A bigger post, cause I owe you so many reviews. Don’t worry, they’re coming this month.

Fathers and Daughters

I did not like the direction it took, but we all know there’s usually a reason for girls to sleep around. I expected the film to be a little more emotional, but I’m still glad I reached for it. Why would Amanda’s character give that original script away? It’s such a nice little souvenir from her dad. Little Minx from The Whispers is definitely one of the kid actors to look out for.

7/10

Anesthesia

Dull characters of five separate stories that don’t exactly interact the way they should. The film should focus on the Professor’s life only, not his stiff family. How he taught, helped Kristen’s character in starting her recovery and him being stabbed. The writer of this film thought ‘oh let’s see how many problems can we fit into the film and maybe we’ll find some sort of deeper meaning at the end’. Why all the secondary characters? Why spend 1/3 of the film on the addict who tried to help the professor at the end? I watched it when I read about the attack, and honestly the attack itself, professor’s retirement speech, and Kristen’s self harm storyline were the only profound-like elements.

6.5/10

Miss You Already

We all have that one slutty friend who sleeps around, and has weird sexual encounters which put them in trouble. The film was pretty much what I expected, even though I thought it would be lighter and more uplifting, and giving some piece of hope to people who are left to deal with a loss of their loved ones. None of the characters were especially likeable, and I think it’s true that you need to leave someone behind for a while if they’re in one of their crazy spirals, so they don’t drag you down with them, but on the other hand, that’s not what a best friend would do, but there’s only so much a person can take. I heard two other actresses were supposed to play Drew Barrymore’s character but dropped out due to scheduling conflicts. Rachel Weisz was one of them, and boy would I have loved this film so much more if Rachel starred in it! Just imagine it… Toni Collette and Rachel Weisz playing friends? Yes please! We surely missed out on something special! The other actress who was considered for the Drew Barrymore role was Jennifer Aniston. I still would have liked her better for this. I hope she dropped it for Cake, not Horrible Bosses 2.

6/10

Max

What a enjoyable drama/adventure/family film. Yes all three in one, which doesn’t happen that often anymore. I honestly don’t think it could be much better. The final woods scene is captivating and I bet It’ll stay on minds of many pre and 13teens, like Bridge to Terabithia did on mine. The ending credits are accompanied by a rendition of Bob Dylan’s Forever Young. The film also stars Lauren Graham, who portrayed one of the main characters on Parenthood. And Parenthood has a legendary theme song, that just happens to be Forever Young. A coincidence? Maybe, but also a nice touch for someone who misses their weekly dose of tears Parenthood never failed to provide. I like Lauren as a mom, in Max she tried to get her husband and son to reunite while mourning the loss of her son, and she’s definitely the selling argument here. Max is a delight to watch I would recommend for entire family. I’ll show it to mine, and hopefully they’ll adore it as much as I did.

‘A hero always tells the truth no matter what people think about him or no matter what the consequences are. And you have always been that way Justin.’

‘Dad’s left a really weird message and disappeared.
Let’s do this.
Max… go search.’

8/10

The Barefoot Executive

Most of the time I’m disappointed with the films they give us on Netflix UK. I know Americans are getting all these nice titles and over 70 new films a day, and we the British get only one or two really crappy ones per day, and every other day we don’t get anything at all. The Barefoot Detective comes off Netflix tomorrow, so I have just finished watching it. It is a really witty Disney film from ’71. It gets funnier by the end when everyone assumes two TV executives want to jump off a building, when it’s the titled monkey who locked them out. Their own TV station films it all live and it’s just amusing. ‘They took it of the air and I don’t even know what happened to John’ don’t we all TV obsessed people know it oh so well. I was disappointed when the main character let them buy him off, but it’s a family film, so it all ended well.

‘We interrupt to bring you a special newscast of a sensational suicide try on Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles. Our special UBC helicopter enables us to bring you an exclusive close-up view of the pair attempting suicide. These pictures, live from the scene.’
‘There you are. Another first for UBC. Oh, no!’

6/10

Bushwhacked

Not as funny as I expected it to be, would it be better if I watched it as a kid? Maybe if I was a scout. Did they really take the charges away and gave him an award for basically kidnapping the kids? Family films are so outlandish sometimes. Also, I think that was Patty form The Leftovers.

‘Ok, it’s two longs and one short.’
‘No, no, no, stop. Stop wait. Two shorts and one long.
‘Oh great! What are we supposed to do, cross that letter out?’

‘What is this, a parade? Come on! Would you move your wrinkled asses? I’m in a hurry here! Ha ha, I’m gonna run you over!’

‘Oh my God, we’re trapped with a murderer!’
‘A psycho murderer!
 ‘I don’t think they cover that in the manual!’

3/10

The 33

The Chile mine catastrophe starring Antonio Banderas and Juliette Binoche. I thought it was wonderful, and It left me tear-y eyed through most of it. It’s unbelievable that after 69 days all 33 of them made it out of the mine.

8/10

Vacation

Chevy Chase is 72? Where did the time go? Vacation is the continuation of the Vacationseries, but now starring  Clark’s son. The film reminded me of The Millers, probably, because of the road trip, just minus the fun parts, but with the awkward mother-son-sister kissing the whole 90 minutes instead. Most of the jokes were cheap, and did not remind me of the original Vacations at all. Puking and swimming in a waste lake are cheap tricks you pull when you run out of ideas. And honestly, the excessive puking only worked in Pitch Perfect, and while we’re at it, excessive shitting, in Bridesmaids. Why would the driver follow them all the way? Wouldn’t a normal person write down their registration number and called the cops? The opening and ending scenes were probably my favorite. I also liked the little brother swearing all the time. The film tried to be as funny as the original Vacations, but it failed miserably. To music lovers, Julian Casablancas wrote and sang one of the songs in the soundtrack, called 11th Dimension. Check it out if you like The Strokes.

‘This is some bullshit right here!’

‘Stop saying weird shit like that!’

2/10

The Killing Room

Similar to The Circle, but I wish the control room people would not pick who dies themselves, and they’d actually let the victims choose. Why wouldn’t families know where they went, at least one person most have told someone. Most of them did have an emergency contact, so how would none of them say they’re gonna be under this or this address. I liked it till they said it was a government project training American suicide bombers, what? That ruined the whole film for me. Would you sign up for an experiment you would not know the rules of just to get 250 dollars?

5/10

Wicked Little Things

It was a little all over the place, and you’d think the little zombies would go after people responsible for their death not kids and teenagers.

5/10

Charming Christmas

I have been following Julie Benz’s career since Dexter, well at least most of it, I have never seen Defiance or much Buffy and many other films, but I’ve seen a couple, and by some weird coincidence, I watched 3 films of hers in the last 3 weeks. If you’re patient, you’ll eventually see my notes on The Circle, which I thought was an incredible thriller, and The Search for Sophie Parker, which everyone who follows sex crimes in papers and their portrayal in films and tv, should watch. Charming Christmas, also starring David Sutcliffe, or Christopher from Gilmore Girls, was sweet and charming, and that’s about it. I see this pattern with Hallmark’s Christmas films, there’s no backbone in their stories. Even though there is one Hallmark Christmas film I actually loved (Christmas Detour), all of their other Christmas films are just bad romcoms with pairings that don’t even go well together. The storyline is almost never meaningful or interesting, it’s always just ‘finding love for Christmas’ or ‘saving Christmas’, which is not challenging enough even for lovely women who’s favorite film genre is romantic comedy. Charming Christmas was all of that, and I thought David’s character was trying to over-charm us all. No guy is that charming, and just because he loves Christmas? What about the friends/workers with their boring back stories? Who cares that some worker of the main character is a dancer and broke her leg and wants to dance?  They were just trying to fill the holes in the script in, so it reaches 90 minutes. Also, was that Jake Epstein from Degrassi?

3.5/10

Indigenous

It should have just been the biography of the blogger who got killed in one of Panama’s passages almost 3 years ago. If not, why even mention it? It’s not like the creatures took him. This was just like any other woods based horror, with The Descent’s inbreed, blind creatures. It should have just ended with them being killed, they should have skipped posting it on YouTube and declaring sightings of these creatures all over the US, but that’s low budget horror, it can almost never be just right.

5/10

Jamie Marks is Dead

I did not know Cameron Monaghan (Ian from Shameless) was in it until I watched it. I picked this film up because of the cover, and I just felt like a thriller/mystery film. The movie was disappointing, don’t ask me how can you be friends with a ghost, or touch it, I don’t think they’ve been doing any Casper film since the 90s. Why would you run away with a ghost? Why would your girlfriend be okay with you running in the woods with some ghost? Why were Liv Tyler and Judy Greer even in the film? They didn’t bring anything to the storyline. The ending was just as slow paced as the rest of the film, and I think it would have made more sense if Jamie was actually – spoiler – murdered.

Here are some quick October reviews. Look out for the remaining 15 episodes this Thursday.

Greys 12.04

Derek’s killer is Callie’s new girlfriend.

Who screws the interns?
The father of my children.
I’m a widow, I’m dead inside. I’m widow Grey, I’m all okay.
Yours is the face they will remember for the rest of their lives.
I’ve had that great amazing love.

9.5/10

Downton Abbey 7.04

Robert better not die. This is not Parenthood. Moseley and Baxter better end up together, and they better show us. Rose came back and acted weirdly. The writers need to understand that none of us cares about the hospital.

Trying to get through life the best that we can.
And you’re wrong about me, I mind what people say.
But he hasn’t ruined you, has he? And the proof is you’re standing here.

10/10

Castle 8.04

As I asked myself where the f do I recognise this guy from It got to me that it’s Gabby’s pervy stepfather from Desperate Housewives.

No, no. Well, yes, yes.
Pathological liars anonymous.
The blind priest just ran away.

6/10

How To Get Away With Murder 2.04

This season seems much less planned out.

Do you actually think that murdering someone is not a big deal?
I think about it a lot. Killing myself. Have been since I was a child.
If I don’t deserve to die, than you definitely don’t.
Let’s all find a cliff and go out in style.

4/10

How to Get Away with Murder 2.05

We finally got Bonnie’s back story and it was painful, and the show is finally getting more valuable again.

I found Wes and Nate last night?
Screwing?
That man is her father.

1.5/10

How to Get Away with Murder 2.06

I see what you’re saying, Asher is dating Bonnie who as a child was sexually abused by her father. Asher on the other hand gang raped a girl as a teenager. This is good. Who cares about all the other storylines this season, none of them are worth our time.

Contamination the crime scene. Let’s make a note of this officer not wearing gloves.
Tiffany was gang raped.

3.5/10

Grandfathered 1.03

Paget’s character reminds me of me a little more each week.

The age I lost my virginity. 13.
Thanks to you he’s one step away from being Norman Bates.
Mother in Parenthood.
Which Friends character are you?Come on, I’m Monica!
You delay, delay, delay and suddenly it’s too late.
What’s this, a cheesy rom com.

4.5/10

Grandfathered 1.04

Come on, Stamos you do know who Big Bird is, remember how obsessed Michelle was with him on Full House? Posting fake reviews and lying about leaving home on point. Other than that, weakest episode of the season.

Anonymous 2023.
Almost there. Traffic is awful.

2/10

The Good Wife 7.02

Jeffrey Dean Morgan joins the cast! An SVU case about mom taking naked pictures of their kids and selling them as art.

Have you seen the movie It Follows?
That’s when I got my first email from a pedophile.
After I came back from school, these men would wait for me.

8/10

The Good Wife 7.03

Grace working as Alicia’s assistant/secretary is my new favorite thing about the show. Interns caring about their boyfriends was hilarious too. Don’t go to law school if you want a normal life, simple as that.

Do these new summer interns seem less concerned to you? They worry about their boyfriends and having easier work days.

10/10

Scandal 5.03

How can Fitz still treat Mellie like crap?

Shut it down or get fired, people.
We’re running, people.

10/10

Scandal 5.04

Quinn has recruited a new gladiator.

Gladiators don’t ask questions.

2/10

The Leftovers 2.02

What is it with this season? Pure boredom. Miss Patty and where the heck is Amy Brenneman? So Kevin is a part of rapture number 2?

1.5/10

Switched at Birth 4.18

Were we supposed to be surprised that Daphne’s tutor was gay? Wasn’t that obvious? A very weak episode.

2.5/10

Faking It 2.19

Karma is just jealous that Amy does not pay attention to her anymore that she may actually try to be with her for a while, ruining Amy’s feelings.

The real you is so fantastic.

Parenthood 6.13

Extremely exhausted from crying over that beautifully painful finale. The Bravermans will always be my family. Zeek died and Camille went to France by herself. And she probably loved it there just as much as Zeek said she would. One of my most favorite moments from the finale. I was hoping Jason would make an exception and give us a happy finale and the series would end with the wedding, but he couldn’t because this is Parenthood, a tears is the one word the show is associated with. It was a tearfully beautiful finale and it could have not been written any better. Trying to deal with the loss by writing the lyrics to Forever Young on every notebook I own. Good thing I’ve known them for six years. Goodbye, Parenthood, I love you.

Have I been a good father?
The very best.
I’ll be Adam and you’ll be Crosby.
Zeek? Zeek?
May you stay forever young.

10/10

Greys 11.09

Weakest episode of the season. We all know nothing is going to be wrong with Japril’s baby. This isn’t Amelia and her unicorn baby. I doubt it very much that Shonda is going to play it this dangerously again. Don’t ask me why the new surgeon isn’t taking the surgery she needs. And I’m not sure what’s happening with Merder, but a job offer being a burden on a marriage is one very realistic plot. What happens when you put your work over family? Does it have a chance of surving?

Maybe she needed a nanny. (My kind of humor, Mer)
Your wife was the driver.
Big deal. My husband left me and I’m here.
You’re a kid.
Before she left she said something about Derek and I and she was right.
I need a person, who’s going to be in it with me.
Did I tell you, it’s a boy?
This isn’t us. This isn’t how we end, right?
The shock response has protected us and it might have just saved us.

4.5/10

Revenge 4.14

Nothing better than Emily gping undercover, but other than that, possibly the weakest episode of the season. Emily and Ben, really?

Happy Birthday, baby.
I’m new here.
You’re most certainly are.
You’ve been Emily for?
11 years.
Focus on the blade.
Your husband with that pool boy.
You just failed the first test.
I guess it’s true what they say. You marry uoir husband’s friends.
Or the original my husband found.
I can’t just be Amanda Clarke.
I’m cutting you and your campaign off my money.

6/10

Cougar Town 6.04

All episodes should be this good. Jules even bumped herself with her own car.

I’m free.
Shocking.
Let me plan Stan’s birthday and you don’t have to go.
Deal.
Ble.
Before boning a dude…
He’s a doctor, it’s good to have him around, in case Grayson and I fell asleep from having such an uneventful night.
What are you doing there? Why are you inside the house?
Because it’s not not hard spitting out skank tweets to idiots.
What’s a retweet? Is that good?
A little late, dude.
I guess. I’ll just go stand in the yard.
Sup’ sad.
So I brought a translator.
How sup’s.
OMG. My brain is stuck. My brain is tots stuck.
We did it again.
You’ve gone full Daniel Day Lewis.
No I’m never doing that. You’re a horrible actor.
I’m fired, aren’t I?
Oh yeah.
You okay?
Yeah. You?

Shameless 5.03

Don’t tell me Joan Cusack and Emma Greenwell both left Shameless forever. They played my two favorite characters. They better be back in a few eps. But why don’t I remember what happened to Karen after Mandy hit her with the car? How did she leave? This has been bugging me for four days. Genius things happening this episode. Deb lost her v card by ‘date raping a guy and statutory raping herself’ while Frank pimped out his slutty daughter. Sheila left to travel the world when she couldn’t leave the house for two years and suffers from OCD. This is not relevant, but would a person with a severe OCD be dating men who don’t care about their hygiene? I think they might have gotten it wrong. And why was her sofa no longer covered in plastic when Sammy screwed a guy on two weeks ago? Also, nice sock.

It’s also good for cleaning toilets or sinks.
It looks like a hand whore fire sale out there.
What ladies?
Those lesbians
I want us to see the world.
I’ve seen it and looks like shit.
You got a fetish fpr fuck ups?
Girls with stories.
We need to run out lebians out of town.
All of them?
Just the ones in our hood.
CErEal rapist on the loose.
She’s a hood girl. She thinks she’s a piece of shit.
I don’t get it, she’s a great girl. She can get any guy she wants.
I have to stay close to my doctors.
You’re gorgeous. You’re smart, you know that, right?
She left.
I tried.
Play me something worth dying for.
Some lonesome wrist cutter.
You date raped me. You statutory raped yourself.
You did the raping right?
Debs, I think this is some seriously weird dude. A million guys would kill to be raped by you.
I had sex last night. My first time.
Frank promised you would bumb me as soon as we go to your place.
I’ve seen you put out after the first drink.
You take pleasure in shoving plastic penises up your men’s butt.
Can’t a man have a minute of peace.

Switched at Birth 4.04

How did they fit one full semester into 4 episodes, when they streched out 2 year of high school into 3 full seasons? I see Regina had good intentions, but you don’t go talking to college professors about your kid’s grades. This isn’t middle school. How can you have a successful relationship if you don’t like the same things? ‘Daphne made all of this herself.’ All what, a C? They need to send Bay to college, we haven’t seen her paint anytjing in months. I hated when Emmett said she had not much going on right now. So what if she doesn’t? Big deal, some things are more important, and sometimes creating has to wait a few years. I hate when people do this. I have too many friends who are sure they’re destined for great artistic carreers who choose to torture me about taking some time off to help my parents finanially. They don’t get it, and so does Emmett. Lots of friends tell me this but If my boyfriend did I would dump him immediately. How can you be (friends) with if they think they’re better than you? It’s okay to take some time off, It doesn’t mean you’re off the track. SVU case next week?

I am am so happy the elevator’s out.
Maybe this one won’t crap out after 1 month.
Don’t let the deafness throw you.
See there you go.
What are the odds of him having your carreer?
Until he does, Back off.
A student become C students.
We just discontinued your data plan.
If you’re turning down work, I don’t think you’re doing the best you can.
You made me look like a disabled winer.
You don’t have much going on right now.
But it’s only temporary.
This is a drop form.
If you do a good job, I will raise your D to a C.
You’re gonna hit a lot of road blocks. In the future, don’t be so quick to give up.
I’m gonna write a musical with my mom.
First things first, I have to read your book.

Pretty Little Liars 5.17

Even though I understand where Ezra is coming from, I don’t support his decision to part with Aria. So she’ll resent you, she’ll get over it. You can always pretend you’re those 8 or 9 years younger and blend in at college parties, just like you did two episodes ago. No one doubted you’re a high school student. We all new they brought the cook to be Emily’s love interest and I don’t mind it. How come Rosewood, a small city has so many lesbians, and yet we haven’t met a single gay guy? I couldn’t adore more the scene where Aria goes through her year book and sees a blank space under her name and realizes her relationship with Ezra might have stood in a way of her high school life. But she forgot one thing. What about A? It’s A who tortured her for those three years of high school, and not Ezra. For a person who was very antisocial in high shool and didn’t go to any parties and school events and who wasn’t a member of any school clubs, I could identify with this lovely scene.

Or any guys.
So your ex was a girl?
Yeah. (There is no way that tshirt she had in the last episode could belong to a guy)
People.
You mean your high school girlfriend.
You did what you had to do to get in.
I don’t think that’s an actual parking spot, Spence.
We’ll take that chance.
So you’re here to rent a storage unit?
Then you better get going.
Looks like someone’s camera shy.
Somebody knows we’re here.
We’re gonna freeze to death.
What’s that?
I’m not sure.
If we stay together you can grow to resent me.
You screwed yourself by going there and you screw over Caleb too.
I’m interested in you.
Then we’ll both be behind bars. Maybe not in the same facility.
Aria Montgomery [blank].
Hanna and Caleb need to know if Mona’s body is in there!

The Simpsons 26.11

Nice Scrooge outfit, Burns.

You’re the guy who put wheels on baggage? Thank you!
He changed the way Hollywood drives.
Clearly the work of Lenny. It’s the white one, right?
Not on my carpet.
Car go park at work, so people think I’m there.
Never.

Eye Candy 1.03

I wanted to quit the show last week, but now I’m happy I didn’t.

They belong to a woman.
Surprise.
They are all on flirtual.
You’re fired. I’m kidding. I cover for you. Working.
Who’s the insomniac?
Oh my god. I know why he’s killing.
Julia hated her teeth.
He wants perfection.
It’s your birthday?
Yeah.
What kind of person doesn’t know their best friend’s birtday?
You passed my test.
Perfection doesn’t exist. Everybody’s flawed, especially me.

7.5/10

Scandal 4.10

I’m sorry what was the exciting part? I hate when writers throw a storyline that’s not going to be important after two episodes. So Liv was kidnapped, big deal. Maybe if she wasn’t a brat and didn’t tell everyone she’s special, because of her name, we’d maybe feel sorry for her. I would much rather enjoy thia show if Abby or Mellie were the leading ladies. I worship Shonda, but how the hell are we supposed to identify with a person who has ‘superpowers’ and can do all the things none of us can? Still between the captors holding Liv in an opposite apartment, the obvious ‘it’s okay, Olivia, don’t worry. It’s over’ – a neighboor being shot, and the captors stone walling the window, Olivia thinking the president put a tracker in her and finally a captor turning out the guy who was in the cell with her and Liv telling him her value, I can see some potential.

2.5/10

How to Get Away With Murder 1.10

Weak episodes of Greys and Scandal, but can’t say the same about the third child of Shondaland. It was interesting and managed to keep me interested, and that’s what this is all about.

What you did tonight had to be done.
They’re wearing paranoia on their sleeves.
See you in court, kids.
You’re dating your client?
We have to prove my husband murdered Lila.
Sounds like you need a lawyer.
She was pregnant, idiot. She didn’t need birth conrtol.
Maybe you had fun, I was drunk and desperate.
I’ll write crime fiction, I’ll be a housewife. Ok maybe not a housewife.
That’s the address of the kappa sorority.
Rebecca did not impregnate the victim.
What’s the matter, you’re not in the mood to confess to a murder.
Let me help you, because if you do, I promise you’ll get away with this.
All tgese induviduals are responsible for disposal of the body. You have to argue they’re innocent. You have 90 minutes.

I have so many shows, I haven’t watched a single film since they came back from the winter break. I will cry when Parenthood ends. American Horror Story and Bad Judge just ended. Eye Candy made the list. Greys, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder are all back next week. Then Nashville, and Bates Motel and Bones are back in March.

Parenthood 6.12

Lauren Graham performed Joni Mitchell’s The Circle Game and that’s all I’m gonna say. Kristina looking at her latest accomplishment – which was probably the last scene at Chambers. I cried I cried and I went to the store and bought mansize klinex for next week’s finale.

That didn’t stop you before going into music business.
It’s gotta be you, Mr. Braverman.
I have some serious doubts about success of this school if you’re gonna tach cooking.
I always thought I’d get married at a volcano.
Did he just say volcano?
I always thought I’d have my second wedding at a volcano.
Excuse me? What’s happening? Are we going?
Of course I’m with you. I’m always with you.
Where’s the baby?
Yeah, that text was confusing.
There’s no rush.
What was special about it was Adam and I.
You slept with people? How many people? For a record, I didn’t sleep with people.
You’re beautiful to look at. Very beautiful. But also on the inside.
It doesn’t matter what you cook, since you’re gonna end up unemployed anyway.
Hey, you’re playing our song.
Something shifts and you’ll figure it out.
You’re my hero.
You still got it.
Mr Gangi, what exactly are your intentions with my daughter with those teeth?
If you hadn’t stolen my knife in the first place, none of it would have happened.
I just wanna make sure that my dad is there.
Don’t cry, I don’t like when you cry.
Amber, you’re a mommy.
I want you to meet your great grandson, Zeek.
Hi, Zeek.

10/10

SVU 16.12

I hate when SVU is not really SVU. We need SVU cases to know it’s gonna be okay, not some Amaro’s father bullshit, especially if he got away with it.

In order to heal, we have to let go.
Oh so you’ve forgiven your father or William Lewis?
Wow.
I’m sorry.
Daddy come quick they’re fighting.
So she deserved it. Just like you did.
Maybe this is just another nightmare from your childhood.
Detective would you say you have your own anger issues?
He’s my son. He has his issues.
The jury’s back.
After 20 minutes?
Finally stood up to your old man.
I would never lay a hand on her. I’m not you.

6/10

Revenge 4.13

Victoria offered her life for Emily’s! I see I wasn’t the only one stunned when that happened. It’s all revenge fandom can talk about on Tumblr. Well, this and Nolan’s wedding, but I don’t mind it Nolan and Louis turned out to be great friends even though they’ve known each other for two weeks or so. Why does Victoria say she has nothing left? What about Charlotte and her other son? Where is her other son anyway? Conrad is dead so he can come back and I know they’re trying to sell us Nolan’s bisexuality, but no one is buying it. The whole episode I kept thinking, If they beat Emily up, Victoria has no chance of survival.

Who as it turns out is Emily.
Who would have thought after all that was said and done, you and I would die together.
To stage a greving mother’s suicide.
I thought I’d sacrifice myself to buy you and Emily more time.
Revenge is a dangerous game.

American Horror Story 4.13

What a beautiful finale. Glad to see a happy ending, very similar to the Haunted House’s, and not a depressing one like Asylum and Coven’s.I knew all of the freaks would die and Elsa too. That’s why we had Dandy. But with every shot my heart wss breaking and I kept saying ‘Come on’ through a tight throat. Elsa comitting a suicide by performing on Halloween was so fitting. They could not have written a better ending. But why would the film that portrays her as a victim hurt her? Why would she be ruined? The film didn’t show her as a masochist, I think they started rolling when she was lying in the bed completely out of it and then having her legs cut off. I know it’s the early 60s, but I think the only think that would change is that everyone would feel sorry for her but I don’t think any less people would watch, even though we all know in the 50s-60s you had to be perfect to make it.

Audiences want a new type of freak.
You’re boring. You’re never be one of us.
What kind of place is this?
Hollywood.
My name is Elsa Mars.
Showtime.
I always thought babies to be boring, but freak babies!
You didn’t think we’d lay in bed with you after you’ve massacred our entire family.
Were you poorly trained? You’re not allowed to sit at the table with us.
It’s got to be theatrical.
I felt so blessed to finally have friends and you took them all.
You’re the biggest freak of them all.
I hate you. I hate you. I hate you.
First of all, this coffee tastes like shit.
I said I will not perform on Halloween.
I’m bored and I’m alone.
I’ve always been cursed. First by having my dreams ripped away and now I’m cursed by having them all come true.
I’ll become just some sad footnote in Hollywood’s history?
They’re all dead.
What? All of them?
Some kind of massacre. Bodies found in a mass grave.
I’ve changed my mind. I will perform on Halloween. Why not? I may as well go out with a bang.
Why she stopped singing?
This is a suicide. How deep your pain must be, my love.
I’m the biggest freak of all.
Your place is not with us.
It’s like you’ve always said, sweetheart. Stars never pay.
Am I to perform?
The brightest and the best there ever was and will be.

Bad Judge 1.13

Just when I got used to these characters. I love that it ended exactly the same way it started – with Rebecca being a complete mess. Goodbye, Bad Judge, I’ll miss you.

Car wash.
There we go.
May just ask your name?
It’s spelled…
Hopefuly we can get address till lunch.
I’ll call one of my orher friends. You know, my friend Ross, Monica’s cool, Chandler, god, could he be so funny?
We’re grown ups. Punching is called battery and they’ll take you to jail for it.
The woman has enough alcohol.
It’s like an emergency tent at Coachella.
If she serves anything, it definitely has herpies.
What!?
No you can’t arrest me today!
The next day, you are the authority, the van’s gone.
I need you to cover a case for me.
Objection. We get.
Sustained.
Did you eat for the food, didn’t pay for the food?
Be seated.

Cougar Town 6.03

Great episode. Reminded me of the great ones from the early seasons when everything was Jules/Ellie.

They’re screwed.
Actually, I’ll take the compliment.
What’s the challenging part?
Oh, I’m not hearing a problem.
S’up Perv’stach.
I had to use both hands.
It might have been the alcohol.
Yeah! And we gve it to them.
We’re out of 3 grand.
Bless you.
Are you calling me a liar?
Are you ready to sex up this joint?
Sure is, baby.
Is that right?
It’s you. My new Bobby. It’s you!
Why you’re being creepier than usual?

Castle 7.12

Witty, but very average. Brad from Gilmore Girls plays the hotel personnel.

And not see Castle.
I’m looking for a private detective.
She’s absolutely right a d completely unbiased.
Canvasing? Or you mean that thing you let Ryan and Espo do.
What was the strange thing you’ve noticed.
That smoking hot detective was asking about the same thing too.
But this UBS drive.
I have my operative looking into other clues.
Maybe your opinion’s not so objective.
This is not my limo.
What’s her name?
Havier.

5.5/10

Shameless 5.02

What an episode, hands down, Shameless is back. Fiona proved she is chaos. Getting punched twice in the same day by two diffrent strangers may be the exact definition of chaos.

Did you leave either kid on the porch and went on a drug run?
Just like these asholes who don’t speak English are doing.
Let me get my pepper spray.
He’s one block over at Sheila’s.
More butter.
Apologise to my waitress.
I think Chucky is moderly retarted. Someone should tell Sammy.
I hope it’s better than his sad display of mentally disabled art.
He was with two very clean lesbians.
Double? It has scam written all over it.
Terrible fucking idea.
Did they offer cash upfront? Cash today?
She has a good nose for scam.
I don’t think you’re invited.
Why you done with the public pool? Someone shit in it? Someone shit om you?
I don’t know this feeling. It’s hate. I hate your daughter, Frank.
You look really pretty, Mandy.
Hi, I really need to talk to the priest.
Did you take something?
A job for illegal immigrants and ex cons.
I need to go to the alibi. Job requirement.
I’m gonna want you for that.
You’re a chaos junkie.
Why was there a hooker’s tit in mu baby’s mouth!?
It’s just hair. It’ll grow back.
It’s a starbucks.
Gentrification.
Genital what?
14 will get you 20.

Switched at Birth 4.03

I almost cried and rewinded three times when Daphne introduced John as her dad. I feel for Iris, she made a great point, she helped Daphne study and found her an interpreter, yet she didn’t get help in return.

What’s your favorite horror film?
Psycho.
Happy 50ish birthday.
Have you ever been convicted of a fellony?
Forensic evidence? Are you a criminology major?
Charity work?
Environmental clean up.
I didn’t know that made sound.
How do you know John Kennish?
He’s my dad.
I’m just the dumb hearing girl wno no one wants to slow down enough to talk to.
This kid has a future in baseball and I’m gonna help him.
It’s ASL, when everyone’s together, I’m all lost.
Stop it.
Make me.

6.5/10

Pretty Little Liars 5.16

Isn’t it hilarious how this show used to be just something to watch in the background for four years and now it’s the only way to get through Wednesday? How boring my life must have gotten over the year that I’m actually looking forward to every new episode? I watch it before Cougar Town and Switched at Birth. I almost cannot say a bad word about it anymore. The show is satisfying without Alison. I really hope Mona is in that barrell, as I did not see it coming.

Aria, this is the letter you wrote to Jackie.
You’re mad that I bailed or that I walked in on your wild college weekend.
Oh you can’t find the copy of the invoice?
So your boyfriend’s a cop.
From Mona Vandervaal.
You sound really echoey, like you’re in an airduct.
That’s because I am in an airduct.
He’s keeping it to build a case against one of us.
That she’s in there.
Mona was a lot of things, but she didn’t deserve this.
I like him and like him with you.
It’s just a bunch of kids sitting on bunk beds trying to figure out what yo do with the rest of their lives.
Hanna, it’s rented in your name and I’m pretty sure that Mona’s body is hidden inside of it.

Two shows mentioned Sophie’s Choice this week, coincidence?

Parenthood 6.11

Let’s go home. There are no words to describe how much I’ll miss this show.

10/10

SVU 16.11

Very disapointed with this case. A 15 year old meets up with a movie star she has a crush on and ends up hooking up with another movie star.

Something happened to me?
The driver pulled over and got into the back with me.
That’ll get you trending.
The waiter saw him do body shots off of her.
Hello, somebody had sex with a drunk and drugged 15 year old girl.
Motherhood gas really changed you, Liv.
Call me Big G.
I believe you’ve met Big G.
Life umitates art, I get that.
I didn’t want Scott to find out I cheated on him.
Definitely not, but nice try.
Check please.

Revenge 4.12

I don’t know what they’re doing or why I keep giving it a 10. I desperately need to see Victoria in action instead of watching David screw everything up for our characters.

Death for Victoria would me merciful.
The devil can have it.
My other partner in crime.
You’ll spare Victoria’s life again.
I’m really gonna miss you.
This may become your farawell takedown.
What if yiur friend finds out about your obsessive tendencies?
That their father died assaulting an innocent woman?
You gave her criminal file?
Okay, Louis may be crazy.
I questioned Emily myself.
I’m sure you did.
Actually, I think you have.
I need to start with a damaged little girl called Amanda Clarke, also known as Emily Thorne.
Look what I found. This is so much better.

American Horror Story 4.12

I hate where this show eneded up this year. I was actually surprised when tjey killed Maggie off and that they changed Stanley to Meep. Or that they wanted to kill Elsa! What on Earth is happening this year. The only thing I like is that Dandy’s the new owner now. I wondered how he’s story’s gonna end and this seems fitting. The finale’s next week and I’m more scared about what they’ll pull off than how sad I am that it’s ending. I hope Jessica does one more season.

You tried to kill my dreams, but they cannot be murdered.
You came.
Of course.
But I asked myself, Dandy, how can you be of help?
You look like shit.
Maggie’s next. Elsa’s next.
Looks like you’re gonna have a shot at normal life.
But where would I go?
I’m the new owner.

8.5/10

Bad Judge 1.12

If only every episode was this good. At episode 12, I’m starting to grow to this family. Sad the series finale’s next week.

Let’s a game. Secrets.
You obviously skied on acid.
It was Sophie’s choice.
Because my number 4 was in high school.
Young hopeful and stinky.
What is she George Clooney’s wife?
Wallets get paid more than that.
They’re making Toy Story 4.
I am the law and I’m going for it.
It’s awesome, isn’t it?
The only relationship that end mutualy are those when two people die in the same car accident.
Soy sauce?
Garbage dog’s getting bath.
Of course.
Is it bra food?
It’s almost like I sensed that you and Jim are having problems.
Have you told Jim how you feel?
Having a baguette.
It’s brilliant.
Yeah sure, that too.
This would make a terrible episode of Law and Order.
She toured with The Black Eyed Peas but just briefly.
Bank is gonna be closed for a while.
Are you fucking kidding me?

Cougar Town 6.02

This show used to be so good. Remember when Shonda Rhimes was freaking out about the Penny Can and how happy she was about some advanced episodes that Bill Lawrence sent her? And how she was taking about Wednesdays with wine and Cougar Town? Well that was me too. I won’t complain anymore because I know I’ll be sad not once when It ends. I’ll look back and remember only the good things. Happy Birthday little Bobby Cobb! Can you belive Laurie has a kid with Travis? I can’t! I go back to season one in my mind and just can’t believe it.

Move dude, emergency.
Obviosly, you’re pregnant.
Said no.
Did we have awful public schools.
Fancy pants.
I feel so.
Can we mke her wear the dress?
But move this car.
I need to be with people I love, where nothing changes.
Are they for a girl or a boy? Yes. Shut up, Tom.
Bobby, meet Bobby.

Castle 7.10

We haven’t had an episode this funny in years! And how can the case not be good when the dog is the witness! A little competition never harmed anyone and it might have been what the show needed.

How a woman so astud could marry a man like Castle?
I’m now Richard Castle, Private Investigator.
I’m sorry that’s confidential too.
A private investigator!?
Who are you and what are you doing with a dead woman’s dog?
Bitch, I know where you live.
I’m just making sure you filled it out correctly.
I was just discussing it with the writer you married.
Welcome to Richard Castle Investigations.
You said married people tell each other things.
My God, I’ve missed this.
We’re definitely on top of him.
When she took something beautiful we had together and shared it with another man.
Oh thank god, now what are you doing here?
The dog is the witness!?

8/10

Shameless 5.01

Shameless came back poorly. I always expect this show to blow my mind and this week it simply didn’t. I enjoyed Sheila’s problems with Frank’s daughter, but other than that, it was disapointing. But in the end, Frank’s back living with Sheila and that’s all I need.

Yoy’re lying to your notebook.
Are you expecting a loss of appetite?
Are you my father?
Don’t think so, kid.
And dry humping that man on my couch.
Plus it’s free.
Forgot that argument.
Screw those bitches.
We’re gonna party up Gallagher style.

The Simpsons 26.11

The show that never disapoints and keeps me sane on crazy Mondays. A very good episode. ‘Stay 10 forever’ is what I’d like to wish to all of us.

That would explain a lot.
If I was Fred Flinston.
It’s such a big ass.
For the first time I actually have to do my job.
It’s called a double standard.
I could direct films like Angelina Jolie.
Look back at the elephant.
What if those clowns parked in the same lot as us?
Maybe there’s a better Wifi in the freak tent.
Oh not again.
I’m not? Good. Am I sick?
Is that a grown man going between the children’s legs?
It’s on page one of the rule book.
Homo too.
I’ve been emotionally dealing with it the whole week so yeah.
Bye, Bart. Stay 10 forever.

7.5/10

Switched at Birth 4.02

Far from good, the only thing that kept me through the episode was the thought of the teacher being the Claire Danes’s mom in My So Called Life. God, I loved this show. Why didn’t we find 5 minutes for Marlee Matlin, yet we focused on Regina and East Riverside bullshit again. I can’t imagine how hard it must be for Daphne to go to all hearing college. Bay’s drama is so overrated, the show insists on reminding us it’s a teen show.

You let the door slam after you.
Thanks so much!
It looks like you’re saying end of peace, but I know that’s not right.
They’re meeting without you.

Pretty Little Liars 5.15

I am really enjoying the college talk. I don’t mind Ashley sleeping with Jason, she deserves to be appreciated and we never see the priest anymore. Aria got into a mediocre college and somehow isn’t too sad about it. I loved her letter to Jackie. It was potentially a very atupid move, but exactly what I would have done. Write a killer personal statement. They wanted personal? They got personal. I was surprised to actually see a grown up version of Jackie instead of the unforgiving and childish one we met a few seasons back. Spencer and Caleb duo is something to look forward to.

Whatever happened to a thank you card?
How many schools did you get into?
Did I miss something, when did you become a professional chef?
I know it hurts. It’s a temporary setback.
I don’t need a dramatic reading of it. I wrote it.
I made these. Eat one.

There’ll be no rest for the wicked.
Burn your life down.

The Good Wife 6.12

I know it may be one of the shows best seasons, but I honestly don’t feel it most of the times. I couldn’t be happier about getting David back! He brings absurd humor which this show needs.

I don’t even recognise these people.
I’ve missed this. All usul disasters.
What does that have to do with my married life?
You know you can tape whatever you want.
I don’t have feelings for you.
We want you back, David.
The governor’s stepping in for the mayor.
I’ve came home Alicia. We’re partners again.
I’m gonna win.

Eye Candy 1.01

Following R.L. Stine’s every project since the 90s. I am very upset about The Haunting Hour cancellation. The pilot was good enough, I will watch the series.

Sarah!
Filthy crooked teeth. Now I have to kill you.
He must have known I’ll be able to do this.
Too love me. Stalk me. Kill me?
She’s hacking their phones.
No, that’s not legal.
He’s at the apartment with you, get out!
Say it or he’ll die without knowing.

Congrats to Julianne Moore on winning a Golden Globe for her startling performance in Still Alice!

Shameless is back next week! What’s with shows and Taylor Swift this week? SVU’s ‘Welcome to New York.’ ‘Aww just like the song’; Parenthood’s ‘We’re not out of the woods yet’ The Simpsons’s ‘Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?’ Not Taylor Swift really, but got me thinking of ‘Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet’, and finally I watched the new Disney version of Into the Woods yesterday and I swear I waited for the song to be used in the closing credits.

Parenthood 6.10

All the Braverman mothers talking about motherhood was everything I wanted. Hank finally showed he is good enough to be Sarah’s match. The writers focused on showing us Hank adapting in a stressful and uncomfortable situation when he wants to help, but his Aspergers robbed him from certain social skills, to see him evolve and figure out what’s right or not to talk about was magical. Drew was feeling guilty about the Paris trip. And like I said in the intro, when the doctors said ‘We’re not out of the woods yet’ I smiled and automatically thought of Mae and how obsessed she, Sarah and Miles were with this Taylor Swift song. Also, Jesse Marchant’s Remembers Defeats from the incredible opening scene is still on repeat. Plus, I obviously cried through the entire episode, but my father teared up at three scenes, and that says something as he usually says ‘they’re not real, stop crying’, but for some reason, never when we watch Parenthood. I know we’ll both miss the show deeply.

No! Damn it.
Walk of shame.
We’ll get there on time. I mean.
Also, rip off someone who can afford it.
Grandma’s 94 or sth and dad’sin ICU.
Zeek, we’re all here.
I’m sorry, It’s family members only. He’s my husband.
That’s all we know.
Life is short, baby. You gotta hang in there.
He doesn’t even eat right. I saw him by the candy machine buying tweezlers.
Favorite loser.
Thank you for being there for me. For my family, for my dad.
That’s why we probably should be vegetarians.
That’s why we should get married.
Amber, Drew. I love you. I love you too.
Don’t ever give up on your own dreams.

SVU 16.10

Just imagine none of this would hape if Amanda didn’t feel this sibling need to protect her little sister. After what happened to her in Atlanta she should have never helped her siater again. She brought so much trouble on Rollins back in season 13. And what on earth happened to Liv? I was really hoping she would apologise for never asking what happened in Atlanta, and for being so harsh on Rollins after what she did last year. But most importantly, I wanted to see her take Amanda to her psychiatrist, make sure she gets help and won’t put herself in any more mess.

Is Liv already in?
The vic is that young detective from Atlanta.
I’m sorry I need to take this.
It isn’t just going to go away.
Yeah it will.
You can never tell who’s capable of anything.
I think Amanda Rollins put her and you up for this.
Just leave me be.
She’ll get over it. She’ll pretend like it never happened. If you pretend long enough, after a while It’s like none of it happened.
He thinks he’s entitled.
You think you’re Patton’s first good girl?
So everything they said about you is not true?
No.
No piece for your old friend Sam?
NYPD won’t bend over.
Bend over?
That girl got what she wanted. Just like Rollins did.
Amanda, you know I don’t take no for a answer.
He pinned my hands above my head and he told me I wasn’t going anywhere and no one would believe me. I gave up. He raped me.
Are you talking about Amanda Rollins? I didn’t rape her or that other girl.
Does that include any other blond young detectives you mentored?
You’re only as sick as your secrets.
Can you go back to that detective?

Revenge 4.11

Victoria seems completely harmless without Conrad. I hate where the story is going now. Did we really have to turn Daniel to a villain? Wouldn’t it be easier to just kill David? He brought his own trouble to the Hamptons and he’s starting to get really annoying. Also, he wants to kill Victoria and I simply won’t watch when Madeleine leaves, so they better stay away from her. I really hope the writers will bring the order back to where it was at the end of the season and Victoria back to the Grayson manor. I am starting to like Margot, she’s making it her life mission to avenge Emily. I just hope they won’t kill her off. Why is Jack taking personal days? You don’t look suspicious at all.

Daniel! Daniel!
Wait what did they say?
Basement it is.
You left the key in the rear door.
What kind of monster would that make me.
Dude, who you’re talking to?
Victoria’s gonna stay here.
Are you out of your mind?
I’m so…
You’re welcome.
Sorry, did you just say a father.
What?
Underneath all the scar tissue.
The night of our wedding.
Someone is headed for Disney world.
I’m sorry about Daniel.
I know.
I’m going to make it my life’s journey to see you pay for what you’ve done.
No but she can.
Soon you’ll be teaching your own son how to do it.
Would you destroy it please. That way we won’t have any more funerals.
It’s always the little things that get ya.

American Horror Story 4.10

This season is very messy. I just want to see Elsa make it in Hollywood already and be done with it. I really hoped she would sing in every episode, without it it’s just Dandy killing people and a bunch of nothing. I hate that they have already killed the best characters. Did we really have to kill Dandy’s mother off? I couldn’t care less about the twins looking for someone to deflower them. At least they brought Nun back. They should have done everything I’m their power to get Lily Rabe.

If you don’t get an ambulence now!
We are where we belong.
Imagine that. Being a freak for being normal.
How’s he going to defend himself without his hands?
You can’t get it up without a doll watching you.
Let’s tear this place apart.
Again.
What a psycho. Tell me. How did they die?
We should have been included.
You’re a magician. You’re gonna saw thslis in half.
Homo erectus nonsense.
That’s all I needed to hear.

Bad Judge 1.11

I cannot figure out why this show chooses to sabotage itself on every possible occasion, when it had so much potential.

If things don’t go your way, you may never see a woman again.
Is it true you have a sextape?
There was never porn on it before.
He’s never seen a woman naked, has he?
She’s done a lot worse.
How low? A squirrel came to my house.
Feels so much later in my heart.
Is this the group sex thing?
You don’t see me walking around judging people.

Cougar Town 6.01

The final season started very poorly.

What? Fat.
Baby socks with nickles.
Just tell your atupid story, Tom.
Imaginary hat.
I have so many strechmarks on my ass.
My garage is completely sound proof.
On the other hand, secret wine bar.
Should have worn a condom.
You’re not 40.

The Simpsons 26.10

I really thought I was gonna hate this one, but it was so funny. President Coin was read by the same person who read Mockingjay’s audiobook? Lisa made me want to go back to veganism.

Are we there yet?
This time I’m gonna write down where I parked. ‘Parking lot.’
You planted that on me, man.
Don’t get off the bug.
Welcome to the bug, welcome to the bug.
Acid.
I don’t like the end sound of that.
Tooton Abbey.
Come on, start this thing, I’m not impressed.
Potato chips. D’oh. D’oh! Stupid kid, you ruin every trip.
Sure pick the only two times in history when thinga got messy.
Can I turn my phone on yet?
Homer, you have to stop dropping your pants in front of everyone who claims to be a doctor.
In Sophie’s Choice she chose the boy.
Kid’s got talent, but come on.
The Hunger Games.
Silence.
That all will be eaten.
Hommus and rice cakes.

Switched at Birth 4.01

This may be one of my favorite episodes of the show. We’re in college now and I have to admit, I did get emotional very quickly and stayed that way till the end. I absolutely adored John’s reaction to the news of Bay taking the blame. I am not sure if I am happy about Daphne not going to Galudett when they have a real pre med program, but as long as we’re keeping Marlee Matlin on the show, I’m happy. Just imagine how average the show would be without her. I can’t wait to see Daphne at college, the show it’s gonna get better just because of that.

I saved my sister’s life and I feel lucky.
That is brilliant!
Bay Kennish, you’re under house arrest.
Melody, some parents want to meet you.
Yeah, I heard that.
With some dude who arranged to have a brick thrown at your mother’s head?
A family feel.
She said as long as I’m in college she’s fine with it.
You redit it.
What deaf program?
You’re hard of hearing?
Fully deaf.
Someone fluent in ASL and chemistry before Monday?
Her other mom.
She just gave me a 100 days more of community service.
How would you like to make a hell lot of money this semester?
I can’t believe there’s even one of you.
So you can go off and make films for your community from your perspective.

Pretty Little Liars 5.14

I don’t know, sometimes I think I’m 15 or sth, cause I cried when Ali finally got arrested and the detective told Spencer they dropped the charges and they now think Ali killed both Mona and Bethany. How could I not cry? Bitch is behind bars and that’s all that matters. Even though she’s not A, she still deserves pain for being mean and bitchy to everyone. The girls are finally talking about college, It’s annoying how they stretched out 2 years to 5 years. The police playing the tape of Mona’s murder was my favorite part of the episode. Also, they got Mrs Grunwald back, but she couldn’t tell us more than that Mona’s in purgatory. The arrest scene was excellent as well, felt proud the girls were there. It’s surprising how I finally stopped complaining about the show and now actually think my life would be missing something without Rosewood.

Showing up to your victim’s funeral. Classy.
It was her, Alison, alive.
We all wanted to stuff Ali in that empty coffin.
It all seems to go back to Radley, doesn’t it?
Whistle.
I want you to help me find the body of the girl that’s suppossed to be in that box.
I know she’s your sister, but so am I.
I see, but through a glass, darkly.
There’s no peace. Only fear.
Sure ali has an alibi, but how strong can it be when Ali’s DNA is found at the crime scene.
Okay. Teach me.
You guys tell Mona’s mom she has cameras in her house.
Mona put them in herself.
Shut up, Ali.
Alison DiLaurentis, you’re under arrest for the murder of Mona Vandervaal.
The Mona you knew. The real Mona.
I bought a 69 dollar ticket to Atlantic City.
The police thinks Alison set you up.
She got out.
No gates, no dams, no barriers.
No I do not accept this.
They don’t allow fireworks in prison, right?

The good wife 6.11

Kalinda got herself Into some serious mess. I wish they showed us more scenes of Diane killing it. Weren’t we just shipping Alicia with Palmer? Why is she kissing the head of her campaign? I haven’t seen an episode the entire Christmas break but wasn’t she having accidental dates with Palmer? I’m glad Cary’s out but at what price. Also, that was quick. I really thought Cary would go to jail.

Yeah, he’ll call you. Like it’s the first day of school.
Now let’s find you a white friend.
Export not import.
Judge doesn’t like you.
Take her phone. Hide it.
6hours.
We’ve had worse.
What the hell?
This is very dramatic.
Less talking. More sex.
Chew like this.
How about you show me how to make it hypothetically.
I can’t figure anything out.
We pulled it from his computer.
Sit down and stop lying.
You’re free to go Mr Agos.
