
third, twenty twenty one, and Savannah

1404
01:27:17.119 --> 01:27:21.840
Georgia also shot on Jeko Island shore. In twenty nineteen, Emma Stone was

1405
01:27:21.840 --> 01:27:26.319
attached to play the lead role with
Alexander Payne directing, but in twenty twenty

1406
01:27:26.399 --> 01:27:30.560
one Anya Taylor Joy replaced Stone and
My Lad replaced Pain. That would have

1407
01:27:30.560 --> 01:27:35.439
been a fascinating movie with Alexander Payne
in charge. No shit, so so

1408
01:27:35.560 --> 01:27:41.199
Will Ferrell in. Then we're trying
to get Alexander Payne. Yeah, that

1409
01:27:41.239 --> 01:27:44.319
would have been a very different film
here. Yeah. Will Tracy, one

1410
01:27:44.319 --> 01:27:47.760
of the Riders, dined at Cornelius
Sumajit Restaurant, an island restaurant out in

1411
01:27:47.840 --> 01:27:51.239
Bergen, Norway, during a honeymoon, and later suggested the story to seth

1412
01:27:51.319 --> 01:27:56.520
Reeves, inspired by the experience.
Several figures from the world of fine dining

1413
01:27:56.560 --> 01:27:59.960
were brought on as consultants of the
film, including chef Dominique Crenn, who

1414
01:28:00.119 --> 01:28:04.760
recreated several dishes from her San Francisco
restaurant at tour at tell your cren for

1415
01:28:05.159 --> 01:28:10.279
I Don't Name No for the fictional
restaurant Hawthorne. Second unit director David Gelb,

1416
01:28:10.399 --> 01:28:15.039
who was brought on to recreate filmmaking
style from his Netflix docuseries Chef's Table,

1417
01:28:15.039 --> 01:28:17.159
which is mentioned in the movie.
Yeah, yeah, that's that's interesting.

1418
01:28:17.520 --> 01:28:21.359
Seconds got herom tongue. Oh my
god, unprofessional. You just eat

1419
01:28:21.359 --> 01:28:25.600
the hair and keep going trying to
Oh my god, I swear. The

1420
01:28:25.760 --> 01:28:29.800
entire kitchen team were trained to actually
create the dishes, broken down station by

1421
01:28:29.800 --> 01:28:31.520
station, so that at any time
you look at them, they're all doing

1422
01:28:31.520 --> 01:28:34.239
the correct things they should be doing
for that dish. Were it real life

1423
01:28:34.239 --> 01:28:40.520
and not a movie. Ooh,
that sounds annoying to those people. The

1424
01:28:40.600 --> 01:28:43.439
unique dining room set up in the
film meant all that. Ad meant that

1425
01:28:43.479 --> 01:28:45.640
all the actors playing the diners were
almost always on stage and were expected to

1426
01:28:45.640 --> 01:28:48.920
improvise in the background when their close
ups weren't being filmed. To keep things

1427
01:28:48.960 --> 01:28:51.600
fresh and to get to know each
other, Joy and Holt would tell each

1428
01:28:51.600 --> 01:28:55.800
other personal stories with key details change
while filming, then try to guess what

1429
01:28:55.840 --> 01:28:59.159
was fiction and what was fact between
takes. I would be like, hey,

1430
01:28:59.399 --> 01:29:04.520
heyho, all you say peas and
carrots and nothing more. A newspaper

1431
01:29:04.600 --> 01:29:09.119
article on Chef's remo. I read
that one ready. Yeah, Jesus Leguizambo

1432
01:29:09.359 --> 01:29:13.000
based his character of a washed up
action star on Steven Sagal, whom he

1433
01:29:13.039 --> 01:29:15.760
called a horrible human due to a
particularly bad experience while working with him on

1434
01:29:15.840 --> 01:29:20.079
executive decision. Multiple references to Diaz
playing a cook in one of the movies

1435
01:29:20.119 --> 01:29:24.319
maybe a nod to the Under Siege
films where Sagal also played a chef.

1436
01:29:24.399 --> 01:29:27.000
Yeah, he did. He played
a cook on a Just a Cook.

1437
01:29:27.199 --> 01:29:30.560
I'm just a cook. The burger
consumed by Margo was a real burger,

1438
01:29:30.560 --> 01:29:32.920
as opposed to the foods seen throughout
the movie that discreated by Sloan were prop

1439
01:29:32.960 --> 01:29:38.079
foods. Everyone was so hungry on
set watching Anya eating the burger that Leguizamo

1440
01:29:38.239 --> 01:29:42.720
ordered five guys burgers for and fries
for the entire cast. Oh, they

1441
01:29:42.720 --> 01:29:45.520
only had thirty million. They didn't
have a fucking catering. Come Carolyn not.

1442
01:29:45.399 --> 01:29:49.039
The movie's digital release came just a
few days before Norma, an iconic

1443
01:29:49.079 --> 01:29:54.640
fine dining restaurant in Copenhagen whose traits
locally sourced ingredients, exclusive clientele, and

1444
01:29:54.680 --> 01:29:58.960
an aura of riggity informality likely inspired
or at least parallel to, Hawthorne,

1445
01:29:59.000 --> 01:30:02.680
announced that it would close down a
linked article incidentally mentioned criticism of Norma for

1446
01:30:02.720 --> 01:30:06.840
mistreating and underpaying its workers, much
like the oppressive work environment of Hawthorne's kitchen.

1447
01:30:08.119 --> 01:30:11.800
Although this problem is a pervasive one
throughout the food industry, some even

1448
01:30:11.800 --> 01:30:15.920
claim that the movie's eerie similarities with
reality may have been the final straw for

1449
01:30:15.960 --> 01:30:18.680
the controversy plug Norma. This makes
the finale where the restaurant everyone in it

1450
01:30:18.720 --> 01:30:24.119
is destroyed slightly and uncomfortable parallel,
Oh, because before it was hilarious and

1451
01:30:24.199 --> 01:30:29.159
joyful. Lastly, boy, there
are twelve dining guests, just like the

1452
01:30:29.199 --> 01:30:30.880
apostles in the Last Supper. Okay, yeah, yeah, that makes sense.

1453
01:30:30.920 --> 01:30:38.800
So before we do our final thought, Yes, sir, what's the

1454
01:30:38.840 --> 01:30:43.520
most expensive thing you've ever eaten?
Flemings? When I went to my parents?

1455
01:30:43.600 --> 01:30:51.199
When I went with my parents to
Fleming's steakhouse, that was a You

1456
01:30:51.239 --> 01:30:54.960
don't have to know the exact numbers, you just ballpark. It's fine.

1457
01:30:55.039 --> 01:30:57.720
No, I'm trying to think of
what the dinner the dinner for me?

1458
01:30:57.840 --> 01:31:03.399
Name one thing you ate even visits
twice baked potato. Wow, your parents

1459
01:31:03.479 --> 01:31:08.199
are cheap anyway. So it was
me, my mom, my dad,

1460
01:31:08.720 --> 01:31:13.319
my sister, and my my ex
eight hundred and fifty dollars bill. They

1461
01:31:13.319 --> 01:31:17.239
don't make an eight hundred and fifty
dollars bill, you know what I mean?

1462
01:31:18.520 --> 01:31:21.199
So, I are you gonna talk
what I think you're going to talk

1463
01:31:21.199 --> 01:31:25.079
about about lime cottsu? Yeah?
I knew it. Well, yeah,

1464
01:31:25.079 --> 01:31:29.079
because I am not a person who
spends an immense amount of money on food

1465
01:31:29.119 --> 01:31:32.239
generally, but well, that is
an imense amount of money food sometimes.

1466
01:31:32.600 --> 01:31:36.960
But when I was I was working
down in Miami on a documentary that I

1467
01:31:36.960 --> 01:31:43.319
had been hired on too, and
the producer, the executive producer, very

1468
01:31:43.359 --> 01:31:48.119
wealthy, and he took me to
two different restaurants. One was a sushi

1469
01:31:48.239 --> 01:31:55.000
restaurant and one was a steakhouse.
Neither of them had prices on the menus.

1470
01:31:55.479 --> 01:32:00.159
Yeah. The crazy thing is,
so the sushi resta served lime caught

1471
01:32:00.159 --> 01:32:03.439
sushi, which means that the fish
is caught on a line, not in

1472
01:32:03.479 --> 01:32:06.840
a net, which means that they
are bled before they die, which means

1473
01:32:06.880 --> 01:32:13.840
their meat is more supple and less
bitter. So we go there, no

1474
01:32:14.399 --> 01:32:18.880
prices on the menus, and as
I'm like about to order a entre,

1475
01:32:19.600 --> 01:32:24.079
he says, oh no, don't
order like a full entree just order stuff

1476
01:32:24.439 --> 01:32:27.640
and then when they come back,
he's Romanian, and when they come back,

1477
01:32:27.840 --> 01:32:30.840
just order more if you want more. And I was like, how

1478
01:32:30.880 --> 01:32:32.960
does that work? He's like,
watch. So he just like ordered a

1479
01:32:33.079 --> 01:32:35.640
role, and then when the role
was gone, he just ordered even more

1480
01:32:35.640 --> 01:32:41.560
and more. So we must have
ordered between the two of us like sixteen

1481
01:32:41.640 --> 01:32:45.720
or seventeen times. The check was
more than one thousand dollars. Oh sure.

1482
01:32:47.880 --> 01:32:51.720
And then when I went to the
steakhouse, the check for the two

1483
01:32:51.800 --> 01:32:57.399
of us was over six hundred dollars. Damn. I got veal because I

1484
01:32:57.399 --> 01:33:00.760
had Oh I would I had never
had veal. Oh yeah. He was

1485
01:33:00.880 --> 01:33:02.359
very insistent. He was like,
get whatever you want. Well, it's

1486
01:33:02.399 --> 01:33:05.039
not like you can really tell what
was most expensive. They're no fucking price

1487
01:33:05.119 --> 01:33:09.119
rices. Yeah, but no.
So those are the most expensive meals of

1488
01:33:09.119 --> 01:33:11.760
my life. And they were within
two days of each other. That's awesome.

1489
01:33:12.039 --> 01:33:15.199
So anyway, but prior to that, it would have been like going

1490
01:33:15.199 --> 01:33:18.640
to the Pine Club or something around
daton C. So what's your final thought

1491
01:33:18.640 --> 01:33:21.039
on this movie? Dave? This
is a buy it for me. I'm

1492
01:33:21.039 --> 01:33:24.640
gonna give it a buy it with
a caveat that it may be a rented

1493
01:33:24.720 --> 01:33:29.039
for others. This the reason that
I love the menu is because it is

1494
01:33:29.359 --> 01:33:35.359
a great unveiling of obsession and of
I would say like it's a it's a

1495
01:33:35.399 --> 01:33:41.800
toss between obsession and perversion material like
materialism. How do you mean, because

1496
01:33:41.840 --> 01:33:45.279
you have you have the the people
that are there, the people that have

1497
01:33:45.279 --> 01:33:48.239
been there eleven times, and you've
got the fact that Slowak has lost his

1498
01:33:48.479 --> 01:33:51.359
he's lost his desire to cook.
You've got people that are coming there just

1499
01:33:51.399 --> 01:33:56.239
basically for the gram as we said
earlier, and this kind of shows everybody

1500
01:33:56.279 --> 01:34:00.119
in a light that is both showing
the consequences that they had, like he

1501
01:34:00.159 --> 01:34:01.920
points out and everything, but also
on top of that, we get to

1502
01:34:01.920 --> 01:34:08.640
see we get to see a display
of how people I'm trying to think I

1503
01:34:08.640 --> 01:34:13.159
want to word this, when you
are faced with when you're faced with the

1504
01:34:13.159 --> 01:34:15.439
consequences of your actions, but also
you see what it has done to another

1505
01:34:15.479 --> 01:34:19.479
person, it makes you kind of
accept the faith that you've been given in

1506
01:34:19.520 --> 01:34:21.840
a sense, I mean, when
you're not a sociopath, that would be

1507
01:34:21.840 --> 01:34:25.560
correct. You know I'm not one
of those things. Well, don't forget.

1508
01:34:25.600 --> 01:34:29.159
There was a moment when Anya Taylor
Joy was being asked about being a

1509
01:34:29.239 --> 01:34:31.520
prostitute. Yeah, and she said, I get to meet people like you.

1510
01:34:31.760 --> 01:34:33.760
Yeah, And the chef was just
like, there's no one like me,

1511
01:34:34.079 --> 01:34:38.720
like, and she just chuckles,
Yeah, because there's tons of people.

1512
01:34:38.800 --> 01:34:41.319
No, I mean you you nailed
the god complex to one hundred percent.

1513
01:34:41.359 --> 01:34:43.720
Oh yeah, I mean, and
that's That's another reason I love this

1514
01:34:43.800 --> 01:34:47.000
movie is because the performance is in
it. I mean, Finds Alone is

1515
01:34:47.039 --> 01:34:54.039
amazing, but between Legazamo's character and
you have Anya Taylor Joy, you've got

1516
01:34:55.039 --> 01:34:59.159
Nicholas Holt. I mean, everybody
keeps you watching this movie because you don't

1517
01:34:59.159 --> 01:35:01.279
know what's gonna happen. It's a
great ensemble. Yeah, phenomenal ensemble.

1518
01:35:01.560 --> 01:35:05.560
I'm gonna give it a rent it. I think that if this film ages,

1519
01:35:05.600 --> 01:35:09.239
well, yeah, in ten years, it would be a by it.

1520
01:35:09.399 --> 01:35:13.000
Okay. I feel like it's it's
rare that a movie is a buy

1521
01:35:13.119 --> 01:35:15.840
it when it's only like two years
old. I get that not always rare,

1522
01:35:15.920 --> 01:35:20.600
but I just feel like, do
I have to own it? Maybe?

1523
01:35:20.600 --> 01:35:24.880
But I'm really into artsy films,
and whenever I give the buy it

1524
01:35:25.000 --> 01:35:28.000
rent it, I try to kind
of think broader than myself, more fun

1525
01:35:28.039 --> 01:35:30.319
film. I mean this. This
isn't necessarily a fun movie, but I'm

1526
01:35:30.319 --> 01:35:33.199
talking broadness. I'm just trying to
think about Like, yeah, I like

1527
01:35:33.640 --> 01:35:39.399
really heady bull crap. But do
I think that anybody listening to this should

1528
01:35:39.399 --> 01:35:43.880
buy it if you're into that kind
of thing. Yeah, but you'll know

1529
01:35:43.960 --> 01:35:45.119
by the end of the film if
you would rather buy it than rent it.

1530
01:35:45.159 --> 01:35:47.600
But I definitely think it's a rent. It's worth paying, you know,

1531
01:35:47.680 --> 01:35:51.640
five six bucks to watch it tonight
if you haven't seen under two hours.

1532
01:35:51.920 --> 01:35:55.600
And I mean that that that alone
is as worth it my opinion,

1533
01:35:55.600 --> 01:36:00.439
special special indeed, so recommendations.
We always like the show. I read

1534
01:36:00.479 --> 01:36:01.840
one of your recommendations. You stole
mine. You want to give it,

1535
01:36:01.880 --> 01:36:05.279
and y'all give the other. All
right, you give your first one.

1536
01:36:04.760 --> 01:36:09.279
I fucking knew you were going to
pick that one, because didn't I introduce

1537
01:36:09.319 --> 01:36:10.960
you to that film? Oh dude, I saw that movie. I rented

1538
01:36:10.960 --> 01:36:15.159
that movie at Family Video. You
never rented anything that kill Family video all

1539
01:36:15.159 --> 01:36:18.720
by your sight? Did that family
video with friends? Now I know you're

1540
01:36:18.800 --> 01:36:24.319
lying, Go ahead and give yours. Oh I was gonna recommend Bitter Feast.

1541
01:36:24.720 --> 01:36:29.199
It was a twenty twenty ten twenty
ten. That was a indie film

1542
01:36:29.239 --> 01:36:31.439
starring Josh Leonard, famous for being
in The Blair Witch Project, and James

1543
01:36:31.880 --> 01:36:35.880
Lgrow who is what's his face on
Point Break and Justified. I can't think

1544
01:36:35.920 --> 01:36:40.199
of his character named Roach. He's
Roach on Point Break well, and they're

1545
01:36:40.199 --> 01:36:44.399
both phenomenal in it. But it's
about a chef who kidnaps a reviewer.

1546
01:36:45.000 --> 01:36:49.079
No, Runny yellows it's an excellent
film. I'm mad. I'm just mad

1547
01:36:49.119 --> 01:36:51.920
you had there, because that's one
of those movies I love that's really under

1548
01:36:51.920 --> 01:36:56.760
the radar. And I think Bitter
Feast is one totally worth watching, and

1549
01:36:57.079 --> 01:37:00.159
I'm gonna recommend one that also focuses
on obsession. Twenty fifteen's Burnt with Bradley

1550
01:37:00.199 --> 01:37:04.479
Cooper of Jones is a chef who
destroyed his career with drugs and diva behavior.

1551
01:37:04.600 --> 01:37:09.079
He cleans up and returns to London, determined to redeem himself by spearheading

1552
01:37:09.079 --> 01:37:14.000
a top restaurant that can gain three
Michelin stars. No, actually I like

1553
01:37:14.079 --> 01:37:15.279
the movie. I do. I
don't think it's Burns. I'd just like

1554
01:37:15.359 --> 01:37:18.920
to tease about the fact that nothing
gets burnt in the whole movie. Feelings

1555
01:37:18.920 --> 01:37:24.399
get burned. Maybe, so you
want to know what we're talking about next

1556
01:37:24.399 --> 01:37:26.359
week, not in the least.
Well, you know how we said we're

1557
01:37:26.359 --> 01:37:30.439
gonna take a break from the nineties, No, we lied Urban Legend from

1558
01:37:30.560 --> 01:37:33.800
nineteen ninety eight. I cannot remember
what her name was that requested it,

1559
01:37:33.800 --> 01:37:38.319
but this was a birthday request for
one of our listeners and a big personal

1560
01:37:38.359 --> 01:37:41.079
favorite of mine. I'm really really
happy to talk about this one. Yeah,

1561
01:37:41.199 --> 01:37:44.640
Urban Legend beabe and that is going
to be a fun one to discuss.

1562
01:37:44.880 --> 01:37:46.760
And I'll get to talk about a
horror movie while I'm in the midst

1563
01:37:46.760 --> 01:37:51.079
of directing one, that is true. Hooray. Yeah. Well, before

1564
01:37:51.119 --> 01:37:54.439
we get out of here, we
do have emails, yes you told me,

1565
01:37:55.079 --> 01:37:56.880
but I don't have them, so
you got to read them? Well,

1566
01:37:56.920 --> 01:38:00.840
yeah, because you can't read.
So these folks wrote us at do

1567
01:38:00.920 --> 01:38:04.600
you even Movie pod at gmail dot
com. The first one is from a

1568
01:38:04.640 --> 01:38:11.439
gentleman named Kevin Potthoff. The subject
line, I already like it says great

1569
01:38:11.439 --> 01:38:15.199
showy, awesome show today. Guys
really enjoyed it. So this was on

1570
01:38:15.560 --> 01:38:20.399
the day that we released the Beekeeper
episode. Hope you guys start pulling some

1571
01:38:20.479 --> 01:38:25.399
movies from the nineteen sixties and seventies. We'd love to. I would also

1572
01:38:25.520 --> 01:38:30.399
like to hear your take on Monster
Squad and the original House on Haunted Hill.

1573
01:38:30.720 --> 01:38:33.800
Okay, thanks for the entertainment.
It makes the day go by.

1574
01:38:34.319 --> 01:38:38.600
I am also enjoying Weekly Spooky.
Well, thank you for checking on my

1575
01:38:38.640 --> 01:38:41.399
other podcast as well. Well,
I'm gonna tell you right now, Monster

1576
01:38:41.439 --> 01:38:44.479
Squad is my birthday movie. That's
for this year. Okay, so because

1577
01:38:44.520 --> 01:38:48.359
it's been my favorite for since before
you were so, we're gonna do Monster

1578
01:38:48.399 --> 01:38:53.279
Squad at my birthday, which is
September, early September. As far as

1579
01:38:53.359 --> 01:38:57.079
nineteen sixties and seventies, I mean, I'm down. I would love to

1580
01:38:57.119 --> 01:39:00.359
pull some order over onto the show
for sure, because I have been into

1581
01:39:00.359 --> 01:39:02.479
a lot of noir lately from the
forties and fifties, and I think some

1582
01:39:02.520 --> 01:39:05.079
of those would make pretty good episodes. And some of them are an hour

1583
01:39:05.119 --> 01:39:10.560
and fifteen minutes long. That's very
common actually. And then we have one

1584
01:39:10.600 --> 01:39:14.560
from a go Wow, this is
a lot of recommendations. Oh okay,

1585
01:39:14.640 --> 01:39:16.680
we have one from our good buddy
Eric Whiting. Oh, mister Whiting,

1586
01:39:16.800 --> 01:39:19.560
Yeah, not only a listener of
the show, but a good friend of

1587
01:39:19.560 --> 01:39:26.039
mine. My editor often assistant director
on films, and the headline is the

1588
01:39:26.039 --> 01:39:30.359
subject line is movie options for future
episodes. Okay, this is actually a

1589
01:39:30.359 --> 01:39:34.399
really good list. I'm excited.
Longtime listener, first time emailer. Here

1590
01:39:34.439 --> 01:39:38.680
are a handful of movies that could
be good choices for future episodes. Some

1591
01:39:38.840 --> 01:39:42.399
are favorites of mine, some are
ones I don't often find podcasts about.

1592
01:39:42.439 --> 01:39:46.119
All are ripe for discussion and reaction. Hell yeah, first one Blood Simple

1593
01:39:46.319 --> 01:39:53.399
Yes, Second One, Cable Guy
Yes. Third, Cecil Be Demented.

1594
01:39:53.600 --> 01:39:57.840
Yes, forever this one. I've
not heard a Flight of the Intruder from

1595
01:39:57.920 --> 01:39:59.920
nineteen ninety one. That's a solid
flick, I think, and I think

1596
01:40:00.119 --> 01:40:02.760
just watched it recently because I follow
Whiting on Letterbox. That looks good too.

1597
01:40:03.000 --> 01:40:06.880
Maniac from nineteen eighty Yeah, we
do Maniac. Nope from twenty twenty

1598
01:40:06.920 --> 01:40:09.760
seven, I would love to do. No. I Love Nope as well.

1599
01:40:10.319 --> 01:40:14.399
No Speratu, the Werner herd z
Og remake I'll Be Down Seconds from

1600
01:40:14.479 --> 01:40:18.359
nineteen sixty six. That is a
political thriller. I want to say.

1601
01:40:18.399 --> 01:40:23.199
I can't remember Serpent in the Rainbow
from eighty eight. I fucking love Surfring

1602
01:40:23.239 --> 01:40:26.119
the Rainbow ooh, this one's really
and Small Soldiers from nytwo. Yeah,

1603
01:40:26.159 --> 01:40:31.479
I love Small Soldiers of course my
birthday movie actually hell oh, and whatever

1604
01:40:31.479 --> 01:40:34.439
gets them away from Slaughter High.
Yeah, yeah, you'll take that one.

1605
01:40:34.720 --> 01:40:39.159
Since they come up in discussion a
lot. One of the original three

1606
01:40:39.239 --> 01:40:43.279
Jack Ryan movies could also be a
great choice. Patriot Games is the most

1607
01:40:43.319 --> 01:40:45.560
nostalgic for me. I love patriotri
Games. I need to revisit the Jack

1608
01:40:45.600 --> 01:40:49.479
Ryan series. Hunt for at October
was probably the one that I watched the

1609
01:40:49.520 --> 01:40:56.680
most, though, Growing Up Fair
fair enough. And then the last line

1610
01:40:56.720 --> 01:41:00.560
is if you're willing to break the
availability rule the cook a thief, his

1611
01:41:00.640 --> 01:41:03.319
wife and her lover from nineteen eighty
nine, I just so happen to have

1612
01:41:03.359 --> 01:41:08.000
that on Blu Ray and Happiness from
nineteen ninety eight. I don't know about

1613
01:41:08.039 --> 01:41:10.800
that. I mean, if we
don't want to review Happiness, we could

1614
01:41:10.800 --> 01:41:14.520
at least review like Palindromes or something
Welcome to the Dollhouse or Welcome to All

1615
01:41:14.560 --> 01:41:17.079
House tat Salons. I don't wrong
Whiting. I love happiness, you know,

1616
01:41:17.119 --> 01:41:21.560
I love happiness. That is just
a tough one. It's too close

1617
01:41:21.600 --> 01:41:26.279
to home on account of you know, Dave being a uh shut up what

1618
01:41:26.720 --> 01:41:30.039
That movie is a tough watch for
anybody. And also, like you said,

1619
01:41:30.079 --> 01:41:33.159
availability wise until Criterion supposedly puts out
that new four K, I don't

1620
01:41:33.159 --> 01:41:39.520
know when it's gonna get available again. You want to tune a sandwich?

1621
01:41:41.239 --> 01:41:43.159
All right, Well, we're gonna
get out of here, guys, but
