I was about to pause the episode after the scary stranger plot wrapped up, but Huevos Rancheros Hotel brought back my breakfast loving gringo ass
WHAT?!? I do NOT remember my tapes having a fucking content warning for The Mysterious Stranger… and it did in fact scare the everloving FUCK out of me
Man, I wasn't expecting to smile so wide at hearing that interstitial. So wild meeting a character like him again after knowing where the story goes (as of November '25).
Oh god the Spanish is so bad!! I think I'm crying I'm laughing so hard!
My headcannon is Professor Webster eventually took his own life due to his face being permanently green
It is a tower, in a room that nobody knows about, even the guy who owns the house, but no actually Whit knows about it because he knows everything and this show is just my mind breaking into millions of little pieces thank you.
As always I am enjoying this episode, but I enjoyed the brief NFL playoffs sidebar. I didn’t expect that any of you would care about sports, but it always makes me happy when theater adjacent people do, even a little. Go Birds! Sincerely, a diehard Steelers fan, but gotta rep my state I guess!
josh is the only one who cares about sports. once the summer rolls around he's going to become really insufferable about the mets again
Gonna have to make a ringtone out of the bottle popping clip.
make it your text tone
Am I missing some more wordplay in AJ's Death Cab for Cutie joke or did he really just whiff both of those album titles Edit: I see the bit now.
oh my goddd that moment when brian just went ham on the soundboard was an amazing brick joke. ive never felt so rewarded for following along with a series
Learning Hal Smith is from Petoskey took me the fuck out
