00:00:00 --> 00:00:03 When's the last time? When did we record part
00:00:03 --> 00:00:06 five is what I want to know. Oh, hi, Toast. It
00:00:06 --> 00:00:10 was, I think, before my trip to Japan. It was
00:00:10 --> 00:00:17 for sure. It was June 7th was the last recording
00:00:17 --> 00:00:21 on our calendar. It's currently September 15th.
00:00:21 --> 00:00:25 Are you kidding me? It was June? Where July and
00:00:25 --> 00:00:31 August go. Exactly. Thank you for coming back
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33 from our replay reviews. My name is Leah. And
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35 my name is Kathy. We are two friends who are
00:00:35 --> 00:00:38 here to replay, review, and analyze your favorite
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40 video games. And since Kathy has never seen the
00:00:40 --> 00:00:43 games before, it helps me view them through her
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45 fresh eyes, almost like I'm discovering them
00:00:45 --> 00:00:47 again for the first time. We hope it will be
00:00:47 --> 00:00:56 a similar experience for you. Anything you want
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58 to say before we start the summary for Mafia
00:00:58 --> 00:01:04 2? Not much. I will say... Actually, I'm going
00:01:04 --> 00:01:07 to wait until topic one. Okay. What is topic
00:01:07 --> 00:01:12 one? Veto. Just one word. But with the extra
00:01:12 --> 00:01:17 given time between June and now September, I
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19 think my emotions have calmed down a bit. The
00:01:19 --> 00:01:23 hate isn't as strong as it was back in June.
00:01:23 --> 00:01:27 But I think we can still agree on that. He's
00:01:27 --> 00:01:30 not a really good character. And I guess my hate
00:01:30 --> 00:01:34 is, it's not that, I mean, I know I say I hate
00:01:34 --> 00:01:36 Vito, but what I really mean is I hate how they
00:01:36 --> 00:01:40 wrote Vito. Yes. As the character, it makes sense.
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42 And that's one thing I found is that there are
00:01:42 --> 00:01:45 some people who have issues with him like we
00:01:45 --> 00:01:48 do. Other people like that he's just like a true
00:01:48 --> 00:01:52 criminal. He's not a rat or someone trying to
00:01:52 --> 00:01:55 do good. But I feel like they just, they fell
00:01:55 --> 00:01:58 short with his character still, like the writing.
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01 There just weren't good scenes for Vito. And
00:02:01 --> 00:02:05 I think even if he is a criminal, he'd still
00:02:05 --> 00:02:10 have some emotion or some moral compass, even
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13 if it's a completely skewed moral compass. Agreed.
00:02:13 --> 00:02:17 And for me, I went a bit deeper into thinking
00:02:17 --> 00:02:21 about what makes a good character good. So to
00:02:21 --> 00:02:25 me, I guess I would say 80 % of it is all about
00:02:25 --> 00:02:28 the character art. And I split into four different
00:02:28 --> 00:02:30 categories and this is pretty generic. There's
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32 the other category, but mainly they either start
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35 good and then they go bad or they start good
00:02:35 --> 00:02:38 and continue to do good. And the problem is Vito
00:02:38 --> 00:02:41 doesn't fit into any of those groups. It's pretty
00:02:41 --> 00:02:44 anticlimactic of a storyline. He has no growth.
00:02:44 --> 00:02:47 He makes enough money to help Frankie with her
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49 debt, but then continues to be in the mafia.
00:02:49 --> 00:02:52 So there's no reason why he continues to do that
00:02:52 --> 00:02:55 or any reasons to be in the mafia. And then he
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57 doesn't like his own dad, doesn't really care
00:02:57 --> 00:03:00 for his mom when he's out of jail. And then all
00:03:00 --> 00:03:01 of a sudden in the end, he's like, I need to
00:03:01 --> 00:03:05 kill because I need to seek revenge for you killing
00:03:05 --> 00:03:09 my father to the guy at the docks. It's like
00:03:09 --> 00:03:13 he's just jumping at any opportunity to do bad,
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15 to be violent. You know, it's like he didn't
00:03:15 --> 00:03:18 care about his dad until, oh, well, there's this
00:03:18 --> 00:03:20 person responsible right here. So I'd be justified
00:03:20 --> 00:03:23 if I killed them. I just feel like he searches
00:03:23 --> 00:03:26 for excuses to do something bad. Exactly. But
00:03:26 --> 00:03:28 I want to know why. Like, does he feel that the
00:03:28 --> 00:03:30 system is pushing him? You know what I mean?
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32 They just needed to give us a little bit more,
00:03:32 --> 00:03:36 and then I think he's more compelling. Let's
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39 move on to topic two. All right. Ending reactions.
00:03:39 --> 00:03:42 Mine's short, so I'll just go ahead. Mine is
00:03:42 --> 00:03:46 too. It's bad. It's not even like in a, wow,
00:03:46 --> 00:03:49 that's so dumb kind of way, but more of a, what
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51 a letdown. kind of way like there just isn't
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54 an ending at all i would rather have more meat
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57 even if it's rotten meat you know what i mean
00:03:57 --> 00:04:01 yeah and what drives me nuts is that if there
00:04:01 --> 00:04:06 was more to it i would have appreciated a to
00:04:06 --> 00:04:09 be continue at the end of it if they don't continue
00:04:09 --> 00:04:12 with this i would almost suspect that they ran
00:04:12 --> 00:04:15 out of budget and money to finish out the storyline
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18 they said well that's that's it we're about to
00:04:18 --> 00:04:21 go unemployed and Just throw something at the
00:04:21 --> 00:04:25 wall, let it stick, and then just call it. Yeah.
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27 If the third game is any sort of continuation,
00:04:28 --> 00:04:31 they're going to need to do a lot better. Okay.
00:04:32 --> 00:04:35 I don't know why that was so high pitched. Are
00:04:35 --> 00:04:38 we ready for our third topic, which is our good
00:04:38 --> 00:04:43 old burning questions? Who is this lady, Kathy?
00:04:43 --> 00:04:49 I have no clue. Why are... If anyone even cares
00:04:49 --> 00:04:54 about her. I feel like the game is trying to
00:04:54 --> 00:04:58 use sex appeal to attract people into this game,
00:04:58 --> 00:05:01 but they're horribly done. It's awkward. It's
00:05:01 --> 00:05:05 clunky. It's disgusting. Well, to build off of
00:05:05 --> 00:05:07 that, she doesn't even have a name from what
00:05:07 --> 00:05:10 I found. She's literally just Joe's girl. I checked
00:05:10 --> 00:05:13 the Mafia 2 wiki, found out she's just Joe's
00:05:13 --> 00:05:16 girl. We never know her name. But it does also
00:05:16 --> 00:05:19 mention a few things, that she is sweet on Clemente
00:05:19 --> 00:05:21 and has been seen with Eddie Scarpa and Luca
00:05:21 --> 00:05:25 Guarino. I couldn't find a whole lot of people
00:05:25 --> 00:05:28 speculating about her, which I was very disappointed.
00:05:28 --> 00:05:31 I thought that there would be more mystery online
00:05:31 --> 00:05:34 surrounding her. My theory, by the end of the
00:05:34 --> 00:05:37 game, Clemente and Guarino, two of the men that
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40 she was involved with, are dead. And Scarpa's
00:05:40 --> 00:05:44 status is unknown. joe we think is probably maybe
00:05:44 --> 00:05:48 dead too a lot of the men she's been involved
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49 with and it could just be because people in the
00:05:49 --> 00:05:52 mafia die right but i have this itching feeling
00:05:52 --> 00:05:55 that she's like a snitch and maybe she was even
00:05:55 --> 00:05:58 brought on by henry because he saw that she was
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00 around a lot and i mean yeah they all the mafia
00:06:00 --> 00:06:03 guys seem to have girls but a lot of the guys
00:06:03 --> 00:06:05 she rubbed shoulders with her dead so i don't
00:06:05 --> 00:06:08 know if it's a coincidence because she was also
00:06:08 --> 00:06:11 trying to like flirt with veto too so it seems
00:06:11 --> 00:06:14 like she was going after mafia guys i'm either
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16 convinced that that's the case she's a snitch
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18 or she was supposed to have a larger storyline
00:06:18 --> 00:06:22 and they just they just didn't do it they scrapped
00:06:22 --> 00:06:27 it i'm happy to accept that being her her background
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29 story because it's so much better than whatever
00:06:29 --> 00:06:33 it is and can i also add that And watching some
00:06:33 --> 00:06:35 of the gameplays again. When she was inviting
00:06:35 --> 00:06:39 Vito into the bathtub with her, she had her shoes
00:06:39 --> 00:06:42 on, I'm pretty sure. I know, I noticed that too.
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45 Also, the woman that she calls to has a name.
00:06:45 --> 00:06:48 I forget what it is. But she doesn't have a name.
00:06:48 --> 00:06:52 Yeah, but why does she have a name and not Joe's
00:06:52 --> 00:06:56 girl? So the second question I have is, what
00:06:56 --> 00:06:58 were your thoughts about the whole Tommy scene
00:06:58 --> 00:07:03 being included in Mafia 2? I like it. I like
00:07:03 --> 00:07:06 that this is the connection we get that ties
00:07:06 --> 00:07:09 it together. And I think we've said it. The issue
00:07:09 --> 00:07:14 is, I don't care about these two characters.
00:07:14 --> 00:07:18 I don't care about Vito and Joe. And it just
00:07:18 --> 00:07:21 only works if we're meant to dislike them. But
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23 I don't feel like that's what the writers want
00:07:23 --> 00:07:25 is for us to dislike them. So I'm confused on
00:07:25 --> 00:07:28 what I'm supposed to be feeling. When what I
00:07:28 --> 00:07:30 really feel is, hey, that's an interesting connection,
00:07:30 --> 00:07:33 but I wish that they'd done it better. I'm leaning
00:07:33 --> 00:07:36 towards not liking this scene. One, because it
00:07:36 --> 00:07:40 was just too out of the blue. And two, it kind
00:07:40 --> 00:07:43 of disrespects Tommy's whole storyline where
00:07:43 --> 00:07:46 Tommy did it. And yes, some would say he's a
00:07:46 --> 00:07:50 rat, but he had built up this legacy and then
00:07:50 --> 00:07:53 he was able to retire and just kind of wash his
00:07:53 --> 00:07:56 hands clean of it. And then you have two low
00:07:56 --> 00:07:59 lives. killing him all because they're short
00:07:59 --> 00:08:02 on cash because they weren't being financially
00:08:02 --> 00:08:05 responsible when it comes to selling drugs well
00:08:05 --> 00:08:08 and the fact that in my opinion it was done poorly
00:08:08 --> 00:08:13 kind of it doesn't ruin but sort of like sully's
00:08:13 --> 00:08:16 the perfect ending that mafia one had like that
00:08:16 --> 00:08:20 ending was so good and you're like oh shit family's
00:08:20 --> 00:08:22 forever the family found him and killed yeah
00:08:22 --> 00:08:25 and so knowing that The family that actually
00:08:25 --> 00:08:28 killed him is these two knuckleheads that can't
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30 get their shit together. And it's an unrelated
00:08:30 --> 00:08:35 family. So that kind of annoys me too. Wouldn't
00:08:35 --> 00:08:38 Salieri want to be sure it gets done? I just
00:08:38 --> 00:08:42 don't feel like he would trust another family
00:08:42 --> 00:08:45 to do this. But I don't know. I just think that
00:08:45 --> 00:08:48 the fact that it's those two that do it is kind
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51 of a letdown. Because it feels disconnected from
00:08:51 --> 00:08:56 Salieri in a way. Agreed. Okay, is that it for
00:08:56 --> 00:08:59 your question? Should I do mine? We got into
00:08:59 --> 00:09:02 this a little bit in part five, but why did Vito
00:09:02 --> 00:09:07 hate Falcone so much? Why the dramatic monologue?
00:09:08 --> 00:09:11 We seem to be justified in this moment not sitting
00:09:11 --> 00:09:14 well with us because it turns out, from my research,
00:09:14 --> 00:09:18 there was cut content where Falcone set up Henry.
00:09:19 --> 00:09:22 and it proves that he was the one who sent the
00:09:22 --> 00:09:25 fake cops during that drug deal, which essentially
00:09:25 --> 00:09:27 outs him to the tongs and ends up getting him
00:09:27 --> 00:09:30 killed. Apparently, in this cut content, Henry
00:09:30 --> 00:09:32 was not actually an informant. He was just strictly
00:09:32 --> 00:09:35 set up to look like one because he was pushing
00:09:35 --> 00:09:38 it into Falcone's territory. Oh, no. But this
00:09:38 --> 00:09:40 was changed, and we now instead have Leo saying,
00:09:40 --> 00:09:44 confirming that he was a rat. I think that they
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46 should have edited the monologue to fit this
00:09:46 --> 00:09:51 new concept. I always did have some doubts on
00:09:51 --> 00:09:54 Henry being a rat because I don't trust any of
00:09:54 --> 00:09:58 them saying he really is a rat unless I see evidence
00:09:58 --> 00:10:00 of it. I don't believe it. And so this makes
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03 me feel better that he was set up. It's like
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05 heavy rain all over again. The important stuff
00:10:05 --> 00:10:08 that you want to keep that makes it good ends
00:10:08 --> 00:10:11 up being cut. Even if they just cut out the part
00:10:11 --> 00:10:13 of Leo confirming he was a rat. So then we as
00:10:13 --> 00:10:15 the player and Vito is like, you're not sure.
00:10:16 --> 00:10:18 You can choose whether or not you want to believe
00:10:18 --> 00:10:20 it, and then it feels more like he was maybe
00:10:20 --> 00:10:23 set up. I don't know. I wish they'd kept in the
00:10:23 --> 00:10:27 setup part so that we understand his monologue
00:10:27 --> 00:10:29 better. But I do think that him being a rat is
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31 more interesting. I just wish that there was
00:10:31 --> 00:10:33 more content surrounding that. It would have
00:10:33 --> 00:10:36 been better if they said, we don't know if he's
00:10:36 --> 00:10:38 a rat or not, but better to kill him than to
00:10:38 --> 00:10:43 let him live. I put a topic of my own in here.
00:10:43 --> 00:10:46 Editing fines. This is stuff that I noticed while
00:10:46 --> 00:10:50 editing the video episodes that I'm like, how
00:10:50 --> 00:10:56 do we not talk about this? I have two that you
00:10:56 --> 00:11:00 just have to see. I'm going to show you the cleaning
00:11:00 --> 00:11:04 lady from Joe's apartment. All right. Remember
00:11:04 --> 00:11:08 what she looks like. I think she's in the building
00:11:08 --> 00:11:11 during the big shootout when they try to assassinate
00:11:11 --> 00:11:16 him. I think she pops out of the elevator. Tell
00:11:16 --> 00:11:19 me that's not her. Does she have red hair? Tell
00:11:19 --> 00:11:23 me that's not her. I think it is her. Good catch.
00:11:24 --> 00:11:27 How did she notice that? What did she do? I guess
00:11:27 --> 00:11:29 she cleans that. I don't know. I think it's the
00:11:29 --> 00:11:32 hair and the run. But she didn't run before,
00:11:32 --> 00:11:36 so ignore me. I had to highlight that. And then
00:11:36 --> 00:11:38 this thing. Oh my gosh, I can't believe we didn't
00:11:38 --> 00:11:42 see this in the video. It's disturbing. Just
00:11:42 --> 00:11:46 another great instance of this being a terrible
00:11:46 --> 00:11:50 definitive edition. What is wrong with Leo's
00:11:50 --> 00:11:55 eyes? Just keep watching. Where is Leo looking
00:11:55 --> 00:12:05 at? Not Vito. Why is his eye just... They're
00:12:05 --> 00:12:09 stuck. I don't like that. There's another thing
00:12:09 --> 00:12:12 that happens with the passenger in this car.
00:12:13 --> 00:12:18 So the guy right behind Leo. Wait for it. What?
00:12:21 --> 00:12:26 Oh, my God. Here we go again. What the heck?
00:12:27 --> 00:12:30 What did they do to them in this car? I don't
00:12:30 --> 00:12:35 know. Terrible. Again, why I think they ran out
00:12:35 --> 00:12:38 of money. You had to see it. I couldn't let that
00:12:38 --> 00:12:43 go by. The owl thing. That's shocking. So, topic
00:12:43 --> 00:12:48 five? KFC's Kathy's favorite character. First
00:12:48 --> 00:12:51 thing is Stale Biscuit. So I'm just going to
00:12:51 --> 00:12:57 have you guess. The lady. Oh, I probably could
00:12:57 --> 00:12:59 have. But I think as I was doing this, I was
00:12:59 --> 00:13:03 on too much of a hating veto train. So he ended
00:13:03 --> 00:13:06 up being a stale biscuit because he's not trash.
00:13:07 --> 00:13:12 But he's not KFC. I would rather he be trash,
00:13:12 --> 00:13:15 though. Oh, really? Because then he'd be more
00:13:15 --> 00:13:17 compelling if we hated him. But he's just stale.
00:13:18 --> 00:13:22 Yeah, that's worse to be stale than trash in
00:13:22 --> 00:13:27 this instance. As the main character. Yeah. Which
00:13:27 --> 00:13:31 then, kind of on the opposite side, is post -game
00:13:31 --> 00:13:35 KFC. So, my favorite character? I think you can
00:13:35 --> 00:13:41 guess this one. I'm hoping it's Henry. Yep. Again,
00:13:41 --> 00:13:45 the fact that he can probably have his own prequel,
00:13:45 --> 00:13:49 maybe in Mafia 2 .5. A whole other game. Yeah.
00:13:49 --> 00:13:52 That's how good his character was. I want to
00:13:52 --> 00:13:55 see him start as a cop and just turn bad and
00:13:55 --> 00:13:57 go full Mafia. Because then we're not doing what
00:13:57 --> 00:13:59 Tommy did where he was like, oh, I'm going to
00:13:59 --> 00:14:02 rat out the family. then it's it's the opposite
00:14:02 --> 00:14:05 it's good good turning bad that's what i want
00:14:05 --> 00:14:08 to see that'd be pretty good there's that whole
00:14:08 --> 00:14:12 added level of if one side finds out like if
00:14:12 --> 00:14:14 the mafia finds out they're not going to believe
00:14:14 --> 00:14:17 that i really like i'm actually working for them
00:14:17 --> 00:14:19 and i enjoy this but if the cops find out like
00:14:19 --> 00:14:21 they can't find out you know what i mean yeah
00:14:21 --> 00:14:24 i'm done for so it's like you're not safe either
00:14:24 --> 00:14:26 way and that's why it would be so good it'd be
00:14:26 --> 00:14:29 stressful Okay, whoever writes these games needs
00:14:29 --> 00:14:32 to reach out to us because we have some ideas.
00:14:33 --> 00:14:38 Watch it be the third game. Okay. So, post -game
00:14:38 --> 00:14:42 KS. Kentucky Scorcher. The character, I think,
00:14:42 --> 00:14:47 is visually the most good -looking one. Also,
00:14:47 --> 00:14:49 again, hoping you said Henry. Yes. These are
00:14:49 --> 00:14:53 easy guesses. That's how bad the characters are.
00:14:54 --> 00:14:56 There's only one good one in the whole game.
00:14:56 --> 00:15:01 Exactly. Oh, well. Okay, I'm kind of nervous
00:15:01 --> 00:15:04 because I can't remember. It's been so, so, so
00:15:04 --> 00:15:09 long since I did the Blind KS. So this is who
00:15:09 --> 00:15:13 I chose prior to knowing their storyline. I didn't
00:15:13 --> 00:15:16 go crazy and give you 14 options like I did in
00:15:16 --> 00:15:21 Red Dead. That was insane. 10. Oh, God. You didn't
00:15:21 --> 00:15:24 have as many notes this time. You say immediately
00:15:24 --> 00:15:28 second row, second guy. That's Vito. Really?
00:15:28 --> 00:15:36 Why does he kind of look Asian? I'm not going
00:15:36 --> 00:15:40 to comment on that. And then you said also second
00:15:40 --> 00:15:44 row, fourth guy. That's Henry. Okay. What did
00:15:44 --> 00:15:47 I say? I'm not really following your grammar
00:15:47 --> 00:15:50 yet. I'm going to have to read it out loud. Okay,
00:15:50 --> 00:15:51 let me start from the top. Immediately, second
00:15:51 --> 00:15:54 row, second guy, Vito. But why does he kind of
00:15:54 --> 00:15:56 look Asian? So I think that was your initial
00:15:56 --> 00:15:59 pick, was Vito. And then you said, also, second
00:15:59 --> 00:16:02 row, fourth guy, Henry. Because they must have
00:16:02 --> 00:16:04 modeled the character after Pierce Brosnan during
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07 his 007 days. And then you said, but I'm going
00:16:07 --> 00:16:11 to say, second row, second guy, which is Vito.
00:16:11 --> 00:16:14 Because he looks like Nathan Adrian, in parentheses,
00:16:15 --> 00:16:18 for my benefit, Olympic swimmer. Who happens
00:16:18 --> 00:16:20 to be my childhood crush during the Olympic Games.
00:16:21 --> 00:16:26 I just learned so much about you. I love watching
00:16:26 --> 00:16:29 you read the comments for the first time. Not
00:16:29 --> 00:16:31 understanding because when I type these things,
00:16:31 --> 00:16:34 there's no such thing as grammars. It goes completely
00:16:34 --> 00:16:38 out the window. Okay, but you have to say I could
00:16:38 --> 00:16:42 see past me. Okay, this was nearly 1 a .m. in
00:16:42 --> 00:16:45 the morning. So the unhinged grammar makes sense.
00:16:45 --> 00:16:50 It kind of does look Asian. I know. You chose
00:16:50 --> 00:16:53 a screen cap knowing that he's Italian. I picked
00:16:53 --> 00:16:57 the first one of high quality that I could find.
00:16:57 --> 00:17:00 I don't spend hours on these. Joe actually looks
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02 decent in the screenshot though. I will say.
00:17:03 --> 00:17:06 Stop. Better than what he actually looks like
00:17:06 --> 00:17:10 in the game because he looks like a stupid idiot.
00:17:10 --> 00:17:15 You're so close to picking Henry. So as part
00:17:15 --> 00:17:19 of KFC, I like to also do LFC, Leah's favorite
00:17:19 --> 00:17:21 character. I have to say it has to be Henry.
00:17:22 --> 00:17:24 He's the only character with substance in this
00:17:24 --> 00:17:27 whole game. I'm sorry. I don't want to hate on
00:17:27 --> 00:17:29 this game so much because I actually did enjoy
00:17:29 --> 00:17:31 the storyline. I didn't enjoy playing it, but
00:17:31 --> 00:17:35 I enjoyed digging into the story with you. But
00:17:35 --> 00:17:38 I will say if Henry was not in this game, it
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40 would be a lot worse. That's true. But we don't
00:17:40 --> 00:17:43 even get a lot of Henry screen time either. Nope.
00:17:44 --> 00:17:46 And he's still our favorite, so what does that
00:17:46 --> 00:17:51 tell you? Moving on to our next topic, which
00:17:51 --> 00:17:56 is stats. The statistics. I'm going to just give
00:17:56 --> 00:18:00 you a couple of guesses, but not many. Am I guessing
00:18:00 --> 00:18:03 just one, or how many stats did you have? I had
00:18:03 --> 00:18:07 four. Four? I had a secret fourth stat. I only
00:18:07 --> 00:18:09 wrote down three things, so I'm going to think
00:18:09 --> 00:18:12 of some on the fly. The first one I have is pedestrian
00:18:12 --> 00:18:17 pancakes or almost. Yes. Pedestrian pancakes
00:18:17 --> 00:18:22 is correct. How many people did I run over in
00:18:22 --> 00:18:25 my car, Kathy? I feel like there wasn't that
00:18:25 --> 00:18:29 many. Probably like one per part. Five? Three.
00:18:29 --> 00:18:35 Okay. Not bad. Could have gone a lot worse. There
00:18:35 --> 00:18:38 is the corkscrew lady. There is another one who
00:18:38 --> 00:18:43 grunted. It's one of my favorite moments in this
00:18:43 --> 00:18:49 game. Forever known as the corkscrew lady. There's
00:18:49 --> 00:18:52 three more. I cared a hazard, I guess. I think,
00:18:52 --> 00:18:56 how many cigarettes are cigars smoked? Yes. This
00:18:56 --> 00:18:59 is my favorite thing to track. Yes. It's probably
00:18:59 --> 00:19:01 going to be in every game. I love track. I'm
00:19:01 --> 00:19:04 going to tell you, I just lumped cigars in this
00:19:04 --> 00:19:07 time. Okay. And this is for even... Background
00:19:07 --> 00:19:10 characters or main characters only? Anytime I
00:19:10 --> 00:19:13 saw anyone smoking a cigarette. Okay. I think
00:19:13 --> 00:19:16 there's quite a lot. But I don't want to say
00:19:16 --> 00:19:18 like 20 because I feel like that's too much.
00:19:18 --> 00:19:20 But then I shouldn't second guess. It was either
00:19:20 --> 00:19:28 12 or 20. So I'm going to go 20. 51. This is
00:19:28 --> 00:19:31 the bird thing again. Well, hey, you're doing
00:19:31 --> 00:19:35 good with the categories so far. Want to guess?
00:19:35 --> 00:19:40 Okay, this is where it goes downhill. And this
00:19:40 --> 00:19:43 may be subjective, but how many insults were
00:19:43 --> 00:19:51 thrown? No. All right. I'm going to reveal one,
00:19:51 --> 00:19:54 and then you can guess on the last one. Okay,
00:19:54 --> 00:19:58 what is it? Ratteo appearances. How many rats
00:19:58 --> 00:20:02 were there in the game? I think two, right? No.
00:20:05 --> 00:20:09 Kathy, we walked through a sewer. The look you
00:20:09 --> 00:20:14 just gave me. I forgot about that. I'll give
00:20:14 --> 00:20:17 you one more guess. Two doesn't count. Okay,
00:20:17 --> 00:20:23 eight? Fifteen. Fifteen rats. How? There was
00:20:23 --> 00:20:25 quite a few rats in the sewer and also in the
00:20:25 --> 00:20:29 prison. Which I don't know why that's funny,
00:20:29 --> 00:20:34 what it is. I forgot about prison rats. Alright,
00:20:34 --> 00:20:38 there's one more stat. Is it a person, place,
00:20:38 --> 00:20:41 thing, or phrase? Thing. Give me another hint.
00:20:42 --> 00:20:46 Cold. Something in the fridge, then? Or how many
00:20:46 --> 00:20:51 dead bodies, morgues? Oh! Morgues? No, you just
00:20:51 --> 00:20:54 really escalated that from items in the fridge.
00:20:55 --> 00:21:00 I don't know. My brain's not working. Okay. Snowflakes.
00:21:01 --> 00:21:05 Like drugs or like actual snowflakes? Actual
00:21:05 --> 00:21:09 snowflakes. Are you counting actual snowflakes,
00:21:09 --> 00:21:13 Leah? I did not count snowflakes, but I did count
00:21:13 --> 00:21:16 birds again. No. Are you kidding me? You counted
00:21:16 --> 00:21:22 birds? I did. What? I counted the birds again,
00:21:22 --> 00:21:24 including implied birds, which is when I saw
00:21:24 --> 00:21:27 a bird's shadow. This is why you don't have time
00:21:27 --> 00:21:29 to do editing, Leah, when you're counting freaking
00:21:29 --> 00:21:34 birds. What? I don't think there's going to be
00:21:34 --> 00:21:38 as many as Detroit Become Human, but there has
00:21:38 --> 00:21:42 to be a significant amount. I want to say 100.
00:21:42 --> 00:21:45 I have no clue if that's too much or too little.
00:21:46 --> 00:21:56 Let's do 81. 100 and 92. What? Where were these
00:21:56 --> 00:22:01 birds? In the sky. I mean, like, yeah. On telephone
00:22:01 --> 00:22:09 wires. On buildings. Casting shadows. I'm, like,
00:22:09 --> 00:22:12 speechless that you did birds again, but also
00:22:12 --> 00:22:16 that there was nearly 200 birds. Hey, I really
00:22:16 --> 00:22:18 thought that you were going to yell at me for
00:22:18 --> 00:22:22 thinking I counted snowflakes. I feel like snowflakes
00:22:22 --> 00:22:26 is worse than birds. It is. There's no way I
00:22:26 --> 00:22:28 would do that to myself. The birds was bad enough.
00:22:30 --> 00:22:32 Well, anyway, that was our last topic. You got
00:22:32 --> 00:22:36 anything else you want to say? No, that's it.
00:22:36 --> 00:22:40 I'm excited to move on from Mafia. Are you excited
00:22:40 --> 00:22:43 when you realize it's Horror Month? No. I don't
00:22:43 --> 00:22:45 know. I'll let you know at the end of the Horror
00:22:45 --> 00:22:50 Month. Remind me if I like Mafia 2 more or our
00:22:50 --> 00:22:55 horror game. Okay. Next week will be a new game.
00:22:55 --> 00:22:57 It'll be the start of Horror Month. I'm ready.
00:22:57 --> 00:23:02 Are you? No. I don't know, but we're, I saw something
00:23:02 --> 00:23:05 about, was it September, October, November? I
00:23:05 --> 00:23:09 think there's like 16 weeks of Fridays left until
00:23:09 --> 00:23:19 Christmas. 15. Oh, wow. So sarcastic. Wow, Leah.
00:23:21 --> 00:23:24 Sorry. I just wasn't expecting that to be the
00:23:24 --> 00:23:27 fact that you said. I'm probably not even counting
00:23:27 --> 00:23:33 it correctly, but. um anyway my dog is all over
00:23:33 --> 00:23:35 everything so i think we have to go but anyway
