1.3 ReelShort - I Flash-Married My Best Friend?!

WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.759
Welcome to my vertical of session. Today we are talking

2
00:00:04.080 --> 00:00:08.480
about I flash married my best friend on Real Short

3
00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:12.359
and I've been slightly waiting to watch this since it

4
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:14.599
came out. I just had to wait a little bit

5
00:00:14.679 --> 00:00:18.079
before I could get the subscription to the app, so

6
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:19.879
it took me a little bit longer, but I would

7
00:00:19.879 --> 00:00:22.160
have done this a lot sooner. And for this one,

8
00:00:22.480 --> 00:00:24.600
the one thing that I really loved about this one

9
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:27.000
is that it was just like this cute little love

10
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:31.879
story of friends becoming more and then finally, you know,

11
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:35.719
falling for each other. And I always do love those stories.

12
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:38.399
I've always been kind of a fan of those stories.

13
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:42.320
And I know sometimes I like enemies to lovers a

14
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:45.640
bit more because the tension is always so much more

15
00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:48.920
fun to watch. Plus you always sit there like seeing

16
00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:51.679
these two fight and then you just want to go, okay,

17
00:00:51.719 --> 00:00:53.960
now just kiss, you know, you just want to kiss.

18
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:57.399
So like that energy of two people hating each other,

19
00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:01.840
all this pent up emotion, and it's always fun to watch.

20
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:04.280
And I know that that's the case with one of

21
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:07.000
the ones that just dropped on Candy Jar. That gave

22
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:09.680
me that little fix. So we'll have to talk about

23
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:12.000
that one a little bit. But here we are talking

24
00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:16.239
about Flash married my best friend, and we have characters

25
00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:21.680
Chloe Pascal and Matteo Lane who goes by Mattie to Chloe,

26
00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:25.040
which threw me off a couple of times because she

27
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.159
would always call him Maddie and then call him Matteo,

28
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.760
and my brain was just not always connecting the two

29
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:35.480
because I'm so used to matt or Mattie being the

30
00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:39.719
nickname for Matthew and probably heard it for Mateo too,

31
00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:43.640
but I've heard it more for Matthew, so I always

32
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:47.000
kept going, wait, no, his name's not Matthew, it's Matteo.

33
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:49.920
It was just one of those things that just kind

34
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:51.920
of threw me off a little bit, and I know

35
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:54.560
that really has nothing to do with the series. Sometimes

36
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:57.840
these names throw me through a loop every so often.

37
00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:01.560
So one of the things that I've love about Real

38
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:05.439
Short Now is that they put the actors and the

39
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:08.439
character names at the end of their series. And I'm

40
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:11.719
very grateful because there are times where I'll see a

41
00:02:11.800 --> 00:02:14.879
series and I'll be like, who is that. It's like,

42
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:18.120
I know I've seen them, and I know they've been

43
00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:20.439
in other things that I really like, but I don't

44
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:23.479
know their names. It's nice that they've started doing that,

45
00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:27.280
so I'm really appreciative to that. And I know it's

46
00:02:27.439 --> 00:02:30.599
mostly only Real Short that I see it on. I

47
00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:34.159
think kind of seen it on Drama Box or Good Short.

48
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:38.520
I think they've done a couple too, but I'm not

49
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:40.719
one hundred percent short, but I know it's definitely Real

50
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:44.039
Short that does it on theirs. Sorry, I went on

51
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.199
this whole tangent about names and then kind of lost

52
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:51.280
my train of thought. Okay, we're going back. So yeah,

53
00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:55.479
so going back to the actual show and the actual series,

54
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:58.000
And like I said, this was one of those friends

55
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:01.879
to lovers situation, especially with the character of Matteo slash

56
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:05.520
Maddie being in love with Chloe since they first ran

57
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:09.479
into each other in college and him wanting to be

58
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:12.719
more than friends with her, but she never seeing him

59
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.360
as more than a friend. And like I said, I

60
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:18.120
love these storylines because you can tell that it's one

61
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:20.919
of those things where they will get together and they

62
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:24.000
will figure out what they want, but it's going to

63
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:26.599
take some time to get there, which is why I

64
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:30.360
think they don't always do these kind of storylines from movies,

65
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:33.479
because I don't think these type of slow burns work

66
00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:35.680
as well, or it might just not be the movies

67
00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:37.680
that I'm watching. I know, I'm not saying that it

68
00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:41.680
doesn't work as well. I just sometimes certain movies producers

69
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:46.039
and directors and streaming services and they like the stories

70
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:49.800
that really draw people in and give more drama, and

71
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:55.039
sometimes these slow burn best friends don't always do that.

72
00:03:55.520 --> 00:03:59.120
And sometimes it's just a nice little romantic story that

73
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:01.759
you just need. So it's happy that this was the

74
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:05.120
type of story that it was because I think when

75
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:08.639
I watched the trailer, because the trailers always tend to

76
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:12.520
be a lot different than the actual series, and that

77
00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.439
also tends to be the case for movies and TV

78
00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.040
shows too, which is it a constant annoyance sometimes, But

79
00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:21.279
that's another thing that can be a talk I have

80
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:25.079
on my TV podcast because and I know that it's

81
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:28.800
been mentioned I think from like editors, TV people before

82
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:32.079
that the difference in the description shitay is always not

83
00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:35.240
fun because people get mad at that. You know, when

84
00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:39.000
it comes to movies, you know, you see a trailer,

85
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:41.480
you see all these great shots, but then sometimes there

86
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:43.680
are things in the trailer that aren't in the movie,

87
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:47.079
or for a TV show, they want something more dramatic

88
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.519
and to pull people in. Sometimes they'll add things or

89
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:53.360
they'll change things, and I've seen that quite a bit.

90
00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:56.920
I want to say Chicago Fire the most. I noticed

91
00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:59.639
that with Chicago Fire the most is that they'll kind

92
00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:02.199
of put in there. Chicago p D has been known

93
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:04.399
to do it too well. They'll add little things and

94
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:07.360
then when you watch the show, it's like that where

95
00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:09.959
that there was something in the trailer that never happened

96
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:12.639
in the actual episode. It's basically to draw you in,

97
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:15.279
make you want to watch. And I know with certain

98
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:19.079
shows and movies it's sometimes someone completely different doing the

99
00:05:19.120 --> 00:05:22.199
trailer than editing the movie and the show, I think,

100
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:24.839
and I think that's where the disconnect tends to happen.

101
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:27.879
I don't know if that's changed, but I know that

102
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.879
that was one of the disconnect things. But again I'm

103
00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:34.439
getting off topic, so going back, going back, I'm sorry,

104
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:37.199
going back. Like I said, the trailer was a little

105
00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:41.439
bit different than what the actual series was. And again,

106
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.439
this kind of happens because it's also one of those

107
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:47.680
things that when I watch the trailer, how I envision

108
00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:52.199
things going are not always how it plays out. And

109
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:55.800
I think that's more my mind doing that because I

110
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:58.199
think when I watched the trailer, which I may have

111
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:00.519
to watch it again just to refresh my memory, because

112
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.079
I know I watched the trailer back before the series

113
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:07.160
actually dropped, or maybe it was when the series just dropped,

114
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:10.600
before I could actually watch the whole series. The way

115
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:14.040
I envisioned it, or how I thought the trailer was saying,

116
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:17.959
is that Chloe and Matteo, best friends forever, ended up

117
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:23.199
getting drunk and then getting married accidentally, and now they

118
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:26.240
have to kind of figure out marriage together. That's how

119
00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:29.040
I kind of saw this, which is not how it

120
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:34.639
went at all. It was she found out her boyfriend. No, no, no,

121
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:37.199
that's how it usually starts out. This time, she did

122
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:39.639
not find out her boyfriend was cheating, even though Matteo

123
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:45.319
saw the boyfriend being a jerk and hitting on another woman.

124
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:47.800
But it was the boyfriend who broke up with her,

125
00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:51.199
because normally, again how it starts in series like these

126
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:55.040
is the girlfriend sees the boyfriend cheating and then breaks up,

127
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:58.800
is very sad, and then someone comes along to help

128
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:02.040
them cheer up in a sense, so either they end up,

129
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:05.279
you know, one night stand with this stranger, or this

130
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:08.240
stranger ends up being like, hey, let's get married. You

131
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:10.720
can help me type a deal and we can help

132
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:13.079
each other. So that's kind of how some of these starts,

133
00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:15.560
but that's not how this one started. This one started,

134
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:19.680
I said, with Chloe's boyfriend his name is Tom, breaking

135
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:23.439
up with her, and then Matteo coming to the rescue

136
00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:27.120
to help ease her broken heart, but first by trying

137
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:31.040
to get Chloe and Tom to make up be friends,

138
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:35.079
and of course Chloe's like, what are you doing? And

139
00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:37.879
even I sat there going like he just watched him

140
00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:40.959
slap someone else's ass and then break up with her,

141
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:43.920
and you're over here being like, yeah, make up, you know,

142
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:48.879
hug be happy. And then after when they're hugging, he

143
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:53.079
rips into Tom pretending like Chloe's his wife, yelling at

144
00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:55.360
him in front of everyone, and was like, oh, okay,

145
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:58.279
I see what he's doing now, Oh okay, nice one.

146
00:07:58.360 --> 00:08:02.439
He that one eight was so great. I loved it

147
00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:06.720
so much. He also was a bit confused at how

148
00:08:06.920 --> 00:08:10.680
this whole thing happened in front of people, but they

149
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:14.199
also didn't see the oh, let's make up, be happy

150
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:18.240
and the hug before the whole you're touching my wife

151
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:20.639
portion of that but I still loved it. It was

152
00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:25.240
it was so great and such an amazing moment for

153
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:28.720
him to do it was it was a swoon wothy,

154
00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:33.080
swoon worthy moment for sure. For Mateo to do that

155
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:37.039
for Chloe and to stick it to Tom and be like,

156
00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:41.519
go away, you're an asshole definitely made me fall in

157
00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:44.000
love with Matteo right there. And the other thing that

158
00:08:44.120 --> 00:08:47.159
kind of made me question, which I know I really

159
00:08:47.159 --> 00:08:49.639
shouldn't because this is how these series work, but it

160
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:53.519
was definitely one thing that I was very confused how

161
00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:58.799
that worked. Whereas in other series, like other series about billionaires,

162
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:00.799
it kind of makes a little bit more since but

163
00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:04.679
Mateo had been hiding the fact that he was this ceo,

164
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:09.360
this billionaire running this company from Chloe. You know, he

165
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:12.080
was hiding it from Chloe. But they had been living together,

166
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:15.360
I think what ten years, And it was one of

167
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:17.759
the things that I was like, how was he able

168
00:09:17.799 --> 00:09:21.440
to hide this from her for this long? How did

169
00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:26.960
she not realize he was maybe not a billionaire but

170
00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:31.240
not completely broke or not a ceo. And I know

171
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:34.440
they said you have to suspend your reality and kind

172
00:09:34.519 --> 00:09:37.120
of just enjoy it, but that was just like one

173
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:39.159
thing that I sat there going like, how did she

174
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:43.720
not know who he was this whole time? Like they've

175
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:46.120
been friends for so long, they've been living together for

176
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:49.039
so long, he was really able to hide. And speaking

177
00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:51.720
of hiding, that's the other thing too with these series

178
00:09:51.799 --> 00:09:55.759
is that the CEO tends to hide his identity from

179
00:09:55.799 --> 00:10:00.519
his entire business and employees. And I always sit there

180
00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:05.000
going like, is that actually possible to do in real life?

181
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:09.399
Like could a CEO really hide who he was from

182
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:12.639
his employees? And I know, if you think about it,

183
00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:16.519
there's you know, the Undercover Boss where like the series

184
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:19.679
if you haven't heard the series of Undercover Boss, where

185
00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:24.279
a boss goes gets transformed so no one knows who

186
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:28.879
who they are to work with their everyday employees and

187
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:31.279
see how things are going. And then I think at

188
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:33.320
the end, it's like one of the employees that they're

189
00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:36.039
working with has this sub story that they end up

190
00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:39.600
helping this employee out by giving them a raise or

191
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:43.639
giving them money or something. I've never actually watched the series,

192
00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:46.679
but I think from what I've seen some this has happened.

193
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:49.240
But at the end, the employee still knows what the

194
00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:52.799
CEO looks like or the boss looks like, so my

195
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:55.799
brain really wants to know if this is something that

196
00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:59.519
can actually happen in real life in a story like this, Yes,

197
00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:03.960
it makes for great drama, and you always know at

198
00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:06.639
the end that the person who's being lied to is

199
00:11:06.679 --> 00:11:09.720
going to find out, but not from the CEO himself.

200
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:12.279
It's going to be someone else. The girl's gonna be crushed,

201
00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:14.919
going to be feeld portrayed. And it just adds to

202
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:17.480
the drama, is what it does. And that's the whole

203
00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:20.320
point of it is it's for the drama. But it

204
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:23.840
just makes me wonder if this is something that could

205
00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:27.039
do because in this one, he also pretends to be

206
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:30.559
it and work in it, but don't think he really

207
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:34.960
was down in it at all or did anything it related,

208
00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:38.919
because that was also one thing in this where Chloe

209
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:42.919
ends up getting her laptop smashed with her proposal that

210
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:45.000
she had been working on and now she has to

211
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:47.120
do the whole thing over again. And I'm like, oh,

212
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:50.279
he says he's supposed to work in it, so why

213
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:53.399
doesn't he take the smash computer and be like, I

214
00:11:53.399 --> 00:11:56.279
can recover this, or I can try to recover this

215
00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:58.840
and let me get it back to you. Or why

216
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:01.000
doesn't she ask him? It's like, hey, you work in IT?

217
00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:04.240
Is there any way you can recover what's on my laptop?

218
00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:08.320
But I guess that would make sense and it may

219
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:12.000
end up exposing him before he needed to be exposed,

220
00:12:12.120 --> 00:12:14.879
because there are sometimes like that where I'll watch these

221
00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:17.000
series and I was like, well, if they do this,

222
00:12:17.559 --> 00:12:20.440
then maybe it would work. And then the next moment,

223
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:22.679
I go, wait, no, that would make sense, and that

224
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:25.320
wouldn't be the drama that we need. And in this case,

225
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:27.799
the drama that we need is for her to spend

226
00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:31.600
all this time redoing this proposal that was just lost

227
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:34.440
on a computer that was smashed. And I do know

228
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:38.679
that sometimes computers cannot recover all the data if something

229
00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:41.600
were to happen to it, so I understand that that

230
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:47.279
is possibility. I just kind of questioned why no one mentioned, hey,

231
00:12:47.480 --> 00:12:50.440
he works at IT, maybe he could save it type

232
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:52.399
of deal, because they kept saying, oh, he's just an

233
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:55.240
IT guy. He's just an IT guy who never tried

234
00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.039
to save her computer. And yes, I know he's a

235
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:02.159
CEO not IT guy. But that was just like one

236
00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:06.759
moment where I was like, why didn't they say that?

237
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:10.759
But again, it makes more drama if she asked to

238
00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:14.159
sit there and spend all night recreating it so that

239
00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:17.240
way she can win this proposal. And another thing that

240
00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:20.279
I keep seeing with these series, which they did in

241
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:23.600
this one. They did it in another one which had

242
00:13:23.799 --> 00:13:27.000
Seth as the star too, is the twist at the

243
00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:31.919
end of the girl being part of the billionaire family

244
00:13:32.120 --> 00:13:35.840
or the long lost daughter of this billionaire family and

245
00:13:35.960 --> 00:13:39.840
being matched to the CEO said to be marrying him.

246
00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:43.080
You know that they this was an arrangement that happened

247
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.320
when they were babies, but because she vanished or she

248
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:50.080
was twitched at birth type of thing, you know, it changed.

249
00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:52.799
So I've been kind of like noticing that it's been

250
00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:56.279
like a twist at the end now, at least for

251
00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:59.519
this one versus the one that Seth was in, which

252
00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:01.080
I think it was like it had something to do

253
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:04.000
with homeless and pregnant. I think that's the one, but

254
00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:06.080
I can't remember the name off the top of my head.

255
00:14:06.159 --> 00:14:08.799
But for this one, they actually kind of like started

256
00:14:08.840 --> 00:14:12.519
it earlier on versus that other one, it just kind

257
00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:15.000
of came in at the end because she had a

258
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:17.879
birth mark, which when they showed the birthmark in that one.

259
00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:20.399
I was like, one hundred percent something's going to be

260
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:22.000
about that. But I thought it was going to be

261
00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:23.799
one of those things where he's like, hey, I know you.

262
00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:27.440
I recognized that we met long time ago. I did

263
00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:30.480
not expect it to be, Hey, you're the daughter, You're

264
00:14:30.519 --> 00:14:33.799
the long lost daughter of this billionaire woman. I did

265
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:36.440
not see that that twist coming. But for this one,

266
00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:40.559
she was switched at birth, which made the mother her

267
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:44.039
mother not like her because she wasn't her real daughter.

268
00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:48.639
And I got that sense that she was either adopted

269
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.440
or not her real daughter as soon as Matteo asked

270
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:55.279
the question. And I can't remember what the question was,

271
00:14:55.440 --> 00:14:57.639
but it was something about how could you do this

272
00:14:57.679 --> 00:15:00.000
to your daughter? Or how could you treat your daughter

273
00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:03.279
like this? Something along those lines, And the way the

274
00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:06.200
mother responded it is like, yeah, yeah, yeah, she's she's

275
00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:09.080
my daughter. You could tell just from that that that

276
00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:14.000
she wasn't really her daughter. I just assumed it was

277
00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:18.960
she kidnapped Chloe or she adopted Chloe, but just never

278
00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:22.879
told her, never assumed that she swapped the babies because

279
00:15:22.919 --> 00:15:27.159
there was no inkling until Matteo started kind of questioning

280
00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:29.559
that because even he saw it where he was like,

281
00:15:29.879 --> 00:15:32.919
there's something not right here, definitely something not right. So

282
00:15:32.960 --> 00:15:35.320
it was kind of nice that they still had it

283
00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:39.320
within the series that it was like a side storyline

284
00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:42.720
versus just popping up at the end. But like they said,

285
00:15:42.759 --> 00:15:44.960
I have noticed that this is kind of like popping

286
00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:47.440
up a bit more, and sometimes it is a fun

287
00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:51.440
little twist, be like, oh, hey, she is the heiress

288
00:15:51.639 --> 00:15:53.840
that he is supposed to be marrying, so they can

289
00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:56.960
be together, it can be blessed and they can live

290
00:15:57.000 --> 00:15:59.879
happily ever after. But at the same time, I kind

291
00:15:59.879 --> 00:16:04.200
of I want one where she is just an average person,

292
00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:09.840
no royal family, no heiress, no billionaire, long loss billionaire

293
00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:14.240
daughter ends up with the charming CEO billionaire because they

294
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:17.440
love each other. Kind of like that type story, And

295
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:20.799
I know there are some out there. I just I said,

296
00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:22.840
I've been noticing a little bit more that they've kind

297
00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:25.080
of been doing that with some of the series. I

298
00:16:25.159 --> 00:16:30.120
was also pleasantly surprised that the mother and brother didn't

299
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:34.039
come back after getting money from Mateo. So you know,

300
00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:37.759
they had come to Chloe and Mateo's work trying to

301
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:42.960
act all innocent and victim, and like the victim that

302
00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:46.879
Chloe's treating them badly and all this YadA YadA YadA,

303
00:16:46.919 --> 00:16:49.759
because that's what they do, and then people believe them

304
00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:53.399
because they play the victim so well. Of course that's

305
00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:58.120
where Gina, who is her coworker, ended up smashing her

306
00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:02.240
laptop and ruining it, and then Gina got hers smashed

307
00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:06.240
and she ended up getting fired for that old tobacco. Well,

308
00:17:06.279 --> 00:17:08.599
but when it came to the mother and brother, you know,

309
00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:11.480
Matteo is like, okay, you have to You'll take the money,

310
00:17:11.559 --> 00:17:14.000
give me the deed, leave Chloe alone, and you know,

311
00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:16.880
like never come back. And normally, you know they in

312
00:17:17.000 --> 00:17:19.599
series like these, they take the money, they say oh yeah,

313
00:17:19.640 --> 00:17:21.960
we'll never come back, We'll never come back, only to

314
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:26.119
come back, kidnap or try and extort more money. So

315
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:29.160
I was very shocked because I was waiting for that

316
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:33.400
for her and the brother to come back in the series,

317
00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:35.480
and they never did. So I was like, I feel like,

318
00:17:35.559 --> 00:17:37.359
this is one of the first times I've seen this,

319
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:40.920
and it's probably not, but for my memory right now,

320
00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:43.960
this is me remembering it like that, and I just

321
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:46.839
didn't expect that. It was like you always see them

322
00:17:46.880 --> 00:17:50.000
come back because they're that money hungry that they want more.

323
00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:53.920
Also shocked that they didn't end up working with Jane Ridley,

324
00:17:54.079 --> 00:17:56.759
who was the daughter who was actually the mother's daughter,

325
00:17:56.839 --> 00:17:59.400
because Jane and Chloe were the ones who were switched.

326
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:02.759
Kind of shocked that they didn't have any interaction either.

327
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:06.119
Figured maybe they would, but they did not. And Jane

328
00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:09.839
or here trying to get Mateo and get her hooks

329
00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:12.400
into him, but he's madly in love with Chloe and

330
00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:16.279
will not leave her. So it's kind of interesting how

331
00:18:16.359 --> 00:18:19.000
they they did that. So it went from the mother

332
00:18:19.119 --> 00:18:23.119
being the one money hungry and trying to just do

333
00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:25.839
anything to get the money, to them leaving, and then

334
00:18:25.920 --> 00:18:28.559
Jane coming in and causing the issues to try and

335
00:18:28.759 --> 00:18:31.079
break them up so that way she could get Mateo

336
00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:35.319
for herself, and of course using people like Tom and

337
00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:38.880
Gina to try and get what she needed, only to

338
00:18:39.400 --> 00:18:42.599
have those plans foil, but putting it all on them

339
00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:45.759
instead of her getting in trouble, you know, which she

340
00:18:45.839 --> 00:18:48.400
worked that out perfectly because she's like, Okay, well I'm

341
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:51.119
going to talk to you, but you're the one who's

342
00:18:51.160 --> 00:18:53.039
going to do all this. I'm going to claim that

343
00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:55.400
I know nothing about this, and then You're the one

344
00:18:55.440 --> 00:18:57.160
who's going to get in trouble, and I'm going to

345
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:00.240
be perfectly fine. Nothing's going to happen to me because

346
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:02.599
I didn't do anything. It was all on you. You

347
00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:04.759
were the one who did this all, which worked out

348
00:19:04.839 --> 00:19:08.400
perfectly for her and usually does because it's usually, you know,

349
00:19:08.440 --> 00:19:11.440
the main villain gets away scot free from some of

350
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:15.160
these things until the very end where everything comes out

351
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.359
and they get sweet justice, which is what happened here

352
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:21.440
at the gala, is that she ended up not getting

353
00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:25.039
Mateo realizing she wasn't the daughter, the Ridley daughter she

354
00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:28.839
thought she was her father mister Ridley disowning her and

355
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:33.000
cutting her completely off, to her attacking Matteo and then

356
00:19:33.079 --> 00:19:36.440
being arrested for it. So it was a lot of

357
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:39.559
sweet justice and we did get a slap which we

358
00:19:39.599 --> 00:19:42.480
almost again another one where we almost did not get

359
00:19:43.240 --> 00:19:46.079
a good slap in but came near the end, so

360
00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:49.000
is waited till the very end and we got the slap.

361
00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:51.960
And one of the other things that I always look

362
00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:56.440
forward to these series is the baby. So whenever there

363
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:00.279
is a baby in these series, it's always ea there

364
00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:03.319
a rolled up blanket or just a doll, and I

365
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:08.599
understand that's probably because of rules and regulations when it

366
00:20:08.599 --> 00:20:11.720
comes to babies. I think there have been a couple

367
00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:15.079
where there have been like a baby for a scene,

368
00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:18.119
like I know. I think it's one of the series

369
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:21.039
Nicole's in where they kind of like show a flashback

370
00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:23.960
of how her life has been and she has the

371
00:20:24.000 --> 00:20:26.599
baby on her hip in a scene. I know that

372
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:28.319
one off the top of my head, So I know,

373
00:20:28.680 --> 00:20:31.519
like every so often they do show a baby, but

374
00:20:31.599 --> 00:20:34.759
like in a hospital room when after the baby is born,

375
00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:38.240
or like particularly in this one with the wedding at

376
00:20:38.279 --> 00:20:40.799
the end, where the mom or the grandmother is holding

377
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:43.960
the baby, it tends not to be an actual baby.

378
00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:46.720
It tends to be a doll or rolled up blanket.

379
00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:49.240
And I'm sure that has to do with rules and

380
00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:54.599
regulations and maybe how production works for these verticals, because

381
00:20:54.640 --> 00:20:58.279
I know for movies and TV shows, when it comes

382
00:20:58.319 --> 00:21:02.799
to babies, they can have babies on set for a

383
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:05.799
certain amount of time, they usually have to have more

384
00:21:05.880 --> 00:21:08.759
than one because it's only a limited amount of time

385
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:10.680
that they can have the baby on set, which is

386
00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:12.880
why you end up with twins most of the time

387
00:21:12.920 --> 00:21:16.839
playing these babies, or you know, triplets depending on who

388
00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:19.240
gets the role. So I'm sure it has something to

389
00:21:19.319 --> 00:21:22.079
do with that, because I know the rules are very

390
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:24.720
strict for TV and movies, and I'm sure they're just

391
00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:27.759
as strict for series like these. But it's always fun

392
00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:31.279
to see how they create the baby or what they

393
00:21:31.319 --> 00:21:34.279
do for the baby, and I think my favorite is

394
00:21:34.440 --> 00:21:37.960
always the rolled up blanket where you don't actually see

395
00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:41.279
like a baby, versus where you see the doll, the

396
00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:45.640
baby doll, which, to be fair, there are dolls out

397
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:48.680
there that are very lifelike, and I know I think

398
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:52.599
some shows actually do use them for like birthing scenes,

399
00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:55.440
or they use them if you know the baby is

400
00:21:55.599 --> 00:22:00.799
premature or they can't actually have a real baby on set.

401
00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:03.480
So I always kind of like wonder, could they do

402
00:22:03.599 --> 00:22:06.400
something like that or is that like an expense that

403
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:10.440
can't be used, because sometimes the dolls that they use

404
00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:13.279
are more doll like. But I do know that there

405
00:22:13.319 --> 00:22:16.279
are kind of dolls out there that are very lifelike

406
00:22:16.359 --> 00:22:18.559
in a sense, and I think they're also used in

407
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:22.680
like nursing schools or or like medical schools kind of

408
00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:27.119
to teach people and teach medical professionals. But I don't

409
00:22:27.119 --> 00:22:29.000
know about that one that was always kind of like

410
00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:31.079
one thing that I was very curious whether or not

411
00:22:31.200 --> 00:22:34.640
they could use a doll like that for the baby,

412
00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:37.200
because then it would kind of look more realistic. But

413
00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:39.079
it is always kind of fun to see, Okay, what

414
00:22:39.119 --> 00:22:40.880
are they doing for the baby this time? Is that

415
00:22:40.920 --> 00:22:43.160
a baby? Will it look like a baby, or is

416
00:22:43.200 --> 00:22:45.720
it just a roll of blanket? Which I think for

417
00:22:45.880 --> 00:22:48.160
this one it might have been just a roll of

418
00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:51.440
blanket because we never actually saw the baby. We just

419
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:54.839
saw the grandmother holding the baby and talking to the baby,

420
00:22:54.920 --> 00:22:57.759
so you saw the baby all wrapped up in the

421
00:22:57.799 --> 00:23:01.200
blanket and not the actual baby, so they could get

422
00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:04.960
away with not having anything, or maybe just having a doll.

423
00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:07.000
I also kind of feel like I've gone on like

424
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:11.240
some little tangents about different series versus actually talking about

425
00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:13.480
this one as a whole, which is not what I

426
00:23:13.559 --> 00:23:16.200
meant to do. But I just kind of was like, Okay,

427
00:23:16.240 --> 00:23:18.480
well we did this, this is what's normally done, so

428
00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:22.039
but it wasn't done in this And I try to

429
00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:25.319
stay on topic. I do, but as you can see,

430
00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:28.319
I start talking about something and it just keeps going.

431
00:23:28.400 --> 00:23:31.240
But this one was fun. I did. I did enjoy it.

432
00:23:31.359 --> 00:23:34.319
I thought it was really cute. I loved it. The

433
00:23:34.359 --> 00:23:38.000
actors who played Chloe and Matteo. You could really feel

434
00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:41.519
their chemistry with each other. And I love how she

435
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:44.799
slowly to kind of realize it's like, oh, I actually

436
00:23:44.799 --> 00:23:47.440
do have feelings for Matteo and I do want to

437
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:50.799
be with him, but can I let myself do that

438
00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:53.920
type of thing? So you could see that she was

439
00:23:53.960 --> 00:23:56.839
slowly starting to fall for him even though he's been

440
00:23:56.839 --> 00:23:59.559
in love with her four years, and you just kind

441
00:23:59.559 --> 00:24:03.599
of saw how she was opening her eyes to realize

442
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:06.279
that he could be the person I could spend the

443
00:24:06.319 --> 00:24:09.440
rest of my life with and I do really want

444
00:24:09.440 --> 00:24:11.960
to be with him, and that I do love him.

445
00:24:12.160 --> 00:24:14.400
And I love when we get to see that, because

446
00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:16.799
a lot of the times you sometimes don't get to

447
00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:19.319
see that. You see it's like, oh, well he loves me,

448
00:24:19.599 --> 00:24:22.160
but he's in love with her, and I'm never going

449
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:24.559
to be with me. He's never going to leave her

450
00:24:24.599 --> 00:24:27.960
and be with me type scenarios. So I love that

451
00:24:28.119 --> 00:24:30.799
this wasn't that it was a he wants to be

452
00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:33.599
with me even though she's trying to say, oh, hey,

453
00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:36.039
I'm supposed to be with him. I don't. I'm not

454
00:24:36.119 --> 00:24:39.119
buying that. But yeah, so this has been me frantic

455
00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:42.720
hopefully talking about Flash Married. I'm a best friend. I

456
00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:45.240
know I didn't always kind of talk about that, but

457
00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:49.400
it was definitely this little, cute little love story, and

458
00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:54.559
I love how it stuck to the normal series short

459
00:24:54.599 --> 00:24:59.039
drama tropes and actions, but also kind of was its

460
00:24:59.119 --> 00:25:02.359
own series as well. So it's kind of like it

461
00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:05.200
was a combination of Bolt Innocence that it was like

462
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:09.400
this little romantic comedy but also your typical vertical short

463
00:25:09.519 --> 00:25:12.359
type series and had all the different little things, but

464
00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:15.799
also was still very much this cute little love story

465
00:25:15.960 --> 00:25:18.559
where you got the happy ending and they were able

466
00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:21.599
to renew their vows and have this nice wedding and

467
00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:25.839
it was just wholesome fun. Enjoyed every minute of it.

468
00:25:25.839 --> 00:25:29.119
It's definitely say about a nine out of ten on

469
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:31.880
a rating scale for me, and I think mostly because

470
00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:35.440
it had Luke Charles Stafford in it, who I adore.

471
00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:38.119
He's another one that I adore. I also confuse him

472
00:25:38.119 --> 00:25:41.240
from time to time with Chris Brochu, who was on

473
00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:43.960
The Vampire Diaries. For some reason, my brain things that

474
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:47.279
they look like even though I don't actually think they do,

475
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:50.279
so definitely have to like put them side by side

476
00:25:50.519 --> 00:25:53.200
and see. But for some reason, my brain sees him

477
00:25:53.240 --> 00:25:55.440
and goes, you know what, he looks so much like

478
00:25:55.680 --> 00:25:58.920
Chris Brochu and I that's just one of the things

479
00:25:58.920 --> 00:26:02.200
that my brain likes to confuse him for. But he

480
00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:05.160
is another one that I do enjoy his series, and

481
00:26:05.200 --> 00:26:07.839
I've seen a couple different ones of his. I know

482
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:10.720
he just had another one come out on Real Short

483
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:13.240
again terrible with names, but I do know. It was

484
00:26:13.279 --> 00:26:16.920
about his wedding. His sister was in town or all wolves,

485
00:26:17.079 --> 00:26:21.359
and his fiance thought that his sister was actually his mistress,

486
00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:25.039
so they attack her, not realizing that it was actually

487
00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:28.319
his sister. And I keep seeing those ads and those

488
00:26:28.359 --> 00:26:31.839
clips on TikTok and Instagram sometimes on Facebook two and

489
00:26:31.880 --> 00:26:34.440
I have to watch that one. That's another one that

490
00:26:34.480 --> 00:26:36.480
I will definitely watch. So I need to see how

491
00:26:36.519 --> 00:26:39.920
that ends. I want to know how it ends with

492
00:26:39.960 --> 00:26:42.599
the fiance, whether or not she gets kicked to the

493
00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:46.519
curb or put in jail or you know, banished from

494
00:26:46.559 --> 00:26:48.319
the pack, because I know, because you know, he's not

495
00:26:48.400 --> 00:26:50.720
marrying her, you know that's not happening. But that's another one.

496
00:26:50.720 --> 00:26:52.359
That I have to watch and I look forward to

497
00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:55.279
watching it. I have a long list of ones that

498
00:26:55.319 --> 00:26:58.839
I gotta watch, which I will definitely be doing this weekend,

499
00:26:58.920 --> 00:27:00.640
kind of going through and watch some of them. But

500
00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:02.079
this was one of the ones that I wanted to

501
00:27:02.119 --> 00:27:04.759
watch first because I really wanted to see it because
