Takahashi sleeps over at LUSH for the first time, he and Madame Pons are rolled up like a human burrito in one weighted blanket on the roof of LUSH on top of a waterfall:

Cotard: Christmas midnight mass is actually pretty fun...it's so dark out, the coffee tastes beanier, the donuts taste sweetier...

Dirg: those Instagram profiles where you don't know if they're real tho they look real, of swarthy Qatari women in heavy skirts and heavy beads, with blue and green eyes, getting married in a sterile room holding one bouquet of orange roses...

Nathalia Ramos: strangely blake holsey i'm known more for Arrested Development than House of Anubis...

Jessica Walter: i'm jealous of your accent, chickadee...

Francis Magee: tell me about it, i HATE video games! my pin is a pin from a grenade from the War of the Roses not woke twitter on their heart pockets...

Madame Pons: i refuse to accept the Pacific Grove McDonald's is closed permanently! we're gonna open it again, Taka.

Madame Pons: forest fries. that place was the citadel of cholesterol, we'll do a rebrand with just green options! this is the last one!, clear this candle off the shelf!

Laertus: we all got comfortable challenging the President of the United States, do you know how scary that is?!...

Laertus: i can't throw away my used inkless pens! can't do it anymore, they're too precious to me, they wrote my masterpieces, cared for my wounded heart when it broke and shattered, drew circles for comfort zones and dried my tears with ink when i cried...

Ricardo Montalban: elly gontz?

Tyzik wearing a Green Bay Packers jersey: concentrate on making each time you go onto a soap celebrity babe's Instagram memorable, make it a quality visit: write a clever comment and recommend a chocolate milkshake in the DM box when she asks what's the perfect pre-workout drink.

Takahashi: um, if you gotta do milky, Yakult...

Tyzik: every week on Instagram feels like a year...

Doryce: i am, i am, i'm looking in the classifieds...

Tyzik: PLANTERS PEANUTS FIGURED OUT DEATH AND THE AFTERLIFE! it's terminal velocity...

Tre Cool: i stay mum, i don't say much, i know when to keep my mouth shut for the good of the band...i got most of my millions from Green Day shirt sales...specifically the one with the nearly-naked greenhaired punk girl with the skateboard kneepads...

Kahlil Gibran: my rap name is Lil KG. memory is a form of meeting. i started New Age. i'm not gay, i just was too busy to marry Mary...Haskell...shame, that's why i drank...cos time...

Roger Federer: i'll stick the vaccine needle in your butt myself...

Eye Luggage: what were we talking about again?

Dirg: Backdraft was a serviceable movie.........see what i did there? as in fire service...

Jennifer Jason Leigh: i am NOT Elisabeth Shue!

Billy Baldwin: i remember when Backdraft first came out. it scared me, it intrigued me, it was mysterious and spooky, there was danger and naked butts and a ton of darkening smoke. much like Tim Burton's Batman...

Laertus: back when they used real fire not CGI flames...

Dirg: that poster caught my eye. but still, the '90s to me are just smelly granola chicks...

Eye Luggage: Last Tango in Paris and go...

Marlon Brando arrives in Paris:

Marlon: *hands up* i'm not here for Spring Break. not in the way you think, i got important business to attend to, renewal is always springing in Paris. i'm just here to see The Bitch (1979)...

Celine: SURE, THAT'S WHAT THEY ALL SAY!!!...

Joan Collins: i don't do that stuff anymore, i'm a serious writer, GET THAT BUTTER AWAY FROM ME!!!

Ethan Hawke: without Brando here in this, there would be no Jesse...

Laertus: i mean.........okay i'll start...well this is a very controversial film. on the one hand it's high art and considered bravura Brando's best standalone performance, his best Stanislavski monologues...

Stanislavski: i never wanted my actors to never break character and carry it home with them, that's how divorces happen! well, everyone except Jim Carrey, i want him to be ON forever... 

De Niro: I COULDA DONE THIS PART!!! I MEAN LOOK AT BRANDO'S HAIR!!! it's as silly as my hair in Backdraft!

Brando: i thought that was hep hair, mod look...with my hair i was going for the pre-Cobain Cobain...i lived longer than Cobain...

Laertus: is there any more special place than Paris in the '70s?...

Maria Schneider: just to be crystal clear: i was raped. i would be Bardot now were't not for butter.

Brando: hey that face you made, that's where buttaface comes from, right? i dunno, kids today and their fads. it wasn't butter tho, i can't believe it's not butter! i mean the anal sex wasn't real. it's just a movie. 

Maria: it scarred me for life. i'm an actress not a prostitute!!!

Brando: buttering those buns i mean PARKAY!!!.........i mean i shoulda asked if you were OKAY...

Dirg: Brando, as bloated as this so-called film. where was this "film" shown when it came out? the arthouse or the porno theater?

Dirg: Maria Schneider? are you French or German?

Maria: Romanian, numbnuts. i ain't no nun but don't call me a gypsy...

Mardith: i do love your hat in this, miss, it's so iconic with the flower! and your poofy hair.

Maria: i look like Before Jennifer Grey. hair game? doesn't beat my costar...JPL...

Jean-Pierre Leaud: i was the lead. Maria went toe-to-toe with Brando and eclipsed him, she was a powerhouse here despite her accent which no one not even me could understand. to this day people think i'm the famous director who invented New Wave. yeah i had some pretty wild hair over the years, one to play Tim Burton and one to play Bach but it really was Phil Spector...

Dirg: all the other ones in this are parochial French actors: that one chick grew up big to make Fat Girl. and that other chick did that cock-sucking scene...

Jean-Luc Bideau: i bid you adieu.........i'm not the French boy from Kyle XY...

Rubikon: don't forget Darling Legitimus! she is legitimate! she's the Truth! quietly stealing scenes her whole career cos blacks could only play maids and landlady key witches...

Pauline Kael: i was the only woman who stood up for this. in fact i was the only critic man or woman who defended it. the most famous film review of all time. i'm sorry but this was the way film was going at the time, it had broken in this direction....  

Robert Ebert: without that review, i'd be just another fat kid on the corner with a perverted view of sex instead of a cinematic one...

Bertolucci: i went to jail for this. then, i went to prison for this to keep this piece of work of mine viable and able to be accessed and seen by the public. i mean do you know how much blood sweat tears and cum went into making this? i ain't throwing all it out down the Italian bidet!

TCM: this isn't just another example of wokeness, this thing really is problematic!!!

Francis Bacon: they stole my act! they stole my paintings!!! the one of Susan Lucci at Sesame Street! i was dead so i couldn't charge their capital. the least they could have done is pay me in hams...and i don't mean buns...

Rubikon: soundtrack all colorized noir hence the trumpets and sex saxes, all from jazz of course...

Laertus: it's so much easier to shoot around the city than to build sets, your setting is already built!

Dirg: wait, is this gonna be all French with no English subtitles? well fuck me. or both languages? is Brando just gonna speak English? does Brando know French fluently or is he acting that he knows French?...

Bertolucci: yeah actually this was a problem. it should have been all or nothing, either have the whole thing French with English subtitles or have the two actors only speak English. 

Eye: disagree, director, this works. it's very natural, this is how it would be in Paris in the '70s, especially the student section, a mix of both, dipping in and out of the two languages, and both at once...

Dirg: scream to start, shoulda been a clue. if he's a hotel owner why doesn't he buy the apartment? the '70s, when an old man can just start humping on a random young-girl stranger off the street...

Brando: btw those kids were just peeing in the bush. even tho i'm supposed to be the old man in this, many people mistakenly think this was my final role or something, my Mickey Rourke comeback, but i actually did this concurrently with The Godfather...

Dirg: no names, we don't want the police involved. calmly discussing LP records after the rape. 

Brando: okay that was funny. not that, the suicide scene. not that suicide is funny, but my big dramatic moment when i monologue for hours over my wife's living casket with those toxic purple flowers that made me sneeze acid and read hieroglyphics, that's why i'm constantly pausing. i wasn't looking up to the sky for grace, the WHY ME GOD, that's where my cue card was! taped to the ceiling! hahahahahaha

Maria: so sir, you use cue cards? so THAT's the secret...

Brando: yeah makes it organic and improv, in-the-moment, present, FLOW and LATOM. i never memorize lines.

Cecily: you'd be perfect for SNL...well, not anymore...

Brando: i asked to write my lines on your butt, Maria...

Bertolucci: my response: we may be doing something sketchy here, but i'm not rude.

Brando: would have went well with the whole butter thing, clear your rear, clarified butter...

Pat: IHOP? oh they do a production of Into The Woods! like we did in college!

doctor: actually that was Rocky Horror...

Dirg: i mean is this whole movie just Brando walking in and out of rooms and darkened hallways?...

Dirg: yeah beat that French fag in the street!

Maria: i mean i have to shave Brando's back while i keep my hairy bush? 

Brando: be grateful we used a rat and not a pig, the pig stuff was my improv. the insanity of sexual fantasy...we have a father/daughter relationship...

Laertus: the SNL steel-cagematch elevator from the '80s!...

Brando: i ate that rat in real life...

G Gordon Liddy: hey can i have some of that rat, Marlboro old pal?...

Brando: you get the horsehead...

Laertus: making a movie is hard. making a movie with a '70s camera is hardest. with real reel-to-reel film. this is the first reality tv show! 

Maria: lifesaver, i would have preferred the candy after that kiss...

Laertus: hear that, Dirg? uniforms are useless, very Picardian.

Dirg: and then a long wandering monologue about some dog that hunted him? bit him in the butter? it's like he was reading the cue cards from Our Town...

Eye: never knew a cock was called a joint. and FINALLY we get to the ostensible tango bar! the actual title! and it's tres chic and '70s, open-mike night, no frills, no footlights or lasers, just a plain wood basketball court and mahogany purple velvet suits with purple gin...

Dirg: and suddenly Brando is Sean Connery. but farm life is the best, no pressure...

Maria: Brando was a bad dancer, and if i had seen that was what your butt looked like, like a bruised peach, Mr. Marlon Brando, i never would have sex with you if this were real life! ironic with the butt thing...

Brando: did you see how i stuck out my tongue, wagged it, and acted crazy? i was setting the template for all future Jokers to come...

Madame Pons: no means no, bro. don't be a frat guy, don't you have a mom?...

Mardith: Clue library...

Maria: your wife killed herself cos you're Marlon Brando...

Brando: it's a tragedy cos i finally in the end wanted to start a family with you, have a family to tie me to this world. which my bitch of a wife who whacked herself couldn't muster. i made you an offer, a gift. think about that the next time people voluntarily don't have children... 

Maria: i wouldn't have shot you if you didn't put on my father's military hat...can't make fun of the troops...

Brando: and i don't look dead, i look like i'm sleeping on the balcony. g'night, folks...

Maria: and i'm rehearsing my story for when Encyclopedia Brown questions me...g'night, folks...

Encyclopedia Brown: thank you, Maria, i'll take it from here. re-hearse, clever girl. so what do you want to do here...

Galivant: dunno, Pat's not here. 

Pat: *huffing and puffing* i'm here i'm here sorry, what'd i miss?

Galivant: everything. the entire ceremony and the last rites. the wedding was a day ago, our guests all drove home across the seven seas. where were you? you don't pray anymore so i texted you. Encyclopedia Brown here was nice enough to volunteer to be the officiant.

Encyclopedia Brown: *fixes his belt around his skinny belly* yeah Detective Conan---the anime one---was busy being the officiant to the wedding of Jimmy Kudo and Rachel...

Pat: completely forgot. i was watching my shows. 

Galivant: shows? strippers?

Pat: no my tv shows, Chicago Fire and ER, i never miss them. in case i become a doctor. even when i'm at college i have to watch. ESPECIALLY when i'm at college i watch them more cos it's my only tie to home and anything ground in this world. 

Galivant: *glumly* i'm not your home? i can never wear this dress again, it was timed to go out with the universe, i...i'm not mad...i can't show you i'm mad...can't have you with that power over me...i...ARGHHHHHHHHHHH

Pat: *chuckles lightly* heehee, angry God...

Galivant: angsty God. so are you finally living the life you dreamt?

Pat: yes, i'm living in memories, not long-term long-range plans. a robot has spam, an android has memory. but you know, i finally figured it out: this whole thing that i'm going through now, there wasn't a name for it before but now there is thanks to The CW: all this going crazy in supermarkets and not knowing what direction i'm in, where i'm going, the anxiety of the preadolescence of escaping parent tennis and dating a Russian cos my country abandoned me but mostly cos she was hot and smoking ivy and running away as my profession cos i'm in track and switching majors and going for paper---PhD not money---and not knowing what i'm doing and who i should be with if i ever do find anyone and the girl from Earth Girls who started it all cos she birthed me my notion of womanhood and blissful aural femininity and girls are NOT easy and setting fire to things accidentally: i went through a QUARTER-LIFE CRISIS.
