Unknown Speaker 0:00
I've been forgetting to tell you about this, but I was going to sleep one night and just, you know, thinking about all the cringe stuff I did throughout the day, as you do when you go to sleep. And usually, like, usually in my head when I think about cringe stuff I do, I also just have a little inner voice just going, like, full blast, but yeah, as I was going to sleep, I actually kind of let out, like, a little Ah. I didn't even realize I was doing it. And I felt like, Brandon, kind of like, turned around, and then I was like, Oh, my Oh, I have something coming out of my mouth. Wow. Welcome to Nervous Laughter Podcast.
Unknown Speaker 1:07
I'm Jamie.
I'm Alyssa.
Unknown Speaker 1:12
Yeah. Do you experience a similar ah, the inner things?
Unknown Speaker 1:22
sometimes yes, I feel like I've definitely become better at just being like, it doesn't matter. Oh yeah. So I feel like I think about things from the past. Oh, okay, yeah. I didn't really feel that way, so that never got applied to that scenario. So then I have to go in and be like, uh, maybe it wasn't that bad. But yeah, yeah, yeah, they're definitely still there's some things that pop up though. Sorry, yeah, no, no. Just like, yet sometimes I just like, misspeak and stuff, or make up my impression, and I'm just like, ah,
Unknown Speaker 2:03
but yeah,
Unknown Speaker 2:06
today we're gonna be talking about some holiday movies, as we've done in the past. So it's about that time I'm shaking some pretend Jingle bells,
Unknown Speaker 2:18
jingle
Unknown Speaker 2:21
and I know, before I talked about the movie a Christmas in Mississippi, oh,
Unknown Speaker 2:28
I don't know how I didn't realize this when I watched it, but I know some of the people like in the background and stuff, yeah, it
Unknown Speaker 2:38
was funny. I was I hit one of them up, and I was like, oh shit. I didn't even realize you were in this. And she was like, Yeah, I also did, like, you know, this
Unknown Speaker 2:47
be sci fi movie, which we she actually recommended we should talk about it sometime. So, like, I might actually like, Yeah, I'll check that out and maybe we'll talk about it. But just a funny little memory, I guess, with her is we actually
Unknown Speaker 3:01
made movies. Well, maybe it was just one movie, but yeah, when we were, like, in elementary school, and we called it like House on Haunted stilts,
Unknown Speaker 3:14
and there was something about like us a haunted like a spoon, that was like,
Unknown Speaker 3:19
did you actually,
Unknown Speaker 3:21
yeah,
Unknown Speaker 3:24
stilts. Like her house
Unknown Speaker 3:29
was on stilts, I see. And that was funny, because, like, her mom was like, you guys realize that, like, you're implying the stilts are haunted. And I was like, Oh, I guess I that makes it.
Unknown Speaker 3:44
So, yeah, we we did that.
Unknown Speaker 3:47
But, yeah, it's cool, because she's doing not, like big movie stuff now, but like, you know, local things that are fun, and Christmas and Mississippi is a big movie, so I guess so that was it filmed like, in your area where you grew up, or did you have to travel to be in it. Oh, no. It's like, right there, like, it's Jones Park. Well, I mean, I don't know where all the thing is, but the whole thing's around, like, making the Jones Park, like, Christmas come alive, or whatever, or setting it up.
Unknown Speaker 4:16
But, yeah, so no, it's so, yeah, I was like, right there, like, where I grew up, and like, we go to that park on the holidays sometimes and stuff and see all the lights and everything. So it's just like everything from the movies. Like, there you're in Christmas in Mississippi. Yeah, it was legitimately in Mississippi. And so I, maybe, I, yeah, I don't know why. I don't look for people that I would maybe know in the background, but yeah, there is a few people. So that's cool, and I just wanted to bring that up. Yeah, we had something like that here. Have you ever seen varsity blues with James Van Der Beek? I haven't, but I hear it referenced all the time. Yeah, so.
Unknown Speaker 5:00
In case you weren't a teenage girl in the late 90s, James Van Der bee was a big heartthrob, and he was Dawson on Dawson's Creek.
Unknown Speaker 5:10
But they filmed at least part of Varsity blues here. And I've actually never seen it. I do kind of want to watch it now to see if there's anybody I know in the background, yeah, but yeah, they filmed it at Georgetown, where I grew up. Oh cool at their little like football stadium. So like, my sister in law and brother in law were like extras in that and Oh, cool. Did they rename the football field like Van Der Beek
Unknown Speaker 5:40
anymore? But
Unknown Speaker 5:42
they didn't. But, yeah, it was a big deal for because Georgetown used to be pretty small. Now it's kind of big, but big time with Varsity blues. Yeah, varsity blues put
Unknown Speaker 5:55
you guys on the map, just like Christmas and Mississippi put gulf coast on the map,
Unknown Speaker 6:00
on the map. But I guess if anyone is a fan of that movie, it's cool, because they can just go and actually experience like, yeah, the same thing. I guess so.
Unknown Speaker 6:09
But yeah, I think you had some Yeah, some movies, but you want to experience amnesia Christmas. Yeah, you're in the right place. Amnesia, Christmas. Yes, yes, not Christmas without a good amnesia. Not
Unknown Speaker 6:26
so. Welcome to the third annual Christmas amnesia movie.
Unknown Speaker 6:32
Yeah, I keep thinking about the quote from that one where it's like amnesia is real, huh?
Unknown Speaker 6:40
That was last year, I believe. But,
Unknown Speaker 6:43
yeah, fourth year in a row, doing a movie, but fell into the amnesia Christmas category, which is a surprisingly large genre.
Unknown Speaker 6:54
There's still several others for me to do in the following years or upcoming years. Perfect. Yeah, this one is an actual Hallmark movie, which I've never done, a hallmark, branded one. Oh, okay, so you're in for a real treat. In for a real treat if you like really shitty things.
Unknown Speaker 7:15
So carboy number three joined me for this viewing.
Unknown Speaker 7:21
We watched the 2016 Hallmark classic, a Christmas to remember. Oh, which is funny, because she doesn't remember.
Unknown Speaker 7:30
I just realized that
Unknown Speaker 7:34
so ironic it is
Unknown Speaker 7:38
so it stars Mira Sorvino, which I didn't realize until we were well, gee, realized it while we were watching She plays Romi and Romi and Michelle's high school reunion, just one of my favorite movies. I love that movie.
Unknown Speaker 7:54
Anybody needs to make a call. I've got a phone
Unknown Speaker 7:58
a little Yeah. Sorry. I feel like you were gonna say something first, and then I cut you off. Oh, no. I was thinking of like, one of them has, like, a really deep voice. I just think of all the time.
Unknown Speaker 8:09
I can't remember which one it is with the deeper voice. I think it's Romy, no, Michelle, yeah, that sounds right, yeah, because Michelle is Lisa Kudrow, and she's more like, yeah,
Unknown Speaker 8:20
ding, banish.
Unknown Speaker 8:22
And then there's also a Disney Channel girl in it. L McKinnon, I forgot to write down which Disney Channel girl that or which show that is, but it was on like in the late 2010s
Unknown Speaker 8:37
I think I'm googling Gabby durin and the uncitables. Oh, this is L McKinnon. I think she was a Christmas to remember and,
Unknown Speaker 8:49
oh, sorry, I thought you're reading the name of the show. I thought, yeah, sorry, no.
Unknown Speaker 8:55
I was like, that takes that like her name.
Unknown Speaker 8:59
She plays Gabby Baran. She's also in wonder, and that, um, that new movie, heretic, sorry.
Unknown Speaker 9:11
Heretic, Oh, is she one of the main characters, like the two girls that are, I'm not sure. I don't seen it. I'm just, oh yeah, I think she is. It says, like, teenage, teenager, two. Okay, cool, yeah. So, yeah, the check. That's a new movie. That's out. Yeah, I'm gonna go see that. Rotten Tomatoes gave this movie a 41%
Unknown Speaker 9:32
okay, that's actually higher than I expected. Google users, 74% of people liked it. I'm like, What the fuck
Unknown Speaker 9:41
this was, I will say, this was the worst amnesia Christmas movie I've watched. Okay? It was not good, yeah, I gotta say, homework. Movies are
Unknown Speaker 9:51
never good in my experience. Yeah, I was hoping for more funny, cringe, but it
Unknown Speaker 9:58
was kind of just bad.
Unknown Speaker 10:00
Just yeah, like, I thought about watch because Christmas in Mississippi is a Hallmark movie too. And I thought about watching it to actually look for the extras, because my sister told me about it. And then as I was like, looking it up, I was like, because I was telling Brandon, I was like, Yeah, I'm gonna put that on. And then I was like, yeah, it doesn't
Unknown Speaker 10:21
really feel worth it.
Unknown Speaker 10:25
My personal recommendation, if you want to watch a shitty Christmas movie is the first one I ever did,
Unknown Speaker 10:32
Christmas and handcuffs. I think it was with Melissa. Yeah, that one was fun. What about the was the Lindsay
Unknown Speaker 10:40
that would be my second choice, yeah, okay. It actually goes in order first year to now, that's my order I would rank, okay, yeah, discuss progressive, yeah,
Unknown Speaker 10:52
but wait for next year. Yeah, it's gonna be awful. So the movie begins with Jennifer, which is Romi.
Unknown Speaker 11:02
She lives in New York, and she's kind of like a Martha Stewart type lady. Okay, she has her TV show that she does, like a little cooking show, and she's having a fucking melt meltdown on the set because she doesn't like the color green. And there's, like, too much green in the set. I can already just picture this in Hallmark fashion.
Unknown Speaker 11:30
Romy forgot how to act in this movie like she is awful the whole time. She just wants that they're like, you have to deliver a bad performance flat and have no personality or inflection ever. It's awful. So she's freaking out. And then I guess she's doing like, a Thanksgiving setup, holiday setup, whatever. So they're waiting on this turkey, and then the person brings the turkey in, and it's just like, throws it on her shirt, and it ruins her shirt, and then it's just freaking out through Turkey on her shirt. Yeah, full turkey hit her shirt and hit the ground. I gotta say, that's pretty creative. It's usually a liquid, yeah, this was something that can fall apart easily, but a whole freaking bird. I'll have to put a clip on the podcast, because that was entertaining.
Unknown Speaker 12:25
So her manager, slash friend Paula, is like, Hey, I'm having a Christmas party after work. Like, no, you had a hard time with the turkey shirt thing. But like, you should come to the party, and if you do, I have a special treat for you? I'm gonna send you to Aspen, and you can, like, go to the spa and relax and stuff, but you have to come to this party first, so to earn it, to earn it, yeah, so she goes to the party, and we meet her douchey boyfriend, and his name is, of course, Brad
Unknown Speaker 13:01
V Bradley, Brad short,
Unknown Speaker 13:05
so Brad is a sportscaster, and it's kind of seems like they're like in an arranged marriage for celebrities. I mean, they're not married, like at statuses, yeah. So it seems like Paula, her manager, she's kind of like hyping Brad up, and Rome doesn't really care, but yeah, so wait sorry for his show, hyping him up for what? Sorry, oh, just like hyping him up. Like, oh yeah, you and Brad are like, a really good couple. Like, okay, okay. She just wants them to be together as like a power couple, and thinks it'll be like, good for both of their images, American marriage, exactly. Yeah, Taylor Swift and whatever her boyfriend. Travis Kelsey, yeah, there you go.
Unknown Speaker 13:55
So we find out that Brad is a tool, because why wouldn't he be? But at the party, he's like, checking out other girls. They didn't get Turkey thrown on the Yeah. Jennifer's had a hard time with the turkey. So after the party, Jennifer and Paula are having some wine, and they're talking about Jennifer's dead mom.
Unknown Speaker 14:19
Why is that funny?
Unknown Speaker 14:22
Yeah, they're just like,
Unknown Speaker 14:25
Christmas hasn't been special anymore since I lost my mom, and it's just like, so I'm not laughing at people losing their mom. Obviously, we're not, but it's just like, so trite, and just like, come on, yes, yes. And it's done fashion. That's stupid, yeah, and I'm sure it was, like, poorly acted,
Unknown Speaker 14:52
yeah, it's just It was horrible, this baking cookies, yeah, it was like, That, like,
Unknown Speaker 14:59
uh.
Unknown Speaker 15:00
Um,
Unknown Speaker 15:01
so they're reminiscing about good Christmases and like how Christmas sucks now and then she leaves and she's gonna go prep for her trip to Aspen.
Unknown Speaker 15:12
So
Unknown Speaker 15:15
then it cuts to this cute little winter town, and we see Dr John Blake, ooh, mcdemie, hey, mcste me, except he's a vet. Okay, he's like MC doggy.
Unknown Speaker 15:31
The girls call me MC doggy, not because I'm a vet, because the bedroom,
Unknown Speaker 15:37
I like doing it MC doggy, and
Unknown Speaker 15:41
that's what I'm going to be calling him from here on out. Is MC doggy.
Unknown Speaker 15:46
So he's a vet, and he his wife died, and he has three kids, you know, because why wouldn't he? Yeah, I can.
Unknown Speaker 15:57
Women have to die. Successful. Hallmark maybe was his wife, the chick's mom.
Unknown Speaker 16:07
That would be amazing if she was
Unknown Speaker 16:10
let's see. So we see mcdogie on a date with this girl named Brooke, and he and Brooke went to high school together, and I guess now, mcdoggy can't say it with a straight A.
Unknown Speaker 16:26
He's kind of like, open to dating again. And so Brooke is like, oh yeah. Like, I'm glad that we can reconnect. You know, like, after your wife died, and it's like a really fucking awkward
Unknown Speaker 16:40
What are you doing?
Unknown Speaker 16:43
I like the opener of just like, mentioning the dead wife, yeah, she's just like, yeah, since your wife died, like, it's good, you're getting back out there. Like, Oh bad.
Unknown Speaker 16:58
So after the date,
Unknown Speaker 17:01
MC doggy,
Unknown Speaker 17:03
go help a horse give birth.
Unknown Speaker 17:09
And I had the closed captions on because, you know, it's how we roll, and the horse made a sound, and it said, horse knickering, which I've, I've never heard, never heard that he bickering before. It's weird,
Unknown Speaker 17:25
but he helps deliver the baby horse, and then the owner is like, I can't pay you right now. How about this apple pie?
Unknown Speaker 17:37
Because they're like, in a small town, and it's like, we help each other. Tis the season. Yeah. So MC doggy is, you know, the show, and he's a little sweetheart, and he's like, of course, you can pay me later.
Unknown Speaker 17:53
Fucking dumb.
Unknown Speaker 17:55
And so then we cut back to Jennifer. She's getting off the airplane, getting into her rental car, and she's driving through a horrible fucking snowstorm, and she's totally lost, of course, yeah, she's pulling up her GPS, and it just shows, like a line. It doesn't show where she is or anything. And she decides that this is a good time to fuck with the radio. Just turns it on and starts trying to find a song that she likes. Oh, okay. I mean, yeah, the GPS, yeah. I can barely see snowing. I need a good song to listen. Yeah. I always have to turn the music down when I'm trying to go. If
Unknown Speaker 18:37
there's any kind of stress, I'm like radio off, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 18:41
And the opposite, yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 18:44
So G and I are both yelling. We're like, Stop, like, look at the fucking rug
Unknown Speaker 18:51
it's doing. And then, of course, she crashes. I don't even remember how it happens. It's just stupid. But in my notes, I wrote then Jennifer crashes because she's a dipshit fucking with the radio, fucking with the radio, so mcdogh and his son Kyle end up seeing her on the side of the road because she stumbles out doing literally the worst acting I've ever seen. She's like, whoa,
Unknown Speaker 19:24
like she's drowning.
Unknown Speaker 19:29
It was awful.
Unknown Speaker 19:31
I don't know why she did it that way.
Unknown Speaker 19:35
She says she doesn't know where she is or who she is or anything, and she has a little cut on her head,
Unknown Speaker 19:45
so she gets in the truck with MC doggy and his son, Kyle, and she sits on the pie.
Unknown Speaker 19:53
And Kyle, he's a little boy. He's like you sat on a pie. You.
Unknown Speaker 20:00
You stupid bitch, dumb bitch, you sit on my pie. That was payment birthing a horse. Yeah, we just birthed the horse, and now we have to deal with this shit. Yeah, not a pie.
Unknown Speaker 20:13
So she gets in the truck and does the thing that you're not supposed to do with the head injury. She just falls asleep, and they're like, Yeah, that's cool. She looks so beautiful when she sleeps. Like, dude, you're a fucking doctor. I know it's an animal doctor, but like, I feel like it's common knowledge. You don't go to sleep with head injuries. Yeah, you don't know that fat heads now you do. Don't fall asleep. You will die, maybe.
Unknown Speaker 20:42
So they take her home, because, of course, you know, the snow storms getting worse, and they can't go anywhere, so they have to take her home.
Unknown Speaker 20:51
So
Unknown Speaker 20:53
she ends up falling asleep, or, you know, like sleeping through the night. Somebody put her in pajamas, which is fucking weird. I'm like, is this the dead wife's pajamas? Like, all of this is weird. Oh, yeah, hmm, yeah. But probably is been just like, you know, he had to, like, take her clothes off and change her Yeah? Well, I like that, yeah, it's creepy. But luckily, it ends up being the grandma, whose name is bunny. Oh, okay, good, good, yeah, and it's not clear if bunny is like the deceased lady's mom or McDo, I don't really know, or anyone's mom, very
Unknown Speaker 21:34
good point. I haven't wanted
Unknown Speaker 21:37
to be a grandma.
Unknown Speaker 21:39
Just joined their family that might be me, since I'm not gonna
Unknown Speaker 21:46
be grandma bunny
Unknown Speaker 21:49
changing ladies while they're sleeping with
Unknown Speaker 21:53
pajamas on you,
Unknown Speaker 21:58
just like a little grandma gobbler.
Unknown Speaker 22:08
So we meet the rest of the family. We already know Kyle, the little boy. They have a little dog named biscuit, and he's just like a, like a generic, small lap dog. Okay, I don't know what the fuck he is. Little yapper. Lil yapper. We have Daisy. She's the youngest daughter, no, and the oldest daughter is Jamie. Oh, yay,
Unknown Speaker 22:35
yeah. She's the Disney Channel star. Oh, okay, so, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 22:41
So Jennifer kind of starts freaking out. She's like, Oh, I gotta go. Well, I don't know where I am. I need to leave. And then Wyatt, flailing her arms around, she was,
Unknown Speaker 22:53
she was so she opens the door, and the fakest looking wall of snow I've ever seen in my life falls in like they're totally snowed in. Oh no. What are they gonna do? You have to stay here now with me, MC doggy, with your amnesia, and I just happen to be single, and you're single, and these kids don't have a mother, they have a grandma
Unknown Speaker 23:21
and grandma
Unknown Speaker 23:27
so, you know, they have some little cutesy family moments, everybody getting to know each other. At one point, Kyle says you've never heard of anything like, shut up, Kyle, you're not helping shit. That's rude to say to someone with amnesia. She has a fucking traumatic brain injury.
Unknown Speaker 23:50
She finds that she's drawn to cooking, which makes sense, because, you know, she was like a Martha Stewart, so that part of her is kind of coming back, but she doesn't really know why. And she makes a rose out of baloney.
Unknown Speaker 24:04
She goes to MC doggy.
Unknown Speaker 24:07
Oh, my God, I can't believe that actually happened. Well, you know, they're, they're a little all American family. They're baloney omelets, baloney rose and the ones are like a little whipped cream, not whipped cream, mayonnaise in the middle,
Unknown Speaker 24:25
delicious.
Unknown Speaker 24:27
And then they decide that they're gonna call her Maggie, since that she doesn't know what her name is, which is so fucking weird. I mean, I guess it kind of makes sense to give somebody a name, but at the same time. It's really weird. I just don't like that name. Like, I feel like, if you gave me the name Maggie, I'd be like, Did I offend you or bore you, or something? Like, I don't know, not to sorry to anyone named Maggie
Unknown Speaker 24:53
Jamie.
Unknown Speaker 24:56
I mean, I was almost named Roberta. Okay, so I'm just kind of like.
Unknown Speaker 25:00
Like
Unknown Speaker 25:01
Roberta Lynn, yeah, dude, imagine if you were named Roberta.
Unknown Speaker 25:07
God, I would not have friends and oh, you can go by birdie, though, actually, yeah, that would be really cute. Oh, damn, it should have been named Roberta. Yeah. Birdie would have been a really cute nickname. We can call you that if you would like, no, it feels
Unknown Speaker 25:26
now I can't be like, I like that name. Call me that.
Unknown Speaker 25:34
Oh. So she's like, Oh, I love Maggie, of course, Mama Maggie. My name's Maggie, but I'm just gonna keep calling her Jennifer, just for the sake of clarity. I don't know.
Unknown Speaker 25:48
So, you know, it's a small town, so the sheriff comes by, and so does his wife, who is a doctor. So now they have actual human doctor to look at her, since MC doggy is, oh, okay, but
Unknown Speaker 26:03
we're like, you let her fall asleep. Yeah, you fucking hate it.
Unknown Speaker 26:08
But they say that she's fine.
Unknown Speaker 26:12
They're gonna try to get the word out and see if anybody is looking for someone, and they agree that she's gonna stay with MC doggy for the time being because of the storm. And, you know, just snowed in there, snowed in. Well, I guess the snow is melted by this point, but they're still kind of snowed in, because in the next scene, they take a snowmobile to town, which could just be a cutesy little small town thing, I don't know, yeah,
Unknown Speaker 26:43
and she's scared to get on it, like she was wearing a red shirt.
Unknown Speaker 26:50
The snowmobile is red too. And like we're watching, I didn't really think Gene was paying that much attention. And he goes, it matches your shirt, bitch. You're getting on.
Unknown Speaker 27:02
It's a fucking song, get on the steel mobile. We're going to town.
Unknown Speaker 27:09
It's like that memo, like, get in. Loser, get in. Loser. We're going to town to see if anybody knows you, because you have amnesia on Christmas and you don't know who you are. And you're going to stay with my family and be my kids new mom, Maggie.
Unknown Speaker 27:26
So they go into town and we see Brooke, which is the lady that he went on a date with, and she's gonna be like, he's with another girl. Yes, exactly. She's, it's like you it's like, you've seen this. Ah,
Unknown Speaker 27:43
so she's kind of being all shady, but she does say that Jennifer looks familiar, which makes sense, because she's like a Martha Stewart, basically. Okay, yeah, she's a fan, yep.
Unknown Speaker 27:56
So let's see. Then they go and they, like, chopped down a Christmas tree. And it seems like this is the first Christmas tree they've had since the mom died. And they're like, making snow angels, and they're having, like, a little family moment. And you know, it's like, oh, they're falling for each other.
Unknown Speaker 28:18
And then we go back to New York, and Paula, her friend slash manager, is starting to get concerned, because she hasn't heard from Jennifer that she made it or whatever.
Unknown Speaker 28:30
Yeah. So back in Colorado, Jennifer asks MC doggy about Julie, which is his deceased wife, and he said that she died three years ago, and he kind of implies that she had something that came on quickly, you know, and she died,
Unknown Speaker 28:51
I'm sorry. I hope I just makes me think of P Diddy.
Unknown Speaker 28:56
Why? Because he keeps, he gets like people kept getting, like, pneumonia suddenly, and like, dying, and that was like, Oh, she's part of
Unknown Speaker 29:09
shit. Maybe that is why she's dead, because she was killed because she knows the secrets and she was gonna tell I am been watching too much Diddy stuff recently. I'm sorry. I bet you're right.
Unknown Speaker 29:21
We know the real story hallmarks, a part
Unknown Speaker 29:29
of
Unknown Speaker 29:31
it. Oh, my God, this is so creepy. So he's talking about how she liked making cinnamon bread, and they would talk every night over wine, and she loved Christmas. And then he fucking says, and I quote, she had a wonderful scent, what?
Unknown Speaker 29:52
Yes, I'm making a really weird face. I just don't really know what to think about that. That sounds so fucking serial killer. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 30:00
I don't really like, I don't either, and she is like, what? It's like, the equivalent of like, she had nice feet.
Unknown Speaker 30:11
That's I get it, his wife smelled good. Maybe she used nice perfume or whatever. But to say it in that way is the creepiest fucking way that you can talk to someone. So,
Unknown Speaker 30:25
yeah, now G and I have been walking around just being like, I like your sand.
Unknown Speaker 30:31
I had someone told tell me recently that there was like this crazy, crazy bitch trying to enter back into their life. And she was, she said, I miss the taste of you, or I think of the taste of
Unknown Speaker 30:52
your scent in your taste. Yeah, that shit is based, oh, God, just now. I guess I'm just not a human enough to understand saying things like that, like maybe I'm not primal.
Unknown Speaker 31:11
Exactly, we're not primal. So we're not saying we're like advanced, just saying that we're not developed humans. Yeah, we're not
Unknown Speaker 31:22
so a couple days later, they go back into town, and they see Brooke again, of course, the date lady,
Unknown Speaker 31:31
and she's like, Oh, I have some mistletoe, and is trying to get
Unknown Speaker 31:38
doggy,
Unknown Speaker 31:39
big doggy to kiss her,
Unknown Speaker 31:42
and Jennifer sees because she's, you know, like, further away with the kids or whatever, and she gets jealous. Oh, so then when they get home, she's like, Hey, I just need to find another place to stay, because I don't want to come between you and Brooke. And he's like, No, you know, we've really liked having you here, and I like your scent too.
Unknown Speaker 32:07
I just want to smell you all the time, all the time. And they're kind of having a little moment. But then, of course, the kid walks in and interrupts it.
Unknown Speaker 32:18
Then back in New York, they decide they're gonna start a fucking nationwide search for her. Didn't they know where she was going? Like, they knew she was going to Aspen, yeah. But I think the problem was that she was lost, and she was kind of, like, on some back road. So okay, so she's not exactly like, Yeah, okay. And then, you know, when she wandered out of her car, she didn't take her phone or anything, oh, yeah, she just foiled her arms around there's
Unknown Speaker 32:50
a sale going on.
Unknown Speaker 32:53
She was inflatable tooth man. And then her car, like, I guess they couldn't see it from the road, which we'll get back to later. But yeah, so they didn't know where she was, um,
Unknown Speaker 33:08
and yeah, so they start the search,
Unknown Speaker 33:13
and then she's back and wherever the fuck she is, I guess she didn't make it to Aspen, wherever, and she's like, maybe I was a horrible person, and nobody loves me, and that's why, like, nobody's searching for me.
Unknown Speaker 33:30
Like, that would be crazy. Like, what if she was a killer or something, and she didn't remember? That's an interesting premise for us, or story
Unknown Speaker 33:40
premise maker, yeah, we need, we need more amnesia stories. We need like, amnesia, Halloween, amnesia, Thanksgiving, Easter, there's probably amnesia Valentines already. Oh, yeah, I feel like amnesia kind of surrounds the love story. For some reason
Unknown Speaker 33:59
it's always like, yeah, like, even, you know, Fast and Furious has a amnesia. Heart, oh shit. What happens? Yeah? So, spoiler alert, Letty, which is, oh, I can't remember his name, the diesel dudes, boy, girlfriend,
Unknown Speaker 34:15
she gets in a car crash, and they think like she died, but she
Unknown Speaker 34:20
just was taken from whatever their enemy pupils are, and like, she had amnesia. And then Vin Diesel gets another girlfriend, and then they have a baby. And then
Unknown Speaker 34:35
something happens with her. She gets, like, taken away, and he thinks she died. And then Letty comes back,
Unknown Speaker 34:42
and she's like, Oh, I'm he's like, you're alive. And then
Unknown Speaker 34:47
the mom of the child, he finds her again. Oh no. She's like, you know, locked up somewhere. He has two amnesia bitches now she doesn't have.
Unknown Speaker 35:00
Amnesia. Okay? She's just like, Should we give it a tear naps, yeah?
Unknown Speaker 35:05
But then she dies somehow, which makes it, like, easy for
Unknown Speaker 35:10
Yeah?
Unknown Speaker 35:12
So, I mean, I might not be telling it exactly right, because I haven't seen those particular Fast and Furious movies in a while, but it's, sounds perfect, yeah, those movies are, it's basically like a brew soap opera. Hell yeah, yeah. I'm all about shit like that.
Unknown Speaker 35:30
I love any kind of soap opera.
Unknown Speaker 35:33
Oh yeah. So she's nobody loves me, and he's like, that's not true, like, I'm sure they're looking for you, and she's never killed anyone.
Unknown Speaker 35:43
She's like, maybe I killed people, I don't know, but you know, she's like, I just wish I could remember, and that's kind of a theme throughout, you know, she's like, who am I?
Unknown Speaker 35:54
And then MC doggy says that he needs to go into town and asks if she wants to watch the kids while he does that. But where's grandma Gremlin?
Unknown Speaker 36:08
She lives somewhere else. Oh, okay, okay, yeah,
Unknown Speaker 36:13
I would watch the children.
Unknown Speaker 36:18
But then Jennifer says, you trust me with your children, like, not after you say that
Unknown Speaker 36:26
bitch, what the
Unknown Speaker 36:29
fuck dude, that sounds wild. I don't know if I would want someone like brain damage washing my children, just in case. You know that's true. What if she was just like, snapped back out of it was like, Oh yeah, I am a killer, yeah. Or just like, it's had a blood vessel pop and die, oh yeah. And then the kids are like, ah, what do we do? It's so
Unknown Speaker 36:53
tragic. Now we're gonna make another Hallmark movie.
Unknown Speaker 36:57
Um, so he leaves her with the kids, which is weird, after she said that serial killer shit,
Unknown Speaker 37:05
and they're like, making crafts together,
Unknown Speaker 37:09
and they kind of talk about their mom that's passed away. And then
Unknown Speaker 37:16
one kid compares Jennifer to Julie, the mom, of course, yeah. And then you have the same smell.
Unknown Speaker 37:29
Mommy
Unknown Speaker 37:32
sent.
Unknown Speaker 37:33
Mommy sent. But then Jennifer starts, like, remembering about her mom and like, Christmas when she was a little girl, like she was talking about at the beginning of the movie. So,
Unknown Speaker 37:46
yeah, they make the house all Christmas magical. It's all decked out. And one thing I thought was weird, they have Christmas lights like on the back of the couch, which seems like a fucking fire hazard to me, and like you would lean on if you sit on the couch, touch the lights. Yeah, I don't really want to put lights on fabric. Yeah, it seems really weird. I agree. Why would they do that? I don't know. I thought that was odd. I don't know. Yeah, it feels like the set designer just was like, I want to be extra Yeah, like, we have to make it so magical, even the chair has Christmas lights, and they all die in a fire.
Unknown Speaker 38:31
So
Unknown Speaker 38:33
we see that Brooke, the crazy jealous date person.
Unknown Speaker 38:40
She gets a magazine that we know that Jennifer is in.
Unknown Speaker 38:46
So it's starting to let us know, like, Oh, they're getting close to a discovery. Like she's not on the cover or anything, but it's like some cooking magazine. So you're like, Oh, she's gonna find out.
Unknown Speaker 38:58
And then at this point, mcdougy Convert confides in a friend that he doesn't want Maggie to leave. Is it gonna hide her identity
Unknown Speaker 39:11
from
Unknown Speaker 39:13
her? Or Jennifer? Maggie? Jennifer, he doesn't want her to leave. Yeah. And then the friend just like, well, if you love something, you have to let it go, of course.
Unknown Speaker 39:24
So, you know,
Unknown Speaker 39:27
you know how, like, whenever you and I talk, we just talk in like, little sayings like that, all the time, yeah, to each other. It's normal.
Unknown Speaker 39:39
So then
Unknown Speaker 39:43
goblin Grandma,
Unknown Speaker 39:49
you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
Unknown Speaker 39:55
I'm not blood related to any of these people. I.
Unknown Speaker 40:00
So Goblin, Grandma tells her, that tells Jennifer, like, oh, since you're here, it finally feels like Christmas again. And then they're like, talking about how Christmas is a beautiful time. And grandma, Goblin is like, you've been an exhibition to the family this past week.
Unknown Speaker 40:22
So and
Unknown Speaker 40:26
then we see Brooke, the jealous lady. She finally opens this magazine, and she's like, Holy fucking shit. That's Jennifer. That's the missing girl. But she decides not to tell anyone to just like, I'm gonna keep this in my back pocket, because Hallmark, yeah,
Unknown Speaker 40:48
and then the the dipshit Sheriff that was at the house earlier in the movie, they find the car, her missing car, and it's like, not that far off the road. It's like in a ditch, but you can easily see.
Unknown Speaker 41:02
And this whole time, they've been like, We're searching. I think we're getting close. So completely, Yeah,
Unknown Speaker 41:10
fucking incompetent law enforcement. They just actually went out during the day.
Unknown Speaker 41:16
Oh, I was looking left, but it was on the rat. I So then they decide they are going to go. The whole family is going to go to this Christmas party in town. It's like the big town Christmas Shindig. And then they see Brooke there, but she still doesn't fucking say anything.
Unknown Speaker 41:47
So then we see Jennifer and mcdogie slow dancing at the party, and you know they're like gazing in each other's eyes, and he's enjoying her scent, but
Unknown Speaker 41:59
you don't smell as good as Maggie. Maggie. Jennifer,
Unknown Speaker 42:04
I don't even know why he entertains Brooke anymore.
Unknown Speaker 42:08
Yeah, I don't know why he's not like, Hey, I'm not interested. But he's just, he's such a little sweetheart that he can't hurt somebody's feelings, you know? But he doesn't know that he's actually doing something worse, true.
Unknown Speaker 42:24
So then, like, the music stops, and all these people storm in, and everything's interrupted. And then Paula, the manager friend, walks in, and it's like, oh my god, Jennifer. And they're like, Jennifer, because I don't know that's her name. And then there's a big reveal, and that's when the sheriff is like, yeah, we found your car and it had your ID in it. And then Brooke was like, Yeah, I saw you in the magazine, but I didn't tell you. I just called your manager instead. Okay,
Unknown Speaker 43:01
yeah. She's like, I want this bitch out of here. Yeah, she could have just gone to her house, which was like five feet away, because I
Unknown Speaker 43:09
live, you know, everything's all close, but yeah, I'm like, Hey, this is you. And, like, shown her the magazine instead. She's like, you have to be collected by your manager
Unknown Speaker 43:19
at the biggest event of the year,
Unknown Speaker 43:24
and then the kids are crying, and they they're like, We love you. We don't want you to leave. And MC doggy was like, I always knew this day would come.
Unknown Speaker 43:40
I always knew I would crash into a amnesia lady, and then someone would come and take her away.
Unknown Speaker 43:47
She would sit on a pie, and then she'd be gone.
Unknown Speaker 43:54
You know when a woman comes in your life and just sits on a pie
Unknown Speaker 44:00
and he's like, Don't forget us. And then they fucking Usher Jennifer off, like, right on the spot. They're like, we have to go and like, Secret Service.
Unknown Speaker 44:11
Like, Brad, the boyfriend, is there. And he's like, I'm her boyfriend. And, you know, mcdougy is like, oh my god, yeah. And then they just like, all, like, take her away. And she's like, goodbye,
Unknown Speaker 44:25
I love you all.
Unknown Speaker 44:28
Yeah, changed my life and my heart. She doesn't realize. It takes her a little bit to realize that, oh, okay, okay, of course it does. It does. So they go back to New York, and then we cut to Daisy. She's the youngest, and she was like, I wish that Santa would bring Maggie back on his sleigh,
Unknown Speaker 44:52
because I love her mom's mommy scent.
Unknown Speaker 44:57
And then finally, we're back.
Unknown Speaker 45:00
New York. And then Jennifer has her moment. She has to travel back to New York. But then she's like, Hey, I can't do this shit. I need to be with them. So she breaks up with Brad, and then she hugs Paula. And Paula's like, You go, girl, you go get your new family. You live your life.
Unknown Speaker 45:20
And we are back in Colorado, and you see the family opening gifts, and they talk about how much they miss Jennifer, and they're like, You know what? We're gonna go get her, like, we have to bring her back to her mommy.
Unknown Speaker 45:39
And then they opened the door that previously had the snow fall out of it, and she's standing
Unknown Speaker 45:46
there, yeah, oh my god, so magical. It's a Christmas miracle. It really is. I imagine, while she was gone, they just, like, had a sweater that she forgot, that they all just like, passed around and smelled Oh
Unknown Speaker 46:02
my scent is so mommy ish paramount.
Unknown Speaker 46:15
So then you know she's in the doorway and she says, I may never get my memory back, but we love each other and love the kids, and that's enough. So yeah, then they hug, and they never talk about their dead mom again.
Unknown Speaker 46:31
They forget mommy Julie, and then one year later, they show her she's doing her show in the little small town, and she's wearing a wedding ring. Oh, and then the movie ends. Oh, abruptly.
Unknown Speaker 46:48
What a what a quaint little tale. Yeah, I don't think that could ever happen, but I love it. It's a quaint
Unknown Speaker 46:58
you don't think anyone gets amnesia and then their life really changes, like, for the better, necessarily? I could be wrong. Yeah, that's just an assumption I'm making. I guess I don't know.
Unknown Speaker 47:08
All I know about amnesia is from TV,
Unknown Speaker 47:13
yeah, yeah. Well, I mean, there is amnesia caused by,
Unknown Speaker 47:21
like, sedation. Oh, really, yeah, so, like, when my dad was sick for a while, and then, like, he woke back up, and, you know, he kind of, like, you know, didn't realize what had happened, and, like, also didn't remember a portion of time, like, before he got sick. Oh, okay, yeah. So I know you can have it from medical stuff, but yeah, as far as just, like, getting hit in the head and being like, I don't know anybody, yeah, inflatable two, little man,
Unknown Speaker 47:53
I don't know about any other real life applications, yeah, we could maybe, uh, talk about some other amnesia, like, real amnesia stories. Sometime, I'm sure there's somebody that's like, uprooted their life and done some weird shit like this. There was a
Unknown Speaker 48:10
missing person on unsolved mysteries, and then I think it was like, Yeah, an amnesia thing. And then they were like, they had a whole nother life, and then, you know, they were seen by on Unsolved Mysteries, by someone they know. And like, we're like, Hey, this is they're at this party, and they busted in, and they're like, Hey, you have this whole other life. Yeah. And then, uh, I don't know, just toss grandma and Gremlin in there making the cookies. Cookies.
Unknown Speaker 48:42
Um, well, that was a great movie. I almost like want to watch it, but I know it's a horrible Hallmark movie, so I know it's not worth it.
Unknown Speaker 48:50
You know, you and Brandon might have fun watching it together. I know if we, if we watched it together, it would be funny, because we always make accents for people and yeah, do weird shit. So if you ever want to watch it, let me know I would watch it again. Okay, yeah, yeah, we'll just have like, a terrible Christmas movie time. We usually do some horror movie nights, but yeah, we'll do a like, bad Christmas movie.
Unknown Speaker 49:15
Oh, well, yeah. Thank you for sharing the wonderful, wonderful world of amnesia. Christmas, you're welcome. Thank you for letting me. I know it's a niche topic that maybe no one gives it out except me. No, it's a very unforgettable Christmas.
Unknown Speaker 49:35
No, it was called a Christmas to remember. Oh, it was a Christmas to remember. Yeah, it was. I immediately forgot the name after I watched it, I had to, like, go back in my history and see what I watched, because it gave me amnesia. Yeah, like all those Christmas movies, it's hard to remember the name. Like they're all, like, just generic sounding titles. Love falling.
Unknown Speaker 50:00
Love at Christmas.
Unknown Speaker 50:03
Love, lovely. Christmas, snowy, Christmas, snowy in love, and it's Christmas
Unknown Speaker 50:12
and grandma Gremlins making cookies. We need a grandma Gremlin spin off.
