Speaker 1 (00:10):
Hey, I'm Sydney and I'm delaying, and.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
This is book cult today. I'm talking about my mistering
the Serial Killer by oilcon brightwith I looked to pat
A Suraname a bunch of times and I still think
I got it wrong.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
Sorry you tried. Oh and to celebrate women in men's field. Ooh,
I'm drinking strawberry crystalite typical, I'm drinking coffee.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Anyways, some fun facts. So the author was born in Lagos, Nigeria,
and that's also this book takes twice in nineteen eighty eight,
but she spent most of her time growing up in
the UK because her family ended up moving to Southgate, London.
She guys have like a British accent and it's kind
of like a Nigerian accent. And Nigerian accents are my
favorite accents.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
I think they're so pretty. And to add to that,
oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
So she studied law and creative writing at the University
of Surrey and then moved back to Lagos in twenty twelve.
This is her first book. She has a few others
and it was published in twenty eighteen. And she's also
an illustrator and the design the cover of the Nigerian
version of the novel, but I don't think it was
the version. I don't think the cover of the English version,
so I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
It's still super cool. Good for her.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
Yeah, she's very talented and also super pretty.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
If you look up a picture of her, Oh, good
for her.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Okay, So summary, Cordy got a text from her sister Iola,
and she is now cleaning the bathroom of some guys
apartment because she knows how to get blood out of everything.
She's a nurse. She's good at it. She has her
own special solution. Iola isn't methodical enough to do this,
neither of mine, and so she wouldn't like nope to

(01:55):
like clean the grout in the bathtub, like you got
to get the blood out of every single thing around.
It's yeah. And so her sister had only been dating
this guy, Femmi for a couple of months, but she's
like he was mean and she said he was young
at her and scared her and that's why she had
to stab him. And she had a knife in her
hand already because she thought he might get mean. And

(02:15):
that's what happened. That explains the whole thing. It's not suspicious.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
I have no follow up questions, honestly, I mean, yeah,
she covers all the faces.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
Yeah, Cordy doesn't ask too many questions because she's just
focused on getting this body dumped. They throw him off
at the blue A Bridge into the river below, just
like they did with all the others if they're dumb. Sight.
Back at home, the news of Emmy's disappearance has spread,
and it's all over social media because he was kind
of like a sort of like social media like kind
of popular dude. He has family, he has money. Oh

(02:47):
I don't want to know what happened to him. Yeah,
and Ala decides to post on Instagram about like about
his disappearance, where she admits to being like the last
person to see him and Courdya's a girl, what the
fuck are you doing?

Speaker 1 (03:01):
That's yeah, not smart.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
It was like it'd be weird if I didn't post
about it. It was his girlfriend, so yeah, like I said,
when it works in the hospitals and a nurse, which
is why she's skearted cleaning blood and there's a patient
there there's been in a coma for months, and she's
talking about about like everything that happened because she ain't
talked to anyone else about it, and this guy was
in Nacoma, so no harm, no fout, And so she's

(03:26):
like there when this doctor who she works with her
she's really in two finds her and it's like, hey,
I got bad news. They're gonna pull the plug on
this guy soon, the coma guy is but also good news.
You're probably gonna be made a head nurse. And she's
not surprised because she's the best nurse there, but she
guys love the attention from him, and it's like and
he's like, we should celebrate when you get the most.

(03:46):
She's like, oh my, that would be so great.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
She's like, yes, hot, doctor, I would love that.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
So back at home, Court is trying to find the
knife that her sister used because her sister will not
get rid of it. But it's really something she shouldn't
like just hold onto because it's a murder weapon. Yeah.
It was their father's knife, and he like love this thing.
He would show it off to anyone who came to
their house and he'd like make up all these stories
about how he got it. He'd be like it's from
this prince or whatever, and it was none of it's true. Yeah,

(04:15):
he was also an abusi piece of shit, but I
also took the knife after he died, and she's like,
it's all I have left of him. Unclear if she's
talking about her dad or Femmi. Who knows. So later
that day, their mom makes I will go to the
kitchen to try to learn how to cook from Cory
because she's like, you need to, like, you're not gonna
be a good wife if you don't know how to cook.

(04:36):
And so she tries to post a picture on snampshot
of them cooking, and Courty's like, girls, seriously, you're so stupid.
Do not do that, though he did before she could
postcause she's like, yuh, look at this soup. And she's like, bitch,
you're in morning, so work. The next day, Cordy brings
some of the food she made to you. Take the
doctor who takes a bite and he's like, oh my god,
you're gonna make someone an awesome wife one day. And

(04:58):
she's like, oh my god, I.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Know your wife. What who said that?

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Because she's like a really good cook and like and
good at baking, but also a great nurse. Girl does
it all.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
She does it all.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
So she leaves in his office and goes back to
the waiting room when i Aila walks in and everybody
stops to stare at how hot she is, because she's
truly the hottest person in the world. Her only flaw
is that she's short, so.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
She wears seals ah easy fixed yeah, and they're.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Like visibly ship when they find out she's Cordy's sister,
and they're like, oh my god, you too related? How
you nothing like her? Gredya On Hearstade's voice and tries
to get her a little leave before like e sees her,
but it's too late and they meet later. He asks
forty if I was single and if she mind he
got like her number, and she's like, I'll ask, but

(05:45):
she has no intention of asking. She doesn't want that
to happen. But that does not matter because it shows
up her work again. It's like, hey, I want to
get lunch. Cordy's like trying to get her leave, so
she's like, oh, I'm too busy, and he's like what
takes Like what, Oh my god, I'm free, Let's go
get lunch together.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Oh no, yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
So that night, Cordy goes into Eola's room and it's like, hey,
you can't like see Tay, you can't date him. You
need to take a break from guys right now. Anyways,
you know you.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Just murdered your boyfriend, remember haha? Who said that?

Speaker 2 (06:13):
And I was like, oh my god, did you gotta
hurt him? That's crazy? And then she says he's like
actually she said, but you know what, he's actually not
that good of a guy. He's just like all the
other guys. All they want is a pretty bass and
is she wrong? Cordy tries to tell her, he like,
isn't like that, but I'll she won't listen, so Tate
they go like they start dating and he buys her

(06:35):
orchids and she texts him and she's like, I actually
like roses. These orchids are laying. So then he sends
her a funck ton of roses.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
He takes her out, buys her a gold bracelet, but
then she kind of starts to like ghost him. At
this point, the Feminius is cooled off and things seem
like they're in the clear, but then a witness comes
forward and he's like, hey, I saw two women leaving
family's house that night he died like disappeared.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Sucks.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Yeah, no, it unconcerned, but Cordy very concerned. She makes
it a little bit over like a story with her
and I was like, okay, we could just say that
you came over to help me break things off with him,
and we both left it and he was allowed we
left and we don't know what happened. The cops do
end up coming to their house because they're like, identify
this with people who were last seeing with him. Yeah,

(07:21):
They're like, hey, what's up? And so they tell them
the story and I got her like a little sus
and the mom is their mom is there and she's pissed.
So the cops didn't even question her daughters and she
ends up just telling them to get the fuck out
when they're like, hey, can we go look at your
car to Cordy because she said she drove there. Yeah,
And so then they come the next day though, and
they have a warrant and they take her car to
get examined, so they take it out. She has of

(07:41):
course cleaned it super well, like there's no choice ending
in there, but she's still worried. She then doesn't have
a car, so she tells the like, I'm taking your
car work, because like this is your fault, so now
I take your car.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
So Corny comes downstairs one night like to see an
older dude in their house and he's waiting for Iola
and he's just like, oh yeah, like I'm Wannia Perry's sister,
and he says that they've been seeing each other for
a while and he's like, yeah, I'm the guy started
Like who paid to start her fashion design business because
she's like a fashion designer and she makes all her
own clothes.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
Oh that's cool.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Yeah, And they all have told Cordy that she started
her business using money she got from her YouTube videos,
and she made a whole big deal about it, saying
like she's such a good business woman, she has such
great business sense and that's how she shades of all
her money and like Courty's like, wow, she's such a
fucking liar, dam give her all this money. She also
knows that this man is married, and he notices her noticing.

(08:35):
He's like, oh, don't worry, I only knows about it.
And she's like, I'm more worried about your wife.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
Okay, does she know about it?

Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yeah? And so Corny goes up to Iyola and she's like, girl,
what about Tate And she's like, well, well he doesn't know,
won't hurt him because like they have they're still technically dating,
But she doesn't give a fuck. She Yeah. Cordy then
thinks about how her guy used to like her dad
used to be like this older guy who'll go out
with the two younger girls, and she dung their mom
all the time, and he once brought home like some

(09:05):
girl who was like a teenager, legal but young. Her
mom freaked out and grabbed the scroll by her hair
because like she was awake and threw her down on
the ground in or like she freaked out, and so
the dad grabbed them mom by the hair, oh crazy,
threw her down on the ground and hit her. And
this girl was like hot, that's what you get for

(09:26):
messing with my man.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
Like girl, what girl?

Speaker 2 (09:31):
Red flags? But then they went to like and then
he took his mistress up to him and his wife's
bedroom while their mom was on the ground crying because
she just was attacked their husband, and so Cordy and yeah, Corney,
I would go to help their mom. And after that,
their mom just started taking a lot of ambient.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
Yike.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Yeah, So at work, Cordy goes into Dade's office and
he's like, I think your sister seeing someone else, and
she doesn't one to like tell him that she knows,
so she's like, well almost, she's like really bad at relationships. Yeah,
this is not the right thing to say, though, because
then Tede goes off on her and he's like, oh
my god, oh it is so right. You are so
mean and you do hate her, and honestly, you're a
terrible sister. You're supposed to love and protect her and

(10:12):
you like don't.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Oh shit, is like what the actual fuck?

Speaker 2 (10:17):
And she's so confused because why if they will overhear
talking about her saying she's a bad sister when she
literally has helped her cover up three murders at this point,
makes herself through three boyfriends and she's helped her and
she's like in this bitch saying it don't protect her?
What the fuck? But she can't say this, so she
just like she's like, I'm not fucking taking this for me.
I'm not gonna have you bitch me out for being

(10:38):
a bad sister. She's the older sister, so it's like
you're supposed to protect her. She's like your responsibility yep,
and she's like, this is so fucked up. So she's
later called into another doctor's office and so she's seeing
the promotion of head nurse and she's not surprised, but
she's like sad now because she was looking forward to
celebrating with Tede but obviously that's not going to happen

(10:58):
because he's hates her for being no that's sister at
the moment, Yeah, just a piece of shit to her.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
Not ideal.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
No. So at home, Elive returns because apparently she was
in Dubai with the rich older day she was seeing
she'd just been gone for a few days, okay, and
she goes to Cordy and it's like, oh, look at
all these cool should I got in Dubai. Oh and
also the guy got a food poisoning and he's like, girl,
what he's dead? And I was like, yeah, he just
got sick and dropped dead. I did call for help,

(11:29):
but it was just like too late. He was already
like too dead, girl, Yeah, were you totally like she
doesn't totally believe her, but also all of our other
kills were with a knife, so like, maybe it is true.
She's never poisoned before, so maybe who knows. She tools
the guy to like see what's up, and she sees
like news articles saying he died in an overdose, which
isn't the story that it gave her, So that is

(11:50):
a little sas and she was like, he's a bunch
of stuff. His wife and she's like, his wife looks
like such a nice lady. Like this poor woman. She
feels so bad for her.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
Yeah, so she it was about her day.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
Being a boss bitch and having people complain about it.
When like she gets more news, her komba friend is, oh,
wake woke up.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
So she remembers everything she ever said to him.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
You will see. So she reads to the room where
his family is with him, and he's like, fully, wait,
functional does not seem like she's in a coma for months.
She runs out of his room in a panic, but
later goes back in to like check on him to
see if he remembers anything like that she told him. Yeah,
he's like, hey, I remember your voice, like you're the
reason I woke up, Like you were there for me.
He's so thankful for her, and he's like, I remember

(12:35):
you told me that your sister is a serial killer,
and she's like, well, you know, people often kind of
like are delusional when they wake up from a coma,
so don't believe like everything you think you heard.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
Yeah, and then that night she.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Has a dream about Femi and in it she sees
where I all had hid, like the knife. It's not
but she's like, this whole time she's been like reading
for me. He like wrote poetry and she's like this
guy seemed like kind of cool, Like it's such a
fucked up like she's feeling really about his staff. Yeah.
The next morning, on her way to work, a woman
is standing outside the house. So Cordy rolls down her

(13:06):
window and it's like, what do you want? And this
woman's like I want to happened if Amy and Cody's like,
oh shit, this is his sister and she tries, but
the sister opens her car door while she's like trying
to drive away, and she's like, I know if I
like wouldn't have just like left without saying anything, because
kind of that's their story. They're like, oh, he just dipped,
and she's like, he wouldn't do that. So then Naola

(13:29):
comes outside and she's like, paid you, and the sister's like,
you saw my brother last please just tell him what
happened to him, Like not knowing he's the worst part. Yeah,
And then I was like, oh, do you think he's dead?
And the sister just starts sobbing. So he goes to
like pack her back, and Cordy's like, kind of updat
that his killers the one who's comforting her. I went, okay, Yeah.
So Cordy goes to work and Ted calls her under

(13:50):
his office and he shows her ring and he's like,
do you think I'll like it? And Cody laughs and
he's like, it's too soon to propose to my sister.
You've been dating for like a couple of months.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
You know that she has all these side dudes too,
Like yeah, Well.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
He's like it's all good. I love her and I
don't care that she shaded on me. She told me
about that guy, oh shit. And Courty's like, what do
you even like about her? And I can't name anything
specific about besides the fact that she's pretty oof, so me,
it's just like all the others. But Cordy's like, okay,
like I was a bad person. She will hurt you,

(14:24):
like she will physically hurt you. Yeah, and she even
tells him that she killed guy and he's like, oh
my god, Iola told me you were that you were
blaming her for that guy's death, because you know, yeah,
and it's like she told me you were like telling
her it was her fault. That's so fucked up. Then
he tells Cody that she's just like jealous of her
sister and really is kind of a bitch, and Courty's like, okay,

(14:44):
the dam is too small, Viola anyway, like she won't
like it. It's too tiny, and she leaves, and one
of the other nurses come by and tells, like, Homa
guy's asking for her, and she's not in the mood really,
but she goes to the room and he's gotten her
popcorn with syrup on it because he remembers her talking
about how but she liked that as a snack when
he was in the koma.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
Okay, he's a nice guy.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Yeah, she is touched by the gesture, but she's also
not supposed to accept gets from patience, so she just
kind of like sets it aside.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Yeah, reasonable, I guess I think you could eat some popcorn,
but whatever, nobody will know.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
Then he tells her that most people wouldn't turn in
their loved one for a crime and like, let her
secret is save with him. He's like, don't even worry
about it.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
He's like, also, i'm a cop, so once I'm healthy.
Actually he's a professor, but oh, okay.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
Don't worry. And then she's like relieved and tells him
she worries that iolam kill her current boyfriend, and he's like, boy,
you gotta try and save this dude. You can't just
like keep wanting her kill. You gotta help somehow. So
on the day their dad died, or like the day
before their dad died, he had a man at the house.
He might feel like a chief from one of the
villages the way he like acted and like dressed this

(15:51):
step I'm on this man style. Iola, who was like
thirte handed time. He was like instantly upperb about it.
And they later hear their dad talk about this man
and like someding about a deal and a girl. So yes, uh,
Courdy is talking to Matar, who is the Kama guy
when his son comes in with a girl and he's like, hey,

(16:12):
I'm trying to talk to my dad and Court's like, oh,
I'll leave, but come my guy's like, nah, stay and
she's like cool, okay, and this sounds like fine, And
he's like, I want to marry this girl who's with me,
And so that's like what happened to the girl we
were going to marry before I went into this coma. Yeah,
and he said he didn't like that didn't work out,
but I love Mariam, and so give us some money
and your approvals could get married. And coma who was like,

(16:34):
I gave you money for the last girl you said
you want to marry. I'm not doing this again. Yeah,
get the fuck out.

Speaker 1 (16:40):
Reasonable And he.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Also just like say sorry Mariam, who has been like
kneeling in front of him, walk with you the whole time,
because like that's like traditions, just like wait for its approval.
He's like like, this isn't your fall, this is me
and my son thing.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
So they leave all mad, and he thinks Cody for
being there because he's like, he gave me the strength
to say no to my son. So they're like friends.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Also, the audacity to ask your dad who just woke
up from a coma, to be like, hey, I know
you just woke up, but can you give me money.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Marry his girl.

Speaker 1 (17:11):
I just want to get married.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Dad.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
I know you just woke up, but like I have
a life.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
You shouldn't have been in a coma. That's on him.
So when they were kids in school, this like goes
back and forth acade between the childhood and like present day.
So when they were kids in school, a boy came
over who like liked aola, and she didn't invite He
just like came over to their house, and then her
dad talked with him and was very nice and charming,

(17:37):
as he always was in front of people. He's always sorry.
But then once the boy left, he made it always
stand in front of him and he called her a
slut and said he was like, why am I just
sending you to school so you can sleep around this
this some guy who she's not interested in. So Cordy
like goes up and grabs Alla's hands so she won't
be alone when she's getting whipped because her dad's about

(17:59):
to be her and the dad always stops hitting her
with because he's being with a cane when the mom's like, hey,
it's gonna leave marks some people can see. Because that's
the only way the mom could get him to stop.
She trying to protect your kids, but she's also abused.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
So the next day at school, the boy tells like
Cordy like, oh my god, your dad is so cool.
But she never speaks to this kid again because her
dad is not cool.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Not cool.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
At work, Cordy goes into Dade's office when he's with
a patient and she tries to break the diamond, like
off the diamond ring, but diamonds don't break easily, so
she instead just like breaks the setting and steals the diamond.
Then she stages the scene to try and make it
look like someone broke in to steal stuff. Okay, And
one of the other nurses like when this discovery tries

(18:45):
to put some gender and he ends up getting fired.
But Tate's like us suspicious of party. Yeah, and he's like,
weird that this guy's worked here for years and it's
never done anything. And also that none of the drugs
were stolen out of my office, just the.

Speaker 1 (18:59):
Diamond, this one ring that he probably didn't even know about.
But okay, I was like, you're the one person on
the show.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
But SU's okay. But to try to take her mind
off things, Cory's like watching TV in bed in her room,
when she gets a call from Iola and she rushes
to Ted's house where he opens the door and she
runs past her. She's like, where's my sister and he
tells her and she runs upstairs with Viola on the
ground with a knife in her side, oof, and Tate's like,

(19:26):
I was defending myself, like she tried to attack me, Corny.
She manages up her sister's wound, but leaves the knife
in because you're supposed to, and Tate helps carry her,
like Gela, to the car to take her to the hospital,
and she does the one like call for help because
there'd be so many questions, and she's like, my sister
did try to attack this man's less questions the better. Yeah,

(19:49):
So they take her to the hospital they work at,
and she like gets called ahead and she's called for
the other doctor there to get ready for surgery. She's like,
my sister is his dad to get ready. So they
get outline just surgery and takes like, you know, I
didn't mean to do it. Corty's like, all I know
is that my sister had a knife inish side, and
if you tell me one about this, I will tell
them what I saw and trust me. They're not going

(20:09):
to take your side. Yeah, And he then, despite the
fact that I'll literally try to kill him, tells Corny
that she's the worst than I will love she. He's like,
you're a general person and worse than your sister. Bro. Yeah.
So the nurse on duty, he is like asking a
lot of questions about how Iola got stabbed. She's like
who did it? And she's like, oh my god, I'll

(20:31):
kill whoever did that because she's like this girl is
so pretty. I will defend her. She doesn't even know her. Really,
that's like, yeah, crazy, why do you think care so much?
What the fuck? She's my sister? You don't even know her.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:43):
But so their mom shows up then, of course, and
she's also asking what happened. But Courty's like, I don't know, No,
I don't know. She I came there, she was stabbed.

Speaker 1 (20:52):
Yep, that's all I know. That's all I got.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
Yeah. So I wakes up after like not too long,
she has surgery. She's fine, and the cop show up
obviously and they're like, hey, how'd you get stabbed? And
she's like, oh my god, Ted stabbed me. She's like,
I rejected his proposal. So we just attacked me out
of nowhere. Ecody is shocked that she would say this,
but she's like, well what else would I say? Like
got to explain the stabbing, darting the guy under the bush. Wow.

(21:19):
So Cordy goes to talk to Matar, the Koma guy
about this, who's like, hey, this is your chance to
tell you the truth, like for yourself. Yeah, but she
feels guilty about like not protecting your sister. She's like,
my sister dad gets stabbed. Alavatar's like, hey, I'm being
discharged soon, Like can I have your numbers so we
can keep in touch? And she's unsure. But when she
goes back to i Ow's room and like she's like

(21:42):
into giving a snummer, but she's like okay, and she
goes back to Alloa's room and it's like what really
happened and she's like, well, Tede told me that you
broke the rain he bought and that you were crazy
and jealous, and he said that he thinks you're the
one who killed Femi because you wanted like whatever I had,
and so Whatere is like what the fuck? Like how

(22:03):
can you even think that I was trying to kill him?
To protect you because he's gonna blame you for murder
and like, but then he overpowered me and got the
knife and also said that like Cordy was, He's like,
also told me that you were right about me, and
like she's like, what did you say about me? And
Cordy' is like, I just told him you were dangerous

(22:23):
because you are. And then Ola then asked, like what
she thinks she's gonna happen, and she's like, well, there's
gonna make an investigation. We just gotta helpe they believe
your story. And I was like, you mean our story
aunt dad. So the day after their dad died, their
aunt had come over to like tried to take Iola
to this chief's house. Or the day that their dad died.

(22:44):
So their aunt came over their dad's twin sister, and
she was like, hey, I'm trying to like she just
trying to take her to this house because their dad
already made a deal with him, and Cordy felt like
it was her job to protect your sister. So she
grabs Ola and throns to beat their aunt with a
cane and she tried to come near them, and then
she said I went off, and I was like dad's
gonna kill us this and Courty's like, not if we
kill him first. So they killed their dad understandably.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
Yeah, I kind of figured that they at least Aola
was involved in the killing of the father.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Yeah. Yeah, they did it together, so I don't I
think they count as her first kill. And she killed
two boyfriends and then probably the other guy. You'll see
she has like five tests the cops question. So the
cops come a question Iola about the whole or cush
A Cordy about the whole Ioa stabbing. Yeah, and she
sticks with Illoa the story about like Taya talked to her,
That's why I know, and only asked about Faman. She's like, hey,

(23:36):
coincidences and suspicions don't equal guilt, and she could tell
that they've seem like Ioa and they're like, she's too
ready to be a murderer. So thank Dane ends up
spending a couple of months in prison and he loses
his medical license. Courdy doesn't feel too bad right though,
because she's like, obviously I had to pick my sister's side,

(23:57):
and also that guy's.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Kind of what my sister said he was, I mean
kind of, but also your sister was lying about you
to him the whole time.

Speaker 2 (24:06):
So it's like, yeah, but he did just want to
be with her sister for being high. He was now substantial.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
That part is correct, yes, yeah, So she step in
her room.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Thinking about like calling Matar. When they're servants, they have
like this, they call her the house girl. She's like,
they're a house keeper. She comes down and she's like, hey,
they have a guest downstairs, like they want you to
come down. She's like fine, and she ends up burning
the number, like the phone number. She's like, I'm not
gonna call him. She has downstairs where she's introduced to

(24:36):
her sister's newest victim. The end.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Okay, I really thought something was gonna happen with the
Koma guy. So I'm kind of mad that that just
died off. And she was just like nope.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
Well she's like, ah, he wants me to turn to
my sister, like he would tell me the right thing
to do, and I don't want to do that.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
I guess she's pretty much just picks her sister. I mean,
I get why she picked her sister. There's a lot
of history there, obviously. I get why she doesn't want
to turn her sister in but.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Her sister has killed maybe three to four.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
People, yeah, and was trying to get another one. But whatever.

Speaker 2 (25:18):
Okay, So this got three point sixty seven stars, which
I was a little low, but I mean pretty average.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
For ratings, pretty average, okay. The strugger, the struggle, the
struggle of an eldest daughter slash sister captured perfectly. And
then there's like a little okay, little hand five stars.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
He yes, you are technically the eldest daughter, but the
only daughter, so I can't.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
But if you count my stepsisters, I'm the youngest.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Oh see that makes sense.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
I can't relate, that's all you, Sidney.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah, okay, I have this sitting on my shelf for years.
Definitely should have read it sooner. Quick read great protects.
Learn that maga means full in Nigerian pigeon four stars.
They do say mag at one point, and I'm like,
what mine new I forget? Is like Nigerian words?

Speaker 1 (26:09):
Yeah, there are different languages that yeah. Wow, Okay, not
sure why this is a book, but okay, three stars, okay, okay.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
In other news, it's very engaging, even if it's a
not so great book filled with frustrating characters two point
fist stars.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
I mean it is very engaging. I think they're realistic
characters in a way. I mean people are flawed, people
are stupid, Like, yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
You can't have not once like a hero character. She's
gonna pick your family.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
Yeah, okay, I disliked every single character and did not
enjoy the story that was being told. No star rating,
yeah I couldn't find it.

Speaker 2 (26:56):
One star, but there's a couple like zero stars. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
Whatever.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
Okay, here's some of the questions I have for you.
You don't have a sister besides your stepsisters, I guess,
But would you have turned your sister in for a murder?

Speaker 1 (27:12):
So that is a toughie because I feel like at
the end there it is directly interfering with her job,
her life, her livelihood, and it's obvious her sister cannot
control herself and is dangerous, so it's like a matter
of time before they get caught. But I don't in

(27:32):
that instance, I don't know if I would have.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
It would be hard I think to be like, maybe
it would help less, Yeah, to fully just wrap her out.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
That's a tough one because I mean, yeah, she's fully
like if her sister gets in trouble. She's in trouble too, like.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
Oh, she's a godless she's going to jail forever.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah, yeah, So I don't know.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
Okay, do you think she poisoned that guy?

Speaker 1 (28:01):
Definitely, no doubt about it.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
It's weird that she didn't stab him. Maybe she just
didn't have her knife on her because she flew.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
I don't know, a good point, and it is like,
what did she poison him with?

Speaker 2 (28:13):
Well, he the way it was like described is he
like had like a phoae me at the mouth and
they called it an overdose, and so she could have
just gave him like a lot of drugs or something
to make him moody.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Yeah yeah, but I die dawning in her presence.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
It's us.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
It is sus. But yeah, that's a good point. She
only stabs because then she tries to stab another guy
after that. So I guess you could either read it
as she tried to branch out and it didn't work back,
so she went back to the classic or maybe it
is a crazy coincidence that this man just like happened
to die around her. Okay, yeah it is.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
It would be a crazy coincidence, but it could happen.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
But I think she did.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
I think that's art. She proud of it. Yeah, okay,
this is really just all their dad's fault though, right,
Like they're only murder because she had an abusive father.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
They have a shitty abuse of dad that they watched.
Like that's a no control situation. I mean, yes, she's
still a bad person, Yes she still needs to take
credit for killing people. But yes, this is, in my opinion,
directly you can bring it back to their dad very easily. Yeah,
better dad would be a murderer maybe. Yeah, she's just

(29:29):
like you said, she's a women, women in men's fields.
You know, she's just doing what any man would do
in that situation exactly. She's breaking her own glass ceiling.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Okay, yeah, and she's pretty, so she's getting away with it.
Good for her double trouble. Okay, yeah, I see pretty
privilege Israel.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
And yes she's using it to her advantage. How many
pretty people, pretty ladies are using it that way?

Speaker 2 (29:55):
None of these guys see it coming because they don't
want to be stabbed by their girlfriend.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
No, they're just trying to fuck.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
So she's just a small little lady and they're like, oh.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
Shit, she's stabbing me, maybe think with your brain next time.
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (30:11):
And she was right about Tati. He just cared about
her being pretty.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Well, I'm surprised he didn't try to like throw her
under the bus, like I'm surprised he went to jail
and everything, honestly, well because not.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
Believed his story. He says, she tried to stab me.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
But they're like this girl now, pretty tiny little girl,
and like she wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
And you know what, Cordy was right. Suspicions and coincidences
don't equal guilt.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, and I wonder if she did, if Cordy tried
to turn on her sister, if her sister and Tate
would have teamed up, and I bet Cordy would have
gone to jail for it because she's not as pretty
I'm assuming as Yeah, she's not.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
She's described as like having like similar features, but like
her nose and eyes are just like a little too
big for her face or whatever. Like she's just not
as attractive. And her sister has like really great like
thick braids, and yeah, she has perfect body.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
The Cowboy book that I told you about, where the
the the pretty sister was beating boys up that that
wouldn't go out with the ugly sister, and then they
did turn The pretty sister did turn on the ugly sister,
and that bitch ended up in jail. Like what it
does happen?

Speaker 2 (31:31):
That's more what I expected. I mean, yeah, I went
her sister into the best. She is not a good person. Okay,
I do have some favor quotes. That's like, I guess right.
Oh here here's what I'm talking about. How they look

(31:52):
page fifty three. Okay, this is somebody asking like, oh
my god, I can't believe your sisters. The resemblance is there.
We share the same math, the same eyes, but I
ala looks like a bratstall and I resemble voodoo figurine.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
Ah wow, that's a really good way of putting it too.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
Mm hmm. Okay, this is only because Jordan claimed he's
never heard this song. Page one five. You're not the
only one suffering, you know. You f like you're carrying
this big thing all by yourself. But I worry too,
do you? Cause the other day you were singing, I
believe I can fly, I allow shrugs. It's a good song.

Speaker 1 (32:30):
Oh yeah, was this? It was semi recently that we
learned that Jordan didn't.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
Know any r.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Kelly songs apparently, and it's like, has he not seen
Ice Age? Whatever the fuck? When they have that song
and everyone was singing.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
It, it's a popular song.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
I know he's slightly younger than us, but it's like,
what two or three years, it's not that big of
a difference.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
And no, I still think he's just crazy.

Speaker 1 (32:56):
He's crazy, ain, no way.

Speaker 2 (32:59):
Oh, here's just the boat where they say maga page
one to eleven. The more he talks, the more I
realize that I'm a maga. A fool has been taken
advantage of that is ironic.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
I wonder was this written.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
He came out in twenty eighteen, Like.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
She's not American, so like she can put whatever she wants, like, well, yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
It's twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen. Yeah, but it's just like
a Nigerian word.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
Yeah, that just happens.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
Still line up perfectly, most likely. But yeah, yeah, it's
just a funny coincidence that I'm sure she realized, because
I mean, you'll.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
Live in the world, You'll live in the world. You
hear about it.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
But what all right? You got thoughts on this?

Speaker 1 (33:50):
Yeah? I liked it. It seems fun, A nice little book. Yeah,
I don't. I don't know if I would be helping
my sibling that much with murders, especially when it's just
like m I guess I don't have sisters. Well if
I'm not close with my stepsisters like that, so I
can't relate to the Maybe there is a bond that

(34:11):
would make sense with sisterhood. But like, I don't know.
If my brothers had a shitty girlfriend, I don't know
if I would help them clean up the mess. Very
curious how that played out the first time. Well, I
guess if it was their dad the first time, maybe
it makes sense.

Speaker 2 (34:27):
Yeah, well, like the first time was a boyfriend. She
she says like, oh they're mean, like they're beastive, like
they do these she has it seems like you have
self defense.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
Well, and that's the thing is it's like, okay, Well
I would think I guess I would think more of
like if one of my friends, like if you are Savannah,
was like, hey, I killed my boyfriend because he beat
on me, then I'd probably be like, oh shit, Like
I would be sympathetic. Would I help you clean up?
I don't know. I don't want to go to drinks
with me.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
Oh, I just don't have to clean it's my thing.
I'm not methodical I have. I would jump around too much.
I would forget things. I'd like, oh, there's something over here.
I'd leave that bathtib. I'd be like, oh shit, forgot
to finish that bathtib because I got distracted.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
And I would do the same thing, and so we'd
have weird amounts of things cleaned up. But I do
think you'd get caught, Sidney. I'm sorry, I do you
think it.

Speaker 2 (35:12):
Would because I'm I'm not thoughtful enough. But yeah, like
I think the first time, yeah, but then by the
third she's like, Okay, all of these guys is a
little munch.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
Have you seen that video of that girl where she's like,
fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice, shame
on you or whatever, and then she's like, fool me
three times, four times? Oh my god, that's this.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
Yeah. Anyway, she just you can't be like okay everyone,
because that's what she's like. Reading Fummy's blog and she's like,
he doesn't seem like that type of guy, Like he's
writing these poems, these family seems like he doesn't seem
that the guy she painted him to be.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
And her sister is using the pretty privilege on her
and she doesn't even realize it.

Speaker 2 (35:58):
Yeah. Well, and this guy is like super clean too,
and like me thought she she's like, this guy's house
is so clean. He seems like a cool dude. She
just feels likes clean.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
Happy to be a shitty man. He's so clean.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
I mean, I guess, but yeah, like first time, second
maybe darn get Tiffy girl.

Speaker 1 (36:22):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
I mean, yeah, it was good book. I do recommend it.
I mean I liked it and can sing on my
shelf for a little while. I got it because I
like the cup. Well first fault title caught me. Cover cool.

Speaker 1 (36:33):
The cover's cool as hell.

Speaker 2 (36:35):
Yeah, like the colors. I didn't know what took place
in Nigeria until I started reading it. That was cool. Yeah.
At one point, she just like pay the cops get
her own car back. They like, return it, but they're like,
we're gonna need two thousand dollars first, and she's like,
fucking cops.

Speaker 1 (36:52):
Fucking cops, man, they're pigs everywhere. What can you say? Yeah, Okay,

Robin Wasserman, which I've read a book. I've read a
whole series by this bitch. Before she had this whole
series it's called like it was called Wired, I think,
and apparently she changed the name of the series. I

(37:39):
kind of went down a rabbit hole with this that
I'll probably talk about in the episode, But like, she
wrote a whole bunch of books, and I knew this
one series and it's like the one series that she like.
It's not advertised very much, like it's not her big thing,
