Back when the pilots were flying knights and the triplanes were their trusty steeds..

Hello, Louis. You breed and raise dogs to fight as a gambling spectacle. Now, it's time for you to fight like a dog... for your life.

We have locked your hands into a set of... leather paw gloves and locked your head into a hood that will make you resemble a German Shepherd? ... Ah, christ.

GORDON! Get over here!

Look, I know Hoffman is a jackass, but you can't steal his kink gear to use in a trap. That stuff is expensive, and your little "doggy danger course" is going to ruin it. I don't care how you feel about what he does in his spare time, because we all extend you the same courtesy.

Need I remind you about the time you showed up for a Zoom meeting with your camera off? Your boyfriend wasn't exactly quiet.

Now go drug this guy unconscious again and take Hoffman's leathers off of him. I've got some hamburger meat in the fridge, and we can do a "which one has the poison" trap with that.

So, we all know the "I Want" song type – but what about the "I Wanted" song? A song where a character bitterly reflects on their former dreams, and they chastise themself for having been naive enough to believe they'd come true?

For instance:

I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables

Legally Blonde from Legally Blonde

Breathe from In the Heights

No Good Deed from Wicked

Pretty Funny from Dogfight

There's a Fine, Fine Line from Avenue Q

Flowers from Hadestown

What do y'all think?

EDIT: Just noticed that these are all sung by female characters. Anyone got any examples for a male character?

6am post about my username bc I've never talked about it before and I'm bored.

There's a 1991 film called Dogfight and it centers around a marine who's spending his last night stateside with his friends. He's meant to ship out the next morning for Vietnam.

"The rules of the Dogfight were simple. Everyone puts in fifty bucks, and the guy with the ugliest "date" wins."

Eddie (the marine) brings Rose (daughter of a cafe owner) to the dogfight with the rest of his friends and their "dates". She ends up finding out about the game and it's rules and storms off. Eddie wins some money because Rose threw up in the bathroom.

Eddie spends the rest of the night trying to make it up to her, even going so far as to ditch his friends, and the two end up falling in love. Rose asks Eddie to write her, but he never does because he doesn't want his friends to find out. When the occupation ends, Eddie doesn't return home to his parents, no. He goes straight back to Rose, who is now the owner of her mothers cafe.

The word "Dogfight" refers to a close range aircraft fight. The modern term is much less fascinating and is just referred to as "maneuvering".

There was also a musical that ran shortly, based off of the film.
