I honestly never heard of that one but I'm sure it's bop!

Do you want to swap?

Let's swap. Okay.

[upbeat music]

What city in Europe did I live in

for a year when I was younger?

Oh, my god. Berlin!

It's Germany, but that's not a city.

Wait, Berlin, right?

Cologne? Did you live in Cologne?

Berlin is not correct.

Paris? Did you live in Cologne?

It's Germany, though?

It is in Germany, it's not Cologne,

it's not Berlin. Shit!

Those are the only places I've been.

Munich!

Yes! Yeah!

I cannot believe this.

[bell dings]

It's the only place I knew.

I gotta think about this one.

Uh-oh.

Mean Girls movie?

Actually, I do have this.

It's not my fault you're like

in love with me or something

You go, Glen Coco.

I'd rather be me than be with you?

All good guesses, these are all incorrect.

You spoke.

Do you want me to give you a clue?

Yeah. Yes.

This line is not, oh, I dunno if I'm allowed to say this.

Go on.

This line is not in our movie.

Okay. It's in the 2004 movie.

Oh, motherfucker. Who says it?

Okay, Gretchen says it.

Oh, is it the Brutus and Caesar like monologue?

Yeah. Yes!

Wow! But what exact line?

We should all just totally

stab Caesar! Stab Caesar!

That's right, yeah. Okay, okay.

You get the point, you get the point.

Thank you, thank you. [bell dings]

I think that speech is so good.

It's really so.

It's a well delivered little monologue.

Yeah, okay, last question.

Is this worth two points?

I think this should be worth two points.

What are my two middle names?

Elizabeth? Rose?

Are you a Josephine though? Kate?

You're like sort of in the right realm with Elizabeth.

I don't know what the right answer is.

Maybe I'll just like accept all the compliments

and move on.

Oh, take that and run, bitch, yeah.

and need to be loved.

And I think that she and I are similar in that.
