The RE8 Timeline: Mia and Miranda

As mentioned in my post on Donna Beneviento, the other RE8 timeline question that’s been eating at me is just how long Miranda has been posing as Mia before Chris busts in on her.

It’s fascinating how many obscure clues you can find about the days leading up to the start of the game – and if that doesn’t grab you, I’ve also got some lovely fridge-horror-logic to share about why a bunch of jars of baby food and a note about Rose’s recent half-birthday may be some of the most subtly sinister details in the game.

To reiterate again up front, I really doubt there are any definitive, ‘canonical’ answers here. The whole game is a campy, fairy-tale fever dream, and if anyone had a clear timeline in mind, lord knows if the rest of the team were on the same page. Details from in-game documents may contradict cutscene dialogue, may contradict environmental clues, etc. But analysing all those clues still turns up some interesting details, so here we go.

To begin with, in the game’s opening scenes, we learn several significant things about “Mia”:

She’s ‘gone local’ (using local recipes, reading a ‘local fairy tale’ to Rose, etc)

She doesn’t want to talk about what happened in Louisianna (RE7)

She makes most of Rose’s food by hand

She and Ethan have been fighting

Something is very wrong with her

That last point is mostly a vibe, but it is strong. The idea that creepy ‘local’ tale is suitable bedtime reading is suspicious, and her tone of voice when she insists ‘there’s nothing wrong with my memory!’ is bizarrely defensive. Something is off.

All of this makes perfect sense in retrospect, knowing this is Miranda-posing-as-Mia. She’s doesn’t want to talk about the past, because what she "doesn’t remember" could give her away. She’s "gone local" because she is local. She makes baby-food by hand because she’s an overbearing mother from the early 1900s. And she and Ethan have been fighting because she’s a stranger masquerading as his wife.

Now, some of these things may be true of the real Mia as well, if to a lesser degree – there was already tension between Ethan and Mia, the Baker Incident Report talks about Mia learning local recipes, etc. And that does makes sense, if Ethan didn’t immediately notice the change – but we’ll come back to that stuff later.

Mostly what I want to point to is one detail you can find in the house that seems innocent out of context, but was a big oh shit moment for me with all that weirdness leading up.

Oh fuck, what has not!Mia been feeding Rose???

This is also the detail that convinced me ‘Mia’ hasn’t been Mia for some time. Because if Mia’s been making all the baby food for Rose since she started solids (presumably in the last couple of months), why would they be buying these jars at all? Which suggests it’s a recent change to her behaviour, that Ethan hasn’t quite adjusted to yet when he goes out for groceries ‒ we're probably talking at least a couple of weeks, maybe longer. And given that Mia isn't Mia anymore, every recent change to her behaviour becomes pretty suspect. (I mean, you can totally come up with other explanations where it’s some kind of nervous-new-parents-over-buying thing, or a ‘just in case Mia needs a break’-emergency supply that never actually gets used, but c’mon, this is horror: lemme have the freaky version!)

After all, we just heard a dark fairy tale in which a demonic bat and a monster fish ‘helpfully’ feed a little girl parts of their own bodies. Feeding people gross, corrupted food was a major horror element of the Baker family from RE7 too. Heck, there’s even arguably other canonical suggestions that ‘local food’ sourced around the village can enhance the powers of a mould-infected individual, given how food the Duke can make for Ethan boosts his stats (which is definitely me thinking too hard about a shallow game-mechanic, but shut up, this all works on so many levels!)

The opening also features one scene with real!Mia: the flashback/dream sequence Ethan experiences before waking up next to the crashed van. We know this is the real Mia, because she’s anxious about Rose and Ethan in a way that makes no sense for Miranda – in particular about something Ethan won’t face about himself (Ethan accuses her of keeping things from him, tells her they should talk about it, then blows off the conversation for a call from work).

It’s not clear how long ago this was – or even that it’s necessarily a real memory. It could just be a dream Ethan’s having, mixing up multiple different memories and some of his own anxieties (most of what happens in Donna’s basement could be taken the same way). But if it is a memory, the other key plot point is that Ethan receives a phone call about Rose’s test results. Put a pin in that one for later too.

There’s one more relevant detail that comes up when Chris finds the real Mia in Miranda’s lab, where she says she was captured and used in experiments. This is the kind of line it’s best not to get too carried away with, since it’s mostly here to explain why Miranda would have kept Mia alive at all. But if she’s had time for experiments, that does suggest Miranda’s had time to sneak back and forth between Ethan’s house and the village while posing as Mia, which does change the picture a little. I mean, you could say those experiments were performed by one of the four lords or some other assistant, of course, but it’s not the most obvious interpretation.

How Chris discovered Miranda was posing as Mia isn’t clearly explained (and is probably the kind of question you're not supposed to ask), though it’s vaguely hinted in dialogue that his team figured out her plan through 'recon'. Possibly, they had Miranda under surveillance, though it can’t have been very thorough – they obviously didn’t witness Mia’s abduction, for one, or they’d have known she might still be alive.

Then again, if Miranda has been sneaking back and forth from the village while posing as Mia, that might give Chris’ team more chances to spot her doing it and follow her back to the Winters’. Or maybe they’re not good enough to tail Miranda, and found out her plan from a third party, or one of those remarkably convenient diaries that RE characters are forever leaving lying around. Lots of possibilities, no real answers.

A few firmer details about Miranda’s movements come from the diary of Eugen, a peasant in the village. From this and other assorted documents, we can put together a partial timeline of events surrounding Mia’s kidnapping. The list below doesn’t cover every recent date mentioned in the game, just those I caught that looked significant.

February 2: Rose’s half-birthday (she was born on August 2, 2020).

February 3: Miranda requests Eugen find her a list of ‘drugs and tools’ in the next few days (that she presumably needs for her plans for Rose).

February 6: Ethan mentions a fight with Mia (or ‘Mia’) at the hospital in his diary.

February 8: Chris Redfield kills ‘Mia’ and kidnaps Rose and Ethan.

February 9: Eugen is instructed to deliver the tools to Miranda’s ceremony at dawn, where she divides Rose into four pieces. Ethan wakes up outside the village, and the main events of the game take place.

February 10: Miranda's ceremony to revive Rose/Eva takes place at dawn. Final boss battle and ending.

This timeline can’t give us an exact date for Mia’s kidnapping, but we do know from Eugen, that there was ‘no sign of Mother Miranda’ on the 8th (a hint she was off impersonating Mia), but she was in the village on the 3rd of February, about a week before the game begins. He also sacrificed two goats to Miranda on the 1st, but doesn’t specify whether she was personally present.

Now, it’s possible Miranda snuck back to visit the village on the 3rd while posing as Mia, but the more obvious read is that this is before Mia was taken. Either way, it’s safe to assume Miranda’s plans are well underway.

That’s about all the game gives us explicitly, but there are a few other clues.

The note in Ethan’s diary from the 6th about arguing with Mia ‘at the hospital’ provides no context for why he was at the hospital, but in the dream/flashback, we see him making an appointment to collect Rose’s test results ‘next Thursday’. Significantly, those test results can be found in a nearby drawer, signed ‘Applefeld Memorial Hospital’. So that much all adds up: the 6th was Thursday,* they were at the hospital to pick up Rose's test results. When Ethan refers to having “another” fight with Mia in his diary for the 6th, the argument from the flashback could well be the specific previous incident he’s thinking of.

This all matters, because we can be pretty confident the Mia from the flashback was the real thing: Mia can only have been replaced after that call took place. So when was that?

Rose’s test results are undated in the file text, but if you look closely at the in-game asset (screencap above), you might make out the date 28/1/2021. It’s not totally clear whether this is the date the tests were conducted, or the date the report was returned to the doctor. But it does make good sense for Rose to have been due for a check-up, as there are photos and notes about her ‘half-birthday’ on the 2nd Feb, making her just on 6 months old.

From this, we can make a decent guess when the flashback happened. The appointment is made for ‘next week’ and ‘next Thursday’ in dialogue, so the call must have been somewhere between Jan 26 (Mon) and Feb 2 (Sun) the previous week. And if the results themselves are dated to Jan 28, then the call can’t have come through before then, so that gives us between Jan 28 (Wed) and Feb 2 (Sun). Since the doctor says she's 'just received' Rose's test results on the phone, that date on the report (Jan 28) may well be the date of the call.

Either way, Miranda logically can’t have replaced Mia before the 28th – eleven days before the events of the game begin. (Still with me?)

There’s another, more sinister reason why Rose’s check-up might be significant: the BSAA was involved. The text of the report specifies “Results for additional fungal pathogen tests will be provided by BSAA.” The in-game image of the report has a “BSAA Europe Medical Division” logo as its header. And the end of the game contains a lot of hints that the BSAA is no longer to be trusted, and that Miranda may well have contacts in the organisation. So it’s disturbingly plausible that the results of the check-up were deliberately leaked to Miranda – maybe even results of those additional ‘fungal pathogen tests’ too, long before anything ever made it back to Ethan. Perhaps those 6-month-test-results were even the reason Miranda takes an interest in Rose.

All that said, there’s also good reason to suppose Miranda’s had her eye on Rose for much longer than a mere week or two – the fact the Winters were moved to Romania at all could suggest she’s been pulling strings there for some time. So maybe these latest tests only confirmed what she already suspected for a long time.

Either way, it’s very possible that leaked info from Rose’s 6-month-medical-check-up was a key inciting incident behind the events of the game. Happy half-birthday, Rose!

Lord knows how much of all that subtext was even intentional, but if it was, that is some subtle shit, and I applaud it.

But getting back to the point, let’s just expand that timeline a little.

January 28 (Tuesday): Date on Rose’s medical report. Earliest date that Mother Miranda could have replaced Mia.

January 28-February 2: Ethan receives a call from the hospital, making an appointment to come pick up his daughter’s test results on the 6th (Thursday). He and Mia have the argument from the flashback scene.

February 2 (Sunday): Rose’s half-birthday (she was born on August 2, 2020).

February 3 (Monday): Miranda requests Eugen find her a list of ‘drugs and tools’ in the next few days (that she presumably needs for her plans for Rose).

February 6 (Thursday): Ethan and Mia (or possibly Miranda-as-Mia) visit the hospital to pick up Rose’s medical report. They have the fight mentioned in Ethan’s diary.

February 8 (Saturday): Chris Redfield “kills” Miranda-as-Mia and kidnaps Rose and Ethan. Miranda revives, overturns the truck carrying Ethan and Rose, and abducts Rose.

February 9 (Sunday): Eugen is instructed to deliver the tools to Miranda’s ceremony at dawn, where she divides Rose into four pieces. Ethan wakes up outside the village, and the main events of the game take place.

February 10 (Monday): Final boss battle and ending.

There’s plenty of wiggle room in this timeline for other interpretations, but what little info the game gives us mostly seems to add up to this sequence. The 28th remains a plausible earliest date for Mia’s replacement, meaning she’s been posing as Mia for no more than 11 days at the very most. If we take it from Eugen’s diary that Miranda was still in the village on the 3rd, then we’re looking at less than one week.

And that’s just a little disappointing to me, because it doesn’t give a lot of time for stuff like, oh, you know, for all those jars of baby food to build up, while Miranda cooks baby Rose the kind of specially formulated diet that would make Marguerite Baker proud.

See, whatever timeline the in-game dates may suggest, I still like the idea of a Miranda who’s been playing a much longer con: pulling strings to get the Winters moved closer to her, and spending time impersonating Mia, rather than simply absconding with Rose at the first opportunity. That gives her time to make sure Rose is the vessel she needs and prepare for her ceremony before bringing the wrath of Chris Redfield down on her head (and that of anyone else who might take offense at Rose’s abduction).

It gives her time, moreover, to play at being Rose’s mother, while already working to mould Rose into her own daughter. She’ll eat what Eva ate, hear the bedtime stories Eva heard, be cradled in the loving arms of the same mother who mourned Eva’s death.

To that end, imagine a Miranda who may have befriended Mia long before replacing her, using one or more shapeshifted guises to learn more about her and her family, preparing to impersonate her believably. Maybe Miranda’s even the one who taught Mia some of those ‘local recipes’ – recipes she'll go on cooking after taking her place.

The game doesn’t dwell on the horror from Mia’s POV, and that’s a shame, because damn: being abducted and imprisoned, subjected to god-knows-what kind of experimentation – knowing all the while that you won’t be missed, because the monster who abducted you is now living in your home, wearing your face and sleeping beside your husband, who won't even know you’re gone? That is some A-grade shit.

For which matter, how do we know Mia was the only one Miranda was experimenting on? What if one of the reasons Ethan wants to talk about the Bakers at the start of the game is that he’s been having this horrific series of “nightmares” where he wakes up back in the dark, restrained and helpless, while a ‘possessed’ Mia leans over him with a grin and a scalpel? (We know his body would heal any evidence away, and we know Miranda was sourcing drugs – and why would she need drugs to crystalise and divide Rose?)

Basically, I’m 100% here for a Miranda who’s been insinuating herself into the Winters’ lives for at least the maximum nominal period the timeline backs up. It makes so much narrative sense, and the horror possibilities are wonderful.

But this is all just circling around the more character-significant question: how much of the tension in Ethan and Mia’s marriage was really thanks to Miranda, and how much was there to begin with?

The short answer is always going to be that it’s down to interpretation. The “Mia” who argued with Ethan at the hospital may or may not have been the real thing: nothing definitive points one way or the other. There’s definitely evidence things were tense pre-Miranda, given their interactions in the flashback scene. But there's also some evidence those arguments have taken a different character since Mia was replaced.

Miranda’s “Mia” is snidely dismissive of Ethan’s desire to talk about the past, claiming she just wants to put it all behind them. The real Mia from the flashback is anxious and depressed: tired of going back over past trauma, but at the same time frustrated with the aspects they don’t talk about (ie. Ethan). The Mia we hear worrying on the radio in Donna’s basement seems to suffer from a lot of the same anxieties. In the flashback, it’s Ethan being dismissive, insisting “Rose is fine, everything’s fine, what else matters?”

To argue about character inconsistencies here is to miss the point: they’re both worried about what their past means for Rose, and it’s all bubbling over now Rose is due for her 6-month tests. Given all that underlying tension and the weight of past trauma, it’s not unbelievable for the two of them have effectively been taking turns to be the one-who-worries and the one-who-brushes-those-worries-off. Sometimes, that's just how mutual anxieties work in a relationship bubble.

But the jump from the Mia of the flashback to the Mia of the Ethan’s diary – who blows up at the mere mention of events of three years ago – seems unlikely as the same Mia who was so anxious in that flashback, and so clearly still wants to talk about something they haven’t addressed. It’s hardly impossible Mia-from-the-hospital could be the real Mia (Ethan’s summary is very brief, and days have passed in between), but she makes far more sense to me as Miranda’s Mia, who quickly gets defensive when Ethan broaches the subject at all.

In summary: no, Miranda is not the only reason things have been tense between Ethan and Mia lately. But I doubt the argument "Mia" has with Ethan at the opening of the game is all that representative of what things have really been like between them. And the real issues are a lot more nuanced than the generic Mia-told-lies-and-is-mean take, but that’s really a subject for another post.

It’s only fair to admit here that one of the reasons I like the idea of Miranda replacing Mia earlier is because I’d like to be able to blame her for more of the problems Ethan and “Mia” have been having, because I like them both as characters, and I like them together. But then again, if you’re in the opposite camp, maybe you like the implications of the idea that things are already so awkward in the Winters household that Ethan could even go weeks without even realising Mia had been replaced by an imposter – it’s really all in the spin.

Because at the end of the day, the implications for Ethan and Mia’s relationship aren’t the point. There's just so much potential for atmosphere and twisted horror storytelling that comes with a scenario where Miranda has kept up her ruse for much longer than the nominal timeline suggests.

11 days? Oh, Mother Miranda is just getting started.

*Just to confuse things a little, the actual 6th February 2021 was a Saturday, not a Thursday, but the writers probably didn't bother to check: this is Resident Evil, not Lord of the Rings or something.

Note

hey so because you seem to be really into it at the moment: I've never seen any of the chunky/child's play movies what's the lore

okay so the sparknotes version of the child's play lore:

this is still gonna be pretty long, sorry

child's play (1988): serial killer charles lee ray aka the "lakeshore strangler" (played by brad dourif) is shot and killed by police detective mike norris (played by the inimitable chris sarandon) but before he dies he transfers his soul into a good guy doll. btw good guy dolls in the story are similar to my buddy dolls or cabbage patch kids in the 80s and they move a little bit and have some pre-recorded phrases they can say, they're super popular in-universe, it's kind of a commentary on consumerism and how companies market to children to "create future consumers" etc. so, the doll makes its way to the home of andy barclay on his 6th birthday. chucky's main goal is to get revenge on mike and his old partner eddie who drove off without him during the shootout, but he's happy to kill some other people along the way. he pushes andy's babysitter (his mother's best friend) out the window, leaving andy to be the main suspect in her murder, which the detective is brought in to investigate. ofc nobody believes the doll is actually alive and he's taken into children's psychiatric care. then his mother and the detective realize the doll really is alive and possessed by charles lee ray, who they found out was super into voodoo. meanwhile chucky realizes after getting shot by the detective that he can get hurt in his new body and he goes to the man who taught him about voodoo, who tried to kill him for being an abomination and abusing everything he was taught. chucky kills him but not before learning that he will be trapped in that body forever if he doesn't jump bodies again soon but he has to possess the body of the first person he revealed he was alive to, which was andy. so the mom and detective also go to the teacher and with his dying breath he says to aim for chucky's heart to kill him because it was almost human now. cue big showdown between chucky and the three protagonists. there's a couple false endings where he gets set on fire and decapitated but finally he gets shot in the heart and dies. unfortunately the protagonists (+ another cop who witnesses the killer doll) realize that nobody will ever believe what happened. which is where...........

child's play 2 (1990): ...........picks up. the police deny everything but andy's mother corroborates his story and is placed in under psychiatric care while he is placed in foster care. the company that makes good guy dolls is threatened by all the rumors about what happened, including the possibility that there was something defective about the doll or someone tampering with it, so they rebuild the doll to show that there was nothing wrong with it and they were not culpable for what happened. so that's how chucky comes back. not only does he want revenge, he still wants to get out of the doll body, and he can only possess andy. meanwhile, when andy goes to live with a new family, the wife is very caring and the husband is very suspicious and callous towards him. he meets kyle, a 17 year old girl who is also a foster kid. he also meets tommy, a good guy doll left by a former foster kid who stayed in his new room, and to prove that he is a well adjusted, normal kid no longer believing the chucky story, he pretends to play with it and keep it around. of course chucky destroys the doll and buries it in the backyard and replaces him and starts killing people again. andy is sent away again, leaving kyle to discover that chucky is real by herself. they end up being lead to the good guy doll factory for the final showdown, which is really quite a fun ending sequence. again there are a couple false endings but eventually kyle kills him by exploding him with an air hose. andy and kyle leave together wondering where they can go next. something interesting to note is that there is also a novelization of this movie that adds some backstory to charles lee ray, which has been completely overwritten by the canon established in the tv series. also the film features actress grace zabriskie (who you may know from twin peaks) as a character named grace poole (a name borrowed from jane eyre by charlotte brontë) which is a fun little easter egg to me. apparently there was also controversy around this film since it was known to be a favorite of the man who committed the port arthur massacre although there is no connection between the content of this film and the crime

child's play 3 (1991): there's an eight year time skip (if that doesn't make sense to you based on the release dates, you would be correct - production of this movie began before they even finished filming the last one). the company that makes good guy dolls decide it's been long enough since the murders happened to start making those dolls again. unfortunately chucky's remains were still in the factory, and they contaminate the first doll that was made, bringing him back to life. again, he wants revenge and a new body so he immediately tracks down andy. meanwhile, andy is now 16, played by a different actor obviously, and he's enrolled in military school after bouncing around different foster homes for a few years. so chucky sends himself in the mail to andy, only to get intercepted by a younger kid, tyler. since chucky technically is in a new body, he realizes he can tell tyler his secret (that he is charles lee ray - this is a deviation from the first movie, where the secret was that he, as the doll, was actually alive, but this new meaning of what the secret is is used for the rest of the series) and possess him instead, which is what he tries to do. murders occur, andy tries to stop them, nobody believes him, etc. there's a very underdeveloped love interest story arc also. the most memorable part of the film is when the school has a paintball "war" and chucky replaces the fake ammo with real bullets. eventually andy, tyler, and the girlfriend face off with chucky in the haunted house of a carnival that happened to be nearby (yeah, it's contrived lol) and chucky gets pushed into an industrial fan, which destroys him. so, this movie is widely regarded as one of the weakest in the series and i agree, it's pretty boring. the writer don mancini has said that there was pressure from the studio to rush production and he was basically out of ideas so soon after making child's play 2 and i think that is very clear. however i would say that this is the movie that paves the way for the humor and personality that is the foundation of the future chucky movies. there was also a lot of controversy around this movie in connection with the murder of james bulger, a toddler who was kidnapped, tortured, and killed by two 10 year old boys (the youngest convicted murderers in modern british history) although there is no real link or even confirmation that either boy watched the film. also, another notable horror actor andrew robinson who played the dad in hellraiser was featured in this film

bride of chucky (1998): released the same year in which child's play 3 was set, this movie takes place a few months after the events of the previous film. after this film, the series drops the "child's play" name and uses the naming convention "x of chucky" for the remainder of the films. bride revitalized the series, taking it in a more overtly humorous direction. it's also the first film in which andy is not the protagonist and establishes a LOT of the pre-doll possession charles lee ray lore - so let's get into it. enter tiffany valentine (a role made iconic by jennifer tilly), charles lee ray's girlfriend before he died. she finally tracks him down after 10 years, stitches him back together, and brings him back to life with voodoo magic. she tells him that she found the ring he left on the mantel and knew he was going to propose to her before he died, and he laughs at her, telling her that he got it off one of his victims and was gonna pawn it. obviously she's pissed so she locks him in a cage with a talking bride doll similar to a good guy doll. he breaks out, kills tiffany, and traps her soul in the bride doll so that she's stuck with him. unfortunately this is a stupid fucking idea because neither of them want to be trapped as dolls forever but to switch bodies they have to get an amulet called the heart of damballa, which chucky was wearing the night of his death, out of his grave in hackensack, new jersey (but wait! you might be thinking, i thought he could only possess the body of the first person he told his secret to! which is why he kept going after andy in the first place! yeah forget all that, there's an amulet now. idk. btw damballa is the god that gives chucky his power via voodoo magic, it wasn't really relevant until now so i didn't tell you but this is consistent in all of the movies and the tv series). so tiffany gets her neighbor jesse to drive the dolls to hackensack. the reason that jesse agrees to do this is because he and his girlfriend jade are being kept apart by her asshole cop uncle who is her legal guardian and keeps threatening to ruin both of their lives if they keep seeing each other, so they want to leave town together and need money to start a new life. this works out great for chucky and tiffany because they'll each have a body to possess once they get the amulet. so jesse and jade go on this weird roadtrip, then everybody around them starts dying and they're the main suspects in their murders. both of them start to be suspicious that the other one is guilty. meanwhile chucky and tiffany are killing people and falling back in love with each other. eventually they reveal that they are alive to jesse and jade, who, while being held hostage, turn them against each other. they make it to the cemetery in hackensack, but at that point tiffany is so pissed at chucky and feels sympathetic to jesse and jade's love story, so she tries to kill him instead (saying, "we belong dead," a line from the movie bride of frankenstein (1935) which she was watching right before her death). chucky kills her and then is killed by jade. the very last scare is tiffany giving birth to a little evil doll baby. which sets the scene for.........

seed of chucky (2004): for the record i think this movie sucks. it's easily my least favorite in the series. i didn't even get through the whole thing the first time i tried to watch it. however, it also has some of the best lore of the series, which is pretty fun, and it has some queer themes that are interesting to see. so obviously chucky and tiffany have an orphaned freaky little doll monster baby. they end up being kidnapped (?) by a cheating ventriloquist who keeps them in a cage and calls them "shitface" and makes them perform in their ventriloquist act. at the same time, the chucky and tiffany dolls are being used in a movie based on the "urban legend" of the killer dolls. shitface realizes they must be their parents because they share the same "made in japan" mark on their wrist as the chucky doll which they see on a promo on tv, so they to hollywood to find them. when they get there, they accidentally bring their parents back to life by reading the words on the heart of damballa, their only family heirloom. chucky and tiffany try to settle on what name to give them and debate their gender; chucky wants him to be "glen" and tiffany wants her to be "glenda." unable to come to an agreement, they focus on the real problem which is how they can get different bodies. they decide they'll possess actress jennifer tilly and the director of an upcoming film who she's trying to "impress" to get the lead role. however, tiffany swears off killing and tries to forbid chucky from killing, too, for the sake of their family. obviously both of them immediately kill a bunch of people. glen/da kills a couple people accidentally but under a high amount of stress reveals that glen and glenda are actually separate identities, glen being sweet and innocent, glenda being a killer. anyway they impregnate jennifer tilly, who through voodoo magic gives birth to twins. however, chucky abandons the plan, deciding he's going to embrace his identity as a killer doll. he and tiffany fight and she flees with glen/da. she finds jennifer tilly at the hospital and possesses her. chucky makes a reappearance and attacks them, but glen kills him by dismemberment/decapitation. they possess the twin babies, a boy and a girl, one for each of their personalities. in the epilogue, tiffany lives as jennifer tilly, raising glen and glenda by herself. she kills the nanny when she complains that glenda is unstable and violent. so yeah! this one gets really meta. john waters gets his face melted off with acid. etc. a fun fact about this one is that the movie promoted that paris hilton was NOT in the film - this is because she's briefly featured as a character in the film played by a lookalike, and her press team didn't want people to think it was actually her

curse of chucky (2013): a soft reboot of the series that returns to a more straightforward horror approach. introduces the character nica pierce (played by fiona dourif, brad dourif's daughter), a young woman who is paraplegic and lives in a big, old house with her mother, who she has a somewhat tense relationship with. someone sends her mother a good guy doll (without the scars and stitching chucky had in bride and seed), which she dismisses as a joke or a mistaken address, but of course she winds up dead. nica's sister, her husband, her daughter alice, alice's nanny, and a priest she has invited (to nica's chagrin) come to stay with nica. the sister tries to convince her to sell the house and tells her that she's not capable of living alone. family tensions rise to the surface; namely, that the sister is having an affair with the nanny and the husband suspects, so he puts a camera in the good guy doll. they also watch some home videos together and notice a creepy guy hanging around their mother in the footage, who nica later recognizes as charles lee ray. anyway people start dropping dead in this big old dark house and nobody can find alice, who is playing hide and seek with her new best friend chucky. before she is killed, the sister peels off the paint covering the scars that reveal that it's the same doll from the other murders. nica figures out that the doll is possessed by charles lee ray but of course nobody believes her. after killing her whole family besides alice, he tells her that before he died, he had been infatuated with her mother, kidnapping her while she was pregnant with nica after killing nica's father. she somehow called the cops on him and, enraged by her rejection of him, he stabbed her in the stomach, causing nica to be born paralyzed from the waist down. nica and chucky fight, and she injures him, but he gets away when she's found by a cop who comes to the house. she is found guilty of the murders in court and sent to a psychiatric institution. in the end, tiffany gets chucky from the police evidence and sends him to alice, who he plans to possess. in a post-credits scene, chucky is mailed to an adult andy barclay, who shoot him as soon as he cuts his way out of the box.

cult of chucky (2017): last movie!! nica has been held in a high security psychiatric institution and now is being transferred to a medium security institution after "making progress" by accepting that chucky was a product of her psychosis after she killed her family. her therapist brings in a good guy doll as part of her treatment, and it is adopted by one of the other patients who thinks it's her dead baby. the next day, nica has a visitor. expecting to finally get to see alice again, she's disappointed that it's actually tiffany valentine, who says that she was alice's legal guardian, but alice had died - we later learn that chucky possessed her, but she died when one of his victims fought back and his soul jumped back into the doll. tiffany gives the doll to nica in remembrance of alice. nica eventually recognizes her and realizes that chucky really is possessed. she tries to slit her wrists with a spoke from the wheel of her wheelchair but he stitches her back up and slits the wrists of another patient, starting off the killings. knowing that no one will believe her, nica tries to stop chucky herself without drawing suspicion back on her. meanwhile, in the outside world, andy has been having trouble adjusting to normal life. he's been keeping the decapitated head of the original chucky doll and torturing it (as he deserves to, tbqh). he hears about the murders and realizes that chucky has found a way to split his soul into multiple bodies. so he goes to the hospital to try to stop him. at the hospital, there are now 2 chuckys running around, soon joined by a third doll that arrives in the mail. not only does chucky possess the new doll, but he also possesses nica, supernaturally giving him the ability to walk even though she is paraplegic. so andy gets himself committed to the hospital by attacking a guard, and he's locked in a room by himself. the newest chucky doll attacks him, but andy reveals that it was him who sent the doll, hiding a gun in its stomach. then nica!chucky comes after him and he tries to shoot her, but he runs out of ammo and she locks him back up. she reunites with tiffany and they drive away together with the tiffany doll who is also possessed. in a post-credits scene, kyle shows up at andy's house to keep torturing the original chucky doll.

child's play (2019): a reimagining of the original movie that does not tie in to the rest of the series

chucky (2021 -): i'm not gonna do a full synopsis of this one because there's just too much plot but i will give you a rundown of 1) the relevant lore you need to know to watch the tv series, 2) the pre-doll possession charles lee ray lore that's established by the series, and 3) other lore that is established in the series and relevant plot points

what you need to know:

there are multiple good guy dolls possessed by chucky out there, which andy and kyle are on a mission to track down and destroy

chucky is still possessing nica and tiffany is still possessing jennifer tilly, they're on a murder spree but their relationship is as tumultuous as ever, and sometimes nica regains fleeting consciousness/control of her body

the twins glen and glenda are in their 20s now (they're both nonbinary and use they/them pronouns btw) and they don't remember anything about their doll self, which tiffany-as-jennifer has been hiding from them, and they don't know anything about their absent deadbeat dad

apparently chucky is still using good guy dolls to possess because he can only split his soul into identical forms ? which doesn't make sense lore-wise but that's what don mancini has said lol

charles lee ray grew up in hackensack, new jersey which is why his body was buried there in bride and that's where the tv series takes place (in season 1)

the first 3 child's play movies are canon but the series always goes defers to what's established in bride of chucky when it comes to any differences in plot (as well as overall tone/humor)

pre-doll possession charles lee ray lore:

charles lee ray grew up in the suburbs with his parents in the 1960s. it's a pretty normal childhood until a serial killer breaks into his house and kills his father. when his mother tries to get him to hide in the closet, he kills her, "helping" the serial killer. that's his first kill. after that, he starts seeing a therapist, who encourages his violent behavior. eventually, he goes to live in an orphanage. he's a leader to the younger boys, introducing them to the story of peter pan. one day, they're playing in the woods and he leads them to "captain hook," the body of the janitor who he killed and replaced his hand with a hook. the other boys run away crying except for eddie caputo, who later becomes charles' partner in crime (the guy he vows revenge against in the first movie after his betrayal). after this, he goes on the run. years later, he meets tiffany valentine at a nightclub. they kill a woman together. he tells her she should be blonde and she tells him he should go by chucky, which brings us to the versions of the characters as we know them throughout the series. tiffany and chucky move in together in chicago, but after the honeymoon phase is over, chucky starts killing people by himself, annoyed by her "nagging" that she misses when they used to kill people together. angry, she calls the cops on him, leading to the police chase that is the opening scene of the first movie.

so, the premise of the tv show:

14 year old jake wheeler is a misunderstood kid living in hackensack. he buys a good guy doll at a yard sale for an art project that he's working on. obviously it's chucky and he starts killing people, but he also attempts to befriend jake and coerce him into killing people, too. of course things start spiraling out of control from there.

more lore:

chucky keeps trying to get a kid to commit murder because he needs to get an innocent to kill for this voodoo spell where he can put his soul into a bunch of dolls

season 2 takes place in a catholic school and a bunch of the legacy characters return (andy, kyle, nica, glen, and glenda) to perform an exorcism along with the main characters jake, lexy, and devon and the headmaster of the school (played by devon sawa). because of the exorcism, chucky is infected by catholic magic and can no longer call upon damballa to give him his power, and he becomes trapped again in the doll body which starts becoming more and more human and aging rapidly. this becomes a big part of the plot in season 3, which primarily takes place in the white house, as he tries to sacrifice as many people as possible to appease damballa, but it doesn't work. at this point in the story he is slowly dying of old age

at some point there's a cult of chucky dolls in the woods near the catholic school who kidnap and torture andy ?

at the end of season 2, glen is fatally injured. tiffany transfers their and glenda's soul into the original glen/da doll, now called g.g.

tiffany-as-jennifer is put on trial for all the murders and at this point in the story is in prison on death row

so devon sawa is in every season of this show despite being killed (at LEAST once) every season. in season 1, he plays jake's father and uncle who are twin brothers, in season 2 he plays the headmaster of the catholic school, and in season 3 he plays the president of the united states

there was also a documentary that was released in 2021 before the tv series came out called living with chucky where they interviewed the filmmakers and a lot of the actors who are featured throughout the series. i thought it was pretty good, it's on tubi

anyway i think it's really interesting to see a series last so long and make so many pivots to keep exploring the story and the characters in new ways. at the end of the day the first two movies will always be my favorite but bride of chucky is also so fun and so iconic and a perfect response to changes in the genre and brought a lot of new humor and energy to a series that had pretty much fizzled out, and it has been really fun to watch the tv series in real time as it comes out. the next episode actually comes out tomorrow night!! so let's see what happens. anyway i hope i didn't make you regret asking me this and thank you for giving me an outlet for my crazy about this silly little movie series

what’s the last screenshot you’ve taken for your story? I wanna open up my game, work on the story and 🌟 vibe today ✨ because I don't have any screencaps for my next update yet! This was the last cap I took. I did the sequence out of order because I was experimenting with wicked whims and general posing, since there's not really any phone sex animations.

10. is your story fully planned or are you still working things out? is there a definitive end?

There is no definitive end yet! There's major things I know that will happen such as [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] but honestly, I tweak my script and outline all the time. For example, there two moments that was supposed to happen in my last arc, but because I had so much to focus on, these events were moved into this plotline.

12. do you actually play the game or do you just use it as a storytelling medium?

I usually use it as a storytelling medium, but sometimes I do play the game! Like in my last gameplay file, Rosaria had Pietro's baby, and Pietro did get engaged to her, but they haven't been married yet. I was so surprised when I hopped into that file. I was looking through old gameplay caps the other night and found images of a AU 90s file I had where Linda was a serial killer. She romanced Bjorn and killed his wife. And Eve was dealing with the misery of having a mom as a murderer. It was a good mix of storytelling + gameplay. It'd probably be a good story on its own ngl 😂

17. what about the process do you hate?

I don't mind building, but decorating lots is a pain. Because I want the backgrounds to look 'full' and 'natural.' Usually if a specific story sequence is coming and I'm building/furnishing a lot, I try to do it months and weeks in advance. 😔

24. are there any characters who remind you of yourself?

Sal has the same birthday as me, Eve was raised by her grandparents like I was, I was a receptionist for awhile like Rosie, I love cartoons and art like Ben! So, to a degree, they all have little traits, interests or experiences I had. It makes the writing more real, you know?

"Cat" - Lyrics + Translation Analysis

As it happens to be Kazui's birthday, let's talk about the lyrics in Cat some more - Mostly using the official translation (since it's accurate for the most part) with a few exceptions. I'm not great at Japanese and only know a few words, so whenever further translation was needed, I hit the books. If I miss any context, feel free to add on!

I believe Cat, at its core, is about Kazui's decision to confess his love to an unseen second person in his MV OR confessing his 'sin' to his wife. This song is not about Hinako/his wife, though she plays an important role in the visuals of the song.

Alright, let's start with some minor things.

Lie, until it gets better, follow the king of the masquerade

This pretty much stays the exact same in Japanese, with the exception of a reference to "kyogen", a japanese form of traditional drama. 'Kyogen'-type theater usually serves as intermissions between the longer and more serious 'Noh' plays, in which actors wear masks. Kyogen is more comedic in nature and uses slapstick.

(This line has probably been analyzed to death: It's a pretty clear indicator of Kazui being a self-declared 'master of deception'/having lied his whole life about something, like he mentions in his Voice Drama.)

Since when have I ignored my feelings?/It’s better to be a let down, than to be let down yourself/I just wanted to touch, to caress/I just wanted to be touched

(Nothing interesting to add translation wise. I believe this batch of lyrics is Kazui wrestling with himself over whether he should tell the truth or not: In my opinion, this is about him being unsure whether to confess his love to the unseen second person in the scene we see later in his MV. (or if you're on copium like me, the bartender guy...))

So it’s wrong? Oh shove that!/INNOCENT, isn’t that right?/Maybe, perhaps… or… could it come true… like/It’s for the sake of true love, who wouldn’t lie for that?

The only notable difference in translation is, in classic MILGRAM fashion, the word 'INNOCENT' being 'FORGIVEN' in the Japanese version. So, y'know. We know this.

(This is the only lyric that is a bit of a puzzle to me. Kazui believes he was in the right for lying to his wife/Hinako, because he couldn't have lived in a society where he'd be seen as strange or an outsider. So, he did what everyone else does around him: Once he's an older adult, he gets married. Not sure what the 'true love' part is about, in this case - maybe he believes to reach that desire he craves, he has to put up this charade.)

Love (plus) Destiny = Crap, smash it, shatter it, bye-bye/That sticky-sweet sequence: Dinner + Camouflage + You-Know-What/Loving Affection (minus) Love, it’s tacky, this two-way deceit/Victim and Perpetrator, let’s keep it simple

Hate to disappoint but Kazui is not making an awesome reference to sex with "You-Know-What" - 'nanchatte' is used more like "what a joke" in this context. In the sense that - this is just what everyone does, you already know the rest of the story.

Interesting to note is that the official english lyrics were changed at some point: The third line of this batch used to say this:

Devotion (minus) love, lame, cheating

I think this may have been changed to remove the reference to 'cheating'. In English, cheating can be used as both cheating at games and as cheating in relationships - while in Japanese, these terms are very different. The term used in Japanese still seems to mean 'cheating' in the game way, fitting Kazui's gambling/showman theme.

(I think these lines are pretty clear to read from a story perspective. Kazui isn't actually in love with his wife and presents their relationship as a lie, he's 'cheating' at the game of love. Also, 'camouflage/disguise' is an interesting choice of words - disguising himself as what, trying to fit in with who? The norm, methinks. He wants to appeal to what everyone else is doing.)

Phew, oh wow I’m drunk/Hey, so what if I said I liked-liked you, what would you do?

The english variant of this text uses 'like-like', and I'm not too sure why. The japanese version uses 'daisuki', perhaps a bit of a more cutesy way to say 'love' than 'aishiteru'. Maybe the intention in the japanese text is a more childish tone due to Kazui's intoxication.

(This lyric, in my opinion, is the big moment the first few batches of lyrics have been building to: Kazui confesses his feelings to whoever this mystery person is in a state of intoxication.)

I just wanted to ask, so it’s out in the open/I just got a little greedy

(Nothing too interesting translation wise. "I wanted to ask" obviously refers to "What would you do?" Pretty self-explanatory as well. Kazui believes his confession was selfish. He likely feels bad for his wife.)

All those things I wanna do that I can’t say out loud/I gotta keep it inside and act/The beating of this heart… see… it’s no longer about good and bad… it isn’t/I realize the futility, but I still can’t help but dream

'I gotta keep it inside and act' would perhaps be more accurately translated to 'I gotta drink it up and swallow it'. Reference to substance abuse. Awesome.

(I love repressed people!!! Kazui, since indulging in his desire and confessing his feelings, isn't sure about his place in the world. It's no longer about good or bad, his desire is impossible to make a reality, his only escape is fantasizing. Which leads us back to his constant references to 'dreaming', all the way to his lyrics in UNDERCOVER.)

I can’t stop, I can’t be normal/This feeling, it can’t be gratified/I can’t stop, I can’t be normal/This feeling, it’s yearning to be satisfied

(Oh boy, we're on yearning now, huh. More dilemmas in his head - he's fighting with himself on if his 'unnatural' desire is wrong, but he knows he can't live with himself if he doesn't fulfill it.)

Let's take a breather

(Unsure. Some translations say this is also 'Just a quick smoke/I need a quick smoke'. Maybe smoking is supposed to represent him indulging in his desire at this moment. That, or he wants a break from his inner conflict - Or even confessing to his wife is a 'breather'.)

Love (plus) Destiny = Crap, smash it, shatter it, bye-bye/To be caressed by you, that would be perfection/I wanted to be loved, just like a cat/Maybe act capricious, on my word and at my fancy

Here's an interesting difference between the Japanese and English versions! In the original version, 'caressed' is 'pet'/'stroked'. The translation also removes the 'you' from the third line. So maybe this would be a little more accurate:

To be pet by you, that would be perfection/I wanted you to love me like a cat

Unfortunately, I have no idea what the last line is supposed to be in the original. DeepL translated it as 'I might want to leave it with you on a whim' - other sites translate it as something among the lines of 'making a deposit'. I'm at a loss of how to interpret this line. LOL.

(Perhaps important context to add is that, in Japanese context, 'being loved like a cat' would be receiving love but not giving much in return. People have pointed out the gay slang 'neko' reference to this about a dozen times before, and even though the lyrics do not use the kanji associated with the slang term, I believe it could have some merit.)

Lie, until it gets better, follow the king of the masquerade/Lick that sin and oppose punishment, until you can meet the king of the masquerade

(This is a pretty 1:1 translation. What does 'lick that sin' mean? Man what do I know. It's another cat reference, though! I think the last line is referring to his verdict in the first trial, maybe. Perhaps Kazui is building up his lies even more, in some way, and repressing himself more? I'm a little unsure. It is plausible that he's growing more comfortable in his persona.)

Overall, I believe this song is Kazui finally coming to that decision of confessing his love for the unknown person. 'Half' may have been about him contemplating it, which would make 'Cat' a pretty direct continuation of this little story - I wonder if his third trial song might end the story!

I'm personally of the opinion that Kazui's 'desire' is either of the nature that he just can't stay in relationships for too long without getting bored (which cracks in some places, especially in the MV) or that he is some flavor of LGBT which is more taboo in Japan, especially for male role models like him - a cop, big, strong, masculine... Obviously he'd be pressured to enter a heteronormative life.

This was really fun to do! I might do this sort of thing with more future MILGRAM songs, so if you have any requests, let me know! If you have anything to add translation-wise, feel free to correct me. Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed!

I was having trouble thinking of what to say about this chapter besides the Tiger Poem. It does really sum up the entirety of my Valancy feelings, to the point where I almost posted it yesterday before checking to see what chapter we were on. I first read this book less than a week ago and chapter 13 had fully escaped my memory already. Sorry Stirlings, you’re less cool than Roaring Abel Gay.

Anyway, it belated occurred to me that this entire sequence of events must be very nearly as wild for Abel as it is for the extended Stirling clan. Two weeks ago Valancy waved at him, an occasion so momentous and unexpected he very nearly fell out of his buggy, and now she is not only sitting down and chatting with him (surely a first) but she offers to go be his housekeeper. In a single afternoon, after one conversation. He seems more sanguine about things than the Stirlings (not hard to achieve) but his mind must be whirling.

Or perhaps not. We know he believes in predestination (is that a standard Presbyterian thing? My generic white protestant only in as much as we weren’t anything else family did not prepare me for the nuances of this discussion.) It is very possible that Valancy said, “Will I do?” and Abel went, “Huh. Guess that’s why I’ve been working for these women all these years. Fair enough.” And certainly the weather continuing to be unseasonally cold is adding weight to Abel’s worldview. Why did it rain on Valancy’s birthday and continue to be cold enough into June that her mother was forced to close the window? Because it simply couldn’t have been any other way. Who is God but the omniscient narrator of what has already been written?

I had to look up Isiah 55, and I’ve copied the whole verse under the cut, for the curious. (The internet informs me it’s a King James translation, but I welcome corrections if the internet has lied.) I was trying to figure out what bits Abel was quoting at the minister during his wife’s funeral. I think it would be funniest if it was this bit: “For My thoughts are not your thoughts/Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord./“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,/So are My ways higher than your ways,/And My thoughts than your thoughts.” Or, in other words, “You don’t talk for God and stop trying.”

I think Valancy is not being entirely fair to Abel when she says he could never understand why she didn’t go see Cissy before. He knows her mother and the rest of her family. I’m sure he can put the pieces together that even if she had wanted to go she would never have been allowed to. He’s just being snappy at her because she was judging him two sentences ago.

“Ho! Everyone who thirsts, Come to the waters; And you who have no money, Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk Without money and without price.

Why do you spend money for what is not bread, And your wages for what does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And let your soul delight itself in abundance.

Incline your ear, and come to Me. Hear, and your soul shall live; And I will make an everlasting covenant with you— The sure mercies of David.

Indeed I have given him as a witness to the people, A leader and commander for the people.

Surely you shall call a nation you do not know, And nations who do not know you shall run to you, Because of the Lord your God, And the Holy One of Israel; For He has glorified you.”

Seek the Lord while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.

Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the Lord, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon.

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord.

“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

“For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater,

So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

“For you shall go out with joy, And be led out with peace; The mountains and the hills Shall break forth into singing before you, And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.

Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress tree, And instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree; And it shall be to the Lord for a name, For an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.”

Hi Sarah!! So happy you opened up your asks again cos I love talking to you

Here is also a breather from all the TS asks cos I'm personally sick of her and will not forgive her for releasing that album on my birthday (cos my bestie made my day all about her 🤡)

Anyway just wanted to gush with you about Monkey Man and just life things! (Spoilers for Monkey Man below @ everyone who wants to watch it!)

Monkey Man was everything Tamil movies are afraid to do. (I'm talking abt Tamil movies specially cos I'm Tamil and only watch those and Bollywood/Hindi films). The backstory packed a punch but the fridging of his mom was a bit disappointing to me cos IT'S SUCH a typical Tamil movie trope and one I hate. But I guess it wasn't his wife so kinda a step up 🤷🏽

Other than that I am OBSESSED with the last fight scene esp with a particular group of people and their costuming iykyk!

As a former film major, I LOVED that this movie had opened up a lane for the Indian community in Hollywood and hopefully one day I'll get to write a romcom for Dev Patel and Simone Ashley - that's the dream tbh!

yes! i loved that final fight sequence so much, it was so powerful and such a beautiful underdog finally getting to fight back moment ugh it was amazing. i had no idea that the mom going through all that was so common so that’s interesting, and yes i need them in a rom com asap. and he deserves to be in a light movie after all of that work he put into this one with breaking so many bones lol, let that man chill

M*A*S*H - Viewguide, S5

Are you interested in the long-running anti-war situation tragicomedy M*A*S*H (1972-1983), but there are simply so many asterisks and so many episodes?

Well I can’t help you with the asterisks, but nor can I help myself: I started watching all 11 seasons of M*A*S*H, and bringing back for you my viewing selections, chosen for The Qualities.

— — —

This season overall I'd say feels kind of, mild? Less low lows and less high highs. Just middley. I nearly included one episode almost wholly for the appeal of being maybe 75% set at night (something I would do), and secondly for the appeal of Hawkeye sleepwalking, when he's not waking from nightmares. But it's very I'll say "Season 5" in that despite this, it's just, I don't know somehow milder than I might want, especially when this set-up naturally recalls the much odder and eerier 'Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde' from Season 2, with (and possibly even because of) its spikier swings between the antic and traumatic.

But it happened that a lot of the stronger stuff here lent itself to putting together something of a more focused character collection. So welcome to our Special Issue!, highlighting the previously maybe somewhat under-served Major Margaret Houlihan, and Captain BJ Hunnicutt:

M*A*S*H - Season 5 Recommended sequence

5x03 ‘Margaret’s Engagement’ - So fun to me that Margaret & Frank transitioning from “secret” lovers to “secret” exes is somehow the exact same mood while having the opposite content. Ending comes out of nowhere and on a pretty weak joke, but when it's just Hawkeye & BJ lounging on each other on Margaret’s bed as she hops around showing them her goofy little engagement ring, that’s the Margaret & The Boys ‘Silly Mood’ vibes I've been missing, baby. Loretta Swit is back!

5x06 ’The Nurses’ - This one made me cry??? It was written and directed by women. It’s about women having complex relationships with each other. Bechdel Test smashed, only took us four seasons!

5x08 ‘Dear Sigmund’ - It's the context here that really has me like, haha totally. This is the first episode they’ve let Alan Alda write all himself in three calendar seasons, and he's like great, okay: can I just get down nothing but a bunch of character meta and headcanons for everyone and put that up as TV? Yeah Victor Hugo that sounds wild, please do.

5x09 ‘Mulcahy’s War’ - Father Mulcahy goes out to the front to experience the horrors (more), but amazingly the real reason I'm including this one is that Gary Burghoff’s distressed little straight man hilarity here made me laugh so, so much, and then have a staggering realization: the character of Radar O'Reilly is absolutely the progenitor of Guillermo de la Cruz.

5x10 ‘The Korean Surgeon’ - Would be worth it for Hawkeye & BJ talking to Radar in the mess tent ALONE (Gary Emmy-winning year). But also I love their kind weary surgeon friend from ~the other side~

5x15 ‘The Most Unforgettable Characters’ - At 10 minutes in I'd thought, alright this is probably just another middle sort of one, and then at 10 minutes and 30 seconds, BJ (BJ, baby??!) spontaneously proposes that he and Hawkeye spend the rest of the episode play-acting that they're fighting to entertain Frank for his birthday, inspiring Barbara Kruger four years later to go, y'know what, I'm gonna have to comment on this.

5x19 ‘Hanky Panky’ - You tell me “BJ episode where he cheats on his wife,” and I’m going to say, “hm well that’s not the kind of character development I think I want,” but I would be wrong about that! A) love her, she's great in this, B) there is one particular revelation BJ shares here that is just, exquisite information. I will say no more at this juncture (Watch Notes: Coming soon!), but in light of oh, a lot: oh my god.

5x25 ‘Margaret’s Marriage’ - Let’s bookend this! One thing I love about long episodic seasons, is that after Margaret somehow ever more hilariously saying the name ‘Lieutenant Colonel Donald Penobscott’ for 22 episodes, the man finally appearing felt like forbidden Beckett.

And also now say bye-bye, Frank [chorus: bye-bye, Frank!]

Season 1 • Season 2 • Season 3 • Season 4 • Season 5 • To be continued

Miscellaneous Media Moment

Alright so I'm watching the anime The Way of the Househusband on Netflix and writing my thoughts as I watch. This might be a tad unhinged, but here we go. As always if you liked this content feel free to be me a coffee. Also, yes, I do know that there a multiple episodes in each episode but I'm going to number them by how they're contained and labeled through Netflix as that's how I'm watching it :)

Episode one

The intro music is not what I was expecting. Very metal

The tattooed back, wow detail work

the interaction between him and wife, cute

Him taking pics of the food

The entire interaction between him and the cops, subtle/not subtle info drop, the fact he got pulled over on a bicycle, the coupon

Have I caught you at a bad time? No I was just carving something up? Blades. You going to show me the goods then? (This entire dialog and visual sequence was such hilarious and good writing in showing his cooking skills)

Being excited over the cabbage

The recycling of the bottles, I had such a flashback to all the times I've done it myself

Turf = Family

LOL the slapping

The black and white target acquired, such a cut from the last scene

The juxtaposition between the violence/serious noir vibe and sweet/silly moments!!

Oh he's trying so hard for his wife and she's just like wha? Also the fact she can match his intensity and smack him out the window is hilarious and good showing of their relationship dynamic

The end of the episode with the cat POV, is an interesting choice. Cat and bugs.

Episode Two

The metal intro is going to be the off putting thing for me isn't it. I get it suits the character backstory but my ears say ouch.

The intense bursts of music and the cut to the roomba, lol

Obligatory Ceremony (Wedding) GASP

Destruction via cat and roomba ending in bloody disaster

The flatline noise for the policure thingie

Everybody makes mistakes and it matters how you handle it afterwards paired with six feet under is great

Again with the slapping, lol

Nothing like getting hit by a 2 by 4. (Whoever wrote the dialog for this series did so well!)

The hula hooping, is that a smile?, strike a pose, This the [insert dark past] pose, the dedication to his wife and the pic of wife using the hula hoop is so cute

the good white powder = flour, the yes ma'am, the fact that she is so not intimidated by him at all and can outmatch that energy in his POV is adorable

Ok, so the ending with a cat adventure is going to be a running thing. Neat. Cat with dog.

Episode Three

Yay, Netflix allows me to skip intro!

The Tiger vs Dragon rivalry, the househusband vs crepe slinger cook off, the food commentary, the photo shoot and winning by one like lol

differing car standards, room for putting a person in the trunk, driving defensively, what did I just watch O...O

Again with the slapping, the chemistry lesson, the hardware store line, the differing stains and intense cleaning, cut to the calming laundry line

Him learning more skills... peak character moment

Street Vender = Rip Off, simple items interpreted with dark intentions

Patio garden, air pumping the bicycle wheels, the cops staking him out to begin with and them seeing this as criminal behavior, busting into the birthday party is such a moment, the line "you're one feminine felon" (Seriously as someone who hates to write dialog this shows one lines are so satisfying and hilarious)

Cat adventure with other cat and litter box.

Episode Four

The slow-mo for the volley ball, the volleyball face-off and how into it each team go into it, the handshake of good game and the group pic afterwards

The wife following along her husband's day is cute, the dog plushie reward

THE FOOD ALONE DESERVES AN ANALYSIS POST!!!

The x = y subtitles as sub context is hilarious and, also the back flashes being used to add story depth without info dumping

He is such a drama king, equally matched by his wife's antics. The entire cockroach sequence showing this. The wife's poor aim!

Intense and Scary Santa, delivering extreme food. That's not a sleigh. the running gag of him being pulled over on a bicycle by the cops is perfect!

Oh, no cat adventure, interesting break of pattern

Alright well thanks for coming to this Miscellaneous Media Moment where I do unhinged and most likely nonsensical rambling of what I watched is a thing. I will most likely continue at some point, so stay tuned and please let me know if this is a format that you liked. Along with any comments on the show that you have.

HI its ur husband in law and rival 🧃

oddly specific but can i ask for sova wanting to celebrate m!reader's bday which happens to also be on halloween?? tyty (⁠~⁠￣⁠³⁠￣⁠)⁠~

hello this is your wife-in-law here with your government mandated sova fic

(if this isn’t want you wanted feel free to hate crime me I’m sorry)

Sova/Reader - Celebrations

Halloween was a foreign concept to Sova.

Of course, he knew the fundamentals. Dress in spooky costumes, go around and get candy then watch shitty horror movies for the night.

If he didn’t know, he would’ve learnt quickly, as some of his fellow Protocol agents were very excited about the holiday (legends say that Raze is still trying to convince Viper to dress up to this day).

But Sova had never celebrated it. It just wasn’t something that happened back home.

Birthdays, however? He’d done plenty of those.

Not only was he from a big family, but Sova was an especially sentimental man, so birthdays meant a lot to him. He'd both attended and planned many in his time; he knew how to pull out all the stops when a celebration needed celebrating.

This, however, was not how birthdays usually went. At least, in his experience.

"It's a classic," you teased, brandishing a DVD with the title 'Corpse Bride', "how haven't you seen it?"

"I'm not sure," he answered. He hadn't seen a DVD since his childhood, and even back then it was becoming an obsolete technology, so he was more shocked at how you managed to get your hands on one (and why the Protocol dorms had DVD players installed in their high-tech monitors).

You flopped onto your couch, various pillows surrounding you, and beckoned him over. He obliged, sitting on the opposite side.

"This is not how I'm used to birthdays going," he admitted, "but if it makes you happy, I'm happy."

You grinned, and he felt his heart melt a little. You clicked on the TV and said, "it's a Halloween tradition for me to watch it. Even if it wasn't my birthday, I'd probably ask you to watch it anyway."

He chuckled as the opening sequence began to play.

You looked over to him.

"Y'know, you don't have to sit that far away from me."

Sova swallowed thickly. "I didn't want to make you uncomfortable."

"It's okay," you smiled, "plus, it's my birthday. Don't I get a cuddle?"

With a little tired- and slightly bashful- sigh, Sova opened his arms. You happily accepted, cuddling right into him, so close that he could smell your hair and feel every dip and curve of you against him.

He was glad the movie was distracting you from his face, lest you see how red he got at the contact.

What a birthday, indeed.

#reader insert #asks #x reader #sova x reader #sova #HEY ALEKS #SORRY THIS TOOK LIKE #THREE YEARS #IT IS PROLLY SHIT #BUT THAT IS FINE #NO IT ISNT BUT IM SORRY OKAY #<3

Robot Chicken #64: “They Took My Thumbs” | December 14, 2008 - 11:30PM | S04E02

I forget if I discussed the gimmick of this season's episode titles, so I'll do it here, possibly redundantly. They titled each episode so that if you were to sequence them in production order (like how they usually appear on DVD), the resulting list of episode names will spell out a cohesive message. That way, when you buy the DVD, the episodes will be listed in production order, resulting in the pay-off.

This episode felt like it had fewer sketches than most, meaning there was an emphasis on longer sketches with only a handful of channel-change gags or shorties. The first one is about the contractor building the dungeon trap from the opening sequence of Raiders of the Lost Ark. The joke being that it’s silly and doesn’t make a whole lotta sense. Also the contractor sorta got a little too creative vs. what was actually asked of him. This one is decent, basically on par with an average SNL sketch. Actually now I’m recalling sketch where Christopher Walken plays Blofield, and James Bond shows up to his liar unexpectedly ahead of schedule and he has to apologize for the construction going on. This is different enough for me not to be pissed at it. Also the Walken sketch sucks.

Next is Train Man, about a guy who gets squished by the Subway and must live the rest of his life being squished, for if they move the train it will cause his organs to fall out of his body and he’ll die. He spends his lifetime being a businessman and ignoring his wife and kids. There’s a guitar song that goes along with it. I guess this one alludes to an old urban legend. I don’t know man, I didn’t get much out of this one.

The next sketch is about Jason Vorhees leading a boring life of quiet domesticity, but he eagerly awaits Friday the 13th so he can go out on have a killing spree. This one is fine, I guess, but the premise is faulty. I am pretty sure Jason doesn’t care about the actual day he kills people. This MF would kill on Talk Like A Pirate Day if he felt like it. And he should!

You see, I wrote the joke “this MF would kill on ____ if he felt like it” and that’s what I came up with. Sorta low-hanging fruit. I could’ve gone with something edgier, like my birthday. Can you imagine bad stuff happening on my birthday? People wouldn’t be able to say “happy birthday” to me. This is the saddest thing I can think of right now!

Wildman is a sketch where kids are persuaded by one of their mothers to go swimming instead of cooping themselves up playing video games. She’s helped along by Wildman, a kid-friendly “outrageous” rocker whose advice gets preachier and lamer. The kids become disillusioned with Wildman, who doesn’t seem all that wild to them any more. The final gag is Wildman departing with a message against gay marriage. This one’s decent, too. Not mad at it! Wildman is voiced by Sebastian Bach, and he gives an great performance.

The final sketch is Bring A Sidekick to Work day, which is a bunch of lame riffs on DC Comics heroes being lads with each other. Sebastian Bach voices Martian Manhunter in this one, which was a little surprising to learn. The Robot Chicken crew have said in one of the few audio commentary tracks I listened to that when they get a guest star, they typically have them voice three different voices. Usually it’s obvious, like when you have somebody like Keith Crawford voicing a doctor. According to the wiki, this sketch was co-written by Geoff Johns, a guy whose name I’ve seen on DC comics before.

I’d call this one slightly stronger than most Robot Chickens, but I am very tired of sketches where Superheroes are horny. Just knock that shit off. All of them retain their semen, or have been chemically castrated as ordered by a judge. Sorry, I’m a stickler for this sort of thing.

Halloween 2023 marathon: 6-8

La Llorona (dir. Ramon Peon, 1933)

Dr. Ricardo de Acuna and his wife Ana are celebrating their son Juan's fourth birthday. Ricardo's aged father is not so pleased about it though because he is convinced their family has long been cursed. Years ago, Ricardo's older brother was murdered on his fourth birthday, so the old man is convinced the same fate will befall Juan. A skeptical rationalist, Ricardo isn't worried, but little does he know there is a shadowy figure lurking about the house intent on snatching up his son. And what of reports of seemingly supernatural murders accompanied by the wailing of La Llorona, the ghost of a wronged woman who murdered her own child in spiteful rage-- a ghost whose story happens to be connected to Ricardo's family.

I first heard about La Llorona from the Haunted Blowfish YouTube channel. As far as can be known, it is the first Mexican horror talkie. The story is inspired by the legend of La Llorona, or the Wailing Woman. There are many variations of this tale, but the gist is that a woman murders her children in a rage (usually to spite an unfaithful husband or lover) and then is doomed to eternally mourn them. This legend has inspired several horror movies over the years, though this is the only one of them that I've seen.

La Llorona has some genuinely creepy moments. The sound of the titular ghost's cries are eerie and the lore behind the curse is fascinating. You can detect a lot of influence from Universal horrors like Paul Leni's The Cat and the Canary and Tod Browning's Dracula: the modern characters scoffing at the gothic horrors of the past, the house with secret passages, a cloaked criminal popping up undetected, etc. I also liked the film's connections to Mexican history, particularly to La Malinche and the conquistador period.

That being said, this is a movie where the parts are more satisfying than the whole. It's extremely slow-paced and not in a tense, slow-burn way. Some scenes go on way too long to no purpose, like when the camera lingers on kids stuffing their faces at Juan's birthday party. There are two major flashback sequences-- the first is fine because it occurs earlier in the movie and establishes the lore behind the family curse, but the second occurs so late in the game that it gives the movie the sense that it's stopping and starting, lurching along. That's the sequence that draws the connections to La Malinche, but its placement just feels awkward.

If you're a horror buff, this should definitely be on your radar. Its historical importance is immeasurable and even though it has its flaws, it still has some spooky scenes and an old-school gothic vibe I will never not love.

Dead of Night (dir. Alberto Cavalcanti, Charles Critchon, and Basil Dearden, 1945)

Architect Walter is invited to the country for a job. He encounters several other people in the country house-- and is surprised that he recognizes them all from a reoccurring nightmare he has-- a nightmare that happens to take place in that very country house. The other guests find this perfectly strange and end up sharing their own encounters with the supernatural and the unexplained.

This was another film I first heard about from Haunted Blowfish (both this movie and La Llorona were featured on his 100 Years of Horror series, which I highly recommend). It's an early example of a horror anthology with a particularly strong frame story. In fact, the frame story is the creepiest part of the whole movie, but more on that later.

All of the stories are really good, not a bad one in the lot. While the final tale with a killer dummy is the most celebrated, it wasn't my favorite. I loved the Christmas one, an understated little ghost story that reminded me a bit of The Innocents, and the mirror story, which actually creeped me out quite a bit. The mirror one involves a woman who buys her fiance an antique mirror, but anytime he looks into the glass, he sees a dark, sinister bedroom completely unlike the chamber he's standing in. It turns out the mirror has a sordid tragedy associated with it and the soul of the previous owner begins to overtake the woman's fiance until matters get deadly.

But the most chilling thing of all is the frame story, which takes on elements of ontological terror. I was genuinely surprised by the ending. If you haven't seen Dead of Night, I don't want to spoil it, but just know it gets really trippy, almost verging on science-fiction with its final twist.

Highly recommended!

PS I kept thinking to myself that the actor playing the architect in the frame story looked super familiar. It turns out he played Bob Cratchit in the Alastair Sim Christmas Carol!!

The Bird with the Crystal Plummage (dir. Dario Argento, 1970)

American writer Sam is vacationing in Italy with his British model girlfriend Julia when he witnesses a woman struggling with a mysterious man in black. The woman is stabbed and Sam is just able to contact the police in time to save her. However, the killer is still on the loose, striking down young, beautiful women. Sam and Julia aid the police in their investigation, only to become targets themselves.

I've been watching more giallo lately-- if you're unaware of what that is, the term refers to a cycle of Italian horror movies from the 60s and 70s that combined crime, Hitchcockian thrills, and exploitation elements into a stylish, dreamlike genre. Dario Argento is one of the giallo masters. I'd seen his Suspiria and his Phantom of the Opera (in which the Phantom is raised by telepathic rats... yes, that is a movie that exists, and a movie I enjoy enough to own on bluray, heaven help me). The Bird with the Crystal Plummage was Argento's directorial debut and it's a strong one at that.

This is a good example of what I think of as a "vibe movie." I wasn't too invested in the specifics of the mystery of the killer, but Sam and Julia are likable characters and there's a weird hangout vibe to the scenes where they're just going over theories and evidence in their messy apartment. Aesthetically, this is a great time capsule showing the transition of the late 60s into the 1970s. There's oddball humor scenes and some scary moments, like when Julia realizes the killer is outside her door and she does everything she can to keep herself secure. I was shouting at the screen during that scene, something I only do if a movie has me by the throat.

On a not that related note, it was weird for me to see Tony Musante as the hero. I'll always associate him with The Incident, a really tense 1967 thriller in which he plays one of the nastiest thugs in cinema history. Seeing him as a good guy is just surreal after he scarred me for life in that earlier movie.

Anyways, this is a good one, stylish and entertaining. You can catch it on Freevee.

“And of ten-thousand years, are such all experience,”
