Episode seven, Like a Keith 0:01:25.800 --> 0:01:29.199 in the Knight. It opens up right on the heels 0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:34.520 of the previous episode Nazi Harcourt is having Chris and 0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:40.440 Harcourt arrested in the office of Argus. Harcourt is like, Chris, 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:43.679 I can't believe that you didn't notice you've been hanging 0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:45.720 out in Nazi world. And he's like, well, I'm not 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:48.360 like a super well read. 0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:51.360 Guy, because like mine camp everywhere. 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:54.840 Would I be this yeah? Would I be this ripped 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.320 if if I was like reading books? And she's like, well, 0:01:57.560 --> 0:02:03.120 how did you not notice? In a rerunnable, how did 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:07.080 you not notice this mural of Hitler? And there's smash 0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:10.480 cut to a huge wall sized mural of Hitler. 0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.960 Uh so you have the American flag with the Nazi 0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:14.880 symbol on it too. 0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:19.920 Like to be fair, Harcourt had also been through that 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:23.079 office and did not call out the Hitler mural until 0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:30.000 this very moment. Let's let's just relax. But yes, hilarious 0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:35.079 gag that stretches credulity. Chris tells Nazi Harcourt, listen, I 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.280 think we got to break up, and it's complicated, but 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:40.760 we got to do it. Then he and Harcourt fight everybody, 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:42.640 They take out all the Nazis and they begin their 0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:47.520 escape from the office. Back at Vig's house Nazi dimension Vig, 0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:50.400 who is actually anti fascists, Yes. 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:54.960 Important here, one of the few non Nazis. And of 0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:57.799 course we love the reason. Yes, the reason he. 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:03.520 Is, uh, the nemesis of this world's Peacemaker is because 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:07.079 he's devoutly anti fascist and they're the top trio, and 0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:09.280 he say he wants to take Peacemaker down anyway. He 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:13.480 explains to our Vig what's going on. You know, it's 0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:17.639 pretty basic, you know, Philip K. Dick type stuff. The 0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:19.600 Nazis one World War two. 0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:23.480 Which means this athet we were correct, yeah. 0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:29.880 Right, And in this in this world all wealth, there's 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:35.240 a capitalist system, yes, but it's significantly fueled by the 0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:38.800 slave labor of all the non white, non straight people 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:41.480 who have been herded into camps and there they toil 0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:48.119 away in horrific conditions. I'm sure Antifa Vige has been 0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:50.600 you know, fightings and justice for years, as he says, 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:55.640 and then regular Vig is like, oh yeah, wait a second, 0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:58.000 I can't remember the black woman. An think the vision 0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:00.960 is like, we okay, we have to go get her 0:04:01.040 --> 0:04:04.280 right now because she's a tremendous danger. She is being 0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:08.600 chased down the street Captain Triumph. Also in that mob, 0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:12.240 Blue Dragon calls him and is like, listen, whatever you're doing, 0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:14.280 leave that because I need you back home right now. 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:16.240 And he's like really, but I'm in the middle. So 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:17.840 he's like, no, no, no, you got to come here. 0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:21.040 And we see that Blue Dragon has Economists taped to 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:24.320 a chair and he has him holding a block of 0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:27.560 C four in one hand and like the trigger in 0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:30.240 the other hand, so he has to keep a hold 0:04:30.279 --> 0:04:33.080 on that grip or else you know what, He's gonna 0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:35.000 blow up. But also Blue Dragon's gonna blow but he's 0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:36.880 in the power suit. I don't know. Yeah, I got it. 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:37.640 I gotta say. 0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:40.520 John Economus as a character, Steve Age, You're great, we 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:41.680 love you. We had you on the Pology. 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:42.120 Amazing. 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:45.479 John Economus is a character I was always doing so 0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:48.919 much TV yelling this episode like this motherfucker has never 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:52.000 been loyal in his life, Like this guy is the 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:56.280 easiest to go guy, like he is gonna just give 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:59.200 up his friends any case. And it was frustrating to 0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:01.960 watch now it does he love them, yes, but he's useless. 0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.479 He's just incapable of shutting the fuck up at any 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:05.159 given time. 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:07.880 I don't know, does he really give them up though 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:11.240 I kind of feel like, well, there's been many times 0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:14.320 over the course of this season that he could have 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:17.960 given them up in a significant ways, and yet he 0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:22.800 works when not confronted. Behind the scenes, he is working 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:25.200 to save them and doing different things to save them. 0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:29.680 It's just when you put him under pressure exactly, that's 0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:33.080 the problem. Well, I mean he's a back where he's 0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:39.360 an office guy. He's not he should be in the office. 0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:42.320 And he's self aware. He's admitted multiple times this season 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:43.760 he has social deficiency. 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:49.560 So I actually think it's a very interesting character, aw 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:52.400 because this whole season has been about you know, loyalty 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:55.080 and kind of finding your own place, and I think 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:57.400 is very bad for us to have a character who 0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:00.280 really doesn't have that and doesn't act as you would 0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:03.400 expect the kind of heroic character to act, like when 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:04.080 you know. 0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:07.200 Captain Triumph and Blue Dragon a kind. 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:10.800 Of you know, have him there with the two are 0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:13.080 the characters that end up there. Like he just will 0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:15.680 constantly be like, I wasn't involved, I wasn't there, Like 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:17.440 you know, it's he can't help it. 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:19.480 He can't even make himself look good. 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:26.840 Right, Yeah, he can't Ad flees over fences, through backyards 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:29.360 and finally into his swing pool. She swims to the 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:31.599 end of the swiming pool. The Nazis are on her tail, 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:34.600 almost like like Nazis zombies from Call of Dude. 0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:37.440 Yes, it's very intense, and as. 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:40.440 She comes to the edge of the pool, Judo Master 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:42.839 is there, pulls her out of the pool and then 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:47.320 cooks the Nazis with a down electric cable and he 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:50.040 and Ad and then we get to enjoy the dead 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:54.960 bodies of the Nazis and the broiling ramen water for 0:06:55.000 --> 0:06:59.080 a moment, and then they escape. In the lobby of Argusts, 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:02.080 Chris activates his pack to get he and Hardcourt out there. 0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:04.480 Heavily can cuss, I'm sure, but they managed to get 0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:07.240 on the peace cycle and get away. Triumph arrives home 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.920 to this bizarre scene of economists taped to a chair 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:13.760 and his dad and Economists is just again blaming. He's like, 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:19.200 I'm just I'm just like a common thief. No, actually, 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:22.040 I'm sorry, Wade. I'm a guy from another dimension and 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:26.120 I'm really sorry. Uh, you know, I'm from that dimension 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:31.680 where you know, Mike Chris killed your Chris and is 0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:35.280 currently impersonating him, and I'm so sorry about that loose 0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:40.680 Blue Dragon, but they would have figured that yeah, yeah, 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:45.480 I mean, Blue Dragon tells Triumph listen, I'm sorry to 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:48.280 tell you this, but your brother is dead. I will say. 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:51.360 Before we get we'll talk about this further. I love 0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:55.520 that in every dimension Chris is dad basically doesn't give 0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:56.280 a shit about. 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:08.560 But come on, I'm so excited to talk more about 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:11.280 that because I do think that the choices they make 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:12.840 with Blue Dragon hair, it's. 0:08:12.680 --> 0:08:19.480 So pretty interesting, very very interesting. Okay, so, uh eaglely 0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:24.200 walks in Economists is like, hey, go kill the Nazi 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:30.240 versions of Chris's family, and uh Dragon meanwhile is telling 0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:33.280 Captain Triumph that, you know, we'll be in big trouble 0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:36.360 because apparently nobody knows about this portal. If Chris happens 0:08:36.400 --> 0:08:39.400 to tell Argusts or anybody about this portal, like, well, 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:41.200 we're going to be in big trouble. We have to 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:44.680 stop him. So Triumph realizes in that moment that wait, 0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:46.960 you know what, I think hardcore is also no Nazi. 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:53.720 She's wearing pants, which, by the way, again another great 0:08:53.880 --> 0:08:56.319 bit of seeding by James Gunn. 0:08:56.840 --> 0:08:59.680 The older women in the Nazi world, these kind of 0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:02.719 flower see florally outfits. 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:04.200 We saw other Amelia like that. 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:07.400 I think this is just such good storytelling that all 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:09.800 pays off in a really interesting. 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:10.160 It's great way. 0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:13.000 And also the pants joke is so funny because they 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:15.520 just do it for too long. They both keep being 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.960 shocked she's wearing pants, and it kind of like it 0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:19.880 keeps going almost too long. 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:23.000 But and it's it's perfect. This is a really great episode. 0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:26.160 So Judo brings out a Bio to a house that 0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:28.600 he's been hiding out in that he broke into. It's 0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:32.720 got a lot of snacks, awesome. He is like, we 0:09:32.760 --> 0:09:34.000 need to get out of here. We need to get 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:36.480 back to that portal, you know, the portal code. She doesn't. 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:39.959 He also explains like we're in a world where the 0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:44.240 nazis one. I've been reading all these books, and he 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:47.559 and ade Bio basically smashed their beef, you know, at 0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:50.480 a Bio tasered him multiple times and him having to 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:54.040 you know, go up against the eleven street kids in 0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:57.760 ways in which he's usually lost. He's like, I'm willing 0:09:57.800 --> 0:09:59.960 to smash all of that so we can just like 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:01.040 get out of here. 0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:04.760 I will say we were right. 0:10:04.920 --> 0:10:06.720 That's what we were right for us because we definitely 0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:09.080 guess that Judo would end up saving ads and that. 0:10:09.400 --> 0:10:10.600 Yeah, I love this. 0:10:10.720 --> 0:10:14.480 I think Judo Master this is maybe his best episode, 0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:18.120 and I love the characterization here and it's so funny. 0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:19.840 And I'm so excited to see more. 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:22.480 I love that this is another thing kind of like 0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:25.680 with Mantis, where James Gunn did a representation of a 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:28.000 character in the first season where a bunch of people. 0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:29.679 Were like, Eh, why do you always. 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:32.280 Do your characters like this, Like why is Mantis a 0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:37.120 silent strong you know, it's very tropy when it comes 0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.400 to way like Asian women are represented. And I think 0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:41.959 with Judo Master, there was definitely a conversation about him 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:44.080 being like a nerve character or being like a butt 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.120 of the joke, and I love that James Gunn has 0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:48.280 the capacity to listen to that and change it. 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:48.880 And I think this. 0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:52.199 Episode is really a strong Judo Master episode, and I'm 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:55.360 very excited to see him clearly in whatever goes forward 0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:58.080 being part of the eleventh Street Kids. 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:05.920 Yeah, Judo then breaks out a scrabble set. Scrabble call it. 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:08.760 They call it scrabble here, but it actually makes a 0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:10.800 lot of sense when you get into it. And then 0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:15.120 he proceeds to wipe the board with Atebaio. Peacemaker and 0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:19.080 Harcourt enjoy a tender moment on the back of his 0:11:19.600 --> 0:11:23.280 stolen motorcycle while the cops are in pursuit, you know, 0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:26.600 enjoying the feel of each other's bodies against each other. 0:11:26.760 --> 0:11:31.640 It's very heartwarming. Cops eventually close in on them and 0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:35.880 surround them. But Blue Dragon and tryump and gun down 0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:40.800 like fifteen and the number is exactly fifteen cops in 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:43.280 that moment, and and say you got to come with 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:45.239 us and Bordeaux. 0:11:46.200 --> 0:11:48.640 When was the last time on TV you saw two 0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:50.560 superheroes blowing up cop cause. 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:54.680 Question, it's been a while. 0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:59.200 I mean, Wakanda Forever is probably my the lost time 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:01.040 I saw like the cops lived. 0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:04.240 I mean, this is Nazi cops though, yeah, I. 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:06.360 Would say that. 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:09.480 In Black Panther two, you may be surprised if you 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:15.840 watch the scene where more first appears and you see 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:18.960 really trying to learn how to use the suit with 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:21.520 Sherry and trying to escape, you may be surprised at 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:24.120 how many cop cars get blown up and flipped over 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:27.760 on that bridge in Oakland, I remember being distinctly impressed 0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:28.040 by it. 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.559 But I think, yeah, you know, I. 0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:34.560 Think that there is an esthetic and qualitative difference between 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:36.160 you blow up the you know, it's the G I. 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:40.840 Joe issue. You see the plane blow up and the 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:43.720 parachute come out, and sometimes, you know, you see the 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:47.480 plane blow up and you just imagine that the parachute. Yes, yes, 0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:52.559 this is like there are like machine gunning, like they're falling. 0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:53.760 Yeah. 0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:58.199 Senior and Bordeaux pull former Luther minion Sidney Happerson out 0:12:58.240 --> 0:12:59.920 of prison and he is going to be the point 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.959 person for find the portal. They set him up in 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:07.000 Luther's mobile headquarters from Superman, and he asks, I think 0:13:07.000 --> 0:13:08.880 a very important question, just like what do I get? 0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:11.839 Do I get moved? Do I get like something? And 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:14.880 Seniors like, no, I I'll just go back to Luther 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:18.320 and say that you didn't want to do it. And 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:23.640 so that's enough for Sydney. And Sydney like immediately finds 0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:26.800 the portal, like he justs on the machines and it's 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:28.040 like right there, oh there it is. 0:13:28.080 --> 0:13:34.720 It's and. 0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:38.400 He notes from the strength and the and the quality 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:41.240 of the signal that oh, you know, this is clearly 0:13:41.280 --> 0:13:45.280 like a better design than our Lex Corp. A multidimensional portal. 0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:51.680 Like our portal was always picking up weird interdimensional shiite. 0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:54.439 This one seems very very yeah, this one's very stable, 0:13:54.679 --> 0:13:57.360 So they send the coordinates the florry. Ada and Judo 0:13:57.480 --> 0:14:01.439 and the Nazi dimension are talking about Leo Dad's wife 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:05.160 and ex wife relationship with her, and Judo makes a 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:07.520 good point that hey, maybe it's actually your fault, like 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:11.000 you're the one who changed the whole deal on the 0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:13.360 you know, you were supposed to open the store and 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:16.120 now you want to be like a soldier for hire, 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:18.959 and maybe it's it might be actually your fault. Then 0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:21.320 Chris comes up and Juda masters like, I, well that 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:24.440 guy I still hate. We are good, but that guy 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:28.120 is a piece of shit, big time, Like and here's 0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:30.720 all the reasons, and the reasons are absolutely valid. But 0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:34.760 Ada is like, listen, he's changed, he is, he's got 0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:37.720 a good heart. Some of the stuff that he's turned 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:41.680 me onto actually turned out to be good. And she's 0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:44.000 and he's my best friend also, so like you're gonna 0:14:44.080 --> 0:14:46.760 have to just get over it with him. I'm vouching 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:48.680 for him and give him a try. He's a good guy. 0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:51.640 And then Judo's like why was he living in Nazi 0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:55.400 world and like having a great time here, and Adam 0:14:55.440 --> 0:15:01.120 I was like, again, he's a cool guy. I think 0:15:02.000 --> 0:15:03.520 she said to him. 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:05.600 She said to him, like she said I said. I 0:15:05.600 --> 0:15:09.080 think she said, I said he's cool, not small thing. 0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:11.000 And I was like, yeah, he's fucking dumb. We get it. 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:17.200 So it night falls and it's time to escape back 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:19.120 to the mansion to get into the portal. They begin 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:21.560 doing that. Back at the house, Dragon and Triumph come 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:25.000 in with Chris and Harcourt. There's economists. Dragon is like, listen, 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:28.000 I need to know everything. I need to know why 0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:30.040 you're here. I need to know how you came here, 0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:32.120 and I need to know how many people you came 0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:37.240 here with. Chris is like it was a total accident. 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:41.280 I was drunk. I was freaked out by how everything's 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:45.200 different but the same. I didn't mean to kill your son, 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:48.680 but like he had a gun on my head and 0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:53.120 it just was instinct and it happened. Triumph is like seething, 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:57.520 He's can't you barely hold it together? And Dragon is 0:15:58.040 --> 0:16:00.720 constantly having to be like chill. 0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:06.560 The fuck, like, come on, calm down, Dragon surprisingly chilled out. 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:13.600 More chill of more chilled out. So he then is like, well, 0:16:13.600 --> 0:16:15.720 why'd you come back? Why? You know, like you came 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:17.600 out here, you saw it, and then you came back 0:16:17.640 --> 0:16:19.600 and tried to live here. Why And Chris is like, 0:16:19.720 --> 0:16:22.520 you know, because you know, in my world my dad 0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:24.920 and my brother are dead, and my brother dying was 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:28.200 like with extremely traumatic moment, and just to be part 0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:32.000 of a family it felt great. Dragon asks Harcourt, how 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.240 many did you come here with? But before they can 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:37.080 really get into that, there's a knock and Dragon leaves 0:16:37.120 --> 0:16:40.520 Triumph alone with our friends to go inswer the door, 0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:42.440 and it's the cops and they're like, listen, have you 0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:46.240 seen Peacemaker. No, well he's wanted in connection with the 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:50.880 machine gunning of fifteen cops recently. And Dragon's like, well, listen, 0:16:51.560 --> 0:16:53.480 this might be Nazi world, but there are laws, at 0:16:53.560 --> 0:16:54.760 least for the white men. 0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:56.360 So get off. 0:16:56.600 --> 0:16:59.360 Want to come in here, Get off my fucking lawn 0:16:59.360 --> 0:17:02.520 and come back with with a warrant. Judo an ad 0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:05.200 are watching, like all these cops milling around and the like, 0:17:05.200 --> 0:17:06.639 how are you gonna get through these guys? But then 0:17:06.680 --> 0:17:11.720 the Viges show up Hey, the Viges and Judo Master 0:17:12.160 --> 0:17:16.360 immediately begin beefing. Once again. Ad has to calm them 0:17:16.400 --> 0:17:19.920 down and be like, listen, he's helping me. He's cool. 0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:22.240 What do we do about these cops? Okay, let's kill 0:17:22.240 --> 0:17:27.320 all the cops. Inside, Dragon is questioning everybody about the Alts. 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:29.159 When the all the Alts show up, they have to 0:17:29.160 --> 0:17:31.040 go back to their world and never come back. He 0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:33.480 makes that very clear, don't you even never come back? 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:36.800 He doesn't really care that his son got killed, which 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:41.000 Triumph is very very upset about, and clearly that's going 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:43.520 to be an ongoing issue. And again this is where 0:17:43.520 --> 0:17:46.120 it really hit home for me that like, wow, it's 0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:51.040 actually crazy that perhaps that in this world too, and 0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:56.120 perhaps in many worlds, Chris's dad just does not give 0:17:56.160 --> 0:18:01.639 a shit, like in a meaningful way, he likes him enough, even. 0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:05.000 In a world where seemingly because there's a really I 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:09.040 think there's a very interesting moment that they they kind 0:18:09.040 --> 0:18:13.240 of slide in here where earlier on they're talking about 0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:20.040 how he had actually met the Dragon from the main DCU, 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:23.000 like Prime DCU, and how he'd felt like he was 0:18:23.040 --> 0:18:26.199 really cruel and evil, and so I think that the 0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:29.400 notion here is Yeah, no matter what version of Blue 0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:32.800 Dragon it is, he always hates Chris because whatever version 0:18:32.800 --> 0:18:35.240 of Chris it is isn't the right Chris, you know, 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:37.360 which is like such a depressing thing to think. It's 0:18:37.400 --> 0:18:41.119 basically like what if the Scarlet which storyline from the 0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:43.239 MCU was inverted and it was like, what if your 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:46.040 parents hated you in every universe instead of your mom 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:48.919 trying to find you in every universe. Also, let me 0:18:48.920 --> 0:18:55.120 ask you guys this here we get the moment where 0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:58.520 Blue Dragon says, don't call me a Nazi. 0:19:00.720 --> 0:19:01.280 The Nazi. 0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:03.919 Let me just talk about it. Let me yeah, let 0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:05.800 me just describe the scenes. So they're like, well, this 0:19:05.840 --> 0:19:08.119 is Nazi world and you're a Nazi and stuff. And 0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:10.440 he's like, ah, don't call me that. I hate what's 0:19:10.520 --> 0:19:13.359 going on here. I'll let you know back, I don't 0:19:13.600 --> 0:19:18.000 like it, and he and he pushes back pretty strongly 0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:19.919 on the idea that he is a supporter of this. 0:19:20.040 --> 0:19:22.640 Now I agree with you. I think, like, listen, are 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:26.160 there people just like in our world? Are there people 0:19:26.320 --> 0:19:29.760 who like disagree who live in countries that you know, 0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:32.840 you have to always make a distinction between the government, 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:36.439 political the yeah, the political system of a place and 0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:40.320 the people that said he is part of the top 0:19:40.400 --> 0:19:42.720 trio in the world. You know. 0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:47.359 It is interesting though, because he says in response to that, 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:49.520 he's like, well, I don't know about in your perfect world, 0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:51.680 but like here, you know, do you like stop every 0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:55.000 single injustice in your world? That's like, okay, that's a 0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:59.359 fair point, Like there is no perfect conversation the world 0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:04.280 run by not He's a pretty big one, you know. 0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:06.600 I think it's an important I do think it's an 0:20:06.640 --> 0:20:11.080 important conversation because he brings up some good points and 0:20:11.160 --> 0:20:14.000 a certain point. You know, if you're gonna make these big, 0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:19.200 sweeping statements that are on their face probably true, you're 0:20:19.200 --> 0:20:21.160 gonna have to reckon with the fact that some people 0:20:21.200 --> 0:20:23.720 are gonna get dropped into a bucket that maybe don't 0:20:23.760 --> 0:20:26.320 believe Blunger and that's it to look at the and 0:20:26.760 --> 0:20:29.720 we don't know what, you know, it seems like the 0:20:29.880 --> 0:20:32.880 what we've seen of the top Trio is they're fighting Kaijus. 0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:38.240 They're not like on concentration camp duty, you know what 0:20:38.320 --> 0:20:38.560 I mean? 0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:41.280 Like, actually, you make a good point because there's a 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:45.040 moment where when he's explaining that he's chasing off the 0:20:45.080 --> 0:20:48.080 ads because he thought one of them got out. That's 0:20:48.119 --> 0:20:50.840 Captain Triumph who said that his dad is like, what 0:20:50.880 --> 0:20:53.360 the fuck is wrong with you? Like, we don't do that, 0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:55.840 That's like not our job. So they obviously feel like 0:20:55.880 --> 0:20:59.480 that separation is keeping them. And we also get a 0:20:59.480 --> 0:21:03.879 moment here where Blue Dragon talks about how clearly like 0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:06.840 the cops are corrupted. He doesn't mind lying about the cops. 0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:11.240 He's not gonna hand him over. It's an unexpectedly complex. 0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:21.840 And I think we're meant to wonder if if having 0:21:22.040 --> 0:21:25.000 power in this world, but kind of like not doing 0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:28.000 anything about the stuff that you see is wrong, is 0:21:29.359 --> 0:21:32.040 does that make you a Nazier? Not? I personally, I 0:21:32.160 --> 0:21:36.120 kind of feel like, listen, you're the top team, you're 0:21:36.160 --> 0:21:39.880 the top trio. Your son was chasing a black woman 0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:45.440 down the street because he thought one of them got out. Exactly, 0:21:46.520 --> 0:21:50.840 you don't even have influence with him, and in fact, 0:21:50.960 --> 0:21:53.000 you're like walking around and enjoying the fruits of the 0:21:53.080 --> 0:21:56.200 system without ever actually challenging. And I don't know, it 0:21:56.320 --> 0:21:58.240 kind of feels like it's Nazist hit. 0:21:58.280 --> 0:22:01.680 It's the Regina Jackson quote where it's like, if there's 0:22:01.720 --> 0:22:03.959 a Nazi at the table and ten other people are 0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:05.040 sitting there talking to him. 0:22:05.040 --> 0:22:08.119
