Speaker: 00:00:26

it's been a morning: Hello,

and welcome to Last Time On.

2

: 00:00:28

This is the podcast for people who wanna

watch all this prestige television,

3

: 00:00:30

but, uh, who's got time for it?

4

: 00:00:34

Benjamin: You know I don't, so

I'll call you and ask you what do

5

: 00:00:37

I do about not having time for this

6

: 00:00:40

it's been a morning: You did

once, and we started this podcast.

7

: 00:00:50

TheMotionVictor: Victor

8

: 00:00:52

it's been a morning: If one of

us was lost in the woods, Victor

9

: 00:00:57

I just, it'd be, it'd be you if, if one

of us was gonna get lost in the woods

10

: 00:01:00

TheMotionVictor: Listen, that was

very rude of you to point it out.

11

: 00:01:03

All right?

12

: 00:01:06

it's been a morning: Like

I, I, I mean, I don't know.

13

: 00:01:08

Like, I'm, I'm sure you got

some training in Army stuff

14

: 00:01:12

TheMotionVictor: Training that I've,

training that I failed along with 80%

15

: 00:01:15

of the other privates that are in there.

16

: 00:01:18

I tell you, everyone failed land nav.

17

: 00:01:21

That's why

18

: 00:01:21

it's been a morning: Okay

19

: 00:01:22

TheMotionVictor: hilarious in this

episode that Paulie is like, "Hey,

20

: 00:01:25

I did four years in the army."

21

: 00:01:26

I'm like, "Yeah, dude, that's

barely enough to maybe, uh,

22

: 00:01:29

still not be a private."

23

: 00:01:30

Like this guy was a sham shield.

24

: 00:01:32

Well, I'll get into it

when we get to the point.

25

: 00:01:34

it's been a morning: Okay

26

: 00:01:34

TheMotionVictor: But, uh, but, but

yeah, , motherfuckers got lost all

27

: 00:01:37

the time out there, uh, including

this motherfucker right here.

28

: 00:01:40

So

29

: 00:01:42

, it's been a morning: With, with my

upbringing, with my ultra-conservative

30

: 00:01:44

prepper father, , I, I, I

excel at navigation on land.

31

: 00:01:49

I'm quite good.

32

: 00:01:50

TheMotionVictor: you, you would be

the guy that the rest of us would

33

: 00:01:53

bribe to text message us where to

34

: 00:01:56

it's been a morning: Oh yeah

35

: 00:01:58

TheMotionVictor: Anyway,

hey, uh, hey, audience.

36

: 00:02:00

Today we are doing The Sopranos

Season 3, Episode 11, Barrens

37

: 00:02:06

it's been a morning: Did y'all

catch who directed this episode?

38

: 00:02:08

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

39

: 00:02:09

That, that was, that stuck out

like a, like a sore Steve Buscemi.

40

: 00:02:14

Like, was like, "What?"

41

: 00:02:19

How do you do, fellow kids?

42

: 00:02:20

What?

43

: 00:02:22

TheMotionVictor: That's funny,

'cause just, , yesterday I was

44

: 00:02:24

watching, , the '90s classic

sci-fi movie Escape From L.A.,

45

: 00:02:29

where

46

: 00:02:30

it's been a morning: Yeah

47

: 00:02:30

TheMotionVictor: sore Steve

Buscemi was the crooked taxi driver

48

: 00:02:34

Benjamin: the Ernest Borgnine

49

: 00:02:36

TheMotionVictor: Yes.

50

: 00:02:37

Oh, man

51

: 00:02:38

Benjamin: 'Cause that

52

: 00:02:38

it's been a morning:

Ernest might be a stretch.

53

: 00:02:40

He's kind of a shady character

54

: 00:02:41

Benjamin: Well, but he, that is

the character Ernest Borgnine

55

: 00:02:44

plays in Escape From New York

56

: 00:02:45

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

57

: 00:02:48

it's been a morning: I was making

a pun, earnest and earnest.

58

: 00:02:50

It's fine, Ben.

59

: 00:02:51

Benjamin: yeah,

60

: 00:02:51

it's been a morning: Yeah.

61

: 00:02:51

Okay.

62

: 00:02:52

There we go.

63

: 00:02:53

Benjamin: I got it.

64

: 00:02:53

it's been a morning: Ugh.

65

: 00:02:56

Benjamin: Those movies, I don't

know how John Carpenter got away

66

: 00:03:00

with, like, isn't- they didn't even

lampshade it like 22 Jump Street where

67

: 00:03:06

they're like, "We'll do it again with

just the same thing, and we do it

68

: 00:03:12

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

69

: 00:03:12

it's been a morning: 22

Jump Street was so good.

70

: 00:03:14

Benjamin: again."

71

: 00:03:16

it's been a morning: So much

better than it had any right to be

72

: 00:03:18

Benjamin: Yes.

73

: 00:03:20

I, I just rewatched the "My name

is Jeff" scene again, , because

74

: 00:03:25

I'm actually gonna tell Glo to use

it as an example for, , for her

75

: 00:03:30

improv club at high-- in, in school.

76

: 00:03:33

Because, it is everything wro- like,

every wrong move you make in an

77

: 00:03:39

improv scene is what they do in that.

78

: 00:03:42

it's been a morning: Yeah, you

have to do the, the 30 Rock,

79

: 00:03:45

uh, Oprah and Sling Blade too.

80

: 00:03:48

Benjamin: Yes.

81

: 00:03:51

it's been a morning: "I sure

do love these fried potatoes."

82

: 00:03:54

"No you don't, Oprah."

83

: 00:03:59

Benjamin: Yeah, but

84

: 00:04:00

it's been a morning: God

85

: 00:04:00

Benjamin: was cool seeing Steve

Buscemi, uh, getting involved in this.

86

: 00:04:04

I know he would later go on to

be in the sort of quasi-successor

87

: 00:04:09

series Boardwalk Empire

88

: 00:04:12

it's been a morning: Hmm.

89

: 00:04:14

Yeah, he's done a bit of directing.

90

: 00:04:16

Like, this was not, like,

his first rodeo or anything.

91

: 00:04:20

He had done a number of, , TV

show directing gigs in the past,

92

: 00:04:23

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, I had to go, I had

to go back and check the other episodes

93

: 00:04:26

we'd already watched to see if, , this

is just something I hadn't noticed.

94

: 00:04:29

I was like, "Nope, it just,

uh, yep, Steve Buscemi.

95

: 00:04:32

Here he is."

96

: 00:04:33

it's been a morning: Yeah.

97

: 00:04:34

I, I mean, I took a look at his

directing credits just 'cause I was

98

: 00:04:37

curious, 'cause I had no idea it was

something he was doing, and he does

99

: 00:04:40

do three episodes of The Sopranos.

100

: 00:04:41

This is the first.

101

: 00:04:43

Benjamin: Cool

102

: 00:04:43

it's been a morning: So we'll see if

we land on another one, but, they're

103

: 00:04:46

later in the show, Season 6 and 7.

104

: 00:04:48

So yeah.

105

: 00:04:50

Yeah, it was a nice little,

uh, surprise though.

106

: 00:04:52

It's a fun twist.

107

: 00:04:55

TheMotionVictor: Speaking

of surprises, , we,

108

: 00:04:57

, , it's been a morning: We open on the boat.

109

: 00:04:58

Benjamin: Yeah

110

: 00:04:59

TheMotionVictor: the

111

: 00:04:59

it's been a morning: The boat.

112

: 00:05:00

Yeah, the pussy murder boat.

113

: 00:05:02

It, it got a paint job,

but it's the same boat

114

: 00:05:04

Benjamin: Yep, I recognized it.

115

: 00:05:06

Also, I appreciating how in this first

scene we see a woman we don't know yet,

116

: 00:05:12

, pulling up, and the music switches from,

to diegetic, and I thought that was fun.

117

: 00:05:20

, And I'm just like, "Oh,

that's, this is fun.

118

: 00:05:21

I'm enjoying this."

119

: 00:05:22

Like, the only thing that would be dumb is

if, like, they're playing the song Gloria

120

: 00:05:26

because this woman's name is Gloria.

121

: 00:05:29

, Well,

122

: 00:05:29

it's been a morning: And

that's exactly what it is.

123

: 00:05:31

Yep

124

: 00:05:32

TheMotionVictor: I just noticed

that, , you should always fear

125

: 00:05:35

a woman who wears two hats.

126

: 00:05:37

it's been a morning: See, I

knew this was Aglow because of

127

: 00:05:39

her intolerance for bullshit

128

: 00:05:41

TheMotionVictor: Ah.

129

: 00:05:43

Oh, I forgot about that, yeah.

130

: 00:05:45

But, uh, yeah, she, she puts on a hat, and

then she puts on a hat on top of her hat.

131

: 00:05:49

I was like, "Oh, if,

132

: 00:05:51

it's been a morning: Double hat

133

: 00:05:52

TheMotionVictor: if Kai Winn has

taught me anything, it's to fear

134

: 00:05:55

the woman with multiple hats."

135

: 00:05:57

it's been a morning: That's good call.

136

: 00:05:58

Good call.

137

: 00:05:59

Benjamin: so we have Gloria here.

138

: 00:06:01

She has just returned from Morocco,

and she answers the phone on Tony's

139

: 00:06:08

boat, and it is Tony's ex-girlfriend,

pretending to be from the school

140

: 00:06:15

and doing a not very convincing job.

141

: 00:06:19

Have I hurt you?

142

: 00:06:20

Don't be silly.

143

: 00:06:21

Acting.

144

: 00:06:22

Brilliant.

145

: 00:06:23

Thank you.

146

: 00:06:23

Thank you.

147

: 00:06:24

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

148

: 00:06:25

it's been a morning: Yeah

149

: 00:06:25

Benjamin: I wanna ask you

guys, Gloria, not Moroccan.

150

: 00:06:31

Why did she go to Morocco?

151

: 00:06:34

What happened to her?

152

: 00:06:40

TheMotionVictor: Well, she

went 100% just to buy that,

153

: 00:06:43

, bathrobe that she gives Tony.

154

: 00:06:46

it's been a morning:

Some fine Moroccan silks.

155

: 00:06:48

TheMotionVictor: 100 per- 100

156

: 00:06:49

it's been a morning: to the bazaar,

157

: 00:06:51

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

158

: 00:06:51

it's been a morning: a hat that fits her

159

: 00:06:52

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

160

: 00:06:53

Oh, yes.

161

: 00:06:55

She, she needed some…

162

: 00:06:56

She needed a very specific hat.

163

: 00:06:58

She collects hats.

164

: 00:06:59

She looks like the kind of

person who collects hats.

165

: 00:07:03

, it's been a morning: She really needed

a fez, which is why she went to Morocco

166

: 00:07:07

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, you can

only buy fezzes in Morocco.

167

: 00:07:09

Yeah.

168

: 00:07:10

Benjamin: I've

169

: 00:07:10

it's been a morning: True story

170

: 00:07:11

Benjamin: understood the

hat that isn't big enough to

171

: 00:07:16

provide you any sun protection.

172

: 00:07:18

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

173

: 00:07:19

Benjamin: You know, no matter what they

are, like, give me, give me brim please.

174

: 00:07:28

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

175

: 00:07:29

Isn't it true that, that you can only

call a hat a fez is if it's from Morocco?

176

: 00:07:35

it's just,

177

: 00:07:35

it's been a morning: It's like champagne?

178

: 00:07:36

TheMotionVictor: it's sparkling headgear.

179

: 00:07:38

it's been a morning: Yeah.

180

: 00:07:39

Got it.

181

: 00:07:40

Nailed it, Vic.

182

: 00:07:41

Sorry I ruined your joke there by

jumping in half a step too early

183

: 00:07:44

TheMotionVictor: I do it all the time.

184

: 00:07:46

it's been a morning: This is what hap-

So you've been up for about five minutes.

185

: 00:07:49

I've been up for about five

hours, and this is the difference

186

: 00:07:53

TheMotionVictor: 20, 25 minutes.

187

: 00:07:54

Almost exactly 25 minutes

188

: 00:07:56

Benjamin: Then why were

189

: 00:07:56

it's been a morning: Okay

190

: 00:07:57

Benjamin: record?

191

: 00:08:00

it's been a morning: Ben, we've

been recording for 10 minutes.

192

: 00:08:04

TheMotionVictor: No, I, I had to

get out of bed, I had to go down

193

: 00:08:07

a Red Bull, and then I had to

get a second Red Bull and eat a

194

: 00:08:10

it's been a morning: Mm

195

: 00:08:11

TheMotionVictor: So

196

: 00:08:11

it's been a morning: six

197

: 00:08:12

TheMotionVictor: we go.

198

: 00:08:14

it's been a morning: All right.

199

: 00:08:15

I can respect that.

200

: 00:08:16

of things I can respect, we see, , we

cut to Paulie Walnuts getting a manicure.

201

: 00:08:20

Now pair off as I draw your names.

202

: 00:08:23

Lenny and Carl.

203

: 00:08:25

Aw, nuts.

204

: 00:08:27

I mean, um, ah, nuts

205

: 00:08:30

TheMotionVictor: Hold up.

206

: 00:08:31

Hold

207

: 00:08:32

it's been a morning: Oh, okay.

208

: 00:08:33

Okay.

209

: 00:08:33

Okay.

210

: 00:08:34

TheMotionVictor: she gets

211

: 00:08:34

it's been a morning: Other things.

212

: 00:08:35

Yeah

213

: 00:08:35

TheMotionVictor: okay, Tony admits

that, , that he was lying, and then

214

: 00:08:38

she gets mad that he was lying.

215

: 00:08:40

That's why I say you should

always absolute candor, and

216

: 00:08:43

absolute candor 100% everywhere.

217

: 00:08:45

Saves you, saves you time and headache.

218

: 00:08:47

And

219

: 00:08:48

Benjamin: You don't have

to remember any lies

220

: 00:08:50

TheMotionVictor: Exactly, yeah.

221

: 00:08:51

And then she throws the Christmas

present she got Tony out the boat window.

222

: 00:08:56

So I'm gonna say, "Well, how about her?

223

: 00:08:59

What was in the, what was in the box?

224

: 00:09:01

was in the box?"

225

: 00:09:03

it's been a morning: It

was a tiny little box.

226

: 00:09:04

It definitely wasn't the gift she

gives him from Morocco later in

227

: 00:09:07

the episode that she went and got.

228

: 00:09:09

It was way too small for that.

229

: 00:09:11

What's in the box?

230

: 00:09:12

I'm gonna say, uh, a finger

of one of Tony's enemies

231

: 00:09:17

Benjamin: Ooh.

232

: 00:09:19

She does have a

cut-off-a-guy's-finger energy.

233

: 00:09:23

Uh,

234

: 00:09:25

uh, no, I'm gonna say, uh, she seems

like somebody more money than taste.

235

: 00:09:35

I know fashion trends have changed

since, like,: 2000

236

: 00:09:40

when this show was m- uh, being filmed.

237

: 00:09:44

But I found her outfit

to be absolutely hideous.

238

: 00:09:48

and so I'm assuming she spends

money assuming expensive means good.

239

: 00:09:54

And she's like, "Tony, I'm back

with these fine Moroccan cigars."

240

: 00:09:59

Uh, and they are, like,

really cheap, terrible cigars.

241

: 00:10:04

But she paid a lot of money for

them, so she doesn't know it.

242

: 00:10:07

TheMotionVictor: They're the

243

: 00:10:07

Benjamin: so she actually s- saved

Tony from having to smoke these awful

244

: 00:10:12

cigars by throwing them in the drink

245

: 00:10:17

TheMotionVictor: They're just

the same brand of cigars you

246

: 00:10:18

can get at the gas station.

247

: 00:10:19

She just bought them in

Morocco at a Moroccan

248

: 00:10:21

Benjamin: They are Sub Swisher Sweets

249

: 00:10:24

TheMotionVictor: Nice.

250

: 00:10:25

it's been a morning: It's rough

251

: 00:10:26

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

252

: 00:10:27

So yeah, we cut over to

Paulie getting his nails done.

253

: 00:10:30

it's been a morning: Yeah.

254

: 00:10:31

Uh, he gets called

255

: 00:10:33

Benjamin: who the other guy's name is.

256

: 00:10:35

we've got Paulie, and

the other guy is Silvio

257

: 00:10:39

TheMotionVictor: that's right, yeah.

258

: 00:10:40

it's been a morning: Oh, they do say it.

259

: 00:10:41

Yep

260

: 00:10:43

Benjamin: Here near the end of season

three, we finally learn this guy's name.

261

: 00:10:50

, And so Silvio is sick, and so Paulie

has to cut short his mani-pedi and…

262

: 00:10:57

I don't know, it was just a mani.

263

: 00:10:58

He still had his shoes on.

264

: 00:10:59

it's been a morning: Yeah,

he started a shoot song

265

: 00:11:01

Benjamin: but, uh, he has to go get f-

266

: 00:11:02

TheMotionVictor: his shoes on.

267

: 00:11:03

Benjamin: five grand from

somebody who owes him the money

268

: 00:11:07

it's been a morning: Yep.

269

: 00:11:08

Uh

270

: 00:11:09

TheMotionVictor: Carmela and Tony are

now, are now both in therapy, couples

271

: 00:11:13

Benjamin: counseling

272

: 00:11:14

it's been a morning: Yep, still with Dr.

273

: 00:11:15

Melfi, which is convenient for casting,

but unusual in terms of this type of

274

: 00:11:21

therapy from my understanding of it.

275

: 00:11:22

TheMotionVictor: Yeah,

it's happened to me before.

276

: 00:11:25

it's been a morning: so all right.

277

: 00:11:28

Well, anyways, uh, they talk about

not liking Meadow's boyfriend

278

: 00:11:33

TheMotionVictor: Yeah,

279

: 00:11:33

Benjamin: Yeah

280

: 00:11:34

TheMotionVictor: to bond over there.

281

: 00:11:35

That's nice.

282

: 00:11:36

it's been a morning: Yeah.

283

: 00:11:36

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

284

: 00:11:37

Apparently

285

: 00:11:38

it's been a morning: that guy

286

: 00:11:38

TheMotionVictor: scared

off the previous boyfriend.

287

: 00:11:41

Benjamin: Yep.

288

: 00:11:42

TheMotionVictor: with

289

: 00:11:42

Benjamin: I'm gonna say last time on,

was pretty racist to the Black boyfriend

290

: 00:11:46

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

291

: 00:11:47

Yeah, I was gonna say that was, that

was implied that, uh, that he, he was…

292

: 00:11:50

Yeah, it was like,

293

: 00:11:53

it's been a morning: Yeah

294

: 00:11:54

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, the

doctor was all, what did she say?

295

: 00:11:55

She said, , she was like, "Oh, yeah,

the African American young gentleman."

296

: 00:11:59

And Tony's just like, "Yeah, come on."

297

: 00:12:01

Like, oh, God, Tony.

298

: 00:12:04

it's been a morning: Big yikes

299

: 00:12:07

TheMotionVictor: I mean, you're already

a freaking mob boss and, uh, and a,

300

: 00:12:10

and a murderer and a extortionist.

301

: 00:12:13

Don't be racist too, man.

302

: 00:12:14

Come on.

303

: 00:12:14

That's too much.

304

: 00:12:16

it's been a morning: For sure.

305

: 00:12:18

Benjamin: Pick one negative

character trait at a time

306

: 00:12:22

, it's been a morning: Speaking of

Me- Meadow's terrible boyfriend, we

307

: 00:12:24

cut over to Meadow and her terrible

boyfriend playing Scrabble, and they

308

: 00:12:28

really go out of their way to make

this guy look like a big fucking idiot

309

: 00:12:33

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, he is, he's…

310

: 00:12:34

Yeah.

311

: 00:12:34

And Meadow is, , is very sick as well.

312

: 00:12:36

And this, this was around the point that

I realized that this is around Christmas

313

: 00:12:41

time, even though, what's her name?

314

: 00:12:43

The- Gloria, I'm pretty sure mentioned it

earlier, giving him a Christmas present.

315

: 00:12:47

But I was like, "Oh, okay,

so it is wintertime because

316

: 00:12:50

everyone's getting sick."

317

: 00:12:52

but yeah, she's playing Scrabble

with her boyfriend, and he is just

318

: 00:12:55

being Schrödinger's douchebag.

319

: 00:12:57

I hate it when people do this.

320

: 00:13:00

Benjamin: The…

321

: 00:13:01

Yeah, the,

322

: 00:13:02

TheMotionVictor: hey, why

don't you give me some ass?"

323

: 00:13:03

And she's just like, "Come on, I'm sick."

324

: 00:13:05

And he goes, "Yeah, I was just kidding."

325

: 00:13:07

Ah.

326

: 00:13:07

Benjamin: you're not.

327

: 00:13:08

Unless unless…

328

: 00:13:09

I'm, it is absolutely Schrodinger's

douchebag where, uh, I'm, I'm 100%

329

: 00:13:14

serious until you get offended,

and then it was just a joke.

330

: 00:13:18

This

331

: 00:13:18

is this is 4chan This is,

332

: 00:13:23

this is everybody, "I'm not

actually a Nazi, I'm just a troll."

333

: 00:13:26

And it's like, then you're a Nazi.

334

: 00:13:30

"I'm not just a douchebag,

I was just making a joke."

335

: 00:13:32

No, you're just a douchebag.

336

: 00:13:34

be careful who you pretend to be

because you are who you pretend to be

337

: 00:13:39

TheMotionVictor: And then the camera

points out that all of the, all of

338

: 00:13:43

the Scrabble words that he's been

made are just three-letter words.

339

: 00:13:48

it's been a morning: Yeah.

340

: 00:13:48

Yeah.

341

: 00:13:50

Benjamin: He also is

342

: 00:13:51

it's been a morning: classic

Scrabble hits as "ass" and "the."

343

: 00:13:54

Benjamin: Yeah.

344

: 00:13:56

He also drops the, you're sick.

345

: 00:13:58

Wanna do some X?"

346

: 00:14:00

And it's like, know what I

really don't want right now?

347

: 00:14:03

My senses heightened.

348

: 00:14:05

Uh,

349

: 00:14:12

it's been a morning: Good call.

350

: 00:14:13

Sounds like a bad time

351

: 00:14:15

Benjamin: And then he does a fake, like

a horrific fake yawn and, , peaces out.

352

: 00:14:20

And I'm just like, "Meadow,

just shoot him now.

353

: 00:14:22

Please, just shoot him now."

354

: 00:14:25

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, we find out later

that he is fully aware of who he's dating.

355

: 00:14:29

Benjamin: Yes

356

: 00:14:31

TheMotionVictor: like, yeah.

357

: 00:14:31

it's been a morning: There's,

there's more to it there too.

358

: 00:14:33

We'll talk about it when

we get to the scene,

359

: 00:14:35

TheMotionVictor: yeah

360

: 00:14:36

it's been a morning: says some things too.

361

: 00:14:37

we go over to Paulie and Christopher who

go to that Russian to get the money, and

362

: 00:14:42

Paulie just can't resist being an ass.

363

: 00:14:45

Benjamin: No, he's a

364

: 00:14:46

it's been a morning: And it…

365

: 00:14:47

Benjamin: dick.

366

: 00:14:47

Also, here is where, J- Victor

found out that, uh, X-Men First

367

: 00:14:52

Class is based on a true story.

368

: 00:14:56

TheMotionVictor: They're s- they're

making fun of Russians, saying it's

369

: 00:14:58

like, "Russians aren't all that bad."

370

: 00:15:00

He's like, "Yeah, what about the

time they sent all those missiles to

371

: 00:15:02

Cuba and pointed them right at us?"

372

: 00:15:04

I was like, "Oh, yeah, that was…"

373

: 00:15:06

Is it, was it Christopher?

374

: 00:15:07

It was Christopher who said, "Oh,

I thought that was just a movie."

375

: 00:15:10

Benjamin: Yeah

376

: 00:15:10

TheMotionVictor: I had to stop and

go look up when X-Men First Class

377

: 00:15:13

came out to, to make sure that

wasn't what was being referred to.

378

: 00:15:17

Benjamin: I am assuming it was JFK

379

: 00:15:19

it's been a morning: Yeah, I mean,

there were a couple movies that, yeah

380

: 00:15:23

Benjamin: But yeah, these are

the two kinds of really dumb guy.

381

: 00:15:27

The guy who's just like, "I

learned one fact, and that is

382

: 00:15:31

all I'll ever need to know."

383

: 00:15:33

TheMotionVictor: What is,

uh, what is the term for it?

384

: 00:15:34

Is it flander- flanderism

385

: 00:15:37

Benjamin: Well, so being Flanderized

is when a character, like, they, as the

386

: 00:15:42

show progresses, cut away everything

else and just make you one trope

387

: 00:15:47

TheMotionVictor: I think that's what's

happening with these guy- I think these

388

: 00:15:49

guys are gonna get dumber as the seasons

389

: 00:15:51

Benjamin: I think they've always been

this dumb, and this is one thing I really

390

: 00:15:54

like about this show, is it is kind of

ni- or yeah, a '90s like grittier take

391

: 00:16:01

on The Godfather where it's just like,

"No, these guys are fucking morons."

392

: 00:16:07

, Where they're not sitting there,

you know, in suits having,

393

: 00:16:10

you know, nice conversation.

394

: 00:16:12

It's oops, all Sonnys.

395

: 00:16:15

it's been a morning: Yeah

396

: 00:16:17

TheMotionVictor: I wonder if they're, , if

to join the mafia, they don't, they don't

397

: 00:16:20

even really have any kind of application,

like, , an aptitude test or anything

398

: 00:16:24

Benjamin: No,

399

: 00:16:24

it's,

400

: 00:16:24

TheMotionVictor: out

401

: 00:16:25

Benjamin: it's who you're related to

and your willingness to commit violence

402

: 00:16:30

TheMotionVictor: Oh man, it's too early.

403

: 00:16:31

There's a good joke in there that I

could make about who you're related to

404

: 00:16:35

and your willingness commit violence.

405

: 00:16:38

Fuck.

406

: 00:16:39

It's right there.

407

: 00:16:40

It's right there.

408

: 00:16:40

You

409

: 00:16:40

Benjamin: If you could have remembered it,

you'd be an officer instead of enlisted

410

: 00:16:45

TheMotionVictor: this is true.

411

: 00:16:45

This is true.

412

: 00:16:46

Yeah.

413

: 00:16:47

Listeners on the Discord,

414

: 00:16:49

416

: 00:16:51

He's, you know what?

But yeah, Discord listeners,

Benjamin: Should we make a new channel

for, , I'm forgetting the French

422

: 00:17:03

term, but it's, , the something

of the escalier, the thought of

423

: 00:17:06

the stairwell, the, the like, the

424

: 00:17:08

it's been a morning: Yeah

425

Benjamin: comeback after the conversation

has ended, where we can just stick

426

: 00:17:12

our, "I should have made this" jokes?

427

: 00:17:16

TheMotionVictor: Oh, yeah.

428

: 00:17:16

I've texted people like days

later, been like, "By the way,"

429

: 00:17:21

yeah

430

: 00:17:22

Benjamin: Uh, Victor,

431

: 00:17:23

it's been a morning: Gotcha

432

: 00:17:23

Benjamin: you get your almost wish.

433

: 00:17:25

It's not Tony, but our guy Valerie here

has a crazy home entertainment system

434

: 00:17:32

it's been a morning: Yeah

435

: 00:17:33

TheMotionVictor: Oh yeah, the, yeah.

436

: 00:17:35

He,

437

: 00:17:35

Benjamin: And he has a universal remote

438

: 00:17:38

TheMotionVictor: I recognized that

439

: 00:17:39

it's been a morning: station

440

: 00:17:40

TheMotionVictor: That thing was

like 300, almost $400 back in

441

: 00:17:43

the, back around that timeframe.

442

: 00:17:45

it's been a morning:

It's the cost of a TV now

443

: 00:17:46

Benjamin: Yeah

444

: 00:17:47

TheMotionVictor: That was saved in

my wishlist, I, I remember, 'cause

445

: 00:17:49

it, it had a, it had a fucking It

446

: 00:17:54

Benjamin: Jesus

447

: 00:17:55

TheMotionVictor: universal remote.

448

: 00:17:56

Yeah, and you had to program

it, and it had a menu.

449

: 00:17:59

Oh, that thing was so cool.

450

: 00:18:00

I figured that would be

the last remote I ever buy.

451

: 00:18:03

, It was b- yeah.

452

: 00:18:04

Anyway, I, I appreciated this guy's

taste in, overpriced electronics.

453

: 00:18:08

Benjamin: But he's just

sitting there morning drunk

454

: 00:18:12

which is a special kind of drunk

455

: 00:18:14

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

456

: 00:18:15

A, a special kind of drunk for two

Italian mobsters to come in and be like,

457

: 00:18:19

"Isn't it early, a little bit early to be

458

: 00:18:20

Benjamin: Right

459

: 00:18:21

TheMotionVictor: So

460

: 00:18:24

it's been a morning: Yikes

461

: 00:18:26

Benjamin: of Restraint,

Christopher, is like, "Oh."

462

: 00:18:34

And this is the smoothest money

pickup I've ever seen in a crime

463

: 00:18:41

thing where the guy's just like,

"Money is on, is on, uh, stereo.

464

: 00:18:47

away."

465

: 00:18:48

it's been a morning: Mm-hmm.

466

: 00:18:49

Benjamin: But he dares to be like,

"Hey, put my universal remote

467

: 00:18:53

back on the docking station."

468

: 00:18:56

And I'm gonna say

469

: 00:18:57

it's been a morning: That's the line

470

: 00:18:58

Benjamin: Paulie is

going through something

471

: 00:19:02

TheMotionVictor: Hmm.

472

: 00:19:03

Benjamin: Paulie is

473

: 00:19:08

nuts in this episode.

474

: 00:19:10

it's been a morning: That's fair

475

: 00:19:11

TheMotionVictor: I think he's,

yeah, , like legit, I think he's,

476

: 00:19:14

, he's getting older and he's getting

frustrated with being passed over

477

: 00:19:18

so much because he mentions that, he

mentions that, , that Tony doesn't

478

: 00:19:23

appreciate the amount of money he made

for him, and then he's like, "And his

479

: 00:19:26

father also didn't appreciate the, the

kind of money that I made for him."

480

: 00:19:30

So it's like he's been,

he's been in this job longer

481

: 00:19:33

it's been a morning: Yeah.

482

: 00:19:34

And he, I mean, they make a big deal

about how he's a captain, like so much so

483

: 00:19:39

that it ha- must have happened recently.

484

: 00:19:42

so

485

: 00:19:43

TheMotionVictor: point.

486

: 00:19:43

Yeah, he's a

487

: 00:19:43

it's been a morning: yeah

488

: 00:19:44

TheMotionVictor: Yeah

489

: 00:19:46

it's been a morning: They don't say

capo, they say captain repeatedly

490

: 00:19:49

TheMotionVictor: Well then why

do they, why, why, why, why do

491

: 00:19:51

they even use the term capo?

492

: 00:19:53

Like,

493

: 00:19:53

Benjamin: 'Cause that's the Italian of it.

494

: 00:19:55

TheMotionVictor: Okay.

495

: 00:19:56

Eh-

496

: 00:19:57

Benjamin: uh,

497

: 00:19:58

it's been a morning: Yeah

498

: 00:19:59

Benjamin: s- he oops and smashes the

universal remote, which breaks real easy.

499

: 00:20:06

, The quality control on that is not great.

500

: 00:20:08

, And the guy gets pissed, and

they glass him, and they are

501

: 00:20:13

getting their asses kicked.

502

: 00:20:16

Don't know why, but I think I'll

kick SpongeBob's butt tomorrow.

503

: 00:20:20

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, th-

504

: 00:20:20

it's been a morning: Yeah

505

: 00:20:21

TheMotionVictor: guy is huge.

506

: 00:20:22

This

507

: 00:20:23

Benjamin: And finally, Paulie

chokes him out with a lamp.

508

: 00:20:27

And if you think, "Lamp?

509

: 00:20:28

That's weird."

510

: 00:20:29

It is a floor lamp.

511

: 00:20:30

It is like holding a barbell

over this guy's, , throat.

512

: 00:20:35

, And then they're like,

"Oh, oops, we killed him.

513

: 00:20:38

, We were just supposed to get the money.

514

: 00:20:40

What do we do now?"

515

: 00:20:42

All right, well, , you can tell

this guy is Eastern European

516

: 00:20:45

because he has carpets on the walls.

517

: 00:20:47

TheMotionVictor: Yes.

518

: 00:20:49

Benjamin: so they grab him and roll him

up, and they have, conveniently, a dolly.

519

: 00:20:54

Um,

520

: 00:20:54

TheMotionVictor: Угу

521

: 00:20:54

Benjamin: so this guy gets trunked

522

: 00:20:56

TheMotionVictor: It, and the

way that they, they, they…

523

: 00:21:00

I mean, the way that they carry

the body out to put him in the

524

: 00:21:03

trunk, why even bother wrapping

him in the, in, in the carpet?

525

: 00:21:08

It's so fucking obvious that these

two dudes are throwing a dead body,

526

: 00:21:12

or quotes, "dead body" in the trunk.

527

: 00:21:15

Like, what, what are you guys

bother even looking around for?

528

: 00:21:18

Like, come on.

529

: 00:21:20

it's been a morning: Yeah, I

530

: 00:21:20

mean,

531

: 00:21:20

gotta you gotta, make

some kinda effort, right?

532

: 00:21:24

It's a big carpet, guys, I promise.

533

: 00:21:26

Benjamin: Нет

534

: 00:21:27

it's been a morning: It's,

even though it's shaped like a

535

: 00:21:28

body and taped up, it's fine.

536

: 00:21:31

. TheMotionVictor: At this point I

didn't, I didn't h- realize what

537

: 00:21:33

her name was, so in my notes I just

call Gloria the East Coast mistress.

538

: 00:21:37

, 'Cause he's, he's, he's got his

Russian mistress and then he's

539

: 00:21:39

got his East Coast mistress.

540

: 00:21:40

So in a hotel room with, with Tony.

541

: 00:21:44

gives him the Moroccan pajamas and

542

: 00:21:47

Benjamin: Which is not a euphemism.

543

: 00:21:48

Uh

544

: 00:21:51

TheMotionVictor: Moroccan pajamas.

545

: 00:21:55

They, they, they…

546

: 00:21:55

This looks 100% something

like Tony would wear.

547

: 00:22:00

it's been a morning: Yeah.

548

: 00:22:01

Benjamin: cool robe

549

: 00:22:02

it's been a morning: Looks comfy

550

: 00:22:03

TheMotionVictor: It

looks, it looks too nice.

551

: 00:22:05

Like, I wouldn't wear it

because it's too nice.

552

: 00:22:10

Um,

553

: 00:22:13

see.

554

: 00:22:13

So then East Coast girl puts on

her skirt and fishnets and says

555

: 00:22:16

she has to go back to work, and

invites him over for a London broil.

556

: 00:22:21

And damn, dude, that just, mm,

that made my stomach rumbly.

557

: 00:22:25

Benjamin: Well, before that, we get

558

: 00:22:27

TheMotionVictor: in a

559

: 00:22:27

Benjamin: they are mid, mid-coitus,

560

: 00:22:29

TheMotionVictor: yeah

561

: 00:22:31

Benjamin: They call,

they keep calling Tony

562

: 00:22:35

TheMotionVictor: Yes.

563

: 00:22:36

Benjamin: him nothing.

564

: 00:22:38

which is

565

: 00:22:39

it's been a morning: Yeah

566

: 00:22:39

Benjamin: I f- I, I think Tony , some

anger at Paulie because Paulie is

567

: 00:22:46

the subordinate who is just always

just checking in and not like,

568

: 00:22:54

not with anything that you can do.

569

: 00:22:57

I don't know.

570

: 00:22:58

This is some- something where

it's like I've been in management

571

: 00:23:02

positions where it's just like, "You

were at a different store from me.

572

: 00:23:06

I can't help you move that box.

573

: 00:23:09

TheMotionVictor: Right

574

: 00:23:10

it's been a morning: Yeah

575

: 00:23:11

Benjamin: to figure out how

to get to the thing you need.

576

: 00:23:13

can't help you

577

: 00:23:15

TheMotionVictor: you know what's so

frustrating is I have experienced this

578

: 00:23:18

in the opposite manner so many times

where my boss would be calling me

579

: 00:23:23

Benjamin: Mm-hmm

580

: 00:23:24

TheMotionVictor: are just completely--

that are so far completely out of my

581

: 00:23:28

lane and above my pay grade, and it's

like, "What, why are you telling me this?

582

: 00:23:32

I don't…

583

: 00:23:33

your fucking job," you know?

584

: 00:23:36

Ugh.

585

: 00:23:37

Yeah.

586

: 00:23:37

Ugh.

587

: 00:23:38

Benjamin: But,

588

: 00:23:39

TheMotionVictor: I'm

589

: 00:23:39

Benjamin: they have not

eaten, , Paulie and Chris.

590

: 00:23:42

And so just like, "Let's

just get some food."

591

: 00:23:46

And Paulie's like, "Nah, we'll bury

this guy and then go to Atlantic City."

592

: 00:23:51

And, , just he makes zero right

calls, , in this entire episode.

593

: 00:23:57

TheMotionVictor: Угу

594

: 00:23:59

, Benjamin: But

595

: 00:24:00

it's been a morning: Yeah

596

: 00:24:00

Benjamin: I guess Gloria

doesn't know what Tony does.

597

: 00:24:06

Uh

598

: 00:24:07

TheMotionVictor: jury's out on that one.

599

: 00:24:08

I'm, I'm not 100% sure

600

: 00:24:10

Benjamin: It seems like the sort of thing

where is being portrayed as incredibly

601

: 00:24:14

a, a volatile person, but it could

just be, "I don't quite understand,

602

: 00:24:21

like, why my boyfriend is so distant,"

and not, "Oh, I'm a gangster's moll.

603

: 00:24:28

Like, I need to treat life

a little bit differently."

604

: 00:24:32

, So she's mad that he stopped, took a

phone call in the middle of Pound Town,

605

: 00:24:39

and now she's like, "You know what?

606

: 00:24:41

We're done.

607

: 00:24:41

You can come over for dinner at 9:00."

608

: 00:24:45

it's been a morning: Right?

609

: 00:24:46

TheMotionVictor: Well,

610

: 00:24:47

Benjamin: just rude.

611

: 00:24:48

TheMotionVictor: I, I think

she 100%, I mean, she has to at

612

: 00:24:52

least know that he's married.

613

: 00:24:53

Benjamin: She does

614

: 00:24:55

TheMotionVictor: so she's having the late

dinner so he can have his family dinner

615

: 00:24:59

and has- still have time to go, I think.

616

: 00:25:02

But then again, she doesn't

strike me as the type of person

617

: 00:25:04

who thinks that far ahead.

618

: 00:25:06

Either way, , but we did, we did…

619

: 00:25:09

I did notice that, , when Paulie

and Christopher stop at the gas

620

: 00:25:12

station, , while they still have

the Russian corpse in their trunk,

621

: 00:25:16

Benjamin: Yes

622

: 00:25:17

TheMotionVictor: by, and the

camera makes a point of showing us

623

: 00:25:20

this random family who says hi to

Paulie, like, "Hey, how you doing?"

624

: 00:25:24

And then Paulie gives him a, a scowl.

625

: 00:25:26

I think this is, uh, what they call

in the cinema industry foreshadowing.

626

: 00:25:34

I, I, I, , yeah, I, I have a feeling.

627

: 00:25:37

We'll, we'll, we'll

circle back to that when,

628

: 00:25:39

Benjamin: I just think it's supposed

to give you kind of the idea of the

629

: 00:25:42

anxiety of, and something that would

be completely innocuous in most other

630

: 00:25:48

situations, how absolutely terrifying it

is when you've got a body in the trunk

631

: 00:25:55

it's been a morning: Yeah

632

: 00:25:56

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

633

: 00:25:57

Um

634

: 00:25:58

Benjamin: You know, it's the sort

of thing where it's like, hey,

635

: 00:26:00

under most circumstances, you're

not worried, , you know, when, like,

636

: 00:26:05

pass a police car on the street.

637

: 00:26:07

But when you've got seven of your

buddies crammed into the back, , because

638

: 00:26:12

you're all, you know, you only

had the one car and you're like,

639

: 00:26:15

"Well, this is totally illegal."

640

: 00:26:16

You're just like, "Oh, please don't

notice how many people," you know?

641

: 00:26:21

TheMotionVictor: I love that that's the

most illegal thing Ben has ever done.

642

: 00:26:24

God, you you, you

beautiful snowflake, Ben.

643

: 00:26:28

Benjamin: No, it's just, every- all

the other illegal stuff, there are no

644

: 00:26:32

witnesses 'cause I'm not s- 'cause I'm

645

: 00:26:34

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, 'cause

you, you are, yeah, you do think

646

: 00:26:36

Benjamin: smart.

647

: 00:26:37

, TheMotionVictor: But yeah, they're,

they're talking about how it's

648

: 00:26:39

like, "Yeah, okay, listen, we'll

just, we'll just go out into the

649

: 00:26:41

woods, and then we'll go get a steak

somewhere," and just so casually

650

: 00:26:45

talking about, , what they're gonna do.

651

: 00:26:48

, Oh yeah, yeah, this is, this is where

they drop the title of the episode.

652

: 00:26:51

They say they're gonna take the

corpse down to Pine Barrens, and

653

: 00:26:53

as soon as they say that, I'm like,

"Oh, no, they're gonna get lost."

654

: 00:26:56

So

655

: 00:26:57

it's been a morning: Yep.

656

: 00:26:58

The epitomous Pine Barrens.

657

: 00:27:01

And afterwards they can go

to Atlantic City and have a

658

: 00:27:03

steak, a shower, some blackjack

659

: 00:27:05

Benjamin: Yeah。

660

: 00:27:06

TheMotionVictor: Uh, then we go

back to the therapist where, , it's

661

: 00:27:09

revealed that Gloria was another

one of the do- w- the Dr.

662

: 00:27:13

Belphy's clients.

663

: 00:27:15

Benjamin: Yeah

664

: 00:27:17

TheMotionVictor: it sound- they make

it sound like an accident, because

665

: 00:27:19

I was just thinking, "Oh, great.

666

: 00:27:20

Doctor-patient confidentiality

out the fucking window."

667

: 00:27:23

Um, but, Tony is totally

hitting on the doctor.

668

: 00:27:27

And, at the same time, he asserts that

by cheating and lying to his wife, that

669

: 00:27:34

that is making him a better husband.

670

: 00:27:38

That

671

: 00:27:39

Benjamin: Yeah.

672

: 00:27:39

TheMotionVictor: is a fucking

level of delulu narcissism that

673

: 00:27:43

usually only politicians attain.

674

: 00:27:46

Like, my God, dude.

675

: 00:27:47

Benjamin: I

676

: 00:27:48

mean, it is the plot of one

episode of Friends, but, uh

677

: 00:27:52

TheMotionVictor: It, uh,

678

: 00:27:54

it's been a morning: Is it?

679

: 00:27:55

Benjamin: Yeah, Joey finds out his

dad is cheating on his mom, and he

680

: 00:27:58

tries to get her, get him to end

it, and his mom is like, "Stop it.

681

: 00:28:02

He's got a hobby, and he's finally, like,

being nice and engaged l- in, in life

682

: 00:28:07

again and, like, buying me flowers."

683

: 00:28:10

TheMotionVictor: Oh, wow.

684

: 00:28:12

Oh,

685

: 00:28:12

Benjamin: The '90s were

an interesting time.

686

: 00:28:15

TheMotionVictor: though?

687

: 00:28:16

Benjamin: I also appreciated,

, looking back, this first

688

: 00:28:19

scene where he's, she's, , Dr.

689

: 00:28:20

Melfi is like, you're dating Gloria.

690

: 00:28:24

Does she seem happy?"

691

: 00:28:27

, She is as doctor-patient confidentiality

as it can possibly be, being like,

692

: 00:28:34

"Hey, bro, I'm warning you, red flags.

693

: 00:28:39

This is an, this is a Alabama parade."

694

: 00:28:42

Like, um,

695

: 00:28:45

, you

696

: 00:28:45

know I'm not trying to be

like, "Hey, you hurt women."

697

: 00:28:49

I'm trying to be like, "Hey,

there's a reason she's coming here."

698

: 00:28:55

it's been a morning: Yeah

699

: 00:28:55

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

700

: 00:28:56

And I, I like the way Tony is just

totally oblivious to this about like,

701

: 00:29:00

"What's that gotta do with anything?"

702

: 00:29:01

You know?

703

: 00:29:02

Benjamin: Yeah.

704

: 00:29:02

He's also a guy who's confused contentment

with the rush of a new relationship,

705

: 00:29:08

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, yeah

706

: 00:29:09

, Benjamin: Where he's just like,

"I'm the happiest I've ever been."

707

: 00:29:11

And it's like, and how did you

feel, you know, is that how you felt

708

: 00:29:14

when you started dating the last

girlfriend, and the one before that?

709

: 00:29:18

TheMotionVictor: let's see.

710

: 00:29:19

So then, so then we go

over to Pine Barrens.

711

: 00:29:21

We arrive at Pine Barrens,

712

: 00:29:23

Benjamin: And Valerie's still alive

713

: 00:29:25

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

714

: 00:29:28

Yep.

715

: 00:29:29

I was like,

716

: 00:29:29

it's been a morning: Mm-hmm

717

: 00:29:30

TheMotionVictor: figured, yeah,

dude, they didn't exactly check to

718

: 00:29:33

see if he had a pulse at any point.

719

: 00:29:34

, But yeah, he's still alive.

720

: 00:29:36

And they do something that is just…

721

: 00:29:39

I've seen…

722

: 00:29:39

You- you've seen this

in TV and movies before.

723

: 00:29:43

They have him at gunpoint, and they

try to tell him to dig his own grave,

724

: 00:29:49

Looms in the shadows, a five ton

red-eyed monster ready to crush its prey.

725

: 00:29:54

It's Grave Digger,

726

: 00:29:57

TheMotionVictor: and dude, I just…

727

: 00:30:00

I've seen this in Breaking Bad, I've seen

this in, in Saving Private Ryan, where

728

: 00:30:04

you try to get the, the person you're

about to kill to dig their own grave.

729

: 00:30:09

it's been a morning: Mm-hmm.

730

: 00:30:09

TheMotionVictor: I'm just thinking

like, oh my God, dude, if I…

731

: 00:30:12

Fuck, dude, I have a problem with

authority as it is, but if you're

732

: 00:30:16

trying to tell me to dig my own

fucking grave, no, I'm gonna do

733

: 00:30:19

exactly what this Russian guy did.

734

: 00:30:20

I'm like, "I'm not gonna spend the last

moments of my life doing manual labor.

735

: 00:30:25

Fuck you.

736

: 00:30:25

I'm gonna hit you with this shovel."

737

: 00:30:29

Benjamin: I also did appreciate

because Christopher kind of

738

: 00:30:31

makes a mention of it earlier.

739

: 00:30:35

is wintertime.

740

: 00:30:36

The ground is frozen.

741

: 00:30:38

it's been a morning: Yeah

742

: 00:30:39

Benjamin: Uh, I kind of hoped like if

I, if I was rewriting this episode,

743

: 00:30:45

I would have given another like two

minutes and cutbacks of just like how

744

: 00:30:50

like our, our Russian guy, he does

like two shovelfuls before he starts

745

: 00:30:55

beating the shit out of everybody again.

746

: 00:30:58

it's been a morning: Yeah

747

: 00:30:58

Benjamin: had like, they keep

cutting back and he's shoveling and

748

: 00:31:02

getting nowhere because the ground's

frozen and, , Paulie and Christopher

749

: 00:31:06

are like, why isn't this working?

750

: 00:31:08

It's like, because ground is frozen.

751

: 00:31:12

, But yeah, no, he just clocks

Christopher in the face,

752

: 00:31:17

it's been a morning:

Get some real good, yeah

753

: 00:31:19

Benjamin: running and we get a

very realistic chase, between

754

: 00:31:27

TheMotionVictor: Yeah

755

: 00:31:27

Benjamin: a, a guy who has been

tied up and in a carpet and two

756

: 00:31:31

guys who did not think they were

going to be chasing anyone today.

757

: 00:31:36

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

758

: 00:31:37

Yeah, they, they keep shooting at him

and they keep missing, and I'm like,

759

: 00:31:42

Benjamin: Yeah, they can't hit shit

760

: 00:31:43

TheMotionVictor: this dude is huge."

761

: 00:31:46

how do you keep missing this guy?

762

: 00:31:49

but yeah, they finally, they finally hit

him, and I do see the, the, the red mist,

763

: 00:31:55

and they're like, "Maybe he's stunned."

764

: 00:31:57

I'm like, "Eh, d- did

that look like a headshot?

765

: 00:32:00

I don't know.

766

: 00:32:00

I might wanna rewind and, , take

a closer look," but it does look

767

: 00:32:05

like he shot him in the head.

768

: 00:32:07

Benjamin: But

769

: 00:32:08

it's been a morning: Little bit, yeah

770

: 00:32:09

Benjamin: could have just been a

graze, and so there's gonna be a lot

771

: 00:32:11

of blood, but he's not gonna die.

772

: 00:32:16

TheMotionVictor: Yeah

773

: 00:32:16

Benjamin: Or he could have had half of his

brain blown out, and he could be, like,

774

: 00:32:21

TheMotionVictor: Uff

775

: 00:32:22

Benjamin: in a snowdrift, and they're

just wandering the rest of the episode.

776

: 00:32:25

We don't know.

777

: 00:32:27

TheMotionVictor: Ah, yeah.

778

: 00:32:28

it's been a morning: I mean, we do

at the end of the episode, but yeah

779

: 00:32:31

Benjamin: we got an idea.

780

: 00:32:33

, But they immediately get to where

the guy got shot and lose him.

781

: 00:32:41

And Jafer, how mad did this make you?

782

: 00:32:46

Watching two guys be like, "How can we

f- you know, the blood, blood is gone."

783

: 00:32:51

And it's like, "Follow the

footprints in the snow."

784

: 00:32:57

it's been a morning: Yeah, big ask, Ben.

785

: 00:32:58

Big ask.

786

: 00:33:00

, I mean, they do f- we see them follow

footprints and we see the trail

787

: 00:33:02

end, but if you look at, like, where

they're at, there's, like, tire

788

: 00:33:07

tracks, like, four feet behind them.

789

: 00:33:09

So it's all like, okay, dude took, like,

three steps forward, walked backwards

790

: 00:33:14

in his own steps, and then went on

the other trail thinking that these

791

: 00:33:18

fucks were stupid enough to fall for

that, and that is exactly what happens

792

: 00:33:22

TheMotionVictor: This is true.

793

: 00:33:23

This is true.

794

: 00:33:24

Yeah, because they,

they did say that, uh…

795

: 00:33:26

Well, we'll get to that in a minute.

796

: 00:33:27

We get the backstory of the huge

Russian guy, and yeah, I could a 100%

797

: 00:33:31

seeing him, see him having the said

skills, , to, to, to, to do that, yeah.

798

: 00:33:36

, it's been a morning: Yeah

799

: 00:33:37

TheMotionVictor: back at the Soprano

house, uh, little Tony is watching TV,

800

: 00:33:41

and he's watching a milk commercial that

I was like, "Oh my God, this is w- this

801

: 00:33:45

milk commercial was totally made with AI."

802

: 00:33:48

then I'm like, "No, AI

didn't exist back then.

803

: 00:33:49

it's been a morning: No,

this is a Blur music video.

804

: 00:33:52

TheMotionVictor: What, really?

805

: 00:33:53

it's been a morning: Yeah.

806

: 00:33:54

Benjamin: Oh, okay.

807

: 00:33:56

808

: 00:33:56

No, I recognize.

809

: 00:33:57

Yeah, this is, yeah.

810

: 00:33:58

Yep, he's watching some

MTV from back in the day.

811

: 00:34:01

TheMotionVictor: Damn.

812

: 00:34:02

Benjamin: And

813

: 00:34:03

it's been a morning: well I

814

: 00:34:03

mean, maybe VH1

815

: 00:34:04

TheMotionVictor: had more

than one music video.

816

: 00:34:06

I didn't know that.

817

: 00:34:06

Huh.

818

: 00:34:07

Benjamin: Tony is really

819

: 00:34:08

risking, risking things here by,

820

: 00:34:10

TheMotionVictor: do just wanna say real

quick that I, I just recently found out

821

: 00:34:13

that the guy from Blur, uh, is also the

guy in The Gorillaz, which I had no idea.

822

: 00:34:19

I just recent- learned that recently.

823

: 00:34:21

Fascinating.

824

: 00:34:21

Okay,

825

: 00:34:22

Benjamin: What are you talking about?

826

: 00:34:23

The gorillas are cartoons, Victor.

827

: 00:34:25

TheMotionVictor: This is true.

828

: 00:34:26

Sorry.

829

: 00:34:26

Benjamin: There were no cartoons in Blur

830

: 00:34:28

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

831

: 00:34:30

Okay.

832

: 00:34:31

Thank you for pointing that out.

833

: 00:34:33

All right, now continue please.

834

: 00:34:35

Benjamin: But I know Tony is not a

smart man, but if you've got like

835

: 00:34:45

a, like dinner planned later, just

be like, "Hey, I've got plans.

836

: 00:34:50

I've gotta be, be somewhere

and meet some people."

837

: 00:34:54

You are a mob boss.

838

: 00:34:57

You have the ultimate excuse at all times.

839

: 00:35:02

I need to go do things I can't

tell you about because crimes.

840

: 00:35:09

But instead he is, , at family

dinner not really eating, , claiming

841

: 00:35:15

he had a late lunch, hoping he can

then sneak away and have real dinner

842

: 00:35:21

it's been a morning: Yeah

843

: 00:35:21

TheMotionVictor: he, Carmela

100% knows what's going on.

844

: 00:35:24

She's not dumb.

845

: 00:35:25

She's…

846

: 00:35:26

Actually, you know, I just realized

this, , watching this episode.

847

: 00:35:29

I'm like, "Wow, are almost no likable

characters in this entire show.

848

: 00:35:34

Everyone is a piece of shit."

849

: 00:35:37

Meredith, you never told me your old

grandpa used to be a huge piece of shit

850

: 00:35:42

Benjamin: Yeah

851

: 00:35:42

TheMotionVictor: say Carmela and

Meadow are the only ones that I think

852

: 00:35:46

are, are, are likable so, so far.

853

: 00:35:49

it's been a morning: I'm on the fence

about both, to be perfectly honest

854

: 00:35:54

Benjamin: At least with Meadow, it's just

a teenager doing dumb teenager shit, where

855

: 00:35:59

it's been a morning: True

856

: 00:36:01

Benjamin: I can see her growing out of.

857

: 00:36:03

Um,

858

: 00:36:04

it's been a morning: Yeah

859

: 00:36:05

Benjamin: does have the, like, "I

pull out the AK when I hear a noise."

860

: 00:36:10

TheMotionVictor: I would say the,

the only two likable characters,

861

: 00:36:12

and one of them p- has an AK in the

pantry and the other one, uh, does

862

: 00:36:16

some casual stalking in this episode.

863

: 00:36:18

But yeah, we'll get to that.

864

: 00:36:21

it's been a morning: We cut back to Paulie

and Chris, and we see that they are lost,

865

: 00:36:25

and I don't mean Wednesdays at 8:00 on ABC

866

: 00:36:28

Benjamin: Oh

867

: 00:36:29

TheMotionVictor: These guys

are being the worst goons ever.

868

: 00:36:32

Uh,

869

: 00:36:33

it's been a morning: is

fucking embarrassing.

870

: 00:36:35

Benjamin: This is

871

: 00:36:35

it's been a morning: full

on drop the coach from

872

: 00:36:37

Letterkenny fucking embarrassing

873

: 00:36:40

Fucking embarrassing.

874

: 00:36:41

It's fucking embarrassing.

875

: 00:36:43

Fucking embarrassing.

876

: 00:36:45

Benjamin: Yeah, they

are lost in the woods.

877

: 00:36:46

This is where Paulie drops the, "I had

four years in the Army," where it's just

878

: 00:36:52

like, yeah, I don't know.

879

: 00:36:55

He's got silver in his hair.

880

: 00:36:57

I'm thinking he's, like, 50s, his

four years in the Army were years ago.

881

: 00:37:06

You forget shit, man.

882

: 00:37:08

Uh,

883

: 00:37:09

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

884

: 00:37:10

Benjamin: know, I don't remember any of,

like, my middle school baseball rotations.

885

: 00:37:16

it's been a morning: Like, I

mean, I used to be able to play 13

886

: 00:37:20

different instruments in band, and

I struggle with a two or three now.

887

: 00:37:24

You know, it's a muscle.

888

: 00:37:25

If you don't exercise it, you lose it.

889

: 00:37:27

Benjamin: Yeah

890

: 00:37:29

TheMotionVictor: guy, uh,

he only did four years.

891

: 00:37:32

That means he was maybe, m- maybe

they gave him some stripes as a, as

892

: 00:37:36

a going away present when he got out.

893

: 00:37:38

But yeah, uh, he…

894

: 00:37:39

this dude was 100% a

sham shield specialist.

895

: 00:37:42

Like, he…

896

: 00:37:43

especially later as the way, later

in the episode when he tries to

897

: 00:37:47

blame everything on Chris, I'm

like, "Oh, I 100% know what kind of

898

: 00:37:50

fucking dude you were in the Army."

899

: 00:37:53

So yeah, you…

900

: 00:37:55

Yeah, and, and, and he's like, "Yeah."

901

: 00:37:57

I'm like, "Everyone I know failed

land navigation," and he doesn't

902

: 00:38:01

even have a map and a compass.

903

: 00:38:03

I'm like, "Okay, yep,

they're, they're lost."

904

: 00:38:05

it's been a morning: Yep

905

: 00:38:06

Benjamin: I will say, I'm, I'm, I

wanted to ask you guys, uh, and now

906

: 00:38:09

seems like a good time to bring it up.

907

: 00:38:11

Have you guys ever been lost in the woods?

908

: 00:38:14

Like legit lost

909

: 00:38:16

TheMotionVictor: Y- yeah, and only

through sheer luck did I, am I not

910

: 00:38:19

still lost to this day every time

911

: 00:38:24

it's been a morning: I have

never felt lost in the woods.

912

: 00:38:26

TheMotionVictor: Of course not.

913

: 00:38:27

it's been a morning: I I

have been deep in the woods.

914

: 00:38:30

I have-- I mean, I was a camp

counselor for a summer going hiking.

915

: 00:38:35

I spent a lot of time in the

woods as a kid with my dad.

916

: 00:38:39

Uh, but also, like, that is, like, a deep

skill set that was ingrained in me from

917

: 00:38:45

very young childhood was, "This is how

you don't get lost in the fucking woods."

918

: 00:38:49

So I am-- I'm not a good

person to ask that question to

919

: 00:38:54

Benjamin: I have been lost

in the woods one time.

920

: 00:38:58

, So I was in a game of paintball.

921

: 00:39:01

We were playing in the woods

behind my friend's grandma's farm.

922

: 00:39:06

And so we are deep in the woods.

923

: 00:39:09

, We end up, like, running paintball

battle, retreating deeper and deeper into

924

: 00:39:13

the woods, and then it starts snowing.

925

: 00:39:16

And it snowed a lot.

926

: 00:39:18

it's been a morning: Hmm.

927

: 00:39:19

Benjamin: And

928

: 00:39:19

it's been a morning: That makes it tough

929

: 00:39:20

Benjamin: kind of stops shooting at each

other, and we kind of realize we've been

930

: 00:39:23

running for a while, and no one was,

like, attention to what was going on.

931

: 00:39:30

And we have no, like-- like, we are, you

know, it's paintball, like, the range

932

: 00:39:34

isn't great, but we get like, "Hey,

have any idea back where our cars are?"

933

: 00:39:40

"We hoped you did."

934

: 00:39:43

"Shit."

935

: 00:39:45

"Do you guys just wanna call it?"

936

: 00:39:48

"Okay."

937

: 00:39:49

And then me and my

friends, , did our best.

938

: 00:39:52

We ended up several miles off course.

939

: 00:39:56

, But fortunately, we were able

to find another field and from

940

: 00:40:01

there figure out where we were.

941

: 00:40:03

But it was, , absolutely one of

those, oh, damn, all of the markers

942

: 00:40:11

and, , points of reference are

now under half an inch of snow.

943

: 00:40:16

it's been a morning:

Yeah, that, that's tough

944

: 00:40:18

Benjamin: also dumped snow on us, so there

were no footprints for us to follow back.

945

: 00:40:24

and so I'm absolutely like one

of those like, oh, man, if this

946

: 00:40:27

wasn't like farm country where you

know, hey, I know that this woods

947

: 00:40:32

it's been a morning: It could be miles.

948

: 00:40:34

Benjamin: and

949

: 00:40:34

it's been a morning: Yeah

950

: 00:40:34

Benjamin: direction, eventually

I'm hitting a, a, a road.

951

: 00:40:38

I could absolutely see the

like, "And Ben and his friends

952

: 00:40:41

were never heard from again."

953

: 00:40:45

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

954

: 00:40:45

it's been a morning: Yeah, that's fair

955

: 00:40:47

Benjamin: 13th century Germany,

we were just eaten by wolves.

956

: 00:40:52

TheMotionVictor: paintball in that kind

of weather too, and then the paintballs

957

: 00:40:55

start freezing and then ow, ouch.

958

: 00:40:57

Yeah.

959

: 00:40:58

Uh, so Tony goes to meet with the

Russian mob boss, , and he's just

960

: 00:41:03

got this massive, I'm guessing a

desert eagle sitting on the table.

961

: 00:41:08

huge.

962

: 00:41:13

Benjamin: Yep,

963

: 00:41:13

it's been a morning: vibes

964

: 00:41:14

TheMotionVictor: and his, … He

introduces him to, to his daughter,

965

: 00:41:18

and she leaves, and he's like, "Oh,

yeah, she's gonna go to Harvard maybe."

966

: 00:41:23

, I'm guessing this guy is

their money launderer.

967

: 00:41:26

Benjamin: That's what it seems like

968

: 00:41:28

it's been a morning: Yeah

969

: 00:41:28

TheMotionVictor: And we learn the

tragic backstory of the huge Russian

970

: 00:41:31

guy, They were both in the military

together, and he's crying about it.

971

: 00:41:37

The, Russian mob boss, , sheds a few

tears talking about his best friend

972

: 00:41:41

here, how he's, he is become an

alcoholic, and how he saved his life,

973

: 00:41:48

Benjamin: In Chechnya,

974

: 00:41:49

TheMotionVictor: Chechnya,

975

: 00:41:50

it's been a morning: Mm-hmm

976

: 00:41:51

Benjamin: shit happened.

977

: 00:41:53

Uh, if you

978

: 00:41:54

it's been a morning: Yes

979

: 00:41:55

Benjamin: want to be like, "Hey, here's

another, like, Bosnia I didn't know

980

: 00:42:01

about," read about Russia and Chechnya.

981

: 00:42:04

It's

982

: 00:42:06

Uh, it's

983

: 00:42:08

it's been a morning: Yeah.

984

: 00:42:09

Duh.

985

: 00:42:10

Man, like, are you follow-- How

much, how closely are you following

986

: 00:42:13

the Ukraine war right now?

987

: 00:42:16

Benjamin: Uh, on and

988

: 00:42:18

it's been a morning: Have you s- have

you seen the stuff about the, uh, pushes

989

: 00:42:22

that Ukraine has made to retake Chechnya?

990

: 00:42:25

Benjamin: No

991

: 00:42:27

it's been a morning: Oh,

dude, shit's wild over there.

992

: 00:42:29

Benjamin: Or do you mean Crimea?

993

: 00:42:31

it's been a morning: or Crimea.

994

: 00:42:31

Crimea, not Chechnya, sorry.

995

: 00:42:33

Wrong Russian annexation, my B.

996

: 00:42:37

That was, Crimea was about 10 years after

997

: 00:42:42

TheMotionVictor: Yeah

998

: 00:42:43

it's been a morning:

messing up these C names.

999

: 00:42:44

It's almost like I think

they're Czechoslovakians.

: 1000

00:42:46,921 --> 00:42:47,865

Anyways

: 1001

00:42:48,991 --> 00:42:49,351

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1002

00:42:50,151 --> 00:42:50,751

Um,

: 1003

00:42:50,885 --> 00:42:52,008

it's been a morning:

That's a bit listener.

: 1004

00:42:52,009 --> 00:42:55,386

They do that in the episode all the

time 'cause the dumb, the dumb goons

: 1005

00:42:55,549 --> 00:42:58,829

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, they, they,

Tony calls Paulie and tells him that,

: 1006

00:42:58,829 --> 00:43:02,309

"Hey, you need to get, take care of

this guy, he's, , he was a Special

: 1007

00:43:02,309 --> 00:43:05,749

Forces dude who killed 16 Chechnyans."

: 1008

00:43:05,749 --> 00:43:07,019

And Paulie's like, "Get

the fuck out of here."

: 1009

00:43:07,019 --> 00:43:08,999

And then I'm reminded of this,

: 1010

00:43:09,257 --> 00:43:09,657

it's been a morning: This is

: 1011

00:43:09,909 --> 00:43:12,089

TheMotionVictor: episode, the

shitty cellphone reception.

: 1012

00:43:12,549 --> 00:43:16,239

It's, these, these guys are

100% using Cingular Wireless.

: 1013

00:43:16,699 --> 00:43:23,779

And it, it keeps out, and God,

dude, Paulie, he's just like,

: 1014

00:43:24,038 --> 00:43:24,935

it's been a morning: This is d-

: 1015

00:43:24,949 --> 00:43:25,369

TheMotionVictor: this guy.

: 1016

00:43:25,379 --> 00:43:28,269

He, he killed 16 Czechoslovakians.

: 1017

00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:28,684

Benjamin: He was an

: 1018

00:43:28,726 --> 00:43:30,721

it's been a morning: This

is the best decorator.

: 1019

00:43:30,826 --> 00:43:32,125

Yeah, they say he was…

: 1020

00:43:32,666 --> 00:43:36,278

Tony tells him he was attached

to the Department of the Interior

: 1021

00:43:36,613 --> 00:43:38,644

in Russia, which means the KGB.

: 1022

00:43:38,765 --> 00:43:39,260

Benjamin: Yeah

: 1023

00:43:40,237 --> 00:43:43,554

it's been a morning: he, Polly hears

interior decorator and then Chris

: 1024

00:43:43,559 --> 00:43:45,218

goes, "His place looked like shit."

: 1025

00:43:48,666 --> 00:43:53,948

The best joke in this episode.

: 1026

00:43:55,237 --> 00:43:57,357

, TheMotionVictor: So back, back

at, , Meadows College, she gets

: 1027

00:43:57,357 --> 00:43:58,897

a call from her crappy boyfriend.

: 1028

00:43:59,337 --> 00:44:00,197

, She's still sick

: 1029

00:44:00,219 --> 00:44:01,600

it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1030

00:44:01,647 --> 00:44:04,157

TheMotionVictor: he has to get his

mother's car inspected, and this is

: 1031

00:44:04,157 --> 00:44:06,067

the best excuse he could come up with?

: 1032

00:44:06,087 --> 00:44:06,937

My God, dude.

: 1033

00:44:07,073 --> 00:44:08,168

Benjamin: Very stupid

: 1034

00:44:08,287 --> 00:44:08,737

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1035

00:44:09,371 --> 00:44:11,709

it's been a morning: And which

they point out by reviewing his

: 1036

00:44:11,709 --> 00:44:13,816

Scrabble choices for us again

: 1037

00:44:14,027 --> 00:44:14,857

TheMotionVictor: and the, yeah.

: 1038

00:44:16,157 --> 00:44:18,697

, Paulie and Chris, , it's,

it's now nighttime,

: 1039

00:44:18,797 --> 00:44:19,074

, it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1040

00:44:19,096 --> 00:44:20,626

TheMotionVictor: over in the Pine Barrens,

: 1041

00:44:21,082 --> 00:44:22,557

Benjamin: Paulie has lost a shoe,

: 1042

00:44:22,966 --> 00:44:23,436

TheMotionVictor: Yes.

: 1043

00:44:23,661 --> 00:44:25,138

it's been a morning: Yes

: 1044

00:44:25,242 --> 00:44:27,707

Benjamin: go back for

his shoe, I don't know.

: 1045

00:44:29,837 --> 00:44:31,571

it's been a morning: Yeah, you

go back for your shoe, man.

: 1046

00:44:31,571 --> 00:44:32,005

That's--

: 1047

00:44:32,186 --> 00:44:32,576

TheMotionVictor: yeah

: 1048

00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:34,890

it's been a morning: In this weather,

you don't fuck around with that

: 1049

00:44:35,385 --> 00:44:37,142

Benjamin: really chasing this guy.

: 1050

00:44:37,165 --> 00:44:39,656

They're more just wandering

through the woods.

: 1051

00:44:40,269 --> 00:44:40,755

it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1052

00:44:41,199 --> 00:44:43,348

Benjamin: It's one thing if

you're like, "I can see him.

: 1053

00:44:43,349 --> 00:44:44,726

I'm not breaking my stride.

: 1054

00:44:44,726 --> 00:44:46,303

I lost my, my shoe."

: 1055

00:44:46,667 --> 00:44:49,688

It's another thing if it's just,

"We're aimlessly wandering.

: 1056

00:44:50,085 --> 00:44:51,036

I could just go back."

: 1057

00:44:51,329 --> 00:44:51,803

Um

: 1058

00:44:52,078 --> 00:44:52,552

it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1059

00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:53,830

TheMotionVictor: Mm.

: 1060

00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,490

they find a van in the middle

of the woods, a plumbing van.

: 1061

00:44:58,125 --> 00:44:58,527

it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1062

00:44:58,671 --> 00:44:59,176

Benjamin: the river

: 1063

00:44:59,936 --> 00:45:02,316

Well, you'll have plenty of time

to live in a van down by the

: 1064

00:45:02,316 --> 00:45:07,849

river when you're living in a van

: 1065

00:45:08,225 --> 00:45:10,185

TheMotionVictor: I'm wondering

if this was, , this van…

: 1066

00:45:11,185 --> 00:45:13,305

I'm wondering if, if we've

seen this van before.

: 1067

00:45:13,305 --> 00:45:17,705

Well, not us has seen this van, but if

The Sopranos have seen this van before.

: 1068

00:45:18,435 --> 00:45:20,215

, Anyway, , they

: 1069

00:45:22,985 --> 00:45:24,335

see back at

: 1070

00:45:24,458 --> 00:45:24,947

Benjamin: I, I do

: 1071

00:45:24,947 --> 00:45:25,965

like Christopher here.

: 1072

00:45:25,965 --> 00:45:28,752

He's like, "Man, like he's out there.

: 1073

00:45:28,821 --> 00:45:31,326

He's doing Die Hard shit."

: 1074

00:45:34,777 --> 00:45:35,557

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

: 1075

00:45:35,557 --> 00:45:38,547

Uh, back at the Soprano house,

they're having dinner again.

: 1076

00:45:38,567 --> 00:45:40,707

AJ tells another dumb joke at dinner.

: 1077

00:45:40,967 --> 00:45:43,157

I'm seeing that that's

his, his, his thing.

: 1078

00:45:43,867 --> 00:45:46,777

, This is where she notices that

Tony's not eating, eating much, and,

: 1079

00:45:46,947 --> 00:45:48,737

, Carmela, Carmela knows what's up.

: 1080

00:45:49,797 --> 00:45:52,367

meanwhile, we see Tony's

mistress making steaks.

: 1081

00:45:53,017 --> 00:45:56,357

, While she's making steaks, Paulie

and Chris are eating ketchup packets

: 1082

00:45:56,367 --> 00:45:58,127

that they found in the s- in the van.

: 1083

00:45:58,322 --> 00:46:00,260

Benjamin: And relish packets.

: 1084

00:46:00,577 --> 00:46:00,797

TheMotionVictor: yeah,

: 1085

00:46:00,940 --> 00:46:01,140

it's been a morning: Hum.

: 1086

00:46:01,297 --> 00:46:02,707

TheMotionVictor: "Ooh, yeah,

pass me some of that relish."

: 1087

00:46:02,757 --> 00:46:04,017

Oh, God, dude, that's…

: 1088

00:46:04,077 --> 00:46:04,457

Oof.

: 1089

00:46:05,407 --> 00:46:08,767

man, when you're so, when you're

so fucking hungry that ketchup

: 1090

00:46:08,767 --> 00:46:10,217

packets sound appetizing.

: 1091

00:46:10,267 --> 00:46:11,887

Oh, God, that's, that's rough.

: 1092

00:46:12,607 --> 00:46:13,777

, They call Tony again.

: 1093

00:46:13,777 --> 00:46:14,367

Why?

: 1094

00:46:14,737 --> 00:46:18,197

I'm like, what the hell could Tony

possibly do for you in this situation?

: 1095

00:46:18,445 --> 00:46:20,504

Benjamin: Yeah, you are lost in the woods.

: 1096

00:46:20,839 --> 00:46:22,015

How can he help?

: 1097

00:46:22,707 --> 00:46:23,107

TheMotionVictor: Yeah

: 1098

00:46:23,533 --> 00:46:27,932

Benjamin: This isn't like, , you know,

this isn't, , I have Find My Friend,

: 1099

00:46:27,985 --> 00:46:30,323

you know, on my iPhone or something.

: 1100

00:46:32,407 --> 00:46:36,137

, TheMotionVictor: Back at the college,

Meadow asked to borrow her friend's car.

: 1101

00:46:36,547 --> 00:46:37,767

I, I th- I, I…

: 1102

00:46:37,897 --> 00:46:42,367

Meadow 100% inherited the, , the

sense, , the, the bullshit

: 1103

00:46:42,367 --> 00:46:43,747

sense that her mother has.

: 1104

00:46:43,877 --> 00:46:44,317

She's

: 1105

00:46:44,454 --> 00:46:46,230

it's been a morning: Mm-hmm

: 1106

00:46:46,287 --> 00:46:46,547

TheMotionVictor: up.

: 1107

00:46:49,444 --> 00:46:54,110

Benjamin: And here then back at

the, the Soprano house, , disaster

: 1108

00:46:54,112 --> 00:46:57,561

strikes when Carmela's parents show up

: 1109

00:46:58,828 --> 00:47:00,956

reveal that her dad has glaucoma.

: 1110

00:47:02,978 --> 00:47:06,902

and, , this is where, , Janice

immediately shows back up and like,

: 1111

00:47:07,012 --> 00:47:08,422

"I heard somebody say glaucoma.

: 1112

00:47:08,429 --> 00:47:10,152

I've got weed."

: 1113

00:47:13,959 --> 00:47:20,634

, No, but, uh, now Tony isn't able to leave

because we've got family stuff going on.

: 1114

00:47:20,991 --> 00:47:23,371

But he doesn't call Gloria.

: 1115

00:47:24,425 --> 00:47:24,745

TheMotionVictor: Угу

: 1116

00:47:25,187 --> 00:47:27,779

Benjamin: So he makes, you know…

: 1117

00:47:28,166 --> 00:47:32,340

He, he made the mistake of staying and

then makes the mistake of not calling.

: 1118

00:47:34,212 --> 00:47:34,580

But,

: 1119

00:47:34,939 --> 00:47:35,219

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, a-

: 1120

00:47:35,458 --> 00:47:38,039

Benjamin: know, if everybody

wants you, why isn't Tony

: 1121

00:47:38,039 --> 00:47:42,331

Soprano calling Gloria, Gloria?

: 1122

00:47:42,636 --> 00:47:43,156

it's been a morning: Oh yeah.

: 1123

00:47:44,556 --> 00:47:45,776

Ba da ba ba ba ba

: 1124

00:47:46,234 --> 00:47:46,680

Benjamin: Sorry,

: 1125

00:47:46,736 --> 00:47:46,996

it's been a morning: da ba

: 1126

00:47:47,056 --> 00:47:47,446

ba ba ba

: 1127

00:47:47,580 --> 00:47:48,145

Benjamin: say, Victor?

: 1128

00:47:49,411 --> 00:47:51,971

, TheMotionVictor: Oh, the, I'm just gonna

circle back to what you said earlier about

: 1129

00:47:51,971 --> 00:47:54,601

how being the fucking mob boss, he…

: 1130

00:47:55,771 --> 00:47:58,411

For someone who lies so much,

he kinda sucks at lying.

: 1131

00:47:59,591 --> 00:48:02,651

He could just say, "I

have to go do mob stuff."

: 1132

00:48:03,291 --> 00:48:04,901

Ugh, damn it, Tony.

: 1133

00:48:06,001 --> 00:48:09,361

, Tony shows up late to his mistress's

place for dinner, three hours

: 1134

00:48:09,402 --> 00:48:10,263

Benjamin: Three hours late.

: 1135

00:48:10,430 --> 00:48:10,988

Damn

: 1136

00:48:11,191 --> 00:48:14,631

TheMotionVictor: the dinner's ruined,

and God, this whole scene just gave

: 1137

00:48:14,631 --> 00:48:18,601

me anxiety about how, how pissed she

is, and he's like, "Ah," trying to

: 1138

00:48:18,601 --> 00:48:21,011

make it better, and he's like, uh…

: 1139

00:48:22,081 --> 00:48:22,961

Ugh, God, yeah.

: 1140

00:48:23,841 --> 00:48:26,971

Uh, meanwhile, Chris is

trying to build a fire.

: 1141

00:48:28,383 --> 00:48:33,893

Benjamin: Which he has some

idea of you rub sticks, but

: 1142

00:48:33,894 --> 00:48:35,424

he- that is not how you do it.

: 1143

00:48:36,133 --> 00:48:37,971

Uh, not even close.

: 1144

00:48:38,196 --> 00:48:39,969

, He does not have any kindling.

: 1145

00:48:40,202 --> 00:48:43,515

He just has a pile of sticks and

is rubbing two of them together

: 1146

00:48:47,202 --> 00:48:47,552

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1147

00:48:48,052 --> 00:48:51,002

I should go back and count the amount,

the amount of times Paulie called

: 1148

00:48:51,012 --> 00:48:53,582

Tony, 'cause he calls him again, and

: 1149

00:48:53,720 --> 00:48:55,467

Benjamin: gotta be like seven times

: 1150

00:48:56,882 --> 00:48:58,482

TheMotionVictor: And Tony's

like, "Okay, fine, I'll…"

: 1151

00:48:58,512 --> 00:48:59,042

He's, he…

: 1152

00:48:59,872 --> 00:49:01,122

like, "You gotta come rescue us."

: 1153

00:49:01,692 --> 00:49:05,842

So Tony starts putting his

shoes back on, and Gloria is…

: 1154

00:49:07,872 --> 00:49:08,822

She's had enough.

: 1155

00:49:09,142 --> 00:49:12,152

She's so pissed, she throws

a fucking steak at his head.

: 1156

00:49:12,907 --> 00:49:14,284

Benjamin: Yep

: 1157

00:49:14,442 --> 00:49:17,902

TheMotionVictor: I have, you know, I have

done some dumb thing- I have fucked up.

: 1158

00:49:18,832 --> 00:49:22,982

I have fucked up before in my life,

but I have never had a steak thrown

: 1159

00:49:22,982 --> 00:49:27,512

at me, so it's like, hey, at least

I've never, fucked up that bad.

: 1160

00:49:28,745 --> 00:49:32,692

Benjamin: And Gloria then proceeds

to like smash up her own house,

: 1161

00:49:32,975 --> 00:49:33,197

kind

: 1162

00:49:33,197 --> 00:49:36,041

of giving us an idea

of how volatile she is.

: 1163

00:49:36,613 --> 00:49:37,406

it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1164

00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,477

Benjamin: Tony's contentment is gone

: 1165

00:49:40,630 --> 00:49:44,750

TheMotionVictor: just, , maybe this is

just, indicative of my taste, but I am

: 1166

00:49:45,500 --> 00:49:48,470

just like, like, "Eh, she's not volatile.

: 1167

00:49:48,470 --> 00:49:49,730

She's just from New Jersey."

: 1168

00:49:51,123 --> 00:49:51,610

Benjamin: Victor?

: 1169

00:49:51,790 --> 00:49:52,500

TheMotionVictor: That's normal.

: 1170

00:49:52,838 --> 00:49:53,910

Benjamin: No, it's not

: 1171

00:49:57,890 --> 00:49:58,230

TheMotionVictor: Uh,

: 1172

00:49:58,450 --> 00:49:58,905

Benjamin: Victor.

: 1173

00:49:58,945 --> 00:49:59,456

Bad

: 1174

00:49:59,590 --> 00:50:00,670

TheMotionVictor: Jersey girls before.

: 1175

00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:01,940

It's, this, this tracks.

: 1176

00:50:02,210 --> 00:50:05,660

Sorry, not trying to be stereotypical

here, but, you know, stereotypes

: 1177

00:50:05,728 --> 00:50:06,677

it's been a morning: stereotyping.

: 1178

00:50:06,766 --> 00:50:07,444

Yeah

: 1179

00:50:07,470 --> 00:50:08,680

TheMotionVictor: exist for a reason, dude.

: 1180

00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:08,940

I'm just

: 1181

00:50:09,077 --> 00:50:11,050

Benjamin: Victor, don't make

me get the, the spray bottle.

: 1182

00:50:11,103 --> 00:50:11,406

No.

: 1183

00:50:11,498 --> 00:50:12,373

Tss, tss, tss

: 1184

00:50:15,180 --> 00:50:15,910

TheMotionVictor: Man, I need…

: 1185

00:50:15,950 --> 00:50:18,080

, dude, yeah, I need you to

follow me around with that spray

: 1186

00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:19,230

bottle whenever I do something

: 1187

00:50:19,363 --> 00:50:22,769

Benjamin: Yeah, when you go on a first

date like, "Have you ever smashed a vase?"

: 1188

00:50:22,935 --> 00:50:23,357

"Yes."

: 1189

00:50:23,395 --> 00:50:25,044

"All right, Victor, we're leaving."

: 1190

00:50:28,045 --> 00:50:29,032

it's been a morning: You seem lovely.

: 1191

00:50:29,172 --> 00:50:30,640

Never talk to us again.

: 1192

00:50:30,740 --> 00:50:33,690

TheMotionVictor: man, if I, if I

had Elon Musk money, I would 100%

: 1193

00:50:33,710 --> 00:50:35,400

hire you as my life coach, Ben.

: 1194

00:50:35,420 --> 00:50:35,670

Just

: 1195

00:50:35,785 --> 00:50:38,233

Benjamin: Never talk

to me or my son again.

: 1196

00:50:40,970 --> 00:50:41,320

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1197

00:50:42,030 --> 00:50:45,738

, Benjamin: We then, , have Meadow

doing her stakeout of Jackie's house.

: 1198

00:50:45,928 --> 00:50:46,841

They see the lights go

: 1199

00:50:46,892 --> 00:50:47,946

it's been a morning: Yep

: 1200

00:50:47,957 --> 00:50:48,867

TheMotionVictor: guy's name, Jackie?

: 1201

00:50:48,908 --> 00:50:49,438

Benjamin: yes.

: 1202

00:50:49,717 --> 00:50:49,947

TheMotionVictor: Okay

: 1203

00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:53,957

Benjamin: And we get the, , a very

special kind of girl, the girl who

: 1204

00:50:53,959 --> 00:50:59,513

finds out she's the side piece and

decides to take it out on other girl.

: 1205

00:51:00,011 --> 00:51:00,904

, it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1206

00:51:01,301 --> 00:51:03,032

Benjamin: which these people do exist.

: 1207

00:51:03,065 --> 00:51:06,606

, But, , she is mad at being found out.

: 1208

00:51:06,701 --> 00:51:10,525

She's mad you dare think I'm a whore.

: 1209

00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:15,678

, And, , yeah, you never-- he never will

call you again 'cause he's with me now.

: 1210

00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:19,663

And it's like, girl, have

some self-respect, please.

: 1211

00:51:19,761 --> 00:51:20,071

TheMotionVictor: Right?

: 1212

00:51:21,766 --> 00:51:21,949

Benjamin: did

: 1213

00:51:21,950 --> 00:51:22,753

you, you know

: 1214

00:51:22,909 --> 00:51:24,229

TheMotionVictor: not even

that much of a catch.

: 1215

00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:25,199

He's really dumb.

: 1216

00:51:26,007 --> 00:51:27,014

Benjamin: really dumb

: 1217

00:51:27,659 --> 00:51:29,479

TheMotionVictor: and then, and

then this is where he says,

: 1218

00:51:29,479 --> 00:51:30,409

"Do you realize who that is?

: 1219

00:51:30,409 --> 00:51:32,079

That's Tony daughter."

: 1220

00:51:32,309 --> 00:51:33,939

And I'm like, "Motherfucker, you

: 1221

00:51:33,979 --> 00:51:35,235

Benjamin: you realize

: 1222

00:51:36,119 --> 00:51:39,009

TheMotionVictor: You don't cheat on

the mob boss's daughter, you dumbass.

: 1223

00:51:39,069 --> 00:51:39,239

God."

: 1224

00:51:41,660 --> 00:51:47,595

Benjamin: Yeah, this is the sort of

thing where it's just like Jackie is,

: 1225

00:51:47,965 --> 00:51:50,809

Jackie is going to end up a river.

: 1226

00:51:51,396 --> 00:51:54,797

Uh, it's just a matter

of who puts him there

: 1227

00:51:55,397 --> 00:51:55,667

TheMotionVictor: Right.

: 1228

00:51:57,457 --> 00:51:58,057

Oh.

: 1229

00:51:58,787 --> 00:52:03,347

If he's lucky, then Paulie and Chris will

take care of him and he's got a chance.

: 1230

00:52:07,073 --> 00:52:07,573

And, uh

: 1231

00:52:08,035 --> 00:52:12,437

Benjamin: Tony arrives

at Junior's, in chemo

: 1232

00:52:13,269 --> 00:52:13,959

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, that's interesting.

: 1233

00:52:13,959 --> 00:52:17,309

I was 100% sure that, that Junior

was dead by this point, but

: 1234

00:52:17,378 --> 00:52:18,531

Benjamin: Nope, he's still kicking.

: 1235

00:52:19,499 --> 00:52:22,415

they seem to have a

better relationship now.

: 1236

00:52:23,291 --> 00:52:27,185

I mean, hard to be worse than,

"I tried to kill you," but, um

: 1237

00:52:29,045 --> 00:52:31,175

TheMotionVictor: I mean, I guess

if you're dying anyway, then, you

: 1238

00:52:31,175 --> 00:52:32,855

know, kinda harmless at that point,

: 1239

00:52:33,278 --> 00:52:33,489

Benjamin: I don't know.

: 1240

00:52:33,489 --> 00:52:37,995

If I'm dying, I, I f- I feel like

I'd be pr- I'm gonna be really

: 1241

00:52:38,016 --> 00:52:39,613

petty when I know I'm dying

: 1242

00:52:42,070 --> 00:52:43,450

it's been a morning: When you

know you're dying, that's when

: 1243

00:52:43,451 --> 00:52:44,859

the pettiness is gonna start, Ben?

: 1244

00:52:46,108 --> 00:52:48,113

Benjamin: It's surprising, isn't it?

: 1245

00:52:50,373 --> 00:52:53,055

it's been a morning: Y- yes, but

not for the reasons you think

: 1246

00:52:56,191 --> 00:52:57,871

Benjamin: Uh

: 1247

00:52:58,009 --> 00:52:59,489

TheMotionVictor: haven't

even seen my final form.

: 1248

00:52:59,614 --> 00:53:00,112

Benjamin: Yeah, no,

: 1249

00:53:00,112 --> 00:53:00,710

I'm

: 1250

00:53:00,879 --> 00:53:02,229

TheMotionVictor: don't

know how petty I can get."

: 1251

00:53:03,137 --> 00:53:05,731

Benjamin: I'm about to be the

perfect sell of, of petty.

: 1252

00:53:06,014 --> 00:53:09,640

Uh, shows up full hunter,

: 1253

00:53:10,231 --> 00:53:10,625

it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1254

00:53:11,155 --> 00:53:13,305

TheMotionVictor: He is

the only one prepared,

: 1255

00:53:13,568 --> 00:53:14,359

Benjamin: I know

: 1256

00:53:14,725 --> 00:53:14,925

TheMotionVictor: at.

: 1257

00:53:16,075 --> 00:53:16,595

I think

: 1258

00:53:16,916 --> 00:53:20,656

Benjamin: And I'm totally on Bobby's

side where he's just like, "Fuck you."

: 1259

00:53:21,921 --> 00:53:23,521

TheMotionVictor: Yeah, he called

me in the middle of the night.

: 1260

00:53:23,641 --> 00:53:26,921

Uh, yeah, we find out it's like 3:00

or 4:00 in the morning at this point.

: 1261

00:53:27,751 --> 00:53:32,291

, And yeah, he's, he- Bobby is the only

one who understands the assignment.

: 1262

00:53:32,563 --> 00:53:33,402

Benjamin: I'm the only one with

: 1263

00:53:33,457 --> 00:53:34,934

it's been a morning: Yes

: 1264

00:53:35,432 --> 00:53:35,666

Benjamin: Uh,

: 1265

00:53:37,431 --> 00:53:37,861

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1266

00:53:39,251 --> 00:53:40,286

, it's been a morning:

Like, it's fucking winter.

: 1267

00:53:40,703 --> 00:53:44,568

It's like, bundle the fuck up, guys.

: 1268

00:53:45,019 --> 00:53:45,839

TheMotionVictor: Um,

: 1269

00:53:45,957 --> 00:53:50,205

Benjamin: Christopher can't go 24 hours

without food, and so he's just like, "I'm

: 1270

00:53:50,207 --> 00:53:52,738

gonna eat random berries in the woods."

: 1271

00:53:52,986 --> 00:53:53,121

And

: 1272

00:53:53,245 --> 00:53:54,405

TheMotionVictor: that

was so fucking funny.

: 1273

00:53:54,805 --> 00:53:55,105

He's like,

: 1274

00:53:55,216 --> 00:53:55,742

Benjamin: Paulie's like,

: 1275

00:53:55,825 --> 00:53:56,045

TheMotionVictor: back

: 1276

00:53:56,145 --> 00:53:56,815

Benjamin: "It's poison."

: 1277

00:54:01,285 --> 00:54:01,735

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1278

00:54:02,325 --> 00:54:04,545

, Meadow goes to the

hospital on her way home.

: 1279

00:54:04,905 --> 00:54:05,455

, She's…

: 1280

00:54:06,445 --> 00:54:07,875

the nurse gives her an IV.

: 1281

00:54:07,895 --> 00:54:11,835

Her friend, I think this is the

same friend from the pilot, the

: 1282

00:54:11,845 --> 00:54:14,615

blonde girl shows up, and they

: 1283

00:54:14,764 --> 00:54:16,335

it's been a morning:

yeah, that feels right

: 1284

00:54:16,625 --> 00:54:17,055

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1285

00:54:17,625 --> 00:54:21,025

Uh, they talk about how much of a

piece of shit her dumb boyfriend is.

: 1286

00:54:21,645 --> 00:54:23,165

, Let's see

: 1287

00:54:23,534 --> 00:54:26,174

Benjamin: Oh, we do get a bit

where, , Christopher is like,

: 1288

00:54:26,497 --> 00:54:32,352

"Hey, , Paulie, I heard you talking

to Tony saying this is my fault.

: 1289

00:54:33,289 --> 00:54:36,252

not going to sleep because I

don't trust you not to kill me

: 1290

00:54:37,860 --> 00:54:38,255

it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1291

00:54:38,653 --> 00:54:38,973

TheMotionVictor: Oof!

: 1292

00:54:41,363 --> 00:54:44,683

, Tony and Bobby show up there

on the, the rescue mission.

: 1293

00:54:45,543 --> 00:54:47,133

, Kind of blurry at what

happens at this point.

: 1294

00:54:47,133 --> 00:54:47,193

It,

: 1295

00:54:47,290 --> 00:54:52,091

Benjamin: So they get there

and they're, "Hey, Paulie's car

: 1296

00:54:52,094 --> 00:54:54,138

should be here, but it's not."

: 1297

00:54:54,511 --> 00:54:55,651

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1298

00:54:56,064 --> 00:54:57,579

Benjamin: Tony's like, "All

right, well, what do we do now?"

: 1299

00:54:57,579 --> 00:55:00,936

And Paul- and Bobby's just like, "Well,

you gotta wait until it's light out.

: 1300

00:55:01,051 --> 00:55:03,606

We're not just wandering

around the woods in the dark.

: 1301

00:55:03,890 --> 00:55:05,586

That's how you die."

: 1302

00:55:05,983 --> 00:55:06,923

TheMotionVictor: Mm-hmm.

: 1303

00:55:06,923 --> 00:55:09,593

Bobby is also the only one who

brought a fucking flashlight.

: 1304

00:55:10,202 --> 00:55:10,736

Benjamin: Yeah

: 1305

00:55:11,327 --> 00:55:11,664

, Then,

: 1306

00:55:11,707 --> 00:55:14,550

uh, the sun comes out,

they start wandering.

: 1307

00:55:14,681 --> 00:55:18,312

, Paulie, because he has lost a

shoe, has tied, , some carpet

: 1308

00:55:18,314 --> 00:55:20,991

around his foot, and it falls off

: 1309

00:55:21,309 --> 00:55:23,979

TheMotionVictor: they ripped up the carpet

out of the back of the van to use as

: 1310

00:55:23,979 --> 00:55:27,799

a blanket, which probably the smartest

thing they've done in the entire episode.

: 1311

00:55:28,703 --> 00:55:29,058

Benjamin: Yeah.

: 1312

00:55:29,638 --> 00:55:30,350

it's been a morning: On the list

: 1313

00:55:30,674 --> 00:55:37,168

Benjamin: they, , he loses his carpet

shoe and then starts shooting it, and

: 1314

00:55:37,216 --> 00:55:43,381

they are able to shoot guns and echolocate

each other, And they finally get him,

: 1315

00:55:43,581 --> 00:55:47,207

get into the car and start driving home.

: 1316

00:55:48,043 --> 00:55:53,238

And Tony, Tony is like,

"Hey, you're a captain.

: 1317

00:55:53,296 --> 00:55:54,286

I trust you."

: 1318

00:55:54,557 --> 00:55:58,680

, Which is like the thing Paulie

wanted to hear the whole time.

: 1319

00:55:59,095 --> 00:56:01,188

But he's like, "But you fucked this up.

: 1320

00:56:01,511 --> 00:56:05,706

And so if this guy shows back

up, that is your fucking problem.

: 1321

00:56:05,919 --> 00:56:09,211

Also, your car has been stolen

and the money was in the car."

: 1322

00:56:10,091 --> 00:56:12,261

TheMotionVictor: I think he

gave him a pretty fair deal, you

: 1323

00:56:12,503 --> 00:56:13,679

Benjamin: Oh, absolutely

: 1324

00:56:13,881 --> 00:56:14,221

TheMotionVictor: that's

: 1325

00:56:14,276 --> 00:56:14,668

it's been a morning: Yeah

: 1326

00:56:14,851 --> 00:56:16,771

TheMotionVictor: right, it's

your call, but if it's the wrong

: 1327

00:56:16,771 --> 00:56:18,451

call, you fucking own this shit.

: 1328

00:56:18,511 --> 00:56:18,911

The, the…

: 1329

00:56:19,641 --> 00:56:23,461

I mean, dude, it was the

simplest job ever, and he just

: 1330

00:56:23,591 --> 00:56:25,041

fucked it up by being a dick.

: 1331

00:56:25,447 --> 00:56:25,959

Benjamin: Yes.

: 1332

00:56:26,168 --> 00:56:29,640

The job was complete, and then

he decided to be an asshole

: 1333

00:56:31,161 --> 00:56:31,511

TheMotionVictor: man.

: 1334

00:56:32,871 --> 00:56:33,081

Ugh.

: 1335

00:56:34,111 --> 00:56:38,761

Well, uh, now we're back at the

doctor's office, and seriously, Tony

: 1336

00:56:38,761 --> 00:56:43,521

is complaining about his relationship

with his mistress to the psychiatrist.

: 1337

00:56:43,601 --> 00:56:45,733

Benjamin: Well, and she

makes an interesting point.

: 1338

00:56:47,313 --> 00:56:51,189

Oh, you're, you're da- you're

always dating volatile women

: 1339

00:56:51,189 --> 00:56:55,431

who are, , impossible to, , to

s- impossible to please

: 1340

00:56:57,375 --> 00:56:57,825

TheMotionVictor: Depressed

: 1341

00:56:57,902 --> 00:57:02,242

Benjamin: think you are attracted

to women just like your mom?

: 1342

00:57:03,352 --> 00:57:03,362

it's been a morning: Hmm.

: 1343

00:57:03,605 --> 00:57:04,245

TheMotionVictor: Yep.

: 1344

00:57:05,125 --> 00:57:05,875

100%.

: 1345

00:57:05,895 --> 00:57:09,875

She was like, "Do you know any other

women who, uh, who fit that description?"

: 1346

00:57:13,061 --> 00:57:14,361

Oh, damn.

: 1347

00:57:15,191 --> 00:57:17,421

Well, that's our episode,

and then we go to credits.

: 1348

00:57:17,541 --> 00:57:21,586

And, , yeah, that, that was,

that wa- , the, I think that was

: 1349

00:57:21,596 --> 00:57:22,866

the best one we've seen so far.

: 1350

00:57:22,896 --> 00:57:23,666

That was highly

: 1351

00:57:23,831 --> 00:57:25,826

Benjamin: is one of

the top rated episodes.

: 1352

00:57:26,046 --> 00:57:26,506

TheMotionVictor: Oh, it is?

: 1353

00:57:26,636 --> 00:57:27,152

it's been a morning: Is it?

: 1354

00:57:28,264 --> 00:57:29,646

I didn't check, but I believe it.

: 1355

00:57:29,796 --> 00:57:30,076

TheMotionVictor: Yep.

: 1356

00:57:30,238 --> 00:57:31,428

it's been a morning: it

was a really fun episode

: 1357

00:57:31,654 --> 00:57:33,148

Benjamin: Yeah, this is a 9.7

: 1358

00:57:33,164 --> 00:57:34,023

on IMDB

: 1359

00:57:34,246 --> 00:57:35,186

TheMotionVictor: Wow.

: 1360

00:57:36,269 --> 00:57:37,476

, it's been a morning: I do

wanna call one thing out.

: 1361

00:57:37,490 --> 00:57:39,470

I forgot to mention it when

we were talking earlier.

: 1362

00:57:39,762 --> 00:57:44,208

, When Meadow is, like, at

the nurse with her friends

: 1363

00:57:44,369 --> 00:57:44,876

Benjamin: yeah

: 1364

00:57:44,961 --> 00:57:48,328

it's been a morning: all like, "Your

boyfriend sucks," she says a line

: 1365

00:57:48,328 --> 00:57:52,327

that I think is important, because

it fills in Jackie's backstory,

: 1366

00:57:52,682 --> 00:57:57,465

which is, "No, you don't know what

it was like for us growing up.

: 1367

00:57:57,490 --> 00:57:59,520

You don't know what we went through."

: 1368

00:58:00,379 --> 00:58:04,422

Benjamin: And that ties into something

that is said in couples therapy

: 1369

00:58:04,536 --> 00:58:06,109

it's been a morning: Yes

: 1370

00:58:06,230 --> 00:58:08,083

Benjamin: son of friends.

: 1371

00:58:08,888 --> 00:58:10,461

it's been a morning: Yes

: 1372

00:58:10,606 --> 00:58:11,049

Benjamin: kid

: 1373

00:58:12,109 --> 00:58:12,829

it's been a morning: Yeah。

: 1374

00:58:13,414 --> 00:58:13,664

TheMotionVictor: ah

: 1375

00:58:14,428 --> 00:58:17,656

Benjamin: means he should

fucking know better.

: 1376

00:58:20,475 --> 00:58:21,101

but it also

: 1377

00:58:21,138 --> 00:58:21,435

it's been a morning: But it

: 1378

00:58:22,067 --> 00:58:25,656

, Benjamin: He's probably hella dumb.

: 1379

00:58:27,170 --> 00:58:27,360

TheMotionVictor: Mm.

: 1380

00:58:27,426 --> 00:58:27,715

it's been a morning: Yep

: 1381

00:58:28,628 --> 00:58:33,462

, Benjamin: But this is absolutely one

of those, I have talked to people in

: 1382

00:58:33,463 --> 00:58:38,330

these situations where they are now

out of a relationship and it's like

: 1383

00:58:39,345 --> 00:58:41,632

your first response is, "Oh, good."

: 1384

00:58:41,745 --> 00:58:44,589

, And they are not in a place to hear that.

: 1385

00:58:44,980 --> 00:58:47,702

But you're just like, "No,

this was a bad relationship.

: 1386

00:58:47,725 --> 00:58:48,855

They sucked.

: 1387

00:58:49,141 --> 00:58:50,382

, You don't know them like I do."

: 1388

00:58:50,383 --> 00:58:55,102

And it's like, "No one knows

them like you do you made it up.

: 1389

00:58:55,503 --> 00:58:56,843

That's not who they really are."

: 1390

00:58:59,426 --> 00:58:59,997

it's been a morning: Yay.

: 1391

00:59:00,683 --> 00:59:01,344

All right

: 1392

00:59:01,645 --> 00:59:03,395

TheMotionVictor: for

everyone's, what, , almost

: 1393

00:59:03,531 --> 00:59:04,410

it's been a morning: To roll some dice.

: 1394

00:59:04,651 --> 00:59:05,011

Yeah.

: 1395

00:59:05,225 --> 00:59:06,445

TheMotionVictor: the,

roll the bones first.

: 1396

00:59:06,976 --> 00:59:07,955

it's been a morning: All right.

: 1397

00:59:08,107 --> 00:59:09,668

I got three D6 here,

: 1398

00:59:09,715 --> 00:59:10,195

TheMotionVictor: them bones

: 1399

00:59:13,346 --> 00:59:16,058

it's been a morning: and that

is, whoof, that is a high roll.

: 1400

00:59:16,060 --> 00:59:18,922

That is a 14 on three D6.

: 1401

00:59:19,873 --> 00:59:22,215

Uh, which means we're skipping ahead.

: 1402

00:59:22,922 --> 00:59:29,574

We're not missing all of season four, but

we are up ahead to the season four finale

: 1403

00:59:30,107 --> 00:59:31,077

TheMotionVictor: two finales.

: 1404

00:59:32,907 --> 00:59:33,417

We've, uh…

: 1405

00:59:33,727 --> 00:59:34,757

Yeah, this is the second finale we've…

: 1406

00:59:34,967 --> 00:59:36,387

So this is, uh, Whitecaps

: 1407

00:59:36,602 --> 00:59:39,364

it's been a morning: we'll have

at least three finales then, which

: 1408

00:59:39,366 --> 00:59:41,427

is unusually high for the show.

: 1409

00:59:41,991 --> 00:59:45,979

Um, yep, we got season four,

episode 13, "White Caps."

: 1410

00:59:46,611 --> 00:59:51,823

Tony and Johnny seek to make a move

against Carmine, as Tony haggles with

: 1411

00:59:51,823 --> 00:59:54,470

a lawyer to buy Carmela a beach house.

: 1412

00:59:54,959 --> 00:59:56,329

TheMotionVictor: Oh, interesting

: 1413

00:59:56,560 --> 01:00:00,630

it's been a morning: gets a court ruling,

and Chris- Christopher returns from rehab

: 1414

01:00:02,133 --> 01:00:02,163

TheMotionVictor: Nice.

: 1415

01:00:04,093 --> 01:00:05,463

Junior's still alive.

: 1416

01:00:05,463 --> 01:00:06,113

Damn.

: 1417

01:00:06,183 --> 01:00:07,183

Good job, Junior.

: 1418

01:00:08,413 --> 01:00:09,383

, Have we met Carmine?

: 1419

01:00:09,403 --> 01:00:10,073

Is that, is that

: 1420

01:00:10,318 --> 01:00:11,428

Benjamin: That's gonna be somebody

: 1421

01:00:11,734 --> 01:00:14,133

it's been a morning: I don't

think we've met Johnny or Carmine

: 1422

01:00:14,261 --> 01:00:14,631

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1423

01:00:15,781 --> 01:00:18,161

I'm hoping there's, this is a,

"Hey, maybe we're gonna get that

: 1424

01:00:18,161 --> 01:00:19,741

crossover you've been, , asking for."

: 1425

01:00:19,741 --> 01:00:22,551

Maybe this is Carmine

Falcone from Gotham City.

: 1426

01:00:23,428 --> 01:00:23,885

it's been a morning: Maybe.

: 1427

01:00:24,300 --> 01:00:27,371

mean, you could tell me Carmine

was Junior's first name if he

: 1428

01:00:27,371 --> 01:00:30,434

wasn't referenced also in here,

and I would've believed you

: 1429

01:00:30,469 --> 01:00:35,294

Benjamin: I would love to live in that

alternate universe where the last episode

: 1430

01:00:35,314 --> 01:00:42,405

of, of The Sopranos is just regular

Sopranos shit, and then just Batman shows

: 1431

01:00:42,443 --> 01:00:45,234

up and beats the shit out of all of them.

: 1432

01:00:46,186 --> 01:00:48,026

just like, "What the fuck is this shit?"

: 1433

01:00:48,026 --> 01:00:49,819

And a Batarang to the face.

: 1434

01:00:52,575 --> 01:00:52,795

TheMotionVictor: Oh,

: 1435

01:00:52,871 --> 01:00:57,097

Benjamin: my head, it's Adam West

Batman, not like, not Christian Bale.

: 1436

01:00:57,274 --> 01:00:57,636

, it's been a morning: Yeah.

: 1437

01:00:57,659 --> 01:00:58,259

TheMotionVictor: be amazing

: 1438

01:00:58,489 --> 01:00:59,606

it's been a morning:

That'd be really funny.

: 1439

01:01:00,698 --> 01:01:00,758

Benjamin: zap.

: 1440

01:01:02,039 --> 01:01:04,529

TheMotionVictor: You see, we, we,

we get a shot of, , of, of Tony

: 1441

01:01:04,539 --> 01:01:07,459

climbing onto the roof with the

camera, like, tilted to the side.

: 1442

01:01:07,914 --> 01:01:08,171

Benjamin: Yep.

: 1443

01:01:08,957 --> 01:01:09,957

Sammy Davis Jr.

: 1444

01:01:09,957 --> 01:01:10,440

is there

: 1445

01:01:11,709 --> 01:01:12,489

TheMotionVictor: Oh, man.

: 1446

01:01:12,889 --> 01:01:16,579

Well, now it's time for everyone's

f- favorite part of the show.

: 1447

01:01:18,019 --> 01:01:18,119

Predictions

: 1448

01:01:21,059 --> 01:01:22,353

it's been a morning: Is it

your favorite part of the show?

: 1449

01:01:22,384 --> 01:01:25,898

I know it's your favorite part of the

show, lis- uh, Vic, but listener, is

01:01:25,899 --> 01:01:27,094

it your favorite part of the show?

: 1451

01:01:27,605 --> 01:01:29,705

Lincoln, what are you doing up there?

: 1452

01:01:30,185 --> 01:01:30,665

Guessing.

: 1453

01:01:31,945 --> 01:01:35,095

I guess no one's coming.

: 1454

01:01:35,095 --> 01:01:35,845

I have seen

: 1455

01:01:37,905 --> 01:01:38,585

into the future.

: 1456

01:01:38,585 --> 01:01:38,845

You ruined the prophecy

: 1457

01:01:39,227 --> 01:01:39,497

TheMotionVictor: Hey,

: 1458

01:01:39,657 --> 01:01:40,974

it's been a morning: Get in

the Discord and let us know.

: 1459

01:01:41,026 --> 01:01:41,839

See what I did there?

: 1460

01:01:42,055 --> 01:01:43,601

It's called self-promotion, motherfuckers.

: 1461

01:01:43,602 --> 01:01:44,138

We're bad at

: 1462

01:01:44,305 --> 01:01:44,965

TheMotionVictor: There, yeah.

: 1463

01:01:46,313 --> 01:01:46,348

it's been a morning: it.

: 1464

01:01:46,355 --> 01:01:46,885

TheMotionVictor: Very bad.

: 1465

01:01:46,925 --> 01:01:47,305

All right.

: 1466

01:01:47,325 --> 01:01:49,675

Well, I'll go first then, since

it's my favorite part of the show.

: 1467

01:01:50,535 --> 01:01:54,185

Daytime, easy one,

pitching a softball here.

: 1468

01:01:54,285 --> 01:01:55,595

, Somebody finds Paulie's shoe.

: 1469

01:01:58,095 --> 01:01:58,295

Yeah.

01:01:59,515 --> 01:02:02,255

it's been a morning: fair

01:02:07,085 --> 01:02:07,425

TheMotionVictor: yeah,

: 1475

01:02:07,863 --> 01:02:10,863

Benjamin: Why do you buy a boat if you're

gonna sleep on the couch at your own home?

: 1476

01:02:11,087 --> 01:02:13,217

TheMotionVictor: I, I

think he's gonna, it, he's

TheMotionVictor: gonna

01:02:15,333 --> 01:02:17,435

it's been a morning: he could be

living on this boat right now.

: 1483

01:02:18,033 --> 01:02:18,463

TheMotionVictor: Yeah

: 1484

01:02:18,625 --> 01:02:21,278

it's been a morning: be visiting home

in this episode the way their, their

: 1485

01:02:21,278 --> 01:02:23,304

relationship is currently being treated.

: 1486

01:02:23,821 --> 01:02:26,448

Like, that would not surprise me

: 1487

01:02:26,779 --> 01:02:26,969

TheMotionVictor: Hmm.

: 1488

01:02:27,819 --> 01:02:28,759

the boat have a couch?

: 1489

01:02:29,159 --> 01:02:29,349

I don't

: 1490

01:02:29,398 --> 01:02:29,978

Benjamin: It does

: 1491

01:02:30,036 --> 01:02:30,479

it's been a morning: Yeah, it does.

: 1492

01:02:30,479 --> 01:02:31,720

It's got that little corner couch

: 1493

01:02:31,769 --> 01:02:32,119

TheMotionVictor: Yeah.

: 1494

01:02:32,729 --> 01:02:34,119

Well, I'm gonna say the boat couch works.

: 1495

01:02:35,038 --> 01:02:39,519

Still, the boat cou- the boat, the

boat couch count- boat couch counts.

: 1496

01:02:39,869 --> 01:02:40,309

Yeah.

: 1497

01:02:40,509 --> 01:02:40,859

Wow.

01:02:41,359 --> 01:02:45,199

Prime time prediction,

01:02:47,158 --> 01:02:48,209

it's been a morning: Wow

01:02:49,049 --> 01:02:50,030

Benjamin: Girl boss

: 1501

01:02:53,022 --> 01:02:53,602

All right, Jafer?

: 1502

01:02:57,694 --> 01:02:59,379

Or if you're still writing, I can go

01:02:59,503 --> 01:03:01,403

TheMotionVictor: Are, are, are you

making your predictions right now,

: 1504

01:03:01,408 --> 01:03:03,744

it's been a morning: I'm writing

my last prediction now because I,

: 1505

01:03:04,020 --> 01:03:06,247

I forgot Meadow's boyfriend's name.

: 1506

01:03:06,998 --> 01:03:07,107

, Benjamin: But

: 1507

01:03:07,123 --> 01:03:07,545

it's been a morning: Jackie.

: 1508

01:03:07,548 --> 01:03:07,806

Okay,

: 1509

01:03:07,860 --> 01:03:08,065

I'm

: 1510

01:03:08,106 --> 01:03:08,696

I'm, good to go

: 1511

01:03:08,823 --> 01:03:11,228

, Benjamin: So my daytime, Valerie is alive.

: 1512

01:03:12,002 --> 01:03:12,448

he's gonna

: 1513

01:03:12,651 --> 01:03:13,045

it's been a morning: Okay

: 1514

01:03:13,291 --> 01:03:16,475

Benjamin: He's going to pop up behind

Paulie and try and garrote him.

: 1515

01:03:16,650 --> 01:03:17,477

Like, it is going to…

: 1516

01:03:17,489 --> 01:03:19,882

He is going to come back in a major way

: 1517

01:03:19,888 --> 01:03:21,858

TheMotionVictor: he's the one

who gives, who finally gives

: 1518

01:03:21,858 --> 01:03:23,728

me my piano wire assassination

: 1519

01:03:24,904 --> 01:03:29,644

Benjamin: I'm going to say while

Valerie is alive, my evening

: 1520

01:03:29,645 --> 01:03:32,391

prediction, Livia is dead

: 1521

01:03:33,671 --> 01:03:35,355

it's been a morning: That's

literally my daytime prediction.

: 1522

01:03:36,408 --> 01:03:36,701

Benjamin: Oh, all

: 1523

01:03:37,028 --> 01:03:37,752

it's been a morning:

I'll just switch them.

: 1524

01:03:37,861 --> 01:03:38,276

It's fine

: 1525

01:03:38,432 --> 01:03:40,152

TheMotionVictor: Which w-, , which

one's L- Livia's the mom,

: 1526

01:03:40,309 --> 01:03:40,649

Benjamin: Yep.

: 1527

01:03:41,115 --> 01:03:46,945

And that is why Tony is trying to

find acceptance in other women who

: 1528

01:03:46,945 --> 01:03:48,881

will never be satisfied with him

: 1529

01:03:50,992 --> 01:03:56,219

And my primetime prediction,

Tony sets Paulie up to die

: 1530

01:03:57,834 --> 01:03:58,163

TheMotionVictor: Yeah,

: 1531

01:03:58,383 --> 01:03:59,059

Benjamin: He doesn't kill

: 1532

01:03:59,276 --> 01:04:00,165

it's been a morning: Yeah, I can see that

: 1533

01:04:00,365 --> 01:04:02,487

Benjamin: him in a position to die

: 1534

01:04:03,442 --> 01:04:06,652

TheMotionVictor: I, I, pff, I think

he's gonna do that a few times.

: 1535

01:04:09,863 --> 01:04:10,304

, it's been a morning: All right.

: 1536

01:04:10,327 --> 01:04:14,191

Well, my daytime prediction is Mama

Soprano is already dead, so that's

: 1537

01:04:14,191 --> 01:04:15,859

gonna be my evening prediction now.

: 1538

01:04:16,547 --> 01:04:21,144

, So my daytime prediction, we get a really

touching scene in this when Tony and

: 1539

01:04:21,145 --> 01:04:25,153

Bobby are riding out and they're talking

about their relationship with Junior,

: 1540

01:04:25,256 --> 01:04:25,841

Benjamin: Oh yeah

: 1541

01:04:25,844 --> 01:04:27,886

it's been a morning: and Bobby

says something like, "Oh, you

: 1542

01:04:27,888 --> 01:04:29,507

know, I wish he was my uncle."

: 1543

01:04:30,072 --> 01:04:34,313

, I think over the rest of this

show, Bobby and Tony are gonna

: 1544

01:04:34,315 --> 01:04:35,980

be really endeared to each other.

: 1545

01:04:36,015 --> 01:04:38,114

I mean, presumably Junior's

gonna pass at some point.

: 1546

01:04:38,114 --> 01:04:40,951

He's an old man, , with health

problems 'cause we find out

: 1547

01:04:40,952 --> 01:04:42,284

about the cancer this episode.

: 1548

01:04:42,753 --> 01:04:43,703

They, they reference it.

: 1549

01:04:44,272 --> 01:04:47,462

, I think Bobby and Tony end up

seeing each other as brothers

: 1550

01:04:47,765 --> 01:04:48,186

Benjamin: Oh

: 1551

01:04:50,006 --> 01:04:52,940

, it's been a morning: And then

my primetime prediction, Meadow,

: 1552

01:04:53,238 --> 01:04:56,397

not Tony, takes out Jackie.

: 1553

01:04:56,646 --> 01:05:02,454

Now, I don't necessarily mean kill, but I

do mean definitively remove from the plot.

: 1554

01:05:04,024 --> 01:05:10,450

Like she might not actually kill him,

but she will like scorched earth him

: 1555

01:05:10,476 --> 01:05:15,961

in a way where he is like not able

to be a mob goon like his dad was.

: 1556

01:05:16,194 --> 01:05:18,139

Like his life is effectively ruined.

: 1557

01:05:18,153 --> 01:05:23,111

They have to ship him to fucking

Italy or something like because of

: 1558

01:05:23,112 --> 01:05:25,770

Meadow's machinations, not Tony's

: 1559

01:05:25,815 --> 01:05:26,945

TheMotionVictor: She's

gonna get him canceled.

: 1560

01:05:28,828 --> 01:05:29,669

it's been a morning: yeah, I mean, yeah.

: 1561

01:05:29,721 --> 01:05:30,346

What, , sure.

: 1562

01:05:30,603 --> 01:05:31,024

I'll take it.

: 1563

01:05:32,369 --> 01:05:32,920

, All right.

: 1564

01:05:32,962 --> 01:05:34,765

Well, that is our episode.

: 1565

01:05:34,765 --> 01:05:38,041

We've got our marching orders

01:06:06,817 --> 01:06:08,003

it's been a morning: Just

make sure it's medium rare

: 1577

01:06:10,816 --> 01:06:12,038

Benjamin: Now I want a London broil.

: 1578

01:06:13,099 --> 01:06:13,439
