Welcome back everyone to Shoujo, the anime podcast where I, Sarah, introduce my good friend Joe here to Shoujo anime. I am the expert, Joe's the newcomer. And we're covering the best Shoujo ever currently. So this is as good as gonna get. It's all downhill from here. But yeah, so we're talking episodes 37 and 38 of The Rose of Versailles. But before we jump into that, let's catch up. What's going on in Jotown? I have been engaging
with a lot of Star Wars stuff. I listened to the original Timothy's on Thrawn trilogy of books. So that's Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rises and The Last Command. And I just finished that up, which is like a series of books that were meant to be like a sequel series of like the original, you know, four or five, six movies. And I had a really good time. I like. The characters in the original Star Wars movies, I think they're fun. It's fun to hang out with Luke and Lando
and Han and all those guys and Leia. She's a lightsaber in this one. That's cool. So I listened to an audiobook and they had like all the Star Wars sounds and stuff in it because it's an audiobook. So I have done that and that was a good time. And because I'm, you know, I did that because I'm following along with a podcast, kind of like how our podcast works. You can follow along with her as a fun side with us. I've also finished season 3 of Star Wars Rebels, the cartoon show.
Oh, okay. The third season. There's one last season. And then I've watched all of Rebels. New? No. No, no. It's very old. Well, it was a short film. Let's bring it back for a season three, way after original errors or something. No, it's... What is it from? It's from... 2014 to 2018. OK. Old as hell. It's pretty good. You know, I'm liking it pretty well. It's fun. It's been a while since we talked about it. Yeah, it's because, you know, I had not been doing
anything with it for a while. I'd set it down because I was really in Gundam mode, but now I am coasting on Gundam mode. Even though I'm enjoying Gundam X, I'm just watching it very slowly, maybe because I'm also watching like the podcast I listened to about one is watching that one and. Ghost in the Shell standalone complex season two or second gig. And I am not as hot on second gig. And so I am second gig. That's the season title. Second gig. Yes. The second
sounding. It's good. Everybody loves when they have long names. So that's what I've been up to. Lots of Star Wars. But think about Star Wars a lot. So if I mentioned Star Wars in this, it's because I was thinking about it. OK, did you have a really great send off episode three in theaters? I think so. For the 20th anniversary. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, no, no, not for the 20th anniversary. I thought you meant real life. No, I first came out in theaters right now. Is it?
I didn't know that. Yeah. Uh huh. Oh, or at least here here in Texas it is. Here's the thing. Yeah. The the. 3d animated shows the clone wars and rebels are kind of an attempt to rehabilitate the prequel movies Mmm, that makes sense And I think they mostly succeed at that I am like way more interested in the prequel stuff having after like watching these shows That being said, I don't know if I really want to watch the prequel movies again. They're not that good Mm -hmm.
I mean, I guess Revenge of the Sith is the best one. So that's not a bad one to have to see in theaters. That's out of the three. That would be the one I'd want to see. Maybe we can cover that someday as a bonus episode. Just talk about Star Wars. I feel like I'm just going to fixate on the like alarming relationship between Leia and Anakin. Maybe Padme? Yes. Sorry. She's like old. You said Alea, his daughter. Oh, no. Oopsie. Yep, I meant Padme. Spoilers for Star Wars episode
three and I guess five. All right. That's a six thing, isn't it? That's a reveal in six. Anyway, Star Wars is fun. I'm not worried. All of this is because like Andor is coming out. So I'm like trying to finish all of the coverage of Rebels because they finished it out on the podcast and what's the detail so they can cover Andor as it comes out. Andor season two. And I liked Andor season one, so I want to get to Andor season two. I got to go in order. I'll check it out.
I feel like I keep hearing good things about it. It's like a Andor is like a fascinating show because on one hand, it's just like good prestige TV. And on the other hand, it's like in the Star Wars universe as a prequel to Rogue One, which is a prequel to episode four. So it's also like,
I don't know. Like a complicated setup, but it's like it's weird because I can't really think of any other instance where like a long running franchise has like a prestige thing that it does that just kind of worked that hadn't really worked up to this point. And I guess people like the Mandalorian, but it's nothing like that. You know what I mean? And I keep trying to think of like another franchise that's like long. It'd be like if Jurassic Park just suddenly had like
a prestige TV show, like an HBO show. That'd be nice somebody can finally do it right since 1993. Maybe yeah It's like they get like a prequel where it's like Hammond like making those things and they're having the corporate Espionage is like a big part of it and like their final their last -ditch effort is to send the guy off in one You know what I mean? That's how you would
do it. I feel like Yeah, yeah, so it's just weird that Star Wars gets this and I'm like that's weird cuz Star Wars is usually like I think the cartoons are good and the movies are good except for the newer ones Actually, all the newer ones are bad. I mean, I like The Last Jedi, but Jesus Christ, The Rise of Skywalker is so bad. They're such a lame name. Oh, I don't know why I'm fixating so much on names, but it's brutal. It's so bad. But yeah, so. But they got the little penguin
looking bird things. Yeah, the little guys. The little freaks. They're fun. Yeah. That's what I've been doing. It's just all Star Wars. I'm just like, let's go. Let's get out there. Let's let's let's like I like snort a bunch of Star Wars real quick before I go back to Gundam. OK. Oh, Lord. OK, nice, nice. I take it you haven't been doing this as well. No, I haven't. Let's see. What have I been doing? You've been betraying me. We have a new course. Oh, I. Sorry, no, go
ahead. Tell me like three times It's okay tell me what your course you don't have to do this You can be you can be blaze L in our playthrough people don't even know we're talking about right now. Okay bothers gate and I I think I mentioned it a few episodes ago I started to play through with someone else even though I had started play through with Joe at one point and we were like We're totally gonna do it. We even don't care like half or the end of episode of talking about
our playthrough. Although the same thing happened where the children got mad at one of my companions. They didn't... I didn't get thrown in jail this time, but... Mole and they're trying to rat us out, like saying we did something to the kids, but the person I was playing with was able to talk their way out of it. Wow. Baldur's Gate 3. Sounds like a fun game. I hope to play it one day. Yeah, we can We could I guess I'll never know if you get mine whatever I assume you just
die. I don't even think baldergate is in the game As far as I know it's just a thing people talk about It's called Raptor Clips Oh, it's dinosaurs. Oh, and it's cute. So I'm excited for that. I'm doing trivia on Wednesday. I'm going to be dressed as Dr. Alan Grant, even though it's not a Jurassic Park. Of course, it's dinosaurs and that's what I've got. OK, it'll be fun. And let's see, I went on a second date. With someone
yesterday. That was good. Yeah, it's been a while since I've like actually tried to like actually go out and do something with someone. I've just been like, oh, I'm active in that regard for winter. So that makes sense. You don't have to do things in winter. You get like a pass. That's the time I can do it, though. I went to I went to this like, I don't know, like foundation day.
Festival thing for dripping Springs, which is just like it was so it's like a little tiny almost like a rodeo where it's all the like Crappy rides that like you yeah A lot of barbecue leather purses for sale It was so hot and we're not even there yet the high was like 87. It's so hot already I'm not gonna make it Just make all of your activities like swimming activities or something. You're like submerged. Well, it makes it even easier to get sunburned because then the sun reflection
bounces off the water onto your face. Not if you stay under that water. Just get really into diving. I have scuba certified. Well, there you go. Just do that every day. I don't have a buddy to go with. I can't go alone or I'll die. Hey, you know, maybe this is your chance. This is how you can meet the one. The one but I'm not that I haven't scuba dived in probably five years and Was perfect. I would be a bad buddy for someone
else. You could show up and be like, oh If only as a strong hand would show me how to scuba dive. I haven't done it in five lonely years You reach around and adjust your goggles really affectionately or something. I don't know how you make that sexy, but it's probably possible. Cricut, what are you doing? Don't chew on that pencil. This could happen. You can manifest this. I don't know about that. I've been playing more Stardew.
And yeah. Let's see. I think I might, for real, like, Joe, I could, I'll just move to Columbus in September or something. How does that sound? Yeah, do it. You can show up right when it gets cold. I think I can. I think I actually can now. Oh. So maybe I should come back and visit. Yeah, you should. The cheap places. That you're too good to live in. Yeah, I live in the most expensive place you could ever possibly live in. The cheapest, and you live in the most expensive. All of my
friends constantly tell me this. I want to live by that cute little book store, but that's like, quaintest part of town, so I bet that's expensive. Yeah. Those are like million dollar houses. Bam. I don't think that's in the budget. There's other places though. There's plenty of places. That would be fun, right? That would be fun. Yeah, no, that'd be good. We could start recording in person. Yeah. We'll, again. And then we won't, we won't actually interrupt each other. We would
still record over Discord. I don't know why we're saying this. I don't, even if we lived in the same place, we'd probably still do it online. No, yeah. What if there's like a fancy, I feel like there should be a company that has like audio booths that you can just rent out like you do at - There might be. At like recording studios. What's that place? Yeah, that sounds
so official though. It probably is. Like the audio version of WeWork or something, you know, where you just show up for a few hours and then you're out there. That might be. I wouldn't be surprised by that. I mean, you know, we should probably like make any amount of money to start doing that would be good. But, you know, it could be in the cards. That's right. You heard the man. Yeah. Think technically in our link tree. There's a I feel like I have a donation set up
somewhere. I don't know Okay, well better visibility We're just gonna use it to do a bunch of Like like what is it money laundering? That's we're gonna use it for increase that listener base, you know? I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to spoil the analytics, but the Rose of Versailles is not the most, the most popular show of all time. Dang. No. We got to make it. No, this is what it is. We got to dress up super
crazy and then people ask us, what are you? And then we say, we're the hosts, the shojo at a convention or something. Oh, see, I feel like. We gotta, what we gotta do is that we get, we gotta just cover every other popular thing. No, no, no. I think we're good. I think we need to cover every popular thing that has like a fandom that exists. And then we all point them to this show and being like, you know, it was so much
better when Joe and Sarah talked about it. When, when Rosa Versailles did this thing, y 'all should watch the show from 1979. Yeah. Yeah. Well. We'll see. Maybe we're having a Shojo Renaissance. I just saw they announced a sequel series to a manga that I was collecting probably in like 2007. So Beauty Pop is having a sequel come out. So maybe we're starting. And I think there's a new Shojo that I feel like is good that I've
heard something. Anyway, so maybe maybe. This will be a good second half of the year for Shojo. Yeah. Well, hey, if there is, that's good, because that means we got in early enough to be in it, you know. That's right. We're established. Uh -huh. We sure have been doing it. We got we got experience now, you know. Uh -huh. What have we learned just up to this point? We learned so we end every episode with what we learned.
We've learned so many things. You just make like a big montage of everything we've ever learned. We learn things at the end of every episode lots about how to like not assassinate people from San just we learned several things about that I don't remember what we learned from school. We learned some stuff from skip beat probably by some fashion tips don't date don't be romantically interested in a 16 year old. Yeah, that's true. Mm -hmm. I Stand by that one. That's a big takeaway.
It's a big thing Well, I guess we could get into the Rose of Versailles. Get into the show. And see what we're going to learn from the second to last episode of our coverage of the show. That's right. The penultimate episode of coverage, which is we covered two episodes and you may be saying, oh, this will probably be a short podcast episode. I don't know. A lot of things happen in these two episodes. It's crazy. So
let's get into it. The Rose of Versailles episode 37 is called On the Night of Their Passionate Vows. That says it all, honestly. You don't even need to watch the episode. That's the summary. There's some passionate vows and nothing else happens at all. Don't worry about it. Oh, goodness. All right. We open on Andre recapping the events of last episode in his journal. Things have gotten bad and it seems like the revolution is here. Andre rushes to watch the final moments of this
era. He's like I'm gonna watch it with my good eye I'm definitely gonna make it all the way to the end He says as the OP plays we return on Oscar visiting the doctor late at night He diagnoses her with consumption aka tuberculosis. Good job, Sarah called it I did, yeah, I did. Everybody dies of that lung disease, getting consumed. Oscar is like, how long do I have,
doctor? And the doctor insists that if she takes it easy, maybe like out in the countryside, don't you guys own a villa by the sea or something? You should go there. She could recover. It's possible, he insists. But Oscar's like, no, if I'm going to die, I'm going out the way I want to. And the doctor tells her that she has maybe three months to live. Oscar goes to leave. Big news. Yeah. It means we're not going to get she's not going to live to Marie getting her head cut
off because that's in three years. That's a bummer. I know. Dang. Well, I guess she'd probably rather it be that way. But maybe. I mean, she could. You know, this is just this is just a diagnosis. Anything could happen. Maybe she goes to the countryside and just chills. Is that what happens in this episode? Who knows? I don't think so. No. Oscar goes to leave, but the doctor asks her how Andre is. And Oscar's like, Andre, what's wrong with him? And the doctor's like, oh, this
is a HIPAA violation. If HIPAA was around back then. Oh, patient information. Yeah, the doctor tells her that he is going blind. I mean, Andre is going blind. The doctor's fine. We learned that in the city, bakers are selling weapons instead of bread. So that's how it's going in Paris. Yeah, where'd they get that? People still need bread. God. Yeah, I don't know. It's more expensive to acquire weapons than bread. Probably. Well, you know, who knows? Bread goes bad. You
know, bread is temporary. Weapons are forever, I guess. If you toast it, then it's like it was going to be crunchy anyways. That's you know, that's true. Yeah. Oscar gets ready to go to work, and Granny reminds her that the painter is supposed to come by and finish the painting today. And then she heads out. At the barracks, the men discuss how Company A was dispatched and prepped for battle against the rioters. They're like, dang, I sure hope that doesn't happen to
us. Who knows what we would do in that situation. Oscar arrives at the barracks, and everything is quiet. Her Lieutenant Colonel Dogust tells
her that Company A was dispatched. but no fighting is broken out Oscar asks if he thinks company B will be dispatched and August says probably give me one second sorry if my audio was weird I like closed my doors and that created a weird echo so if I sounded weird for the last 23 minutes don't worry about it it's normal for there to be some kind of we've only been doing this for a year on brand surely I would I would remember to open the doors uh let's see Before leaving
it Douglas turns and says hey commander you look pale and worn out Maybe you should take some sick leave and Oscar's like no, man. I'm fine I'm definitely not dying but the lieutenant er, but the Colonel says that his wife died last year of consumption So he knows what the symptoms looks like he's known Oscar's been sick with this for a while. He could have diagnosed her He tears up and Oscar thanks him and decides that she is gonna go home for the day. Why why
not take a break? I thought that was nice. Yeah, that was a really sweet moment. Yeah, poor guy. We haven't really seen that guy much, but he gets two nice moments in this episode. Yeah. Well, I guess he's the only one who didn't give her a hard time when she came on board. That's true. Because I guess he's a fellow noble, so. He is also a noble, yeah. He's like old. He's like an old man. He's got a mustache. White hair.
Typical noble. Typical noble. Oscar summons Andre whose vision is failing rapidly He comes into her office and gives his report to an empty chair because he can't see that Oscar isn't there in the office and instead she's standing in his blind spot He's seen realizes that he's not or that she's not there and then leaves and Oscar is left to mourn for Andre's eyes She's like he really is going blind. He just talked to this chair for like a whole minute Yeah, that's embarrassing.
Pretty bad. She meets him outside and apologizes for not being in her office. She tells him to accompany her home, and he's like, but aren't we on standby? But then she takes his hand and says that she needs an escort and she wants it to be him. Being direct now. In the streets, crowds are gathering. The pirate man says, see, the tri -colored flag, that's the flag of freedom. And the crowd starts to break into storehouses and manors all over Paris. He must be, like,
a local celebrity. Someone helps him walk, too. Yeah. I bet everyone's like, oh, we love Uncle Pirate. That's true. He's the best. He just pumps out the tunes, you know? Ha ha, yeah. Back at the Jarjays, Oscar is getting her painting finished. The only thing left to paint is her stunning blue eyes. The painting is finished, and we get a look at the full thing. It's an enormous painting of Oscar on a horse dressed as Mars, the god
of war. General Jarjays and Granny look at it, while Andre, who's unable to see anything at the moment, waits by the door. That's a good portrait. It's a big portrait. That thing was way bigger than I thought it was gonna be. Well... The bigger the better, I guess. That's true. You want it to be big. Later, Andre stares at the painting, trying to make it out, while Oscar behind him drinks wine. Andre starts describing
what he thinks he sees, but it's all wrong. Oscar tears up knowing that Andre will never be able to see the painting as it truly is. But Andre continues to describe a painting that he sees in his mind of Oscar in a rose field wearing a laurel wreath. We get a shot of Andre's imaginary painting and Oscar says that it's fantastic. She's like, thank you for imagining this painting. So embarrassing. This is sweet. You think it's embarrassing? No. I'm so embarrassed for Andre.
Which painting did you like more? Did you like Andre's imaginary painting? No. Where, like, Oscar is not the deliverer of death? I know, but that one had a much better composition. This one was just, like, random things hanging out on a painting together, but not looking an interesting way. That's true. Yeah, I do like that Andre imagines Oscar as being gentler than the God of War. Yeah. Well, I mean, that's the image Oscar probably wants to be remembered as. Her
legacy. Which one? Is the the God of War one. Oh, you think so? So it's just kind of like the whole vibe is what she's been, you know, trying to put off, give up to people. So maybe I'll have more to say about that later. Alain and some men come ride to the Jargeys and tell Oscar that tomorrow Company B is ordered to be dispatched to Paris. Oscar's like, oh, they finally done it, I guess, and Alain says, yup, they sure have.
Oscar says she'll return to the barracks in a little while, so don't wait up, and they leave. In the stables, André prepares his horse, or both of their horses, and then he sees someone's behind him, but can't make out who it is. At first, he thinks it's Oscar, but then it's revealed that it's actually General Jargeys. The general tells André, that it seems like some battle will break out soon and it might be the last time
they ever see each other. Because listen, man, you're blind and you're definitely going to die in this battle. I have no faith that you're going to live through this, Andre, I'm sorry. The general says, yeah, but then the general says that if Andre had been a noble, he would have given his wholehearted blessing to marry Oscar. Oscar walks up and sees the general tell Andre to come back safe. So that's sweet. Closure. Yeah, who's gonna take care of your horses if he's gone? It's true.
Yeah Toast too Nobody's making it out of this That's you know good good bet Oscar and Andre right out on the road They run into some riders who see them in turn to attack them Oscar and Andre escape by riding their horses across a nearby river The writers throw things at them as they wait across and Andre is struck in the head knocking him out Oscar pulls them all to the other side and they get away We cut to writers in the forest declaring that they've had it.
Even if it means death, they're gonna take the city Oscar sees this and decides that they're gonna go a different way into Paris. We're not gonna go this way They ride off through the woods and Oscar scolds Andre for not telling her about his eye She says that he'll have to go back to the manor, he can't go into battle in his condition. So please do this Andre, I can't let anything happen to you, she says. But Andre says no, he
wants to be by her side, now and forever. Oscar lowers her eyes and says, but Andre... I knew how you felt about me, but I fell in love with first in any way. How could you really love me after that? And Andre says that he loves everything about her. Oscar says she loves him, too. And Andre says he's known that since the beginning. And then the two of them kiss. And she says, like, I don't know. Like, I've loved you since before I was born or something. He's like, I
know that. Like, this is weird. OK, but. It's crazy. Stop going down here. Among the Fireflies, the two of them make love, thus becoming husband and wife. I don't think that is how it works legally, but. Oh, yeah, I'm sorry. They have to ask the king for permission for nobles to get married. They should get on that. That's
not going to stop them. Later that night. Yeah later that night general charges looks at the portrait of Oscar He comments that he didn't get a chance to say bye to her after she left But like whatever like she's not gonna die in combat the way Andre is it'll be fine Granny shows up with a letter from Oscar He tells her to read it to him and she's shocked by the contents only a single sentence saying quote Thank you for all the love and devotion you have bestowed
on a daughter like me unquote the general is like What is she saying? This sounds like a goodbye. No, I won't allow it. I won't. And then we cut away. So I guess that's the end of that. They've eloped just like they said they would. Daughter, an afterthought. Oh, yeah. Maybe I should say bye to her, too. It's like, oh, I forgot to say bye to Oscar. I mean, like, she's not going to die. She's the god of war. So it's fine. We see Oscar and Andre riding off to the barracks as
we cut to credits. Bow chicka wow wow this is pretty normal episode all happened in one episode We got it yay, we weren't sure if we were gonna get closure or Addressment relationship, and we did yay Yeah, how do we how do we feel about it? I hate that they're now calling I hate that she's now referring to herself as his wife. I don't have more to say. That's fun. No, it's
not. That's not who she is. Well, she doesn't like an extremely goofy way next episode and everyone's like, listen, you don't need to keep doing this. We will talk about it. Very funny. Like, duh. Whatever. At least they both got to get it on before it's all done. Yeah. Uh, so I guess like jumping back to the beginning, uh, we're confirming that she's gonna die, basically, right? And that Andre is gonna go blind, and he's going into battle, so he's probably also
gonna die. Yeah. So, like, just, neither one will have to live without the other. Yeah, so we know that they're both gonna die here. Um, which, like, is interesting. Because they're fictional. Why? Bummer ass end to show? Yeah,
well... Guess I'll have a little bit more to say I can have like an overall thing to say at the end there But it's interesting that they like kind of tell us this right It's not like there's no real question if Oscar's gonna make it out I mean, I guess she still technically could but they wouldn't do this if she would right? Yeah, I don't think so. So it's interesting that they sign post that so early on in this episode Then we have we're gonna get dispatched
the August is like in Sad. That Oscar's gonna die. Let's see. The painting, I like Andre's version better. I think Andre understands Oscar better. I feel like Oscar being the God of War is how everybody wanted to see her and not necessarily how she wanted everybody to see her. You know what I mean? Yeah. People project on Oscar a lot. Yeah, that's true. Well, she didn't allow people to really know anything else, so they can't but help. Like, you know, envision that
as her. Also, her reaction was kind of muted. Really? What? To her, the painting she got? Yeah. Well, don't you think she just got the painting, which she had been refusing up to this point? Because she knows she's going to die. That's true. No, I like I like the painters better. Yeah, I do like. He's like, if you don't want it, I'll take it home. Yeah, that's pretty funny. The painting. Yeah. I do like how in Andre's imaginary painting, the horse is still there,
but Oscar just isn't riding it. It's like Oscar in the background is the horse and then there's a bunch of roses. It's very funny. Yeah, no, I just think because I took art history, but I'm like, no, it doesn't work. That doesn't follow the golden ratio at all. I can't draw that little little curl on that thing. Yeah, yeah. And then they get together. Yeah, I mean, we get like. Oscar's hair conveniently gets extra long so it can hide her butt when they're showing them
embracing. That's right. Nude. It's important sense of shit. And then and then the like fancy our heads are just, you know, in the ether next to each other with their long eyelashes closed. And yeah, similar to how we got with Ferguson and Marie previously. Oh, that's true. Well, I don't think we got as clear of a like, oh, they definitely went for it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But not definitely go for it all the way. Yeah. Oh, it's that time. Well, they're both like almost
40, I guess. Yeah, they're like late 30s. Mm hmm. Yeah. How do we feel about the well, the part? OK, so I really like the scene where the general like gives Andre his blessing kind of in a way or like, yeah, it's like basically saying he would have. Because that is the most like, oh, like if we didn't have this social structure, y 'all could have just gotten together whenever. But because we live in a world with nobles and commoners, we just had to pretend like none of
this was happening for forever. And that's that's interesting. And then and then like when they do the confession thing on her, Oscar is all like, I don't know, ashamed, embarrassed that she was in love with Furson, even though she knew that Andre liked her. Yeah, well cuz now
it's like she's changed her mind. Yeah Maybe or she doesn't think he'd believe her maybe But I mean we only found out like a couple episodes ago, so She's probably still processing it you think she was gonna put the moose on him no matter what or it was just because I Think she's dying Well, yes, I think it's cuz they're like I think they're both the end is near for both of them in terms of they're both dying and also the end is near in terms of like tomorrow Yeah, they're
gonna have bad days ahead even if they weren't dying, you know what I mean? It's like they this is the I mean Or they will die from combat. So yeah. Yeah, so I Let's do it. Yeah We'll have a whole thing at the end of this. Episode 38 of The Rose of Versailles is called At Fate's Door. We open on a recap of the last episode where Oscar and Andre got together and now they're riding off to the barracks. The narrator tells us that this is the morning of July 13th, 1789,
and it will be Andre's final day. Oh, he's dying. Once again, just telling you what's going to happen. Yeah. Good stuff. I love it when shows do this. Yeah Oscar and Andre show up at the barracks. She tells the men that their orders are to deploy which is awkward because like, you know We're gonna be fighting the crowd and you guys probably have family and friends in the crowd So obviously I'm not gonna like order you to shoot them Uh, because if I did, you probably
wouldn't anyway. Anyway, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to resign my command and follow my husband's lead. Oh, right. I'm married to Andre now. I guess this is big news. Whatever. Anyway, Andre, my husband, what do you want to do? And Alon is like, Alon just laughs and is like, all right, Oscar, you don't need to quit. Uh, listen, we, the guys have been talking. We decided to defect immediately. So if shooting breaks out, we're going to like join the side
of the people. And like we all want you in charge if that happens. So like if you're on board, that's great. You could just be our commander still. And Andre is like, that's great. We should do that. And Oscar retakes command. And everybody does like a Captain My Captain bit and Alon congratulates them on their marriage. Oh, this is why I hate that. I'm going to take my I'm going to follow my husband's lead. Let me now just immediately take on a like subservient role. The gender essentialism
is here. I mean, the thing I do like is that this is something that Oscar feels like she needs to do, but then everybody's like, no, you don't need to do that. None of us think that's a good idea, including Audrey, who thinks it's a bad idea. Oh, God, I just hate. Oh, we're husband
and wife? Well, let me live. No, like I don't like it Oscar for as rebellious Oscar is she does always kind of give deference to like higher Structural orders and things like that until somebody like gives her permission not to you know what I mean? Like she is not the person who's going to break etiquette Unless there's a reason and then she will like accept the punishment for it You know what I mean, and that that feels
like what's happening here. It's like well She can't just be the wife and decide to do something She has to get, like, permission, even though everybody's like, that's stupid. You don't need to do that. None of us like it when you do that. Yeah. Ugh. Ah, continue. We then all turn our attention to General Douglas, who's just watching this from the doorway. He's a noble and isn't going to defect like the rest of them. And Oscar's
like, so what are you going to do? And Douglas says that, well, I guess he technically is going to have to report this mutiny to command. But, you know, I was planning on taking the rest of the day off, so I guess I'll just have to report the mutiny tomorrow. And then he leaves and Alanna's like, thanks, Doggist, you're a real, you're a real homie. And he leaves. So that's cute. I like, I like Doggist. He's not selling his friends out, not joining them, but not selling
them out. I wonder if he has kids. I don't know. I mean, he's like, alone, right? I was going to say if he has kids. then I guess it makes sense that he has to stand his ground and protect the legacy for their future if things don't go the Rebels' way. But if it's just him solo and his wife is toast, then I would have just gone for it, but I guess... Maybe. Maybe he should just, like, get out of town. Maybe he should go to Oscar's villa by the sea. He's like, Hey,
you got the key? I'll just go take care of it for you. The men are in themselves and mount up and they all ride into the city. In Paris, the military and civilians are at a standoff in Tilleries Square. Both sides are pointing guns at each other. The military commander is like, where the hell did all these guys get guns from? They didn't have these guns yesterday. What happened? A civilian steps forward to mock the military but his wife and child come and
pull him back. But then a soldier accidentally fires and hits the kid in the back and everybody including the soldier looks on horrified. It's very much giving when that kid got shot by the jerk she dueled. Yeah, that was very intentional. This seems like a back, you know, when you have hundreds of people pointing guns at each other, one of them will screw up at some point. Yes. Yep. Oopsie. Oops. I shot a child in the back. The crowd surrounds the dying child and the civilians
decide to rush the soldiers. The soldiers open fire on the people killing a lot of them. The two lines clash into each other and the narrator tells us that this is the start of the French Revolution, even though this is kind of like a day earlier than most people regard that, but you know, here we are. Oscar gets word of the skirmish in the square and they rush to help.
Back at the square, the narrator tells us that despite their numbers, The people had no formal training and were essentially mowed down because they were not getting into military formation. We see Bernard and Rosalie lead people away from the square into the side streets to retreat. Company B meets the retreating people in the streets and tells them that they're on their side. The crowd is skeptical, but lets them pass
through. Oscar makes it to the square and the military officer in charge introduces himself as L 'Ambesque, commander of the German cavalry regiment. So these guys are not French. Oscar introduces - Okay. But the French. OK. Oh, never mind. Hold on. There's like an insane number of factions of the French armed forces there. It's like so many different uniform colors and. Yeah, so it's very confusing. Yeah, this is why I was saying like pulling your pulling your military.
It gets messy, especially if none of these guys you really know what their loyalties are. I mean, these guys are like. Probably mercenaries. I don't know. A fancy name. Fancy name. Oscar introduces herself as Oscar Francois. Francois. Francois. Francois. That's like her middle name. Is that her middle name? I don't know, because like this is not her last name and it's not Andre's last name. No, no, no. Well, maybe this is her last name, but Chargé's is the title of the family.
Oh. Okay, cuz I couldn't tell what name this was, cuz I'm like, did she take Andrei's name, but Andrei's last name isn't this? No, we've seen it before. It's like Grandeur or something. We've seen this name before. Yep. But then she says she has no title and no rank, and Lambesque is like, excuse me, but Oskar raises her hand and her men point guns at the German cavalry.
She tells Lambesque to pull back or be shot, and Lambesque is like, oh shit, you guys are defecting, and then he pulls all his men back. Yep. Oskar takes her military insignia and throws it on the ground. The people come back to the square and ask Oscar if she's on their side. She says yes, but they still don't trust them. Oscar disarms and dismounts and walks into the crowd. She said that she used to be a noble, but her men are all commoners. They have convinced
her to fight for the third estate. You may not trust her, but you can trust them. Bernard pushes through the crowd to Oscar and declares that he will trust Oscar and Company B. The crowd recognizes Bernard and they're like, oh shit, it's that one guy. And they all decide to trust them too. Everybody shakes hands and has a good time Bernard tells Andre that he knew this day would come and they shake hands, too Meanwhile Rosalie goes and hugs Oscar cuz she's here too.
Whoo -hoo reunion She doesn't have a sword. Why I don't know Rosalie is not armed. She should be she has the most training disappointing It's bad they taught her how to shoot. Yeah To have her moment. She does. Next two episodes. My God. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, she definitely does. We need to we need to get a scene of Rosalie shooting a guy. Or it was all for nothing. Yes, for real. Elsewhere, another military company is on their way to retake the square. Oscar and her men order.
No, Oscar orders her men to mount up and cut them off. She tells Bernard to build a barricade in the streets while they all stall them. And Bernard's like a barricade. And Oscar's like, yeah, just like pile a bunch of shit up. You know, it's the French Revolution, dude. We're making a barricade. Company B rides off. I guess you just had to think that people just didn't
have the resources to know these things. We just know them because we learned about them in, like, history or video games and stuff, but, like, I guess it's just not a concept. That's true. You know, people with a very determined role without any, like, room for exploration. Like, because it seems obvious, but, you know. Yeah.
At some point, it wasn't obvious. You know, I think in real life probably what happened was all of the retired soldiers are like you got to build a barricade Like you got to just stack a bunch of shit up Anyway Oscar sees the military company And they charge into their rear. I guess I should note that company B is entirely mounted It's about 50 mounted soldiers and the guys are charging into are all on foot The company is caught off guard, and Company B is able to charge
them. During the fight, Andre's eye loses sight, and he is narrowly saved by Elan. He almost dies right here. After a few chaotic moments, Oscar orders a withdrawal, and her men write off. Hit him and run off. However, word has gotten round of Company B's defection and another cavalry guard is waiting to ambush them. The narrator tells us that by 3 p .m., multiple clashes between the military and armed civilians have broken
out all over Paris, creating chaos. Remember that thing I said about 10 riots instead of one? Here you go, baby. Yeah, a company B turns a corner and rides directly into the ambush Oscar turns the company around but they suffer heavy losses on the retreat They run into another ambush line and Oscar realizes that they've been hemmed in Loseray tries to do a last stand charge, but is shot down. So rip to him Company be retrieved. Yeah, he tried his freckles are so cute Company
be retreats into the sewers. We learned that about half of their 50 -man company has been wiped out Oscar tells them that their only hope is to regroup with Bernard at the square They'll have to fight their way through to get there though because they're behind enemy lines We're doing like classic classic war movie stuff here Oscar and her company emerged from the sewers and are surprised by a guard stationed at the entrance The guard exchanges fire with Oscar,
but she's able to shoot him down However, we see at the bullet that the guard fired has hit Andre in the chest a couple people behind her and he falls while calling out to Oscar Oscar rushes to him as we cut to credits Well, there it is. Final day. Andre's final day. It's going to kill off. Yeah. 50 is such a small group of people to begin with, and now they're just 25. Yeah. I mean, for a company like they're all horse, like they're all mounted. Well, they're
just for more mostly patrolling the city. So I guess in that regards, it makes sense. But like deploying them doesn't seem too effective on their own if it was in a situation like this. Yeah, the news travels freaking fast and the world has no telephones or anything. I mean, it was a whole day, right? Like they got there in the morning and it looked like this happened in the evening. So like, you know, they had several hours to relay. Yeah, that's true. Orders around.
But yeah, chaos broke out. Oscar defects and is immediately like, let's just kill all these guys. Let's just let's just shoot our own guys in the army. Like fucking let's go. Trigger shy up to this point, but no more. Gloves off. Let's go. We're going for it. Yeah. Let's just shoot the cavalry though. That first cavalry group that shot all those people. Yeah. Some go. I guess that would have been disgraceful to just hit them. That's true. Oh, well, yeah, I guess.
Well, no, because then they like kind of ambush. I don't know. That's true. Anyway, what do you think about this episode? The war episode. War time, baby. We only had two episodes after this. I know. This is this whole show is just leading up to it more than anything else. But everything is happening all at once. I didn't think it'd go this way. I. You what? I didn't think they'd get wiped out before. Well, the thing that happens next. I mean, if you think about it, like until
Oscar and. Throughout Oscar's time there they like were just there to collect a check like I don't think they're necessarily fully invested in training and stuff at the time so Or this is their first real skirmish. Oh, I think they
did like they were effective, right? Because they didn't know they have no like Intel so they can't know if they're about to turn a corner into a whole line of guns I think they're like effective i'm just saying i didn't think this is how the show would go i didn't think oscar would just like immediately be like to be in it oh yeah right at the jump i mean the revolution has started i guess uh well we have no time she's going out day one yeah andre's dying and we have
two more episodes after this she's got to get into it it's true yeah uh God, do you have any bigger thoughts? Um, I don't I just this is just very like you gotta take it as it is There's not much room for interpretation at this point Uh, I mean I can say why hope comes next but what what is there to hope that comes next? What is there? I don't know Rosalie gets to shoot somebody do we think that's my only hope that's good Do you think oscar's gonna go like sicko
mode like punish oscar? I should be like taking dudes out Cause Andre is dying. She's gonna go like rage mode. She can go beast mode. I don't know. Cause that's the one option. I don't know what the other option. I guess that is the option. That would be so out of character. Because she's dying anyways and he dies. So there's no point in even trying to live longer unless it's really like, I got to do this for the people. Then she like, you know, does what she can until it's
resolved. And then, I don't know, wastes away or something. Yeah. Yeah. This is not gonna be a happy ending. The only good thing is gonna be that we get to see the end of... Oh my God, Queen Marie Antoinette. Oh, Marie Antoinette. You think they're, yeah. You think the lassie is who are getting her head cut off? You think they're gonna show? I don't know if they're gonna show it to us. Almost certainly. They gotta. I feel like if any show is gonna... They're like,
she'll be there. And then we pan off screen and then we see the birds fly from the sounds of the, you know, guillotine and the narrator talks. Do you think we get to find out who the narrator is? Like the identity or that's just... Oh, I don't think so. I think it's just like a device. Yeah. I bet it'll be guillotine comes down and we get like a match cut to somebody like pruning a rose or something and it like falls and... Oh, that's a good. That's a good. Yeah. We love
our roses. Over. She's got to die. We got to see the execution. There's no way we don't get that. Who? Who are we like ending the series on is like giving us a parting from the show. I mean, it has to be left. It has to be Marie, right? Like she's probably thinking of Oscar. Huh? Oh, I bet she thinks of Oscar at the end and then she gets her head cut off. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good ending. That's that's mine. That's my cold shot there. I like What?
Duke early on doesn't matter doesn't fucking matter. Oh my god the party a Couple episodes ago where they like they're like, oh Robespierre Duke early on is going to the palace to petition to become the new king Rose here's just like well, that's stupid It isn't gonna work who cares and that's the last we've ever hear of him Uh, maybe he died. Maybe. Oh, it's so funny. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, once we have the ending, we can like think on the show as a whole, it's
been really good. Although there are like certain things where it's like, oh, it feels like we like built this thing up and then anticlimactic or like it wasn't seen through to the end. I mean, in particular, I think of Rosalie with her whole thing with her mom and. Yeah, I mean. I don't think that was anti -climax, though. Well, we didn't get to see. Basically, it goes through Mom and then somehow. Yeah. I mean, that feels like a plot device to get her away from
Oscar. You know what I mean? Like that just seems like we got to separate everybody. It would have been nice to see that, though. I wish we got more time with Rosalie. Yeah. I mean, because it's. How many arcs have we had in this? Oh, my God. Like, there's the beginning. You know, there's the Madame. We have Madame Dewberry, like we get like. So it's initially Duke early on doing that stuff, trying to disrupt the wedding.
Yeah, it's Dewberry. And then we get Shane. Yeah, we get John and Rosalie kind of happening at the same time. And then we get what's your face? Charlotte's mom. Pontiac Pontiac. Yeah, we get her. That kind of all happens at the same time. And then first and shows up like a billion times throughout this. Yeah. Lots of time. All of those four things kind of happen all at the same time. And they call it intersected. Like, that's probably like the most fun part of the show. Yeah. Yep.
And then it's just been leaving. Charlotte dies. Pontiac gets kind of written off. She kind of fades first and. shows back up and that causes drama. And then it's Robespierre and Bernard and the Black Knight. And now we're here. Yeah. So it's a lot of different things have happened. I mean, it's a lifetime basically that we're seeing. So I guess that makes sense. Yeah. Which is just a very different setup than most animes
I've seen. Or it's like we're on a journey for a specific thing and maybe like that thing becomes more complicated, but still based off that thing. And this is just so many things. Yeah. I like how it's turned out, though, because I mean, I feel like the main through line and I guess I'll probably we'll see how it ends. But I feel like right now the main thing for me is like we get the we get the story from like essentially
three different class perspectives. Right. Or it's like we get Oscar, who's like a noble, who's kind of like in between. The royal family and the commoners she's like a very privileged position But also has like different things she has to do You know when she realizes that things are going bad her dad tells her to ignore it and
just follow orders or whatever, right? We also get Maria's perspective obviously is the Queen of France She's like on top of everything right like doesn't really answer to anybody except for the king, but she kind of manipulates him So she's kind of top dog And we see Rosalie, who's like a commoner who like goes through it the most. Most of her life is out of her hands.
Various things happen. She's able to like do kind of some stuff in terms of like getting revenge or not getting revenge, getting help from people, all that other stuff. So we kind of see how the system in place, right? Like the nobility system, the title system, the ASEAN regime, all that stuff is like exists and it makes all three of
them just miserable. Right. Like the fact that Marie has to be married to King Louis and can't marry Furson and just like go off somewhere and just like like her best life would be marrying Furson and just like fucking off somewhere. Right. And then none of this would have happened. You know. Yeah. And like Oscar clearly like in this episode, it is so like, oh, if Andre wasn't wasn't a commoner, like if Andre was a noble, you probably
would have just married him early on. And like all of these problems would have been avoided. Like, you wouldn't have to deal with the first thing. You know, there would be like... Well, she also probably wouldn't get involved in the whole revolution thing, though, because Andrei is kind of her little insight into that. Right. But it's like, if there wasn't the Atheon Regime, like, if there wasn't this regime, you wouldn't
even need a revolution. The revolution is about getting rid of this thing that just makes it like this system that exists to elevate people in power. But the people in power aren't really even benefiting from it. Like, they're all miserable, too. You know what I mean? Like Rosalie has a terrible time because she just like can't like her mother dies. She like has to scrap. And she kind of gets lucky by like hooking up with the
right people at the right time. But like, you know, could have easily ended up like how it did for Jean, which is like the same thing. Like, you know, they're both kind of in this same sinking ship and they have to do something. So like the whole the cohesion of the show being about like leading to the revolution, I think, like really fits together in terms of like, yeah, it's the society that you live in that is suffocating
you. Like, the structures that require of you, the things that are, like, the conveniences, the culture around it, the, I mean, like, the literal law of, like, oh, nobles can only get married to each other because the king lets them, is, like, the suffocating thing that is destroying everybody. And, like, it has to lead to a new era. And it's, um, it's both a bummer that, like, Oscar and Andre are not going to live to see
that era. But it is heartening to be like, they're gonna use their last time on Earth to fight for it, right? A future for someone else so they don't have to deal with those things. And like, you know. Yeah. Joe, you just came up with all that off the top of the dome. No, I thought about this earlier. I was thinking about this all today. This is all you. Okay, but like, you're making it... I feel bad. You feel bad? Like, you bring such class to this podcast. Oh no, I mean...
So sophisticated and... Well, partly I'm thinking about this because it's like, you know, this stuff happens. We live in a world now where there isn't class structure and like all of the people in power right now, I guess to date this podcast, all want to restore that. They all want to make these like... conservative structure hierarchies again that everybody hated and rebelled from the first time. And, like, it also makes them miserable. They all, like, I don't know. It seems
like all of them hate their lives, too. I'm just like, what is this for? It's like this system exists, but who is it benefiting and why does it exist? Like, everybody becomes beholden to the thing that, like, guides their life and they all, like, hate. Spite. The world is fueled by spite. Yeah. People who don't like... Don't want you to do that. So you do it. It doesn't have
to be that way. I mean, I think the nice thing about like the French Revolution in the show and, you know, getting up to the point that like we get to in the show. And I think it makes sense that it ends here because like, you know, in real life, the revolution starts getting pretty about something else pretty quick is like there's opportunity for a different way to live. You know what I mean? Like you are not hemmed in by whatever social system that exists. Those
things are. you know, constructed, which means they can be deconstructed and turned into something else. It's like a nice, we'll see how it ends. I think despite the fact that it's like a tragedy on the face of it, I think it'll end much more optimistic than you might expect based on what happens like on the screen, if that makes sense. Like, I think the feeling will be optimistic about it. Yes. Yeah, I think so. Yeah. Excited to see how it all ends. It's all... happening
now, it's... This is the longest series we've done all at once. Well, that's not true. We did this so much faster than we did Kimi ni Tadoke. Uh, yes, we were in that one for a while. That's because, I feel like that was just because, like, season three had, like, hour -long episodes, so each one episode was, like, one episode of the show. Or maybe the show just felt more compelling, so it didn't feel like it dragged on. There's
so much stuff happens on this show. This show is like at a, we were talking about how many different arcs happen. It's like breakneck speed all the time. Like we covered two episodes today and it's like, there's just so much shit to talk about. Like I think doing three was the good enough pace because there was like enough stuff to get through. Like there were enough arcs that were like three, like in threes that it worked
out. But yeah, this was a... It's going to be really hard to compare this show to the other ones just because it's so different, like genre -wise. Maybe we need to start making buckets with Shoujo of like... Who can win in a fight? ...so we only compare this against... Which main character is going to win in a fight? Yeah. Uh... I think it's Oscar. Who's going to have the best outfit to prom? Unless it's... Karda. And then it's Chihayab. Um, the best outfit to prom. I
feel like... It would be, uh, Kyoko. She'd be all dolled up for, like, a celebrity. We need to... Oh, yeah. Yeah, she could get the real treatment. Yeah. We need to do... You know how, like, um, in Wreck -It Ralph 2, there's that scene... I haven't seen Wreck -It Ralph 2, but I know there's that scene where, like, all the Disney princesses are together, like, hanging out in, like, a dorm. Imagine that for all the protagonist of the shows that we've seen so far.
That'd be funny. Like, do we think they would get along? Yeah. Oh, we should just start doing this, like, make our own little, like, what's everybody doing in this world? Shoujo. Yeah, the Shoujo realm. Uh, yeah, I think... God. Misaki does not fit in with the... She's such a nothing person. Oh, dude, Misaki would have so much fun showing, like, Oscar or Andre, the, like, the little battle dolls, and they're like, oh, that's cute. That's true. That's really fun. Yeah, I
think they would have fun with that. Uh -huh. That would be so good. Yeah. We need another... We'll get... We'll eventually get to something where like there's a protagonist that does action like Oscar. You think like Chizu and Oscar would like do like tussle a little bit, you know? We like to get little fights. I feel like Ayane, maybe Ayane and Oscar could like... Get together. I think so. You don't think I on it would hang out with Marie. So glamorous. Oh, God. No, because
Marie and now a freaking what's her face? Um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, You know, they'd play cards together. They'd all sit at the card.
Mokko would only do it because she would be using Marie for her own benefit. Oh, yeah. Of course. For sure. She's too ambitious for friendship. Oh, do you think Kyoko would get along with Marie because they're both, like, spiteful? I don't. She'd be like, oh, my ex sucks. And Marie would be like, hell yeah, your ex sucks. No. Let me tell you about my husband who just makes lox all day. That idiot. Well, there is the like the little the the Everyone has a chest and their
heart stick. Oh my gosh. With all the locks. Maria's like, dude, one time my husband made me one of these. It was terrible. It was enormous and heavy. I'm like, why would I want this? Why would you ever think I, the Queen of France, want this big ass hard shaped lock? Oh my God. We're giving. This needs to happen. They need to do this. You know, they need to just, like, make a, like, shoujo verse. Everything's coming together. They all hang out in the little, like,
the little lobby or whatever. Yeah, that's, like, how, like, Toonami and stuff. I feel like they'd have little shorts there if they hang that together. Remember that? We need, like, that. It was Cartoon Network that had, like, the little city or whatever, and they would be like, oh, Johnny Bravo's here, and the Powerpuff Girls are here, and all of it. They had those, like, promos. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's like what if what if Sam or maybe for like here's what's on now and here's what's coming
up. Yeah. Yeah, we need to make that for like all the shows that we watched. We should for sure. And I'll do that for a second year. We're not. God, that sounds like work, but maybe we just dedicate an episode to a bonus episode or something. Yeah, like we just like map it out. Oh, that would be so good, dude. They should let us remake stuff. They should let us put us to church. We make a D &D campaign based off
the show, Joe. Oh, like a tabletop RPG, and it's like you get to play all these different guys. Oh, that'd be so funny. Like a one -shot. I don't know how to do that, but if I did, I would do that. Somebody learn. Oh, my God. That's so funny. Yeah. OK. So yes. Obviously, we're having fun and we will continue to have fun with what we're doing here on Show Joe. Next episode, Oscar dies, probably, and also Maria, I guess. And Andre. Everything's dropping. So. What's what I guess
what lessons do we learn in this episode? The lesson that we learned is that you should rate us five stars on your podcast platform of choice do it right now I know you haven't done it. I know you've been thinking about it and you're like, oh, I'll remember to do it You should do it now. You should put it in there also rate other podcasts You know, I mean if you like pot like just it's easy thing to forget today. No,
it's nice It's nice to give people ratings. It's nice to to spread awareness, to boost them algorithm points. And that's what we need. We need to appeal to the bots. The bots are taking over and we need some favor from them. And only you can provide it, dear listener. So please do that and leave comments. And also you can email us at shojopod at gmail .com if you have things to say to us, like what you think everybody in town would be doing in shojo verse town, in shojotown. Yeah.
I can't think of a better pun than that. I think Shojoverse is a other podcast, so we can't use that. Oh, is that a podcast? I'm pretty sure Shojoverse is a podcast, yeah. Sho... Jo... Jojo. Village. There's gotta be some pun we can do off of this. If you can think of a pun, email us at shojopod .gmail .com. Yeah. Anyway. OK. Yeah. Or if you want to illustrate our little world. What have we learned? What have we learned? What did we learn here? I don't know. This is
your segment. You really run away with it. Really? Let's hear it. Yeah. Probably something about tactics. Probably something about like maybe plan your route. Oscar should have planned the route. Maybe she did, though. This is the thing. I don't know, because I'd be like, oh, Oscar, why didn't you plan your route? But maybe they just got cut off. You know what I'm saying? I know. I was a little disappointed in Oscar. Like, come on, girl. Yeah. You know everything. They
should have just started. They should have just. Well, what? It's hard for me to be critical. They should have gotten off the horses and be an espionage. Those horses are, you know, you can't hide that. Yeah, they should have done the hit and run on that first company and then they should have gone back to the square. The problem is that they stayed off, right? They got they got caught out, you know, as they say. Don't get caught out. This is what we learned.
Don't get caught out of position. Always stay in position. Always stay near your barricades. You know, you got to send the cavalry out, but then you got to have a secure route back. You know, don't let yourself get too far behind enemy lines. Classic cavalry mistake. Don't do it. Yep. What Joe said. Anything better than that? Don't. Oh, God. If you're pretending you're not blind. If you're. Yeah, if you're if you're blind. Just don't say anything. Just wait to hear if
someone says anything. Don't just talk. Because what if someone is listening? Oh man, always check your blind spot. Yeah. Oh man. They never show us what's under - why can't you have a cool scar eye? Why they gotta hide that from us? Listen, Lazare, your last stand charge sounds cool on paper, but it's not gonna get the work done you think it's gonna get done. You should just stay with the group. It was just a waste. Yep. You know, it's a cool scene. Sorry, my guy. But you
know. Oh, no. Oh, Alon's gonna die. No! Alon has to make it. Oh, no. I need Alon to kill a guy with his, like, one sword in hand and sheath in other hand, because that rules. That's the coolest thing that happens in this show. Uh -huh. Yeah. Yeah, I hope. Well, because his sister and mom are gone, so, like, let's see. He's so cool. Yeah. Well. He'll be up there in the character rankings when we get this done. Maybe he gets away with Bernard and Rosalie, you know? It could
happen. Nah, he can't third wheel it. Damn, too bad Rosalie doesn't have like a sister or something, you know? Oh, dang. If only. Nine and more. Yeah. She had two, now she has none. Freaking brutal. All right, all right, folks. Well, yeah. See you next week for the finale finale. Yep. Yeah, as we watch episodes 39 and 40 and it all goes down happening in a blaze of glory. And we'll catch you guys then. Be on the lookout below for our Jurassic Park The Lost World bonus episode.
I got to edit it, but then it'll be out as soon as I edit it. Yep. Yep. No rush, but. But if it's not out by the finale. You don't have to make it until it comes out after Wednesday. Nope, you're good. I can't fire you. I have a good name. Where am I going to fire another Joe? It's a pretty rare name. Alright, okay. Nope. Okay, everyone. Bye. Bye. Thank you.
