Sep. 8th, 2024 05:48 pmahahaha I finally placed the mystery quote from a couple weeks ago
...so I went with a friend to see local production of J&H
(which I was OBSESSED with back in the late 90s, particularly the recording with Anthony Warlow)
and afterwards I was a) ranting about how the change from intellectual curiosity to fixing his father makes a stupid plot hole, because "I'm fascinated with good and evil, therefore my life project is creating a serum to separate good from evil" makes so much more sense than "My dad is catatonic, therefore my life project is creating a serum to separate good from evil", wtf; maybe if his dad had been a serial killer and he was like "but I know he's good deep inside" there would be a connection? and b) talking about the songs that were dropped
and so I was playing my friend some of the AW-version songs, and bam
Welp. Mystery solved :D I still have no idea why it popped into my head, since it's been a while since I've listened, but my brain works in mysterious ways

[UTTERSON, spoken] I can't, Henry...
[JEKYLL, spoken] We promised... remember?
