CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Hello and welcome to a sick episode of QI,
where we'll be sneezing and sniffling,
but always socially distancing, of course.
I think our guest list this evening must be some sort of sick joke.
They are - sick as a parrot, it's Jo Brand.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Sick as a dog, it's Maisie Adam.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Sick as a pig, it's Lee Mack.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Hello.
And sick as a blue whale, it's Alan Davies.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
And their buzzers don't sound quite themselves.
Jo goes...
MAN GROANS
Maisie goes...
MAN RETCHES, STOMACH GURGLES
Lee goes...
MAN COUGHS AND VOMITS
And Alan goes...
Mate, that is well sick!
LAUGHTER
Right, on with the questions.
Which weirdo genius left a plague zone to test his eyesight?
MAN GROANS
Mine sounds the most like sex, doesn't it?
Well, my kind of... I was going to say, not to me, Jo. No.
That's quite an insight, there. To me, sadly.
I was going to say possibly some kind of wanker.
LAUGHTER
I mean, you can't... No, no, no,
just because he's got failing eyesight
and that's what they say, isn't it, if you... If you...?
Oh, I see! It's a bold statement for the only person wearing glasses.
LAUGHTER
"Who said that?"
LAUGHTER
Did you want to say something? Dominic Cummings. Dominic Cummings!
KLAXON
He did what any good father would do! Yes.
As the age-old saying goes,
if your eyes are given your hassle, drive to Barnard Castle.
LAUGHTER
When was there a plague before?
The bubonic plague? Yeah, the Great Plague.
Round about 1380-something, wasn't it?
Wasn't there one more recent than that? 17th century? 1665.
Yes, yes! A point!
1665. Yes, I know, right? APPLAUSE
I retire.
I knew what century the Great Plague was in. Come on!
A plague swept the south-east of England and Sir Isaac Newton
fled Cambridge and shut himself up at the family farm at Woolsthorpe.
So what do we know about Newton? Theory of...? The apple on his head.
It's gravity, isn't it? Except that didn't happen. It was a myth? What?!
That apple thing's a myth?! Are you telling me the apple went up?
He propagated it as a bit of a myth, the story about the apple, but it is
from exactly the same time. So his theory of gravity is from then.
But he also studied optics
and he wanted to work out how the eye worked.
And this was a guy who was fully committed, OK?
So in order to work it out, he took a bodkin,
which is like a little hatpin,
and put it between... No. ..his eyeball... No.
..and the socket to see what effect that would have on his vision.
Why?! Anyway, he poked around and apparently it does
affect your eyesight, affected what colours he saw,
and he could see spots before his eyes and so on,
and I think that's kind of a dedication to his work right there.
Wow. And he is immediately following the plague,
he studied the best way to cure the disease and he decided
the best option - to make toad vomit lozenges.
Anybody want the recipe? Yes, please. OK, so first of all,
hang your toad upside down in the chimney for three days, OK? What?
I hope that's not a euphemism. In the chimney?
He was full of ideas. I know. With the fire going underneath it?
It doesn't say, it doesn't say about the fire. Just says,
"Collect vomit emitted before it dies on a dish of yellow wax.
"Be sure to include the detritus from the bottom of your fireplace" -
so bits of ash and so on -
"and then grind the vomit with the frog remains and form lozenges."
And then you place the lozenges around the affected body parts.
And the idea is the tablets would draw the poison out of the body.
So they're not lozenges to suck, then? No. How disappointing.
Yes, I know. Right? Anyway, do you think it worked?
No. No, of course not. Yeah. Oh.
It's a time when mysticism and alchemy were pretty much
indistinguishable from chemistry and biology.
So it was just his best guess. I have to say that the prescription
was not worthless because it was sold.
The handwritten recipe by Newton was sold at Bonhams in 2020 for £60,000.
So... In 2020? Quite ironic, isn't it, really,
given what he was like with his eyes. 20/20. Yeah.
LAUGHTER
The similarities between the 2020 coronavirus epidemic
and the Great Plague of 1665 are sort of startling.
So King Charles II, he shut down the pubs, he shut down the universities,
he banned most public gatherings.
Every day, the death tolls were publicly posted.
Mourning was limited. What about afternoon? Ha-ha-ha. Sorry.
LAUGHTER
And, actually, plague doctors sort of wore PPE,
it's the rather famous mask... There it is, the beaked mask,
and it probably worked. It's a bit like face masks today.
I mean, incorrectly, they thought it was the sweet-smelling perfume
that you placed in the beak that protected them from the bad smells.
Oh, I thought that was a socially distancing thing.
That's not foolish...surprisingly. That is exactly right.
Well, then don't use it in the edit, I've got my brand to think of.
LAUGHTER
You've got a brand, darling? Of course. Paddy McGuinness
can't do those Greggs adverts forever.
LAUGHTER
And they also wore thick gloves and they had long sleeves and stuff,
basically preventing fleas from biting their skin.
Now, who has shooting stars coming out of their bottom?
Are you...? What? Oh, this is a question. I thought you had...
It's a philosophical question.
I thought you were being very middle class and you wanted to know who's farted.
Yes, I say who's got shooting stars coming out of their bottom?
What do you call it in your family, with the children?
Like, my family called it trumping.
We say pumps. Pumps. I'm old school. I say fart. Yeah.
But, you know, they like to say bottom burp. "Who's bottom burped?"
I go, not me, I farted.
LAUGHTER
And we've got a dog now and you know how smelly their farts can be.
Yeah. And you can't call that a bottom burp,
it's too nice and delicate a word, isn't it, for what they do.
We call it attempted murder. Yeah, it is, isn't it?
Shooting stars out of the bottom?
Well, I could imagine that I might have had a row with Vic Reeves
when we were pissed and he might have shoved a DVD up
and then had to pull it out again. I don't know.
One of Jo's crazy nights out.
LAUGHTER
We're up in space.
Shooting stars out the backside.
Is it what methane does when it reacts with a vacuum?
Wow. That's very scientific. What happened to that brand?
Oh, God. I know.
Eh, is it a fat bloke who's eaten too many silver star biscuits?
LAUGHTER
Much better, Lee. Use that one.
So the International Space Station has had a lavatory upgrade.
Here it is. look at that.
It's called the Universal Waste Management System
and it cost $23 million.
That costs $23 million? For one? So, yeah, for one. Yeah.
Everybody has to share, up on the International Space Station.
Here is the thing. This particular toilet has the ability
to sort faecal bits from the rest of the waste to allow the liquid
to be recycled... 23 million?!
Wait... You can buy a sieve for 4.99.
Well... What are they recycling it as? No, no, don't you dare.
They're recycling the liquid as... Lucozade.
Water. Drinking water. No, no. Drinking water.
For them on the spaceship? Mm. Oh, come on.
No, for the Royal Family!
LAUGHTER
That's unbelievable. It is unbelievable.
But the good news is if you're a woman and you want to go into space,
there is an improvement for women astronauts.
There's now a funnel especially designed for women
and they're a sort of - how can I put this? - there's, like, ridges
to help women position themselves.
But we still haven't found a truly unisex lavatory
that works for everybody.
Are they holding their personal toilet? They're all... Yes.
Where is the...? Where are the ridges? On the inside of the...
So the women have to, yes, position their bottom exactly right.
Where are the ridges? So there is a serious issue, OK -
the old toilet did not allow astronauts to urinate and defecate
at the same time. And that is more difficult for women to control.
It's just a thing. Can we just do a quick sort of straw poll. Mm.
Is it difficult for you not to defecate when you've had a piss?
Sorry, can I just check, Jo, have you been speed dating before?
LAUGHTER
"Can I just check,
"do you find it difficult to defecate and piss at the same time?
"No? You're in, get your coat, you've pulled." I was so excited
about being on this show. I told my mum and dad, they said,
"Oh, you're on with Jo Brand? Let me know what she's like."
I'm going to tell her, you'll never guess what that she asked me, Mum.
If women defecate, they nearly always urinate at the same time.
I'm 52. I don't think I ever knew that. Yeah.
Never crops up, though, does it? It does when I'm speed dating.
That's how I met my husband. Anyway... What they have now
is they have, like, a training potty on the ground
which has got a camera in it to teach you how to position yourself.
And so what they have is a vacuum cleaner-like contraption
to suck away the urine and then a hole with a bag for the faeces, OK?
But how...? Surely just a cork would do.
That would certainly sort it out. But there was a problem.
It was a really big problem in the early days.
They used to have to put some germ-killing liquid in the bags,
the bag with the faeces, and then they had to knead it
for a few minutes. They themselves? Yes.
So it could be stabilised and then it was stowed away
for re-entry. Re-entry?!
LAUGHTER
Wow! Surely they could just put it in the bin?
So, when the toilet container is full of sealed poo bags,
it jettisons them into space
and they eventually burn up in the Earth's atmosphere
and become shooting stars.
Oh. That's not going to be quite as romantic now we see.. No.
"Oh, look, you know that, I reckon that was Neil Armstrong
"having a shit, that one." Anyway, moving on.
Now, what's the best way to survive in the Sahara? Oh.
JO: Are we allowed to ask you about this? Yes, go on, then.
Cos I reckon you know quite a lot about the Sahara cos you're Sandi.
Hey-hey!
Heeeey. Thank you.
Thank God that was a joke cos I thought your geography was terrible.
I thought you were going to go, "You know about the Sahara cos you're Danish."
What was the question?
What's the best way to survive in the Sahara?
Wear a hat. Yeah. I know how to get water.
You can get a bit of plastic with four sticks in the corners
so it dips in the middle,
and you put a cup under it... Mm-hm.
..and then the condensation at night will get under, on the underside,
and will all run to the middle and drop in the cup.
AUSTRALIAN ACCENT: That's a tip from the outback in Australia that I learned when I was in Australia.
AUSTRALIAN ACCENT: You're absolutely right.
NORMAL ACCENT: But what if you've got some water?
Should you make it last for a long time or drink it all?
What should you do? Sip it slowly. No. No.
I know that. I meant gulp it all down in one.
In fact, only have half of it and throw the other half away.
LAUGHTER
Lots and lots of hikers who have been found in a poor condition
have been found with plenty of water in their bottles.
If you're thirsty, you should drink. The water is better inside you than it is inside the bottle.
And you should use relatively large gulps, to be honest,
cos if you use small sips, the body does not recognise
that it has been rehydrated and you stay thirsty.
But the first thing... And you should, by the way,
once you've emptied your bottle,
fill it up with your urine and drink it. No. No? Yes.
You shouldn't do that? No. Bear Grylls does that. Absolutely not.
No matter what Bear Grylls says, drinking urine will only further dehydrate you.
Why might that be? Because it's very salty. Unbelievably salty.
It has a salt content of about 2%, depending on the person. Oh, Bear.
That's not much lower than sea water, which is 3.5%.
And kidneys will waste water trying to remove the salt from the body
for a second time.
So one of the other things is what you said about wearing a hat,
saves sweat, not water, so you can reduce the amount of water
you're losing by finding shade.
Don't eat too much because your body will waste water digesting it
and even keeping out of the wind,
because air can speed up sweat evaporation.
What about taking water out of a cactus? What do we think about that?
I'd say that's a good idea. LAUGHTER
So you're in the Sahara... Yeah. Yeah, you'd struggle to find one.
Oh, you're still in the Sahara? I'm still in the Sahara.
You didn't say that. Oh, in that case,
if you're in the Sahara, I'll tell you what, I wouldn't even bother, there isn't any.
What do you think kills more people than that thirst in the desert?
I bet it's hypothermia. No, it's not hypothermia.
It's counterintuitive is what it is. Chapped lips.
What would be the very, very, very extreme opposite of dehydration?
Drowning. Drowning is exactly right.
Drowning? Drowning in the desert? Drowning is exactly right.
People neglect the threat of flash floods.
So dry channels, ditches, what are sometimes called wadi,
they can fill with water really quickly.
And it's fantastically strong and very, very violent.
And it can suddenly create a wall 10 to 30 feet high.
More people will die of drowning than they will die of thirst.
Don't go to the desert without a life jacket.
I just love the idea of Alan walking around in a life jacket.
"You'll see. You'll see."
Speaking of a lack of water,
what Olympic sport could you do in an empty swimming pool?
So we're looking for a sport that roughly takes place in that size?
Well, it's a sport that developed from empty swimming pools.
Skateboarding. Yes! What about comedy diving?
You'd only have the event the one time, I think.
Like that TV show Splash! that you did, but it'd be called Thud!
I was just going to say synchronised swimming,
cos then it's just dancing, innit? That would just be nice.
Just dancing in a floral bonnet.
There was a drought in California in the late 1970s and it meant
there were a lot of pools that were left empty and it coincided
with the rise of skateboarding and it helped develop the concept,
first of all, of something called bowl skating. And then...
Not a pool like that, though. They're called kidney shaped pools.
Yeah. Yeah. I used to skateboard, you know. Back in the day. Did you?
Yes, I loved it. Had Kryptonic wheels.
Red. 65 mils. There are people at home going, "Oh!"
When you see, like, the sort of '90s grunge music videos from California,
they're often skateboarding around... Doing the stuff. Yeah.
Alan's quite pleased that you associate his skateboarding with the '90s!
It was a long time before that. They're all skateboarding round
and Alan's there going, "I'll pick you up at five, love."
LAUGHTER
Anyway, some tricks.
Let's see if anybody can tell me what they entail. A stiffy.
That's when you skateboard with an erection.
LAUGHTER
And it's very important not to fall.
Is a stiffy when you go along those metal railings
cos they're stiff? No. So you jump off the top of the ramp,
you keep both your feet on the board,
and then you straighten your legs and hold your board with your hand.
OK, how about a hippy jump? Oh, well, that's easy.
You just got a fellow along to lie down and try and jump him like a double decker bus.
A little bit. Is it a bit like that? A little bit.
Basically, you jump off your board, so over an obstacle,
it keeps rolling and then you land back on it.
Oh, I've seen these. Have you? Yeah. Salad grind.
That's just a lunch break from it all, isn't it?
So the back wheels slide across the top of a ramp
while the front is raised upwards. It's named after the inventor, a man
called Ed Dressen and who was known to his friends as "Salad" Dressen.
Oh, clever. Oh, now you've explained I can't believe I didn't get it.
Yeah. The opposite of a salad grind is a willy grind
where the front slides on the ramp and the back is depressed.
And your cock goes along the edge of the ramp.
Named after a Filipino boarder called Willy Santos.
This one's very unpleasant. This is called a sack tap.
I know what a back, crack and sack is. Have you ever had one?
No. I've often thought about it. Why have you thought about it?
Are you particularly hairy? No, but I'd like to be smooth.
LAUGHTER
Just for once, you know.
Do you know what the correct term is for hairy buttocks? I do not.
Dasypygal. Wasn't she a judge on Strictly?
Sack tap. Well, a sack,
it'll be something about you go so low down... Yeah.
..that you're tapping your sack on the board.
Oh, you'd, like, teabag the floor. Teabagging the floor to put it
in more youthful terminology.
So the skater has jumped off the top of the ramp, OK,
they grab the board with both hands
and then they tap the scrotum with the board and then put the board
back under the feet. Who thought that was a thing?
Tapping your scrotum with a skateboard? Be awful if you started,
and you didn't even have to lift the board up! Lee!
That's horrible.
What is so solid about the siksik squirrel?
What are you calling him, the squirrel? Siksik. Siksik?
Also known as the Arctic ground squirrel.
Siksik. He's called siksik because that's the sound he makes.
It's onomatopoeic. Oh. Very strong teeth.
No. This is... You know, every now and then we do a creature on here
that I go, oh, isn't the world amazing?
So it hibernates for eight months of the year, during which time
it freezes solid - the whole squirrel, OK? What?!
It can supercool its blood to minus three degrees centigrade.
So that's colder than any other mammal can survive.
Humans die if our temperature fluctuates even by a few degrees
either side of 37.5.
So a liquid needs something for its molecules to grab on to
before it can form ice crystals.
And to avoid this, all imperfections are removed from a siksik's blood
and we do not know how they do this. Whoa.
But here's the really unfortunate side-effect.
They hide away, so you can... I can imagine what the side-effect is -
people finding them. If you picked one up, darling, and you shook it,
it would freeze and die. Oh!
So its heartbeat slows down to just twice a minute.
So that's the same pace as a... Blue whale. A blue whale, exactly right.
Every three weeks, it comes out of hibernation
because it has to go to sleep,
because, even though it's been frozen,
the brain still needs sleep from time to time.
Now, what happens to your body if you engage in too much spelunking?
Spelunking... Is it one of your skateboard moves?
Oh! No. I like that, though. We've done a quick spelunk.
So the Latin "spelunca" is cave.
So it's the hobby of exploring caves - spelunking.
Oh! Ah. So, in 1989, they did an experiment.
They took a 27-year-old Italian interior designer called
Stefania Follini and it was an experiment about circadian rhythm,
so about the way in which your body normally functions.
And she lived in isolation in a cave in New Mexico.
This is the actual cave where she lived. She had a guitar,
she had computers not attached to the internet.
She found two mice in the cave,
which she named Giuseppe and Nicoletta,
and they became her sort of companions.
I thought you said she found a mouse called Giuseppi and Nicol ate her.
Don't know who Nicol is but it's her only friend, she could have left him alone.
She lost weight. She had very low vitamin D. Her period stopped.
Her body clock changed completely.
She would stay awake for 20 hours and then sleep for 10. Oh.
And when she came out after 130 days,
she guessed she'd been there for 60 days. Whoa! Did she have...
She had the lighting, right?
She had that lighting, but she didn't have any natural light.
She had no form of time-telling. ..whatsoever.
And when she came out, it was really way, way too bright for her.
She had to have dark glasses and so on. There she is, coming out.
Oh, yeah. Looks all right. Looks all right, but that's going in. Yeah.
LAUGHTER
Caves - we go back to spelunking - can obviously cause claustrophobia,
but I just wanted to show you this
cos it's one of my bucket list things I want to do.
It's the Sarawak Chamber in Borneo. It is... Look at that. Wow, yeah.
But what you get in there is not claustrophobia,
because obviously it's a large space.
You get agoraphobia, which is...
A lot of people call it a fear of open spaces
but, basically, it's a situation where you feel
there may be no escape from it. Isn't it ag-raphobia? It... Yes.
It's not called agoraphobia... OK, so the Elves and I had
had a long discussion about this...
Isn't the Agora the name of the public square?
Is that where it comes? Yes. It is to do with wide open spaces.
And I said ag-raphobia and they assured me it was agoraphobia.
They're wrong. But everybody says "ag-raphobia". Everyone says...
It's the same word with different pronunciations.
Listen to them backtracking in your ear.
"It's the same word, it's the same word!
"It's a different pronunciation!" You've got it wrong!
You Elves... El-ves, I call you.
LAUGHTER
People in that cave might be suffering from megalophobia,
which is a fear of huge structures. Me-gail-o-phobia.
You could fit ten Wembley stadia inside there. Stadium!
LAUGHTER
We just say Wembleys. You don't need a plural of Wembley Stadium, do you?
There's only ever going to be one. Unless you need to fit ten of them.
They must be Wembley Stadiums because they can only ever be
one Wembley Stadium. OK. Thank you. Good night.
LAUGHTER
It's a shame, cos you really were looking as though you were going to win and now I don't know.
I never win on this show. Do you want to win?
More than you could possibly imagine, Jo. I always come last, Jo.
OK. And with that, it's time for a round of killer questions,
the plague on all your houses that we call General Ignorance.
Fingers on buzzers, please.
Which of these soaps will clean me up best?
Oh. Oh, yes, Lee. Gotta be the antibacterial.
KLAXON
It's got to be. Are the Elves wrong again?
LAUGHTER, KLAXON
Oh, no, sorry, sorry, no, no, no, no, no.
Is it the antibac-terial? Did I pronounce it wrong?
Maisie. Normal. You're absolutely right.
There is no clear evidence that antibacterial soap is any better.
May even be worse.
So soap works by dissolving fats, which helps dislodge the dirt...
What?! LAUGHTER
To think if you just showered more. No-one told me that!
I eat three bars a day.
You've not been overeating, you've been underwashing. Yes!
LAUGHTER
A lot of those beauty bars, the ones that smell really nice,
are technically not soap at all. They're cheese.
Just lathering yourself up with brie. Philadelphia.
Are they toad vomit?
"Oh, God, I've left the toad in the chimney again!"
They're technically synthetic detergents and not soap at all.
Soap has to consist of alkali salts, fatty acids.
How can you tell that your toe is not broken?
You can wiggle it.
KLAXON Oh.
I forget with this show to say it in your head first. Yeah.
Edit. Yeah. So it is an old maxim if you can move it, it's not broken.
It's not only unsympathetic, it's untrue.
I mean, the toe is the least of that person's worries. Yeah.
You've managed to find the only picture of somebody who hasn't broken their toe.
The poor person is going to wake up and they've just got somebody going,
"Great news is - wiggle them toes!"
I think the best clue is if you hear a loud snap,
that's usually... That's the best clue.
How does eating food help you get less drunk? It lines...mm.
Oh! Go on, Maisie! Go on, Maisie! Come on!
Maisie was going to say line your stomach. No!
KLAXON That's for you.
That's not me, that's for you.
What's Kate Middleton doing in the kitchen?
If you were there you'd go, "You need to take a look at yourself, love."
Yeah. She looks like... Eating a pizza, swigging...
Come on, Lee, that's your dream girl.
Anyway, here's the thing. When you drink alcohol,
it can enter your bloodstream one of two ways - either through your stomach or your small intestine.
The intestine obviously has a much larger surface area, so it absorbs alcohol much more quickly.
And which of these is going to end up doing the job
depends on what you have eaten.
So if you are full, the sphincter between your stomach
and your small intestine is closed and more of the work will be done
by your stomach, so a fatty meal
can reduce your peak alcohol concentration by 50%.
Never mind all that, we ordered olives - where are they?
So what's the right thing to eat?
You want to have something... It doesn't actually line your stomach,
it just keeps your stomach very busy
so that it can't get through to the intestine. Keeps it busy.
It's the same reason, darling that low-sugar mixers, you know,
like slimline tonics, you get drunk faster... I've never had a slimline tonic in my life.
Never been so insulted!
They get you drunk faster than normal mixers. Oh. Do they?
Yeah. So with a normal... I'll try it, then.
With a normal sugary mix, there's lots of calories to burn,
it keeps your stomach working and it keeps the alcohol away
from the intestines for longer.
In fact, it can put you over the limit on a breathalyser.
That's the difference.
Eating might help you slow how drunk you get, but it doesn't do it by soaking up the booze.
Helen of Troy had a face that launched how many ships?
Careful, Maisie. Oh, Maisie, what is it? Come on, Maisie.
I can't remember the number now. Help me out here, Maisie.
Oh, shall I do it? Maisie, I'll do it. A thousand.
KLAXON Yay!
But, at the time, there weren't a thousand ships in the world.
There weren't enough shipbuilders. Yeah, something like that.
There weren't any oceans. There were no such thing as... No-one had sailed anywhere.
LAUGHTER
No? None of those?
People rowed. They didn't launch ships.
They didn't have a slip thing. They didn't have the champagne bottle.
They would they would take the ship out a bit at a time.
She didn't have a face. She was faceless!
It's totally smooth and faceless like an AI robot.
The face that launched a thousand ships, it dates back to
a 1592 play, Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe
and it's a rounding down.
Homer's Iliad specifically says there were 1,186 ships
in the Greek fleet that sailed to Troy for the Trojan War.
Actually, there's lots of misconceptions about the Iliad.
It makes no mention of a wooden horse whatsoever.
That's actually referred to in The Odyssey, which is the sequel,
and then only in sort of flashback form.
And, of course, Helen of Troy was actually Helen of... Birmingham.
LAUGHTER
Sparta. She was actually Helen of Sparta.
That's why I won't read The Iliad. There's too many misconceptions.
Yes, there's too much stuff. It's like The Crown. Yeah. Yeah.
There were 1,186 ships in Homer's Iliad
and anyone who says it's 1,000 is almost 20% out.
Which brings us to the exact science of the scores.
Come on, not last. I'll take it. I'll be happy.
Losing the game and their lunch in last place, with minus 27...
..it's Maisie. Oh.
APPLAUSE
Feeling green around the gills in third place, with minus 15 is Jo!
APPLAUSE
On the road to recovery in second place, with minus three, it's Alan.
APPLAUSE
And in first place... Has that fuckwit won?
LAUGHTER
The eighth chunder of the world...
I don't think me and you as the Chuckle Brothers would work.
..with no points whatsoever... I'll take it. It's Lee! Yay!
APPLAUSE
Thanks to Maisie, Lee, Jo and Alan
and I leave you with this sickly sign off from the late, great
Ken Dodd. I just read a book about Stockholm syndrome.
It started off badly, but by the end, I really liked it. Good night.
APPLAUSE
