Doris Burke; Collinsworth; Ruocco; Breen; Cowherd

In the discussion (3)
Approx. transcript time · 01:03:13Read transcript
  • Doris commentary addresses Miss Joni after decades preparing for King Paimon, removing Charlie and destroying the Graham family so he can take male form.
  • Collinsworth cautions against sticking a head outside a moving car; Ruocco’s Got It and Breen’s Bang are applied to the decapitation.
  • Cowherd-style analysis treats Paimon as the dominant executive who knows the salary cap.

Apex Mountain

Decapitations; Alex Wolff; self-beheading with piano wire; coffee before reporting a charred father (joke)

In the discussion (8)
Approx. transcript time · 01:07:53Read transcript
  • A24 loses to Everything Everywhere All at Once.
  • Collette receives initial affirmative support but is disputed in favor of Little Miss Sunshine’s career impact, with her sustained work and Knives Out noted.
  • Nut allergies and fatal child reactions are proposed; Charlie’s death is compared with the child in Jaws and another child’s fatal bee reaction.
  • Decapitation scenes are accepted over examples from Ran and Black Rain; the pole death and audible piano-wire death compete as highlights.
  • Wolff is accepted; Byrne is rejected for his 1990s work, including The Usual Suspects and Miller’s Crossing.
  • Evil treehouses are proposed as an especially strong case.
  • The Good Son and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice supply treehouse alternatives; self-beheading with piano wire is accepted, while séances and Utah are rejected or unclear.
  • Making coffee after discovering a charred father before calling police is jokingly affirmed.

Probably Unanswerable Questions

Allergy or possession; cult’s timing; demon hierarchy; Paimon’s powers

In the discussion (6)
Approx. transcript time · 01:09:23Read transcript
  • Whether Charlie’s crisis is an ordinary allergy or Paimon directing events is debated; the marked pole and possible cult placement of the deer imply orchestrated fate.
  • Whether the family already has wealth from the grandmother’s pact is wondered about, leading to jokes about Paimon supplying investment and betting tips.
  • Whether Paimon returns to school or ever inhabited Annie during intimacy is debated; one reading limits her possession to the period after Steve’s death, another points to roaming blue light.
  • The wisdom of séances and the eight kings’ hierarchy, territories, collaboration and place beneath Satan are left unanswered amid organizational jokes.
  • A possible omitted cult-sex scene is wondered about, with Midsommar offered as where Aster later explored that material.
  • Why the cult waited so long to transfer Paimon from Charlie to Peter is unanswered, with maturity offered as a guess.

Picking Nits

Uncontrolled weed; unknown Joan; family choices; bedroom locks; police absence

In the discussion (6)
Approx. transcript time · 01:13:47Read transcript
  • Peter’s heavy marijuana use seems unchecked and may cloud his judgment; whether the cult influences it or he supplies friends is speculative.
  • Annie failing to recognize her mother’s close friend Joan seems unlikely, though estrangement and secrecy offer an explanation.
  • Steve marrying and remaining with Annie despite extreme family history and alarming behavior is questioned; attraction and her artistic success are offered as comic explanations.
  • Sending thirteen-year-old Charlie to Peter’s high-school gathering seems questionable, with wanting children out of the house or supernatural influence offered as possibilities.
  • Peter should have multiple bedroom locks after the paint-thinner incident, prompting a mock home-improvement advertisement.
  • The apparent absence of police questioning, investigation and public reporting after a child’s violent death is questioned, especially given Peter’s intoxication and return to school.

Sequel, Prequel, Limited Series, or All-Black Remake

Prestige series; Paimon’s reign; Pazuzu crossover joke

In the discussion (2)
Approx. transcript time · 01:19:38Read transcript
  • A prestige-series version is considered, but a sequel following Paimon’s reign inside Peter is particularly appealing despite lacking an obvious opposing family member.
  • A joking crossover would pit Paimon against The Exorcist’s Pazuzu.
