00:00:00This video is going to be insane. Thank you!
00:00:07Are you kidding me?
00:00:09Are you kidding me?
00:00:10Are you kidding me?
00:00:11Out of the...
00:00:12Quality movement.
00:00:16Are you kidding me?
00:00:18Are you kidding me?
00:00:21Quality movement.
00:00:22Are you kidding me?
00:00:24I bet this is okay. A 100k viewers is going to be so good. I hope so.
00:00:28Quality movement.
00:00:29Are you kidding me?
00:00:30Out of the gate!
00:00:36Quality movement.
00:00:37Are you kidding me?
00:00:38Out of the gate!
00:00:40The gate!
00:00:42The gate!
00:00:44The gate!
00:00:46The gate!
00:00:53First villain comes in the form of an...
00:00:55Equality movement.
00:00:56Are you kidding me?
00:00:57Out of the gate!
00:00:58Fear. Are you kidding me?
00:01:00Fucking great start there, Brick.
00:01:02You're introduced to the...
00:01:05There, Brick.
00:01:06You're introduced to the idea that benders are oppressing...
00:01:09You're introduced...
00:01:10You're introduced to the idea that benders are oppressing non-benders in the...
00:01:13You're introduced to the idea that benders...
00:01:16Oppressing non-benders in the city.
00:01:17And you're introduced to it by someone telling you that is the...
00:01:20And you're introduced to it by someone telling you that is the case.
00:01:25But outside of a set of gang co...
00:01:27But outside of a set of gangs called the...
00:01:29Triads, there really isn't any actual oppression going on in the city.
00:01:32Not on a systemic level, at least.
00:01:34Not on a...
00:01:39Not on a systemic level, at least.
00:01:41So the idea of non-bender...
00:01:43So the idea of non-bender oppression is largely absent and invented from whole cloth by Amon and his equalists.
00:01:49Well, duh, Lily. He's a liar with a personal vendetta against benders.
00:01:52Well, duh, Lily. He's a liar with...
00:01:54Well, duh, Lily. He's a liar with a personal vendetta against benders.
00:01:57Of course he's making shit up.
00:02:02No, no, no. You don't... No, no. You don't get it.
00:02:06No, no. No, no. You don't get it.
00:02:11A common argument that bigots in real life often use is that oppre...
00:02:15A common argument that bigots in real life often use is that the oppressed are inventing their oppression or oppressing themselves.
00:02:23So using that as a fundamental baseline for a story is extremely fucking disgusting.
00:02:28Especially when you rip your entire aesthetic right from the headlines.
00:02:32Amon and his equalists are a direct parallel to the Occupy Wall Street movement,
00:02:36an organization against economic equality that began with a two-month occupation of Zuccotti Park in New York City in 2011,
00:02:48and ended with a march on Wall Street in 2012.
00:02:53This was a serious movement about issues that have only gotten worse since then.
00:02:57And so for Cora to take what was at the time a very present...
00:03:01So for Cora to take what was at the time...
00:03:03What was at the time...
00:03:05Cora to take what...
00:03:07So for Cora to take...
00:03:10For Cora to take what was at the time a very present movement
00:03:13and turn them into a pack of uncoordinated thugs radicalized by a deceptive conman is bordering on actual propaganda.
00:03:20Cora as a series is really dead set...
00:03:50Hmm...
00:03:52Hmm...
00:03:53Hmm...
00:03:55I'm sure it brings in a call, but it's either for all super no it is or Malcolm X was too mean,
00:03:59you should be more like MLK who we need...
00:04:01Who we absolutely treated fairly.
00:04:03Oh yeah.
00:04:09You just have these reaction moments from random media in the memory hole
00:04:13en masse for when the opportunity arises.
00:04:16Now I write them into the script!
00:04:20...
00:04:22...
00:04:24...
00:04:26...
00:04:28...
00:04:30...
00:04:32...
00:04:34...
00:04:36...
00:04:38...
00:04:40...
00:04:42...
00:04:44Oppaganda.
00:04:45Cora as a series...
00:04:46Oppaganda.
00:04:47Cora as a series is really dead set on supporting the status quo in all things,
00:04:51and so any push to change the status quo in either direction is villainized.
00:05:01What all did Amon's daddy do to him?
00:05:03Uh...
00:05:05Abused him and forced him to learn psychic bloodbending.
00:05:17...
00:05:27...
00:05:32...
00:05:41...
00:05:47This has always been the politics of Korra.
00:06:10This show wants to be political, but it doesn't want to take a stance on anything.
00:06:14It reminds me weirdly enough of Pokemon Black and White, where the question of
00:06:17ethics of training Pokemon is being used as a backdrop for one liar's crusade,
00:06:30and I'm left wondering, why did you bring it up if you weren't going to discuss it?
00:06:35The issue of non-vendor oppression is often stated as a problem in the city,
00:06:40but we never actually get to see it. Now don't get me wrong,
00:06:44show don't tell isn't an absolute rule, but if you're going to talk about an issue in the city...
00:06:53Reminds me of Jeffrey Dauber who killed gay men while also being a gay man.
00:06:57No, no, no, no, no. He killed men of color while being a racist.
00:07:09Hmm. Yeah, he specifically targeted black men. Black and Latino men.
00:07:33Hmm. Yeah.
00:07:39Like, bigotry is the primary motivation for most serial killers.
00:07:45And school shooters, if we're being honest.
00:07:52It's like people for years were basically wondering why, it's like,
00:07:57why did the Columbine kids decide to murder so many of their classmates?
00:08:02Well, we know why they did it, because they left videos and journals and shit,
00:08:08and they were neo-Nazis who mostly killed women and non-white classmates.
00:08:23Hell, the reason Canada has gun control now is because of a misogynistic murderer.
00:08:53Hmm.
00:09:23Hmm.
00:09:53Hmm.
00:10:07Hmm.
00:10:19Hmm.
00:10:22City, but we never actually get to see it. Now, don't get me wrong,
00:10:25show don't tell isn't an absolute rule, but if you're going to talk about an issue in the city
00:10:29to this degree, I mean, I mean, it has to exist where, I mean, it has to exist. I mean, it has
00:10:36to exist. Where else did Amon get all those radicalized henchmen? I mean, it has to exist.
00:10:43Where else did Amon get all those radicalized henchmen? You think we'd have seen it by now?
00:10:48Hmm.
00:11:18Hmm.

00:14:54Hmm.
00:14:56Hmm.
00:14:58Hmm.
00:15:00Hmm.
00:15:02But if it turned out that Tarlok was on the whole time, that would have been insidious.
00:15:12Like create a problem in order to crack down on non-benders, and then when they get radicalized
00:15:28it turns out their own oppressor was playing them on both ends?
00:15:32Man fuck the whole the revolutionary is a violent liar plot, how about the character
00:15:37of the revolutionary leader was your oppressor the whole time?
00:15:43That is a, I mean, that's a, that would be a biting critique of the wave revolutions.
00:15:52That would be a biting critique of the way revolutions often position a single grand
00:16:13leader at their front, given Amon has inklings of socialism behind him this would be extremely
00:16:20nuanced.
00:16:25Socialist movements are a universal good.
00:16:27Even if you don't believe in socialism, even if you don't believe in socialism, some of,
00:16:34even if you don't believe in socialism, some of, even if you don't believe in socialism,
00:16:41socialist movements are a universal good.
00:16:45How many takes does it, how many takes does it get for Lillie to fucking say the goddamn
00:16:50sentence without flubbing it?
00:16:52Socialist movements are a universal good.
00:16:54How many takes does it get for Lillie to say a sentence without getting tongue-tied?
00:16:58Socialist movements are a universal good.
00:17:00Even if you don't believe in socialism, something's got to keep the corpos from getting too comfortable
00:17:04on their thrones.
00:17:05Even if you don't believe in socialism, something's got to keep the corpos from getting too comfortable
00:17:12on their thrones.
00:17:13I've always been of the opinion that communism isn't the result of regulating and strangling
00:17:17private industry, it's the consequence of refusing to do so.
00:17:25There's no faster way to end up in the Soviet Union 2.0 than to let the corporations do
00:17:29whatever the hell they want and radicalizing the people in the process.

00:19:41And while socialist and communist movements in the past tend to vary, it's always the
00:19:44ones that position some thought leader at their forefront that end up turning into violent
00:19:49dictatorships because, well, shit.

00:21:09dictatorships because, well, shit.
00:21:38Socialism is a movement of the people, and when socialism goes wrong, it always ends
00:21:42up being because someone took socialism and rewrote it to be their own special version
00:21:46of it that positions themselves as working-class Jesus, like Leninism or Maoism, bold revolutionary
00:22:02leaders who took power and immediately opened the forced labor camps.
00:22:06A revolution without a revelation.

00:26:18Screw our country!
00:26:20I wanna live!
00:26:27Hold it, man.
00:26:29Make sure he stays here like a good soldier.
00:26:38Man, make sure...
00:26:42Where's the giant, Mansley?
00:26:45Theory would be genius.
00:26:47That not only solves the issue of...
00:26:48where the fuck is the oppression, Mansley...
00:26:57Of where the fuck is the oppression, Mansley.
00:27:02The issue of where the fuck is the oppression, Mansley...
00:27:10It not only solves the issue of...
00:27:12Here's the oppression, Mansley!
00:27:42I'm going to get it.
00:27:46There's tons of moments in Season 1 that would have supported it.
00:27:50It doesn't take much for Tarr to lock...
00:27:52Uh...
00:27:531-8...
00:27:551-8-12-0-3-1...
00:28:09Tarr, they would have gotten away.
00:28:11If it wasn't for Team Avatar...
00:28:14I didn't see your little task force or the cops the whole time.
00:28:18...was tear up the city and impede the real authorities in their pursuit of these criminals.
00:28:22Hmm, that's funny.
00:28:24What you did was tear up the city and impede the real authorities in their pursuit of these criminals.
00:28:29Hmm, that's funny.

00:28:35If it wasn't for...
00:28:37...moments in Season 1 that...
00:28:38Oh, goddammit!
00:28:41...moments in Season 1 that...
00:29:11...moments in Season 1 that...
00:29:20What alarm was that, smoke detector?
00:29:24It doesn't take much for Tarr to lock...
00:29:27...1-8-12-0-3-1...
00:29:29It doesn't take much for Tarr to lock...
00:29:31...to start creating...
00:29:36But it's...
00:29:37to tear up the city and impede the reapers in their pursuit of these criminals.
00:29:41Hmm, that's funny. I didn't see your little task force or the cops the whole time.
00:29:47It doesn't take.
00:29:511-8-12-0-3, 1-8-20.
00:29:59Want. It is a quality we both share.
00:30:02You and I are nothing alike.
00:30:04Look, I'll make you a deal.
00:30:07You fall in line and do what I say, and I'll release your friends.
00:30:12That's why you arrested them? To get to me?
00:30:15I need your answer.
00:30:18Chucora, your willingness to go to extremes in order to get what you want.
00:30:24See, that's what I admire about you, Chucora.
00:30:27Your willingness to go to extremes in order to get what you want.
00:30:34It doesn't take much for Tarlok to start creating an entire apartheid police state right in the fucking city.
00:30:48I'm sorry, Chucora.
00:30:50I'm sorry.
00:30:51I'm sorry.
00:30:52I'm sorry.

00:31:19But.
00:31:20But.
00:31:22That would have required Bryke taking a stance or something.
00:31:26Next level corruption.
00:31:28But.
00:31:29But that would have required Bryke taking a stance on something, and a big reason Korra's
00:31:44political storytelling is so bad is because they refuse to take a stance on something.
00:31:49It's always this weird golden meme, Val.

00:34:34that this was just Tarlok's brother with daddy issues
00:34:36radicalizing people out of some petty revenge.

00:42:22But the actual mature themes in Ghibli's work are found in Grave of the Fireflies...
00:42:32Found in Grave of the Fireflies, or Only Yesterday, which are decidedly...
00:42:38Which are decidedly bereft of the high adrenaline catharsis...

00:43:10Pretty well...
00:43:12That's not even to call Mononoke bad, it's just the last thing I would think of if you
00:43:33asked me to name an example of mature animation.
00:43:55There's a conflict between the desire for maturity and dark themes in animation, but
00:44:17also still wanting to make the same action-adventure shows we've been making since the 80s, which
00:44:24is why you end up with political espionage being used as the backdrop for a battle shounen.

00:47:59being used as the backdrop for codependent catgirl incest.
00:48:12Everything the characters have learned turns out to be meaningless. As the equalists are defeated
00:48:19as the equalists are defeated by anime fighting,
00:48:21a monster is revealed to be a liar and flees with his brother as they reminisce about old times.
00:48:48Come on boys!
00:48:56Hmm.
00:49:14Yo, I'm back. What did I miss? You missed the codependent catgirl incest.
00:49:27Kaboom. Yes Rico. Kaboom.
00:49:39It's about old times. Kaboom. Yes Rico. Kaboom.
00:49:50Oh, so nothing new. Yeah.
00:49:52Kaboom. Yes Rico. Kaboom. Kaboom. It's about old times. Kaboom. Yes Rico. Kaboom.
00:50:22and
00:50:50I am Kaboom. Yes Rico, Kaboom.
00:51:06Yes Rico, Kaboom.
00:51:14Kaboom. Nothing is actually learned from the equalist plot. Remember season one
00:51:19has made an isolation from the rest. So remember season one was made an
00:51:29Remember season one was made an isolation from the rest. So the reform in
00:51:34the Republic. The rest. So the reform in the Republic. So the reform in
00:51:40the Republic. They're independent. President Rico. This is all season two
00:51:44stuff.
00:52:14Instead the season ends on Korra being gifted her bending back along
00:52:19with energy bending and the and the avatar state. Energy bending, energy
00:52:27bending, and the avatar state. The season ends on Korra being gifted her bending
00:52:34back along with energy bending and the avatar state and given Korra's
00:52:38progression as a character. This is oddly brisk. It's a common
00:52:44It's a common sentiment. One I've seen, one I've even erroneously
00:52:48echoed in the past. I've even erroneously echoed in the past
00:52:55to claim that Korra is given everything. But the truth is Korra works hard for
00:53:02almost everything. It's just that her hard work and dedication is having to
00:53:06share space with a desire for a big oh shit moment. It's just that her hard
00:53:11it's just that her work and dedication is having to share space with a desire
00:53:17for a big oh shit moment. Is having to share space with a desire for a big oh
00:53:21shit moment. So instead of Korra actually learning to airbend through practice she
00:53:26unlocks it at the exact moment the plot needs her to for maximum oh shit. Korra's
00:53:32airbending training stops being relevant training stops being relevant
00:53:37about halfway through the season at exactly the moment where she should have
00:53:40started being able to actually use it. But she isn't able to because it's being
00:53:44held back to be the big oh shit moment for the first season. Korra's
00:53:47where she should have started being able to actually use it. But but she isn't
00:53:52able to because it's being held back to be the big oh shit moment for the first
00:53:55season. Korra's lost her bending and now Mako's about to lose hey oh shit. You can
00:54:00almost you can almost picture the writing room you can almost picture the
00:54:03writing room with Breit going. Everyone's gonna be losing their minds. They're
00:54:07gonna be clipping it on Facebook Twitter and Google+. You can almost picture the
00:54:11writing room with Breit going. Everyone's going to lose their minds. On Facebook
00:54:17Twitter and Google+. Because it's 2012 and Google plus was a thing then. Lose
00:54:25their minds. They're gonna be clipping it on Facebook Twitter and Google+.
00:54:29Because it's 2012 and Google plus was a thing then. Now about the whole thing
00:54:32about how every problem was actually intentional. Now about that whole thing
00:54:36about how every problem was actually intentional. Season one is ultimately
00:54:40just a political revolutionary turns out to be a liar plot. Season one season one
00:54:52is ultimately just a political. The political revolutionary turns out to be
00:54:57a liar plot that the 2010s got really into. But the problem is that every other
00:55:03possibility for this story. Problem the problem is that for the problem every
00:55:08other possibility for this story to have taken either Amon is serious. Story to
00:55:13have taken either Amon is either Amon is serious and there is a problem in the
00:55:17Republic's. Problem in the Republic's. Problem in the Republic's. The problem is
00:55:23The problem is that every. Either Amon being serious and there is a. That every
00:55:30other possibility for this story to have taken either either Amon being serious
00:55:34and there is a problem in Republic City that Cora has to accept and deal with or
00:55:37Amon is secretly Tarlac running some secret conspiracy operation are both way
00:55:41more interesting. Are both way more interesting. Cora took a villain that at
00:55:49Cora took a villain that at the time was very novel and chose to take the most boring and safe route they could. At every
00:55:55Avenue they had the opportunity to do something really unique and cool and
00:55:58willingly chose not to. And this will continue being a problem for the rest of
00:56:03the series. Fire Lord Ozai was a pretty damn simple villain because
00:56:07but because of his simplicity they could do a lot of cool things with him. The
00:56:11tension between his family, the conflict with his children and his brother, the
00:56:15way that the war is this the way that the war is the distillation of previous
00:56:19avatars failures. All of it is very interesting all of it is very
00:56:26interesting using the simple interesting using the simple story of an invading
00:56:31evil Empire as its foundation and it's a very solid foundation.
00:56:45Foundation. Amon and the Inquilists take a complicated idea and at every Avenue
00:57:04chose to simplify it further and further and that's just tragic. We were on the
00:57:09verge of greatness we were
00:57:26we were on the verge of greatness we were this close
00:57:39just tragic we were on the verge of greatness we were this close we were on
00:58:07the verge of greatness there and further and that's just tragic we were
00:58:14on the verge of greatness we were this close wasted potential will be the order
00:58:18of the day going forward sadly the Civil War
00:58:23I am the righteous hand of God and I am the devil
00:58:33I don't know if I'm using that
00:59:03I am the righteous hand of God and I am the devil
00:59:08I am the righteous hand of God and I am the devil
00:59:15of the four men antagonists in Korra Unalaq was my favorite up until the
00:59:20second half of the season of the four men antagonists in Korra Unalaq was my
00:59:23favorite up until the second half of the season so I'm gonna be referring to
00:59:27pre beginnings Unalaq and post beginnings Unalaq as separate characters for
00:59:31reasons that will make sense in a little bit Unalaq is the chieftain of
00:59:34the northern water tribe and the de facto chieftain of the southern water
00:59:36tribe as well the water tribes in avatar are unique in that unlike the fire
00:59:45nation and earth kingdom there are two separate nations with separate cultures
00:59:48but during the war the fire nation had nearly destroyed the southern water
00:59:51tribe to the point that they're living in almost post-apocalyptic but during
00:59:54the but during the war the fire nation had nearly destroyed the but during the
00:59:58war the fire nation had nearly destroyed the northern tribe committed a lot of its
01:00:03resources to the post-apocalyptic state the southern water tribe to the point they're
01:00:08living in an almost post-apocalyptic state the northern tribe committed a lot
01:00:11of its resources to rebuild the southern water tribe and by extension their chief
01:00:15became the south's chief because of a number of fact because of a number of
01:00:21factors namely being rebuilt during a time where the because of a number of
01:00:25factors namely being rebuilt during a time where the united republic was
01:00:30coming into power the southern tribe was rebuilt into a more secular mercantile
01:00:35civilization and have slowly drifted toward economic growth over cultural
01:00:40growth the southern over cultural growth the southern tribe has more the southern
01:00:45tribe has more in common with Republic City than any other nation they even use the
01:00:49same currency the yuan
01:01:49hmm
01:02:09mm-hmm
01:02:19mm-hmm
01:02:26mm-hmm
01:02:30mm-hmm
01:02:46the southern tribe has more in common with Republic City than any other nation
01:02:49they even use the same currency the yuan this has created a problem for the south
01:02:53as the water tribes are situated near the spirit portals and as such have a
01:02:56unique relationship with the spirits so the southern tribes abandonment of its
01:03:00older cultures have caused the spirits to become increasingly angry to the point
01:03:03there's a permanent blizzard around the southern water tribes to the point
01:03:07there's a permanent blue on the southern water tribe spirit portal this for the
01:03:17first half of the season at least is the reason Unalaq is in the South Pole at
01:03:20all spirits are rampaging like crazy and the avatar is supposed to be the one
01:03:23dealing with it but Korra was never trained in spiritual matters reasons that
01:03:26still make no sense um actually Lily Unalaq is we'll get to that hold your
01:03:30horses actually Lily Unalaq is
01:03:36we'll get to that hold your horses the first few episodes for the first few
01:03:40episodes the main point of the conflict Unalaq and Tanraq Korra's father for the
01:03:45first few episodes the main point of conflict between Unalaq
01:03:51for the first few episodes the main point of conflict is between Unalaq and
01:03:54Tanraq Korra's father and Korra ends up getting caught in the middle as Unalaq
01:04:00tries to appeal to her for help with the spirits and Tanraq keeps inserting
01:04:03himself into the matter in fact Tanraq ends up driving Korra further into
01:04:07Unalaq's clutches by being almost physically incapable of showing the
01:04:10avatar any respect whatsoever he hides things from her tries to control her
01:04:14inserts himself into conversations with her teachers and seems to do everything
01:04:17but have any faith in Korra's ability it all pisses Korra off this pisses
01:04:21Korra off and it should it pisses me off
01:04:26and it should it this pisses Korra off and it should it pisses me off have any
01:04:31faith in Korra's ability at all korra off it should it pisses me off
01:04:36Unalaq ends up being the only one who actually trusts her as the avatar
01:04:41x2 1720
01:05:11You know, sometimes I wonder, find your, but I don't have any connection with the spirits.
01:05:15In fact, it seems like they, what is it?
01:05:19I have to believe in yourself.
01:05:21Like I believe in you.
01:05:24What is it?
01:05:25I guess I'm just so used to people telling me how to do things that I forgot what it was like to have someone trust in me.
01:05:31Cora, all the past avatars live on inside of you.
01:05:36Let them guide you.
01:05:37Let them help you find the light in the dark.

01:06:54This is genuinely one of the sweetest moments in the season.
01:06:57It makes me depressed that Unalaq is the villain at all.
01:06:59The plot could have just been about the long standing damn.
01:07:02One of the sweetest moments in the season.
01:07:04It makes me depressed that.

01:09:47Genuinely one of the sweetest moments in the season.
01:09:48The plot could have just been about the long standing damage to the South Pole by the Hundred Year War.
01:09:52Genuinely one of the sweetest moments in the season.
01:10:08Genuinely one of the sweetest moments in the season.
01:10:17Genuinely one of the sweetest moments in the season.
01:10:19To the South Pole by the Hundred Year War.
01:10:20And about mending not only the damage to the North and South Spirit Portals and the tribe's relationship with the spirits.
01:10:25But the tribe's relationships with each other.
01:10:27And maybe also the two.
01:10:37To the South Pole by the Hundred Year War.
01:10:46But the spirits but the tribes relationships with each other.
01:10:49And maybe also the two.
01:10:50And maybe also the two brothers as well.
01:10:55And maybe also the two brothers as well.
01:10:58And maybe also the two brothers as well.
01:11:00The first half of the season has a sibling.
01:11:02The first half of the season has a sibling motif.
01:11:04motif. The first half of the season has a sibling motif, with the B plot being about
01:11:10Tenzin's dysfunctional relationship with Bumi and Kaeya. Tonraq and Unalaq are arguably the
01:11:15main characters of the season, and the North and South tribes are often referred to as sisters.
01:11:26All of them, in some way, are affected by the Hundred Year War. Tenzin and his siblings were
01:11:30the victims of unequal parenting by Aang, who favored his lone Airbending Child because of
01:11:35how the war made him the last of his people. All of this is wrapped up in Airbending Child
01:11:40because of how the war made him the last of his people.
01:12:00All of this is wrapped up in a problem that Korra can't just punch. This could have been
01:12:07one of the best stories Avatar ever told. It would have just had to commit to something that a lot of
01:12:16animation considers to be taboo. Not having a villain.
01:12:21Not having a villain. Not having a big high-stakes anime fight at the end.
01:12:38Actually using the world-building you care so much about. But not having a villain is just
01:12:44unthinkable to some people. Even if it would drastically improve the story. Even if it would
01:12:48improve the storytelling because you don't have to bend and twist everything around
01:12:52so that two action figures will throw rocks at each other. The response is always going to be
01:12:57like, even if it would drastically improve the storytelling, don't have to bend and
01:13:04twist everything around so that two action... To some people. Even if it would
01:13:12drastically improve the storytelling because you don't have to bend and twist everything around
01:13:15the two action figures will throw rocks at each other the response is going to inevitably be
01:13:20but villain no but villain no response is going to inevitably be but villain no
01:13:32the last time i talked about avatar i pitched the idea of an avatar after kora whose primary
01:13:36point of conflict is the fact that she's always cowering behind her sister and after i pitched
01:13:41i and after i pitched that idea and after i pitched that idea i was
01:13:47pitched that idea i was in another i was inundated with ass yeah i was into that idea
01:13:57yeah i was inundated with assks basically going villain villain can we has the villain
01:14:03and when i kept can we has a villain can we has the villain
01:14:07can we has a villain villain can we has a villain I'm a villain
01:14:37I'm a villain I'm a villain I'm a villain I'm a villain I'm a villain I'm a villain
