Transcript
- 0:00Out of context summary?
- 0:02Yeah, let's hear it.
- 0:04In this episode, we reject a hot dog.
- 0:07We learn that boat restrooms are somehow worse
- 0:09than your standard public restrooms.
- 0:11And is Sarah going to leave Tommy,
- 0:13because he's drinking again?
- 0:16Uh-oh.
- 0:19Thank you for coming back from our replay reviews.
- 0:22My name is Leah.
- 0:22And my name is Kathy.
- 0:24We are two friends who are here to replay, review,
- 0:26and analyze your favorite video games.
- 0:28And since Kathy has never seen the games before,
- 0:31it helps me view them through her fresh eyes,
- 0:33almost like I'm discovering them again for the first time.
- 0:35We hope it'll be a similar experience for you.
- 0:45Scene one?
- 0:46Yeah.
- 0:47Salieri and Morello are officially at war.
- 0:50No one's trying to hide it anymore.
- 0:52Salieri's plan is to take out people close to Morello
- 0:55to show that it's not safe to stick with him.
- 0:58The first target is Counselor Galati.
- 1:00Finally!
- 1:01Mm-hmm.
- 1:02Tommy is assigned to assassinate him
- 1:04during a public speech at his birthday boat party.
- 1:08It goes OK.
- 1:09He dies.
- 1:10They shoot him.
- 1:11Yeah.
- 1:12And then sometime later, Vincenzo and Sam
- 1:14are chasing down the next target, Morello's brother, Sergio.
- 1:19And it sounds like Sergio has exceptionally good luck
- 1:22and has avoided multiple assassination attempts.
- 1:25And so then now it's Tommy's turn.
- 1:28To carry out the next attempt, which is a car bomb.
- 1:31I will have to say that the boat scene really
- 1:33reminded me of Yakuza.
- 1:35Kind of all goes back to Yakuza.
- 1:39She power a wharf.
- 1:40We're back.
- 1:42Tommy plants the bomb, supposedly under Sergio's car,
- 1:46but is horrified when Sergio's wife, daughter, someone
- 1:51falls victim to it.
- 1:53Are we sure Tommy's cut out for all of this
- 1:56or have things just gotten more intense since he first joined?
- 1:58Because he is shell shocked again.
- 2:02Yeah.
- 2:03He doesn't even take any time to process
- 2:04what happens because he goes from one thing to another.
- 2:07And he just pretty much hangs up on Sarah.
- 2:09So one, he's going to be in the doghouse because of that.
- 2:12But two, she hears the explosion.
- 2:14She's still on the line when that happens.
- 2:18And there's a moment where I feel like Tommy reconsidered
- 2:23saying that, you know what?
- 2:23I'm out.
- 2:24This is not OK.
- 2:25Because I don't think he's ever killed someone innocent
- 2:28at this point.
- 2:29I would agree with that.
- 2:31All right, so right as the crap is hitting
- 2:33the fan with the car bomb, Tommy is informed that Sam and Polly
- 2:37have trapped Sergio down to a restaurant.
- 2:39And Tommy races across town to meet them.
- 2:43So the three of them enter the restaurant
- 2:44with Tommy guns in hand.
- 2:47So first, Sergio is a ginormous ass
- 2:51for using the waitress as a shield.
- 2:53Yes.
- 2:54We need to talk about that.
- 2:55What a coward.
- 2:57It gets worse, though, because second, there
- 3:00is no hesitation to shoot at her from Polly.
- 3:02Mm-hmm.
- 3:03Yeah.
- 3:03But then third, Tommy tries to stop him.
- 3:09So this goes kind of back into this Tommy
- 3:11cut out for this question.
- 3:13But has Tommy changed or has Polly changed?
- 3:16Or is Tommy just starting to realize how intense
- 3:18the mafia actually is?
- 3:21As of this part of this game, I say
- 3:25that Tommy started to see more because it kind of goes back
- 3:28to last week, where we see a lot of red flags in terms
- 3:32of the character O'Sulliary.
- 3:33And you have Sergio willing to put an innocent woman
- 3:38and use her as a shield.
- 3:39And you have Polly, who's willing to shoot
- 3:41an innocent woman.
- 3:42But Tommy isn't and chooses to shove the gun away
- 3:45from Polly aiming it at the woman.
- 3:49His character isn't willing to harm innocent people.
- 3:54And that's so different than everyone else.
- 3:56So I'm thinking at this moment, he's
- 3:58probably too busy to think about it.
- 4:00But he'll be thinking, I don't know if this is right,
- 4:04or I don't want to be the type of person who shoots
- 4:06and harms innocent people.
- 4:08Kind of like the Frank situation where it's like,
- 4:10it could be me.
- 4:11This could be you again.
- 4:12Maybe someone puts a bomb under your car,
- 4:14and Sarah or your daughter goes out for a drive at some point.
- 4:17Do you think that if Polly reported back to Sully
- 4:20or saying that, hey, Tommy, is the reason why it kind of
- 4:24slightly went south between the bomb and this,
- 4:27do you think that Don's going to lose trust in Tommy
- 4:30if he failed twice now?
- 4:33I think last episode, yeah.
- 4:35But in this episode, I don't think so,
- 4:37because I think he's just so intense about taking
- 4:40Morello down that he doesn't really
- 4:42care what kind of trail they leave behind them.
- 4:46Yeah, it's changed.
- 4:48Sergio, he's able to get away and takes off in a car,
- 4:52and Tom follows on a motorcycle.
- 4:56You did well.
- 4:59But right when you get used to the driving in this game,
- 5:02they say, hey, I think you're too comfortable.
- 5:04Let me throw a motorcycle at you.
- 5:07This thing sucks, OK?
- 5:09It does seem that Sergio's luck has run out,
- 5:11because by the time Tommy reaches him,
- 5:14he's all out of ammo.
- 5:15But so is Tommy.
- 5:17But that's OK, because Sergio is deciding
- 5:19to hide in a giant pile of explosive liquid barrels,
- 5:24which is an odd choice.
- 5:26So as you might expect, Tommy just tosses a lighter.
- 5:30But it seemed risky.
- 5:31It seemed risky.
- 5:31Tommy was in there, too.
- 5:33He could have at least taken a couple steps towards the door
- 5:35before he dropped that lighter.
- 5:38Yeah.
- 5:40Anyway, is this the first so long?
- 5:42Yeah, I think so.
- 5:44We're not counting insignificant characters.
- 5:47He is a coward.
- 5:49He decided to take an innocent waitress as his shield.
- 5:54So definitely so long, mother-----er.
- 5:56I would agree.
- 5:57And I think it would be hard in this series
- 5:59to have anyone that's not a mother-----er, just because
- 6:02of the world we're in right now.
- 6:04And there's not as many redeeming qualities
- 6:06as there are in games like Yakuza.
- 6:09So I would agree so long, mother-----er.
- 6:11But I will say, I would like to know more about Sergio.
- 6:14I would like to have more of him in a game.
- 6:18They could have done more with him.
- 6:19I think they kind of missed an opportunity here.
- 6:23They made him really shallow, too.
- 6:25We hear Saliari say that he's a smart person.
- 6:28And so you know that he could have had a lot of character
- 6:31death, but unfortunately, his time was cut short.
- 6:35Even the voice actor and the facial animations
- 6:38that they give him, and the way that other characters talk
- 6:41about him, there is a lot more depth to this character.
- 6:45And it's like maybe they had a plan for him
- 6:47and just decided to scrap a lot of it.
- 6:49But I agree.
- 6:50They made him really shallow, but there
- 6:52was so much more potential there.
- 6:54Honestly, I thought he was way more interesting than Morello.
- 6:57I was going to see that, too.
- 6:58Saliari, I think the quote was, he has more brains than Morello.
- 7:02So it's unfortunate that we didn't
- 7:05get to see more of him, which I also
- 7:07don't understand that if Morello and Saliari go way back,
- 7:12I don't understand where Sergio is.
- 7:13Why is he not in that picture?
- 7:15I really would have liked to see more.
- 7:16I think he's actually one of the most interesting characters
- 7:18in the game.
- 7:20And it's unfortunate that we didn't get to see more
- 7:22or know more about him.
- 7:23But either way, he's a mother-----er, so so long.
- 7:27So long.
- 7:29Well, what an explosive way to end scene one.
- 7:33It's somehow funnier because you said it again.
- 7:37Well, how'd they cut the first one out?
- 7:39What an explosive way to end scene one.
- 7:42Wait, we haven't even gotten to the actual part.
- 7:46Anything before scene two?
- 7:48Nope.
- 7:49Short scene for me.
- 7:50I don't know about you, but uh.
- 7:51Very short.
- 7:53With the war raging, Morello has been hiding.
- 7:56But the guys hear that he'll resurface at a gala.
- 7:59So they plan to attack him guns blazing.
- 8:02And Salieri wants every important figure in the city
- 8:05to know that he owns it.
- 8:07The city is Salieri's, and he wants Morello's execution
- 8:10to be brazen.
- 8:12And I have to say, the scene and Salieri
- 8:14were intense until his little fingers on the map
- 8:17did the little swoosh swoosh.
- 8:20And for whatever reason, that just killed it for me.
- 8:22Immediately, I'm not immersed anymore.
- 8:24It's very cutesy of a guy who's declaring war.
- 8:29But speaking of the scene, Salieri is not the same person.
- 8:32He is not level-headed like he was
- 8:34at the beginning of the game.
- 8:36What do you think about how he's changed so far?
- 8:40He's actually becoming more and more similar to Morello,
- 8:43because didn't he say Morello was really hot-headed,
- 8:45emotional, doesn't play the long game type of guy?
- 8:48Yet that's kind of him right now.
- 8:51And it's so funny, because he's a bit of a hypocrite.
- 8:53Yeah, and it's almost like, because he was trying
- 8:56to be the better one.
- 8:57He's saying, we're more classy than Morello.
- 9:00But he was losing to him.
- 9:02So I don't know what that says.
- 9:04But I think it's interesting.
- 9:07So they start shooting when they see Morello jumping
- 9:09into a car.
- 9:09And they chase him to the airport, where Morello manages
- 9:12to get into a plane.
- 9:14But they shoot the engines out while it's taking off.
- 9:16And it looks like it will crash.
- 9:18So they pursue it.
- 9:20At the crash site, they find Morello clinging to life.
- 9:23And to my surprise, Tommy ends him with no hesitation
- 9:28and maybe a few more bullets than are necessary.
- 9:31I was a little surprised by Tommy here.
- 9:34He also gives Morello a long look,
- 9:37very similar to the look he does with Carlos.
- 9:39But I don't think that he's thinking the same thing.
- 9:42Like with Carlos dying, he's probably saying
- 9:45that that could have been me.
- 9:47But with this one, I have a feeling that is it
- 9:49relief that I killed him and I'm not going to be like him.
- 9:54Or I don't know what exactly he's thinking.
- 9:57But it's very different than the look
- 10:00he gave Carlos when he saw Salieri smashing his head.
- 10:04And I don't know if it has anything
- 10:06to do with what he tells the detective in the next scene
- 10:08about Morello.
- 10:10Should we just jump into that?
- 10:12Or should we first mention we see Salieri's reaction
- 10:15to hearing that Morello is dead.
- 10:17And it seems kind of bittersweet to him.
- 10:20I mean, we know he wanted this guy dead, like dead dead.
- 10:23But now he's like, see you on the other side, Marco,
- 10:25looking at a picture of them and pouring one out.
- 10:28Right?
- 10:29He looks more sad than relieved that he's dead.
- 10:33I think it's one of those situations
- 10:34where you just miss the challenge.
- 10:37Because he realizes there's no more threat
- 10:40that Morello is posing.
- 10:42Once you strip that away, he probably just sees him
- 10:45as a former brother, and he's mourning that relationship.
- 10:49Because he no longer has to worry about what Morello can
- 10:52and will do to him.
- 10:54So once you take that part out of the equation,
- 10:57that's why he probably looks more sad than relieved
- 11:00that he no longer has to seek an all out war against him.
- 11:06Yeah, that makes sense.
- 11:07I don't know.
- 11:08I just wanted more of a reaction from him.
- 11:11It feels kind of underwhelming.
- 11:14It feels like he's too sad.
- 11:16I feel like because he had Tommy, Sam, and Polly
- 11:20be the ones who kill him, that he didn't do it himself.
- 11:23It made it a bit underwhelming.
- 11:25It's not sitting well with me that you have goons kill Luton.
- 11:29And it also makes it look like Morello is not
- 11:33as powerful as he is, that he can get hunted and killed
- 11:36so easily.
- 11:37Yeah, I think you're onto something.
- 11:39Because when they're at the start of the scene
- 11:41talking about Morello's hiding out,
- 11:43and they say he couldn't stay hidden for long because for a
- 11:46dawn to be respected, to be feared,
- 11:48they have to be visible.
- 11:50Sally Erie wasn't visible in this.
- 11:52I don't know.
- 11:53Yeah, he's a little bit off about it, for sure.
- 11:57Scene three, Tommy continues to chat with the detective
- 11:59and tells him about the war ending.
- 12:02The detective is a little bit angry at first.
- 12:05It turns out he's been searching for Tommy for three years.
- 12:07I'm assuming looking for Morello's killer.
- 12:10But Tommy says that he wants Sally Erie,
- 12:13the bigger fish, essentially, not Tommy.
- 12:15At this point, it becomes absolutely clear
- 12:18that Tommy is selling out Sally Erie.
- 12:20And he says, my family for the dawn.
- 12:23Tommy does say that he has the books,
- 12:25which was one of the questions I had last week about,
- 12:29oh, who has the books?
- 12:30Is he still with Tommy?
- 12:32And this is where it gets really interesting for me,
- 12:34because why does he have the books?
- 12:36Is it to cover his tracks that he didn't kill Frank?
- 12:40Because I guess why would him having the books equal,
- 12:44I let Frank go?
- 12:45I don't think it's that.
- 12:46I think it's always been an insurance policy for him
- 12:50to get out that it's smart to not immediately tell Sally Erie.
- 12:54But he's already had a few red flags.
- 12:56And he knows that one day if Sally Erie threatens to kill me
- 13:01or to take my family hostage, I have this one thing.
- 13:04The only thing I have that can one up Sally Erie
- 13:07are these books.
- 13:09And he probably is using those as a way
- 13:11to prevent himself or his wife and kids
- 13:15being threatened by Sally Erie.
- 13:18Yeah, and that's where my questions come up.
- 13:20Because if there's no reason to keep these to cover your tracks
- 13:23about I didn't kill Frank, then like you said,
- 13:26you're keeping them as leverage.
- 13:29And this is where I have issues with this game.
- 13:30And this is one of my only issues with this game.
- 13:32But at what point is Tommy realizing these things?
- 13:37At what point does Tommy realize I need insurance?
- 13:39Because we keep seeing him act shocked at things he sees.
- 13:44But if you're shocked, then why do you already
- 13:46have insurance in the books?
- 13:48Something just doesn't quite track for me with Tommy
- 13:51and when he realizes this isn't good.
- 13:55Because it's just now in this chapter
- 13:59when he starts talking about him realizing this.
- 14:02I mean, should we just get into that conversation?
- 14:05Let's keep going because I think I know what my answer is.
- 14:08But let me give you a moment to type it up.
- 14:09OK.
- 14:10All right, so we'll put a pin in that topic for a few minutes.
- 14:14Chronologically, in this conversation next
- 14:16is that the detective shows Tommy a picture of young Sally
- 14:20Erie and Morello who are with Don Papone.
- 14:23He says that Sally Erie was the best man at Morello's wedding
- 14:26and lets Tommy know that there is a lot of information
- 14:29that he's not aware of.
- 14:32He continues to tell Tommy that when Papone died,
- 14:35Sally Erie and Morello divvied up the city.
- 14:37And I have in parentheses, do you think Sally Erie and Morello
- 14:40killed him?
- 14:41But I think we already have been thinking that.
- 14:45And then he says it should have worked,
- 14:46but it didn't for them to divvy up the city.
- 14:48Again, if it's not because of power,
- 14:50it's because of a woman and maybe
- 14:52that he was the best man for the woman that he loved,
- 14:55but she decided to marry Morello or something like that.
- 15:01But I think because of that, he can never
- 15:03be satisfied with the land being divvied up.
- 15:06I don't know why it didn't work, other than it just
- 15:09seems like a stupid idea.
- 15:11Why would you put two people in charge of something
- 15:14that previously had one person in charge?
- 15:17I don't know.
- 15:18To me, it just seems like they did something rash
- 15:20if they did kill him.
- 15:21I mean, he drowned, so it seems pretty suspicious.
- 15:23I feel like we're missing a small piece of the backstory.
- 15:26I hope we get the backstory later.
- 15:29I want a whole game that's just the backstory,
- 15:31and then we could get more Sergio.
- 15:33Yes, I want more Sergio.
- 15:37And then going back to the conversation
- 15:38that we just put a pin in, Tommy continues and says,
- 15:43I got to thinking, what good was all of Morello's money
- 15:46if it couldn't protect him from a regular Joe like me?
- 15:49It only got him one thing, a great big bullseye.
- 15:52One day, I'm looking in the mirror
- 15:53and I start seeing a bullseye too.
- 15:55But I told myself I was smarter than Morello.
- 15:58It seems like it's just after Morello
- 16:01that he starts to realize, oh no, I
- 16:04could be any of these people in this world.
- 16:08But he's been doing things like keeping the books
- 16:10as an insurance policy as leverage.
- 16:13So I don't understand.
- 16:15I don't understand Tommy.
- 16:17I try to defend him, but I can't because I
- 16:20don't know if I understand him well enough.
- 16:22Because at what point do you think
- 16:26that he should have realized that he
- 16:29has a target on his head?
- 16:32And I'm thinking when Carlo was killed,
- 16:35that's the best time for him to realize, but he doesn't.
- 16:38The only thing I can justify is that it
- 16:41was happening so quickly that he never
- 16:43had time to really digest everything was happening.
- 16:46And it was only until when Morello died
- 16:49and the war was over that he had time
- 16:51to reflect about what's going on.
- 16:53That could be.
- 16:54And maybe he just held the books and didn't know why.
- 16:59And it was just an internal thing
- 17:00he hadn't really processed yet.
- 17:02I mean, that's really all I can think is, like you said,
- 17:04he just had more time after the war was over.
- 17:07But it's clear that paranoia is starting to get to Tommy.
- 17:11And he also talks about Sam and Polly
- 17:13and says that you're wondering if your best friend is
- 17:15hungry enough to betray you.
- 17:17What did you think of that line?
- 17:19That's what I'm questioning is because very similar
- 17:23to maybe how Salieri felt with Morello
- 17:26that he started to get paranoid and say that, oh,
- 17:30is Morello going to kill me?
- 17:31Is he plotting something?
- 17:32And they were like brothers.
- 17:34And right now, Tommy, Polly, and Sam are like his brothers.
- 17:37So maybe he's starting to be more and more similar to Salieri
- 17:43by being paranoid.
- 17:46I think you're right, though.
- 17:47I think that might be the missing piece with the Morello
- 17:49Salieri backstory is just the paranoia of that lifestyle.
- 17:53You don't know who's going to be gunning for you at what point.
- 17:56If Tommy's feeling that, then I'm sure we're feeling it
- 17:59at some point, too.
- 18:00So maybe that's the missing link.
- 18:02And kind of going back into more of that paranoia,
- 18:05we know loyalty is a theme with the mafia.
- 18:08And I'm going to jump ahead because Salieri has a lesson
- 18:11that he teaches Tommy when they are doing their collections
- 18:15and Salieri finds that Polly's is a bit smaller.
- 18:20And Tommy's like, oh, I'm going to cover his tab.
- 18:23But then immediately, Salieri is like, don't be loyal to Polly.
- 18:28Yet he's pretty much demanding loyalty from everyone.
- 18:33So it's a bit of a hypocrite.
- 18:34But that lesson may be the lesson that he pretty much
- 18:39got when he and Morello were brothers.
- 18:43But also, Tommy's drinking again right in front of Salieri.
- 18:48He pours himself a glass and drinks it.
- 18:52Yeah.
- 18:53Is this just a plot hole?
- 18:55Salieri is the one that made Sarah threaten to leave him
- 18:58so that he would stop drinking.
- 19:00And now he's drinking right in front of Salieri.
- 19:02I don't get it.
- 19:04I didn't even think much of it until you mentioned it.
- 19:07And the way the camera has it is that it wants you
- 19:10to know he's drinking again.
- 19:11Yeah.
- 19:12It's weird.
- 19:13I went back and I looked again.
- 19:15And at first, it's like, oh, maybe he's
- 19:16pouring Salieri a drink.
- 19:17And then you realize, nope, there's two glasses.
- 19:19And then he goes around to the other side of the table
- 19:22and drinks it.
- 19:23Yeah.
- 19:24I feel like this is a plot hole.
- 19:27Salieri tells Tommy that a guy named Turnbill,
- 19:29a candidate for governor, is running on an anti-mafia
- 19:32platform and sends Tommy to assassinate him now.
- 19:36After a lot of unnecessary gameplay, Tommy succeeds.
- 19:40Though things do get quite hairy.
- 19:42And he eventually returns home.
- 19:45Any comments on this whole Turnbill scene?
- 19:48One sentence covers it.
- 19:49Tommy kills Turnbill.
- 19:52Yeah.
- 19:53That was about like an hour section.
- 19:55Right?
- 19:57And why did a person need to go drop off a gun?
- 19:59I'm confused why Tommy couldn't just bring the gun.
- 20:01It's not like he walked through.
- 20:02Exactly.
- 20:03It's not like he took a bus to get there.
- 20:06At home, again, Sarah asked Tommy if he's heard of Turnbill.
- 20:09I guess she's reading about his assassination in the paper.
- 20:12And Tommy says that he heard he was corrupt.
- 20:15And Sarah responds.
- 20:16Says in the paper he's going to be remembered for fighting
- 20:19to pass the 19th Amendment.
- 20:21Put his whole career on the line for it.
- 20:24Which one was that again?
- 20:28Woman's suffrage, you idiot.
- 20:30He gave me the right to vote, Tom.
- 20:34Gave it to his wife and six daughters, too.
- 20:37And then she ends it by saying, guess nobody's just one thing,
- 20:40are they?
- 20:41And that feels like a deep line.
- 20:43Yeah, why doesn't Sarah know that he killed them?
- 20:47I think she suspects it.
- 20:48And I think that's why she said, guess nobody's just one thing,
- 20:51are they?
- 20:53Easily Tommy could have done this.
- 20:55And then she says, don't do anything you don't
- 20:58want to be remembered for.
- 21:00And so I think she's kind of like, oh no,
- 21:03how far is this going?
- 21:04This is more intense than anything I've seen in the mafia.
- 21:08And Tommy responds, probably too late for that.
- 21:11Do you think that's part of the reason why he's selling out
- 21:14Salieri?
- 21:14He doesn't like who he is anymore?
- 21:17And I think that also is the moment where he's like,
- 21:21you know, these books can come in handy.
- 21:23That it might be too late for me to get out of this or to leave,
- 21:29but it's not too late for me to start using these books as a way
- 21:32and the opportunity I get.
- 21:34It's a way that I can try to get us safer.
- 21:37And I'm thinking that this might be the moment, or if not,
- 21:41close to one of the breaking points.
- 21:44I think Sarah kind of knows that things are going downhill.
- 21:48And she helps Tommy realize that a little bit.
- 21:52I think next episode will be long.
- 21:53It'll be the final gameplay part, the last one
- 21:56before the summary.
- 21:57This episode was a lot of buildup,
- 22:00probably to things that we're going
- 22:02to see in the final section of gameplay.
- 22:03So I'm excited for that one.
- 22:06But is there anything else that you have on this episode?
- 22:09Oh, we didn't even do a salon for Morello.
- 22:12Ha!
- 22:13Wow, that's how forgettable his character is.
- 22:15And Turnville, you do.
- 22:18Who cares about Turnville?
- 22:20We don't know him.
- 22:21I mean, we'll call him a mother neutral,
- 22:23because we know he was a bad guy, but he also apparently helped
- 22:27us get the whatever amendment.
- 22:30The 19th.
- 22:31Yes, so neutral, but Morello, obviously, mother-----er.
- 22:35Yeah, mother-----er.
- 22:36He shot a guy he was torturing because he
- 22:38wouldn't stop crying.
- 22:40Mm-hmm.
- 22:41Done.
- 22:43I didn't see any redeeming qualities from him.
- 22:45I think that's the issue with this game,
- 22:47is we don't see redeeming qualities.
- 22:49Besides Tommy and Salieri, we don't get much of a character
- 22:56death in it.
- 22:56And I get it.
- 22:58We follow Tommy.
- 22:59We're playing from Tommy's point of view.
- 23:01But I would love to get some more,
- 23:03I don't know, what exactly, how we would get more character
- 23:06death in them.
- 23:07Well, yeah, I feel like the detective has more depth
- 23:11than Salieri and Morello.
- 23:13I think the detective is more interesting than the two main
- 23:17villains.
- 23:18Or Sergio.
- 23:19Sergio was more interesting.
- 23:21So interesting, such a complex individual.
- 23:24You can tell that he's complex just by one scene with him.
- 23:29Exactly.
- 23:30I am disappointed in Salieri and Morello's characters.
- 23:33I feel like they're very, just copy paste, standard.
- 23:39They're not very interesting.
- 23:41Yeah.
- 23:42So yeah, I guess so long, mother-
- 23:43****er.
- 23:44You're kind of boring.
- 23:45Although you did beat that guy's head with a tire iron.
- 23:48That was mildly interesting.
- 23:51Anything else?
- 23:52Do we forget?
- 23:53Did anyone else die?
- 23:55No, but we don't know where Ralphie is.
- 23:58Yeah, what happened to Ralphie?
- 24:00Why do you say it like that?
- 24:02We have to keep it now.
- 24:05What happened to him?
- 24:06He's gone.
- 24:07He's gone.
- 24:08I don't know.
- 24:08I hope he's OK.
- 24:11Another useless character in this game.
- 24:13Yeah.
- 24:15Should we do PP's and near misses?
- 24:17Yeah.
- 24:22Well, there is one that you clearly ran over him,
- 24:25but nothing happened.
- 24:27And then there's another one that he just flew out of the way,
- 24:30but I don't even know if you were even close to him.
- 24:32So I'm going to say two PP's?
- 24:35I did one, because you're right.
- 24:37There is a section where clearly he would have been deceased.
- 24:43But the game just didn't register.
- 24:46And then the other ones, there was one where another car hit
- 24:49him into my car.
- 24:51So I didn't count that one.
- 24:54Not your fault.
- 24:55I landed on one PP.
- 24:56There was only one person.
- 24:57I would have flattened had the game reacted appropriately.
- 25:01I think there's like two near misses.
- 25:04Were there more?
- 25:06I was just about to say I need to count up the tallies real quick.
- 25:10Oh my god.
- 25:11How many?
- 25:121, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15.
- 25:26What?
- 25:27Holy cow.
- 25:28I was going to say like four, and you're like 15.
- 25:31I think you lose today.
- 25:35I'm sorry.
- 25:36We still have one more part left.
- 25:38Anything else, or should we end the episode?
- 25:41No, I think we're good.
- 25:44So let's do a Dacity on one.
