#but hey that post credits scene 👀👀

[thatseventiesbitch]

Welcome back to another installment of That '70s Show original scripts - this time we're looking at S2xE23 "Holy Crap!"

Special shoutout to my hubby, who put this in my stocking for Christmas 😘 (The cast signatures are a reprint, but still very cool!!) There were not a ton of changes to this episode, but as always, read on for my summary.

The first change is this cut line from Eric after Red's story about his destroyer going down during the war. Eric (feebly) starts a comeback, but decides against it. 🤣

The next cut moment is Eric talking to God on the driveway when he and Laurie decide to ditch church. Also: 😂

The dialogue between the guys in the next scene at The Hub is slightly different, though the scene ends up in the same place:

The ending of this scene is different. After Kitty tells them "if you want to spend eternity doing laps in a lake of fire, that's your choice!", Red tells the kids their mother is right. And that they should sit down and watch the Brewers game and think about it. 😂

There are two small changes in this scene: Eric's cut line - "Hey, you're both right" - and Donna calling Kelso 'Michael' 😵‍💫

This cut line was funny - after Hyde's eloquent rant about his views on organized religion and why he doesn't participate/attend church, Eric says, "Yeah, that's what I meant. That and the tie thing."

There is this cut (mini) Eric/Donna moment: Bob thinks Eric should be at church, confessing to his dirty, dirty sins. 😂 His comment annoys Donna.

And this one, too! Donna says 'hi' to Eric when they get to heaven 😂🥰

Red and Kitty's conversation here is a little different. Kitty says Eric is 'living like a rock star' because he's sleeping with the next door neighbor and not going to church *lmao*. Red seems to disagree - he has a cut line about Eric being seventeen, and starting to make his own decisions.

In the Circle, Eric continues to freak out/disassociate. 🤣

Then there's this cut moment between Donna and Jackie 👀

Jackie makes it clear she's not taking/hearing Donna's well-intentioned advice to avoid Kelso after he's cheated on her, and claims "now she has to go sleep with him". Donna calls her "dumb - and not regular dumb, like cheerleader dumb".

(I'm personally glad this exchange was cut. Both the Jackie sleeping with Kelso line, and Donna's comment - although I can understand her frustration!)

Finally, there are two short cut scenes at the end.

In the episode, the last scene is in the Forman living room. Kitty excitedly yells, "Ha! C'mon everybody, the Formans are going to church!"

In the script, the next scene cuts to the Formans and Pinciottis in church, presumably right after that.

Then there's this cut Leo/Pastor Dave duet, which was supposed to be the credits scene.

I feel robbed!!! I want to see these two characters singing Godspell, damnit! 🤣😂

That's all she wrote, folks! Thanks for reading along for another one with me, your host, @thatseventiesbitch 😊

~ Fangs♥︎ with Lucifer ~

DeviantArt artist; Origarnic

"No."

"Aww please, Luci! Just this once! Lemme help you."

How did we get here? Well...

*flashback*

You were walking down the hall of the house to go get Lucifer. He usually is already here for breakfast but he's late. You opened the door to check out on him but you saw quite a scene.

Broken toothbrushes...what the— Lucifer started to groan at the frustration. He kept breaking the toothbrush. If only the fangs weren't so damn hard to clean! He usually wakes up early to brush his teeth or was just completely awake the whole night. He overslept today though.

"Hey, Luci. Need some help?" Trying to hold back a chuckle at his glare with his messy state. "No, I am perfectly fine! I can do this alone."

"Says the one who has so many broken toothbrushes in the trash-can, Dear."

"...."

*end of flashback*

Version 1;

Lucifer is sitting on your lap, opening his mouth for you. Holding tight on your shoulders so he doesn't fall. He looks down to see you carefully brushing his teeth so his fangs don't poke you.

Lucifer mind was a mess. He should've just done this by himself. But he'll be late and it's not like this is harming or anything....well at least not directly to you. His teeth are sensitive and— oh Diavolo.

He grabbed your wrist, saying that it's enough. He went off your lap and went to the bathroom to fix his hair. He eventually let you do it when it's necessary. Not like he's gonna purposely overslept or maybe lie about it for you to do it—

"Wow, I guess this is part of my daily routine hm?"

Although his words were muffled you knew he just said to shut your mouth. After you were done, he tried to get off until you picked him up but accidentally by his ass....you got one of a hell flustered Lucifer scolding you. Well, at least you found a new side of him, hooray!

Version 2;

You were sitting on his lap, Lucifer opening his mouth. He looked at you seeing you being so careful not to poke yourself with his fangs.

He looked away trying to focus on something else. Although he accidentally scooted you closer unconsciously. You teased him that for the rest of the day.

As same as version 1, he lets you do this when it's necessary and sometimes 'overslept' for you to clean his teeth and fangs.

After you were done you kissed his forehead. His breath hitched and he scooted away and left. Later of course he confronted you and perhaps scolded you. His pride could never admit he liked it.

°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°

"Bite me."

"What?" Lucifer just sat there, bewildered. Why on hell would you want him to bite you?

"What? It's the same thing as leaving your scratch marks on my back—" (sometimes he ain't careful with those sharp nails but still a slay. 💅✨️✨️)

He covered your mouth. His face was so red! You grabbed both of his wrists and. Pinned him onto the wall.

"Also its similar with the marks you made."

You showed the marks he made from last night under your turtle neck. "You were so possessive, You kept saying I'm yours but I don't mind." You smirked seeing him squirming, trying to get out of your grip. Oh this was going to be a long night

Or, since I don't think (no offense I swear) most girls are tall enough 👀💧 I'm trying to make a male and female together so it's not only 1 gender to enjoy :) even though it doesn't specifically use pro nouns I think

You cornered him and grabbed his tie, and pushed his shoulder down to make him on his knees. You showed him the marks under the turtle neck. "My, my. I didn't think you'd be embarrassed. You had done this many times, haven't you?" You chuckled and his flustered state. This is gonna be quite a night

*later*

"Hey, why are you guys covered in bandages?" Solomon asked. You smiled and looked at Lucifer. You pulled down the bandages to make him see the bite marks he had made. As Lucifer scolded you Solomon is standing there, thinking yall are cannibals— just kidding.

Another Version

You walked up to Lucifer and pulled down his bandages. "You look so pretty my love♥︎" you whispered, landing a kiss on his neck. Before he can react, you were already gone.

~ Fangs♥︎ with Zhongli ~

With a little surprise person 🤭

Twitter artist; lavelis_twi

There are 2 because I didn't know if he would have snake-like fangs or maybe just fangs

Honestly, you were bored. Zhongli is a great company for you to play with! You can play with his hair, he doesn't mind. You can outline the marks on his arm (maybe other places too)

You happily walked to his house and knocked on it.

*knock*

No awnser.

*knock*

Still no awnser.

*knock*,, *knock*

Silence...

Weird. He usually comes out at the first knock. Is he perhaps not here? Well he did give me an extra copy sooo,,

Yeah. You went in. You walked to the door of the bedroom

"Zhongli? My love? Oh, my most beautiful gem? Darling? Hello??"

As you said that in front of the bedroom door, Zhongli comes out. If you have seen a little closer, you would've seen a red flush on the tip of his ears. I wonder why.

As his face looked panicked and worried, not because of the mess. More like because he never told you about his fangs and thought you would be scared or weirded out of it. (You guys haven't kissed mouth to mouth yet. So that's why he thought you haven't seen it.)

"Ah, sorry for not answering the door. I was...busy"

"Yeah...I can see that."

As you peeked over him to see broken toothbrushes on the ground. Although you didn't tell him that you knew about his fangs. You saw it when he yelled at Childe for not knowing how to use chopsticks properly and using them in a cursed way. He shut his eyes, waiting for you to answer or even for you to run away.

"Want some help Zhongli?"

His eyes perked up at you, surprised at your response.

"Yes, it would be delightful to get some help."

Version 1;

As he sat on your lap, hands slithering around your neck to your shoulders to stay steady. He opened his mouth wide, his fangs are similar to snake teeth but a bit thicker. Very sharp that it could poke through the toothbrush.

'This feels...quite pleasant.' As he thought he didn't notice you called out for him until you tapped on his thigh. His breath hitched and he looked down to see you. "A- ah...is there something wrong?" You swear you saw his face flushing red. But first, you need to solve a problem.

"Why is Childe beside us, Zhongli?"

Oh. He forgot to tell you.

"Well, since we both wanted you. We decided to...share."

Childe peaked at you and whispered, 'surprise!'

You sighed as you ruffled Childe's hair.

"[Name]!~ can you brush my teeth too—"

"No. Maybe later but I already have enough trouble dealing with one troublemaker."

Well at least he can get his turn tomorrow

Version 2;

As you sat on his lap, he began slithering his hands on your waist. Making sure you're comfortable. It felt so heavenly that he could just sleep right there.

"Hey, I'm done."

He opened his eyes to see you furrow your brows. He felt he forgot to tell you something.

"Why is Childe here, behind me."

Childe eyes went wide, surprised. He swears he hid so well in the corner though!

"We decided to share since we both...like you."

Before Childe could speak, you spoke what was on his mind.

"No, Childe. I'm not gonna brush your teeth too. Maybe tomorrow but not right now."

You were already in a bad mood that you did not know anything until now. At least you have two happy boyfriends tomorrow.

°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°

"Bite me."

"Are you sure? I could hurt you." Zhongli is more considerate but still careful.

"Oh? But then you don't need to be on my side to make sure everyone knows I'm taken, hmm?"

The tip of his ears started to get red as he looked down. His legs are getting weak just by your words.

"Hey, what about me?" Childe said, looking at you with puppy eyes. I guess adding one more person won't hurt.

Ganyu began to worry, "are you guys ok? Who hurt you?!" You assured her, although you can't just tell her—

As you speak, a child accidentally tripped and the bucket of water spilled on you three. You guys are soaked, and the bandages are see-through too. Ganyu became flustered as she saw bite marks on the three of you. She excused herself and left. Great, now I don't think Ganyu can talk to you for a bit now.

Scaling Up in India's E-commerce Boom: Tech Troubles 📈📱🛒

Hey Tumblrinas! Ever tried snagging that must-have phone during a Flipkart sale, only to find the site's crashed? 💥 Or maybe you've experienced the IRCTC website's slow-mo during tatkal ticket booking? 😴 Yep, that's the not-so-glamorous side of India's booming e-commerce scene.

As more of us ditch brick-and-mortar stores for the convenience of online shopping, these platforms are struggling to keep up. 🤯 It's like trying to fit an elephant in a Mini Cooper – it just ain't gonna work!

So, what's the problem? 🧐

Tech Troubles Galore:

Slow & Steady (NOT) Wins the Race: When millions of shoppers hit a website at once, it can feel like trying to download a movie on dial-up. 🐌 Nobody's got time for that! Slow load times = lost sales. 📉

The Database Dilemma: Imagine a giant library with NO organization. That's what it's like for e-commerce platforms trying to manage tons of product info, customer data, and orders. It's a mess!

Hacker Havoc: With online shopping comes the risk of cyberattacks. Imagine your credit card info getting swiped while you're trying to buy those cute shoes. No thanks! 🙅‍♀️

The Bottom Line:

Scaling up is tough! 😫 As more and more of us shop online, e-commerce platforms need to step up their tech game. That means faster websites, better data management, and top-notch security.

Stay tuned for more posts in this series where I'll spill the tea on other e-commerce challenges in India. 👀

Danganronpa 3 Despair arc episode 11

Thonks.

The overseas expansion was cancelled.

It's werid to see Juzo and Munakata here, after... Everything.

And he lied to Munakata.

"She's been my favourite suspect" who are you, L?

It does suck that he believed Juzo and Chisa because he trusts them so much that it didn't even cross his mind that they would ever betray him.

I mean you are right Juzo, when this is over she's a dead woman.

That is true.

Imagine he went hmm it's not Junko...hey doesn't she have a sister 👀??? Could be her.

That would be a fun twist.

Oh... I think he knew.

Awh Izuru kept Chiaki's clip.

It feels so wrong seeing them all in class with Chisa.

Idk why Junko calling Mukuro a whore caught me by surprise.

Ayy the return of the Jason Freddy chainsaw.

Chisa reading a letter as the school and the world fall apart around em, fitting.

I know this is fucked by Gundam saying that they were always his true friends, even as a despair is just sweet.

I appreciate the legal framework we're working with here.

Ah so that's why no one remembers Izuru.

Everyone but the 78th class.

"My apologises I was trying to use my daughters Detective skills."

Awh.

So than this leads to Makoto's killing game.

I love that Junko texted everyone... oh it was the fucked up brainwash Monokuma theater tape, nevermind.

Yess, I love that Junko knows from the beginning Makoto will be an obstacle.

Lucky boi.

Confirmation Makoto's luck isn't like Nagito's.

His comes and goes at random, it's unpredictable.

I've been saying this but I'm glad that it's confirmed.

Oh don't worry Junko that "loser" will be the one to destroy your plans, and it'll be so despair inducing you could just die for it.

"So... This is it. I'm not entirely what you should say at a time like this. I guess Happy Graduation."

Great speech Nagito.

Wow despaired Chisa played Munakata like a cheap kuzoo.

And the class rep party photo getting burned.

Post credit scene... Binary? Ohh it's the simulation.

Right where Nagito and Hajime meet Chiaki.

Nice.

Hey

Favourite swift songs lyrics from midnight are..??

Hi hi! Wow, it’s been so long since I’ve last had an ask, let alone related our mother Taylor Swift!

This is a tricky question; a lot of songs are SO good, as well as the bridges! So, I’m just gonna settle to giving a lyric for each track (3am edition 👀) because why not 🤷‍♀️ (and this post would’ve been waaay too long if given explanations, so I’m just gonna leave it to comments and keep this brief gjdhdksgg)

Lavender Haze

Surreal, I’m damned if I do give a damn what people say

Talk your talk and go viral // I just need this love spiral

Maroon

Pretty much the whole chorus

Anti-Hero

I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser

It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero

Snow On The Beach (feat. Lana Del Rey)

Life is emotionally abusive

And it’s like snow at the beach // weird but fuckin’ beautiful

You’re On Your Own, Kid

I didn’t choose this town // I dream of getting out

Midnight Rain

He wanted a bride // I was making my own name

Question…?

But one thing after another // fuckin’ situations, circumstances // miscommunications and I

Vigilante Shit

I don’t dress for women // I don’t dress for men // lately, I’ve been dressing for revenge

Bejeweled

Did all the extra credit then got graded on a curve // I think it’s time to teach some lessons

Labyrinth

Breathe in, breathe through // breathe deep, breathe out

Lost in the labyrinth of my mind

Karma

Ask me what I learned from all those years // ask me what I earned from all those tears // ask me why so many fade, but I’m still here

Sweet Nothing

All that you ever wanted from me was sweet nothing

Mastermind

Strategy sets the scene for the tale

The Great War

Somewhere in the haze, got a sense I’d been betrayed

Bigger Than The Whole Sky

So I’ll say words I don’t believe

Paris

Confess my truth in swooping, sloping, cursive letters

High Infidelity

You know there’s many different ways that you can kill the one you love // the slowest way is never loving them enough

Glitch

Depending on what kind of mood and situation-ship I’m in

Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve

And now that I’m grown // I’m scared of ghosts // memories feel like weapons

Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts // give me back my girlhood // it was mine first

Dear Reader

I prefer hiding in plain sight

No one sees when you lose // when you’re playing solitaire

Seri’s brother: She’s dead

Seung-Joon, staring right at her: 👁👄👁 Dead?

Me: finishes one of three PowerPoints I need to catch up on

Also me: I think I deserve some CLOY

[viscountessevie]

do you think that cvd/ shondaland lowkey expected Ruby to be like flo and will and only work/ film bridgerton and be at their back and call? bc age-wise she was always grouped with them even tho she’s 7yr older (other sib were all in their late 20s/30s - so they HAD to give them something almost bc they wouldve been disinterested/ would look elsewhere) whereas ruby was in a weird limbo place in between place age/ work credit/ experience wise.

Bc they gave her literally no material and girl can act and i feel like thats why she looked elsewhere for more promising roles/ screen time! bc her films almost all of them were really well recieved/ well acted (e.g una/ rocks/ a banquet - not as big as the other two/ some love-hate reception)

i think they underestimated the actor/ her ambition, thus all this misfortune unfolded! And shondAland doesnt look good when it comes to actors sudden departure - despite her other work obligations... bc we all know shondaland has a big/ bad history with power struggles, particularly ones that dif in opinion with shonda rhimes!

also really appreciated ur take on the weird famdom reacrion about the frannie recast situation and ur defense of the actors! lowkey read my mind woth every post/ question!

Hey Anon thank you so much for this thoughtful ask!

I can definitely see that happening! Shondaland/CVD probably expected that when they casted the kiddos that they'll have the "Be grateful for this opportunity it will open doors for you once we are done" mindset.

I think Will and Flo, being their age and due to child labour laws in the industry, have limits on how many hours they can work so they could focus only on Bridgerton.

While Ruby is 20 (18 when she filmed S1 if I'm not wrong) so she had more flexibility with her time to do two productions at the same time. Also they weren't giving her scenes so of course she's going to seek other roles as well where she can showcase her talents!

You're so right about her films being well received! That's why I had to watch them when I found out about them. Speaking of, if you or anyone who sees this post have links to Ruby's films please do send them my way! I got an ask about that and am trying to compile a list of legal or otherwise links for people to watch her stuff while we wait for Lockwood and Co to air. I need people to see her starpower! (Lol of course Banquet had mixed reactions, horror always does but I liked it and usually horror scares me ahahah)

Also I'm sure her contract and agents were all in open communications with the Bridgerton team beforehand so either productions could have easily shifted around their schedules to accommodate her role for the respective seasons. Bridgerton moreso than the indie films cos it's a mainstream show and Shondaland is at the helm. They definitely have more power within the industry between the two productions Ruby was in for both seasons and could have given some leeway for Ruby to come and film Fran's storyline in S2.

As for the actors leaving, you're so so right! Shondaland has a l o n g history of blacklisting people who dare stand up against the higher ups and also having toxic work environments on set (See: Katherine Heigl and Greys 👀) so maybe it's for the best Ruby got out when she did. I only hope the Lockwood executive team treats her and the rest of the cast and crew better!

Lastly, thanks so much for the appreciation anon! It means a lot cos I've been starting feeling like I'm in the vocal minority advocating for Ruby as Frannie while trying to be fair on Hannah. Even saw a couple of pointed vagueposting anons about some of my and some friends' posts. I've been trying not to let it get to me but I promise most of the info I've been writing in my posts are based on my experiences and what I've learnt from film school. And hey once I'm in the industry and some stuff are wrong I'll gladly eat my words. But for now we'll never know what happened behind the scenes and we can only speculate based on what we know!

So all in all, I'm glad you liked my posts and I was able to provide opinions that voiced out some of your thoughts on the whole recasting ordeal :)

[thatseventiesbitch]

Welcome back to another installment of That '70s Show original script analysis! This week we'll be looking at the season two finale, S2xE26 "Moon Over Point Place". There are not a ton of changes, but there are a few cut moments for the Zennies 🥰 (the episode was written by the Filgos, after all).

The first piece of cut dialogue is between Donna and Kelso in the first scene, after Donna calls out Jackie's burn of Kelso.

Next we have this whole missing scene (!!) between Eric, Donna, and Timmy. It immediately follows their scene at The Hub, where Timmy starts chanting "Hey everybody - Donna showed her ass!"

Timmy asks Donna to sign her butt picture in the year book, and Donna does - with a funny quip. But Eric doesn't see the humor in it and is feeling sorry for himself. He makes his "This is the worst ______ ever" joke, which is apparently a Charlie Brown reference

Then we have a small but I think significant and interesting change: in the scene where Jackie approaches Hyde later in the Hub, she originally called him Hyde but in the episode that aired called him Steven. 👀

There's some stage direction that is cut from the episode at the end of that scene. Notice the interaction Hyde and Timmy were supposed to have. Hyde was supposed to bully him, essentially, and steal his food.

So - Timmy had a larger role in the overall episode before certain parts were cut. That's important later...

Eric and Donna's dialogue in their final scene on the driveway is slightly different at the end. Eric insists that he "loves the nudity" and Donna calls him "Prudalicious" 😂🤣

In the next scene, there's a very interesting line change for Jackie.

In the original script she says she got the bag of pot by stealing it from her dad's stash. In the episode that ultimately aired, she said she bought it from her housekeeper. 👀

Hyde's explanation to the cop is different in the script, too. In the actual episode, all he said was "What are you doing man? The bag is mine. C'mon - cheerleader, dirtbag..." In the script, he still encourages the cop to compare he and Jackie, but uses different reasoning.

And after the cop walks Hyde away, Jackie has this cut line 🥺. It was supposed to be a fairly emotional moment.

And then we have this cut line from Laurie in the final moment, when Hyde calls Red from jail.

Finally - remember their classmate, Timmy? His participation in the final "booty shake" circle during the credits makes more sense with the full context of the original episode. He played a bigger role initially, and had more substantive interactions with both Donna and Hyde. (This might seem obvious, but I remember arguing quite a bit with the friend I originally watched That '70s Show with when we first saw this episode! We couldn't agree about who the extra butt was. 😂 Mystery solved. It's definitely Timmy.)

That's a wrap on S2xE26! Thanks for reading with me, your host, @thatseventiesbitch and stay tuned for more 😘
