00:00:25
What's up, hybrids? Welcome back to another episode

00:00:27
of the Phantom Hybrid Podcast. This is Hanukkah and I'm here

00:00:30
with Anthony and we are discussing the 5th episode of

00:00:33
The Wheel of Time Season 3. And just quickly, I'm going to

00:00:38
put this disclaimer out there. It's going to be me and Anthony

00:00:42
for a couple of weeks because Mike is having surgery in the

00:00:48
morning. He's OK, but he does have to

00:00:50
have surgery. He's going to be on hiatus for a

00:00:52
couple of weeks. He did say that it was OK for me

00:00:55
to share that information just in case people started wondering

00:00:58
where the hell he went to. So if you guys could just on our

00:01:02
Facebook page, YouTube page, wherever you can find us.

00:01:05
If you would just leave some good wishes and good vibes from

00:01:08
Mike and tell him to hurry up and get well so he can get his

00:01:11
ass back on the show. So is it the?

00:01:14
Mike. Yep, what's up, Mike?

00:01:17
So with that being said, let's get into this episode 5 Again, I

00:01:26
would say these episodes are putting a lot of information

00:01:30
into this. What 1 I think this episode is a

00:01:33
hour and 4 minutes. They're putting a lot of

00:01:35
information in here. Yeah, this.

00:01:37
This is not necessarily a strong episode.

00:01:41
It's a info dump. It is.

00:01:45
It is exposition. Position galore.

00:01:49
What I mean we get to see almost everybody.

00:01:51
We don't see Leandron in this episode, but we do get to see

00:01:55
some stuff with the black, with the 2 black Asha that's at the

00:01:59
tower. We get to see Elida doing some

00:02:04
shady stuff. You get to see what's going on

00:02:06
with all of the Two Rivers people and I'm the.

00:02:11
Valda. Have I mentioned how much I want

00:02:17
this man to die? Have I?

00:02:21
I don't think I've mentioned it enough.

00:02:23
I want this man to die like the most painful horrible.

00:02:30
Any in even in the books when you're reading involved the

00:02:35
shows up it's like someone just scraping you across your

00:02:39
eyeball. Like do I have to read about

00:02:41
this dude again? Oh my God.

00:02:45
For something, and I will say this though, to give credit to

00:02:49
him, that you can leave such a mark on your audience with so

00:02:57
little screen time, 'cause we don't see Valda a lot in this

00:03:00
series, but every time he's on screen he makes an impression

00:03:06
and he makes you want to fucking kill him.

00:03:11
That is talent. Yeah, that is talent.

00:03:15
But we will get there. Let's start at the top of the

00:03:19
episode with Moraine, because she has the Sarconon and she's

00:03:25
playing around with it. She's she playing with something

00:03:32
I don't. I was, I was real.

00:03:34
I really felt like that first, that first scene was like really

00:03:38
double coded because she's playing with fire.

00:03:41
But it was also given very sensual vibes looking at it.

00:03:47
So if you remember using the one power can be like a drug, it

00:03:52
will can make you feel euphoric. And that's where these a lot of

00:03:57
untrained people to burning themselves out.

00:04:01
If since they made this change and they're not doing the

00:04:05
children call, they're going to do the Sarkoden and calendar.

00:04:10
The when people it's a little bit lower when people used to

00:04:15
make when they used to make these angry all especially the

00:04:18
sangria for their purpose. The sangria, the ones that

00:04:24
amplify your powers, make you stronger, or you can store 1

00:04:29
power to use for the later. The ones like calendar and the

00:04:34
Sarkonin, they usually put a buffer built in so you won't

00:04:41
burn yourself out. OK, the thing about the

00:04:44
calendar, it doesn't have a buffer and that's the same

00:04:49
thing. I think they're trying to show

00:04:51
us what the Sarkan in Sarkan in. They didn't mean I have a buffer

00:04:55
because she almost lost complete control.

00:04:57
She did, yeah. And this is Lorraine, who is

00:05:01
probably, like you said, the strongest in the one Power as

00:05:04
far as women aside from land fear, right?

00:05:08
Well of the non forsaken. OK of the non forsaken yeah, but

00:05:13
yeah, she was she was about to burn herself out and when LAN

00:05:16
came and caught her, it was just the way she was.

00:05:19
It's almost like it's almost like a high or almost like

00:05:24
afterglow, you know, post post orgasmic.

00:05:27
That's that's kind of the way she was.

00:05:30
And even LAN not having directly touched the source, but of

00:05:34
course, experiencing it through the bond, he could also feel

00:05:38
just kind of how it was when she asked him, she was like, what

00:05:42
did you feel? And he said, it's like a hunger

00:05:45
or thirst, but something deeper. And I was like, oh, so she's

00:05:49
experiencing what Rand told her he felt when he when he touched

00:05:54
the source. I was like, OK, now.

00:05:56
So she understands. But that high, you know, it's

00:06:02
kind of like somebody, you know, like I said, you're, you're,

00:06:05
you're in your afterglow and everything and somebody said

00:06:08
something really stupid and it just blows your high.

00:06:11
It blows that feeling because he was like, what did you see?

00:06:14
What did you see in the rings? And she's just like, and almost

00:06:19
like collapses in his arms. And I was just like, land.

00:06:22
You just had to come and ruin the moment.

00:06:24
She was feeling probably the best she has felt and who knows

00:06:28
how long because I don't even know how long they've been on

00:06:33
this journey now. Because when she talks to Gwen

00:06:36
later on in the episode and Gwen is talking about, you know,

00:06:39
they're talking about the dream walking.

00:06:42
And Gwen says something about it can be dangerous as she starts

00:06:46
laughing. And the Wayne is like what?

00:06:48
She said you're telling me about the dangers of dreams.

00:06:52
And I remember a few years ago I was telling you and I was like,

00:06:57
OK, she said. Years, plural.

00:06:58
So they've been on this journey for quite a while.

00:07:02
I think it's, I think we feel it's been at least a couple of

00:07:04
years since they left. Yeah.

00:07:06
And then we don't know how long it's been since they actually

00:07:08
left Harbor Lawn this particular time to come and do all of this.

00:07:12
So it, it feels like it feels like it's been a while, you

00:07:18
know, especially with just kind of Avienda, if you look at her

00:07:24
now being a wise one, her, I don't even want to say just her

00:07:29
face has changed. I don't know if they did

00:07:31
something with her makeup or is it just the way that they're

00:07:34
styling her hair. She almost looks like a

00:07:37
completely different person. I think she's also changed her

00:07:40
demeanor too, like in maybe her posture.

00:07:43
She's not walking like a warrior.

00:07:47
OK, OK. Yeah, yeah, she's, she's made a

00:07:52
change. OK, yeah, yeah.

00:07:55
And then you can kind of see I thought one of the funny things

00:08:00
that will, and I don't mean funny as in ha ha was funniest

00:08:03
and weird. You don't realize until the the

00:08:08
scene where Gwen is about to go sleep in the tent with the wise

00:08:12
ones. You don't realize until that

00:08:15
moment, like, wait, we have not seen Gwen and ran together like

00:08:19
at all. Like they've been in the same

00:08:22
area. They've been, you know,

00:08:26
communing with the IEO. But literally we have not seen

00:08:30
them exchange a word up until that moment in this in this

00:08:33
episode. I was like, wow, what a way to

00:08:37
kind of explain or kind of show this, this kind of deepening

00:08:45
drift, you know, between them and then with everything else

00:08:50
going on. But yeah, OK, so this place

00:08:57
where the to our dad live, what did he call it?

00:09:01
He. Cold rocks hold.

00:09:02
Cold rocks hold, right? Yeah, when I say their language

00:09:08
and the way they name things, it's almost like they want you

00:09:12
to make it a tongue twister. They want people like us who

00:09:16
talk about this show to have drinking games because that's

00:09:20
almost what it's like. I was like, I'm not going to

00:09:22
even try to say that because I feel like I'm going to.

00:09:24
I'm going to stumble over my words and something very wrong

00:09:28
is but. I mean a lot of their a lot of

00:09:35
their stuff is just descriptions.

00:09:37
They have. Become the location names.

00:09:40
Yeah, but but there also is like, like I said, you have all

00:09:44
of the rhyming names, you know, Milan and Gwaine Moraine,

00:09:50
Elaine, just, you know, and it's like when I'm sitting here and

00:09:54
I'm I'm editing our shows, I have found that I've had to like

00:10:00
really cut because there are a lot of times when I called Rand

00:10:04
Land and called Land Ran and I didn't even realize I was doing

00:10:08
it. But a lot of it is intentional.

00:10:11
I mean, he he did it on purpose. Randall Thor, Author Land,

00:10:17
Lancelot, You know Darwin, Sir Garwin in the green light.

00:10:22
Glad, glad. I mean all the things.

00:10:25
The Knights of the Round Table is all.

00:10:28
Yeah, you're right. You're right.

00:10:30
Because I never say that too. When we first started watching

00:10:33
the show and the character of E Grain came up and I was like E

00:10:38
grain because that's what I was thinking.

00:10:40
I was like, oh, OK, it's just similar.

00:10:42
And up until you mentioned it a couple episodes ago, I didn't

00:10:46
even like really put together the whole Arthur thing.

00:10:49
Well, I guess until Moraine mentioned Calador.

00:10:52
And I was like, that sounds familiar.

00:10:54
Excalibur, yeah. A sword in a stone and no one

00:10:58
has got has has been able to get it out in 3000 years.

00:11:03
We should have added this to our Arthurian legends list, but of

00:11:09
course we didn't know it at the time.

00:11:10
But yeah. It it the so yeah, the names do

00:11:16
sound funny and weird, but he it was very intentional.

00:11:21
Yeah, yeah. So we get here to where the Tar

00:11:25
Dad kind of congregate, and I tell you, I thought it was

00:11:29
nothing but rocks. I was like, OK, so they just

00:11:32
live in the rocks. And I mean, their clothes are

00:11:34
kind of camouflaged because when they started popping up

00:11:37
everywhere, I was like, where the hell did they come from?

00:11:40
And then when you have the overview shot, you see that

00:11:44
they've actually made homes and dwellings inside these rocks.

00:11:49
And I was like. Yeah, they actually do live some

00:11:53
rocks. It's like, I like this, this is

00:11:56
cool. But so yeah, so we get to meet

00:12:00
Ruark's other wife or I don't know, Bear's other wife because

00:12:04
she's saying more in tune with Bear then she did with Ruark.

00:12:08
Like, OK, but one of the things I liked about this scene is you

00:12:17
kind of see, I feel like you see a little bit of a maturity in

00:12:21
Rand now as opposed to before he went into Ruidian.

00:12:27
Because when the little girl comes up to him and she asks him

00:12:30
if he's the car car, he doesn't have the usual or I won't even

00:12:35
say usual. But Rand, I would say because of

00:12:40
his age, I never looked at him as mature or or thoughtful when

00:12:44
it comes to certain things. But this one is kind of like,

00:12:48
OK, she's a young one. I need to kind of maybe figure

00:12:53
out how to answer her differently than I would if an

00:12:55
adult had come to ask me or, you know, if someone like Ibn that

00:12:58
came out. So you thank you to Karakan.

00:13:01
You know, he kind of slowly rolls up his sleeve and he shows

00:13:05
her the heads of the tattoos and he says, I am.

00:13:08
And I was like, OK, he's really embracing it now.

00:13:11
Like he's he's made his peace with the fact that this is his

00:13:16
life now. And then in the split second,

00:13:20
she makes a face and he starts chasing a little girl.

00:13:22
And then you see the other little kids chase them.

00:13:25
And I was like, OK, this is interesting because you see

00:13:28
Gwen's face. She's looking at him.

00:13:31
And the look on her face is kind of like regret and sadness

00:13:36
because she knows if they had stayed in Two Rivers, this is

00:13:39
what he wanted his life to be. You know, he wanted to be a dad.

00:13:42
He wanted to have children. They they had that conversation

00:13:45
way early in the first season and that's not what she wants.

00:13:49
And then Bear looks at her and tells her he was, she was like

00:13:53
your days of looking, you know, looking after him are over.

00:13:57
It's time for you to come do what you're supposed to do.

00:14:01
Like your pet. Your paths are not aligned.

00:14:03
Again, people telling y'all, y'all not going to be together.

00:14:06
Y'all don't need to be together. Y'all are.

00:14:10
Yeah. The the thing about Rand,

00:14:12
though, is before he went to Ruidian, I think he had already

00:14:17
kind of made peace with the fact that he was the Dragon Reborn,

00:14:21
and he knew that he needed to do this.

00:14:24
And after experiencing Rubidian and learning about his blood

00:14:29
history and in the history of the IU, that's a lot of

00:14:34
responsibility. So he's had some time to think

00:14:37
about it and contemplate on it. Yeah.

00:14:39
So he can't. He knows that he can't be that

00:14:42
boy from the Two Rivers anymore. He has more.

00:14:45
Yeah, it's like he accepted it before Ruidian, but he was

00:14:49
still, you could tell he was still kind of angry about it.

00:14:53
Or he and he was maybe a little bit still unsure about about his

00:14:58
place. Like he knew he was a Dragon

00:15:00
Reborn, but he didn't really know what he needed to do or or

00:15:05
what the significance of that was.

00:15:09
Because this being the Dragon Reborn and understanding the

00:15:14
point of the ideal are two separate things.

00:15:18
Yes. Like he didn't know really what

00:15:20
to expect, what this was about. He just knew he needed to do it.

00:15:24
And now we're seeing him now, after he has.

00:15:26
OK, not only am I the Dragon Reborn, but I am also the Kar

00:15:29
Khan. And not only that, I am also I

00:15:34
like, I, I think I am I ill in a way that he didn't think about

00:15:38
it before, like because he got to see his mother and not just

00:15:42
his mother, his father, that important piece, because he

00:15:46
didn't know about his father, you know, but also going back to

00:15:50
the last episode when he and Land were having a conversation,

00:15:54
you know, Land keeps playfully calling him sheepherder when

00:15:58
they're training. And there was they had a

00:16:02
conversation. They were Lamb was asking him

00:16:05
about something about being something.

00:16:07
And oh, not being I, I'll, because he was saying, you know,

00:16:14
I know I'm, I know I'm from here.

00:16:16
And I mean, I know I'm, I, I'll, I know their blood runs through

00:16:19
my veins, but this will never be home for me.

00:16:22
But, you know, he also mentioned that the Two Rivers is not home

00:16:26
any anymore, even like he doesn't belong.

00:16:29
And Lance said, do you think it could be, you know, and Ran

00:16:33
said, you know, it would be nice to find something that I am, you

00:16:38
know, that I can be. Because at that point he didn't

00:16:41
know who he was or what he was. So I think not just a little

00:16:47
anger about this whole destiny thing being placed on him, but I

00:16:51
think also just the unsurety, the anxiety about it.

00:16:56
And it just seems like ever since Ruidian now, he knows who

00:17:01
he is. He knows fully where he came

00:17:03
from. He knows, like they said, he

00:17:06
understands his ancestors and and, you know, maybe not

00:17:11
understands, but he knows the journey that they've been on.

00:17:15
And there's just something about him.

00:17:16
There is a peace in his presence now.

00:17:20
Like, OK, I've accepted it even when later on in the episode

00:17:25
when it's clear that things are not good between him and and

00:17:30
Gwen, Like it's very strange when you see them on the on the

00:17:35
screen together. And when she leaves the tent, he

00:17:38
just kind of he puts his head in his hand and he kind of is like,

00:17:42
because I think even at that point, he realizes that's not

00:17:49
going to be the way it was. Like, OK, yeah, I think our time

00:17:53
together might be at an end because I'm clearly on one path

00:17:58
and she's clearly on another. You know, even though that's not

00:18:02
we don't. Again, we only get the one scene

00:18:05
with them in this episode. So we don't know where things

00:18:09
are going, but it's clearly it it it's very clear that they're

00:18:13
they're stressed. They're not, they're not, I

00:18:18
don't know. They're not flowing like they

00:18:19
usually do. So and you see her still kind

00:18:23
of, I felt like kind of forcing it because when she was getting

00:18:27
ready to go to the tent and he was like, you're leaving.

00:18:30
And she was like, well, the wise ones want me to sleep in their

00:18:33
tent so we can practice some more.

00:18:35
She was like, I can stay. He was like, no, you go.

00:18:39
And again, that goes back to, for me, the first season, you

00:18:44
know, I had a conversation about them being teenagers, but them

00:18:48
acting more mature than most teenagers we see in

00:18:51
relationships in in media these days, because they had a

00:18:56
conversation about their future when she was like, OK, I know we

00:18:59
talked about doing this, but I think I want to go be a wisdom.

00:19:02
And if I'm a wisdom, I can't get married.

00:19:04
And he was just like, I know. And it's like they had a moment

00:19:07
to mourn what could have been and that was it.

00:19:12
Like they didn't argue about it. They had some words later on

00:19:15
about it. But it was never, you know, just

00:19:19
the kind of blow up teenage or young adult arguments that we

00:19:23
always see in relationships with you.

00:19:25
You want this more than men. You don't want to be with me.

00:19:27
But we didn't see any of that, right?

00:19:30
So I just have a feeling now again, you kind of see that

00:19:36
understanding between them, like they are still on the court, but

00:19:41
just in a different way. And it makes me sad because I

00:19:46
like them two together. I thought they were cute.

00:19:48
But at the same time, I do believe that they have outgrown

00:19:53
each other. And then of course, there's the

00:19:55
fact of grand, you know, Sneer Land beer and land beer trying

00:20:02
to kill E Gwang. That's that's a problem.

00:20:05
That's a. Problem.

00:20:06
Yeah, but it ain't going to be a problem too because Gwen found

00:20:14
the truth out now. But you know what?

00:20:17
That's what happens when you go poke around and focus dreams

00:20:20
when you're not supposed to. That's so invasive and I that's

00:20:24
one of the things that I think bothers me about this whole

00:20:27
whole dream Walker thing because landfill, we know she's going to

00:20:31
go on other people's dreams because she's forsaken.

00:20:33
We're not expecting her to do anything good.

00:20:35
We're not expecting her to respect boundaries, We're not

00:20:39
expecting her to ask consent. We're not expecting that from

00:20:42
her. These people are ants to her.

00:20:45
Right she don't give a fuck, I don't care but for E Gwen to do

00:20:50
it even though she had innocent intentions.

00:20:52
She just wanted to check on her friends and see if her friends

00:20:54
were OK while she was trying to give Morena Suwan some privacy.

00:20:59
Yeah, but obviously, obviously they didn't teach her etiquette,

00:21:03
you know, just going other people's dreams.

00:21:05
But I think it was a warning to say that if you and someone

00:21:08
else's dreams, they are the ones that have the power.

00:21:13
Yeah, but also what did Bear tell her?

00:21:15
Bear and Mullane both told her you are not to go and to tell

00:21:19
her on Riyadh without us telling you that you can go because it's

00:21:24
too dangerous. And I mean.

00:21:28
Telling around Riyadh is dangerous, but being someone

00:21:30
else's dream is very dangerous. Yeah, but OK, so this is the,

00:21:36
this is the look here. Here's a lesson time because I'm

00:21:41
still kind of confused about. So when you're in your dream,

00:21:47
that's kind of like one level and then Teleronriad is a

00:21:51
different level. They're not necessary, they're

00:21:54
not the same thing. They're very separate so.

00:21:58
But but some people can inadvertently enter Teleronriad

00:22:05
in their dreams, but they're only there briefly, OK?

00:22:08
Like when you saw Ewing walking around to around Riyadh and she

00:22:12
was seeing bits and pieces. Yes, I did OK.

00:22:16
Those are people touching to around Riyadh from their own

00:22:19
dreams. That's what I was wondering

00:22:21
because I was like, it's not like at first when we first saw

00:22:25
the shadow running, I was like, OK, Landfill is playing with

00:22:29
her. And then you hear like children.

00:22:32
That was like, I don't think she would take the form of a child

00:22:36
to kind of terrorize Gwen. And then you see the the one

00:22:40
kind of like a almost like a spectral form playing with the

00:22:44
doll. And then you see, you see the

00:22:46
little boy and it's like he's there for a second and then he's

00:22:49
not. And I was like, oh, OK, So the

00:22:51
little boy just kind of stepped in there and he stepped back

00:22:54
out, but I wasn't sure because I was like, OK, is this something

00:22:57
children can do? But I guess, like Bear said,

00:23:00
everyone can touch tell. What did she say?

00:23:06
Hello, Everyone can touch Teller on Teller on Riyad, but not

00:23:10
everyone has the ability to enter.

00:23:13
She doesn't say anything about skill.

00:23:16
There's no skill level involved in this.

00:23:18
There's no, I guess, no age limit involved.

00:23:21
It's just kind. Of like it doesn't involve, it

00:23:23
doesn't involve channeling. Yeah, it's just kind.

00:23:26
Of we. Have but you know, if, if, if

00:23:29
it's in you, you just kind of step in and oh, I'm not supposed

00:23:32
to be here. Let me come back out.

00:23:34
But they don't know that they're doing this.

00:23:37
Yeah. So yeah.

00:23:39
Oh, I I did say I did say it doesn't involve channelling, but

00:23:44
if you have certain Tarangi all and can channelling, you can

00:23:51
because it it gives you ability to do it.

00:23:54
Those those were big Tehran graals in the book Song Grip.

00:23:59
Tear for the guys, massage for the women.

00:24:02
No, no, no. Tehran graals are are objects

00:24:07
that you channel power into for a specific purpose.

00:24:10
Oh, OK. OK.

00:24:12
To the weaving. OK.

00:24:14
You're going to learn about that in the season finale, but

00:24:17
there's shortcuts into weaving. Wait, how do you know what I'm a

00:24:21
learn about in the season finale?

00:24:23
Is it? Is it because?

00:24:24
Obvious from the promo that there's there's a you.

00:24:28
Whatever anyway. OK.

00:24:29
No, I'm just saying because, you know, I just thought about it.

00:24:31
I haven't seen the promo yet so OK.

00:24:33
So I'm trying. OK well so I'm trying to this.

00:24:36
Even when I read the book, this was still hard for me.

00:24:40
OK. Sangria can I think of them as

00:24:43
like batteries. OK.

00:24:46
OK, either batteries or amplifiers.

00:24:50
Saddle and bone OK. Yeah, amplifiers, Tehran Graal

00:24:57
are objects that were created by the one Power with a specific

00:25:01
purpose, like the oath rods, the Tehran Graal.

00:25:06
OK. The the the painting thing that

00:25:10
Swan and Marine use right to get into Teleran Riad are

00:25:16
tarrangrial. You channel into them and it

00:25:19
does something specific. OK, so something like calendar

00:25:24
it does. It is more like an amplifier.

00:25:27
So it's a sangrial? OK.

00:25:30
The sarcanem is an amplifier. It's a sangrial.

00:25:33
OK. The the Sean Chan bands and

00:25:41
collars are tarrangrial because they're channelling for a

00:25:45
specific thing. OK, OK.

00:25:49
I don't know why we're on this conversation, but yeah, because.

00:25:53
I'm still trying to, yeah. They can you be used to enter

00:25:58
the dream world, which is what we saw Swan and Marine use.

00:26:03
They're using that to go into the dream world together.

00:26:07
OK, yeah, but this time she got a Gwaine to take her and I was

00:26:13
like for her to go to East Gwaine and ask Wayne.

00:26:17
OK, so they're teaching you how to do this.

00:26:19
OK, so can you do it with a pastor?

00:26:21
Like can't can can you take me somewhere?

00:26:23
I was like, they have to have been there for at least a few

00:26:27
months because I don't think Moraine would ask Ewaine to do

00:26:30
that if Ewaine was still just in the learning stages.

00:26:35
Yeah, it had to be at least at least a month or two too.

00:26:38
Dangerous. At least a month, at least a

00:26:40
month, at least at the minimum a month.

00:26:43
And if she was doing it every night.

00:26:44
And that's a lot because in the book, in the book, it takes a

00:26:48
while. And I think they're just

00:26:50
speeding up the process for the show here.

00:26:52
Is that, is that why Milan? Because even when we see her

00:26:56
trying it for the first time, you know, she she wakes up and

00:27:02
tell her on Riyadh and they're telling her they were like,

00:27:06
yeah, you know, there are things that can hear that can hurt you.

00:27:10
And Bear says there's things that can eat you, that can eat

00:27:13
you up. Bear says there's things that

00:27:16
can shatter your heart, and then I think Elaine says there are

00:27:20
things that can eat your heart. Yeah.

00:27:23
Oh, reverse because Elaine said the other one and then Bear said

00:27:27
the one about eating. But then when she does that, all

00:27:31
of a sudden Dwayne's clothing changes and she was like, what

00:27:37
happened? And Bear said you were feeling

00:27:39
scared so you needed to protect yourself.

00:27:41
So you put on a suit of armor. She said basically anything that

00:27:44
you think of and hear it can happen.

00:27:48
So then she changes into some regular clothes and she lays

00:27:53
back down and or no, she doesn't.

00:27:56
They tell her about the dangers of teller on Riyadh, but they're

00:28:00
like, but this is your, you know, this is your, you know,

00:28:03
when you're in your dreams, you control your dreams.

00:28:06
This person who is stalking you, if she's in your dreams, you can

00:28:10
control that. You can, you can kick her out if

00:28:13
you want to. It's just a matter of doing

00:28:15
that. If you feel in danger and you

00:28:19
need to be somewhere else, you just think of somewhere else and

00:28:22
you will be somewhere else. And then that's when all of a

00:28:25
sudden she disappears and she ends up in the abandoned streets

00:28:30
of Tarba line in her mind. But then that's where Lanfir

00:28:33
finds her. And Lanfir at this point looks

00:28:37
at her face to face because I think when a Gwen first saw her

00:28:42
and there was a shadow, I think she thought she was seeing Rena.

00:28:46
And then Lanfir comes to her and she was like, I'm so glad you're

00:28:50
here. She's basically like has her in

00:28:52
a chokehold. And then that pin drops in the

00:28:56
real world, she wakes up and they're like, Oh my God, you are

00:29:00
really being stalked by what did they call her the shadow soul?

00:29:03
The shadow soul. They were like, you really are

00:29:07
being stalked by one of them. And Iguana is like, what is the

00:29:10
shadow soul? They're like you wetlanders call

00:29:13
them forsaken. And Iguana was like, shit, they

00:29:19
found me like yeah, that was been keeping that was been

00:29:23
keeping track of y'all. I don't know if she knew where

00:29:26
Dwayne was, but she definitely knows where Randy is because I

00:29:30
think she said that she said something to him about the IO

00:29:32
waste in the last episode, right?

00:29:35
I think so. Yeah, because she was.

00:29:37
Like. It's smart.

00:29:40
But I'm just kind of, I don't want to say confused, but she

00:29:46
had already been in a Dwayne's dreams as Rena, so she's always

00:29:53
kind of know where she was. She's always going to her dreams

00:29:56
anyway. So why was this special?

00:30:01
Why was it saying different? Maybe because before it, Gwen

00:30:07
had no idea of what was going on.

00:30:09
And now because she's being trained and she's being more

00:30:12
aware, maybe that's why it seemed different and, and it I

00:30:17
don't know, maybe Lanfier is like, OK, so now that you know

00:30:21
the difference, I don't need to hide my face anymore.

00:30:24
Like she's she's basically challenging E Gwen.

00:30:29
You know, she's she's jealous of E Gwen because of Rand.

00:30:32
And I mean, she had her big declaration to Rand in this

00:30:36
episode. She told Rand, I love you.

00:30:38
I love you for the for the the man you are, the boy you are as

00:30:43
much as who you were before she So she's all in.

00:30:52
So now she's to the point where she's like, OK, you know what?

00:30:55
I'm going to stop hiding behind this other face this girl is

00:30:58
scared of. I'm going to give her something

00:30:59
to really be scared of. Because again, at this point, if

00:31:03
Wayne doesn't even know about Celine slash land fear, she does

00:31:09
now. But you know, because she sees

00:31:13
it in his dream at the end of the episode.

00:31:16
And I think maybe even for her more horrifying than the fact

00:31:22
that it's land fear and she she realizes this is the woman

00:31:26
that's been stalking her. But again, she's in Rand's

00:31:30
dream. So this is what Rand is saying

00:31:33
in his dreams. This is what Rand is desiring at

00:31:36
this point. Yeah, but OK, so we know the

00:31:41
truth. But this is the devil advocate

00:31:44
here for Rand. If Lanfield has or if this

00:31:49
shadow soul who's been stalking you has been doing this to you

00:31:53
in your dream, how do you know she's not manipulating him in

00:31:59
his dream? She.

00:32:01
Yeah, she doesn't. I thought that it was Renna.

00:32:03
It looked like Renna. Lanfield has the same haircut as

00:32:10
E Wayne. Oh yeah, it's.

00:32:11
The same hairstyle? How do you not know that maybe

00:32:15
she looks like? Yeah.

00:32:19
Wayne to him, you know what I'm saying?

00:32:20
Like, how does she? She jumped to a conclusion.

00:32:23
But again, I know that. Yeah.

00:32:25
Yeah. And but you're in his dream.

00:32:27
He's dream. He could be dreaming about you.

00:32:29
And it's land fear. But he didn't know it's land

00:32:32
fear. Yeah, now we know different,

00:32:34
but. We know different, but I'm

00:32:36
saying she don't know different. Yeah, but you know, I think the

00:32:42
sad thing about that whole interaction, I think is, you

00:32:48
know, all this time that laughing and ran have been in

00:32:51
this, you know, they've been in Teleron Riyadh or she's been in

00:32:54
his dreams and there's been the almost touching and you can kind

00:32:58
of feel the longing because he's like, OK, yes, I'm with E Gwen,

00:33:01
but I still feel attracted to her.

00:33:03
I still care about, you know, that I'm talking about land

00:33:07
fear. And it's it's almost as if in

00:33:10
this episode when he finally kind of relents and kisses her,

00:33:16
I was thinking about what you said about about land fear and

00:33:21
Lou's Theron and about how she only wanted him for his power.

00:33:27
And he didn't feel like, you know, that that wasn't what he

00:33:31
wanted out of the relationship. Like, he was into her because

00:33:35
she was her. She was into him because she

00:33:37
wanted the power. And he broke up with her because

00:33:40
of that. I was getting kind of sort of

00:33:43
maybe opposite vibes with this because I think Rand understands

00:33:48
that if Gwen is probably destined for something

00:33:51
different, that does not include him.

00:33:54
And then here you are. You have this one person next to

00:33:57
you that you do care about who is telling you, I love you, I

00:34:02
want to be with you. I love the person that you are

00:34:06
now as much as I love the person that you were before.

00:34:11
And it's just kind of like one of those things where he's just

00:34:13
like, this is this is what I want.

00:34:15
I want someone to love me and see all of me and accept all of

00:34:18
me. And I feel like, I do feel like

00:34:20
with E Gwen, sometimes he holds himself back because he doesn't

00:34:24
want her to look at him in a certain way, you know?

00:34:29
There's another possibility. What's the other possibilities?

00:34:33
He's playing a dangerous game he's trying to manipulate or

00:34:38
Forsaken. That goes back to that

00:34:41
conversation he had with Moraine in the bedroom way back when.

00:34:48
She was like we need her to help us when he drink, when he went

00:34:53
to sleep. Yes, when they went Kyrie in,

00:34:58
you think he would be. Well, you know what?

00:35:02
Yeah. Yeah, I'm, I'm thinking about

00:35:05
what what Moraine said to him last episode about this

00:35:09
arrogance will get and she didn't finish the thing.

00:35:12
But yeah, this arrogance will get you killed if he if he has

00:35:16
gotten that comfortable in knowing that he is the Dragon

00:35:20
Reborn and knowing he has certain things to do.

00:35:23
Because I'm pretty sure that what we saw love his visions and

00:35:28
Ruidian, that's probably not the only thing he saw, right?

00:35:33
And we don't know we. Know it's not.

00:35:35
We know it's not the only thing he saw because he was there for

00:35:38
seven days. Right.

00:35:40
But also we don't see how he got how he got Moraine out of the

00:35:45
rings. So I don't know, like I don't

00:35:49
know. She had to.

00:35:50
He couldn't. He couldn't take her out.

00:35:52
She had to, yeah, on her own. OK, that's what I was going to

00:35:55
ask because I was like, I don't know if he's able to get into

00:35:58
the rings. Like they never specifically

00:36:00
say, OK, so Rand, you you're going in the glass columns to

00:36:05
see the, you know, all the memories of your ancestors, but

00:36:10
you can only go in the glass columns.

00:36:12
Then he couldn't go in the ring so.

00:36:15
Because if a man, remember I told you, if a if a man touches

00:36:19
the the women's collar and bracelets, not instantly both of

00:36:25
them the same thing. If he had stepped into the

00:36:28
rings, he would have died. OK.

00:36:31
If she had went into the glass columns, she would have died.

00:36:34
OK. So when Latrice had died made

00:36:36
that she she very specifically separated those two because we

00:36:40
saw her make the columns, but we didn't see her place the rings

00:36:44
there. So I'm assuming that's a later

00:36:48
edition. Yeah, those, those would be

00:36:52
Tehran Griell. OK.

00:36:55
And before and they have specific purposes.

00:36:58
OK, OK. But yeah, OK.

00:37:02
So that's interesting to think that Ran might be trying to

00:37:05
manipulate. Because think about it, she is.

00:37:08
He knows at this point that she is now the most powerful of the

00:37:13
Forsaken. Because the Shamale is dead if

00:37:17
he can get her on his shy. Male is dead without.

00:37:21
Hesitation. As far as they are concerned,

00:37:24
he's dead. Died so many.

00:37:28
He died so many times in the books.

00:37:30
Whatever OK having having her on his side or at least at least

00:37:40
having the same goal and objective then that gives him

00:37:47
hit a leg up on the other forsaken.

00:37:50
OK, all the ones who want him dead.

00:37:54
Yeah, well. We do.

00:37:56
Know all of them except for her. Yeah, that's what I was going to

00:38:00
say. We do know for a fact I don't.

00:38:03
I don't think she wants him dead like I don't.

00:38:05
I don't see telling somebody I love you.

00:38:07
I want to be with you. I want you to.

00:38:09
Die. She doesn't want to.

00:38:10
Be like those. Those sentences don't go

00:38:12
together. So yeah.

00:38:14
Yeah, So OK, it's her, her objectives.

00:38:18
I know these were unclear. Her objectives are very apparent

00:38:22
at the moment. Like she's also so many.

00:38:25
She's very manipulative too. So this is my.

00:38:30
I don't. I don't know if I want to call

00:38:32
it a theory, but I did think about this.

00:38:34
Go ahead and call it a theory, and Honor might just call it a

00:38:37
theory. So in the last episode when she

00:38:43
was in Rand's dream and she was talking about a way to break her

00:38:47
oaths, she mentions the Sarconan.

00:38:53
Now Moraine has it and we also saw a whole bunch of visions of

00:39:00
Moraine getting her throat slit by land fear and I'm just kind

00:39:06
of wondering if LAN fear manipulates.

00:39:09
I know she kind of told Ran she was like, oh, so you came to the

00:39:12
IO waste that was smart, blah blah blah.

00:39:15
But I'm wondering if maybe she had a part in that because she

00:39:20
wanted she know she couldn't go in there and get it.

00:39:22
I mean, I don't know what kind of I don't know if forsaken can

00:39:26
enter Ruidian or what it would do.

00:39:28
I would assume that something is protecting it, but I'm just

00:39:34
wondering if she kind of manipulated the situation so

00:39:38
that Moraine would go in and get it and then she's going to try

00:39:41
to take it from Moraine. That's a good theory, I don't

00:39:49
know. I just, I just wonder because I

00:39:51
was like, it seems like such a coincidence that she mentions

00:39:56
this and she talks about, OK, yeah.

00:39:58
So if a woman gets the Sarcona and, you know, a man who can

00:40:03
channel, gets calendar, then we can do this.

00:40:06
We can kill the Forsaken. And then all of a sudden the

00:40:09
next episode we learned about the Sarcona and Moraine has the

00:40:14
Sarcona and she takes it out of Ruidian.

00:40:17
Like, I don't know if she was supposed to do that.

00:40:20
I don't know if the Zarconia was supposed to stay in there.

00:40:23
I you know, it's again, because it's not something I'm familiar

00:40:27
with. I don't know what the rules are

00:40:29
regarding those song real. Like was that supposed to stay

00:40:34
in the tree because every vision of Rand.

00:40:38
All of that is original. Oh, OK.

00:40:42
OK, so I was going to say, every vision we saw of Rand, we saw

00:40:46
the tree and we saw Sarcona right there in the heart of the

00:40:50
tree. Yeah, that's all the reason.

00:40:53
And I'm sure Latrice said. I put words around it just like

00:40:56
the draft, just like blue standard put words around

00:40:58
calendar, OK? So even if even if Lynn Free had

00:41:04
figured out where it was, she probably couldn't get to it.

00:41:06
Yeah. She probably couldn't get it.

00:41:09
She probably I would. I wouldn't be surprised if she

00:41:17
knew what Latrice that I had done, sending out all the the

00:41:24
Sangreal and turn growl with the with the IO to be hidden right,

00:41:29
But she wouldn't have known where they went, because

00:41:32
remember Latrice that I didn't tell them to go to the IO waste.

00:41:37
They made that decision on their own.

00:41:39
Yeah. So at best, she knew it was

00:41:42
still out there in the world. She wouldn't know where it was

00:41:47
and because by the time they did it, she had been sealed away.

00:41:50
Yeah, yeah. But I'm wondering if if Moraine

00:41:56
had left the Sarcona in the tree, because remember, she

00:42:00
found it and put it in her pocket right before she saw the

00:42:03
rings and went into the rings. I'm wondering if she had left

00:42:07
the Sarcona in the tree and then gone into the rings, would her

00:42:10
future have changed? That's I think that's the thing

00:42:15
that was making me think because I'm like.

00:42:17
That's the one thing we didn't see in the visions we want was

00:42:21
the Sarcona. Yeah, but we saw Landfair

00:42:23
killing her a lot of times, and we know Landfair wants the

00:42:26
Sarcona for whatever reason. She claims she wants to be able

00:42:30
to break her Dark host, but maybe that's not the reason why

00:42:32
she wants. And maybe she wants, I mean, she

00:42:35
could want to be more powerful than the Dark 1.

00:42:38
I don't know if the Sarcona would allow her to do that, but

00:42:42
we could have been seeing just the result of, you know, kind of

00:42:45
cause and effect. OK, you take the Sarconan.

00:42:48
So now the person who wants the Sarconan probably more than you,

00:42:51
you see 1000 thousand visions of her killing you.

00:42:55
But if you hadn't touched it and then went to the rings, would

00:43:00
you have seen your future differently?

00:43:01
Like she tells LAN in this episode, she was like, I saw it.

00:43:06
I don't I'm not at the last battle.

00:43:08
And she was like if if I him alive ran and every vision that

00:43:13
I saw where I lived, Rand died. And the only way that Rand will

00:43:18
win is if I am not there. Now I did notice she did she

00:43:23
didn't say that she when she said that particular statement.

00:43:28
I think when she said if Rand is to live the last battle, I won't

00:43:35
be there or something like that. I noticed she didn't say she was

00:43:38
dead in that one. Did you say I didn't make it to

00:43:42
the last battle or I'm not at the last battle?

00:43:46
I think she just said I'm not at the last battle, but I don't

00:43:51
know. She was drunk off that IU

00:43:57
oozling oolong whatever. It is.

00:44:00
The, the, the IEO moonshine. But yeah, so I was just kind of

00:44:05
wondering again, it's, it's one of those things where I'm, I'm

00:44:08
taking it all of this information and my mind is going

00:44:12
like a mile a minute trying to figure out like, OK, so am I

00:44:17
looking at the story that they're telling us and this

00:44:21
actually what they're telling us?

00:44:22
Or are they kind of giving us a misdirect?

00:44:26
That's because that's what I kind of I feel like they're

00:44:29
pulling the Okie doke on us, but I'm just not quite sure yet what

00:44:34
the Okie doke is. But I feel like even with all of

00:44:38
this that they showed us in this episode, I was like, there's

00:44:41
some information missing. And I don't know, something

00:44:45
about that Sarconan being in Moraine's position is bothering

00:44:50
me because of the fact. That I think.

00:44:53
I think we might be heading down the road of over thinking.

00:44:56
You think so? Yeah, because I remember

00:44:58
thinking that too, you know that because the one thing I noticed,

00:45:04
none of her visions, she had the Sarcona, but it was in her

00:45:08
possession, right? So I don't know.

00:45:13
I don't know if it would have made a difference whether she

00:45:16
had it or not. See.

00:45:17
I feel, I feel like. I think her visions were going

00:45:19
to be the same no matter what because even because 1-1

00:45:30
Lanchier Lanchier doesn't seem to be trying to manipulate

00:45:38
Moraine in her dreams or manipulate her other than trying

00:45:43
to help her manipulate Ran, right?

00:45:47
Secondly, I think it's more important that she sees that she

00:45:52
doesn't have the Sarconan in her visions.

00:45:57
And that may be something that she thought of too, which is why

00:45:59
she's trying to figure out how to use it to protect herself

00:46:03
from landfill. Because not in any of those

00:46:06
visions that she that we saw that she ever had it.

00:46:14
So it's possible the wheel intended for her to go there.

00:46:21
The wards were probably placed there, and since Latrusodi was

00:46:25
probably the last isodi there, it was probably for an isodi to

00:46:30
get, and as an isodi she was able to get it.

00:46:36
OK, Yeah. But the rings were not.

00:46:41
The rings don't intentionally, I don't want to say they're

00:46:44
sentient, but it was showing her what she needed to see and she

00:46:49
needed to see that if she isn't prepared, that is going to kill

00:46:53
her over and over again. And also if she doesn't die, Ran

00:46:59
can be successful. That's what she needed to see.

00:47:08
OK. OK, we have to.

00:47:10
We have to, we have to be careful about trying to

00:47:12
overthink these things because that's why I say it's important,

00:47:15
she says. I'm not at the last battle, but

00:47:18
she doesn't really say I'm dead. She only says Rand Rand and if I

00:47:28
live Rand dies. OK.

00:47:32
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Those are those are two

00:47:37
separate. Yeah, so, so if she OK 'cause I

00:47:44
was going to say so if she's not at the last battle, then where

00:47:48
the hell is she? If she's not dead, I mean, But I

00:47:53
mean that that that could be OK. We're.

00:47:58
We're not going to go down this yellow brick road today.

00:48:00
We'll just as you say, we'll stick a pin in that because

00:48:03
there's some other interesting things happening in this episode

00:48:06
that we need to get to. And for right now, I'm going

00:48:11
straight to a lot of that bitch to die because I'm sure that

00:48:21
maybe for half a second. So one was wishing that she was

00:48:27
a dark friend so she didn't have to abide by those oaths because

00:48:30
I'm sure she wanted to take that one power and whip the shit out

00:48:34
of the lighter after the disrespect she displayed in the

00:48:40
ambulance office. I was looking at this like.

00:48:45
If if you look that disrespect in the dictionary, you will see

00:48:49
a picture of a lot of star. And it's probably, and it's

00:48:52
probably one of those scratch and sniff pictures that that

00:48:56
smells like roses. Rotten Roses is that?

00:49:01
Is that what someone said? No, she just said.

00:49:04
She just said the overwhelming smell of your perfumed roses.

00:49:08
Yeah, nobody wants to see that. Because she's sitting there

00:49:13
reading, I'm assuming one of Moraine's letters, you know,

00:49:16
because of course she and Moraine are not on good terms

00:49:19
right now. She's she's reading the letters,

00:49:21
She smells the letter that all of a sudden you see her kind of

00:49:24
look and she puts the letter away real quick and before Eliza

00:49:28
even gets into the room. Good.

00:49:30
She was like the scent of your perfumed rose.

00:49:33
Is is it's it's so strong that it you know, it comes into the

00:49:38
room before you do. I was like, oh, that, but that's

00:49:41
a good that's a good alarm to have.

00:49:44
She coming down the hall. You like, oh, she going to be

00:49:46
here in 5 four. And, and the worst part of it

00:49:57
the the outright disrespect, she said.

00:50:00
Mother they. Come in polite.

00:50:03
She said. You fool many people, but I know

00:50:07
what you are. River trash man.

00:50:12
I know she was. Before that bef even before.

00:50:15
That I know she's got, she's talking about you can turn this

00:50:18
proper place into a, a river hood and you've had kings and

00:50:22
Queens sit on this. On these simple chairs with hard

00:50:26
ass. Carpet.

00:50:27
Hard ass carpet. No, ma'am, I know.

00:50:32
I know what you are, River trashed.

00:50:35
I was like, wow, I've. Had I paused?

00:50:39
This is the first time watching this episode.

00:50:43
I paused. Like you bitch.

00:50:46
I had to get up and get myself together.

00:50:51
But again, just like she did with Quinn, more gays.

00:50:55
So one, she kept it together. She did.

00:50:58
I don't know how she. Did because when Eliza was like,

00:51:01
because obviously Eliza has been elected as the temporary sitter

00:51:05
of the red Agia because one, she was given the audience with

00:51:09
Cameron and then two, she was like, I'm going to call for a

00:51:12
vote in the hall and you know, for us to go after and Cage

00:51:18
Randall, Thor and blah, blah, blah.

00:51:20
And what this was that she said. She said, we'll see which way

00:51:25
the votes go. She said I assume you have a

00:51:27
better handle on that then the last time you faced off against

00:51:32
me, I was like, you know what? So 1 is that bitch.

00:51:35
She was like, oh, you think you about to come up in my house and

00:51:38
disrespect me. She was like, no, I'm a

00:51:40
disrespect you, but I'm going to be polite with this shit.

00:51:43
I loved it. She was just looking at her like

00:51:47
you still talking, you still talk.

00:51:49
She was like, it's very hard to get in this an appointment with

00:51:52
me. I'm sure you're not here to talk

00:51:54
about my sense of style. Like, come on.

00:51:59
But when I tell you that woman, when she called her river trash,

00:52:04
I was like that. I was like that meme, like, oh,

00:52:08
what? I rewound it.

00:52:13
River trash. Oh, she was like, yeah, you

00:52:17
can't. What does she call it?

00:52:19
She said you've been the same thing ever since you brought

00:52:22
your little filthy 9 year old self through our doors.

00:52:25
I was like wow. I said, are you mad that someone

00:52:28
younger than you beat you as Amalan or you just don't like

00:52:31
her just because of where she's from or it's probably.

00:52:34
Because of where she's from and and the fact that, you know, he

00:52:41
lied to have been around a long time.

00:52:43
I, I Yeah. You know, and, and she's

00:52:47
probably been dealing with noble families, noble houses her

00:52:51
entire life. Yeah.

00:52:53
And to have this river trash become Armalin that there has to

00:53:02
be so disrespectful to her. I felt the same way I did when

00:53:10
Nolan called Peggy his pets, his pets on Invincible.

00:53:17
I felt the same outrage. I was like, hold up this bitch.

00:53:20
Like I wanted to come through the screen and fight for

00:53:23
someone. But again, so why kept her cool?

00:53:26
She made her little digs and when the only time you saw her

00:53:31
falter was when Eliza asked her about Moraine because she comes

00:53:35
in, the first thing she says is where is Elaine?

00:53:38
She was like, her brothers have been missing her.

00:53:40
And Swan says, I said, she's on a mission of my own choosing.

00:53:44
I've already let her mother know.

00:53:46
And that's when Eliza really starts going in on her.

00:53:49
But then she was like, where's Marines to die?

00:53:51
And you see someone's face almost falter.

00:53:54
And she was like, she's been exiled.

00:53:57
She was like, yeah, cuz I remember when you were a novice,

00:54:00
you were all over her like a little lovesick puppy.

00:54:02
And I think I, I asked about that a couple of episodes ago.

00:54:05
I was like, was it widely known that they were together back

00:54:09
then? And yeah, apparently it was.

00:54:12
And so I was like, that was a long time ago.

00:54:15
And she was like, people never change.

00:54:17
I was like, so you literally are telling her that you are the

00:54:20
same bitch that she beat went up for the ambulance seat 20 years

00:54:25
ago. So you OK you the same person

00:54:28
too. But salon was just like, well

00:54:33
that's about all our time. The ambulance The ambulance day

00:54:37
is a busy 1 is. There anything else?

00:54:40
And then she's like, no, thank you, Mother.

00:54:44
Is, is the way she says mother. It's just like there's so much

00:54:47
disdain dripping off her tongue when she has to call someone

00:54:52
mother. She's like, no, thank you

00:54:55
mother, for your time. I thought did that mean with the

00:54:59
the person doing this someone looking for a way to use the one

00:55:04
power? That's how I felt because the,

00:55:08
the look on Salon's face when Elijah walked out, I was like,

00:55:12
she's sitting here thinking, damn, I need to know if she's a

00:55:16
dark friend for real. Because I need I, I need to get

00:55:18
her. Speaking of trying to figure out

00:55:21
if she's a dark friend, not a segue.

00:55:26
I think Swan had the same thought.

00:55:27
I need to find out if this chick is dark.

00:55:31
She's black. Harsh.

00:55:33
Let me tell you, Leanna is all but convinced.

00:55:36
Leanna is like she black Asha. We just need to go.

00:55:39
We just need to go take care of her.

00:55:40
And even Veron is like, I understand how you feel, but we

00:55:45
have to make certain, and I will tell you this, something about

00:55:51
this episode and maybe a little bit about the last episode I'm

00:55:56
starting to change my opinion about Baron said that I think

00:56:01
she could be the the other black Asha.

00:56:05
What will make you think that I? Don't it's either her or it or

00:56:09
it was Adelaus because when they're sitting there talking

00:56:12
when someone comes in and she's telling her about the numbers,

00:56:15
she was like, OK, yeah, so it it's about the numbers, she

00:56:18
said. Leandrin, you know, she

00:56:22
basically had hearts, for she was.

00:56:24
Connected to the. 4 hearts to the black Asha, she said there

00:56:28
were three people in each heart. She had four hearts.

00:56:30
That means there were twelve of them.

00:56:32
Eleven of them revealed themselves.

00:56:34
So there's still one more. But if you notice at the

00:56:37
beginning of that scene when she is with Adelais, like Adelais

00:56:40
still is recovering from what whatever spell Naomi did on her,

00:56:45
if you want to call it a spell. But she's sitting there drinking

00:56:50
her tea. And when Sawan comes in, of

00:56:54
course, they're not really trying to hide anything from

00:56:56
Adelaide because they think, OK, Adelaide, her mind is a little

00:56:59
bit muddled. She probably won't pay

00:57:02
attention. But did you notice the change in

00:57:06
her demeanor when the words Black Asha came out?

00:57:10
She literally and she was sitting there paying attention

00:57:14
to what they were saying. So it was it's either Adelaide

00:57:18
is or is is Varian. But the the reason why I said I

00:57:23
think it could possibly be Varian is because one when

00:57:30
Leanna was sitting there talking about, oh, is it lighter?

00:57:32
Is it lighter? Is it lighter?

00:57:36
I feel like she was trying to deflect from that because she

00:57:39
might be black Asha, but I don't think she wants somebody else to

00:57:42
be accused of that false thing. I, I don't know, I I feel like

00:57:45
she's kind of teetering if she is black Asha.

00:57:50
The second part is when they do the little bait and switch thing

00:57:55
later on in the episode. You know, they have the not the

00:57:58
accepted girl bring Adelais out and Elias.

00:58:02
Elias sees her and they start talking and the girl goes back

00:58:06
in and Leanna is like so did she take the bait?

00:58:09
The girl says yes, Veron is over there reading the book but she

00:58:13
looks so worried. And I was like, OK.

00:58:17
Is she worried about her sister talking to a lighter?

00:58:20
Or is she worried about her sister maybe slipping up and

00:58:23
saying something that she's not supposed to say because she

00:58:25
doesn't know that she's not supposed to say it.

00:58:28
And I know that they probably trained her.

00:58:32
They probably got her to say, OK, yeah, when she comes to you,

00:58:36
you're going to say 13th Depository, you're going to say

00:58:38
Black Asha, because that's what Adelaide does to kind of get

00:58:44
Eliza to go down to the 13th Depository where they keep

00:58:47
enjoying Amico. But they also once all of that

00:58:52
happens, once Eliza is down there, she questions Joy Amico,

00:58:57
she kills Amoco, she tries to get the the name of the last

00:59:01
sister out of Joya, But here comes the Gray man and kills

00:59:05
Joya and then attacks Elida. Suwan and Leanna come down to

00:59:11
the repository. They see what's going on.

00:59:15
Suwan, he starts healing Elida's wounds.

00:59:17
And she was like, think I may have underestimated you.

00:59:20
I think I may have, you know, kind of made a mistake with you.

00:59:24
Who is not there, Baron? Marian.

00:59:30
So I I don't know, I just feel especially after the last Gray

00:59:35
man like this is now 2 Gray men that have been in the tower, in

00:59:40
the tower. Well, they they'll be they can

00:59:43
get into the tire. I know.

00:59:44
But what I'm saying is you have two attacks like back-to-back,

00:59:51
and Baron is kind of sort of attached to both of them, kind

00:59:56
of in a right. Because when the Gray man

01:00:02
attacked Elaine and Naive, who's coming around the corner?

01:00:05
Varon, who doesn't ask who stabbed the Gray man?

01:00:10
Varon, she had what? You got a Gray man in your

01:00:15
tower, on your floor. And you don't have any questions

01:00:21
about it. You don't ask why.

01:00:23
Why do you think he's after you? You, you have no curiosity about

01:00:28
this thing whatsoever. Then you have all this stuff

01:00:34
happened with Delighta. You know, you set the trap for

01:00:38
her because that's what someone told you to do.

01:00:41
But then you didn't go with them to see what the result of that

01:00:44
trap was. This is the third great man,

01:00:48
right? Yes, but the first Gray man was

01:00:52
in the was in the town. Yeah, but they're all Mogadian.

01:00:57
Mogadian is Sinanese Gray man. Yeah, but I, I don't know.

01:01:03
They still have a sister in in the they still have a black Asha

01:01:06
in the tower. We how do we know that MO Gideon

01:01:09
is not working? Especially because she knows

01:01:12
that Leandra is leading the Black Asha because again, she

01:01:15
was disguised as a servant in Tan Chico in Leandra's house.

01:01:21
Just like she has that secret. But what would What would

01:01:27
Magedian? This is getting into the weeds,

01:01:32
but what would Mageddon game to stand or stand to gain by

01:01:38
killing Julia and Amica? Maybe.

01:01:43
How important is that 13th sister in the tower, Mageddon

01:01:52
she got her hands on the black eyes that she need to have her

01:01:55
hands on. Whatever's happened to the tower

01:01:57
don't have nothing to do with what they got going on here, and

01:02:02
the only person who knew what they were doing in Tan Chico was

01:02:06
Leandre. She just like, did she?

01:02:09
Did she tell them? In the last episode was that?

01:02:12
Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:02:14
While they were there. Yeah, yeah, because of the

01:02:17
because of the Adam, but I don't know, my brain hasn't thought

01:02:22
that part yet. No, but the 13th sister doesn't

01:02:26
know why they're in tan. She doesn't even probably even

01:02:28
know where they are. The 12th Sister.

01:02:31
The 12th Sister. So I'm still trying to figure

01:02:36
out why the great man would be there to kill Amoco and Joy

01:02:39
because they don't have any information.

01:02:42
I mean, Joy was about to tell who The Who the 12th sister was.

01:02:46
So maybe I don't know, maybe it's, you know, kind of like

01:02:52
Magedian has her little super secret partnership with Gabriel

01:02:57
or Raven, maybe whoever this maybe she has ties to this 12th

01:03:02
sister and she doesn't want them to find out who it is, because

01:03:06
maybe that's how she's getting some of her information.

01:03:08
Aside from her being in Tan Chico, She's that means she

01:03:12
could still have somebody watching what's going on at the

01:03:15
tower for any information. I mean, that's the only thing I

01:03:19
can think of information because it's not like, I mean, unless

01:03:25
there's something this is a skill I don't know about.

01:03:27
It's not like she can be in two places at one time if she's

01:03:31
paying attention in Tan Chico because that's where the

01:03:35
priority is. OK, Leandra has identified there

01:03:38
is a male, a Dom somewhere in that town.

01:03:42
The collar. They already have the bracelet.

01:03:45
And, you know, maybe she's like, OK, while I'm here doing this, I

01:03:50
need you. Or maybe maybe she's not even

01:03:53
directly. Maybe it's an indirect thing and

01:03:56
she's just kind of like, OK, I need you to give me information

01:04:01
and let me know what's going on. So I mean, I don't know.

01:04:06
Softly, softly from the shadows. Softly, softly from the shadows.

01:04:12
So. Guess for for as much of A So I

01:04:15
guess for as much of a bitch as she is a light as not no no.

01:04:20
I was going to go off on a tangent about we still don't

01:04:24
know who that last Forsaken is. Yeah, you're.

01:04:29
Right and. That's who it is.

01:04:32
Look, maybe that's who the 13th. I mean the 12th Aja.

01:04:35
See, now you got me saying 13th. Maybe that's who the 12th Aja

01:04:38
is. I don't know.

01:04:43
But, you know, I thought Lyda was going to get it.

01:04:48
And. And this show keeps teasing

01:04:51
stuff. They keep trying to stab folks

01:04:54
and make me think that they're about to die.

01:04:56
And I'm like, yes, yes, yes. And.

01:04:59
Now Eliza is going to use this as part of her evidence to get

01:05:04
rid of. So fucking lutely.

01:05:08
See this? She set me up to be murdered.

01:05:12
She's probably working, working with dark friends.

01:05:18
So she has to be a dark friend. I kind of, yeah.

01:05:22
She right before they were going to tell me who it was, the great

01:05:27
man killed them. Yeah, I can see her using that

01:05:31
to her her advantage. That's going to be terrible.

01:05:37
But on the flip side, so why I could easily say, if that was

01:05:41
the case, why would I heal her? Because if that's what you're

01:05:46
going to do, let the great man do his job.

01:05:48
You don't have to come down there and save her.

01:05:51
Yeah, but some people may just be liquid for an excuse.

01:05:54
And I'm sure they are, but I'm saying that that that excuse

01:05:58
will be flimsy at best, I think because of the fact that Swann

01:06:02
saved her. So yeah.

01:06:07
I don't know. In combination with all the

01:06:09
other things letting letting the dragon get away.

01:06:15
Which again, was not technically her fault because she was on the

01:06:19
back. She was.

01:06:20
She was on the grounds. Technically speaking, Leanna is

01:06:23
the one that let the dragon get away.

01:06:25
It's just again who? Who.

01:06:29
Leanna is Swan's keeper. I know I'm just saying I'm I'm

01:06:32
just nitpicking, but those, those are arguments that can

01:06:36
kind of be pulled apart. We can be, but when people have

01:06:39
an idea in the head what they want to do, it's very easy to

01:06:43
overlook. I know.

01:06:45
That's why we got the prison we got now, but we're not going to

01:06:48
go there. Oh, let's not go there.

01:06:50
OK, so we're just going to segue into a different part of the

01:06:53
story because talk about almost killing folks and me having a

01:06:57
heart attack. We need to go to the Two Rivers.

01:07:04
I'm going to say it again. I want child Balda to die a slow

01:07:16
and very painful death. The problem?

01:07:20
He's saving the problem. This psychopath, right?

01:07:24
He itching, chomping at the bit to put these little girls to the

01:07:29
question. He can't wait.

01:07:35
That's a problem. And the fact that.

01:07:39
He don't really care about pairing the eyeball.

01:07:41
He don't care. They're girls and they're women

01:07:47
and they deserve to be punished. And I believe what you said in

01:07:52
the last episode, you were like, I don't think it's just I said

01:07:54
that. You said you think he has a

01:07:56
problem with women. Obviously he does like he has a

01:08:00
hard on for doing this questioning because he even

01:08:03
tries it again. He was like, OK, so we really

01:08:07
need to get this information on parent.

01:08:09
You don't let me question these women.

01:08:11
And Dane is like, no. Even drunk Dane is like no.

01:08:17
He stood there for us. He's like, yeah, no, absolutely

01:08:20
not. So he goes into the tent where

01:08:24
he's keeping the coffin women and he's trying to be nice to

01:08:31
the girls. You know, he was like, hey,

01:08:33
nobody's going to get hurt and I'm sorry.

01:08:35
I was like, as soon as he said that, I was like, somebody's

01:08:37
going to get hurt. But he's like, nobody's going to

01:08:40
get hurt. He was like, I just need to know

01:08:42
where Paranoid Bar and Barra is. And one of the girls answers,

01:08:46
you know, she was like, I'm sorry, Sir, we don't know where

01:08:50
he is. She was like, even if he was

01:08:52
back in the village, we haven't seen him.

01:08:55
And I, I, we wouldn't remember what he looks like anyway.

01:08:58
Because, you know, again, at this point, it's been a couple

01:09:01
of years. The girls were little when they

01:09:02
left. So they've gotten a little bit

01:09:05
older, but still they're like, no, we don't know him.

01:09:08
And while they're doing that, Natty is over to the side trying

01:09:11
to get his keys. And I'm just sitting there like,

01:09:13
Natty, you're about to get caught.

01:09:15
So she didn't get caught the first time.

01:09:17
He gets up and he he turns around and almost looks like

01:09:20
he's about to walk off. And then the other girl, she, I

01:09:25
guess she realizes what her mom was trying to do.

01:09:27
So she called me. She was like, but if he were to

01:09:30
come back, I know where he would go.

01:09:35
So he comes back over. He bends down to them and as

01:09:39
soon as he did that, it was something about the way his body

01:09:42
was angled. I said he knows Natty was trying

01:09:44
to take them keys. So she tries to take the keys.

01:09:51
He catches her and then he like, he pulls her arm and kind of

01:09:55
slams her face up against the cage.

01:09:59
And then all of a sudden he is hit with the one power.

01:10:05
And at this point, we don't know where it came from.

01:10:08
So of course he's pissed off. Oh, you're witches, You're

01:10:11
witches. And that is like, no, it was me.

01:10:13
It was me. And he kind of looks at her.

01:10:16
And then he opens the cage and he takes her out and gives her

01:10:19
the child bothered. He was like, this one is ready

01:10:21
for questioning. He.

01:10:22
Says you're a witch. Now, well, here's the thing, he

01:10:27
said you're a witch when he was talking to all three of them in

01:10:30
the cage. And then when Natty says it was

01:10:34
me, it was me. And he takes her out when at

01:10:37
first I was pissed. I was like, you asshole.

01:10:40
But then I started thinking, child Baldur, as we just said,

01:10:47
he wasn't going to let go of wanting to question one of those

01:10:51
girls or all three of those girls.

01:10:53
And I think Dane knew enough to know at some point he's going to

01:10:59
get what he wants. And I really feel like when he

01:11:04
was in that tent and he realized that someone to channel, I think

01:11:08
he knew it had to be one of the girls, but I don't think he

01:11:12
wanted to give the girls up to child bottle knowing what he's

01:11:16
capable of. And I think when Natty kind of

01:11:20
said it was me, it was me that kind of gave him a way to 1

01:11:24
protect the girls. Because again, Dane is doing all

01:11:27
this other bullshit because he wants parent, but we know that

01:11:31
he's not a cool person. We've seen that before.

01:11:35
Even with Ivienda when he had her locked up, he was still

01:11:38
like, OK, we can give her some water.

01:11:41
Which none of the other white clothes would have done.

01:11:44
So I think he used that as an excuse to kind of save the

01:11:48
girls. You didn't have to say they were

01:11:49
channeling and he took Maddie out, of course, didn't have to

01:11:53
say she channel. He was just like, this one's

01:11:54
ready for your questioning. Valda was going to do what he

01:11:58
did to her regardless of whether or not she was a channeler or

01:12:01
not, because he just needed to get that out of his system.

01:12:07
So of course, when Parent and File and Bane and Shiad finally

01:12:14
get down there to kind of rescue them and they get the girls out

01:12:17
and the girls tell them, OK, they took Mom that way, when he

01:12:20
comes around the corner, you can tell, probably because of his

01:12:23
senses, you can tell he already knows that Natty is dead.

01:12:27
And of course you go around and you see he tied her to a stake

01:12:31
and he burned her just like he did the other eyes to die when

01:12:34
we first met him. And at that point I was like,

01:12:37
OK, parent is about to kill somebody.

01:12:40
He's about to kill somebody because of course he's visibly

01:12:42
upset by I'll is like, OK, we have to go.

01:12:45
And they run smack dab in today. And he was like, you did this,

01:12:52
you allowed this. He was like, I thought you was a

01:12:54
good man. Danny said I was a good man up

01:12:57
until you. Then the fight starts.

01:13:02
Now before all of that, when they got ready to go to the to

01:13:06
the, you know, to the camp and they were talking about what

01:13:10
they were going to do is Paran, Fayil, Bain, Chiad, Alana and

01:13:15
Maxim and loyal. And Paran was like, OK, so this

01:13:21
is what we're going to do. Me, Bain and Chiad, we're going

01:13:23
to go down there. We're going to get Natty and the

01:13:25
girls and then Fayil says and me and the parent says, no, not

01:13:31
yet. You're going to stay up here.

01:13:34
It's going to be the three of us.

01:13:36
And she pulls out her knife and puts it up to parents throat and

01:13:40
bang the chair. Look at each other and say, and

01:13:42
her they were like, yeah, we taking her.

01:13:47
But yeah, I they get into they get into this fight I'll with

01:13:55
like 3 or 4 white cloaks and then pairing with Dane.

01:13:59
I guess Dane was pissed off enough.

01:14:01
He might have been drunk, but he was pissed off enough like OK,

01:14:04
I'm going to fight this dude when he stabbed parent inside.

01:14:09
I was like, OK, I have seen enough near death today.

01:14:12
I don't need to see anymore. And I should have kept my mouth

01:14:16
shut because I should have known that wasn't going to be the end

01:14:20
of it. Because when they're in the big

01:14:24
group, Alana makes a remark. And she was like, it's a clear

01:14:31
night tonight. There's no clouds.

01:14:34
I'm going to I'm going to create some cover.

01:14:36
And Maximus telling her he was like, no, we, we agreed that

01:14:39
you're going to stay up here and heal the girls in case they need

01:14:42
it. And she looked at him and she

01:14:44
was like, I'll create some cover.

01:14:46
And he said, Alana, no, you can't do this.

01:14:49
He was like, those are white clothes down there, You know, do

01:14:53
you know what they would do if they get even a whiff of

01:14:58
channeling being done? And she looks at him and she

01:15:02
looks at them and she was like, I'll create cover and Maximus

01:15:06
life. I don't even know why I'm

01:15:08
wasting my breath because she's going to do what she wants to do

01:15:12
when they get into this whole argument.

01:15:15
Because he was like, OK, I have said I don't like it when they

01:15:24
argue. It's so heart wrenching.

01:15:30
But yeah, he was like, he was like, so why are you doing this?

01:15:36
And she was like, you don't tell me what to do.

01:15:38
We don't we don't make no, he said we usually make decisions

01:15:43
together. And she said, we haven't been

01:15:44
much of a weed lately. He's like, really?

01:15:46
You gonna say that to me? He was like, I followed you up

01:15:48
Turn Mountain. Why you gotta call it Turnip

01:15:53
Mountain? He's I followed you up Turnip

01:15:54
Mountain and you still haven't told me what we're doing here.

01:15:59
And then she says, because you're not enough.

01:16:01
And she yells it. And at first I was like, is this

01:16:05
like a dig at him and their relationship?

01:16:07
Like, Oh my God, Ivan's not hearing you're not enough for

01:16:10
me. I knew exactly what she meant

01:16:13
the first time. Yeah, I, I, I realized that once

01:16:16
it came out, because the way he looked at her, I was like, OK,

01:16:20
she didn't mean it in that kind of way because I think he would

01:16:22
have felt it if she meant it that way.

01:16:25
And she was like, look, when I took this ring, I decided that I

01:16:33
was going to be on the winning end when this whole last battle

01:16:36
thing comes, she said. And you know what I realized

01:16:39
when the Black Asha attacked? They are ready and.

01:16:43
We are not. She said, And if nobody else is

01:16:46
going to build an army, then I will.

01:16:49
And he said an army of what? Farmers, She said The Dragon

01:16:54
Reborn? Iguain Armira.

01:16:57
Naive. The strongest hammer in the

01:17:00
last. In the last 1000 years, she said

01:17:04
they all, she said. Even the horn blower, they all

01:17:08
come from this place and she's basically telling him, look,

01:17:12
there's a lot of power here, we just got to find it.

01:17:16
So of course he gets up saying he was like, look, he was like,

01:17:18
I don't care about the last battle.

01:17:20
I don't care about ambulance, I don't care about none of this

01:17:22
shit. He was like, the only thing I've

01:17:24
ever cared about in my life is Ivan and you.

01:17:27
And if you're going to throw your life away like you did his,

01:17:31
I was like, why are we saying these horrible things to each

01:17:35
other? He's still hurt.

01:17:38
I know and I know but he was like I'm here for you.

01:17:43
I don't give a fuck about none of this other stuff.

01:17:46
But if you're going to throw your your life away, I'm not

01:17:48
going to stand here and watch. I'm going to do what we should

01:17:51
have done in the 1st place. I'm going to go find Leandron

01:17:54
and I'm going to go kill her. And when he turns around to walk

01:17:57
off she calls his name. He turns around.

01:18:01
He was like come go with me. And you can see almost for a

01:18:04
split second she was considering it.

01:18:06
Almost. And then you see her make this

01:18:10
face and she looks at him and she was like, I turned off the

01:18:13
bond. I was like, why are y'all

01:18:15
stabbing me in my heart today, y'all?

01:18:18
I don't like it, OK? I don't like it when Alana and

01:18:22
Maxim fight. And I've noticed that in the

01:18:24
last few episodes since we're seeing more of them.

01:18:27
Because when it was them and Ivan, they all, when they

01:18:31
disagreed, it was a humorous disagree.

01:18:35
It was playful, it was never hurtful, it was never Oh my God,

01:18:40
put stick the knife in and twist it.

01:18:42
And that's what I felt like with these cop, this conversation and

01:18:45
the conversation they had last episode.

01:18:48
So he leaves. So why all this stuff is going

01:18:51
down on down here in the camp. Alana is making the cover now.

01:18:56
I will say this, Alana, you could have been a little more

01:18:59
subtle because there is no way all of that fog just immediately

01:19:08
covers the camp and they don't know that that's a channel or

01:19:11
somewhere. Yeah, there's no way.

01:19:14
Yeah, and the thing about it is they know how to ask a lie, so

01:19:20
yeah. And that's what they did.

01:19:23
Because when Baldur sees the fog, he was like, yeah, you know

01:19:28
what? That other witch, she was

01:19:30
nothing and there's another white cloak with him.

01:19:33
He was like, you want to go? You want to go learn how to how

01:19:36
to catch a real woman that can channel.

01:19:38
Yeah, let's go. And I was like, please let her

01:19:41
kill him. But no, they actually get the

01:19:44
drop on her because there's so many of them.

01:19:48
They surround her and I think they know that the way the

01:19:53
shield, they know how the Shields work, so.

01:19:58
So she's shielding herself in the front because they have

01:20:00
crossbows. And as she shielded herself in

01:20:03
the front, they're shooting her in the back.

01:20:05
So. She takes several arrows, and

01:20:09
then one of the white cloaks is about to come in for the final

01:20:13
kill. Because she can't.

01:20:15
She can't do anything. She's got arrows sticking out of

01:20:17
her front, arrows sticking out of her back, A.

01:20:19
Human pincushion. So she's about to get knifed or

01:20:26
sorted, she's about to get stabbed and here comes Max from

01:20:31
fighting. He starts fighting, he starts

01:20:33
killing white clothes. Now she got a few of the white

01:20:36
clothes. She she killed a few of them,

01:20:38
but then he starts getting. I was like y'all stressing me

01:20:41
the fuck out in this damn episode.

01:20:44
Can y'all please stop shooting the people I like please.

01:20:48
We still have 3 episodes to go. We can't kill everybody I like

01:20:52
in the same episode. That's just not about to happen.

01:20:57
So then once they get all the white clothes killed and she,

01:21:01
she, you know, they crawl towards each other.

01:21:03
She was like, I'll let you know where I was.

01:21:06
He said you turned on the bond five hours ago.

01:21:12
I was like, OK, this is the kind of disagreement or this is the

01:21:16
kind of banter I want out of Maxim and Alana.

01:21:19
I don't want no more this, this, this arguing shit.

01:21:21
Cut that out, cut it out. I don't need it.

01:21:24
We got we got enough division going on elsewhere in the

01:21:28
episode. I don't need it from you too.

01:21:30
Thank you. And and, and for the people

01:21:32
listening, yes, she took a lot of arrows, but remember, because

01:21:37
of the bond, she gets the health boost.

01:21:40
Yeah, these are stat boost, so she can take it.

01:21:45
I don't know. That's a lot of arrows.

01:21:46
That's a lot of arrows. But I I need y'all to stop, stop

01:21:53
shooting my folks. And I need Alana and Maxim to

01:21:56
stop arguing just, you know, and it's so funny because even at

01:22:00
the beginning of the episode, she was trying to, she was

01:22:03
trying to sew together one of her dresses.

01:22:05
And he was telling her, he said, well, you can't put on one of

01:22:07
the sacks that they wear around here.

01:22:11
And she just looked at him like, whatever.

01:22:14
And he was like, yeah, he was like, don't you like the shop

01:22:17
and such and such? And she was like, talking about

01:22:20
leaving already. I thought you were, you know, I

01:22:22
thought you was flirting with the with the Baker boy over

01:22:25
there. Now, the Baker boy was cute.

01:22:27
He was like, yeah, but have you tasted the bread?

01:22:31
That bread was hard as a rock. Who is eating this stuff in the

01:22:34
Two Rivers? Like what?

01:22:37
So that's the kind of banter I like from them.

01:22:40
I don't. I don't like all this arguing

01:22:42
stuff. I need y'all to, I don't know,

01:22:45
y'all need to like sleep it off like literally sleep it off

01:22:49
apparently, because I I'm tired of the arguing.

01:22:54
Yeah, got yourselves killed. Do you notice he wasn't a part

01:22:59
of the Let's Catch Alana crew? He was noticeably missing.

01:23:04
Because, you know, I was hoping I was like, oh, she'd kill her.

01:23:07
She killed white clothes, white right and left.

01:23:09
Well, Valda motherfucker, nowhere.

01:23:12
And I think he did that on purpose.

01:23:14
He was like, yeah, you know what?

01:23:15
I'm going to send them up there to catch her.

01:23:18
He probably has never never been around him.

01:23:21
He he tells them what to do and then he waits to see if they can

01:23:25
do it, even if they're going to see or not.

01:23:29
No skin. Also, I think probably I and you

01:23:33
know, we know that he has killed Isodai before.

01:23:38
Maybe there was something about what was going on.

01:23:41
I don't know how he gauged it. He saw the fog or whatever.

01:23:45
He was like, Oh no, this is a powerful one.

01:23:47
I'm not going to touch her. I'm going to let y'all do it.

01:23:51
I think it's more likely that he don't come in to the cock them

01:23:58
to put them to the question or burn them.

01:24:00
I'm I'm pretty sure that's how he operates.

01:24:04
That's the only way a man like that could survive as long as he

01:24:07
has. He didn't even mess with Inguane

01:24:11
because she was tied up. Yeah, yeah, he.

01:24:16
Didn't need her to show him he could she could channel so but

01:24:21
yeah. That motherfucker.

01:24:23
Oh, and that's the other thing, because when they walk into the

01:24:26
camp, Parent notices he has wolves heads on spike and you

01:24:34
could just kind of see, you could hear parent kind of, you

01:24:38
know, he was just like, OK. This so they Yeah, so they get

01:24:47
the girls they. Get the girls.

01:24:51
Parent get the girls and take them out of the camp.

01:24:55
So the parents sees Natty and then they fight.

01:25:03
They brawl. Let me tell you.

01:25:06
That I thought Dane was going to die.

01:25:08
I really did. I did too, but I don't think,

01:25:10
like, I don't think Paron wants to kill him because I think

01:25:15
Paron in a way understands why Dane is doing what he's doing.

01:25:21
But and I think he also probably realizes that Dane wasn't the

01:25:25
one that put Natty to the torch. I mean, he he's seen Valda do

01:25:32
that before, so I think he's probably like, you know what you

01:25:36
would you were just in my way. I'm I'm going to get the one who

01:25:41
who really did it. Which again, if Valda wasn't up

01:25:44
on the on the cliffs with the rest of the white cloaks trying

01:25:49
to kill Alana and he missed the whole fight down there in the

01:25:54
camps, where the hell was he him hiding happen.

01:26:01
I'm hiding. And then fire proceeds to kick

01:26:05
everybody's ass. Listen.

01:26:08
See Black Widow, a couple of them.

01:26:10
Listen, I was like, and you wanted to look kind of like they

01:26:19
did with Wanda. Why was she back there the whole

01:26:22
time? You wanted to leave her behind.

01:26:24
Really. Really, I mean I I kind of

01:26:29
understand because when she when they got the upper hand on her

01:26:34
parents attention was distracted because he was worried about her

01:26:39
getting hurt. So maybe that's why he put her

01:26:43
back because we do know parent parent got a thing for her.

01:26:46
We saw that any Wayne's Little Dream walking because Aaron was

01:26:51
dreaming of a life in the two rivers with by hills and Hopper,

01:26:55
which made me sad but I was like OK, yeah, but that girl can

01:26:59
fight. I can see why band and she I was

01:27:01
like, we taking her to. Yeah.

01:27:04
But the whole thing with Maddie being dead now made me even

01:27:14
sadder later on in the episode because when a Gwen is doing her

01:27:18
dream walking and she's going into all of her friends dreams,

01:27:23
she's in Matt's dream. And Matt is apparently at this

01:27:27
point, he he is well off now and he's he's talking to his sisters

01:27:33
and he's telling them he was like, yeah, you guys will never

01:27:35
have to sleep on the floor again in your life.

01:27:38
And he's happy And his mom comes up to him and she says I'm proud

01:27:43
of you. And I started tearing up because

01:27:46
I was like, this is his dream to have his mom say she's proud of

01:27:50
him. And now he'll never get that

01:27:51
chance. Nope, the last thing he's going

01:27:54
to remember of his mom was her being angry and ugly when he

01:27:59
left the Two Rivers and then the visions that Ishmael showed him.

01:28:05
And there was 1. So, you know, I watch, I watch

01:28:09
the show with closed captionings.

01:28:10
And you know, sometimes the closed caption is don't get it

01:28:12
right. So when he was having those

01:28:16
visions of his mom being angry at him, one of the lines that

01:28:20
she said to him, it sounded different, but the closed

01:28:23
caption said something like, you're a prick like him.

01:28:29
And I was like, that's harsh for her to say.

01:28:31
But in this episode, he I think there was a part where he was

01:28:37
remembering something that she said to him.

01:28:41
And what she actually said was don't give up like him.

01:28:45
And I was like, oh, is that because he's looking at it

01:28:49
differently? Or is that or is that what she

01:28:52
actually said? And Ishamael kind of twisted it

01:28:55
when he was showing them the fans like, oh, but that made me

01:28:58
so sad because I was like, now Matt is never going to be able

01:29:01
to hear his mom say that. She's never going to tell him

01:29:04
she's proud of him. And he's going to have to

01:29:06
remember how ugly she was to him.

01:29:12
That made me sad because I was like, OK, I didn't really care

01:29:17
for her in the first episode when we met her, but I could

01:29:20
understand what she was going through because I mean, you

01:29:23
literally sitting here with three children struggling and in

01:29:27
your face, your husband is over there trying to fornicate with

01:29:30
another woman. I, I can understand her being

01:29:33
bitter. I can understand her being

01:29:34
angry, especially because she felt like Matt was starting to

01:29:39
be like his father as far as the gambling and stuff goes.

01:29:42
But still it's like now Matt will never get that needed

01:29:46
validation from his mom because I really think he he needs that.

01:29:49
And I think that's one of the reasons why he acts the way he

01:29:53
does with other people as far as like being a horn blower, the

01:29:57
bragging, wanting the the admiration and.

01:30:01
The Yeah. Yeah, because he he didn't get

01:30:04
it at home, but that made me sad.

01:30:10
But Speaking of Matt. Oh, the Scooby-doo crew.

01:30:17
Stuck in two. Stuck in.

01:30:21
No. Excuse me, stuck in a small room

01:30:27
on a rocking boat for two weeks with someone who keeps throwing

01:30:35
up. I can't even imagine the smell

01:30:37
in that cabin. No, I'm sorry.

01:30:42
I'm one of those people. I'm one of those people.

01:30:45
I don't. I don't throw up a lot, like at

01:30:48
all. It's very, very rare.

01:30:50
Even when my kids were little and they got sick and they threw

01:30:56
up, I couldn't go near it because I would start dry

01:31:00
heaving and almost throw up. So my ex-husband at the time

01:31:03
when I was married, he would always be the one to clean up

01:31:06
that stuff because I couldn't do it.

01:31:08
I didn't have stomach for it. I can't imagine being stuck in a

01:31:11
room and not even an air conditioned room or anything

01:31:14
like that. You are stuck on a medieval boat

01:31:17
because that's what it looks like.

01:31:19
You are stuck. You are stuck on the Jolly

01:31:22
Roger. You are stuck on the Black Pearl

01:31:26
with someone who has been puking their guts out for the last two

01:31:29
weeks. Like you've been on the boat for

01:31:30
two weeks. I know you haven't been eating a

01:31:32
lot. What the fuck are you bringing

01:31:34
up from your stomach? And.

01:31:35
Well, funny was it like, oh, they made to sit down here.

01:31:38
Oh, I think it was because they thought Naive would throw

01:31:41
herself overboard and. She was like, she was like, is

01:31:44
that an option? But it reminds me that's that's

01:31:49
how Jamie Fraser is on Outlander.

01:31:51
He he's he gets seasick too. So it's the same thing.

01:31:56
So I'm sitting here laughing. Elaine is trying to give them a

01:31:59
geography lesson on Tan Chico. Matt is going off on her.

01:32:02
Yeah, I'm sure you're not used to traveling like this.

01:32:04
You used to people hoisting you. I was like, OK, yeah.

01:32:08
Y'all have been in close quarters way too long, way too

01:32:10
long. But Elaine said that was the

01:32:13
only, that was the only promise I made to the ship captain is

01:32:17
that we will stay down here during the course of the trip.

01:32:20
But while they're traveling, she happens to look outside.

01:32:23
And she was like, hold up, we shouldn't be passing this place

01:32:27
yet. We've only been on the boat for

01:32:29
two weeks. We're moving, but.

01:32:31
She's I know their their their ships.

01:32:34
Their ships are fast, but they ain't.

01:32:35
They shouldn't be this fast. They shouldn't be this fast.

01:32:38
And of course Matt is like, oh, let's go investigate.

01:32:40
We're going upstairs. So they all go upstairs and it's

01:32:43
all, not all women crew, but it's mostly women crew.

01:32:47
And I actually liked this because, you know, anytime we're

01:32:50
watching something about ships and pirates or, you know, those

01:32:55
types of things, it's always men.

01:32:58
And you know, the superstition is always that it's bad luck to

01:33:00
have a woman on the ship. So they have all these different

01:33:04
superstitions. Or if you have a woman on the

01:33:05
boat, they have to stay down in the cabin, which I thought was

01:33:09
why they were trying to keep them down there.

01:33:11
And I was just like, oh, so woman captain, oh, it's a woman

01:33:15
staring the butt. Like, OK, all these powerful,

01:33:20
powerful women of color. I was here for it.

01:33:22
I was like, yes, OK, come on, come on.

01:33:26
Being in charge. And they start, they come down

01:33:31
and they're like, y'all aren't even supposed to be up here.

01:33:33
Y'all supposed to be down below. And she looks at 19.

01:33:36
She said, OK, you're from the mountains.

01:33:38
And then she starts telling her, I guess about how to combat her

01:33:41
sea sickness. She was like, you plant your

01:33:43
feet so firmly on the ground that you don't give sway to

01:33:47
anything else. She was like, kind of loosen

01:33:49
your legs and let the boat rock while you stay in place.

01:33:52
So she's giving her that information and 19 starts to

01:33:58
feel a little bit better and they're having a conversation

01:34:01
with the ship captain. They're like, OK, hey, can we

01:34:03
just stay up here, like. The sail mistress.

01:34:07
The sail mistress that's. What the I couldn't remember the

01:34:09
word for yes, thank you sail mistress.

01:34:11
But they were like, can we stay up here?

01:34:14
And while Matt is over here lounging, here's man, the

01:34:17
stowaway over here in the back, and she tries to sneak to her

01:34:20
room and Matt finds and he was like, hey, can I come stay with

01:34:24
you instead of them? And she was like, no, you can't

01:34:26
come into my cabin. But of course, Matt follows her

01:34:29
to her cabin. Matt doesn't.

01:34:31
Matt doesn't believe in boundaries.

01:34:33
He doesn't, or maybe he does and that's why he needed it, because

01:34:37
he was like, I can't be in. I can't be in this cabin with

01:34:40
these two anymore. Like there are no boundaries in

01:34:44
here, so I need some kind of boundaries.

01:34:45
OK, Yeah, I'll go. I'll go.

01:34:47
Disturb your boundaries. But while he's lounging in her

01:34:50
hammock, she is furiously trying to collect up all these papers

01:34:54
that she has strewn around the cabin.

01:34:57
And he picks one up and it's a drawing of him hanging the the

01:35:02
vision that she saw back in Tar Vilan.

01:35:05
And he was like, what is this? And she was like, these are my

01:35:07
visions, she said. I figure if I can, if I can

01:35:13
remember as many details, then maybe I can do something to stop

01:35:18
them from happening. Matt's like, yeah, OK.

01:35:23
He was like, I'm not going to kill myself, contrary to what

01:35:26
you might think, or maybe I won't kill myself.

01:35:30
But he's like, OK. And then she kind of lightens it

01:35:32
up. But you see him get back on the

01:35:34
Hammond, and he kind of curls up like a baby.

01:35:36
And I was like, I don't think Matt likes.

01:35:38
No. Like.

01:35:39
This is the second time he's been shown a vision of him

01:35:43
hanging himself because again, it's Shamayo.

01:35:46
That was one of the visions that he saw and fall.

01:35:51
Wait, wait, don't, don't, don't say it that way.

01:35:53
He didn't hang himself. OK, well, OK, him hanging.

01:35:57
OK, yes, him hanging, him hanging of him hanging and.

01:36:01
Also he he keeps pointing out that her visions don't always

01:36:05
come true. But dude, you did stab Brand.

01:36:12
Yeah. It she she said you killed, but

01:36:15
you don't. Yeah.

01:36:16
But yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So yes, OK, let me change it.

01:36:21
Because he was the one who was like, I'm not going to kill

01:36:23
myself. But I was also thinking when he

01:36:25
said that you hang, it doesn't necessarily mean that you killed

01:36:28
yourself, that it could mean somebody killed you.

01:36:31
So I was like, OK, I'm not going to think that because again,

01:36:34
we're not going to have none of my people die.

01:36:36
No, we're not doing that. We've already had Ivan die this

01:36:39
season. That was that was the quota.

01:36:41
We're not doing anything. We're not doing anything.

01:36:43
But so later on, on the boat, Naive and Elaine are sleeping

01:36:49
and Elaine wakes up because there's light.

01:36:53
You can see the light being reflected on her face and she

01:36:56
looks up and the the woman who was steering the boat earlier,

01:37:01
she's actually moving the boat faster because she's channeling.

01:37:07
And when I say her movements were so beautiful because she

01:37:13
looked like she was in the midst of a dance, it was so beautiful.

01:37:20
It was so like it was, it was big.

01:37:22
It was just kind of all over the place.

01:37:26
You look, you look almost like the Northern Lights.

01:37:28
Yes, it did. And Elaine wakes up naive.

01:37:32
And then the ship mistress comes to talk to them.

01:37:36
They're like, This is why we told you to stay down because,

01:37:41
you know, we didn't want you to see this.

01:37:43
And Elaine said something to her about why, you know, if you're

01:37:50
if what do what do they call them wave riders or something

01:37:54
like that? I think she's.

01:37:55
Wind finders. Wind finders.

01:37:58
So she was like, if your wind finders can channel, why don't

01:38:01
you go to the tower to learn with what they know?

01:38:05
And her response? She said there's more than one

01:38:10
way to channel. There's more than one way to be

01:38:14
a woman. And I was like, I feel like she

01:38:18
said that for Nineve's benefit because she realized Nineve has

01:38:23
a block. You know, she said.

01:38:26
She said you can't touch the source.

01:38:28
And I need says I can touch it. I just don't have any control

01:38:33
over when I can touch it. She said, of course not.

01:38:36
Channeling is like, what did she say?

01:38:38
Channeling is like the sea. You're not supposed to control

01:38:41
it. And she said, I can tell you

01:38:44
now, she said you're a person who doesn't like to give, who

01:38:48
doesn't like to let go of control.

01:38:50
And Elaine kind of Snickers because she's like, yeah, this

01:38:52
is true. She was like, I see it in both

01:38:54
of y'all. She said you don't like to give

01:38:56
up control. And then you over here, you're

01:38:59
trying. What did she say you are trying

01:39:00
to run away from? From the path.

01:39:04
You're on or you're trying to change the path you're on.

01:39:07
And Elaine looks at her like I didn't tell you to analyze, but

01:39:14
yeah, when? When?

01:39:16
They they send weak, they send weak channelers to the tower.

01:39:21
I think it's like 1A year just just to placate them and show

01:39:25
them that yeah, we're we're weak channelers.

01:39:27
Yeah, yeah, because nine, what does Nanny say?

01:39:31
She said they they say that. They say that your women are too

01:39:36
weak in the source. And she was like, yeah, that's

01:39:39
what we want y'all to think. It would be actually very

01:39:42
powerful. I I can tell.

01:39:45
Yeah. And then she tells Neneve and

01:39:48
Elaine she was like, so we, we really don't want your tower to

01:39:50
know this. And they're like, no, we're not

01:39:51
going to tell anyone. But like I said, I feel like

01:39:54
that was something Neneve needed to see.

01:39:56
Yeah, and but the other side of that is I think the cell

01:39:59
mistress thinks their eyes to die and thinks they can't lie.

01:40:04
And so that's why she wanted to make sure and also.

01:40:08
The Sea Folk. You're not supposed to break

01:40:10
your bargain with the Sea Folk. That's.

01:40:11
What you mean? It makes you pay for it.

01:40:14
The sea folk are very interesting.

01:40:16
The Athan Mahir said that right? The Athan Mahir.

01:40:21
Bless you. The Athan Mahir.

01:40:26
The Athan Mahir OK, yes, the. SEA I don't know, this isn't a

01:40:31
spoiler but all the groups do. They have a prophecy as well.

01:40:35
Yeah, OK. Yep, you said something about

01:40:37
all the groups have their own profits.

01:40:39
And there's is the core more they're waiting for the core

01:40:42
more. OK.

01:40:44
He's the one that's going to lead them to glory and to

01:40:47
control all of the Seas but. And they will swear their

01:40:52
allegiance to him for the last battle when he comes.

01:40:56
So is that the same as the Kar Khan or is this maybe a

01:41:02
different person that they're? All the prophecies point to the

01:41:07
same person reborn the core more.

01:41:11
The Kharkar is the person we all need to follow for the last

01:41:16
battle. OK.

01:41:18
Everybody has a prophecy of the one who is going to lead them

01:41:23
into the last battle. OK, so so the reason why I ask

01:41:28
that is because, and I know this is probably like so far fetched,

01:41:32
but again, I've not read the books so I don't know exactly

01:41:35
how the story goes. But I'm one of those people who

01:41:39
like, I like quest and I like stories about chosen ones and

01:41:45
all of that. But I also like stories where

01:41:51
instead of it being one person doing this grand big thing by

01:41:55
themselves, it turns out that they need a core group to do

01:42:04
different things, but they all achieve the same purpose.

01:42:08
So in my mind, I'm just wondering, OK, you have all

01:42:11
these different prophecies and they call them all these

01:42:14
different things. And this person is going to do

01:42:16
this and this person is going to do this.

01:42:18
And obviously all these people can't be in the same place at

01:42:21
the same time doing all these things.

01:42:23
So I'm just like, OK, so is it that Karen is going to be the

01:42:27
one to lead such and such? And then maybe Matt is going to

01:42:30
be the one to lead such? I'm I'm thinking of a I'm

01:42:35
thinking of Voltron. I'm thinking of five parts of

01:42:39
something coming together to create this one powerful being.

01:42:44
And I'll obviously I know they're not going to merge, but

01:42:47
I'm just kind of that that's kind of how I want it to be.

01:42:50
Like I want it to be that. OK, yeah, Rand is the Dragon

01:42:53
Reborn, but he can't be the Dragon Reborn without his

01:42:56
friends. Like that's the reason why I'm

01:42:58
forsaken are trying to turn they're his friends to the dark

01:43:02
because they want him to follow because you know, so that's

01:43:06
that's just. So the.

01:43:07
Kind of thing I like. I have two references for you.

01:43:10
OK. The first is I can't remember

01:43:13
which Terminator movie it was, but remember it was moved where

01:43:17
the Terminator said fine we can't kill John Connor.

01:43:21
So they went back to kill his lieutenants because the

01:43:27
terminate, the Skynet believed if he killed his lieutenants.

01:43:31
I think that was, I can't remember which.

01:43:34
Huh. Was it the?

01:43:36
Maybe it was the third one, but yeah, they sent, they sent

01:43:41
Terminators back to kill his lieutenants because they feel

01:43:45
like if they kill his lieutenants then he won't be

01:43:48
able to win. OK.

01:43:50
OK, and also I mentioned this before about Harry Potter.

01:43:56
The the main person, the chosen 1, still needs the support of

01:44:04
the people around him. He couldn't destroy the last

01:44:08
four crooks. Someone else had to do that.

01:44:12
He couldn't fight the battle by himself.

01:44:15
He needed other people to do that for him, right?

01:44:17
This is very similar to that. OK, but since you brought up

01:44:22
Harry Potter, you know I have to bring up the fact that the

01:44:25
prophecy could have referred to one other person and not.

01:44:30
Necessarily necessary business being on.

01:44:32
That oh OK that could be that could be the case in the wheel

01:44:35
of town like OK yeah Rand is the drag the dragon reborn, but this

01:44:40
person over here is going to be the one that's going to get the

01:44:42
shit done so I'm. Just he he needs the same way

01:44:47
the wheel spin out a with all the tools that he needs to get

01:44:52
his job done. Yeah.

01:44:55
OK. Yeah, yeah, because his battle

01:45:02
is not with the Forsaken, his battle is with the Dark One.

01:45:11
Yeah. Let me say that again.

01:45:13
I. I I know.

01:45:14
His battle is not with the Forsaken.

01:45:17
There there's nothing. His battle, the real battle, is

01:45:22
with the Dark One. OK, let everybody else deal with

01:45:25
all the other stuff. Yeah, yeah.

01:45:27
Let them fight the Forsaken, Let them fight the the Trollix.

01:45:32
He can do that in his sleep. OK.

01:45:34
That's that's not but that's not what he's that's not what his

01:45:38
intention his his job at the last battle is to face the Dark

01:45:43
One. No one else can do that.

01:45:46
Yeah, only the Dragon Reborn can do that.

01:45:48
Only the Dragon Reborn OK. And the core more the it's the

01:45:52
sea folks prophecy. The Jindai prophecy says the

01:45:57
core more will come with the breaking of the world again.

01:46:01
And the Sea Folk must be there to see the world remake.

01:46:06
OK, so OK, there was another question I was about to ask but

01:46:14
Oh no I wasn't. So they arrive in Tan Chico,

01:46:20
they get off the boat and of course, men, you know, she is

01:46:24
introduced to Naive and Elaine and Matt's like OK, so she's

01:46:29
going to go with us and blah blah blah.

01:46:31
She feels like she has a debt to pay and they're like, are we

01:46:34
sure we can trust her? And she was like, look, have

01:46:37
y'all been to Tan Chico? No, guess what I have.

01:46:41
And I said that. I said I bet you man's been to

01:46:43
Tan Chico because man, just hop on a she just hop on a cart and

01:46:47
be everywhere. How you go from fall Dara to

01:46:50
farm or fall down to Tarvalon to farm back to Tarvalon.

01:46:57
Now you intend she go? Yeah, men gets around, she gets

01:47:00
around and even I need was like I met you in fall down.

01:47:05
You're the one who told Rand he was the dragon.

01:47:07
She's like, yeah, so about that. But when they get off the boat

01:47:13
and she's giving them instructions, she was like, OK,

01:47:16
don't do this. Don't look people in the eye.

01:47:19
Don't hold your money out. She's giving them all these

01:47:21
instructions. And they're walking past.

01:47:24
Matt happens to notice something on the side.

01:47:26
And he looks up and there is a man hanging there on the docks.

01:47:33
And I was just like, Matt even look like, OK, we're going to

01:47:39
keep walking. Like he was like, I'm not, I'm

01:47:42
not paying attention to this. I'm not even about to put this

01:47:44
in my mind. OK.

01:47:45
He obviously did something that he deserved it for.

01:47:48
We're going to go this way. I'm not going to pay attention

01:47:50
to this. But I was just like, I don't

01:47:52
like the foreshadowing here. I don't.

01:47:55
Because are you trying to tell me that, Matt, that somebody's

01:47:58
going to try to kill Matt and Tan Chico?

01:48:00
I mean, if it's really as dangerous a place as they're

01:48:05
making it sound. I mean, men say don't look

01:48:08
nobody in the eye. All right, wait a second.

01:48:11
Where are we at? Right.

01:48:12
Like am I supposed to walk like this?

01:48:16
Just follow the feet in front of me and I'll be OK.

01:48:20
Don't flash the money. Don't look nobody in the eye.

01:48:23
Don't talk too loud. Don't talk too loud.

01:48:26
Damn. Like what can I do?

01:48:29
And, and I know she said that. Don't talk too loud, Matt.

01:48:32
This this pertains to you. Keep your mouth shut.

01:48:36
I'll be going around telling everybody you're the horn

01:48:39
blower. Just just be quiet.

01:48:44
Me. No think me no speaking English.

01:48:46
Just don't talk. Don't don't do nothing.

01:48:51
But I was like, OK, well, they're getting a little bit

01:48:53
closer to to Leandro. Oh, but hold on.

01:49:01
I'm trying to think. I don't remember what happened

01:49:02
at the end end of this episode. Was that was that the end them

01:49:06
them arriving in Tan Chico? Oh, no, no, no.

01:49:08
The end was Elaine jumping in everybody's dreams, which we put

01:49:12
on earlier. Yeah, we.

01:49:14
Did the only one we didn't talk about was 90s nineties which?

01:49:20
Yeah. There isn't really been say

01:49:21
about that. Of course she's going to dream

01:49:23
about that. Yeah, but.

01:49:25
And and then we talked a little bit about well, we didn't talk

01:49:29
about someone and. Yeah, that's why that's where I

01:49:32
was about to go. Yeah.

01:49:34
So, OK, so we're going to move from Tan Chico and we're going

01:49:38
to go back to the IEO waste because again, we've we talked

01:49:44
about Rand and E Gwaine and E Gwaine has been working with

01:49:48
Bear and Milan on, you know, going to tell around Riyadh.

01:49:53
We saw her have one attack by landfill once last once landfill

01:49:59
realized she was there, she was like, oh, I'm so glad you're

01:50:02
here. And I was just like, no, don't,

01:50:04
don't be glad she's there. Don't no, let's let's not do

01:50:07
this. So like we said, Moraine asks E

01:50:13
Wayne. She was like, OK, so they've

01:50:16
been teaching you how to go in and out of dreams.

01:50:18
Can you can you take me? I there's a message that I have

01:50:21
to deliver and Wayne is telling her about it being dangerous.

01:50:26
And she was like, OK, so I told you this two years ago or a few

01:50:30
years ago. So now you're telling me she was

01:50:32
like, I understand, but this is important.

01:50:35
And Wayne said, is it worth the risk?

01:50:36
Does it have anything to do with what you learned?

01:50:39
And Rewidian and Lorraine says yes, So she takes her to the Hut

01:50:43
that you know, so one and she kind of share.

01:50:48
And so they have this conversation, and this is

01:50:51
another one where, again, I feel like I'm getting more out of

01:50:57
their interactions now than I did when we first found out they

01:51:01
were together. So she comes in and she tells

01:51:06
someone that she's, you know, been through the the rings at

01:51:10
Ruidian. And that's when Suwan figures

01:51:13
out she's in the IO way. So she was like, you're in the

01:51:15
IO way. So she was like, yeah, so there

01:51:20
are two things. Like there are two things.

01:51:24
If the Tower does not bend the knee to Rand al Thor, he will

01:51:30
lose the last battle. And someone is like, oh, and

01:51:34
then Moraine is like and yeah, that's it.

01:51:37
Like, excuse me, bitch, I can count.

01:51:39
You said two things. That was 1.

01:51:41
What else are you not telling me?

01:51:43
Then she proceeded to distract someone with other stuff so she

01:51:46
wouldn't ask her about. Well, I mean, but it's

01:51:50
conversation they needed to have because of course she's still

01:51:52
upset with someone. And someone was like, what would

01:51:55
you have me do when I was in Kyrie?

01:51:57
And she was like, I had no other choice.

01:51:59
She said. What would you have done?

01:52:00
And Maria was like, what you did probably worse.

01:52:06
I mean, you know, and and that's what's the one like, sits down.

01:52:10
She tells her she was like, you know what?

01:52:12
Oh no, because Moraine says, she says to her, she said you and I

01:52:19
both had a job. My job was to find the Dragon

01:52:23
Reborn. Your job was to get the tower

01:52:26
ready. And you are not prepared.

01:52:30
And obviously someone is hurt by that because DOI is true.

01:52:36
Y'all ain't even thinking about the dragon in that way because

01:52:38
you sitting here trying to figure out who, who the, you

01:52:42
know, Black Asha are. And Lorraine tells her she was

01:52:44
like, look, you don't have any time to to not get this right.

01:52:50
And I was like, oh, that sounds so familiar because someone said

01:52:53
the same thing to her. And Karian, she was like, you

01:52:56
should have, he should have been trained and you should have had

01:52:59
him ready to fight. Lorraine's been a little bit

01:53:02
busy too, but at this point they're having that conversation

01:53:07
and Moraine is like, look, you have to get the tower ready.

01:53:11
You can't afford to make another mistake.

01:53:14
And so I was just like, I just wish we would have taken them.

01:53:17
We taking some horses or I wish we wouldn't have gone into

01:53:21
what's her name's room. Yeah, we could have just taken

01:53:25
some horses and gone. And then she tries to kiss

01:53:28
Moraine. Moraine was like, no, we broke

01:53:31
what we had. This is this is over.

01:53:34
She was like, there's no fixing this in this life.

01:53:37
And this one's like, OK, well, I'll just find you in the next

01:53:40
life or the next or the next or the next until we get it right.

01:53:46
And Lorraine is like, and I'll wait for you in every life.

01:53:49
And then she tells someone she loves her.

01:53:51
But I was like, this is what is Shameel was talking about.

01:53:55
Like I under I understand the concept of loving someone so

01:54:02
much that you're like, oh, I would be with you in every

01:54:05
lifetime, but at the same time, what if there's something better

01:54:12
for you out there in the next life?

01:54:15
You know, what if there are other opportunities?

01:54:17
What if there are other? Like what if you're supposed to

01:54:19
be doing something else, but you just keep wasting?

01:54:22
I won't even say wasting, but you just keep doing the same

01:54:26
thing over and over and over. The the benefit of it is you

01:54:30
don't remember. That's it's Shamel's fault that

01:54:35
he figured out a way to remember his previous slides.

01:54:39
That's on him. Repeat what you just said.

01:54:43
That's on on Ishmael for. Before you said that, you said

01:54:48
the benefit of that is. You don't remember your previous

01:54:52
life. Does that does that apply to

01:54:58
Rand al Thor as well as far as land fear goes?

01:55:03
There are reasons is is different.

01:55:09
If you are the person who went mad and is tainted, there's

01:55:22
there's. I just had to do it.

01:55:24
Well, there's something there's something that's kind of missing

01:55:28
and from the show and from Rand that hopefully it's coming, but

01:55:38
aligning with the books, it should be soon.

01:55:41
OK. It should start happening to

01:55:43
him. OK, it's not yet, but maybe when

01:55:47
he starts chowing more it'll start happening.

01:55:51
OK, Yeah, I just had to mess with you about that because we,

01:55:54
I know we've had can't remember your previous life.

01:55:57
Yeah, Yeah. But, and I think it is, I think

01:56:03
they're suddenly because they do a lot of subtle hinting on the

01:56:07
show. They really do you.

01:56:08
Don't know. If you don't know what to be

01:56:10
looking for, you'll miss it. And there's been a couple of

01:56:15
times when I could tell something was happening to rent,

01:56:21
but they're not really. Yeah, it's not explicit.

01:56:29
And as fast as they're moving with the Gwen with the dream

01:56:31
walking, I thought they would move faster with the other

01:56:34
thing. OK.

01:56:35
And but we'll talk about that later.

01:56:37
OK, when it when it gets to that point.

01:56:40
Yeah. OK, OK.

01:56:44
Yeah, so we got couples fighting, couples kind of sort

01:56:48
of making up. I don't think Moraine and Suwan

01:56:50
are going to be one of those couples.

01:56:52
And then, of course, after after that, this is where we get to a

01:56:57
Wayne dream walking because she's trying to give Moraine and

01:57:00
Swan some privacy as they discuss whatever Moraine comes

01:57:04
to discuss. So we talked about it early.

01:57:07
She sees Paren. Paren is, you know, at his forge

01:57:12
in the Two Rivers. File is with him.

01:57:14
So is Hopper. And he looks happy.

01:57:16
And she looks kind of surprised because she was like, oh, you

01:57:19
went home and found someone like, OK, good for you parent.

01:57:22
We talked about Matt with his mother and his sisters.

01:57:27
She sees she's on the boat and she sees Elaine, and Elaine is

01:57:32
one of the wind finders. She's sitting there and she's.

01:57:36
Yeah, of. Course, Elaine's dreaming about

01:57:38
that. She's dreaming about that, and

01:57:40
then Ivanda shows up in her Maiden of the Spear outfit and

01:57:45
she looks more like Ivanda to me because I was like, it's almost

01:57:49
like they're two different people.

01:57:50
The change from the Maiden of the Spirit of the Under to Wise.

01:57:56
I think also with her being the Wise 1, I don't think she has on

01:58:00
any eye makeup and she she has like a little bit of eyeliner

01:58:05
when she's in the Maiden costumes.

01:58:08
I think that's one of the things that makes her different.

01:58:10
But of course she's dreaming of that and she's happy.

01:58:14
Naive is at the stream in the Two Rivers and she is with her

01:58:21
daughter teaching her how to feel the wind just like she did

01:58:25
with E Gwen. And I was just like y'all keep

01:58:30
tearing my heart out this episode please stop.

01:58:32
Come on, come on, Get to the good one.

01:58:33
Get to the good one. Then we get to the last one.

01:58:38
Rand is on his mountain. Then we didn't talk about him

01:58:41
and land for you having a conversation, right?

01:58:44
Yeah, because she she confessed that she loved him.

01:58:46
So Rand is on the mountain. She sees him, and then all of a

01:58:50
sudden she sees a woman's hand come up to his neck.

01:58:56
And she gets startled and it's Landfair kissing Ran.

01:59:00
And when she turns her head, she's looking directly at a

01:59:04
Gwaine. And a Gwaine has this

01:59:06
recollection of all the times this woman has been in her

01:59:11
dreams, even the times when she thought it was Rena.

01:59:13
Now she's seeing Landfair's face.

01:59:15
It's like now that Landfair has made herself known to her, she

01:59:18
realizes that that's who's been in her dreams the whole time.

01:59:22
She left out a screen and then the fucking episode goes up.

01:59:25
I was like, y'all muff. So you know, it's about to be

01:59:31
some, it's about to be some drama.

01:59:35
Like I think Brandon Iguan are about to break up for real now

01:59:38
because what, you're kissing the bitch that's been trying to kill

01:59:44
me and tell her? She don't know how she's been I.

01:59:48
Know, but I can guarantee you she ain't thinking about that.

01:59:53
She's like, you're first of all, who is this bitch that you're

01:59:57
kissing? Because as far as I know, I'm

01:59:59
the only woman that's been in your life.

02:00:01
Let's start there. First of all, let's not be tapes

02:00:05
in through men's dreams. That well, that too.

02:00:08
That too, like you said, you, you know, you, you're doing this

02:00:12
without permission. So you might see some things

02:00:15
that you don't like is a good thing.

02:00:17
She didn't see them in the in the little the little end.

02:00:21
She does that in the books too. You talk about Matt not having

02:00:25
boundaries and Gwen had no boundaries.

02:00:27
Really. And they?

02:00:28
Told her don't do it, it's very private and personal and she's

02:00:32
like, yeah, no, I got I'm good, you know, E Wayne as as a.

02:00:43
So, you know, I don't even like it when landfill does it.

02:00:46
So the fact that E Wayne is doing that, I'm like, these are

02:00:49
people that you love. Even even the Forsaken sort of

02:00:53
had some decorum about it. Wayne didn't care.

02:00:58
That's bad when you say the Forsaken have manners and she

02:01:01
doesn't. She doesn't.

02:01:03
She didn't. No, she didn't.

02:01:04
She really didn't. She becomes a bitch.

02:01:08
I'm just going to tell you now. She turns to a bitch.

02:01:10
In the books she does. I'm going to be honest, I can

02:01:19
see it, especially after the way she handled Swan and the other

02:01:23
sisters when she went through the arches.

02:01:26
Yeah, I can see it. I can.

02:01:31
OK, I can't believe she did that.

02:01:40
That's just like I said, I understand.

02:01:43
You want to see, you know, you're missing your friends.

02:01:46
You want to see them. You want to make sure they're

02:01:48
OK. And right now, that is the only

02:01:51
way that you can do that. I I get it.

02:01:54
Yeah, I think I remember. I feel like I remember the one

02:01:59
of the first lessons they taught her was dreams are very personal

02:02:04
and private and you really don't want to go into that.

02:02:08
And here's the thing, that shouldn't be something that she

02:02:11
has to be taught. Yeah, because how would she feel

02:02:14
if Ran just walked up? Well, I mean, she probably,

02:02:18
she's probably dreaming about Ran half the time anyway, so she

02:02:21
probably wouldn't care. But still it's like, why would

02:02:24
you do that? You know, don't do that.

02:02:27
It was it was easy for her because she's a dream Walker.

02:02:31
It's easy for them to do. Now I guess my question is, as a

02:02:39
dream Walker, do the other people see her in their dreams?

02:02:47
Not sure. I think there might be.

02:02:51
It might be a conscious choice. OK.

02:02:55
Or I was going to say, can she allow them to see her and

02:02:58
they're just like, if she really she would see her OK.

02:03:02
Sure, because if she need talk to him or give him a message,

02:03:06
yeah. OK.

02:03:10
But if she was sneaking around, trying to gather information,

02:03:14
trying to eavesdrop on people, then no, they wouldn't see her.

02:03:19
And see, that's that's the. Yeah, that sounds so wrong it.

02:03:24
Does I mean I can see how it can be useful like OK, I can go jump

02:03:30
in this dream and see what this bad person is doing.

02:03:32
If I know this person is a black actual, I can do that.

02:03:35
But that that's where your morals come in, because even

02:03:40
though yes, these are bad people, these are people who

02:03:44
probably could be fighting something evil whatever.

02:03:49
If you can't have respect for them in their inside their own

02:03:53
mind, then you don't have respect.

02:03:57
I mean, it's just just because they're bad, that doesn't give

02:04:00
you that, right? Even though I know there are

02:04:03
times where we'll probably be like, oh, they they're bad.

02:04:05
They did this, they did that. I think I don't.

02:04:11
Know, even even if it's not right that Rand is fooling

02:04:14
around to her in her dreams, it's still it doesn't make it

02:04:17
any more right for her to go into his dream and peep in on

02:04:22
him. And just because you can, does

02:04:26
it mean? You should, yeah.

02:04:29
But here's the other thing. Why are you trying to sneak up

02:04:35
and spend time with him in his dreams, but you're not spending

02:04:39
time with him in real life? I'm just saying if I have a

02:04:47
choice between, I mean, I, I guess, you know, a person can

02:04:50
touch, you can touch a person in their dreams or whatever.

02:04:53
So maybe it's not that different in that sense.

02:04:57
But if I have to choose between being in a dream with someone or

02:05:02
being with them in real life and you know, you know that there's

02:05:05
issues, you know, that there's kind of a strain on the

02:05:08
relationship. You know, there's a divide.

02:05:10
And you know, there's something that you might either need to

02:05:14
fix or you need to just kind of get it out there and say, OK,

02:05:19
this is not working anymore. We need to just end this, be be

02:05:23
clean about it. But you want to go visit him in

02:05:26
his dreams. You could you could have walked

02:05:28
back to the tent to visit him. I mean, I, I guess if you're

02:05:31
sitting there waiting for Moraine to get done and tell her

02:05:34
on Riyadh, we don't know what happened with her and Swan after

02:05:37
she actually consented to that kiss.

02:05:39
They could be in there fooling around right now.

02:05:41
And Iguan is just like, OK, how long am I going to have to wait?

02:05:46
She's finding things to do because you don't want to leave

02:05:49
Moraine and tell her on Riyadh by herself.

02:05:52
Right, Right. But.

02:05:55
I'm not sure if they're in turn around Riyad or they're in

02:05:57
Salon's dream. Oh, it's in Salon's dream.

02:06:00
Yeah. But yeah, I don't.

02:06:04
I don't like the way that I don't like the way that's going.

02:06:08
But I bet she was. So effortlessly.

02:06:12
So effortlessly. Yeah, what was it Milan said?

02:06:15
She was like, she she learns too fast and, and Milan seems to

02:06:19
have a problem with how fast Elaine Iguane is picking that up

02:06:24
because she said something about that when she came back after

02:06:27
Landfill tried to kill her in In the dream.

02:06:29
She was like, she learns too fast.

02:06:31
She takes too much on too quick. It was like, wouldn't you want

02:06:35
her to learn fast so she could learn how to defend herself?

02:06:40
No, because then she does stupid shit like.

02:06:42
This like this, Yeah, yeah, so. So I I gave this episode, it's a

02:06:49
solid 8.5 is really an info dump the right position a lot it it

02:06:55
wasn't even like set up. It was just a lot of lore, you

02:06:59
know, a lot of background information and whatnot.

02:07:02
So. Except.

02:07:03
It was still pretty good. Except for the the 2 river

02:07:06
stuff. The 2 river stuff is.

02:07:11
Well, they finally answered the question.

02:07:15
A lot of them answered the question while she was there.

02:07:18
Yeah. She was there, a raising army.

02:07:20
An army. Is he a raising army?

02:07:23
But can we not get shot with arrows first?

02:07:25
Because you can't raise the army if you're dead?

02:07:28
I need you to be a little more mindful.

02:07:29
A lot of when Maxim tells you that you got white clothes down

02:07:33
there, you don't think they're going to sniff out some

02:07:35
channeling? Listen to the man.

02:07:38
Yeah. Oh, saddle with the with the

02:07:41
cloud cover. We had to have some action, but

02:07:43
other than that, this is a it was a decent episode.

02:07:47
And I was tripping about the white clothes because when they

02:07:50
snuck into the camp, one of the white cloaks came out of the

02:07:54
tent and he was very visibly, very drunk.

02:07:59
He's moving around. I'm like, aren't y'all worried

02:08:02
about Trollix? Like aren't y'all there because

02:08:05
Trollix are attacking and you're drunk?

02:08:08
But for for the most part, I think it was sort of maybe a

02:08:11
reference for book reads. For the most part, white cloaks

02:08:14
in the books, I'm not going to say a their joke, but they ain't

02:08:21
the greatest fighters. They're not the greatest army in

02:08:24
the world. They they're sort of, they are

02:08:28
sort of the joke in the book. That guy who they would get.

02:08:32
Serious. A little bit later with

02:08:34
leadership changes, but yeah. That guy who Valder was talking

02:08:40
to, he was like hey do you want to go learn how to how to catch

02:08:44
a real witch or something? When Valda walked off that dude

02:08:48
was looking at him like am I really supposed to do this?

02:08:52
He was looking like I do not want to be here, why am I here?

02:08:56
Yeah, he's a he's a character. He's a character from the book.

02:08:59
Everybody knows. Oh, OK.

02:09:01
I don't think he's going to be important.

02:09:03
Just like, just like that person that they turned into a Gray

02:09:06
man. He was a he was a fairly.

02:09:08
Chai chim do. You want to.

02:09:11
Be a Gray man. Yeah, Yeah.

02:09:15
OK. So this.

02:09:17
Let's see how these things, how these things play out.

02:09:20
Yeah, so this was episode 5. We have three more episodes.

02:09:25
Right now. There is no news of whether or

02:09:30
not it's going to be renewed for Season 4.

02:09:33
Yeah, I think I really. That's worrisome.

02:09:36
I think I read somewhere there's a petition or something.

02:09:41
Could be, but also I think I read an article, actually, there

02:09:45
were a couple of articles this morning talking about how the

02:09:49
ratings have gone up and how the viewership has increased with

02:09:55
season 3. They're like the viewership

02:09:57
numbers are crazy. So there's like why is it not

02:10:01
renewed yet? And I'm like, y'all know these

02:10:03
streaming platforms, they like to play these stupid games.

02:10:08
So I'm just if y'all don't renew the show after this season,

02:10:13
after the way this season is going, this season has been

02:10:16
phenomenal so far. If y'all don't renew this show

02:10:23
after this season I just I I don't know what to say like.

02:10:32
Read the books. I mean, and I'll do that, but

02:10:35
still, I'm a, as I get older, my interest is more visual because

02:10:41
I can't sit and focus for long enough to read a book.

02:10:45
It's just, you know, I'm about to be 50.

02:10:48
You know, as I have on my vintage 1975 show, I'm about to

02:10:52
be 50. I just don't have that kind of

02:10:53
concentration anymore. And these books are thick as

02:10:57
hell. Yeah, they they hear pretty.

02:11:00
So no. I told you the last book is the

02:11:03
last battle, and it's one of the thicker books.

02:11:08
I know that's what that's the one I have sitting on my shelf

02:11:12
right now and I'm like, oh I remember when I used to read a

02:11:15
book like this in like 2 days now we'll see.

02:11:22
I mean everybody talks about how good the books are.

02:11:25
So if I can get into. No, that that was a lie because

02:11:30
books 567 and 8. Yes, you've mentioned that

02:11:33
before. You have mentioned that before.

02:11:36
You have mentioned that. But I mean, if I can, if I won,

02:11:40
if I can get the time, because we know with my schedule time,

02:11:45
what's that extra time? You want time to, you want time

02:11:48
to sit down and read a book for our work too.

02:11:51
What the hell? I don't know.

02:11:54
But if I can find the time and then if I could like get into it

02:11:59
and just kind of focus, then I might do it.

02:12:02
But I want to say I, I've, I've really fallen in love with the

02:12:06
way these actors portray these characters, even the evil ones,

02:12:10
they are so good. So it's kind of like, I want to

02:12:13
see them finish the story out. And I mean, you've got enough

02:12:18
material to go through for several seasons.

02:12:24
Just don't fuck it up. So but yeah, I I hope we get a

02:12:28
season 4 announcement soon. But Anthony, you have any final

02:12:33
thoughts on this episode? Nope.

02:12:36
Wayne, stay out of folks dreams. That's all I'm going to say so.

02:12:41
She's going to turn into Cassandra when in Deadpool.

02:12:47
