Warnings. Hey.
1:00
So these warnings are from book trigger warnings.com.
1:04
I don't know if I just put in the first book.
1:06
My bad. Let's just see what happens.
1:08
Let's just see what these are and if there's anything else.
1:11
Assault, Gore. Murder.
1:13
Pedophilia. Rape.
1:15
Yeah, that's pretty. Sums it up.
1:18
I can't think of anything really.
1:20
Just Triggery. Just frightened, Yeah, just all
1:23
the hard. Hitters, all the important
1:25
Honestly, it's fun. Can we just start off with the
1:29
fact that the author's pen name is St.
1:32
Abby, which is stabby? Stabby girl What?
1:35
A great way to start the series, eh?
1:37
It's like, what should I pick as my pen name?
1:39
She had like 4 pen names. Oh.
1:42
She's a busy goyal. She was a busy going.
1:46
RITSTS. Abby, St., Abby.
1:49
Look, thank you for producing your work.
1:51
God's gift. OK, so can I just start off with
1:55
a complaint just straight out the gate?
1:57
You know what? Yeah, start out strong.
2:01
Yes, the second I read an Albert Einstein quote, I was like, if
2:06
this is going to happen through the whole 5 books, I'm.
2:08
Done. Of all people, Einstein.
2:11
You know what? I didn't read a single one.
2:14
Did you just? Skip.
2:15
I just skipped too many extra words.
2:18
And for what? If it's got no relevance, I
2:20
don't want to know. It had very.
2:22
Loose relevance, but also Einstein.
2:24
Like get out of here. Wasn't he the one that
2:27
plagiarized all the work from his own wife?
2:30
I wouldn't be surprised. Like she contributed to all of
2:32
his work and never got a credit. It's giving man behavior.
2:37
So we're coming in hot with the complaints and the man hating,
2:40
so you can kind of see it's. Been a good week.
2:42
It's been great. Real treat.
2:47
Wow, so I just in my notes, I just skip straight ahead to them
2:50
dating. Oh well.
2:52
Yay, yay. We.
2:54
Come in a hard and fast in a coffee shop.
2:55
Chapter one. Yes, she gets hit on by Craig.
2:58
Cancelled immediately. Out of all the names, Craig.
3:01
Yeah, he's supposed to be the hottest man.
3:04
And his name is Craig. This man's bald.
3:08
His back doesn't work. And he.
3:11
Uses a pillow for his ass. Cheek giving 100 giving
3:18
decrepit. Decrepit Craig is not the name.
3:21
No. Anyway, she hates Craig.
3:24
Craig is shit. And then?
3:26
Logan swoops in. Logan's like here.
3:29
I'm paying for your $2.00 muffin.
3:33
You know, it's a real treat, a treat on me.
3:36
So he pulled the reverse psychology where he didn't ask
3:39
for anything in return. He just walked away.
3:41
He was like he was living in his girl energy.
3:44
He wanted her to chase him down. Yeah, chase him.
3:49
Chase him. We love, we no chase in her.
3:53
So can we talk about Lana? First of all, let's let's she's
3:57
our female main character, most of the stories from her
4:00
perspective. What do we think about her?
4:03
Depends. She's conflicting.
4:10
I love her. Do you hate her?
4:14
I don't know. I feel like.
4:14
That one's coming, I. Don't know why.
4:16
It's like AI love her, but is it misogynistic if I hate her?
4:22
No. No.
4:23
But you love her as? Well, I love her, OK?
4:25
What do you love about her? That she just matters people.
4:31
But OK, can I just Why does it always have to be pedophiles?
4:35
Like, give the pedophiles a break.
4:36
Sorry. Right.
4:38
No, but like in these type of books you.
4:41
Don't need a reason, just. Kill the man.
4:43
No. But the reason is he is a man.
4:45
No, but you're like, you know what, I'm going to pivot hard
4:48
left. I'm going to go the opposite
4:49
way. No, But why is it in these
4:51
books, it's always it's like it's OK to kill them because
4:54
they're a pedophile. Fuck the justice system.
4:57
Yeah, like, I get it. It's the vigilante approach.
5:01
But also, why can't they also just be assholes?
5:05
Why have they got to be Pedos? I know.
5:08
I actually realized why I don't like.
5:11
What I'm like? No.
5:15
No, this is our last episode of No.
5:20
The thing I don't like is her weird profiling conversations.
5:24
That's the only. Thing.
5:25
That's the only thing. Everything else 99% I love her.
5:29
Bro, didn't she just go to one side class and then she thinks
5:33
she's an expert profiler on an FBI level?
5:35
You know. What I just I just say when
5:39
women do things well. Go boss.
5:43
How dare she have skills? That's like me doing one yoga
5:47
video on YouTube and then pretending I'm a full blown Yogi
5:50
instructor. I know.
5:52
But what if she's up? I don't know where she's getting
5:55
her information. From You're like I support
5:57
women's Rights and wrongs. Matter of way, do more, do less.
6:05
Well, Logan. OK, so she meets Logan.
6:07
They're flirting with each other, muffins are exchanged or
6:09
whatever. Cool.
6:10
He actually is an FBI profiler. But what confuses me about him
6:15
is he also a detective? They keep calling him Special
6:17
Agent Bennett. He's just a special agent.
6:20
But why do they keep explaining him as a profiler when he's
6:23
clearly a detective? Because he's.
6:26
He's doing the work from start to finish.
6:28
That's true. What profilers are the people
6:31
that sit in like a lab doing statistics right?
6:34
Yeah. And figuring out the psychology
6:37
behind the criminal? They're not.
6:38
And that's and that's it not going out.
6:40
They're not doing the ground work.
6:42
Yeah, true. What is going on?
6:43
There was 2. FBI.
6:45
Profilers, yeah. And fucking Lana, who's
6:49
apparently in her profile herself.
6:52
And oh, she's trained. She's trained.
6:54
She can repress any emotion on her face so that she looks like
6:58
something else. It's.
6:58
Not even that. She just has so much metal on
7:01
her face. She says that and a couple of
7:03
times. But she does say that she
7:05
purposefully went out of her way to train herself.
7:07
Fair to. Pretty much be a spy.
7:10
Yeah. What is her job?
7:13
She's got an eBay store. Like she's drop shipping.
7:18
She's Etsy. Or at least someone drop
7:20
shipping could have this much free time because what is she
7:22
doing? I don't think they.
7:24
I think it's just a cover. I don't actually think they do
7:27
any what. Is her.
7:28
Income. She stole that girl's identity.
7:31
But what's the income from stealing like being someone
7:34
else? The girl that died in the car
7:36
crash that she stole, the identity was rich, so she just
7:39
stole. Just took all the.
7:41
Assets, Yeah, they just transferred it to her.
7:44
I don't actually think she. Works.
7:46
They're like, what's your Social Security number?
7:49
They're like, there's no much job, we're just going to bank
7:51
transfer this stranger everything.
7:53
Yeah, just memo, is that OK? She's literally pulling in Alex
7:58
Volkov. She's got all the time in the
8:00
world, all the income in the world.
8:02
You can't murder people if you don't, if you have no time.
8:06
Yeah, she's got time. Job is murdering people.
8:09
She's. Doing week long stints of
8:10
torture. That is true.
8:12
She's very dedicated to her craft.
8:15
OK, So the biggest problem in their relationship at the gate
8:17
is the fact that she's a murderer and he's an FBI agent
8:21
literally working on a case that ends up being hers.
8:25
Yes, because he was working on a previous case.
8:28
She gets somewhat involved as they start dating and then it
8:32
sort of segues into her. Case Yeah, I honestly feel like
8:37
he is the worst. He's so.
8:39
Bad. He's so bad.
8:41
His whole team at some point was like, I think, I think she is
8:46
the murderer and he's just like, they're just trying to hint to
8:49
him, oh, it might. Not.
8:51
There might not be a bad thing he's so bad at.
8:54
He's young. But why is he so dedicated at
8:56
his job, but also so bad at it? Because he's like I.
9:00
Grind all day. I practically don't have a day
9:02
off. I've got no work life balance.
9:04
Bro grind. All day.
9:06
You're grinding, but you're bad at it.
9:09
What is your output? Where is the murderers?
9:11
Yeah, where's the results? Half his team is corrupt.
9:17
Like it just gets worse and worse.
9:21
That he couldn't even catch the boogeyman.
9:23
I'm. Like the bait was right there.
9:25
Oh, so close, stupid. And The thing is, I liked him at
9:30
the start. Yes.
9:32
Which is so problematic in. Itself he.
9:35
Started out competent. He wasn't desperate.
9:37
He wasn't a little red flaggy. And why was his character up
9:40
turning into a loser? It started.
9:43
It all started when they didn't do foreplay.
9:47
Oh. Dude.
9:49
Don't get me started. Don't get me started.
9:53
Throughout the entire five books, the only time he did oral
9:58
was when they broke up and he was scared that she was going to
10:00
leave his ass. And he's all like like bitch,
10:07
he. Knows that I keep them.
10:10
One occasion of oral sex in the whole, however long this book
10:14
is. He literally was like, I've been
10:16
skipping the good part. Why?
10:19
You seem to have all the time and no time, Sir.
10:22
She. Seems like the type who never
10:24
came, but just wouldn't say anything about it ever to him.
10:28
She just rolls over like. Another one bites dust.
10:35
Bong, bong, bong. That was too exciting.
10:38
I feel like that song is too exciting.
10:40
It's like a sad song. Another one.
10:49
My orgasms I barely knew. OK, we're getting way too far.
10:57
So. Does he get?
10:58
Paid for all the sex show? I'm asking the important
11:02
question. Is he rich?
11:03
I I don't know if he's getting paid for a job.
11:05
Why are they always at her house?
11:08
Why are they never at his? Yeah.
11:11
What even was his place like? He had a nice house.
11:15
It's probably 'cause he was sniffing around, making sure
11:17
that she didn't have guys up there.
11:19
He wasn't an obvious insecure guy.
11:22
He was a low key insecure. Guy.
11:24
He was so jealous. Which is actually worse in my
11:28
opinion. They were so jealous and they
11:30
knew each other for like 5 minutes.
11:32
Oh, A. 100% you know how they were flirting back and forth and
11:36
I think they had already gone on maybe one date?
11:39
She hints like she jokes to him. Oh, I guess you could just find
11:42
my address. He double s down, looks up her
11:46
dress, rocks up on the doorstep, and she opens the door without
11:50
even realizing she's not wearing pants.
11:52
Girl, please. She was so.
11:55
Confident. When she was saying it to him,
11:56
she's like, yeah, it did show up.
11:58
I'm like what he would. And who doesn't check if the
12:01
postie's coming or something? Who doesn't check if they're not
12:04
wearing pants? Who?
12:08
Who? Lana.
12:09
Lana. Doesn't check.
12:10
What if you're wearing your grundies?
12:12
I just feel like if you're pantsless at home alone, right?
12:16
You're in comfy grundies. You're in chunky grundies.
12:20
And if you're wearing a delicious thong, absolutely go
12:23
fuck yourself. You're not.
12:24
You're not. You are lying.
12:27
You're not chilling. You're not all the way up your
12:30
crack. Unless you're expecting a booty
12:34
call later. Crack out, Pussy out.
12:38
Why is the pussy out? Why isn't it?
12:45
You're like I'm comfortable. I'm at home, damn it.
12:48
Oh, the gusset. Check.
12:49
Oh, damn. So she's.
12:50
She free she's. She's getting there.
12:53
You know Grundy's? And then he just initiates so
12:56
hard. Isn't that the first time they
12:58
have proper sex? Yeah, he just bitch.
13:00
My legs are hairy. Like what is going on if he
13:03
just? Works.
13:04
Up. She's not.
13:06
She's got no hair. That girl ain't leaving evidence
13:09
everywhere. She's hair free.
13:11
Could they DNA my long ass like? Yes.
13:16
No, my daddy long legs, not the. Daddies.
13:20
OK, so this is the first time they have sex.
13:21
It's very vanilla. It's very much pee in the
13:24
straight away. Yeah, she has quite possibly the
13:27
most instant female orgasm we've ever talked about in any of
13:30
these books. It was faster than a 2 minute
13:33
noodle. Like what is going on even?
13:37
Maggie is not putting in the work.
13:38
No, I counted 2 pumps. I don't know about you guys
13:45
count of 1/2. That's the fastest orgasm for
13:48
man too. I was just like, you can't tell
13:51
me people are throffing over 2 Pump Logan.
13:54
No. It really turned me off him.
13:57
Yeah, at least. Give us a bit of tension.
14:00
I mean, you're 28, there's no way you're not working out,
14:04
working exactly, running around, taking down.
14:07
He's hitting the gym. 28 is a males peak.
14:10
Not Logan's Logan is actually. It is mid. 60s Oh my God, no,
14:19
please. There's for the 60.
14:21
Year olds, please take it back. So the next day he has to cancel
14:24
because obviously work the boogeyman case is heating up or
14:27
whatnot, so he accidentally left his boxes there.
14:31
And she just wears. Commando when he left, must of I
14:35
just don't. But the real?
14:38
Scary part is her wearing his boxes.
14:41
Yeah, you don't know if that man knows how to wash his own ass.
14:44
He's not too much. What if he had full skinny in
14:47
that? No.
14:48
But you know. You know what the best part is?
14:51
He literally texts her. Keep my boxes warm.
14:57
Like what? They've been one for hours and
15:01
she's. Just farting in them.
15:05
Oh my God, if someone said that to me, I'd be like you are.
15:08
Failed. But then she.
15:10
He messages her three days later or something.
15:13
And she's like, I'm just putting them back on.
15:15
Did you wash them? I don't.
15:18
Think she did. They are the most at that point.
15:20
Just sell them. Befinder.com.
15:25
They're one. Undies.com one.
15:27
In hell. OK, I don't know if it's just
15:30
me. Guys undies are like straight up
15:32
and down. If I put my boyfriends undies
15:33
on, they're not making it up past the thighs.
15:37
Nah. They're not sleeping.
15:39
It would probably fucking bust open and you're like keep my
15:48
boxes warm. I'm like.
15:50
You're like my thighs are saving lives.
15:53
I'm like. Where did you buy these from?
15:55
You have to pick up a replacement.
15:56
Saying Calvin Klein. He would come again, like he
16:00
would come over next time and I'd have like a 5 pack.
16:02
I'd be like Sabi. And, you know, because it's
16:05
American, it's like full, tidy, tiny whities.
16:10
But it. Said boxes.
16:11
So does that mean the silky ones?
16:13
I hate those. They don't breathe.
16:14
Men have the luxury of not needing.
16:17
They. Sure they should.
16:18
They should. But I feel like it's worse
16:20
because they need. More.
16:23
They need more aeration. They do.
16:25
They should just be walking around in mesh pants.
16:27
At the stage. Just a fucking whole fan up in
16:31
there. Couch.
16:34
Couch. Oh my God.
16:38
Enough boxes. I love how we cling on to the
16:43
most ridiculous parts, but no, everyone else probably, like,
16:46
skimmed over this. Where's the fun?
16:49
We know what the people want. It's fun.
16:51
He's running around, not showering if he's at work for
16:54
days on end. That man's stinky although.
16:58
Didn't they at least use a condom?
17:00
Yeah, he. Oh, OK, He popped on out of his
17:07
wallet, but he hadn't had sex in months.
17:09
Oh. It's coming out powdery.
17:13
It's falling apart. Surely they last at least 12.
17:15
Months or something. He said he hadn't had a
17:17
relationship. In years.
17:20
Really. What about?
17:21
Oh mate. Lisa, that was like 3 years ago
17:23
or something. Oh, that makes it even more
17:25
embarrassing how she behaved. There's too many L's in this
17:28
book. Yeah, Lana.
17:29
Lisa Logan. Landon.
17:32
Landon. Is it Landon?
17:35
Leonard. Leonard.
17:36
Well. Landon.
17:37
I had to Scroll down to find him.
17:39
Landon OK, at this point I was thinking Lana's a bit of a pic
17:43
me because their interactions on the phone.
17:46
She was desperate to text him back immediately.
17:49
And she's just as bad. But also, she was like
17:51
apologizing. Yeah.
17:53
And she was like, Oh my God, sorry.
17:55
It's OK that you have to go to work.
17:57
Oh my God. I'm sorry that you have a job,
17:59
actually. Actually, that is the part that
18:02
literally made me want to die. It just survive.
18:06
You're just doing the best. Go be a hero anytime it
18:11
mentioned his job. At this point they're in New
18:15
York. He's hunting down, I think the
18:17
boogeyman she is watching them chew guys that she ends up
18:22
killing. I don't understand how they just
18:24
out of nowhere to strap men and just drag them.
18:28
Like what is she lifting in the gym?
18:30
I know she's so strong, but they keep going.
18:32
She's so petite. Her sidekick, Jake.
18:36
Yes. At the start, I was like, why is
18:39
this idiot just going along with everything?
18:41
I was so sorry. Ride or die.
18:43
Yeah. And then I thought he was her
18:44
actual brother. And I got confused again.
18:47
Yeah, so it was. It took a long time for that to
18:49
sort of unravel. But at the start, he's described
18:52
as her eBay business partner. Yes.
18:55
And then they're making money, swapping shit on Facebook
18:57
Marketplace. That's all I got from.
18:59
Dispatch like she's like we trade, We trade dildos for a
19:05
fucking who's trading dildos for a lawnmower or whatever it is?
19:09
I know or. A car or whatever it was.
19:11
Get your. Own get.
19:13
Your own? That's not sanitary.
19:16
We don't care about the environment that much of my bro.
19:19
Trade Anything else we need to. Get an adult online shop sponsor
19:23
so that we can plug sex toys every time we talk about them.
19:29
Logan doesn't ask questions. What kind of detective is?
19:32
He He's the worst. FBI.
19:36
He could have. Looked up so much more on her,
19:38
but he just tells Hadley to just do a quick check.
19:41
Yes, I'm like just do the check yourself at this point.
19:44
I know. What do you do?
19:46
Just log on to your stupid computer.
19:48
Yeah. What the fuck are you doing,
19:49
bro? He nearly busts her in the first
19:53
book, so after she comes back from offing them two guys, she
19:58
has just got out of the shower and she's already just burned
20:02
her clothes. And if he was like 2 minutes
20:04
earlier, yeah, but then he nearly gets her anyway because
20:06
she didn't wash her hair properly.
20:08
Yeah. She runs her hair through the
20:10
shower and lots of blood was coming out.
20:13
Yeah, and he's like, well, I can't even remember.
20:15
This excuse, it was her finger was cut.
20:18
What? Yeah, bitch.
20:20
There was a lot of blonde. Yeah, she said that her and Jake
20:23
were hanging out right beforehand or something.
20:26
So it's just weird. And he started getting a bit
20:28
suspicious. He's like, I don't.
20:29
Think he's actually gay? So what if they are friends and
20:33
he is straight? It's kind of like that book
20:36
trope where the second they put the Dick in that expected
20:41
exclusivity. And I said, Bro, you haven't
20:43
even had the conversation. They literally, I think we're
20:45
talking for about a week at this point.
20:47
But she. Was just as bad anytime a woman
20:50
literally was in his orbit, so she was like staring them down.
20:54
She was so suspicious when Hadley rocked up and she was
20:58
like, oh, what is this energy between them?
21:00
And then she was all jealous. And he's like, she's literally a
21:03
lesbian, which is the same flip situation with her and Jake.
21:06
Yeah. But she wanted to kill Hadley.
21:10
She's like, I can't. She's not a rapist.
21:11
So I just two wrongs do not make a right.
21:15
People, you're allowed to kill rapists and paedophiles.
21:19
Yes. Take a shot every time rape is
21:21
in these five books. You would be passed away,
21:24
deceased, dead. Murdered by Lana Myers.
21:27
Literally gone. There was like, so much rape in
21:31
this. I mean, it is the whole back
21:34
story. To be fair, at least they gave a
21:38
solid back story. This is the most solid back
21:42
story I've ever read in my life. Because there's some books you
21:45
read and you're like, why would that even matter?
21:48
Hadley tries to like, spook her off.
21:50
It's like second book. The pages are only like 100
21:53
pages long. It's really one big book we're.
21:55
Just going to breeze through all the books.
21:56
It's just. It's one plot, it's one plot.
22:00
There's no time jumps. It's just continual.
22:02
I don't know why it wasn't just one big book.
22:03
I don't know. She tries to spook her and she's
22:08
like, I found out all this information, you're actually
22:10
Kennedy, blah blah blah, and she just doesn't understand.
22:14
She needed all them surgeries. The girl's face was caved in.
22:18
Yeah. Chill, Hadley.
22:19
She came at us so hard. But she just never got a break.
22:23
She had Hadley, and then like a couple of days later, she had
22:25
Lisa trying to fucking piss the kissing contest.
22:30
Lisa's even worse because she had no information.
22:34
She just disliked her because she was rooting.
22:36
Logan. Yeah, that was all it was.
22:38
It was so at. Least at least Hadley was like,
22:41
I don't understand this bitch exactly.
22:45
Yeah, so she was more protective, whereas Lisa was
22:48
just like. Did you know that I used to fuck
22:50
him? No one cares about Lisa.
22:54
Lisa can't even do her job. Lisa, you haven't banged him in
22:57
three whole years. Literally no one cares you're
23:00
But why is she still on the team?
23:03
I don't. Know What did she do?
23:04
She never did anything but be a petty bitch.
23:07
She didn't do a single job. No.
23:10
Except get targeted. And she was like, Oh my God,
23:12
they're targeting me because of Logan.
23:14
And it wasn't Even so funny. She's like, I heard it's because
23:19
I'm your ex-girlfriend. And he literally goes, no, it
23:21
wasn't when the Boogeyman was, like, targeting people.
23:26
Yeah, in Logan's life and writing his name on their chest
23:29
and all that shit, she's like, Oh my God, he's after me.
23:32
I need the full protection to Logan.
23:34
And he's like, you're grabbing all the security, Delana.
23:38
Although that's one of the reasons why I dislike Logan.
23:40
Yes, because fucking why are you acting like Lisa isn't even a
23:44
person anymore? Just because you're not
23:46
together? You're the one who put it in
23:47
her. Oh yeah, Don't take this.
23:50
You can't, Undicker. You can't.
23:53
Be mad that she did it for professional.
23:56
Growth. You can't be mad that you did
23:58
the 1-2 pump in her as well. That was your choice.
24:02
If anything, she deserves better.
24:05
Yeah, it got. Lisa for President 20. 20
24:08
Justice for Lisa Lisa Lisa Justice for Lisa But you know,
24:13
as insufferable as Lisa was, she's harmless.
24:15
And Logan would come back and be like no one gives a.
24:18
Fuck about you. And it's just like my guy.
24:20
Just 'cause you think Lana is perfect, it doesn't mean you
24:23
didn't bang Lisa. This is your undoing, you shat
24:26
where you eat. That is your fault.
24:29
That is your. Problem.
24:31
Actually, Lanas descriptions throughout this whole book,
24:34
while I think about it, it's all over the place, because in the
24:37
first book she was hippie dippie, right?
24:38
And then after that she was hot girl.
24:42
They. Blow up between the two books.
24:43
She had. I don't mean that.
24:45
Like you can't be hot while you're hippie dippie.
24:47
She went. From like, full hippie pants.
24:50
Yeah. To like, tight dresses and shit
24:53
like that. And I'm like, what happened?
24:55
Yeah, she went from dressing from Tree of Life to Sheen sexy.
24:58
Yeah, yeah, she's drop shipping. She's, yeah, she's.
25:03
Picking up the merchandise that she's drop shipping.
25:06
She's going as she goes. So Jake finds out that she's
25:09
dating an FBI agent. He's.
25:11
He's. So mad.
25:13
And she's like, it's fine. I moved my murder room.
25:17
Is she just upstairs now? Bitch.
25:20
I don't, OK? I don't understand how her house
25:25
works. I know it's irrelevant to the
25:27
story. It's very relevant.
25:28
Why is her bedroom downstairs and not upstairs?
25:32
And she has a murder room upstairs, and I'm assuming it's
25:34
like Dexter decked out in PVC plastic.
25:38
She's she's got a lot of equipment out there, but she has
25:41
rooms upstairs, a spare. Room and murder.
25:43
Room. I'm like, why do you have so
25:44
many? Wouldn't your spare room be
25:46
downstairs? Why is your bedroom downstairs?
25:49
Exactly. The layout makes me.
25:52
Crazy. But why is that an excuse?
25:54
Because I moved my murder room upstairs.
25:56
It's OK that I continue this relationship with an FBI agent.
26:01
When he barged in, she was like, oh, luckily I just turned off my
26:04
TV screen with all the cameras on it.
26:08
Oh yes, sitting out in the open, she.
26:11
Wanted to be caught, I feel like.
26:13
She just wanted to break. So Logan keeps Flip Flop
26:16
flapping all over her like every sex scene was just a big old
26:20
flop. Yeah.
26:22
I feel like he's just lying on his back and making her do
26:24
everything. Just.
26:25
I feel like he's just flapping his arms.
26:29
Or just missionary. There's so many problems, Okay
26:32
one. I feel like they just soak when
26:35
they have. Sex.
26:35
Yeah, there's no movement. There's no movement, they're
26:38
just laying there. But they only ever had
26:41
conversations while they were texting, and then after that it
26:44
was sex, murder, sex and literally nothing between them.
26:48
I actually don't know how they fell in love.
26:50
I have no idea. They kept rescheduling dates and
26:53
I was like, why even include that?
26:54
Why do we have to sit here and listen to this many dates being
26:58
rescheduled usages? Whiny Set up a Google Calendar
27:02
at this point. So when they find out the
27:05
Boogeyman is targeting Logan. Yeah, take them forever because
27:08
they really shit out their job. But they realized because he
27:11
actually physically started writing Logan's name in dead
27:14
bodies and they're like, and he's freaking out.
27:16
He's like, Oh my God, he's going to know that I have a new
27:19
boyfriend. No one's going to fucking know.
27:23
And then he comes to her house with all the security detail.
27:27
Yeah. And then kisses her in the front
27:29
of the house, at the street, on the street.
27:31
Google Street map probably drove past and put that online.
27:35
Honestly, at that point, give her a bodyguard and send her to
27:38
fucking Canada. That man's not going.
27:41
Why did he literally show him where he was after the fact?
27:45
You know what pisses me off more than anything?
27:48
So right before she's wrapped, I'm probably jumping ahead.
27:51
He's just like, oh, it's so scary for you to be out in the
27:55
world. But then he goes here, just take
27:57
my keys to my car and go home alone.
28:01
Fucking his. Car that's probably bugged.
28:04
So stupid, the boogeyman takes them out, she'd say.
28:08
I don't know how this man has this much time.
28:11
And she shows up to the hospital pissed because she's been told
28:15
there was a whole incident And then just having this fucking
28:18
teenage problem. Cly it's because.
28:21
Duke tells her Yelp. And then Logan's like, Oh my
28:25
God, I knew we shouldn't have had a nice physical fit man
28:28
bodyguarding her. We should have had an old,
28:30
decrepit man, but. Do you know what he literally
28:33
says? Only single people and people
28:35
with no families are allowed to look after Lana now.
28:39
Imagining. You're an FBI agent.
28:41
You get picked and then you're there and she's like, you're
28:43
only here because you're lonely. I'd be like.
28:47
That's fucking discrimination. If you're good at your job, what
28:50
does it matter if you have a family?
28:53
It was. Well, that was because he was
28:55
taking daughters and the boogeyman was stole.
28:58
Some guy's no one. Even cares about Lana that much.
29:01
Logan, he was overkill. Put.
29:03
Her in a hotel. Exactly.
29:05
But then Duke and her are doing like fucking workouts I.
29:09
Do not. I do not understand why they.
29:11
Were doing workouts you're so good.
29:14
You're worried about her getting off by some psycho man and
29:19
you're gonna burn out all the energy she probably has?
29:21
Yeah. I'm here for it though, because
29:24
them just getting sweaty together in her house.
29:27
And the. Logan was like texting up a
29:28
storm. Just being like, what?
29:30
Who's this Duke guy? I thought an 80 year old man was
29:32
coming over. You're that worried about your
29:35
girlfriend that you're just going to get this old retiree
29:40
some? Trigger happy guy.
29:41
Sitting on the front step, just like.
29:44
He's out there with the shotgun. You know what the best part,
29:48
though, was when he just got the security detail and she barely
29:52
knows who his team is, right? And they all just barge in.
29:55
Who's in there? Lisa.
29:57
Straight up pouting? Yeah.
29:59
And then she was like how? Dare you?
30:02
How dare you not be grateful that all these fucking
30:06
detectives are in your house? But Logan, you're an idiot.
30:10
It's not everyone else's job to babysit your new girlfriend of
30:14
one week. Well, when they were in the
30:15
hospital, after their little rage, Lana disappears.
30:20
Good for her. And they're like trying to get
30:23
them to find Lana. And Hadley's like, no, I'm going
30:25
to try find the girl he's probably trying to murder right
30:27
now. Exactly.
30:28
That's more important. Lana's fine, the.
30:31
Actual target, not Lano. Who?
30:34
If they can't find her, how's he gonna find her?
30:36
Exactly. She had a secret hideaway, but
30:38
can we breakdown why she left and wanted to break up with
30:41
Logan? Yes, go for it.
30:42
I can't remember. OK, so.
30:46
I will look so. She was breaking.
30:49
She was breaking up with him because he didn't call her.
30:53
And then after Duke told her that they got into a crash, she
30:57
freaked out. And she's like, I'm going to the
30:59
hospital. No one's telling me no.
31:00
Everyone refused to tell her what was happening and then she
31:04
shows up and Logan's like, what the fuck are you doing here?
31:07
The boogeyman could be here. Like.
31:09
The boogeyman's going to walk into a hospital like there is a
31:12
million people he. Just walks out out of the kids
31:15
ward. He's just chilling in reception.
31:19
He's like, I'm just waiting. He's.
31:20
Wearing a wig like. Just.
31:23
Little mustache. Look, honestly, hospital
31:26
security apparently isn't that bad.
31:28
The boogeyman could be in there, but I mean also, was she being
31:32
over the top? No and yes.
31:34
Yes and no, because, OK, after and she's driving to the
31:36
hideaway. She's chatting to Jake about
31:38
what happened and then Jake, who doesn't even want her dating the
31:42
FBI agent, goes. Are you sure you didn't
31:44
overreact? Who cares?
31:45
She's breaking up with the person you want her to break up
31:48
with. Just go with it.
31:49
Jake, what are you doing? She's allowed to be mad.
31:51
Jake is not for the girls. No, no.
31:54
And there's even. More of a betrayal later when he
31:57
turns bisexual. Sneaky.
32:01
Oh, sneaky straights, I tell you.
32:03
Sneaky. Straights.
32:05
Can't trust them. But they break up and so.
32:08
Sorry, I'm just like. Anyway.
32:10
We need to go back-to-back to the.
32:12
Place is the new moon moment. It's a possibility she's.
32:21
Sitting in a hideout, just like rotating so.
32:25
Half circles only. And then she's like, oh reset.
32:29
She just decides that maybe it's a good time to go kill.
32:33
Someone. Why not?
32:34
You're off the hook, love. You're off the hook, you know.
32:37
You just break up with your FBI boyfriend that's stressed about
32:41
your safety, Yes. Like he's not going to be
32:43
watching you every move. Well, he didn't know where she
32:45
was, so they are. Like.
32:47
How? So bad.
32:49
That is so bad. I understand.
32:50
I don't understand. I know her.
32:52
There's no cameras in the warehouse, but surely at some
32:56
point someone has seen her car. But did she switch cars?
32:59
Yeah, in the warehouse. Yeah, yeah.
33:01
So they're trying to hunt down the boogeyman and then Lana's
33:05
like, you know what? Well, hell, Chilling Hadley's
33:09
step dad. Oh, that was such a side
33:11
mission. Appreciate it.
33:13
I like the side mission. OK, this is the bit that's just
33:16
making sense. She pushed.
33:18
He's a big guy. She pushed him uphill and then
33:22
dumped his body in water and it just was floating there.
33:25
And then they found it in a couple.
33:26
Days tried to like, I think it was a couple of hours.
33:29
She literally got home and he was floating and she was trying
33:33
to push him underwater. And his face was like on the
33:35
news 2 hours later, but she took the child that he currently had
33:39
and gave her to a lady from her home.
33:43
To got her name. God bless.
33:44
They've got Lana at in the FBI office at this point because
33:47
she's come back. Why would you go in at that
33:50
moment too? They he showed, remember she was
33:53
having a shower. Yeah.
33:54
And she had like a gun in the shower and he just broke into a
33:58
house. Oh, it's because they broke up
34:00
and he hadn't even communicated with her.
34:02
And he decides, you know, the best thing to do is, even though
34:04
she thinks the boogeyman's after her is to literally break into
34:08
her apartment or her house. Yes, and while she's in the
34:11
shower, just walk in there. Yeah, yeah, I.
34:14
I wish she got shot, because he deserves it.
34:16
At that point. If your ex-boyfriend that you
34:19
broke up with barges into your house in the shower while you're
34:22
naked absolutely get fucked. Nikki.
34:27
Nikki. Nikki Also, it's like I'm
34:30
refusing to leave until we fix this.
34:33
Oh. Haven't we all heard that
34:35
before? Nothing could be worse when you
34:38
just want to get away from someone.
34:41
She just got entangled into the relationship again.
34:44
Don't you hate it when you get back into relationship when you
34:46
don't even want to get back into it like you've been trying to
34:48
get out? Of it get.
34:49
Trapped in you. Get in.
34:50
You just get ensnared again. Yeah.
34:54
Where was Logan's actual apology, though?
34:56
I didn't. He didn't have one.
34:58
He's just said I'm. Not leaving until we're together
35:01
again. This is why.
35:04
And he's like, it's my job that's the problem.
35:07
Yeah, maybe it's your poor communication skills.
35:12
Can we talk? About.
35:13
Lana's plastic surgery. Yeah.
35:15
Her face is more metal than bone, Logan is just an average
35:19
guy and he never sees anything amiss with her face.
35:23
And she's just naturally beautiful.
35:25
Yes, I reckon they did that much work, but that much work to
35:29
cover. Up the scars as well.
35:31
That's convenient. She must to be in the world's
35:34
best plastic. Search.
35:35
She's roll it well, she said. He came from Russia.
35:37
Okay. She paid him a lot more.
35:40
I just feel like surely some of that would be noticeable where
35:42
you'd be like, oh. They've.
35:44
Have to have something done to their.
35:46
Face It's book math. It never makes sense.
35:48
True. I just love how Hadley ends up
35:52
learning more about Lana within 5 minutes and then she Logan's
35:56
ever known this entire time dating her?
35:58
Yeah, but she's OK with it. She's like, you know what?
36:00
It's fine. She killed my stepdad.
36:02
Yeah, she's for the girls. And then she likes her from then
36:05
on out, Which as the boyfriend you'd think is suspicious
36:09
considering she was so up in her grill.
36:11
And I hated her. He's so ignorant.
36:15
Wouldn't an expert profiler, We're talking top tier FBI
36:19
level. Wouldn't they knuckle down the
36:21
gender by now? They keep.
36:23
Going. Back and forth about it.
36:25
Knuckle it down. That's on her, though, being
36:28
smart because she was wearing weighted bags and big shoes.
36:31
And yeah, customized shoes and everything.
36:33
So while they're looking for like a six foot £450 man, it's
36:40
just this small baby. But get it right.
36:43
Get it right. Because they act so scientific,
36:45
Ohh, there was no hesitation. And that means this, There was
36:48
this, and that means that so get the gender right.
36:51
I don't know how this man has his own team, honestly.
36:55
He's the worst. He's so.
36:57
Stupid. Imagine if your boss in this
36:59
important detective team kept ragging on and on about his
37:02
stupid girlfriend that he met on fucking Tinder 5 minutes ago.
37:05
They did beat on Tinder, but. I'd be like bitch.
37:08
We all have families, too. This isn't just about you.
37:12
Yup, you pompous ass, you little butt hole.
37:16
Did you get the five that Logan just started hating his job?
37:19
He's like, I just want to go home all day and bang my
37:21
girlfriend. Yeah, OK, 15 years old.
37:24
Yeah. He was so regressive.
37:26
He just wanted analogy. He just wanted a break.
37:30
Yeah, like have a holiday. My dude go to Hawaii.
37:33
The serial killer's still going to be there when you get back.
37:35
Honestly, you're not even finding the next.
37:37
Point Your team sucks anyway. They wouldn't have made any
37:40
progress. You're telling me Lisa just got
37:42
a promotion because if she had sex with you and that's OK?
37:47
She's. She must have the fun and
37:50
fanciest cooch. I don't even get that coochie
37:53
queen mad at yourself, bro. SA.
37:56
Johnson comes into it, which is the typical decrepit, the
38:05
typical Army jock vibe guy who is the rival agent on the FBI
38:12
team. And he's there.
38:13
He's trying to take names and whip butts because he's like,
38:16
what are you guys doing, you guys kindergartening this whole
38:19
case? You're fucking it up.
38:21
He has a point. He He has a point.
38:23
I'm also buddy. Johnson.
38:25
But he's no bet. Why?
38:26
Because he's cracking worse. He's a bad guy.
38:30
He can't even close a case. He never fucking found the
38:34
original killer, He. Closes cases.
38:36
Just not in a conventional, just not evidence kind of way.
38:39
Yeah, just. Thought.
38:41
He's. He's not a politics, OK?
38:43
He's about the politics. He's about climbing the social
38:46
ladder and he's about getting ahead.
38:47
He but. There's. 1.
38:51
There out there. Yeah.
38:53
But. He's their reasons.
38:55
They're not correct results, but their results he's some.
38:57
Reason. Lana is so traumatized because
39:01
he couldn't do his job. You know what he does Get
39:05
results. Because, because she.
39:06
Cleared out a whole town, a whole town of rapists and only
39:12
started with SSA Johnson. Anyway, justice for SSA Johnson.
39:20
Johnson is king. Johnson and Johnson and Johnson
39:23
baby. Powder them thighs up because
39:25
he's. Doing all of him and his Thunder
39:28
thighs are coming in to wet booties into shape and he's like
39:31
fucking Logan. Get your shit together.
39:33
What are you doing if you do not fucking get your?
39:36
Nemo leaves together. Nemo, He's only down there
39:39
because he's like, he's going to work out.
39:41
Who the real killer? Is and I'm going to lose my job.
39:43
True. I'm going to lose my job.
39:47
He's like this case is sloppy floppy.
39:49
And you guys? This is picking it off.
39:51
Murdered in the end. Or is he set free?
39:54
I. Don't know.
39:55
I'm assuming he gets murdered. I don't know.
39:57
I'm assuming painfully. Hopefully.
39:59
I think he was the painful ones. One of the painful ones.
40:03
Nah. Surely.
40:05
OK, my bad. I should be nice.
40:08
Rode harder for my king, no about his ending.
40:15
I know what he's doing. Look, I have to root for
40:17
somebody, OK? High excess.
40:19
Johnson. OK, Logan was giving at the
40:21
start, but then he was not giving.
40:23
So who else am I supposed to last trip long to?
40:25
Fucking. Fucking who?
40:29
Who? Duke.
40:33
Duke. Yeah, we did love Duke.
40:34
I feel like he was a bit of a himbo.
40:35
Oh. We love Himbo for it.
40:37
I love a golden retriever, Himbo.
40:40
Love it and he's always down for an alibi.
40:42
Like he just he's cool. He's always down for Lana's
40:46
rights. Fuck her safety.
40:48
She can do whatever she wants. If she wants to walk into the
40:51
house with the killer, that's her, right?
40:54
Exactly. Now it was getting to be like
40:57
probably Book 3:00-ish or something.
40:58
I don't fucking. Let's see.
41:00
Yeah. But anyway, I could not.
41:02
At this point in the books, I was eating this up because I was
41:05
like, I cannot wait for Logan to feel like such a full idiot for
41:09
not realizing that his girlfriend was the murderer.
41:11
This whole time I was just like. Almighty.
41:15
Almighty, the reveal did not give at the end, but it was
41:19
worth it at the. Time.
41:19
It was not the worst. I was consuming this I.
41:22
Feel like he could have been more outraged.
41:25
I mean, he did it all the way wrong, but we'll talk about it
41:28
when we get there. We get there because after
41:30
immediately after that, she murders Morgan, which was more
41:35
of the rapey one on the list. Yeah, he was.
41:38
He was just there because he had wanted that moment for his
41:42
entire life. He didn't care what the others
41:45
were doing. But she just walks into his
41:47
house. Just walks right in.
41:49
And then she was all like he he Can I use your phone?
41:52
I'm lost. And he was like, what an
41:55
opportunity to be the scum I am. Just another day being me.
42:00
Just another dying. And then she she.
42:04
Whooped his ass. She whooped his ass.
42:07
She burned his house down. I love how no one knows who she
42:10
is because they thought she died originally after that attack.
42:13
Yeah. So she's always coming in.
42:15
Like, don't you know who I am? And she.
42:17
Bitch. You look totally different.
42:19
I know, but it's so good at the same time because she'll say
42:22
something that they said and they're like, oh.
42:24
Yeah. They're trembling, quaking.
42:26
They're pissing themselves as their Dick was still attached
42:29
pussy. Quivering.
42:31
Yes. Gooche contracting.
42:37
Taint. Rippling.
42:38
I just don't get it. I.
42:42
Got just OK, can we just talk about the fact that it's a
42:46
revenge book? Uh huh.
42:47
Why does it always have to be? Rape.
42:50
For it to be bad enough. And this is in movies.
42:53
Can we not just? Murder someone.
42:55
Can't we just have feminine rage anymore?
42:58
Just rage. It.
43:00
Does like he walked in front of you?
43:02
Right. You know.
43:04
He cut in front of you in line at the fucking post office.
43:07
At McDonald's, he spilt your coffee.
43:10
He didn't wave when you let him in the traffic lane like what is
43:13
going on? Because it's always these trauma
43:16
back stories where the woman has to be.
43:18
Oh no, I'm a survivor. I feel like I love the like.
43:22
It actually is a good reason. But it was a lot.
43:26
It was a lot to take in. I was not ready.
43:28
I was not ready. For the entire trauma.
43:31
But you know what? It was not censored, not even a
43:34
little bit. No, but you know what eked me
43:36
out is when I think one of the first time she was hooking up
43:39
with Logan. It might have been the very
43:40
first time she goes. I cringe waiting for the moment
43:44
that my whole body seizes up and doesn't accept him for the sex
43:48
or something. But because it's Logan, it was
43:50
all good. I was like, is that really an
43:52
accurate representation of how a traumatized person would they?
43:55
'D be like, oh, it's OK. Because it's Logan.
43:58
Sorry, that's sounds really good in a book, but it's kind of
44:03
downplaying. I don't know.
44:05
Yeah, yeah, yeah. In a way I was like.
44:09
Yeah. So they decide, OK, we've got to
44:14
go for a trip to Delaney Grove as a team.
44:17
And of course he's like Do we bring Lana?
44:19
Do we not bring Lana? Is she your pet dog?
44:22
Oh, I know she. Has a life, Sir.
44:25
You've been dating two weeks. Apparently the queen she is was
44:28
like, absolutely. She's too scared to be alone
44:32
after the boogeyman. Yeah, she's in for the murder.
44:35
She's like, absolutely murder them all.
44:38
But how convenient, convenient. What's that?
44:41
How convenient that they're just a town over because she can run
44:44
to her house from Delaney Grove. And why It made it seem like
44:48
there shouldn't have been just right next to each other.
44:50
Because she changed her whole identity.
44:52
She went through all this effort.
44:54
Yeah, it made it seem like she was going across the state.
44:57
And they're like, no, it's just a stone's throw away.
44:58
It's like, what? Yeah, imagine if they just got
45:01
one of those baby strap on things and she could just be on
45:04
his back. Yeah, yeah.
45:06
That's the energy it's giving. Just a little praying, oh.
45:09
Really. I think this is the moment that
45:12
Leonard started putting it together.
45:15
Oh, how convenient that Lana's where all the murders are and
45:19
she's tired. But he wasn't even mad.
45:22
Yeah. I don't get why none of these
45:24
people actually care about their job.
45:25
Nah. So they tracked down Diana from
45:28
Delaney Grove. Yes, and she just.
45:30
Spills the entirety. Where has this lady been this
45:33
whole time? Why?
45:34
Has she not? Well, to be fair, her son was
45:37
threatened. Yeah, So she couldn't do
45:39
anything. But it wouldn't he be all grown
45:41
up now? Yeah, he was grown up.
45:44
Well then, you should have gone to the police.
45:45
Yeah, who sucks that up? They were fucked.
45:49
Even if you're the most fucked person, why would you be like,
45:52
yeah, I'm going to get my son to be a ringleader and rape these
45:57
kids. Yeah, the whole situation.
46:00
On the street. Was the weirdest shit I've ever
46:02
read in my life. And also who recorded it?
46:06
Yeah, I I don't think it ever came out.
46:08
Who recorded it? What kind of camcorder are they
46:10
holding? Like one of those big ass
46:11
camcorders from back in the day, literally years and years later.
46:16
Why the OK? This is the bit where it all got
46:18
muddy to me because it was too much.
46:19
It's too much. So essentially, SSA Johnson
46:24
framed their dad and instead of just putting him in jail like a
46:28
normal person, they made him swallow nails.
46:30
Which is why the the nails and the house and stuff comes into
46:34
it. And they raped him.
46:35
Yeah. And I was like why?
46:37
I don't understand why, and it's gross, so I'm sorry in advance
46:43
why people are so against gays, right?
46:47
They can't. They can't handle gays in their
46:49
life, right? This in this particular town.
46:52
But then they raped. Them.
46:54
Yeah. It's God's sin that they're gay,
46:57
but we're going to rape. Them Exactly.
46:59
Like you're the problem, I'm like it's.
47:02
You non consensual is the problem not the the actual
47:06
method of sex. I just.
47:08
And the way he. Talked about it.
47:10
He's like, his butt hole was so tight.
47:12
I was like like. What?
47:13
And now? It's a son, so not I'm like.
47:19
And this is. Like this is like.
47:20
And they use like hills. Have eyes in this town I.
47:23
Just don't understand how he was like, oh, his butt hole's so
47:27
tight it's better than her vagina at this point.
47:31
But then was like and then called in the F word.
47:34
Yeah, I'm like your. Logic is not logically, no, it's
47:38
not Logically, it's. Just.
47:42
Bamboozled. But that's the bit where the
47:43
book just went COO, COO, na na so much.
47:46
And I was listening to the audio book and I had it on like double
47:49
speed. And I was like, am I even
47:51
hearing this correctly? Why are they raping the dad?
47:54
I thought they were just perverts because she was a. 16
47:57
year old girl and they were trying to get old mate to rape
48:00
her because he's the brother. So the reason the sheriff went
48:03
batshit crazy is because his daughter was raped, tortured and
48:07
put in the street. So then he was like, we must do
48:10
it to these people we're framing.
48:12
And he's like the children must feel the pain of what my
48:14
daughter had to do. OK, also I that doesn't make
48:17
sense. Like they're children.
48:19
Why is Kyle not the first suspect?
48:22
They all knew he was deranged. The reason he went to that town,
48:25
like the mum Pomp d'boff, was because he was killing animals
48:29
and stuff. It was just.
48:32
Fucked. How is the whole town?
48:34
OK? They gossip about it.
48:36
They've talked about it. This happened years ago.
48:38
And how is Let it go? Electively OK to let it go, but
48:41
at the same time when it's the end and she's getting her
48:44
revenge and they do like a purge situation, they do a big
48:46
announcement on the TV and everything, they're like.
48:48
She's all you. Guys covered this up for years
48:51
and years. If I was sitting watching myself
48:53
on the TV screen, I'd be like, 'cause I knew I didn't do.
48:56
Anything. Yeah, not everyone can know that
48:58
that happened for real. Not everyone that happened in
49:01
front of their house. Yes.
49:03
So what if you're just an innocent person in the town?
49:06
That had. Nothing to do with.
49:07
It but I think it was poor so they couldn't pretend.
49:12
Yeah, but I'd be like what happened 10 years ago?
49:15
Yeah, I'd be pissed. I'd be like, I'm like your side,
49:18
OK? I would be getting out there.
49:20
I'd be like see you. She kills Kyle, she goes into a
49:25
haunted house and just fucking chops up the security guards in
49:30
front of everyone. She.
49:31
Cuts one up with a chainsaw and they're like, oh, it's so real.
49:34
You're telling me you're in a backwards town where you can't
49:38
even watch the TV and they have that much special effects.
49:41
Yeah, as if they're like, this is way better than last year.
49:45
Yeah, The local town purposefully puts together a
49:48
haunted house and they depict rape on purpose to scare the
49:53
teenagers about having sex and going out at night.
49:56
Yes, what the fuck? I'm like your whole town.
50:00
No wonder why they thought it was part of the show.
50:02
Yeah, and that's how Kyle got away with a lot of his rape,
50:05
because he was doing it in the rape section of the fucking
50:07
haunted house. But.
50:09
Like, have you met Kyle? He's that resident rapist.
50:12
He's our OGI. Don't understand this town.
50:15
Yeah, it's giving House of Wax or?
50:18
Have you seen House of? Works.
50:19
No, I haven't. I do not watch scary movies or.
50:23
The hills have eyes like Colty small town.
50:26
I don't even know. After that whole situation, he
50:29
still hasn't clocked on, no, and Leonard is giving him hints
50:32
left, right and centre, calling her she from now on like he
50:35
doesn't even. Keep saying our girl he's like,
50:38
it's not like who boy other girl do we know that happens to be
50:42
everywhere we are. And Logan's too caught up acting
50:46
like Lisas and inconvenience. He's too caught up and stupid
50:50
shit. Lisas and Girls girl.
50:52
She's just keeping him. So on his toes, that line is
50:57
sneaking through. You've got Hadley helping her,
51:01
Lisa not realizing she is. I was getting so frustrated.
51:05
I think this is this is when I texted you.
51:07
Leonard. Knew for way too damn long.
51:09
Yeah, and he figured it out himself.
51:11
Like, I know Hadley figured some stuff out, but it was confirmed
51:14
to her way early on, so I feel like that made sense because she
51:16
had a personal reason. Leonard didn't have a personal
51:19
reason to cover it up. No, the reason he covered it up
51:23
is because he listened to what happened.
51:26
They found out what happened. They found out all the traumatic
51:29
stuff. He's like on board with them
51:31
being trash and was just like, you know what, I think I'm just
51:34
gonna let her do her. Play it out.
51:36
And was this the night that four people died?
51:40
Because Logan didn't do shit? He was too busy trying to get
51:42
back to Lana one night and. Bone and then.
51:45
That's when SSA Johnson came in. And he's like.
51:47
What the fuck? Like you're too busy getting
51:49
laid. Then he's like four people died
51:52
tonight and literally you haven't done anything.
51:54
Here's. Logan's whole team is standing
51:57
up for Lana doing the work, so SSA Johnson doesn't get fired.
52:01
From his job, but they're like. On strike or something, they're
52:04
purposefully fumbling at their job.
52:07
I just don't it's. Weaponized incompetence.
52:09
Job edition. Job edition.
52:12
There's this slow build up because like I said, Leonard
52:15
knows for way too long. So there's this bit where
52:19
Leonard like he's had enough Logan being an idiot and he's on
52:23
the verge of revealing Lanas. True identity to Logan, right?
52:27
Yeah, OK, this bit made me quake and make me want to leave the
52:31
planet. He starts off the conversation
52:33
and he keeps edging Logan and Logan's like just out with it,
52:35
out with it. And he's like, just so you know,
52:39
Lana's not currently fucking anyone else, bro.
52:42
Why is that the first thing you've got to reassure him She's
52:45
a full. Murderer I.
52:47
Think because he was so sussed that she was sleeping with like,
52:50
oh, it's because of Jake. He was so sad.
52:52
How did you? Start that conversation with
52:55
just so you know, at least she's not double dicking someone she's
52:58
not sleeping with. Jake, she's she's.
53:00
Murdering. People.
53:02
He not only says that, but he also goes.
53:04
She hasn't even had her. Her body count is not even high
53:08
in the sexual department. OK I.
53:10
Think he's just trying to ease him in, like?
53:12
What information is that? Because even if he said she's
53:15
had two ex boyfriends, it would be too many for Logan.
53:18
I actually think the reason he was doing that was because they
53:21
thought that Jake was the mastermind behind it and Lana
53:24
was the one killing people, so they were sleeping and like
53:27
manipulation. So I think that's why he's like
53:30
Lana's not getting manipulated by because she's sleeping with
53:33
Jake. She's just, she's just
53:35
murdering. So Logan finds that out.
53:37
Except he's got the story wrong, of course.
53:40
No one in their department could get anything right, even
53:42
Leonard. So he thinks she stole the
53:45
identity of a different girl, but he doesn't realize she's
53:48
Victoria. He thinks that she's the other
53:52
girl. And he comes home.
53:53
And Rage fucks her. Actually, I was done at that
53:59
point. I was.
54:00
All bored. For this book, because I you
54:03
know how authors do this thing where they do like a little
54:08
casual rape because that's what it is.
54:12
And then they're like, but they'll be in the girl's head
54:15
and they'll be like, yeah, but it's okay.
54:18
They justify it. Yeah, they justify it because
54:20
they did it identify because remember the 1st 16 and that and
54:24
but they were like, but you didn't say no.
54:26
Logan was already trashed. In my mind, he was.
54:28
Trashed. By this point.
54:29
But he was definitely. Why unforgivable at this stage?
54:33
Why would you do that? That's what I don't get.
54:37
You've learned that your girlfriend has been lying to you
54:39
and everything. It's because he was trying to
54:40
get his Dick in one more time because he knew he was going to
54:43
be single for a bit, yeah. And he was mad at her.
54:45
And then they went into her head and she was like, I know he's
54:49
figured it out and he's mad at me and I'm just going to take on
54:51
his anger. Girl, so you're being.
54:55
Traumatized again. And you're cool with it, yeah.
54:58
But then he goes, if I knew it was Victoria, I would have
55:01
handled it better. He should have handled it better
55:03
from the start. I.
55:07
OK, foul behavior, negative points for Logan Bennett.
55:11
Of course, why even speak to her?
55:14
To clarify if he's even right? What if she was telling the
55:16
truth the whole time and Leonard's hunch was wrong and
55:18
he's just rage fucked his girlfriend for no reason?
55:21
And like, tied her to bed. Didn't put clothes on her,
55:24
didn't let her put clothes back on.
55:25
Literally handcuffed her to the Ben and didn't let her speak.
55:28
He had intense, scary eye contact.
55:31
Yeah. So after that, obviously she
55:33
fucks off, she does the disappearing act again, which
55:36
fair. And then fucking Jake is just
55:38
there, casually reveals himself to Logan and Logan's all like.
55:43
What the fuck? And then?
55:44
Fucking Jake's horrible lecture. I get that what?
55:47
Logan did was wrong, but Jake's lecture bored the fuck out of me
55:51
so long. It was such a guilt trip.
55:54
Logan's an idiot for doing that, and he shouldn't have done that.
55:57
Yeah, but Jake's guilt trip, which filled in all the actual
56:01
information. Imagine.
56:03
Being on the receiving end of that lecture.
56:05
He could have got that if he listened to Hadley.
56:07
Yeah, he just refused that because, you know, can't listen
56:10
to another woman. OK, is this a miscommunication
56:14
trope or what? I don't know because they never
56:16
speak properly about anything. They don't do anything.
56:19
They don't care if I have sex and kill people.
56:23
They're clearing out the town and she's like killing the
56:25
sheriff. Love that for her.
56:27
I love how she just decides to take on the entire sheriff
56:30
department in the entire town that was.
56:31
The stupidest shit I've ever seen.
56:34
She's out here stabbing people daily and she's like, I'm going
56:38
to go full in there with all the guns in the world against
56:41
fucking 30 people. You know how she gets shot?
56:45
Yeah, at some point it was very Hunger Games where they all had
56:48
cameras zooming in on her somehow, like Jake had all the
56:50
cameras zooming in and they were like, oh is she injured and
56:52
Logan's like. Oh my God, I hope.
56:54
It's just a shoulder grazed baby who's shooting at her because
56:57
you know how she was down at one point and she was speaking to
57:00
Jake on the headset and she was like, remember?
57:02
When we were little kids and we enjoyed our time together and
57:07
like, I'm totally lying. And he's like, you're not
57:09
allowed to say goodbye. I'm like bro who's shooting at
57:12
her at this point because I'm imagining Constant.
57:14
Why? I just don't understand why she
57:17
went and cut up the judge, the other guy or lawyer or whatever,
57:21
whatever. But then she was like, you know
57:23
what? I'm just going to have a
57:24
shootout with 30 deputies. And Jake says because she wanted
57:27
to die. Yeah, that was kind of part of
57:29
her plan. She kind of knew she had to just
57:31
go out all gums blazing, revealed her face.
57:35
Meanwhile, Logan. 'S having this full mental.
57:37
Breakdown and. They're like what is happening?
57:40
And he's like throwing shit around the fucking office and.
57:44
He's like, I won't be able to get down the suit quick enough,
57:47
so isn't the town a millimeter away?
57:49
I don't understand at this point.
57:51
So the big, big reveal at the end is that it was Lanas,
57:57
Daddy's best friend. Yes, that stitched him up, which
58:00
is Jakes. Dad.
58:01
Yeah. So Jakes dad was in love with
58:05
Lanas mom and. Bullshit like.
58:09
This was the Oji killer because he was killing him, raping
58:13
people that look like hunting. Adeline all over again.
58:16
But The thing is, they thought it was because of Lana.
58:20
They were like, they all looked like Lana and then someone was
58:23
like, well, Lana looked like a lot like her mum, yeah, and.
58:27
It's three months later, wasn't it?
58:29
Yeah, it was. Three months later, Logan had
58:31
been working nonstop to find out who the killer was.
58:34
Because, you know, Lana can't make it easy for anyone.
58:36
She's just got to make everyone do the work.
58:39
He thought he could get in her good books again if he found the
58:42
OG murderer. Yeah, and it's like get.
58:45
A loan. Lo and behold, they had already
58:47
found him. They had one of the original
58:51
girls. That one murdered sister as his
58:54
nurse. So she was slowly poisoning him.
58:56
Yeah, and then apparently Katie had already taken out the
58:59
catheter, so we should sit and piss or something all day long
59:02
and. Then Logan comes in and he gives
59:04
him the big villain speech kind of thing.
59:06
Yeah, he's like, you know what? I'm gonna get my girl back.
59:09
She's alive. Had least like they're alive.
59:12
You know what's stupid? She'd already done the work.
59:14
Yeah. Logan, we don't want you to come
59:17
in here and shorten his misery. He's miserable.
59:20
He can't talk, he can't move, He's saturated in piss.
59:23
The fact that you go in there and kill him is doing him a
59:27
favour, you idiot. Yeah, Hadley, She's just like
59:30
Jake's enough the two times we had sex.
59:33
He's enough for me to lose my job and disappear off the
59:37
planet. And what was the weird
59:39
heteronormativity of it all? Like, Don't make her straight at
59:44
the end after saying you're a lesbian the whole time.
59:47
Well, she never said she was a lesbian.
59:49
That was they kept. Telling her that she was.
59:51
Yeah, she was, said I. She literally said she wasn't
59:54
comfortable with men and Logan was fine because he's a dumb,
59:56
dumb and really bad at his job. He just said you're a lesbian.
59:59
Yeah, he just decided. This is why he's bad at his job.
1:00:02
He makes assumptions and goes with it as if it's factual.
1:00:05
Yeah, no wonder why he couldn't find anybody.
1:00:08
He's no good. But then he's just like he finds
1:00:10
it in Greece and she's just bored out of their mind.
1:00:14
They're just bored. And then of course, he comes up
1:00:17
to her and then they're dancing and she's like.
1:00:20
Yeah, how do? You prepare that relationship,
1:00:23
even Lana. How do you?
1:00:25
Even forgive him. Didn't he talk about it?
1:00:27
And she's like, it's OK. I knew that you had known at
1:00:30
that point. And it's fine.
1:00:33
Women in these kind of books always do that.
1:00:35
They forgive the most atrocious things with barely an apology
1:00:40
at. All.
1:00:42
Yup. Oh.
1:00:43
Pharrell also when they hook up at the very end, no fool play,
1:00:48
he. Literally just.
1:00:49
Sticks it in what a way to end the the series to be.
1:00:53
Honest. What a way to end it?
1:00:55
What should we rate this one out of?
1:01:00
How many? Chewed up pieces of hair.
1:01:02
Gum out of five? Yes.
1:01:04
She spits the gum into Lisa's hair.
1:01:06
Gum hairs out of five. Gummy hairs?
1:01:09
Yeah. How?
1:01:10
Many. Gummy hairs out of five.
1:01:13
Look, I started off thinking it was a three.
1:01:16
As in, I liked it, and now I've just ranted about it for a whole
1:01:19
hour. I feel like it's a two.
1:01:21
Yeah, it was OK. It's a 2 vibe.
1:01:24
You know it's a. Bit and I think it's the first.
1:01:26
Book the original original original murderer that he was
1:01:29
working on. The case that before they even
1:01:31
started dating, when he had the brain wave, that it was a person
1:01:35
obsessed with Leonardo da Vinci. I was like.
1:01:39
What? It's the only time he did any
1:01:42
work. But why was he, like, a genius
1:01:44
in that instant and then every other time he's an idiot?
1:01:47
Because he's like, there's a little bit of clay residue.
1:01:50
So this guy was clearly making masks of all the women's faces
1:01:52
that he saw as symmetric. Has to be gold or.
1:01:56
Bronze. Look for people who are making
1:01:58
these masks on Etsy and. Will as that's like how did he?
1:02:05
Come out. Out with that at the gate, so.
1:02:07
Hard and devolve so heavily. That's what I mean.
1:02:12
How did he start at A+ plus Logan?
1:02:15
And consistent. And like an A.
1:02:18
Logan is not a consistent king. He went so far down and I feel
1:02:22
like she stayed consistent the whole time.
1:02:24
You know what it was? It was this stress and lack of
1:02:27
sleep. Because they're constantly
1:02:28
talking about his lack of sleep. Yeah, I feel like he could be
1:02:32
really great, but all he does is rush home, have sex with her and
1:02:36
go back to work. The only time they have a
1:02:38
conversation is in the first book.
1:02:40
Yes, And he only cares about her physical safety.
1:02:42
He does not care about her emotional safety.
1:02:44
Yeah. So the entire time he doesn't
1:02:46
ask. How are you coping with the fact
1:02:48
that the boogeyman tried to murder you?
1:02:50
He's just like, just get people tailing her because I can't do
1:02:53
it. Yeah.
1:02:54
Or. She's coping really well.
1:02:56
I thought she'd cope worse. You haven't fucking asked.
1:02:58
Exactly how does he know this information?
1:03:01
Yeah, so for content, I'm giving it A2.
1:03:04
For readability, I'm going to give it a four because I was
1:03:07
eating it up. Yeah, I agree.
1:03:09
I'm squabbling the shit out of. It it wasn't like the best
1:03:12
dialogue or anything, no. But I just wanted to see what
1:03:14
happened next. So it had enough balance of
1:03:17
suspense and action. It was keeping me going.
1:03:20
I don't like big long action things.
1:03:21
So it was losing me towards the end and then drawn out
1:03:24
explanations. I think because there was less
1:03:26
smart, I was more invested. Because you know how books, when
1:03:30
they start fucking, they never stop.
1:03:32
So every second chapter was sex. This at least was like they
1:03:35
didn't have time to bone. Nah.
1:03:36
So they were only having quickies and I could just move
1:03:39
forward with the plot. Yes.
1:03:41
So it was giving 95% plot, 5% smart.
1:03:45
Yeah, so that's. Probably it.
1:03:46
Hey, I hear a lot of people talk about this book, so I'm glad
1:03:49
