Minute 112 - We Put Cold, Unlovable B**ches Like Us On A Bagel!
4 november 2026 · 57 min
Waymond calls out across the chaos — Evelyn, please, no more — and she lets go of Deirdre's throat. The script said "no more fighting." The film cuts the last word, and it changes everything: he's not asking her to stop swinging, he's asking her to stop being the kind of person who would. Jobu, already walking away, stops and turns back to watch, visibly furious that her mother might be learning something. She raises a foot over Evelyn's face, moves it aside at the last second, and steps over her toward the stairs. Deirdre detaches the blade from an industrial paper cutter and comes back swinging. And then: Evelyn sitting down outside the laundromat, next to Deirdre, asking what her silly husband said. Deirdre tells her about the day her husband served her papers and she drove his Kia Forte through the neighbor's kitchen. And then the line: it's cold, unlovable bitches like us who make the world go round. Lees meer
We dig into the villain trope Lester loves most — the one where the hero's kindness makes the villain angrier, because being proven wrong this late means reckoning with everything you've already done. He also tells the story of the best villain death he's ever seen, from a 1983 Osamu Tezuka movie about a baby unicorn, which has stuck with him since he was five. Plus: the cut lines from the 2022 script that the performances made unnecessary, why "my ex gave me the papers" became "my husband gave me the papers," why "hysterical" was correctly removed from the famous line, and the specific horror of sitting on the same side of the desk as your nemesis.

Minute 111 - We Put A SURPRISE BAGEL On A Bagel!
28 oktober 2026 · 58 min
Jobu grabs Evelyn's hands and pries them apart in a slow, playground-style gesture — not the hand vagina from the hallway, something new — and the gap between their fingers becomes a window. Through it we see Temple Jobu's eyes, serene and goddess-like, perfectly aligned with the hurt, human Jobu standing right in front of Evelyn. The window rises past her bagel hair bun and then higher, revealing the actual bagel, now here, in the atrium. Everything starts getting pulled in. Two of Jobu's own acolytes go first. Then Daniel Kwan, in a cameo that ends with his face tearing off to reveal another identical face underneath. Jobu says she doesn't care if Evelyn comes with her — enjoy your life — and walks toward the stairs with Deirdre marching behind her. Evelyn Naruto-runs through the foliage, lands in front of her like an anime character, and Jobu just smiles, nods, and turns away. Lees meer
We open with something that didn't land until after last week's recording: Evelyn crossing back to Waymond without reaching for her daughter can only read, from Jobu's side, as I won't do this with you, but go ahead. Which is worse than a rejection. We also dig into why the film slowed this moment way down instead of doing it anime-style like the script describes, the three possible readings of Jobu's "I knew it" face, and why the Daniels refused every easier version of this beat. Plus: Evelyn choking Deirdre in a way that is genuinely too violent to be funny, the Daniel Kwan cameo and the ethics of director cameos generally, spaghettification, and an unpixelated glimpse behind the movie magic.
Heads up: we've got a bonus episode coming at the end of the month on the 2018 Halloween requel, because we can't stay away from Jamie Lee Curtis.

Minute 110 - We Put Hair That Spells Your Name On A Bagel!
21 oktober 2026 · 51 min
Evelyn and Waymond are still holding each other, lit by the colors of infinite worlds, laughing like two people who can't believe they found each other. Then the lights fade, the music quiets, her fist unclenches — and a long, stretched-out, echoing voice comes through from somewhere else: ooooooh. It's Jobu, finishing the word "cute," in a brand new outfit covered in neon, teddy bear sleeves, and a single strand of hair curled on her forehead spelling out her name. She pulls Evelyn into the temple, points at the bagel, says come on. Evelyn walks out of frame — and reappears in the atrium, back beside her husband. Jobu nods. She says: I get it. And then, very deliberately: eventually, that all just goes away. Lees meer
We spend most of this one on Jobu's rejection, and why it's one of the rawest moments a villain gets. She didn't just lose the argument; she opened herself up in the rock universe and got turned down, and Evelyn choosing happiness is proof that the thing Jobu built her whole philosophy around might not be true. We talk about how rarely a major female villain gets to be devastated in a specifically feminine register rather than being made monstrous by masculinizing her, and compare that to Nurse Ratched, Annie Wilkes, and Cameron Diaz in Vanilla Sky. Plus: three of our barbershop quartet are now Jobu's guards (armed with pencils, scissors, and a keyboard), why they're dressed for the New Year's party, Jobu imposing a fake deadline on an infinite bagel, and a long, unplanned detour into bodkins.

Minute 109 - We Put Laundry And Taxes On A Bagel!
14 oktober 2026 · 48 min
We made it to the line. Foxy Waymond finishes it — in another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you — laughs a small rueful laugh, and walks out of the alley and out of the movie for good. And then the film does something you don't expect: instead of cutting to Cinderella Evelyn's reaction, it cuts to our Evelyn, in the atrium, receiving that speech while looking at a completely different Waymond sweeping up broken glass in a laundromat. She crosses the room and hugs him. He drops the dustpan. Lees meer
We spend a good chunk of this one on translation. A listener sent us a Tumblr post years ago arguing the English subtitle is a slight mistranslation, and that the Mandarin is closer to "if we had another life, I would still choose to do taxes and open a laundromat with you" — a rich man explicitly saying he'd trade all of it. We dig into both versions, and then Kynan points out the chronology runs backwards from what everyone assumes: the English was in the script first, and the subtitles came from the script rather than from the performance.
Plus: the smiley face stamped into the dustpan, why the sound of it hitting the floor isn't the sound a dustpan makes, the googly eye Waymond snuck onto a lantern two hours earlier that the movie deliberately didn't show us at the time, and Evelyn laughing so hard the tears come out sideways. This is the end of Act Two.

Minute 108 - We Put A Shave And A Haircut On A Bagel!
7 oktober 2026 · 59 min
Evelyn says "It's too late, Waymond." And then, after a long pause, reaches out and takes his hand. That single touch opens everything: the two of them as newlyweds with their hands stacked on the couch, Waymond turning from the TV to ask if she saw that (she didn't, she was looking at him), tearing the newspaper off the windows of a brand new laundromat, twirling in their apartment, finding the remote under the couch and being genuinely delighted about it. He taps a service bell in a shave-and-a-haircut rhythm and asks what song it is. Then green light creeps across her face and we're in the Hong Kong alley, where Foxy Waymond turns around and says: in another life. Lees meer
And that's where the minute ends. We had to cut the most famous line in the movie in half, which we assume was done to us on purpose.
We work through what "it's too late" means when she immediately contradicts it, and land on this: it's too late to be Jobu and too late to be Waymond, and what's coming next is Evelyn mode. We talk about how these aren't flashbacks — she's actually present in these moments, which is exactly the thing Jobu swore she'd never manage again. And Kynan spent most of his research week on that service bell: shave and a haircut goes back to 1800s minstrel songs, becomes the rhythmic skeleton of Bo Diddley's "Who Do You Love" and Buddy Holly's "Not Fade Away," and was used by American POWs in Vietnam as a knock-code because the locals didn't recognize it.

Minute 107 - We Put The Last Temptation Of Evelyn On A Bagel!
30 september 2026 · 52 min
Atrium Waymond finally finds the words — the only thing I do know is that we have to be kind — and then turns and aims it directly at his wife: please be kind, especially when we don't know what's going on. In the Hong Kong alley, Foxy Waymond tells Evelyn he knows she sees herself as a fighter. So does he. This is how he fights. The music swells. Evelyn is waking up. And then Jobu's voice cuts through with one word — bagel — and the whole thing stops dead. Alpha Gong Gong orders the attack. Jobu steps forward, completely earnest, and tells her mother she could still turn around and avoid all of this. Lees meer
Lester makes the case that this is The Last Temptation of Christ, and Kynan — who covered both the Kazantzakis novel and the Scorsese film on the other show — agrees completely. The temptation on the cross wasn't power or bread or kingdoms. It was a normal life: come down, get married, have children, grow old, don't be the son of man. That's the one that actually lands for a regular person, and it's exactly what Jobu is offering here. You don't have to be the hero. You can just walk away.
We also dig into why the be-kind speech doesn't exist in the 2017 draft, what changed between 2016 and 2020 to put it there, and how differently it hits now. Plus: why Foxy Waymond calling kindness a strategy reframes the whole thing, and how that connects to the genuinely radical pacifism of Jesus, Gandhi, and King, which was never about overcoming anyone.

Minute 106 - We Put A Plea For Peace On A Bagel!
23 september 2026 · 46 min
Two Waymonds. Two speeches. At the same time. In the Alpha Verse, a stabbed Waymond stands between Evelyn and a dozen armed jumpers — one of whom is holding an office desk phone as a weapon — asking if they can just stop fighting, and admitting that he doesn't know what's going on but somehow feels like it's all his fault. In a green Hong Kong alley, Foxy Waymond tells Evelyn that choosing to see the good side of things isn't naive. It's strategic. It's necessary. It's how he's learned to survive through everything. Lees meer
Here's the realization that reframes this whole stretch of the film: Ke Huy Quan has two famous speeches in this movie, and almost nobody thinks of them as separate. People quote both constantly — laundry and taxes, and be kind especially when you don't know what's going on — but they're braided together so tightly that they feel like one continuous thought from one person. They're not. They're two characters in two universes making two different arguments. We spend the episode pulling them apart and then arguing about whether they're secretly the same speech in different dialects.
We also sit with "somehow this feels like it's all my fault," which is factually wrong — this is the Waymond who says Raccoon Waymond and Raccoon Joy, he has no idea what's happening — but lands on Evelyn at exactly the right moment. She's been telling herself that her whole life. She's also been saying it out loud to him for twenty years. Hearing it in his voice is what finally breaks it.

Minute 105 - We Put Being Too Sweet On A Bagel!
16 september 2026 · 55 min
Deirdre pauses at the door on her way out, shares a look with Evelyn, and staggers off looking like someone dropped a bomb on her. Waymond, still kneeling in front of his handcuffed wife, tells her he doesn't know how he did it — he just talked to Deirdre — and he is openly, unmistakably crying while trying to look like he isn't. Then he stands up, picks up a broom, and sweeps the broken glass while quietly singing a Chinese New Year song. Meanwhile, in a green-lit Hong Kong alley, Foxy Waymond says Evelyn's father used to call him too sweet for his own good, and maybe he was right. And in the Alpha Verse, Waymond stands in front of the wife who stabbed him, arms out against a dozen jumpers, saying please. Lees meer
We stop the episode to sit with what Ke Huy Quan is doing here — real tears, in a performance where the character is trying not to cry, in a conversation that's clearly scarier to him than facing down the police. We talk about the specific kind of masculine melodrama that wrecks audiences, and about the twenty years Hollywood took from all of us by not casting this man. And then Lester looked up what Waymond is humming while he sweeps: "Gongxi Gongxi," written in 1945 to mark the end of the war, tied to an older myth about a beast that came each winter to eat villagers — so at dawn, neighbors ran out, saw each other alive, and shouted congratulations. Not on winning. On surviving. Waymond is standing in the wreckage of his marriage singing a song that means we made it through the dark together.

Minute 104 - We Put Nothing Special On A Bagel!
9 september 2026 · 47 min
Jobu is outside the laundromat window with a cigarette, grinning, telling Evelyn to come back to the bagel — and then to ignore it. But Evelyn can't stop watching Waymond whisper something into Deirdre's ear. We're too far away to hear it. We just watch Jamie Lee Curtis take it in with her whole body: straightening up, clutching the eviction papers, breathing out, and then telling the cop to let Evelyn go before slumping hard against the washers like the fight has left her. Waymond walks over with his hands going into his pockets — somehow both aw-shucks-it's-just-me and John Wayne after saving the town — and crouches down in front of his handcuffed wife to tell her everything is going to be okay. Evelyn says that's impossible. Jobu, nearly talking over her, says it's just a statistical inevitability. Nothing special. Lees meer
Daniel Kwan originally wanted ADHD to be a running theme in this film, and this is the minute where Evelyn's distractibility saves her life. We spend most of the episode on Deirdre — this is the second time she's let this family off the hook, which makes it a pattern rather than a Grinch moment, and we build out a theory of who she was before her divorce and why she became who we met at the start. We also get into the two different faces Jobu is wearing in the same minute, why "statistical inevitability" echoes a line from a deleted Thetaverse scene, and the trope that doesn't have a name but should: making excuses to do the right thing.

Minute 103 - We Put A Hard Time On A Bagel!
2 september 2026 · 58 min
Jobu rises out of the rock universe and back into the Bagel Temple, and finally says the thing the whole movie has been building toward: she didn't build the bagel to destroy everything. She built it to destroy herself — to see if going in meant she could finally escape and actually die. She holds out her hand, Evelyn takes it, and Jobu says at least this way she doesn't have to do it alone. Then static cuts in, and Evelyn wakes up handcuffed in the laundromat while Deirdre tells Waymond that everyone she knows is going through a hard time. Lees meer
This is the minute where the Trojan horse opens. Underneath the hot dog hands and the raccoon voiced by Randy Newman, this has been a mother-daughter drama about a daughter contemplating suicide the entire time. We spend most of the episode there, and with Camus — Kynan reads from The Myth of Sisyphus, which opens by declaring suicide the only truly serious philosophical question, and uses Galileo as its central example: a man who chose to keep living over an argument about whether the Earth orbits the sun. It takes Camus 180 pages to conclude that suicide is the wrong answer, which is exactly why so many people stop halfway and take away the opposite. Same warning applies here: don't stop at this minute.
We also track the creation metaphor carrying over from the rock scene, why the shot of their two hands forms a yin-yang without ever saying so, and what got cut from the scripted version of this conversation — including a line about Evelyn forgetting her silly husband's name.

Minute 102 - We Put A Big F**king JOKE On A Bagel!
26 augustus 2026 · 50 min
Two rocks on a clifftop, still no voices, still just text. Joy says every new discovery is a reminder — and Evelyn finishes it: we're all small and stupid. Then Joy wonders what discovery is coming next to make us feel like even smaller pieces of shit, and Evelyn responds with a single word: language. In a theater where you could hear a pin drop, that gets the first laugh in what feels like ten minutes. Then Joy stares at her, and Evelyn clarifies: I'm joking, that was a joke. They laugh in text — ha ha ha, white and black, filling a wide shot of a dead planet — and in the silence afterward, you can hear the desert wind. Joy says fuck. She's been trapped like this for so long. And she admits what she actually wanted: someone who would see something she didn't. Someone who'd convince her there was another way. Lees meer
Lester takes a swing this episode and argues Jobu might be the perfect villain, and we trace that through Nurse Ratched, Syndrome, Miss Havisham, Darth Vader, and the xenomorph in Alien — landing on the specific archetype Jobu belongs to: the broken hero who ran the journey first, failed, and needs the new hero to prove the game isn't rigged. What makes it devastating here is that Evelyn failed too. We also break down how this scene is engineered: why "language" is a popcorn joke and "I'm joking" is the better one, why rendering laughter as text makes it an idea rather than a sound, and how sound itself slowly evolves back into the scene — wind, then chimes, then one clumsy piano note — like life restarting.

Minute 101 - We Put A Couple Of Rocks On A Bagel!
19 augustus 2026 · 1 uur 9 min
Two rocks. One clifftop. No music, no voices, no movement — just white and black text appearing over them in a universe where life never formed. Joy tells Evelyn that most universes are like this, actually. Evelyn says it's nice. Then Joy starts talking about how we spent most of our history certain the Earth was the center of everything, torturing and killing people who said otherwise, until we found out we orbit one sun out of trillions. Lees meer
After the montage of sixty-nine universes nearly broke us last week, this minute is the movie building in its own intermission — and we are deeply grateful for it. We get into how the Daniels genuinely feared audiences would be bored here, shot backup time-lapse footage of the sun moving behind the rocks as insurance, then cut it for being too energetic. We talk about the missing punctuation in the text and why it makes the whole thing feel like texting rather than dialogue. Kynan reads from William Steig's Sylvester and the Magic Pebble — a children's book Daniel Kwan has confirmed as a direct reference, about a donkey who turns himself into a pink rock and then slowly stops trying to be anything else — which is a genuinely upsetting thing to encounter in a picture book. And we sit with Evelyn's apology, which arrives shockingly early, and what she might really be apologizing for.
Also: Michelle Yeoh is the reason there are no voices in this scene. It was her idea. Rocks speaking English would violate the rules of the universe.

Minute 100 - We Put The Ultimate Montage On A Bagel!
12 augustus 2026 · 1 uur 25 min
Thirty-eight seconds. Sixty-nine universes. Everything everywhere all at once. Lees meer
This is the montage. Evelyn screams and it ripples outward through the bubble map like a red nebula infecting every universe at once. We see her as a cat news anchor, an anime figure on a city crosswalk with her hair in the wind, a nun with a skull, a baby, a drag queen, a prisoner with a "Brew Crew" tattoo under her eye, a bunch of grapes, a tree, a Tinder profile that removes the like button halfway through, and a drone strike that may or may not have her face superimposed over the explosion. The Twin Peaks red room appears for one frame with a subtitle that says "Meanwhile." — period, not ellipsis. Jobu winks directly at us for eleven frames. Then the montage ends quietly: Evelyn drops to the floor at the party, becomes a rock, and the laundromat fades away to a desolate clifftop. Two rocks. Silence.
We go through all sixty-nine universes frame by frame on this, our hundredth episode, covering the hundredth minute of the film. We talk about what the script actually said (one paragraph, basically nothing), how much of this montage must have been built in the edit, and what it means that Jobu winks at us specifically — not at Evelyn, at us. We break down why the montage ends not with a bang but a whimper, what the cop's expression tells us about how Evelyn's universe treats geological transformation, and why two rocks sitting in silence on a clifftop is the most confident directorial choice in the movie. Kynan tracks the color swap: the rock we assumed was grey is, once Jobu's rock appears beside it, definitively blue. Evelyn and Jobu have finally switched.

Minute 99 - We Put A Crash Out On A Bagel!
5 augustus 2026 · 1 uur 8 min
Foxy Waymond pushes Evelyn away, and the all-is-lost montage begins. Raccaccoonie is taken away in an animal control cage, hands fixed to the bars, as Chad screams and strains against the coworkers holding him back. Deirdre hands Evelyn the eviction papers. Evelyn picks up the googly-eyed bat, says "I've always hated this place," and smashes the laundromat window. Opera Evelyn screams with her whole body until she has to crouch to finish it. Hot dog Deirdre cries alone in her apartment. And Jobu's voice threads through all of it: just a lifetime of fractured moments, contradictions, and confusion. Only a few specks of time where anything actually makes any sense. Lees meer
We follow Raccaccoonie to the animal control truck — and then have a long, not-particularly-comforting conversation about what actually happens to raccoons after that. We dig into Harry Shum Jr.'s work in the Chad farewell scene, which crosses the line from parody into genuine melodrama by about two smudges of sincerity, and why that line is so thin and so effective. We break down why Evelyn smashing the window with a googly-eyed bat has all the visual ingredients of a liberation scene — and is scored and shot as a final descent. Kynan distinguishes the all-is-lost moment from the dark night of the soul, and why this film is rare enough to need both. And at 1:38:38, there is a figure in the background who casually raises a newspaper before the glass breaks — not to protect herself, but because she already knew.

Minute 98 - We Put A Knife To The Heart On A Bagel!
29 juli 2026 · 54 min
Evelyn pulls Waymond close at the party while Deirdre's forty-eight hour eviction notice fades in and out of the background. Across universes at the same time: she rips the hat off Chad at the teppanyaki table to reveal Raccacoonie, slams Foxy Waymond against the alley wall and kisses him, throws a handful of elbow macaroni in his face, stabs Atrium Waymond with a shard of broken glass and pulls it out slowly with cold fascination, pushes the divorce papers into Party Waymond's chest, and in the hot dog universe, Deirdre hops away out the door on one foot with her carry-on trailing from the other. Foxy Waymond breaks the kiss and pushes Evelyn away. Lees meer
We go frame by frame through this sequence: the rotating strobe that makes a motionless Michelle Yeoh look like she's cycling through different people, the red light taking over as the decisions get worse, the exact moment Evelyn crosses over from vacant to something colder and more alive. We break down why the stabbing itself isn't shown—we only get the aftermath, Evelyn holding up the glass and registering what she's done with the detached curiosity of someone running an experiment—and we bring in Bruce Block's film theory on triangles: circles are calm, rectangles are stable, and triangles are shards. This is the first major triangle in a film of circles and bagels. Ke Huy Quan's face in that moment isn't asking why. It's asking how.

Minute 97 - We Put A Party Crasher On A Bagel!
22 juli 2026 · 1 uur 11 min
Foxy Waymond gently pushes Evelyn's hands back down and says, if you don't mean it, please don't give me any false hope. Evelyn's laughter bleeds in from across the universe before we even cut. At Gong Gong's party, she grabs the karaoke mic, shouts Happy New Year, signs the divorce papers in front of everyone, tells Waymond no more running, and then Deirdre walks in with two cops to announce the seizure of their personal and business assets. Evelyn smiles with her fingers tented like Mr. Burns. Lees meer
We go shot by shot through the party: Waymond pulling off the lion-or-dragon head looking stricken, the full spectrum of guest reactions from D.Y. Sao's bafflement to Craig Ng still having a fantastic time to Waymond Lee bracing for impact. We dig into why Deirdre crashing this party in person after hours actually makes emotional sense if you read her as someone who extended real trust to the Wongs and got shut up, nothing matters on the phone. We catch Joy watching from outside the window at 1:36:45, parallel to the cops coming in, in a shot easy to miss on first watch. And we spend genuine time on the lion dance versus dragon dance question, which has no clean answer, and why that might be exactly right for the Wongs.

Minute 96 - We Put False Hope On A Bagel!
15 juli 2026 · 1 uur 1 min
Foxy Waymond asks what if you had come with me all those years ago — and then we're at the New Year's party in full swing. Evelyn comes back to life in the Alpha Verse, stares at her hands, and the music rises with what sounds exactly like a hero's reawakening. Then she picks up the phone, tells Deirdre to shut up, tells her nothing matters, and her eyes fill with black. We end in the green-lit alleyway outside the Hong Kong theater, with Evelyn advancing on Waymond saying they'd have woken up every day in a tiny apartment. Lees meer
We spend time on Rick, played by the late Biff Wiff, who passed away in February 2025 after a late-career run that included this film, I Think You Should Leave, and Jury Duty. He's standing at the party in his red suspenders, insinuating himself just close enough to Evelyn to be technically arguable, and we trace everything the movie has done with him since the beginning. We also dig into Debbie the Dog Mom showing up without the dog and actually talking animatedly with Evelyn like they're friends, Jobu's expression when "nothing matters" lands — not triumph, something much more like nausea — and the shot of Evelyn's eyes going black, which is easy to miss and hard to come back from. The false hope of this minute is the whole point.

Minute 95 - We Put Gong Gong's Party On A Bagel!
8 juli 2026 · 1 uur 8 min
The bagel pulses, and every version of Evelyn feels it at once. We watch them in rapid succession staring directly into the camera — from the IRS, from Hong Kong, from a robotics factory with a red eye, from a winter street where she appears to be the cold itself, from a scene near the end of the film with blood in her mouth looking genuinely monstrous — before landing at Gong Gong's party, where red envelopes are being handed out, the Chinese New Year decorations are finally up, and Debbie the Dog Mom has somehow actually shown up. Then Jobu's voice comes in from the temple: all this time, she wasn't looking for someone to kill. She was looking for someone who could see what she sees and feel what she feels. We get pulled through the eye of the bagel, past a swirling vortex that turns out to contain an enormous number of toilets and guitars, and land outside the Hong Kong theater with Foxy Waymond. Lees meer
We go frame by frame through the entire montage, cover what red envelopes are and why Gong Gong gets to hand them out, try to explain why Joy is simultaneously inside and outside the laundromat at the same time, and spend a long time on the moment Jobu's plan is finally revealed, comparing it to the script version and to why the finished line lands so much harder. The short version: we thought this was a movie about stopping a villain. It turns out it was always about a mother and a daughter who stopped being able to talk to each other.

Minute 94 - We Put The Sanctum Sanctorum On A Bagel!
1 juli 2026 · 55 min
Jobu finishes telling Evelyn that right is a tiny box invented by people who are afraid, and the film cuts to a memory: Joy introducing Becky to Gong Gong, the same scene from the start of the movie, except Evelyn's face looks different this time, softer, more apologetic. Back in the temple, Evelyn insists she still knows who she is, that her life was happy. Jobu, instead of looking triumphant, looks almost sad. Then two acolytes tear the curtains down (not pull, tear) and reveal the bagel, still bagel-sized, somehow filling the entire frame anyway, pulsing hard enough to crack the marble walls of the inner sanctum before sucking Evelyn, Jobu, and the audience through a single eye into the hot dog universe. Lees meer
We spent a good chunk of this episode on sacred inner sanctums across world religions, from the Jewish Holy of Holies to Hindu garbagrihas to Shinto honden, trying to figure out what the Daniels were drawing on when they designed this space (the building really was a Catholic cathedral, which explains a lot). We also dig into a cut script line where Jobu makes the binary explicit, telling Evelyn she can love and hate her at the same time now, and we walk through exactly how this bagel reveal differs from the one we glimpsed earlier in the film, including a continuity wrinkle in just how cracked those walls already were.

Minute 93 - We Put The Bagel Temple On A Bagel!
25 juni 2026 · 1 uur 2 min
Evelyn is marched the length of the Bagel Temple, a real downtown Los Angeles building that used to be a working Catholic cathedral, past rows of white-robed acolytes including one very recognizable face standing just behind her shoulder the whole time. Jobu hands her a Dr. Seuss-style picture book titled, in a nice bit of self-reference, Everything Everywhere All at Once, with the line "I am your daughter, your daughter is me" written in cheerful rhyme. Evelyn flashes back to a tense, unfinished moment in the Winnebago, and Jobu closes things out with a line that sounds wise enough to stop the scene cold: right is a tiny box invented by people who are afraid. Lees meer
We spend a good chunk of this episode on the temple itself, the former Cathedral of Saint Vibiana, now an event venue that's hosted music videos for Beyoncé and The Weeknd, and we correct ourselves on an earlier mistaken claim about which building this actually is. We also dig into a deleted draft of this scene that gives the silent acolyte standing behind Evelyn real dialogue, defending Jobu's worldview almost like recited scripture, and what it means that the finished film cut her lines but kept her devotion written all over her face. And we talk about why an earlier, more philosophically tangled draft of this confrontation, one that actually argues about whether Evelyn's understanding of the multiverse is correct, got simplified down to something much more emotional: Jobu doesn't need to win an argument about reality. She needs her mother to admit she got something wrong.

Minute 92 - We Put The Crack On A Bagel!
17 juni 2026 · 1 uur 22 min
Evelyn asks Jobu a real question — not an accusation dressed as a question, but an actual "why" with no predetermined answer waiting — and Jobu responds by inviting her to sit on the crack of the couch. They fall through. They land in the Alpha Winnebago, where Evelyn is a talking urn coughing on her own ashes, a retired Alpha Waymond is doing the crossword, and the big revelation is this: the Alpha Verse wasn't destroyed by Jobu. It was destroyed by verse jumping itself — by everyone finding whatever version of truth they wanted and then just fighting about it forever. The Daniels filmed that speech with a camera pushing in and the score swelling. We have thoughts. Lees meer
We dig into why that deleted scene was cut (it introduces infinite Alpha Verses, which would dissolve the stakes the film needs), what Evelyn's genuine open-ended question to Jobu actually costs her, and a long conversation about conspiratorial thinking, personal truth, and what it means when people stop caring whether something is real. Then the curtain opens on the Bagel Temple, and Jobu — dressed like alien royalty, per the script — is sitting there posed and barely containing her excitement, because the hero was never the obstacle. The hero was always the goal. Captain Hook letting Peter go. Father Marin finally arriving at the Macneil house. Evelyn, coming through the curtain, dressed like a peasant.

Minute 91 - We Put Happiness On A Bagel!
10 juni 2026 · 1 uur 6 min
Everything in This Minute Lees meer
In minute 91 of Everything Everywhere All at Once, Jobu tells Evelyn "you're like me" and invites a punch — which Evelyn throws, badly — triggering a strobe-lit freeze and a rapid montage of mother-daughter interactions: braiding hair, strangling each other, playing chess, riding a tandem bicycle, and doing something that might be Thriller. They both end up holding their noses, Waymond wanders in, and Jobu announces she just fell on the couch.
This Episode All at Once
We spend a lot of time in this room, and that is correct. The Wong family living space — the mirror from the film's very first shot, the unused exercise bike, the two VCRs attached to a flat screen, the possibly-bok-choy glass sculpture with a googly eye, the old cat carrier — turns out to be a place worth staring at for a long time.
We dig into the villain trope double-header happening across this and the previous minute — the "this is how the world really works" speech plus the "we're not so different, you and I" moment — and compare the motivation behind each, from Syndrome's "if everyone's super, nobody is" to Satan's forty-day argument with Jesus in Paradise Regained. We also track how the Jackie Chan script handles the same scene, with Joy's version landing entirely differently: warm, welcoming, genuinely excited that dad has finally caught up. Then there's the Happiness board game by Milton Bradley sitting on the shelf — real, from the 1970s, with six different themed paths (love, health, friendship, self-improvement) and no guaranteed way to finish any of them. And we discover that Joy's cat was named Bagel, which we are choosing to believe.
Everything Else
The rapid montage reads like a fight, but most of those frames are things you actually do with your daughter: braid her hair, play chess, ride a bike together. The strangling is less ambiguous.
Jobu's "la la la" after Evelyn's karaoke cover story is not in the script — it's a discovered line, either Stephani…

Minute 90 - We Put Piñatas On A Bagel!
3 juni 2026 · 51 min
Jobu is in the building — and she's smiling with a smile that is definitely not Joy's. From the laundromat, she drags Evelyn through a bamboo forest Wuxia standoff, a black-and-white prison corridor, a fully animated crayon universe where a stab wound erupts in candy, and finally a park where piñata versions of both of them hang from a tree until a blindfolded kid ends the minute. The funniest concrete beat: the bamboo branch Jobu tears from a tree transforms through roughly thirty objects — a tiny shark, a Minecraft torch, a novelty lollipop, a number one foam finger, and what appears to be an Oscar — while Evelyn stands there watching the light show reflect off her face. Lees meer
We go deep on the craft of this sequence: how the crayon animation is drawn fresh on new paper every single frame, why Evelyn accidentally yanks them into the cartoon world (and why that delights Jobu), and how a single bamboo plant just off camera and some well-placed fog turns a California park into a Wuxia film. We also deliver on a promise made in the very first episode of this show: the history of piñatas. Turns out the word derives from an Italian term for a clay pot, they arrived in Spain as a Lent tradition with seven points representing the seven deadly sins, and — here's the part that sent us into a spiral — they were originally Chinese, brought to Europe by Marco Polo, and made in the shape of New Year's animals. Evelyn's clay pot is leaking. Her mind is a piñata. We don't think the Daniels knew any of this, which makes it so much better.

Minute 89 - We Put EVERYWHERE On A Bagel!
27 mei 2026 · 1 uur 10 min
Part Two of Everything Everywhere All at Once begins here, and it sneaks up on you. Evelyn sits at her dining room table, holds up that receipt with the big black circle, and splits the screen cleanly in two — placing it in both piles at once. Warm piano kicks in, title cards appear, and then a buzzer cuts everything off: the Chinese choir has arrived, and right behind them is Joy. Lees meer
Before we get there, we finally deliver on last episode's promise and cover the Spaghetti Baby Noodle Boy deleted scene in full. An elbow macaroni rises through a boiling pasta pot — voiced by Jenny Slate — calling out for his spaghetti mother, asking whether he'll stick to the wall on Throwing Day, and wondering why God would give him a hole for no reason. The Daniels called it the hardest thing they ever cut. We connect Evelyn's response to him — "you're not gonna stick, you're a different kind of pasta" — to the first real flicker of her villain arc.
We also dig into what Evelyn's clean universe-split actually means (control of powers, wrong use of powers), break down the quantum suicide imagery in the receipt shot, and spend a loving amount of time on the Chinese choir: the late Waymond Lee reunited with Craig Ng in the doorway of the laundromat, with D.Y. Sao following along and Waymond Lee doing absolutely none of what Craig Ng is conducting.

Minute 88 - We Put Moquette On A Bagel!
20 mei 2026 · 1 uur 5 min
Hot Dog Deirdre is alone in the frame, back to the camera, crumpling to her knees as Evelyn makes her escape — and she doesn't even get her own shot for it. Then we're in a rain-soaked Hong Kong alley where Foxy Waymond catches a stumbling, multiverse-fried Evelyn and drapes his coat over her while she murmurs about her clay pot leaking. She pinches her temples like a bargain-bin psychic, ricochets through a rapid montage of universes (a courtroom, a bus with a very animated Borat lookalike, a fisheye outdoor shot), and lands back at the laundromat table, sweating, triumphant: "I did it." Lees meer
We go deep on the Hot Dog Universe's production design — turns out those are deliberately hot-dog-shaped blinds, the lampshades are structured like frozen frankfurters, and there's a casserole dish of Wonder Bread buns that may or may not be a romance prop. We trace Foxy Waymond's "just think happy thoughts" impulse (cut from the final film, present in the 2022 script) back to our Waymond's lifelong optimism, break down how the body-swap genre usually handles misunderstanding versus how this film complicates it, and introduce Spaghetti Baby Noodle Boy — a filmed-but-deleted character who will get their full due next episode.
Then Lester finds a Reddit thread about moquette — the algorithmically generated, stain-incorporating fabric on public transit seats — and Kynan connects it directly to the film's thesis about finding pattern and meaning in apparent randomness. It sounds unhinged. It works completely.

Minute 87 - We Put Randy Newman On A Bagel!
13 mei 2026 · 1 uur 11 min
Everything in This Minute Lees meer
In minute 87 of Everything Everywhere All at Once, Opera Evelyn collapses onstage and Gong Gong rushes to help, calling her name in Cantonese. She gets up on her own and pushes past him, exiting stage left. We get a final shot from behind the ornamental archway—a clear circle—with Evelyn leaving the circle and leaving Gong Gong alone on stage.
We follow Evelyn into the Teppanyaki kitchen where she's now Teppanyaki Evelyn. As she emerges through the partition, she looks at her uniform and her eyes catch something. Before we even see who she's looking at, we hear singing: a voice sings "we're a family," a deeper voice responds "culinarily," the first voice repeats it, and both sing "now we're cookin'." We pan out and reveal Chad—with a raccoon perched on his head pulling tufts of his hair to manipulate his arms and help him cook. It's Raccacoonie, voiced by none other than Randy Newman.
Evelyn mouths "Raccacooni?" in utter disbelief. Over her shoulder looking at them from the back, we hear Raccacoonie say "yeah, we make a pretty good team." They continue singing, but Evelyn has grabbed a knife sharpener. The noise makes our singers turn around in surprise—but it's Raccacoonie who notices first (he's the one controlling Chad). Chad turns and says "you can't tell anyone," but Raccacoonie makes an executive decision: "she's seen too much, you know what that means." Evelyn puts her hands up and begins backing away as Raccacoonie pulls Chad's hair saying "get her, get her." Chad's arms begin to flail and he says "I'm begging you," but his hand suddenly brandishes a spatula—a teppanyaki spatula that still makes that shink metal knife sound. Chad and Rackakoonie advance, and Evelyn, terrified, backs through the partition and into the hot dog universe.
This is our first callback to that universe since the laundromat scene. Evelyn puts her hands up to her eyes which have been blindfolded—and that's when we see the hot dog fingers. Then we're sudd…

Minute 86 - We Put THE END??? On A Bagel!
6 mei 2026 · 57 min
In minute 86 of Everything Everywhere All at Once, Jobu finishes singing "somewhere out there in all that noise." Waymond shakes Evelyn calling for help as the camera pulls up and away. Title card: "THE END." It fades. Next card: "written and directed by Daniels." Then "produced by Alexander Wong, Evelyn Quan." Cards retreat—no, WE'RE retreating from a movie screen. We see the theater audience. Two more cards: "Starring" then "Evelyn Quan." Cut to Wong Kar Wai Evelyn waking in her seat—she IS Evelyn Kwan (her maiden name, unmarried to Waymond here). She checks herself, can't believe she's alive. Everyone claps. Foxy Waymond puzzled, stops early: "interesting ending, but very sad." Evelyn bolts up: "where is she?" Shakes Waymond: "where's our daughter?" Before he answers she runs Cinderella-style up aisle to exit. Waymond stands: "daughter?" Evelyn pushes through doors—now Pizza Evelyn stumbling into street, car coming at her (license plate 2SAM564—common prop plate). Cut to Opera Evelyn falling onstage. Microphone-feedback sound (but more musical, unnameable). All the Evelyns are experiencing something. Lees meer

Minute 85 - We Put ANOTHER Death Scene On A Bagel!
29 april 2026 · 51 min
Jobu appears slow-clapping villain-style saying "how impressive" in fluent Mandarin (unlike Joy's broken Chinese). New punk magical-girl outfit: ghost buns, goth makeup, candy hearts, fluffy black leather, spiked collar, giant laser gun as cane. Evelyn declares "I'm reaching my full potential" in terrible boxing stance (fingers wrong, totally disconnected from kung fu). Screen cracks showing distressed Evelyns (Pizza, Opera, Cleaning Lady, Teppanyaki, Wong Kar Wai). Machinery strains, music stops, Evelyn vomits. Collapses. Jobu moves in: "damn it...so close." Overhead death-confirmation shot. Jobu closes her eyes, tells Waymond "I'll see you again soon," sings "somewhere out there" Judy Garland-style. Verse-map turned red. Lees meer
We debate applause semiotics via Wikipedia—slow clap as sarcastic disapproval, golf clap heckling, German knuckle-rapping, airline landing applause. Aliens would find hand-striking baffling. Slow clap implies emotions are "for show"—Jobu watching melodrama.
Stephanie Hsu's costumes don't dictate personality (script wanted Harley Quinn energy but Hsu plays serious/parental). Jobu chooses cutesy vs. serious regardless of outfit—millennial video game logic where skins don't determine playstyle. Evelyn's vomiting simultaneously funny (Family Guy wide-shot realness) and tragic (actual hero death). Most honest power-reaction ever—why don't Luke, Spider-Man, Iron Man puke using new abilities? Special Edition Obi-Wan should vomit when Alderaan explodes.
Jobu's wistful energy (not matching Waymond's panic) suggests Evelyn escaped rather than died.

Minute 84 - We Put A Death Scene On A Bagel!
22 april 2026 · 1 uur 13 min
Evelyn smiles at Alpha Waymond but he starts coughing, falling into her arms. Cut to Alpha Winnebago wreckage—Audrey and Peter dead holding hands. Alpha Waymond clutches Evelyn's urn as light floods in. Jobu appears in amoeba outfit (green tiger-striped spikes, feathery puffballs, bug-eye goggles). Single androgynous voice announces her arrival like reversed lullaby. She staggers-swaggers forward. Jobu bends, electronics flicker, she boops his nose with middle knuckle (priest blessing/fairy godmother gesture)—killing him. Voices carry Waymond away. He tries kissing Evelyn (ambiguous whether successful), eyes roll back, falls. Evelyn realizes he's dead. Our Waymond wakes asking about Raccoon Waymond. Evelyn shows no relief—mourning Alpha Waymond. "Alpha Waymond is dead." Lees meer
The middle-knuckle boop feels like toddler Joy pressing daddy's nose or religious blessing—callbacks to unseen history. Stephanie Hsu plays it completely serious (no cartoon delight), understanding she's orphaning herself. We debate Alpha Waymond's "chance" speech inspired by Ann Druyan/Carl Sagan—chance implies free will vs. fate's predetermined path. Statistical miracle of existence (Big Bang through mate selection via genetic scent diversity) makes randomness feel miraculous. Evelyn confronts Waymond's mortality for first time—she's lived denying death, contradicting Taoist impermanence acceptance. May push her toward Jobu's nihilism.
Script had Joy witnessing death—wisely cut. 2017 version resurrected Alpha Winona briefly—also cut for finality. Kiss ambiguity (Schrodinger's kiss) lets both interpretations exist simultaneously.

Minute 83 - We Put Super Smash Bros. On A Bagel!
15 april 2026 · 24 min
SWAT guy attacks, Evelyn deflects and pinky-punches him skyward with the Super Smash Brothers KO sound. He crashes back as Evelyn adds a ground-slam finisher. We dolly out revealing destroyed atrium carnage—flickering emergency lights mimicking fires, dust settling everywhere. Waymond catches collapsing Evelyn as she mutters "it's gonna be so hard to explain this." He removes his glasses—Alpha Waymond!—he's been watching her. Evelyn laughs genuinely proud: "Did you see how good I am?" declaring she'll defeat Jobu. Alpha Waymond warns her stupid plan pissed off the multiverse, then: "and it just might work." Lees meer
We debate the Smash Bros sound—immersion-breaking or perfect? It works because it's appropriately ridiculous without announcing itself, embedded in gamer subconscious. We explore rare genuine smiles in cinema (Professor Francisco Menendez's rom-com structure: save unguarded joy for right before tragedy or film's end), notice the romance-novel-cover two-shot aesthetic, and catch Evelyn's deflection when praised—she can't acknowledge being good at anything.
Script had Joy running up with Waymond but production wisely cut her for later story logic. The dolly-out feels like a scene break (commercial return aesthetic) despite being fight's end. Ke Huy Quan's "it just might work" channels 80s Goonies plucky-kid energy—his default state without glasses on.

Minute 82 - We Put Pinky Powers On A Bagel!
8 april 2026 · 47 min
Evelyn watches herself get chair-slammed by Gong Gong on screen while simultaneously experiencing it in the IRS. Gong Gong pulls a grenade pin saying "I'm sorry, Evelyn, we'll die together" with real emotion. Her headset warns "mind fracturing" as a fly lands nearby—she snorts it instantly without hesitation. Wong Kar Wai kung fu master teaches "even this pinky can be kung fu" as seasons pass deliberately out of order. Evelyn's muscular pinky (practical effect with air bladder) snaps chair legs, launching Gong Gong backward yelling "Pinky!" The grenade explodes, Alpha team surrounds her, and Evelyn demolishes the Edgelord and Jogger with pinky strikes. Lees meer
The fly-snorting replaced a script version where Evelyn caresses Gong Gong's leg—visually ambiguous and emotionally premature. The Daniels chose absurd comedy over early reconciliation, saving their relationship arc for the ending. We also catch the seasons training montage running deliberately wrong (summer-autumn-spring-winter-summer), implying years rather than one cycle.

Minute 81 - We Put The Last Butt Plug (We Promise!) On A Bagel!
1 april 2026 · 51 min
Evelyn bounces through universes—Wong Kar Wai theater, pizza universe (holding the Beefy 2X special sign!), tax office with receipts mysteriously appearing around her. The Le brothers unite with (not quite) matching butt plug trophies in synchronized menacing poses. Evelyn takes a crane stance, they attack in flight formation, and she spins like a windmill yanking both awards free mid-air. Brian crashes ass-first into a ladder (pixelated), Andy gets ceiling debris dumped on him. Evelyn drops the trophies in disgust as Gong Gong charges with an office chair. Lees meer
We discover the bombshell: Evelyn's Alpha universe death date is November 8, 2016—Trump's election day! This confirms our longstanding theory about millennials embracing multiverse stories after feeling stuck in the wrong timeline. The Daniels encoded this into the props themselves, validating every political tangent we've taken. It's profound and painful and perfect.
Beyond election date revelations, we decode "Pokai Michiko" (Cantonese for roughly "broke-ass loser Michiko"), notice Evelyn's green headset light signaling her breaking clay pot, and catch her unconsciously pulling receipts between universes—her first Jobu-like reality manipulation. The perpendicular camera angle creates a Street Fighter aesthetic, and the choir now heralds Evelyn's ascension.

Minute 80 - We Put A Butt Plug In A Butt On A Bagel!
25 maart 2026 · 49 min
Brian Le leaps spread-eagle onto James Wyatt's Auditor of the Month Award with an epic cinematic boom, his dignity preserved only by pixelation. This allows him to perform Shaolin chi-gathering moves—pointer finger pushing through invisible resistance—before they fight. Evelyn grounds herself with a foot-hop and palm-strikes Brian into an accordion fall. The minute ends with her flying through plastic tarps after a kick sends her briefly into the Wong Kar Wai theater universe where she spills the manager's popcorn. Lees meer
We extensively debate the pixelation—does censoring Brian's anatomy make it funnier than coy camera tricks? The pixelation paradoxically feels more real by acknowledging what's there instead of pretending it doesn't exist. We cite Roger Ebert's L-shaped bedsheet critique and debate whether Brian wore prosthetics, spiraling into Amanda Seyfried's Testament of Anne Lee prosthetic butthole story that may or may not have been necessary.
Beyond pixelation philosophy, we deep-dive Shaolin chi-gathering techniques supported by Western kinesiology research, explore how Brian suddenly becomes terrifying despite earlier comedy relief status, discuss construction-site backdrops as "steam and spark factory" action staging, and catch Joy's face between shock and laughter when Waymond admires mom's fighting.

Minute 79 - We Put ANOTHER Butt Plug On A Bagel!
18 maart 2026 · 38 min
Evelyn and Andy Le lose their powers and immediately start slapping each other like kids yelling "stop it, you stop it!" Joy figures out what happened while Waymond lags behind asking "what happened?" Andy requests a new jumping pad from Alpha Gong Gong, then unzips his pants cowboy-duel-style, revealing tighty-whities as he eyes the Auditor of the Month Award. The funniest beat? Evelyn stops mid-fight to shout an incredulous "WHAT?!" when Joy suggests blowing on Andy's nose to make him scream involuntarily. Lees meer
We debate whether Chad and Andy Lee were originally the same character, then spend quality time discussing test audiences. We realize the ADR clarity lines we initially mocked probably help everyone understand the movie, including us. The Daniels balance humor with exposition—Joy and Waymond narrate in simpler terms, making us feel smart while actually keeping everyone on the same page.
Beyond test audience philosophy, we explore Chekhov's butt plug theory (if you introduce a trophy in act one, someone must sit on it by act three), debate Mrs. Doubtfire's problematic ending, and notice practical details like broken keyboards still littering the floor. Michelle Yeoh's "WHAT?!" delivery captures both Mom Evelyn's disbelief and an action star genuinely confused by bizarre fight choreography.

Minute 78 - We Put Harry Shum Jr. On A Bagel!
11 maart 2026 · 52 min
Chad the teppanyaki chef winks at Evelyn, his raccoon-tail ponytail swishing with impossible liveliness. Then drumming interrupts—Andy Lee banging pipes on cubicles Warriors-style, calling her out for a gang fight. Evelyn faces him with a cake knife and wooden spoon, barely keeping up as the teppanyaki skills flicker in and out. Andy shatters her spoon, she throws a laptop, he swats it mid-leap and lands in a Spider-Man pose. The funniest beat? Evelyn's face after he destroys her laptop—equal parts amazed and offended, like "rude, I worked hard on that throw." Lees meer
We spend serious time in the Chad Trap, explaining why Harry Shum Jr.'s casting subverts the blonde Giga Chad meme. We discover hidden "Story of a Chef" lyrics in the soundtrack, debate Dr. Livesey's legendary phonk walk, and explore why old tech makes fight scenes feel expensive even when the laptops are discontinued junk.
The minute shows Evelyn's clay pot cracking harder—she peers between universes like looking under a curtain, her teppanyaki hands working while her face registers total confusion. Both fighters smash each other's earpieces, setting up whatever comes next.

Minute 77 - We Put Orange Soda On A Bagel!
4 maart 2026 · 44 min
Evelyn chugs orange soda to jump into a teppanyaki chef universe, her hands slicing and spinning eggs with professional precision while her face registers total confusion. She cuts Debbie's dog leash with a wooden spoon and cake knife, sending the pup ricocheting off a cubicle. Then she spins an egg timer like a spatula trick before launching it straight at Debbie's forehead—ding. The funniest beat? Waymond's ADR line explaining the whole movie: "I think when she does something weird it helps her fight. It gives her power." Lees meer
We debate artificial fruit flavors for a solid stretch—Lester ranks orange soda as second-worst (grape wins), while we learn the Gros Michel banana blight changed fake banana flavor forever. We theorize about Michelle Yeoh's soda-chugging practical effects, rant about teppanyaki etiquette (don't be on your phone during the volcano trick), and wonder if the egg-splattered customer is secretly Deirdre in disguise.
The minute shows Evelyn's clay pot cracking across universes. Her teppanyaki hands perform tricks she doesn't remember, then her boss delivers the ultimate threat: "I'm giving some of your shifts to Chad." Chad appears with his mysterious raccoon-striped ponytail, ready to steal the spotlight.

Minute 76 - We Put A Dog Fight On A Bagel!
25 februari 2026 · 44 min
Evelyn finishes her shield-spinning fight with a mom-tired hands-on-hips pose, then shepherds Waymond and Joy toward safety like they're late for a flight. But before she can catch her breath, Debbie the dog mom attacks—swinging her dog like a medieval meteor hammer. Evelyn dodges, traps the flying pup in the fridge, and unscrews a two-liter of orange soda while staring Debbie down with crazy eyes and her tongue out. The funniest beat? We hear the comical thud and angry bark as the toy dog bounces into the fridge, then Evelyn closes the door and just grins. Lees meer
We spend quality time defending why the dog-as-weapon sequence is hilarious despite being animal lovers. The obvious fakery and cartoon physics give us permission for the forbidden giggle—we know no real dogs were harmed, so the absurdity lands perfectly. Michelle Yeoh's comedic timing shines as she makes Mom Evelyn's version of action heroics distinctly her own: puffing cheeks, sticking out her tongue, and somehow making unscrewing a soda bottle look threatening.
We also dig into family crisis dynamics, comparing how the Wongs handle chaos to the McCallisters running late. Plus: whose birthday cake is sitting untouched in that break room? What's in Sierra's "do not touch" container? And why did Nathan bring Orange Fuzz soda to the party?

Minute 75 - We Put A Frog In The Throat On A Bagel!
18 februari 2026 · 45 min
Evelyn swallows a wooden frog figurine to jump verses, and Lester is very concerned about the choking hazard. She grabs a SWAT shield mid-fight and suddenly she's spinning it like a pizza sign, blocking seven attackers at once, and finishing in a Matrix-y kung fu pose! Lees meer
We dig into Michelle Yeoh's weapon training—how she carried the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon spear everywhere to make it an extension of her body, then did the same with the pizza sign and SWAT shield for this film. We track how Evelyn's power is growing but also cracking the multiverse: pizza-universe Evelyn pauses mid-spin, confused, sensing the rifts. It's thrilling and concerning at once, like Anakin getting really good at the Force while Obi-Wan nervously watches.
We also explore the $11.99 beefy 2X pizza universe (not Little Caesars, despite the Jackie Chan draft), Kynan's traumatic teen years as a dancing pig mascot who got drinks thrown at him, and why those finishing kung fu poses aren't just for show—they're about controlling momentum and chi.

Minute 74 - We Put OPERA On A Bagel!
11 februari 2026 · 33 min
On this episode, it's not over 'til the verse-jumping lady sings! We follow Evelyn as she verse jumps into a world where she is a blind opera singer. What tragic irony that THIS is the universe where Gong Gong is looking on Evelyn with love and pride...and she can't see it! We also got another "Carmen Coincidence" moment because the lyrics of this opera song could mirror Evelyn's feelings about coming back to her dream of singing after such a long time. This is also the minute where the student surpasses the master—Evelyn jumped to this universe all on her own, without anyone in her ear telling her what weird thing to do or even where to jump! Lees meer
We also found a Reddit thread where Jane Lui AKA Surrija—the actor singing the opera in the film—comments on her favorite version of this song!
