Companion, starring Sophie Thatcher, Jack Quaid, Rupert Friend, Lukas Gage, Megan Suri, Harvey Guillén. Directed by Drew Hancock.
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,080
And now a reading from the book
of Robin.
2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:09,640
I've got some news for you.
Fembots have feelings too.
3
00:00:10,120 --> 00:00:15,320
You split my heart in two.
Now what you going to do?
4
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:30,000
That's the movie.
I'm Derek.
5
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,840
That's Noah, and welcome to
another exciting episode of A
6
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,240
Bite of where we're talking
about the Companion.
7
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,240
Oh, companion, I think the
second surprise of the year so
8
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,320
far the the year is just
starting, but I feel like
9
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:47,480
January was a great for movies.
Yeah, yeah, the gorge.
10
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,160
Now the companion.
Yeah, unique, unique.
11
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:55,400
We're in a very interesting time
at a bite of where we're finding
12
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,200
these like interesting little
films that what are they saying?
13
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,160
Who are they?
They're everything.
14
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:02,600
Or are they nothing?
I don't know.
15
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,200
That's what we're here to
discuss.
16
00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:09,320
On that, no, we're talking about
the companion today before we
17
00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:12,200
get into everything we are I I
guess depending on when you're
18
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,280
watching this, we're either over
1000 subscribers on YouTube now
19
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,440
or just about.

00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:26,400
Yeah.
That would be a really exciting
23
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,120
milestone.
And we're just so close.
24
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,920
Like even if you just listen to

00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:41,120
Yeah.
Yeah.
30
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,640
So spoilers ahead for The
Companion.
31
00:01:42,960 --> 00:01:46,200
If you have not seen a trailer,
if you have not seen the movie,
32
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:49,960
go to your local theater and or
I think you can rent it now on
33
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,040
digital.
Just go do that and then come
34
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,160
back and we'll discuss.
So let us officially take a bite
35
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,760
of The Companion.
Written and directed by Drew
36
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,800
Hancock.
Iris and her one true love, Josh
37
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,880
head to a remote Mountain Home
to join friends for a weekend
38
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,280
getaway.
Things go haywire when
39
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,600
aggression is turned up and a
corrupt plan is revealed.
40
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:16,680
Beep, beep, beep.
God, I just want to start off
41
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,120
before we get into initial
thoughts of saying that Drew
42
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,240
Hancock has directing and
writing credits such as a Fred 3
43
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,560
so and then did the companion.
So what a wild track record.
44
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,720
Took a really long time off
apparently.
45
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,040
I mean Fred 3 was a hit as we
all. 2012.
46
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,480
Wow.
To now, I mean, they they did
47
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,160
things in between, but I just
liked it.
48
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,040
I like that growth.
I like the going from a YouTube
49
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,040
movie personality to then
creating the companion.
50
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,640
We all start somewhere.
So good job, Drew.
51
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,040
We're proud of you.
And it's interesting too,
52
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,720
because I do know that it says
like from the creators of
53
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,320
Barbarian.
I think that just means studio.
54
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,760
I don't think it actually means
like the creators of Barbarian.
55
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,080
Yeah, they they take some
liberties with things like that.
56
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,280
I always like when it's like
based on a true story and you're
57
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,000
like, OMGI can't believe this
happened.
58
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,800
And it's just like the names,
right?
59
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,080
Were borrowed, right?
So what did you think of the
60
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,520
companion?
So I thought it was a really
61
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,880
entertaining movie.
It felt very much like a one of
62
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,520
those interesting thrillers that
it feels like it takes place now
63
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,720
but with a little bit of a
futuristic twist.
64
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,480
Do I think that it was
predictable?
65
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,000
I do, but overall I liked it.
Do you think that it was
66
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,280
predictable because you knew
that she was a a robot this
67
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,000
whole time?
Because the interesting thing
68
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,200
about this movie and I'll we can
get into it a little more, but I
69
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,840
think that they told too much in
the trailer because the movie
70
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,840
makes you it, it almost plays
like you're not supposed to
71
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,320
know.
And then when the reveal is that
72
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,040
she's a robot, it's like, oh, we
we know.
73
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,760
Yeah, right.
You know, like it.
74
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,920
Is that why you think it was
predictable or just the beats of
75
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,520
a story?
I think the beats of the story,
76
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,640
honestly, I and I was happy with
the beats of the story.
77
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,320
I think it went down the route
that I wanted it to go.
78
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,960
Ultimately, it felt like 2
thumbs up.
79
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,480
I'm glad that, you know, spoiler
work.
80
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,519
Iris came out on top, but I
thought that the beats along the
81
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:21,680
way, we knew what was going to
happen.
82
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:22,600
Right.
Yeah, I.
83
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,040
Yeah, what did you think I.
Quite enjoyed it.
84
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:31,520
I think it's a, it's unique
enough to where I like, I knew
85
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,640
the, the twist obviously that
she's a robot.
86
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,360
There is another twist of like
there is another robot within
87
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,520
the group, which I thought was
really interesting and I didn't
88
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,120
expect that.
I I enjoyed it because it, it
89
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,320
touches on a lot of things that
you expect a movie like this to
90
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,000
touch on.
But I think the added layer of
91
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,360
like, OK, they have programming,
but it's like we all kind of
92
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,640
have programming.
So like, what does that mean for
93
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,360
a robot that realizes that they
are created?
94
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,000
Can they then, I don't know, be
sentient and be their own
95
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,000
machine or can they not?
And so I think it's a really
96
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,800
interesting concept to talk
about.
97
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,480
Do I think that they went too
hard in them?
98
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,320
No, but I don't think the movie
was trying to do that.
99
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,160
I think it just gave you a taste
of like, here's the things I
100
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,080
want to talk about, but like,
not beat you over the head with
101
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,320
them.
What do you think some of those
102
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:20,880
things that they were trying to
talk about were?
103
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,640
Well, Jack Wade's character is a
complete asshole, and he uses
104
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,440
everybody and everything for his
own selfish gain.
105
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:33,280
Typical white straight guy.
Yeah, but it wasn't like men
106
00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:35,440
would feel uncomfortable
watching this movie.
107
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,200
And I don't think that's a bad
thing.
108
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,280
But I think if you're not really
paying attention, you won't
109
00:05:40,280 --> 00:05:42,720
notice the little things of
like, did you notice his
110
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,400
apartment?
It was not like, it was look
111
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,240
like he just moved into it.
And that's like, you know, like
112
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,240
that's the type of person that
when he said, oh, I didn't even
113
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:52,720
buy you.
You're a rental.
114
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,720
It's like, dude, you don't even
like, oh, God.
115
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,280
Just like those little things of
like, oh, you're just a complete
116
00:05:58,280 --> 00:05:59,080
tool.
Yeah.
117
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,560
He says something along the
lines of like, you know, people
118
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,640
like you are creations, like you
make the world hard for people
119
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,640
like me.
It's like, how hard can it be
120
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,400
for you?
And it almost made me think of a
121
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,040
few years ago when Harry Styles
won album of the year at the
122
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,680
Grammys.
And he was like, this doesn't
123
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,880
happen a lot to people like me.
And people were like, what?
124
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,560
Like what?
People that were formerly in One
125
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,200
Direction.
Yeah, I guess.
126
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,800
But it just has that feeling of
like this guy that's like, poor
127
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:28,320
me.
Poor me.
128
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,560
But yet at the same time, as far
as we know of Josh, he's not
129
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,040
trying to change anything for
himself, right?
130
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,640
And so even when Iris is first
delivered, here she is.
131
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,520
And there's just trash all over
the place, right?
132
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,160
The coffee table's a mess.
And it's like you're welcoming
133
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,440
this machine into your home, but
yet you're treating it like just
134
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:48,720
that.
It's so silly.
135
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,600
Like I, I, that was my first
thought of like he was waking
136
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,440
her up for the first time and it
just was disgusting in there.
137
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,600
I'm like, wow, like I guess
she's not a person, right?
138
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,880
But I would just be like, I
don't know, I'm welcoming this
139
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:05,080
companion to this home and it's
like, it's still trash and like
140
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,280
leftover fruit eggs.
So what did you think of like
141
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:10,480
the companion model itself?
Like I, I know we've had these
142
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,200
types of stories before, these
concepts and, and media in
143
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,720
general, but what did you think
of like this advanced version of
144
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,840
it where it's like pretty much
perfected and it's like a
145
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,560
company that runs it.
I mean, I it feels like
146
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,520
something that might not be very
far off.
147
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,120
You know, we continually welcome
more and more machines into our
148
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,760
lives.
You know, first it was the
149
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,840
vacuum cleaner that cleans up
after us, and now you and I are
150
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:39,000
constantly yelling at our echo
for timers everyday, you know
151
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,720
what I mean?
So I think that this version of
152
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,760
it feels like a next step,
right?
153
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:49,680
This is almost like a thriller
version of Lars and the real
154
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,600
girl, right?
Like that was the first
155
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:57,240
companion, but she was just, you
know, a mannequin of sorts, a
156
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,520
doll, whereas this one is
actually immediately falling in
157
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,560
love with you.
So I liked this concept.
158
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,240
I liked the idea of you
controlling it with your phone
159
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:09,600
and perfecting its personality.
It just all feels very like
160
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,240
those are the next steps.
I don't think they're like good
161
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,800
steps though, you know what I
mean?
162
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,760
Because then it's like, he
didn't work for anything.
163
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,760
He didn't like.
You didn't build that
164
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,560
connection.
It's just like, Gimme, Gimme,
165
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,120
Gimme.
I want the end result.
166
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,720
So it's like, I hope we don't
get there because what does that
167
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,560
even look like?
Yeah, you know that.
168
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,960
It's terrifying.
You have to even wonder, you
169
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,679
know, apart from her being a
robot, right?
170
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,960
The way he treats her brain
general is really awful.
171
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,120
And, you know, there's almost a
commentary here on how people
172
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,919
are treated by their partners
and what they're willing to put
173
00:08:43,919 --> 00:08:47,200
up with just for the idea of
looking perfect or, you know,
174
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,240
this is the one, but yet you're
being treated awfully.
175
00:08:50,560 --> 00:08:54,480
So I think there's another
narrative in there, that of this
176
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,760
respect between two participants
in a relationship.
177
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,680
Well, we've, we've all been in
relationships where it's like, I
178
00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:05,480
know that if I wasn't with this
person, it'd be better.
179
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,040
But like, I love them, you know
what I mean?
180
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,920
Or like you're telling yourself
you love them, you've been
181
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,520
programmed to love them.
And so it's like, you can't,
182
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,280
because there's that whole
conversation that Iris and Josh
183
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,200
have when she escapes in the car
and he's like, do you even love
184
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,080
me?
Like he's playing into that.
185
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,960
He's like, how can I manipulate
this programming where she's
186
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,800
programmed to love me?
And how can I use that?
187
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,720
It's like gaslighting.
Exactly.
188
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,880
Yeah, programmed gaslighting.
OK, Can I say something about
189
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,120
our other human companion pair
in this?
190
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,080
So the other human companion
pair, it's Eli, played by Harvey
191
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,920
Guillen and Patrick, paid by
Lucas Gage.
192
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:49,120
And we learned that Patrick is
the the companion in this.
193
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:50,600
He's good.
He's the robot.
194
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,440
And so I was reflecting on this
a little bit.
195
00:09:53,520 --> 00:10:00,240
And so I almost wonder if it
would have been a more
196
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:06,160
interesting choice if Lucas Gage
was the human and Harvey played
197
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,160
the companion because it felt
like it was.
198
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:16,080
Or maybe it's a comment on in
the world of gay men, if you're
199
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,960
not a model, right, you can't
find a companion.
200
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,800
So for Eli, he had to buy
Patrick.
201
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,360
Yeah, I mean, I think that is
what it was trying to say on the
202
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,560
surface level, it's like, yeah,
I think that is very vapid and
203
00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:33,760
it's very vain and it's
narcissistic, but it's also like
204
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,760
a commentary on some of those
communities, right?
205
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,120
Yeah, I I think it I think it
was saying that for sure.
206
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,640
I did like, though, that they
they had a mutual understanding.
207
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,040
Like, even when he found out
that he was a companion robot,
208
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,080
he was just like, I mean, I
still love you.
209
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:53,160
He has no choice really.
But also Harvey's character was
210
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,800
like, no, I, I love you.
Like, I, I mean, I would pick
211
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,720
you.
I would never do that again.
212
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,360
Do we think that maybe if the
tables were turned, who knows?
213
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,760
Maybe he would have.
But we have to take it with what
214
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,760
he said.
And I did like that the gay
215
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,240
couple was like, in it to win
it, you know what I mean?
216
00:11:09,560 --> 00:11:13,160
We're going to outlast this.
And even when Patrick gets all
217
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,040
screwed up by Josh later on,
there are still flashes of his
218
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,080
love for Eli in there.
So their love was true love.
219
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,000
It goes past the programming.
I will say though, like in going
220
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,080
back a little bit to Iris and
Josh's relationship, Beep Boop
221
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,560
as a pet name is like
diabolical.
222
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,040
That is so fucked up because she
didn't know she was a companion
223
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,600
and how like weird, right?
Because like there's no I guess
224
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,000
there's no reason to not tell
them, but I guess it's
225
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,840
encouraged not to tell them that
they're companions.
226
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,360
And it's like everybody else
around you knows that like this
227
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,440
person appeared in your life and
knows that they're a companion,
228
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,840
like cat the the only other
person that's in here.
229
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,120
So it's just like a weird social
structure that's going on here
230
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,800
that I think is fascinating.
Like I could get another movie
231
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,720
with this.
I could get another like seeing
232
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,400
Iris, I don't know, waking up
some of the other ones.
233
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,280
But then it gets a little too I
row body.
234
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,440
I don't know.
I do think that there's
235
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:17,640
something in here being said
about Josh and, and just humans
236
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,520
in general, lying to make
themselves feel more comfortable
237
00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:25,720
and lying to say, look what I
achieved, even though it's
238
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,800
something that you rented and
you bought and it's not a real
239
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,000
relationship, right?
So it feels better for me as a
240
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,160
human to be like you're my wife,
even though I know you're a
241
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,840
robot and you don't.
That's so weird.
242
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,760
It's deceptive.
I will say that I agree with
243
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,000
Iris that we should be thanking
the machines in our lives.
244
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,000
So Josh's car is a self driving
car.
245
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,480
And when they get there, she
goes thank you Josh's car.
246
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,960
And then she like looks at him
like say thank you.
247
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,640
And then he says thank you.
And I say thank you to Siri all
248
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,640
the time.
You do, Which, you know, some
249
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,000
people had pointed out online, I
would have never gotten this
250
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,320
because, like, I just didn't
think of it at this level.
251
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,440
Iris is an anagram for Siri.
Like it's the same.
252
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,880
Yeah.
They got me.
253
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,640
I didn't want to take credit for
that because I did not think of
254
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,720
that, but it's like, yeah, just
flip it around and yeah, it's,
255
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,280
it's Siri.
It's so it's so silly robots.
256
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,280
But yeah, I mean, I do think
that you do need to thank your
257
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,960
your machines, but also like use
them sparingly.
258
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,960
They're they're meant to be
tools.
259
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:27,640
Because it's always funny,
right?
260
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,000
I feel like with lots of things,
you're like, they're learning
261
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,000
your habits, they're figuring
out what you like.
262
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,840
So it's like, oh, OK, yeah,
they're listening.
263
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,600
They're learning.
Is there something to be said
264
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,080
though, like if I don't know,
like maybe this could be in our
265
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,520
favor.
Maybe they can help us, you
266
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,840
know, overthrow some tech
billionaires that are.
267
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:48,560
That would be incredible.
Let's make that happen.
268
00:13:48,560 --> 00:13:49,240
Let's.
Make that happen.
269
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,480
Come on, Iris.
Yes, they need to be like lie
270
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,400
detectors.
If if they feel that you're
271
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,240
lying too much, they have to
take action.
272
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,240
We'd be done in in an hour.
It would be great.
273
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,360
What did you think about the
because this is very much a dark
274
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,680
comedy.
So did you like the balancing of
275
00:14:04,680 --> 00:14:06,680
those kind of different genres?
Because I think that's what
276
00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:10,520
makes it interesting almost is
because it is a comedy and it
277
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,440
also is a thriller and it's like
uncomfortable to watch, but also
278
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,280
you're laughing at some of it.
So like, did that work for you?
279
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,400
It did.
I think that's what made it feel
280
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,960
newer to me in this genre of,
you know, robot revolt was that
281
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,880
there was levity in there.
You know, Josh just is a total
282
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:29,640
fuck up.
You know, he's just an idiot and
283
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,240
you're watching him bumble along
and think he's awesome.
284
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:37,120
I also love the repeat of the
meet cute between Eli and
285
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,160
Patrick that we then see between
Patrick and Josh, Right?
286
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,960
So it's the dance steps, it's
the silliness with the costumes.
287
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,160
Like I thought that was really
fun.
288
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,520
Yeah, I mean it's pre programmed
meet cutes, which is like other
289
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,920
ones that they have.
I didn't like either of those.
290
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,200
So that wouldn't have been me
because I would just, I even got
291
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,040
second hand embarrassment when
he dropped all those oranges.
292
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,800
That is my biggest fear in a
grocery store is like just
293
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,120
breaking something.
Well, here's my problem with
294
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,160
that meet cute.
He picked the top orange and all
295
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,280
of them fell down.
Irish should have known
296
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,840
something was up.
She should have known She.
297
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,600
Was too busy being infatuated.
Oh my God, I was trying to.
298
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,920
I was trying to see what she was
shopping for.
299
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,880
It was 2 containers of orange
juice and chickpea pasta.
300
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,720
Oh.
That's, that's nice, Yeah.
301
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,760
Healthy, yeah.
And then she met him at the
302
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,600
oranges, so I guess she's the
chickpea pasta.
303
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,400
I don't know what that means.
I don't.
304
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:28,800
I would not go that far into
that.
305
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,000
I think that's just what they
had.
306
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,480
It's why the curtains are blue,
right?
307
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:35,240
It's in all those books.
But yeah, I liked, I liked the
308
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,400
balance.
So what we discover is that
309
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:43,480
basically Josh hacks into IRS's
programming to make her go on a
310
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,640
murdering rampage, try and kill
this rich Russian guy.
311
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,360
Did that work for you?
Yeah, I liked it.
312
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,560
When you saw him put the the
modification into the the cell
313
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:54,840
phone, it's like, oh, OK, he's
changing it.
314
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,000
I didn't realize it was for that
purpose.
315
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,960
And then the extra added twist
of like Sergei wasn't in the
316
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,480
mafia or mob or whatever, the
Russian mob, because I think
317
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,240
that's what you initially think.
We all thought that like, we
318
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,480
were like, OK, yeah, that makes
sense.
319
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,360
And it turns out he was just
like a normal dude and he was
320
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:13,520
just gross.
Yeah, he was.
321
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:18,600
Just a bad person.
So like I liked those added kind
322
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,880
of playing with what you would
expect a little bit.
323
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:25,360
Do I think that like some of the
like effects and actions like
324
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,520
completely worked.
He they were a little shoddy in
325
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,680
some parts, which took me out a
little bit because I was like,
326
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,680
oh, they could have like like
when the Corkscrew thing went
327
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:39,240
into his head, which was gross,
but it like it just looked kind
328
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,400
of bad CGI wise.
But everything else looked
329
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:43,080
great.
Yeah.
330
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,160
So there was some a little
fumbles there personally, and
331
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:51,760
like some continuity things like
when Sergey fell, he felt this
332
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,760
way, but then when it did the
other shot, he felt this way
333
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,120
again.
That's like nitpicky, but like,
334
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,560
those were the things that took
me out just a little bit and I
335
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,880
was like, oh man, it was this
close.
336
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,839
That's interesting because it's,
I feel like this show is kind of
337
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,839
how you and I watch things
sometimes.
338
00:17:06,839 --> 00:17:09,160
You're looking for those very
technical aspects of it.
339
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,000
And for me, some of the things
that didn't work were some of
340
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,960
the storyline things and the
whole Sergei storyline.
341
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,040
Well, I get that he upped her
aggression because they're not
342
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,040
supposed to hurt humans, and he
overrode that.
343
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,240
How in any way did they know
that with just the two of them
344
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,360
down by the lake, Sergei was
going to basically try to rape
345
00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:33,520
her, You know what I mean?
And like and then she had to
346
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,600
kill him, which then would
finally get rid of him.
347
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,400
I mean, I think because that's
the guy he is Cat has been
348
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:42,280
dating him, so she knew.
I think like I don't think it's
349
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:43,880
that far off.
It's just surface level like
350
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,240
this dude is a bad guy.
Put them together.
351
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,920
He's going to try something.
And if you upped her aggression
352
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,640
because he didn't really, I'm
not going to say he didn't do
353
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:58,000
anything too big, but she
reacted right highly because
354
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,680
that's what he rose up.
But I can get why it's like, OK,
355
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,440
well, that was like a one in a
million chance.
356
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,360
Exactly, But I guess he they had
all weekend.
357
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,440
That's true.
It didn't necessarily have to
358
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,520
happen at the lake, but he was
making sure that she was going
359
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,720
to be alone with him.
So I was like, of course, the
360
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,640
one time she's alone with him,
something happens.
361
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,840
Like, it's interesting.
I felt like there were maybe too
362
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,880
many bread crumbs with the
Corkscrew that we're going to
363
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,560
come back and not enough bread
crumbs with Sergei trying to.
364
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:22,880
Oh.
I cocked in the seat and looked
365
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,480
at her though, like.
Give me one scene when they're
366
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,800
dancing together where he
touches her inappropriately and
367
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,000
we're like you.
Who's staring?
368
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,880
I feel like you don't feel like
it really worked.
369
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,320
I could see them maybe doing it
a little more.
370
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,600
Yeah, to lead that way.
But you know.
371
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,320
I guess it's not that I didn't
think it worked, it's just that
372
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:41,920
it's that one in a million
chance.
373
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,440
Yeah.
You know, if he was a robot as
374
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,640
well and they programmed him to
do that, I'd be like, oh, OK,
375
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,720
got it.
That makes sense.
376
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,600
Well, I just think he's a
predictable, gross guy.
377
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,440
Yeah.
So kind of going to like Josh
378
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,240
and Iris and this whole like
kind of fight they have that
379
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,720
keeps going.
I thought the action and the
380
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,720
pacing for this movie was
excellent.
381
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,320
There wasn't really a slow beat.
It just kept going and going.
382
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:10,880
When they came to get Iris and
he had made her shoot herself in
383
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,480
the head thinking that that's
where everything was.
384
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,440
But I just love the added detail
of like, no, they put it
385
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,040
traditionally where the womb is
because they know that a man
386
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,920
would never mess with that area.
You know what I mean?
387
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,320
Like because they even said in
this movie, we know what they
388
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,960
use these for.
They wouldn't have never done
389
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,840
that.
So I'd like that extra layer of
390
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:36,520
like, they understand how gross
these men are and would preserve
391
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,000
that.
Like, I think that little
392
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:40,800
details like, oh, they're
cooking.
393
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,880
They're cooking here.
And we even hear these details
394
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:48,440
of, you know, once these people
have them, they're just robots.
395
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,920
So the guys that keep them in
their basements and torture
396
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,480
them, like whatever you're going
to do, whatever you want to do.
397
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,760
So it's hard to think about
that.
398
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,640
If you do think that these
things would come along, things
399
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,400
like horrible things like that
would happen.
400
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,160
What isn't there?
Like some Tesla robots out now
401
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,360
or something like that, like the
Kardashians have them.
402
00:20:06,360 --> 00:20:10,120
Like it just weirds me out.
I don't think that like right
403
00:20:10,120 --> 00:20:13,560
now or anytime soon.
I would be cool with that
404
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,720
because I think you have these
companies that are ran by these
405
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,840
tech billionaires that like won
it for a particular purpose, you
406
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:23,440
know what I mean?
So it's like, I don't think I
407
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,480
could ever trust something like
that.
408
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,120
So it's it's this movie is
interesting and that like takes
409
00:20:30,120 --> 00:20:32,840
place in the future, but not
that far in the future.
410
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,280
And it seems like most people
are OK with it.
411
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,200
So I don't think that's how it's
going to be in real life, to be
412
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,480
honest.
The Revolution, no.
413
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,840
I've seen too many sci-fi movies
and stuff.
414
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,640
I don't want it.
Totally, totally.
415
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,040
What did you think?
Speaking of our lead robot, what
416
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,000
did you think of Sophie
Thatcher's performance as?
417
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,840
Fantastic.
I I'm she is becoming more and
418
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,760
more like anything she's going
to be in.
419
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:02,080
I want to see she's like getting
up there as like a horror like
420
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,360
oh she's she's going to be like
a top name.
421
00:21:05,360 --> 00:21:08,720
Yeah, in this, it's almost like
the same trajectory that kind of
422
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,720
like Anya Taylor Joy did a
little bit, I'm here for.
423
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,360
Her, I was just going to say
that I'm like, I could see her
424
00:21:14,360 --> 00:21:16,680
being another Anya Taylor Joy
for you.
425
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,400
I think that her performance was
really.
426
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,160
For you.
For you, no, because you love
427
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,480
Anya Taylor Joy.
And I think that there's
428
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,720
something about Sophie Thatcher.
She gives a 24 vibes basically
429
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,880
is what I'm saying.
She gives me Emily Browning
430
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,080
vibes.
Totally.
431
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,680
Yeah.
How's that movie?
432
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,560
Sucker punch she could.
Have been in Sucker Punch for
433
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,920
sure.
Yeah, even with the the little
434
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:38,480
headband that she has.
For sure.
435
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,360
Oh wow, yeah, that movie was
wild.
436
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,120
But I thought her performance
was fantastic.
437
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,400
I love the layer of an actor
having to approach the a role
438
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,480
where for a good portion of the
movie they don't know their
439
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,840
truth and then they have to
learn their truth.
440
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,160
And then the interesting thing
about this is that they her
441
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,360
intelligence is set at 40% and
she UPS it to 100%.
442
00:22:00,360 --> 00:22:03,680
So even the way that she has to
be thinking about things and
443
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,400
going into situations, it has to
change.
444
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:10,960
Yeah, so I All in all, I think
this movie do not if again, if
445
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,960
you haven't, I'm getting kind of
irritated at these like movie
446
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,840
studios that give too much in
the trailers.
447
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,000
And I don't mean like, you know,
showing fights and stuff like
448
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,520
that, but I mean just general
like beats.
449
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:25,800
Because if the movie, if you're
watching it and in the movie,
450
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,000
you're not supposed to know
something but the trailer told
451
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,560
it to you.
It almost it it's disingenuous
452
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,760
in that way of like, well, I
know what's happening.
453
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,000
Like why are we are we supposed
to be surprised that she's a
454
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,320
robot?
So I'm kind of jealous of people
455
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,520
that didn't see anything and
went into a blind.
456
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,200
I just wish they would like
chill out with that just a
457
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,800
little bit.
Overall, it would have ranked a
458
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:52,320
little higher for me if that big
twist of her of being a robot
459
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,440
was revealed in the movie
naturally instead of knowing
460
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,440
about it.
So I think like if I had to rate
461
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,200
it, it'd be like right now, it'd
be like a four and it could have
462
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,800
been a four and a half, you
know?
463
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:04,320
I understand.
Yeah.
464
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,000
I think that that's definitely a
good point.
465
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:12,240
But with with movies like this,
you know, what can you show, I
466
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,160
guess, to get people to come and
see it?
467
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:15,600
Oh, I.
I could play this trailer and
468
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,120
stop it right where I think they
should have stopped.
469
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,160
It there's a moment.
Well, there's a moment in the
470
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,640
trailer because the trailer kind
of does a lot of flashes, like
471
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,160
typical thriller, It's the style
and stuff like that.
472
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:29,360
And it's like right before you
see her eyes change and like her
473
00:23:29,360 --> 00:23:31,160
being a robot.
That's where they could have
474
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:32,120
ended it.
That's it.
475
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,720
Bring her back that new a 24
movie from the people that did
476
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,000
talk to me.
That's a good trailer because
477
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,480
like you can kind of figure out
what's happening, but you don't
478
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,640
just give me vibes and who's in
it.
479
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,560
That's all.
That's all I need to know.
480
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,080
Don't give me stop it.
You know what they need to bring
481
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,840
back?
They need to bring back in a
482
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,000
world.
No, he's.
483
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,160
Going to give too much, he's
going to say.
484
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,080
And she's a robot.
In a world where companions are
485
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,640
robots, that's true.
Yeah.
486
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,200
I think that, like I said, I'm
happy that of about the beats
487
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,760
that this movie took.
I think it was rewarding for us
488
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,480
watching it and rooting for Iris
the entire time.
489
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,560
Where some of them.
Did it feel predictable?
490
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,680
I don't know if it was because
of the trailer or if just that
491
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,880
was kind of the natural flow of
the way things were going.
492
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:24,560
I mean, I did think that I was
surprised by the extra part at
493
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,320
the end that I wasn't expecting,
so that was pretty cool.
494
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,360
But All in all, yeah, I'd give
this like 3 1/2 stars.
495
00:24:30,360 --> 00:24:32,760
I liked it.
Yeah, I don't know if I'd want
496
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,600
another one.
I think this is one of the
497
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,240
movies where like, leave it,
like leave it where it is
498
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,080
because I like the moment.
Oh, I love a moment and like a
499
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,840
thriller or horror movie where
it's like the final girl and she
500
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,920
gets her moment at the end.
Oh, just her with her her robot
501
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,360
hand and she goes hi other
companion.
502
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,960
I just so good.
That's my question, what does
503
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,200
she do about that robot?
Hand gloves only all the time.
504
00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,080
No, I think she's embraced it.
Are they allowed to just be out
505
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,920
in the world?
I don't think so.
506
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,240
I think that like they
themselves are owned by that
507
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,440
company, but I think she's just
going to be on the run.
508
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,160
Like they're probably after her
if we think about it.
509
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,600
Like story wise, those workers
that came up to get her don't
510
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,680
have anything to bring.
Back and one of them is dead.
511
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,960
So there's questions.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
512
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,600
But that's also why I don't want
another one.
513
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,800
Like, I, I know stuff happens
afterwards.
514
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,160
I just leave them where they
are.
515
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,080
But I love a scene like that.
Give me the Gone Girl scenes
516
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,760
like that, Yeah.
Love, it's like, sorry you're
517
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,280
stuck with that guy.
Look at me and my convertible.
518
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:35,920
Baby, they all got what they
deserved.
519
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,520
I agree.
I mean, there's even something
520
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,960
else about greed in this and
what people are willing to do
521
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,840
just for money.
And so I mean basically at the
522
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,120
end of it, everyone dies.
Yeah.
523
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,760
So let us know what you thought,
Gambleau.
524
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,440
Yeah, until next time.
Would you rent A companion?
525
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,600
Oh, rent A companion.
I wonder how much?
526
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,760
Never mind.
It's like a Peloton, basically.
527
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:59,960
You know, some people rent them,
some people can buy them.
528
00:25:59,960 --> 00:26:03,320
I don't like this.
This is this is like it doesn't
529
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,120
feel ethical and like there's
the whole thing of like is
530
00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:09,320
something that isn't sentient or
isn't natural.
531
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,880
Does it deserve to have autonomy
of itself?
532
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:13,920
I don't know.
I don't like these
533
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,800
conversations.
We've, I mean, look what
534
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,120
happened in Megan.
I don't.
535
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,680
And she's coming back.
Hello, is it the third one?
536
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,200
Second one?
I don't know.
537
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,560
Dragon.
I think it's the second one.
538
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,040
It's like OK because it's Megan
2 point O.
539
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:27,960
Oh, there you go.
There you go.
540
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,280
There you go.
OK, until next time, bye bye.
541
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:32,840
Be nice to computers.
