Good work on the research. Top notch.

Thank you. It was an irritating itch not knowing offhand what he was plagiarizing. I almost looked it up but checked here first and was not disappointed.

[u/sighs__unzips]

It reminded me of this, which I guess was a parody of Sally Field's speech.

[u/Ioneos]

"I've wanted more than anything for you to understand, the Kaylon are dickheads, RIGHT NOW, THEY'RE REALLY DICKHEADS!"

[u/matt4787]

Damn Mandela effect.

[u/GoAvs14]

She sounds insane here.

[u/Adimdim]

Weird. How did she know EXACTLY what he was going to say?

[u/[deleted]]

Yeah did anyone else find Issac speech just as creepy? "You like me now"

[u/allocater]

She seems like a young version of this background character from Kimmy Schmidt who is always desperate to do anything, ha.
