Un chapuzón, con el habito, tu serie favorita y en medio de tu siesta.
¡Ey! ¿Has visto esta?
No sabes la de planazos que hay este verano en Guésville Parkesur,
con ciertas obsesiones con DJs, clases de yoga, talleres con marcas y actividades con niños, te apuntas.
Un sueño de verano,
bailo es fin Parkesur.
And the an's line I shit you not is oh really you're gonna pretend Jesus didn't exist after all those TV documentaries and news stories'caps you're gonna say it's a lie. Look at these memes on Facebook. Jesus is real.
I'm sorry. How many likes? How many shares?
Not awful. Movie. movie movie
Welcome back to the game cast where each week we sample another selection from Christian cinema because somehow We still don't know any better. I'm your host no illusions and sitting to my immediate left
Is my good friend Heath and right he's welcome back. Thanks Noah. You know what?
Doesn't matter what What's that?
Why we decided to catch Americans working as Russian spies.
It seems like we're losing focus on the being Russian spy part.
Can we talk about anything other than this movie?
That'd be great.
Right, yeah, what do you think about Z's?
You can talk about it.
Yeah, you're cracking up for two for the week. All right, and cut.
Yeah.
Sitting 81 miles to my right.
Of course, it's my bad friend Eli Bosnick.
Eli, welcome back.
We missed you, sir.
No, it's good to be, it's terrible.
Be back.
It is.
It is.
I can't take anymore breaks.
Two breaks of the show was enough.
I'll be here forever.
And yeah, you just lost your immunity to these movies here.
I really felt like I did.
It may have just been that this one was particularly bad.
Let's find out.
Tell us what will we be breaking down today?
We watched The sobbing stone
It's the story of four adults learning to read at the same time is acting in a movie
And a rock is there
It's the fucking worst it's a movie about four people watching a rock
It really is for an hour and 15 minutes of this hour and 15 minute movie
We watch people watch a rock
Jesus any lie
How bad was this movie? Well, it was the fucking worst. No, I think it's the worst
The worst worst movie I've ever seen
Zero seconds of it were fun to watch and I need
another vacation. Now you just said you don't get you don't get any more of those. Sorry,
you know, I've got it on good authority. You can't take any more of those. Yeah. No,
my best worst was almost best worst series of May. I called us Eli made for the movie
before I watched it. Right? Like Eli, like, like, you like almost always watch these
movies first and he's messaging me on Facebook, like, guys, I'm really sorry. A lot of people
were asking us to do this. Who are you people? Are you fucking serious? Hands up. There
they are. Get them. All right. Now, in honor of this movie should we just you guys feel like we should just yell our lines at each other for the rest of the show
Yes
You're gonna look you know
Have a
No, Santa Brown that is every bit as meaningful as any line in this film any line
meaningful is any line in this film.
Any line.
Yeah, holy shit.
It's all my, my notes transcribed word for word made into a movie, right? Yeah, no, it's what it's like to read when I type.
There are so many moments where it felt exactly like that.
Like people were reading Eli notes, but didn't realize you had to sort of improv
around the typos, right?
Because there was so many times
we're like, wow, those words don't add up. There was even a point in the movie where like
one character says a line and the other's supposed to repeat it back to her. Like, you know,
you know, people in movies are always like tasting the flavor of the words that you just
said, but she repeats it back differently because the way the original actress said it
didn't make any fucking sense. She's like, Eli, what are you?
Yeah.
All right.
Now, I have a feeling the answer is yes, but is there anything you want to nominate this
one for being the best at being the worst at?
Yeah, I'm going to say best worst questions by scientists, allegedly scientists.
So they're studying this fucking rock.
Can I just spoil it now?
Can I like spoil the soil by all means?
By all means.
Yeah, so they're studying a rock that makes noises related to Jesus.
And this team of scientists is listening and then asking nonsense questions after they
hear, it's just like, was that sentence from the rock of power and drum man a plan I didn't kill Jesus the DNC frame you know it's not a
hell of a fuck this is confusing I can't read oh my god right so what we've got here basically
for the entire movie is for scientists studying a mysterious rock but the person who wrote
this movie couldn't be bothered to even think up like
Labcoats, right? Like they're they do no science in this fucking movie. They they this is how he thinks science works
Apparently everyone sits around and thinks real hard. Yep out loud. Yeah, so because he's not smart enough to make any of the
Connections and we're gonna get to it, but any of the connections to like why this might be Jesus
they had just asked fucking insane questions that lead them to Jesus he answers is like you hear that dripping that must be blood dripping from a crucifix on
Oh, that's the best guess
Throughout the movie at one point they're just like oh no, it's blood
guess throughout the movie and at one point they're just like, oh no, it's blood. Yeah, it's like right zebra blood dripping onto a second zebra that pulled a blood. No,
all right, just relax. And that would not be the most ridiculous conclusion they draw
based on the noises. I'm not going to get there, but there is a most insane conclusion
that they draw. I'm going to let it, I'm just going to let it play out because there's
not a whole hell of a lot of this movie has to offer. But yeah, wow, it's, it, it, you won't be disappointed
audience. Trust me. I was going to go with best worst two co-que. All right. So at one
point, there's two people arguing in this move. And all points, there are two people arguing
in this movie. But in one of those arguments, the, and the black lady, she basically says,
you say I'm a bigot, but what about the blacks? That's how bad is it is.
Yep. I'm going to go with best worst. I didn't say that. Yes, you did. No, he fucking
didn't. I'm watching the movie. Here's the character in this movie.
Who in a multitude of times to the extent that I like called my wife into the room and was
like, Hey, honey, will you watch this scene and tell me if this sentence appears and you
see me like slack out and start to phone.
I don't know.
I just don't like chicken parmesan and they'll be like, so you're saying you hate chicken
parmesan and be like, I didn't say that and they'll be like, yes, you did
and he'll be like, yes, I did.
No, he did.
Yeah, right.
No, he did not.
It's like the, like the writer couldn't be bothered to read two sentences back, right?
No, that is what he said.
Isn't that something like that?
Worst, worst, worst movie.
Oh, worst movie.
I don't think I'm quite going to give it that.
And the only reason I'm not is because it's
only only an hour and 15 minutes long.
Right.
Like if this was feature length, maybe, but it gets real close.
All right.
Well, I think Eli was pretty clear about his needs here.
So we're going to pause for a four minute vacation and when we come back, we're going
to break down all the yellow talking in the same room for an hour and 15 minutes that
is the sobbing stone and got awful movies.

You know it as well as I do.
Right.
Right.
That, um, that's his thing.
You wanted to see me?
Um, yeah.
Okay.
So here's the thing.
It's about your play.
Give it to me straight.
You know, I always want the straight truth from you, no matter what the answer.
Right. So, so we read it and we're pretty sure, give it to me straight.
You know, I want the straight truth from you no matter what the answer.
Um, those same sentence. Yeah, yeah, anyway, we're pretty sure that you're an alien doing a
bad job of pretending to be a person. Do you get that
alone? Outrageous. Why I never, if I ever thought I never would never. Okay. You have
a tentacle poking out of your face right now. Get the road alligator. And we're back for the breakdown. And we're going to start off on a horror movie opening where we're back for the breakdown and we're going to start off on a horror movie opening
where we're looking at a very scary lunch box.
That definitely goes on the new bingo card.
Yes.
If you want something supposed to be scary that isn't no shit.
Topperware.
But but evil topperware. But, but evil, topperware.
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
And of course, the music is that they're trying for that horror movie low, slow, no thing.
But it's just one note really low with occasionally like the sound of a drill in there.
Yeah.
And it's supposed to be, there's a periodic table also supposed to be like science
and horror movie at the same time. And they're not pulling it to get such a like, oh,
oh, cook, why?
Speaker, be
Speaker, be
Speaker,
Speaker,
Speaker,
Also, we should point out that the credits like the actual like names
that are coming up on the screen look like you just beat a video game in 1993.
And yeah, so I guess we're looking at the high school science lab where all of this
movie will take place.
Yeah.
And to give you an idea of how bad the camera work in this movie is going to be as the camera man is panning
in a circle around this lunch box full of rock he literally accidentally bumps the camera
and trying to do that pan and they kept the shot.
Yeah, they kept the fuck down.
That's going to look bad.
No, it's good.
They kept every shot.
Yeah, right.
Exactly.
They kept every word that was written, every shot that was taken.
There were no retakes in this motherfucker, but it's nice of them to just let us know
right up front that yeah, no, this is vultures of horror levels of bad guys.
It really is.
Shot in the same style as a sexual harassment workplace video.
You know.
All right. shot in the same style as a sexual harassment workplace video.
All right.
So we we cut from this creepy science lab to a roomful of important people in suits looking intently at a pebble.
Yeah, they look like the extras that got cut from Dr.
Strange love.
Yeah.
They're all sitting around.
Pouting about it.
And it really has this whole like, well, Michigan, Jay frog ain't singing shit now.
Is he kind of a feel?
Because they're all just their way for this rock to do something.
Yeah.
But apparently the rock has been making noises.
But apparently the rock has been making noises. These, this group of, I don't know, government science astronauts, I don't know.
This group of people is trying to record the sound of the rock crying, but for some reason
it doesn't show up on tape.
Yeah.
And so the first thing we hear is a cry, I guess.
Yeah.
The rock starts crying.
The rock crying. Rock crying.
And one of the scientists, ladies,
she says, I haven't heard a man cry like that
unless he's doing something terribly wrong.
So she has a vast body of experience
with men crying about horrible, different horrible.
I wanted somebody to ask her about that.
I'd be like, okay, so assault crying.
Like, and caught cheating.
Wow, wow.
Cheating with a child party trick at the Christmas party. She's like, okay, okay.
I'm turned around. Someone cry. Any cry go. That's a child molester cheating with a child.
Give me another one. Give me another one. Oh, morning for a parent. Nice. Nice. I can always tell with you, Carol.
And we need to talk about this crying.
Yes.
Yes, please.
So spoiler alert, this crying is Judas crying over the fact
that he's betrayed Jesus.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
And I don't know why I pictured Judas' cry not as,
I'm gonna use the term, bitch like, because if you knew a grown man who cried like this, for any reason, including betraying
Christ our Lord and Savior in the Garden, you and the man, you get it the fuck together. It is me having a panic attack in Dwayne Reed level.
It's everything. Sir, why are you lying down in the out? Don't worry about it.
You're ruining your tuxedo. You're getting married today, man.
Well, and that's the thing though, is that this cry like everyone in this movie reacts to it
They have to go like oh my god. It's such profound human suffering captured in that cry
Oh, it's so desolate and haunting and it I, that gets nice. Yes, true. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah And this is the first, these are different scientists than the one we're going to spend
the whole movie with, but this is the first example of we that we get of people sitting
around asking the dumbest possible fucking questions.
But right now they're discussing what kind of cry it is.
Oh, oh, can I say my favorite quote from this scene?
Oh, please.
It's like sound waves floated through the air and attached to this rock.
Yeah.
Sound traveling through time and space, just like lightning.
That was my favorite quote from the.
Yeah.
So you mean everything?
Yeah.
What travels through not time and space?
What are you talking about?
Takians and Star Trek. Oh, yeah, no, that's a perrequisite for thingness, the ability to travel
through time and space. Yeah, but that's okay. And that's another thing that's going to be a bit
of a theme in this stupid fucking movie is that they don't know any of the science at all. And this is, this is me four days of torture later,
being asked to describe space exploration.
I'm just like, I don't know.
And they put fire under it and then they send nerds
into space and their phones, get softer or something.
Yeah, no, but except that you have some basis of knowledge.
This is, this is like up, go or five five if he didn't know what he was talking about.
Um, so yeah, like one guy's yelling, get me the world's best blind sadness and path.
We need to figure this out.
Another person is going like, I know what if it's like lightning, you know how you see
lightning first and then you hear it.
Maybe the sound was we're hearing them from the rock,
but they're not reaching the tape recorder yet.
You know, cause sound travels at a different speed than sound.
And then what are the other scientists goes,
but where's the light blast?
Yes.
Where's like, where's the DeLorean then?
Pay attention, lady.
Really?
But where's the shit to what?
Patrons, listen to me very carefully.
I promise you this, if we make it to $3,000, I will record me, Heath and Noah standing
around a room just being like, what the fuck did you just say?
Or that's a nonsense sentence you just said.
Do you know that was a nonsense sentence?
And then I will splice it into the footage of this movie.
And I will put a new version of the movie called the sobbing stone and Heath, no, and
Eli's questions on YouTube.
I will do that for you.
I will do that for you.
That's my crazy billionaire remake is just one character going, what?
Are you high? Yeah, no, they're theories. You're a viola writer whose brain
is actively leaking out of his head as he types. And then they have to have the argument
about whether or not to dissect the rock, but you'll kill it. They also have a crazy screaming fight and miss one of the crimes. Yes. He's like,
well, Carol, if you weren't such a fucking core and she's like, I don't like you been in
this room for four seconds. Yeah. Yeah. No, there's a lot of unnecessary screaming
at each other. And this fight is over like, this lady just wants to yell in bitch and the guys that
can you quiet down the rock is yelling at us or something.
And she's like, I'll quiet down when I'm done yelling.
It's like brainstorming in middle school.
The whole science thing here, it's like a writer's room of middle school kids yelling
at each other.
Some of them are stupid, all of them are stupid.
Just every idiot kids idea has to get you.
It's the worst.
Yeah.
Oh, Jesus.
Yeah.
So they hear a crowd and some of them are going like, I just, I heard a voice and I'm like,
yeah, that's what crowd noises are made of.
His voices anyway, but I'm glad you pointed that out.
And then when I'm like, but one of those voices sounded familiar, that's
gonna matter later. Let me spoil this because they draw this out to the end of the movie,
but if you think about it, it's the stupidest reveal ever. The spoiler here is that the
voices in the crowd are them. I don't know about you. I can recognize my own voice and pretty
clearly would go. That sounds like me, you guys. I don't know if you know that, but that's um, yeah, my voice. Right. I recognize my voice. I reveal built off of the fact that
just no one bothered to bring it up, right? Yeah, they were all like something's familiar. I'm done
with my idea. All right. So now we had to we cut to the head smart guy. I have a mis agent USA for the
rest of the movie because I was, it was, he was all hat to me. I, I call him jazz rabbi.
If you told me he was watching, he's sad. I'd be like, sure. I get it. Yeah, but they can't handle this tone.
He needs to call in a fixer.
He needs the wolf.
Also, by the way, while he's standing out in the yard here, there's lightning punctuating
the or thunder rather punctuating the really dramatic lines that happens at the exact
same time as the lightning.
I'm like, guys, you just said you knew how this worked. They do. So, but he's decided that this rock needs to go to
the psychic researchers. This is a professor. Oh, yeah, yeah, we will find out later. That's
his job. And, and yeah, he's like, yeah, we'll have to take these guys to the psychic researchers.
Science has failed us.
We all sat in a room and science the shit out of this and didn't come up with any
answers.
So now we have to go to psychic researchers.
And, but as he's wrapping up this phone call, he hears the rock and now it's making a whipsound.
And I wanted so bad for him to come back and like the pool guy's there with his wife and they're like, fuck, I thought you were at the school today. See now all we
know is that it's whipping, shouting and crying noises. It could be me and NYU at this
point. Like it was no.
If there were shitty pigeon noises like 20 seconds after this, we'd know.
So yeah, but he walks in. He ominously looks at the rock during the whipping noises. You know, this is like 20 seconds after this, we know.
And so yeah, but he walks in. He ominously looks at the rock during the whipping noises.
And then he slides it angrily off his desk, but like, but like it's a remix.
Like we get what can only be described as a rub rub rub replay of him.
Oh, replay of him. Lock over. Like a kid scoring a soccer goal in like a serial commercial for me.
He's like, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good,
good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, the amount of time that was left. She says, it was early.
Yeah, I was watching that clock early this time around.
I really hope they didn't know about replay and they just had to pick up the desk of stuff
each time to get all those guys because they're idiots because that's very possible.
Yeah, given the script that we're dealing with, no, I can believe it.
So all right.
Now it's, well, first we got to have some sponsors of horror level lightning, but then it's time to go to the psychic researchers. So we're going to meet, where are these characters?
This is Michael Allen and Liz.
Yeah, we don't learn that. I don't think in the entire movie. Yeah, right, right. So, but
those are the four two guys, two gals, and they are going to be the four characters in this
movie, them plus just the case, the movie's curious.
Those are the names of your characters guys.
You guys are listening.
Or as I call them Donald Trump Jr. the black one, the fat one and the one who could be hot.
Wait, then which, who's the fat one?
If the fat one, the fat dude, there's Donald Trump Jr.
Well, no way because Alan and Alan and Michael are approximately the same.
There's no fat dude. That's ridiculous.
No, the fat one is the better than Michael and there's the fat one.
No, and it's by far the fattest one, but we don't say that. So he, no, there's,
but he's got the giant. He definitely is the gochee guy or not?
Gochee guy. Yeah. Alan. All right. All right. Alan. Yeah. He was, he was like, what I wait.
All right. So. All right. Now, by the way, throughout this entire movie, this entire
movie is going to take place in this room. Now it was originally it was a one act play
that they made into a movie and they didn't try to range it out at all. But it's a
science room. And you can tell because there's a giant periodic table hanging behind them.
This is the only accoutrement of science that you will see in this room.
It's the psychic elements in case you need them. Idiots. Because you know who needs to be reminded
of the elements all the time scientists
Yeah, they always have to go look them up on that giant table that they've got there. Yeah helium and then
Brilliant. Thank you. Thank you. Okay
Okay, so agent USA comes in. He's guy. He's like guys. I have this amazing talking rock
Science can't solve it. so I brought it to you.
And they're like, well, who's looked at it? He's like, oh, there's Swiss, the Brits.
Those are the only countries we can think of,
but others too.
Many, also, we should point out that jazz rabbi
is covered in sweat or olive oil?
Maybe olive oil.
I had, I feel like there was like a weird, this was a retake and they had an olive oil fight at
the end of the day and he was still covered.
I don't know what the deal was, but he is shiny like a new baby.
It is weird.
Yeah, so he's telling them all about the creepy rocky points out that it has three letters
carved onto it, an An s an O or a
C and then maybe an I. Why are they in English? Why would the letters be in English?
Somebody asks that right here. They're like, why are the letters in English? And he's like,
I don't know. And I'm like, okay, at least they recognize that that's fucking weird.
But no, that will never be explained. No, never will that make sense.
And then Liz, the blonde girl, she goes, well, how old is the rock?
What a stupid fucking question.
They also ask, right, when he hands it to me, they're like, all right, so what are we
solving?
Like, how it gives out sound or why or what the sound is?
And he's like, well, no, obviously not how we're scientists.
That's a W question. We do, no, absolutely. We do the W's not the H's. And that's like
focused on throughout this. Yeah. Right. Right. No, that, yeah, they're not really
super interested in the how. And also they have these weird stupid observations like, and
the black girl picks it up and she goes, Oh, it's cool to the touch. And I'm like, yeah, it's a rock.
They don't conduct heat.
Well, that's how rocks work.
What temperature is it to the smell?
Does it sound cold?
What are you talking about?
It's cold to the touch.
It's hard.
It's hard.
Yes, rock.
And can you keep up?
And?
Right?
Okay.
Yeah.
So and then while they're doing this, of course, Agent US at Rob, Jazz Rabbi is having crazy
Jesus visions.
And instead of saying, hey guys, I'm having crazy Jesus visions, he just starts screaming
blood and stuff like that at them.
He's just like, blood, blood, and they're like, great.
So we'll just get to work. I have no questions.
They act as though he's cranky. Yeah. Well, he usually brings donuts and he's
screamed blood over and over again. Hey, man, did you just scream blood? And he's like,
did I? I don't know. They're like, yeah, yeah, you definitely scream blood. Someone
screamed blood. We'll just move on from this as if that's not terrifying.
Like there's not too many things you can say by accident that are worse than screaming
of blood.
Like, orphan boy, like what are you gonna, I blacked out what happened.
You screamed orphan boy.
Doesn't sound like me.
Well, I keep in mind that like, okay, in the movie universe, they have a long standing
relationship with this character.
This is a person that they know and know well, but we don't know that yet.
So all we know is that there's these four psychic scientists, a guy walks in.
He's like, I hear voices from this rock that don't show up on tape and I scream blood and
freak the fuck out now.
And again, I trust you'll take this very seriously.
Yeah, I just wrote my notes.
Hey, pro tip, if you're standing in a room with a guy who says blood without knowing it, now and again, I trust you'll take this very seriously. Yeah, I just wrote my notes.
Hey, pro tip, if you're standing in a room with a guy who says blood without knowing it, leave that room.
Yeah.
He supplies 100% of the time.
Yeah.
So and then he goes to leave and and stops him.
She's like, she does the colombos.
She's like one more question.
If the letters are in English, what language is the shouting in?
And he doesn't know, but he doesn't know ominously.
And this is how badly timed this movie is.
He goes, you just figure that fucking rock out.
You hear me figure it out.
Oh, sorry, one other thing.
He comes back after his big shout.
He I said, do it, damn it or put your badge on my desk in the morning. And then he's like,
I'm so sorry. Don't damage the rock at any point. Yeah. It's a family thing like,
grandmother got it from her mom and, you know, just be careful. Don't do anything while you study it. Just study by guess
and check. Yeah, right. Just guess. Don't even check. Just guess about it. Study by having
big, yellow fights in front of the rock. Yes. I want you to raise the rock the way Eli
was raised. Can you do that? Yeah. So the super saying guy asked him to please not hurt his rock. And then he leaves
and they have to stand around going like, wow, he's usually so not crazy. In mental
illnesses, don't just suddenly start being exhibited. It must be a talking rock.
Keep in mind, keep in mind, they haven't hurt this rock hasn't done anything yet, right?
It's a belt, too. It's about to start crying for him and everything. But up until now,
like if you're writing this, even if eventually it's going to be a sobbing rock,
these people should be saying, like, yeah, I think maybe we should call a psychologist
or something, right? But not in this dumb fucking movie. Anyway, now we're going to flashback to this
scene. Okay. I was sure eventually this scene was going to make sense. No, no, there was
going to be a big on your. Oh, oh, why this scene existed. This is the weirdest, most
off where the fuck did this come from? seen in any movie we've ever fucking watch.
So this is a flashback where agent USA is arguing with this super reasonable evangelical guy
who is just asking questions, uh, who will never appear or be referred to in this film again.
No, it's Michael.
It's Michael.
It's the, uh, it's Michael.
Yeah.
It's the not as, it's the not as fat guy
according to Elon. Yeah. This is Donald Trump Jr. Oh, is that okay? Yeah.
So, is it a flashback to the professor convincing Donald Trump Jr. Not to believe in God in the woods?
Why are they in the woods? Well, you know, like when you, when you guys, you know,
trick people into being atheist, you're like, hey, let's go out in the woods.
And I'll tell you about not God.
And it works better.
You guys come to that.
All right.
First boy scouts.
So, okay.
Now this scene makes at least a little more sense to me now.
I'm going to, I'm going to withdraw what I said earlier about it being the least sensible
scene that we've ever seen, but it's still pretty goddamn senseless.
Um, so yeah, but, but basically agent USA is going like religion is all crap, Michael and Michael is
going like, yeah, no, but aren't we supposed to be scientists? Why why would we shut ourselves
off to, uh, to, uh, God and instead of being like, well, because it's logically contradictory
and there's no evidence to support it. And that's not how science works. You don't just make shit up and pretend it's true.
He just has to yell, you know, because Jesus fucked my dad.
He's thing is, don't you think it's funny, Michael, that Christians have an infinite God,
but believe in limited, limited, wait, give me a second.
God is infinite, but the Christians are not. There's only
seven.
That's the sound is so good. I ran a pass my wife and I was like, what?
What?
Also, Michael, stop screaming blood when I'm done.
Yeah. And then I guess they finish up that conversation and get back to building the fort.
They were, I don't know what the, okay.
So that seems over.
It mattered a lot.
And it only mattered because God damn it.
All the other scenes happen in the same room.
So okay, fine, get us outdoors one time.
Now we're back to the psychic researchers,
and this is the first time we really see how they science,
which is you stand around and gas
until everybody agrees on something.
And to say that these lines are nonsense,
is an insult to nonsense.
Yes.
I cannot emphasize enough how nonsense,
the words that come out of these people's faces are.
Well, and also just in case it wasn't annoying enough, they have this only in the left headphone
rain track the entire time in this movie. I don't know if either of you guys noticed that.
Why would they pan that to the I don't you know, maybe you focus it a little on love.
You don't just put it.
You only rain to your left.
That's not like a cartoon rain cloud that you just stepped out of.
So I stepped to the right.
That's never a thing.
So okay.
And just to give you an idea, how poorly this this is written, I kind of feel like maybe
we've already given you an idea.
But Anne and Anne is like, I'm going to go get some coffee.
Liz, would you like to come and get some coffee and the two of them leave?
All right, very clumsily leaving the two men in the room by themselves.
And I thought, okay, well, this is where the rock's going to start crying.
And this is where the rock starts crying.
But the two women come back into the room while it's still crying.
So there was never any reason for them to leave.
Yep.
And they don't have coffee.
No, they don't.
They leave for coffee like six minutes later.
They what the scene that we missed is them walking into the hall, finding perfect cups of coffee,
doing them like shots, throwing up the cups.
So yeah, so the rock has its little panze-ass cry and somebody goes, should, uh,
Alan says, should we make a record of this?
And Michael's like, yeah, let's not go overboard with collection of data.
Nice.
No times and dates.
It's spontaneous.
That's stupid.
We will not do that.
Yeah.
If we think about the time dimension,
we'll be losing focus on length, width,
depth of sound,
don't be an idiot.
Okay, Saddle, no time data.
Yeah, right.
Because the guy says, should we record what time we hear it speak
and what it says?
And the guys like, fuck time,
the guy already said it's random,
just write down what you hear.
Like, yeah, don't have too much data.
You wouldn't want that.
And then the blonde girl says that we start here
and what will eventually turn out to be
the Jesus's blood dripping off the cross sound.
But of course it sounds just like a faucet because that's where they actually got the
sound.
And the girl says there's something weird about that drip.
What?
The Kubrick would have gotten real blood dripping.
That's the difference between a problem.
And again, she's like, I don't know what kind of dripping could it be?
And I go, what do you mean what kind of dripping could it be?
Blood, syrup, urine, water, recomb, liquid hats.
Maybe it's a prank.
What does this mean?
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, again, the questions are all so fucking stupid.
Liquid hats.
Why not liquid hats?
You melt down some hats? Did you get them out of
the sleeves? Like a hot juice. You've never had a good hot juice.
A man who's a lot of juice, hot juice. Oh, yum. Oh, yeah, some guys might have some juice
to squeeze out. He is wet. He is wet. Jews are juicy So, and then they start asking, okay, they're like, well, obviously the rock is recording
things, but why isn't it recording us? And they're like, and one of the characters even
goes, how do you know it isn't? And the other one goes, I just feel like it's not to which
he says, yeah, no, me too, me too, proven. Well done. It isn't recording us.
Wait, play it back. What? What you, you what?
Is the camera on? Also, I love at this point, Liz, the the blind girl, she like starts looking
around and they're like, what are you doing? She's like, I'm checking for hidden speakers
and they're like, Oh, come on, it's obviously a rock. If this was candid camera and the
movie was just over now, like James Randy walks
out of the back. There's a speaker there and there and I didn't trick you. Good job.
We're done. And also Anne picks up the rock as she goes, it's not even warm. Why would
you? Like cause usually when rocks yell at you, they get hotter, right? It's like burning, she's wearing headphones and they slowly
catch on fire. Oh, sorry to much music. Also, okay. And the professor had said when he
gave him the rock that it talks, that it makes more sounds at night than during the day.
And so now Alan suggests he's like, well, maybe it talks at night because it doesn't want to, because people aren't talking as much,
it doesn't have to shout at night.
He he he.
Fucking that rocks.
The shy guy at the meeting, excuse me,
I just really wanted to go over the financials
for the third year, that's fine, we're taking a 10,
okay, we'll take a 10.
He he he.
He he he.
I'd like to be on the next part when we get back from,
oh, he he. He he he. I'd like to be on the next part when we get back from Oh.
Also, by the way, anytime we have to pan over to the rock, we do it via shaky hand held.
So now we get a new sound from the rock.
We get creepy laughing dwarves for a second.
And then Ann leaves for more coffee.
More coffee.
Just like, Hey, Liz, you want to go get some coffee?
I'm like, it's been a more minute and 40 seconds.
I actually scrolled the movie back to see.
It's been a minute and 40 seconds since they came out back in from coffee.
So yeah, yeah.
And then we have like they are like, okay, I guess we'll have to listen to the rocks and
shifts.
And we end up with this long who's going to ride with who sequence?
Oh my God, it's so, it's, it's the most delicious level of bad writing, right?
It's so obviously like take one writing class and they go, you understand why nobody
gives a fuck about this and you don't need it in your script, right?
Oh, right, excellent.
But because this person has never gotten feedback from anyone except Christ in his heart,
he's like, well, I'm going by Schmender Sins.
If you want, I can drop you off there.
No, it's fine.
I'll catch an Uber.
I don't know.
I don't trust Uber.
No, Uber's totally fine.
I like lift better.
Shut up, Kyle. Nobody likes it. You're weird.
We've been talking together for like 20 minutes. Should we all address each other by name right
now? Yes. Yes, Michael. We should. Okay. And you are Liz. I am Liz. Thank you. Alan Alan I am Liz I will drive with you they might as well do an icebreaker
I'm Alan the alligator
Okay, okay Alan the alligator
Dave the donkey
I forgot yours I'm so sorry
It's cuz I'm black in it I'm bringing apples bananas.
All right.
All right.
So then we cut to blonde girl and I guess fat guy, Alan, outside that room talking about
the last scene.
Now I have to point these two lines out.
These are amazing.
His actual line is I have a bad feeling
about this. Two lines later, her actual line is, wow, you do have a bad feeling about
this. Jesus. I spaced out during this scene. I had to rewind. This was the first, but
not the last time that I would just like blank out large chunks of this movie
in my head.
Like boring community theater actors.
All right.
Well, you did miss one of the wildly racist accidentally wildly racist one of the worst
ones we've had in any movie we've ever done.
Alan goes, yeah.
So it's like, it's like sobbing and then dripping and then a mob, the
stones making those, it sounds like a lynching.
What?
That was your first thought.
Yes.
Sobing dripping mob lynch.
Linch.
They play him some footage from the Super Bowl, cheering. Oh, that's a lynching.
Okay.
Yeah, what are those things?
A pattern and it's not with the sounds.
Red, the blood of old.
That's a lynching.
Obviously, layman's.
Sounds like there's good people on both sides of the mom.
The same.
All right.
And now the movie is going to go full insane.
You thought the movie had already gone full insane, but we haven't had anyone randomly
argue about Jesus yet.
We're about to correct that oversight.
So Noah, question, because you're sort of the better writer than me.
What would be the best way to introduce a conversation in your mind about someone
being Christian? Oh, well, what I would do. And I think this would be sort of the masterful
way of doing it is have them start to walk out of the room and have another character randomly
just yell at them, why the fuck do you love Jesus? You bitch. You stupid bitch. That would have been my, my, that would have been my take on it.
Luckily, yeah, no, he knew what he was doing. God, Jesus, this was so fucking insane.
He goes, she goes to walk out and he's like, Hey, and I can't help, but, uh, notice that, uh,
you went to church last Sunday. It's like, oh, you saw that?
Is it, yeah, why didn't you tell me?
She says, and I quote,
because scientists don't believe in church.
He he he he.
Because scientists hate freedom.
Science is proven God is dead.
You bitch.
You bitch.
It's so fast.
Yes.
They immediately start screaming at each other.
He's like, you know that, and again, it's nonsense where it's like, you know words
of science never, no, God never, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, by the way, like they have said they say at one point that these characters
are psychic researchers, right? So they would that wouldn't be scientists. That would
be ghost busters. No, but, but they never do anything psychic. They never research any
psychic phenomenon. And at a certain point, I honestly started thinking that guy thought he was saying physics.
Right.
Like the writer had no idea that psychic wasn't a real science research field.
There's also this amazing moment where he's like, wait, when did this come about?
And she goes, life, cuz life, he goes, that's such a crutch. She goes,
is it any more of a crutch than sex, drugs and hip hop music?
What?
I'm black and I'm allowed to say hip hop music also. She's been there. What she is conveying
to us is that she's been there and done that with hip hop music. Yes.
Just takes a Kendrick Lamar CD and slowly snaps it in half.
Mm-hmm.
I've heard this one.
Also, again, just I have to underscore the writing in this movie.
He says to her, what did you turn into a Christian like a Christian as a definition?
What?
Yeah.
Right. See? We just think of then going, I a definition. What? Right.
See, we just think us in going, I'm sorry, what?
What?
It's going to be great.
Again, that's exactly like if I read that in Eli's notes, I would say, Oh, he, like,
Steve wrote one thing and he wrote another thing over it and he didn't fully, but that's the
line they ended on.
That could have been our entire notes, just all of us.
What?
That could be our entire document. Also, there's this amazing moment. So they're fighting. She's been there and done that
with hip hop music. And he makes the point that Christians are probably right, but they aren't good
talkers. So yeah, right, right. Yeah, his argument against the existence of God is Christians are a bunch of dicks
Because that's Jesus was a loser. He really goes in on Jesus at one point. He actually calls Jesus a loser
He actually uses those terms. Yep
And he gets pretty flustered here and this is where we get the like one of the worst little little phases of I can't read
But I'm trying to yell lines that are written down that I tried to memorize, but I didn't do well. And it's just like Eli wrote it. It's like,
it's like an illiterate Chris walking with like random causes to make no sense. But it's, it's
the worst. Oh my god. And so he like, he doubts Jesus for just a second. And the
and's line, I shit you not is, oh really, really you're gonna pretend Jesus didn't exist after all those TV documentaries and news stories
Document you had to undercut documentary the argument from her all
You might as well said well after all those blog posts and snap-o caps. You're gonna say it's a lie
Look at these memes on Facebook. Jesus is
snap of caps you're going to say it's a lie. Look at these memes on Facebook. Jesus is real. I'm sorry. How many likes? How many shares? And I was like, the guy Michael, every
line he's, he has this long monologue about how much he hates Jesus, but every line in
it is delivered like the last line
in the scream, right?
It's like he keeps thinking the teleprompter is done, but it's not.
It's like somebody's speeding it up and then slowing it down and then stopping it.
Also, he can't read.
So, yeah, it's the best.
And then the peak of their argument is that Michael would have let Jesus get crucified. And there's this, they're
shouting at you, saying, you, oh, you totally would have let Jesus get crucified. Why
didn't anybody stop it? And then he goes, oh, you're just the perfect person, aren't you?
Christians all they do is preach love. But then they sit there getting fat. And it pans
over to Anne, who is a heavy set, fullbodied beautiful woman and you can feel the actors
be like, I feel like we shouldn't end it.
Anne be like, I'm sorry, motherfucker, what did you say?
And you get my line.
Well, I just, I just get fat.
That's my line.
Please say, get all you know, don't, don't do the head thing.
You already started.
Yeah, he's mad at Christians for being fat and not dissimilar enough from events.
And I guess all that yelling has upset the rock.
I hope you two are happy.
Yeah, literally Alan comes in and he's like, great. You woke the rock.
It's picking it up. No, no, no, I'm picking it up the room.
Burping it. I read I read in Dr. Spock's book. We can't fight in front of the
rocks. You know,
would have been great if they furborized it. If they just like put it in the other room and didn't
listen to it for a while. I would have enjoyed it.
Yeah.
So you end up with weird kids, by the way.
We've been an equally interesting movie if the rockhead also just been in another room
where they couldn't hear it.
Yeah.
So, okay.
So Alan shows up and he's like, Hey, I've got overnight that you guys can leave now.
And Michael's like, Hey, I'm sorry for rage screaming at you for being religious.
And she's like, Yeah, no, I'm already over it somehow. Let's go fucking your car. Yeah,
right. And then Alan watches the rock. And we watch Alan do that in real time for a while.
And honestly, I would have had so much respect for this movie if the next hour of this movie was just him being like
Dolly do
That's such bullshit I can never get the little brownie square yeah every so many perks up with his pen. Oh, no. No. Let's part of the
car horn. If you are recording me, I hope whoever listens to this, and
enjoys that joke.
And again, wouldn't have been a less interesting movie. All right. So, but instead we cut
back to agent USA.
He is brooding on his board still thinking about that damn rock.
And this is where we meet his deaf daughter.
They were this was the most like they were dangling this daughter in front of Eli.
This was heavy.
Yeah, this is heavy eardraiding.
You probably shouldn't surprise people with deaf people's voices, especially very large deaf people's voices. Yes. Also, like, she's not a clear speaker. No. So I did not understand a line she said. He'd just be like, I understand.
And then she'd be like, huh, and he'd be like, you did, huh?
Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma. He'd be like, got it. Absolutely. With rice, please.
But every single time, ma, ma, ma, well, but like, look, they know that she's not understandable
because every time she speaks,
they just have him repeat what she just said.
He's like, you heard something, but you're deaf.
You heard voices?
Oh, vibrations.
But your ears have been dead for 20 years.
So you're responsible.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So any even says, but you've been deaf since birth, like she'd have forgotten when that happened. Yeah. Yeah. So, and he even says, but you've been deaf since birth like she'd have forgotten when
that happened.
Yeah.
Anyway, do deaf people sound deaf when they cry?
Do you think?
I don't know.
We got to ask the girl at an office party.
If we have any deaf listeners, cry for us into a mic and send it.
Yeah.
All right. Or if you have a deaf kid, because you're probably not deaf, I feel like this medium wouldn't work for you. But
if you've got one, make a crying, and send it to heat, because he doesn't check his
Facebook for like four months at a time. So in four months, he'll have forgotten this.
And I'll just be like, this is weird.
I'm a deaf person crying in my Facebook messages. All right, so now we have to check in.
We have to like check in with everybody at home.
So like we get Ann walking through the parking lot to her car and she suddenly hears this
banging sound of some sort.
I want to just stone to be walking behind her in a trench coat, like stalking her.
She looks back, she's reading a paper,
and switching sides to the street.
The daily granite.
So she's,
it would be the paper.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, absolutely.
No, yeah, exactly.
So she,
she,
so she hears scary sounds
or actually just sounds.
I mean, I guess metal banging
as you're walking through a city scape
is not like a particularly weird or ominous thing
And then we cut to blonde girl. She's at home
And she hears the crying
Which isn't coming from her TV or is it but she can't turn the TV off so I don't
I'm coming. I don't
What were they going for here?
Jesus often locks out your your remote
They he
Yeah, maybe yeah, no, that's what she starts here in the crying and she thinks maybe it's on the TV So she goes to turn her TV off the remote won't work
So then she goes up to the TV and turns it off with the button and
Then the crying stops when the TV goes off.
What the fuck were they going for?
I don't know.
As a matter of fact, later on, Liz will kind of point out that this scene makes no sense.
Yeah, I should be like, I don't know.
I thought it was coming from my TV, then it wasn't, which seems like that would negate
the plot of the rock.
But I got to wear my chammies in the movie.
Yeah.
Chammies.
Rock just crawls out of the TV at her.
That.
Oh, yeah.
I just thumbs to the floor.
It's the most boring.
You watch it.
If the time's come in, I will be there in two, maybe three million years.
Also, okay, so then we have to cut to angry atheist guy, Michael.
He's brushing his teeth. When suddenly he hears a dripping sound, which is just the kind of thing
that would freak you out when you were brushing your teeth.
A dripping sound.
He's brushing his teeth in what is obviously the real apartment of
someone in this movie and it makes me very very sad
Don't be wrong my apartment's covered in pug hair and like dirt and mold and various insects
But this apartment makes my apartment look downright clean and sheery
Yeah, so he wanders through the apartment a little bit
So and so you can try to find out where the sound is coming from.
And he looks at the faucet and the kitchen and it's not dripping.
And so what we're seeing is a faucet that's not dripping, but they're acting like it's
the killer that's behind the fucking door.
It's supposed to be scary.
And it's water dripping is coming from inside the house.
Yeah, where else would water drip coming out. I don't get right and it's a negative right?
It's a negative result. So it's like he looks by the corner and we have the big reveal that there's nothing there
All right, so and then and then we see three of the four of them
Shit up out of a dead sleep because apparently I deserve it. Well, except for whatever is Donald Trump, Jr.
Who was asleep in a chair?
Well, he sleeps in a chair.
Well, and honestly, I feel like it's because they were all in that same apartment and they
couldn't have it just be the same bed for a time.
They wake up next to each other.
It's like, wait, what?
They're doing the head to foot other. It's like, wait, what? They're doing the head to foot thing. Alright, so now
it's it's a rainy morning the next day. And Alan's been up all night listening to the
right. Well, actually, he hasn't been up because he's dead as a sleep when they got there.
And they're like, Alan, wake up. How was it? He's like, man, that rock wouldn't shut the
fuck up.
Well, it's amazing because he wakes him up by going, you sleep well, and this actor
doesn't know how to react like a person waking up. So he just like falls down several
sets of stairs.
The
he spends like 15 minutes.
He had his
Chevy chase. It's for day. Like he mimes a carpenter building stairs and
then falls down. Right over the top. He almost, he falls down onto the floor and then almost
falls up the, the counter beside him. And then he's like, no, wait, that's when falling
stops is when you're at the bottom. Falls into canoe and goes past the screen.
Down and that's all right. So down in the element. All right.
So and he said, he turns to Liz and he goes, Liz, you were right.
It does talk more at night.
And Liz never said that.
And the professor told them that when he showed up with the rock and the writer could have
looked back at the beginning of the script, but apparently couldn't be bothered to do that.
And then he goes, all right, guys, grab your notebooks.
It's been a busy night.
And it's like, didn't you have a notebook here, Alan? No, I memorized it. I memorized it because this
movie was written by someone throwing the pages off the back of a motorcycle.
Yeah, he's like, well, I can't be writing things down, listening to rocks and handling the
money all at the same time here
obviously. But here's what I heard. I heard sobbing, dripping, shouting voices running.
And this is where he says, I shit you not. This is the actual line. He says, I think the
running was at night though, because echo of fact suggested night.
That's the actual line.
I didn't make that up.
He also said it sounded like fast running.
Yeah.
Like the road runner taking off noise.
What's the fast run sound?
A narrator being like that runner was fast.
I hear someone shout on delay on delay.
Kill.
It was like, it was like, kill.
Yeah, and he also heard thumping other voices.
Pulling of bolts, is that what he said?
The crying, the mob, the drippy.
It was like a plantation.
What?
Yeah, I keep saying. I keep saying, and do my stepping outside.
I have some ideas of what I think it was.
I don't want to be comfortable saying,
I don't want you to get all, you know, you do that head thing.
Oh my God.
This one.
By the way, during this scene, I was Googling
healthy alternative to ramen noodles,
noodles by the way, so keeming noodles.
Yes.
In case anyone was wondering what I was doing while these people made insane guesses.
All right.
So, yes.
So they write it all down and they realize they're like, wait a minute, these aren't just
random sounds.
It's one recording that's mostly silence.
Yeah.
Okay. And then a bunch of them go around the circle, like asking different
stupid questions together, but they're at like, they're in different places and different
times that like, it's different times a day. There's different era cameras. It's snowing
in one and then like Liz is speaking in Italian with subtitles. It's
crazy. Like they, I don't know why they would do this.
Pirate. Yeah.
They're having different conversations. It's like someone doing their best mean impersonation
of a David Mammoth play.
Yeah. And this is also this is where they reveal to Alan and to each other that they all
heard the brock sounds even when they were at home that night.
And then Alan needs to go get some sleep and also have his microphone come through on both
God damn headphones.
I said, Alan needs to go home and buy a shirt that fits in.
And then, okay, so he goes to leave and Anne goes, wait a minute, aren't we forgetting
something?
The stone itself.
Fucking what?
How in what way are they forgetting that the thing they're talking anyway?
Yeah, but there's something that's familiar about those letters that are scratched into
it to Anne.
It's almost like she knew some alphabet game or a song about it that she learned when
she was a child anyway.
Um, and then she says, wait a minute. No, those three letters, I H and S, those are the
windows at my church. I'm like, those are not the letters that we said were on it earlier.
Nope. Nope. You just, you're just making shit up. And then Michael, of course, because
Jesus has come up in conversation has to scream and shout a whole bunch.
He's like, duh, fucking duh, it's IHC.
Yeah.
Which are also not,
he corrected her thing wrong that she got wrong.
Yes, right, you're right, yeah, exactly.
And again, it's in your script.
Jesus.
Yeah, okay.
And then they hear the crying again,
and they all have to talk about how profound and impactful
and not at all like a whimpering dog this cry is.
Oh, God.
Yeah, they specifically, they name adjectives a lot.
They're like, what, how what adjectives would you say
describe the crying?
They've done this like several times.
This time it's like, it's desolation.
And everybody's like, yes, desolat, that's perfect.
Write that down because we're scientists.
You know what, let's name other things that are desolate.
We can get desert, Chernobyl, China, crucifixes, crucifixes, we are desolate.
We are science-ing the shit out of this.
Yeah, and that's how they're gonna solve the plot, but not quite yet because now
Agent USA has to show up
And yell at him. Have you solved it yet? Have you solved the rock? It's like that's not it
I expected him to scream give me your badge and rock. Yeah
And this is just a tiny thing, but he gets up at one point and his chair goes like
The giant chair scraping sound. Nah, nah.
No, real or not.
No, not.
But yeah, he goes in and he's like,
did you solve the rock yet?
And they're like, no, but we're closer,
whatever the fuck that means.
And he goes, how much closer?
And like the guy's like, really?
Everything we say is crazy.
31 minutes? I don't know what's three of them. everything we say is crazy 31 minutes
We started doing this like 31 minutes ago the movie ends at one 15
So I imagine why I've been figured out by then I checked out there's two minutes of credits
Yeah, my notes are our 29 55
I played several games of
a hard stone. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my
yeah. No, this was a movie
where like I had no doubt that
each of us by the time the movie
and did knew exactly how long
in the credit started. You
know, you just started scrolling
down that little bar going like
maybe there's nine minutes
a. No, God, not nine minutes
of credits. But so this is
also where Jazz rabbi reveals
that even his deaf daughter can hear the voices.
And he says, Michael tells him, he's like,
well, it might not be any consolation,
but we're also hearing those sounds echo
in our brains when we're not here.
So if you're crazy, at least you passed it along,
it'll be fun.
Yeah, it's contagious.
Yeah.
What do you want to answerctus, Damit?
So he storms out of there,
and that is as close to suspense as we are ever gonna get.
So I figure we might as well pause there
for another break, but before we do,
let me give act three, the hard sell.
Will something happen?
Well, one of these characters exhibit a personality trait
and where's all the homophobia and transphobia?
Find out the answer to these questions,
and more.
Oh, it's coming when we return for the finished line
limping conclusion of the Sobbing Stone.
Don't you see guys the professor heard his own voice?
It's not possible.
I can't believe it.
Fuck, Cheyveth.
Get him.
Kill Jesus.
Holy shit, is that my voice?
It is.
Oh my God, Toads, that's totally your voice.
Kill him.
Crucify him.
Ooh, and that's your voice.
Can you believe that's your voice?
How is this possible?
I can do it.
Kill Jesus.
Oh my God, Jesus.
Boo. Boo.
Boo.
And that's your voice.
That's you.
No, I don't think so.
I'm pretty sure that's your voice.
Definitely you.
I hate it here in the desert.
It's just like stand.
Let's kill Jesus.
Yeah, dude, that's definitely your voice.
I'm pretty sure that's a hundred percent you.
I don't think so. That could pretty much be anybody. I mean, it sounds kind of
kind of kind of what? You know, like you, like you could probably be anybody's voice,
I guess, you know, yeah, yeah, you probably weren't there, I guess. Yeah, probably. That's
what I thought.
Take the rest of his shirt off.
Ooh, who do you think that was?
Don't, okay.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha a rock in the same room. And I could have used that same opening, regardless of where we took our goddamn brain. Drop the needle on this movie.
So now, Michael, he has to go back and tell everybody about that last scene with Agent
USA where we told him about the deaf daughter.
Yeah. So we saw the scene, we heard about the scene and now we're hearing about hearing
about the scene.
Yes. Yes. This is doesn't fucking matter. We already hearing about the scene. Yes. Yes.
This is doesn't fucking matter.
We already know to the third power at this point.
And like I was, I mean, honestly, at this point, I was just happy.
He didn't run in and just start screaming this line at everyone.
Um, and then he says, and in answer to Alan's question, yes, he's hearing sounds as well.
I'm like, he's the one that
told you guys about the sounds. Are you watching this same movie? Or are you also playing
hard stone?
Oh, dragon priest such a great text. That's what I had to say about this scene. Such
great.
Oh, the inner fire one. Oh, yeah, I was just storming it. Just storming it.
One turn. Yeah. So, okay. Now, Alan runs out to catch agent, you, uh, Jazz Rabbi before he's gone. And they have the creepiest conversation in this movie. So far,
this character has yelled blood without knowing it. And now he's going to be like, hey, man,
you ever murder anybody? Yeah. And Alan goes, no, have you? And he's gonna be like, Hey, man, you ever murder anybody?
Yeah, and Alan goes, no, have you? And he's like,
wasn't ready for follow up question.
No, I feel like I need to release a memo about how you feel about me before you find that out. Um, really with veterans. Bill, he was ramping up to an ask for but sex.
Like, you ever kill him?
No.
No, I mean, either so I use, if you think about it, even if we did inside of me, we'd
still be good people overall.
Yeah.
So, you know, just out of a trash can.
No.
He also says, I used to believe in science.
Yes. At one point. And the thing I was used to believe in science. Yes.
At one point.
And the other guy was like, oh, science.
And he's like, yeah, I'll list the science for you right now.
Big bang evolution, filler rights, that science, those three things are wrong.
That's what I meant when I said science.
Yes, that's what he said.
I just phased this through a wall.
Yeah, I mean, that guy was not breathing science.
That was.
Yeah, but yeah, what we're learning here is that he's losing his faith in science. And
by the way, the whole like, have you ever killed anyone question? What we're setting up
there is yes, we all killed Jesus. Do you think about it? That's what we're setting
up there. That's why he's asking him that again, the movie doesn't give you that just
yet. I've watched enough of these that I fucking know what they're talking up there. That's why he's asking him that again. The movie doesn't give you that just yet. I've
Watched enough of these that I fucking know what they're talking about. But yeah, if you play this out in reality
It's just me going, have you ever killed a man and you go, no, have you and me thinking about it for a really long time?
I
Wanted Alan so badly to be like, yeah, man, and I saw some shit
You mean like this today?
You mean like a lynching?
Oh God.
People's, I keep doing this.
I didn't lynch anyone.
I'm sorry, man.
You answered that too quickly.
Cheers to you, Rich.
Don't tell Anne, she gets weird.
Yeah, does the head thing, it feels, even though it's not, it feels very aggressive.
So fighty.
So he goes back upstairs, having gained no information.
So there's no point in that scene.
And Anne needs a break.
She has this whole like boy, I wish I was a smoker right now, because then there'd be
some reason for me to keep leaving the room in this movie.
She said she said I could eat a whole pack of cigarettes.
She basically does. She says, I'd down a whole pack.
Like, I don't even know the right verb for a smoker.
Spoiler, it's smoke.
For a smoker, the verb you would want there would be smoke.
The whole pack. And then Liz, the other one is just like, well, I would down all the cigars
because they are stronger. It's like a save by the bell episode.
Oh, she said, and the frequency with which Ann Wander's office says, Hey, Liz, do you
want to come with me? Makes me assume that they're snorting coke together. Like if these
were my co-workers, I would be like, okay, yeah, they've got, they got, she's got some powder or something.
But in this movie, there's no fucking reason for it at all. So, but just as they're leaving
the rock starts making whipping sounds again.
And then we get another one of the best questions. This is close to my favorite one. Yeah, you
guys heard that whip too, right? Cool. Was the whip hitting anyone? Do you think it was hitting anyone?
What? Like they might as well be dripping colored liquids into flasks. Like you said,
not hitting anyone. Great. Okay. Three drops of red. Three drops of red. And it's Judas.
It's Judas. Yeah, right. Is it hitting anyone?
Fucking what? Why would I want to get so badly for them to whip not Allen and then whip
Allen and you don't have to wear a ball gag for this.
Okay, Liz, do a cry for a whip and do a cry for not a whip. You're good at these at
the party, remember? Whip cry.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, water sequence. Okay. So now because they couldn't think of any science related things to do with it,
or even science related looking things to do, we're going to watch Michael push the rock
and then watch it some more for several minutes. This by the way, I went back and checked. This is long rock looking montage number four.
Yep.
And him watching him flick it is the most human moment on camera.
If you ever want to see human boredom and desperation and that actor just be like,
uh, pick.
Cut.
You don't know, man, you don't get to say cut cut. Well, like to he actually
drops it on the ground and then picks it up and puts it back. He doesn't find anything.
It doesn't do anything when it hits the ground. That's just also in the movie. I feel like
the director was just like keep rolling. That's fucking great. You dropped it. It's amazing. So organic.
Yeah.
This is like the give me the blood scene from there will be blood.
I just got to let it roll.
I can see what happens.
The scene was supposed to be over 20 minutes ago.
Yes.
Try to pick it up and fumble it.
No, I won't say it.
I won't say anything.
Just organic.
Whatever you were going to do.
Yeah.
The rock dropping and undropping. That was a standalone sequence.
And anyway, so, so Ann and Liz come back in, they turn to Michael, they go,
anything new and Michael says, and word bitch with you and your Christianity.
It's the craziest thing she goes, anything new and he goes, I wouldn't lie to you.
Fuck you for loving Jesus.
That baby Jesus in the eye socket.
I hate you.
Just boom, he's yelling at her for being Christian again.
This is the most painful scene I have ever watched.
Okay, transphobia.
You gotta talk about the transphobia.
Okay.
All right.
This is the two coque that I was talking about at the beginning.
She says, you Christians are so
hypocritical. She says, oh, like atheists aren't hypocritical. They're always worried about
animal rights and world peace instead of humans being dismembered in their own countries.
I feel like that falls under the banner of world peace. And then she says, and I quote,
I shit you not. This is a quote.
So we spoiled Americans go out in the streets and protest for the right to murder unborn
babies have same sex marriage and even for the right to for men to wear skirts.
So don't talk to me about hypocrisy.
It's like no bigotry.
Bigotry is what I wanted to talk to you about now.
With my dog, you think you're so high and mighty, but you're the one who wants
blacks and whites to in a breed.
W.
Oh, Michael.
Wait, what?
Oh, I'm a bad person.
They gave this line to the black character because they think you'd be
like, well, you know, but we're going to break that taboo because we recognize that bad
ideas are bad regardless of what race expresses them.
But most people will just let this fly. You would not say this in this movie. It was the
most out of the blue random bigotry. Now she'll do this again.
She'll actually have what may even be a worse random bigotry later on in this movie,
but I was so not ready for this. What position is the movie taking here? I don't like during
our big man skirt rallies that we have. We really need to be more clear about our anti-tourcher
stance during that. What do they think is happening? What do they think hypocrisy means?
Yeah. Do they think that there would be less starving children if we didn't allow trans
people to do this? Like if I jumping sidekick, Callie in the head, how many Indian kids get food that day?
I want to know because I'll kick the shit out of Ari Stillman. I just need a number.
How many how many Indian kids would Ari feed? That's a good question. Not a lot. Yeah,
they are pretty skinny. Yeah, I don't think it would work. Anyway, and then Alan comes in mid Jesus fight and starts bitching at
Liz. It's literally like pops out from the desk and he's like, I am also in the
house. We have a sequence going on in this room. I shit you not every possible pairing
of these four characters will yell at each other.
Right, every way you could combine those two people are going to yell at each other in this
in this scene.
And this peaks, of course, with Michael going, you're just like my mother.
And there's this amazing pause.
And again, when we remake this movie, it will cut to my character and my character will just go black
So weird lad and she's like why do you have a problem with me? This is and the black lady
He's like it's because you're like my mother. That's Alan's answer to that. Mm-hmm. What did he mean by that? Like, you need to knock before you enter a room. You knock.
And it's a good size. People should be bursting through doors and then laughing about the size of
the things they see. Mom, knock. What does that mean?
Mom, knock. What did that mean?
I've listened to my friends over. You just make the piece of bagels and you put it on your table. We said, if I was going to live here, I get my space.
You get yours. Honestly, that wouldn't have been
weirder. That that would have been less weird than the conversation.
Cause at least then I'd understand what someone was yelling about
So now Alan and Michael yell at each other Liz and Ann yell at each other. No fucking reason and then Michael
quits the show
He takes his ball and goes home. He just starts to walk off. He's like, you know what?
I'm sick and tired of this scene He takes his ball and goes home. He just starts to walk off. He's like, you know what?
I'm sick and tired of this scene.
I'm leaving.
And they're like, but you're in charge.
He's like, no, you're in charge now.
And he goes to walk out, but just then they hear the nail pounding noises from the rock.
And that stops everything.
Apparently, they're not used to the rock making these noises yet. And
then they get the crowd noises. Everybody gathers back around and and this time she felt
something something insane. And this is where Ann does her like she's supposed to swoon,
but you could tell this actress is like, I'll be damned if I'm falling all the way down
for this stupid fucking movie. I will shoo in to a chair.
She obviously fell down for the first take and the 48 minutes it took her to get up.
She just changed out of it twice.
She's drenched in sweat. They were like, okay, so maybe you just sit down and
plushing your arm is a heart attack just that's why I'm having a heart attack and
there's no one's surprise.
It's surprise.
It's fine. Just punch me in the sternum.
Too fast, Alan. Too fast.
Okay. See that right there. That's why nobody eats with you.
That's why we keep sending you to HR, Michael.
Like my mom.
So, so there's,
she says there's something about that one voice,
you know, of the 80 voices that are talking and they're like,
no, no, I get it.
I know which one you're talking about.
Let's discuss that one of the 80 voices in the crowd.
And then she has to say like, but I heard it.
I understand it all.
It's the key to the big act three reveal.
But she says this like 13 fucking times. And then we spend the next 22 minutes on this reveal.
It's so good. Also, there's this crazy moment where she's like, don't you see?
You will be unto him as he will unto something, something.
And he goes, is that Shakespeare?
And I, this is when my notes are all in caps, I'm like, no, that's not Shakespeare.
Old timey talk isn't necessarily Shakespeare.
Which Alan wouldn't tear our community apart with his lies
about the darkness that donic exists from Jesus.
Yeah.
So yeah, she's like, no, I understand now because in Luke 19, it says the stones would cry
out.
And Liz is like, wait, if she's hearing something that's revealing all this to her, why can't
we hear it?
To which Michael says as a scientist, would could it be the lamb recognizing the voice of the shepherd?
I'm sorry what?
Oh my god, so then comes my I gotta say my favorite line in the movie just because of the result of it
So she goes no, don't you see the Jews carried pebbles in their bags to make it seem like they had more money And I was like I've never heard that before so I Google it and the first result is from the German propaganda
That's the first result
She's like have we considered the fact that this rock might be a Jew egg?
That would be no less antisemitic than the line she actually throws out there, but no, apparently this was a Jewish
Pan legs stuff in rock
That would carry a wallet full of debit cards, but most of the other times
So So yeah, now Anna has figured out that this is Judas's rock. And what we're hearing is Judas's story from the stone's perspective,
but only the parts that are in the gospel.
Right, because I mean, this is a multi day affair.
You'd think we would like,
wow, that's definitely taking a shit right there
that we're listening to.
Wow, this is uncomfortable.
What does it sound like the shit's landing on?
And what do you think he ate?
What kind of shit are you working with?
That's a lot.
Judas, no more hummus.
No more hummus.
Judas is scary.
You listen to yourself.
Where do you say no more hummus?
How much blood was in the shed?
But!
So, okay.
And then, so she starts explaining what each sound is, which part of the Bible story
that's supposed to be. And we get these like reenactments while she's saying that. And
they have literally costumed people in tablecloths for these. I am not, I am not kidding.
They literally have two dudes with tablecloths wrapped around their heads so that they would look, you know, period.
No one in this crowd could look less like in Israeli.
Well, it's physically impossible.
No, yeah, because then they have the whole big thing where they pan the big crowd and everything.
There's that they've everyone that they could manage to talk like everyone from their church or whatever was in this scene.
And every single one of them is wearing a goddamn tablecloth except the people who settled for a bath towel. And I would like to call out two
specific members of this crowd. And I see that I'm not the only one who noticed.
First of all, there is deeply unhappy little girl who is my favorite. There's a little girl at
the front who's just like, I don't want to be in the movie. She's not everyone else is like shouting
like, kill Jesus, kill Jesus. She's just sitting there like, stupid movie. Don't want to be in the movie. She's not, everyone else is like shouting, like, kill Jesus, kill Jesus, she's just sitting there like,
stupid movie, don't want to be in the movie.
And then I have her in my notes, this precious,
but there is a large, full-bodied African-American woman
who is cheering way, way, way harder than anyone else
in this movie.
She is going, I believe the term is buckwild.
The black clouds, like you're saying.
It's like, woo!
Cruiser by the motherfuckin' Jesus.
Oh, she like grabs the guy next to him, spikes his head.
She's like, chase that.
Yeah, so and of course,
and so in this whole story,
and then there was all like
fallen together for everybody else
and knowing that one voice that
she was talking about during the
whipping in the crowd.
That was Jesus.
He was trying to talk to the crowd.
I was like, wow, he was really
chatty while they were torts
in him was.
And then I wrote, okay, I've written many times in my notes things like how could there
possibly be 23 minutes left in this movie?
How could there possibly be 31?
I think this is the first time I wrote, how could there possibly be seven minutes left in
this movie?
But then Anne starts freaking out and she goes, we need to stop him guys.
We need to stop him from crucifying Jesus.
You guys remember when you randomly started screaming
for no reason that you would not have crucified Jesus?
You had done someone build time displacement equipment now.
Yes, she's like, stop them.
Stop that.
I wanted Michael to just start randomly karate fighting the air.
I'll save you, Jesus.
Wow.
Yeah, it just covers the rock, you know, or something like that.
Puts it under his arm for a bit.
And also this is where Alan just suddenly goes,
the dripping, the dripping is his bond.
Yeah, they've heard running, crying, whips, water dripping
and he's like, yeah, all makes sense.
It's Jesus, it's definitely, I want to the pan over to Jesus.
He's just fucking with a Foley table.
Like, It's Jesus. It's definitely I want to depend over to Jesus. He's just fucking with a fully table. This is going to be so hard. You're going to make dumb movies about this.
And then and then the rock starts bleeding. And and is just screaming, you know, someone
go back in time and change fiction, please. And then they all start to understand the voices
in the crowd. And they realize that it's, it's
their voices. They're the ones yelling to crucify Jesus.
Oh, and I want all I could think was like, would the deaf girl hurt hear her voice? Would
she just be sitting there and she'd be like, wait, that would not down like.
Koo Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha
Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha
Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Tha Who's the guy? Who's the guy? Yeah, I don't, I don't know how that works.
But we do see that she has, we actually have to watch every single character in this movie
suddenly have that same realization that they're hearing their own voice, including like
the other people that were in the room with jazz rabbi in the first scene that you couldn't
possibly be expected to recognize at this point in the film.
Who were they?
Well, I don't even know what that seemed like.
The other is from the people.
Dr. Strangelo.
Yeah, exactly.
So yeah, but now they can all hear their own voices and they're going like, but I would
never kill it you for my sins, but they did.
Damn it.
They did.
Okay.
One thing though, nobody was yelling in English in the Jerusalem in whatever you
do. It would be Hebrew or Greek, right? So like, people should be hearing themselves
yell in Greek. I didn't. And they wouldn't understand. That's fucking stupid.
And look, this reveal lasts for years. Like when it was over, I had to call someone and
ask who won the last three
super balls. That's how long this fucking thing was. And then the camera starts spinning
just in case it wasn't unpleasant.
No camera.
Oh camera.
Jesus. So obviously handheld too. Like you can practically hear the camera men being
like, yes. Yeah, there were no tracks laid down for this. And then just at that moment, there's a cross
shadow on the wall and they all become Christian.
Fucking what? Be ant. Fucking what? This little projector next to the rock the rock is showing them a
slide.
This with me at the anime square.
Clay it.
The fuck was that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then of course the credits come up and show that it was a play.
This was all based on a play.
And I'm like, okay, as a shitty church play, I guess it all makes sense, right?
It all takes place in the same room.
Yeah, it's across that you can make a shadow with real handy, whatever.
But as a movie, holy fuck, you've got to be kidding me.
I mean, my honestly, my closing line for this was just, holy fuck, was that weird.
All right.
Now, I am tempted to say that from the rock rocks point of view, is the dumbest way that anybody
has ever or will ever tell the story of the crucifixion.
But you know what?
We've been doing this for 129 episodes, so I know better.
In fact, not only has somebody figured out a dumber POV for a Jesus story, but eventually
we're going to have to watch it.
So my question for you to close off tonight is when we do find that
movie, whose perspective will we be telling the story from? Just give you an example.
I was thinking like the sword mouth, right? So he's in a pop lip story and mostly the
movie is just black or maybe like you see intestinal lining and infigriner, whatever.
But then you just pop out during the action scenes.
I like it. I like it.
Um, well, I've actually found this movie.
It was from the perspective of his stigmata getting finger fucked.
And it gets pretty stable actually.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know.
We've actually watched the donkey during the birth and now the rock during the crucifixion.
I feel like we need something in the middle.
So I'm going to go with the untouched
fish at the party where he loves to blaze the fit like the fish. There's just like,
Oh, now there's two of me. What if it's say about the nature of my soul?
By the way, when I actually, when I mentioned this question to Lucinda, her first thought was
the jackass in the manger.
And I'm like, no, we actually just watched that movie.
It was a cartoon and it had, had Oprah in it actually.
All right.
Well, while that's gonna do it for our review of the sobbing stone, that's not gonna
do it for the episode just yet because we still need to lock this back in for next week.
So Eli, tell us what's on deck?
The night of day.
What? Yeah, it's the name doesn't make any fucking sense.
So movie about satanic cults, it looks,
it's like a time traveling satanic cult thing.
A lot of people have recommended it.
It looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun.
All right, well, a lot of people recommended this one too.
So let's not get our hopes up.
But with that to look forward to,
we're gonna bring up a one twenty nine to a merciful close. Once again, a lot of people recommended this one too. So let's not get our hopes up. But with that to look forward to, we're gonna bring up episode 129 to a merciful close.

The Jews did it. The Jews did it.
The Rock turned out to be mostly polonium and all those hallucinations were an early warning
sign of radiation sickness. This movie was terrible and Eli hated watching it.
Oh yeah.
It was a cute warlockist shoot. What is this say?
All right, ladies and gentlemen, what he wrote was don't you see here guys the professor
her his own voice.
Her his own.
Oh, you could have gotten heard.
I know.
Just look at her is a word and heard has an A in it and it's not a lot of words have
some share letters.
And we don't know which one of them is wrong.
You got to keep that in mind as well.
We don't know which of those is the wrong word.
Refs are her history, like you could have met a lot of things.
Pretty close to having the national anthem down on my saxophone.
So I'll be able to play before the Super Bowl tomorrow.
You better stand for it.
Raise this asshole.
That was as a unity.
That's why we stand for the pledge.
Hey, I've got another person who did their job here.
Let's give it up.
From high school was hard.
That did their job.
