Hello everyone and welcome to the concession stand here on the KB radio network I am your host Kevin Reed and this is the review of it welcome to dairy episode 6 which is currently on hbo and hbo max for your viewing pleasure this is the television show that serves as a prequel to stephen king's novel of the same name as well as the tv miniseries that came out in the 90s i think and uh recent films that came out just what about five ten years ago something like that i don't know time gets away from but this is the prequel series that was supposed to exploit the origins of Pennywise the Clown. Not so much the entity, not so much it, because we know what that is. It's an alien. It's some type of entity from space that invaded Derry thousands of years ago. But this will explore why we get the form of this clown, this dancing clown that terrorized the children in this town. And five episodes in, I'm so invested into this story. I'm enjoying the slow build to all of the questions, the answers to all of the questions that we may have had entering this show. And I say slow build, but it's at a real good tone. I mean, we we just hit episode six and I think we are we're at a breakneck speed as far as the storytelling, in my humble opinion, because. I'm getting a lot of backstory. I'm also getting a lot of connections to the overall Stephen King universe, if you will. We're getting references to a lot of his works. Shawshank Redemption, The Shining, and so on and so forth. I really like that element of it. If you're a Stephen King fan, you would enjoy all of the little Easter eggs and references. but if you are a fan of it just it as a whole i think this is it for you our episode six we left off in episode five uh we finally got the reveal of pennywise we've been waiting and we finally got him in the mid-season uh bill scars guard returning as pennywise the clown and it was a nice episode that episode in the sewers with the encounter with the soldiers being uh decimated and well not that a few of them got got the business uh leroy inadvertently killed his best friend well you know before he could kill his own child uh just so much so much happened in five so where would we go from here well this episode starts in black and white and we go back we go back to 1935 and we're at jupiter hill at At the insane asylum where this young girl named Mabel, I think her name was, she's woken up by this nurse in the middle of the night. And she's taken down to the basement, into this boiler room, and we see a floating red balloon. And that floating red balloon is grabbed by Pennywise. And immediately you're like, uh-oh, you know, who's this little girl now? Now let me... my first thought was that that was the madeline stowe character the little girl i didn't realize i didn't put two and two together and get the reveal that we've got later on i'm gonna get to but i'm like okay they're setting up something here that's going to play big dividends to the current storyline that we're going through in 1962 and so we get that a little cold open to the episode then we jump back to 1962 where we find will being yelled at by leroy his father for being in the sewers you know why are you why were you there almost killed you i end up i had to kill my friend you know i shot him i killed him because you because of you and i get it he had every right to be mad you know because the last thing you would think that your son, that your child, will be in this sewer. you know while you're hunting down this this entity and he's already putting his mind that you know whatever isn't supposed to be down there to kill it so he goes down there and he knows that his son is not supposed to be down there so there you have that and he ended up killing his friend instead so now he's mad and charlotte the mother she tries to intervene um but leroy he's he's he's at a 10 actually he's at 11 or 12 at this point because he's hot he's mad because it's not only what happened but what could have happened that was a no-win scenario either his friend died which he did or the alternative was his son died by his hand so it was a lose-lose for him so yeah he is he is infuriated at this point and so his son tries to leave room uh will tries to leave out and leroy wasn't having it he tells his dad that his friends need him and that he wouldn't let his friends die and Unlike... leroy out he went out of character he slaps will in the face and this was a great great scene uh not because boy got slapped but this was a great acting scene by everybody in here you know uh uh taylor page who plays charlotte uh uh javon uh adibo adipo who plays leroy and blake james who will will did phenomenal in this scene You know, I love the response, the reaction to the slap. You know, it wasn't like, oh, my God, you just slapped me. No, it was he cried. You know, he did what a child would do. He was hurt, but he wasn't. It wasn't a hurt like the slap hurt, which I'm pretty sure it did because he slapped him to the ground. But he was more hurt by the fact that his dad hit him. And that was more painful than the actual slap. And you can see that on his face. It wasn't the slap itself. It was the act. And that's what I loved about that scene and how they emoted that through their emotions. And the response from Leroy once he did it, right after he did it, and that little look, he's still mad, but he knows that he messed up and he didn't react, but he reacted. You get what I'm saying? You have to see it. And if you saw it, you know what I'm saying. It's a... A real moment. A real moment. And so that leads to Will leaving out the house, running out the house, and grabbing his bike and leaving, you know. And so we go downtown where we see that Hank is on a lot of wanted posters. People are posting up these posters for Hank who had escaped the bus as we saw in Episode 5 with the help of Madeline Stokes' character. And now, now everybody's on the hunt. They're on a hunt for it. So, uh, Ronnie, Ronnie, uh, and, and Lily, they're the game, the losers. They're in their little spot. And Lily is showing off the dagger that saved her in the sewer that, uh, uh, Tanya had left behind. And she's running down that the story that, uh, that this dagger scared him it scared him he didn't he ran off after he looked at it and it lit up when he was around you know so she she gets the idea that yes we can defeat him with this this can help us beat him but ronnie isn't having it ronnie ronnie at this point she's she's to a wicks in because now her dad is on being hunted she know that it isn't like he's going to get recaptured They're going to kill him. And she knows this at this point. So now she she doesn't care. She doesn't care about this entity. It the clown, the ghost divisions. She doesn't care. You know, she's ready to go. So her and Lily have a nice back and forth. But that wasn't so nice to the point that Ronnie calls her crazy. And Lily wasn't Lily. The young actress who plays her. uh clara stack i think that's the young actress who plays lily nice more because she you know because she's been putting this asylum you know she's been called crazy and that's like a trigger for her and she grabs the deck she just tightens her grip on the dagger like she's she's gonna go after ronnie for coughing to that because that's a trigger for her and it ultimately she doesn't do anything to her but this ultimately leads to Ronnie running off and will goes behind her to try to calm her down so to speak and so um Will and Ronnie, they have a moment. They're talking and, you know, he's trying to convince her that, you know, we can help. We can help. We can fight this together and so on and so forth. And they're about to have this moment. And for the first time, I felt so awkward. I feel so because these little kids, you know, like they having this this passionate moment where they're about to kiss. and it's like... wait, they're really going to do this? I don't want to see this. And right before they kiss, Charlotte pulls up and tells them to get in the car. So they get in the car. They go to the black spot, which is the little club that the black soldiers have created, that they can have their own little spot, you know. And who's hiding out in there? None other than Hank. And there's a nice, sweet moment with Hank. and Ronnie reuniting. And it was a beautiful moment. All the while, we have Dick, who is, you know, we left him last when he was coming out of the sewers. His box has been unlocked. Now he's having these visions of dead people. He's the sixth sense, if you will. And he's trying to drink them away. You know, he got up. That's the only way to combat it in his. mind you know he he has to drink and he doesn't want no part of the hank thing and all this here he he's done he doesn't want anything else to do with this search you know he's pretty much done because he feels that this is a lost cause with this because it has pretty much damaged him you know it allowed the box to be opened in his mind you know now he he's kind of his power is out of control and now he wants to drink it away so we have that to deal with when it comes to dick they're probably the one individual that can combat uh uh it pennywise that is so we leave off um we pop in on march she's in the little clubhouse area trying uh about to change out her bandage on her eye She can't do it by herself. And Rich comes in and they have a nice little scene as well. You know, he offers to help her. He knows how to change bandages and this, that, and the third. And we get our first look at the wounded eye that was gross. But Rich was all right with it. You know, Rich is so smitten by Marge. But, you know, I'm confused. Now, all this stuff that happened to Marge, we never saw her parents. And her parents is nowhere in the discussion. And I thought about this when we got later on in the episode when they were all at the black spot. These kids were at the black spot. And I'm like, where is Marge's parents? Because nobody is checking for their children now. Now, I know the 60s were a different time, you know. it was more trusting back then than it is now but now no that wouldn't happen man we we got trackers and uh it's every day those are our children their phones and all this stuff we make sure we know where they at when they get there and all this here and how long they were there and so it's a different time so i'm gonna excuse it but it's kind of odd that the girl almost took her eye out and you've never seen her parents at no point throughout the show but that may change later on down the line we'll see but they change out the bandage and um we get our first little glimpse of of march starting to turn a corner with rich like okay maybe maybe i do uh like him you know the way he likes me uh but i thought that was cute that was a cute little moment um we go back to dick dick uh he he is just drowning himself in liquor man because it this is just i don't know i don't know how to describe it because i don't have the shine so but it is something that is weighing on him hard that he has to go through this uh he got new orders from shaw you know who's still on the hunt for the pillars he he can care less what happened to him he's on the hunt He don't care about the dead soldiers And all this here So Dixie's one of the soldiers In the room They don't come walk in the room after uh leroy comes and brings him the orders and it's like man so this is what he's seeing i can understand why he's drinking if he's seeing this all the time yeah that would drive you crazy now this was the scene where i kind of got mad at leroy i understand where he's at i understand duty and all that but sometimes sometimes it doesn't hurt to have just a smidge of empathy just a smidge the same thing like with his son and now we go over here to dick dick is explaining to him about his powers about why this is a bad thing that the box you know that he has this box his grandmother taught him this trick to keep those things in his box so he can function otherwise he will go insane and so he's experience Explaining that he's really no good to them, you know, in this state. And Leroy, it was like in one ear, out the other. He didn't care. You have a duty. You're a soldier. You got to do this and do that. It's like, come on, man. Put down, put down the uniform for a second and be a normal human being. And show some empathy for this guy. I mean, I understand you want to hunt for this thing. and it is an important thing but can i take a breath please and even more so later on the scene i'm gonna get to with him and his wife it was worse with that and so he is so blinded by his duty that he doesn't see the uh the forest for the trees if you will matter of fact let's get to that scene and so he uh charlotte she confronts lee and tells her what happened you know because he Jax wears Will. And she's like, oh, he's with his friends or whatever. And they talk about Hank. And she tells him, she up front tells him like, yeah, Hank, Hank is in the black spot. I put him there. I'm the one that put him there. And I'm going to drive him out of town. And after I drive him out of town, me and Will, we're going back to Shreveport. And so he's like, well. We need to straighten this out and all this here. And she's like, yeah, with your son. You need to straighten that out. And he's like, man, I'm doing everything I can to protect this country. I'm like, what? What about your family? You need to protect. That's your priority. That's I don't care what your job is, what your duty is. Your number one job is to protect your family. And that's first and foremost. After that, Dan, Dan, Dan, the dude. But he. he is lost he's so locked in on his job and that is is causing a wedge between him and his family and so now now you have that brendan you have that brewing with the uh the possibility of them leaving dairy which we know that's not going to happen but that's that's on the table um lily it's uh she's freaking out She's still having visions of what happened to her in the sewer. She's sitting in class. And while she's in class, she opens up her desk and she see the mango pickle monster of her dad. And she freaks out in the class and she leaves. Elsewhere, we have Rich and Marge. They're eating lunch and they're talking. Then you have the what they call that group, the girls that come on that little clique. They come over and talk to Marge like, oh, you've been avoiding us and whatever, whatever, whatever. And come eat lunch with us. And she's like, no. Or do you want to stay here with the freaks, with the rest of the freaks? And so she looks over at Rick. And this is after Rick, say Rick, Rich. Rich gave her an eye patch, you know, as a gesture, a sweet little gesture. And she was like, oh, I always wanted to be a pirate. Cute little thing. And. Once again, that little I feel awkward saying it, but that little love is blossoming between these kids. And so you had that and then the little group come over there and talk about Rich in front of his face and all this. And this causes her to get up and rip off the eye patch and say, I'm a freak too. It shows the eye and one of the girls and the puking. she's embarrassed by it so you know now they're gonna be aiming to get back at march now and all this here so uh that was a cool little scene to kind of get quote unquote revenge on them So we fast forward and we get Lily. Lily, after leaving school, she goes to Ingrid. That's Margaret Stowe's character. She goes to Ingrid's house to talk to her. And so she opens the door. The door is open. Doesn't see anybody. She goes upstairs and she finds this photo album. She goes start flipping through the pictures and suddenly we see this guy. you know and just dressed as normal but they're at a carnival and so as she she's looking at the picture and she that he looks familiar he looks real familiar and as she's as uh ingrid comes in and she's looking around and uh or did she see the clown picture at that oh she did see a clown picture but it wasn't like full pennywise looking at that point he just looked like a regular clown at a circus. And she's starting to put it together. Ingrid comes in and then it dawns on her. She sees the costume that Ingrid wears and she sees another photo and she's like, that's him. That's Pennywise. And Ingrid is like, you saw him. And at that moment, it immediately clicked. I'm like, she's the girl. She's Pennywise's daughter. And if you remember, she is the. older woman in it chapter two that attacked uh what's her name oh man uh jessica chaskang's character what's her name but anyway attacks her in it that's who that was it's the same girl because she talked about her dad and you know he was pennywise the dancing clown and all this that's the same character and so she tells the story about her dad and uh Runs the story about when she was a nurse there at Jupiter Hill. And pretty much replays the opening scene to this episode. And she basically brought the girl down there to feed. To be fed, to pity wise. Unknowingly. She didn't know at that time. But she knew that was her dad. She knew that that was her dad. And he reveals himself to her. And we find out that not only... is Pennywise her dad, but she's been running around town in that clown costume. So the picture that we saw in the cemetery of the clown with the weird-shaped hair, that was her. That wasn't Pennywise, that was her. The clown that was standing outside of Will's window that time he got scared, that was her. So she's been peeking in on the children in hopes that... Pennywise would show up going after the children because she wants to see her father. She wants her father back. And so I thought that was cool. And it really answered the question to why that picture, when those kids took the picture in episode three, I think that was, they can, the adults couldn't see the other pictures, but they saw the picture of the clown, but it was, you know, from a distance and it was blurry and all this here. result. they couldn't really make it out but they can see you know and like why could they see that one the reason was because that wasn't the entity that was an actual person and it was ingrid and so that question got answered and thankfully so thankfully so because i have been secretly wondering why that picture was visible to the adults and not any other picture and so uh we go back to the black spot Now we have Ronnie. She refused to leave her father's side and go back to the sewers. Will, he won't give up trying to convince her otherwise to come and help us because the only way this will work if we were together. So Will talks to Hank, you know, try to convince him that way. And Hank is like, no, she's not leaving. You know. I'm not going to allow her to leave, but I understand. You care for my daughter. And I thought that was a cool scene also, you know, as a father. As a father of a girl, of two girls, in fact. I get that scene. I get it 100%. Yeah, I get you care for her. I can see it in your eyes. I can hear it in your voice. But she's not going. No, she's not going. I appreciated it so much. So at the same time, we have Chief Bowers, who just got fired. He's telling the group of Klansmen or whatever, he's got a tip where Hank is. Because they've scoured the whole city. They went through the sewers. They can't find him. And he knows where he is. But he can't do anything about it because he was just fired. And so now the troops are rallied to go and invade Black Spot. Now, at Black Spot, another awkward moment where the troops will... not will uh rich and uh march they go to the to the counter to the little bar to get a coke they just wanted a coke and the bartender fixed them a coke and they take a sip of it it is like wait this isn't this this tastes funny this is funny tasting coke like oh that's the military coke you know what you tasted is freedom and i'm like y'all really gave these children liquor. Y'all gain these jewels. military coke and later on march had a great line while she's obviously getting drunk off of this she's like oh i love military coke i'm like man y'all really doing this to these children come on man well i guess it can't be worse than eating them alive like they do on this show but uh yeah this is this is crazy man we got rich playing the drums in the band and everything they just didn't care They didn't care that these kids are running around this nightclub ballroom, man. It's crazy to me. It's just odd, man. I was born in the wrong time. I should have been born 20 years earlier. And I probably would have had the time of my life back then. But while Rich is playing the drums, Marge is looking. And you can see the glimmer in her eye as she falls in love with Rich at that moment. hearing him play the drums with that band and so everybody's dancing and having fun but uh we all know that good times eventually come to an end in the last scene of this episode we see the white mob masked up uh arrive at the black spot with their weapons drawn and the episode goes to black this this was this was not a Peace. heightened episode or a super exciting action-filled episode gory episode or anything like that that we've experienced previously this season but i think as far as story driven this was one of the best episodes i liked that we pushed the story along without having any gore or much anarchy going on you know this because the anarchy is definitely about to happen this was a breather episode that we needed to take after what we experienced last week in the sewers and what we're going to experience next week what goes down in the black spot if you don't know the story i'm not going to spoil it here but the black spot it goes down It goes down. We're in for a treat next week. If you are bored by just talking dialogue, nothing really happening this week, be patient. It's going to go down next week. But I did like this episode. We had some questions that got answered and we have a few that were raised. So it is keeping is definitely keeping you engaged in. uh excited and anticipating what's to come next i would like to know what do you think of episode six of it welcome to dairy on hbo are you liking it are you still engaged in this show or are you bored with it wishing that there was more pennywise terrorizing children i would love to know your thoughts email the show kbradiopodcast at gmail.com You can also search for the show on all social media platforms.

I'm enjoying the slow build to all of the questions, the answers to all of the questions that we may have had entering this show. And I say slow build, but it's at a real good tone.

Now let me... my first thought was that that was the madeline stowe character the little girl i didn't realize i didn't put two and two together and get the reveal that we've got later on i'm gonna get to but i'm like okay they're setting up something here that's going to play big dividends to the current storyline that we're going through in 1962 and so we get that a little cold open to the episode then we jump back to 1962 where we find will being yelled at by leroy his father for being in the sewers you know why are you why were you there almost killed you i end up i had to kill my friend you know i shot him i killed him because you because of you and i get it he had every right to be mad you know because the last thing you would think that your son, that your child, will be in this sewer. you know while you're hunting down this this entity and he's already putting his mind that you know whatever isn't supposed to be down there to kill it so he goes down there and he knows that his son is not supposed to be down there so there you have that and he ended up killing his friend instead so now he's mad and charlotte the mother she tries to intervene um but leroy he's he's he's at a 10 actually he's at 11 or 12 at this point because he's hot he's mad because it's not only what happened but what could have happened that was a no-win scenario either his friend died which he did or the alternative was his son died by his hand so it was a lose-lose for him so yeah he is he is infuriated at this point and so his son tries to leave room uh will tries to leave out and leroy wasn't having it he tells his dad that his friends need him and that he wouldn't let his friends die and Unlike... leroy out he went out of character he slaps will in the face and this was a great great scene uh not because boy got slapped but this was a great acting scene by everybody in here you know uh uh taylor page who plays charlotte uh uh javon uh adibo adipo who plays leroy and blake james who will will did phenomenal in this scene You know, I love the response, the reaction to the slap. You know, it wasn't like, oh, my God, you just slapped me. No, it was he cried. You know, he did what a child would do. He was hurt, but he wasn't. It wasn't a hurt like the slap hurt, which I'm pretty sure it did because he slapped him to the ground. But he was more hurt by the fact that his dad hit him.

They're on a hunt for it. So, uh, Ronnie, Ronnie, uh, and, and Lily, they're the game, the losers. They're in their little spot. And Lily is showing off the dagger that saved her in the sewer that, uh, uh, Tanya had left behind.

So her and Lily have a nice back and forth. But that wasn't so nice to the point that Ronnie calls her crazy. And Lily wasn't Lily. The young actress who plays her. uh clara stack i think that's the young actress who plays lily nice more because she you know because she's been putting this asylum you know she's been called crazy and that's like a trigger for her and she grabs the deck she just tightens her grip on the dagger like she's she's gonna go after ronnie for coughing to that because that's a trigger for her and it ultimately she doesn't do anything to her but this ultimately leads to Ronnie running off and will goes behind her to try to calm her down so to speak and so um Will and Ronnie, they have a moment. They're talking and, you know, he's trying to convince her that, you know, we can help. We can help. We can fight this together and so on and so forth. And they're about to have this moment.

And there's a nice, sweet moment with Hank. and Ronnie reuniting. And it was a beautiful moment. All the while, we have Dick, who is, you know, we left him last when he was coming out of the sewers. His box has been unlocked. Now he's having these visions of dead people. He's the sixth sense, if you will. And he's trying to drink them away. You know, he got up. That's the only way to combat it in his. mind you know he he has to drink and he doesn't want no part of the hank thing and all this here he he's done he doesn't want anything else to do with this search you know he's pretty much done because he feels that this is a lost cause with this because it has pretty much damaged him you know it allowed the box to be opened in his mind you know now he he's kind of his power is out of control and now he wants to drink it away so we have that to deal with when it comes to dick they're probably the one individual that can combat uh uh it pennywise that is so we leave off um we pop in on march she's in the little clubhouse area trying uh about to change out her bandage on her eye She can't do it by herself. And Rich comes in and they have a nice little scene as well. You know, he offers to help her. He knows how to change bandages and this, that, and the third. And we get our first look at the wounded eye that was gross. But Rich was all right with it. You know, Rich is so smitten by Marge. But, you know, I'm confused. Now, all this stuff that happened to Marge, we never saw her parents. And her parents is nowhere in the discussion. And I thought about this when we got later on in the episode when they were all at the black spot. These kids were at the black spot. And I'm like, where is Marge's parents? Because nobody is checking for their children now. Now, I know the 60s were a different time, you know. it was more trusting back then than it is now but now no that wouldn't happen man we we got trackers and uh it's every day those are our children their phones and all this stuff we make sure we know where they at when they get there and all this here and how long they were there and so it's a different time so i'm gonna excuse it but it's kind of odd that the girl almost took her eye out and you've never seen her parents at no point throughout the show but that may change later on down the line we'll see but they change out the bandage and um we get our first little glimpse of of march starting to turn a corner with rich like okay maybe maybe i do uh like him you know the way he likes me uh but i thought that was cute that was a cute little moment um we go back to dick dick uh he he is just drowning himself in liquor man because it this is just i don't know i don't know how to describe it because i don't have the shine so but it is something that is weighing on him hard that he has to go through this uh he got new orders from shaw you know who's still on the hunt for the pillars he he can care less what happened to him he's on the hunt He don't care about the dead soldiers And all this here So Dixie's one of the soldiers In the room They don't come walk in the room after uh leroy comes and brings him the orders and it's like man so this is what he's seeing i can understand why he's drinking if he's seeing this all the time yeah that would drive you crazy now this was the scene where i kind of got mad at leroy i understand where he's at i understand duty and all that but sometimes sometimes it doesn't hurt to have just a smidge of empathy just a smidge the same thing like with his son and now we go over here to dick dick is explaining to him about his powers about why this is a bad thing that the box you know that he has this box his grandmother taught him this trick to keep those things in his box so he can function otherwise he will go insane and so he's experience Explaining that he's really no good to them, you know, in this state. And Leroy, it was like in one ear, out the other. He didn't care. You have a duty. You're a soldier. You got to do this and do that. It's like, come on, man. Put down, put down the uniform for a second and be a normal human being. And show some empathy for this guy. I mean, I understand you want to hunt for this thing. and it is an important thing but can i take a breath please and even more so later on the scene i'm gonna get to with him and his wife it was worse with that and so he is so blinded by his duty that he doesn't see the uh the forest for the trees if you will matter of fact let's get to that scene and so he uh charlotte she confronts lee and tells her what happened you know because he Jax wears Will. And she's like, oh, he's with his friends or whatever. And they talk about Hank. And she tells him, she up front tells him like, yeah, Hank, Hank is in the black spot. I put him there. I'm the one that put him there. And I'm going to drive him out of town. And after I drive him out of town, me and Will, we're going back to Shreveport. And so he's like, well. We need to straighten this out and all this here. And she's like, yeah, with your son. You need to straighten that out. And he's like, man, I'm doing everything I can to protect this country. I'm like, what? What about your family? You need to protect. That's your priority. That's I don't care what your job is, what your duty is. Your number one job is to protect your family. And that's first and foremost. After that, Dan, Dan, Dan, the dude. But he. he is lost he's so locked in on his job and that is is causing a wedge between him and his family and so now now you have that brendan you have that brewing with the uh the possibility of them leaving dairy which we know that's not going to happen but that's that's on the table um lily it's uh she's freaking out She's still having visions of what happened to her in the sewer. She's sitting in class. And while she's in class, she opens up her desk and she see the mango pickle monster of her dad. And she freaks out in the class and she leaves. Elsewhere, we have Rich and Marge. They're eating lunch and they're talking. Then you have the what they call that group, the girls that come on that little clique. They come over and talk to Marge like, oh, you've been avoiding us and whatever, whatever, whatever. And come eat lunch with us. And she's like, no. Or do you want to stay here with the freaks, with the rest of the freaks? And so she looks over at Rick. And this is after Rick, say Rick, Rich. Rich gave her an eye patch, you know, as a gesture, a sweet little gesture. And she was like, oh, I always wanted to be a pirate. Cute little thing. And. Once again, that little I feel awkward saying it, but that little love is blossoming between these kids. And so you had that and then the little group come over there and talk about Rich in front of his face and all this. And this causes her to get up and rip off the eye patch and say, I'm a freak too. It shows the eye and one of the girls and the puking. she's embarrassed by it so you know now they're gonna be aiming to get back at march now and all this here so uh that was a cool little scene to kind of get quote unquote revenge on them So we fast forward and we get Lily. Lily, after leaving school, she goes to Ingrid. That's Margaret Stowe's character. She goes to Ingrid's house to talk to her. And so she opens the door. The door is open. Doesn't see anybody. She goes upstairs and she finds this photo album. She goes start flipping through the pictures and suddenly we see this guy. you know and just dressed as normal but they're at a carnival and so as she she's looking at the picture and she that he looks familiar he looks real familiar and as she's as uh ingrid comes in and she's looking around and uh or did she see the clown picture at that oh she did see a clown picture but it wasn't like full pennywise looking at that point he just looked like a regular clown at a circus. And she's starting to put it together. Ingrid comes in and then it dawns on her. She sees the costume that Ingrid wears and she sees another photo and she's like, that's him. That's Pennywise. And Ingrid is like, you saw him. And at that moment, it immediately clicked. I'm like, she's the girl. She's Pennywise's daughter. And if you remember, she is the. older woman in it chapter two that attacked uh what's her name oh man uh jessica chaskang's character what's her name but anyway attacks her in it that's who that was it's the same girl because she talked about her dad and you know he was pennywise the dancing clown and all this that's the same character and so she tells the story about her dad and uh Runs the story about when she was a nurse there at Jupiter Hill. And pretty much replays the opening scene to this episode. And she basically brought the girl down there to feed. To be fed, to pity wise. Unknowingly. She didn't know at that time. But she knew that was her dad. She knew that that was her dad. And he reveals himself to her. And we find out that not only... is Pennywise her dad, but she's been running around town in that clown costume. So the picture that we saw in the cemetery of the clown with the weird-shaped hair, that was her. That wasn't Pennywise, that was her. The clown that was standing outside of Will's window that time he got scared, that was her. So she's been peeking in on the children in hopes that... Pennywise would show up going after the children because she wants to see her father. She wants her father back. And so I thought that was cool. And it really answered the question to why that picture, when those kids took the picture in episode three, I think that was, they can, the adults couldn't see the other pictures, but they saw the picture of the clown, but it was, you know, from a distance and it was blurry and all this here. result. they couldn't really make it out but they can see you know and like why could they see that one the reason was because that wasn't the entity that was an actual person and it was ingrid and so that question got answered and thankfully so thankfully so because i have been secretly wondering why that picture was visible to the adults and not any other picture and so uh we go back to the black spot Now we have Ronnie. She refused to leave her father's side and go back to the sewers. Will, he won't give up trying to convince her otherwise to come and help us because the only way this will work if we were together. So Will talks to Hank, you know, try to convince him that way. And Hank is like, no, she's not leaving. You know. I'm not going to allow her to leave, but I understand. You care for my daughter. And I thought that was a cool scene also, you know, as a father. As a father of a girl, of two girls, in fact. I get that scene. I get it 100%. Yeah, I get you care for her. I can see it in your eyes. I can hear it in your voice. But she's not going. No, she's not going. I appreciated it so much. So at the same time, we have Chief Bowers, who just got fired. He's telling the group of Klansmen or whatever, he's got a tip where Hank is. Because they've scoured the whole city. They went through the sewers. They can't find him. And he knows where he is. But he can't do anything about it because he was just fired. And so now the troops are rallied to go and invade Black Spot. Now, at Black Spot, another awkward moment where the troops will... not will uh rich and uh march they go to the to the counter to the little bar to get a coke they just wanted a coke and the bartender fixed them a coke and they take a sip of it it is like wait this isn't this this tastes funny this is funny tasting coke like oh that's the military coke you know what you tasted is freedom and i'm like y'all really gave these children liquor. Y'all gain these jewels. military coke and later on march had a great line while she's obviously getting drunk off of this she's like oh i love military coke i'm like man y'all really doing this to these children come on man well i guess it can't be worse than eating them alive like they do on this show but uh yeah this is this is crazy man we got rich playing the drums in the band and everything they just didn't care They didn't care that these kids are running around this nightclub ballroom, man. It's crazy to me. It's just odd, man. I was born in the wrong time. I should have been born 20 years earlier. And I probably would have had the time of my life back then. But while Rich is playing the drums, Marge is looking. And you can see the glimmer in her eye as she falls in love with Rich at that moment. hearing him play the drums with that band and so everybody's dancing and having fun but uh we all know that good times eventually come to an end in the last scene of this episode we see the white mob masked up uh arrive at the black spot with their weapons drawn and the episode goes to black this this was this was not a Peace. heightened episode or a super exciting action-filled episode gory episode or anything like that that we've experienced previously this season but i think as far as story driven this was one of the best episodes i liked that we pushed the story along without having any gore or much anarchy going on you know this because the anarchy is definitely about to happen this was a breather episode that we needed to take after what we experienced last week in the sewers and what we're going to experience next week what goes down in the black spot if you don't know the story i'm not going to spoil it here but the black spot it goes down It goes down. We're in for a treat next week. If you are bored by just talking dialogue, nothing really happening this week, be patient. It's going to go down next week. But I did like this episode. We had some questions that got answered and we have a few that were raised. So it is keeping is definitely keeping you engaged in. uh excited and anticipating what's to come next i would like to know what do you think of episode six of it welcome to dairy on hbo are you liking it are you still engaged in this show or are you bored with it wishing that there was more pennywise terrorizing children i would love to know your thoughts email the show kbradiopodcast at gmail.com You can also search for the show on all social media platforms.

Hello everyone and welcome to the concession stand here on the KB radio network I am your host Kevin Reed and this is the review of it welcome to dairy episode 6 which is currently on hbo and hbo max for your viewing pleasure this is the television show that serves as a prequel to stephen king's novel of the same name as well as the tv miniseries that came out in the 90s i think and uh recent films that came out just what about five ten years ago something like that i don't know time gets away from but this is the prequel series that was supposed to exploit the origins of Pennywise the Clown. Not so much the entity, not so much it, because we know what that is. It's an alien. It's some type of entity from space that invaded Derry thousands of years ago. But this will explore why we get the form of this clown, this dancing clown that terrorized the children in this town. And five episodes in, I'm so invested into this story. I'm enjoying the slow build to all of the questions, the answers to all of the questions that we may have had entering this show. And I say slow build, but it's at a real good tone. I mean, we we just hit episode six and I think we are we're at a breakneck speed as far as the storytelling, in my humble opinion, because. I'm getting a lot of backstory. I'm also getting a lot of connections to the overall Stephen King universe, if you will. We're getting references to a lot of his works. Shawshank Redemption, The Shining, and so on and so forth. I really like that element of it. If you're a Stephen King fan, you would enjoy all of the little Easter eggs and references. but if you are a fan of it just it as a whole i think this is it for you our episode six we left off in episode five uh we finally got the reveal of pennywise we've been waiting and we finally got him in the mid-season uh bill scars guard returning as pennywise the clown and it was a nice episode that episode in the sewers with the encounter with the soldiers being uh decimated and well not that a few of them got got the business uh leroy inadvertently killed his best friend well you know before he could kill his own child uh just so much so much happened in five so where would we go from here well this episode starts in black and white and we go back we go back to 1935 and we're at jupiter hill at At the insane asylum where this young girl named Mabel, I think her name was, she's woken up by this nurse in the middle of the night. And she's taken down to the basement, into this boiler room, and we see a floating red balloon. And that floating red balloon is grabbed by Pennywise. And immediately you're like, uh-oh, you know, who's this little girl now? Now let me... my first thought was that that was the madeline stowe character the little girl i didn't realize i didn't put two and two together and get the reveal that we've got later on i'm gonna get to but i'm like okay they're setting up something here that's going to play big dividends to the current storyline that we're going through in 1962 and so we get that a little cold open to the episode then we jump back to 1962 where we find will being yelled at by leroy his father for being in the sewers you know why are you why were you there almost killed you i end up i had to kill my friend you know i shot him i killed him because you because of you and i get it he had every right to be mad you know because the last thing you would think that your son, that your child, will be in this sewer. you know while you're hunting down this this entity and he's already putting his mind that you know whatever isn't supposed to be down there to kill it so he goes down there and he knows that his son is not supposed to be down there so there you have that and he ended up killing his friend instead so now he's mad and charlotte the mother she tries to intervene um but leroy he's he's he's at a 10 actually he's at 11 or 12 at this point because he's hot he's mad because it's not only what happened but what could have happened that was a no-win scenario either his friend died which he did or the alternative was his son died by his hand so it was a lose-lose for him so yeah he is he is infuriated at this point and so his son tries to leave room uh will tries to leave out and leroy wasn't having it he tells his dad that his friends need him and that he wouldn't let his friends die and Unlike... leroy out he went out of character he slaps will in the face and this was a great great scene uh not because boy got slapped but this was a great acting scene by everybody in here you know uh uh taylor page who plays charlotte uh uh javon uh adibo adipo who plays leroy and blake james who will will did phenomenal in this scene You know, I love the response, the reaction to the slap. You know, it wasn't like, oh, my God, you just slapped me. No, it was he cried. You know, he did what a child would do. He was hurt, but he wasn't. It wasn't a hurt like the slap hurt, which I'm pretty sure it did because he slapped him to the ground. But he was more hurt by the fact that his dad hit him. And that was more painful than the actual slap. And you can see that on his face. It wasn't the slap itself. It was the act. And that's what I loved about that scene and how they emoted that through their emotions. And the response from Leroy once he did it, right after he did it, and that little look, he's still mad, but he knows that he messed up and he didn't react, but he reacted. You get what I'm saying? You have to see it. And if you saw it, you know what I'm saying. It's a... A real moment. A real moment. And so that leads to Will leaving out the house, running out the house, and grabbing his bike and leaving, you know. And so we go downtown where we see that Hank is on a lot of wanted posters. People are posting up these posters for Hank who had escaped the bus as we saw in Episode 5 with the help of Madeline Stokes' character. And now, now everybody's on the hunt. They're on a hunt for it. So, uh, Ronnie, Ronnie, uh, and, and Lily, they're the game, the losers. They're in their little spot. And Lily is showing off the dagger that saved her in the sewer that, uh, uh, Tanya had left behind. And she's running down that the story that, uh, that this dagger scared him it scared him he didn't he ran off after he looked at it and it lit up when he was around you know so she she gets the idea that yes we can defeat him with this this can help us beat him but ronnie isn't having it ronnie ronnie at this point she's she's to a wicks in because now her dad is on being hunted she know that it isn't like he's going to get recaptured They're going to kill him. And she knows this at this point. So now she she doesn't care. She doesn't care about this entity. It the clown, the ghost divisions. She doesn't care. You know, she's ready to go. So her and Lily have a nice back and forth. But that wasn't so nice to the point that Ronnie calls her crazy. And Lily wasn't Lily. The young actress who plays her. uh clara stack i think that's the young actress who plays lily nice more because she you know because she's been putting this asylum you know she's been called crazy and that's like a trigger for her and she grabs the deck she just tightens her grip on the dagger like she's she's gonna go after ronnie for coughing to that because that's a trigger for her and it ultimately she doesn't do anything to her but this ultimately leads to Ronnie running off and will goes behind her to try to calm her down so to speak and so um Will and Ronnie, they have a moment. They're talking and, you know, he's trying to convince her that, you know, we can help. We can help. We can fight this together and so on and so forth. And they're about to have this moment. And for the first time, I felt so awkward. I feel so because these little kids, you know, like they having this this passionate moment where they're about to kiss. and it's like... wait, they're really going to do this? I don't want to see this. And right before they kiss, Charlotte pulls up and tells them to get in the car. So they get in the car. They go to the black spot, which is the little club that the black soldiers have created, that they can have their own little spot, you know. And who's hiding out in there? None other than Hank. And there's a nice, sweet moment with Hank. and Ronnie reuniting. And it was a beautiful moment. All the while, we have Dick, who is, you know, we left him last when he was coming out of the sewers. His box has been unlocked. Now he's having these visions of dead people. He's the sixth sense, if you will. And he's trying to drink them away. You know, he got up. That's the only way to combat it in his. mind you know he he has to drink and he doesn't want no part of the hank thing and all this here he he's done he doesn't want anything else to do with this search you know he's pretty much done because he feels that this is a lost cause with this because it has pretty much damaged him you know it allowed the box to be opened in his mind you know now he he's kind of his power is out of control and now he wants to drink it away so we have that to deal with when it comes to dick they're probably the one individual that can combat uh uh it pennywise that is so we leave off um we pop in on march she's in the little clubhouse area trying uh about to change out her bandage on her eye She can't do it by herself. And Rich comes in and they have a nice little scene as well. You know, he offers to help her. He knows how to change bandages and this, that, and the third. And we get our first look at the wounded eye that was gross. But Rich was all right with it. You know, Rich is so smitten by Marge. But, you know, I'm confused.

And Leroy, it was like in one ear, out the other. He didn't care. You have a duty. You're a soldier. You got to do this and do that. It's like, come on, man. Put down, put down the uniform for a second and be a normal human being. And show some empathy for this guy. I mean, I understand you want to hunt for this thing. and it is an important thing but can i take a breath please and even more so later on the scene i'm gonna get to with him and his wife it was worse with that and so he is so blinded by his duty that he doesn't see the uh the forest for the trees if you will matter of fact let's get to that scene and so he uh charlotte she confronts lee and tells her what happened you know because he Jax wears Will. And she's like, oh, he's with his friends or whatever. And they talk about Hank. And she tells him, she up front tells him like, yeah, Hank, Hank is in the black spot. I put him there. I'm the one that put him there. And I'm going to drive him out of town. And after I drive him out of town, me and Will, we're going back to Shreveport. And so he's like, well. We need to straighten this out and all this here. And she's like, yeah, with your son. You need to straighten that out. And he's like, man, I'm doing everything I can to protect this country. I'm like, what? What about your family? You need to protect. That's your priority. That's I don't care what your job is, what your duty is. Your number one job is to protect your family. And that's first and foremost. After that, Dan, Dan, Dan, the dude. But he. he is lost he's so locked in on his job and that is is causing a wedge between him and his family and so now now you have that brendan you have that brewing with the uh the possibility of them leaving dairy which we know that's not going to happen but that's that's on the table um lily it's uh she's freaking out She's still having visions of what happened to her in the sewer.

The clown that was standing outside of Will's window that time he got scared, that was her. So she's been peeking in on the children in hopes that... Pennywise would show up going after the children because she wants to see her father. She wants her father back. And so I thought that was cool. And it really answered the question to why that picture, when those kids took the picture in episode three, I think that was, they can, the adults couldn't see the other pictures, but they saw the picture of the clown, but it was, you know, from a distance and it was blurry and all this here. result. they couldn't really make it out but they can see you know and like why could they see that one the reason was because that wasn't the entity that was an actual person and it was ingrid and so that question got answered and thankfully so thankfully so because i have been secretly wondering why that picture was visible to the adults and not any other picture and so uh we go back to the black spot Now we have Ronnie. She refused to leave her father's side and go back to the sewers. Will, he won't give up trying to convince her otherwise to come and help us because the only way this will work if we were together. So Will talks to Hank, you know, try to convince him that way. And Hank is like, no, she's not leaving. You know. I'm not going to allow her to leave, but I understand. You care for my daughter. And I thought that was a cool scene also, you know, as a father. As a father of a girl, of two girls, in fact. I get that scene. I get it 100%. Yeah, I get you care for her. I can see it in your eyes. I can hear it in your voice. But she's not going. No, she's not going. I appreciated it so much. So at the same time, we have Chief Bowers, who just got fired. He's telling the group of Klansmen or whatever, he's got a tip where Hank is. Because they've scoured the whole city. They went through the sewers. They can't find him. And he knows where he is. But he can't do anything about it because he was just fired. And so now the troops are rallied to go and invade Black Spot. Now, at Black Spot, another awkward moment where the troops will... not will uh rich and uh march they go to the to the counter to the little bar to get a coke they just wanted a coke and the bartender fixed them a coke and they take a sip of it it is like wait this isn't this this tastes funny this is funny tasting coke like oh that's the military coke you know what you tasted is freedom and i'm like y'all really gave these children liquor. Y'all gain these jewels. military coke and later on march had a great line while she's obviously getting drunk off of this she's like oh i love military coke i'm like man y'all really doing this to these children come on man well i guess it can't be worse than eating them alive like they do on this show but uh yeah this is this is crazy man we got rich playing the drums in the band and everything they just didn't care They didn't care that these kids are running around this nightclub ballroom, man. It's crazy to me. It's just odd, man. I was born in the wrong time. I should have been born 20 years earlier. And I probably would have had the time of my life back then. But while Rich is playing the drums, Marge is looking. And you can see the glimmer in her eye as she falls in love with Rich at that moment. hearing him play the drums with that band and so everybody's dancing and having fun but uh we all know that good times eventually come to an end in the last scene of this episode we see the white mob masked up uh arrive at the black spot with their weapons drawn and the episode goes to black this this was this was not a Peace. heightened episode or a super exciting action-filled episode gory episode or anything like that that we've experienced previously this season but i think as far as story driven this was one of the best episodes i liked that we pushed the story along without having any gore or much anarchy going on you know this because the anarchy is definitely about to happen this was a breather episode that we needed to take after what we experienced last week in the sewers and what we're going to experience next week what goes down in the black spot if you don't know the story i'm not going to spoil it here but the black spot it goes down It goes down. We're in for a treat next week. If you are bored by just talking dialogue, nothing really happening this week, be patient. It's going to go down next week. But I did like this episode.

Hello everyone and welcome to the concession stand here on the KB radio network I am your host Kevin Reed and this is the review of it welcome to dairy episode 6 which is currently on hbo and hbo max for your viewing pleasure this is the television show that serves as a prequel to stephen king's novel of the same name as well as the tv miniseries that came out in the 90s i think and uh recent films that came out just what about five ten years ago something like that i don't know time gets away from but this is the prequel series that was supposed to exploit the origins of Pennywise the Clown. Not so much the entity, not so much it, because we know what that is. It's an alien. It's some type of entity from space that invaded Derry thousands of years ago. But this will explore why we get the form of this clown, this dancing clown that terrorized the children in this town. And five episodes in, I'm so invested into this story. I'm enjoying the slow build to all of the questions, the answers to all of the questions that we may have had entering this show. And I say slow build, but it's at a real good tone. I mean, we we just hit episode six and I think we are we're at a breakneck speed as far as the storytelling, in my humble opinion, because. I'm getting a lot of backstory. I'm also getting a lot of connections to the overall Stephen King universe, if you will. We're getting references to a lot of his works. Shawshank Redemption, The Shining, and so on and so forth. I really like that element of it. If you're a Stephen King fan, you would enjoy all of the little Easter eggs and references. but if you are a fan of it just it as a whole i think this is it for you our episode six we left off in episode five uh we finally got the reveal of pennywise we've been waiting and we finally got him in the mid-season uh bill scars guard returning as pennywise the clown and it was a nice episode that episode in the sewers with the encounter with the soldiers being uh decimated and well not that a few of them got got the business uh leroy inadvertently killed his best friend well you know before he could kill his own child uh just so much so much happened in five so where would we go from here well this episode starts in black and white and we go back we go back to 1935 and we're at jupiter hill at At the insane asylum where this young girl named Mabel, I think her name was, she's woken up by this nurse in the middle of the night. And she's taken down to the basement, into this boiler room, and we see a floating red balloon. And that floating red balloon is grabbed by Pennywise. And immediately you're like, uh-oh, you know, who's this little girl now? Now let me... my first thought was that that was the madeline stowe character the little girl i didn't realize i didn't put two and two together and get the reveal that we've got later on i'm gonna get to but i'm like okay they're setting up something here that's going to play big dividends to the current storyline that we're going through in 1962 and so we get that a little cold open to the episode then we jump back to 1962 where we find will being yelled at by leroy his father for being in the sewers you know why are you why were you there almost killed you i end up i had to kill my friend you know i shot him i killed him because you because of you and i get it he had every right to be mad you know because the last thing you would think that your son, that your child, will be in this sewer. you know while you're hunting down this this entity and he's already putting his mind that you know whatever isn't supposed to be down there to kill it so he goes down there and he knows that his son is not supposed to be down there so there you have that and he ended up killing his friend instead so now he's mad and charlotte the mother she tries to intervene um but leroy he's he's he's at a 10 actually he's at 11 or 12 at this point because he's hot he's mad because it's not only what happened but what could have happened that was a no-win scenario either his friend died which he did or the alternative was his son died by his hand so it was a lose-lose for him so yeah he is he is infuriated at this point and so his son tries to leave room uh will tries to leave out and leroy wasn't having it he tells his dad that his friends need him and that he wouldn't let his friends die and Unlike... leroy out he went out of character he slaps will in the face and this was a great great scene uh not because boy got slapped but this was a great acting scene by everybody in here you know uh uh taylor page who plays charlotte uh uh javon uh adibo adipo who plays leroy and blake james who will will did phenomenal in this scene You know, I love the response, the reaction to the slap. You know, it wasn't like, oh, my God, you just slapped me. No, it was he cried. You know, he did what a child would do. He was hurt, but he wasn't. It wasn't a hurt like the slap hurt, which I'm pretty sure it did because he slapped him to the ground. But he was more hurt by the fact that his dad hit him. And that was more painful than the actual slap. And you can see that on his face. It wasn't the slap itself. It was the act. And that's what I loved about that scene and how they emoted that through their emotions. And the response from Leroy once he did it, right after he did it, and that little look, he's still mad, but he knows that he messed up and he didn't react, but he reacted. You get what I'm saying? You have to see it. And if you saw it, you know what I'm saying. It's a... A real moment. A real moment. And so that leads to Will leaving out the house, running out the house, and grabbing his bike and leaving, you know. And so we go downtown where we see that Hank is on a lot of wanted posters. People are posting up these posters for Hank who had escaped the bus as we saw in Episode 5 with the help of Madeline Stokes' character. And now, now everybody's on the hunt. They're on a hunt for it. So, uh, Ronnie, Ronnie, uh, and, and Lily, they're the game, the losers. They're in their little spot. And Lily is showing off the dagger that saved her in the sewer that, uh, uh, Tanya had left behind. And she's running down that the story that, uh, that this dagger scared him it scared him he didn't he ran off after he looked at it and it lit up when he was around you know so she she gets the idea that yes we can defeat him with this this can help us beat him but ronnie isn't having it ronnie ronnie at this point she's she's to a wicks in because now her dad is on being hunted she know that it isn't like he's going to get recaptured They're going to kill him. And she knows this at this point. So now she she doesn't care. She doesn't care about this entity. It the clown, the ghost divisions. She doesn't care. You know, she's ready to go. So her and Lily have a nice back and forth. But that wasn't so nice to the point that Ronnie calls her crazy. And Lily wasn't Lily. The young actress who plays her. uh clara stack i think that's the young actress who plays lily nice more because she you know because she's been putting this asylum you know she's been called crazy and that's like a trigger for her and she grabs the deck she just tightens her grip on the dagger like she's she's gonna go after ronnie for coughing to that because that's a trigger for her and it ultimately she doesn't do anything to her but this ultimately leads to Ronnie running off and will goes behind her to try to calm her down so to speak and so um Will and Ronnie, they have a moment. They're talking and, you know, he's trying to convince her that, you know, we can help. We can help. We can fight this together and so on and so forth. And they're about to have this moment. And for the first time, I felt so awkward. I feel so because these little kids, you know, like they having this this passionate moment where they're about to kiss. and it's like... wait, they're really going to do this? I don't want to see this. And right before they kiss, Charlotte pulls up and tells them to get in the car. So they get in the car. They go to the black spot, which is the little club that the black soldiers have created, that they can have their own little spot, you know. And who's hiding out in there? None other than Hank. And there's a nice, sweet moment with Hank. and Ronnie reuniting. And it was a beautiful moment. All the while, we have Dick, who is, you know, we left him last when he was coming out of the sewers. His box has been unlocked. Now he's having these visions of dead people. He's the sixth sense, if you will. And he's trying to drink them away. You know, he got up. That's the only way to combat it in his. mind you know he he has to drink and he doesn't want no part of the hank thing and all this here he he's done he doesn't want anything else to do with this search you know he's pretty much done because he feels that this is a lost cause with this because it has pretty much damaged him you know it allowed the box to be opened in his mind you know now he he's kind of his power is out of control and now he wants to drink it away so we have that to deal with when it comes to dick they're probably the one individual that can combat uh uh it pennywise that is so we leave off um we pop in on march she's in the little clubhouse area trying uh about to change out her bandage on her eye She can't do it by herself. And Rich comes in and they have a nice little scene as well. You know, he offers to help her. He knows how to change bandages and this, that, and the third. And we get our first look at the wounded eye that was gross. But Rich was all right with it. You know, Rich is so smitten by Marge. But, you know, I'm confused. Now, all this stuff that happened to Marge, we never saw her parents. And her parents is nowhere in the discussion. And I thought about this when we got later on in the episode when they were all at the black spot. These kids were at the black spot. And I'm like, where is Marge's parents? Because nobody is checking for their children now. Now, I know the 60s were a different time, you know. it was more trusting back then than it is now but now no that wouldn't happen man we we got trackers and uh it's every day those are our children their phones and all this stuff we make sure we know where they at when they get there and all this here and how long they were there and so it's a different time so i'm gonna excuse it but it's kind of odd that the girl almost took her eye out and you've never seen her parents at no point throughout the show but that may change later on down the line we'll see but they change out the bandage and um we get our first little glimpse of of march starting to turn a corner with rich like okay maybe maybe i do uh like him you know the way he likes me uh but i thought that was cute that was a cute little moment um we go back to dick dick uh he he is just drowning himself in liquor man because it this is just i don't know i don't know how to describe it because i don't have the shine so but it is something that is weighing on him hard that he has to go through this uh he got new orders from shaw you know who's still on the hunt for the pillars he he can care less what happened to him he's on the hunt He don't care about the dead soldiers And all this here So Dixie's one of the soldiers In the room They don't come walk in the room after uh leroy comes and brings him the orders and it's like man so this is what he's seeing i can understand why he's drinking if he's seeing this all the time yeah that would drive you crazy now this was the scene where i kind of got mad at leroy i understand where he's at i understand duty and all that but sometimes sometimes it doesn't hurt to have just a smidge of empathy just a smidge the same thing like with his son and now we go over here to dick dick is explaining to him about his powers about why this is a bad thing that the box you know that he has this box his grandmother taught him this trick to keep those things in his box so he can function otherwise he will go insane and so he's experience Explaining that he's really no good to them, you know, in this state. And Leroy, it was like in one ear, out the other. He didn't care. You have a duty. You're a soldier. You got to do this and do that. It's like, come on, man. Put down, put down the uniform for a second and be a normal human being. And show some empathy for this guy. I mean, I understand you want to hunt for this thing. and it is an important thing but can i take a breath please and even more so later on the scene i'm gonna get to with him and his wife it was worse with that and so he is so blinded by his duty that he doesn't see the uh the forest for the trees if you will matter of fact let's get to that scene and so he uh charlotte she confronts lee and tells her what happened you know because he Jax wears Will. And she's like, oh, he's with his friends or whatever. And they talk about Hank. And she tells him, she up front tells him like, yeah, Hank, Hank is in the black spot. I put him there. I'm the one that put him there. And I'm going to drive him out of town. And after I drive him out of town, me and Will, we're going back to Shreveport. And so he's like, well. We need to straighten this out and all this here. And she's like, yeah, with your son. You need to straighten that out. And he's like, man, I'm doing everything I can to protect this country. I'm like, what? What about your family? You need to protect. That's your priority. That's I don't care what your job is, what your duty is. Your number one job is to protect your family. And that's first and foremost. After that, Dan, Dan, Dan, the dude. But he. he is lost he's so locked in on his job and that is is causing a wedge between him and his family and so now now you have that brendan you have that brewing with the uh the possibility of them leaving dairy which we know that's not going to happen but that's that's on the table um lily it's uh she's freaking out She's still having visions of what happened to her in the sewer. She's sitting in class. And while she's in class, she opens up her desk and she see the mango pickle monster of her dad. And she freaks out in the class and she leaves. Elsewhere, we have Rich and Marge. They're eating lunch and they're talking. Then you have the what they call that group, the girls that come on that little clique. They come over and talk to Marge like, oh, you've been avoiding us and whatever, whatever, whatever. And come eat lunch with us. And she's like, no. Or do you want to stay here with the freaks, with the rest of the freaks? And so she looks over at Rick. And this is after Rick, say Rick, Rich. Rich gave her an eye patch, you know, as a gesture, a sweet little gesture. And she was like, oh, I always wanted to be a pirate. Cute little thing. And. Once again, that little I feel awkward saying it, but that little love is blossoming between these kids. And so you had that and then the little group come over there and talk about Rich in front of his face and all this. And this causes her to get up and rip off the eye patch and say, I'm a freak too. It shows the eye and one of the girls and the puking. she's embarrassed by it so you know now they're gonna be aiming to get back at march now and all this here so uh that was a cool little scene to kind of get quote unquote revenge on them So we fast forward and we get Lily. Lily, after leaving school, she goes to Ingrid. That's Margaret Stowe's character. She goes to Ingrid's house to talk to her. And so she opens the door. The door is open. Doesn't see anybody. She goes upstairs and she finds this photo album. She goes start flipping through the pictures and suddenly we see this guy. you know and just dressed as normal but they're at a carnival and so as she she's looking at the picture and she that he looks familiar he looks real familiar and as she's as uh ingrid comes in and she's looking around and uh or did she see the clown picture at that oh she did see a clown picture but it wasn't like full pennywise looking at that point he just looked like a regular clown at a circus. And she's starting to put it together. Ingrid comes in and then it dawns on her. She sees the costume that Ingrid wears and she sees another photo and she's like, that's him. That's Pennywise. And Ingrid is like, you saw him. And at that moment, it immediately clicked. I'm like, she's the girl. She's Pennywise's daughter. And if you remember, she is the. older woman in it chapter two that attacked uh what's her name oh man uh jessica chaskang's character what's her name but anyway attacks her in it that's who that was it's the same girl because she talked about her dad and you know he was pennywise the dancing clown and all this that's the same character and so she tells the story about her dad and uh Runs the story about when she was a nurse there at Jupiter Hill. And pretty much replays the opening scene to this episode. And she basically brought the girl down there to feed. To be fed, to pity wise. Unknowingly. She didn't know at that time. But she knew that was her dad. She knew that that was her dad. And he reveals himself to her. And we find out that not only... is Pennywise her dad, but she's been running around town in that clown costume. So the picture that we saw in the cemetery of the clown with the weird-shaped hair, that was her. That wasn't Pennywise, that was her. The clown that was standing outside of Will's window that time he got scared, that was her. So she's been peeking in on the children in hopes that... Pennywise would show up going after the children because she wants to see her father. She wants her father back. And so I thought that was cool. And it really answered the question to why that picture, when those kids took the picture in episode three, I think that was, they can, the adults couldn't see the other pictures, but they saw the picture of the clown, but it was, you know, from a distance and it was blurry and all this here. result. they couldn't really make it out but they can see you know and like why could they see that one the reason was because that wasn't the entity that was an actual person and it was ingrid and so that question got answered and thankfully so thankfully so because i have been secretly wondering why that picture was visible to the adults and not any other picture and so uh we go back to the black spot Now we have Ronnie. She refused to leave her father's side and go back to the sewers. Will, he won't give up trying to convince her otherwise to come and help us because the only way this will work if we were together. So Will talks to Hank, you know, try to convince him that way. And Hank is like, no, she's not leaving. You know. I'm not going to allow her to leave, but I understand. You care for my daughter. And I thought that was a cool scene also, you know, as a father. As a father of a girl, of two girls, in fact. I get that scene. I get it 100%. Yeah, I get you care for her. I can see it in your eyes. I can hear it in your voice. But she's not going. No, she's not going. I appreciated it so much. So at the same time, we have Chief Bowers, who just got fired. He's telling the group of Klansmen or whatever, he's got a tip where Hank is. Because they've scoured the whole city. They went through the sewers. They can't find him. And he knows where he is. But he can't do anything about it because he was just fired. And so now the troops are rallied to go and invade Black Spot. Now, at Black Spot, another awkward moment where the troops will... not will uh rich and uh march they go to the to the counter to the little bar to get a coke they just wanted a coke and the bartender fixed them a coke and they take a sip of it it is like wait this isn't this this tastes funny this is funny tasting coke like oh that's the military coke you know what you tasted is freedom and i'm like y'all really gave these children liquor. Y'all gain these jewels. military coke and later on march had a great line while she's obviously getting drunk off of this she's like oh i love military coke i'm like man y'all really doing this to these children come on man well i guess it can't be worse than eating them alive like they do on this show but uh yeah this is this is crazy man we got rich playing the drums in the band and everything they just didn't care They didn't care that these kids are running around this nightclub ballroom, man. It's crazy to me. It's just odd, man. I was born in the wrong time. I should have been born 20 years earlier. And I probably would have had the time of my life back then. But while Rich is playing the drums, Marge is looking. And you can see the glimmer in her eye as she falls in love with Rich at that moment. hearing him play the drums with that band and so everybody's dancing and having fun but uh we all know that good times eventually come to an end in the last scene of this episode we see the white mob masked up uh arrive at the black spot with their weapons drawn and the episode goes to black this this was this was not a Peace. heightened episode or a super exciting action-filled episode gory episode or anything like that that we've experienced previously this season but i think as far as story driven this was one of the best episodes i liked that we pushed the story along without having any gore or much anarchy going on you know this because the anarchy is definitely about to happen this was a breather episode that we needed to take after what we experienced last week in the sewers and what we're going to experience next week what goes down in the black spot if you don't know the story i'm not going to spoil it here but the black spot it goes down It goes down. We're in for a treat next week. If you are bored by just talking dialogue, nothing really happening this week, be patient. It's going to go down next week. But I did like this episode. We had some questions that got answered and we have a few that were raised.
