The Woman In Cabin 10 (Netflix): Does nobody know what Anne looks like?? w/ Anjali Majumdar

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Hey yappers, welcome back to Binge yap repeat.
Today my sister Anjali and I areyapping all about Netflixs new
psychological thriller The Womanin Cabin 10 starring Keira
Knightley. We yap all about the differences
between the movie and the 2016 novel by Ruth Ware that the
movie was based on. We also discussed the

(00:20):
shortcomings of the movie's plotand some ideas which would have
made this movie way more interesting.
Truth be told, we did enjoy thismovie, we just felt it had way
more potential than it actually turned out to be.
Get ready yappers, our episode starts now.

(00:50):
Hey ya, first welcome back to Binge Ya for Pete.
I am joined once again by my sister Anjali.
I'm back. Ruchi has been in Asia for
10,000 years. Just kidding, she'll be.
I think she's coming back soon. So Ruchi will be here next week.

(01:10):
But I'm joined today by my sister Anjali, and we will be
discussing The Woman in Cabin 10, which is a new movie on
Netflix. The premise of The Woman in
Cabin 10 is a journalist on a yacht witnesses a passenger
thrown overboard but is told it didn't happen.
She seeks answers, putting her life in danger.

(01:31):
This movie is based on the 2016 novel by Ruth Ware, and the film
stars Keira Knightley, Guy Pierce, Art Malik Gugun, Bansal
RAW, Kayas Godalario, Daniel Ames and Hannah Waddingham.
All right. What were your overall thoughts?

(01:52):
Overall I thought the movie was OK.
I think it started off really strong and the pacing was pretty
fast, which I guess I'm used to like TV shows at this point.
So I was like, whoa, so much is happening so quickly and that
really like hooked me. But then I feel like the story

(02:14):
was just kind of predictable. I kind of knew what was going to
happen. It's like basically the woman on
the train or girl on the train. But similar vibe.
Yeah, like, similar vibe, similar premise where like the
woman witnesses something, no one believes her, everyone is

(02:35):
gaslighting her, saying she's wrong, and then she turns out to
be right. Like I thought it just wasn't
very original. So, I mean, I love Keira
Knightley. I think she's fantastic, and she
did really well in this movie. But I just it just felt kind of
1 dimensional to me, I would say.
Yeah, I think that's a really fair assessment 'cause there

(02:58):
were so many movies that it was reminding me of as I was
watching it. Like it was kind of reminding me
of Glass Onion a little bit, andit was definitely kind of
reminding me of Girl on the Train.
What else? I was trying to think of other
ones. I feel like we brought it up as
we had started. I don't know.
OK. But yeah, I I agree the story

(03:19):
was not very original. It was like a whodunnit with a
finite number of options becauseeverybody was trapped on a
cruise ship. Oh, the other one it reminded me
of was Flight Plan, the movie where the woman's daughter goes
missing on the plane and nobody believes her.
Oh. Yeah, I, I don't, I don't

(03:40):
remember that movie, but. Yeah, OK.
Yeah, So kind of similar vibes. Like everyone gaslights her and
then she starts believing it herself.
And then, yeah, I thought she was right the whole time.
Yeah, yeah. I feel like this is just another
iteration of the same type of story.
And there wasn't, there was likesort of a new twist with the
different Ands, but like I didn't think that was done very

(04:05):
well. And it was done super early too
in the movie. It was done super early
actually. I liked that because then that
didn't become the climax and there was an actual climax to
the movie. Like I hate 1 they lead us down
this rabbit hole and then they just like reveal it and then.
Everything. Resolves.
So I kind of like that you find out what the twist is like I

(04:29):
think it was halfway through themovie or something, and then we
just get to see how the story plays out.
OK I could see that. I think I have a different
opinion. Like my my thoughts while
watching the movie was they had that big twist.
And I remember in the moment we were both kind of confused.
We were like, oh, wait, go back 'cause there was some like

(04:52):
montage scene of flashbacks to real Anne and fake Anne.
And in the moment I was like, OK, so she's not the real Anne.
And like, that was supposed to be the big twist.
And I didn't think it was done very well.
Like I feel like in stories thatshould be building, building,

(05:13):
building climax and then or likeclimax twist and then like
resolution. And here it just kind of felt
like rolling hills instead of like a mountain, 'cause it was
like, oh, Anne is there's a fakeAnne.
OK, then we go back to the storyand then actually.
Like, just like trapped in the boat.
For a while, yeah. And then it's like, oh, they

(05:34):
finally like caught him red handed and then it ends.
But like, I wish those peaks were smashed together into one
big mountain. That is true.
Like if she found out the truth about Fake Ann right when the
gala was happening. Yeah.
That's true. That would have been way.
More disgusting, like I would have loved if she found the

(05:57):
actual speech while she was trapped in the boat and then she
like ran to go save the day or something.
That's so true. That would have been so much
better. Yeah, OK.
I. Was also so I'm confused.
So so I agree with you. I think it was not the strongest
writing that they showed that like her realization, Keira

(06:18):
Knightley's realization montage was like flashing to and
coughing and like and saying these things and her seeing the
woman in cabin 10, blah, blah, blah, which like kind of
explained what happened. But then they then they really
explained what happened, which was like, so if they had just

(06:38):
done a better job setting it up and then revealing it, they
wouldn't have had to do that montage of actually explaining
like, because I think the the fake and literally just told her
story of like, yeah, this is what happened.
Yeah, yeah. It's like another one of those
cases of over explaining, like going back to when we had our
first episode together talking about severance.

(07:01):
How they just had to show they didn't have to say anything,
they didn't have to have any extra dialogue to explain what
was happening. The writing here felt kind of
sloppy where they just had someone explain exactly what was
going on. Yeah, that is so.
True, there was no mystery for the audience to.
Figure out. Yeah, yeah.
And yeah, it's interesting because this started as a book

(07:25):
in which, like, you do have to explain word for word what
happened, Really. But I feel like they just didn't
take that it, it wasn't a, they didn't use it as like
inspiration to write a movie. They were just like, let's take
this and put it in the movie. Yeah, we took this and put it
over there. Oh, the book is describing

(07:47):
exactly what the scene does. Let's put it in dialogue.
Yes, so. Fair, Yeah.
OK, I I have a question for you,which is, well, actually I have
a few questions for you. One how come nobody knows what
Anne looks or sounds like? OK, yeah, I have.

(08:10):
Different colored eyes. Oh, do they?
Yeah, I think they're real Anne had brown eyes and fake Anne had
blue eyes, and I think she wore wore colored Context.
When she was. Fake Anne.
But after, like, when she went out to watch the fireworks, that
was like right after her reveal thing.
So she wasn't wearing the contacts.
Oh, no one suspected anything. What?

(08:33):
Yeah. Also there are different
heights. Like fake Anne was shorter than
real, and yeah, and then like real Anne had an accent and I
guess fake Anne was faking the accent.
I think they were both supposed to be in Norwegian.
Oh, OK, so the accents. I think they were supposed to
have the same accent. OK, but probably different
voices. Probably.
Different voices, probably different like ways of speaking.

(08:55):
Not just like pronunciation, butlike what words they put
together. Right to form.
Sentences. And Ruchi, for example, I would
absolutely be able to tell who is who, even if your voices were
similar. Yeah, I know you guys.
Yeah, so that was like a huge plot hole.

(09:15):
I yeah, I was kind of frustratedby that.
I was like, how does no one knowthis is a fake?
And yeah, they're all supposed to be like, close to her.
I guess do you think maybe the movie was trying to show that
like in the upper echelon, no one really knows each other that
well? I feel like that's a stride.
That's a yeah. I feel like that's giving them
too much credit. Yeah, yeah, To be clear, the

(09:39):
movie kept me hooked and I very much enjoyed watching it.
Oh, OK. I think thinking about it
critically, all of these things are.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like, it was a nice
watch. Yeah, I, it was like almost a
relaxing movie to watch 'cause Iknew what was gonna happen.
And yeah, I like, I liked it. Yeah, I I think the second they

(10:01):
were like, oh, and Anne's not, or Anne's not feeling well, so
she'll come by at dinner. Like when they first got on the
boat, I was like, something's fishy with Anne.
Yep. I guess at that point something
wasn't fishy with Anne. That's true.
That was Anne not feeling well. Yeah, I feel like as we were

(10:24):
watching the movie, I was givingthem too much credit the entire
time. So I wrote down all these
different notes and none of themended up being true.
OK, let me hear your theories ofprobably what would have made
the movie. Better.
OK, so in the beginning of the movie they saw the crew or some

(10:45):
some people just opening doors without any locks or keys and so
I thought unlocked doors would be a part of it.
Like you just press a button andthe door opens.
So I was like, oh, how will thatplay in?
It never played in. Then I wrote down I bet the two
cases are connected, meaning thecase that LO had before which

(11:07):
gave her like trauma and then what was happening on the boat
completely completely separated.Which was so.
Which is what happened in Thursday Murder Club.
Remember. Yes.
Yeah, that's right. Yeah, that was cute.
OK, well, those are those are the two things I wrote down.
I feel like there are more, but I was like under the impression

(11:29):
that they big brained this entire movie and I was like
looking for these clues, which ended up not like you didn't
really have to look for any clue.
They just gave it. To you.
Yeah, Yeah, They really fake andjust sat there and told us
exactly what happened. Yeah.
OK, Next question. How much of the crew do you

(11:52):
think knew what was going on? Yeah, I was thinking about that
at the end of the movie. So it sounds like the captain
knew. Unclear if any of the crew knew.
Yeah, but how would they just not see fake Ann running around?
I know for for most of the movie, I thought redhead lady

(12:15):
was in on it. She's yeah, shooting Richard.
Yeah. I was like, oh, she's clearly in
on it. That's why she's gaslighting
Keira Knightley into saying no, yes, the 10, etcetera.
But then she was like. All right, I'll help you.
I know. OK.
Another note I wrote down was that was super risky giving
redhead woman the speech becauseredhead woman could just, like,

(12:38):
tear it up and throw it away. She was in on it.
Yeah. Literally I thought she was
going to be like thank you for showing me this and walk away
with it. Yeah, and that would have been a
fun twist. But no, it seems like from what
they showed us, the only people in on it were the guy, the main
guy, Bomber. But yeah, something like that.

(12:59):
Something like Bulmer, yeah. The Captain and the Doctor.
Yeah, right, Which I thought theDoctor was a bit unnecessary as
a character. Yeah, I feel like he just served
the purpose of killing the love interest.
RIP yeah. RMP RIP Yeah, poor Ben.

(13:22):
OK, so I, I have not read the book, but I read two articles
that talk about the differences between the movie and the book.
OK, so the first difference is that in the book, Lo has a
boyfriend. Oh, and he kind of like plays

(13:42):
the anchor role being like, something's wrong on this boat
because I haven't heard from her.
And then I think he gets involved somehow.
Oh. Yeah.
So that's a big difference. And I think the fact that he
wasn't there in the movie made her relationship with Ben very
different because it like kind of seemed like they could have
like something could have happened between them on the

(14:03):
boat. Also, yeah, if not, definitely,
I read some criticisms that likethe book delves pretty deeply
into the characters backstories and there are a lot, a lot more
characters in the book that theyjust kind of combined in the
movie. And that people were saying that
made the movie much more one-dimensional than the book.

(14:25):
Oh, that makes sense. I I did read that the guests are
very different, the guests on the cruise in the movie versus
the book. So maybe it maybe it had
something to do with that. Yeah, yeah, 'cause they were all
kind of painted as like, like blase rich people that didn't
give a fuck what was. Happening.
Yeah, yeah, they were so one-dimensional.

(14:45):
Yeah, not even 1 dimension. There were like points.
Yeah. Also.
Like people that Rich would never openly say anything about
someone's outfit if it was out of place.
You know, yeah. That's giving cheap No one would
do that. No one would comment on someone
else's outfit. Yeah.
And OK, just going, yeah, jumping on that, I feel like all

(15:09):
those characters were unnecessary.
Every single other rich person on this boat was unnecessary.
Like, why did they have the musician?
On what purpose did that serve? I know he like left in the
middle, 'cause he was like, I can't do this, blah blah, blah.
And like, maybe that was supposed to be a red herring.

(15:31):
I don't know, I thought they showed him remember how he like
started playing a song and and was like fake and was like oh I
remember it now. Oh.
Yeah, but yeah, 'cause that wasn't.
And yeah, so maybe that was supposed to be a clue to us that
like, oh, not not her, I mean, but it was bad.
Honestly, I did not pick up on that.

(15:52):
I just thought it was bad writing.
Yeah, 'cause if, if they were trying to hint to us that it was
not actually Anne, then she should have been like, Oh yeah,
blah, blah, blah in the springtime.
And then he would have been like, it was fall or something,
you know? Yeah, I was like, oh, sorry, I
don't remember. Yeah, but there's no hint that

(16:13):
she actually didn't know it was going.
No, the thing that I thought they did well was showing a
scene where real Anne says she'snot on meds anymore, and then
fake ants saying she's on meds, and you picked up on that.
And I thought that was good. But then they just ruined it by
showing the montage of that, those two things next side by

(16:34):
side. Yeah.
It's like, OK, yeah. Obvious.
Yeah, yeah. OK, next difference.
Lowe's trauma in the book is notfrom one of her articles where,
like, the subject of her articlegot trapped in a boat and died
or trapped in a car and drowned.What happens in the book is that

(16:55):
there's a home intruder in Lowe's home, and that's what
causes her own trauma. Very different.
Yeah. I kind of liked the one in the
movie because I thought it like,well, I I liked that they linked
kind of her trauma from seeing that woman drown in her car to

(17:15):
getting trapped in the. Pool, yeah, which?
Getting trapped in the pool alsodoesn't happen in the book, but
I thought those were that was like a visually strong thing
that they showed. I'm glad they had that.
I agree. Yeah.
I was very tense in that scene, so I thought they did that part
well. Yeah, Yeah, that was.
So scary. Yeah, Oh my gosh.

(17:38):
I'm glad she had this back storywhere people were just like
gaslighting her and dismissing her thing or what she was
saying. But I wish they would have shown
her as a more unreliable narrator to the audience because
the whole time I trusted her judgment.
And I think it would have been alot more powerful.

(17:59):
Similar to Girl on the Train. If we didn't know.
Yes. If, if we were second guessing
her too, 'cause she also wasn't second guessing herself, which
does happen on Girl on the Train.
Yes. Girl on the Train, yeah.
So I think they could have done more there.
And like, hearing her back storyin the book, maybe that would

(18:20):
have been a stronger back story.Or they just should have like.
Connected it a little bit. More, yeah.
Or something. Or they could have made her
trauma related to something thatshe didn't speak up at the time
or something. Yeah.
Ever compensate for what happened?
Or something. Totally, I absolutely agree.
That's actually the next difference I was going to get to

(18:41):
is that she gets really drunk the night that she witnesses
someone falling over. Oh OK, will use to dismiss her
and then yeah. So exactly how Girl on the Train
is. Basically, why did they do that?
I don't know, they just like showed her drinking wine or
champagne. She she like how to throw away

(19:02):
comment to her boss being like, can't complain about the
champagne or something, right. On the next day she was
commented on Rich lady who playsa very good character on Ted
Lasso. You don't watch Ted Lasso,
right? But yeah, she's like, oh, didn't
you know you could drink on the job?
Oh, I remember that. Yeah.
But like, yeah. It didn't make us doubt her.

(19:24):
Yeah, it seemed like they. So right before the scene, I
think she had was having nightmares about the drowning
from that other case. And it seemed like maybe they
were trying to show that she hasthis past trauma, and so that's
why she's an unreliable narrator.
And because they put those two scenes right now to each other.

(19:46):
But Even so, like those flashbacks, I was confused.
It's like, yeah, they explained it later on in the movie that
this, like, she witnessed this. And then I was like, oh, OK.
But in the moment, I was like, OK, scary scene.
I think I yelped a little bit. Yeah, it was really loud.

(20:09):
And then it goes straight to like her seeing the body in the
water. And I was like.
OK. Yeah, yeah.
OK, this is a major difference. In the book Fake, Anne was
having an affair with Richard. Oh, which makes.

(20:31):
A huge difference to her. Yeah, Kerry is her character's
name. Yeah, 'cause in the movie she
was just like this hired woman that had no emotional tie to
Richard at. All yeah, so it's way.
Easier for her to go against him.
Yeah, that's so true. Was so in the book.
Was his plan all along still to kill Carrie?

(20:52):
I think so. OK, Yeah.
Because yeah, I'm thinking like in the last scene in that
banquet hall or whatever, Carriedoes turn on Richard and but if
she was with him, would she do that?
Who knows? Yeah, well, I mean what happens
in the book? Well, OK, actually in the book

(21:14):
there is no gala. Oh.
So I don't know exactly how it ends, but there's no gala where
this whole thing happens. OK.
And Lo actually finds out about Richard's Richard like losing
the money after the fact and then so so it's it's just like a
different ending. She doesn't even know she was
successful in in like exposing the truth.

(21:35):
And then she reads afterwards that he did not get the money.
And then. Well, yeah, guys, let me know.
This is what I gleaned from the article that I read.
But let me know if you've read the book.
And this is wrong. That.
So yeah, she finds out later that he did not get Anne's money
and then he dies and it's made to look like a suicide, but.
Oh. OK.

(21:57):
Yeah, interesting. OK, yeah, it was a very
different ending. I I did like, I think I liked
the movie ending more. I did too.
Yeah. I I really enjoyed it actually.
Like seeing the two women basically corner him.
Three women because redhead lady.
Oh, redhead lady. Yeah, yeah.

(22:18):
I love seeing them corner him and like, so that he couldn't
lie his way out of this situation.
I thought that was one of the strongest points in the movie.
Oh oh, sorry, I thought you weretalking about the scene at the.
Oh, not on the dock. On the dock, Yeah.
OK. You're talking about at the
Gallo and she's like, Anne, are these your words?
Should I read? Yeah.
And then Anne was like, yes, those are my words.

(22:40):
And then he finally says, but you're not even Anne.
That was good. Where?
Is Anne? Yeah.
Oh yeah. I.
Love that was good. I like checkmate, yeah.
Totally. The next one is the way that Low
stumbles upon the woman in Cabin10 is very different.
I think the movie did it better.So in the movie, as you know, we
saw her kind of like, stumble into the room trying to get away

(23:03):
from Ben. Yeah, Just, like, avoid him.
Yeah. And then she turns around.
She's like, oh, I'm sorry. And then you're kind of like,
oh, did she think that was her own room in the book?
She goes next door and knocks onthe door and wants to borrow
mascara from the woman next door.
I don't know how she knew there was a woman next door.
Oh, OK. And then the woman in Cabin 10

(23:23):
opens the door and, like reluctantly, gives her a
mascara. Oh.
I was Carrie. I would not open the door.
Oh yeah, I wasn't there. True.
So maybe I'm missing something because I haven't read the book
Zappers. Once again, let me know there's
more to it. Yeah, I'll give the benefit of
the doubt. Sounds like the book was very

(23:43):
good from what people have been saying online.
But yeah, I agree. Yeah, I would not have.
Made more sense for her to accidentally stumble upon it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK.
I think those are all the. Yeah, those are all the major
ones. OK.
Yeah. So I think they pulled some good
things from the book. They made some things better,
yeah. Overall, they should have just

(24:05):
done a little more with the movie.
Yeah, there. There was another plot hole that
I remember, which which I wrote down was when she jumps into the
water near the end of the movie.That's like freezing cold water.
How could she possibly swim likeI remember watching a movie I

(24:27):
mean. Yeah.
But I think it was a documentary.
I was actually going to say Titanic.
I was watching a documentary about Titanic and they were
saying that the water was too cold to even move your limbs.
Oh, so she would have just. Like, yeah, and stuff.
And like, that is a reason that Jack didn't get on the door.

(24:47):
That's supposed to be the explanation, I guess, was that
he was so cold he couldn't even like pull himself up because his
muscles just like, seized. How did Kate get on the door?
I don't know, Rose. Oh yeah, yeah.
Kate Winslet, I don't know. OK, biggest plothole ever.

(25:08):
They'll never live that down. But yeah, like, and someone also
commented on Reddit or IMDb or something that like, how could
she swim back to shore? It's like northern Norway, where
they can see the Northern Lights.
The water must have been freezing.
And even the doctor said himselflike, oh, she won't make it.
Like the water's too cold? Yeah, they didn't even show her

(25:30):
struggling that much. Yeah.
Like if she was like, if that would have been one thing, but
she was just like, oh, let me goswim to that.
Cabin freestyle. And also why did the doctor
watch her swim away? Yeah.
He just assumed tried to shoot her.

(25:50):
Yeah. So.
Much he just assumed she would have died, but he did see her
jump in the water and he did seeher come up from under the
surface and. Actively started.
Swimming. If I were the doctor, I would
have made sure she died. And then like, how convenient
that she swims to shore where there's an empty cabin where she

(26:11):
could start a fire. And they're clothes.
She can get warm. Yeah, her size, her.
Size And then she shows up to this gala and she looks
completely unscathed. Yes, she looked so unscathed.
How did she get a dress? She got dressed.
And like, she had the speech in,like, folded up in her phone,

(26:35):
but she must have jumped in the water with her phone.
How did the speech not get wet? It did.
It looked wet. Was it wet?
Yeah. It looked wet but not harmed,
which maybe that's the unrealistic part.
OK. Wouldn't it be disintegrating?
I don't know. I.
Don't know, maybe it was qualitypaper.
They are rich people, true. Yeah, water resistant paper.

(26:58):
Yeah, but yeah, there are just so many plot holes.
The movie had a lot of potential.
Yeah. And if you're looking at it with
like, an uncritical point of view, like if you're just
watching it to watch a movie on a Saturday night, like, sure,
yeah, it's fun. Which is what we did.
That is what we did. And I, we both had a good time

(27:19):
watching it, but it wasn't like a quality movie.
Yeah. Definitely made for TV movie.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Classic Netflix movie where
they're just churning out content.
Yeah, true. Yeah.
I will say the yacht was gorgeous.

(27:40):
Oh yeah. And the scenery was gorgeous, so
I loved being in the world. Yes, it was really fun,
remember? Remember when they were showing
the hallway between the rooms and it was like dark and black?
And I just remember Baba, our dad, wanting like huge windows
in our house and he would have hated that.
It's like dark, like narrow yellow lighting.

(28:05):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Bruce for contacts.
Our parents just remodeled theirhouse and our dad hates narrow
dark and yellow light, and this boat had all of it.
He's like white hallways with lots of windows and white and
bright light. And this yacht was like the the

(28:26):
antithesis of everything once. That was so funny.
I think he would have hated the yacht.
I would have liked the art though.
Yeah. Seems nice.
It was beautiful, yeah. So Keira Knightley's boss in the
movie, The woman at the newspaper or whatever her real
name is, Goo Goo Mbatha Raw. She plays the main character in

(28:50):
that TV show that we watched on Apple TV surface.
She was also in that episode of White Lotus San Jude Aparo.
Do you remember or sorry? Tell White Lotus, Black Mirror.
Yeah, she's the main character. Yeah, yeah.
Like the secondary. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

(29:10):
I didn't realize I knew her fromthat when I was watching
Surface. Yeah.
Sweet. Familiar.
And then I rewatched San Junipero and I was like.
Oh, that's so yeah, I think I did the same exact thing.
Yeah, I thought she would play abigger role.
Yeah, she's a pretty. Big actress, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She was so good in Surface. Yeah.

(29:32):
And San Junipero. Oh, I had a question.
This AI facial recognition thing, was that a plot in the
book? No.
So, so yeah, he, that guy didn'texist.
Facial recognition wasn't a thing.
And I think they included that because they wanted to change
the fact that Richard was havingan affair and that he just hired

(29:55):
someone that looked like Anne. And that's why they weaved in
that AI facial recognition thing.
OK, Yeah, yeah, 'cause I was like this, the AI facial
recognition thing, it's a very like new.
It's like in the last year or so.
True. Yeah.
I'm like, yeah, yeah. I assume this book did not come
out in the last year. No, Because they've already
adapted it to a movie. Yeah, Yeah.

(30:19):
Oh yeah, it was. The book is from 2016 I think.
Oh, OK. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
OK, I guess it makes sense. But yeah, I feel like there's
some instances where I think like, oh, they included this
information like, oh, that has to be part of the story.
And I have the same thought here, except for I felt so

(30:42):
differently about it. I was like, oh, OK, AI facial
recognition. That's probably how they found
and. Oh, you know, when he said that,
I thought they were going a different direction with it.
I didn't think he was going to be part of the reason Richard
was able to find her. I thought Lowe was going to use
his technology to prove that that wasn't.

(31:04):
Oh, that would have been better,I know.
I thought it was going to be like, oh, how's that going to
play into it? Oh, she's going back to him.
Yeah, I think I feel differentlyabout it because they just, they
didn't bring it up in a tasteful, like subtle way.
Yeah. It was just like, oh, this guest

(31:25):
on the boat, he got rich becausehe has this AI facial
recognition software. Everything was very happy
handed. Yeah.
No subtle teeth. No, but all that to say, I still
enjoyed it, Yeah. That was a good watch, yeah.
Enjoyable. Yeah.
Night Enjoyable. Night enjoyable.

(31:46):
Keira Knightley was very good with what she was given.
Yeah. All right.
On that note, should we rate? Sure.
Can you remind me the? Yes, rating one to five on
quality, one to five on enjoyment.
OK, quality and I can't do. Yeah, integers.
OK. Quality, I'd say like 2.

(32:10):
Enjoyment, I'd say like 4. OK, yeah.
So 6 out of 10. Cool.
Yeah. I would also give quality of
two. I think there was so much I
giving it a three does not. Feel no like it can't be above
50%. Enjoyment.

(32:30):
Yeah, I think I'll also go to four.
Like I definitely enjoyed it yeah.
And you know what I said in our last episode about Wayward,
which is like, would I enjoy? Wait, did I say this?
Wait, what episode did I say this on?
Oh, the girlfriend on that episode I said that my favorite
shows and movies are ones about rich people and their problems.
So I just love like give me a rich people problems movie or

(32:53):
show and I love it. And this is definitely.
So. Yeah, I'll give it a four out of
five on call or on enjoyment, OK.
Yeah, I think the IMDb rating was like 6 out of 10.
So great, pretty consistent. Nice binge in progress.
Yeah, I guess. I mean, not much has changed

(33:14):
since the last episode, but we did forget to mention we've been
watching Love is Blind. Oh yeah, crazy.
It's. Such a shit show, Oh my God.
I'm thoroughly enjoying it, but love is not blind.
Yeah. I think we can confidently say
that at this point. We've had like, what, nine
seasons of this? Yeah, this is.

(33:36):
Season. 9 And their success ratewas probably like 5%.
Well, honestly, there's usually.At least one couple that oh,
that's. True.
And stays married OK and the exception of a few seasons.
OK. And there are like 6 couples
that make it to the next stage. So like one out of six it's.

(33:57):
Like 15. Oh percent.
Yeah, yeah, it's not bad. Yeah, it's not bad.
Love is not that blind. Love is 15% blind, yeah.
Yeah, so I've been watching that.
Oh, I just started watching Amazing Race.
They have a new season that cameout.
It's coming out at the same timeas Survivor and usually they do

(34:22):
Amazing Race once a year, but they have a a special season
with contestants from Big Brother.
So it's super interesting and fun to watch because they all
kind of know each other and there's actually one couple
where and but they're on different teams and so there's
like a cool dynamic there too. So really enjoying it so far.

(34:44):
Cool. Yeah.
And then, yeah, Survivor Great British Bake Off football.
Nice, that is a binge for. Sure, binging a lot of football.
The only thing I have to add to that, well, I am watching
Gilmore Girls. As I said last time.
Yep, I've made it through 9 episodes since last.

(35:05):
Week. That's actually less than I
thought it would be. And then the only thing I want
to add is that we went to that Survivor meet up event, yes,
which was so fun. So this event was hosted on
Wednesday, which is the day thatnew Survivor episodes come out.
It was at a bar in San Francisco.

(35:25):
It was hosted by Bryce and Wendell, who are both
contestants or players from previous Survivor seasons, and
they brought on players from other seasons.
So we met Camilla, who is our idol.
Love her so much I've. Actually talked about her on
this podcast before and how her fire making scene made me cry

(35:48):
even though I haven't even watched that season.
And then we met Janine 47. So Camilla was from 48.
Yeah, Janine from 47. Jake, the Shoe Bandit from this
current season, was there. Jake the Snake.
Jake the Snake and who else? Joe from Yeah.

(36:08):
From 48, we didn't meet him, butwe saw him from afar.
We saw we met Kevin from 48 who went home pretty early.
You said he was first out, right?
I think I said that, but maybe Iwas actually wrong.
But he was like very early on. Yappers let us know.
And then we met Bryson Wendell. Yeah.

(36:32):
And we're. So great.
Yeah. They were just so happy and
really wanted everyone to make friends.
Yeah. They introduced us to someone
who was there by herself. So then, like, the three of us
hung out all night and like, every time we went up to, like,
we approached Camilla and Janine, but they were in
discussion. So we were kind of trying to be
polite and not interrupt them. And then I think it was Wendell

(36:55):
was just, yeah, Wendell was justlike, get in there, like go talk
to them. I really wanted to create a
community around Survivor, whichwas awesome.
Yeah, did a really good. Job they did so well like we
came into this event not knowingwhat the hell was going to
happen and the poster said like community and we were like what

(37:16):
they did so well. So Yappers, if you're fans of
Survivor and you live in a city where Bryce and when are coming
to you, you have to go, yes. You have to go.
It is the best survivor experience I've ever had.
And tickets were so cheap. They were like $35.
Yeah, yeah, Got it. Amazing, amazing.

(37:38):
Cool. All right, well, that's our
Survivor podcast. Thanks for yapping with us.
