Speaker 4: Schmid, who was still dealing with the effects of his
Speaker 4: double breakup, vows to put an end to Nick and
Speaker 4: Jess he can cox a plan and informs Jess of
Speaker 4: a sexual something called the Captain that he insists will
Speaker 4: help Nick with his p nile issues. Meanwhile, Winston is
Speaker 4: on a mission to get Ferguson laid before his neutering.
Speaker 4: This goes a bit too far and ends with him
Speaker 4: starting a cat brothel in his.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 4: So, this episode is directed by Fred Goss, written by
Speaker 4: JJ Fielden.
Speaker 2: Let's dive in.
Speaker 1: Let's dive in before we just we get into the
Speaker 1: meat of the episode, I just want to ask you,
Speaker 1: do you remember like your New Girl origin story, like
Speaker 1: idea this all came to be?
Speaker 3: Well, it's sort of two parts. I remember I was
Speaker 3: on the and the was it the Warner brother the
Speaker 3: Warner Brothers. I mix up the lots the Fox. I
Speaker 3: was on the Fox lot auditioning for something else, and
Speaker 3: I ran into Liz Merriweather and I was like, Oh,
Speaker 3: what are you doing? And she's like, oh, I'm going
Speaker 3: to pitch this show like and she was talking about
Speaker 3: She's like, it's this girl with these rooms. She was
Speaker 3: on the way to the pitch and then when I
Speaker 3: saw I saw the billboards and stuff. I'm like, that
Speaker 3: was that's the show Girl with the roommates and yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: so I ran into her on the way. So there
Speaker 3: was that. And then one night I was I'd worked
Speaker 3: that day on something else and I was in the
Speaker 3: bathtub and my phone kept ringing. So I was like hello,
Speaker 3: and they're like, hey, can you come do New Girl
Speaker 3: tomorrow morning? And I was like, oh, yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 3: I love that show. I'm so excited. So it was
Speaker 3: just someone must have dropped out or I mean, I
Speaker 3: don't care, like I'll take a recast. I don't care.
Speaker 3: Somebody must have had some sort of last minute dropout thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got there. I remember who it was. Who
Speaker 2: was it? Yeah it was Oprah.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, she's always getting all my parts.
Speaker 1: She's always Yeah, she would have been here in the
Speaker 1: waiting room. You both look at each other, and you.
Speaker 3: Know, Oprah, she is hilarious, that's what she. Very funny
Speaker 3: sitcom queen.
Speaker 1: At the last minute offer that just came in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like eight pm. And I'm not great
Speaker 3: with lines, so I was like, I was so good.
Speaker 3: I'd seen the show a bunch because that I didn't
Speaker 3: have to worry about that. But I was just like
Speaker 3: going over lines and stuff. And then I went in
Speaker 3: the next day at like six am and just started, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Did you know you were going to have to do
Speaker 1: a lot of cat handling?
Speaker 3: They did tell me, They're like, are you are you
Speaker 3: allergic to cats? And can you work tomorrow? I was like, no,
Speaker 3: and yes, what am I doing?
Speaker 1: Look at little board? He's how interesting They had an interesting.
Speaker 2: No, they did not ask me. They didn't give a damn.
Speaker 4: In fact, I was taking medication. I was scratched up
Speaker 4: all over the place. I just got scratch marks.
Speaker 2: Given like the.
Speaker 1: Cat to any of us right in the like in
Speaker 1: the show.
Speaker 3: And they chose and they just didn't air.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had two cats at home, like I am
Speaker 1: a loud cat lady, and they gave it to Lamourn. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And also, you know, I bet I wonder if that's
Speaker 3: what happened to the original person. Maybe they got the
Speaker 3: script and they were like, I can't I can't hold
Speaker 3: a cat, And then it does sound like Oprah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, everybody knows she hates her cats.
Speaker 3: She hates animals and nature.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she has pet kangaroos.
Speaker 3: But you know what I mean wait, so you were
Speaker 3: allergic that whole time. I didn't remember that part the
Speaker 3: whole time.
Speaker 4: And there have been multiple episodes where I had to
Speaker 4: be involved with like not just one cat, but a
Speaker 4: number of cats. Again, there was that one. We had it,
Speaker 4: We had, I guess, like I said, multiple episodes where
Speaker 4: I'm surrounded by these feelines which I'm allergic to.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what this is.
Speaker 3: It's a cat storyline the entire time. There's a there's
Speaker 3: barely a shot of you in the episode not holding
Speaker 3: a cat right here. I know, I know, and you
Speaker 3: don't hold it kind of close to your face for
Speaker 3: the shot, so you can't hold it like you're like
Speaker 3: you normally.
Speaker 4: I'll tell you they it got to the point where
Speaker 4: I became such a diva about it, and not a diva,
Speaker 4: but you know, I was bleeding a lot from the
Speaker 4: scratches that they decided to get a fake cat for
Speaker 4: my close ups. So whenever it was my close up
Speaker 4: and you would just see the top of the cat,
Speaker 4: it was a fake one.
Speaker 3: Was that in our episode or that was later? No,
Speaker 3: that was later, okay, because I was like, I don't
Speaker 3: remember that at all.
Speaker 1: They would have Ferguson and scenes sometimes with Lamourn and
Speaker 1: I and I'm holding Ferguson for no reason that's ever
Speaker 1: explained in the Show're.
Speaker 3: Like, well, they're really read any of scratches all over it.
Speaker 1: Just holding a cat.
Speaker 3: Did you guys have an action cat or no?
Speaker 2: Did you action cat?
Speaker 1: Action?
Speaker 3: I did a sitcom pilot once. It didn't get picked up,
Speaker 3: but it there was. There was a cat is like
Speaker 3: part of the storyline and they had two sort of
Speaker 3: identical looking cats and one was the sleepy cat and
Speaker 3: the action cat. So yeah, we'd be holding Ashley, you know,
Speaker 3: for all the like nice parts, and then they would
Speaker 3: swap out the cat. They'd be like action cat and
Speaker 3: this cat would come in when it had to do
Speaker 3: like choreography, like move across the room.
Speaker 4: We did that with your show. We did that with
Speaker 4: your kids sometimes on the show Hannah.
Speaker 1: Really whats right? Twins yeah, wins.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Ferguson was a solo Ferguson was a solo a solo act.
Speaker 4: So if Ferguson was not in the mood to work
Speaker 4: that day, guess what we were punting and we were
Speaker 4: doing something else. Because once he started yawning, Oh my god,
Speaker 4: once he started yawning. Then the cat wranglers would go,
Speaker 4: he's tired, he must go to sleep, and they would
Speaker 4: just take him away.
Speaker 2: And I was like, I'm tired. Don't nobody come care?
Speaker 3: Like I'm tired, I'm allergic, I'm covering the shit. I
Speaker 3: can't breathe. Everyone's like, oh, we do not care.
Speaker 5: We do.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I saw Ferguson's paycheck.
Speaker 3: Did you really you did?
Speaker 1: For real?
Speaker 2: Ferguson was making Ricky and I were like, we're like clack.
Speaker 1: We're like please, that's important.
Speaker 3: I bet can'ts make more than women, don't they?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 4: So there was the men on the show, then there
Speaker 4: was the cats, and then there was the women on
Speaker 4: the show. There was that Ferguson was making two hundred
Speaker 4: and twelve thousand dollars in episode.
Speaker 1: The Facts, by the way, the Facts on the Oprah.
Speaker 1: We got Oprah in here, all real world's winches cat. Oh,
Speaker 1: we got to dive into this episode, you guys. We
Speaker 1: have to get in because I for some reason, when
Speaker 1: I was called the captain, I thought it was like
Speaker 1: the episode we shot on the.
Speaker 2: Boat on the boat, No.
Speaker 1: Right, no, And then I was like, wait a minute,
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like they're gonna end up on the Queen Mary,
Speaker 1: what's happening here? And then I learned what the captain.
Speaker 1: I felt traumatized.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I want to kick it off.
Speaker 4: Okay, so post sex, right, Nick rolls over in bed
Speaker 4: and pours water all over his face, as one does
Speaker 4: after a night of action, and Jess says she wants
Speaker 4: to film it, but she doesn't want to film it
Speaker 4: because then that would just be pornography. Now have you
Speaker 4: had these this is a disgusting.
Speaker 1: Maybe keep going, no question.
Speaker 2: Well, because I'm like when I watched it, I was like,
Speaker 2: when I watched it, I was like, man, that don't happen.
Speaker 2: That don't happen. I'm getting up.
Speaker 1: It doesn't happen.
Speaker 2: Ah, you were good? Oh so are you?
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, let's talk about how great we were
Speaker 4: after doing it.
Speaker 3: I think only in sort of like one night situations,
Speaker 3: if they seem instanter and you want them to like
Speaker 3: be your friend, you're like, yeah, like, oh that was
Speaker 3: because it's you put in the past. You're like that
Speaker 3: was awesome. You're sort of tying it up with that.
Speaker 3: I think that, yeah, wow, that was so great. Now
Speaker 3: that that's over. That was amazing.
Speaker 2: You know, no, I agree, one percent agree.
Speaker 4: Now, just suggest that maybe they take a break from
Speaker 4: sex and talk about their childhoods, you know, really get
Speaker 4: to each other's heads. Nick says he's gonna go uh
Speaker 4: banana before round two instead of talking about his feelings.
Speaker 4: I didn't know what that meant until I realized what
Speaker 4: that meant. He's just gonna go load up on a banana.
Speaker 1: Just say you're gonna give it a banana. Needs to
Speaker 1: create a cute little way of saying it.
Speaker 3: That's the New Girl way, though, it is you gotta
Speaker 3: have a cute little yeah, a little cute Yeah. It's
Speaker 3: cute little things everywhere.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, So it is true. That was their whole thing,
Speaker 1: the misdirect in language. I feel like it was a
Speaker 1: big thing on New Girl. You're like, what where you
Speaker 1: had to go? It's a bit yeah, yeah, just go
Speaker 1: eat a banana.
Speaker 2: Now. Meanwhile, Schmid, he's in the living room.
Speaker 4: He doesn't understand how Nick and Jess are so loud,
Speaker 4: because they are apparently very very loud. He can't get
Speaker 4: it because Nick's body is also soft that it should
Speaker 4: absorb sound and then rude Winston tells Schmidt, but being
Speaker 4: dumped by two women on the same day has to
Speaker 4: be a record, and Schmidt pledges that he is going
Speaker 4: to put an end to Nick and Jess. Now we
Speaker 4: talked about this in the last episode. This is a
Speaker 4: very sinister version of Max Weird.
Speaker 3: Weird Schmidt such a good actor that you can you
Speaker 3: still feel sorry for it, you can still sympathize with it.
Speaker 3: If he was like a slightly worse actor, the crowd
Speaker 3: would like turn against him and they'd be like, he
Speaker 3: has to just apologize and change and be boring, but
Speaker 3: pull it off.
Speaker 1: I know that was the whole There was so many
Speaker 1: articles written around season three of if it was anyone else,
Speaker 1: it would like sink a series because you just made
Speaker 1: one of the most beloved characters like so intentionally cruel
Speaker 1: and just.
Speaker 3: Sell reasons and nothing to do with them. He's not
Speaker 3: like they'd be better off a part. He's like, I
Speaker 3: would be better yeah.
Speaker 1: If you're apart yeah, and really is like a menace
Speaker 1: about it.
Speaker 3: She has to ruin their sex life.
Speaker 1: That is dark.
Speaker 4: Has you ever has anyone tried to do that to you?
Speaker 4: Ruin your relationship?
Speaker 1: Break someone up?
Speaker 3: Not that I love, possibly but not that I'm aware of.
Speaker 2: I think I think someone did that to me once. Really, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I haven't confronted them about it yet, but I will.
Speaker 2: Was it recent, No, just a few years ago, but
Speaker 2: for real?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think somebody like God involved, And yeah, changed.
Speaker 2: Over the years, you start to realize certain things and
Speaker 2: you go, hold on, was it you this entire time?
Speaker 2: It's like that movie, Uh, wicker Park? Have you seen
Speaker 2: that movie?
Speaker 4: You see that movie wicker Park with Josh Hartnett and
Speaker 4: Rosebyurne and no, oh my gosh, it's it's anyway. I
Speaker 4: don't want to get into that because we're talking about
Speaker 4: New Girl, not wicker Park.
Speaker 3: But I've seen Usual Suspects. It's very like, oh, that
Speaker 3: was you.
Speaker 1: You know, the same as your breakup.
Speaker 2: More we broke up at Kaiser Permanente. Anyway, That's okay.
Speaker 4: So, so Winston suggests to Schmidt that he should invest
Speaker 4: in one of his survival kits. He goes into his bag,
Speaker 4: He's got a blindfold, he's got a bell wrapped around
Speaker 4: a ribbons so they can hear when he's coming.
Speaker 2: That's it's so dumb.
Speaker 4: And meanwhile, Jess and Nick they lie about going to
Speaker 4: have sex in the bathroom and they can't lie obviously,
Speaker 4: and it's giddy. This is a strange moment for me
Speaker 4: because I used to have roommates. It's me and I
Speaker 4: lived with three different women, and this is right around.
Speaker 4: It's like right soon after or soon before I booked
Speaker 4: New Girl. I think I told you about this, Hannah.
Speaker 4: And there were times I had one rule. When they
Speaker 4: moved in, I said, I just don't want to hear it.
Speaker 4: And I don't want to see no dudes in my
Speaker 4: kitchen with their shirts off.
Speaker 2: He could be in the kitchen.
Speaker 4: I just don't want to see you know what I mean,
Speaker 4: post quital chest.
Speaker 2: I don't want to see it.
Speaker 4: And yeah, in the amount of times that not only
Speaker 4: did I hear it, but did I see post quital
Speaker 4: chest in my kitchen.
Speaker 1: Said reset rules and boundaries, and they were like cool, yep,
Speaker 1: no problem. Moved in, and the Navy you were like,
Speaker 1: I haven't thought any of that ship there made me
Speaker 1: a sandwich to naked.
Speaker 4: Now normally, you know, because I'm like, oh, I don't care,
Speaker 4: you know, like if it happens, I'm going to address it.
Speaker 4: But one time it happened, and this man must have
Speaker 4: been a bodybuilder and he was just in my refrigerator.
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, bro.
Speaker 4: I was like, what who are you? And he's like, man,
Speaker 4: I'm just a friend. And he's like you mind if
Speaker 4: I I.
Speaker 2: Was like, yeah, do your thing and he just walks by.
Speaker 4: I'm talking out of breath, sweaty, with the vitamin water
Speaker 4: on his hand, not a breath.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: I was like, I moved out.
Speaker 3: Did you know?
Speaker 1: That was it? That was like the final straw for you.
Speaker 4: I was like, listen, if we can't follow simple rules,
Speaker 4: you guys, that's really easy.
Speaker 3: Put a shirt on, that's so easy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe their plan worked to get gone, Like like,
Speaker 1: work yourself up, pretend you're out of breath, go out there.
Speaker 3: It's right control. We want him gone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, your chest, it's gonna be great. I want
Speaker 1: that second bedroom.
Speaker 4: Now they have those conversation, they have this conversation about
Speaker 4: what Winston but once whence it's got going on, He's
Speaker 4: gonna he Ferguson needs to be neutered and so, but
Speaker 4: he needs to get himself laid right, Like he wants
Speaker 4: him to get laid before.
Speaker 2: You get some Yeah, it's like a little you know
Speaker 2: what I mean is that I don't Hannah, I don't
Speaker 2: have cats. You know what I mean? Is that like
Speaker 2: a real conversation or a thought before you go and
Speaker 2: neoter go? You getting neutered?
Speaker 1: No, I mean this is a This is a man,
Speaker 1: Winston who thinks he's got to spell out the word
Speaker 1: vet in front of the cat.
Speaker 3: There.
Speaker 1: Okay, he went the e T.
Speaker 2: You know, cats can understand that.
Speaker 4: I didn't understand the logic of that, because cats understand
Speaker 4: what we're saying when you give them commands, when you
Speaker 4: say things like.
Speaker 2: They run. You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Yeah, boo to any cats? What are you doing to
Speaker 1: these cats when you're scratching?
Speaker 2: You get him out of here. They're always in my backyard,
Speaker 2: the strays. I don't know.
Speaker 1: So Nick and just say they need to throw a
Speaker 1: cat bachelor party to get him laid. They're laughing, But
Speaker 1: of course Winston, he's not kidding down. He is the
Speaker 1: greatest idea I've ever heard.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah. Just then Schmid walks in with a sheet cake,
Speaker 4: the massive cake. Just in typical New girl fashion. One
Speaker 4: of the roommates stopped and had a cake made to
Speaker 4: celebrate Nick and justice one month anniversary. But Nick and
Speaker 4: Jess obviously don't trust him.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 4: Nick says, after Schmid watched The Titanic, he started the
Speaker 4: Billy z Ain fan the Zaniacs, and that infuriates Jess.
Speaker 4: And then Nick walks into Schmid's room. Schmidt reminds him
Speaker 4: that usually one month into a relationship, Nick is panicky
Speaker 4: and he's overthinking. You know, he's distant, he's nervous, he's sweaty,
Speaker 4: he's overthinking, and he's also overthinking.
Speaker 1: And then great Max and where he's just like stirring
Speaker 1: them and stirring them.
Speaker 4: It's stirring them, and which is a real thing when
Speaker 4: you get into a person's head. The results that happen
Speaker 4: on New Girl are sometimes, you know, reflected in real
Speaker 4: life that can happen if you get into your head.
Speaker 4: Sometimes it just don't.
Speaker 2: It doesn't.
Speaker 4: Never happened to me, Never happened to me. I just
Speaker 4: heard heard about it in an article that this happens
Speaker 4: to men. Sometimes they can't perform the way they want
Speaker 4: to perform. And so far it seems as if Schmidt's
Speaker 4: his plan to break them up is slowly working, because
Speaker 4: when Nick's in bed with Jess, it, like I said,
Speaker 4: it doesn't quite go the way he wants it to go,
Speaker 4: and she tries everything, which is, uh, what'd you say.
Speaker 1: Uh, that's the way she wants it to go?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yes, it is really right.
Speaker 3: In that line, I'm like, Wow, they got away with
Speaker 3: a lot of network TV and going down. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 3: I didn't know we could do that.
Speaker 1: That's yeah, and we're honest on that show. There was
Speaker 1: a lot of standards and practices like that were there
Speaker 1: all the time because I feel like that was also
Speaker 1: like Liz has a cheeky sense of humor, right, so
Speaker 1: she likes to kind of push it, and I was
Speaker 1: surprised how much we got away with in this episode two.
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, yeah, oh yeah, it was so funny.
Speaker 4: Though, what did she say, uh, the reverse psychology method,
Speaker 4: I'm not attracted to you, I think you're fat cut
Speaker 4: to her all blue Papa Smurf blue face.
Speaker 2: Then she punches him in the face.
Speaker 3: That was funny.
Speaker 4: So two episodes the episode prior he gets punched in
Speaker 4: his penis twice by CC and then this episode just
Speaker 4: punches him in the face. Now, the funniest part of
Speaker 4: that moment is which the next morning they're still awake
Speaker 4: as she goes, well the sun finally, Well.
Speaker 1: Get up brutal. I'm like, what's your approach now? Just
Speaker 1: to destroy this man into a thousand pieces.
Speaker 2: Okay, now we jump into some Ricky action here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he gets meat Ricky and fatty and fatty. Yeah
Speaker 1: what was that? Where did that come from?
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it was really Yeah, it was
Speaker 3: just one of those things where I just kind of
Speaker 3: looked at the lines, stayed up in the kind of
Speaker 3: camp was like I was. I felt like I was
Speaker 3: filming six minutes after I got the job. It was
Speaker 3: just very fast.
Speaker 1: Oh, here, you're in your pet store. Here's a fatty question.
Speaker 3: It was really.
Speaker 4: So at thet the French shop wizds asking the work.
Speaker 2: The cat that they have is slutty. Winston is so stupid.
Speaker 4: He starts a conversation with a woman customer there who
Speaker 4: is picking up her cat.
Speaker 2: Let's know who is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's ready.
Speaker 2: I didn't say it.
Speaker 4: And that's but that's the funny game in this in
Speaker 4: this episode is is I'm trying to get my cat
Speaker 4: laid and you are because you don't know the ways
Speaker 4: of Winston. He's a perfect stranger. You think, you think
Speaker 4: he's trying to get himself laid with you, and.
Speaker 3: I think it's going really well. Yeah, okay, let's skip everything,
Speaker 3: let's get right to it.
Speaker 5: I was at one point, yeah, I think at one
Speaker 5: point when you I forget the exact line when your
Speaker 5: character says you should bring wine and he's like, I
Speaker 5: don't think they want to.
Speaker 3: I love when you're like do you have all your parts?
Speaker 3: I'm like, like, what is it talking about? I guess.
Speaker 1: You know what is though. I feel like everyone's been
Speaker 1: in that scenario, right when you were like out in
Speaker 1: the dating world and someone says something that you don't
Speaker 1: quite understand, but you're like, oh, yeah, absolutely sure, I
Speaker 1: love that, but you don't know really what's going on.
Speaker 1: But you're just hoping that was like a non sequitor thing,
Speaker 1: and then it will just keep moving down this very
Speaker 1: obvious path.
Speaker 2: This happened recently to me. This happened recently. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was on a work trip, went on a what
Speaker 4: I thought was a date with a lovely young lady,
Speaker 4: and it.
Speaker 2: Turns out it wasn't quite a date.
Speaker 4: I based off of our interactions and our text messages
Speaker 4: of what was happening. I thought it was a date
Speaker 4: and it turns out not so much. And I didn't
Speaker 4: realize that until like three thirty in the morning.
Speaker 2: Two thirty in the morning.
Speaker 4: It was like, wait, what oh, this is like an
Speaker 4: informational hank.
Speaker 1: Thank you information to give you informational hang.
Speaker 3: Ooh you don't do informational hangs late at night? Therese
Speaker 3: are like, no, was it eleven?
Speaker 2: Yeah, hit me up for coffee.
Speaker 3: I remember having a date where it was definitely a date,
Speaker 3: but we were I wasn't sure what he was talking about.
Speaker 3: He kept going, well, people like us, and he kept saying, well,
Speaker 3: people like you and me, well we and he kept
Speaker 3: having and I was like, I didn't know what he
Speaker 3: was talking about. And then he was like.
Speaker 2: And this was not that he's trying to recruit you
Speaker 2: to a white nationalist group.
Speaker 3: No, no, thank no, he wasn't. It wasn't like that.
Speaker 3: But he was like it was like not that long.
Speaker 3: It was like twenty eighteen or something. And he's like, well,
Speaker 3: he's like you said you're an actor, right, He's like,
Speaker 3: people like us, like we just will never get work. Well,
Speaker 3: it'll never happen for us. And I was like, oh, okay,
Speaker 3: and he's like yeah, you're like oh, I want to
Speaker 3: be in comedy. Well, you know, people like us, you know,
Speaker 3: just doesn't work out. And I was like, oh uh.
Speaker 3: And then I couldn't correct him. I couldn't be like
Speaker 3: it worked out for me, you know. I was like
Speaker 3: I had to be like, yeah, losers like us, it's
Speaker 3: just the world against us. And then I just crayed
Speaker 3: along with the fact that nothing was going right for
Speaker 3: either of us the rest of the date. And then
Speaker 3: I just went home.
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, approach will never be a success.
Speaker 1: Let's link up together. I'll also do no research on
Speaker 1: who I'm getting.
Speaker 2: Nothing.
Speaker 3: We just like he was like Sandy, He like came
Speaker 3: right from the beach and sat down like you know,
Speaker 3: he's like, well, people like us. And I was like,
Speaker 3: this is a really weird date.
Speaker 4: You leave, there's a massive billboard view on the outside. Yeah,
Speaker 4: turn you ahead, don't look that way, don't look at.
Speaker 3: That's for people not like us. Yeah, it's really weird though.
Speaker 2: But you can't correct them.
Speaker 3: One. You can't be like it's going okay for me,
Speaker 3: you know, you just have.
Speaker 4: To be like no, absolutely not to We're gonna go
Speaker 4: on a quick little break here, but when we come
Speaker 4: back Hannah, No, we're not. We're not gonna We're not
Speaker 4: gonna play a guessing game. But when we come back,
Speaker 4: we're gonna talk about the remainder of this episode.
Speaker 1: Were talking about the Captain. We're getting to.
Speaker 2: The captain, okay.
Speaker 4: So what we're gonna have to do with these outlines
Speaker 4: is erase where's the bear?
Speaker 1: Hannah Becau, because I know you're so excited to just ask.
Speaker 2: Me every time because you're okay, you know what, Let's.
Speaker 1: Talk about it right now on the podcast for one second, okay,
Speaker 1: because here's the thing. I know we're not supposed to
Speaker 1: talk about the bear because I'm doing my own bear thing,
Speaker 1: but I just want to say Chicago brown bear.
Speaker 2: Okay, Chicago brown bear? Was that a picture of it?
Speaker 2: Like Schmitzery, sorry, talk about.
Speaker 3: He does the Chicago brown bear in the episode.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: I just want to wed the bear.
Speaker 3: Where's the bear merch?
Speaker 1: Well, I think I'm going to earn my own bear
Speaker 1: merch when we do that final episode, and I think
Speaker 1: people are gonna buy it.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 1: It is a big fan theory that there is a
Speaker 1: bear in every episode. Laburren says, no, I say yes,
Speaker 1: it was so much time on the podcast.
Speaker 3: I've heard that episode and there's definitely a brown Bear
Speaker 3: in this one.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much.
Speaker 6: All right the break, Okay, well you got lucky, and
Speaker 6: we are back.
Speaker 4: We're back at the loft, Nick and jest. They eat
Speaker 4: cereal in silence. Jess says she talked to her mom
Speaker 4: and dad about this.
Speaker 1: She's a long working member.
Speaker 2: That's the one thing you don't do is tell anybody.
Speaker 4: But I could imagine for all those guys that had
Speaker 4: happened to that the significant other that they're laying with
Speaker 4: has told multiple people like Yeah, I don't think I
Speaker 4: don't I don't think.
Speaker 2: People are keeping that to themselves. Really, yeah, I just
Speaker 2: I don't know. There's something about it. It's a funny thing.
Speaker 1: I think you're telling us more about you. Yeah. The
Speaker 1: rest of that's something I would keep.
Speaker 3: To myself, except if it was like an ongoing problem.
Speaker 3: I might consult my best friend and be like, it's
Speaker 3: been three months if there was like a real problem.
Speaker 3: But if it was like one time, you know, I mean,
Speaker 3: if it was like one time, I don't think I
Speaker 3: would tell anyone. It feels like that's like a breach
Speaker 3: of the trust circle.
Speaker 4: Guys, relaxed. It was one time after I was I
Speaker 4: was out late. It was late, I was tired, I
Speaker 4: worked that day. Relax, you, guys, Relax. But she told
Speaker 4: her parents big no no. And justin Schmid, he exits
Speaker 4: a room and he lets just know that if she's hey, wait,
Speaker 4: I have.
Speaker 1: To just talk about this really quickly because Nick says
Speaker 1: he's got to move his car, and he says it
Speaker 1: multiple times during this episode, and it made me laugh
Speaker 1: out loud last night when I was rewatching, because I
Speaker 1: remember those days so clearly, when like I lived in
Speaker 1: my apartment for a thousand years here in la and
Speaker 1: it was a real thing of like it wasn't a
Speaker 1: made of you had to move your car. It was
Speaker 1: like eight a m. The street cleaners are coming. You're
Speaker 1: parked on this side and not on that side. You
Speaker 1: have to run down. You have to get in your
Speaker 1: car with everybody else's movie their car, and now you're
Speaker 1: just like running around the like little block trying to
Speaker 1: find a spot to put your freaking car. And that
Speaker 1: you got to look at the time and be like,
Speaker 1: wh do we have to move my car again? And
Speaker 1: it was a real thing, and it was such an
Speaker 1: la bit of writing that I loved so deeply because
Speaker 1: this show is like, you know, she chose to like
Speaker 1: to set it here so she could shoot l A
Speaker 1: for l A Liz, and so I was. I just
Speaker 1: loved that little bit because I remember it took me
Speaker 1: back to that, you know, like, what do you mean
Speaker 1: you don't you never to parcade?
Speaker 2: I've always a parcade.
Speaker 1: But you haven't.
Speaker 2: I've never heard of that.
Speaker 3: It sounds like that butter substitute parquet.
Speaker 1: It's a parkade, okay, that place?
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I've never I've never a parking garage. Sure,
Speaker 4: parking a lot. Absolutely, I've never had to park on
Speaker 4: the street.
Speaker 1: That was like stayed at a friend's house and stayed
Speaker 1: overnight and then in the morning I had to like,
Speaker 1: move your car.
Speaker 2: I'm not moving That's true. I'm not moving my car.
Speaker 2: I'm leaving like I'm fleeing.
Speaker 1: I gotta go, all right. I took me back, I
Speaker 1: don't know, made me laugh so hard. I just remember
Speaker 1: that being like, oh God, I get help move my car.
Speaker 4: Now, Schmidt, he asks of the room. He let's just
Speaker 4: know that if she's having a nick problem that he
Speaker 4: could help her out. And now remember he is playing
Speaker 4: mind games. This man is manipulating the both of them.
Speaker 4: She doesn't necessarily see it coming. He tells her that
Speaker 4: his diploma was in communications, you know, but that he
Speaker 4: and his heart majored in Nicholas Studies, which gets.
Speaker 2: Her, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: He gets her, she got got, gets her.
Speaker 2: She got got and she just blurts it out.
Speaker 4: So now she's telling her not only did she tell
Speaker 4: her parents and then she didn't, she didn't told the
Speaker 4: man's best friend, that.
Speaker 1: Arch nemesis right now, Yeah, like he has declared himself
Speaker 1: as such.
Speaker 4: And so what he does is is he he tells
Speaker 4: her that the only thing that can get Nick going
Speaker 4: is a little a little dance move in the bedroom
Speaker 4: called the Captain.
Speaker 3: With dance move is putting it lightly. It seems to
Speaker 3: be way more involved. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I like how every time he gets to the specifics
Speaker 4: he blends the blends the smoothie.
Speaker 1: Wild, gesturing oh yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah. So I can only imagine it was pretty
Speaker 2: disgusting because at the end you have.
Speaker 1: To like, mind, how comfortable are you with racial may
Speaker 1: I swear? I was just like, what a what a line?
Speaker 1: What a thing? So let's your imagination do all the work.
Speaker 1: Let's all the viewers imaginations figure out what the captain is.
Speaker 4: For all the viewers and listeners out there, please put
Speaker 4: in the comments what you think the captain is and
Speaker 4: have you tried it?
Speaker 1: No? Thank you? Yes, no, I don't send that to
Speaker 1: Lamore and specifically.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I will definitely respond that, oh wait.
Speaker 1: The dolphin sounds. When he's like, you have no time
Speaker 1: to learn all the dolphins sounds. And then when they
Speaker 1: start and she gets in the room and the lights
Speaker 1: go out and then she makes whatever that sound is,
Speaker 1: I was, oh yeah. Meanwhile, there's also a bound situation
Speaker 1: happened with the two years.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Winston's got some some R and B playing and
Speaker 4: some some cat nip on his.
Speaker 2: Hand and uh and then you come in right, you
Speaker 2: get it the cat You're ready, You're this is again this,
Speaker 2: You're ready.
Speaker 4: But he is like, okay, what are we doing with
Speaker 4: these cats where they have sex?
Speaker 3: I'm like, what.
Speaker 1: The cats don't drink. I like the fact that Winston
Speaker 1: is so fully oblivious. He has now mentioned several times
Speaker 1: about like I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm the fifth wheel.
Speaker 1: And now you when you watch this interaction, he has
Speaker 1: you go like, you've probably had lots of opportunities to
Speaker 1: be with people. She's like, how can you be this blink?
Speaker 1: This someone is in your bedroom, She is ready and willing,
Speaker 1: She's gorgeous.
Speaker 3: And I remember I remember asking like do I really
Speaker 3: make it that obvious? And I like, yep, I'm like okay,
Speaker 3: I'm like, am I down playing it? They're like, do
Speaker 3: not He's really that dumb?
Speaker 1: Is he really that dumb? He's really that dumb?
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: People always ask me, they go, when was the moment
Speaker 4: that you realize your character was that dumb?
Speaker 2: And I always tell him it's this season. This season,
Speaker 2: I mean, just pure stupidity.
Speaker 3: Well, in this episode is kind of a three way
Speaker 3: dumb off between this is true, you know, you and
Speaker 3: Jake and Zoe, Like it's like they're they're believing this
Speaker 3: captain thing.
Speaker 2: They're you know, oh yeah, all three of them are
Speaker 2: Captain happening.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so then obviously nothing's happening in this room, but
Speaker 4: in next room just says they need to talk. She
Speaker 4: says that she was on post captain. This is post captain,
Speaker 4: so here they are post captain. They it looked, to
Speaker 4: be honest with you, it looked like it went.
Speaker 2: Well, that's what.
Speaker 1: I thought too. When they're mother lying there, I was like,
Speaker 1: looks like this was actually like a good time for them.
Speaker 3: But as we learned, they always say when it was,
Speaker 3: so that's like, that was very good. That was the time.
Speaker 1: Silence, the silence, that's true. We were like, oh, this
Speaker 1: was like a good thing.
Speaker 3: You're right.
Speaker 1: They didn't sit there and like give handshakes afterwards.
Speaker 4: So Suspect, well, she lets him know that she was
Speaker 4: uncomfortable with it, and and she wants to know how
Speaker 4: how does the captain normally go? And he tells her,
Speaker 4: what was wrong with you, I've never done that before
Speaker 4: in my life, that he only did it because he
Speaker 4: thought she wanted to do it, and just says she
Speaker 4: only did it because Schmidt told her it was.
Speaker 2: Nick's favorite thing to do. And then that's when, like,
Speaker 2: you know, the cat's out of the bag.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's like a usual Suspects moment where she
Speaker 1: like all of a sudden goes bump bump, bump bump,
Speaker 1: connects the whole things and she goes raging out of
Speaker 1: the room to find Schmidt, who was.
Speaker 4: Delighted yep, and just starts out of the room screaming
Speaker 4: she's gonna kill Schmidt, which she should because actually they
Speaker 4: should be in my opinion, they should be mad at
Speaker 4: themselves for the man told Jim, I am going to
Speaker 4: do everything to break you up, and then just start
Speaker 4: listening to everything that he's saying, like he brought a cake.
Speaker 3: It must not be true.
Speaker 1: Ye now eyeglass? What's the spyglass? I don't know what
Speaker 1: it was, but I don't I don't want to know.
Speaker 1: Please don't DM me anything.
Speaker 2: I don't want to know what that is.
Speaker 4: The captain goes a long way, man, I don't know.
Speaker 4: Has anybody ever looked that up? Have you ever looked Joel?
Speaker 2: Have we looked up? Like if anyone's tried this?
Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
Speaker 6: Right?
Speaker 1: Dangerous aggressive, the dangerous google. I think that's important.
Speaker 3: There has to be a porn of the captain. There
Speaker 3: has to exist. It's rule thirty rule thirty two, right,
Speaker 3: that's what it's called. Yeah, there's a poorn version of it.
Speaker 3: So there's definitely a captain porn. It has to be.
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, I can only oh boy, I wonder
Speaker 4: if Jake actually acted in that.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that is nothing. I'm just like I
Speaker 1: I hope not because it sounds like it's like terrifying.
Speaker 3: Minimum fan fiction. Captain.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, we're gonna find out, but I will not google
Speaker 1: that my algorithm. No, No, is there any.
Speaker 3: Wholesome ones that are just cute or they're all dirty?
Speaker 1: Wait? When did the I'm the Captain Now movie come out?
Speaker 2: Was it before?
Speaker 1: Were we ahead of the curve? Or is this a
Speaker 1: reference to who gets to be the captain and around
Speaker 1: that time? Yeah? Was it the same? Because New Girl
Speaker 1: was also really good at that If something was like
Speaker 1: really popular in the guys, that just like somehow weave
Speaker 1: it into the show.
Speaker 3: All right, where's that guy?
Speaker 1: You want?
Speaker 3: The Oscar?
Speaker 1: Where did he go?
Speaker 2: He? Wait?
Speaker 4: He won?
Speaker 6: Right?
Speaker 1: He did? To know?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I've seen him in a few other
Speaker 4: movies since then. But you know, sometimes one role is
Speaker 4: perfect for you. You know, you get that that lightning
Speaker 4: in the bottle right.
Speaker 2: There, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So Schmid then says, well, job done by enjoy your breakup.
Speaker 1: And this is a beautiful moment in the Nick Jess
Speaker 1: relationship because they go like, no, that's that's that's where
Speaker 1: that's a stay with us. We're just going to go
Speaker 1: right in and open up with our feelings. And that's
Speaker 1: really like this huge growth moment for like the Nick
Speaker 1: character to sit there and to choose the feelings.
Speaker 3: It was very sweet. It was legitimately. I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: that's so yeah, that was very nice.
Speaker 2: I thought that was sweet. Yeah, it was dumb. It
Speaker 2: was I thought that was dumb. It was dumb as hell.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's why I'm single and y'all married.
Speaker 1: Maybe he talks about that story. We sall like the
Speaker 1: zebra named Gavin at the zoo and a baby. He
Speaker 1: cried and he got like a penny to commemorate it,
Speaker 1: and he lost the pet cry. But it was just
Speaker 1: really sweet. And then they kind of like find their
Speaker 1: way through this moment. They don't let Schmidt defeat them,
Speaker 1: and then they make out and they're just like, we're
Speaker 1: back on and Schmidt, you see Schmidt like fully now
Speaker 1: crack oh, because that's it. He's out of ideas.
Speaker 4: He physically tries to break them up. He physically forces
Speaker 4: himself in between them as why would you just break up?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 4: And Schmidt obviously he's hearing noises coming from out I mean, Winston,
Speaker 4: he's hearing noises coming from outside of his room.
Speaker 2: And he gets pissed off.
Speaker 4: You know, it causes Ferguson to get up and walk
Speaker 4: away from the other cat, and he's you know, he's
Speaker 4: still stupid, so and all this, he's still dumb.
Speaker 1: No big moment of growth for Winston here.
Speaker 2: No, no, let's see the dumb off.
Speaker 3: Ultimately, because the other two come out of it, but
Speaker 3: you do not you do not know me. I leave
Speaker 3: and you just let me. You're like, mah.
Speaker 1: That moment where you had to like piece it together
Speaker 1: as a character, though, Ricky, I thought was so great
Speaker 1: because I you know how like sometimes people in a
Speaker 1: scene will just like say what they see. But truly,
Speaker 1: if you were just realizing that this man that you
Speaker 1: brought a bottle of wine, yeah right, sat in his bedroom,
Speaker 1: had zero interest in you and you were just there
Speaker 1: to watch your cats have sex, you would be so astounded.
Speaker 1: You would say very little yeah, like it would be
Speaker 1: so shocking. I thought, you just did like this incredible
Speaker 1: job of conveying of putting, like how it all came
Speaker 1: together in the brain and be like bye.
Speaker 3: And I decided decided that my character had had like
Speaker 3: this was like the eighth bad date she had she
Speaker 3: was just like, well, cool, like this might as well
Speaker 3: happen goodbye, you know. I was also so it wouldn't
Speaker 3: be us.
Speaker 2: About our loft.
Speaker 4: Every guest star ends up in the bathroom at some point,
Speaker 4: there's always a moment of like there, they happen to
Speaker 4: be there and for some reason, like there was no reason.
Speaker 4: That to me is probably more prevalent than the bear
Speaker 4: that a guest star must show face inside of our
Speaker 4: our weird beast.
Speaker 3: It's hard to shoot, and it's really small. They have
Speaker 3: very tiny and yeah, that's like you've.
Speaker 1: Been also always felt gross because of the urinals, even
Speaker 1: though they're just iver seeing somebody from like our crew,
Speaker 1: like sitting on one of the urinels like eating a
Speaker 1: sandwich at lunchtime, but they're just you know, because they're
Speaker 1: not you. It's fine, it's a seat, I guess sure.
Speaker 1: But I was just like, it's just makes me feel gross.
Speaker 1: This bathroom always just makes me feel gross, which is
Speaker 1: a shout out to the great department that built it
Speaker 1: that you can have those real feelings. Schmidt then starts
Speaker 1: to just pound birth control like a lunatic going full
Speaker 1: wheel so that they can't have sex because he's like
Speaker 1: taken their birth control.
Speaker 3: He lives in a world where condoms do not exist.
Speaker 1: Well, he cuts up, he cuts the condoms, and I
Speaker 1: think he knows that, like Nick's character is so broke,
Speaker 1: that's probably like a lot of his money, a lot
Speaker 1: of his money. He's like, I took all the condoms.
Speaker 2: You're done.
Speaker 1: I forget.
Speaker 4: I love the fact that after even after, even after
Speaker 4: she she is it's like the confusion is there that, oh,
Speaker 4: she wanted to sleep with Winston. Winston realizes this, and
Speaker 4: when he's upset, he's still not upset about that. He's
Speaker 4: upset that Ferguson.
Speaker 3: Didn't get even a second is he like, should I
Speaker 3: go see Noos in my apartment wanting to see with me?
Speaker 3: Should I go five seconds out of my way?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: No, just let that go forever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So now we have a loft meeting.
Speaker 1: Funny, Yeah, a loft meeting. He feels the Schmid thinks
Speaker 1: he feels the effect of the birth control pills. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they've taken immediate effect. And now he's feeling all of
Speaker 1: these like feminine aches and pains.
Speaker 2: Yeah, with his body around his body.
Speaker 1: But he realizes something. Now he can't break them up.
Speaker 1: He's got to deal with it. That's what just this.
Speaker 1: You got to just deal with it, right right, You
Speaker 1: got to face it. And then Winston says a very
Speaker 1: iconic line about a cat brothel, which makes me laugh.
Speaker 4: There is no way I have a cat brothel going
Speaker 4: on in my room and I'm the only normal person
Speaker 4: in his loft.
Speaker 1: Oh, very new girl moment. And then so then Schmid
Speaker 1: goes and I guess, leaves a letter we don't know
Speaker 1: what it says, and slides it under CEC's door. She
Speaker 1: gets it, reads it, and trashes it, and he sees.
Speaker 3: That it's a receptacle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's why she puts her gum in it.
Speaker 1: She's like, it means I don't like this gum.
Speaker 2: That's gross. What a what a asshole? CC is to
Speaker 2: Schmidt in this moment.
Speaker 1: You can't let it go.
Speaker 2: I can't let it go. I can't let it go
Speaker 2: because she you clearly have moved on quickly. I'm like this, man, listeness, man.
Speaker 1: But do you know they set this up in season
Speaker 1: one that Cec and Schmid have the same thing. Where
Speaker 1: physical intimacy is easy, emotional intimacy is really hard for them,
Speaker 1: and they're built the same way, And I think that's
Speaker 1: why you kind of see that. And that's also why like,
Speaker 1: especially for him, Like he's a unique character for someone
Speaker 1: to fall madly in love with. And I think that
Speaker 1: that's why they connect so much, because they get each
Speaker 1: other on that level. This ending though between Jess and
Speaker 1: Nick where they talk about the best month of their
Speaker 1: life and this is so wonderful in the relationship and
Speaker 1: now they're gonna go hook up again. But now Nick
Speaker 1: wands up talking about his feelings reminds me of when
Speaker 1: Bruce Willis did his character on Friends. Do you remember
Speaker 1: this with Jennifer Aniston? And she works so hard to
Speaker 1: get him to like open up about his feelings, and
Speaker 1: then he just won't get off the couch and just
Speaker 1: stops crying. And he starts crying about everything about his dog,
Speaker 1: him puppy edwhen he's a kid, And she's like, oh, no,
Speaker 1: what have I done?
Speaker 2: You know what's funny about this?
Speaker 4: Right before then when she comes in the room, he
Speaker 4: surprises her with this soundproofed room that he took egg carton.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, the echts, Yeah yeah, they needed Rick, they
Speaker 4: needed your husband.
Speaker 1: I know they did pull circle.
Speaker 3: He hired to do this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god, he yells, and then immediately Winston
Speaker 2: comes in.
Speaker 1: What's wrong?
Speaker 2: I heard yelling because the soundproofing just does not work.
Speaker 3: Also, how come he couldn't afford condoms but he could
Speaker 3: afford soundproofing.
Speaker 1: It feels like he went through. Here's what it looked
Speaker 1: like to me. It found like he just found stuff
Speaker 1: from like the recycling bin downstairs, the egg curtains, and
Speaker 1: then it looks like he got because she did a
Speaker 1: lot of sewing, Like it just looked like it was
Speaker 1: like random fabrics and I think it was like staple
Speaker 1: or taped to the wall like it doesn't it feels like, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it feels like a very Nick Miller. No, it doesn't
Speaker 1: look like this. He needed a whole husband, that's what
Speaker 1: he needed.
Speaker 4: Yeah, with just on uh un buttons or shirt. While
Speaker 4: and it continues to talk about his feelings. He feels
Speaker 4: like you can see her in three D.
Speaker 1: He's feeling all the feelings.
Speaker 2: Yeah, every one season three.
Speaker 4: D Oh my gosh, we're gonna go to a quick
Speaker 4: commercial break. When we come back, we will be back.
Speaker 4: If you're just tuning in. We are covering episode three four,
Speaker 4: and we are here with Ricky Lindham. We're about to
Speaker 4: do a little thing called the mess around. What's we're
Speaker 4: all gonna mess around with each other, not the way
Speaker 4: you're probably thinking, not like this episode.
Speaker 1: Nobody's thinking about it.
Speaker 2: Stop thinking about it. Stop thinking about it, Hannah, nobody,
Speaker 2: get it out of your head.
Speaker 3: We're not gonna.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay.
Speaker 4: So we talked about this a little bit because the
Speaker 4: first question is what do we think the captain actually entail?
Speaker 2: We didn't get into specifics.
Speaker 1: But do sounds have thrown me off? Like I can't
Speaker 1: even begin to imagine the weirdness if you have to
Speaker 1: turn the lights off and then act like a dolphin,
Speaker 1: Like I'm already out, Like I don't have that much
Speaker 1: weirdness in my brain to like to kind of build
Speaker 1: on what I think.
Speaker 2: I know, what.
Speaker 3: Do you think it is?
Speaker 4: It's like horizontal, you know, she's like this or yeah,
Speaker 4: or he's like this. He's on laying face up, and
Speaker 4: then she's here and she dolphins her way down and
Speaker 4: they dock.
Speaker 1: Oh, but what about the spyglass? What's the spy glass? Then?
Speaker 4: Well, because when she's up there, first she's got to
Speaker 4: go back and find where she's the docking port mm hm,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean. The and then she's the connector,
Speaker 4: if you will. And then she's got to figure out
Speaker 4: how to properly line it up and dock like a dolphin.
Speaker 2: Like, but she does. They do it dolphins, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean? Yeah, And every once in a while
Speaker 2: they yell out a racial slur. I don't know why
Speaker 2: to do that.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I don't know that yourself up
Speaker 1: immediately part feels very strange.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like I feel like because it's you
Speaker 4: got to clean yourself up. It's such a slippery slope
Speaker 4: that that you could one could perform the captain at
Speaker 4: Ditty's house, but anywhere else they don't have the proper
Speaker 4: amount of baby oil.
Speaker 3: All a distraction technique. I think she like distracts him
Speaker 3: with weird stuff, like the way you're supposed to, like
Speaker 3: if you get, you know, cornered by a predator, you're
Speaker 3: supposed to say something bizarre to like throw them off
Speaker 3: for a second so you can get away. She like
