Transcript
- 0:25Speaker 1: Get into Gate episode two hundred and seventy eight. I
- 0:29Speaker 1: love it when they rhyme Mitch and Maddie. Here, we
- 0:32Speaker 1: need to talk some more Atlantis.
- 0:34Speaker 2: I haven't done three or oh oh, that was very smooth.
- 0:37Speaker 2: Just there you're doing that whole thing with my microphone off,
- 0:40Speaker 2: and I was like, God, have I done three already?
- 0:43Speaker 1: You're good mate? Look at you. We work.
- 0:45Speaker 3: You know.
- 0:45Speaker 1: It's like I do this for a living. Not well,
- 0:48Speaker 1: might I add, not well, but I do do it.
- 0:52Speaker 1: We are here to talk about season number four, episode
- 0:56Speaker 1: number eight of Stargate at and to the seer Seer,
- 1:02Speaker 1: I think the first time I ever come across that word.
- 1:05Speaker 1: Did you ever read the books animals? You're aware of animals.
- 1:09Speaker 1: I'm aware of the TV show.
- 1:11Speaker 2: I don't know that I ever read the book.
- 1:12Speaker 1: That's okay. I'm a watcher. You are a watching me.
- 1:16Speaker 1: You know the book changed some of the law, and
- 1:19Speaker 1: you know it was made on a shoestring budget, and
- 1:21Speaker 1: you were dealing with a concept where humans physically transform
- 1:26Speaker 1: into animals. So like you know in the books, let's
- 1:29Speaker 1: say it takes two minutes to properly morph into into
- 1:32Speaker 1: animal or reason the show, they did it in about
- 1:34Speaker 1: two and a half seconds. Yeah, and I think it's like, well,
- 1:36Speaker 1: it's a two and a half seconds, so the bad
- 1:37Speaker 1: CGI doesn't stand out for that long, you know. Yeah,
- 1:40Speaker 1: and we've got to acquire the DNA first. Yes, so
- 1:43Speaker 1: we're going to deal with real world animals, and then
- 1:44Speaker 1: we're going to have our jackets transform into like a
- 1:46Speaker 1: tiger coat, which again also didn't work in the books.
- 1:49Speaker 1: But I move on, and I do wait.
- 1:51Speaker 2: For I don't want a bunch of naked kids running around.
- 1:53Speaker 1: No, they okay, even more confusing a so I go
- 1:56Speaker 1: from an early tangent. They were allowed like leotards and
- 2:00Speaker 1: like skin tight outfits that works, so they could get
- 2:02Speaker 1: around in like you know, gymnastics were almost and that
- 2:05Speaker 1: would successfully morph into a bird or whatever. But realistically
- 2:09Speaker 1: they should have been nude, which which Ashmore was in
- 2:12Speaker 1: that show. Do you remember the other one, Sean or Aaron?
- 2:14Speaker 1: I want to say Aaron. Okay, no, that might be
- 2:18Speaker 1: because I believe research.
- 2:19Speaker 2: I believe friend of the show, Mike, my friend Mike.
- 2:22Speaker 2: He he is a big fan wink wink of Sewan
- 2:25Speaker 2: Ashmore and to the point where I think, you know,
- 2:28Speaker 2: people used to think he looked like him as well,
- 2:30Speaker 2: but yeah, I think he would very much enjoy Sewn
- 2:32Speaker 2: Ashmore in a in a leotard.
- 2:34Speaker 1: It was Sewn Ashmore. They I mean, they did use
- 2:36Speaker 1: Jake ash Moore a one stage. There is a there
- 2:38Speaker 1: is a doubling situation, so I knew that they were
- 2:40Speaker 1: both in there. But Aaron, what I say, j Jake
- 2:43Speaker 1: is the character, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I think.
- 2:46Speaker 2: I saw somewhere where they said Sean Ashmore sci fi
- 2:51Speaker 2: Aaron Ashmore like fantasy.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Superhero or something.
- 2:54Speaker 2: Well, I guess he was because Sean was Iceman, but
- 2:58Speaker 2: then like Aaron was Olsen.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Yeah, although I did see something on Michael Rosenbaum's podcast
- 3:04Speaker 1: recently he had well they were both on the show, yeah,
- 3:08Speaker 1: but he had Aaron ashe and they were talking about
- 3:10Speaker 1: the fact that did he get wiped out at some
- 3:12Speaker 1: point and it was basically like, oh, you were kind
- 3:13Speaker 1: of Jimmy Olsen but not really, like you didn't get
- 3:15Speaker 1: to do all the cool Jimmy Olsen things, and I
- 3:18Speaker 1: don't know, it was something very ridicular.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Yeah, but also Sean was on in a previous seasons
- 3:22Speaker 2: like the bad Guy of the Week, so I think
- 3:24Speaker 2: I met him say, that's why he didn't think you'd
- 3:25Speaker 2: get casts.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Yeah, well we got one actor that's certainly reprising a
- 3:29Speaker 1: role and a secondary role within Atlantis. They played multiple roles,
- 3:33Speaker 1: and we're going to talk about that when we talk
- 3:34Speaker 1: about the seer, which, yeah, like I said that there
- 3:38Speaker 1: was there's like a race of characters in that Animal's thing,
- 3:41Speaker 1: and they referred to someone as a I guess as
- 3:44Speaker 1: a seer. Yeah, they saw things. They were a se
- 3:47Speaker 1: because they were old wise, you know, you know, veterans,
- 3:51Speaker 1: the elderly of a particular race. But I read it
- 3:53Speaker 1: as seer like like chandelier, Like, well, yeah, they're like
- 3:57Speaker 1: you're going to see a piece of state scar. Yeah. Almost,
- 4:02Speaker 1: That's how it sounded as I read it, because I've
- 4:04Speaker 1: never heard of the terms the see earth yea. And
- 4:06Speaker 1: also it just looks weird. It's just an R opposed
- 4:08Speaker 1: to an er on the end of You're a Dreamer. Yes,
- 4:11Speaker 1: this would be c if it was her with three e's. Again, look,
- 4:15Speaker 1: it would look weird. So we'll see dash ear. I
- 4:18Speaker 1: can understand what I think.
- 4:18Speaker 2: My first introduction to it was charmed in like season
- 4:21Speaker 2: four with Julia McMahon, and he was like the big
- 4:24Speaker 2: bad and he had a seer and she could like
- 4:26Speaker 2: she would see the future. She had premonitions and stuff
- 4:28Speaker 2: like that, and she could see the future.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Do you mc mart a bad guy? You say? Interesting?
- 4:32Speaker 1: And then we could pull that off. Balthas are the demon.
- 4:34Speaker 1: I'm joking, he like, I feel like he always plays
- 4:36Speaker 1: bad guys. He's just got that look right.
- 4:38Speaker 2: What was the other show we did, n Nip Tuck?
- 4:40Speaker 2: I think he wasn't a great person in that either.
- 4:42Speaker 1: And of course famously I mean a great doctor Durman
- 4:46Speaker 1: and otherwise excellent also fantastic four to two movie franchise.
- 4:50Speaker 2: I'll be interested to see how that that comment ages
- 4:53Speaker 2: in the next what six months?
- 4:56Speaker 1: Well, yeah, will he be the definitive doctor to do there?
- 5:01Speaker 1: As better than that fan forcetic crap that that slot.
- 5:05Speaker 1: They've all had their all their issues, haven't they. We
- 5:09Speaker 1: shall see. Okay, got to say that correctly. Okay, sorry,
- 5:12Speaker 1: we shall see, Thank you. Good. The Seer Taylor seeks
- 5:19Speaker 1: help from a seer in her search for her lost people,
- 5:22Speaker 1: as the Wraith offer their help in stopping replicators from
- 5:25Speaker 1: destroying Cubans throughout the galaxy.
- 5:29Speaker 2: The irony of this episode that he could see the
- 5:33Speaker 2: future and im.
- 5:35Speaker 1: This episode what It's funny. It's almost like the people
- 5:38Speaker 1: writing that little synopsis forgot that the wraiths were in there. Yeah,
- 5:41Speaker 1: as well two bouts of like wraith ships that we
- 5:43Speaker 1: get old Mates still yet without a name, without a fall.
- 5:46Speaker 2: That never get Yeah, he's definitely don't don't worry, don't
- 5:49Speaker 2: get hung up on that.
- 5:49Speaker 1: He's not going to get a name. Well, but but
- 5:52Speaker 1: he's back with old mate playing him. Its crystal idol hauling, yes, houling, yes,
- 5:58Speaker 1: hauling with the one I was struggling with. Yeah, so yeah,
- 6:02Speaker 1: the irony. I was surprised that, oh, sorry.
- 6:06Speaker 2: Come on mate, come on, we're doing a thing here,
- 6:09Speaker 2: We're doing a thing. Don't maybe cut audio for nothing.
- 6:18Speaker 4: A great guy love match. Okay, what are you saying?
- 6:23Speaker 1: You just so happened to play that one? Okay, I'm
- 6:27Speaker 1: doing here little fingers over there. Yeah. I was surprised
- 6:32Speaker 1: that it had all the makings of being a story
- 6:36Speaker 1: of the week Old School SG one star where they
- 6:39Speaker 1: go somewhere and then there's something fascinating about that world
- 6:42Speaker 1: and they kind of get embroiled because of said thing
- 6:44Speaker 1: and this one being a seer, they show up someone
- 6:47Speaker 1: who's got some some premonition skills, and that that would
- 6:51Speaker 1: somehow work against the Maybe this guy has known they
- 6:53Speaker 1: were coming, he's been using that as some kind of
- 6:55Speaker 1: you know, he's been plotting. Maybe he has interest in Atlantis,
- 6:58Speaker 1: whatever it might be. It just felt maybe because we
- 7:00Speaker 1: were back on a you know, otherwise forests, you know,
- 7:03Speaker 1: outdoors ey typing, rather than a real sci fi heavy
- 7:07Speaker 1: advanced civilization alien group, that it surprised me that it
- 7:12Speaker 1: took a quick turn. And I guess more so it
- 7:14Speaker 1: would have been more so if I hadn't have seen
- 7:16Speaker 1: the previously on, Like the previous one really said, Hey,
- 7:19Speaker 1: these three absolutely unrelated things, they are going to be
- 7:23Speaker 1: told together in a story. So yeah, in saying that,
- 7:27Speaker 1: I think once the story began, I just paid attention
- 7:30Speaker 1: to that kind of forgot about the previously on, And
- 7:32Speaker 1: so I was kind of surprised when all of a
- 7:33Speaker 1: sudden it had this pivots probably too strong a word,
- 7:36Speaker 1: but still pivot towards being Oh, this has actually got
- 7:39Speaker 1: to do with the wraith. Oh, this has actually got
- 7:40Speaker 1: to do with the replicators. Oh, it's also got to
- 7:42Speaker 1: do with that wraith that John had a little packed
- 7:45Speaker 1: with for one episode, and that was last season, and
- 7:47Speaker 1: Here we Go was sort of picking up on all
- 7:48Speaker 1: of those threads, and it's almost like the sea became
- 7:52Speaker 1: redundant within his own story that was named after him.
- 7:56Speaker 1: Like if he hadn't had a they said, like a cancer, right,
- 8:01Speaker 1: if he didn't have that, there would be no reason
- 8:04Speaker 1: for him to be in this In the rest of
- 8:05Speaker 1: this episode written something.
- 8:07Speaker 2: I still maintained it in it. In the same way
- 8:10Speaker 2: this universe has exploding tumors. I reckon, this tumor is
- 8:13Speaker 2: what gave him his powers. I reckon, that's what it was.
- 8:16Speaker 1: He wasn't just born with it, like they was saying,
- 8:18Speaker 1: he's one in a million or probably more.
- 8:20Speaker 2: Mate, consider yourself lucky that when I watched this episode,
- 8:23Speaker 2: I was so tired because there was still that that
- 8:26Speaker 2: two percent in me that wanted to make a super
- 8:29Speaker 2: cut to Lady Gargars born this way when they said
- 8:31Speaker 2: that line about.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Him being born this way. I mean, I can play
- 8:36Speaker 1: it out, pause up.
- 8:40Speaker 2: And interestingly that you sort of picked up on that
- 8:43Speaker 2: because I guess, out of the two of us, I'm
- 8:45Speaker 2: the seer and that I kind of know the future
- 8:47Speaker 2: of what's happening.
- 8:48Speaker 1: Yeah, we're not spoil anything for me, you know exactly
- 8:50Speaker 1: what's coming.
- 8:51Speaker 2: Well, not not exactly, because I can really forgot about
- 8:53Speaker 2: this episode, but it might have been in the auto
- 8:55Speaker 2: commentary for this episode or maybe next weeks that I
- 8:58Speaker 2: may have already seen. They did actually reference because Joe
- 9:03Speaker 2: and Paul took over as showrunners and they had a
- 9:05Speaker 2: very specific idea for this season in that it wasn't
- 9:09Speaker 2: going to be a lot of standalone episodes. It was
- 9:11Speaker 2: going to be an arc and things were going to build,
- 9:14Speaker 2: not to be confused with last season's horrible episode. The arc.
- 9:18Speaker 1: It was going to build.
- 9:19Speaker 2: So every episode this season they wanted it to have
- 9:23Speaker 2: just a little a little sprinkle or something to them
- 9:26Speaker 2: that would eventually culminate in something else. So everything in
- 9:30Speaker 2: every episode has some kind of illusion or prelude or
- 9:35Speaker 2: payoff in a in a later episode. Obviously, for this one,
- 9:39Speaker 2: the one thing that we never got resolution to is
- 9:44Speaker 2: we still never all of his premonitions came true, except
- 9:47Speaker 2: for the one that he saw of Atlantis being destroyed.
- 9:50Speaker 2: So that's still the hanging, you know, sort of Damicle's
- 9:54Speaker 2: kind of thing that sort of we may or may
- 9:57Speaker 2: not get a payoff on in some other episode.
- 10:01Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of which movie is now that
- 10:03Speaker 1: reminds me that where they well, I guess it was
- 10:06Speaker 1: kind of the did you ever see Minority Report? Tom Cruise,
- 10:09Speaker 1: Steven Spielberg.
- 10:10Speaker 2: I don't think all in one sitting. I think I've
- 10:12Speaker 2: seen chunks of it, but I don't know that I've
- 10:14Speaker 2: ever sat down and watched it from beginning to end.
- 10:16Speaker 1: I mean, let's carve out another movie night that we've
- 10:18Speaker 1: got to be, like movie not number thirty seven, that
- 10:20Speaker 1: we've got to have which can definitely watch that.
- 10:21Speaker 2: I've been waiting three years for you to let ye
- 10:23Speaker 2: James Bond Field, Yeah, sure, yes, that's just if anyone
- 10:27Speaker 2: who's listening. Yes, that's the thing is, Mitch, I've never
- 10:29Speaker 2: seen a James Bond film except for the one that
- 10:31Speaker 2: you miss because in Royal right, he wants me to
- 10:34Speaker 2: watch him in a very specific order, but I'm not
- 10:37Speaker 2: allowed to watch them on my own.
- 10:39Speaker 1: I have to watch them with them so that he
- 10:41Speaker 1: can watch me watch them.
- 10:43Speaker 2: At least we did Casino Royale, and then he moved
- 10:46Speaker 2: and had his fourth child, and he's got the point
- 10:49Speaker 2: now where he's like, oh, we should probably go back
- 10:51Speaker 2: to the start and start again.
- 10:52Speaker 1: Well, ye're going to the start, but that's not the start, bro.
- 10:54Speaker 1: I want you to go. You sort of like with
- 10:57Speaker 1: what your appetite. If there was an appetit to wet
- 11:01Speaker 1: with James Bond, and I'd argue there wouldn't be, and
- 11:04Speaker 1: there wasn't. But it's like, yeah, good, we're giving you
- 11:06Speaker 1: a taste of the modern I think one idea I
- 11:08Speaker 1: had was to watch the Daniel Craig ones. This is
- 11:12Speaker 1: when we I was gonna say when we had this idea.
- 11:14Speaker 1: I think initially when this idea came about was before
- 11:18Speaker 1: no time that Eye came out, which was December twenty
- 11:20Speaker 1: twenty one, but then we really didn't think about it
- 11:22Speaker 1: for probably another twelve months. My initial idea was to
- 11:24Speaker 1: watch the old ones, sorry, watch the new ones, then
- 11:28Speaker 1: go back watch them from the beginning of Connery from
- 11:31Speaker 1: nineteen sixty two all the way through to the end
- 11:34Speaker 1: of Pierce Brozen, and then maybe rewatched Daniel Craig one.
- 11:38Speaker 1: You know me, whether you watch them with a different
- 11:41Speaker 1: eye now that you can appreciate how it was different,
- 11:43Speaker 1: but also how they referenced the old.
- 11:44Speaker 2: Stime because you know me because in the same way
- 11:45Speaker 2: Laris got you in a couple of weeks ago. You
- 11:48Speaker 2: knew that, Okay, Daniel Craig in little blue trunks coming
- 11:51Speaker 2: out of the ocean. That's how we're going to get
- 11:53Speaker 2: high pitched. I think you got everybody that and the
- 11:55Speaker 2: what is it, the the knotted rope and the chair.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for different reasons though, yeah, absolutely, yeah. We
- 12:02Speaker 1: all know where we were when we saw that for
- 12:03Speaker 1: the first time. Oh yeah, you're on my couch, which
- 12:05Speaker 1: is very strange. But there was no cushion, which is
- 12:08Speaker 1: really weird.
- 12:09Speaker 2: I was getting really really concerned, but I think especially
- 12:12Speaker 2: just had a tire knots in the curtains.
- 12:14Speaker 1: I was like, what's going on here. There's something in
- 12:16Speaker 1: Minority Report where there is a premonition and then there
- 12:20Speaker 1: is like falsified premonitions in a way, and that probably
- 12:24Speaker 1: doesn't make sense without context, but I think that's what
- 12:27Speaker 1: it was reminding of you just saying because I watched
- 12:29Speaker 1: this episode, I'm like, oh, they averted it, which they
- 12:32Speaker 1: do kind of hint at going it's not those saying
- 12:34Speaker 1: oh the future is, you know, fluid and ever changing,
- 12:37Speaker 1: but it's like, what was the I don't remember the
- 12:40Speaker 1: specific line but it was kind of like, it is
- 12:42Speaker 1: the future is formed. It's like, bro, I got you,
- 12:46Speaker 1: I got you. Thanks buddy, you're telling me.
- 12:48Speaker 4: That the future is predetermined, But I have always believed
- 12:51Speaker 4: that the future is what you make it. Perhaps both
- 12:54Speaker 4: are true. Perhaps the future is predetermined by the character
- 12:58Speaker 4: of those who's shape it.
- 13:00Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's it is a great line. Does sort
- 13:04Speaker 1: of merge both of those worlds, because when he first
- 13:07Speaker 1: said that, like, oh, I think both are true, and
- 13:09Speaker 1: I'm like, they can't. They contradict each other. You can't
- 13:11Speaker 1: say that it's completely open, but it's also absolutely planned
- 13:14Speaker 1: and predetermined. But when you get well, okay, it does
- 13:18Speaker 1: represent both, which makes it a cop out. But I
- 13:20Speaker 1: do like the way that line sounds. Yeah it is
- 13:23Speaker 1: it is predetermined by those that are making it. It's like, yeah, yes,
- 13:27Speaker 1: you are right.
- 13:28Speaker 2: Because we've kind of had this already in SG one,
- 13:30Speaker 2: when Jonas had the ability to see the few he
- 13:33Speaker 2: got those little future flashes, and I think his future
- 13:35Speaker 2: flashes were tumor as well.
- 13:36Speaker 1: Weren't they did? He have nothing question mark?
- 13:41Speaker 2: And I think a lot of the premise of that
- 13:43Speaker 2: episode is what if what we're doing is the cause
- 13:47Speaker 2: of it like the causality loop predestination paradox kind of situation.
- 13:51Speaker 2: And I think Carter does hint at that at a
- 13:54Speaker 2: certain point and she said, you know, I think her
- 13:56Speaker 2: and John had the conversation where She's like, I just
- 13:58Speaker 2: have to make decisions as if he's not here, because
- 14:02Speaker 2: then I'm going to second guess what I'm doing.
- 14:03Speaker 1: And that's a.
- 14:04Speaker 2: Pretty solid sort of sci fi trope at this point
- 14:06Speaker 2: that of everybody does. But yeah, the only thing and
- 14:09Speaker 2: obviously because I know the future, there was the line
- 14:13Speaker 2: where you know, I think Carter it was was talking
- 14:15Speaker 2: to the sea and he and she says, have any
- 14:17Speaker 2: of your visions never come to pass? And he says no.
- 14:22Speaker 2: The only difference is they have context. By the time
- 14:26Speaker 2: that comes to pass, they have context. Like obviously when
- 14:29Speaker 2: he saw the ambush with the Wraith, he didn't see
- 14:33Speaker 2: the context of it and didn't see that we had
- 14:35Speaker 2: the jumpers and all that kind of stuff. And I
- 14:36Speaker 2: think John even said, well, we were going to do
- 14:38Speaker 2: that anyway, like we knew it was a trap. We
- 14:40Speaker 2: were of course going to use our magic invisible jumpers
- 14:43Speaker 2: to give us that.
- 14:44Speaker 1: I like that those the shields or the cloak also
- 14:49Speaker 1: manages to hide wind.
- 14:51Speaker 2: And sound and sound Star Trek cloaks don't even do that.
- 14:54Speaker 1: I don't mind the idea of sound for some reason.
- 14:56Speaker 1: I think I've been okay with that because we've clearly
- 14:58Speaker 1: seen that in the past. But there was such an
- 15:00Speaker 1: obvious change. They were out there, it was dead still,
- 15:03Speaker 1: and then he's you're supposed to come alone? Yeah, well,
- 15:05Speaker 1: and then the jumpers revealed themselves, and then it goes
- 15:08Speaker 1: back to unnamed Wraith with the four letter name and
- 15:12Speaker 1: it just and his long wraith hair is Yeah, I'm like,
- 15:16Speaker 1: where did that wind come from?
- 15:17Speaker 5: Oh?
- 15:17Speaker 1: From the engines that were previously cloaked that.
- 15:20Speaker 2: It turns out the cloak shield is kind of like
- 15:22Speaker 2: it's like a hot box. It's it's like when someone
- 15:23Speaker 2: wants to unlive themselves and they get the tailpipe from
- 15:28Speaker 2: the car and put it into their own thing. They're
- 15:30Speaker 2: just they're just hot boxing themselves, breathing their own air
- 15:33Speaker 2: until the shields go down.
- 15:34Speaker 1: And then all the exhausts all of a sudden. Yeah, yeah,
- 15:38Speaker 1: you were.
- 15:39Speaker 2: You were making some movie references before.
- 15:41Speaker 1: That doesn't sound like me, mate.
- 15:43Speaker 2: You never know, especially not James Bond or animals. You've
- 15:47Speaker 2: never done that before.
- 15:48Speaker 1: Yeah, Lord of the Rings.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Yeah, well funny you say that. Did you recognize the
- 15:56Speaker 2: seer Davos? Did he sound familiar to you? Did he
- 15:59Speaker 2: look for you at all?
- 16:00Speaker 1: Because the first shot we get of him is quite wide,
- 16:03Speaker 1: and I was watching it on my laptop screen so
- 16:05Speaker 1: a little bit smaller than the TV, and my eyes
- 16:08Speaker 1: are a bit funny at the moment.
- 16:09Speaker 2: And I was done, all right, everybody. You know he's
- 16:11Speaker 2: got a pretty bit. He's got two very large televisions.
- 16:15Speaker 1: It's not curved anymore.
- 16:16Speaker 2: You know, his head to make some cutbacks so he
- 16:19Speaker 2: doesn't have the large curved TV anymore.
- 16:21Speaker 1: Not all were cracked up to be. I could see
- 16:24Speaker 1: things better when I was doing dishes at the kitchen
- 16:26Speaker 1: when I was side on now not so much.
- 16:29Speaker 2: You pay for a cleaner, so you don't need to
- 16:31Speaker 2: do that.
- 16:34Speaker 1: Occasionally. Context. Where's the buttonsm getting roasted? Yeah?
- 16:41Speaker 2: Context matters for that comment, christ I.
- 16:44Speaker 1: Don't know the context helped. So relatable, that's what content
- 16:48Speaker 1: hashtag relatable. My god, take a breather. And so I
- 16:54Speaker 1: didn't see his face, but I'm hearing his voice and
- 16:56Speaker 1: I thought, I reckon this, this will be some kind
- 16:59Speaker 1: of stunt cast a little bit, Yeah, this will be
- 17:01Speaker 1: someone that I recognize, and then he pops up and
- 17:03Speaker 1: I didn't recognize him. And the more I watched it,
- 17:06Speaker 1: I was like, how did we not get someone like
- 17:08Speaker 1: you F grade famous to play this role? Because he's
- 17:12Speaker 1: got a great voice. Yes, is this somebody? And do
- 17:15Speaker 1: I not know? But I couldn't pick anything. He does
- 17:17Speaker 1: a lot of voice work.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Something that I think Brendan probably would have picked up
- 17:20Speaker 2: straight away is he plays Alfred in the Arkham Knight
- 17:24Speaker 2: game series Back Arkham Knight. He's also done voices in
- 17:28Speaker 2: Mass Effect two. He was physically in Girl with the
- 17:32Speaker 2: Dragon Tattoo, Titanic Eragon. He also voices Ian Fleming in
- 17:39Speaker 2: the Bond Radio plays on the BBC, and I think
- 17:43Speaker 2: he directs them as well. And he was the voice
- 17:46Speaker 2: of Gandalf in Lord of the Rings Conquest.
- 17:51Speaker 1: Which I'm imagining is a video game. So I wouldn't
- 17:54Speaker 1: have played that. Yes, okay, I thought you were going
- 17:56Speaker 1: to say that he was a particular character in the
- 17:58Speaker 1: live action stuff, and I would have been like, how
- 18:01Speaker 1: did I not see that?
- 18:03Speaker 2: I just thought that was some great overlap that he was.
- 18:05Speaker 2: He does a lot of bond stuff and a Lord
- 18:07Speaker 2: of the Ring stuff.
- 18:07Speaker 1: So he's ticking a lot of boxes for me. But
- 18:09Speaker 1: I've not seen any of it.
- 18:11Speaker 2: I guess because a lot it's video game content. It's
- 18:12Speaker 2: not it's not quite up here. I've said content twice.
- 18:16Speaker 1: I know you hate that word, so just don't follow
- 18:18Speaker 1: it up with creator. Only CECS a chip mate and
- 18:24Speaker 1: superior to Dorito's. I'll give you that.
- 18:28Speaker 2: No, we've had this discussion we have does mean you
- 18:30Speaker 2: won the I've tested it.
- 18:31Speaker 1: I I market tested it with people in this very
- 18:34Speaker 1: bi went in thinking CC's were better. You tested it
- 18:36Speaker 1: and came out that ccs were better.
- 18:37Speaker 2: No, no, no, I tested people around this building and CCS
- 18:40Speaker 2: came out superior.
- 18:41Speaker 1: Well, I think we've talked about us doing that, so
- 18:43Speaker 1: maybe maybe an extracord.
- 18:45Speaker 2: When when court chips aren't six dollars a bag, we
- 18:47Speaker 2: will absolutely do that.
- 18:49Speaker 1: Come on, manufacturers, or probably more so supermarkets, get your
- 18:54Speaker 1: hand off it. Yeah, okay, a.
- 18:55Speaker 2: Block of cabrig chocol for eight dollars, get absolutely And
- 18:59Speaker 2: then they trying to two for ten.
- 19:00Speaker 1: No, there should be no more than three dollars the
- 19:03Speaker 1: big things. Yeah, take I'd take two for ten of those. Absolutely,
- 19:07Speaker 1: we don't have to go back too far when they
- 19:08Speaker 1: were five dollars and that did seem like a lot.
- 19:10Speaker 1: Now I don't pay for I don't pay for anything
- 19:12Speaker 1: over three dollars. You count by much, then well, yeah,
- 19:16Speaker 1: three fifty for one of those you know, rectangular.
- 19:19Speaker 2: Now unless it's three dollars round up, not even going
- 19:21Speaker 2: anywhere near.
- 19:22Speaker 1: I'll find the ones that are reduced to clear. I
- 19:23Speaker 1: respect that, yes, yeah.
- 19:25Speaker 2: Or what I'll do is to get around that is,
- 19:27Speaker 2: I'll wait until like all the individual bars are like
- 19:30Speaker 2: a dollar, and then I'll just go on by half
- 19:32Speaker 2: a dozen of those of different flavors.
- 19:33Speaker 1: Yeah, you're probably paying more per one hundred grams. It
- 19:35Speaker 1: doesn't matter absolutely, But the principle, it's just me serving size,
- 19:38Speaker 1: mate serving size. Yeah. It's funny when they do have
- 19:41Speaker 1: those sort of philosophical type discussions because I love I
- 19:47Speaker 1: love thinking about that sort of thing and whether things
- 19:50Speaker 1: are predetermined, whether it is all just a chaotic mess
- 19:54Speaker 1: that cannot be planned, which is really realistically it's what
- 19:57Speaker 1: it is. I just remember having these common stations with
- 20:00Speaker 1: a classmate of mine, senior and fast, smarter than I was,
- 20:04Speaker 1: and we got she's brilliant, and I think I just
- 20:07Speaker 1: liked messing with her, maybe the perception of everything that
- 20:12Speaker 1: she had sort of locked herself away with you know that,
- 20:14Speaker 1: you know everything is unplanned and blah, And I'm set
- 20:18Speaker 1: in that now I can approach the rest of my
- 20:19Speaker 1: life and me probably coming in from as a plan Mitchell, Well,
- 20:23Speaker 1: God has a plan for us.
- 20:23Speaker 2: All.
- 20:24Speaker 1: That's the thing. I wonder whether she was religious or not.
- 20:26Speaker 1: I can't, I can't remember, but I remember saying to her,
- 20:31Speaker 1: probably off the back of watching some type of stype
- 20:33Speaker 1: TI movie, television show or something sing an episode like this,
- 20:37Speaker 1: even though they don't really hammer it as much in this,
- 20:39Speaker 1: but certainly this sort of context, this sort of concept,
- 20:44Speaker 1: And I said to her, Well, you say that it's unplanned,
- 20:48Speaker 1: how can you guarantee she's liked?
- 20:49Speaker 4: Well?
- 20:50Speaker 1: You know, for example, if I get to a fork
- 20:52Speaker 1: in the road, I have a choice whether I go
- 20:54Speaker 1: right or I go left. And I said, sure, but
- 20:56Speaker 1: who's to say that you what do you choose right?
- 20:59Speaker 1: Might choose right? Who's to say you weren't always going
- 21:01Speaker 1: to choose right? But then it takes choice out of it,
- 21:03Speaker 1: and it takes free will out of it. And if
- 21:06Speaker 1: that's the case, then why we even hear? Like, what's
- 21:08Speaker 1: the point If if this is somebody else's plan, or
- 21:10Speaker 1: if this is the universe as an idea, as a
- 21:14Speaker 1: giant body, if it is all determined for us, then
- 21:17Speaker 1: why should we be here? Why would I want to
- 21:20Speaker 1: exist in that? I'm like, hey, you just kind of
- 21:22Speaker 1: along for the ride. It's fine, just play dumb. You're
- 21:25Speaker 1: along for the ride and just enjoy it. Once you
- 21:27Speaker 1: forget about having this sort of conversation and discussing this
- 21:30Speaker 1: sort of concept, you're fine. Yeah, And I love living
- 21:34Speaker 1: like that going. I don't know that I'm making any choice,
- 21:36Speaker 1: but I like the ride that I'm on, And then
- 21:38Speaker 1: since then, I probably I love chaos, and I love
- 21:41Speaker 1: the idea that everything happens because of something. You know,
- 21:45Speaker 1: it is the consequence because of an action that you
- 21:48Speaker 1: that you have made. But at the same time, I
- 21:52Speaker 1: don't mind that I've flipped because who I don't know. Yeah,
- 21:57Speaker 1: it allows us to play with great ideas like this,
- 21:59Speaker 1: where someone can see shit like this beyond even their
- 22:02Speaker 1: own planet.
- 22:03Speaker 2: Perhaps well, because we have the ability it could just
- 22:06Speaker 2: in the same way, like you know, we see a
- 22:08Speaker 2: certain visual spectrum other animals see a different visual spectrum. Yeah,
- 22:12Speaker 2: you know, so we don't perceive everything in the universe.
- 22:16Speaker 2: But also we have a degree of being able to
- 22:18Speaker 2: tell the future. If I take this penan's in my
- 22:21Speaker 2: hand and throw it over at that wall, I can
- 22:24Speaker 2: predict with fair accuracy what's going to happen. So what's
- 22:28Speaker 2: to say that there isn't something out there that more
- 22:32Speaker 2: advanced than us that can predict the future. And it
- 22:35Speaker 2: just happens to be a tumor in this guy's head,
- 22:36Speaker 2: you know, it can be those things. So yeah, it's
- 22:38Speaker 2: a really interesting idea of, yeah, what you can predict
- 22:42Speaker 2: versus what is just sort of the chaos. So I
- 22:44Speaker 2: did like the way they kind of rode both lines
- 22:47Speaker 2: with that, and it's still kind of stuck fairly well
- 22:50Speaker 2: to Carter's character of being, you know, quite a scientific person,
- 22:53Speaker 2: except for that weird one episode where she was dying
- 22:55Speaker 2: and thought she believed in God or whatever, which ironically
- 22:59Speaker 2: I think was written by the same right, I think
- 23:01Speaker 2: there been an Alan Mcolor episode.
- 23:04Speaker 1: Yeah, so I did like the back and forward with that.
- 23:06Speaker 2: It was quite interest I like the philosophical debates because
- 23:08Speaker 2: there's no right or wrong answer really it's just the
- 23:13Speaker 2: thought exercise is what I enjoyed the most, and just
- 23:17Speaker 2: broadening your horizons and going and opening something going, oh,
- 23:20Speaker 2: that's an.
- 23:20Speaker 1: Interesting way to view that, that kind of thing. So
- 23:23Speaker 1: Shaman him like lean into it more. And I know
- 23:25Speaker 1: it was the through line of the episode, but once
- 23:27Speaker 1: he sort of said, oh, this is what's going to happen,
- 23:28Speaker 1: then it was all about talking to unnamed Wraith and
- 23:31Speaker 1: him saying they're coming and if these other people come
- 23:34Speaker 1: there to gain and destroy or if we don't do
- 23:35Speaker 1: this and the replicators are going to come and kill you,
- 23:37Speaker 1: And it was a matter of like, well he said that,
- 23:38Speaker 1: is it true or is it not. It wasn't continuously
- 23:42Speaker 1: going back to him and delving more into him. It
- 23:44Speaker 1: was like, oh, he's dying off to the side. Let's
- 23:45Speaker 1: forget about him. So I feel like they sort of
- 23:47Speaker 1: teased this with what they could have done, and they
- 23:49Speaker 1: just ran with what they had rather than maybe expand
- 23:52Speaker 1: on it a little bit, which is a shame. I mean,
- 23:54Speaker 1: it was still still fun enough episode, which we got
- 23:57Speaker 1: to like four minutes before the end of the episode,
- 24:00Speaker 1: and I think the other Wraith ship was just about
- 24:03Speaker 1: to show up, and I had this mad panic because
- 24:06Speaker 1: it's just about me coming into the studio and I'm thinking,
- 24:10Speaker 1: hang on, was I supposed to watch two? Is this
- 24:13Speaker 1: a double part of going to come in and go on?
- 24:16Speaker 1: So it was the unofficial part one and part two.
- 24:18Speaker 1: They've got two separate names, and I was like, shit,
- 24:21Speaker 1: how could this possibly wrap up right now? Yeah, we've
- 24:24Speaker 1: got three and a half minutes ago and we're getting
- 24:27Speaker 1: to teasing what the climax of this episode is going
- 24:30Speaker 1: to be. But then it did all wrap up quick
- 24:31Speaker 1: and it didn't feel rushed. It felt like the natural
- 24:34Speaker 1: base on what they'd already told us that we're all
- 24:36Speaker 1: in these different factions as the Wraith, we're all fighting
- 24:38Speaker 1: each other because you know, we're all off, we're not
- 24:40Speaker 1: under one rule or whatever. And they come across some
- 24:43Speaker 1: other random shit hovering over a I think I said
- 24:46Speaker 1: shit over a ship hovering over a The Hives do
- 24:49Speaker 1: kind of look like a big purples, a little bit
- 24:51Speaker 1: an uninhabited planet. What are you doing here? Fire on
- 24:53Speaker 1: each other and kill each other? So it did pay
- 24:56Speaker 1: off what that had been teased earlier, but it just
- 24:57Speaker 1: felt like it was coming coming very late. But that's
- 25:01Speaker 1: what she said. Thank you very much. Just I don't
- 25:04Speaker 1: know if you've seen it does the rounds every couple
- 25:06Speaker 1: of months. I feel a real TikTok wherever you might
- 25:09Speaker 1: find it, which dives into the is it predetermined or
- 25:13Speaker 1: is it based on everybody's own personal choices and we're
- 25:16Speaker 1: living in chaos. There's a video of a kid and
- 25:18Speaker 1: he says to his dad and only saw this the
- 25:20Speaker 1: other day, so I don't know if it pops up
- 25:22Speaker 1: in your algorithms. If not, it's going to happen now.
- 25:24Speaker 1: Where he holds a kitchen plate, dinner plate, and he
- 25:27Speaker 1: says to his dad, I'm going to drop this and
- 25:29Speaker 1: I bet it won't blake. He's a break he's a mate.
- 25:31Speaker 1: Please don't it's it's ceramic. It's of course it's going
- 25:34Speaker 1: to break. Don't do that. Please, It's a glass plate,
- 25:35Speaker 1: whatever it might be, it's definitely breakable. Please don't do
- 25:38Speaker 1: this a dad, I'm telling you, I'm going to drop it.
- 25:41Speaker 1: It will not break. He drops it, hits the floor
- 25:44Speaker 1: and shatters, and the dad's just looking at him. He goes, dad,
- 25:47Speaker 1: you were supposed to catch it. He said, what are
- 25:50Speaker 1: you talking about? You said it wouldn't break. Is yeah,
- 25:51Speaker 1: it was going to break because you would catch it.
- 25:54Speaker 1: Why would you let it break? He starts gas lighting
- 25:56Speaker 1: his dad. He was like, the joke is I drop
- 25:59Speaker 1: it and you you don't want it to break, so
- 26:01Speaker 1: you catch it. And then I'm right because I dropped it,
- 26:03Speaker 1: and yet it didn't break. So it's like he had
- 26:06Speaker 1: predetermined what was going to happen, and yet the thing
- 26:09Speaker 1: that he planned on because of his predetermination didn't quite
- 26:14Speaker 1: work out. And then there's also you know, depending on
- 26:17Speaker 1: what you watch, and there's some of them where it's like,
- 26:19Speaker 1: you know, a time travel movie, it's like, this has happened, Well,
- 26:22Speaker 1: let's go back and let's change it. Or we get
- 26:24Speaker 1: a premonition and we act accordingly and then we change
- 26:27Speaker 1: it because we know what to expect. And then there
- 26:29Speaker 1: are a couple of movies I can't even give a
- 26:33Speaker 1: spoiler alert because once I say them, maybe we'll at
- 26:36Speaker 1: the head twelve monkeys. Have you seen this? And not
- 26:39Speaker 1: since I was probably came out okay, And there's a
- 26:41Speaker 1: movie called Premonition with Sandra Bullock. Feel free for yourself
- 26:45Speaker 1: to turn down your own headphones while I while I talk.
- 26:49Speaker 2: About that better or worse than the lighthouse, the lake house,
- 26:54Speaker 2: lake house.
- 26:55Speaker 1: I didn't mind the lake house.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Well, I didn't mind it either, But that was obviously
- 26:58Speaker 2: a bit of a time you wind me travel.
- 27:00Speaker 1: A little bit timing. I mean, this was premonition. She
- 27:01Speaker 1: had a premonition of her husband's death, and then she
- 27:04Speaker 1: did everything she could to try and avoid it.
- 27:07Speaker 2: Oh, I think I might have seen.
- 27:08Speaker 1: That back in the day. And then at the end
- 27:12Speaker 1: she sees only because of the changes she has made
- 27:15Speaker 1: to avoid her husband's death, she kind of put them
- 27:18Speaker 1: in a position where he died the exact same way
- 27:20Speaker 1: she saw on the highway. On the highway, yes, I'm
- 27:23Speaker 1: supposed to be Yes. So she goes out of her
- 27:26Speaker 1: way to try and avoid what she saw in a premonition,
- 27:29Speaker 1: and that actually caused Yeah, right, twelve monkeys. They are
- 27:32Speaker 1: out to avoid this thing, so they go to all
- 27:34Speaker 1: these travel trouble to go back in time and do
- 27:37Speaker 1: all this stuff blah blah blah blah blah, and by
- 27:38Speaker 1: doing that, it actually causes the thing that they're trying
- 27:41Speaker 1: to avoid in the first place. If they just would
- 27:42Speaker 1: have done nothing, it would have been fine. I mean,
- 27:46Speaker 1: in a way, it's kind of like, you know, terminator
- 27:48Speaker 1: in a way like the the Skynett send the terminators
- 27:52Speaker 1: back to kill John Connor. But if they didn't, I
- 27:56Speaker 1: mean they kind of create their own Ye.
- 27:58Speaker 2: If they hadn't have done that, potentially wouldn't have been
- 28:01Speaker 2: trained up well enough if they.
- 28:02Speaker 1: Didn't get out the resistance. If you don't try and
- 28:05Speaker 1: kill Sarah Connor, then John kind of doesn't grow up
- 28:06Speaker 1: to become a resistance leader. But also if you don't
- 28:08Speaker 1: send someone back, then they would not have been killed
- 28:11Speaker 1: to have the little chip being discovered by Nile Gison.
- 28:14Speaker 2: And we don't try and kill Sarah Conna the waitress
- 28:16Speaker 2: in the first one, she hasn't become the.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Bad us in the second one trains him up. So yeah,
- 28:20Speaker 1: oh here we go paradoxes, get the Butcher's paper house,
- 28:23Speaker 1: give me a white food. So yeah, I love all
- 28:26Speaker 1: this shit. So I love when they play with That's
- 28:27Speaker 1: why I feel like this one was like, oh, great
- 28:29Speaker 1: concept at the start, But you know, that's where maybe
- 28:31Speaker 1: I would have loved to have seen an episode where
- 28:33Speaker 1: the Seer we just go old school. Season three, Season
- 28:35Speaker 1: four of SG one, we show up on a planet
- 28:38Speaker 1: even without the necessity to go there because we know
- 28:40Speaker 1: this guy can see. That's why we went there, because
- 28:42Speaker 1: Taylor's like, we've dealt with these people. There's a guy
- 28:44Speaker 1: who can see the future. Take that out. They're just
- 28:47Speaker 1: dialing into some random planet, which is going against what
- 28:49Speaker 1: our showrunners want where we have a standalone episode and
- 28:52Speaker 1: they go there. This guy gets that, they're greeted at
- 28:54Speaker 1: the gate. Oh we knew you were coming. Okay, we'll
- 28:56Speaker 1: go and delve in. And that starts some type of thing,
- 28:59Speaker 1: a conflict within that own planet and we can really
- 29:01Speaker 1: dive into it without having these sort of galactic wide
- 29:05Speaker 1: in a way repercussions where we have two Wraith ships
- 29:08Speaker 1: are now out of out of it. You know, we've
- 29:10Speaker 1: got unnamed Wraiths, his people, his ship that was coming
- 29:13Speaker 1: to him, they're gone, and he's still a prisoner. And
- 29:15Speaker 1: he's still a prisoner. Have they haven't they actually got
- 29:18Speaker 1: a real weapon that can help destroy the replicators. Unnamed
- 29:21Speaker 1: Wraith tells us that that we do. We're believing him
- 29:24Speaker 1: because we need to. But you know, other than those
- 29:26Speaker 1: little bits and pieces, you know, we we don't have
- 29:30Speaker 1: this massive tie in. But because we do now, I
- 29:32Speaker 1: think it took a little bit of the steam out
- 29:34Speaker 1: of what could have been a great solo episode.
- 29:36Speaker 2: Are we going to remember that we have the Wraith
- 29:37Speaker 2: as a prisoner, considering we forgot about that redheaded Jani
- 29:41Speaker 2: woman from season one that she was a prisoner and
- 29:43Speaker 2: we never saw her again.
- 29:44Speaker 1: She just rodding away someone. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, they'll
- 29:47Speaker 1: remember the past word to get into the into the jail.
- 29:50Speaker 1: She's food in the cell for the Wraith in the.
- 29:54Speaker 2: It's funny you say that because apparently the idea of
- 29:57Speaker 2: the sea actually went through several for iterations of how
- 30:01Speaker 2: they were going to get in and get out of
- 30:02Speaker 2: the episode. And I think, because, yeah, we've had episodes
- 30:05Speaker 2: like the one with Jonas in it where he could
- 30:07Speaker 2: see the future and other things like that, so I think, yeah,
- 30:10Speaker 2: they can sometimes get a little bit too bogged down
- 30:12Speaker 2: and trying to do something different.
- 30:14Speaker 4: You know, it was incredibly tough to break this story. Boy.
- 30:17Speaker 5: We started out we experiment and we knew we wanted
- 30:19Speaker 5: some device by which we could see the future and
- 30:21Speaker 5: how that would impact Carter's decision making, you know, whether
- 30:25Speaker 5: too much information was was good or bad or you know,
- 30:28Speaker 5: And and it started out originally we found this device
- 30:31Speaker 5: on Atlantis, and the device was able to calculate probability,
- 30:35Speaker 5: because you know, it was just a massive, massive number
- 30:39Speaker 5: of calculations that they could arrive at probabilities. And it
- 30:41Speaker 5: started out with McKay able to make predictions, and then
- 30:45Speaker 5: we scrapped the device because we're like, well, how we
- 30:47Speaker 5: don't want it at the end of the episode.
- 30:48Speaker 4: We want it, we want and we can't just have
- 30:50Speaker 4: it blow up or something.
- 30:51Speaker 5: So then it became a time travel thing where Carter
- 30:54Speaker 5: and McKay somehow got you know, shot into the future
- 30:58Speaker 5: and then back and so she knew that Shepherd was
- 31:00Speaker 5: going to die in the future and they were trying
- 31:03Speaker 5: to prevent that from happening by changing the way events
- 31:06Speaker 5: played out.
- 31:06Speaker 4: And we went back and forth on that for days
- 31:10Speaker 4: then then.
- 31:10Speaker 5: And then finally it was Rob who came in and said, well,
- 31:12Speaker 5: there's an easy way to you know that we can
- 31:14Speaker 5: lose the device at the end.
- 31:15Speaker 4: Just make it a person and make that person sick.
- 31:17Speaker 5: So, you know, the the the device became the guy
- 31:22Speaker 5: who had this strange ability to see the future, which
- 31:26Speaker 5: we never explained.
- 31:29Speaker 1: I mean that does they do make a good point
- 31:31Speaker 1: for something that I questioned before, Why do they have
- 31:33Speaker 1: to make him sick? But it's like that's their way
- 31:35Speaker 1: of destroying the device. They killed the man, So that
- 31:38Speaker 1: does make sense, and thank god they went away from
- 31:39Speaker 1: the idea of like, oh, they traveled in the future,
- 31:41Speaker 1: they saw it. No, it's the same as them going
- 31:43Speaker 1: to a parallel universe and going, oh, there's enough threads
- 31:45Speaker 1: here that match, you know, we were trying to avoid that. Yeah,
- 31:47Speaker 1: we've done that.
- 31:48Speaker 2: Or another lab they find in Atlantis that had this
- 31:50Speaker 2: piece of technology of the week that you know, like
- 31:52Speaker 2: the one that made Rodney almost as send and then
- 31:55Speaker 2: the one that brought the Rodney from the other galaxy
- 31:57Speaker 2: the other universe and all that kind of stuff, or
- 31:59Speaker 2: you obviously Before I Sleep kind of did the whole
- 32:02Speaker 2: time travel thing already where we got the old Weir
- 32:05Speaker 2: and you know, she was the one that had gone
- 32:07Speaker 2: gone forward in time to prevent a disaster.
- 32:08Speaker 1: And all that kind of stuff. Yeah, we've covered it. We've
- 32:10Speaker 1: covered all that kind of stuff. And they feel like
- 32:12Speaker 1: it does feel it is. It's similar, but it's definitely
- 32:15Speaker 1: different enough having a person being able to see the
- 32:18Speaker 1: future as opposed to all of that stuff. It doesn't
- 32:20Speaker 1: feel like, oh, Okay, this is the season four version
- 32:22Speaker 1: of that storyline just with a guy. It feels, it
- 32:25Speaker 1: feels fresher than that. It's definitely on the fresh side
- 32:27Speaker 1: of the line down the middle between the two.
- 32:29Speaker 2: I wouldn't be opposed to an episode where Carter and
- 32:34Speaker 2: mackay are having highjinks, like in the future or something
- 32:36Speaker 2: like that. But I don't necessarily know that I need
- 32:38Speaker 2: the whole thing where they have to prevent a disaster
- 32:40Speaker 2: like a predistonation, paradox, all that kind of stuff. I
- 32:43Speaker 2: just those who offer a high jink somewhere. Yeah, great,
- 32:45Speaker 2: sign me up. But yeah, I think I think this
- 32:49Speaker 2: was kind of the best scenario, even though it is
- 32:52Speaker 2: kind of frustrating that the whole sort of impetus for
- 32:55Speaker 2: us to go and find this sea that Taylor just
- 32:57Speaker 2: happened to know about that she's never said anything about
- 32:59Speaker 2: previous was to find an information about the Ethosians. But
- 33:05Speaker 2: he has all these premonitions, none of which tie into
- 33:07Speaker 2: the Ethosians. He has that line about all where they're
- 33:09Speaker 2: shrouded in darkness or something like that. So that's kind
- 33:13Speaker 2: of frustrating that we did all that and then got
- 33:15Speaker 2: nothing out of it. Yeah, ethosion wise, but I guess
- 33:17Speaker 2: that is the same kind of I guess core concept
- 33:21Speaker 2: of like the early SG one days where you know,
- 33:25Speaker 2: like the Knox where till it would be like I
- 33:27Speaker 2: would do go do a blooded where these giant visible
- 33:29Speaker 2: bugs and blah blah blah, and then we end up
- 33:31Speaker 2: beating the Knocks and don't get anything out of it
- 33:33Speaker 2: and don't getting back at the end, and so yeah,
- 33:36Speaker 2: it does kind of working in that regard.
- 33:38Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm nervous saying this and things like this every
- 33:42Speaker 1: single episode because, like you said, you are the Seer
- 33:45Speaker 1: of Atlantis, because you've got.
- 33:46Speaker 2: A pretty good idea of where we see my big
- 33:48Speaker 2: wooden throne that I've got a home.
- 33:49Speaker 1: It's amazing. But yeah, yeah, funny that very Game of
- 33:53Speaker 1: Thrones little tantum, Like I feel like you'd be one
- 33:55Speaker 1: with the people. He wouldn't just be sitting there just
- 33:57Speaker 1: waiting for someone to come in and talk to him.
- 33:59Speaker 1: But you saying before, oh, well, maybe that premonition will
- 34:04Speaker 1: pay off, just not now, like we might see some
- 34:06Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, well now I'm kind of waiting for that,
- 34:08Speaker 1: but also not might be next to next week would
- 34:12Speaker 1: be the series finale exactly, And you if you hadn't
- 34:15Speaker 1: seen that, and you were watching this for the first time,
- 34:19Speaker 1: like I am. My question would be to the room,
- 34:22Speaker 1: which definitely doesn't work because it's only you now, would
- 34:24Speaker 1: be well, can he only see not just the future,
- 34:31Speaker 1: but the future that he is involved in? You know?
- 34:34Speaker 2: Like, yeah, it is an interesting concept because it's like
- 34:37Speaker 2: he wasn't present during the ambush, but he saw the ambush. Yeah,
- 34:42Speaker 2: you know, if he was present on Atlantis when it
- 34:45Speaker 2: was being destroyed, would he have been killed?
- 34:49Speaker 1: Like if he's in.
- 34:50Speaker 2: That tower when it collapsed and stuff like that. He's
- 34:52Speaker 2: obviously seeing things from a from a third person point
- 34:56Speaker 2: of view. It's not like he's seeing it through his
- 34:57Speaker 2: own lives, which is I think the difference bewe Hi
- 34:59Speaker 2: and Jonas' pretty sure Jonas only saw things through his
- 35:02Speaker 2: own eyes, Yeah, yeah, yeah, whereas the Seer seems to
- 35:04Speaker 2: be able to just get random visions of something that
- 35:08Speaker 2: he doesn't even know exists.
- 35:09Speaker 1: Yeah, And even before they really went into just how
- 35:12Speaker 1: sick that he was and how much shirts or how
- 35:15Speaker 1: little time that he had, when he said, oh, my
- 35:17Speaker 1: own fate remains a mistress to me for as much
- 35:20Speaker 1: as I can see, And I'm like, actually, I like
- 35:22Speaker 1: that because we've seen stuff like that in movies and
- 35:24Speaker 1: TV in the past, where someone can see stuff, I mean,
- 35:26Speaker 1: the ancient one in Doctor Strange and she's like, I
- 35:29Speaker 1: can only see so far, you know, like I've never
- 35:31Speaker 1: been able to see past this point, and it's because
- 35:34Speaker 1: that's the moment where she died, and she just keeps
- 35:37Speaker 1: trying to like work out how they how they sort
- 35:39Speaker 1: of get there. So whereas in this, you know, it
- 35:42Speaker 1: was one thing for them to arrive at the gate
- 35:46Speaker 1: and his daughter and the people be there waiting for
- 35:48Speaker 1: our team, But it would have been different for me
- 35:51Speaker 1: if he would have brought up something that Taylor had
- 35:54Speaker 1: said in the briefing room and she's like, we're a
- 35:56Speaker 1: bit skeptical on it, but yeah, for the most part,
- 35:58Speaker 1: he's good. He would have been like, I know that,
- 35:59Speaker 1: you doubt it's only an hour ago. It's like, can
- 36:02Speaker 1: you did you see that from a far? Like can
- 36:04Speaker 1: you are you another malevel reference? Are you haimedel? Can
- 36:07Speaker 1: you see everything everywhere? Or is it just stuff that
- 36:10Speaker 1: you are involved with yourself? If you on your planet,
- 36:13Speaker 1: you can see stuff happening in your planet or is
- 36:15Speaker 1: it just your people? So, yeah, when he can't see
- 36:18Speaker 1: his own future, and that premonition ends with the giant
- 36:22Speaker 1: tower collapsing and Atlanta's being shot to shit? Is that
- 36:25Speaker 1: because well that's where he dies and he sees everything
- 36:28Speaker 1: to do with that and that battle. So when we
- 36:32Speaker 1: do we or do That's what I'm talking about, That
- 36:34Speaker 1: the actual vision of his might be a couple of
- 36:36Speaker 1: months in the future, a couple of episodes in my
- 36:38Speaker 1: future or did we actually change the future and so
- 36:45Speaker 1: he still died when he was supposed to die, but
- 36:48Speaker 1: that tower falling down is now a future that has
- 36:51Speaker 1: been avoided?
- 36:53Speaker 2: Yeah? Is it a future that's been avoided or has
- 36:55Speaker 2: he seen something beyond his death?
- 36:57Speaker 1: Yeah? And it's a mirrored situation of event that they
- 37:00Speaker 1: think that they've avoided eventually. Yeah, which now I'm thinking
- 37:05Speaker 1: is what's gonna happen.
- 37:06Speaker 2: I used to get into that enjoyment of when I
- 37:08Speaker 2: watch Charmed because Alissa Milano's character Phoebe, she could have premonitions.
- 37:13Speaker 2: But again, it's like hers was a little different in
- 37:16Speaker 2: that she could after she learned her power, she could
- 37:20Speaker 2: choose when she wanted visit like she could she could
- 37:22Speaker 2: touch something and that would give her a vision like
- 37:25Speaker 2: you know as she would pick up your phone and
- 37:27Speaker 2: that's because that's something of yours that would happen to it,
- 37:29Speaker 2: and she would be able to have a vision about
- 37:31Speaker 2: your future or something like that. Whereas, Yeah, I feel
- 37:33Speaker 2: like with Davos it was very like just random stuff.
- 37:38Speaker 2: Did he even have a line about he's never had
- 37:40Speaker 2: a vision about himself or something like that. He just
- 37:42Speaker 2: he just seems to get visions for the quote unquote greater.
- 37:45Speaker 1: Good of you know, the galaxy? And yeah, where does
- 37:49Speaker 1: that extend?
- 37:50Speaker 2: Is he suddenly going to have a vision of SG one,
- 37:52Speaker 2: you know, or something that or the SGC which is
- 37:55Speaker 2: in another galaxy? You know, as far as we're aware,
- 37:59Speaker 2: he's never seen a Replicator ship, but he had a
- 38:03Speaker 2: vision of the Replicator ship firing on Atlantis. So it's like, well,
- 38:09Speaker 2: if he had had that vision a month ago, would
- 38:14Speaker 2: he have any context for who that ties in to
- 38:16Speaker 2: if he hadn't?
- 38:17Speaker 1: You know?
- 38:18Speaker 2: So yeah, it's again it's one of those things where
- 38:20Speaker 2: you that's the kind of power that you know, a
- 38:23Speaker 2: whole season of television to really delve into what are
- 38:25Speaker 2: the rules and how does it work? But like alle
- 38:28Speaker 2: mcculor said in that it's like we just never explained it. Yes,
- 38:31Speaker 2: he was just he was He was literally a device,
- 38:34Speaker 2: a plot device, and a device that they just made
- 38:36Speaker 2: human so that he could die at the end. So
- 38:38Speaker 2: we didn't have to deal with that technology.
- 38:39Speaker 1: Another thing they avoided, and maybe it just came down
- 38:42Speaker 1: to scripting that the length and they've had to cut
- 38:44Speaker 1: the scene. But like considering the last episode ended with
- 38:49Speaker 1: Taylor being told by Keller, We've got to talk about
- 38:53Speaker 1: your test results. We as an audience can speculate, and
- 38:58Speaker 1: like we spoke of it in the podcast last week,
- 38:59Speaker 1: well this is just coincidentally off screen, Rachel Lateral is pregnant,
- 39:05Speaker 1: so that's probably what's going to be happening with Taylor.
- 39:07Speaker 1: And then when the seer says, oh, are you not
- 39:11Speaker 1: carrying another life within you? I thought she was going
- 39:13Speaker 1: to be like, because I didn't see that, of course
- 39:16Speaker 1: that Keller is not going to go we need to
- 39:17Speaker 1: talk about your test results. And she's like, okay, what
- 39:20Speaker 1: I know, we're actually out of time. I'll get back
- 39:21Speaker 1: to you later and walk away like she's never going
- 39:23Speaker 1: to do that, so obviously she should know. But because
- 39:25Speaker 1: we as an audience didn't see that, I was my
- 39:28Speaker 1: first thought, only for a split second, was oh, this
- 39:31Speaker 1: is going to be how she finds out Now it wasn't.
- 39:33Speaker 2: She's it would have been cooler to do it this
- 39:35Speaker 2: way rather than Keller.
- 39:36Speaker 1: Yeah, right, yeah, it would have actually yeah, But because
- 39:40Speaker 1: she had already had that conversation, she just confirmed yeah,
- 39:42Speaker 1: actually I am. And I'm like, oh, why did we
- 39:44Speaker 1: not get that? I would like Taylor. I don't know.
- 39:47Speaker 1: I feel like I would have loved to have seen
- 39:48Speaker 1: what is that character and the way that she operates
- 39:51Speaker 1: and has to live her life and all of her
- 39:54Speaker 1: experiences and her hopes and dreams for the future of
- 39:57Speaker 1: destroying her enemy so that she can reunite with a
- 39:59Speaker 1: bit kind of like Tilk, but of course destroy the
- 40:01Speaker 1: end of me, reunite with your people and live happily
- 40:03Speaker 1: ever after. How does you falling pregnant in the middle
- 40:06Speaker 1: of that? What does that do to you? How does
- 40:08Speaker 1: that change? What do you think about that? I'm sure
- 40:11Speaker 1: it's all very positive, blah blah blah, nothing, nothing like that,
- 40:15Speaker 1: But I just I don't know. I hate when movies
- 40:18Speaker 1: and TV shows cheap out on a conversation like that,
- 40:21Speaker 1: or you do actually see people talking and then it
- 40:24Speaker 1: just slowpan out, bring up the music, and we just
- 40:27Speaker 1: see them out they oh, someone be shocked, or someone
- 40:30Speaker 1: gives someone a cuddle, whatever it might be. And I know,
- 40:33Speaker 1: write that scene, I want to know what that dialogue
- 40:36Speaker 1: sounds like.
- 40:36Speaker 2: I'm in the middle of doing a rewatch of Parenthood
- 40:38Speaker 2: that we've spoken about it, and one of the characters
- 40:40Speaker 2: has to announce the entire family that they've got cancer,
- 40:42Speaker 2: and we know, as an audience know. But then as
- 40:45Speaker 2: they start to tell the entire family, I won't give
- 40:47Speaker 2: it away, just in case you walk into the room
- 40:49Speaker 2: watching it, the music swells and the whole thing is
- 40:53Speaker 2: played with no dialogue and just music, and you just
- 40:57Speaker 2: see the reactions of people's faces and stuff like that.
- 40:59Speaker 1: I'm like, no, kind of want to I kind of want.
- 41:01Speaker 2: To see that that particular acting person because I'm not
- 41:04Speaker 2: going to give I want that that that actor person
- 41:08Speaker 2: over there to you know, be able to flex a
- 41:11Speaker 2: little bit and show what they can do.
- 41:13Speaker 1: And half the time when you do see scenes like
- 41:14Speaker 1: that where the score is just over the top of it,
- 41:17Speaker 1: drowning it out, they're still acting. There ares off and
- 41:20Speaker 1: you see a lot of facial acting and the other
- 41:22Speaker 1: reactions of the people that have no speaking roles in
- 41:26Speaker 1: that scene, And I'm like, hang on, was this was
- 41:28Speaker 1: this written and filmed and in the edit you found
- 41:32Speaker 1: it stronger to drown it out with music or in
- 41:36Speaker 1: the moment, could you, as a writer go, I don't
- 41:38Speaker 1: know how to write this scene success. So I don't
- 41:39Speaker 1: know how to write it and give it enough mph.
- 41:41Speaker 1: The director comes and goes, hey, look, I tell you,
- 41:43Speaker 1: We'll just say, get the actors to say I have cancer.
- 41:46Speaker 1: Everyone else can react and it's just that. Can just
- 41:49Speaker 1: add lib and we'll take care of it later, fix
- 41:51Speaker 1: it in posts. So I'm always wondering, gonna need a
- 41:55Speaker 1: mon time? Was that a choice? Or was that what
- 41:57Speaker 1: was written? And I never I can never tell, and
- 41:59Speaker 1: I'm always just like, no, I want to either way.
- 42:01Speaker 1: I wanted to see what that was. I want to
- 42:02Speaker 1: know how you wrote that character finding out that piece
- 42:05Speaker 1: of awful information.
- 42:06Speaker 2: And I think, unfortunately, and this is probably the twenty
- 42:10Speaker 2: twenty five of it all is I think stuff like
- 42:13Speaker 2: this really highlights the fact that it's an all male
- 42:16Speaker 2: writing stuff. Yeah, when it comes to doing this kind
- 42:20Speaker 2: of thing without giving away too many spoilers, because I
- 42:24Speaker 2: am the seer What I find really unsettling with the
- 42:31Speaker 2: whole Taylor pregnancy situation is when other members of the
- 42:36Speaker 2: team and stuff start to find out, so many of them,
- 42:39Speaker 2: the first question they ask is who is the father?
- 42:43Speaker 2: And it's like, really, that's the question you ask when
- 42:46Speaker 2: this person who is like family to you. Yeah, it's
- 42:49Speaker 2: not a congratulations, it's oh my god, holibla, it's who's
- 42:53Speaker 2: the father?
- 42:54Speaker 1: And I'm just like, that's a little bit dicky. That's
- 42:56Speaker 1: a little bit dicky, And like, you know, on the harmless,
- 42:59Speaker 1: on the on the on the nice side, you can
- 43:01Speaker 1: get well, who are you hanging out? Because you're here,
- 43:04Speaker 1: it's no one here, so who is it? Like, you know,
- 43:07Speaker 1: it's almost like, well, why is why is this something
- 43:10Speaker 1: you haven't shared with us? Why have you felt the
- 43:12Speaker 1: need to keep this secret from us? You know, we
- 43:14Speaker 1: would have been supportive of a relationship that you have,
- 43:16Speaker 1: or you know, the plans for your feet all that
- 43:18Speaker 1: sort of stuff.
- 43:18Speaker 2: But then when she also could have curked it and
- 43:20Speaker 2: I just couldn't one night stand with some random on
- 43:22Speaker 2: a planet. It could have been one of Ronan's people
- 43:24Speaker 2: back in that episode four, she could have she could
- 43:26Speaker 2: have banged tear and.
- 43:27Speaker 1: We just didn't see it.
- 43:28Speaker 2: Yeah, so no, I get I had him aggressive, like
- 43:31Speaker 2: the fight turned into a fight, if you know, a
- 43:35Speaker 2: little bit of Yeah.
- 43:37Speaker 1: The other the other part of this for me as
- 43:39Speaker 1: the first time Wolsey, He's back, Oh yeah, what a dick.
- 43:44Speaker 6: But I want you to know I'm here as an
- 43:45Speaker 6: observer only. I have no intention of getting involved in
- 43:48Speaker 6: the day to day operations of the base.
- 43:49Speaker 4: Really, that's refreshing.
- 43:55Speaker 1: I love that first moment, like not two minutes later
- 43:57Speaker 1: on screen time, it felt like and he said, so,
- 44:00Speaker 1: he was just engaged in the conversation. He was playing,
- 44:02Speaker 1: playing his part, and it felt it felt natural with
- 44:05Speaker 1: what they were talking about. And then cartera just turned
- 44:07Speaker 1: and said, how's that that observation going for you? It
- 44:11Speaker 1: just like fully shuts him down and like that's fine.
- 44:13Speaker 1: That's what we've always done to Wolvesey and you can
- 44:15Speaker 1: understand why he was doing certain things that he was
- 44:17Speaker 1: doing and saying what he was saying. But then come
- 44:20Speaker 1: the end where it was a real like no you
- 44:22Speaker 1: do this and Carter going yourself, Yeah, no, I loved that.
- 44:28Speaker 1: That was so good. And of course she was going
- 44:30Speaker 1: to get paid off. Of course she was going to
- 44:31Speaker 1: get proven to be right. But you know we really
- 44:34Speaker 1: needed that moment him like you will kill us all
- 44:36Speaker 1: It's like, no, bro, you're going to do it when
- 44:39Speaker 1: you make the opposite choice, because then we're going to
- 44:41Speaker 1: get turned on. And yeah, like I know we came
- 44:44Speaker 1: to like him a little bit more last time, one
- 44:46Speaker 1: of the last times he was around whatever it was.
- 44:48Speaker 1: But the return when he was with ONEO. Yeah that
- 44:50Speaker 1: double ep that wasn't too bad. Yeah, you didn't hate
- 44:52Speaker 1: him in that episode, and you could see that he
- 44:54Speaker 1: was starting to come around on us. But at the
- 44:57Speaker 1: same time, it's like still bit of a dick move.
- 45:01Speaker 1: And you know, I love having I love having someone
- 45:03Speaker 1: back that we can we can warm to the characters.
- 45:05Speaker 1: We can warm to Carter and and her. I guess
- 45:08Speaker 1: confidence in herself to be able to run that base
- 45:10Speaker 1: when you put her up against a character like Wolsey
- 45:12Speaker 1: where she has to make a contradicting decision to his
- 45:15Speaker 1: wishes and a payoff or spectacularly not. But we understand
- 45:20Speaker 1: why she did it.
- 45:21Speaker 2: Do you still have the law in order?
- 45:22Speaker 1: Du Tom mate? Do I? It is up right in
- 45:25Speaker 1: front of me.
- 45:28Speaker 2: I would like the record to show Mitchell. Mitchell James
- 45:31Speaker 2: Lewis of sound mind. Oh God is the one that
- 45:33Speaker 2: brought up Wolsey, not me?
- 45:35Speaker 1: Ah right, okay, good, good good.
- 45:39Speaker 2: And I would like to present this piece of evidence
- 45:41Speaker 2: to the court.
- 45:42Speaker 1: Unfortunately representing, So because I brought up Wolsey, you're going
- 45:46Speaker 1: to just tag onto the end of that. So it's
- 45:48Speaker 1: we're not gonna We're gonna un that's one you.
- 45:52Speaker 2: No, no, it's nothing, nothing to do with that, going
- 45:55Speaker 2: in a completely different direction.
- 45:57Speaker 1: It can be crazy for thinking that's what you were doing.
- 46:00Speaker 2: I can go there if we want later, But Representative
- 46:04Speaker 2: Gibson is not here. He is not here to defend himself,
- 46:08Speaker 2: your honor. But I would like to present this piece
- 46:11Speaker 2: of evidence to the court.
- 46:14Speaker 6: Well, the Ioway has come to realize that bureaucratic interference
- 46:17Speaker 6: on Atlantis isn't always as beneficial as we might like
- 46:20Speaker 6: to hope.
- 46:21Speaker 7: Say her name, say it, say it, put some respect
- 46:30Speaker 7: on her name, and say it, you bald headed.
- 46:36Speaker 1: I didn't.
- 46:40Speaker 2: Only after losing the beloved Elizabeth wea.
- 46:44Speaker 1: Do they well done? I took a breath. I shouldn't have.
- 46:50Speaker 1: Do they decide, oh suddenly, maybe we shouldn't be interfaring.
- 46:58Speaker 2: In the command decisions because.
- 47:00Speaker 1: What happened, it doesn't work out so well.
- 47:06Speaker 3: I mean your honor, you know, but you can see
- 47:09Speaker 3: why they you know, I get it.
- 47:17Speaker 1: Oh wow, just looking, I mean looking you down the

- 47:27Speaker 1: Machine, same mad name.
- 47:31Speaker 2: So just be glad that my internet was slow that
- 47:33Speaker 2: day and I was tired.
- 47:35Speaker 1: Well, look, sometimes we only learn things when bad things happen. Okay,
- 47:40Speaker 1: he just wanted to move on from it. He doesn't
- 47:42Speaker 1: want to apologize. He just wants to move on.
- 47:44Speaker 2: If only Davos could have met Woolsey six months ago
- 47:47Speaker 2: and said, listen to doctor Wea.
- 47:51Speaker 1: I don't want to do that.
- 47:51Speaker 2: Yeah, well, now you won't be at war with the
- 47:55Speaker 2: replicators and the race at the same time, had some
- 48:02Speaker 2: I had.
- 48:02Speaker 1: Some weird audio, John Yeah. Well, I mean I've always
- 48:07Speaker 1: got get out of the way. Yeah, that'll do. Of
- 48:11Speaker 1: course that's some Linda Hamilton, but it doesn't.
- 48:13Speaker 2: But that was what we have said when she took
- 48:14Speaker 2: all that glass to the face. Just get out of
- 48:16Speaker 2: the way, Joe, get out of the way.
- 48:20Speaker 1: Almost un alive. Night's in the brain.
- 48:23Speaker 2: Yeah, so you mentioned the Wraith apparently, and I don't
- 48:27Speaker 2: know who keeps track of this, because obviously we kept
- 48:30Speaker 2: track of the important things like how many women Daniel
- 48:33Speaker 2: slept with while he was still technically married to share Ye,
- 48:36Speaker 2: someone has been keeping track of how many Hive ships
- 48:39Speaker 2: we've seen destroyed, and apparently in this episode it marks
- 48:42Speaker 2: the eleventh and twelfth Hive ships that we've seen destroyed.
- 48:45Speaker 1: That's not bad. That's not bad that the show began.
- 48:48Speaker 1: That's a good tally. Yeah, I mean yeah, when they
- 48:51Speaker 1: talk about that's all love you know here. I know
- 48:53Speaker 1: that we're a unique but on many different you know,
- 48:57Speaker 1: sci fi formats, even to go back made to believe
- 48:59Speaker 1: it or not, animals, you know, where these aliens are
- 49:02Speaker 1: out there to take over other races and other species.
- 49:05Speaker 1: When they discover Earth, they're like, there's six billion on
- 49:08Speaker 1: This is back in the mid nineties. There are six billion,
- 49:11Speaker 1: Like that is unheard off numbers like and these are like, oh,
- 49:14Speaker 1: the Wraith of destroying human planets. How many were on
- 49:16Speaker 1: that planet? Have we lived there?
- 49:18Speaker 2: Oh?
- 49:18Speaker 1: Like sixty to seventy thousand. I'm like, wow, how heavily populated?
- 49:22Speaker 2: Oh no, we lost Tasmaniah what how terrible.
- 49:28Speaker 1: The views and thoughts overall get into game. I love
- 49:32Speaker 1: Tazzy Mate, I love Tazzy. Tassy's great, Tass He's great.
- 49:35Speaker 1: I mean way more than that.
- 49:36Speaker 2: The population'shire if you count up her head obviously, but.
- 49:40Speaker 1: Again, the buddy, you need to know if you can
- 49:44Speaker 1: shut down the replicator attack coat on your own.
- 49:46Speaker 4: I've been looking into that and it's not very promising.
- 49:49Speaker 4: You don't want to activated in the first place.
- 49:51Speaker 2: Well that was easy, well actually was spectatically difficult, but
- 49:53Speaker 2: it is relative, Rightney.
- 49:55Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very much giving.
- 49:57Speaker 2: The other week when he was like, yeah, I said
- 49:59Speaker 2: it was impossible, but I just having to be wrong
- 50:00Speaker 2: about that or whatever it was, he was.
- 50:03Speaker 1: Like, never misses the moment. Did you feel I was brilliant?
- 50:06Speaker 1: Actually brilliant anyway, stop bring it up. Obviously I'm smart
- 50:10Speaker 1: talking about let's let's look ahead. It's like shar up dude.
- 50:14Speaker 2: Ironically, though not his best line of the entire episode.
- 50:17Speaker 4: There's boundaries. A few eyebrows. I mean, if if you've
- 50:20Speaker 4: had eyebrows, that's.
- 50:25Speaker 1: The sound bite I had to leave that video. It
- 50:32Speaker 1: just it makes it What about now, I don't see
- 50:35Speaker 1: a piece of audio that's described his way, but just
- 50:39Speaker 1: a little bit of wrath. You ma oh no, I
- 50:43Speaker 1: understand his customer to shake hands and they all just
- 50:45Speaker 1: like raise their Gunyah, I'm gonna kill you. I was
- 50:49Speaker 1: gonna take the life for us from your part of
- 50:51Speaker 1: your head.
- 50:51Speaker 2: I think I think it was just because it's so unsettling.
- 50:53Speaker 2: It's like when we saw Tilk laugh that time and
- 50:55Speaker 2: we're like, oh, this doesn't feel right.
- 50:56Speaker 1: I know when he was laughing, I'm like, I don't
- 50:59Speaker 1: know that I need that. The wraith. Yeah, I think
- 51:01Speaker 1: you can leave that. You'll be fair. Smiling is one
- 51:03Speaker 1: thing because you're evil, but a laugh because it's something
- 51:07Speaker 1: you think is actually funny. No, thank you, Nope at all, No,
- 51:10Speaker 1: thank you. All right. That is episode two hundred and
- 51:13Speaker 1: seventy eight of Get Into Gates back again for season
- 51:17Speaker 1: number four, episode nine next week. Miller's crossing.
- 51:22Speaker 2: Do you have any any ideas maybe on not what
- 51:24Speaker 2: that could be?
- 51:25Speaker 1: What was the one last season? Was the season before
- 51:27Speaker 1: missus Miller? What was mill Miller? So that was his sister, right,
- 51:31Speaker 1: Jeanie Jeanie Miller Miller's crossing. Yeah, I mean one would
- 51:35Speaker 1: assume it's got something to do with his sister or
- 51:38Speaker 1: his brother in law. Who knows. Oh that's true. It
- 51:41Speaker 1: has nothing to do with the missus. See you see
- 51:43Speaker 1: what I did. I assumed, Yes, I assumed based on
- 51:45Speaker 1: gender gender norms, right, disgusting?
- 51:48Speaker 2: Yeah, because of course, and you know from a production
- 51:50Speaker 2: all of you. Who are they going to bring back,
- 51:52Speaker 2: you know, Debbie Hewlett's actual real life sister who's a
- 51:54Speaker 2: talented actress, or just that random the random guy that
- 51:58Speaker 2: stayed home dad friends with Martin Geary one episode.
- 52:01Speaker 1: I'm sorry if it's if it's a case the friend
- 52:03Speaker 1: of Button Giro, absolutely not.
- 52:06Speaker 2: But he is the right gender for the rises of
- 52:09Speaker 2: this show. Genie, not so much.
- 52:12Speaker 1: What do you call it when it's a friend of
- 52:13Speaker 1: you know, if you're the son or daughter of someone,
- 52:15Speaker 1: you're a NEPO in a casting or an epo baby?
- 52:18Speaker 1: What do we call when it's a a friend? Friend o?
- 52:21Speaker 2: Friend o baby?
- 52:24Speaker 1: Okay, it needs work.
- 52:25Speaker 2: Have you seen the meme where people said they reckon Australians.
- 52:28Speaker 2: He's like, how long before Australian start calling non binary
- 52:30Speaker 2: people non binos? I mean that's pretty good. I don't
- 52:36Speaker 2: mind that my non binos.
- 52:38Speaker 1: There's a guy, just the thought of that, now that
- 52:41Speaker 1: you've said.
- 52:42Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a guy I follow on YouTube and he
- 52:43Speaker 2: calls lesbians beanie babies because lesbians beanie babies.
- 52:48Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I see how he's made that. Yeah. I mean,
- 52:51Speaker 1: now that you've put it out there, more people will
- 52:52Speaker 1: be saying it. And it's not necessarily I mean certainly
- 52:57Speaker 1: not you. You're not saying anything that is uh.
- 53:00Speaker 2: No, it's not drogatoryrogatory again Australia, you give someone a
- 53:03Speaker 2: nickname as a form of affection. Yeah, And we shortened
- 53:06Speaker 2: things being reportant to us, we shortened.
- 53:08Speaker 1: See and I won't I won't even say what it is,
- 53:11Speaker 1: you know, Microsoft, I'll say it to you. You know
- 53:14Speaker 1: there there is there is the actual I guess name.
- 53:18Speaker 1: There is probably two different ones, but there is a
- 53:20Speaker 1: name given to a certain ethnic race within our country
- 53:25Speaker 1: that is then shortened on toast Okay, yep, what banana
- 53:35Speaker 1: and might Yeah. And whenever I had heard that growing up,
- 53:41Speaker 1: I heard that as the shortened the nickname version of
- 53:45Speaker 1: that much longer name. And then as I got older
- 53:48Speaker 1: and people you can't say that because it's racist to
- 53:51Speaker 1: say that, And I'm like, why if I say the longer.
- 53:53Speaker 1: One's like, no, then you sang the name as soon
- 53:55Speaker 1: as you shorten it, that's you being racist. I'm like, no,
- 53:57Speaker 1: I'm just shortening it because I'm lazy, because I'm Australian mate.
- 54:01Speaker 2: You know, So like what happens when you showt Arnold
- 54:03Speaker 2: sorsenigger's last name, that that becomes problematic?
- 54:07Speaker 1: Yeah, well you know, so you know? Yeah, so I
- 54:09Speaker 1: I like the non binar. Are theyre a non bino?
- 54:13Speaker 1: I think people will naturally assume you are being transphobic, yeah,
- 54:18Speaker 1: you know or whatever, you know, like they get when
- 54:20Speaker 1: I say that I'm wrong when I say that, I
- 54:22Speaker 1: just mean people that don't understand the difference. But people
- 54:24Speaker 1: will naturally assume that you are being derogatory towards non
- 54:28Speaker 1: binary people because you've got a non binar.
- 54:32Speaker 2: Non binar, just got to shorten it.
- 54:33Speaker 1: People love drinking wine. A non bindo whino whoa excellence.
- 54:38Speaker 1: Let's not put that under the ether. I don't mean anything.
- 54:41Speaker 1: We're saying it because that's the absurdity of where we are.
- 54:45Speaker 1: Do you know what they need?
- 54:46Speaker 2: People will say a non binary person who drinks a
- 54:49Speaker 2: lot of wine to go to East Lannubar so they
- 54:52Speaker 2: can see a lot of non bino whino diners.
- 54:56Speaker 1: If you have any more, get in the gate that Gmail,
- 55:00Speaker 1: come hit us up on the socials. Get in. If
- 55:04Speaker 1: you are a non binary person, you might know things
- 55:07Speaker 1: that we don't.
- 55:07Speaker 2: Yeah, and if if you are a non binary person

- 55:16Speaker 2: and you're a non bino winodyno ghino, hit us up.
- 55:21Speaker 2: Although that does make it sound like you you're a
- 55:23Speaker 2: glenocologist for dinosaurs, we probably got to you know or
- 55:27Speaker 2: is it is it a dinosaur gynecologist, in which that
- 55:33Speaker 2: point it'd be a non bino winoodyno.
- 55:40Speaker 1: We're having way too much fun with something so so stupid.
- 55:52Speaker 1: If you go to Australia Zoo.
- 55:58Speaker 2: And go to the Africa section, you can be a
- 56:01Speaker 2: non bino winoo and you have an you have an
- 56:06Speaker 2: interaction with some rhinos.
