Remote Control – EP 36 – Counterpart S1 E4

A few months ago, I started getting these letters.

Who wrote you the letters? If I'm to be harmed,

I need you to reach out to the other Howard.

Are we still together over here? Are we happy?

A woman from the novel world was arrested. An

assassin. They call her Baldwin. She's here illegally,

and I need to find out who sent her. Not my concern.

I'm Bear, the ambassador. I think he might be

working with these people. Aldrich, they'll kill

us all! Leave them. You didn't give them anything,

did you? Your side is compromised. I'm not saying

it's your department, but I'm sure as hell not

saying it's not. Well, fuck. Hey, give me that

remote control. No, I want to watch this. No,

you want to watch that. Come on now. It's episode

36. remote control here on the geek cast radio

network unleash the TV geek in you and check

out myself and DJ Valentine talking more on the

new stars network series counterpart starring

JK Simmons oh my god this series is epic we're

only four episodes in and we love it not to spoil

the rest of the episode but you get the point

folks Hey who threw that remote control at my

head ow Howard let's watch some TV and listen

to some podcasts. You know They say it's so great

to meet yourself Bullshit I Like losing your

virginity, you know your whole life for it and

then 20 seconds later you're disappointed hello

and welcome to remote control this is episode

36 continuing on in our 10 week 10 part coverage

of counterpart the new series from stars one

of the premium channels that most people probably

don't want to pay for i am of course tfg and

mike joining me on this 10 week journey as always

dj valentine from simplistic reviews you wanted

stuff to happen stuff happened okay that's right

for stuff that happened bam in your face things

start happening i know i didn't even like okay

so both sides now is is episode four i didn't

assume that last week when we talked about the

mission the names of the episodes i'm like uh...

okay uh... i didn't think it was gonna happen

this quickly because you know Episode six two

weeks from now Act like you've been here before

I thought that was going to be the thing But

he's still there that's a good thing it wasn't

like a one -off he the look at the result of

this episode is that he's there now and He ain't

out of the woods yet. I mean, I don't watch previews

of the next week. So I have no idea what's to

come But it seems like everything seems to be

going a little too well for him on that side.

Yeah. I think it's going to come and bite him

in the butt. This is my guess of the next episode,

or at least by that episode, act like you've

been here before. Yeah. Absolutely. But a lot

going on here. We almost have Baldwin being assassinated.

So there's that. Again. Again. She's almost died

like six times, but it's OK. Yeah. You know.

Least she got off right before it happened. I

guess right I did call that I get no It's almost

it was just it wasn't like she had feelings for

it was almost like she did it because she needed

to do it to get her in Position to almost get

assassinated the other graphic. I don't know

if they again. I still don't know if they've

said that girls. I think it's Claire Okay Yeah,

but at first it was like the first her first

reaction was I'm not into this but then she's

like, oh wait This is the way I get her and then

she went through with it. But Yeah, Claire's

apparently She's a ball was a liability at this

point. So but man that was one of the best I

mean since not since Punisher Thomas Jane version

have I seen knife through bottom of jaw It's

been 14 years since that happened. Good lord,

2004. But yeah, I mean, this isn't just one of

those, well, that was an episode. Holy shit,

that was an episode is what this is. Right. You've

got Howard Prime smuggling a message to the other

side to his neighbor. great great great uh use

of editing there and uh the way they store storytelling

we're just like how does he communicate to people

on the other side and they show you and it's

really cool yeah i didn't know what show i was

watching at first and i'm like um okay sure this

is you know kind of matrixy a little bit here

um so i think when the old man fell down i was

like wait Something's off. Yeah, really At first

I thought there was something like that was how

you the guy gets close so he can stab him But

then he was like, oh no. No, this is kind of

like a the most cool game of telephone you've

ever seen in your life Absolutely And then I

couldn't I remember that Howard prime has the

dog But when the guy in the apartment closes

the door and locks it and has the dog What's

the deal with it? Oh, right. He has a drug. That's

right. That's rush. I think a guy's name is rush

rush. I don't know. God, I wish it was race.

Some kind of algal, I guess. I don't know. Not

sure. We also learned that Howard, a lot of Howard's

lies are exposed here, one of which I didn't.

I don't think this has been unless I dozed off

somewhere. This is the first time we get the

reveal that Howard has a daughter. Evil Howard,

or Mean Howard, or Bad Howard. Howard Prime.

Well, see, that's the cool thing, folks. As much

as everyone hates Wikipedia, sometimes I like

it for information of episode synopses, and they

list Howard Prime as the Evil Howard, and they

list Howard Alpha as... That's good, Howard.

Prime and Alpha? That's right. Episodes of Transformers?

That's right. You know, pretty soon we're gonna

have a Howardatron, so it'll be an Alpha Trifectatron

thing. I don't know. They'll open the matrix

of leadership and then they'll close the gateway

between both worlds. Yeah, and Mr. Smith will

show up to stop them. See matrix transformers

transformers matrix cooking need love like everything

does it's okay Missing is Morpheus He fights

for us yeah red pill or blue pill But no this

one Wow like last episode like I said last week

I thought It's a little slow on the action pieces

here. There are so many moving parts if you're

not paying attention your head will whip around

and you'll get whiplash without even being in

a car i mean uh and what's what's his what's

howard prime i guess we're calling him now howard

prime's daughter's name i'm afraid i didn't ana

which is and it's essentially the the what Howard

alpha, you know's wife miscarried, which I think

they might have mentioned before I think they

might have mentioned the miscarry before but

I don't remember the there was some sort of memory

or some sort of potential happy picture of Howard

Howard alpha and Emily are good We'll just call

them good and bad Howard like I was just pointing

that out to the point of oh, hey At least Wikipedia

has actually named them. I haven't actually looked

at the full -on, you know counterpart Wikia like

the official I don't like prime because primed

it connotes like he is the true one and then

like like a Spock prime was the Leonard Nimoy

Spock and then you got like, you know the Zachary

Quinto Spock But everybody knows that's like

this the Leonard Nimoy Spock is the original

one or that we've seen so I hear Howard prime

I'm thinking like well if they split at the same

time Neither one is a prime. They're both alpha.

There should be alpha and beta If anything, or

Alpha and Omega. Exactly. God, get out of my

head. But yeah, the whole daughter reveal, I

thought, was really, it caught me off guard.

And I was like, of course. And especially if

they did mention, I got to double check it, if

they did mention that Howard, Good Howard, had

a, wife had a miscarriage before, then. Should

we should have automatically assumed the opposite

of that might have been that Howard bad Howard

had a daughter Yeah, we should have but like

I've said before You know, you can't assume or

guess at anything at this show. I mean you can

try but you can try You can absolutely try but

we're gonna go in a completely different direction

on you. Mm -hmm but yeah like this wow this whole

episode and the whole family dynamic with good

Howard it's like really seriously holy shit and

like him kind of not necessarily fake I guess

you could say faking it but you know the whole

thing with good Howard good Howard and and bad

Emily or whatever I don't know you know like

actually seeing the main Howard that we first

saw in the first episode with his potential wife,

you know, not in the hospital, not, you know,

blah, blah, blah, blah, actually seeing JK and

the, uh, what's her name? Uh, I can't remember

off the top of my head. The actress that plays

Emily, just seeing the two of them act is like,

wow. Olivia Williams. Olivia Williams. Sorry.

Yeah. Um, yeah but just seeing the two of them

act and because they're the two difference of

each other like that's not good howards emily

that's not bad emily's bad howard i don't know

how you want to call it but it's it's it's it's

you put in a situation where like good howard

is flirting with his the opposite emily and it's

almost like Is he cheating? Technically he is,

because it's not the same woman. She has a completely

different life, but she is the same woman. It's

just a cool thing they're playing with there.

And it's probably the first time Good Howard's

gotten to talk to any version of his wife since

the car accident. And again, we're taking how

Good Howard's word, though the narration at the

end of the last episode that... Good Howard's

Emily still loved him, but we're taking Good

Howard's word that everything was great with

their relationship Most of the time where he's

just like, you know, it could have been on the

rocks. We don't know that we I mean though it'd

be the complete I guess has to be the opposite

of what or at least they've been following the

trend that it's usually the opposite of what

it is in the other world So if bad Howard's divorced

from his Emily then good Howard must have a great

relationship with his Emily But I don't know

we again everything is from the point of view

of these two guys But I just when they're sitting

at the dinner table. I'm like, this is the first

time he's probably gotten to talk to his just

talk to her it's any type of anything a tube

up her nose exactly whatever yeah so he's relishing

in that but then there's probably a part of him

like this is not her this is uh this is an echo

essentially of my wife so i i mean and her her

her motivations though they're both spies essentially

yeah uh yeah that was the reveal like Good Emily

was bad Howard's contact on on the main side

or whatever There's so many like the episode

title says both sides now. Hello. There's way

too many It's not just both. It's like hexagonal

octagonal. I don't know So what if what if what

if Emily on the good Howard side is more like

the bad Howard? like he she's like a badass though

the bad bad Emily or sorry Emily on a bad Howard

side seems like she's also like a super spy especially

from the first episode where she's telling people

to fuck off and all this other stuff but is this

I just got the I thought about it after that

I was like maybe a good Howard's wife is kind

of like you know I want to see more see I want

to see a scene with her other than the her getting

hit by a car to see how she acts differently

from You know the other one, but I I want to

say it's not confusing. It's more Just so many

layers to it like man. I want to know how bad

Howard would interact with the Good Howard's

Emily like stuff like that. I just I want to

see Yeah, absolutely I want to see that too like

I know we've only got ten episodes of this show,

but like I want another five seasons of this

at this point I think you'll get them I'm pretty

sure I'm sure like at least at least another

at least another you know a second season stars

is usually good at like I mean they kept Spartacus

on the air even after their main actor passed

away Uh, so, uh, Whitman, uh, the, who played

the lead Carrie played Spartacus and they just

recast the guy and they kept going. So if there's

a, uh, I think this show is going to go as far

as JK Simmons wants to do it. If JK Simmons is

down, they'll do it because they have an Oscar

winning actor on a show who I mean, and I think

This pisses me off that because there's sci -fi

elements of this show it might get overlooked,

but you're getting really good for your JK Simmons

even a nomination from this show, but I just

don't because there Like we've said this before

There are clear differences and it's not over

-the -top differences, but there's just very

Clear yet subtle differences between bad Howard

and good Howard when they're playing cars together

when bad Howard is Kurt, it's different than

when good Howard is Kurt. It's a completely different

situation. So, I mean, he's essentially J .K.

Simmons has made two fully fleshed out characters

who are now interacting with each other that

I can watch that car. That card scene pissed

me off because it was too short. The first half

of the episode could have been that damn card

scene. And that was how we could have been. Yeah.

The sad thing is, I thought they were going to

show, I thought they were going to show them

playing the main game. Oh, the go game. The go

game. Like I really thought. When he was walking

over to the table, I was like, yeah, go, go.

And it's like cars. It's like, eh, yeah. And

I thought about it. It's like, well, bad Howard

wouldn't play go a good, a good Howard play go

bad. Howard would play something like poker.

He, his, his game is, uh, Less strategy more

And poker is different poker is different go

ghost seems like it's just strategy. It's just

you know peace moves poker sometimes relies on

this luck and bad Howard has now Survived through

luck a lot of these times where you know, he's

doing he's putting himself in certain situations,

but God only knows if one of these his plans

get unraveled. He could catch a bullet. He's

even said it I could have died and if they went

after me they'll go after you so So yeah, we

talked about the knife scene with Baldwin and

all of that I'm wondering if she's going to kill

a Claire here her other her female Handler or

whatever like I'm going she's gonna go right

after cuz she knows the gun is gone or she knows

She knows exactly what happened. Oh, yeah, absolutely

so Where is that put Baldwin? Where is Baldwin

even whose side is bald? They have said it really

haven't said what side she's on and who she's

working for like Howard primes side of the world,

but like because she came over to Alpha Howard's

side to potentially kill Emily I guess She could

have been sent she could have been ordered to

kill Emily cuz even when they were having that

interrogation the last episode She's like I didn't

know her so she was just sent by somebody to

kill somebody wanted a good Emily dead So it's

probably whoever Found out that Emily was sending

bad Howard messages. So Baldwin's just a tool

or an instrument So she might just be work. She

might at the end of the day be working with good

Howard to She might be good Howard's ace in the

hole if they he ever has a disagreement with

bad Howard if there's ever like they're butting

heads I Think Baldwin takes good Howard's she's

already saved his life once Yeah, so she's if

he if he needed to and he needed somebody who

can do some things that he can't Baldwin might

be that person now Yeah, absolutely Let's see

what else happened in this episode there's so

much the British guy, Peter Quayle, I keep calling

him Peter Quayle. He just has some great lines,

great interaction with Bad Howard. I love how

good Howard has to try and assimilate into Bad

Howard's world, but Bad Howard takes like five

seconds. It's like, screw this, I'm out. It's

like a personal day, I'm out of here. He did

he took him five seconds before he even gave

a crap and moved on Yeah, there's there's two

lines out of this this episode I'm taking a personal

day thing and you know that and then the ending

Of the episode where he says if you talk to him

again, you know all of that like Wow Even though

that it kind of felt a little Little goofy to

me, but I might have been the intention where

like good hours is strolling around but I think

about that is good Howard has to Don't I think

he's he should be smart enough to realize that

this this is not his world Even though he's he's

good in this world, but the thing that is missing

is his wife Now unless he's now just saying screw

it. I'll take this Emily and live my life then

that I don't think that would be I think good

Howard would know the difference see the difference

and not want you know just just this Emily you

would want his the one that got hit by the car

and that's the one he's leaving behind so him

saying well I was hang out here you know it's

great Seems like mmm. He should be a little bit

more reluctant I think he wants to go back home

so he could be with his actual wife Yeah, I think

he does too But at the same time look at all

the effort and he was not supposed to do any

of this Well the effort he put into quote -unquote

making it a family dinner like he invited the

daughter He did this he did that he cooked he

gave tips on you know leaving the chicken in

the oven So it does whatever it's supposed to

do you know to make it taste even better? And

they're just like, what the fuck are you doing?

You're not my husband. You're not my ex -husband

or whatever. You're not my father. You're not...

Like, they don't know what to do with that, because

all they've known is the bad... What we assume

is the bad Howard. The Howard that has the, you

know, go -fuck -yourself attitude. That wasn't

your fault, you know. You were no part of that.

I know. For a moment, it felt like I was, but

I know. She might go on your side. When my Emily

got pregnant, we went overboard with the clothes

and the room and the registry. We wanted everything

to be perfect. I used to... Lean into her belly

and talk to the baby. Tell her what the world

was like Seems like when I did that she would

kick But she miscarried I'm so sorry We had already

picked out the name Anna Look, I don't I don't

really know how it is between you and him. I

mean I Can guess knowing him a bit But However

bad it is you're both very lucky at all, Howard.

But whatever circumstance made you who you are,

you're better than him. I could stay here tonight,

crash on the couch. But I liked seeing the family

dynamic to see, you're right, if Good Howard

has to make a choice, I don't know. I mean, his

interaction with the daughter and with Emily,

I thought was really good. It's almost like he's

in, there was an episode of, you would know this,

an episode of Justice League, where Superman

gets star row on his face, and now he's living

on Krypton, and he has a kid named... Lana or

he's married to a girl named Lana. He's married

to Lana. He's married to Lana Lang who went to

Krypton. Krypton did not blow up. Lana Van Elle

or whatever. And the son's name is Van Elle.

Van Elle, yeah. Sorrow is like an alien creature

that if it gets on your face it essentially gives

you your fantasy or whatever. There was even

during that, if you want to go the Marvel route,

there was that Hulk versus DVD where Think enchantress

separates Bruce Banner or it maybe was hella.

I can't remember Yeah, it's she separates Bruce

Banner from the Hulk so Hulk rampages to Asgard

while Enchantress might have separated them but

Bruce Banner was in hell and hell is hell and

his version of hell was he's married to Betty

Ross living in a cabin their life is amazing

and The point of both of these stories is I think

at the end of the day Kaleo or Clark or Superman

and Bruce knew that that where they were wasn't

right This might seem I mean in how good Howard's

mind is like, this is great. I got my wife back

I have a daughter the daughter I lost I'm kind

of the big man on campus I'm strolling down the

street and everybody's like hey was up, you know

But this ain't right. This ain't your life, man.

This is that kind of I think after a while, it's

not going to feel right. If he's trying to adapt

and say, I can just stay here, which we're making

an assumption. That's what he wants. But it does

seem like that stroll seem like I'm great. Yeah,

you're right. It's it's very similar to the to

the for the man who has everything episode of

justice. Right. But it is also similar to perchance

to dream. in btis because it's the dream the

mad hatter has batman under this like dream oh

yeah with the card yeah and he's got his parents

and he's got you know this and there is no batcave

dad what are you doing here you know there's

the books they have nothing in them i've gone

to the library there's nothing there's books

with all these empty pages it must be a dream

you know because you can't read in the dream

yeah yeah exactly so it's also similar to to

that as well um yeah i just freaking love this

show i really do Very good. It's very very good.

I cannot I cannot tell a lie every and you wanted

more JK and you got a lot of JK here I still

want to know what and how they film his scenes.

Well, you can tell they're doing split diopter

on some of them, which is essentially they But

when he hands stuff over to him, it's kind of

like the, I mean, it's no Michael Fassbender

playing the flute in the Alien Covenant, but

it's still pretty good where they probably do

a plate of one JK and then they do the scene

again and on the other side. But, uh, it's still

really good. I mean, and it's not like, like,

like I mentioned, the alien covenant flute thing.

It's not like in your face, they're going to

be, it's everything in the show is very subtle.

He sits next to them. They have a conversation.

It's not like, you know, and orphan black had

been doing this for years before. This is not

like breaking the mold over. And black was doing

the subtle stuff and the over the top stuff where

there's five Tatiana Maslany's dancing around

in the same house in the same room. But, uh,

the way they do it on counterpart. This is very

subtle. You don't question it. It's not, you

know blatant You just accept it and now like

there's times where you almost forget always

one freaking guy There's one JK Simmons. There's

not two actors here or twins or whatnot. Okay,

so Apparently it's not just Wikipedia giving

him the prime and the alpha name. It's everything

time to be It is probably I haven't looked there,

but just on the notes on Wikipedia press series

creator Justin Marks is the other Howard is always

referred to as prime and our Our Howard is referred

to Howard alpha or simply just Howard. Mmm IMDB

only has JK Simmons as Howard Zilk IMDB is not

the most uh, what's the word in depth? But like

you know next week is the fifth episode that

essentially means that the first season is halfway

done like I just cannot believe and thankfully

with this series because it's stars and it's

not CW or any AMC or any of that stuff like We've

got episodes all the way up tomorrow from now

February 11th was this episode through March

25th, so this show When we started December 10th

And it's going to March 25th. Wow, that's a dang

But no absolutely Yeah, cuz you asked about the

the the woman with with Baldwin It says here

Claire takes Baldwin's gun and sends an assassin

to dispose of her. So the other females name

is Claire Claire okay well Claire it's good to

know her name now because i think she's not long

for this world or that or any world either one

i think she's not long for either world i should

go back and take a screen cap of you know how

stars oh this is a stars original series and

even on their original all movie channels do

this not just stars but all all their stuff they'll

do the rating and it's like tv ma or whatever

like everything it listed for this episode i'm

like Okay, okay, okay graphic violence, okay

nudity Okay, it was not expecting that but okay

It's like almost every single thing you can think

of to ever put in an R rated or NC 17 or whatever

x -rated movie like it's Game of Thrones is very

good for doing that It's like they have like

every acronym. I'm like, what, what's that acronym?

Oh, wow. I didn't know that even had that. Okay.

You have been warned. This has been rated TV,

M a B P L B S a Y KJ. Exactly. JK. Oh God. It's

so funny. Um, but yeah, uh, I, man, this series,

i'm gonna be disappointed when it ends not not

disappointed disappointing that it's ending not

that of whatever the end is but like Want this

series to run for the rest of the year Give us

episodes 11 to 21 or whatever. Don't be greedy

man Just you got to follow the BBC method where

you get you get six to ten great episodes instead

of 22 and Five of them were like, you know, alright

and the rest of them were filler CW. You got

to get the good BBC Model that's the good model

because I don't like watching filler episodes

and some of these television shows over in America

Over in America you act like you're in the UK

or something right? I am in the UK in my mind,

but no no no I mean like When I watch like watch

stuff like Luther or a broad church or something

like that Nothing is a filler. Everything is

important and when you want I'm watching counterpart.

Everything is important. I don't like Wasting

time here. Here's the gun episode of of counterpart.

No, no, just give me the story. Give me give

me there's no filler. I mean A lot of these shows

that are like stranger things and even even when

you make them short you get more quality quality

over quantity You don't need 23 episodes of a

damn show You know you need 10 great episodes

of a show and you'll be fine. It cost it's cost

-effective. It's quality effective Why are we

killing ourselves by dumping garbage? Don't get

greedy. This is just appreciate it. You're gonna

get 10 quality JK Simmons performances in a row

Yes, you say what you will about flash and arrow

Super bitch and all of that leave legends alone.

I will let you over So here's a difference. Okay

legends knows what it is Okay, let's just like

we're gonna have fun every week If you tell me

that you can have 22 episodes because essentially

every episodes a one -off. It's fine It's like

the old Star Trek original series or original

run. It's fine when you're playing a storyline

That's 22 episodes long. It's like oh my god.

Just kill the guy already Kill him. I mean what

the Ra's al Ghul storyline and an arrow. It should

have been shorter. It shouldn't have a drug drag

Two a two -part episode that should not have

been a whole fucking season I could eat I could

have dumped out ten of those episodes and it

would have been a way better quality season He

didn't need ten of those episodes. They were

just what's gonna happen now. I guess he's gonna

recover You could just dump half of them out.

You'd be fine That's why I like the BBC model

six to ten episodes or three if Sherlock is to

be put in there Three to six to ten episodes

when you just get good quality stuff and counterpart

I think I think most of these pay channel shows

and I guess USA Network and FX They're kind of

get into that model where I think I think Legion

was like 12 episodes. I believe maybe ten 13

episodes of the shield 15 right 16 years ago

now so i think justified was 13 episodes i think

So, and those were great. Yeah, and I mean between

Legends Season 1 and Legends Season 2, I haven't

looked at Season 3 at this point, but I just

looked on Netflix, between the first two seasons

of Legends of Tomorrow, 16 for the first season

and 17 for the second season. Because no one

thought Legends was really going to do anything

after the first, that's why it only had 16 episodes.

They were experimenting with Legends and they

realized, oh wait, this is the show that they

get to have fun. That's why that show lasts and

people like it is because it it this fun. There's

a view that they they they again it's it's really

underappreciated when a show understands what

it is when the show understands what it is and

knows what people like and once they figure that

out they can just keep giving it to you and and

and a little flourish sometimes shows are not

clear on what people like sometimes they think

people like full illicity And then they realize,

oh wait, they don't really like illicit either.

We got to break them up. But they don't like

morose, morose, morose, morose Ali either. So

they're going to give them like half of each.

And then you waste the 10 episodes trying to

figure that out. Just a legend of the legend

of tomorrow. They figured it out. It's like the

third episode. Oh, we're just going to have fun.

We're going to be a doctor who in America essentially

with superheroes. It is a little bit, but I love

when they do like the Camelot 3000 episode and

we're way way off topic. The Chicago way episode.

Oh yeah, Chicago. We're gonna have to talk about

the Julius Caesar episode. Anytime they do those

shows it's great. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. So

counterpart and stars and JK Simmons. Sorry folks.

People tend to do desperate things when they

learn about their other versions. We're gonna

have to talk about this whole TV thing this whole

giant TV topic maybe an episode 40 of the show

It falls into the fact that counterpart is good

big at 10 keep it at 10 Good solid. We've gotten

solid episode of the solid episode. It's a good

model good. Yeah, good model absolutely I have

not seen whatever previews gonna be for the next

episode I I just do not like I'm like I like

going in gold. Yeah, I do too but like Okay,

this is just I don't I assume this is the stars

Network that does this and obviously it probably

is but like when I record the show on my DVR

There's like six ads before the show starts of

every other show that the network shows like

Ash and Evil Dead this that and the other thing

everything else and it's like a minute and a

half to two minutes like really seriously Don't

need that at the beginning. It's fine if it's

at the end after the credits, but Advertising

At least it's not in the middle of the show.

That's the guess that was obviously you're paying

for stars. So no commercials Will Howard get

killed find out after this? After the break after

a message from our local sponsor Yeah, a claymation

dog started sparking at you Absolutely, but counterpart

season one episode for both sides absolutely

love it Can't wait till next week more. Give

me more More and more and more. There's so much

I want to know. I want to know this whole thing

between the two sides now. Where's Richard Schiff?

Bring Richard Schiff back. I want more episodes

with Richard Schiff, too. Yeah, that's true.

They've made a point of telling Good Howard not

to shake hands. Quail told him, don't shake hands

on the other side. They don't do that over there.

And I forgot, this is Germany. Yeah. I keep forgetting

it's Europe. Then like I know it's Europe. I

just forgot it was Germany and that creep did

we ever talk about that creepy ass of commercial

for Disease and they have a poster that good

Howard sees when he comes out with with the kids

playing in the playground And when kids starts

coughing and all the kids back away and put their

put the things over their face No, that is the

creepiest. I'm like what I was watching it like

with my mouth agape like What? But again, they

had a pan, they mentioned it. They had like an

epidemic or whatever. And but the cheeriness

of the episode of the commercial where it's like

these kids playing and then one kid starts coughing

and then all the people in the park, it's like

reverse a vision of body snatchers. back away

from him and then slowly put their masks on it

was it's weird and then when good Howard gets

into the to the other world he sees the big the

the poster of the same family from the video

and it's like don't uh not reporting an illness

as a crime i think it said or something to that

effect yeah yeah yeah man that's a bunch of crap

i just I thought I could download the Stars app,

which I did, but like, like, oh, do you have

your TV service provider? Yeah, I kinda do. Oh,

well it's not listed here. Fuck you, Stars. You

don't like Comcast, Xfinity, what the hell? Damn

it. Anyway. Hello, geeks and geekettes. Looking
