  Speaker 1: what's your first impression? Why? Giggleleen, because my first impression
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: makes me laugh. Okay, so does mine. I love raid
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: right now, goodhead. My first impression is we can leave
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: In the nineties, do you have the same one. My
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: first impression is simply, what's up? Say we can leave it?
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Let's leave it. I don't miss that. No, you know,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: like sometimes I still say it, what and you're always like,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: what is happening? I have that reaction to you. Yes,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I can't recall. Oh my gosh, you're gonna have to
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: point it out next time you do it. If you
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: are a young listener of this podcast, just just google it.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: It's an old bud light activation for what did I
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: think for some reason it was connected to Taco Bell
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: but it wasn't right. I don't I think it's bud light.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: It is bud Light. Was that? Oh my god? I
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: remember like people would actively say that to each other. Yeah,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: I know. I laughed out loud when Nadine says it.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: That was funny. Let us talk what we liked about
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: a nineties Christmas sign me up for any time travel
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: genre movie. Look, I'm a nineties kid. I mean like
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I was born in nineteen seventy nine, so like the
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: nineties were like my teenage years. I identify pop culturally
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: very much with the nineties. Yeah, And I think the
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: nineties are often an overlooked decade, and like, I think
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: we spent a lot of time talking about the eighties, Yeah,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: as a you know, pop cultural touchstone, and I don't
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: think we got a lot of great things pop culturally
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: out of the nineties. That doesn't mean I don't like
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the movies of the nineties. Yeah, I very much identify
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: with that. And so while I could have used more references,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: I did find many of the references quite satisfying. Yeah,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: so did I. That was probably the biggest thing I
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: was excited about, is to see, like, what are they
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: going to put in this movie that's going to feel
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: relevant to me and my time growing up in the nineties.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, of course we have The Way Home and
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: that season one. They were in the nineties as well, right, well,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: like nineteen ninety nine. Yeah, you're right, oh, this same year. Actually,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: that's funny that Alex is in this Yeah anyway, Yeah,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I really like that. What liked best about this movie though,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: is that Lucy's trip wasn't about fixing her life. Instead,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: it was about helping like the people around her change
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: their future. I guess, yeah, I mean it wasn't about
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: simply fixing her own life. Yes, yeah, she It wasn't
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: simply like that, you know, she and Matt needed to
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: get together. It was that Matt needed to realize her
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: dreams right. And it wasn't that like Alex like she
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: has a better relationship with her. It's that like she
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: and her mom understand her better, like all of these
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: things exactly. Yeah, yeah, I really enjoy like how supportive
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: she was of her sister. That is a highlight scene. Yeah,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: I thought so so good, I cried. I I'm not
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: sure we've gotten like a coming out scene in a
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Mallmark movie, And I just I thought it was really
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: nicely done. I agree. And then for me, the end
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: montage was a standout in this movie. I love a montage,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: but the flashboard of her life, yes, the way they
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: did it was I thought was so cool. And I
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: just love like seeing the ripple effect of like her
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: journey back to nineteen ninety nine. I just that was
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: so cool. Yeah, I thought that was really well done,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: and that they included like Nadine hitting a big with
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: her stocks and Alex getting married and the fact that
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Alex married her like she performed her wedding. I mean,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: I think it's really fun. The nineties. I mean, we
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: talked about the nineties, but like the Joshua Jackson reference
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: super relatable, Like in my digit see that. I'm sorry,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: it's okay, I'll have i have a little bit of commentary,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: but I'll wait for that segment. I just think it's
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: like the a lot of the references that contrast like
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: the nineties versus today, like you can milk an almond.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: That was really funny. You know, a lot of like
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Internet references. And I think my husband when we were
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: watching this was like, she keeps like making mistakes, like
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: talking about things that don't exist. And I was like, yeah,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: because that's her life. You forget that you don't have
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: you know, the Internet or you know whatever. Anyway, Yeah,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: like text me something like what what is that? Or
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: yeah when she's like why two k, It's going to
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: be a non issue. So funny, and they're like who knows. Now.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: One of my roman empires is that HY two K
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: was a big issue and the only reason it was
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: not a non issue is because many people worked very
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: hard in order to make it not a non issue.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: But we have like retconned it and to be like, oh,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: we've blew it into nothing. No, because we made a
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: big deal out of it. They pre solved the problem. Oh,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking because we didn't have like the info at
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: our fingertips, Like we weren't consuming like doom scrolling about
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: it at that. But do you remember, like we they
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: made like stuffed animals that were the Y two K bug.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I don't like kind of vague means are going to
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: shut down the world is like things are going to fail.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: And that didn't happen. And the reason it didn't happen
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: is because some very smart computer scientists figured out the
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: solution ahead of time. Okay, okay, did you clock the
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Lobster Friends thing from you know? No? Really? Yeah? No,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: it didn't shocked by that. I didn't for how many
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: time she watched that series? I know, Yeah it's her lot.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: I immediately knew that's what they were referring to. Yeah,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: you're smarter than I am. And the fact that she
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: spoiled it then was really funny too. And he's like,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's happened yet anyway. Is it Eva Born? Yeah?
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I think so. I thought she was so great, uh huh.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I loved her in this lead role. I know she's
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: been in a bunch of other Hallmark things, but she
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: deserves she was so good. Put her in some more movies.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: She's got great hair, Dude, her hair. At one point,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: I'm like, am I looking at Sarah James, Why are
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: you covering them? I don't because, like I feel like
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: she's a private person and I don't want to say
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: her name out loud. She's one hundred percent not She
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: makes a living posting herself online under her real name.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Oh she does. Let me look right now. Girlfriend was
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: in a Panteen commercial. No, it literally says her first
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: and last name on her Instagram profile. Okay, she was
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: giving Sarah James vibes. We will link Sarah James Instagram
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: profile below. She's whirl on Instagram. She used to have
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: a website called hair Thursday. Like she was in a
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Panteine commercial. Girl's got great hair. I'm telling the listeners Okay, well, yeah,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I know, I know. You know she's spoken an event
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: we hosted Wendy's Like, I know who she is. I
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: know Wendy knows who she is. I mean one of
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: my notes is like, do I think this is the
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: breakout hit of the year. Obviously I do not. Did
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: I find it just sweet enough to thoroughly enjoy watching it? Yeah?
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: I did. I saw some commentary that was like this
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: movie sucked, and I was like, I disagree. I saw
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: a lot of commentary about like this was the worst
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: thing this year blah blah blah, and I just did
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: not feel that way. I'm like, let me suspend disbelief. Yes,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: she went back to her nineteen ninety nine self. I
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: am going to allow myself to believe that. Give me
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: all the time travel, like Star Wars isn't realistic, people like,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: come on, the Avengers is not realistic. Tony's dark does
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: not exist. Let me enjoy a little suspension of disbelief. Now,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: let me ask you. If somebody comes to you and
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: say is a Rice Share driver and they're like, yeah,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: I'm taking you, like back to the future or whatever,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: would you be like GTFO. I mean, she didn't tell
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: her that it was too late. She woke up and
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: was like back in the nineties or whatever she could
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: do about it at that point. No, I know, but okay.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Or if you were a friend and your friend comes
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: to you and says like, I'm from the future, do
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: you go all right? I look, I I'm inclined to
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: believe stuff like that. Are you ready to talk wishes? Yeah?
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Oh so I really liked that montage as well, Like
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: I got kind of emotional watching it. Same, But I
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: also I always wonder because I think, what's the Train
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Time Travel movie with Lindsay Vonseca and Chreydler Massey. Oh, oh,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: you're right, I can't remember what it's called right now. Okay,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: there's the Train Time and Travel movie with Lindsay Fonseca. Yeah,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: and in that movie, I think we have a lot
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: of these movies where they like make a change in
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: their past and then like they return to the future
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: and there's like a fast forward situation, and I'm like,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: did that person get to live it or are they
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: just like now being flooded with the memories of their life.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: And part of me feels really sad about the fact
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: that they would have had this great life and she
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: hasn't actually lived it, she just has the memory of it. Yeah,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: it is sad, but I don't know, maybe we're to
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: believe that like she did live it and she's like realized.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know. That's a very good question I get
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: in the time travel weeds a little bit. So, Okay,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: did this movie lean too heavily into Back to the Future?
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, was it a full ripoff? Yeah, that's a
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: good question. So because what's interesting is they actually reference
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: back to the future. Yes, and then they have the
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: disappearing letter, which is obviously a straight rip from Back
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: to the Future. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know where's the
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: line between like tribute to and fired by and just
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: you wink an entire storyline totally. I don't know totally.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: I was like watching it and I was like, oh,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the letters are disappearing, just like him back to the Future.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: I was like, what is happening? Yeah, it feels like
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: a real rip off. You are changing your future a
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: little bit too much. Yeah. So, I but you know,
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Hot Tub Time Machine does the same thing. Love that
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: it does the same thing, right with the kid who
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: starts to kind of like become invisible as like his
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: parents meeting becomes less inevitable. So it's not the first
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: time the sting has happened. I will say that as
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: an aside. When we watched Hot Frosty, Craig Robinson is
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: in that movie. He was, of course also in the
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Hot Tub Time Machines, and as soon as he walks
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: on screen, my husband goes, oh my gosh, Craig, get
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: out of this movie and go make Hot Tub Time
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Machine three. I mean, I wonder why they haven't made
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: a third version of that movie, like it feels like
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: a cult a favorite. Yeah, I don't know. It's gotta
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: be expensive. Those are expensive actors. I mean, Craig Robertson,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: John Cusac, Chevy Chase, I mean, those are expensive. It
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: time out, Time Out, Chimmy Chase is supposed to have
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: a Christmas movie out this year that Chris Paala is. Yes,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: where is it? It's on Hoopla and I'm trying to
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: watch it before tomorrow. When we discuss when we talked
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: to Chris was a theatrical release, I don't know hopefully
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: that interview happened if it didn't. Surprise and I saw
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: that and I was like, Chevy Chase and Dennis Quaid.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: It's like a Christmas vacation reunion. And I went to look,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: like where it's streaming, and it's on Hoopla, which I
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: was I was actually gonna try, and so am I
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: a TFS Hoopla? Is this? This is the library card thing?
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: We talked about it in every single episode of My
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Name Mister Christmas. But why did they go to wait,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: where is it streaming? At that? I used the just hey,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: hot tip, you're not talking about this movie anymore. I
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: use an app called just Watch and you can look
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: up shows and it'll tell you all the apps it's
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: streaming on. Oh cool. Yeah, anyway, I don't know where
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: that came from. What are we talking about? Oh, Chevy Chase.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: You were just like having a moment. Let's get back on.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: I don't care. A lot of people have talked about this,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: the whole age of the characters. Yeah, make it make
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: sense to me. Look, this was a conversation in our
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Facebook group, and I'll say here what I said there.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: You have the challenge of this isn't a time travel movie.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: They're not like going back as their future selves. They're
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: going back into their past selves. So these actors have
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: to play both the nineteen ninety nine and the twenty
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: twenty four versions of themselves, right, which, by the way,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: I think corresponding, Mike pointed out that, like, she's too
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: young to be playing the twenty twenty four version of herself,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: so I think they had to pick actors who like
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: didn't look forty but didn't look twenty either. Yeah, they're both.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: They both have very young faces. They're both rather young looking.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: But again this is a suspension, like give her bangs
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: and take away glasses and she's young and yeah, Park
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Chandler's hair in the middle and he's young too, but
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: he had the same hair that he did. He did
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: have that center part. It was shaggy or maybe in
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: the past. I mean, I appreciate it because that's what
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: I remember my husband having hair like that too at
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: one point. Oh yeah, parted in the middle one hundred.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: But you know, it makes it hard for me to
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: be like, what what time frame are we in? Because
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: you look the same. Yeah, but you're also accepting that
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: you've got this like time traveling guru who travels by
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Volkswagen bug and she's alerted to changing the past every time.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: The Twelve Days of Christmas appears. Yes, yes, okay, another
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: thing that I wished for. I thought it was unrealistic
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: to blame Lucy for not staying close to her high
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: school friends when she's off working towards her career. Yeah,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: how many high school friends are you that close to? None?
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: And so was like, I might be a jerk though
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not the well too gold standard, But I also
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: don't think it's one hundred percent my fault. I mean,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: people grow up, and not that you grow out of relationships,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: but your future takes you different places, and it's not
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: like being in homeroom with your bff every day for
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: the last four years. You're now like off in college
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: and you don't see each other anymore, and it's just different,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: you know. I do feel like kind of a jerk though,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: because my parents have high school friends, Like some of
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: their best friends are still their best from high school.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: That's admirable, But not me, not me anymore? Wishes No,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: what about you? I'm ready to talk? Did you see that?
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Oh right, I have a couple here too. Go ahead,
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Well you talked about it earlier. The Joshua Jacks Joshua
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: Jackson doodle. Yeah, funny for a couple of reasons. One
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: because like he's having a moment again. Yes, you know
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: he's in that new show like Doctor Odyssey, but they
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: would have filmed this before that came out, obviously. Yeah,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: why choose Josh Jackson? I mean, nineteen ninety nine is
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: kind of like peque Dawson's Creek. He definitely was, Yeah,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: but I don't remember people like loving him there Pacey?
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Did people love Pacey? I loved Pacy end of that series,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: Like I loved Pacey. People loved I mean, I think
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: you were either team Dawson or team Paisy. But what
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I thought was weird about this scene is she like
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: sees it and goes, oh Lucy, And I was like,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: but why oh Lucy? Like it would have been funnier
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: if it was a doodle of somebody who liked great
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: standing today. Yeah, or you're like, well that was a choice, yes,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: But maybe she's like, it's just the idea that you're
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: doodling the name of a celebrity, right, an unattainable persona,
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: as opposed to doodling the name of your next door
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: neighbor bestie fair. I have two others. Yeah, they are
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: on the ice skating rink. Why are there decorated trees
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: and potted points all the time? They do this all
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: the time. It's such a hazard. How are you ice
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: skating when there's trees on the rink and and they're
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: decorated and lit? So tell me, like, how does that work?
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: Shooting the scene? They're like pretending to ice skate around
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: these things because there's got to be extension chords that
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: are like running to plug these trees in good point.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: That doesn't any case sense to me. I agree with you.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: I don't get it. I don't get why they do that.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: When she is in her glasses when she's old Lucy,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think there's glass in our glasses. I don't know. Oh,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't think so. I don't know there's a lens
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: in there. I noticed it and listiter. Mackie also shared
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: with us the poster in her room is a She's
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: All There poster a clay on the movie She's All That,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: starring a Hallmark actress Rajelie Cook. Yeah. The final thing
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: is why is Grace's steering wheel on the right hand
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: side of her car? I was wondering that too, like
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: she was, what the heck is that lady's name you
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: don't remember, like the nanny, the nanny who would come
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: to your house and like help whip your kids and
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: not whip but shape your kids. Joe Frost. Yeah, what
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: was her show called Snanny super Nanny and her wasn't
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: heard like steering wheel on the other because she was
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: from England. Maybe maybe it's just supposed to be like
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: a sign that like she is not of this world,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: is not quite right. I was wondering that too. I
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: don't know. That's a good question. And it's never explained though, right, No,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: never explained. She's like, look at my magic time traveling bug. Yeah,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: that's so weird. She has such a big role in
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: shifting gears and like this is such a small role
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: compared in comparison. Yeah, I well is it? I think
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: it's on par with all the other sporting actors. Maybe
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: she's kind of driving the story forward quite a bit. Literally.
• 21:55

• 21:58
  Speaker 1: and a half stars. I gave it thstars. Thank you
