*spoiler*
The irony in Sutherland’s character telling Yo-Yo, a black woman, she’s not “expensive” like the black men around her. She’s just “a dime a dozen”. And how Fontaine and Slick talk to her at times as well. “Just a regular ol’ ho.” But she’s smart, the first one ready to protect her community/almost killed for it, and her kidnapping sparked the whole underground takeover. Kind of “the face that launched a thousand ships”-ish?
Sounds expensive, priceless even, and worth protecting.

KNOWING THE DIFFERENCE
Summary: Yo-yo's sister gets dragged into the Three Stooges mess when they come to her grandma house running from trouble.
Tumblr media
Warnings: none
✏️✏️✏️
Ressee loved to sleep. It was one of the only times she ever truly felt peace. So naturally she hated whenever something or someone woke her up. It always made her heart beat a mile a minute and feel slightly confused.
When Ressee fell asleep tonight she was, once again, at peace. She had been sleeping good when she heard knocking on her window. She sat up quickly, heart racing, trying to figure out what the hell was going on.
The knocking came again. Ressee hopped out of bed making her way towards the window. She looked out to see her sister, Slick Charles, and Fontaine outside. All three looked like they had seen a ghost.
She quickly ushered them in. Watching as they all climbed in the window one by one, she looked out to make sure the coast was clear and then she closed it back.
"When y'all change the locks on the front door?" Yo yo whispered.
"This morning." Ressee told her as she handed her the new key. "But what the fuck y'all got going on?"
Ressee looked the three up and down, making sure to glare at Slick Charles.
"Fuck you looking at me like that for?"
"I can look at you however I wanna look at you."
"Nah, you mother-"
"Both of yall shut up before you wake up Grandmama!" Yo yo whisper shouted to the two bickering idiots. Slick Charles and her sister always have had problems with each other. For good reason too, but now wasn't the time for them to argue.
"Fuck what they talking bout, when we going back to that underground lab?" Fontaine asked, anxious to get back to the lab he saw himself dead in.
"In the morning, Taine. We gotta lay low for the rest of the night."
Ressee looked at her sister like she was crazy.
"Underground lab? Y'all niggas high?"
"This don't pertain to your Kermit The Frog as-"
"Shut the fuck up Limp Di-"
"Both of you shut up! Look the underground lab is a lab underground that we got to through a secret elevator in a house and it had a buncha weird powdery shit that made us laugh and a weird looking white black man and a dead Fontaine who really isn't Fontaine because Fontaine is right here with us!" Yo yo rambled off, her shoulders sagging in relief when she was finished.
Ressee looked at the two men to see if they believed anything her sister had just said just to see they were already looking at her expectantly. She sighed. She wanted to believe that this was some coked up idea Slick Charles and Yo yo had come up with, but Fontaine didn't look high. His eyes were just slightly wide. So everything her sister said must've been somewhat true. It was just so hard to belive though.
"First of all, what is a white black man?"
"After everything she just told you, that's your first question?" Slick shook his head in disbelief.
"He was white but had an afro." Yo yo said while eyeing Fontaine who had started pacing the floor.
"I'm Fontaine. I ain't dead."
The night's events still had him on edge. His thoughts were racing a mile a minute.
"Taine chill. We'll go back in the morning to check it out." Yo yo lead him towards the bed. Ressee was going to protest him sleeping in her bed, but decided against it. He needed it more than her if she was to believe their tale.
"I'll go with y'all. Ya know, to make sure."
All three of them looked up at her.
"Yea the more the merrier." Slick grumbled and she rolled her eyes at him.
End of part 1

This will definitely rank as one of the most underrated gems of the year. It seems to have been lost among the shuffle of bigtime summer blockbusters. Netflix has a genuine hit for anyone looking outside the mainstream cinema fun.
It blends some genres together with near perfection. You could classify it as a comedy, a thriller, and a sci-fi adventure all rolled into one movie. John Boyega stars as Fontaine, a small town drug dealer mixed up with the wrong crowds. After he visits Slick Charles (Jamie Foxx) and is shot and left for dead, Fontaine wakes up in his bed as though nothing had happened.
The mystery that surrounds this plot is rather simple, but the way it is presented is what keeps you invested in these characters. Foxx is hilarious, as is Teyonah Paris, in a supporting role. Boyega plays off of them well as the hardened type who, after learning the truth, desperately wants answers.
There is a ton of political and social commentary about how we are being manipulated by the mass media and product consumption. This film takes a lot of conspiracy theories and rolls them up to make a wild and whacky film about cultural exploitation.
Tumblr media
What it does well is remind you that while there is all this existential stuff happening, the core three are grounded in the reality they have been living. They truly have zero clue what the scope of this thing is until they are smack right in the middle of it. That is where the talent really shines through from the three actors. The comedy continues, but some major character growth also occurs, which allow all of them all the chance to shine.
It is a very engaging movie from start to finish. You can watch it and enjoy it for the various things it does. It provides comedic commentary on some poignant social issues, and it also gives you an adult R Rated mystery vibe as the core three constantly remind us "They are not detectives."

quick question: Are all the white people with afros meant to be black folk in later stages of the assimilation, or am i thinking too deeply, and it is just a bit ?

Max really walked into the cool down room, looked around, realised the guy in the red suit was not Charles Leclerc 16, briefly despaired the lack of his favourite listener then shrugged his shoulders and decided since he was there he could as well talk to Carlos instead. Then he proceeded to talk in excruciating detail about what happened to Charles with Carlos, because Charles may be missing but Max has one goal and that is to talk about Charles with anyone willing (read: contractually forbidden from fleeing the scene) to listen.
I may be obsessed, but Max has me beat.

So I’m thinking about the They Cloned Tyrone and Nope crossover thing I proposed and like I imagine the Haywoods finding out about that clone shit via the news and the cloning facility is probably exposed in California as well (where Tyrone lives) and I kind of want to go the route where Jean Jacket is an extraterrestrial that was being studied and followed by the government to learn its behavior but they didn’t interfere with the Haywood’s or Jupe and they were actually planning on the Haywood’s getting eaten by Jean Jacket and then sweeping it under the rug but didn’t actually think that the Haywood’s were smart of enough to take Jean Jacket down. And that they also had like some super expensive super secret government non electrical equipment and stealth protocols so that Jean Jacket didn’t catch them watching it. Also they purposely let Jupe and the guests get eaten because it was a way to get rid of witnesses and study Jean Jacket.
But since these movies don’t have a specific year but do take place in modern day, I’d like to propose that the Clone facility got exposed not long after The Haywood’s captured Jean Jacket on photo but their story more or less got swept under the rug and silenced because the cloning facility had way more physical evidence and the government, in order to save a little more face, still try to attempt to hide the proof of extraterrestrials so they claim that The Haywood’s photo is fake and doctored and make up some fake proof and say that the disappearance of the Jupe’s Claim guests is due to something else.
So where do the main three from TCT come in ? Completely accidental. They’re on their way to Memphis and Yo-Yo and Fontaine let Slick Charles drive so that they can catch up on some sleep and Slick Charles completely ignores the GPS and takes them all sorts of wrong ways and they end up all the way in Agua Dulce and their car just conveniently breaks down not far from the Haywood ranch.
So they walk until they get to Haywood Ranch and knock on the door for help and Emerald lets them in and recognizes them from the news, or better yet, recognizes Slick Charles and Fontaine from the news because she saw their clones and Yo-Yo does state that they indeed did that shit.
Emerald convinces OJ to ask them for help exposing extraterrestrials and shows them the picture of Jean Jacket and they even get Angel to testify for them because they know that the government is trying to cover what they went through up.
And for some reason the TCT trio helps them out because if there’s dangerous aliens out there eating people and the government is willingly sacrificing people for the sake of studying them, then the world needs to know.
I gotta work out the kinks but I think it could come along nicely

KNOWING THE DIFFERENCE
Summary: Yo-yo's sister gets dragged into the Three Stooges mess when they come to her grandma house running from trouble.
Tumblr media
Yo yo was trippin. That's the only way Ressee could describe her sister in this moment. She was pacing the floor in worry over where Fontaine went. Because he had dipped out while everyone was sleep.
"Calm down, I'm sure he's fine." Ressee tried to reassure her sister.
"Do not tell me to calm down right now." Yo yo warned. "They could've got to him."
Ressee looked over to Slick Charles to see him silently agreeing.
"We talking about the underground lab people?"
"Yes." Slick and Yo said in unison.
"Why are they after him?" Just as she was asking the question a knock came from the door.
The three sat there looking. The knocking came again, but this time with a voice.
"Yo yo, y'all in there?"
Ressee watched as her sister let out a sigh of relief at Fontaine's gruff voice. She quickly went to the door to let him in, quickly pulling him through the door. With a quick look outside she slammed the door shut.
"This shit is so fucked up y'all. Everything's gone." He grumbled when Yo yo came back to the kitchen.
"What you mean?" Slick asked. Everyone sat quietly as Fontaine explained how him and his homeboys went back to the underground lab, only to find out that it was gone.
No elevator.
Nothing.
Slick and Yo yo went into a frenzy.
A lot of yelling happened. Some 'what the fucks' and 'maybe we were high' went around as the three relied to figure out what was going on. Ressee just sat quietly as it all happened.
Because, frankly, she was still confused. She had no idea what was going on or what to do. So she just watched as it all played out.
"Wait, wait, y'all think about it. This what them secret government niggas do. They make shit disappear."
"Yea yea that's true. " Slick agreed with Yo yo.
Resse figured if this underground lab was real and was cleaned up by the government then another one must be around somewhere.
"Well they gotta have another one somewhere, right? I doubt they just had one 'round this mfer."
All three looked over at the girl.
"You right, sis. My girl Nancy, would've said the same thing."
Part 3 coming next
But ngl..I'm still tryna figure out where the hell I'm going with this story 💀
