In Minute 89 of The Whole Shebang, Mike and Jenny are yet again joined by extra-fancy, Maleficent-hoodie-wearing guest host Jen Melchert, and after a brief detour into talking about late ‘90s/early ‘00s Hot Topic hate, we go straight into the Mandy vs. Brian RPG battle using quotes and references: Mandy’s opening volley of a combined Rolling Stones/Aleister Crowley quote, then Brian’s return to good old Oscar Wilde’s post-prison period with a quote about “suffering at the birth of a child as at the birth of a star,” Mandy’s riposte with Brian’s living in terror of not being misunderstood, and then Brian’s shockingly misogynist (or perhaps not?) use of a quote from Dorian Gray, and then Mandy’s eventual capitulation and disillusionment with the time and energy she gave to Brian. Then we talk a little about the rise of Dark Shannon and her new look copped from Jerry and from… the future? And finally we wrap up with Jen’s decision to pick such a dark five minutes of the movie for her week.
