WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.160
Hey, hey, hey, it's Chaos Queen here, and you're

00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:05.780
listening to the Geekcast Radio Network. Hey,

00:00:05.820 --> 00:00:08.320
it's Mistress Carrie, and you are listening to

00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:11.740
Studio 2009. You're not a very good liar. I got

00:00:11.740 --> 00:00:14.400
nothing to hide. I suspected you ten minutes

00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:16.699
after I met you. All right, Lieutenant, you win.

00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:34.520
Murder. Murder. I've been dean of this academy

00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:38.579
for over 20 years, and we have never had a situation

00:00:38.579 --> 00:00:42.200
like this. Believe me, sir, I know you've done

00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:46.100
your best. If a student fails, we consider it

00:00:46.100 --> 00:00:49.000
our failure, not his. To be honest with you,

00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:50.700
I was afraid of something like this. We've had

00:00:50.700 --> 00:00:53.520
a lot of problems with him at home. Then you

00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:56.399
do understand we consider it best that you withdraw

00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:02.340
him? Yes, sir. I'm very sorry, Lieutenant. She

00:01:02.340 --> 00:01:05.040
sits around the house and drools, never moves.

00:01:05.459 --> 00:01:07.719
We love him, but a dog should do something, even

00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:16.739
if he just barks now and then. Yes. Oh, Lieutenant,

00:01:16.980 --> 00:01:35.040
it's for you. Yeah, Columbo. My wife and kids,

00:01:35.099 --> 00:01:36.900
they're visiting my mother -in -law up in Fresno.

00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:38.920
You don't suppose you could keep them for another

00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:44.939
week? I'm sorry. He demoralizes the other students.

00:01:45.219 --> 00:01:46.840
There is nothing wrong with your podcast player.

00:01:46.980 --> 00:01:49.260
Do not attempt to adjust the volume. Hello and

00:01:49.260 --> 00:01:51.780
welcome back into our studio. You are now inside

00:01:51.780 --> 00:01:54.739
Studio 2009 and only on the Geekcast Radio Network.

00:01:54.819 --> 00:01:56.560
I'm, of course, T .F. Joe and Mike. Joining me

00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:59.239
once again is that good old detective Dave Draper.

00:01:59.340 --> 00:02:05.379
Hello, sir. How are you? Oh, hello. Hello? Hello?

00:02:05.900 --> 00:02:10.400
Hello? Wait. Are we doing a bit, or can you not

00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:14.319
hear me? No, I can hear you. We did have problems

00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:17.099
at the beginning, so I'm like... Yes, well, you

00:02:17.099 --> 00:02:21.180
know, that was Discord's issue, not ours. I blame

00:02:21.180 --> 00:02:26.689
the technology. Stupid artificial bullshit. Today

00:02:26.689 --> 00:02:29.129
we are continuing on our journey as we put our

00:02:29.129 --> 00:02:31.669
trench coats back on and jump back in time with

00:02:31.669 --> 00:02:33.990
Columbo. These are the Columbo files here inside

00:02:33.990 --> 00:02:36.870
Studio 2009. As always, starting at the beginning,

00:02:36.990 --> 00:02:41.569
going in order. Also, as always, we watch Columbo

00:02:41.569 --> 00:02:48.129
on 2B .TV or 2BTV. We do now. We do now. Grumble,

00:02:48.129 --> 00:02:51.780
grumble. Grumble, grumble. Today is Season 3,

00:02:51.860 --> 00:02:55.240
Episode 6, and we are training our minds to overcome

00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:58.479
the mayhem. And at the end of the last podcast,

00:02:58.699 --> 00:03:01.240
folks, Dave completely missed my mobile armored

00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:03.960
strike command joke. No, I got it. Okay. I just

00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:10.360
indignify it. Like, there is more to life than

00:03:10.360 --> 00:03:14.560
80s cartoons. I love you, Mike, but there's more

00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:17.120
to life than 80s cartoons. Oh, there's really

00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:20.080
not. No, no, there is. There is so much more.

00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:23.159
Says the guy that has a whole basement filled

00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:29.319
with 80s toys. And 90s and 2000s and 60s. Like,

00:03:29.340 --> 00:03:33.379
dude, my collection spans decades. Uh -huh. I'm

00:03:33.379 --> 00:03:35.060
sitting here looking at a bunch of stuff from

00:03:35.060 --> 00:03:37.080
1993 because my Jurassic Park collection is right

00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:41.460
here. Yep. Absolutely. I'm getting static from

00:03:41.460 --> 00:03:47.020
my Warhammer situation. Why? It might be slightly

00:03:47.020 --> 00:03:50.439
out of control, according to other people. I

00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:54.740
can quit it whenever I want. Uh -oh. Just because

00:03:54.740 --> 00:03:57.819
they released Angron, the World Eater, who's

00:03:57.819 --> 00:04:02.919
the $400 figure in the... Oh, my God. It's gorgeous.

00:04:03.139 --> 00:04:06.000
It's a scale. Like, he's actually huge. Yeah,

00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:07.280
yeah, yeah. That's what I love about Warhammer

00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:10.219
is, like, the scale is 118, but almost every

00:04:10.219 --> 00:04:13.300
character is, like, you know, huge. Yeah. When

00:04:13.300 --> 00:04:15.139
they do a human character, he's tiny. And then

00:04:15.139 --> 00:04:17.579
you do Angron, and he's, like, he's giving He

00:04:17.579 --> 00:04:21.699
-Man a run for his money. Yeah, exactly. Love

00:04:21.699 --> 00:04:28.180
it. So Mind Over Mayhem, episode six of season

00:04:28.180 --> 00:04:32.319
three. No, no, it's fine. My screen went black

00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:34.560
and I don't know where the mute button is. I'm

00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:38.040
so sorry. Uh -oh. I can cut it out. I didn't

00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:42.040
know where that was on Skype. Yeah, unfortunately,

00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:47.019
as of May 5th, 2025, Skype is completely dead.

00:04:48.110 --> 00:04:51.370
We could be doing these on Skype right now. No,

00:04:51.389 --> 00:04:55.269
we can't. It's March. No, we can't. March is

00:04:55.269 --> 00:05:01.290
before May. Have to wean off of teat because

00:05:01.290 --> 00:05:03.569
we will still get used to it. And then when they

00:05:03.569 --> 00:05:07.209
really do take it away from us. I get it. That

00:05:07.209 --> 00:05:12.629
is actually very wise. Yeah, exactly. I still

00:05:12.629 --> 00:05:16.110
have the program on my computer, but I uninstalled

00:05:16.110 --> 00:05:19.810
it off my phone. I removed it from my taskbar

00:05:19.810 --> 00:05:22.170
on my computer, but it is still installed on

00:05:22.170 --> 00:05:27.870
my computer. But I needed to... Uh -uh. Nope.

00:05:28.610 --> 00:05:30.970
You don't have to justify it. I get it. I was

00:05:30.970 --> 00:05:33.490
just saying a thing. Can't have the temptation

00:05:33.490 --> 00:05:36.209
in front of me. For some reason, when we're doing

00:05:36.209 --> 00:05:37.870
this through Discord, my computer goes, okay,

00:05:37.910 --> 00:05:39.529
you're not doing anything. Because it didn't

00:05:39.529 --> 00:05:42.949
do that with Skype. It shuts down, so I had to

00:05:42.949 --> 00:05:44.449
get the whole thing back up again. By then, I'd

00:05:44.449 --> 00:05:45.850
already coughed. Oh, God, now I'm looking at

00:05:45.850 --> 00:05:52.959
these horrible... Discord. They're not that bad.

00:05:53.420 --> 00:05:57.759
They're noxious. Oh, boy. All right. Mind over

00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:02.740
mayhem. Dr. Howard Nicholson, played by Lou Aries?

00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:10.639
What? No. The kid wasn't Jose Ferrer. The dad

00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:12.959
was Jose Ferrer. I didn't say anything about

00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:16.240
Jose Ferrer. I said I was reading the description

00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:22.060
here. I got confused. Yeah. Dr. Howard Nicholson,

00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:26.199
played by Lou Aries, threatens to expose Neil

00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:29.980
Cahill, played by Robert Walker Jr., for plagiarizing

00:06:29.980 --> 00:06:34.699
his paper from recently deceased scientist Neil's

00:06:34.699 --> 00:06:39.439
father. What? There was a comma there, because

00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:41.699
the deceased scientist was not Neil's father.

00:06:42.189 --> 00:06:46.170
Yes, Neal's father, Dr. Marshall Cahill, played

00:06:46.170 --> 00:06:51.050
by Jose Ferrer, director of high -tech Pentagon

00:06:51.050 --> 00:06:57.569
think tank, kills Neal Ferrer to protect his

00:06:57.569 --> 00:07:04.829
son's reputation. Oh, boy. This feels very Bobby

00:07:04.829 --> 00:07:09.970
Fischer to me. Okay. And I know Bobby Fischer

00:07:09.970 --> 00:07:14.500
happened way after this. I think. I think it

00:07:14.500 --> 00:07:15.720
did. I'm surprised you didn't say that in the

00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:21.199
chess episode. Okay, but the robot, because the

00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:23.680
robot is doing stuff in this episode, that's

00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:28.720
why specifically. Oh, playing against Deep Blue?

00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:34.420
Yeah. Your references are hurting my brain. Yes.

00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:40.000
The whole thing is that the kid, I don't remember

00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:42.319
anybody's name. And I remember Jose Ferrer because

00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:46.339
he's Mel Ferrer's dad. But the dad is a brilliant

00:07:46.339 --> 00:07:48.680
scientist who works at this think tank, and they

00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:51.860
plot out World War III on a daily basis. Sounds

00:07:51.860 --> 00:07:56.480
like fun. And his son is not as smart, and he

00:07:56.480 --> 00:07:58.560
was working with this other scientist who came

00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:00.660
up with this brilliant theory but then never

00:08:00.660 --> 00:08:02.680
published it and died shortly thereafter. So

00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:06.339
the son plagiarizes the theory and gets Scientist

00:08:06.339 --> 00:08:10.699
of the Year Award or something like that. And

00:08:10.699 --> 00:08:12.480
then it turns out that he's seeing a therapist

00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:15.019
who's kind of an attractive young woman or attractive

00:08:15.019 --> 00:08:18.300
woman who is married to another scientist at

00:08:18.300 --> 00:08:22.480
the facility who's played by the guy whose name

00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:26.519
I didn't recognize and got confused. And so she

00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:29.660
tells her husband about the plagiarism, which

00:08:29.660 --> 00:08:34.039
actually is a violation of confidentiality. We

00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:36.659
won't worry about that. And he confronts the

00:08:36.659 --> 00:08:39.629
dad. He says, your son did not earn that award.

00:08:39.789 --> 00:08:43.269
He plagiarized it and I looked into it. So the

00:08:43.269 --> 00:08:46.809
dad comes up with a scheme to kill the older

00:08:46.809 --> 00:08:52.350
guy because the doctor can't testify. She can't

00:08:52.350 --> 00:08:55.049
testify against her client. Because of doctor

00:08:55.049 --> 00:08:57.710
-patient confidentiality. Yeah, that's got some

00:08:57.710 --> 00:09:01.309
weird loopholes and boundaries. It's complicated.

00:09:01.529 --> 00:09:04.740
But point being... So at the Institute, because

00:09:04.740 --> 00:09:07.480
even though they war game World War III, there's

00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:12.940
other stuff they do. There's a kid genius named

00:09:12.940 --> 00:09:18.759
Steven Spielberg. That was so stupid. Steven

00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:20.580
Spielberg, but they pronounce it like weird.

00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:24.600
Yeah, it was so stupid. Who basically has pre

00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:26.960
-created, because Forbidden Planet, of course,

00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:30.059
takes place in the future, Robbie the Robot during

00:09:30.059 --> 00:09:32.889
his Davros phase. Because he doesn't have legs.

00:09:32.909 --> 00:09:34.649
He's rolling around on a little wheelchair thing.

00:09:35.169 --> 00:09:39.629
It's Robbie the freaking robot. Yep. And Robbie

00:09:39.629 --> 00:09:43.309
can do whatever the kid programs him to do. And

00:09:43.309 --> 00:09:47.970
the father, Jose Ferrer, also knows how to program

00:09:47.970 --> 00:09:53.710
the robot. He programs the... Okay. He programs

00:09:53.710 --> 00:09:57.669
the robot to run the war game simulation that

00:09:57.669 --> 00:10:00.830
Jose Ferrer is supposed to be running at night.

00:10:01.629 --> 00:10:04.090
And he goes out and he hits the scientist guy

00:10:04.090 --> 00:10:08.250
with his car, kills him, and carries him back

00:10:08.250 --> 00:10:11.809
into the house. Make it look like a, I don't

00:10:11.809 --> 00:10:15.629
know, a hit and run inside the house? Well, yeah,

00:10:15.769 --> 00:10:17.950
that was the weird part. This part I got fuzzy

00:10:17.950 --> 00:10:19.429
on. I must not have been paying attention. Yeah,

00:10:19.429 --> 00:10:23.389
that was the weird part. It was like he ran him

00:10:23.389 --> 00:10:28.049
down, put him back in the house. This whole episode

00:10:28.049 --> 00:10:30.950
was strange. You want to talk about a criminal

00:10:30.950 --> 00:10:33.470
who really want to get caught. This is a guy

00:10:33.470 --> 00:10:38.029
who wanted to get caught because like everything

00:10:38.029 --> 00:10:43.409
he did seem to be the, in the book, I'm going

00:10:43.409 --> 00:10:45.990
to be a criminal for nominees kind of, but like,

00:10:45.990 --> 00:10:48.289
you know, how to be a criminal. I mean, to be

00:10:48.289 --> 00:10:52.549
fair, he's not a criminal. He's a, okay. He is,

00:10:52.570 --> 00:10:54.250
but like, that's, that's not his profession.

00:10:54.669 --> 00:10:57.720
Like, right. But I'm saying like, He does all

00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:00.179
this. You know, we talked about in the last episode

00:11:00.179 --> 00:11:08.039
how the Jack Cassidy of Greenleaf. Yeah, he basically

00:11:08.039 --> 00:11:12.059
dares him to. Yeah, exactly. And everything else.

00:11:12.080 --> 00:11:16.759
Where this guy is like, huh, I'm going to do

00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:20.399
all this stuff. I'm going to. remember to do

00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:22.159
this, but I'm going to forget to do this. I'm

00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:23.820
going to remember to check this, but I'm going

00:11:23.820 --> 00:11:27.139
to... He completely leaves the car with the front

00:11:27.139 --> 00:11:31.580
end damage from hitting the guy. He does a thing

00:11:31.580 --> 00:11:35.059
later where he backs into that car. He uses another

00:11:35.059 --> 00:11:37.059
car from the Institute, so he does a thing later

00:11:37.059 --> 00:11:39.419
where he pulls out his car and backs into it.

00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:49.320
He works for that. Yeah, I don't know. And to

00:11:49.320 --> 00:11:52.320
be fair, he did not anticipate that Columbo would

00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:54.200
ever find out about Spellberg and the robot.

00:11:54.580 --> 00:11:57.120
Because they weren't in any way related per se

00:11:57.120 --> 00:12:03.779
to the crime. I don't remember how Columbo ends

00:12:03.779 --> 00:12:06.019
up with the kid. Columbo ends up with the kid

00:12:06.019 --> 00:12:08.980
because he goes in and he has a question for

00:12:08.980 --> 00:12:13.799
the kid. He wants to... Because part of the alibi

00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:16.100
or part of the situation is that he gets this

00:12:16.100 --> 00:12:18.559
other guy to lead the Institute who's the mechanic,

00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:21.700
which is how he gets access to the cars. The

00:12:21.700 --> 00:12:23.480
mechanic to lead for the night because he takes

00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:26.080
Stephen, who's a kid, to the movies because Stephen

00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:27.360
never gets to go to the movies because he's a

00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:31.679
genius kid who nobody treats like a kid. So that

00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:32.840
was the whole thing is he wanted to establish

00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:37.519
the alibi of the mechanic, the pool guy, carpool

00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:40.850
guy. And then Steven mentions that he's got a

00:12:40.850 --> 00:12:42.929
robot. He doesn't actually mention it's a robot

00:12:42.929 --> 00:12:45.429
until it comes out and almost murders Columbo,

00:12:45.490 --> 00:12:47.669
but it does almost murder that dog. I got real

00:12:47.669 --> 00:12:50.950
uncomfortable. There's a funny thing about Columbo's

00:12:50.950 --> 00:12:55.669
dog needs attention and affection. He leaves

00:12:55.669 --> 00:12:57.909
the dog with the kid and the robot is walking

00:12:57.909 --> 00:13:04.610
the dog, but the leash is too short. You're lucky

00:13:04.610 --> 00:13:09.159
PETA wasn't a thing back then. And I'm sorry

00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:15.419
to say this, but that dog, oh my god. Again,

00:13:15.620 --> 00:13:17.120
tell me you've never owned a basset hound without

00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:18.679
telling me you've never owned a basset hound.

00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:24.299
Those things are needy. I understand. My aunt

00:13:24.299 --> 00:13:27.919
and uncle and cousins had a bunch of basset hounds,

00:13:27.980 --> 00:13:33.720
and I know they are needy, but man, the... barking

00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:37.139
on that dog in this episode when he was in the

00:13:37.139 --> 00:13:59.000
car. I'm just going to be right here. I'm going

00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:01.740
to talk to this man for a little while. Excuse

00:14:01.740 --> 00:14:06.539
me. Can you help me? Can you help me? I'm only

00:14:06.539 --> 00:14:08.639
allowed to work on Institute cars. Oh, I don't

00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:10.539
want you to work on my car. She's running beautiful.

00:14:10.720 --> 00:14:16.440
I'm Lieutenant Colombo. I'm from the LAPD. Oh,

00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:18.980
you investigating the Nicholson murder? Did you

00:14:18.980 --> 00:14:21.460
know Professor Nicholson? Just to say hello to.

00:14:21.539 --> 00:14:24.480
He kept pretty much to himself. Are you in charge

00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:27.639
of all these cars here? Yeah, we're testing them.

00:14:27.860 --> 00:14:29.740
They've all been converted to natural gas as

00:14:29.740 --> 00:14:32.350
part of an environmental experiment. Does everybody

00:14:32.350 --> 00:14:34.809
at the Institute drive these cars? Yeah, that's

00:14:34.809 --> 00:14:42.409
right. I'm not going anywhere. Uh, what happened

00:14:42.409 --> 00:14:45.269
to this one? Oh, just a little front end damage.

00:14:45.490 --> 00:14:49.110
I rolled out the dents. Give me a break, would

00:14:49.110 --> 00:14:57.649
you please? Boy, that talks. There were people

00:14:57.649 --> 00:15:00.250
and they weren't talking to him. What got me

00:15:00.250 --> 00:15:03.129
was he wasn't house -trained after a year. Because

00:15:03.129 --> 00:15:05.950
this is season three, and he got in the first

00:15:05.950 --> 00:15:09.970
episode of season two. Yeah, exactly. I know

00:15:09.970 --> 00:15:12.929
you're a homicide detective, Columbo. I know

00:15:12.929 --> 00:15:14.870
you don't have a lot of time to do stuff, but

00:15:14.870 --> 00:15:17.490
come on. We've already established that he's

00:15:17.490 --> 00:15:20.889
got at least one kid and a wife. They could step

00:15:20.889 --> 00:15:26.389
up. Taking the dog out to pee isn't a male responsibility,

00:15:26.450 --> 00:15:31.549
even back in the day. Yeah, I know. And to be

00:15:31.549 --> 00:15:37.570
fair, assets are allegedly very difficult to

00:15:37.570 --> 00:15:41.570
house train. I think that very quickly. Supposedly,

00:15:41.570 --> 00:15:42.970
they're one of the breeds that's very difficult

00:15:42.970 --> 00:15:48.789
to house train. A year? Columbo's part of the

00:15:48.789 --> 00:15:56.549
episode opens with him at a school. And the headmaster's

00:15:56.549 --> 00:15:59.909
telling them, we're going to have to expel them.

00:16:00.190 --> 00:16:02.149
They're not learning. And you think his kid's

00:16:02.149 --> 00:16:03.690
getting kicked out of school. And, of course,

00:16:03.710 --> 00:16:07.629
it turns out to be the dog. It's the dog. Favorite

00:16:07.629 --> 00:16:11.549
line. I'm sorry, but the favorite line is, his

00:16:11.549 --> 00:16:14.730
dog is demoralizing the other students. Demoralizing

00:16:14.730 --> 00:16:22.500
the others. Great line. Oh, damn dog. This is

00:16:22.500 --> 00:16:24.220
the one where Columbo says at the end, I knew

00:16:24.220 --> 00:16:28.240
it was you within the first three minutes. The

00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.039
whole thing is the murder victim had a pipe which

00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:33.059
got crushed by the car. And he had a pipe for

00:16:33.059 --> 00:16:36.679
every day. It's one of those weird things. I

00:16:36.679 --> 00:16:38.759
haven't known a lot of people who smoke pipes,

00:16:38.840 --> 00:16:40.259
but I don't remember them having a pipe for every

00:16:40.259 --> 00:16:44.720
day. And then the wife doesn't smoke. And whoever

00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:47.360
had killed him had lit up a cigar. So he was

00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:48.799
looking for a cigar smoker. Because you could

00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:51.139
tell by the match. When you light up a cigar,

00:16:51.240 --> 00:16:53.240
you use the match for much longer than you do

00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:58.059
for a cigarette. Yep, yep, yep. Absolutely. Oh,

00:16:59.279 --> 00:17:02.759
yeah. Oh, no. We can't talk about the Cubans.

00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:06.299
Oh, no. You can't. It's illegal. To this day,

00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:10.000
Cuban cigars are illegal, I believe. Yep. Absolutely.

00:17:11.819 --> 00:17:18.009
And when he offers them to Columbo, Is it one

00:17:18.009 --> 00:17:22.670
or two in there? Is it just one? I know Columbo

00:17:22.670 --> 00:17:26.549
just takes one, but it looks like there's more.

00:17:26.930 --> 00:17:29.190
I think he just offers one. And then at the end,

00:17:29.269 --> 00:17:35.750
Columbo gives it back to him. Yep. Yep. Absolutely.

00:17:37.849 --> 00:17:45.029
This one was... This one had a lot of misdirection

00:17:45.029 --> 00:17:51.079
in it, I would say. Even though, and this is

00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:54.220
one that actually has Columbo's, I think this

00:17:54.220 --> 00:18:01.579
has him saying it isn't, it wasn't who did it.

00:18:01.680 --> 00:18:07.700
It's how he did it. Yeah. Which is usually what

00:18:07.700 --> 00:18:11.980
we say. It's not, you know, like it's a how.

00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:18.240
He said the quiet part out loud. Yeah. This is

00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:20.220
the one where he's using his tape recorder in

00:18:20.220 --> 00:18:22.660
this instead of his notepad. I mean, he's using

00:18:22.660 --> 00:18:24.819
his notepad, too, but he's losing his notepad

00:18:24.819 --> 00:18:27.000
half the time. He always loses his notepad. He

00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:30.059
always loses his pencil. Yeah. This thing is

00:18:30.059 --> 00:18:33.480
combo. So I thought it was cool that he was using

00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:35.319
a tape recorder. I thought that was interesting.

00:18:37.380 --> 00:18:44.940
What's his name? Not Nicholson. The young guy.

00:18:45.930 --> 00:18:51.230
The kids, not the... The son? Yes, what's the

00:18:51.230 --> 00:18:53.450
son's name? I have no idea, I just call him the

00:18:53.450 --> 00:18:57.210
son. Yeah, the young guy with the hair, with

00:18:57.210 --> 00:19:00.890
the tall, whatever. Yeah, the son. Yeah, the

00:19:00.890 --> 00:19:09.089
plagiarist. Like, kind of reminds me of the other

00:19:09.089 --> 00:19:16.059
guy. The guy that lost it on the tram. Scotty

00:19:16.059 --> 00:19:21.119
McDowell? Yeah, a little bit. Not because of

00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:23.980
how he sounds or how he looks or anything, but

00:19:23.980 --> 00:19:28.200
just how he acts. Like, it wasn't me. I didn't

00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:30.740
do it. Why are you framing me? Like, just that

00:19:30.740 --> 00:19:34.259
kind of character. Okay, I've been waiting to

00:19:34.259 --> 00:19:36.500
get to that part because this one is interesting

00:19:36.500 --> 00:19:41.480
because at the end, Columbo literally forces

00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:45.849
a confession out of the dad. He admits he frames

00:19:45.849 --> 00:19:49.930
the son for the murder. Yes, he does, yes. And

00:19:49.930 --> 00:19:51.549
the son gets dragged off in chains, but you're

00:19:51.549 --> 00:19:53.190
always like, well, you ever see him get arrested

00:19:53.190 --> 00:19:54.650
and dragged off in chains? He gets dragged off,

00:19:54.769 --> 00:19:58.269
and the father actually hesitates for a minute.

00:19:59.430 --> 00:20:01.470
He's actually thinking about, do I let my son

00:20:01.470 --> 00:20:04.789
go down, or do I, you know? He does eventually

00:20:04.789 --> 00:20:12.009
very quickly confess. Yes. which has a great

00:20:12.009 --> 00:20:15.549
line, you're a strange man, I didn't know how

00:20:15.549 --> 00:20:19.509
it was going to go. How do you feel about that?

00:20:21.210 --> 00:20:28.250
I've seen it done this way in plenty of police

00:20:28.250 --> 00:20:34.150
procedurals in the future. What I mean by that

00:20:34.150 --> 00:20:39.809
is 1980 forward kind of thing where plots have

00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:45.839
done this thing of let's, you know, try to scam

00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:49.119
the actual criminal. I've seen them put pressure

00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:52.740
on another person. I've seen them arrest another

00:20:52.740 --> 00:20:57.660
person. Or maybe I have. I don't... Yeah, I've

00:20:57.660 --> 00:21:01.779
seen them... It's to put pressure on the person

00:21:01.779 --> 00:21:05.400
that they really want to arrest. It's like...

00:21:05.579 --> 00:21:08.079
okay, so if you're not going to confess, then

00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.619
we have evidence that implicates your son, so

00:21:11.619 --> 00:21:16.900
we are going to arrest him. And blah, blah, blah.

00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:19.779
The whole thing is like, oh, it's not even about

00:21:19.779 --> 00:21:21.839
the plagiarism. You were having an affair with

00:21:21.839 --> 00:21:24.799
the other guy's wife. Here is this hotel manager,

00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:28.940
and that is all bull crap. Yep, it's all bull

00:21:28.940 --> 00:21:38.359
crap. So, again, We're in 2025 and this was 1974.

00:21:39.299 --> 00:21:44.259
Right. Morals have changed. Yes. Particularly

00:21:44.259 --> 00:21:47.160
when it comes to police and how they're supposed

00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:54.660
to operate. Yes. Yes, they have. I think an audience

00:21:54.660 --> 00:21:59.400
in 74 would have been less bothered. Particularly

00:21:59.400 --> 00:22:01.160
by the fact that he brought out a fake witness.

00:22:01.930 --> 00:22:05.529
To just completely concoct a lie. Because it

00:22:05.529 --> 00:22:08.930
would never have held up in court. No, and that's

00:22:08.930 --> 00:22:12.670
not... But see, here's the thing why with me,

00:22:12.829 --> 00:22:17.470
it didn't bother me because it's not supposed

00:22:17.470 --> 00:22:21.430
to. It's not... The fact that they brought out

00:22:21.430 --> 00:22:26.049
a fake... It's essentially a full lie to the...

00:22:26.049 --> 00:22:34.039
What's it? What's his stupid name? Yeah. To Cahill.

00:22:34.259 --> 00:22:38.640
It's Cahill Sr. To the father, it's a full lie

00:22:38.640 --> 00:22:44.680
to him. It is a full on charade for him to eventually

00:22:44.680 --> 00:22:50.980
confess. It's putting his son in danger of being

00:22:50.980 --> 00:22:53.640
arrested for a crime that the son didn't commit,

00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:56.740
that the father committed. The police arrested.

00:22:57.819 --> 00:23:01.059
Yeah, okay, yes, but Columbo literally says,

00:23:01.319 --> 00:23:03.440
well, we'll get him out after the confession,

00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:05.500
we'll get him out within an hour. Within an hour!

00:23:05.880 --> 00:23:10.940
Yeah, exactly. But it's one of those things where

00:23:10.940 --> 00:23:17.380
I've heard stories from actual police officers

00:23:17.380 --> 00:23:21.579
that say there is nothing against a police officer

00:23:21.579 --> 00:23:27.579
lying to a suspect. I've heard that too. There's

00:23:27.579 --> 00:23:30.759
nothing against the rules of the police department

00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:34.200
saying that a police officer cannot lie to a

00:23:34.200 --> 00:23:37.039
suspect to get a confession. This was a little

00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:41.119
overboard on that. I agree with that. But this

00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:49.019
is fiction. Yeah, but it's extreme. Posey mysteries.

00:23:49.900 --> 00:23:54.109
But you've got police malfeasance. And it's not

00:23:54.109 --> 00:23:56.589
just any cop doing it. It's not like Jerry Orbach

00:23:56.589 --> 00:23:59.529
in Law and Order, originally established as being

00:23:59.529 --> 00:24:03.509
a little bit shady. It's Columbo. It's lovable

00:24:03.509 --> 00:24:09.710
Columbo arresting and booking the wrong guy on

00:24:09.710 --> 00:24:12.789
faked evidence. I mean, it's one thing, yeah,

00:24:12.849 --> 00:24:14.470
if you're in the, like, because one of my favorite

00:24:14.470 --> 00:24:17.750
TV shows is Homicide. And there's a fantastic

00:24:17.750 --> 00:24:21.309
episode where, like, a documentarian is filming

00:24:21.309 --> 00:24:24.559
everybody. And Andre Brauer gives this great

00:24:24.559 --> 00:24:27.380
speech about how the box is his place and all

00:24:27.380 --> 00:24:30.140
the stuff that he can do whatever he wants in

00:24:30.140 --> 00:24:33.299
the box. He'll sell you something you don't need,

00:24:33.380 --> 00:24:35.359
which is a lifetime in prison. And yeah, okay,

00:24:35.539 --> 00:24:37.099
if you're in the box and you're telling him,

00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:39.599
okay, this guy, if you've got two suspects and

00:24:39.599 --> 00:24:41.740
you go in the box and you say, this guy talked,

00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:45.440
he ragged you out. Okay, yeah, you're lying.

00:24:46.990 --> 00:24:50.589
You arrest a guy and take him downtown and it'll

00:24:50.589 --> 00:24:53.569
be an hour before he's a free man again. Based

00:24:53.569 --> 00:24:57.509
on... It's not just your lying. You've hired

00:24:57.509 --> 00:25:04.009
a guy. You brought in a guy to lie. Like... I

00:25:04.009 --> 00:25:07.430
don't know. I am uncomfortable with my beloved

00:25:07.430 --> 00:25:10.849
goofy trench coat wearing Basset Hound love in...

00:25:10.849 --> 00:25:16.440
I... It's a little too far in the gray area for

00:25:16.440 --> 00:25:21.920
me. Because it's Columbo. Not because it's a

00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:25.079
policeman. Right, right, right. But because it

00:25:25.079 --> 00:25:28.740
is Columbo. Because it is Columbo, yeah. Han

00:25:28.740 --> 00:25:32.940
shooting Greedo under the table, I can accept.

00:25:33.180 --> 00:25:36.960
Because obviously, even though the threat was

00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:40.019
legit and imminent, Greedo says, I'm going to

00:25:40.019 --> 00:25:43.279
kill you. And you don't need to have him shoot.

00:25:43.789 --> 00:25:47.069
It's clear that Greedo's... But if Han just walked

00:25:47.069 --> 00:25:48.549
up to a guy in the middle of nowhere and shot

00:25:48.549 --> 00:25:50.430
him in the back of the head, that would be a

00:25:50.430 --> 00:25:57.089
different vibe. I think... Maybe it's that I

00:25:57.089 --> 00:25:59.750
have different rules for different characters

00:25:59.750 --> 00:26:03.230
in different situations, but it bothers me a

00:26:03.230 --> 00:26:09.589
little that he did that. I think it doesn't bother

00:26:09.589 --> 00:26:16.309
me because of the way that He had to catch this

00:26:16.309 --> 00:26:20.329
criminal. And like he said, even though an hour

00:26:20.329 --> 00:26:23.710
is a long time, but he is going to do the right

00:26:23.710 --> 00:26:25.690
thing. He is going to release the son because

00:26:25.690 --> 00:26:28.589
he, he already knew that the son didn't do it.

00:26:28.849 --> 00:26:32.809
Obviously it was just, you, it's kind of like

00:26:32.809 --> 00:26:38.609
how you have to. Like breaking a few eggs. Is

00:26:38.609 --> 00:26:41.210
that what you're saying? No, I didn't want to

00:26:41.210 --> 00:26:45.220
say that, but. Yeah, a little bit. But other

00:26:45.220 --> 00:26:50.220
shows will do the thing of. But my point is there

00:26:50.220 --> 00:26:51.880
are other shows, there are other characters.

00:26:51.940 --> 00:26:55.460
Like I said, Barry Orbach in On Order is sketchy.

00:26:55.779 --> 00:26:58.079
Like the very first episode, he's sketchy, and

00:26:58.079 --> 00:26:59.539
then they never went back to that. I understand

00:26:59.539 --> 00:27:05.240
that. But Columbo had to be this sketchy for

00:27:05.240 --> 00:27:08.539
this character. Do I think he is this sketchy

00:27:08.539 --> 00:27:11.759
going forward? No. Do I think he's still the

00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:14.240
lovable detective that we know and love? Absolutely.

00:27:14.380 --> 00:27:19.660
I don't think this one case has changed him completely.

00:27:20.700 --> 00:27:26.160
Like, it's not an end -all be -all for me for

00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:33.359
this. I think because of the way that the way

00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:40.539
the criminal was, how he had to do it to catch

00:27:40.539 --> 00:27:46.980
him. You couldn't just put this guy in a room

00:27:46.980 --> 00:27:49.380
and have him sweated out. You had to threaten

00:27:49.380 --> 00:27:55.220
him with putting his son in jail. I get what

00:27:55.220 --> 00:27:56.960
you're saying. To me, it's more like, but he

00:27:56.960 --> 00:28:01.180
didn't threaten. The threat went a little further

00:28:01.180 --> 00:28:04.920
than I'm comfortable with. If he'd been having

00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:07.960
a conversation with the dad and said, your son

00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:10.359
was probably having an affair. I talked to a

00:28:10.359 --> 00:28:14.759
guy at the hotel. We're going to arrest him.

00:28:15.380 --> 00:28:18.900
Then the dad says, okay, I can't take that risk.

00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:23.019
That's one thing. Have cops haul him off? Again,

00:28:23.730 --> 00:28:26.990
It's not necessarily the hour itself intrinsically

00:28:26.990 --> 00:28:28.609
that I have an issue with. It's the fact that

00:28:28.609 --> 00:28:30.950
that implies that he was booked. He was put in

00:28:30.950 --> 00:28:34.490
jail. He went through the system based on a lie.

00:28:35.509 --> 00:28:42.150
That was a little too far, in my opinion. But

00:28:42.150 --> 00:28:46.009
I think when Columbo says that he'll be released

00:28:46.009 --> 00:28:49.470
within the hour, I think that also means that...

00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:52.279
all charges will be dropped or all charges will

00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:55.599
be erased. Oh, yeah. I would assume. I would

00:28:55.599 --> 00:29:01.220
hope. And again, like, you know, the dad probably,

00:29:01.400 --> 00:29:05.140
honestly, if the dad was a little smarter for

00:29:05.140 --> 00:29:08.440
being a genius, he would have known that his

00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:10.019
son, well, first of all, he knows for a fact

00:29:10.019 --> 00:29:12.819
his son didn't do it. I think he might have believed

00:29:12.819 --> 00:29:15.039
the affair thing, actually, even though that

00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:17.400
would probably fabricate it, too. But it's just

00:29:17.400 --> 00:29:19.789
like, Well, he says, I can't take the risk. You're

00:29:19.789 --> 00:29:25.990
a strange man. Look, man. I like Dirty Harry

00:29:25.990 --> 00:29:29.470
as much as the next guy. But Columbo's not Dirty

00:29:29.470 --> 00:29:32.329
Harry. I get it. Columbo's not Dirty Harry. I

00:29:32.329 --> 00:29:36.670
understand. I don't want Jessica Fletcher planting

00:29:36.670 --> 00:29:40.150
evidence to catch the bad guys. I mean, I get

00:29:40.150 --> 00:29:44.269
a little twitchy. And yeah, I think this is the

00:29:44.269 --> 00:29:45.829
only time in the whole run that something like

00:29:45.829 --> 00:29:48.230
this happens. So, you know. It is what it is.

00:29:48.609 --> 00:29:50.910
And he even mentions, like, there's an earlier

00:29:50.910 --> 00:29:53.049
line about the robot that you can't sweat him

00:29:53.049 --> 00:29:54.529
out under the lights, you can't take him behind

00:29:54.529 --> 00:29:56.549
in the back room and beat him with a rubber hose.

00:29:57.150 --> 00:30:03.230
I mean, the police behavior was... Things were

00:30:03.230 --> 00:30:06.250
more acceptable in the 70s than they are now.

00:30:06.809 --> 00:30:12.269
Yeah. Yeah, it's crazy, folks. It's just so crazy.

00:30:15.769 --> 00:30:18.460
It... It really, really is. It's just one of

00:30:18.460 --> 00:30:23.700
those things. Anything else on this episode,

00:30:23.900 --> 00:30:28.539
Mind Over Mayhem? I think this one we almost

00:30:28.539 --> 00:30:31.000
got a full one more thing, sir, one more thing,

00:30:31.079 --> 00:30:34.759
but it wasn't quite that. Yeah, it wasn't quite

00:30:34.759 --> 00:30:38.299
that. It was a prototypical one. Yep. What are

00:30:38.299 --> 00:30:42.079
you going to rate this one? I mean, there's a

00:30:42.079 --> 00:30:44.480
lot of fun stuff for me, like Robbie the Robot

00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:46.759
and a random character named Steven Spielberg.

00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:49.799
And the dog's in it a lot. I'm going to give

00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:52.660
it a 3 .5, because the more I focus on the ending,

00:30:52.740 --> 00:30:55.099
the more it bothers me. It's a good episode.

00:30:55.319 --> 00:30:58.119
There's a lot of fun stuff. I like how he figured

00:30:58.119 --> 00:31:02.640
it out. I just don't like how he got to get the

00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:06.079
confession at the end. Okay. Yeah, I'm right

00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:09.680
there with you. 3 .5. So, absolutely, absolutely.

00:31:10.380 --> 00:31:12.640
Uh, folks, before we send it to a quick podcast

00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:14.400
ad break, the one thing I did want to mention,

00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:17.559
I meant to mention it in the season three, episode

00:31:17.559 --> 00:31:21.079
five episode, our sister podcast, the cinema

00:31:21.079 --> 00:31:26.000

00:31:39.130 --> 00:31:40.910

A match made in a galaxy near you. What's up,

seconds to tell you all about my show. Good thing

00:37:10.889 --> 00:37:13.030
I've got a catchy theme song to do most of the

00:37:13.030 --> 00:37:35.800
work for me. I also talk about the Transformers

00:37:35.800 --> 00:37:38.260

00:37:40.860 --> 00:37:43.719
their stories and give terrific advice about

pursuing your creative interests, and I encourage

00:37:46.320 --> 00:37:49.579

We talk TV. We talk. Hello, Julie, what the heck

00:40:26.019 --> 00:40:28.059
are you doing? Trying to make our spot sound

00:40:28.059 --> 00:40:31.079
more exciting by adding explosions. Yeah, I'm

00:40:31.079 --> 00:40:32.420
pretty sure you could have got the point across

00:40:32.420 --> 00:40:35.019
with sound effects, not the real thing. Car,

00:40:35.099 --> 00:40:39.340
car. Download the show on iTunes or at simplisticreviews

00:40:39.340 --> 00:40:42.460
.blogspot .com. I'm sure your insurance company

00:40:42.460 --> 00:40:44.820
will cover that. No, they won't. No, they probably

00:40:44.820 --> 00:40:54.380
won't. What are you going to do, Julie? I gotta

00:40:54.380 --> 00:40:57.960
talk to my wife. When a case gets too tough,

00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:00.820
I gotta talk to my wife. Is she a policewoman?

00:41:01.099 --> 00:41:04.059
No. Actually, she doesn't talk about the case.

00:41:04.099 --> 00:41:05.780
She talks about everything else. It takes my

00:41:05.780 --> 00:41:08.780
mind off it. Oh, so you're fresh when you come

00:41:08.780 --> 00:41:13.719
back. Something like that. Are you coming back?

00:41:15.780 --> 00:41:19.719
Alright, folks, we are back here inside Studio

00:41:19.719 --> 00:41:24.480
2009, episode 175. The one thing I didn't bring

00:41:24.480 --> 00:41:27.940
up, which I absolutely love, he doesn't look

00:41:27.940 --> 00:41:30.420
like a police dog. He isn't. He's a policeman's

00:41:30.420 --> 00:41:33.840
dog. There's a difference. There is a difference.

00:41:34.280 --> 00:41:37.519
Absolutely. Anything you'd like to say before

00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:42.199
I run through the closing, sir? No, it's a good

00:41:42.199 --> 00:41:45.420
episode. It's a fun episode. I would love the

00:41:45.420 --> 00:41:47.519
backstory of why Robbie the Robot doesn't have

00:41:47.519 --> 00:41:52.820
legs. But other than that, I'm good. I'm not

00:41:52.820 --> 00:42:00.179
sure I want to know. That's just weird. Maybe

00:42:00.179 --> 00:42:03.320
they cost too much. Who knows? He had legs in

00:42:03.320 --> 00:42:07.619
Gremlins. He had legs in Gremlins? I don't know

00:42:07.619 --> 00:42:12.460
if he did or not. I know he's in Gremlins. You

00:42:12.460 --> 00:42:14.079
know who Robbie the Robot is. Please don't make

00:42:14.079 --> 00:42:15.719
me explain who he is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah,

00:42:15.739 --> 00:42:16.539
yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:42:16.539 --> 00:42:16.619
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah,

00:42:16.619 --> 00:42:16.840
yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah,

00:42:16.840 --> 00:42:19.280

I will be discussing Season 3, Episode 7 of Columbo.

It's gotta be a swan song. For now, I am TF2

00:43:46.039 --> 00:43:49.219
and Mike with Dave Draper. You'll hear us back

00:43:49.219 --> 00:43:56.579
in the studio soon. Excuse me. Just one more

00:43:56.579 --> 00:44:00.010
thing. Dude, I would this is the only thing I

00:44:00.010 --> 00:44:03.329
would be more excited to do than a fucking Columbo.

00:44:03.809 --> 00:44:07.130
I love this show. You know, there's a, there's

00:44:07.130 --> 00:44:10.090
an episode with a, what's his name? Robin Williams.

00:44:11.150 --> 00:44:14.489
Oh, really? Yeah. Cool. He's friends with Barry.

00:44:14.510 --> 00:44:18.730
Barry Levinson was a producer. I can't remember.

00:44:19.829 --> 00:44:28.849
No more. We have to stop. Yeah, I mean, I'm down.

00:44:29.090 --> 00:44:32.429
It's fine. This thing got eclipsed because, like,

00:44:32.449 --> 00:44:34.050
then they went on, the same people went on when

00:44:34.050 --> 00:44:37.050
they did Oz, and then they did The Wire, which

00:44:37.050 --> 00:44:39.409
everybody remembers. They're like, yeah, this

00:44:39.409 --> 00:44:46.030
is, hell yeah. One of the things you need. We're

00:44:46.030 --> 00:44:58.090
closed. Where's the wedding ring? You got to

00:44:58.090 --> 00:45:00.170
check with the cops. Well, it was a gold wedding

00:45:00.170 --> 00:45:02.210
ring. It looked like this. We had to make together.

00:45:03.010 --> 00:45:05.030
All personal effects and clothes of the victim

00:45:05.030 --> 00:45:08.469
were taken. No one told me this. You should have

00:45:08.469 --> 00:45:13.130
been told. No one tells me anything. They don't

00:45:13.130 --> 00:45:39.510
tell me anything. Where's your ring? My wife's

00:45:39.510 --> 00:45:41.730
wedding ring. Oh, a personal car. He was taking

00:45:41.730 --> 00:45:46.190
his evidence. Her ring is safe. Oh. Now, who

00:45:46.190 --> 00:45:49.309
gave you permission to take her clothes? She's

00:45:49.309 --> 00:45:51.210
lying down there in that damn room with no clothes.

00:45:52.530 --> 00:45:56.269
You don't know Catherine. She's very unpopular,

00:45:56.389 --> 00:45:59.949
and she wasn't very much at ease with her body.

00:46:00.190 --> 00:46:01.849
I don't understand how you feel. You know, you've

00:46:01.849 --> 00:46:03.510
got her lying down there in that damn morgue.

00:46:03.840 --> 00:46:06.719
In a plastic bag with no clothes. Now, I want

00:46:06.719 --> 00:46:08.820
her out of the plastic bag. I want her clothes

00:46:08.820 --> 00:46:10.699
back. And I want you to have someone there to

00:46:10.699 --> 00:46:13.599
protect her. You keep leaving it there alone.

00:46:13.739 --> 00:46:15.360
Excuse me, Mr. Ellison. Who I first heard of

00:46:15.360 --> 00:46:20.739
once my little ass was Edo. Was he... He's Giardello's

00:46:20.739 --> 00:46:25.340
son. Very cool, very cool. God damn it. Got me

00:46:25.340 --> 00:46:30.710
all excited again, you fucker. What? We're going

00:46:30.710 --> 00:46:33.590
to do it. I just have to buy the thing. Yeah,

00:46:33.590 --> 00:46:37.510
but I'm excited now. Sorry. I got something to

00:46:37.510 --> 00:46:40.510
live for, you fuck. You have no idea. You lose

00:46:40.510 --> 00:46:45.210
the fuck out of me. This is one of my top favorite

00:46:45.210 --> 00:46:48.929
TV shows of all time. I've never had anyone to

00:46:48.929 --> 00:46:52.769
talk to about it. Hey, cool. I think trying to

00:46:52.769 --> 00:46:57.670
talk to Jason about homicide goes over. Unless

00:46:57.670 --> 00:47:00.269
you're going to tell him. At least you're going

00:47:00.269 --> 00:47:03.769
to tell him how you're going to kill him. Now,

00:47:03.869 --> 00:47:06.849
was there another Gordon Pratt in your class?

00:47:09.309 --> 00:47:12.570
You flunked math? You never got a diploma? Yeah,

00:47:12.690 --> 00:47:15.869
this is funny. You never even graduated. I had

00:47:15.869 --> 00:47:22.329
nothing left to learn. What's this? It's Greek

00:47:22.329 --> 00:47:24.650
to me. It is. It's in the original Greek. Is

00:47:24.650 --> 00:47:26.750
that right? Yeah. Read me something out of this.

00:47:29.199 --> 00:47:31.559
You wouldn't understand it anyway. No, just a

00:47:31.559 --> 00:47:33.940
small passage. I've never heard the lovely original

00:47:33.940 --> 00:47:40.940
Greek spoken before. I might hear it. You can't,

00:47:40.940 --> 00:47:49.420
can you? Would you like me to translate? Roughly,

00:47:49.420 --> 00:47:52.699
he's talking about how the individual is corrupted

00:47:52.699 --> 00:47:58.139
by his company. Let me show you what the Jesuits

00:47:58.139 --> 00:48:05.360
taught me. What I say is right or just means

00:48:05.360 --> 00:48:08.480
nothing but what is of interest to the stronger

00:48:08.480 --> 00:48:19.900
party. You're a fake. You're a fake. You shot

00:48:19.900 --> 00:48:24.480
those cops, then you're good. I'm just going

00:48:24.480 --> 00:48:30.329
to put that there. We are going to... What are

00:48:30.329 --> 00:48:34.289
we going to do? Figure out where they put that,

00:48:34.429 --> 00:48:37.329
because I don't like that. I hate how when you

00:48:37.329 --> 00:48:39.550
go to add something that you're looking to buy

00:48:39.550 --> 00:48:42.750
on Google Chrome now, oh, we're going to add

00:48:42.750 --> 00:48:45.730
it to your shopping list. Don't make a separate

00:48:45.730 --> 00:48:48.929
shopping list tab for me. That's not what I want

00:48:48.929 --> 00:48:51.250
in my favorites. Let me do it the way I want

00:48:51.250 --> 00:48:55.650
to do it. We're being helpful. No, you're really

00:48:55.650 --> 00:48:59.739
not. You humans don't know what's good for you.

00:48:59.840 --> 00:49:05.260
Trust Google. Obey Google. Love Google. Obedience

00:49:05.260 --> 00:49:05.719
is love.
